I was fucked by Zheng Ge as soon as I crossed over

The spring morning wind is still bitingly cold.

Agu didn't dare to stop for a moment. He ran all the way to a nearby farmhouse, led out the horse that had been left there for care, and rode out.

The sound of horse hooves breaks through the morning mist.

Agu's figure flashed by on the mountain forest path, attracting the attention of the early risers at the fork in the road.

Soon, a man and a horse appeared at the gate of the county town.

Outside the city gate, the sparse queue was not long, mostly made up of nearby farmers who got up early and came to sell vegetables.

Agu's eyes swept across the team and he quickly found his target among the crowd - an old man carrying a basket and a cloth wrapped around his head.

This old man was no different from other people, except that in his basket were two wooden sticks, one long and one short.

“Whoa—”

Agu tightened the reins in his hand and shouted "stop", but the horse ran straight towards the old man.

"Ouch, horse, why did you hit me!" The old man staggered after being hit by the horse's head. He cursed but did not dare to move forward. Instead, he shrank back into the crowd.

Someone in the queue next to him couldn't stand it and shouted, "Hey man, hold your horse tight. If you hit someone, the officer will put you in jail."

"Yeah, move away quickly..."

The noise gradually grew louder and soon attracted the attention of the guards who were checking everyone's photos at the city gate.

Agu's face suddenly darkened, and he glared at the old man angrily. He untied the cloth bag from his waist and threw it at the old man's feet. He sighed angrily, "Take it away, and don't make trouble anymore!"

The old man picked up the cloth bag at his feet and kept bending over to thank the people around him.

When the onlookers saw that Agu had already paid the money, they stopped paying any attention to him and turned around, waiting for the prison guards to check.

A small ripple quickly dissipated into nothingness.

It just barely caught the attention of a group of brothers at the back of the team. The two of them looked at each other and decided to act separately later.

The gatekeepers were very efficient and it didn't take long before the people who had been queuing had already entered the city.

At dawn, Yewang County was not yet completely bustling.

Agu led the horse, slowed down his pace, and came to a stall selling breakfast.

The stall wasn't big, but it was packed with diners. The steaming steamers and bubbling pots of bone broth filled the air with an alluring aroma.

Agu tied up his horse by the roadside, dusted himself off, pulled out a stool, sat down, and called out, "Four meat buns and a bowl of bone soup."

"Okay, please wait a moment, diners~" The stall owner was a thin uncle with a simple smile on his face. His hands were moving non-stop. He quickly took out four plump meat buns from the steamer, scooped a bowl of steaming bone soup, and placed it steadily in front of Agu.

Agu took a bite of the bun, and the delicious juice spread in his mouth. He narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming to enjoy it very much.

Just then, the conversation between two diners at the next table came into his ears.

"Have you heard? His Majesty has started his tour again." A man in coarse linen clothes said with a frown.

Another, slightly fatter guest chimed in, "That's right. Last year, His Majesty toured the country and found so many great things along the way. Every county along the way has found a new way to make money. Now it's the turn of the people in the south to benefit."

"Yeah..." The man in the coarse cloth sighed enviously, "It's a pity that they didn't pass through our county last time, otherwise, we could have shared in some of their good fortune."

Amidst the casual conversation, Agu finished his breakfast. When the boss came to collect the money, he asked, "Where are you going so early?"

Agu laughed innocently and replied casually, "My brother was injured while hunting in the mountains. Fortunately, he was rescued by the Master in the mountains. I was just about to go buy some gifts to send up the mountain to thank the Master and his family."

"Then you can go to the Zhouji Grocery Store in the west. They sell tools that imitate those made by the Daqin Workshop. They're cheap and easy to use."

"Oh, I see. I'll go there right away. Thank you, store owner."

As he spoke, Agu clasped his fist towards the stall owner, jumped on his horse, and headed west along the street.

After seeing Agu off, the stall owner quickly picked up the empty bowls on the table. A gleam in his eyes flashed, and while putting the bowls down, he quickly said a few words to the boy who was stoking the fire. The boy nodded repeatedly, got up and ran out of the street.

After walking two or three times like this, Agu strolled along the way, delivering letters as he went, until evening, when he returned with a lot of bags.

That night, several forces gathered in Yewang County received news that a capable person was living in seclusion in the deep mountains outside the city. All parties were eager to take action and waited for dawn to go into the mountains to investigate.

However, what puzzled the Black Armored Guards was that the old man at the city gate was just like an ordinary farmer, quietly selling wild vegetables and fruits. Even until nightfall, he did not show any unusual movement.

After staring at him for three days, the black-armored guards withdrew from his side, thinking that the other party had indeed run into Agu by chance and no longer wasted time on him.

"How's it going? Have you all retreated?"

In the dilapidated farmyard, the old man worked tirelessly, head down, weaving the basket in his hands. His voice no longer had the vicissitudes and humbleness he had at the city gate.

The young man who was sorting hay in front of him raised his head and looked at the old man: "Everyone retreated, brother, how did they find us?"

The old man said nothing and just kept weaving the basket.

After a long time, so long that the young man thought the old man would not answer, the old man raised his upper body and glanced sharply outside the courtyard gate.

He put down the half-woven basket in his hand and said in a clear but sharp voice, "Agu has been exposed. That person is probably under the surveillance of the Qin army."

Hearing this, the young man clenched his fists anxiously.

"So what should we do, Brother? Should we go and rescue them, or evacuate?"

The old man shook his head, frowned, and thought for a long time.

He has been thinking about this matter for the past three days.

The Master once said that He Zhui had mastered the art of physiognomy to the highest level, and he would never be wrong if he determined that a person had the appearance of an emperor.

But now...

Thinking that He Zhui was dead and the other party's disciples were now teaching under the surveillance of King Qin, he began to speculate about the leak of this information.

That person must have told King Qin everything that happened here in order to save his life.

If this happens, anyone who comes next will be in danger.

The King of Qin planned but did not act, he wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop.

A rustling sound was heard, and the old man stood up from where he was, stepped on the sorted hay, and slowly walked into the house.

He wanted to send a letter back quickly to inform the teacher about this matter.

Whether to give an early warning or to rescue people afterwards still needs to be decided by the Master.

"Aju, send a message telling them not to take any action in the near future. Also, inform Agu and tell him to protect that person's life if necessary."

"Yes, brother, I'll go right away."

Carrying the basket on his back, the young man gathered his coat, stood up and walked out of the yard.
