Chapter 373: Treasures
Being chased by a large group of people, like a trapped rat, but unable to fight back, this was probably the most embarrassing moment for Zhang Yang and Feiyan in the city.
"We must get rid of them and never take action against these people." Zhang Yang responded quickly.
Soon, Zhang Yang found a narrow alley and immediately came up with a plan.
"Fei Yan, follow me closely!" Zhang Yang ordered.
When passing through the alley, Zhang Yang twisted his body and quickly entered the alley. Feiyan followed closely behind him and also slipped in.
The number of people chasing them was so huge that they couldn't stop for a while. By the time they reacted, Zhang Yang and Feiyan had disappeared at the alley.
When everyone chased into the alley, they saw Zhang Yang and Feiyan leaning against a wall. This was a dead end, blocking Zhang Yang's way.
"Haha, you have nowhere to escape." Someone in the crowd laughed.
Zhang Yang looked at the high wall, and he was not as depressed as those people expected. He was Zhang Yang, and this little predicament was nothing.
"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you." Zhang Yang said, turning to Feiyan, "Get ready, let's go!"
"Yes!" Feiyan responded. She and Zhang Yang had worked together for a long time and had a tacit understanding between them. She naturally understood what he meant.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yang kicked his feet and jumped into the air, stepping steadily on the vertical wall, just like walking on flat ground. Feiyan followed closely behind him and also jumped over easily.
The two of them climbed over the wall in an instant, leaving a group of stunned onlookers behind.
"This is simply flying over the eaves and walls!"
"Who are they? They are so powerful!"
There was an uproar in the crowd.
After Zhang Yang and Feiyan got rid of the crowd, they ran all the way to the apartment where the Confucian scholar was taking shelter. It was no longer suitable to stay in Xianyang for long and they had to leave as soon as possible.
They planned to accumulate strength in a place far away from Xianyang, and then return to the city when the time was right to conquer the country in one fell swoop. As for people like Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, they were just stepping stones on their way to the throne.
He, Zhang Yang, is the only king in this city.
It is now the 35th year of Qin Shihuang's reign, with only one year left. Qin Zheng is about to pass away, and there is not much time left for him.
Zhang Yang planned to develop in Langya City, which was far away from Xianyang. Only by keeping a low profile could he avoid the attention of Qin Zheng and Zhao Gao and quickly grow stronger.
But the most pressing issue at the moment was how to leave Xianyang. Zhang Yang and Feiyan were fine, as ordinary city walls were no obstacle for them. The trouble was for the Confucian scholars, who were all unarmed scholars. They would be out of breath if they ran a few steps, let alone climb over the wall.
With Zhang Yang and Fei Yan's abilities, it was not impossible to take these people away, but Zhang Yang hoped to leave quietly. He had just escaped from a mysterious experience and did not want to attract Qin Zheng's attention immediately, not to mention that his strength was still limited. In short, he did not want to cause trouble now.
Zhang Yang was in a dilemma for a moment.
He went out to investigate again. If he did not hide his face, he would be chased around the city by the citizens. Looking at the city gate again, the soldiers were holding portraits and checking out those who had left the city one by one. It would be extremely difficult to get out.
The only way to leave the city is to grow wings and fly away quietly.
Zhang Yang returned to his hiding place and looked at the Confucian scholars, asking them for advice. They all shook their heads and were at a loss as to what to do.
Time is running out, but they are trapped in the city with nothing to do. Do they really have to let them grow wings and fly out of Xianyang?
"It's really not easy to fly out," Feiyan suddenly suggested, "but it's possible to get out from underground."
"We can dig a tunnel here leading to the outside of the city," Feiyan explained clearly, "In this way, not only can we leave Xianyang, but this tunnel can also serve as a passage to sneak into the city in the future."
Zhang Yang looked at Feiyan with appreciation. This idea was indeed good. It not only solved the current dilemma, but also made plans for the future. Imagine the war situation in a few years. If his army sneaked into Xianyang in batches through this tunnel, they would be caught off guard.
It seems that Feiyan is gradually growing up.
Feiyan looked at Zhang Yang, scratched her head, and smiled shyly. She had followed Zhang Yang for a long time and had learned a lot from him.
The Confucian scholars shook their heads when they heard this. This method was feasible, but it was indeed difficult to implement. Digging a tunnel was simply a fantasy. It had to be done quietly from here to outside the city. Such a huge project could not be completed without a year or two.
Zhang Yang smiled slightly. This little thing was just a piece of cake for him.
Zhang Yang summoned the Xuanyuan Sword, and the sword energy was so sharp that it seemed to cut through the air.
Zhang Yang held the sword in his hand, walked to a hidden place, drew a circle, and the sharpness of the Xuanyuan Sword easily dug a deep hole in the ground.
Loosening the hilt, Zhang Yang used his inner energy to control the Xuanyuan Sword and began to dig a tunnel.
He first dug the tunnel several dozen meters deep to ensure it was sufficiently concealed. Following the stairs deeper into the ground, Xuanyuan Sword began to move forward.
The Confucian scholars looked at Zhang Yang with surprise. Not to mention the digging method, the Xuanyuan Sword alone was enough to shock people. It was the Xuanyuan Sword, the sword of the Yellow Emperor in ancient times, a legendary artifact, but now it was used by Zhang Yang to dig a tunnel.
Feiyan was used to this, and she turned on the light and said to the Confucian scholar behind her with a smile: "Hurry up and catch up with me with the light. Walk at the end and be responsible for closing the entrance to the tunnel."
In the bustling city, those erudite scholars didn't know how to close the underground passage. They all rushed to carry the lighting equipment and followed Zhang Liang into the tunnel.
Feiyu naturally would not really let the scholars stay to cover the entrance, so after everyone entered the tunnel, he carefully closed the entrance. Not feeling reassured, he set up an invisible protective shield around it. Only after everything seemed to be normal did he leave with peace of mind.
Fei Yu did not go along the tunnel, but directly climbed over the city wall and waited for Zhang Liang and his party on the outskirts of Xianyang.
Zhang Liang and the scholars had a smooth passage underground, with the Xuanyuan Sword clearing the way and the Jiuli Pot sucking all the sand and rocks into the pot.
The sword moved quickly, even faster than the scholars, and Zhang Liang gradually distanced himself from them. While digging the tunnel, he inlaid huge luminous gems on the walls of the cave on both sides, placing one every ten steps. He had already placed hundreds of them. These gems were originally Zhao Gao's treasures, dozens of boxes, and Zhang Liang placed them along the way, and he had not yet used up half of them.
The thing that Zhao Gao regarded as a treasure was used by Zhang Liang for lighting. If Zhao Gao knew about it, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.
While walking, Zhang Liang was also reinforcing the cave wall. The excavated sand and stones were refined into hard stone slabs in the Jiuli pot and firmly attached to the wall. On the slightly dim stone wall, the luminous gems emitted a faint light.
Inside the tunnel, the only sounds were the Xuan-Yuan Sword breaking rocks and the sound of footsteps. Everyone moved forward silently, and no one broke the silence.
As Zhang Liang placed the gems, he was also quietly planning in his mind. He had a grand blueprint in mind, perhaps he could establish his own power underground in Xianyang.
