Chapter 141 Reactions from all parties
"No more meat, no more meat. Come back tomorrow, come back tomorrow."
In front of Fan Kuai's butcher shop, Fan Kuai was experiencing both pain and pleasure.
Ever since the name of the hero who killed the barbarians spread, people have been flocking to his butcher shop to buy meat.
In the past, he would have a lot of meat left over each day and would try to preserve it until the next day to sell it.
But now, they're sold out in just one day.
To make matters worse, those people wouldn't let him leave and wanted to buy his flesh again, causing him immense suffering.
However, to his delight, his income also doubled.
Just now, he had just closed his butcher shop when he saw Tang Yu and Liu Bang coming towards him together.
The purpose was clearly to find him and have dinner with him.
For a moment, a look of joy appeared on Fan Kuai's face, which was full of impatience.
Upon reaching Liu Bang's side, he loudly proclaimed, "Brother, you have no idea what I've been up to these past two days..."
Upon hearing this, Liu Bang quickly waved his hand.
Who says he doesn't know? He knows it all too well.
Seeing this, Fan Kuai gave a somewhat embarrassed smile.
He then spoke to Tang Yu.
"We have to thank Brother Zilong for sharing this title with us."
Tang Yu quickly added.
"It's nothing. We fought the White Serpent together, so there's no question of sharing the spoils."
As the three talked, they headed towards Xiao He's residence, where they would drink and discuss philosophy together that day.
Actually, the idea for today was proposed by Tang Yu.
He wanted to see what the old fox Liu Bang was really thinking and what Xiao He's true philosophy was.
The saying goes that people speak the truth when they're drunk, though it may not always be true.
It's at least much more credible than what he says when he's at his most lucid.
They were on their way there.
In Xianyang, Ying Zheng also received the corpse of the giant white snake.
Looking at the enormous white snake before him, as thick as a well, Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes.
"Such a giant serpent exists in this world. Could it be the possession of immortals?"
Upon hearing this, the Black Ice Guard shook his head.
"The Imperial Preceptor said that this creature is a white snake that has lived for a relatively long time."
"It is the object that will usher in the destiny of the next dynasty."
"However, he has already been killed by the Grand Preceptor, severing the fate of the next dynasty!"
"Very well, Mr. Tang has indeed not disappointed me."
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng couldn't help but applaud.
After all, when Ying Zheng heard that this was an object that would determine the fate of the next dynasty, his heart tightened.
If the next dynasty emerges, it means that the Qin Dynasty will perish!
But when he heard that Tang Yu had destroyed this fortune, he was genuinely happy.
If that's the case, then why did Mr. Tang give this to me?
Ying Zheng was somewhat puzzled, but the secret guards of the Black Ice Platform quickly explained.
"Mr. Tang said that although this item is a symbol of the destiny of the next dynasty, it is also a great tonic in the world."
"At the same time, his body can remain incorrupt for a long time. His Majesty should preserve it well and deal with it when he returns."
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng quickly replied...
"In that case, you should listen to the Grand Preceptor and store this snake in a place where it is easy to preserve, and under no circumstances should it be allowed to rot."
After the guards of the Black Ice Platform withdrew, Ying Zheng looked at the letter Tang Yu had written for him and muttered to himself.
"Mr. Tang! I never expected that such a big thing would happen during my trip to Pei County!"
"And then there's Liu Bang, who's not much younger than me, and he's even the founder of the Han Dynasty?"
"What an interesting name! If I have the chance, I will certainly make the acquaintance."
In his letter, Tang Yu finally confessed.
The complete background of Liu Bang, as well as the positions and strengths of the people who formed the founding team of the Western Han Dynasty.
Furthermore, Tang Yu specifically mentioned that Liu Bang was the founding emperor of the Western Han Dynasty and the one who defeated Xiang Yu.
This greatly surprised Ying Zheng.
Because he had witnessed Xiang Yu's bravery firsthand; even Meng Tian could not defeat him.
Moreover, given his bravery, how could an ordinary person defeat him?
But just when he thought Liu Bang was also an extraordinary and powerful man, he found that Liu Bang was actually just an ordinary old man.
Yes, in this era, Liu Bang's age could already be considered that of an old man.
Although Xiang Yu possessed unparalleled bravery, Liu Bang, with his mortal body, still managed to defeat him.
This immediately piqued Ying Zheng's interest in Liu Bang.
"Zilong slaying the white snake?"
"Interesting! Very interesting!"
Ying Zheng stroked his beard.
Upon seeing Tang Yu's letter instructing him to spread the name of Zhao Zilong, the slayer of the white snake, he couldn't help but smile.
He assumed it meant he was instructing his subordinates to do it immediately.
If we were to say who was the most efficient person in the Qin Dynasty, it would undoubtedly be Ying Zheng.
This group of men under his command were under Ying Zheng's command.
The enthusiasm and speed of this group were truly outstanding.
In less than a day, the entire city of Xianyang knew the name Zhao Zilong, the slayer of the snake.
Before setting off, Tang Yu specifically informed Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang.
They knew that Tang Yu was going to Pei County.
The two were also curious as to why Tang Yu wanted to go to Pei County.
But when Tang Yu mentioned that it was a good friend of his in Pei County who had passed the exam and become a secretary, he was surprised to learn that...
At that moment, Xiang Yu couldn't help but smile.
In his view, Zilong's friends are his friends!
That is to rebel against this ally of the Qin state.
So he also sent Tang Yu there as soon as possible.
But now that the name of Zhao Zilong, the slayer of the snake, has spread throughout Xianyang, Xiang Yu can't help but feel a little emotional.
"I never expected that Brother Long would be able to slay that giant serpent!"
Zhang Liang, who was standing to the side, said...
"I heard that several people traveled together, and Zilong was..."
As Zhang Liang spoke, his voice grew softer, and Xiang Yu couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.
In his view, Tang Yu had obviously obtained the title of a hero who had killed someone, but was too embarrassed to tell the truth.
Xiang Yu also laughed heartily.
"It's alright, Zilong, I feel this trip has been quite beneficial!"
"Especially his good friend who passed the exam to become a secretary or official, he will definitely become an asset to us in the future."
Zhang Liang's lips twitched, and he was completely dumbfounded.
He never expected Xiang Yu to be so outrageous.
It was already outrageous that two out of the three members of an alliance were traitors.
But now he's actually trying to insert another traitor, and he's starting to feel sorry for Xiang Yu.
As they talked, they both felt sorry for Tang Yu.
After all, traveling from the bustling city of Xianyang to Peixian must have been a difficult journey, with poor food and clothing, and the traveler must have suffered day and night.
But what they didn't expect was...
According to them, Tang Yu, who was suffering day and night, was actually enjoying himself.
