Chapter 674
He was able to grow his hair to a waist-length, especially after it was tied into a bun on top of his head, covering his tiger's back.
After all, there were no hair extensions in ancient times, but when he met Fan Zeng and Xiang Yu, he found out that Yi Xiaochuan had already left Huiji and set out to find Mount Tangwu for more than a year, so it was almost two years ago!
Oh no! It was a wasted trip! At least he met a real-life version of the ancient fierce general, the King of Western Chu, and was warmly welcomed by Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang for more than half a month, and not only did he learn the ancient skill of horse riding, but he also got to drink and compete with Xiang Yu, the King of Chu, which is one of the great pleasures of life.
"Dare I ask if Lord Lu has moved to Pei County?" After a few days of travel, Li Linfei finally arrived in Pei County and after some enquiries met Lord Lu and the legendary Queen Lu, the innocent girl who is still called Lu Pian today.
"What? Xiao Chuan has been away for over a year?" After a brief innuendo, Li Linfei asked about Yi Xiaochuan's whereabouts, which turned out to be both unexpected and unanticipated. The reason for this was that after more than a year, Yi Xiaochuan had naturally arrived in Pei County and left the county because he had run away from his marriage.
What Li Linfei did not expect was that Yi Xiaochuan had not stayed in Pei County for long. Although it took him a few months to leave from Huiji to Pei County, and he stayed in Pei County for a few months, it had been more than a year since he left after Liu Bang's escorting team for the corvée.
This made Li Linfei's heart a little worried, after all, this was different from before when he thought Yi Xiaochuan was learning martial arts in Huiji, that was a turn of events for years without any drama.
But after he left Huiji the plot began to unfold, and it's not too much to say that the plot is happening and ending every day.
"Yes, not only Xiao Chuan, but also my sister Lu Su has been away for several months, and there is no news of her until now!" Lu Pian, on the side, spoke with some concern.
"More than a year, so may I ask if Liu Bang has returned from escorting the people to Xianyang?" Duke Lu and Lu Phenchen were stunned, wondering why Li Linfei, after frowning and pondering for a moment, did not continue to ask for news of Yi Xiaochuan, the old countryman, but instead asked about Liu Bang, the scoundrel.
"Not yet, with the distance from here to Xianyang, plus the travel speed of escorting the people, even if it is just enough for him to just Xianyang, if your son is looking for Liu Bang for something, he might as well stay at my place first, I think he can make the journey much faster alone after handing over the corvée, and he will be almost back in another six months or so."
Just arrived in Xianyang, Li Linfei was stunned, can't be? He had just arrived in Xianyang after more than a year? And it had to be a smooth journey?
But then Guo Dong reflected, after all, this was not the modern era with trains and boats and planes and high speed trains.
Is more than a year a long time? It is indeed very long, 400 to 500 days, tens of thousands of hours, 700 to 800,000 minutes, regardless of whether you are tired or sleepy, and whether there are flights.
But in fact it is also very short, from Pei County to Xianyang straight line distance are two thousand miles, in the middle and then over the mountains and rivers, shelter from the rain and wind, and occasionally a heat stroke, a sickness, a stomach trouble or whatever.
The roads in ancient times were not that easy to travel, not to mention that when they were built, no one cared about the distance, whether it was convenient and safe, it was good enough.
In more than a year's time, it was the equivalent of travelling 30 miles up and down the road every day, but only if there were no accidents every day, rain or shine.
Although there was a date limit for Liu Bang to escort the corvée, even the tyranny of the Qin emperor would not allow people to do things that could not be done, especially since there was certainly time left for such things as corvée.
So when Yi Xiaochuan, who had been left behind by him, almost died of the plague and had to recuperate for an unknown period of time, and Gao Yao, who was carrying a large basket of dead and heavy so-called antiques, the two of them travelled all the way to the Tang Wu Mountain in the former land of Yan after a trip to the mountains.
In a disappointed mood, they planned to go to the capital of the Qin Dynasty to have some fun and take a break. By the time the two of them had made a long, leisurely detour all the way to Xianyang, Liu Bang had not yet handed over the corvée.
"Then I dare ask Lord Lu, I wonder if I can know which road Liu Bang took on his way to Xianyang this time?"
Since it was still uncertain whether Liu Bang had reached Xianyang at this time, Li Linfei's heart, which had just been a little anxious, immediately settled down.
The TV series Mythology has created too many classic characters, some tragic and some lucky, some loved and some hated, some brave and heroic and some humble.
Likewise, there are those who are deplorable! It has been said that the most classic and unforgettable character in this drama is not Yi Xiaochuan, the main character, who is a saintly bitch, nor is it Yushu, the heroine, who is a beautiful woman who floats like a fairy.
It's not even Gao Lan, Xiao Yue and Yu Ji, who are known as the best actresses in the mythology TV series, but even Gao Yao, who was originally a kind, cowardly and slightly lewd girl, but was forced to become a sinister, poisonous and cold-blooded villain step by step!
The most unforgettable, classic and regrettable part of the whole drama is that Susu, who fights for love, who is gentle but dares to love and hate, who is timid but uncompromising in her love, who is weak but resilient and fearless!
The girl who is as beautiful, holy and innocent as a lotus flower! Just like Zhao Ling'er who fell in a pool of blood in the Immortal Sword, Bi Yao who recited the infatuation spell, and the little bone who could do anything for him but was always hurt by him again and again because of his ridiculous broken world.
It is precisely because of regret that it is so engraved and irreplaceable!
Chapter 675
"This is naturally known, this is the only official road to Xianyang, Liu Bang and the others must have taken this road, I wonder why your Excellency is asking this?"
Li Linfei closed his eyes and thought for a moment, although more than a year had passed, who knew where Lu Su had caught up with Yi Xiaochuan at that time? And how long did she take care of Yi Xiaochuan before he recovered from a plague patient whose life was hanging by a thread?
You have to know that sickness comes like a mountain, and sickness goes like a silk, especially in ancient times when conditions were even more so, with all kinds of modern infusions, all kinds of nutrients, all kinds of vitamins, antibiotics and a whole lot more.
If a person is sick to the extent of Yi Xiaochuan, from the hospital to the discharge will have to be a month to start, not to mention that at that time, Yi Xiaochuan they have a high to be able to make a delicious meal, is completely what is nothing to the situation?
So although there is no accident now, probably Su Su has long been dead, and even have been cremated for a long time, but not go to go to try once how can be willing?
What if that girl, who was a source of endless regret and pity, was still alive? Li Linfei was also hesitating whether to rush on and find Yi Xiaochuan so that he could participate in the plot earlier, but after hesitating for just a second, Li Linfei immediately made up his mind, whether it was still too late or not, he had to go, otherwise, his heart would not be willing!
It was one of the four suspected plot points that he had analyzed, so he had to go, and it wouldn't delay his business at all.
"I'm going to go along the road to see if I can catch up with them, so please also trouble Lord Lu to show me the way, I'll set off to find Xiaochuan!" Li Linfei said, standing up and giving a salute to Duke Lu, but just as his words fell, before Duke Lu could respond, Lu Pian suddenly stood up and spoke very urgently, "Can you stay for one night?"
Li Linfei blinked, what did Empress Dowager Lu mean by this? What did Empress Dowager Lu mean by this? She had a crush on her!
"Wisdom, what do you mean by that?"
As they say, knowing your daughter is like knowing your father, not to mention the fact that these two sisters were brought up by their father, Duke Lu, since their mother died young.
"Father, Susu left a letter and left without saying goodbye to look for Xiaochuan, but now she has not heard from him for more than a year. Moreover, I also want to ask Xiaochuan face to face why he left without saying goodbye in the first place!"
The Duke of Lu stalled at his words and his face froze, then he sighed, "Although one of you sisters is strong and the other soft, you are both determined to do something and will never turn back!
"I know I can't stop you, isn't that why Susu left without saying goodbye in the first place? If I stop you today, I'm afraid I'll believe you tomorrow!"
The words of Duke Lu made Lu Pian's face blush as she lowered her head, but her silent appearance was the most powerful answer to Duke Lu's words, proving that Duke Lu's guess was correct, which was why she had to retain Li Lin Fei for the night before leaving the next day.
After all, she couldn't run away from home in broad daylight, nor could she run out over the wall alone, and there was no way she could go on the road as a weak woman, having almost lost her virginity and her life when she was robbed last time, which really scared her!
If it wasn't for that, I'm afraid she would have followed Lu Su the night after she ran away!
Don't think it's impossible, after all, this would later be the famous Empress Lu, strong-minded, uncompromising and daring, even her soft-hearted sister could do it, let alone her.
And Li Linfei is a very good choice, the goal can be considered the same, are looking for Yi Xiaochuan, and is strong and strong body, although he has not seen him with any blades at his side, but on the road just find a blacksmith shop to buy one.
If such a person had appeared earlier, she would have set out to look for Yi Xiaochuan!
"But Zhi'er, you should know that even if you go after him, I'm afraid that what you get is not the answer you want!"
Looking at Lu Phe's silent appearance, Duke Lu sighed once again, and after a slight silence, although he knew it might not be of much use, Duke Lu still politely spoke up to discourage her.
"Father doesn't have to say much, doesn't father understand my daughter's feelings?"
"It's just a matter of time... a daughter is too old to stay!"
Lu Gong let out a long sigh, and then got up and stepped in front of Li Lin Fei, and before Guo Dong could react, he gave a long bow to the end.
"So, I'll ask you to take care of my daughter!"
Guo Dong was stunned, "Holy shit! Old man, you're too big-hearted, we haven't even met for half an hour, right?
You're not afraid that two people will be there and three will be back, and the first thing you'll say when you meet me is, "Call me grandpa"?
In fact, Lu Gong is also worried, but this is the ancient times, the hearts of the simple, extremely important promise, it can be said that except for a few black and shameless people, even peddlers and even road robbers mountain bandits, can do a promise of a thousand gold, trust and righteousness rather than life and death.
What's more, Yi Xiaochuan has special feelings and significance to the Lu family, Guo Dong is Yi Xiaochuan's hometown and best friend, as well as the same model of mobile phone as Yi Xiaochuan, and the advance hobby before coming to the mythical world, for people of this era, it is enough to know to entrust everything to Li Linfei.
"Duke Lu you quickly don't be like this, to have Miss Lu's attention and to have your trust, how dare the late student push back? Don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Lu, and I will definitely lead her to Xiaochuan!" Li Linfei was flabbergasted for a moment and hurriedly got up to help Duke Lu up.
"In that case, I will trouble you, Your Excellency!"
In this way, after resting at Lu's residence for the night, Li Linfei took Lu Pian, a famous queen of a thousand years, on his way early the next morning.
Chapter 676
The two of them had a lot of fun, and when they were bored, they teased each other, and their relationship warmed up instantly.
The two drove all the way to Xianyang to continue their search for Yi Xiaochuan, but by the time they reached Xianyang, Liu Bang had already finished handing over the corvée and left Xianyang for half a month, so they were still too late!
Now Li Linfei had two options, one was to head to the Great Wall or cross it directly into Tu'an, the other was to settle in Xianyang and look for an opportunity to enter the palace and find Gao Yao.
The former would allow Li Linfei to become more involved in the plot, while the latter would allow him to come to Gao Yao's aid when he was at his most helpless, sending carbon into the fire, eliminating the need to travel back and forth, and at the same time bringing Gao Yao to the palace and waiting for Yi Xiaochuan to return, and perhaps even finding an opportunity to enter the imperial court.
However, after a long consideration, Li Linfei did not choose either of these two options, but after accompanying Lu Phe to stroll around the huge Xianyang city, he took Lu Phe back to Pei County directly to meet with Duke Lu.
After making a mourning ceremony for Lu Su, he married Lu Phe in the presence of Duke Lu, the only elder, and then took Lu Phe to Huaiji!
"Old Uncle Xiang! Brother Yu! I'm back again!" After arriving at Huiji, Li Linfei did not enter the city, but turned the steering wheel a few miles away from the city and, amidst the shouts and screams of the villagers, drove straight into the village where Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew had gathered their sons and daughters to practise martial arts, one of Fan Zeng's several private stately homes.
"Xiandi! Come quickly! It's dangerous over there!"
When they heard the people outside, Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang immediately rushed out with their blades in hand.
"Brother Yu, there is no need to be alarmed, this is not any monster, but one of my seats, similar to the Mo family's machine beast in general!"
Xiang's uncle and nephew were stunned, but still didn't really believe in Li Linfei's words, Li Linfei had no choice but to circle around his Land Rover, kicking it here and there from time to time, finally stopping to open the door on the passenger side and taking Lu Phe's hand, the two of them walked to Xiang Yu's side with their fingers interlocked.
"Brother Yu, can you believe it now?"
Seeing that Li Linfei had patted and kicked the beast for half a day, the beast did not even react halfway, Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang could not help but take a long breath of relief, and then Xiang Yu pestered Li Linfei to try the beast, Li Linfei had no choice but to take Xiang Yu, and later Xiang Liang and Xiang Zhuang, as well as Fan Zeng who had hurriedly arrived from Huiji City upon hearing the news.
He took these few rustics for a non-stop ride round and round.
"Little Fei, didn't you go to look for Xiao Chuan? Did you find him?" After the excitement had passed, the five of them came to sit down at the small lakeside building behind the village, and Xiang Liang immediately inquired about his only disciple.
Hearing Xiang Liang's question about Yi Xiaochuan, Li Linfei and Lu Pian subconsciously glanced at each other and finally sighed and told them everything that had happened since Yi Xiaochuan left here.
The story includes how Yi Xiaochuan contracted the plague and was thrown into a house of the dead to die, but was finally saved by Lu Su, who risked her life to save him, and finally gave up her only share of medicine to Yi Xiaochuan in exchange for a life, saving his life, only to die herself.
But that's all that was said. What happened afterwards, including the fact that they went to Xianyang City but failed to find Yi Xiaochuan, was not mentioned.
They only said that they had lost track of Yi Xiaochuan's whereabouts after asking for this information from the restaurant where Gao Yao had worked as a chef, through the shopkeepers who had helped him a lot.
"I never thought that in just a few months' time, Xiaochuan would have gone through so many things." Xiang Liang sighed.
While at the side, Xiang Yu was fiercely pouring himself a large bowl of wine, before reaching for the wine altar at the side and pouring it directly onto the ground, "Miss Lu Su is benevolent and righteous, Xiang is here to pay tribute to the spirit of the girl in heaven!"
The mention of Lu Su had caused Lu Phe to feel some sadness in her heart, and at this time, when Xiang Yu made her cry, she could no longer hold back her sadness and fell into Li Lin Fei's arms.
"Ai, fate has made people, fate has made people!" Looking at Lu Phe's crying face, all the people could not help but sigh.
"By the way, Little Fei do you have something to do this time back in Huiji?"
Hearing someone mention this, Li Linfei hurriedly got up and bowed to Xiang Liang with his hands clasped in a fist.
"Uncle Xiang, I have come back this time for no other reason than I want to learn martial arts under Uncle's tutelage, so please allow me to implore you!"
Xiang Liang was stunned and said, "Your martial arts skills are already very good, you can say that you are already above me, why do you want to come to me to learn martial arts?"
Previously, Li Linfei came here to look for Yi Xiaochuan, although he came late, Yi Xiaochuan had already left for a little two years, but instead of leaving here then and rushing to Pei County, he stayed here for several days, drinking and sparring with Xiang Yu, so to speak, it was painful as hell!
After all, he had never beaten Xiang Yu and was always on the losing side, so how could he be happy?
He was not a sufferer! So to speak, he had never won a single battle, no matter if he was fighting with an iron sword, dancing with a lance on horseback, or simply competing with strength to lift a big tripod or fighting with fists and feet in physical combat.
Although the defeat was not so ugly, or else it would not have been possible for Xiang Yu to have a painful fight, but a loss is a loss, how can one be happy?
"But the few sparring matches I had with Brother Yu before, Uncle Xiang should also know that although I have a star point of weakness, but I have an empty body of strength without knowing how to use it, I don't know anything at all, now the chaotic times will come, without a skill, not to mention the male ambition to build a career, just to say that I can't even protect my family and friends!"
