The immortal who travels the world

Chapter 775
It was beyond Lu Yan's expectation.

He even took the initiative to find a topic, and these soldiers didn't talk to him.

Instead, he speeded up his eating and didn't even drink any more wine.

In a blink of an eye, the soldiers finished their food, paid the bill and left.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yan raised his eyebrows.

Then he asked the waiter who was cleaning the tables and bowls, "May I ask where this place is?"

The waiter in the shop is very enthusiastic.

While tidying up, he replied: "This is Yema Ridge, the young master must have been attacked by bandits?"

The waiter in the shop often deals with people who come and go from north to south, so he still has a good eye for people.

After all, although Lu Yan's clothes were shabby, he didn't look like a hard worker in terms of appearance or temperament.

Lu Yan just smiled and didn't bother to explain anything.

He thought about it in his mind, and he really didn't have any impression of the place name Yema Ridge.

Then he asked again: "Which prince's territory is it?"

After the waiter finished clearing the tables and bowls, he didn't see any customers on the left or right, so he simply sat on the stool and chatted with Lu Yan.

"It's not any prince, it's under Li Zongbing's jurisdiction."

"Chentangguan Li Zongbing?"

For the general soldier surnamed Li, Lu Yan's first reaction was Li Jing.

The waiter in the shop admired: "Young master is indeed well-informed."

"I heard that Mr. Li's army is strictly governed and the people live in peace. Why are those soldiers..."

Lu Yan showed a puzzled look just right.

The waiter looked around, pulled the stool closer, and said cautiously.

"My lord doesn't know something..."

……

"……I see."

Lu Yan nodded knowingly.

The waiter in the store was very well informed. After listening to him for a while, Lu Yan also had a certain understanding of the current situation.

To put it simply, after the birth of the third son of Zongbing Li, he was taken away by a bald man who didn't know where he came from. This made Zongbing Li furious and ordered a thorough investigation of all the bald people in Chentangguan, hoping to find his son. return.

Unfortunately, more than half a month later, there is no news of his son.

Just in time for the urgent report, the world turned against four hundred princes.

As a last resort, I can only put this matter on hold for the time being, and start to exercise the three armies to guard the pass.

And this Yema Ridge is an important place for military strategists to fight for. From time to time, it is heard that there are small-scale battles happening, so it is not surprising why the patrolling soldiers are so vigilant.

Such is the case.

But the doubts in Lu Yan's heart became more intense.

This is really weird. If the plot of the original book continues, there should indeed be many princes who are against business at this time.

But now the original plot has long since collapsed, and the weeds on Di Xin's grave are probably growing. Why are there still so many princes rebelling?

Moreover, even according to the original plot, the war at Chentangguan will have to be delayed for six or seven years, and it will not happen until Nezha grows up.

How could it be possible to start a war now? It seems that the friction is quite fierce?
Just as Lu Yan was pondering this question, a large group of soldiers suddenly appeared on the official road next to the post pavilion.

This team of troops is neatly armored and fully armed. It looks like they are well-trained.

The ones leading the way were the three armored soldiers who had eaten in the post just now.

The shop waiter had never seen such a scene before, and hurried to the back kitchen to avoid disaster.

"General, that's the man."

A soldier pointed at Lu Yan and reported to the middle-aged man on a big horse.

In such a period of military control, the tenet of killing the wrong ones is followed, and any suspicious people must be controlled.

The general was about to have Lu Yan arrested when he suddenly remembered something.

Get off the horse, approach the post booth and take a closer look, and find that it looks more and more like it.

He hurriedly approached the post pavilion, and asked hesitantly: "Dare to ask... But Taishi Lu is in person?"

"What?" Hearing the general's words, Lu Yan was stunned.

"It's really Taishi Lu."

The general hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said: "Li Xun, the last general, has seen the grand master, please forgive me for not being able to fully salute because he is wearing armor."

Lu Yan pointed at himself.

"The Grand Master Lu you mentioned is me?"

Li Xun nodded hastily and explained.

"At the end of the day, I was fortunate enough to see the portrait of the grand master at the residence of Zongbing Li. Today, His Majesty once said that the grand master left Chaoge to patrol the world on behalf of his majesty. Officials from all over the world saw the grand master as if his majesty had come in person."

Lu Yan nodded thoughtfully.

He probably understood what was going on.

At that time, the boy Yin Jiao did say that he was going to be a grand teacher, but he didn't care much, and left Chaoge directly.

Unexpectedly, Yin Jiao actually insisted on giving him the official position of Grand Master.

"Grand Master, there are rebels infesting here, it is not suitable to stay for a long time, please return to the pass at the end."

What Li Xun said was true.

Because those princes did not know why they rebelled, and almost every day, princes stood up and pulled the flag of rebellion.

Moreover, Di Xin hadn't had time to control the four princes like in the original book, so after Yin Jiao came to power, he faced more pressure than he imagined.

During this period of time, the world was full of wars, and Chengtang Sheji looked even more crumbling.

Lu Yan nodded, and he was going to go to Li Jing to ask about the situation first.

He has a good impression of that boy Yin Jiao, so it's not that he can't help.

Coincidentally, just when Lu Yan was about to leave.

Suddenly there was a loud shout of killing in the distance.

I saw smoke and dust everywhere on the official road, and there were only vague figures.

This number was several times larger than the team led by Li Xun.

However, the armor of these men and horses is not neat, it looks like a pieced together motley army.

Seeing this, Li Xun got up quickly, and ordered solemnly: "Erba, you go back to the camp to ask for help, and the rest of you, line up and follow me to protect the Grand Master!"

Judging from Li Xun's orderly response, it is obvious that this kind of encounter is not the first time.

There is no way to do this. After all, the princes of various towns are all over the world, and it is impossible to build a perfect line of defense. They can only suppress whichever side has trouble.

"kill!!!"

A large group of soldiers rushed over.

Although this team is a group of rabble, there are too many people after all.

In the era of cold weapons, the deterrent effect of crowd crushing is still very strong.

Lu Yan noticed that beads of sweat appeared on the face of Li Xun who was riding a horse.

Soon, hand in hand.

In an instant, people turned on their backs, and blood spattered everywhere.

Li Xun's subordinates were well-trained, and they had the upper hand at first.

However, the number of people was too small after all, two fists were no match for four hands, and the casualties began to increase.

The rebels noticed that Li Xun and the others were obviously struggling to protect the post pavilion, so they guessed that there must be some important person inside.

Immediately turned the spearhead and forcibly pierced through the line of defense.

Seeing a large number of rebels rushing into the post booth, Li Xun's face changed drastically: "No!"
