Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 321
Gu Li said: "Of course. I just spent twenty gold coins to buy them from human traffickers. I was going to take them back to show off. We finally have Han slaves in our family. But since Brother Youlong has spoken, I will take them back now." Given to you, they are yours.”

Xiao Yang took the rope and said: "Thank you." He drew his knife and cut off the rope in the hands of A Fei and Xiao Xiaosheng, and asked, "How did you fall into the hands of human traffickers and be sold here again?"

Ah Fei said: "It's a long story. Didn't Mr. You Long kill a few horse thieves in the desert a few days ago? Mr. Xiao and I arrived late, and we only saw your back."

"I saw you leaving with Xiao Yang, the fugitive from the Central Plains, and I was worried that you would be plotted by him, so I chased and searched with Mr. Xiao all the way, but I met a group of strange people on the way, including Persians and Western Regions, and they caught them by surprise. .”

"They saw that we had no property on us, so they knocked us out, and somehow fell into the hands of human traffickers. The human traffickers gave us hallucinogenic drugs, and we didn't know why the car master came, and we were arrested again. This girl bought it."

Xiao Yang saw that Xiao Xiaosheng's eyes were still dull, and he looked unconscious, so he said: "Well, you can help Mr. Xiao go to the front inn to rest."

But Ah Fei suddenly stepped forward, knelt down on both knees, and begged: "A Fei has always been determined to follow You Longjun and worship you as a teacher. Master, please accept me as an apprentice. From now on, A Fei will follow you for thousands of miles."

Xiao Yang couldn't help but dumbfounded. He had important things to do at the moment, and of course he couldn't get too entangled with this person who recognized his true appearance. He said, "Get up first. We'll talk about the apprenticeship later."

But A Fei refused to listen, saying: "A Fei finally found a master, but if the master doesn't agree, I won't get up no matter what."

Gu Li said with a smile: "Brother Youlong, this Ah Fei looks very energetic. I bought him because I thought he was good. There are so many horse thieves in the desert, and you are always alone. Wouldn't it be good to have more helpers around you? ?”

Xiao Xiaosheng also interjected vaguely: "You Long, I advise you to promise Ah Fei first, it's a very good time right now."

Xiao Yang listened to his words with deep meaning, and thought to himself: "Xiao Xiaosheng is right, but he and A Fei both recognize me and know that I am a felon wanted by the Central Plains court. It's not a big deal for me to be exposed as a fake dragon. The fact that the dragon is dead will inevitably leak out, how can I live up to Brother You Long's entrustment at the end of life?"

Xiao Yang immediately shook his head resolutely, and said: "Not now. Ah Fei, you get up first, stay at the inn, and I will come back to find you."

Ah Fei refused to get up no matter what.Seeing people coming and going, Xiao Yang was dragged here by A Fei for a long time to cause a big mess, so he could only respond: "Okay, I promise you, you get up first."

Ah Fei was overjoyed and kowtowed three times before getting up and stepping aside.

Xiao Yang said: "I have something to go to Jiaohe, you and Mr. Xiao stay in Yecheng and wait for me."

Ah Fei was overjoyed to have his wish fulfilled, and immediately responded: "Yes."

Looking at this young man with a bright smile, Xiao Yang suddenly thought: "He may be a good candidate to inherit the mantle of Youlong. Well, I will think about it later and try to test him."

Gu Li smiled and said: "Brother You Long, it's great that you can come to Master Che! You don't know, I'm so bored here alone. Since the last time I left the desert, I've been missing you very much."

Turning around, he told his servants, "Go back and tell Dad that we are going to entertain distinguished guests tonight."

The servant replied: "Yes."

Xiao Yang hurriedly said: "Miss Gu Li, I still have urgent matters to rush to Jiaohe, I'm afraid I won't be able to visit the house."

Gu Li said: "Then I'll go with you." Seeing Xiao Yang's hesitation, she said with a smile: "I'm a local, maybe I can help you."

Xiao Yang said: "Alright, there is Miss Lao."

Gu Li was very happy, and said with a smile: "Let's go. Brother You Long, please don't call me a girl, just call me Gu Li."

Xiao Yang said: "Yes."

The two, one in front and one behind, galloped to cross the river.When entering the city, Xiao Yang was stopped by the sergeant arbitrarily, saying that he wanted a routine inspection.

Gu Li hurried forward and shouted: "Hey, don't be rude, he is my guest."

The sergeant hurriedly backed away, apologizing: "I don't know if it's Gu Li's honored guest, how offending you are."

The two went straight to the palace office, but only the postmaster in charge of post administration was inside.

The postmaster was worrying about family affairs and future. His two sons, one supporting the eldest prince Changyi and the other supporting the second prince Changmai, quarreled endlessly at home every day.

Even the sons can see that the old king's health is failing. Where should he stand to keep his job?
Xiao Yang and Gu Li came in for a long time, but the postmaster just turned his back to the sky and ignored them.

Gu Li said: "Hey, he is Youlong."

The postmaster suddenly stood up, widened his eyes and asked, "Are you You Long?"

Xiao Yang said: "Yes."

The postmaster thought that his cousin's caravan had just been robbed by horse thieves in Bailongdui, and his cousin had been disembowelled, so he couldn't help getting angry at You Long, and said coldly: "I have long admired you. But isn't You Long dealing with horse thieves in the desert? ? What are you doing in Cheshi Country?"

Gu Li was very annoyed when she heard the words, and said: "What is the Postmaster saying? Can Brother You Long not come to Che Shi Country?" The postmaster recognized her as the daughter of a rich merchant, and he didn't care about her, he just kept looking at You Long Dragon, full of hostility.

Xiao Yang didn't know the reason for a while, so he had to directly explain the reason, saying: "I came from the desert because I have important news and I want to see His Majesty the King, or other generals in charge of military defense are also fine."

The postmaster said impatiently: "Now there are enough important news about the horse thief and Khotan, Mr. You Long should stop adding trouble and go back to your desert."

After beckoning to the sergeant, he drove the two out without any explanation.

Gu Li yelled: "He actually dared to treat Brother You Long like this, really disgraced our Che Shiguo. Brother You Long, why aren't you angry? Ah, your face...your face..."

Xiao Yang hurriedly said: "I'm fine, I'm just like this, I always have no expression on my face."

Gu Li said: "Oh, I was really scared when I saw your face like this just now. We... what are we going to do now?"

Xiao Yang was deeply troubled, he turned his head and saw a familiar figure flashing by the corner of the street by accident, he thought about it, and hurriedly said: "I have a solution, but you have to go home first. I promise you, I will come to see you when I am done. Gu Li said: "Okay, then you must come, my house is the biggest house in Yecheng."

Xiao Yang said: "Well, good."

Send Gu Li away, temporarily deposit the yellow horse at the government office, and run to the figure.
