0030: Xiping 3 years
In the 3rd year of Xiping, perhaps because the Empress Dowager Dou died of illness and the Empress Dowager Dong ascended the throne, the imperial court changed the era name again. However, this naturally has nothing to do with Li Yi, and the only thing he remembers about the year name of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty is the 7th year of the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the Jian'an that took decades later.
Yin Mountain, a white lightning flashed between the mountains and forests, and after a while, I heard a scream of some kind of animal, and then I saw Xiao Bai holding a sika deer in his mouth, and quickly ran back to Li Yi's legs, and after putting down the body of the sika deer, he looked at Li Yi with a smug look, as if to say, "Praise me, praise me~"
"Hehe, Xiaobai is awesome, worthy of being the king of beasts~" Li Yi stroked Xiaobai's head and smiled, and his words suddenly made Xiaobai even more proud, and he kept rubbing his head on Li Yi's trouser legs while flicking his tail. Hawkers, maybe it's because of the relationship between many people in Jiuyuan County who have dogs, so Xiaobai learned the actions of dogs when they are spoiled?
At this time, Xiaobai is already 2 years old, and he is no longer the size of the original cute kitten, his body length is not nearly a foot long, his tail is nearly a zhang, and his height is nearly 5 feet, which is already a behemoth. At least in Jiuyuan County, in addition to Li Yi, only Lu Bu, Gao Shun and Li Yan will approach Xiaobai, although others are not afraid of Xiaobai, but under normal circumstances, they are not very willing to get too close to Xiaobai.
But despite this, Li Yi has become more and more fond of Xiaobai, and he even plans to turn Xiaobai into his mount, but he just ...... "Alas, Xiaobai, Xiaobai, it would be nice if you could grow bigger~" Li Yi touched Xiaobai's head and sighed.
Tigers that are nearly 5 feet tall can only be small tigers even in the tiger world, let alone horses that are generally 6 or 7 feet or even higher. If Li Yi really regarded the tiger as a mount, let alone how to walk on Xiaobai's body, just when he met other people riding horses, he couldn't see the other person's face without looking up, which was enough for Li Yi to dispel this idea.
"Whew~" Hearing Li Yi's words, Xiaobai shouted coquettishly, and he didn't know what it meant. But then it disappeared into the woods, and in a short time, a large number of prey were piled up in front of Li Yi.
"Eat well~ eat more, you will grow faster~" Li Yi rubbed Xiaobai's head, and seemed to have understood what Xiaobai meant.
When Li Yi returned to Jiuyuan County with Xiaobai and others, it was already sunset and dusk, "Father, Xiaobai has hit a lot of prey today, let's barbecue and eat it~" Li Yi shouted into the house.
"Another barbecue?" Li Yan's somewhat helpless voice came from the house, since Xiaobai's appetite increased to the point that he had to rely on hunting every day to maintain it, the Li family's food had almost become a barbecue series. This change made Li Yan, who is not a picky eater and even likes barbecue, also began to have a little fear of barbecue.
"You guys eat, Father will make something lighter himself." Li Yan shook his head and said.
"Huh? Father, who sent the letter? Li Yi saw Jian Ce in Li Yan's hand and asked curiously.
"Letters? Can't my father read? Li Yan said casually when he heard this, but when he saw Li Yi's disbelieving expression, he finally said helplessly, "It's your Uncle Tong's, who said that he accepted another disciple." ”
"Huh? Received another one? Didn't my uncle just accept a disciple named Zhang Ren in Yizhou 3 years ago? Li Yiwen asked in a strange tone.
"Yes, but this time, it seems that your uncle will take in an apprentice for the last time, and he said in the letter that Ah Yun, that is, your uncle's new disciple, is extremely talented, even if it is not inferior to you and Abu. He plans to spend 1 or 2 years teaching Ah Yun and Ah Ren with all his might. Li Yan waved the letter and said.
"Ah Ren is also there? That Ayun is from Yizhou? Li Yiyan asked again.
"No, it's Changshan Zhending, but Ah Ren's parents seem to have died, so Xiongfu brought Ah Ren to Changshan as well." Li Yan said casually, while preparing his own light dinner, he really couldn't stand the days when there was only barbecue every day, although Li Yi would also take some vegetables to roast.
"Tsk, Zhang Ren, Zhao Yun...... Can't you let them slip out of my hands......" Li Yi ignored his vegetarian father, and was already thinking about how to let Tong Yuan bring Xiao Zhang Ren and Xiao Zhao Yun to Jiuyuan to settle down. As long as he thought that when the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, his subordinates already had the four cattle of Lu Bu, Gao Shun, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Ren, plus Chen Jing, Zhao Xuan and other outstanding military generals, Li Yi's heart could not help but be excited.
After all, what he has wanted to do all these years is not to make the best start when the Yellow Turban Rebellion comes?
"What do you think?" Li Yan saw Li Yi's distracted appearance and asked funny, "The meat is all burnt." ”
"It's nothing, I just want to meet my uncle's disciples." Li Yi smiled when he heard this, and casually threw some of the burnt meat to Xiaobai, who was already drooling on the side. Obviously, for it, there is no concept of scorching or not scorching.
"Hehe, then you have to wait 2 years. However, I think with Xiongfu's character, Ah Yun and Ah Ren will definitely be trained very well. Li Yan looked at Li Yi meaningfully and smiled.
Hearing this, Li Yi looked at Li Yan with some helplessness and said, "Father, although your son Li Yi is only 10 years old, he is already an invincible opponent in the Nine Plains. Are you still not satisfied? ”
"Jiuyuan? What is the mere nine plains? There are countless strong people in the world, and the strong people in a county town can't attract the attention of others at all. Li Yan chuckled when he heard this.
"Oh? What kind of strong people are there in the world? Dad, you must have met a lot of strong people in the past, right? Li Yi was immediately interested when he heard this.
"Indeed, at that time, Father was still young and vigorous, and He Xiongfu had just left his mentor to explore the world, and almost when he heard that there was a strong person somewhere, he would run over to challenge ......" Li Yan heard this, looked up at the sky and recalled in a low tone.
In Li Yan's words, Li Yi heard many celebrities who had only heard a few stories, such as Wang Yue, who was known as the first sword in the world, or people who seemed to be related to some famous generals, such as Nanyang Huang Yu, who was known as the first sharpshooter in Jingzhou. Of course, there are still many people who Li Yi has never heard of at all, and he can't get in touch with those famous generals in the future.
They all have strong strength, but for various reasons, they chose to live in seclusion between the mountains and forests, counties and townships, if it wasn't for Li Yan to mention it, Li Yi might not be able to know their existence for the rest of his life.
