On the surface, Lu Zhen was confused at this time, but in fact, he had already thought a lot about the inside story and fully considered the pros and cons.

He knew very well that if he denied this identity at this time, he would inevitably bring a lot of trouble to himself, after all, this dress belonged to the Lu County Order. And even if he brought these two to find the corpses, while convincing them, he was afraid that he would be regarded as a murderer by the other party, and then he would really be at a loss for words.

Therefore, it is better to accept this identity in a daze, and get through the current problems for the time being. And he is now experiencing identity troubles, and it is the most convenient and safe way to enter the Central Plains as Lu County Commander.

Of course, there are many drawbacks in this, and once people see that they are a Xibei goods, the next big trouble will be. However, Lu Jin felt that he might be able to use the excuse of breaking his head, and he couldn't remember the previous events to prevaricate for a while, as far as the current point of view, the two people in front of him seemed to be able to pass away, and even his not so fluent local dialect didn't arouse their suspicions, did it?

There is another layer of consideration that Lu Zhen deliberately ignored, that is, the value of the identity of the county order itself. He didn't want to start from the bottom after returning to the Central Plains, not to mention that he didn't have the ability to survive in this era, just because of the pride of being a traverser, he couldn't tolerate being a soldier, and being an official was obviously the best way to live.

It is precisely because of this kind of consideration that Lu Zhen made the current decision. And all this is troublesome, in fact, it is only a quick turn in his mind, and it has been settled, and the expression on his face has not changed much.

The two people in front of them finally nodded after seeing him silent, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly stood up, and looked him up and down with concern: "My lord, where have you been these days?" But are there any injuries? ”

"I ...... I fell from the mountain before, and my mind is still drowsy, and I don't know where I am, just ......walking with some vague thoughts" Lu Zhen had to make up a reason in order to prevent them from seeing the problem: "Actually, I don't remember my identity very much, am I really a county magistrate?" ”

"Ah......" The two looked at each other, and they couldn't react for a long time. I didn't expect that the county lord I worked so hard to find couldn't even remember himself, could it be that he was really stupid?

Thinking in their hearts, the two of them didn't dare to show it on their faces, and hurriedly comforted: "My lord, you must have been frightened, so you are a little confused." As long as you go back to the county and let Lang Zhong take a look, you can recover. ”

"Yes, my lord, now our county government and the garrison in the city are looking for your whereabouts." Lin Lie also nodded and said, "Let's go back to the city now." As he spoke, his eyes turned to the horse behind Lu Jin, and he was a little puzzled in his heart, how could there be such a horse next to the county commander.

In this regard, Lu Zhen wisely chose to turn a blind eye, and since he couldn't explain it, he didn't explain it. When someone really asked, he could say that he was drowsy, and he didn't remember how the horse came to be.

Han Si, on the other hand, was relieved, and just wanted to escort the adults back to the county as soon as possible, so that he could be regarded as making a lot of contributions.

In this way, the three of them set off again, and under the leadership of these two, Lu Zhen no longer had to find a way to worry.

And along the way, Lin Lie tentatively asked Lu Zhen about some of his experiences in the past few days, but he was perfunctory on the grounds that he was dizzy and couldn't remember the details. His current identity is the boss of these two, and he is an official, so they naturally don't dare to ask too much, so they can only accept the fact that Lord Lu can't remember too many things with some questions and uneasiness for the time being.

It was Lu Jin, who had a lot of words about Han Si along the way, and had a rough idea of some of the situation in the county.

It turned out that he was going back to a county town called Guangling, a small county located on the border between the Ming Dynasty and the Mongolian grasslands, with hundreds of garrisons in addition to hundreds of local residents. In addition to him, the county magistrate who is known as the eldest lord, there is also a county official as a deputy, and a chief bookkeeper, these two people are surnamed Hou and Shen respectively...... There were other things, but he didn't ask any more, for fear that asking too many questions would attract the suspicion of the other party.

Because it is located in the border area, there is really no decent official road near Guangling County, and after walking for a while, the sky is completely dark, and several people can only move forward one foot deep and one foot shallow, not to mention, and several times almost tripped over the rocks and grass.

It wasn't until Lin Lie brought grass and trees from the side and lit a torch that the situation was slightly better. But what Lu Zhen didn't realize was that Lin Lie's eyes hidden by the firelight were looking at him secretly with a hint of suspicion at the moment, as if he had seen something.

@@@@@

It wasn't until about the second watch that the three people and one horse came to the county seat, and the road under their feet was much smoother and wider, although it was not a serious official road, but it was enough for the horses to let go and gallop.

Although it was dark night, Lu Zhen could still see the vague outline of the city head in the north of this small county town by the light of the fire. This is a city tower more than three feet high, not only does it not look very tall, but it also looks quite dilapidated, pitted, obviously the traces left by many attacks.

When you get closer, you can even look up and see a few gaps above. In addition, the city gate is engraved with two vigorous but mottled characters - Guangling. All this seemed to tell people about all the hardships that this city had experienced, so that Lu Jin's heart could not calm down for a long time.

As a history buff, Lu Zhen has also been to some museums before and has seen many treasures from hundreds of thousands of years ago. But no matter how well preserved those things were, they always gave him the impression that they were not real and that they were too far away.

And now, although it is only a broken and old city wall, it has given him a complete appreciation of the simplicity of real history. The sense of historical precipitation that has endured vicissitudes and stands tall is really exciting.

"My lord......" Seeing that he suddenly stopped and looked up at the city wall and was speechless for a long time, Han Si couldn't help but scream.

Lu Zhen pulled out his consciousness from the sigh in his heart, and said casually: "I seem to have some impression of this place......" As he spoke, he continued to walk forward, and soon came to the city gate.

This kind of small city has no moat, but because it is located on the border, the defense is quite careful, not only the city gate is closed, but there is also a pile of rejecting horses outside, which is used to deal with the Mongolian cavalry that may come to attack.

And just as the three of them approached, a little fire suddenly lit up at the head of the city, and a rude voice came down: "What kind of person dares to approach my Guangling City in the middle of the night?" The voice was especially loud in the silence of the night.

"Mr. Lu? I'm Han Si of the county government...... We've finally found the county lord. Han Si didn't dare to hold it up, so he quickly reported his name and identity.

"It turned out to be your kid...... "The general of the city laughed, but then he was stunned again: "What did you say?" Did you really find the Lu County Order? ”

"Exactly, please open the gate and let us into the city." Han Si nodded in response.

There were immediately a few discussions from above, and then Lu General said: "Wait! And there was no movement.

After waiting in front of the city gate for a while, only a creaking sound was heard, and the city gate, which looked quite old, but was very strong, was slowly opened a gap from the inside, and under the light of a few torches, Lu Jin saw a tall man in a brown uniform striding over.

When he carefully looked at this general with a messy beard and couldn't tell the other party's age, the other party also looked at him several times, and then laughed: "Sure enough, it's Lu County's order, you can be regarded as back." If you don't come back, the brothers will really go to the north to find you! ”

Just listening to the voice, Lu Zhen knew that this was the general Lu at the head of the city just now, so he smiled at him: "Let you suffer from the general Lu." ”

"It's nothing." The rough man waved his hand and said disapprerovingly: "It's always a good thing that Lu County has ordered you to come back safely, it's getting late, go back to the county government quickly." With that, he got out of the way.

Lu Zhen nodded, and then passed past him with the other two, passed through the two-zhang city gate hole, and walked towards the city.

It wasn't until he saw them leave that Mr. Lu lowered his teeth, tilted his head thoughtfully, and a strange smile flashed on his face.

This Guangling County is really not big, from the north gate to the county government located in the city is only more than half a mile away, only a while, they have come to a look quite majestic, but some dilapidated yamen.

A big drum with red paint and white face stands on the side of the gate, and a plaque with the words "Guangling County Ya" is hung on it. At this time, most of the red paint on it was peeling off, and the door was tightly closed.

Han Si was not polite, and immediately stepped forward and slammed the door vigorously, and at the same time greeted loudly: "Old Li Tou, open the door quickly, the eldest lord is back!" ”

This voice spread far and wide in the empty and silent county town, and soon a fierce barking of dogs sounded from all sides, and it was immediately quite lively.

And after he knocked on the door for a while, the door was opened, and an old man with a hunched body stood there with a surprised face, and when he saw Lu Jin, his face quickly showed surprise: "Master, master, are you really back?" ”

And with this greeting, soon, the calm yamen also quickly became lively, several lanterns came from far and near, and more than a dozen men with hurried expressions also greeted them one after another, and after seeing Lu Jin, they all showed a look of surprise.

Seeing this, Lu Jin's heart was tense for a while, at this point, he had to go all out to perform this Li Daitao stiff play.
