Chapter 1 The Young Man
Han Lie, who was standing on the edge of the coast, raised his eyes and stared at the vast East China Sea in front of him, but the sorrow between his eyebrows was always difficult to hide.
Han Lie, who is only eighteen years old, is eight feet tall, has a face like a crown of jade, and his eyes are like stars, even if he is placed in the 21st century, it is definitely a standard piece of superb little fresh meat.
The gray and white gown, although it was just an ordinary coarse cloth, still had a sense of fluttering when worn on Han Lie, who was strong and well-proportioned.
On the bun on the head, the white jade hair fork inserted in the head shows low-key luxury, and the scabbard hanging from the waist is enough to see that this knife is from the hand of a famous artist.
The saber is more than four feet long, and the handle of the knife is wrapped with a red diamond, which is always connected to the round ring on the handle. Although this weapon is called a knife, it is actually a combination of a sword, it is tougher than a sword, more slender than a knife, and it is a close-quarters weapon that must be matched by the current warriors, and it is called the ring head knife by the people of the moment.
After the rapid development of the two Han Dynasty, it has become the main weapon in the Han army by the end of the Han Dynasty, and gradually replaced the role of the sword.
The sea breeze hunted, blowing away a strand of long hair in front of Han Lie's forehead, blocking his line of sight, retracting his gaze, he stretched out his hand to brush his long hair, looking at his reflection in the water under his feet, and a self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Han Lie in the water, his eyebrows are picturesque, his skin is better than snow, and he is seven points more beautiful than those so-called beauty stars in later generations, and he is extremely soft and beautiful.
To be honest, a man looks better than a woman, which is definitely not a glorious thing in Han Lie's opinion, and he is still in the troubled times of the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
The so-called natural appearance, Han Lie can't choose, let alone that he is still a traverser, then there is nothing to be picky about, to be able to survive by luck, I am afraid that it is also the ancestors who have accumulated countless virtues, so that they can survive the disaster of the car explosion and falling into the sea.
On an autumn day, I didn't realize that Han Lie had been standing on the beach for a noon.
"Childe, the old lady has left, please mourn, I believe that the old lady is in the spirit of heaven, and I don't want to see Childe so sad." The old voice coming from behind him was an old housekeeper of the Chen family, who was over seventy years old, holding a cane, walking staggering and slow, and his white hair looked old and strong.
"Uncle Chen has worried you, but I am a little depressed in my heart, so I am blowing the sea breeze here." When Han Lie turned around, the sorrow on his face had already dissipated, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a faint smile.
It was only when he faced Uncle Chen that Han Lie smiled, because he knew that in this family, except for his grandmother who had just died of illness, it was this Uncle Chen who regarded him as his own, and if it weren't for Uncle Chen's support in the past few years, their family would have died in the catastrophe five years ago.
"Childe is fine." Chen Bo nodded kindly, and with Han Lie's support, he walked towards the fishing village at the foot of the mountain step by step.
Han Lie's body master, his life experience is also quite complicated, his maternal grandfather is Situ Chen Tan in front of the palace of Emperor Ling of the Great Han Dynasty, but five years ago, due to the disaster of the party, the whole family was killed by Zhang Rang led by the ten permanent servants, only he was young at the time, and his grandmother was Mrs. Chen, under the escort of Chen Bo and other cadres, fled Luoyang all the way to avoid disaster in this remote fishing village in the East China Sea.
In that pursuit, Chen Bo's right foot was almost cut off by the pursuers and left disabled, causing most of his kung fu to be dispersed, and now that he is old, his body is also getting worse day by day.
In the past five years, under the strict supervision of Mrs. Chen, Han Lie was trained by Chen Bo day and night, and finally achieved something, and he could take revenge, but it was reported that the ten permanent servants led by Zhang Rang and others were in Luoyang, and were killed by the officials of the scholar clan led by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
Since fleeing from Luoyang for the past five years, she has supervised her nephew Han Lie's martial arts practice day and night, hoping that one day, Han Lie will be able to personally kill Zhang Rang and other eunuchs to avenge her husband Chen Tan, daughter and son-in-law, and the hundred members of the Chen family.
The sudden shocking change from the imperial court crushed the nerves of Mrs. Chen, and in just half a month, Mrs. Chen left, leaving only one last word, bringing back the bones of the Chen family and restoring the former reputation of the Chen family.
For five years, Han Lie was like a puppet, under the strict supervision of his grandmother, he sharpened himself into a sharp sword, but at the moment when Mrs. Chen died of illness, his spiritual tower also collapsed, and under the fury of that night, he braved the thunderstorm to rush to the top of the mountain behind the fishing village, waving the weapon in his hand, and venting the suppressed emotions in his heart.
The result is naturally another tragedy, on the top of the mountain, on the night of the thunderstorm, standing with a weapon in hand, such a move is to treat himself as a lightning rod, and he was killed by lightning alive, but in the end, he let the soul from the 21st century impersonate Han Lie's identity.
"Uncle Chen, in order to fulfill my grandmother's last words, I decided to go to Luoyang." After lunch, the moment Han Lie put down his chopsticks, he opened his mouth to say his decision.
Uncle Chen, who was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, raised his eyes, did not put down the work in his hand, and said kindly: "It's the eagle that has to face the wind and rain, and I should teach you all these years. ”
Without waiting for Han Lie to speak, Uncle Chen looked up at Han Lie this time, and said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry about me, the neighbors in the village are all old neighbors for many years, I won't be lonely, as long as you take care of yourself." ”
Han Lie nodded, but he was a little reluctant in his heart. Although he has only been in this era for a month, it is this month that has always accompanied him by his side and this Uncle Chen, and the memories drawn from his mind, Uncle Chen has always been close to him like an heir.
In the evening, when the sun sets over the fishing village, the cheers of the seaside can be heard in the distance as the villagers return from fishing.
Thinking that he was about to leave tomorrow, Han Lie couldn't help but feel a little reluctant. This fishing village is not big, there are only about 30 families, and the villagers here are all refugees who have been taken in by Mrs. Chen and Uncle Chen in the past few years, so they are all familiar with each other.
Seeing Han Lie coming, the villagers on the beach stood on their feet and saluted, and the children also quieted down all of a sudden, secretly looking at Han Lie, usually they could only see Han Lie's figure from a distance, and Han Lie usually didn't smile, so the children were a little afraid of him.
Even most of the villagers in the village were a little afraid of Han Lie, a son who looked better than a woman, and in the face of everyone's restraint, Han Lie raised the corners of his mouth: "Folks, don't be restrained, I'm here to say goodbye this time, but there is something I need to ask everyone, I hope that after I leave, everyone will help me take care of Uncle Chen." ”
Seeing that Han Lie, who had never spoken, said such kind words, the villagers responded one after another: "Don't worry, Childe, it is our duty to take care of Uncle Chen." ”
In fact, in this fishing village, Uncle Chen's prestige is higher than anyone else's, the reason is that he took them in to live here, and secondly, Uncle Chen has repelled the small groups of homeless people who came to the village to loot several times, so that this small fishing village can live and work in peace and contentment.
"Childe, we caught some sea ears today, and I'll pick some of the best ones to send to Uncle Chen." At this time, a big man picked up a few large shell-like seafood from the basket and said happily.
Han Lie glanced at the Haier in Dahan's hand, but he didn't say politely: "Thank you." "This sea ear is the abalone of later generations, but in this era, it is not too rare, and fishermen can catch some almost every day. And he usually keeps it for himself to eat, but after Han Lie crossed over, he accidentally found that this thing was abalone, and it was inevitable to covet it, so for this period of time, as long as the fishermen caught abalone, they would send the best to their homes.
Walking through the crowd, Han Lie, who was about to walk along the beach, heard a shout from behind him: "Xu Sheng, you kid are lazy again, aren't you, why don't you hurry over and clean up the nets." ”
"Oh no, I'm not like that." When Han Lie turned around, he happened to see a thin young man, like a mud monkey, jumping out of the fishing boat.
"Xu Sheng, why is this name so familiar?" Han Lie looked at the thin figure, and suddenly remembered that there was a tiger general named Xu Sheng in the Eastern Wu of the Three Kingdoms, and immediately stared at the young man, and walked back hesitantly.
"Your name is Xu Sheng? Where are you from? In the face of Han Lie's inquiry, Xu Sheng, whose face was yellow and thin, looked at the old man beside him with some restraint, and nodded a little evasively.
"Childe, this is the old grandson Xu Sheng, our grandson is from Langya Jucheng, who fled here last year, and was taken in by Uncle Chen, so he lived here, and the poor child's parents died in the war." This will be the old man next to Xu Sheng, and replied for Xu Sheng.
Han Lie once again went through the remaining memories in his mind, the name Xu Sheng would definitely not be wrong, but it was not the later Tiger General of the Three Kingdoms, Han Lie couldn't be sure, at the moment he could only nod, reached out and touched the back of the other party's head, and said: "Xu Sheng, if you are willing to practice martial arts, I will let Uncle Chen teach you." ”
"Really?" Xu Sheng looked up at Han Lie with some surprise, his dark eyes full of anticipation.
"A gentleman's word ......"
"It's hard to chase a horse." Unable to speak Han Lie, Xu Sheng took it with some excitement.
"Stinky boy, hurry up and get to work." Seeing that his grandson was getting carried away, Old Man Xu hurriedly confessed to Han Lie, raised his foot and kicked Xu Sheng.
"It's okay, this son is smart and lively, but it's a material for martial arts." Han Lie bowed slightly, turned around and walked away.
There are no horses in the fishing village, and you need to walk through a deserted valley to get in and out, Han Lie walked for two days before he came to the city closest to the fishing village, and when he entered the city, he learned that this city is called Licheng, which belongs to the Donghai County on the boundary of Xuzhou.
Since he was going to go far away, Uncle Chen had prepared for Han Lie, although he didn't leave much money at the beginning, but on this trip, Uncle Chen still prepared for Han Lie a good jade gui handed down from the Chen family in the past as a coil to go to Luoyang.
Entering the city, Han Lie took a tour of the city, found a jade shop, pawned Yugui for one gold and four thousand yuan, and then bought a horse in the city to travel.
Even if it is a horse, it costs two thousand eight hundred dollars, and the cost of a good meal is only ten dollars, which shows that the price of horses in this era is very expensive, and more importantly, this is just a horse that can only travel, if it is a war horse, the price will at least double or more, and even in this East China Sea market, it is still priceless.
Licheng is a medium-sized county with a population of just over 20,000 people, and because it is located in the East China Sea, the development of fishing and salt is acceptable, and the economy is barely prosperous. Han Lie, who stayed in Licheng for a day and appreciated the customs and customs of the Han Dynasty, rode his horse and embarked on the journey to Luoyang along the official road.
