The next day.

Everyone packed up their tents, continued to set off, and began to enter the boundary of Yuzhou, and the slowness of the carriage made Lu Chen and the others extremely bored.

While pulling the calf, enjoy the landscape.

Yuzhou is a densely populated place, this kind of desolate post road has many players passing by, from time to time you can see some NPCs, they did not pass through the county seat, perhaps because of the player's permission problems, walking on the post road, part of the supplies are purchased in the NPC village.

One day.

Full access to the Yuzhou border.

When night came, everyone continued to take out the camp tent and set up camp, but there seemed to be no quiet around the Luoyang border, and some fierce beasts appeared here from time to time, and a few desperate bandits popped up from time to time.

Lu Chen and the others continued to roast mutton around the fire, this thing can be said to be a string of things in reality, and there are also a dozen in the game.

"If only I could hurry, I really don't understand why I am walking so slowly? Is it just to send a broken vase back? Fortunately, there are no Yellow Turbans now, otherwise, we people would not be so happy. ”

Lu Chen and the others listened to some lord players start to complain, they smiled faintly and patiently enjoyed the taste of roast mutton.

"At today's marching speed, our mutton definitely needs to be replenished, and there are not many stocks, haha." Li Long looked at the player guards who had just patrolled, and they had picked up another wave of scattered bandits, and said something.

Everyone nodded, they saw that there were more and more bandits, and the interval between them became more and more frequent, and the purpose of the bandits did not seem to be simply robbers to rob property.

But at the same time.

Lu Chen and the others couldn't make a move at will, so as to prevent attracting stronger enemies in advance.

Li Long looked at Lu Chen, who was thoughtful, and suddenly asked curiously, "Su Datuo, can I talk about your affairs?" We're all curious, how did you get the sandalwood locust to die? That's a super boss character, the reward must be very rich, is there any super rich reward? ”

When everyone heard Li Long's words, they were all secretly curious, looking at Lu Chen, who was stunned, including Lin Jun, with curious eyes.

Lu Chen glanced at everyone, he didn't know what to say in his heart, not to mention that you were more suspicious, and you didn't believe it at all.

Yu Wenyuan turned his head sideways with a smile and asked in a low voice: "Yes, let's talk about it, have you recruited particularly powerful generals, such as Huang Zhong, Tai Shici, Lu Bu and other fierce generals?" ”

"Uh, no."

Lu Chen denied it without thinking about it, and muttered in his heart, if there were super generals such as Lao Huang Zhong, Tai Shici, and Lu Bu, would he still be chased and killed by Lao Tanshi at that time, and he would have been killed with an arrow.

Li Long seemed to believe Lu Chen's words, he nodded and denied Yu Wenyuan's guess and said: "It is very difficult to get a famous general, let alone the three of them, Huang Zhong needless to say, knows that the old man must be in Nanyang, Jingzhou now, he is not only Liu Bei's team, but also has to follow Liu Biao for a while, the possibility is almost zero." ”

"Tai Shi Ci, in addition to saving Beihai in history, there are not too many records, but there is some possibility, but he seems to be from Donglai, Qingzhou, and he is separated from Youzhou by Jizhou."

"Don't talk about Lu Bu, last time Lao Tzu stepped forward, he was almost chopped by him, this kind of super boss character is impossible to be included in his command."

Hearing Li Long's analysis, Yu Wenyuan and the others became even more curious, pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "Su Datuo, let's be honest, did the system help you kill him?" ”

As soon as Yu Wenyuan's words came out, Li Long and the others all stared at Lu Chen, as if they were waiting for Lu Chen to honestly admit that he was Tuo.

"I ......" Lu Chen hesitated for a long time, helpless in his heart for everyone's doubts, and explained with a faint sigh: "Tanshi Huai really wasn't killed by me, nor was it killed by my subordinates, so... That's all the system pits me. ”

Li Long and the others rolled their eyes.

"I'm telling the truth, just because of such an announcement, I want to compensate 2 million quintals of grain, 30 million copper coins, tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses, I'm really helpless."

Lu Chen endured everyone's questioning gaze, but still seriously stated the facts.

Li Long and the others looked at Lu Chen, who was suspected of acting realistically, with disdainful eyes, as if to say, you continue to blow, we will quietly watch you pretend.

Lu Chen could only smile helplessly.

That's when it happened.

Zhu Hong coughed twice to interrupt everyone's suspicions, looked at Lu Chen, who was crying and mournful, and said to Li Long and the others: "I don't think Brother Su is lying. ”

Li Long showed a puzzled expression of surprise.

"Impossible, isn't it said that the game is the fairest and most just?"

Zhu Hong shook his head and said with a light smile: "When getting and paying is equivalent, it is fair and just, the price paid by Brother Su is high, and the reward must not be low, just look at his mount." ”

Li Long and the others looked at the snow treading black horse behind them, and instantly understood, and then thought of Zhu Hong's position as a strategist and the Hun general behind him, and suddenly understood.

Lu Chen sighed, looked at everyone and said: "Alas, Brother Hong is right, at that time, I was chased by Lao Tanshi with three thousand Praetorian Guards, and later because he was about to kill me with a bow and arrow, an arrow shot by a mysterious NPC with a bow was hit in the chest, and after a few days, he died inexplicably and violently, and I also Mo Min wonderfully picked up half of the head, but unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and the retribution came." ”

Lin Jun immediately imagined how much 2 million quintals of grain was, and now that the grain is 1,200 copper coins per quintal, 2 million quintals is equivalent to 2.4 billion copper coins, 2.4 billion yuan, which can already be equivalent to the total investment of his studio.

Inadvertently, he secretly gasped, he didn't expect Lu Chen to be so rich, could it be that he was also the son of a chaebol?

Everyone was secretly speculating.

Lu Chen looked at everyone's speculative gaze, twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, continued to roast his mutton, and said secretly in his heart, who of you would know that Lao Tzu is now almost penniless in order to repay this huge amount of money, if it weren't for some gold on his body, how could this mutton be affordable for people in debt like us.

Chatting until midnight.

Everyone went back to the camp tent to rest, each with their own generals guarding them, and although the periphery was noisy, they finally rested.

The player guards are not as good as them, basically they all take turns to repair, but from time to time they are still worried about being sneak attacked, and their drowsiness has obviously decreased a lot, but they still have to continue to go on the road with the army the next day.

The bandits during the day continue unabated.

Night fell again, and they chose to camp in the valley post road, and there were constantly bandit forces at the valley mouth who did not know whether they were alive or dead, and they were maliciously harassed against them.

Lu Chen and the others found that this time the bandits seemed to have more masked people who were suspected of being players, they covered their faces, and came to sneak attack every other hour, and when they failed, they suddenly fled again.

See this.

Li Long asked suspiciously, "Can players also join the bandit forces?" ”

Everyone was puzzled, Lu Chen glanced at Lin Jun intentionally or unintentionally, thinking of Zhang Ning's sneak attack on his village many times, as well as the sneak attack of pretending to be a bandit later, although he didn't suffer a big loss, he still had the urge to kick Lin Jun to death.

Lin Jun also saw Lu Chen's eyes, and suddenly chuckled, and guessed slightly in his heart that Lu Chen already knew that it was the three player chess pieces he arranged in the cottage, and he also arranged the sneak attack on Xingluo Town, but unfortunately the three people had already left their studio, and they seemed to have been tortured by some kind of inhumanity before leaving.

Lu Chen smiled faintly, looked at Li Long and explained: "Actually, there are many forces that players can choose from in the early stage, among which the Han court faction has the largest number of people, and the lord players choose the court faction by default, and the adventure players have more choices, such as Brother Hong, he belongs to the Southern Xiongnu faction. ”

Li Long exclaimed slightly, he didn't expect that he could already choose a faction now.

Yu Wenyuan smiled faintly, obviously knowing this kind of setting for a long time, he immediately continued to add: "The bandits are just an identity, as long as they cover their faces and are not caught by the imperial court, they can still continue to live as Han people." ”

They immediately understood.

Zhu Hong frowned slightly, looking at the invasion of another wave of bandits led by players, and questioned puzzledly: "Can the bandits also issue a mission against the imperial court?" ”

Lu Chen and the others were instantly surprised.

In the woods at the back of the valley, countless masked men wore plush coats, clutched scimitars, armed with bows and arrows, and a large number of cotton arrows at their sides.

They waited quietly.

The bandits waiting for the mouth of the valley to charge again.

Another quarter of an hour passed.

There was a sound of fighting in the camp under the mountain, and the bandits at Taniguchi attacked.

And then.

Less than half an hour.

The camp at the foot of the mountain returned to calm, and the player guards gathered around the fire, leaning slowly for a while.

Another hour passed.

The bandits in the valley seemed to be endless, and once again they attacked the tent, only to be killed by the player guards, and an hour later, new bandits came to sneak up again, each time in the number of two or three hundred.

Until the third watch.

The crowd was exhausted by the bandits.

The tents of the three hundred Praetorian guards were all around the central tent, and they were a little too calm, but the players did not dare to complain.

In Yuzhou, which was close to December, the cool breeze was blowing, blowing the dense camp tents, making a strange sound of whirring and bitter winter, Lu Chen, Li Long and others sat in the tent around the oven, and they waited quietly.

It seems to be waiting for some prey.

At this time.

Outside, the bandits charged again.

Another short battle came into the camp tent, Lu Chen and the others quietly listened to the camp outside, which was gradually silent again, and the tiredness of waiting was revealed under their eyes.

Three moments passed.

It was still eerily silent.

Lu Chen and the others couldn't sit still, their eyelids struggled intermittently, their bodies kept swaying, and suddenly, there was a shout of killing outside, and everyone trembled and quickly woke up.

They rushed out of the camp with weapons in hand, only to find that only 200 bandits from the mouth of the valley had come to their deaths again.

Lu Chen exhaled deeply.

Li Long returned to the camp tent weakly, and fell asleep, Yu Wenyuan glanced at everyone embarrassedly, and said with a wry smile: "Are we thinking too much?" Hehe. ”

Zhu Hong did not speak.

Lu Chen didn't speak either.

Lin Jun shook his head and didn't speak.

Finally.

They spent their first sleepless night in fear.

Daytime.

Lu Chen and the others followed on both sides of the carriage with tired faces, they fell asleep from time to time, and were awakened by small movements from time to time, which made them even more tired.

Night is falling again.

The camp was stationed in a spacious area in the mountains and forests, and there was intermittent harassment outside, and Lu Chen and the others were already about to be driven crazy.

They don't have the optimism they used to be, and they look even more tired than the player guards.

Meantime.

The masked leader, who was hiding in the shadows, took a note from the mysterious man, and when he opened it and saw the news coming inside, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
