Chapter Ninety-Seven: Lu Meets Yi Xiaochuan
Xiang Shaolong put his hands behind his back, stood outside the door and stared at the direction of Zhang Yu's departure, and murmured in his heart, I can't be mistaken, I hope you don't let me down, fellow!
......
Zhang Yu continued to walk, and after walking for another hour, gradually there were fewer and fewer trees, and the footprints of human activities began to appear on the ground, apparently approaching the market.
"Phewβit's finally coming out of this broken forest. β
Zhang Yu exhaled, and couldn't help but smile on his face, anyone who hasn't seen half a figure in this wilderness will feel uncomfortable, that feeling of isolation is not what everyone likes, more people still like to see a place where a figure appears.
Soon, there was a sparse crowd in the place where Zhang Yu's eyes could see, and he was moving along the main road, and it didn't take long to see a majestic and quaint city wall standing in front of Zhang Yu.
There was a lot of traffic ahead, and it was very lively, and they all lined up in a long line to slowly enter the city gate.
Zhang Yu grabbed a middle-aged man in coarse linen clothes in front of the city gate and asked, "Hello, this uncle, may I ask where this place is?"
The middle-aged man glanced at Zhang Yu with a strange expression, and turned his head to point to the carving above the city gate, "This is Wuzhong, it's written." β
The corners of Zhang Yu's mouth twitched, please, that's a small seal, how can I understand?
Although he complained in his heart, Zhang Yu still hugged his fists and thanked the middle-aged man, "Thank you, I can't read." β
Zhang Yu's words made the man suddenly realize, no wonder he was about to ask for directions, he waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and continued to line up to enter the city.
Click, click......
Before Zhang Yu went over to line up, he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves, Zhang Yu raised his eyes and saw that it was actually two horses galloping wildly, but there were three people riding on the backs of the two horses.
Zhang Yu's eyes lit up, and he saw that one of the horses had a young man with medium-length broken hair that was different from this era, and he was nervously grasping the strong man in front of him.
This man is a traverser, and he looks so similar to Brother Hu, it can't be Yi Xiaochuan, right?
Zhang Yu thought secretly, and guessed in his heart that it should be eight or nine or ten, then this world is the TV version of the myth.
The other horse was an old man who was over half a hundred years old, and his spirit was a little sluggish, but a faint cold light flashed in his eyes that people did not dare to underestimate, and the wound on his back was still oozing blood, but he did not frown.
The speed of the two horses was extremely fast, but they stopped at the gate of the city in a uniform manner, without a trace of superfluous movements, which made the passers-by present look sideways and talk in low voices.
Zhang Yu faintly heard the crowd talking, these two people are the uncles and nephews of the Xiang family, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu, both of whom are local families and are very famous.
Especially Xiang Yu, it is rumored that he can carry the tripod and is born with divine power.
Hearing this, Zhang Yu looked up at Xiang Yu, and looked at it carefully, Xiang Yu was dressed in coarse linen clothes, bulging muscles, looking full of explosive power, full of height of one meter nine, bright eyes, with a natural domineering, full of a strong young man.
Zhang Yu had just found out that he needed to pay copper plates to enter the city, and he was still worried about how to get in, when he saw that he had the opportunity not to pay the money, he hurriedly stepped forward and talked to the three of them.
Zhang Yu clasped his fists and bowed to Xiang Yu, "Hello, this brother, can I talk to the little brother behind you? β
Hearing Zhang Yu's words, the young man behind looked from the side of the horse, and when he saw that Zhang Yu also had short hair and a modern human look, he showed a surprised look, "Did you also cross over?" My name is Yi Xiaochuan, hello." I, I, I really didn't expect to meet my fellow villagers!"
Yi Xiaochuan's tone was a little bumpy, obviously a little overexcited, he climbed down from the horse, came to Zhang Yu, and stretched out his right hand.
Zhang Yu and Yi Xiaochuan shook hands, with a hint of a smile on their faces, "My name is Zhang Yu, and I also came through time, I came here in 2009, and I didn't have time to change the clothes on my body not long ago." β
Yi Xiaochuan grinned happily, "So that's the case, I came here in 2010, I don't know how to get out of here?
Zhang Yu shook his head, "I don't know, but I came to this era with my own mission, and if I can't complete it, I can't leave it for the rest of my life." β
Yi Xiaochuan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly reacted, "No, what you just said is that you may be able to go back to the modern era, provided that you complete the task?"
Zhang Yu nodded, "It's just possible, after all, this kind of thing is too unbelievable, and no one has understood this mechanism yet, and it may not be able to go back then." β
Yi Xiaochuan sighed, his expression a little disappointed, "That's ......"
Although Yi Xiaochuan was a little frustrated, he didn't give up, because he already had a clue before, about the clue about the box that took him here, the two words on it Yi Xiaochuan remembered it firmly, although he didn't know the specific meaning of those two words, but it should be a certain font.
Xiang Yu on the side had already negotiated with the soldiers guarding the city and was about to enter the city, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised to see that Yi Xiaochuan was really a fellow villager with the young man of unknown origin, so he began to observe Zhang Yu, with short hair and clothes that he had never seen before, his expression was calm and confident, and it didn't look simple.
Xiang Yu glanced at his uncle, lowered his voice and said to Yi Xiaochuan, "Xiaochuan, let's go to the city first, it's not safe here." β
Yi Xiaochuan nodded, "Okay, Brother Yu." Can I take him with me?"
Xiang Yu hesitated, after all, his current situation was not particularly safe, but after all, Xiaochuan was his uncle's savior, and this requirement could still be done.
Xiang Yu nodded, "Okay, but let's go back first and let him find it himself." My uncle's injuries couldn't be delayed for too long. β
Yi Xiaochuan was a little helpless, after all, the horses were limited and he couldn't support too many people, so he still nodded and agreed, "Okay, then I'll tell him where we are staying and let him come by himself." β
Yi Xiaochuan told Zhang Yu what Xiang Yu said, and Zhang Yu readily agreed, but he still made a request to Yi Xiaochuan, that is, to ask him to help Xiang Yu get the entrance fee to the city, but he was penniless.
Yi Xiaochuan patted his chest and agreed, this little matter Yu felt that there was no need to spend money, and said lightly to the soldiers guarding the city, "He is also my Xiang family, and the entrance fee will be waived in the future." β
The soldiers guarding the city didn't dare to complain, so they had to nod their heads and let Zhang Yu go, probably scolding another free account in their hearts!
Zhang Yu followed Xiang Yu into Wuzhong City, Xiang Yu and the three of them took the first step and quickly returned to Xiang's mansion first, while Zhang Yu could only walk slowly and take a look at the ancient customs by the way.
