Lu Yuan rode a modified bicycle and took Su Liyan and a dozen guards to the north abruptly.

This modified bicycle, with the energy provided by the spirit stone, no longer needs to be driven by manpower.

Can this still be called a bicycle?

Now it's the easy version of the motorcycle.

On weekdays, Lu Yuan still likes to ride horses, not bicycles.

The speed of a horse is not much different from that of a bicycle.

The reason why bicycles are so popular is because there aren't so many horses.

Most of the horses were requisitioned by the imperial court, and a few horses were in the hands of large families.

Horses have to carry cubs, and ponies can't ride.

Some horses are stubborn and difficult to tame.

So the price of a horse is much higher than the price of a bicycle.

Bicycles are a product of technology, and with the improvement of production efficiency, the price will become more and more affordable.

Ordinary people, except for walking on their legs, it is impossible to have a horse of their own.

Now that the factory on the far side of the road can produce bicycles, who among the people can not like this thing.

After buying it home, it is equivalent to buying out the bicycle, no need to feed it, no need to shovel feces......

If a neighbor owns a bicycle, it is no less than a luxury car nowadays.

For the New Year's holidays, riding a bicycle is not very faceless.

With such a large industry as the Zhao Mansion, it has its own stables, and there are grooms who are responsible for feeding the horses.

Every time Lu Yuan goes out, he chooses to ride a horse.

Not this time, Gu Gaoxu's condition is more critical.

If Lu Yuan rides a horse, he will speed up the horse and gallop day and night.

The horse ran and jolted up and down.

If you sit for a long time, even if you have the best saddle, if you ride a horse for a long time, I'm afraid your stomach will be worn out.

If you take 11,000 steps back, even if you can bear it, the eight or nine hundred distances that horses can't stand it.

Horses are not like cattle in that they are efficient but have poor endurance.

Considering the actual situation, Lu Yuan was forced to change and upgrade the bicycle and add the Lingshi energy drive device to the bicycle.

In this way, in two days, Lu Yuan could rush over.

In less than half a day, Lu Yuan's dozen or so people rode the car, and they had already thrown away the fifty or sixty cronies who were riding horses behind them.

Behind was Gu Ziyue galloping with four guards, secretly following the large army.

Gu Ziyue is such a clever girl, she can naturally guess a seven, seven, eighty, eight, eight, or eight, probably knowing what Lu Yuan is going to do.

Don't look at Gu Ziyue's young age, but she also has a lot of courage, and she competes with her father in this aspect.

Su Liyan and Lu Yuan rode side by side, Lu Yuan told the ins and outs in detail, and did not forget to complain about Gu Gaoxu.

The common people on the official road looked at the car ridden by Lu Yuan and others, and stopped to watch.

Like a bicycle and not like a bicycle.

"This, in the Zhaofu factory in Taining City, this kind of bicycle is produced again?" The old man carrying a bundle of dry firewood asked the young man beside him.

The young man carried a hoe in one hand and slapped the dirt on his body with a strip of coarse cloth in the other, and said, "Maybe, when I have earned enough money, I will also buy a bicycle and strengthen my façade." ”

After a few words, Lu Yuan and the others disappeared from the sight of the two.

Emperor Taizu shouted angrily and slapped the information handed over by Jinyiwei on the case.

"Damn, our grandson, is simply arrogant, and he dares to lead his troops forward." Emperor Taizu burst into a few foul words.

The brocade guards below were so frightened that they didn't dare to squeak.

Emperor Taizu looked at the Jinyi Guard, who was a little raw, and said, "What about the commander? ”

"Back to the emperor, the commander made the lord busy with official business and couldn't face the saint." Jin Yiwei spoke with a bit of a trill.

Emperor Taizu's coercion made him feel a little difficult to breathe.

"Heh, this kid is slippery, this time I sent you, you go back first." Emperor Taizu snorted coldly.

Jinyiwei answered the order and retreated.

When he left the imperial study, he shook off the flying fish suit on his body, and felt that his back was soaked with sweat.

Emperor Taizu summoned the eunuchs around him: "Spread my message, and order the secretary of the military department to come here immediately, immediately, immediately." ”

After receiving the order, the eunuch hurried out.

Emperor Taizu picked up the information on the case and read it again.

Although Gu Gaoxu is frivolous in his words and deeds and does not like to study, he is already a leader in military and martial arts among his grandchildren.

After receiving the emperor's dictation, the military department Shangshu hurriedly walked into the imperial study.

With a plop, he knelt on the ground and performed the ritual of kneeling.

Although Emperor Taizu canceled the ritual of kneeling, his subjects still had to bow down when they saw the emperor.

Emperor Taizu asked the military department to get up and reply.

"How's the preparation for what I asked you to do a few days ago?"

The military department Shangshu said: "Back to the emperor, the military department has notified the king of Jin, the king of Ning, the king of Qi and other vassal kings in accordance with the will the day before yesterday, and sent troops to meet the king of Yan. ”

The military department Shangshu paused and continued: "The Heavenly Dynasty Palace and the Le Shen Guan will send the Great Heavenly Master to assist King Yan, and they will definitely be able to take down the Eternal Scorpion." ”

The name of the Heavenly Dynasty Palace, by the Emperor Taizu issued an edict, the royal family and nobles often choose the Heavenly Dynasty Palace to burn incense and pray for blessings.

The Heavenly Masters and Great Heavenly Masters of the Heavenly Dynasty Palace are all outstanding.

The Leshen Temple and the Heavenly Dynasty Palace are both the highest level of the Shenling Empire's royal Taoist temple.

The Celestial Dynasty Palace and the Le Shen Temple are worshiped by the imperial court incense all year round.

This time, Emperor Taizu specially ordered the Heavenly Dynasty Palace and the Leshenguan to support King Yan, which was also something that Shangshu of the Ministry of War had not thought of before.

When Emperor Taizu heard this, he said, "Tell them to assist King Yan in exterminating the ancient poisonous scorpions, and I will reward them heavily." ”

"Also, Gu Gaoxu's grandson, he will definitely catch me alive!" Emperor Taizu added again, his face full of anger.

Last time, Gu Gaoxu came to the imperial capital and invented the corn pelletizer.

Emperor Taizu turned a blind eye and did not expose Gu Gaoxu.

Gu Gaoxu's temperament, he has been naughty and frivolous since he was a child, which can be said to be inherited from the roots.

Emperor Taizu was not a fuel-efficient lamp when he was a child, and he slaughtered the landlord's small cattle and ate the meat.

Every time Gu Gaoxu came to the imperial capital, he would be so angry that Emperor Taizu would arrest him and beat him.

Hitting is kissing, scolding is love.

Born in the emperor's family, he couldn't help himself.

There is another reason, Emperor Taizu knew that Gu Gaoxu and Lu Yuan had a great relationship, so he was naturally reluctant to discard Lu Yuan's big fish.

With Emperor Taizu's vicious eyes, it can be seen that Lu Yuan is not an ordinary person, and there are too many secrets to dig up.

When Gu Ziyue secretly walked out of the gate of the imperial city, Emperor Taizu had already gotten the news, but he let Gu Ziyue go to find her nephew Gu Gaoxu.

If it weren't for Emperor Taizu's acquiescence, Gu Ziyue would have been arrested and returned to the imperial capital a long time ago.

Emperor Taizu was alone in the imperial study, holding his forehead with his palm, shook his head, and cursed secretly: "No one is worry-free!" ”

With the improved bicycle, Lu Yuan is getting closer and closer to the northern battlefield as time goes by.

On both sides of the official road, the population gradually thinned out, and even the wild travelers increased.

Especially at night, the line is fluttering, making Lu Yuan and the others anxious to travel and sleep.

You can hear the rows wandering in the woods on both sides of the official road, and a few owl calls are heard from time to time.

This place is getting closer and closer to the border of this Shenling Empire.

Lu Yuan looked at these scenes, and had to say with emotion to his daughter-in-law: "A prosperous empire also has places that can't be taken care of. ”

"Yes, brother~ The closer you get to the orc clan, you can't see a few people on the road." Su Liyan followed Lu Yuan closely.

Lu Yuan and the others hurried continuously, and it was several hours, and they didn't even drink saliva.

Lu Yuan is really a buddy for Gu Gaoxu.

"Young nephew, take the middle one at the fork in front." A cronie was carrying a map in his arms, which was given by Lu Yuan.

Every once in a while, he showed his nephew the way.

When Lu Yuan crossed over, he found a huge map on the wall of his house.

At that time, Lu Yuan recognized it as the territory of the Ming Empire.

And, looking at the appearance of this territory, it should be a map of the Hongwu period.

Lu Yuan learned through his own memory that the map was left by his great-grandfather and hung on the wall.

Lu Yuan's grandfather is a former county magistrate, and he got the map from somewhere.

Lu Yuan took down the map from the wall of his hometown and stored it in the system all the time, never taking it out.

Lu Yuan, who had just crossed over, thought it was the map of the current dynasty.

Lu Yuan also became the magistrate of Taining City, comparing the map of Taining City with the map hanging on the wall of his hometown.

The zoom ratio of the two maps is not the same, and Lu Yuan can vaguely compare the results with the entire national map through several main roads on the map of Taining City.

Only then did it confirm that the territory of the previous dynasty was not much different from the territory of the Shenling Empire.

Fortunately, in these years, the traffic roads and city fortresses are not much different from those of the previous dynasty.

Lu Yuan gave the map to his cronies, who were responsible for guiding Lu Yuan and the others.

Although it's an old map, it's better than nothing.

Along the way, Lu Yuan's cronies will also listen to some information to avoid taking the wrong path.

At the fork in the road, Lu Yuan got out of the car and let everyone take a break.

Lu Yuan took a set of gold soft armor from the car and handed it to his daughter-in-law, saying, "You put this on, I won't allow you to be hurt in the slightest." ”

After Su Liyan took it, he nodded, found a sheltered place, and put the soft armor inside his coat.

Lu Yuan said to his cronies: "Last time, did you wear all the armor you distributed?" ”

The cronies replied that they were all well prepared for this trip.

The armor is made from the skin of a long snake, and is currently only distributed to cronies.

There are more than 100 sets, and Lu Yuan put them in the system space.

Lu Yuan's cronies left markers along the way to guide the way for those who came on horseback behind.

……

In less than two days, Lu Yuan and the others had already seen King Yan's army fighting with the orc clan, and the two sides entered a white-hot battle.

"Young Master Nephew, there are a large number of orcs guarding the front mouth, I'm afraid we won't be able to rush in." A cronie returned from the front to report to Lu Yuan.

Dozens of cannons of King Yan didn't open a single passage, and it was impossible for Lu Yuan to get through with more than a dozen personal guards.

"Brother, there is a very powerful big line there, we may not be able to do it." Su Liyan could feel the battle ahead.

The ancient poisonous scorpion is already scarred, and it is still stubbornly resisting.

"We abandoned the car and climbed over the hill ahead." Lu Yuan took a sip, feeling a fishy smell in the air, as if some impurities had drifted into his mouth from the kung fu he had just spoken.

The cronies know in their hearts that this mountain can be turned over, but I am afraid that they may not be able to get out if they go in.

Lu Yuan took out his big brother's phone and called Gu Gaoxu, but he didn't get through for a long time.

It could be that the signal at the bottom of the mountain is not good.

Since this is the case, Lu Yuan decided to find another way and go over the mountain.

The last time I communicated on the phone, Gu Gaoxu took hundreds of people and hid in the ravine.

As long as he climbs to the top of the mountain, these mountains are connected, and as long as Gu Gaoxu fights with the orc clan, Lu Yuan will be able to find him.

At this time, what I was afraid of was that Gu Gaoxu did not insist on Lu Yuan's arrival.

Lu Yuan encouraged everyone and promised that he would take the lead and would never leave them behind.

Lu Yuan's personality, his cronies still believed it, and expressed his original intention to follow his nephew and young master.

Under the command of Lu Yuan, a team of more than a dozen people sneaked into the woods and set off towards the top of the mountain.

King Yan in the camp also sent some people to try to bypass the awkward position in front of him to find Gu Gaoxu, a bastard boy.

However, the people sent out lost contact with the world as if they had evaporated.

On the way up the mountain, I also encountered a few orcs.

Lu Yuan took the lead, approached silently with a dagger forged by a long snake, and obliterated them with a knife.

Lu Yuan is full of martial arts, and he is still comfortable dealing with a few stragglers.

When Lu Yuan and the others were about to climb to the top of the mountain, with Su Liyan's hearing, they had already heard the sound of gunfire in the ravine.

"Brother~ I seem to have heard Gu Gaoxu fighting against the orcs." Su Liyan followed behind Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan and the others stopped and listened carefully, all Lu Yuan heard was the shouting and killing sound at the mouth of the mountain.

Lu Yuan crawled on the ground and listened with his ears down, and there was a slight sound spread from the mountains and rocks.

Only then did Lu Yuan confirm that it was Gu Gaoxu who had fought with the orc clan.

The cronies did not hear anything.

At the urging of Lu Yuan, he quickly ran to the top of the mountain.

Lu Yuan looked at the slight firelight in the distance, which was where Gu Gaoxu was.

Lu Yuan immediately arranged for his cronies to look for the stout wooden sticks nearby, there are many trees on the mountain, and there are such things.

Lu Yuan avoided everyone and took out some canvas, metal wire and other materials from the system.

After everyone found the materials, in addition to the few people who were in charge of guarding, the rest of the people followed Lu Yuan to weave a wooden shelf in style.

Even Su Liyan was on the side, helping to hand things over.

More than a dozen small paragliders are displayed on the ground.

Since Lu Yuan can lead everyone to create it, he naturally knows what this kind of thing is and how to use it.

There is a control rope on the left and right sides of the paraglider, which is used to control the direction.

Time was urgent, and Lu Yuan could only simply teach the skills of gliding.

It doesn't sound difficult, but it depends on each person's reaction and whether they overcome the psychological barrier of fear of heights.

Under Lu Yuan's command, the cronies all put on paragliders, and there was not a single bag.

The cronies ran for a while, plus Lu Yuan hit a storm behind him.

Lu Yuan's cronies all flew into the sky and glided towards Gu Gaoxu's location.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan were the last to set off, behind everyone.

Gu Gaoxu looked at the dozen or so black dots that appeared in the sky, swooped towards the place where he was, and burst out: "Lying mud horses, is this a group of flying beasts?" Brother, I'm planted today! ”
