    Chapter 305: Dreams and Dreams

    When the imperial envoy¡¯s team travels, the officials along the way will naturally treat them warmly.  At first, local officials were quite restrained. After all, Prince Yi's rebellion had just passed, and no one dared to make a big splash.  But after leaving Gyeonggi Province, local officials began to gradually become more publicized. When they heard that the imperial envoy was Mr. Xiaofang, who was recently popular in the imperial capital, the local officials and squires pounced on him like dogs that smelled meat and bones, and enthusiastically  Almost sticking out my tongue to lick it.

    Fang Jie seemed to enjoy it very much. Although he insisted on not accepting a copper coin as a gift, he attended the banquets held by local officials and squires almost twice a day.  As a result, the team's speed slowed down even more.  Zuo Qianwei Lang sent Ye Jinnan to Fang Jie three times, hoping to avoid some entertainment and speed up his trip, but Fang Jie only said that he could not refute his good intentions, and did not seem to care at all if the news reached the imperial capital.  Those people in Shitai will pounce on them even more crazily and bite them.

    Later, Ye Jinnan simply proposed to take the water route directly to the Yangtze River.  Then transfer from the Yangtze River to Luoshui, and then go downstream from Luoshui to reach Yongzhou in less than a month.

    Fang Jie just disagreed, saying that he couldn't get on the boat.

    It took a month of walking to reach Weijun, Jiangbei Province, north of the Yangtze River. This speed made Ye Jinnan's patience almost reach the limit.  After settling in Luocheng, Zhicheng City of Wei County, Fang Jie was invited by the County Sheriff and the County Magistrate before he could settle down. Naturally, Ye Jinnan was among the guests at the banquet, but he was worried about how to talk about his health.  I didn¡¯t go if I felt uncomfortable.

    The imperial envoy¡¯s team stayed in a compound provided by a local squire, not an inn.  Such a large piece of industry would be too valuable if placed in the imperial capital.  Ye Jinnan walked into his room and asked the soldiers to take off his armor, then lay on the bed alone and sulked.

    Fang Jie's performance these days has brought him to the point where he can't bear it anymore. Soldiers are all bloody, and they despise such unhappy people the most.  But he is not a stupid person, he has already seen that Fang Jie did this on purpose.  Recalling the explanation given by General Luo Yao, it is not difficult to see Fang Jie's purpose clearly.  But the more this happens, the less eager he is to urge her. If he urges her too much, it will make people feel guilty.

    While I was lying in the room feeling bored, the door creaked and someone pushed it open from the outside.  Ye Jinnan turned his head and looked around, and found Lu Ou on crutches.

    Lu Ou's injury was too serious. If his physical fitness was not much better than ordinary people, that good fight would have killed him.  After recuperating for so long, he was barely able to walk on his own with a cane.  Over the past few days, he had obviously lost weight, and his face was as livid as a zombie.

    ¡°The most chilling thing is the bare left wrist that is still bandaged.

    One hand was smashed into a pulp by Fang Jie with bricks and stones.  Until now, Lu Ou has not adapted to life without a hand.

    Sometimes he would habitually raise his arm to pick up the teacup. Every time, the bare arm would pierce into his heart like a knife.

    "General if we keep going like this, it will take at least two months to reach Yongzhou."

    Lu Ou sat down on the chair and put the crutch aside.

    "If you don't take a good rest in the house, walking around like this will not do any good to your injury."

    Ye Jinnan sat up from the bed and said.

    ¡°You are already a useless person anyway, why do you care so much?¡±

    Lu Ou smiled bitterly: "I have already thought about it. When I go back, I will resign from the general. I will find a mountain village to live in seclusion and plant a few acres of thin fields. Although it will be harder with one hand, I will still be able to support myself."

    Hearing what he said was sad, Ye Jinnan also felt a little uncomfortable.  Lu Ou is a well-known desperate man in the left wing. During the several campaigns against the barbarians, Lu Ou took the lead and was never afraid.  This is a ruthless general who kills people like crazy, but now he has become so decadent that it is hard to avoid making people sigh.

    Ye Jinnan stood up and poured a cup of tea for Lu Ou, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why think about leaving? With your ability, you can make a big difference just by training new recruits. In a few years, the general will naturally promote you."  ¡±

    "hehe¡­¡­"

    Lu Ou smiled: "I'm too embarrassed to stay any longer."

    He raised his head and looked at Ye Jinnan and said: "I know that what happened in the Imperial Capital was because I was too reckless and had no idea what the background of the Red Sleeve Move was. It is also true that I was too arrogant and unruly in our hometown, and I did not restrain my temper when I arrived in the Imperial Capital."  For a moment. Actually, I don't hate him at all for being beaten to a disability by Fang Jie. What I hate is that I am incompetent and have lost the face of the general. We, the left wingers, can make mistakes and be punished, but we must not suffer losses. As for the general, I hate him.  I remember I would rather kill Fang Jie when the red sleeves are moving, and then be directly beheaded by the court than now, ???At least he didn't die a coward.  "

    "You are still too stubborn"

    Ye Jinnan shook his head: "Have a good rest and don't do those messy things. The general will not blame you."

    "It doesn't matter whether it's strange or not"

    Lu Ou smiled mockingly to himself: "It's better not to talk about this. The general didn't go to Fang Jie and ask him why he was walking so slowly?"

    "He is an imperial envoy."

    Ye Jinnan sighed.

    "Imperial envoywhat a great status."

    Lu Ou smiled coldly, stood up and walked out: "I have gone back, and there is nothing else to do. But if Fang Xie continues to move forward like this in a few days, I plan to go back to Yongzhou alone."

    "How can you leave on your own when you're like this?!"

    Ye Jinnan said anxiously.

    "I have tried my best to not think about anything along the way, but if you face people who beat you to a disability all day long, how can you still pretend that nothing has happened?!"

    Lu Ou suddenly roared: "I would rather die than be tortured like this anymore!"

    "I¡­¡­"

    Ye Jinnan was startled and shook his head: "I was negligent. In that case, I will arrange for a few people to escort you back first. It will be better for you to recover by taking the waterway."

    "I'm leaving today."

    Lu Ou looked at Ye Jinnan and said, "I don't want to stay any longer."

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    Four cavalrymen wearing left avant-garde armor escorted a carriage out of the compound.  The group of people was very fast, leaving Shangguan Road in the city and galloping directly towards the Yangtze River.  Dust and smoke rose, and soon the group of people disappeared from sight.

    In the carriage, Lu Ou, who was sitting on the back, lifted the curtain and glanced out the window, with a sneer on his lips.

    He wants to rush back to Yongzhou first. He has had enough along the way.  Every day when he saw Fang Jie's nonchalant face, he wanted to rush forward and tear it into pieces.  If Fang Jie was more proud and more arrogant, maybe he wouldn't have as much hatred as he does now.  But Fang Jie simply turned a blind eye, as if he didn't even exist in Fang Jie's eyes.

    Fang Jie clearly saw him, but completely ignored him.

    This made Lu Ou even more angry.

    He rarely got out of the carriage because he didn¡¯t want to see Fang Jie.  He thought that Fang Jie would be like him and would be particularly displeased with the other party.  But the other party's obvious lack of regard for him made Lu Ou suddenly feel like a clown.

    That¡¯s why he went to Ye Jinnan and asked Ye Jinnan to soften his heart and leave first.  He wanted to rush back to Yongzhou to see Major General Luo Wen. He knew that Luo Wen and Fang Jie also had a feud.  As long as he lights another fire in front of the Major General, the Major General will never tolerate Fang Jie going to Yongzhou to act recklessly.

    "As long as the Major General takes action, Fang Jie will never get a single benefit in Yongzhou.

    ¡°It would be best if the Major General were more ruthless and let Yongzhou become Fang Jie¡¯s graveyard.  He even thought that if the young general was worried about the general not going too far, then he would find someone to kill Fang Jie secretly and then put the blame on the young general.  When the time comes, the general will naturally not stand idly by in order to protect the young general.

    As long as you return to Yongzhou

    The corner of Lu Ou's mouth curled up into a sneer.

    The carriage was speeding along the official road. After leaving Luocheng for about ten miles, the number of pedestrians gradually became sparse.  Thirty miles away from Luocheng is Mangdang Mountain. Before the attack on Jiangnan during the Taizong period, 200,000 migrant workers were recruited to open the mountain and practice Taoism. They cut a hole in Mangdang Mountain and shortened the distance from Wei County to the Yangtze River dozens of times.  If the army marching south was frustrated, the reinforcements could reach the river directly from this official road through the mountains.

    It took two years to open a mountain and cultivate Taoism. Two hundred thousand people relied on their hands and shoulders to accomplish such a feat.

    Seeing that Mangdang Mountain was not far away, Lu Ou felt a little relieved.  Just cross Mangdang Mountain to reach the Yangtze River ferry, take a boat upstream for 150 miles to the west, then turn into Luoshui and head south. If you go quickly, you can return to Yongzhou in twenty days.

    He lowered the curtain of the car window, closed his eyes and rested.

    ¡°Perhaps it was because he had been too depressed, angry and depressed for a long time and had not had a good rest. Now that he was away from the demonic boy, he felt more at ease, so he quickly fell asleep.  Lu Ou also had a dream. He dreamed that he returned to Yongzhou, and there was a fairy with gray hair and childish face waiting for him at home. He gave him an elixir. After he swallowed it, he watched his left hand grow back, perfect.

    Then he saw Fang Jie suddenly appear, kneeling in front of him, crying and begging him to let him go and forgive him for his mistakes.  in dream?, Lu Ou laughed wildly and trampled Fang Jie under his feet, and then used his newly grown left hand to slap Fang Jie hard one after another until his face was bloody and bloody.  And the young master with red sleeves took off his clothes and knelt down to beg for his life.

    He couldn't help but laugh loudly, and his laughter became more and more proud.

    At this time, he suddenly heard a muffled sound, and then the carriage shook violently, followed by a sudden earth-shaking. Lu Ou, who suddenly woke up, had no time to hold on and rolled with the carriage. He had not yet recovered from his sleep.  When he woke up, the carriage carriage fell to pieces. He fell out of the carriage and fell hard to the ground.

    Lu Ou struggled to stand up, but his wound hurt during the roll, making him almost breathless. It took him a while to recover before he sat up from the ground.

    When he raised his head and looked around, he immediately opened his mouth in horror.

    The four elite left wingers who protected him had been nailed to death by feather arrows, and they were not alert at all before they died.  You must know that these four people are all veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles, and they are more sensitive to danger than those Jianghu people with good cultivation.  They rolled over in the mountain of swords and the sea of ??blood, and each of them had at least ten lives on their hands.

    Even the driver who drives the carriage is a veteran.

    But just as he fell asleep, the five veterans on the left wing were nailed to death by feather arrows almost at the same time, and they didn't even have time to shout.

    Then his carriage was hit by something and immediately overturned, throwing him out of the carriage.

    Just when he was looking around in surprise and panic, he saw the young man in black robes holding a stiff bow in his hand.  The young man walked towards him slowly, with a smile on his lips.  At this moment, he suddenly felt that the bright smile on the young man's face was as scary as the letter spat out by a poisonous snake.

    Lu Ou couldn't believe what he saw for a moment, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

    Isn¡¯t it like this in the dream?  !
