On both sides of the chasm in early summer, the eyes are full of wild green. This chasm is also called the Dagou, but it was a famous artificial river in the Warring States Period.The inlet ditch in the north opens in Guangwu on the south bank of the Dahe River, passes through Daliang City in the southeast, and then goes south for three or four hundred miles to connect Yingshui into the Huaihe River. In fact, it is an artificial Grand Canal connecting the Dahe River and the Huaihe River.This mighty river stretches nearly a thousand miles from north to south and runs through the entire territory of Wei State. It can be called the largest water conservancy project in the Warring States Period.The southwestern part of the Wei Kingdom is the most prosperous in the world. Nine times out of ten, it is due to the fact that the surging chasm has irrigated the boundless fertile fields on both sides of the river, which has contributed to the formation of Daliang City's water and land metropolis.When the gap was built, it was the first ten years of Wei Huiwang's accession to the throne (Hui Wang was in power for more than 50 years). , This diversion ditch has just been completed.After more than 80 years of vicissitudes, the gap is still majestic and majestic-the embankment is three feet wide and three feet high, stronger and more majestic than ordinary castle walls; the embankment is sandwiched by trees, towering green trees, and every three miles There is a diversion branch canal stretching out to the wilderness on the east and west banks; the embankment on the east bank is a north-south official road widened by another six feet, with three layers of poplars covering the sky and covering the sun, and extending to the boundless plains of Huaibei along the official road along the gap; Through the poplars protecting the road, the billowing blue waves of the chasm shone like bronze mirrors in the bright sunlight.Cars, horses, roads and pedestrians walk in the road, the poplar forest covers the sky and the sun, the breeze blows, and the flowing water is surging, which is full of emotion.

It was noon at this time, and there was an endless stream of carriages and horses.From time to time, there are business travelers on the road, and the ox carts are connected to each other, which is usually two or three miles long. The chasm avenue is filled with endless rumbling and clanging sounds, and the beautiful and deep poplar forest canyon becomes hot and dry.On this avenue full of cars and horses, there were two horses, one red and one white, galloping south along the side of the road. When the passers-by looked up and watched, the two horses, red and white, had already drifted past like two clouds.

"Good riding!" Someone in the carriage praised. "Cai--!" The ox cart drivers shouted loudly like a game in the market, and the road was full of bangs and bangs. Even so, the two riders still passed by like flying, and a few words floated over like leaves: "It's not about running away, just rest for a while." A soft and clear voice panted with a smile. "The front is the Yangxia ground, and the hill rests on the horse." As soon as the knight who was going forward finished speaking, the steed neighed when he sat down, and his four hooves spread out. A ball of flame flew out of the intervening forest, and flew up to a mountain on the east bank of the chasm.The white horse was also chasing after him with its tail. When the knight in red reined in his horse, the white horse also neighed and stood beside him.A woman in white floated off her horse, pointed to a tall stone tablet on the top of the mountain and said in surprise: "Wei Wei Chutou? The gap is not over yet, this is the boundary of Chu State?" The red knight smiled and said: "Thirty or fifty years ago, don't Speaking of the gap, half of Huaibei is Wei. At that time, the ground in Huaibei to the south of the gap was called "Weiwei Chutou". In the past 20 or 30 years, Wei State has shrunk, and Chu State has taken the opportunity to encroach on the entire Huaibei Well, this stele of 'Weiwei Chutou' was also moved north to Yangxia by the people of Chu." The woman in white twitched her lips and said with a smile: "The world has changed just after a nap, really."

"Well said!" The red-clothed knight laughed loudly, "I really just took a nap." He sighed and pointed, "There are so many cars and horses on the road, it's really boring. This hill is so good, and the big stone can sleep well." There is something to drink in the mountain stream, and it is much better than the road full of merchants and horses dangling in front of your eyes!" The woman in white smiled, and took a leather bag from the horse's back and put it on a large bluestone: "You eat wine and meat. , I’m going to fetch water.” He took an empty water bag and walked towards the gurgling mountain stream on the mountainside. Just as he was about to fetch water, he suddenly concentrated on his ears for a while, turned around and smiled and said, “Zhonglian, there are singing voices in the valley, which are familiar to me. and also!"

The red-clothed knight put down the bag in his hand and strode over. Looking around, he saw a white tent on the grass beside the woods at the bottom of the valley, a black-covered cart parked beside it, and two red horses leisurely on the grass. Eating grass, cooking smoke curling up, singing faintly, but there are no people walking around. "Chu Ge also." The woman in white laughed softly. "Listen!" The red-clothed knight waved his hand, and the two of them held their breaths to concentrate, and then heard a loose singing voice faintly floating from the bottom of the valley:

After hearing it for a while, the knight in red laughed loudly, and shouted: "Uncle Fan, you are not an official anymore?" The singing stopped abruptly, and a shadowy figure came out from the forest at the bottom of the valley, waving his sleeves and shouting: "On the mountain, is it Lu Zhonglian?" "Sure enough, Uncle Fan, it's God's will!" The knight in red clapped his hands and strode away like a meteor flying down the hillside.The figure at the foot of the mountain also laughed and greeted him quickly.In a moment, the black and red figures hugged each other at the foot of the mountain.

"When traveling abroad, the cauldron does not sing. Uncle Fan is Daya!" "The civilians are full of clothes, and there is no crowned general. Zhong Lian is still in his true colors!" The two looked at each other.Once upon a time, Fan Ju's temples were already grizzled, and his handsome figure in the past showed a slight slump. A large linen robe with a collar was clearly long in the front and short in the back, and his fair face, which had been sitting in the study for a long time, was full of vicissitudes of life. .Lu Zhonglian is even more old, with a big bronze face covered with long gray hair and long beard, and a red cloak against his swollen belly, his figure looks even thicker and taller. With eyes and a strong Qilu accent, no one would have guessed that this was the heroic civilian general Xiang Lu Zhonglian back then.

"Zhonglian, time flies by like a fleeting horse, and you don't feel old!" "Uncle Fan, the deceased is like a husband, and the situation in my generation is gone!" While staring at each other obsessively, the two of them sighed, and they couldn't help themselves.At this moment, I heard a bright laughter flying from far away on the hillside, and saw the skirt fluttering, and the woman in white flew lightly from the hillside to behind the two of them, smiling and taunting: "Unexpected meeting, old friend with white hair , I’m in vain!” Hearing the sound and turning their heads, both of them laughed heartily.Lu Zhonglian was about to be introduced, but Fan Ju waved his hand, looked up and down the white-clothed woman, and said in amazement: "Ah! Is this Xiaoyue girl? The green mountains are not old, the green waters are Changchun, and she is a living fairy in the southern country. I am waiting for my granddaughter." Also!" Serious, exaggerated and playful, the woman in white couldn't help but blushed and giggled and bent over: "Yo yo yo, let me guess too, with a vicissitudes on his face, Jinshi's voice is unique in the world! It's clearly Was that Fan Ju from Yinghou Mansion in Xianyang in the past?" "Hey!" Fan Ju shrugged his shoulders in confusion and spread his hands, "I know you are easy, and Qianliju and Xiaoyue are always inseparable. How do you know me? Lu Zhong even laughed and said: "Uncle Fan doesn't understand, but whenever I have secret talks with important people, she will stay outside the door or under the window. When I entered Xianyang, it was normal." Fan Ju suddenly realized, and couldn't help laughing: "I will never forget the sound I heard in ten years, my brother and sister are good at hearing!"

The little Yue girl smiled, turned around and whistled, and the two horses on the hill neighed and flew down from the hillside.The little Yue girl took down two grown-up leather purses from the horse, and said with a smile, "It would be nice if Uncle Fan had a cooking pot, and today you two are lucky." In the carriage tent, siblings don’t need to refill at all, just do it.” Xiaoyue Nu smiled brightly: “Don’t use it, I’m afraid this wine will have to be refilled.” Fan Ju clapped his hands and smiled: “Well said! Chutou When you meet an old friend, don’t you dare not get drunk? No matter what the wine is, just drink it!” Lu Zhonglian slapped his hands in excitement and said with a smile: “Okay! I just wet my clothes with stinky sweat all the way. This water is so attractive, let’s cool off first How about drinking it again?" "Excellent!" Fan Ju immediately cheered up, "I have dry clothes in the car, let's go!"

This small river next to the mountain is a tributary of Yingshui. Although the water is fast and deep, it is so clear that even the pebbles on the river bed can be clearly seen.Lu Zhong stripped off his shirt two times in a row and jumped into the water with great effort. The splash of water was astonishing, but he just circled around in place.Fan Ju, who was taking off his clothes on the boulder on the shore, couldn't help laughing: "The thousand-mile horse of the East China Sea is a stupid dog planer!" He jumped into the water, and he floated into the splashing water like a long and slender white fish. "Hey!" Lu Zhong even wiped the drops of water from his face and stood up, "Isn't Uncle Fan a landlubber?" Fan Ju said while paddling: "Three generations of ancestors have been river boat people, can they know water?" Lu Zhonglian suddenly smiled and said: "Oh, it's strange that my ancestors were hunters, so I don't know how to get hurt by water!" Suddenly, Fan Ju coughed twice and stepped on the water to stand up, laughing so much that his waist was bent Go down, but can't say a word.Lu Zhonglian didn't realize it, he yelled and jumped up, and the thunderous sound of water filled the quiet river valley with Fan Ju's laughter.

"Let's open the banquet—" Xiaoyue Nu's clear voice came from afar. The two of them came ashore and put on dry linen robes. They looked cool and energetic, and laughed all the way to the place where the smoke was curling up.But I saw that a large straw mat had already been laid out on the grass outside the tent, and the straw mat was filled with four hot pots, one pot of stewed carp was snow-white and white, one pot of stewed fat sheep was floating with tender green shallots, and one pot of Linzilu The chicken is roasted red, bright and brown, and a pot of Huo Cai and rice balls is golden and emerald green; in addition to the four big pots, there is also a three to five catties of sliced ​​dried beef with sauce neatly stacked on lotus leaves, a large wooden plate with shallots and garlic, and a large bowl Soaked Qin peppers in vinegar, two large altars of old Qinfeng wine and a wine bag full of them, it was alluring. "Cai!" Fan Ju yelled, pointing and admiring, "Sisters and sisters are very capable." "Tsk tsk tsk!" Lu Zhonglian laughed, "If I don't meet Uncle Fan, I'm afraid I, an old glutton, won't have such a good fortune." "Fleeing soldiers all the way is a disaster, do you have time?" The little Yue girl smiled and untied the cloth apron around her waist, walked over and arranged a few lotus leaves in her hand by the side of the table, "Come, take a seat behind the lotus leaves. Brother Fan opened the cauldron gone." "Sit." Lu Zhonglian pulled Fan Ju, and sat down cross-legged on the straw mat. Seeing that Fan Ju was still sitting upright with his robes on his heels, he couldn't help laughing teasingly, "Brother Fan is an official official after all." I can't put it open, how can I sit like that? If it weren't for the fact that the straw mat is too small, I, a rough man, would stretch my legs, how comfortable it would be!" "That's right." Fan Ju blushed and smiled. It will take half an hour to sit and wait, otherwise the pressure on the buttocks will make the feet numb, and you will not be able to stand up." The little Yue girl was surprised and said: "Oh, it's strange that the nobles need the maid's support when they get up. It turns out that their feet are numb!" Fan Ju Can't help laughing: "There are no maids in commoner clothes, so they are cross-legged." He sat down and crossed his legs firmly, "It's so real, so comfortable! Come on, open the cauldron—" After saying that, he picked up the thick bamboo chopsticks as a As soon as he knocked on the pottery basin, he raised the big pottery bowl in front of him, "Chutou meets an old friend, and the wind and dust are two commoners, so happy and happy! Do it!" "Good wine!" Lu Zhong raised his bowl in admiration, "The old commoner will dry up with your new commoner!" As soon as the two bowls touched, the two of them dried up.Seeing that the little Yue girl didn't raise the bowl, Fan Ju said with emotion: "Nanmo Xiaoyue girl's name is Man Shilin, and today is the first time I've met. Come on, the old man and my younger siblings made this bowl!" But the little Yue girl grabbed Fan Ju's arm and said with a smile: "Brother Fan, wait a minute, I never drink alcohol, so I can only use plain water instead." He took a sip and put it in front of him. "Hey!" Fan Juda was surprised, "You only drink one sip of white water?" Lu Zhonglian laughed and said: "Brother Fan, I don't know, she has one meal for three days and three waters a day, let her alone, you and I just care about the pain." It's time to drink." Fan Ju was even more surprised: "My brothers and sisters, famous scholars in Nanmo, why did they practice the Taoist technique of bigu?" "Brother Fan is at odds!" Lu Zhonglian said with a smile: "This is an adventure for her when she was young. As a result, there will be a long time to come, let her tell you when you have time. Come on, do it again!" But Xiaoyue Nu changed the topic and asked with a smile: "Brother Fan travels around, why don't Madam come with you?" "Flying wing-to-wing, how can everyone love it!" Fan Sui sighed, "I have already sent my family back to my hometown, a village in a river valley, and a hundred acres of mulberry fields are enough for her mother and her son to make a living." The little Yue girl was surprised and said: "It is said that King Wei Anli wants to give you a land of a hundred miles, but if Brother Fan doesn't, will you seal it?" Fan Ju shook his head: "I have been Prime Minister of Qin for more than ten years. I have made long-distance friendship and short-term attack strategies, seized countless lands and cities in the Three Jin Dynasties, and forged a mountain and sea enmity with Wei Zhaohan. Me, how could I get stuck in this quagmire?" "Okay!" Lu Zhonglian patted his thigh, "Brother Fan is always clear. Wei Guo can't even tolerate a single Lord Xinling, even if you are dismissed as a director, you will not be at peace. Good job!" Then there was a sigh "If it wasn't for Changping's withdrawal, the King of Qin would never have met Brother Fan. After all, it was Zhonglian who dragged you into the quagmire of the Six Kingdoms!" Fan Sui smiled and shook his head with a solemn face: "Zhonglian is on the mend! Changping's withdrawal is based on the fact that Qin can defeat Zhao Ran but is unable to destroy Zhao. If Qin has the power to destroy Zhao, how can Fan Sui advocate withdrawing troops? Kuang Zhonglian Brother came to Xianyang to see me, the King of Qin knew about it. If it wasn’t for this, how could my own strategy not be doubted by the government and the public? In the end, Changping’s withdrawal of the army was a plan, how could there be any other way!” "Wonderful!" Lu Zhonglian laughed loudly, "I thought Brother Fan was caught in the trap, but I didn't expect to be caught in the trap, good! Both clean up." But Fan Ju sighed again: "Who would have thought that the King of Qin would repent for no reason, and suddenly raise troops to destroy Zhao three times, all of which were defeated by the coalition forces. During this period, Bai Qi was forced to death again, so that the Qin State became violent, and he sacrificed himself as a scapegoat. At this time, the King of Qin does not doubt me, but I have no foundation of prestige. Once the King of Qin changes, will I not be the second in vain? To be honest, the reason why I leave Qin is not that the King of Qin doubts me, but because I doubt it. King Qin also." "Brother Fan's words are justified!" Lu Zhonglian sighed in admiration, "Brother Fan, do you know where the six kingdoms of Shandong are most surprised and puzzled?" "Kill Bai Qi first, and then release Fan Ju, what else is there?" "Come on!" Lu Zhonglian slapped his thigh, "Such a fatuous old king, why wait for him to die? Good job!" Fan Ju was silent for a while, and said with a faint smile: "Whether it's good or not, let's not talk about it. Tell me about your old brother, isn't Zhao Guo going to confer titles on you and Lord Xinling? How do you run away?" Have you come to Chu State?" "Let's make a bowl first!" Lu Zhong even poured a big bowl, and suddenly he yelled, "What a fief! I will give you what you don't want, and I won't give you what you really want, so King Zhao , Ande is not as defeated as Changping! If the Qin Kingdom rises again, I think the six kingdoms of Shandong will really be over. Brother Fan, wait and see, there will be a day sooner or later!" "Why, even Qianliju, who is trying to save the country, has no confidence in the six kingdoms of Shandong?" "You are no longer the prime minister of Qin, so what can you do?" Lu Zhonglian muttered with a dark face. Fan Ju couldn't help laughing loudly: "What can I do, it should be what can you do, are you still fighting for the six kingdoms?" "Brother Fan, Zhonglian is really sad this time." Xiaoyue girl sighed quietly, "Since the confrontation between Qin and Zhao against the Shangdang, I have never been back to Kuaiji, and have been traveling with him for more than ten years. But No one could have predicted that the alliance is successful, the allied forces are victorious, and all the original hopes have come to naught." Lu Zhonglian just drank with a black face, but Fan Ju looked at Xiaoyue girl silently, his eyes full of tears. It is doubt and concern.The little Yue girl intermittently talked about the stories she saw—— Bai Qi died, and the old king of Qin insisted on destroying Zhao. The people of insight from the six kingdoms of Shandong saw a great opportunity to restore unity.Lu Zhonglian flew to the state of Chu and invited Lord Chunshen to go north to Handan to meet with Lord Pingyuan to discuss plans.The three of them had a secret business for one day, and Lu Zhonglian and Lord Chunshen went south to Daliang starry night, and met Lord Xinling in secret.At this time, Lord Xinling had been idle for many years, and he had almost lost hope of uniting against Qin.However, when Lu Zhonglian finished talking about the ambitious joint vertical plan, Lord Xinling was still moved.Lu Zhonglian's plan is: he, Chunshenjun and Pingyuanjun will unite the five countries to send troops to rescue Zhao, and Xinlingjun will be the commander of the coalition army; Coercing King Anli of Wei to give way to Lord Xinling; after Lord Xinling became King of Wei, he and the State of Zhao became the axis of the joint vertical, making every effort to revitalize Shandong, and within ten years, destroy Qin in one fell swoop! Therefore, there was the most powerful joint rescue of Zhao this time, and there was also a brilliant victory in which the six countries defeated the main force of Qin in one fell swoop.However, when the coalition troops marched to Handan, everything changed. Handan held a grand reward ceremony.All the way, the road was paved with loess, clear water was sprinkled with dust, drums were played loudly, and the people lined the road to cheer.There are also two large cloths with a full six feet hanging on the archery tower of Wangcheng.Zhao Guojun and his ministers lined up on both sides of the main gate of the king's city, Xiaocheng Wang Dahong in the middle, and Pingyuan Jun personally served as the minister of ceremonies.On a three-foot-wide red felt avenue, Lord Xinling, Lord Chunshen, Lu Zhonglian, etc. were surrounded by the king and ministers of Zhao Guo and entered the palace hall. However, after the banquet began, King Zhao never mentioned the matter of the allied forces escorting Lord Xinling back to Wei. Lu Zhonglian gestured to Lord Pingyuan several times, but Lord Pingyuan didn't realize it.Seeing Mr. Xinling's face darken, Lu Zhonglian smashed Da Jue's big case and shouted: "Stop the music and dancing!" The music and singing stopped suddenly, and the hall was as quiet as a valley.Lord Pingyuan glanced at Lu Zhonglian and shouted loudly: "Reward the meritorious service, and execute the imperial edict—!" King Zhao Xiaocheng waved his hand, and a royal minister read the edict aloud, from beginning to end , there are only three sentences about Lord Xinling Lu Zhonglian: "...to save Zhao Dagong, Lord Xinling and Zhonglian Yishi are the first to be recommended. Sixty thousand households in Haocheng are specially granted as the food town of Lord Xinling. Lian Yishi is Wu Dingjun, and enjoys food from 30,000 households..." After reading the imperial edict, but no one thanked him, the ministers of Zhao State who were waiting for congratulations were stunned.When the hall was silent, Lu Zhonglian looked up to the sky and burst out laughing. He stood up, flung his red cloak, and said loudly to King Zhao: "Lu Zhonglian has been in various countries for more than 20 years. King Zhao may not know it!" King Zhao Xiaocheng smiled lightly: "The source of food and clothing is just a source of food and clothing. Why should a righteous man be so lofty?" However, Lu Zhonglian ignored King Zhao, and his eyes were fixed on Pingyuan Lord: "We have an agreement, how will the matter of Xinling Lord be settled?" Standing up from his seat, he bowed to King Zhao: "Wei Wuji has never been worried about food and clothing, and dare not be entrusted by 60,000 households. Today, I am too drunk to drink, so I will leave."Chun Shenjun, who had been surprised and silent all this time, suddenly laughed: "Oh, this Zhao wine has changed its taste! I can't drink it, so I leave!"As soon as the two commanders left, the coalition generals from all over the world felt embarrassed, and they also left one after another. Seeing that the hero who rescued Zhao dispersed in a short while, Mr. Pingyuan held Lu Zhonglian and insisted on inviting Lu Zhonglian Xiaoyue girl to the mansion for a small banquet.During the meeting, Mr. Pingyuan complained about the difficulties of Zhao Guo, and asked Lu Zhonglian to try to persuade Mr. Xinling to stay in Zhao Guo first, and then take a break.However, Lu Zhonglian changed his chattering and laughing heroic demeanor, insisted on not saying a word, and just immersed himself in drinking.Mr. Pingyuan was helpless, so he presented 20,000 gold in the name of an old friend, and asked Lu Zhonglian to choose a place to settle down as a thank you.When Huang Cancan brought 20,000 gold in front of him, Lu Zhonglian said stiffly: "It is said that Mr. Pingyuan is high-minded and seeks to seek the country. Today, it seems that he is not even good at business and travel. Lu Zhonglian does not plan to repay the army. Today, I will leave, and I will never die." See you again!" After saying that, he smashed it out. ... Fan Sui was silent for a long time, his gray beard and hair fluttering on his shoulders in the wind, he picked up the big pottery bowl and gulped it down, and when he put down the pottery bowl, he let out a long sigh: "There are many good plans in the world, but it's a pity that they don't come to the right time." Time, if you don’t meet the person, who will count? Heaven will count!” "Bird!" Lu Zhonglian scolded with a smile, "It doesn't matter if you are a man or a god, I won't get involved in this dirty business anymore. Come on, drinking is serious!" Knocking the big bowl with Fan Ju, he drank Dry. Fan Ju put down the bowl and smiled: "Zhong Lian's words are serious, and he will no longer be a commoner?" "Don't believe me, old brother?" Lu Zhonglian laughed loudly, "Zhonglian commoner, there is no place to resign from office." "Brother Fan, Zhong Lian is really going back to the mountain." Xiaoyue Nu smiled, "He agreed with me to go south to Chen County to visit a friend, and he will follow me to Kuaiji Mountain to study in seclusion." "The majesty enters the world, the righteousness returns to the trough, and the horse is so strong!" Fan Ju heartily praised and raised the big bowl, "Come on, let's make a big white!" The two drank it all together, and Fan Ju said with emotion: "Today, I know Zhong Zhong. Even back to the mountain, I will send you off for thousands of miles, and go straight to Kuaiji!" Lu Zhonglian laughed loudly: "Okay! You are also traveling around the world, so let me go to Chen County to meet this gentleman." "Great Master?" Fan Ju was surprised, "Who deserves the title of Great Master?" "This person is a genius today, if given time, he will become Tao Zhugong today!" "Oh, he was a businessman." Fan Ju smiled slightly, "Even if he is rich in ancient and modern times, so what?" "Brother Fan is out of order!" Lu Zhonglian said with a straight face, "For more than four hundred years since the Spring and Autumn Period, business travel has flourished. Stand up from time to time, report news, donate goods, and sacrifice their lives to serve in the army. What's more, all businessmen, who travel all over the world and take root in the land, rarely move out of the weak and small motherland. Elephant. All these things, even though I am a scholar, not everyone can do it, so why does Brother Fan care so much about making profits only through business?" "Stupid!" Fan Ju couldn't help laughing, "I forgot that Zhong Lian only received money from one person in his life, and this is Tian Dan, who is known as the merchant Sun Wu. Right?" "Otherwise, there will be this merchant traveler later. Otherwise, would I be drinking the northwest wind and traveling around the world?" "Ashamed and ashamed!" Fan Ju smiled and cupped his fists, then sighed softly, "My old brother is a scribe, but he really doesn't understand business travel, and his heart is really far away. Tell me, your old brother is a best friend in life, how can you be a friend?" Are they two businessmen?" "God's will! Although how can I know it?" Lu Zhonglian smiled secretly, "Maybe, you will understand after meeting this person." Fan Sui clapped his hands generously: "Since you have the eyes of Zhong Lian Fa, you must see it!" Suddenly it was dusk.Xiaoyue girl lit a bonfire, and the dark river valley shone with light.Lu Zhonglian and Fan Ju were still talking and drinking endlessly, one topic after another, neither of them felt sleepy, and before they knew it, the sky was getting brighter. "The morning breeze is cool, why not go straight down to Chen County!" Lu Zhonglian suddenly stood up. "Wonderful! You go fast and I lighten the car, and sleep in Chen County again!" Fan Ju readily agreed. The little Yue girl giggled and said: "Thanks to your good plan, you will be sleepy when you arrive in Chen County." "I don't believe it, who can be a sleepy god?" Fan Ju chuckled, and the three of them started to pack up the carts, horses, and things. After a while, they were ready, two horses and one cart flew out of the Yangxia River Valley, and went south from the Honggou official road. .
