The Eternals Who Travel the Worlds

What Lu Yan didn't expect was...

He took the initiative to find a topic, but these soldiers did not pay any attention to him.

Instead, he ate faster and didn’t even drink anymore.

In a blink of an eye, these soldiers finished their food, paid and left.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yan raised his eyebrows.

Then he asked the waiter who was clearing away the tables and bowls: "May I ask where this is?"

The waiter is quite enthusiastic.

While tidying up, he responded: "This is Yema Ridge. The young master must have been kidnapped, right?"

The waiter in the shop often interacts with people from all over the world, and he still has a good eye for people.

After all, although Lu Yan's clothes were very shabby, he didn't look like someone doing hard work, either in appearance or temperament.

Lu Yan just smiled and didn't bother to explain anything.

He thought about it in his mind, and he really had no impression of the place name Yema Ridge.

Then he asked: "Which prince's territory is it?"

After the waiter cleared the tables and bowls, he didn't see any customers, so he simply sat on a stool and chatted with Lu Yan.

"It's not the princes, it's the area under General Li's jurisdiction."

"General Soldier Li of Chentangguan?"

The commander-in-chief named Li, Lu Yan's first reaction was Li Jing.

The waiter in the shop praised: "Young master is really well-informed."

"I heard that General Li's army is rigorous in running the army and the people live in peace. Why are those soldiers..."

Lu Yan showed just the right amount of doubt.

The waiter looked around, pulled the stool closer, and said cautiously.

"Young master, you don't know something..."

…

"……I see."

Lu Yan nodded understandingly.

The waiter in this shop was quite well-informed. After listening to his story for a while, Lu Yan also had a certain understanding of the current situation.

To put it simply, after General Li's third son was born, he was kidnapped by a bald man who didn't know where he came from. This caused General Li to become furious and ordered a thorough search of all the bald men in Chentangguan to find his son.

return.

Unfortunately, more than half a month has passed and there is no news about his son.

Just in time for the urgent news, the four hundred princes in the world rebelled.

As a last resort, we could only put the matter aside for the time being and start exercising the three armies to guard the passes.

And this Yema Ridge is an important place that military strategists must fight for. From time to time, I heard of small-scale fighting taking place. It is not surprising why the patrolling soldiers were so vigilant.

This is the situation.

But the doubts in Lu Yan's heart became even more intense.

This is really weird. If the plot of the original work continues, many princes should indeed be against business at this time.

But now the original plot has long since collapsed, and grass is probably growing on Emperor Xin's grave. Why are there still so many princes rebelling?

Moreover, even according to the original plot, if there is a war in Chentangguan, it will have to be pushed forward six or seven years, and it will not happen until Nezha grows up.

How could a war start now? It seems that the friction is quite fierce?

Just as Lu Yan was pondering this issue, a large group of soldiers suddenly appeared on the official road next to the post pavilion.

This group of people was well-organized and well-armed, and it looked like they were well-trained.

Among them, the three soldiers who were leading the way were the three soldiers who had just eaten in this post.

The waiter had never seen such a scene before, so he quickly ran to the kitchen to avoid the trouble.

"General, that's the man."

A soldier pointed at Lu Yan and reported to the middle-aged man riding a big horse.

In this period of military control, in line with the principle of preferring to kill the wrongdoer, any suspicious person must be controlled.

The general was about to have Lu Yan arrested when he suddenly seemed to remember something.

I got off my horse and walked closer to the post pavilion to take a closer look. I found that the more I looked at them, the more they looked like each other.

He quickly approached the post pavilion and asked with a slight hesitation: "I dare to ask...but in front of Master Lu?"

"What?" Lu Yan was stunned when he heard the general's words.

"It's really Master Lu."

The general quickly knelt down on one knee and said: "General Li Xun, I have seen the Grand Master. Please forgive me for not being able to perform a full ceremony because my armor is on me."

Lu Yan pointed at himself.

"The Grand Master Lu you are talking about is me?"

Li Xun nodded hurriedly and explained.

"The last general had the honor to see the portrait of the Grand Master in General Li's residence. His Majesty once said that the Grand Master left the court to inspect the world on His Majesty's behalf. When officials from all over the country saw the Grand Master, it was as if His Majesty was in person."

Lu Yan nodded thoughtfully.

He probably understood what was going on.

At that time, the boy from Yin Jiao did say that he wanted him to be the Grand Master, but he didn't pay much attention to it and left Chaoge directly.

Unexpectedly, Yin Jiao actually insisted on giving him the official position of Grand Master.

"Grand Master, there are rebels here. It is not advisable to stay for a long time. Please follow the general back to the pass."

What Li Xun said is true.

Because those princes rebelled for some reason, almost every day princes stood up to raise the banner of rebellion.

Moreover, Emperor Xin had not yet had time to control the four major princes like in the original work, so after he came to power in Yinjiao, the pressure he faced was greater than imagined.

During this period, the world was raging with war, and Chengtang Sheji was in a state of crumbling.

Lu Yan nodded, and he was going to go to Li Jing first to ask about the situation.

He had a pretty good impression of that boy from Yin Jiao, so it wasn't like he couldn't help him.

What a coincidence, just when Lu Yan was about to leave.

Suddenly, a loud shouting of death rang out in the distance.

I saw smoke and dust everywhere on the official road, and there were many shadows of people.

This number was several times larger than the team led by Li Xun.

However, the armors of these men and horses were not uniform, and they looked like a patchwork of miscellaneous troops.

Seeing this, Li Xun quickly stood up and ordered solemnly: "Er baby, you go back to the camp to ask for help. The rest of the people will form an formation and follow me to protect the Grand Master!"

Judging from Li Xun's orderly response, it was obvious that this was not the first time he had encountered this kind of encounter.

There is nothing we can do about it. After all, princes from every town are spread all over the world. It is impossible to build a perfect line of defense. We can only suppress the trouble wherever it occurs.

"kill!!!"

A large group of soldiers rushed over.

Although this team is a ragtag group of people, there are too many people after all.

In the age of cold weapons, the deterrent effect of overwhelming numbers is still very strong.

Lu Yan noticed that there were beads of sweat on Li Xun's face while riding the horse.

Soon, they were fighting hand to hand.

In an instant, people were on their backs, and blood was everywhere.

Li Xun and his subordinates were well-trained and had the upper hand at first.

However, the number of people was too small after all. It was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands, and the casualties began to increase.

The rebels noticed that Li Xun and the others were clearly struggling to protect the post, and they guessed that there must be some important person inside.

He immediately turned his spearhead and forced his way through the defense line.

Seeing a large number of rebels rushing into the post pavilion, Li Xun's face changed drastically: "No!"
