Chapter 41
Lu Lingqi and others pretended to be refugees and headed northward. In order to avoid being interrogated by officers and soldiers along the way, they took a secluded path and arrived near Xiaopei in more than [-] days.

In the past, a fast horse could get there in a day, but now she has traveled so long with her legs alone. Lu Lingqi can't help but lament the difficulty of the future.

When everyone came outside Gan's Village, they saw that there was no one in the countryside. The cold wind was still howling at this time, which was the coldest time of the year.

Lu Lingqi originally came here with anger, but as soon as she reached the gate of Lantian's courtyard, she heard the sound of crying inside.

Lu Lingqi and Gao Shunju were shocked, what's going on?Why is Lan Tian crying?

The two walked to the door and saw that there was a coffin in the center of the main room. In front of the coffin were tributes such as cooked meat, melons, fruits, and wine. A tripod incense burner was placed in the middle of the tributes. Lan Tian and Gan Qian were dressed in filial piety Weeping at the coffin.

Hearing someone behind her, Gan Qian thought it was another dealer, so she turned around first.

Lu Lingqi and Gao Shun came, and Gan Qian was surprised, happy and sad. She said to Lan Tian with tears in her eyes, "Brother, do you see who is here?"

Lan Tian turned around and saw Lu Lingqi who had turned from anger to sadness. The young couple did not speak. After they watched for a long time, Lu Lingqi led Gao Shun and others to kneel at the door.

Both Lan Tian and Gan Qian were crying, and it was very clear who was in the coffin.

Unexpectedly, the old farmer who was in good spirits passed away suddenly. Lu Lingqi felt that the world was really impermanent. She remembered that she hadn't paid homage to her father properly, and suddenly felt so sad that she burst into tears.

"Didn't your father invite a doctor? Why did you pass away after only a few months?" Gao Shun saw Lu Lingqi crying sadly, so he asked Gan Qian about the situation at home.

Gan Qian wiped away her tears and explained: "Father, he was already on the mend, but suddenly became serious a few years ago, and finally left us three days ago."

"Please mourn," Gao Shun bowed his head and said.

"I heard that General Lu is also there," Gan Qian hesitated to speak.

Hearing Gan Qian mention Lu Bu, everyone behind Gao Shun couldn't help weeping, Lu Lingqi cried even harder, and the anger in her heart gradually disappeared in crying.

After everyone's emotions stabilized, Gan Qian asked everyone how to escape from birth.Lu Lingqi told the story about hiding in the shelter.

Gan Qian sighed: "I didn't expect that brother's shelter could save you, but it's a pity that you can't dodge all swords as Xuande said."

Lu Lingqi felt sad, so she asked Lan Tian: "Since you know that my father is in danger, why don't you try to save him? Could it be that you have no intentions for me, Lu Lingqi?"

Lan Tian shook his head and smiled wryly, "There is almost no one to save General Lu. Even if he hides in the shelter like you, he will be dug three feet by Cao Cao, and you and General Gao will not be spared either."

"But at least let him escape? If we sneak out of Xiapi ahead of time, can we survive?" Lu Lingqi asked.

"Escape? Where did you let him escape? General Lu has tens of thousands of soldiers behind him. Can he become a bandit like Yang Feng? I think General Lu would rather die frankly than live a mediocre life. When he joins forces with Yuan Shu, there is actually no place for him in the world," Lan Tian sighed.

Lu Lingqi knew that Lan Tian was right, and the trace of resentment in her heart began to slowly dissipate. It was really unreasonable to blame Lan Tian for his father's death, and it was Cao thief who killed him.

Lan Tian was very happy to see Gao Shun, thinking that this hard-headed guy would probably follow Lu Bu, but now that the ending has changed, maybe he can make his own way.

Lu Lingqi was so sad that she hugged and cried with Gan Qian. The two daughters who had lost their father were already on the same frequency.

Seeing this, Lan Tian took Gao Shun and others out of the mourning hall. Men can grieve but not for a long time, because they still need to support women.

Although Gan Ji and Lu Bu are dead, Gan Qian and Lu Lingqi are still alive, so Lan Tian can't keep sad.

Lan Tian took Gao Shun's hand and asked, "Are the general's 18 subordinates?"

"Eighteen people are enough to protect the Lord." Gao Shun said confidently.

"Master?" Lan Tian asked puzzled.

"Everyone and I have recognized Miss as the master, from now on we will go through fire and water without hesitation." Gao Shun said boldly.

After hearing this, Lan Tian nodded and said, "General Gao is worthy of being a loyal man, what are your plans?"

"Naturally, I want to avenge the old master, so I came here to ask Mr. Ji Yu." Gao Shun clasped his fists and said.

Lan Tian shook his head and said: "Don't say you only have 18 people, even if you have 18 people, you may not be able to kill Cao Cao, but don't act impulsively. This matter should be discussed in the long run."

Lan Tian was worried that this group of people would follow the desperate move and secretly go to Xudu to assassinate Cao Cao. With the old guard Xu Chu by their side, it would be very difficult for this tactic to work.

"Sir's adoptive father has passed away, what are your plans for the future?" Gao Shun asked back.

"I'm going to help brother-in-law." Lan Tian said firmly.

When Lan Tian mentioned Liu Bei, Gao Shun remained silent.

"Then how do you plan to settle down with my lord?" Gao Shun made it very clear when he said this. Miss and you are inextricably linked. Today, I walked to your door and cried in front of your adoptive father's spirit. You boy can't Regardless.

Lan Tian was quick-witted, and immediately understood Gao Shun's meaning. After thinking for a while, he said: "Xuzhou's people are weak now, so it's not a place to establish a business. There must be a big war in the north, but Jingzhou is the only one in the world that is still peaceful. I want to Persuade brother-in-law to go to Jingzhou, you can go first."

"Jingzhou? Take refuge with Liu Biao? When will Mr. Go?" Gao Shun asked.

Lan Tian thought that Liu Bei would come to seize Xuzhou again, and it would take time to persuade him to make a strategic shift, so he said conservatively: "The shortest is a year, and the delay is two or three years."

"It will take so long? It's just that Jingzhou has a vast territory, where should we wait for you?" Gao Shun continued to ask.

"North of Jingzhou, Xinye County in Nanyang County." Lan Tian said affirmatively.

"Well, I will persuade the lord to go first." Gao Shun saw that Lan Tian was so determined, he felt that the other party's arrangement must have a deep meaning, with such a great talent to help, then Liu Bei might rise into the sky, maybe he really has the opportunity to seek revenge on Cao thief .

Lu Lingqi and the others stayed for half a month. They helped the siblings bury Ganji, and then went to Jingzhou according to Lantian's suggestion.

Before parting, Lan Tian gave Lu Lingqi an exquisite jade bracelet as a token of love.

This jade bracelet was originally a gift from Liu Bei to Gan Qian, and Gan Qian gave it to Lan Tian. Now that Lu Lingqi's father is no longer alive, she feels that there is no obstacle between the two young people, but she doesn't understand why Lan Tian wants her to go away. Jingzhou.

In the following days, Ganjiazhuang started spring plowing, and Lan Tian guided the farmers to cultivate while waiting for Liu Bei's return.

Liu Bei was in Xudu at this time, and Cao Cao called him General Zuo (formerly Lu Bu's position).

The more Cao Cao treated him, the more anxious Liu Bei became.

Qianlong is in the abyss, and it is impossible for Liu Bei to be trapped in the pond of Xudu all his life, until one day the chariot general Dong Cheng came to the door.

 I'm coming.
