Great Han Empire

Chapter 34 Yanzhao Fengyun
Li Hong was washed by the river to the river beach at the foot of Guibuling Mountain.

He was very lucky, caught a floating tree in the rushing river, and took his life.He didn't dare to stay nearby, endured the pain and fled into the ghost mountain again.Now I have injuries all over my body, and I have no resistance at all.Once met by those lunatics, they will not be stripped alive.

Li Hong wandered around in the mountains for more than half a month, and the wounds on his body basically scabbed over.He decided to go down the mountain and continue westward.

Looking at the endless prairie in front of him, Li Hong greedily breathed in the fresh air on the prairie, and the sullenness in his heart was instantly swept away.He yelled wildly with joy, and ran at the same time.

In the next few days, he met many Karasuma people on the grassland.Decades ago, the Karasuma people had to abandon their homeland due to the powerful attack of the Huns and migrated to the Han Dynasty one after another.The kings of the major tribes of the Karasuma tribe immediately asked the emperor of the Han Dynasty to allow them to live in the desolate frontier.The emperor of the Han Dynasty was very generous to these Hu people who were willing to submit to him, and he agreed generously.The language, life and customs of the Karasuma people are the same as those of the Xianbei people.If you don't distinguish carefully, it is difficult to recognize.

During the conversation with them, Li Hong learned that this place is Youbeiping County of Youzhou in the Great Han Kingdom.There are more than 300 tribes of the Karasuma tribe living in Youbeiping County, and the leader is Wuyan, the king of Hanlu.Lulongsai in the Han Kingdom is more than [-] miles away.The Karasuma herdsmen here have a good relationship with the big Han people, and they all treated Li Hong very politely and warmly entertained them, lest they be inappropriate.

Li Hong strode alone on the green grassland, feeling extremely comfortable.How exciting it is to be able to meet Lu Longsai and countless members of the tribe immediately.Just then, he heard a dense sound of horseshoes coming from behind.

Li Hong became vigilant instinctively, turned around and looked behind him.There are more than a dozen horses galloping towards the distant horizon.He quickly took the bow from his back, and took a long arrow from the quiver with his right hand.He begged for the arrow from the Karasuma herdsmen.The saber was stuck in Tuoba Jian's stomach and he fed the fish with him.Apart from the bow, the only weapon on his body is a small ax pinned to his waist.Li Hong wasn't sure what the chasing person was doing, but he always had to be on the safe side.

Li Hong didn't stop, and still strode forward quickly.The knights behind were getting closer and closer, and it could already be seen that one rider was running wildly in front, and a dozen or so riders behind were chasing closely.Those who were chasing behind shot long arrows at those in front from time to time.The person fleeing in front was obviously injured, lying on the horse and shaking from side to side.He seemed to have also seen Li Hong, and he drove his horse straight to Li Hong's direction.

Li Hong could see that he couldn't get away with it today, so he stopped immediately and looked at the knight who was gradually approaching.It was a Han Chinese.Li Hong could tell from the man's hairstyle that he was definitely a Han Chinese.Last time he saw Han people in Li Kuangfeng's team, but he didn't have a chance to speak.In White Sandalwood City, there were more Han people. Hearing the familiar and friendly voice, he almost rushed to hug them.But the other party's dialect was too heavy, and Li Hong couldn't understand it.He could understand what he said, so he raised his sword, gun and club and killed him.

All the people chasing behind had very conspicuous hair.Li Hong just couldn't figure out why the barbarians liked it when the hair was so ugly.Women don't get married and don't grow their hair. No matter how beautiful they are, they look awkward.The long hair of the Han people is so beautiful, chic and elegant.Why can't Hu people change the rules of their ancestors?
The person on the horse finally couldn't hold on, and suddenly fell to the grass.Li Hong was taken aback, and hurried over.It was a young man, just like a herdsman on the prairie, ordinary without any characteristics.The only difference is the hair.He was slashed several times and shot with an arrow in the shoulder. He was covered in blood and was dying.He looked at Li Hong and kept yelling, "Save... me... save... me..."

The chasing distance is already close at hand.The shouts and the sound of horseshoes rushed straight to Li Hong's head.Without saying a word, Li Hong just squatted, raised his hand and shot an arrow.

The other party probably did not expect that a man walking alone on the grassland would be an accomplice of the enemy.The screams of the companions aroused the ferocious nature of the enemy.They roared angrily, and rushed forward with their swords raised.

Li Hong stood up calmly, and suddenly ran towards the enemy, shooting two arrows in succession.The two enemies were hit by arrows in their chests and fell off their horses one after another.The other party was angered by Li Hong's provocative actions.They screamed strangely and kicked the horse's belly fiercely, hoping to kill him in one step.

Li Hong drew his bow again and aimed at the big man who was facing him and shot a deadly arrow.It's too close.The big man didn't even have time to react, so the long arrow pierced through his body.The severe pain made him scream loudly, and the knife in his hand was thrown out like that.Li Hong threw away the longbow casually, jumped up high, and clung to the right side of the galloping horse to avoid the impact.He grabbed the knife rolling in the air and slashed at the enemy on his left.The enemy raised the knife with his right hand and was about to sweep it flat. Unexpectedly, Li Hong fell faster in the air, and the blade had already cut him on the neck one step ahead.The head flew out, but the body was carried by the galloping horse for more than ten steps before falling down.

Li Hong fell to the ground, rolled over and got up, and ran towards his longbow.He squatted on the ground again in a very short time, and shot an arrow at the enemy whose back was facing him.The enemy was tugging on the reins to slow the galloping horse.Unprepared, he was hit and fell off his horse screaming strangely.The remaining five enemies reined in the galloping horse twenty feet away, with horror on their faces.One face to face, unexpectedly beheaded six companions, more than half, by this disheveled burly man.

A scheming man stopped others from rushing forward and shouted loudly, "Who are you?"

Li Hong stood upright, holding the bow with his left hand and pulling the string with his right. Two arrows rested on the bow and aimed at them.

Seeing that Li Hong didn't respond, the other party yelled again: "We are the subordinates of Karawan Khanlu King, and we were ordered to hunt down the fugitive slaves. You hurt people and formed a grudge. I think you can't find death."

Li Hong still ignored him, let alone answered.

The opponent is probably very hesitant about launching an attack.The astonishing lethality shown by Li Hong just now cannot be dealt with by a few people.

Li Hong saw the other party and took a few steps back, whispering together, not knowing what to say.

Suddenly the man who spoke yelled again: "Leave your name if you have the ability, and settle accounts in the future."

Li Hong didn't even pull him, and shouted: "Come here and die."

"Are you a leopard?" the other party shouted again.

"That's what I am. Why are you talking so much nonsense, do you still want to fight?" Li Hong put down his bow and arrow, and yelled.Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the five people on the opposite side turn their horses' heads in a panic, and beat the horses away like flying away.

Li Hong was a little surprised.It was the first time such a good thing happened.He watched the five Karasuma people make a far circle on the grassland, and then hurried towards the way they had come.

The person lying on the ground groaned violently.

Li Hong ran over in a hurry, tore off his clothes, and skillfully bandaged him up.Li Hong smiled and said to him: "It's okay, it's okay, I won't die."

"Are you a leopard?" the man endured the severe pain and asked in a trembling voice.

"My name is Li Hong. Leopard is the name given to me by the commander-in-chief. Everyone in Xianbei calls it that. You are very powerful, and it is not easy to escape as a slave. What is your name?"

"My name is Li Song, and the word is Chang Yi. Thank you for saving me."

"Small matter, small matter. Do you want me to remove the arrow on your shoulder for you?"

"No need. I have an urgent military situation to report to Master Lu Longsaitian. I must rush to Lulongsai immediately." Li Song looked at Li Hong and said firmly.

"You're badly injured. It's probably difficult to ride a horse."

"Let's go. Let's go." Li Song struggled to stand up and said grinning.

Li Hong had no choice but to tie him to the saddle.Ride yourself on a horse that the enemy dropped just now.He couldn't bear to lose the rest of the horses, so he led them away together.

When Li Hong saw Li Song lying on the horse's back, he was in agony.So I chatted with him, hoping to distract Li Song's attention and reduce the pain.

"Brother Li, how far do we have to go to Luronse?"

Li Song didn't answer him, and said solemnly with a face full of pain: "Grandfather, I can't afford it. Just call me Chang Yi."

"Isn't your name Li Song? Why did you become Chang Yi again?"

"Li Song is my name. Chang Yi is my word. Did you stay in Xianbei for a long time and forget the rules of your hometown?" Li Song asked strangely.

Li Hong smiled awkwardly and said, "For some reason, I have forgotten all about the past. So I am very unfamiliar with everything about Dahan."

"So the rumors are true?"

"What rumor?"

"It's your rumor. It is said that you used to be an idiot slave of the Xianbei Tiger Tribe. You are famous all over the world now. Do you know how many people arrested you in Baitan City and Ghost Mountain?"

Li Hong shook his head.He had been hiding in the mountains for more than ten days, so of course he didn't know.

"More than 2000 people." Li Song said with wide-eyed eyes, "You killed Tuoba Feng's younger brother Tuoba Jian, and after you fell off the cliff, there were tens of thousands of people looking for your body along the Rushui River. scene."

Li Hong became curious, "Why are they looking for my dead body?"

Li Song looked at him like an idiot, "You don't know the black wooden token?"

Li Hong shook his head.He really didn't know there were so many stories about him.

"Murong Feng, the Lord of Xianbei in the middle of Xianbei Kingdom, and Tuoba Feng, the Lord of Xianbei in the west, issued black wood tokens to arrest you at the same time. If you are caught or killed, the reward is astonishing. It is a huge fortune, basically equivalent to a small and medium-sized tribe. all of my possessions. You are the money, you know that?"

Looking at Li Song's greedy eyes, Li Hong of course understood and nodded desperately.

"So everyone went to the river to pick up the corpse. As long as you get your head, you get wealth."

Li Song lay on the horse and sighed, "I really don't know how you escaped from that river."

Li Hongda laughed, "I ran back to the mountain and stayed there for more than ten days."

Li Song understood.He wanted to laugh but was afraid that the wound would hurt even more, so he had no choice but to hold back, with a strange expression on his face.

"Why don't you tell me why you have two names?"

"We big Han people are given names by our parents and elders before the age of 16. After we become adults at the age of 16, we are given characters by the elders. This character is to explain the name. Generally, we call each other's characters. We can't call them by their names directly. It is very impolite and will be scolded by others.”

Li Hong nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Then what should my word be? I can't remember it, so I just got one myself."

Li Song rolled his eyes, of course he didn't know.I don't know it myself, but I still ask others, it's not an idiot to blame.But Li Hong was his life-saving benefactor, so he couldn't ignore it, so he said tactfully: "The words should be bestowed by the elders, and you can't make up your own."

"I don't remember anything. Where can I find my elders? I'm going to Lulongsai soon, and I can't tell people that I forgot my own words. Isn't this a joke, don't you think?" Li Hong Seriously.

Li Song was right after thinking about it, "Then you can take one yourself."

Li Hong sat on the horse pondering, and did not make a sound for a long time.After a long while, he said slowly, "It's not easy to take. Let's do it this way. I'm a man of the people, so let's call it Zimin. What do you think?"

Li Song yelled in a strange voice: "The words must explain the name. You can't take it randomly, and make people laugh."

Li Hong didn't listen, and the more he thought about it, the better he felt.He shouted to Li Song, "Chang Yi, tell me to listen."

Li Song had no choice but to yell, "Zi Min."

Li Hong laughed loudly, "Not bad, not bad. Let's call him Zimin."

Li Song rolled his eyes and looked at him, feeling that this man was indeed an idiot who didn't understand anything.But when it comes to killing people, it is indeed invincible.
