A few days later, an imperial edict was rushed from the capital eight hundred miles to Yangzhou Fucheng.
"The Emperor of Heaven has issued an edict: Order Lu Yun, the deacon of the West Factory, to return to the capital as soon as possible. There must be no mistake. I admire this!"
"Lu Yun accepts the order."
A huge white tiger was carrying a beautiful young man flying across the wilderness, enjoying the high sky and the vastness of the clouds.
It has been two days since I said goodbye to Concubine Yin.
Although the tone of the imperial edict was extremely urgent, he did not rush on his way in a hurry, but instead felt the vastness of the Daqian mountains and rivers with his heart.
If something really happened to the capital, he would need to conserve enough energy on the way to deal with various emergencies.
Roar!
The fool roared as much as he wanted and ran as fast as he could on the straight.
The weather is unpredictable. One moment the sun is shining brightly, and the next moment there are dark clouds covering the sky and a cool drizzle falls from the sky.
There were curtains of rain rising between heaven and earth.
Although their blood and true energy were enough to ensure that they would not be eroded by the rain, they still followed their instinct as mortals and beasts and found a place to take shelter from the rain.
The rain falls on the leaves and in the soil, playing a symphony from nature.
Roar!
The fool stood under a leaf as big as a banana leaf for a long time, and then rushed into the rain curtain like a sharp arrow, having fun in it.
So unhappy!
Lu Yun watched quietly and sat cross-legged.
After a while, the rain decreased.
Lu Yun called him "Fool" and continued on his way.
The fool's tiger fur was wet from the rain and hung low on his body, but he didn't care at all.
After shaking, Lu Yun splashed with water.
"You idiot." Lu Yun scolded with a smile.
One man and one tiger walked for a long time in the white rainy day, and then they stopped.
A small road extended on the right side of the straight road. Lu Yun looked towards the small road and could vaguely see some low bungalows.
"There's a village here, you idiot. There's no need to spend the night outside tonight."
Hum!
The fool shook its huge tiger head in response.
Lu Yun led the fool towards the village.
If he remembered correctly, when he looked at the map before, there was indeed a village called Fengmen Village nearby.
The rain was like mist, hazy covering the whole village.
As Lu Yun and Ji Guo passed through the circle of rain and fog, the village became clearer and clearer.
When we reached the edge of the village, two men wearing raincoats and bamboo hats walked over to one side.
"Who is coming?"
"stop!"
Both of them clenched their weapons and looked at Lu Yun warily, especially the idiot behind him.
Neither of them had ever seen such a big tiger.
Lu Yun took the fool and stood still. He knew that these two people were the guards of the village.
He raised his hand to show he meant no harm and identified himself.
Lu Yun did not say that he was the deacon of the West Factory, nor did he say that he was Long Bo, the guardian of the Daqian. Instead, he said that he was the inspector of the Daqian.
At present, this identity should be the best to use.
"Daqian patrol..." The two men looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.
It is normal for a small place like this to have never heard of the post of patrol supervisor.
However, after Lu Yun said this, the hostility on their faces reduced a lot. One of them said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will ask the captain and village chief to come over."
After all, this was just Lu Yun's one-sided statement. If something happened then, the two of them would not be able to shoulder the responsibility.
The man turned and left, and soon he came with two people.
One is a mature man and the other is an old man.
The two of them looked at Lu Yun carefully, with a strange look on his face. In their opinion, this senior officer was too young.
However, they soon became solemn and asked Lu Yun.
Lu Yun took out the inspection badge of the patrol officer and said a few words briefly, and then he gained their initial trust.
"The head of Fengmen Village, Yu Tong, met Lu Xunjian."
"Guan Yun, the guard captain of Fengmen Village, has seen Lu Xunjian."
The two of them saluted Lu Yun one after another.
"You two don't have to be so polite. My job as a patrol officer is just a casual job. I don't have any official duties when I come to Fengmen Village. I just want to stay here for one night. There should be no problem, right?" Lu Yun smiled. asked.
Yu Tong and Guan Yun looked at each other secretly, and Yu Tong laughed loudly and said: "It is our honor for Lu Xun to stay in Fengmen Village."
"Lu Xun, this guy next to you..." Guan Yun glanced at the fool.
"It."
Lu Yun leaned down, touched the fool's big head, and said with a smile: "It's very good and doesn't bite."
Hum!
The idiot sneezed and seemed a little unhappy.
"That's good, that's good." Yu Tong and Guan Yun then approached with a smile and welcomed Lu Yun in.
The steady rain continues to fall.
Lu Yun, the high-ranking patrol officer, seemed to be just a young man who had nowhere to stay. The only surprising thing was that he brought a big tiger with him.
Despite this, the two did not dare to be disrespectful.
Guan Yun even wanted to give his bamboo hat to Lu Yun to protect him from the rain, but Lu Yun declined with a smile.
When passing a well in the village, Lu Yun suddenly stopped.
Thin strands of rain fell on the houses in the village and on the open space, and a bit of cold air splashed out from them.
Lu Yun looked at the mottled well surrounded by blue bricks.
When Yu Tong and Guan Yun saw Lu Yun stop, they had to stop.
"Master Lu, what's wrong with you? Do you have any questions?" Guan Yun asked softly.
"Oh, nothing."
Lu Yun smiled and shook his head and said, "Just seeing this well reminded me of the village before I entered the palace. I was temporarily distracted, so don't be surprised."
"That's it. I didn't expect Mr. Lu to be a person who loves his country." Yu Tong praised.
While talking, Lu Yun, three people and one tiger came to an empty room in the center of the village.
"Lu Xun, the conditions in the village are poor. Please stay here to rest for the time being. I will have someone bring you hot water and clean clothes. I will find a good place to sleep in the village for you at night." Guan Yunke was polite. He cupped his hands angrily.
"Thank you, but I can rest here at night, so I don't need to trouble you to look for other houses." Lu Yun smiled and shook his head.
"This..." Guan Yun glanced at Yu Tong hesitantly.
"Listen to Lu Xun's instructions," Yu Tong said.
Guan Yun then agreed and left quickly to arrange things.
Yu Tong stayed and chatted with Lu Yun. After talking for a while, Lu Yun told him that he was welcome and that he could just stay here by himself and let him do his own thing.
Yu Tong then said goodbye and left.
As they walked together, a look of thinking appeared on Lu Yun's face. He thought for a moment and said to the idiot who was shaking his body to dry the rain: "Have you found anything strange?"
