In fact, things are not too complicated.
Even if Li Yi thinks about it carefully, he can immediately draw the correct conclusion.
The reason why he didn't think of this was entirely because he never paid attention to this matter of time and space.
After all, whether it is guarding customs or fulfilling the agreement.
He just wanted to use the original power of this world to find Ruili and leave as soon as possible.
As a result, he didn't expect that the maid Xiaohong who was assigned to serve him personally would do this to him.
To put it simply, after this battle, the situation in Xianshengguan did not improve. Although in Li Yi's imagination, as long as there were no foreign enemies, the only country on the planet should be able to sit back and relax.
However, the actual situation is not like this.
In fact, Li Yi did not understand the situation as he used to understand the background of the copy.
Just treat this as a transition and you will be leaving soon.
If he had understood it, he would have known.
There is not just one human race on this planet.
The race mentioned here does not refer to those wild animals without advanced intelligence.
It is an intelligent race that can stand at the same height as humans, or at a similar level.
The establishment of the four major garrison gates was not just to deal with the Damans.
They just happened to be there at the right time.
Barbarians, Xinga people, and highland nomads.
These three races are very similar to humans, but their differences can be seen at a glance. They are all potential threats to humans on this planet.
Although the battle was ultimately victorious, not to mention the annihilation of all the Daman people, it only killed the legion commander. The seventeen middle-level captains dispersed in a hurry, and the threat from the Daman people was indeed lifted.
But the plateau nomads took advantage of this opportunity and sneaked into Xansheng Pass.
Plateau nomads?
Hearing this term, Li Yi couldn't help but think of the blue planet he was on. In history, there had been a nation on horseback with extremely powerful fighting capabilities.
In the age of ancient empires, these peoples on horseback once swept across the world, established a huge empire, and ruled most of the continent.
It was even called the "Yellow Peril" by many later generations of scholars with fear!
Could it be that there is such a nation on this planet?
But this is a world of high martial arts.
Nomad...does he really have a chance to perform?
Li Yi couldn't help but become curious when he thought of this.
"That plateau nomad you are talking about, is it very strong?"
Xiaohong wiped away her tears and saw that the man, instead of blaming her, started asking and caring.
This calmed down her originally frightened mood a lot.
The reason why she did this was because she had the belief that she would die.
According to that person, as long as the man is unprepared, there is a possibility of success even though the opponent's force is unimaginably high.
"If you succeed, I will send someone to rescue your sister."
"That's what the man told me."
Seeing Xiaohong speaking seriously, Li Yi couldn't help but feel a little funny.
Xiaohong didn't know, how could he not know.
This sentence was actually said to him by the person who taught Xiaohong how to do it.
It's normal for a little girl like her not to understand, as long as he can understand what the other person means.
"So? What else did he say?"
At this point, Li Yi was no longer nervous.
After knowing the other party's intention, all that's left is curiosity.
I wonder how the other person came up with this method to attract his attention.
"He also said... He also said... Huh? Master, how do you know what else he said to me...\"
Li Yi smiled and did not answer. Instead, he encouraged Xiaohong with his eyes to continue speaking.
"Actually, I don't even know who that person is. He just gave me something that was personal to my sister, and then told me that if I want to save my sister, I have to do what he said... ....”
The maid Xiaohong obviously didn't have a high level of education, and the level of education of women in this era couldn't be much higher. She stumbled and told the complete story.
There is no problem that she is indeed the maid arranged by Guo Yunkai to serve him, but maybe someone knew this and used Xiaohong's sister as a blackmail to force her to do what she did before.
At this point, Xiaohong seemed to have thought of the consequences of this incident. She shed tears and looked pitifully at Li Yi with her big eyes.
"Young master, the slave family doesn't want to do this, but that is the slave family's only biological sister. We have been dependent on each other since childhood. My sister's life is more important than mine. Even if the slave family dies...\"
\"Okay, okay, stop, what a big deal, don't die or live, you lead the way, I will go with you to see that person, I have eaten your food for so many days, it is time to repay you."
Having said this, Li Yi licked his lips and found that there was still a large piece of venison in the bowl that had not been eaten. After thinking about it, he stuffed the meat directly into Xiaohong's mouth.
"Well?\"
"This is a reward for you. Lead the way."
…
The place where Li Yi lives was arranged by Guo Yunkai.
This place is some distance away from Hansheng Pass. It is a rural town with beautiful scenery. It is said that the families of the frontier soldiers live here.
It is not far from Hansheng Pass, firstly to facilitate the reunion with the families of the border soldiers, and secondly, in case of the previous situation where the pass was broken, the families of the soldiers can escape in time.
It is also because of this that the roads here extend in all directions, and the largest and widest one leads directly to the direction of the Western Pingyuan Mansion, in order to escape from danger as quickly as possible.
Of course, because this time the battle didn't last long, although the barrier was indeed broken.
But in the end the battle was won.
Although the work of the follow-up clean-up team was much heavier after that, they were all bionic soldiers who posed no threat.
Even if there are no frontier generals in charge, they can still handle it.
Li Yi followed Xiaohong, turned left and right, walked through streets and alleys, and finally arrived at his destination - a large house with a single courtyard.
There is no sign at the door, the plaque above it is a bit old, and no one cleans the door regularly. If you didn't know that there were people inside, you might subconsciously think that this is an abandoned mansion with no one living in it.
After all, the gate to a high-gate compound like this is usually closed.
But now the door of this house is open, as if it is welcoming someone.
"That's it?"
Li Yi lowered his head to look at Xiaohong and found that she looked like she wanted to look but didn't dare.
He seemed to be very familiar with this courtyard, so he immediately changed his question.
"You know this place?"
"Young master, you don't know that this is a wealthy family. I heard that even the master of the palace is related to this family. I don't know when this place started to be abandoned. I heard that it was because this family went there collectively. Let’s go enjoy the blessings in the imperial capital.”
"Haha, there is no such thing as enjoying it, but being a hostage is real. Young Master, please come inside."
While they were talking, a voice suddenly came from inside, and then a young man wearing a green coat appeared at the gate. While bowing to Li Yi, he opened his mouth to invite.
Li Yi didn't move.
"If you have anything to ask me for, just tell me here."
Regarding the etiquette of these "ancient people", Li Yi was not interested in trying them all again. He just spoke lightly and made up his mind.
If the other party refuses or insists on letting him in, he will leave without saying a word.
As for Xiaohong's biological sister, if he guessed correctly, she probably didn't do anything like kidnapping others for blackmail.
Unexpectedly, when he heard what he said, the man in green didn't say anything. He just bowed slightly and said that he had gone to report and left in a hurry.
Then not long after, a middle-aged man ran out of the mansion in a hurry, carrying the front skirt of his long coat.
As soon as he saw Li Yi, he kept bowing.
"It's great that you are willing to come see me, sir!"
Li Yi:? ? ?
