Chapter 4: Li Ying, Peng Chou (2)

I don’t know how long it took, the reckless man named Peng Chou finally woke up.

He touched his dizzy head, sat up from the ground, and looked around.

With the help of the light of the bonfire, he soon noticed Li He who was sleeping with one hand beside the bonfire not far away.

Suddenly, he glared at his eyes, and his face showed a fierce look again, and he was about to stand up.

At this moment, Li Ying, who was sitting by the bonfire, dissuaded: "Okay, Ah Chou, your life is for someone else's hero, otherwise you can open your eyes again? They will spare your life, but you still have to secretly harm others?"

Hearing this, the reckless man's face was staggering and he said silly: "Who, who was sneaking? Hey, that boy, get up, we will fight again!"

Li Ying looked at Li He who was already asleep by the bonfire when he heard this, but saw that the latter was motionless, as if he was really asleep...

How is that possible!

Through the contact just now, Li Ying could see that the young hero was very cautious about them, so how could he fall asleep in front of them without any warning? He was just too lazy to pay attention to the reckless man.

Thinking of this, he moved his heart and said deliberately: "A Chou, okay, have you tried it twice? The first time you said you were not prepared, so you were just prepared? Wouldn't you still be knocked over by this hero in just a few seconds? If this hero hadn't spared our lives, our corpses would have been cold now..."

"I..." The reckless man was speechless.

Seeing this, Li Ying continued, "Okay, okay, if this hero had not spared your life, you would have died once, and you would have been worthy of Yu Yang, so don't be ungrateful."

The rash man hummed for a while, then hesitated and asked: "Then... will you not avenge your second brother Yu?"

Li Ying stood up and walked towards the rash man and said, "Didn't I say that what you owe Yu Er has paid off... He just gave us some drinks. You sacrificed your life to avenge him. Although you didn't succeed, it was enough to repay... You still owe this hero your life now? If you don't show mercy, do you still have your life?"

"Ah? This..."

The rash man touched his head and angrily said, "You can just give him back."

"But heroes don't want to take our lives, otherwise he wouldn't spare us. What do you think?"

"Ah? This...what do you think you should do?"

"I have an idea. Come on, let's go there first to discuss it, don't disturb the hero's rest."

Li Ying smiled and pulled the rash man away a little, only a few feet away, saying that he was not close or not far away. He immediately expressed his thoughts to his companions, and heard the rash man making a surprised voice: "What are you saying? Let's follow him?"

“…”

By the bonfire, Li He slowly opened one eye and glanced at the two figures not far away.

Just as Li Ying guessed, how could Li He really fall asleep? He just was too lazy to pay attention to these two people.

Even, in order to prevent the two of them from attacking, which was not good for him, his left hand always held the sword he picked up.

Unexpectedly, I heard the deliberate conversation between the two of them just now.

That's right, just as Li Ying could see through Li He was actually awake, Li He could naturally see through Li Ying's words just now.

But it turned out that the guy named Li Ying really seemed to want to follow him.

This surprised Li He: It is said that people who are rude should not be underestimated. Could it be that there are such eye-catching people among the bandits?

But even so, Li He would not leave two suspicious people by his side.

That night, Li He did not really fall asleep all night. Instead, the stupid and rude man slept soundly. Not long after, he kept snoring. When Li He felt very upset, he couldn't help but wonder: Are these two really planning to join him?

I have to say that this made him feel a little new, after all, he had never taken his subordinates away.

The next day, it was dawn. Li He, who had heard the snoring all night, opened his eyes and sat up. Then he saw Li Ying sitting in the seat of last night.

"The hero is awake?"

“…”

After a deep look at Li Ying, Li He didn't say anything. He stood up and walked to the river, scooped water with his hand and wiped his face. He then returned to the charcoal fire that had been burned to ashes, picked up his own thing, and turned around and left without a sound.

Seeing this, Li Ying didn't care. He stood up and kicked the reckless man who was still snoring on the ground, reminding him: "A Chou, let's go."

"Ah? Oh, oh." The rash man sat up with a daze on his face.

He had never really fallen asleep all night. For Li He's age and physical fitness, it was not a big deal. What really made him feel a headache was the two people following behind his butt.

After walking out of about a few miles, he couldn't help it, so he stopped and waited for the two of them to step forward.

After a few moments, Li Ying and Peng Chou approached, and the former asked with a smile on his face, "Is there any way for the hero?"

Li He glanced at the reckless man who was looking at him with a complicated look, frowned and said, "Don't follow me, I don't need a follower."

Li Ying was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "The little one understands... The little ones are just going to go with the hero."

"Who are you lying to?"

Li He frowned slightly at the other party, and after weighing the pros and cons, he continued to rush to his own way, while Li Ying and Peng Chou continued to follow him.

To be fair, if these two people could make some proof, Li He would not refuse to accept these two people as followers. After all, just like Li Ying said, it would be much better to be able to accompany and take care of each other when you go out and take care of each other than to be alone. After all, Li He and these two people are not familiar with them, and they can only believe in these two thieves.

At dusk that day, Li He still chose to stay overnight on the river beach near the Fen River.

When he picked up some branches from the woods not far away and was about to light a bonfire near the river beach, Li Ying and Peng Chou came to him with their own full branches.

"What a coincidence, hero, we're meeting again."

“…”

Li He looked up at Li Ying who was greeting him, and Li He felt inexplicably funny.

Today, these two people followed him for a day, and they followed him wherever he left. Is this a coincidence?

"What the hell do you want?"

"I just want to join the hero." Li Ying added branches to the lit bonfire and said with a smile: "I know the hero can't trust me, but I think after being together for a long time, the hero will gradually believe me... Let's leave the chores of lighting a bonfire to the younger one."

After saying that, without waiting for Li He to speak, he turned to the ruffian standing by the river and said, "A Chou, come down the river and catch a few fish, we will rely on it to fill our stomachs tonight."

"Okay." When Li He turned to look at the reckless man, the latter had already gone down the river to fish.

Li He turned his head to look at Li Ying, but saw the latter smiling again and said, "Don't worry, hero, I have convinced that guy."

He looked at Li Ying with a smile on his face deeply. Li He didn't even see him and walked to the river to catch fish.

To be honest, he was not worried about the reckless man at all. After all, the reckless man could tell at a glance that he had a straight personality and could not hide his joys and anger. What he really cared about was this guy named Li Ying.

The guy's smile on his face reminded Li He of a word: A smiley tiger.

This kind of talent needs to be wary of.

Half an hour later, the three of them sat around the campfire and roasted the fish they had caught from the river.

Taking advantage of this gap, Li Ying spoke to Li He and said, "Is the hero planning to join the State of Wei?"

"What?" Perhaps he was really idle, so Li He said casually.

Seeing this, Li Ying suddenly felt energetic and explained with a smile: "As far as I know, further south is the Hedong of Wei. Didn't the hero plan to join Wei, so he kept rushing south?... But then again, joining Wei is not bad."

"Why do you say that?" Li He flipped through his three fish and asked casually.

After all, he didn't know the situation in the world after a while. If someone could explain it to him, it would be the best.

"Don't you know the hero?" Li Ying looked at Li He with some confusion: "This Wei Kingdom is the overlord of the world..."

After throwing a few branches into the bonfire, he continued: "In recent years, Wei has defeated Zhao, Han, Qin, Qi, Chu and other countries, dominating the Central Plains, and all countries in the world surrender..."

"So powerful?" Li He said in surprise.

Li Ying nodded and then said in a tone with a bit of longing, "Especially the army of Wei State, which has swept the world in recent years... Heroes may not know that a few years ago, Wei Qi, the Wuzhi king of Wei State, trained an extremely powerful army, known as the "Wuzhang". This army is invincible and defeated all the countries. All countries cannot resist, so they had to surrender to Wei State and respect Wei State as the overlord... I have seen this army, and less than ten thousand people defeated the coalition forces of Zhao and Han countries in less than ten thousand people, which is really invincible."

As he said that, he turned around and flattered Li He again and said, "It is rumored that the 'wuzhang' cannot enter without a brave man. However, with the ability of a hero, I believe that he will be able to gain a place in the 'wuzhang'. However, the hero is not a Wei person, nor is it a prince or aristocrat. If the wuzhang people occupy a high position, they will be envied. If the hero is willing to accept me as a follower, I will definitely be able to help you."

Li He glanced at Li Ying, who spared no effort to recommend himself, and reached out to turn the grilled fish over.

Although he never showed it on his face, he was undeniable that he was a little moved.

The next morning, Li He continued to rush south, while Li Ying and Peng Chou followed him.

What is different from yesterday is that Li Ying and the other two significantly shortened the distance with Li He, and Li He didn't say much about this.

Putting aside Peng Chou, who complained from beginning to end, Li He and Li Ying had a tacit understanding in their hearts, and they were only a while away from getting along to slowly cultivate their trust.

Neither of them was in a hurry about this.

A few days later, the three of them crossed the border between Han and Wei and truly set foot in the Hedong County of Wei.

The destination of the three is the capital of Hedong County, Anyi.
