Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

Roast chicken, beef, moon cakes, yellow noodle buns...

Looking at the food on the table that Zuo Yunfeng brought, Lu You and his two siblings all had strange looks on their faces.

It seemed like they had just eaten these things last night...this morning...at noon...

"what happened?"

Seeing the expressions of Lu You and the other two, Zuo Yunfeng asked in confusion.

“Is there anything wrong with this dish?”

Lu You shook his head slightly when he heard this: "It's okay, but we are a little tired of eating these things..."

[Negative emotions from Zuo Yunfeng +30, +30, +30...]

Tired of this?

Zuo Yunfeng's mouth twitched as he complained inwardly.

Although he came from a wealthy family, he had traveled so far and had seen the hardships of the people.

He had also been to Lu You's home two days ago. Looking at the neat and simple courtyard, he roughly guessed the quality of life of Lu You's family.

During this time of scarcity, ordinary farmers find it difficult to even have a full meal, but Lu You actually said that he was tired of eating fish and meat?

This person just moved to a new place, why did he suddenly become so pretentious?

But then he thought again, this Lu You not only learned Zuo family boxing, but also killed several well-trained soldiers and bandits alone, so Zuo Yunfeng felt relieved.

These three siblings are unusual!

At the dinner table, Lu Yi and Zuo Yunfeng sat opposite each other, eating politely and properly.

As for Luming, he was eating yellow flour buns with beef in big mouthfuls.

Lu Ming could finish that fist-sized steamed bun in just three or four bites, which made Lu You secretly marvel.

As he made more money these days, Lu Ming's appetite also gradually increased.

Before, Lu You was worried that he would eat too much, but now she understood.

My naughty little brother has probably never had enough to eat since he was a child!

Before, when everyone was eating, Lu Ming was always the first one to finish his portion and then go to work.

It's simply because he is too sensible and doesn't want to eat more or take more.

And now, knowing that there is no shortage of food and drink at home, he can finally eat as much as he wants without restraint.

At this moment, Zuo Yunfeng was also shocked by Lu Ming's eating style.

Feeling Zuo Yunfeng's gaze, Lu Ming spoke casually while chewing something.

"Brother Zuo, my sister and I are both farmers, so we don't have to be so particular about eating. Don't laugh at me."

"It's okay!" Zuo Yunfeng chuckled and said, "When I'm at home, I always hang out with the guards. They eat much more lavishly than you."

Hearing this, Lu Ming squinted his eyes and chuckled, then started to "fight" with the steamed bun in his hand again.

On the side, Lu Yi glanced at Lu Ming indifferently.

"Brother! You can't represent me and my second sister. We are still quite particular."

Hearing Lu Yi's words, Zuo Yunfeng suppressed his smile and turned to look at Lu You.

"Your two brothers are quite interesting."

Lu You was chewing a piece of chicken wing in small bites, and snorted when he heard Zuo Yunfeng's words.

"How can you be more interesting?"

"A young man from a rich family doesn't enjoy his life at home, but comes to our poor and remote place to be a knight."

"Now that you've risked your life to kill soldiers and bandits, not only have you gotten no money, but you've also lost your fame. Now that you know how dangerous the world is, you're finally going home, right?"

[Negative emotions from Zuo Yunfeng +15, +15, +15...]

"Do you have to be so sarcastic when you talk?"

Zuo Yunfeng looked at Lu You helplessly and said.

"Besides, who told you that I was leaving here to go home?"

"Where else can you go if not home?" Lu You chuckled and said, "These days, there is chaos and war. A war may break out at any time. If you don't hurry home to be your eldest son, do you still plan to go to the border to make achievements?"

"Yes!" Zuo Yunfeng answered casually.

Lu You's action of tearing the chicken wings paused slightly. He looked up and saw Zuo Yunfeng looking at him with a smile.

"Don't be ridiculous! The bandits have already said that the border troops at Ningguan in Xijiang Prefecture have been dispersed by the Jin Kingdom. If you go now..."

Lu You said with a sneer, but his voice became lower and lower, and finally he stopped.

"No...are you really going to Ningguan County, Xijiang Prefecture?"

"Yes!" Zuo Yunfeng said with a smile.

At this time, Lu Yi and Lu Ming also felt something was wrong and put down their bowls and chopsticks.

Although he had only met Zuo Yunfeng a few times, this man saved Lu You's life after all.

Moreover, Zuo Yunfeng had an undisguised carefree and upright character, which made them very impressed.

So when they heard that Zuo Yunfeng wanted to go to the chaotic border, they were both a little worried.

"Brother Zuo, although there is no news yet that the border has been lost, but with those soldiers and bandits, you should understand that the situation over there must be very chaotic."

"To put it bluntly, even if you are a warrior, you may not survive once you enter the battlefield."

"I hope you can think twice about this matter!"

Although Lu Yi's words were a bit vague, as if he was giving a casual warning, Lu You understood that the real situation was much more confusing than what the soldiers and bandits said.

The soldiers and bandits who were killed a few days ago...

The 800-mile express they encountered when they first entered the city...

The most important thing is the third prince Wu Quanwen whom she and Lu Yi met at Shangpin Academy!

Lu You heard clearly at that time that when Wu Quanwen's personal guards appeared, they shouted "Urgent news from Xijiang Prefecture"!

After Wu Quanwen saw the letter, his face changed drastically. He rode away on his horse, looking very anxious.

Although Lu You didn't know the content of the letter, just looking at Wu Quanwen's reaction and combining it with the explanation of this group of soldiers and bandits, the war situation in Xijiang Prefecture was really not optimistic.

This is also the important reason why he must move his family to Qingshi Town.

Although Qingshi Town is only a small town, it is protected by city walls. If a war breaks out, even if it cannot resist the foreign enemies, it can still give itself time to react and gain a greater chance of survival.

But in the face of Lu You and Lu Yi's persuasion, Zuo Yunfeng shook his head slightly.

"Even if it's dangerous, that's why we have to go!"

Zuo Yunfeng said lightly.

"I have been practicing martial arts since I was young, and my dream since childhood has been to become a chivalrous knight."

"And our Zuo family has some roots in Liangzhou Prefecture, so wherever I go, everyone will give me some face."

"I don't know how many years ago, but everyone started calling me Zuo Shao Xia when they saw me."

"At that time, I was also very proud of myself and felt that I had made a name for myself in society."

"But one time, I encountered a warrior chasing a beggar with a knife. When I heard the beggar's screams, I drew my knife and rushed towards the warrior."

"My skills are pretty good. I cut off the warrior's sword with just three moves and kicked him to the ground, causing him to spit blood."

"At that moment, I felt like I was a hero!"
