Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

"You are the hero!"

Hearing Zuo Yunfeng's story, Lu Ming on the side slammed the table and shouted.

"That person even bullied beggars. He is a disgrace to martial artists like me!!"

Luyou: ???

Looking at Lu Ming with a confused look on his face, Lu You couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Are you a martial artist?

Are you shameless?

Ever since I copied the Zuo family boxing routine for Lu Ming, this guy has only practiced it for three or four days. Until now, he hasn't even figured out how to stand still.

How did he become a martial artist?

Lu Yi, who was standing by, silently picked up a piece of chicken and put it into Lu Ming's bowl.

"Brother, you should eat more."

Lu Yi's original intention was to ask his elder brother to eat more and talk less, but at this moment, Lu Ming showed no sign of being impressed.

"Thank you, Xiaoyi. I'm full!"

As he spoke, Lu Ming turned and looked at Zuo Yunfeng beside him.

"Brother Zuo, what happened to that guy later? Did you teach him a lesson?"

Zuo Yunfeng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Later, I compensated that man with ten taels of silver and a long sword."

"Why should you compensate him? Is that filthy guy trying to blackmail you?" Lu Ming asked angrily.

After hearing Lu Ming's words, Lu You and Lu Yi almost sighed at the same time.

This child is mentally retarded, there is no hope for him!

Looking at his elder brother, Lu Yi spoke lightly.

"Brother, Brother Zuo obviously hit the wrong person."

"If I guess correctly, the beggar is the bad guy, right?"

Zuo Yunfeng nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"That's right. I call myself righteous. I almost killed that warrior with three moves."

"But when I got to know him better, I realized that the beggar was actually a bandit on the road."

"He would wander around the city disguised as a beggar during the day, and once he found his target, he would follow him out of the city and kill him and steal his money."

"And I almost killed a righteous man by helping that bandit."

Listening to Zuo Yunfeng's self-deprecating tone, Lu Yi slowly said, "What happened next?"

"Later, I sent all the servants of our Zuo family to search the whole place, but we still couldn't find the beggar."

"I think he escaped from the city."

Zuo Yunfeng sighed and said.

"As for the hero I injured, although he accepted the silver and the long sword, he did not accept my apology."

"Before leaving, he asked me a question."

"He said: Zuo Yunfeng! Everyone in Liangzhou Prefecture knows your name, Zuo Shaoxia, but what have you done to deserve the title of hero?"

Hearing this, Lu You and the other two fell silent.

They finally understood why the young master Zuo Yunfeng traveled thousands of miles to travel to their Qingzhou Prefecture.

However, Zuo Yunfeng continued to tell his story.

"Since that day, I have been searching for the meaning of being a hero."

"Later, I found that everyone in Liangzhou Prefecture respected and feared me, so I escaped and wanted to see what the real world was like."

"Did you see it?" Lu You asked with a smile.

Zuo Yunfeng nodded slightly: "I see!"

"I saw birth, aging, sickness and death, the sufferings of the world, and many things I couldn't see in Liangzhou."

"At first, when I saw people who couldn't afford food or medical treatment, I would give them some money."

"But later I found that I didn't have enough money."

"Not to mention me, even if we give away all the money, land, and shops of our Zuo family, it still won't be enough."

"So I have been looking for a way, a way to save the people of the world, but I can't find it at all."

"Just like this time, we killed more than 20 soldiers and bandits, but it only temporarily resolved the danger."

"As long as the war in Ningguan is not stable, soldiers and bandits will appear again!"

"So I'm going to Ningguan to help the border troops defend it, not only for the safety of the three prefectures in the western border, but also to find the chivalry in my heart."

Looking at Zuo Yunfeng's serious expression, Lu You felt a flutter in his heart.

As a person who traveled from the 21st century, she had seen similar plots countless times in movies and TV dramas.

She also thought that she would be immune to this kind of clichéd plot, but when Zuo Yunfeng really said these words in front of her, she was still moved.

Looking at Zuo Yunfeng's handsome and serious face, Lu You spoke with a smile.

"I'm going to guard the pass. If I never come back, what will you do?"

"If I never come back?" Zuo Yunfeng hesitated for a moment, then grinned and chuckled: "Then I will never come back!"

Hearing Zuo Yunfeng's words, Lu You also grinned.

Secretly summoning the system, Lu You's mind moved slightly, and he quietly took out two coins from the storage space.

"Luming! Go buy some wine. We are seeing Young Master Zuo off tonight!"

"Second sister! Dad doesn't allow us to drink..." Lu Ming took the money and said hesitantly.

"Dad won't let me, but sister will! I have the final say in the family now!"

"it is good!"

Lu Ming stopped talking nonsense, took the money and ran out the door.

Lu Yi, who was standing next to him, turned around and walked into the kitchen, took out four large bowls, squatted by the well and started washing them with clean water.

Not long after, Lu Yi returned with a wine jar as big as two human heads and placed it on the table.

Looking at the two large jars of wine on the table, Lu You felt confused.

This silly brother is really kind!

I asked him to buy some wine just to show my appreciation for the atmosphere. After all, none of the three siblings had ever drunk alcohol.

But this guy brought back two big jars. Who is he trying to force to death?

But Lu You is not the kind of person who would haggle over every penny. The wine has already been bought, so just drink it!

Lu You opened one of the jars and filled it up for several people.

Lu You picked up the wine bowl, feeling very proud.

"Young Master Zuo, my three siblings have never drunk alcohol, but today we will make an exception for you."

"What we respect is not your family background or your martial arts, but your chivalrous heart."

"The greatest heroes serve their country and their people. As long as you have this heart, you are a true hero!"

"I urge you to drink another cup of wine, for there will be no friends west of Ningguan!"

"Dry!"

As he spoke, Lu You held the porcelain bowl to his mouth with both hands, then suddenly tilted his head back and poured the entire bowl of wine into his mouth.

Lu You originally thought that after taking a sip of the wine, he would feel choked and uncomfortable, just like the white wine he had tried in his previous life.

But after taking a sip, he found that this wine was actually like the shochu from Bangchui Country in his previous life. Apart from a very faint smell of alcohol, it had no other taste at all.

That feeling is like liquor mixed with water...

It's really hard to like it!

It seems that the drinks in this other world are just as described in those time-travel novels, really not that good!

Would you like to try making wine yourself?

This thing seems to be quite profitable!

Just as Lu You was looking at the wine bowl in thought, he heard Zuo Yunfeng on the opposite side suddenly burst into laughter.

"The great chivalrous man serves the country and the people!"

"Great! This is what a true hero is all about!"

As he spoke, Zuo Yunfeng picked up the wine glass and poured the wine in the bowl into his mouth.

“Great wine!!”
