Although it is only late spring and early summer now, the weather in Guanzhong is already extremely hot.
In addition, the wheat in the land has just been harvested, leaving only the bare loess baked by the sun. Looking from a distance, the earth's energy is rising, and even the air is rolling and distorting!
Seeing this scene, people can't help but think: Is there some huge monster hiding underground, which is constantly exhaling its breath outwards? When one day it finishes breathing out its breath, it will break through its shackles and come to the world!
The fields are extremely empty, which makes the cement road leading from Chang'an to Sanyuan County particularly eye-catching.
The straight and bright road runs across the middle of the field, like a giant sword suppressing monsters, extending straight into the distance beyond the reach of the eye.
"Da da da……"
On this day, under the warm sunshine, several fast horses stepped on this giant sword and were galloping towards Sanyuan County!
The whirlwind stirred up by the fast horses blew on the weeping willows on both sides of the road, causing the weeping willows to wave their branches as if to welcome the returning people.
No need to ask, there is no one else galloping at this time except Xiao Han who has returned from the battle!
What? Waiting outside for three days? Fasting and bathing? Praying with all your heart?
Xiao Han really felt that Grandma Zhao Lirong's words could express his feelings: I will eat your grandma's legs!
Go home, go home now! Whoever dares to stop me will have his legs broken!
Of course, no one would stop the red-eyed Xiao Han at this time.
Even Li Jing, who approved the leave, just sighed and used the general's seal on his nonsense injury and leave request form.

"Hey, Mr. Hou! Slow down...point!"
It is very inconvenient for Liu Zhi to ride a horse because of his fat body. Of course, it is not that it is inconvenient for him, but that it is inconvenient for the horse...
Before it had even run twenty miles, the war horse, which was about to be crushed into a camel, had already fallen a long way behind Xiao Han and the others.
No, just as the figures in front were about to disappear from sight, Liu Zhi was so anxious that he shouted loudly from behind!
"Xu..."
Ahead, Xiao Han heard the shouting from behind and pulled the reins impatiently.
The horse beneath him neighed, raised its legs, kicked back and forth in mid-air a few times, and finally stopped in an extremely handsome posture.
This nearly year of grassland life and thousands of miles of running and fighting have long since allowed Xiao Han, who had mediocre riding skills, to grow into a qualified knight.
In the past, I could only drool while watching others do the actions, but now they have become commonplace.
"Fat Liu, why are you always following me? You don't have to go back to reply?"
After finally waiting for the panting fat man to catch up, Xiao Han shook the reins with a look of disgust on his face, urging the horse to run again, and asked Liu Zhi in vain.
He was in Li Jingjun's house just now. He finally got rid of the over-enthusiastic Liu Hongji, Cheng Yaojin and others. Unexpectedly, as soon as he ran out, he was stuck with this dog-skin plaster. He even brought someone behind him when he went home. It was really embarrassing.
People feel uncomfortable!
"Hey, Lord Marquis, have you forgotten?"
Liu Zhi, who caught up, wiped the sweat from his face, stared at his shrewd little eyes and smiled: "Just now in the Yamen, everyone saw that I was taken away by you! Since everyone has been taken away
If it’s over, what else do I need to regain my life?”
"etc……"
When Xiao Han heard this, he frowned and couldn't help but look back at Liu Zhidao: "What does it mean to be captured by us? What does it have to do with me? I didn't even enter the city gate!"
"Ahem, of course this is none of your business, Lord Marquis!" Liu Zhi glared at Xiao Han and said seriously: "It's because you came back that I was kidnapped! How dare you say it's none of your business?
What happened? Now, didn’t you just arrest me in Sanyuan County? I can’t even get involved in such an important task as arranging Jieli!”
"Get out of here, uncle!" Xiao Han felt extremely angry before Liu Zhi finished speaking!
If he hadn't been riding a horse now, he would have jumped up and kicked this fat man into the stubble of the willow tree on the side of the road!
What does it mean that he doesn't allow arrangements for Jie Li?
It was clearly Zhang Baoxiang who threatened Liu Zhi: If the fat man dared to get close to his Jieli again, he would break Liu Zhi's legs, or his third leg!
Only then did Liu Zhi retreat angrily and then stick to him.
Otherwise, with the fat man's character of not being able to afford early benefits, he would happily take Jie Li back to Honglu Temple in Chang'an, and then praise him all over the world. Who would remember who Xiao Han is?
"Hey, Lord Marquis, what are you going to do? Be careful! Don't fall..."
"Damn fat man, come here, I promise not to beat you to death!"
"Ahem, I don't! I won't even kill you!"
————
The spring breeze brings joy to the horse's hoofs, and I can see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.
Xiao Han now doesn't want to see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day, he just wants to go home quickly.
So even if there is a piece of dog skin plaster stuck to my back, I can't care about it at this time. The most I can do is go home and close the door and let Xiaoqi go!
Dozens of miles passed by almost in a flash!
Soon, Xiao Han saw the tall archway of Xiaojiazhuangzi.
It has been almost a year since I left home, but this archway is still the same as the one I saw yesterday, no stranger at all.
Perhaps this is because Xiao Han dreamed of it countless times at night.
"Hey, Lao Zhangtou, who's not sleeping at this noon and is running like this on our road?"
Just when Xiao Han was looking at the archway in a daze, several old people enjoying the shade under the archway heard the sound of galloping horse hooves and raised their heads and looked over in displeasure.
However, the afternoon sun was a bit dazzling, and my old eyes were dim, so I couldn't see clearly. I could only see a few black spots in the distance moving rapidly towards this direction.
"Humph, this is now. If it were in the past, anyone who dared to run like this in front of our Xiaojiazhuang would have had his legs broken and thrown out!"
Perhaps they inherited Xiao Han's hobby of "breaking legs". Nowadays, people in Xiao's village like to talk about these three words.
Of course, they said this just like Xiao Han, just talking!
In the past, some thieves who were jealous of Zhuangzi's wealth and wanted to take action could clearly tell others: the people here are not joking, but are really doing it, and their methods are extremely cruel!
Speaking of thieves, we have to talk about the security guards at Xiaojiazhuangzi.
I remember that at the beginning, this place was still an open space with lots of drafts. In order to prevent people from prying, we kept a lot of dogs and sent people to patrol day and night.
Later, with the development of Zhuangzi, many important factories moved away from Xiaojia Zhuangzi.
This place is no longer the heavily guarded military village it once was. The dog that once made great contributions has been adopted by people in the village and has become a loyal watchdog. It is no longer the same as before, galloping around like the wind.
All around Zhuangzi.
Some people said yes to this change, and some people missed the past, but Xiao Han felt that the current Xiaojiazhuangzi was what he wanted.
After all, living in a serious and tense atmosphere every day is not the life a normal person should live! Zhuangzi should be as leisurely and content as he is now.
