After several days of retreat, Su Fan's soul finally recovered a little, but it would probably take half a year and eight months to fully recover.
It can be said that I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes.
However, before he could react, what happened one after another made him even more miserable.
While he was in seclusion, Gai Nie finally defected. After picking up Tianming from the village, he fled.
No one knows why this rising star of the empire suddenly defected.
You must know that he is a personal guard of His Majesty the First Emperor, and his official position may not be as high as that of the lieutenant generals in the Suwei Palace.
However, he has been with His Majesty the First Emperor all year round, and can be said to be His Majesty's closest person. Such a person, even if he is in a low position now, will definitely be in a high position in the future.
Because he is a disciple of Guigu.
Such a promising person would defect to the empire.
The empire launched a wanted search for him.
That day Ming also became a wanted criminal, and Su Fan, who adopted Tian Ming, was also unlucky, but he didn't know why.
He was ordered to perform meritorious service, and he must pursue Ge Nie.
After hearing this order, Su Fan was really dumbfounded.
He had been in seclusion for half a month, but something happened so drastically that he was almost regarded as a wanted criminal companion of Gai Nie.
Su Fan knew that maybe he could be able to make meritorious deeds, not only because of the papermaking process, but also because the higher-ups gave him the opportunity because of Wang Jian's face.
Otherwise, given the empire's harsh laws, he would definitely go to the empire's prison.
Su Fan was a little dumbfounded. This time he was implicated a bit harshly.
I didn't want to get involved with Gai Nie and his gang at all, but I met him in such a clever way.
Now he was asked to pursue Gai Nie and bring them back. Su Fan wanted to ask who gave the order.
Who is Gai Nie? He is the sword master of the empire and is obviously the best swordsman in the world.
Tongxuan level combat power.
And he is just a focused little Karami.
Doesn't this mean he is going to die?
If you really pursue Gai Nie, the opponent will really dare to kill him.
Su Fan didn't believe it. This was an order issued by Ying Zheng. This was a disregard for human life. Su Fan kept complaining in his heart.
He didn't know that this decree was also issued by Ying Zheng. He just hoped to see if Su Fan could give him an unexpected surprise.
Of all the people, the only one who knew about Ying Zheng's plan was the mysterious imperial uncle.
But the decree had been issued, and Su Fan had to implement it.
I don't know if Wang Jian really thought highly of him. Just when he was about to leave, a group of thirty people came.
Su Fan recognized it at a glance. This was the personal guard who accompanied Wang Jian last time.
"Mr. Su, under the order of the general, we are here to assist you, sir."
The general at the head looked about the same age as Su Fan, but the aura emanating from his body made Su Fan feel solemn that he was a powerful man at the Huayuan level.
"The general sent you here"
Su Fan was still a little confused.
Wang Jian sent such an elite team to help him. What was going on? To be honest, he and Wang Jian met by chance at most.
Su Fan didn't believe that the papermaking process alone could bring much benefit to Wang Jian or the Wang family.
After all, Wang Jian has always insisted on following the path of the military and does not care about the power of civil servants at all, let alone Confucianism.
The emergence of blank paper was good for officialdom, and it was a great improvement for Confucianism.
But Wang Jian didn't care at all. They didn't need the opinions of Confucian civil servants at all.
Therefore, Su Fan was very self-aware and did not think that just the craft of papermaking would win the friendship of the Wang family.
Even if it wasn't this, why would Wang Jian help him?
The strength of these thirty people is really not weak. The weakest ones are at the peak of Waigang. If placed in the army, they are almost at the level of a hundred generals.
Although he is only serving as his personal guard temporarily, it is very unusual.
No one can be protected by these people.
Su Fan knew that these people were there to protect him.
Apparently Wang Jian also saw his predicament, so he sent someone to help. With these people, even a master of Xuanxuan would not be able to assassinate Su Fan easily.
No matter what Wang Jian's plan was, Su Fan was still very grateful in his heart.
With these people, at least he wouldn't be killed by Gai Nie's sword.
Moreover, through the letter Wang Zhan brought, Su Fan also knew to some extent. He did not say how dangerous it was this time.
The decree asked him to pursue Gai Nie, but it did not really require him to capture Gai Nie.
"That's good!"
"But there must be a secret in it, and why would I be involved?"
Immediately, Su Fan noticed the difference.
"Is it because I came into contact with Tianming? This guy contains a lot of secrets, and I also came into Ying Zheng's eyes. What is he planning?"
"In the bright moon of the Qin Dynasty, Gai Nie and Tian Ming escaped from the Qin Dynasty. He should have deliberately released them in order to pursue more imperial opponents."
"Then what is my situation? With Da Qin's ability, it is impossible for my identity to be unclear. Only the novelist was made up by me, but this thing has no impact on Da Qin."
Unable to figure it out, Su Fan suddenly felt that there was a huge secret hidden behind this, and he was now forced to be involved.
"Hey! Looks like it's better to take one step and count the other."
Su Fan shook his head, then led thirty people and slowly chased in the direction where Genie escaped.
Of course, he won't really take action, after all, he knows Gai Nie's strength.
As long as he hangs from a distance behind his back, it will be fine. At worst, he will get familiar with the plot again.
This time, Su Fan dropped Su Pei and the others in Baijia Village without taking them with him.
Even though Wang Zhan and the others are protecting us, it doesn't mean that we are really safe.
After all, along the way, Su Fan knew that Gai Nie and the others had encountered many enemies, including Liusha, the Yin Yang Family, and other forces.
Although Da Qin supposedly unified the world, there were countless hidden forces in the past few years.
There is a lot of power in the hands of the nobles of the six countries.
There are even remaining military forces in each country.
In addition, there are many forces that resist the empire.
All of this may threaten them.
Taking Su Pei and the others with them would only become a burden. Naturally, Su Fan would not be so confused and let Su Pei and the others stay.
Su Fan also has his own plans.
Su Fan has just started the agricultural planting technology in Baijia Village, and let them implement the rest.
Su Fan didn't send his technology this time. After all, words can't compare to the impact of real reality.
As long as the autumn harvest is over, the harvest changes in Baijia Village will definitely attract the attention of the Qin government.
By then, I'm afraid he will be recalled soon.
Su Fan believes that his majesty will also take him seriously due to his contribution to agriculture and increasing agricultural output.
