I would like to hear the details

From Xudu to Haixi, you need to pass through the three states.

Starting from Xudu, passing through Chenliu, going to Peiguo, or entering Guangling from Xiapi, or going straight to Haixi via Donghai County. This long road does not seem so pleasant to walk. Although Cao Cao has taken charge of the court, We have tried our best to restore the vitality of various places. But along the way, looking around, we can see corpses everywhere and a desolate look. The situation around the town may be better, but once you are far away from the town, the situation becomes worse. Abandoned villages , ruined walls; barren land, overgrown with weeds... simple graves can be seen everywhere. What's more, if you walk along the way, you may not see anyone for an hour or two, only pale and withered bones.

Dianman and Xu Yi were very interested at first.

But after walking for two or three days, I became a little silent!

Late autumn is bleak, with the land everywhere looking yellow and ruined. Coupled with those scenes, it gives rise to a strong feeling.

The two of them no longer laughed. Most of the time, they would look at the desolate scenery in silence, and sometimes they would even think about it along the way.

Cao Peng didn't bother them, let alone make fun of them.

He just observed quietly, unwilling to interrupt Dianman and Xu Yi's thoughts.

Some people say that hiking can make people grow. But the problem is, it depends on how you go hiking...

There were crowds of cars and horses along the way, and wherever they passed, there were welcomes and greetings. Wine and delicacies were served, and singing and dancing were celebrated! Most of what you see like this is just an illusion.

Only by calming down and moving forward silently can we see the truest world.

Neither Deng Ji nor Puyang Kai were the kind of people who liked flattery. The same was generally true for Xia Houlan of Zhou Cang.

Cao Peng didn't want to disturb them, so he gave Dianman and Xu Yi space to think.

On the fourth day of the trip, the carriages and horses crossed the Langtang Canal and arrived at Gaoyang Pavilion. It was very close to Jiwu, and Dianman suddenly proposed that he wanted to go home and have a look.

The four-day trip made Noriman seem to have matured a lot.

After Cao Peng informed Dian Man of Dian Man's request, he agreed to his request.

"Third brother, shall I go with you?"

"No need, you guys have a good rest here. I'll be back early tomorrow morning at the latest."

Look at the sky, it's really late.

Cao Peng didn't force anything, so he nodded in agreement.

Everyone decided to stay at Gaoyang Pavilion that night and wait for Dianman to come back.

We spent four days at dawn and stayed overnight, and everything we saw was desolate. It was also a huge drain on people's mental and physical strength. Everyone seemed very tired, so they had dinner and went to bed early. Cao Peng didn't rest, so he went to bed early. Together with Xiahou Lan and Zhou Cang, they arranged the guard duty. Yes, Gaoyang Pavilion is located between Yongqiu and Yuxian County, and it is said to be quite safe. But the problem is, because it is located between the two counties, it is difficult to manage It seems very lax. Neither Yongqiu nor Yu County seems to be particularly concerned about Gaoyang Pavilion.

The director of Gaoyang Pavilion was a local elder, and he also told Cao Peng privately: Be more careful.

What to be careful about?

He didn't say it, but everyone knew it.

Just by looking at the dilapidated Gaoyang Pavilion, you can get a general idea.

If the security here was very good, given the geographical location of Gaoyang Pavilion, the scene in front of us would never be like this. This shows that Gaoyang Pavilion is not peaceful. But it doesn't matter. Since the chief of the pavilion is still there, it means that even if Gaoyang Pavilion is in chaos, Also very limited chaos.

Otherwise, this Gaoyang Pavilion would have ceased to exist long ago...

Deng Ji was reading official documents in his room, seizing every moment to understand Haixi's situation.

Cao Peng became a bookboy and waited by the side. He read "On" for a while, felt a little tired, and walked out of the room.

Deng Ji didn't care about him because he knew that Cao Peng didn't need him to worry about him.

There was already a bit of chill in the bleak night wind.

Cao Peng subconsciously wrapped his robe and prepared it under the corridor. In the courtyard, there were dead grass and vines, a few wisteria flowers climbing along the courtyard wall, and a few small white flowers blooming. This kind of wisteria flower,

Cao Peng had never seen it in his previous life. According to the old pavilion chief, this is an extremely common plant in the local area that blooms at the turn of autumn and winter. Whenever the wisteria blooms, he knows that winter is coming.

In the courtyard, I practiced Zhuang Kung Fu for a while!

The spirit has also become strong...

Since the time when his Qi entered his bones, Cao Peng fell into a relatively slow growth period.

The continuous strengthening of bones requires a large amount of energy and blood nourishment. Only when the bones reach a certain degree of strength can they continue to grow. This is an inevitable stage of bone reshaping, so Cao Peng is not in a hurry. Although he has traveled a long distance,

I can't practice Kung Fu like before, but I can find time every day to practice Zhuang Kung Fu for a while, and the effect is quite good. Only when the muscles and meridians are stretched can the body be strong.

When it comes to practicing Qigong, the most important thing is an attitude.

Well, you can always squeeze out some time. It just depends on whether you are willing...

Cao Peng is well aware of his situation. All things like the overall situation and talents are just a piece of shit. It's okay to show off occasionally, but over time, sooner or later, people will see that he is a hollow carrot. So.

, he must study hard and seize the time to practice. With a strong body and outstanding martial arts, he can at least survive in this era.

He didn't want Deng Ji, a native of the Han Dynasty.

It is even more impossible to have a strong background like Noriman Xu Yi...

Sometimes, Cao Peng even felt that he was not as good as Wang Mai and Deng Fan. When it came to his understanding of this era, he was far inferior to them.

The oppression of survival makes Cao Peng feel a strong sense of crisis at all times...

"who!"

A soft sound woke Cao Peng out of his deep thoughts.

He instinctively turned sideways and looked towards the source of the sound.

"Mr. Puyang?"

In the night, under the dim light of the corridor, Puyang Kai's clear figure appeared in Cao Peng's sight.

Wearing a white gown, he is very eye-catching in the dark. Puyang Kai is a person who pays great attention to etiquette. Even if there are many shortcomings, he is very particular about clothes. He will never make a mistake in what kind of clothes he wears in any season. Today

Seeing that winter is coming, he still wears white Zen clothes for autumn. In his words, if the winter solstice does not come, autumn is still there, so the color of clothing must be followed.

Cao Peng had nothing to do about this.

Pu Yangkai walked out of the shadows and looked at Cao Peng doubtfully.

"Youxue, are you still awake?"

Cao Peng named himself, but because of his age, most people like to call him by his nickname.

But Puyang Kai was different. He strictly followed etiquette, laws and customs. Now that you have a character, you can no longer call you by your nickname.

Moreover, in Puyangkai's opinion, since you have adopted the word, it also means that you are an adult.

Although he has no relationship with Cao Peng, he treats Cao Peng according to adult standards. To be honest, Cao Peng still feels a little weird about the word "youxue". In his previous life, his name was Cao Youxue, Yongyouxue

It can be regarded as a kind of nostalgia for the past life. He hopes to use this way to remind him that he is a reborn person. But everyone keeps calling him "Afu Afu", which makes Cao Peng often have the illusion that he is this

People of this era...sometimes even reject 'youxue'.

The last time I used the word ‘youxue’ was at the Yangce Town Inn.

In a blink of an eye, it’s been almost a year...

When he first heard Pu Yangkai call him "Youxue", Cao Peng had an illusion like he was in a dream.

"Ah, my brother-in-law hasn't gone to bed yet. I'm worried about something happening to him, so..."

Unexpectedly, before Cao Peng could finish speaking, Puyang Kai interrupted him.

"Youxue, you must remember that when you talk to outsiders in the future, you must not call your uncle and grandson brother-in-law. He is Haixi Ling now. When he takes office, everything he does will be noticed by many people. You should always call him brother-in-law.

, will cause many people to misunderstand. No matter what you do, others will think that it is your uncle and grandson who are behind your back... You can call him whatever you want in private, but when talking to outsiders, you must respect his official position."

"ah?"

"Don't think this is a trivial matter, this is etiquette.

The place where Deng Haixi takes office is a place with many aristocratic families. He comes from a bad background and is not well-known, so he is bound to be rejected by the local people. Because of this, your words and deeds must abide by etiquette. Only in this way can you

Accepted by the local clan...

I also know that this is not easy, and it may even make you feel a little wronged.

But since you are going to take office with Deng Haixi, you have to think about him... Shusun Changyan, you are a smart man, I think you can understand."

I have to say, this old man is so rigid and hateful.

But it made Cao Peng extremely grateful.

At least, Pu Yangkai was a very conscientious person. Since he became Deng Ji's staff, everything he did was done on Deng Ji's side.

Cao Peng bowed and said, "Young man, please teach me."

"Also, remind Deng Haixi that he is not dressed correctly."

Cao Peng was startled and looked at Pu Yangkai, not quite understanding what he meant.

"Although he has no fame, he is an official of the imperial court. Therefore, he should dress according to etiquette...Look at him, autumn has not passed and winter has not yet come, but he is wearing blue clothes. How is he appropriate? He should be wearing white clothes now. Wait until the time comes.

In winter, just put on black clothes.

In this way, even if he has no fame, he will not be looked down upon when he visits the locals... There are some things that I can't say to him. Since you are his brother-in-law, you should always remind him. Haixi

, it’s not a peaceful place now, my uncle and grandson are having a hard time walking around now!”

Puyang Kai suddenly let out a sigh of relief.
