Huo Jun initially thought that Lei Yuan was just trying to win over the hearts of the people, but after hearing what he said, he seemed to be really involved and put in a lot of effort. Thinking about the moment when he said goodbye to the villagers, those villagers could not pretend to be happy... This is a bit interesting.

He asked, "Since it's delayed, now is this..."

"A master craftsman suggested that he could make a raft to block water, then lower the bridge pile, and then surrounded and reinforce it with bamboo cages, bowl bags and other objects. Today is the time to try it out. Now it seems that the effect is good! Brother Zhong Miao, please see, from there to here..."

Lei Yuan gestded enthusiastically: "More than thirty steps are the result of our morning, which is more than twice as fast as the ordinary method. In a few days, see if it is solid. If it is indeed available, then this method may be used to set up a dike to divide the water, and then roll over to irrigate nearby fields."

Huo Jun could see that Lei Yuan was really happy and couldn't help laughing: "Su Zhi, you are actually a material for a person-friendly official."

Lei Yuan thought for a while: "If the world is peaceful and the sword remains unmoved, wouldn't it be a good official? Being an official and benefiting the people is also a good deed."

Just now, he stood in the shallows of the river and discussed with the craftsmen, so he took off his outer clothes and wore a short shirt. At this time, Li Zhen and several entourages climbed up from the river and changed Lei Yuan back to the clothing that suited his identity. Lei Yuan stretched his waist and felt that the river breeze blew over the wide robe, bringing a slight coolness, which made people feel a sense of comfort.

Huo Jun is right. In the past two months, Lei Yuan has indeed regarded himself as a civil servant and has done a lot of things. Although these things are hard, they have brought happiness to Lei Yuan.

This kind of happiness is very different from the high-pitched mood of warriors fighting and defeating the enemy in war. War is confrontation, destruction, and life-and-death. Winning war is to make the enemy die, let yourself live, and let yourself and your companions survive in this troubled times. But what about after surviving? Humans are not animals. In addition to survival, humans will also maintain expectations for a better life; and to allow as many people as possible to satisfy this expectation, they can only rely on labor and construction.

At this time, Li Zhen took out the black ribbon, copper seal, cloak, etc. for Lei Yuan to wear one by one, so Lei Yuan cooperated to raise his hand and feet, and in a blink of an eye he returned to the official posture. He himself did not notice that when he was wearing his robe, his hands stretched and raised, and the hideous scar on his arm that ran straight from his upper arm to the back of his hand was completely revealed; this scar almost occupied half of the width of the arm, with obvious depressions on his inner side, which obviously had damaged his muscles and bones, and the edges were jagged, indicating that the situation of the injury must have been extremely tragic. With Lei Yuan's movement, the scar seemed to be a miserable white evil beast twisting and winding on his arm, and finally sneaked back under the sleeve of the robe.

When Guan Ping and Liu Feng met Lei Yuan before, it was autumn and winter. The weather was cold. Lei Yuan was sick due to fatigue and injuries, so his whole body was tightly wrapped and he had never exposed this scar. These two men were warriors who had been fighting for a long time, and they were the most sensitive to this and looked at each other in an instant.

Guan Ping thought to himself: "Although Xu Zhi is busy with local governance, he has been on the battlefield and has a military man who has been through the age of death. His style of conduct is very different from that of ordinary civil officials."

Liu Feng had a straightforward personality and immediately asked, "Xuzhi, what's going on on your arm?"

Lei Yuan raised his arm and looked at it, sighed, "This is the injury left when he fought against Zhang Liao in Tianzhu Mountain. Until now, this arm is still bent and stretched... I'm afraid it will be difficult to heal."

He thought about the scene at that time, and couldn't help but feel scared. Then he thought of the sacrifice of his brother and countless companions around him, and his heart felt ache again: "Zhang Liao is really a general of bear and tiger. During those days, we struggled to support him, from my brother to ordinary soldiers, there were no less than hundreds of people who died in battle. If the lord had not sent General Zilong to help thousands of miles, he would have arrived at that time... I would have definitely died in the mountains."

Guan Ping nodded and said, "Following this injury, we can meet the dangerous situation at that time. My father once said that Zhang Liao had the courage of Ben Yu, and he was one of the few generals who were good at fighting in Cao's camp. Xu Zhi fought against him, and if he did not die, he was worthy of boasting."

Liu Feng strode forward, and without saying a word, he picked up Lei Yuan's arm and looked at it carefully. He was so envious that he could hold it in his arms and rub it hard: "Only a good man can have such scars! Alas, I, Liu Feng, have participated in dozens of battles, but have never confronted such generals!"

The four of them chatted a few more times, and the second group of people crossing the river climbed the river bank one by one. Guan Ping introduced Lei Yuan one by one.

The one who was particularly cautious when crossing the river, so that Guan Ping was ridiculed by Xiang Chong, a native of Yicheng, Xiang Yang. Xiang Chong's uncle Xiang Lang Xiang Juda, studied under the famous scholar Sima Hui, and was the former chief of Lin Ju. Last year, he was ordered to supervise the military and civilian affairs of Yidao and other counties and partner with Zhang Fei. Although Xiang Chong himself was young, he had served as the governor of Liu Bei's subordinates, and was highly praised for his diligence, carefulness and carefulness.

Xiang Chong looked a little shy. Seeing Lei Yuan watching him, he hurriedly walked over to show his salute. Lei Yuan was not negligent, so he was polite to give him a salute.

After Xiang Chong, the young man who landed in a shore was Ma Su and Ma Youchang. The Ma family was the Guan clan of Yicheng, Xiangyang. Ma Su's brother Ma Liang is now the left general and an important assistant to Zhuge Liang, a military counselor. Xiang Lang has always praised the talents of the Ma brothers, so Xiang Chong also respected Ma Su especially. When Ma Su got off the ship, Xiang Chong deliberately waved his entourages and went to help him in person. Ma Su was not polite, and it was obvious that the two families were very familiar with each other.

There is also a very dynamic warrior, who is Xiang Chong's colleague and friend Xi Zhen. The Xi family is also a great clan in Xiangyang. In terms of reputation, Xi Zhen's brother Xi Zhen's reputation is more prominent than Ma Liang. Xi Zhen's elder sister married Pang Lin, a famous scholar in Jingzhou.

Xiang Chong, Ma Su and Xi Zhen are all children of the Jingxiang clan. These families have many branches and have formed a mismatched relationship with marriage. The Lei family in Lujiang wanted to gain a foothold in Jingzhou, so they had to get close to them. And they would come to Lexiang, which shows that Guan Ping was meticulous and thoughtful. Lei Yuan nodded slightly to Guan Ping, and the two were friendly to each other, so there was no need to thank them deliberately.

While everyone was chatting and laughing, they waited until all the teams crossed the river and set off again.

At this time, the group no longer walked along the official road by the river, but walked on another road. The width of this road was almost the same as that of the official road, but the road surface was obviously newly formed.

"Continue, is this road also newly opened?" Guan Ping asked.

"That's right." Lei Yuan said: "Follow this road and go south. Go 80 miles to the Bingshui. If the business trips in Lingling, Guiyang and other places go to Bashu from this road, they can save more than 100 miles of journey. However... cough cough, it seems that there is no use at the moment."

Perhaps because the war destroyed commercial exchanges beyond imagination, after the road was built, there were not as many merchants as I imagined. A group of people rode on the road without any obstacles along the way, but instead they ran into several groups of messengers from the military mansion one after another.

Everyone talked and walked, but not long after, they passed by near Lexiang County.
