Volume 1 Jiangdong Fengyun Chapter 2 I Saw Your Mech
“I’m so hungry… I really want to eat something… I think I ordered takeout before I traveled through time, but I think it won’t be delivered…”
On the official road of Lu County in the eastern part of Yuzhou, a big white rabbit... no, it was a white rabbit wearing rabbit pajamas, walking half-deadly.
"It's really a troubled time. Isn't there anyone passing by to give me a drink of water?" Bai Tu looked at the old man who seemed to be a woodcutter, who turned around and ran away after seeing him. He couldn't help but sigh that rituals and music have collapsed and people's hearts have changed.
Before, when he was in Lucheng, Bai Tu had to flee because of his illegal status.
Because cavalry had just left the city not long ago, and the city gates happened to be wide open. While escaping, Bai Tu also discovered that not only his own physical strength had improved, but the physical strength of other people was generally poor!
In addition, the pursuers behind him kept shouting that they were captains of Lu Bu's army. The guards at the city gate seemed to be frightened and actually shrank back and did not dare to stop them...
The most important thing is that after he escaped from the city not far away, the other party seemed to have lost interest in chasing him, so Bai Tu escaped.
But my stomach feels a bit uncomfortable...
Suddenly Bai Tu discovered that there seemed to be the sound of a large group of people passing by ahead.
Before he could decide whether to go and take a look or hide away, the sky suddenly darkened...
Bai Tu looked up stiffly, and saw an exoskeleton mecha about two or three meters high appeared in his field of vision under the backlight!
The whole exoskeleton armor is vermilion in color. The driver's head is exposed at the top. From the shoulders, the mechanical arms overlap with the driver's arms. The body is also covered with armor skeletons. The lower body also has cool-looking mechanical leg armor. Whether it is a mechanical arm or a mechanical leg armor, it is much longer than the limbs of a normal human. The overall height is about two meters and five meters. There seems to be an engine on the back, which is erupting to make the mecha stay in the air...
[Isn’t this too much? What is this? ] Bai Tu now had a puzzled look on his face.
The driver looked like a young man who was a few years older than Bai Tu, who was in his early twenties. He pointed at him and said sternly, "Are you Cao Cao's spy? You are dressed so strangely. Is Cao Cao crazy?"
“…”
Fortunately, at this moment, another man in his thirties wearing a white half-body mecha came over and said to the floating vermilion mecha driver: "Fengxian, calm down... It should be an ordinary person. There is no reason for a spy to walk on the official road like this... Well, an ordinary person dressed suspiciously!"
"Fengxian?" Bai Tu looked at the man in red armor in surprise.
The other party glared at him when he heard this, as if he wanted to say, "Did you call me Fengxian?"
"Ahem, I mean... General Lu! I didn't expect to see you in person, I'm so excited! The title of the best in the world makes people admire you..." Bai Tu grabbed the written lyrics and put them on Lu Bu.
[If you came here on Red Hare, I would be even happier! ] Bai Tu added in his mind.
At this time, Bai Tu has also discovered that it seems that here, calling someone by their name is normal, while calling them by their courtesy name is a sign of intimacy?
But at this point, there have been too many strange things, and it is not the right time to focus on these local customs and practices.
At this time, the large group behind also caught up. To Bai Tu, it was a huge crowd. He couldn't estimate the number of them...
But they are all cavalry, all riding that kind of "war horses"!
"Hahaha, so you are my admirer? How come you have never seen so many cavalrymen?" Lu Bu looked as if he had already believed it.
“Yes, yes…”
"Are you from Lucheng?" Lu Bu asked.
Bai Tu didn't dare to lie, because if he didn't tell the truth, he didn't know how to make it up!
“That’s right…”
"What are you doing outside the city?" Lu Bu stared down at him.
“…I lost my temporary residence permit, and when I saw the guards checking, I got scared and ran out.” Bai Tu said.
"Humph, lost?" Lu Bu obviously guessed that his identity was suspicious. Otherwise, if he lost his ID, wouldn't he just apply for a new one? As for running away?
"But you were able to escape from Lucheng...you didn't receive any 'training', right?" the pilot of the white mecha suddenly asked.
"No!" Bai Tu said stiffly.
Although he didn't know what kind of magical training could make a person weaker the more he trained ...
"You are Huang..."
"Fengxian!" The man in white armor interrupted Lu Bu while he was speaking. It seemed that this man had a good personal relationship with Lu Bu.
"I think you are a pitiful man. How about you serve as a captain under me from now on?" said the man in white armor.
"Ah?" Bai Tu asked in surprise.
In the blink of an eye, I am really going to become a lieutenant of Lu Bu's army? Lieutenant... should be a grassroots officer, right?
Cao Cao started his career as a lieutenant in the Xiyuan Army, the imperial guard...
Although the captains in Lu Bu's army are certainly not as impressive as the eight captains in Xiyuan, which are composed of the second generation of officials, for Bai Tu, it is still an exceptional recruitment!
For a moment, Bai Tu's heart was in a mess...
If he really traveled back to the Three Kingdoms period, even if Bai Tu had no ambition to be a leader and just wanted to rely on his ability as a "prophet" to find a vassal to cling to, he would definitely not choose Lu Bu! After all, this guy is not a potential stock.
If the development of events in this world is really similar to the Three Kingdoms that Bai Tu knows, Lu Bu should be in the wandering stage now, after killing Dong Zhuo and being forced out of Sili by Guo Si and Li Jue, he took advantage of Cao Cao's attack on Xuzhou to sneak attack several counties of Yuzhou under Cao Cao, but was then driven out by Cao Cao.
If this "history" which is not sure whether it is reliable or not continues to develop, Lu Bu should decide to go to Xuzhou to join Liu Bei!
"This... of course! I'd love to... Thank you... General!" Bai Tu said helplessly.
Well, after thinking so much, Bai Tu finally agreed.
After all, Lu Bu was standing next to him with a look of annoyance on his face, as if he wanted to chop himself to death right now.
Not to mention the lieutenant, would he dare to disobey if he was directly drafted into the army? Bai Tu himself didn't believe that he could outrun this mecha-like thing in his bunny pajamas.
Besides, if we ignore his understanding of the direction of history, Bai Tu has no other advantages, and in this world...who knows whether "history" will be the same as what he knows!
"My name is Zhang Liao, and my courtesy name is Wenyuan! You can just call me General Zhang... Where is your armor?" Zhang Liao asked.
"What kind of armor?" Bai Tu was amazed that this person was actually the famous general Zhang Liao, but he was also confused... How could he have armor? Does bunny pajamas count as armor?
"Tsk, you dishonest boy! Now that Wenyuan has recruited you, your previous identity as a Yellow Turban rebel has been exposed. Why do you have to pretend anymore?" Lu Bu said disdainfully.
So these two have always thought he was a Yellow Turban bandit?
Bai Tu is now completely confused and doesn't know whether he should refute or not, but if he doesn't refute... he really can't come up with any "armor"!
"Hmm? Was it damaged in the war? Then we can only wait until we occupy a city and then ask Cheng Ji to repair it for you... You can ride your horse first!" The good man Zhang Liao rescued Bai Tu again.
[You are such a good person.] Bai Tu gave him a good person card in his heart.
This hoverbike... no, it's a "war horse"!
It is easier to ride than expected. The seat is similar in shape to a saddle. After sitting on it, the calves are placed on the support plates on both sides, hanging down on both sides. If you lean forward, you will move forward. The lower you bend your waist, the faster you will go. Leaning left and right means turning, and leaning back means emergency braking...
"Aunt, look at that guy... He's so stupid! He can't even ride as well as I do! He can be a lieutenant with this... No, I have to ask Uncle Wenyuan for a set of armor later!"
A clear female voice reached Bai Tu's ears, and Bai Tu looked over...
Bai Tu didn't know when, but he had stumbled his way towards the middle part of the army, and there were several horse-drawn carriages in the middle... Well, these carriages also had two "war horses" underneath for power.
The curtain of one of the carriages was lifted, revealing the face of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old loli. Seeing Bai Tu looking at her, the older loli glared back and said, "What are you looking at? Did I wrongly accuse you? You can't ride as well as I do!"
"Lingqi, don't be so rude..."
Another more graceful and mature voice was heard, and behind the older loli, a woman's face appeared.
After seeing the woman's appearance, Bai Tu said to the older Lolita in a serious tone: "Ahem, little girl, since you are a better rider, why don't you come out and ride the horse, and I'll go in and squeeze in, okay?"
