The middle-aged man looked at the gradually approaching coastline with a little anticipation on his face. How long had he been gone? He could no longer remember.
It had been too long, probably four or five years, right?
On the way, Xu Fu had thought of retreating. He had also thought of staying at Fusang and not coming back.
There were no immortal medicines overseas. They were all used to deceive people. How could there be immortal medicines in this world? How could there be immortals?
If there really were immortals, then he, Xu Fu, would eat sh * t in front of the entire Xianyang City.
Later, when he wanted to settle down in Fusang and never came back, someone in the fleet stood up and told him that even if he did not find the immortal medicine, he would still come back.
At that time, Xu Fu thought that the child was a retard. However, the child said something that instantly moved Xu Fu.
The child said that he knew a place where there were two kinds of grain seeds. Those kinds of grain could yield a thousand catties per mu.
If they could find these two seeds and bring them back, even if they didn't find the so-called immortal medicine, they would still live. The First Emperor would never blame them.
Just as he was thinking about it, a young man walked over. This young man had a little sigh on his face. He did not expect that he would really return.
Xu Fu turned his head and said to the young man,""Chen Ke, why did you come out? But those things had already been taken care of?”
Chen Ke looked at the man in front of him who was supposed to live in Fusang and smiled. Then, he slowly said,"Teacher, the potatoes and sweet potatoes have been taken care of. We're almost home, right?”
Upon hearing the name Chen Ke, Xu Fu and the surrounding crew members had a dreamy look on their faces. That was their home.
Since ancient times, the Chinese had always placed the most importance on the concept of home. It was difficult to leave one's hometown. If it was not because there was no other way, who would want to leave their home?
There was a hint of nostalgia on his face."Yes, we're almost home.“
Xu Fu looked at Chen Ke and said," When we get to Xianyang City, I will definitely ask for credit for you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to reach the American continent. We wouldn't even have been able to get the potatoes and sweet potatoes."”
"Without these two things, no matter what happens to us, I don't think His Majesty will let us live.”
Xu Fu stroked his beard and smiled."When we reach Xianyang City, I will be relying on you for the rest of my life.”
Chen Ke smiled. This old man had saved him when he was young. After that, he was even more afraid that the emperor would take his anger out on him and bring him out to sea.
When he was in Fusang, he even went to the American continent because of his words.
Only God knew how they managed to survive along the way. They were actually able to rely on Chen Ke's words and some landmark buildings along the way to reach the American continent.
If it were not for the fact that Xu Fu trusted him, he would probably have to stay in Fusang for the rest of his life.
Of course, there was also a reason why Xu Fu wanted to come back. If it wasn't because he wanted to come back, how could he have gone to the American continent like this?
Xianyang City was getting closer and closer.

a small village
Xiangyu looked at his uncle anxiously.""Uncle, if we don't take the initiative to attack, we'll be completely finished! The First Emperor had already issued the Land Law. With this, his position was definitely stable!”
Xiang Liang was still a little worried. He kept feeling that something was wrong with this matter.
It was as if there was a big hand pushing them forward from behind, making them confused. Under such circumstances, Xiang Liang did not dare to move easily.
"Let's wait a little longer. If things continue to develop like this after a period of time, we'll take action.”
Xiangyu looked at his uncle, who was hesitating to hang up. He sighed and said,""Uncle, why are you so muddle-headed? How can we continue waiting?"
Xiang Liang was still hesitating. At this time, he really did not dare to move.
In Xiang Liang's opinion, it was best to wait until the First Emperor died before they made their move. However, it seemed that the First Emperor's body was getting better and better day by day.
He pondered as he thought.
Suddenly, an arrow flew over from afar. Before the two of them could react, it pierced into their hearts.
Xiang Liang looked into the distance and clutched his chest. Xiang Yu hurried over and shouted for help. At the same time, he quickly carried Xiang Liang to find a doctor.

Xianyang Palace
Ying Zheng looked at the man standing in front of him, and a light flashed across his eyes,""What is it? You said Xu Fu is back?"
Zhao Gao stood there with a respectful expression on his face and said,"Your Majesty, according to the news we received, I'm afraid Xu Fu's fleet will reach Xianyang tomorrow.”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng burst out laughing and said,""Hahahaha, Xu Fu came back at the right time!”
