Not far ahead of Lu Bu, over 300 Xiongnu men had intercepted a Han merchant caravan.
"Oh! Oh oh!"
The Huns were wrapped in animal skins and held scimitars. They surrounded the caravan and howled.
A burly Xiongnu man excitedly pointed at the carriages in the caravan and said to the Xiongnu leader,"
"Lord Anur, we caught a fat sheep!
Look at the carriage in the middle, how spacious and gorgeous it is.
After this, we won't have to worry for a few years!”
The leader, Anur, wore a felt hat and stared at the Xiongnu man with his beady eyes.
"Be quick later. Don't leave anyone alive.”
The burly man grinned hideously and replied,
"Don't worry, Milord. We're the best at torturing and killing these Han people.”
There were about two hundred people in the Han caravan, and fifty of them were guards.
These guards could deal with some thieves, but they had no chance of winning against the fierce Xiongnu warriors.
Without their master's orders, the guards did not dare to make a move.
They all held their weapons and guarded the caravan, staring at the Xiongnu people vigilantly.
In the middle carriage sat a middle-aged merchant in his thirties.
Although he was a merchant, he had the temperament of a Confucian scholar.
Beside him sat a young man and a young woman, both of whom were around 14 or 15 years old.
Hearing the roars of the Xiongnu people outside, the young man's face turned pale. He whispered to the merchant,"
"Father... Are these Hu here to kill us?”
"Yu 'er, Jiang' er, don't be afraid.”
The middle-aged merchant gently stroked their shoulders and said,"
"I have an appointment with King Youxian of the Xiongnu. This trade is very important to the Xiongnu.
They shouldn't dare to act rashly."
As the merchant spoke, he pushed open the door and walked out. He faced the hundreds of Xiongnu cavalrymen without any fear on his face.
He cupped his hands at the Xiongnu leader Anur and said,"
"Zhongshan Zhen Yi greets the lords.
This trip is to follow the agreement with King Youxian to sell salt tea to the Xiongnu and buy a batch of horses back.
I hope that everyone will give face to Prince Youxian.
I will naturally give you a generous gift."
Anur could not help but be stunned when he heard the title of King Qubei of the Right.
He didn't expect this caravan to have such a strong backer. That would be difficult.
Was he really going to let them pass?
It was not easy to catch a fat sheep, and Anur was still a little unwilling.
The Xiongnu man beside him had a ruthless expression as he advised Anur,
"Lord Anur, this merchant is here to sell salt and tea. He should be a rare wealthy merchant in the Great Han Dynasty.
Let's kill him without anyone knowing
Even if Prince Youxian is angry, how can he find out about us?”
Anur nodded and sentenced Zhen Yi to death in his heart.
He waved his hand and said,"
"Kill them!"
The surrounding Xiongnu soldiers immediately pounced on them like wolves. Zhen Yi's guards hurriedly stepped forward to block them, but they were no match for the Xiongnu soldiers.
Zhen Yi's eyes were filled with despair as he looked at the guards who kept falling.
He had been a businessman for many years and had gone through many storms.
Was he going to die in the hands of the Xiongnu this time?
This Xiongnu's Youxian King was too unethical!
Just as the guards of his caravan were about to be killed by the Xiongnu, a fierce general suddenly charged into the Xiongnu army, causing a riot among the Xiongnu.
This general was wearing silver armor and holding a halberd. He killed more than ten Xiongnu warriors with a raise of his hand.
The valiant Xiongnu people were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered under the silver-armored general's hands, unable to retaliate at all.
"It's Flying General Lu Bu!"
"Run!"
The 300 Xiongnu people couldn't resist Lu Bu at all.
The tribal leader Anur's face was ashen.
Why was he so unlucky? He had finally caught a big fish, but he had bumped into Flying General Lu Bu!
"Lu Bu, everyone says that you are invincible, but I don't believe it!
Die!"
Anur knew that running away would only lead to death, so he mustered up his courage and swung his saber at Lu Bu.
Lu Bu drew his halberd horizontally and said indifferently,"
"They're just clay chickens and pottery dogs."
The Heavenly Halberd collided with the scimitar in Anur's hand with a monstrous force.
The knife broke and the man died.
The leader of the Xiongnu tribe, Anur, had been cut in half by Lu Bu's halberd!
The remaining Xiongnu people lost the courage to resist and began to flee frantically.
Lu Bu ignored them.
Once Anur died, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun would take care of the remaining Hu bandits.
With the crisis averted, Zhen Yi heaved a sigh of relief and bowed to Lu Bu,"
"Zhongshan Zhen Yi, thank you for saving my life, General!
May I ask your name?"
Zhen Yi?
Hearing this name, Lu Bu felt a sense of familiarity.
Zhen Yi wasn't very famous, but his daughter Zhen Mi was the famous Goddess Luo, one of the most famous goddesses of the Three Kingdoms.
Looking at Zhen Yi's elegant and handsome appearance, the Zhen family's genes were indeed well-deserved.
He had never thought that the merchant he had saved would be Zhen Yi, which made Lu Bu secretly happy.
It seemed that he and Lady Zhen were really…Ah, no, he was really fated to be with the Zhen family!
Lu Bu put on a righteous posture and replied to Zhen Yi,"
"My name is Lu Bu, also known as Fengxian.
There's no need to stand on ceremony, Mr. Zhen.
Exterminating the Hu bandits and returning peace to the people of Great Han is our duty as generals!”
"General Lu is truly a pillar of the Great Han Dynasty. Zhen Yi is impressed!”
At this moment, Zhen Yi's son Zhen Yu and daughter Zhen Jiang also got off the carriage.
Zhen Yi quickly led them to Lu Bu's side and said to the two,"
"Yu 'er, Jiang' er, General Lu is our savior. Why aren't you thanking General Lu?”
"Zhen Yu thanks General for saving my life!”
"I, Zhen Jiang, thank you for your kindness, General.”
" Thank you!" Zhen Yi's two children thanked Lu Bu at the same time, which made Lu Bu secretly amazed.
Looking at Zhen Yi's appearance, he was around 30 years old.
But his two children were already fourteen or fifteen years old. How did this guy do it?
It had to be said that the ancient people got married and had children really early.
Compared to Zhen Yu, Zhen Jiang was the girl that Lu Bu paid more attention to.
The little girl had an exquisite oval face, a graceful figure, and a pair of big eyes that were lively and charming.
This kind of beauty was definitely a rare beauty.
Even in Lu Bu's two lifetimes of memories, he had never seen such a beautiful woman.
Lu Bu couldn't help but sigh.
If his sister Zhen Jiang was so beautiful, then Zhen Mi, who was famous for her beauty, would definitely soar!
Lu Bu subconsciously blurted out,"
"Mr. Zhen, do you have another daughter called Zhen Mi?”
Zhen Yi was stunned when he heard this and replied to Lu Bu,"
"Mi 'er is indeed my daughter. She's only five years old this year.
How did General Lu know her name?”
Lu Bu felt a little awkward.
Oh no, I forgot how old Luo Shen is.
He could only make up a story,
"My master is a celestial and is very good at reading people.
I also learned some physiognomy from my teacher.
From Brother Zhen's face, you should have a daughter named Zhen Mi, and this daughter's fate is extremely noble.”
Hearing Lu Bu's words, Zhen Yi did not doubt him. Instead, he said happily,"
"Even General Lu can tell?
To tell you the truth, when my Mi 'er was born, an expert had predicted that she would be able to become an emperor in the future…"
