Chapter 226: The Strongest Carbon-Based Lifeform of the Seventh Century~

'Beep beep~ beep beep~~'

On the stopped off-road vehicle, Lin Dao honked the trumpet.

Not far ahead, a group of deer that had rushed out of the woods hopped about in panicked evasion.

Because they were too frightened, in their chaotic running some deer fell, some collided with each other, a scene of utter confusion.

Li Erfeng in the passenger seat gripped the safety belt tightly with both hands.

'Brother Zi Hou.'

'Just a group of deer, drive straight through them.'

Since Lin Dao had suddenly disappeared and then reappeared, with an iron car now beside him.

Li Erfeng's tone of voice was warm and gentle like jade, his breath mild as that of an old friend of many years.

'Deer are also life.'

Reaching into the water cup holder beside him, he picked up a bottle of Wahaha, Lin Dao opened it 'One must know how to respect life.'

He turned his head to look at Li Erfeng 'Of course, Hu people don't count.'

Li Erfeng, young in years but full of schemes, understood clearly in his heart like a bright mirror.

This was pointing at him.

It seemed this person still doubted the bloodline of the Longxi Li Clan.

He could sense it.

Whether the bloodline of the Longxi Li Clan was Han or Hu would to a great extent affect how this person would treat himself and the Li Clan in the future.

The difference between them would be as vast as heaven and earth.

'Hu people commit countless evils, hated by gods and men alike!'

Li Erfeng bared his teeth 'Especially Wang Shichong, who proclaimed himself a false emperor, brought calamity to the people of Luo Prefecture, causing countless to starve to death, I must kill him!'

That cold scrutinizing feeling had lessened considerably, but still existed.

Lin Dao smiled, and after the deer ahead had run off, continued driving forward.

In no time at all, a troop of Xuanjia Cavalry appeared in view.

Xuan means black, jia refers to armor.

Xuanjia Cavalry are cavalry who fight wearing black armor.

Lin Dao stopped the car and rolled down the car window.

The heat wave outside the car window surged in instantly, dispelling the coolness brought by the air conditioner.

Li Erfeng stuck half his body out of the window, waving his hand and shouting 'Is it Jingde?'

'Qin Wang, do not be alarmed, Yuchi Jingde has arrived~~~'

The black-iron-tower-like man on horseback roared furiously, spurring his horse forward.

'Qin Wang!'

Gazing at the iron car before him with an expression of astonishment, Yuchi Jingde was full of bewilderment 'What is this thing?'

'Mo School Mechanism Vehicle.'

Unbuckling the safety belt and getting out of the car, Li Erfeng returned to the side of his own troops, and courage and faith instantly returned.

'Met Dan Xiongxin on the road~'

'Fortunately Brother Zi Hou came to my aid~'

Briefly explaining what had happened before, and seeing that some armored soldiers were leading horses over, Li Erfeng subconsciously prepared to mount.

His hand had grabbed the saddle, but then he drew back.

'You all just lead the way and serve as escort guards.'

Instructing them with a sentence, Li Erfeng returned to the off-road vehicle, unbuckled the safety belt and sat back down.

Lin Dao started the car and continued forward 'What, is it too hot outside?'

'Yes.'

Li Erfeng smiled warmly 'It's too hot.'

Blasting the air conditioner was merely incidental.

More importantly, Li Erfeng wanted to learn more about this extraordinary person.

'Brother Zi Hou, where are you from?'

'A person of the Central Plains.'

'Brother Zi Hou, how did you come here?'

'I walked here.'

'Brother Zi Hou, what brings you here?'

Lin Dao glanced at him 'To see you.'

Li Erfeng was astonished 'Have we met before?'

'The great name of Qin Wang is like thunder in my ears.' Lin Dao drove skillfully, following the Xuanjia Cavalry leading the way forward 'I came specially to see you.'

Asking around, there was no important news at all.

Li Erfeng fell silent.

Lin Dao on his side took the initiative to speak 'To see what kind of person you are.'

'To see how you treat Han people, how you treat Hu people.'

'This~~~' Li Erfeng frowned 'Is it very important?'

Lin Dao glanced at him again 'To you, it should be very important.'

If you are wholeheartedly inclined toward the Hu, then I will flip the table.

Having experienced the Hu calamity in the Yonghe Spacetime, Lin Dao had only one attitude toward these locusts.

"The Longxi Li Clan are of Han bloodline."

Li Erfeng explained tirelessly, "If one gains the realm, one should naturally treat the Han people well."

"As for the various Hu."

His words paused slightly, "Men like Wang Shichong, with wolf hearts and dog lungs, should naturally be executed."

"The various Hu have been sinicized for many years; if their hearts turn to the right path, they should naturally be employed when useful."

The era's background is very important.

The various Hu entered the Central Plains hundreds of years ago.

When the Xianbei held power, the Li family once changed their surname to Daye.

Every family and tribe has intermarried with the various Hu, and has been deeply influenced in every aspect.

If Li Erfeng opened his mouth saying, "Once I become Emperor, I will immediately slaughter every Hu under heaven~"

Lin Dao would surely kick him out of the carriage.

Trying to fool ghosts.

All the way to the outside of the Tang Army Camp, more Tang soldiers gathered around.

All curiously surveying the Iron Car.

"Brother Zi Hou."

Li Er sincerely invited, "The grace of saving my life must be repaid with a gushing spring."

"Please, brother, come with me into the camp to rest."

Lin Dao shook his head, "It is not yet time."

"If there is fate, we will surely meet again in the future."

Li Erfeng got out of the carriage, and a host of Jun Shi stepped forward one after another, clustering around his side, curiously surveying the Iron Car before them that needed no ox or horse to pull, yet could move on its own.

Lin Dao inside the carriage waved his hand and turned to leave.

"Arrange for someone to follow him." Li Erfeng instructed Wang Junkuo beside him, "Be clever, do not let yourself be detected."

"End Commandant receives orders!"

Li Er raised his arm, resting it on Yuchi Jingde's shoulder, "Return to camp, summon the Military Doctor, my leg is injured."

Modern World.

Lin Dao sat before the Computer, looking up information about Li Erfeng.

"Grand Tang Grand Marshal~ Grand Tutor~ Grand Secretary of the Central Secretariat~"

"Grand Secretary of the Central Secretariat of the Shandong Circuit Xingtai~ Grand Secretary of the Central Secretariat of the Yizhou Circuit Xingtai~ Governor of Yongzhou~ Governor-General of Liangzhou~"

"Commander of the Right Feather Guard General~ Commander of the Left and Right Martial Marquis Generals commanding the Twelve Guard Generals~"

"Supreme Pillar of the State~ Prince of Qin~ Grand Commander of the Heavenly Strategy~ Heavenly Khan~ Grand Tang Taizong Wen Emperor Li Shimin~"

"Asia Continental Chief~"

"Eastern Hemisphere Spokesman~"

"Strongest Carbon-based Organism of the Seventh Century~"

"Bearing of Dragon and Phoenix, Model of Heaven and Sun~"

Lin Dao flipped through the evaluations of Li Erfeng on the Internet.

There were positive ones, and naturally there were negative ones.

The most typical and prominent was naturally killing brothers and murdering siblings to imprison their father.

There were also many comment analyses.

In terms of family, it was indeed evil conduct.

But when this family was the Royal family, it was not a family tragedy, but a power struggle.

A thousand years have passed, and power struggles have always been the cruelest and fiercest.

Once one fails, exterminating the whole family is considered good luck.

The standard is three clans, and nine clans together play elimination games.

One must also drag in those who followed along, the whole family and whole clan hopping and jumping into Tie Qiu Fen together.

For the throne, fathers and sons killing each other and brothers slaughtering each other are commonplace.

Not only in the Central Plains, but outside is the same, even more cruel.

Like on the Ottoman side, once one ascends the throne, all brothers die.

On a certain Island Nation, even the Royal family's seed was changed.

Li Erfeng's actions were truly routine operations.

There were also accusations that Li Erfeng forcibly took his younger siblings.

The defending posts claimed this was using modern moral standards to demand of ancient people.

Different eras, the gap in moral bottom lines is too great.

Female beauty in ancient times was truly not a big deal.

If little fairies in their thirties or forties returned to ancient times, what awaited them would absolutely not be lifelong devotion to one person, but a sound beating.

Disobedience brings a beating.

Those who demand this right and that equality also get beaten.

In ancient times, there is no stubbornness or Tear that a beating cannot solve.

If that doesn't work, then two beatings, three beatings, countless beatings.

As for the little fairies' views on love and their loose skirts, if they truly returned to ancient times, before long their families would have to order bamboo baskets.

There were also those accusing Li Erfeng of tampering with the imperial diary.

Plenty of people did such things; he wasn't the only one.

After all the talk, those constantly attacking Li Erfeng's character and ethics were essentially doing so because he was too famous.

As an emperor who had to secure three and fight for one, brushing the edge meant traffic.

Among the many posts, what Lin Dao cared about was Li Erfeng's marriage alliance and the Heavenly Khan.

As for the Han-Tang marriage alliance, regardless of purpose or outcome, in Lin Dao's view they were all the same.

Losing face.

As for the Heavenly Khan~~~

"See if you can change it."

"If it can't be changed, once I go to Chang'an City, I must carefully observe Li Jiancheng."

As for whether to come in person, it still depends on the inspection results.

Only if both Li Er and Li Jiancheng fail will this option be activated.

The investment of time and energy is one aspect.

More importantly, the end of the Sui saw chaos across the land.

The thirty-six rebel kings and seventy-two plumes of smoke had long since slaughtered the common people of the world to the point of withering.

Year 3 of Wude was an important turning point.

Li Erfeng crushed Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, displaying the overwhelming might of swallowing the world.

The people of the world longing for a stable life had long since settled their hearts and turned to Tang.

If Lin Dao rises again, he must surely kill another wave ruthlessly.

This was not his original intention.

"Don't be a damn Heavenly Khan."

"The Han Family Emperor is the Han Family Emperor."

"Learn from the strong Han: wherever you take, hold it firmly; don't engage in useless nominal subjugation, fattening these white-eyed wolves."

"And marriage alliances."

"Dare to form a marriage alliance, and I'll blow your brains out with one shot!"

Continue reviewing relevant records and materials from the early Tang.

Soon, a person's name and deeds entered his sight.

Zhu Can.

The common people of that time gave him the title of:

Man-Eating Demon King!

"This is no longer human."

Lin Dao always dealt with such human-like livestock with heavy blows.

"Only beasts eat people."

"Beasts that eat people must be eliminated."

"This is common knowledge known even to primitives wearing beast skins."

Carefully reviewing Zhu Can's biography, he found that in Year 3 of Wude, this fellow actually ran to Wang Shichong's side and even became a General of Dragon Soaring.

"Truly, birds of a feather flock together."

"The Man-Eating Demon King relying on the Hu People—you two are well matched."

"Since that's the case, then let's all go die together."

Ci Canal, Tang Army Main Camp.

Li Erfeng, gently rubbing his injured leg, frowned slightly.

"Didn't catch up?"

"Caught up." The cavalry responsible for tracking Lin Dao's traces hurriedly reported, "But that Iron Car vanished in the blink of an eye."

"We searched nearby for a long time."

"We only found wheel tracks, but no trace of the Iron Car."

The cavalryman quietly added a sentence.

"We searched heaven and earth, but couldn't find it."

Li Erfeng recalled that the Iron Car had also appeared suddenly before.

He sighed and waved his hand.

The cavalryman left the big tent, and the gathered officers cast curious glances.

Luo Shixin spoke first: "Prince Qin, just who is that person?"

Li Erfeng opened his mouth to speak, but for a moment didn't know how to describe him.

After a moment, he finally spat out a word.

"Strange person."

He was indeed a strange person, especially that scrutinizing gaze.

"Prince Qin~~~"

Cheng Zhijie, on duty guarding the Main Camp today, entered to report: "That Iron Car is back again, shouting outside the camp to see Prince Qin."

Li Erfeng was stunned.

When Lin Dao left before, his tone clearly indicated he wouldn't appear for a short time.

How did he come back just like that?

"Jingde."

Li Erfeng greeted Yuchi Jingde. "Help me up."

"Exit to greet!"
