Fast time travel to the king hero Su Shangtian

Chapter 38, Li Bai
After a long journey, the two finally came to Loulan.

Standing at the gate of Loulan, Li Bai was filled with emotion.

Xiao Zijin looked up at the city gate in front of him, full of curiosity.

This is Li Bai's hometown. (That’s what the king said in the introduction, please don’t look at it according to the Chinese historical poet Li Bai.)
What kind of a place is it that gave birth to such a powerful character.

There are not many people coming and going at the gate of the city.

Occasionally one or two people passed by, and the guarding soldiers were also a little listless.

It was noon and the weather was scorching hot.

Xiao Zijin took out the fan he bought earlier and started to fan it quickly.

After entering the city, both sides of the street are a bit desolate.

There are no hawkers setting up stalls on the entire main street, only the occasional wind blows up a burst of yellow sand.

Pedestrians all lowered their heads and walked in a hurry.

Xiao Zijin was a little surprised.

Historically, Loulan used to be a very prosperous existence.

An important transportation hub, it is a diversified city formed by the fusion of cultures from many countries.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be as deserted as it is now.

Xiao Zijin looked at Li Bai with doubts.

Obviously, Li Bai was also a little dazed, with a complicated light in his eyes.

Xiao Zijin hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother Bai, let's find a place to live first."

She originally wanted to ask why Loulan looked so desolate.

But when she saw Li Bai's expression, she held back.

Hearing this, Li Bai looked around, pointed to a Fengqing Inn and said, "That's it."

"it is good."

There are very few guests in the inn.Many tables were covered with yellow sand.

Xiao Er leaned against the counter, looking drowsy.

When the two came to the counter, Li Bai knocked on the table and said, "Xiaoer, let's go to the room. Prepare some food and send it to my room. The horses outside will be fed in the backyard."

Hearing the movement, Xiao Er lazily opened his eyes, and saw a new guest coming, with a surprised expression on his face.

Xiao Zijin stretched out his hand and shook Xiao Er's eyes: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and take us to the room."

Xiao Er: "Okay, please go upstairs, both of you."

Under Xiao Er's leadership, the two knew the location of the room.

Pushing open the door, the dust was instantly lifted up.

"Cough cough cough..."

Xiao Zijin covered his mouth and coughed, raised his hand and waved away the dust.

Xiao Er said with a smile: "Don't mind, you two, we have a lot of wind and sand here, and it can't stop it."

Then quickly wiped the table and stools.

Xiao Zijin waved his hand: "Okay, you go and prepare food. There are also horses, don't forget."

Xiao Er responded and left.

Xiao Zijin came to the window and was about to open it, but was held down by Li Bai.

He said: "The wind and sand are strong, and when you open the window, all of them fly in."

Xiao Zijin nodded, raised her face and looked at Li Bai: "You don't seem very happy."

Li Bai didn't answer right away, but turned and sat at the table.

After getting along for so long, Xiao Zijin saw a sad expression on Li Bai's face for the first time.

After a long time, he said in a hearty voice with unconcealable loss, "I'm still me, but Loulan doesn't seem to be Loulan anymore."

The prosperity of the past is nowhere to be found.

If it weren't for this main road, there would be so many inns and teahouses.

Who would have thought that there used to be a huge crowd of people here, and the sound of gongs and drums.

Even in the middle of the night, it was still not deserted.

What happened here to make it look like this?
Xiao Zijin stood by the window, not knowing what to say for a while.

She quietly came to Li Bai and sat down, quietly accompanying him.
