Hearing the sound of horses, Sulu Khan thought that his beloved horse Baili was chasing the wind back, but he didn't expect to look up, only to see Zheng Peng holding the pole in front of him with one hand, raising it with the other, and greeting the people on both sides of the road, looking very coquettish.

What the hell is going on, why did it go back to him first?

Is it possible, just stepping on this wooden frame called a bicycle, it is faster than his own hundred miles of pursuit of the wind?

Sulu Khan was dumbfounded on the spot, and once doubted whether he was dazzled or dreaming, but he wiped his eyes and saw more clearly, yes, it was still Zheng Peng, and his own people were still following him dejectedly, without a daughter.

"Oh my God, Zheng Lezheng set off so late, but I didn't expect to be the first to return."

"Confirm that you are going to Luoyang? It's only been eight days, and it's more than a thousand miles back and forth. ”

"Xiao Lao said that Zheng Lezheng is not the kind of person who is exaggerated, so I will reply to the letter."

"That bicycle is really better than a horse?"

There was a lot of discussion, but it did not prevent everyone from shouting in unison:

"Zheng Lezheng, mighty"

"Zheng Lezheng, mighty"

"Zheng Lezheng, mighty"

Since entering Chang'an, Zheng Peng has been constantly receiving praise, the people of Datang are so enthusiastic, so enthusiastic that Zheng Peng has to thank him while riding, and finally reached the finish line, and then jumped off the self-made bicycle with a confident smile.

Tired is not tired, or the butt has been sitting for too long, and it hurts a little.

"I've seen Wang Siqing, I've seen Gonggong Gao." Unexpectedly, Gao Lishi was also there, and Zheng Peng hurriedly saluted the two.

Wang Changming looked at Zheng Peng, who was dusty and a little tanned, and said: "Zheng Lezheng has worked hard, please wait a while, the old man will communicate with the supervisors first, and then announce Zheng Lezheng's results later." ”

Zheng Peng's reply was too fast, so fast that Wang Changming suspected it, so he decided to communicate with the supervisors first, and then announce Zheng Peng's results later.

"Okay, Wang Siqing, please." Zheng Peng said with a smile.

"Hey, hey, Zheng Lezheng, congratulations, riding a bicycle, I just compared the limelight to the hundred-mile chasing wind, after today, Zheng Lezheng is a big celebrity in Chang'an and even the entire Tang Dynasty." Colliers said with a smile.

For Zheng Peng, Gao Lishi really loves and hates, it's this guy who scares himself out of a few cold sweats, but he has the ability to turn things around, so arrogant that he turns an inspirational drama into a farce, and has the ability to turn a farce into a comedy, or even a legendary drama.

Zheng Peng said modestly: "My father-in-law has a good reputation, that is, he is a false name." ”

"By the way, Zheng Lezheng, this bicycle is really amazing, it can run more than 200 miles a day, which is amazing." Gao Gonggong sighed.

If it weren't for the newspaper saying that Zheng Peng did it all the way without any cheating, Gao Lishi wouldn't have believed it.

Is this fast?

More than 200 miles, more than 100 kilometers a day, this speed is very slow, in later generations, some professional cyclists, can ride at a speed of 50 or 60 kilometers per hour for more than ten hours, if they work hard, a day is enough to go back and forth.

In fact, Zheng Peng can easily return a day or two early, as soon as he is too tired, he also has to save some face for the people of Tuqishi, after all, they guard the frontier for Datang.

It's not easy to say this, seeing Gao Lishi's gaze, glancing at the bicycle from time to time, Zheng Peng said in a low voice: "Before leaving, a certain craftsman has been asked to make it and prepare it for His Majesty, and I have also prepared one for Gao Gonggong, so that Gao Gonggong can also experience it." ”

"Got a bicycle for the miscellaneous family too?" Colliers' eyes lit up and he asked with some surprise.

"Grandpa Gao takes care of it so much, I have always wanted to pay homage, but I have never had a chance, now there is a little idea that is quite fun, a little meaning, not a tribute, and I hope that Grandpa Gao will not dislike it."

Gao Lishi rubbed his hands and said with a happy face: "Hehe, don't dislike it, the miscellaneous family has always told His Majesty that Zheng Le is the pillar of the Tang Dynasty, on the day of the competition, many people have little confidence in Zheng Lezheng, but the miscellaneous family has always believed that Zheng Lezheng will have a surprise, and sure enough." ”

People are curious, Gaolishi is no exception, Zheng Peng rode a bicycle out of Chang'an that day, his heart was itchy, seeing Zheng Peng riding a bicycle back, all pondering how to get one, I didn't expect Zheng Peng to be so on the road, take the initiative to send one.

Just as Zheng Peng was chatting with Gao Lishi, the Sulu Khan in the crowd was also asking sharply: "Anka, what's the matter?" What about Xavier? What about chasing the wind for 100 miles? What about Landot? Where are they? Why did Deputy Envoy Zheng return to Chang'an first? ”

They were all in a hurry, and Zheng Peng returned, but Zawel, the representative of the Turgish, was nowhere to be seen, and the angry and anxious Sulu Khan sent people to bring Ankara to him.

Anka is one of the members of the overseer, and together with the people of Honglu Temple, he monitors Zheng Peng's every move throughout the whole process to prevent Zheng Peng from cheating on the way.

Asking so many questions at once, Ankha was a little confused, and coupled with the hatred of the Sulu Khan looking at him with a sea of eyes, Ankka stammered a little and said, "But... Khan, Deputy Envoy Zheng from... When Luoyang returned, he left Zavier behind, and it was estimated that he was still far behind, as for the county lord of Lando, she, she said that it was not good to follow Deputy Envoy Zheng into Chang'an, and she left the team before she arrived in Chang'an, and returned to the post house alone. ”

Landor left the party alone?

Returning to Chang'an before leaving the team? In other words, Landuo is not lazy, and has been following the whole process?

With his daughter's shrewdness, Zheng Peng has no chance to cheat, that is to say, Zheng Peng did not cheat, and really relied on that pile of wood to win his proudest hundred miles of chasing the wind?

Sulu Khan couldn't react a little, and said with a shocked face: "Why is this happening, I can't change my money for a hundred miles chasing the wind, and it's not as good as a pile of wood in Datang, how is it possible?" ”

There was really a passing Hu merchant who was willing to give 1,000 taels of gold in exchange for Sulu Khan's horse, but Sulu Khan refused without hesitation, and now he lost to a pile of wood in Baili Chasing the Wind, which made it difficult for Sulu Khan to accept.

This, how is that possible.

Anka and his entourage have long discussed this issue with Landuo, and whispered when they heard this: "Khan, the performance of Baili chasing the wind is very good, Datang is more sultry, and Anxi is very different, the horse runs for half an hour and sweats all over the body, it is not easy, and Deputy Zheng makes that bicycle, no need to eat and drink, no need to rest, just ride and go, just occasionally replace some parts, Deputy Zheng looks a little thin, like a scholar, but his physical strength is very good, and he is not tired after riding for half an hour in one breath." ”

After a pause, Ankha whispered: "The county lord of Lando once borrowed Deputy Envoy Zheng's bicycle to experience, she said that riding is very easy, easier than walking, and after riding for a while, it doesn't consume much physical strength." ”

Lan Duo was very curious about Zheng Peng's bicycle all the way, so to put it mildly, Zheng Peng just refused to borrow it, and finally gritted his teeth, put down the county lord's shelf, and was unwilling to rub Zheng Peng's shoulder for a quarter of an hour, Zheng Peng let go and let Lan Duo take it to play for a while.

In Landuo's words, this is called enduring humiliation, taking the opportunity to see if Zheng Peng is cheating, of course, there is no need to tell Khan.

When Sulu Khan heard this, his heart was cold, and he asked a little unwillingly: "Along the way, Deputy Envoy Zheng really didn't cheat?" ”

"The county lord has raised the stakes on the road, and he is more nervous than us, and he has been watching closely all the way, and he has never slackened."

At the mention of the bet, Sulu Khan felt a pain in his heart, and he also placed 500 yuan to buy Zavel to win, 500 yuan, this is a lot of money, worth dozens of good horses, not only himself, but also those subordinates also invested so much, some of their beloved horses and weapons were pawned, so they wanted to make a fortune and go back to enjoy.

If you can't get it right, the whole mission will go back like a Hanako.

Ignoring the pain of his own money, Sulu Khan said in surprise: "Didn't you bet three hundred gold, why, and increase the stakes?" ”

Three hundred gold, that's three thousand, not to mention that the embassy has placed all the money bets, but if you don't participate, this money is a little difficult to raise, and you have to increase the stakes?

If you win, you'll be smiling, and I'm not afraid of them defaulting anyway, but now... Lost.

Anka said with a sad face, "The county lord has increased the bet to a thousand gold. ”

What, a thousand gold?

Sulu Khan was taken aback when he heard this, and his face changed: up and down the mission, most of them thought that they had money to send to the door, don't want it in vain, almost all of them were desperate, few had spare money, a thousand gold, that was 10,000 yuan, let alone 10,000 yuan, the entire mission could not make up a thousand yuan.

Is it possible to sell horses and sell your body and walk back to Anxi?
