Immediately afterwards, Li Huan took out a lighter from the car and lit the tree branch.
"What is this?" Zhuge Liang was full of questions.
Li Huan smiled and said, "This lighter, made in a foreign country, is for you."
Zhuge Liang quickly took the lighter and, under Li Huan's guidance, lit it.
"Thank you, Brother Huan. This is much more convenient than a fire knife and flint!"
Zhuge Liang was overjoyed, as if he had found a priceless treasure.
Li Huan served three boxed meals, opened six bottles of wine, and invited Zhuge Liang and Hua Tuo to sit down and eat and drink.
Nothing happened that night.
The next morning, Li Huan was awakened by birdsong.
A light mist drifted through the valley.
Li Huan called for Zhuge Liang and Hua Tuo to get up, get in the carriage, and continue their journey.
After three hours, we finally arrived in Xinye County.
Upon hearing the news, Liu Bei led Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and others to go out and greet them.
Li Huan said loudly, "Uncle Liu, I kept my promise and brought Brother Liang back, and I'll even send you a divine doctor as well!"
Liu Bei beamed with joy, bowed deeply, and expressed his profound gratitude.
Zhuge Liang succinctly recounted his experiences in dealing with Cao Cao and rescuing Hua Tuo.
After hearing this, Liu Bei and the others were filled with admiration.
Li Huan stood next to Hua Tuo, put her arm around his shoulder, raised her phone, and took a group photo.
Seeing himself on the screen, Hua Tuo exclaimed in surprise, "This mirror is so clear! How wondrous, how wondrous..."
"Smile!" Li Huan reminded him.
Hua Tuo obeyed the instructions and smiled.
Click, photo taken.
Li Huan put his phone into his waist pouch and asked, "Uncle Liu, where is the fifty taels of gold you owe me?"
Liu Bei looked embarrassed: "We are still raising funds, please grant me a few more days."
Li Huan thought to himself, "I knew it. You're short on cash and can't come up with much gold."
Liu Bei cupped his hands and earnestly said, "I cannot sit or lie still without eating this boxed meal for a day! Please, Mr. Li Huan, stay in Xinye and serve as my strategist to help me fight against Cao Cao!"
Li Huan still refused: "I am not interested in being a strategist. I plan to go to the capital of Eastern Wu, set up a stall to sell boxed lunches, and earn Zhou Yu's gold."
Upon hearing this, Liu Bei's face was filled with disappointment.
Zhuge Liang hurriedly said, "Brother Huan, I'll go with you to Eastern Wu!"
“No!” Li Huan shook his head. “Cao Cao is about to send Xiahou Dun with an army of 100,000 to attack Xinye. If Liang Ge comes with me to Eastern Wu, who will assist Liu Bei in eliminating the enemy troops?”
Liu Bei was shocked: "One hundred thousand troops? Is the military intelligence reliable?"
