The first thousand three hundred and seventy-seventh chapters travel around

As time passed, Li Xiu and his relatives around him grew older and the pace of death was getting closer and closer. The first one to leave was Yi Niang. Although she was two years younger than Li Xiu, she was not in good health, especially when she was older, she often fell ill. As a result, she died the second year of Li Xiu's 70th birthday. Then Yue Chan also left. The successive blows also made Li Xiu seriously ill. Fortunately, Princess Pingyang was accompanied by him, which made him slowly survive.

But in the second year of Yi Niang and Yue Chan's death, Princess Pingyang couldn't get sick. After all, she was a few years older than Li Xiu. Although she was strong because of her martial arts practice for many years, she could not resist the invasion of time. Finally, she closed her eyes forever in Li Xiu's arms. Even though Li Xiu was a human being for two lifetimes, she thought she had seen through life and death, but she couldn't help crying.

However, just after Princess Pingyang passed away, two bad news came from America. One was Li Yuanji's death and he was walking in front of his sister. The other was Qi Niang's serious illness. Although he had been cured temporarily after diagnosis and treatment, Qi Niang's physical condition was not optimistic. According to Li Chengdao's letter, Qi Niang's deadline might also be coming.

After just experiencing the pain of losing his wife, he now heard that his beloved sister was about to leave, which made Li Xiu feel sad. However, after experiencing the initial grief, he suddenly made a decision, which was to visit Qi Niang in person!

However, Li Xiu's decision to go to the Americas was opposed by everyone. After all, he is over 70 years old and is not in good health. With his current physical condition, even if someone takes care of him, he will have to take great risks if he wants to cross the Pacific Ocean. What's more, the sea conditions are harsh, and a big storm may destroy the entire fleet, so they don't want Li Xiu to take risks.

But Li Xiu had made up his mind this time, and no matter who persuaded him, it was useless. In the end, even Li Zhi and Ang joined forces to persuade him, but he could not let him dispel his thoughts. This made them very helpless and finally had to agree to him. Li Xiu also asked someone to contact Li Jin and asked him to send the best fleet to pick him up to America.

A few months later, Li Xiu worshipped his three wives, and then rushed to the beach without hesitation to board the ship and go out to sea. Ang Lee wanted to take care of him, but Li Xiu refused. However, in order to reassure his children, Li Xiu still brought a grandson, Li Jin's eldest son Li Yuan to take care of him. Li Yuan also followed Li Jin after he became an adult, and had a lot of sailing experience. This time the fleet was led by him.

Li Xiu was old and encountered many problems after going to sea. He even got sick once at sea, but this did not stop his determination to go to America. After a few months of sailing, the fleet led by Li Yuan finally crossed the Pacific Ocean to reach America. When Li Chengdao learned about Li Xiu's arrival, he was shocked and rushed to greet him in person. When Qi Niang, who was seriously ill, was also very happy when she saw Li Xiu, she seemed to have relieved her condition a lot.

However, Qi Niang's physical condition had reached the point where the oil was exhausted. Even if he saw Li Xiu's happiness, he could only make her feel better. However, in the following period, Qi Niang's condition deteriorated rapidly and finally passed away a month after Li Xiu's arrival. This made Li Xiu taste the feeling of grief again, and at this time he could not hold on anymore. After Qi Niang's funeral, he was completely ill.

Li Chengdao has always regarded Li Xiu as his brother and father. Although Qi Niang's death also made him extremely sad, he still forced himself to take care of the seriously ill Li Xiu. Under his careful care, Li Xiu's condition began to improve, but his physical condition was still not very good. Li Chengdao also put down his work and accompanied Li Xiu outside for a walk, mainly to let him relax, and also wanted Li Xiu to see the achievements he and Qi Niang had over the years.

The area ruled by Li Chengdao was mainly in Central America and began to expand to North America. Under his and Qi Niang's rule, millions of Han people mainly lived in big cities everywhere, and there were also a large number of Mayans. They also learned Chinese from the Han people and wore Hanfu. In particular, Li Chengdao promoted everywhere that the natives in the Americas were the Yin people, which attracted many natives to join them.

Looking at the vibrant scene in the Americas, Li Xiu's heavy mood seemed to be getting better. Originally, Li Chengdao wanted him to retire in the Americas, but Li Xiu did not want to die in the Americas. Because he wanted to go back and be buried with Princess Pingyang and the others, his body was a little bit better, so he immediately asked Li Yuan to set sail. Li Chengdao's advice was fruitless and he had to send him away in person.

However, Li Xiu's fleet did not return to the Tang Dynasty directly, but went south along the coastline of America. First, he went to Li Ke. Compared with others, Li Ke had the shallowest foundation and the last one to come out of the Tang Dynasty. However, with the help of Li Chengdao, he has moved to South America, and in the northwest direction, which is the Peru area in later generations. However, his subordinates were relatively small, and now he has only built two major cities, and the rest needs to be developed slowly.

After Li Xiu lingered in Li Ke for a few days, he left America. This time he followed the warm current in the South Pacific and turned to Li Jin when he arrived at Xinzhou. Li Jin and Wu Mingkong had already started operating Xinzhou many years ago, so the situation here is much better than Li Ke's side. Seven or eight big cities were built alone, and the population was also very large. Moreover, Xinzhou is suitable for grazing, so there are ranches everywhere.

In addition, Li Jin and Wu Mingkong were ambitious. A Xinzhou did not satisfy them. Instead, they planned to go to South America in the future. After all, the territory there was so large that Li Ke alone could not afford it. Of course, this was not achieved in a short period of time. However, if they really went to South America in the future, Li Ke would have an opponent.

Li Jin and his wife had just returned from the Tang Dynasty. Because Princess Pingyang passed away before, Li Jin and his wife also went to attend the funeral. It was not until Li Xiu left that they left to return to Xinzhou. This time, when Li Jin saw Li Xiu coming, Li Jin and his wife tried their best to keep him, especially Li Jin wanted his father to stay so that he could be more filial. After all, he rarely went home overseas before, and his elder brother Ang Lee took care of his parents.

However, although Li Xiu lived in Xinzhou for a while and also saw the beautiful scenery and food in Xinzhou, he still refused to stay here. So a few months later, he bid farewell to Li Jin and his wife and a group of grandchildren again, and took a boat to Nanyang again because he wanted to go to Li Chengqian's place to see him.
