Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 656 The Ancestral Tomb of the Sima Family (4000)

There is also the inseparable "friendship of the same robe".

I bother!

In the past few days, Cao Chun has seen Bai Jingjing and Zhen Mi sleeping in Wu Liang's tent more than once, and sometimes they even stayed overnight together. Are you sure this is "friendship in the same robe"?
Instead of sleeping out of feelings? !
Boss Cao’s army is quite strict. Even drinking alcohol during the expedition is strictly prohibited, and some people were even beheaded because of this, let alone bringing female family members to sing and sing every night during the expedition. This is definitely something that Boss Cao cannot tolerate. !
But Wu Liang did this matter so aboveboard that he simply ignored the military regulations formulated by Boss Cao!
"Humph……"

Looking at the handsome young female school captain, the old Sima who was too old to walk, and the little boy who should have some kind of official position, Cao Chun just felt angry and wished he could replace him. Boss Cao took the initiative to eradicate Wu Liang, a cancer that would one day endanger the entire army.

However, how did he know that Boss Cao knew everything about them.

Not only is it clear, he even has some understanding of the backbone of this group of Tuan army. After all, Cao Ang and Cao Ting have personally followed Wu Liang to the tomb before. Jingjing, Yu Ji, Dianwei, and Yang Wanli all knew the indispensable functions they assumed in the Tuan army, and these information had naturally reached Boss Cao's ears through the mouths of these two people.

Female school lieutenant?
Old Sima?
Let's just put it this way, Wu Liang didn't seal these official posts casually, and he handed over a letter to Boss Cao for each of them.

As for the affairs of this secret army, Boss Cao has always done it himself. He personally approved all the letters, and he personally sent someone to deliver them.

It's just that Boss Cao will definitely not gossip about these things, let alone Cao Chun, his younger brother, and even Cao Ang's own son, doesn't know the exact official positions of the backbone of the Huan army.

Of course, they don't really need to know.

Because the backbone of the Tuan army does not participate in the war, naturally they will not have a subordinate relationship with other officers. They just hold the salary of the corresponding official position and do some secret things that Boss Cao tacitly approves all day long. Do the officers in Cao Ying know? It doesn't really matter what their identities are.

And Cao Chun probably forgot.

A few days ago, Boss Cao called him into the camp and said to him: "From now on, you and the tiger and leopard cavalry who were secretly trained will be deployed by General Wu. What he says is what I say. This is a military order!"

He came to be a security guard for Wu Liang.

Instead of being an eyeliner for Boss Cao, he came to investigate the life style and discipline of the Liren Army, so he has exceeded his authority when he comes up with these messy thoughts, and some don't know his identity...

……

Seeing that Cao Chun didn't speak for a long time, Wu Liang thought that he was just being old-fashioned and didn't like these things about sightseeing, so he smiled again, cupped his hands and said: "If my son and brother are not interested in these things, naturally I can't force it. But we still have to ask Zi and brother to go with us, if Zi and brother really don't want to participate, then they can lead people to do a good job of defense for us nearby, thank you."

"???"

Hearing this, Cao Chun almost laughed angrily again.

How could this rascal's face be so big!
Isn't my appearance not obvious enough? He still insists on going to the hot spring for sightseeing, and dares to tell me to ride with tigers and leopards to defend, it is simply unreasonable!
Cao Chun felt that his inner pride was being provoked by Wu Liang...

at last.

Cao Chun couldn't hold back, glared at Wu Liang and said in a cold tone: "If Wu Taishi goes on business before, he will be responsible for his own duties. If Wu Taishi just drags his family to visit, please forgive me." I will not be able to obey my orders, and after I go back, I will report to Brother Mengde everything I saw and heard during this trip!"

"?"

Is this guy trying to pick someone up?
Wu Liang looked at Cao Chun quite unexpectedly.

He thought that there had been no conflicts with Cao Chun these days, and he was always polite when talking to him, and never offended him, so he didn't understand why he reacted like this at this moment .

Could it be that they are dissatisfied with the current situation of the Huan army?

This possibility is very big.

After all, just now, Cao Chun had already expressed some dissatisfaction with his "negligence of duty and delaying his family" in words, and even raised it to the level of "living up to brother Mengde's special trust".

Wu Liang didn't take these words seriously.

I only think that Cao Chun may be too rigid, and he probably doesn't know much about the Huan army, so he came up with such an idea. When the two sides get familiar with each other and experience some things together to improve their understanding, these problems will naturally come to an end. It was solved easily.

But he didn't expect that Cao Chun would give him a problem at this time.

This meant that Dian Wei couldn't go with him because of his injury, otherwise Wu Liang would never have accepted Boss Cao's "good intentions" to bring Cao Chun and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry along.

In fact, they were not brought to deal with ordinary threats, but mainly to prevent encountering Lu Bu during the investigation process. Without Dian Wei, Wu Liang still felt a little guilty when facing Lu Bu.

And things have come to this point...

Since you don't show affection, don't blame me for not laughing and laughing with you.

Wu Liang's complexion also instantly darkened, his gaze swept over Cao Chun's face with a slight coldness, and he said, "Cao Shilang should remember what Duke Ming told you before he came out, right?"

"I remember it!"

Cao Chun responded to Wu Liang's gaze, and said neither humble nor overbearing.

"Okay, Cao Chun listens!"

Wu Liang shouted in a deep voice, "I'm going to investigate the hot springs in the county now, and you and the tigers and leopards will ride by to guard, so there must be no mistakes!"

"I……"

Cao Chun's face was obviously very unconvinced, and he wanted to say something else.

"What I say is what Duke Ming said. This is a military order! Don't you want to disobey Duke Ming's order?!"

Wu Liang's voice suddenly rose, and the expression on his face became much more severe, and an indescribable oppression and majesty suddenly emanated from his whole body.

"This……"

Everyone in the Huanren Army also looked at Wu Liang unexpectedly, because even they had hardly seen Wu Liang in such a state at this moment.

Of course, this is mainly due to the fact that no one in the Huan army has ever confronted Wu Liang like Cao Chun.

The longer they knew Wu Liang, the more they understood that although Wu Liang always seemed to be smiling and polite no matter who he spoke to, deep down he was a ruthless character.

So far, many people have died under his seemingly harmless smile, such as the "Yin soldiers" of Le'an State, Ma Chao, the son of Ma Teng in Liangzhou, and the general and national teacher of Shanshan State. , and even some people don't even know who killed them until now.

And now.

Cao Chun should actually feel lucky that Wu Liang put on this posture in front of Cao Chun.

Because this meant that Wu Liang didn't intend to be serious about Cao Chun because of Boss Cao's face, but just wanted to establish his prestige in front of him and use him to finish this matter.

although……

This is not Wu Liang's usual style of doing things.

"……promise."

Boss Cao was still useful. Even if Cao Chun was forced, he still had to give Wu Liang a military salute.

On the other hand, Wu Liang just glanced at him indifferently, and when he turned his head to look at the people in the Huan army, his smiling face was restored, and he waved his hands and urged, "What are you doing here, go and clean up, we are ready to go."

……

Wu Liang knew that after this incident, his image in Cao Chun's heart must have been extremely rotten.

But this is not important, because in Wu Liang's mind, Cao Chun and Hubaoqi themselves are just tool people that have to be used in this trip, and they are the kind that will not have any intersection after they are used up, there is no need What friendship do you have with him?

In fact, this is not a bad thing for Boss Cao.

After all, Cao Chun and Tiger Leopard Cavalry are Boss Cao’s true descendants, and they are responsible for Boss Cao’s guard work. This is the case when they have not formed a scale. The same is true of the highest command body.

Wu Liang never thought of entering Boss Cao's "dominant mansion".

With Boss Cao's temperament, he certainly doesn't want his "Tiger Leopard Rider" to have too close a relationship with anyone, otherwise that person will definitely become a thorn in the flesh of Boss Cao, making him think about it when he sleeps at night.

and so.

A tool person should look like a tool person, and he can't be confused about his position and identity, let alone try to influence Wu Liang's decision by acting on his behalf.

And he believed it.

In fact, Cao Chun didn't dare to drop the pick directly, at least he wouldn't drop the pick before Wu Liang safely returned to Cao Ying, otherwise he would slap himself and Hubaoqi in the face, and it would be even more difficult to explain to Boss Cao.

After handling this "little matter" so neatly, everyone in the Huan army quickly made preparations.

So the group went out in a carriage, and under the guidance of Yang Wanli, they first went to a hot spring called "Zi Shui" by the locals.

Someone should have guessed it by now.

Another hot spring is called "Mother Water".

These two hot springs do not come from the same spring, and the distance between the two springs is about one mile.

It's just that the two hot springs flow in exactly the same direction, and eventually they both destroyed a tributary of the Yellow River called "Bromoshui". In addition, they both have the strange characteristics of "cool in summer and warm in winter".

Therefore, hot springs with a larger flow rate are called "mother water", while hot springs with a smaller flow rate are called "child water".

And there are still some locals who think.

The "mother water" and the "child water" probably come from the same underground source, but they were blocked by the earth and finally gushed out two springs.

Wu Liang agrees with this point.

They should at least come from the same groundwater system, otherwise they should not have the same characteristics.

that's it.

Including Cao Chun and the tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers, a group of 20 people left the county town and walked northward for less than five miles, before they entered a mountain, rocks and trees.

This is no longer a relatively spacious and flat official road, but a stone path that has obviously been repaired.

"Young master, the carriage cannot go any further when you get here. There are many rough places in front of you. You can only go on horseback or on foot."

Yang Wanli came to the front of the carriage that Wu Liang was riding in advance, opened the curtain and poked his head and said to Wu Liang.

"Is it still far?"

Wu Liang asked.

"It's not far away. You only need to walk half a mile on this path to reach Zishui. If you want to go to Mothershui, you need to go one mile deeper."

Yang Wanli replied.

"Then ask everyone to come down and walk there, and leave a few people here to keep an eye on our carriage."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, got up and jumped off the carriage.

Looking around in this way, there is a relatively open flat land not far from here, and there are still many ruts on the flat land, and several horse-tethering stones are set up next to it, so it is not difficult to judge that this open land should have been It is used to park carriages, similar to the parking lot of scenic spots in later generations.

That is to say, there should be quite a few rich families who visit the hot springs on weekdays.

However, there is not a single horse or car in this open space today, which means that there are no people from rich families here today.

"Have you ever asked who repaired this path and this horse-tethering stone?"

Wu Liang then looked at Yang Wanli and asked.

"I've inquired about it, and it's the Sima family that Young Master mentioned earlier."

Yang Wanli replied, "The ancestral tomb of the Sima family is also in this mountain. The stone and the trail were built by the Sima family for the convenience of worshiping the ancestral tomb, but the ancestral tomb is not in the same direction as the two hot springs. After walking through the first section of the path, there will be a fork in the road. A barrier is set up on one of the fork roads, and a stone tablet is erected beside it as a warning. That is the path leading to the ancestral grave of the Sima family. The road goes to 'Zishui', we can't go wrong if we follow the path."

"The ancestral grave of the Sima family?"

The professional sensitivity made Wu Liang feel refreshed in an instant.

He didn't want to steal the Sima family's ancestral tomb, but he wanted to observe and see if there was anything special about the Sima family's ancestral tomb, especially in terms of Feng Shui.

After all, the Sima family completed the act of usurping Wei in history.

Although Wu Liang doesn't know Fengshui, he knows that there has always been a saying in the Celestial Dynasty that the fengshui of the ancestral tomb affects the descendants, especially for a family like the Sima family that can be called king and emperor. Only with the blessing of the noble energy of the dragon veins can we be able to make a difference.

But now.

Wu Liang didn't want to provoke the Sima family easily, especially he didn't want to provoke Sima Yi, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

So he decisively pulled Yang Wanli aside, lowered his voice and asked, "Is the ancestral grave of the Sima family guarded day and night?"

There are not only people like Guangchuan Wang Liuqu, there are tomb guards.

The ancestral graves of some famous families will also have grave guards, especially when these families are strong enough, grave guards are standard equipment for the family.

After all, such a thing as tomb robbery is not new now, it has appeared since the Chinese dynasty had the custom of lavish burials.

Just like the Wang family of Chenliu before, Wang Qingcai had just buried his father, and the grave was dug up and the funerary objects were stolen. This is something no one wants to happen, so as long as the aristocratic family has spare power, they will definitely set up grave guards day and night. ancestral grave...
