Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

An hour later.

Cao Pi and Cao Chun finished the cutscene in a fake manner, and led a group of tiger and leopard knights back to Chenliu angrily.

Cheng Yu, Wang Qing, and Zhu Lu stayed at the Huan army's garrison, and entered the meeting hall with Yin Jian to speak.

"Yin Junhou, do you know when Yongqiuhou will come back?"

Cheng Yu was the first to ask.

"It's hard to say, Prefect Cheng."

Yin Jian shook his head helplessly, and said, "Every time Yong Qiuhou goes out to do errands, the places he goes are far and near, and he may stop at any time on the way. No one knows when he will come back, and Fei Nu's You also know the characteristics, even if you want to contact him, you can only contact us unilaterally by Yong Qiuhou, and it is impossible for us to contact him."

"If this is the case, this matter will be difficult to handle..."

Cheng Yu sighed.

"I would really like to know what happened today. Didn't the talented and virtuous younger brother and the Duan army have always been highly valued by Duke Ming? Why did they suddenly send the second son and General Cao to embarrass them? Did it happen recently? What's something I don't know?"

Zhu Lu looked suspicious, looked at Yin Jian, then at Cheng Yu and Wang Qing, scratched the back of his head and asked in puzzlement.

This guy still doesn't know anything about the Huanren Army until now.

In his mind, Gu Renjun was an army of craftsmen who made pottery guis, squatting in the Yongqiu garrison and playing with mud on weekdays, and he never had the idea of ​​spying on what Wu Liang was doing every time he went out.

"..."

In fact, Wang Qing didn't know much about it, but he could probably guess that most of what Wu Liang and Huan Renjun did was some shady things, so he never asked.

"You can still see Duke Ming occasionally on weekdays, but none of you know what Duke Ming meant by doing this, let alone me."

Yin Jian never thought that Boss Cao would hand over the Huan army one day because of the things that the Huan army did in the past to save Cao Jun from danger, and it was inconvenient to say anything to "outsiders", so he shrugged and said, " And I can assure you that none of the officers and soldiers of the Huren Army have committed crimes recently, and they have never clashed with other troops... But I can feel that the Second Young Master and General Cao came here just now are not friendly."

Different from the three of them, Cheng Yu had read Yuan Shao's latest call to action, and knew what kind of army the Huan Army had always been, so he had already vaguely guessed what Boss Cao was thinking.

I'm afraid that the birds will be exhausted, and the good bow will be hidden...

However, this time Cao Pi and Cao Chun only led people to the Huan army garrison, but did not take action against the Wu Mansion, which was closer to Chi Chi and had a weaker defense force. It can also be seen that there is another meaning:
Although Boss Cao has already made up his mind to abandon the Huan army, he doesn't intend to abandon Wu Liang together.

Even Boss Cao may have thought of Wu Liang in this move. If he can take advantage of Wu Liang’s going out and get rid of the Liren army, everything will be settled when Wu Liang returns, so Boss Cao will not have to force Wu Liang any more. , Wu Liang naturally no longer had to face a dilemma.

Even though there may be some rifts between Wu Liang and Boss Cao because of this, he is still Boss Cao's son-in-law. As time goes by, this matter will eventually pass.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yu suddenly remembered the Battle of Wancheng not long ago. …

Before this, Wu Liang had a clear stand and expressed his reluctance to participate in war and political affairs many times, and Boss Cao never forced him, but when he was conquering Zhang Xiu not long ago, he forced him to go out with him and arranged for him People outside the army.

At that time, Cheng Yu was still puzzled by Boss Cao's arrangement, but now that he thinks about it carefully, it seems that Boss Cao already had the intention of separating Wu Liang from the Huan army.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yu suddenly regretted what he did just now, maybe he shouldn't have come...

"Cheng Taishou, do you have any news about this matter?"

Yin Jian, Wang Qing, and Zhu Lu discussed for a long time without finding a reason, and finally they all looked at Cheng Yu, who was scheming but never spoke.

"I don't know, maybe it's really just a routine inspection, we think too much."

Cheng Yu came back to his senses, smiled and shook his head and said.

"If it's just a routine inspection, why do we need so many soldiers?"

Zhu Lu immediately asked back, "And as far as I know, the soldiers and horses under General Cao's command are the best of the best. This can be seen from the horses and heavy armored stomachs of those soldiers."

"This is not unreasonable. I have seen that Duke Ming has always brought the second son by his side to participate in various affairs recently. It can be seen that he has the intention of nurturing him, and the second son is still young. When he goes out to inspect, he will send more people to protect him. It's a matter of reason."

Cheng Yu said again, "Since you know General Cao Chuncao, you should also know the usual responsibilities of him and his soldiers and horses. Duke Ming sent his own guards to accompany Second Young Master instead of calling other troops. This also shows that some problems."

"Uh……"

Hearing the words, Zhu Lu pondered for a moment with his mouth open, but was finally persuaded by Cheng Yu, nodded and said, "What Cheng Taishou said is not unreasonable, maybe we really are overthinking."

"If that's the case, didn't I just cause trouble for my young master?"

Yin Jian also said a little uneasy.

"Yin Junhou, don't worry too much."

Cheng Yu said with a smile on his face again, "There is nothing wrong with what you did just now. The military camp is a serious place, and everything should be done in accordance with the rules. If you are loyal to your duty, not only will Marquis Yongqiu not blame you, but Second Young Master and General Cao will definitely not be able to tell you anything wrong."

"That's good……"

Yin Jian nodded slightly.

"But everything can be changed."

Cheng Yu continued, "In my opinion, you should immediately order someone to transcribe a detailed roster and give it to me. When I return to the county, I will hand over this roster to the second son and General Cao, so as to show you Actively cooperate with the supervisor's attitude, so that even if the Second Young Master and General Cao are dissatisfied with the Huan army, most of the anger in their hearts can be dissipated. I can also be a witness."

"Cheng Taishou is right, so I will order someone to do it."

Yin Jian nodded again and again, in his mind the roster was nothing important.

"In addition, before Yong Qiuhou returns, you have to strengthen the control over the Tuan army. During this period of time, no one is allowed to take leave, and you are not allowed to step out of the Tuan army. Everything will be discussed after Yong Qiuhou returns, understand?" …

Cheng Yu said again.

"promise!"

Yin Jian responded.

However, neither Yin Jian, Zhu Lu nor Wang Qing could see through Cheng Yu's real intention at this moment.

He is actually arranging a way out for Wu Liang now.

Arms cannot hold back thighs, in his heart, Boss Cao is the thighs, and Wu Liang is the arms.

Now Boss Cao is probably already thinking about dealing with the army secretly, not to mention that Wu Liang is not in Chenliu at the moment, even if Wu Liang comes back, as long as Boss Cao makes a request, Wu Liang can only obey obediently.

Otherwise, even if Boss Cao didn't kill Wu Liang in the end, he would definitely put him under house arrest, and there would be no future for him.

Cheng Yu could understand the pros and cons of this, and Wu Liang was naturally more aware.

What Cheng Yu understands better is that adults don't talk about right and wrong, only pros and cons.

He believed that even if Wu Liang was unwilling in every possible way, after careful weighing, he would definitely make a choice that was beneficial to him, instead of fighting Boss Cao to the end, and eventually including himself.

Therefore, these soldiers stationed in the Huren Army probably won't be able to stay...

What he can do now is to appease them, lest they start to panic because of what happened today, and run away privately before Wu Liang returns.

Otherwise, it would be very troublesome to him, to Wu Liang, and to Boss Cao.

……

At the same time, Chenliu County City, Wu Mansion.

"Excuse me, military lords, is this the residence of General Wu Liang Wu?"

A middle-aged man in sackcloth leaned on a wooden stick and came to the steps of the gate, stretched his neck and looked around, and asked with a smile.

"What are you looking at, this is the residence of General Wu, and the idlers are waiting to leave!"

Seeing that the visitor was not dressed like a dignitary, the four soldiers standing guard at the door immediately moved to block his sight and shouted loudly.

"Looks like I found the right place."

But the middle-aged man laughed, and said with a salute, "I would like to trouble the military masters to go in and inform General Wu, saying that the old Zuo Ci came to pay a special visit. If General Wu has not forgotten the original agreement, he will definitely invite me in." .”

"Zuo Ci?"

Several soldiers looked up and down at the middle-aged man in front of them, but they didn't directly tell him about Wu Liang's going out. One of them hesitated for a moment and finally said, "Wait here, I'll go in and report."

Soon after.

Chen Jinshui came out from the courtyard with big strides, and when he saw the middle-aged man, he saluted first, and confirmed with respect, "Your Excellency is Zuo Ci, Immortal Master Zuo, right?"

"Exactly."

Zuo Ci returned the courtesy.

"May I ask you a question, where did you meet our young master for the first time?"

Chen Jinshui asked again.

"Jinyang City."

Zuo Ci knew that this was to confirm his identity, so he answered happily.

"Sure enough, it's Immortal Master Zuo, please hurry up."

Chen Jinshui hastily greeted him with a gesture of invitation, then took Zuo Ci straight into the courtyard, brought him all the way to the living room, and ordered someone to bring him good tea and treat him.

"You are Welcome."

After Zuo Ci thanked him, he still didn't see Wu Liang coming out to meet him, so he finally couldn't help asking, "General Wu has something important to do at the moment, so it's not convenient to meet me?"...

"To tell you the truth, our young master left for a long time more than two months ago, and has not returned yet, so we cannot come out to meet Immortal Master Zuo."

Chen Jinshui apologized, "However, my son mentioned it to me a long time ago. If you come to visit the mansion when he is not around, you must treat him as a guest of honor. If you have nothing urgent, you can stay at the mansion temporarily. I will talk to you after he comes back...Your Excellency is not too impatient, our son will come back every two or three months when we go out, and now more than two months have passed, and we will come back after a while gone."

"This……"

The main purpose of Zuo Ci's coming this time is naturally to get his remnants of the world. After he became a corpse exorcist, he no longer has a body, and the remnants of the world are his lifeblood. Even if Wu Liang seems to be virtuous , but still a little uneasy.

But now Wu Liang is not here.

It is impossible for Wu Liang to find a random place to store the remnants of the world, let alone entrust them to others for safekeeping, so we can only wait for Wu Liang to come back.

After hesitating for a while, Zuo Ci finally said to Chen Jinshui, "If that's the case, then I have to brazenly disturb the residence for a while."

"Where is it, your Excellency is a distinguished guest specially confessed by our young master, so how can it be called nuisance."

Chen Jinshui immediately smiled and said, "Your Excellency, please sit here for a while. I will send someone to clean up your house. If you have any needs, you can also ask me. I will definitely do it for you."

"It's work."

Zuo Ci nodded.

Looking at Chen Jinshui's back, Zuo Ci's affection for Wu Liang has improved a lot unconsciously during this trip.

From Chen Jinshui's words, at least it can be confirmed that Wu Liang is a person who keeps his promise, and he has always kept this matter in his heart. Unnecessary misunderstanding?

……

ten days later.

"Cough! Cough!"

Hua Tuo's body was getting worse day by day, and he had to breathe for a long time when he walked, especially now, after coughing twice, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Doctor Hua, can you still hold on?"

Wu Liang saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. Hua Tuo's life and death were related to their life and death.

Although he always believed in his heart that as long as history remained unchanged, Hua Tuo would be able to find a way to get rid of the strange poison, but as an anomaly in history, Wu Liang was also worried that history had changed because of his arrival.

The important thing is that if the rumors among the villagers of Sanmen Village are correct, Hua Tuo is almost at the deadline...

"Ugh……"

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Hua Tuo raised his pale face and said, "Wu Taishi, I can feel that my internal organs are gradually being damaged, and it has already affected my body. I'm afraid I won't live for a few days."

"Can you teach me to look at the dark spot on your belly again?"

Wu Liang said subconsciously.

"Why not."

Hua Tuo lifted his clothes with a wry smile.

At this moment, the black spot has expanded to his mastoid acupoint, and the black and blue silk thread around it has even stretched to the heart, making it look even more creepy.

"This……"

Seeing this scene, Wu Liang didn't know what to say.

"Wu Taishi, you don't have to hide anything from me now. You are also a person inspired by the Holy Mountain, and so are the others. When the black spot affects the internal organs, everything will be reflected on the face." , how could I not see it?"

Hua Tuo put down his clothes and continued with a wry smile, "I don't think I have much time, but you still have a chance. I sincerely hope that you can receive the inheritance of the Holy Mountain and take this inheritance out, otherwise it will be as you said before. Generally speaking, this place will be washed away by the Yellow River in a short time, and the achievements of our ancestors will be in vain, wouldn't it be a pity..."

Not finished.

"Boom—!"

A deafening bang suddenly sounded, and the entire dark secret realm was illuminated in an instant!
