Zhongmu County is bordered by Kaifeng in the east and Zhengzhou in the west. When Lu Bu appeared here, it was already the third day after he set off from Luoyang to pursue Cao Cao.

In fact, Lu Bu had already arrived in Zhongmou County last night, because he searched carefully for Cao Cao's traces all the way but found nothing, so he ended up staying in a post house outside the county.

Of course, he was a little more careful when staying in the posthouse this time, but without Cao Cao's troubles, everything became smooth and safe, which also made Lu Bu's care unnecessary. There was no accident, but Cao Cao's trace was still missing.

Under such circumstances, the Xiliang cavalry would have been ready to return home long ago, but Lu Bu still had his obsession, and Lu Bu needed their help if he wanted to stay and deal with Cao Cao, and they couldn't refute it, so of course they stayed to help he.

Lu Bu knew that these Xiliang soldiers still had some complaints in private. After all, these people in this area of ​​Henan County are not familiar with them, and they thought it would only be an easy pursuit. No one thought that such a thing would happen. It has been two days, and their patience is obviously not enough. Of course, Lu Bu ignored their impatience and dissatisfaction, and they only dared to complain in private.

As for the leader of this team of cavalry, his surname is Wang Mingde, and his style name is Zhongming.

The so-called head of a village is naturally the head of a village, a middle- and low-level officer in the army, and a village has two teams with 50 people in each team. There are only nearly 30 people around him.

When I came to Zhongmu County, I wanted to find someone. Of course, Lu Bu also wanted to meet the county magistrate, the magistrate, etc., and borrowed their help. However, before Lu Bu went by himself, someone came to visit him. It was Zhongmu. County magistrate.

It's just that the county lieutenant was not there, the county magistrate was ill, and there was only the county magistrate in the county yamen at this time, and he only came with a few yamen servants at this time, but he didn't dare not to come when he heard about Lu Bu's identity.

The county magistrate looked only [-] years old, so he naturally had a righteous look on his face, which made Lu Bu feel good about him, and his conversation was not bad.

The county magistrate is the head of a county, but in terms of rank, it is only three hundred shi, and there is no comparison with Zhonglang General Lu Bu, who has a rank of two thousand shi. However, Lu Bu is not a general he can provoke, let alone Lu Bu himself has the status of Tinghou.

Therefore, the county magistrate was quite respectful to Lu Bu, and he basically answered any questions Lu Bu had.

Finally, when asked about Cao Cao, Lu Bu first described Cao Cao's appearance, and then asked, "Have the magistrates seen this person before?"

The county magistrate just shook his head and said: "Don't blame the general, I have never seen this person, maybe he bypassed this county and continued east..."

"Is that so..." Lu Bu frowned, feeling a little impatient.

How could it be possible to lose it?

Cao Mengde hit himself with an arrow, and Lu Bu was sure of the effect of that arrow. Although it didn't hit a fatal vital point, its strength was almost enough to penetrate his body. The damage it caused was undoubtedly huge, and it was also very human. Can bear it, of course this Cao Cao is not an ordinary person, but no matter how strong his perseverance is, his physical fitness is still not as good as that of Lu Bu, how can he be able to bear it until now but has disappeared?

And it was a bit weird to think about losing his trace that time, because at that time, he obviously saw a bloodstain, followed the bloodstain, and found a cave ten steps away, but there was no trace. Wouldn't it just evaporate like this?

Lu Bu couldn't figure it out, but he was very sure. It could even be said that he had an intuition telling himself that the direction he was looking for was not wrong. Cao Cao was here, or nearby.

After all, he was injured, and he was already close to the outskirts of Zhongmou County at that time. Even if he was still alive and awake, I believe he would not run far unless he didn't want to die. After all, arrow injuries in this world are very serious. Difficult to deal with, if you are not careful, it will be fatal, and you don't have to do it yourself when the time comes.

Looking at the county magistrate in front of him, for some reason Lu Bu's heart suddenly moved, he narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile, "I don't know your name?"

"A mere unknown soldier, not enough for the general's concern." The county magistrate felt vaguely uneasy, and the answer that was about to blurt out changed in a different way.

Lu Bu smiled even brighter, "Your surname is Chen Minggong, and your name is Gongtai?"

The county magistrate's face changed, and he looked at Lu Bu like he was looking at a monster.

Although he is an official appointed by the imperial court and has always boasted that he is talented, but because of the current situation and opportunities, he can only stay in Zhongmou County at present, and naturally no one knows his existence.

However, this general in front of him, who is of extraordinary status at first glance, can know his name and character, but he is very sure that it is impossible to know each other. I have never had an impression of this person before. As for the people I know I am afraid that none of those people will be able to know this general, and naturally they will not pass on their name, so what is going on?

He was still there in doubt, but after the initial change of color, his face quickly returned to calm, which made Lu Bu couldn't help but admire in his heart that he was worthy of being a top strategist, and his demeanor was extraordinary, but his face just now The changes have naturally been captured long ago, so if he said that he was just guessing or testing at the beginning, he is completely sure now.

With this affirmation, Lu Bu suddenly felt that Cao Cao might really be here with Chen Gong, but Chen Gong didn't admit it, so he couldn't be sure.

In fact, Lu Bu also knew that the Romance was really unreliable. He said that Cao Cao and Chen Gong met in Zhongmou, and then there was a "catch and release Cao". But there is a problem here, that is, Chenggao is obviously in the west of Xingyang, which is the so-called Hulao, but Lao Luo's tricks have turned it into the east of Xingyang, which is a hundred and eight thousand miles away.

Of course, I don't fully believe in Lu Bu in Romance, and I don't think he will be misled, but now there is a little more uncertainty.

The only thing that is certain is that Chen Gong was indeed Cao Cao's counselor in history, and later he voted for Lu Bu, which means that he is indeed suitable for Cao Cao's relationship.

As for whether Chen Gong had ever been in Zhongmou, Lu Bu really didn't remember whether there was any record, so he didn't think about it at the beginning.

"How did the general know me?" Chen Gong thought for a while, and answered hesitantly.

Lu Bu smiled lightly, not intending to answer, but added a bit of mystery.

Chen Gong began to be cautious, feeling uncomfortable sitting here under Lu Bu's gaze, and cupped his hands after a while, "If the general has nothing else to do and there is still work in the yamen, then Gong will leave first."

Seeing him turn away directly after smiling and nodding, Lu Bu's eyes suddenly narrowed. Wang De next to him leaned over and asked, "General, is Cao Cao really here?"

Lu Bu thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Hehe, although I'm not sure if Cao Cao is really here, it won't hurt to try..."

Although Wang De didn't know what he meant by "give it a try", he curled his lips when he heard it, thinking that after so many days of hard work and exhaustion by you, in the end he was not sure and asked us to go again, but this is also He only dared to think in his heart, he didn't have the guts to ask him to refute Lu Bu face to face.

In fact, his Xiliang cavalry squad has now been "requisitioned" by Lu Bu.

But Lu Bu was thinking about tonight's events in his mind, it would be better to catch the scene, maybe he could also take in a top strategist by the way - it was indeed a better idea.
