(Well, a friend came from afar tonight, and half the class was dragged out to "accompany the guests", drinking and eating, and just came back after playing, sorry for the late... I am sorry to ask for a ticket~囧)

Outside Kaifeng City, Lujiazhuang.

When the sky was bright, there were two people lying on the couch in the guest room, sleeping soundly.

At this time, Chen Gong and Cao Cao were already very tired after traveling all night, especially Cao Cao, who was still injured and needed a good rest.

However, even in the home of Shi Bo, whom he should have trusted, Cao Cao was more vigilant than Chen Gong. He was awakened by a strange noise, because Lujiazhuang was located in the outskirts of Kaifeng, and there were no other people nearby. The house seemed lonely and empty, so the voice in the morning light seemed particularly loud and piercing.

He subconsciously wanted to touch the knife beside the bed, but this time Chen Gong was also awakened.

"Why didn't Meng De take a good rest, why did he wake up again?"

Cao Cao didn't answer directly, but shook his head and said, "Listen..."

"What's that sound?" After listening carefully, Chen Gong couldn't help being surprised.

Cao Cao said in a deep voice, "This is the sound of sharpening knives..."

"Sharpening the knife?" Chen Gong was even more surprised, but immediately laughed and said: "It seems that we are lucky, it must be your uncle's order, and the people in the village are preparing to kill chickens and pigs to entertain you and me. In your life Bo will soon be back from buying wine, but then he can relax for a while."

Cao Cao, however, was obviously not as optimistic as he was. He frowned anxiously and said, "I'm afraid Gongtai is wrong. This sharpening knife may not be against pigs and sheep, but me."

Chen Gong was startled, almost wondering whether Cao Cao's wound had relapsed and his head was damaged.

Cao Cao said in a low voice: "Cao suspects that Lu Boshe is going to report to the government, and wants to use your head as a step up..."

Chen Gong was surprised and said: "Didn't Meng De say that Lu Boshe and your family are family friends? Why..."

"Secret friends?" Cao Cao sneered, and said in a low voice, "Even close friends have parted ways. In the face of interests and even wealth and life, what kind of friendship are you talking about?"

Chen Gong remained silent, and then asked: "What is Meng De planning to do?"

Cao Cao frowned, pondered for a while, and then said: "Cao doesn't want to put his life in the hands of others, and he doesn't want to sit and wait for death, so let's just do this..." Then he whispered in Chen Gong's ear, followed his As he spoke, Chen Gong's expression gradually changed, and finally changed drastically, and he said in a trembling voice: "How could this be?"

"Why can't it be like this?" Cao Cao snorted coldly: "They are not benevolent first, so they can blame us for being unrighteous? If we don't cut the grass and roots, it will be you and me who will lose their lives."

Chen Gongdao: "Then let's leave secretly? Besides...Meng De is just guessing, so how can he be sure?" He suddenly thought that Cao Cao hadn't presented any evidence, only the sound of the knife being sharpened by his ears could be used as evidence. Can't count.

"Look..." Cao Cao didn't explain much, but just pointed out the window. Chen Gong looked over and saw two big men walking by the gate of the mansion. There were occasional conversations between them, and they would look this way from time to time. It looks like they are watching them.

Although he still hesitated in his heart, seeing this, Chen Gong already believed what Cao Cao said, because the situation was indeed a bit strange, and perhaps there were some preconceived ideas that he himself did not realize. First of all, he believed what he said, and then he heard Cao Cao say, "If Gongtai still doesn't believe it, why don't we go to Houzhuang to eavesdrop and see what we want to do before making a decision?"

Naturally, Chen Gong would not object, so the two quietly left the guest room, and then sneaked to the outside of a thatched cottage in Houzhuang where the sound of sharpening knives came from.

The thatched cottage in Houzhuang had long been surrounded by wooden fences, and the two of them put their ears on the wooden wall, quietly pricking up their ears to listen to the movement inside.

"When the master left, he told us to do it first. How do we kill it?" While sharpening the knife, a voice inside asked.

"Tie them (them) first and then talk..." Another old voice replied, but Cao Cao's killing intent was instantly filled with killing intent, and Chen Gong was still hesitating, wanting to stop him, but Where is there still time.

I saw Cao Cao holding the seven-star treasured sword tightly in his hand, and his body went straight into the thatched cottage. He didn't look carefully, and he didn't care who was in front of him. The old, the young and the weak had no chance to resist, and they couldn't escape Cao Cao's massacre. After the killing, Cao Cao saw a chicken shed in the distance, and a pigsty behind the hen shed.

"This, this..." Chen Gong also came out right after him. Naturally, he would not be relentless when he saw Cao Cao's killer, and he also killed the few people Cao Cao passed by just now, but he also saw that at this time. Cao Cao suddenly knew where his doubts came from, and Cao Cao's suspicions were completely groundless. Even though the two people outside were suspicious just now, they were only suspicious, and the scene in front of him seemed to be accusing them silently. Wrong——Obviously, if the content of the conversation of the killed Zhuangli people was directed at this side, it should be that the two of them misunderstood them, because they were targeting those beasts , not the two of them.

Cao Cao's injury hasn't completely healed yet, and the rush and the anxiety just now made his face pale a little bit, and naturally the black cloud on his face became more prominent at this time, but his eyes were only flickering, but he didn't say what.

Only Chen Gong looked at him, pursed his lips and sighed: "We misunderstood him, but we killed these people in vain..."

Before he finished speaking, Cao Cao had already walked out with the knife in hand. Chen Gong was still reacting, and soon he heard screams from outside again. holding the Seven Star Sword, but there are already several corpses lying beside them, apart from the servants outside, and the two guards at the door that aroused their suspicion just now.

"Meng De, why are you doing this?" Chen Gong was stunned by this scene, he didn't expect that he knew that the two of them had killed someone by mistake, and that wasn't enough for him to kill someone outside who didn't know.

Cao Cao sneered, grabbed a piece of cloth from the side to wipe off the blood on the Qixing Dao, then pointed to the corpses and said: "If we don't act first, we will be found by them and flee, and then attract the government, you and me I'm afraid the only way to die."

Chen Gong was speechless. He had no way to refute Cao Cao. Although the other party's approach was contrary to his own philosophy, he had to say that there should be special means in special times, and the reasons Cao Cao said were acceptable, or he was subconsciously convincing himself in his heart. To trust Cao Cao, to accept his behavior.

Of course, there is one point that the two can reach an agreement without communicating, that is, this Zhuangzi can no longer stay at this time. After all, Lu Boshe, who went out to buy wine, will always come back. He explained that he and others were killed by mistake rather than intentionally?

So the two of them just tidied up in a hurry, got on their respective horses, and left the village quickly.

They walked quickly all the way, and they didn't know how long and how far they had been walking. Cao Cao suddenly called to stop, and Chen Gong and him restrained Ma Jingzhu and listened carefully.

"Da da da" The sudden sound of horse hooves naturally aroused the vigilance of Cao Cao and Cao Cao. Both of them pulled their horses to a stop and carefully looked at the person coming from the opposite side.

But when the figure that appeared in front of the two through the fog gradually became clear, and then saw each other's appearance clearly, the two were equally astonished—it was Lu Boshe!
