Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 48 Lin Mo's Choice

Lu Bu showed full sincerity, which Lin Mo could really feel.

He didn't say a word, but Lin Mo's eyes couldn't hide his dusty face. He should have come back from Jiujiang.

Looking at the greeting card in his hand, there is a burning feeling.

Lin Mo's mind was in a mess, and he hadn't fully reacted to the bloody plot of his father-in-law who had been acquiescing for several months and turned into the invincible Wen Hou Lu Bu, so he had to decide whether to stay or not.

This is obviously difficult for Lin Mo.

Going to Xuchang means that there is a high probability that you will live a life of peace of mind from now on. With prophetic skills and inventions that transcend the times, it is not difficult to become a hot presence in Cao Ying.

Staying here means facing a lot of mess. Although Lu Bu has expanded his territory to a certain extent, those soldiers and horses are mixed, the aristocratic family is not attached to him, and he has an opponent who is so strong that it makes people dread. It is not wise to look at it.

This is like asking you to give up a broad road leading to a bright future, and choose a rugged mountain road that is likely to end in oblivion.

But ah, what he said just now, and the greeting card in his hand, are all telling that this chaotic tiger really considers himself a relative.

Going to Cao Ying, in his own capacity, Cao Cao has limited love and affection.

If he doesn't do it well, he will become the person who can't sleep for Cao Cao.

Lin Mo rubbed his eyebrows, feeling melancholy.

Choice is very difficult, because choosing one way means giving up another way.

In a dilemma, Xu Sheng came over, "He really left."

Lin Mo nodded and said nothing.

Xu Sheng added, "There are several official roads, post roads, and seven mountain roads to Xuchang. Once we set off, it is impossible to pursue them."

"I know he's not testing me." Lin Mo understood what Xu Sheng was implying.

If he wanted to use these methods, he would not even be able to get past Xiao Guan.

However, Lin Mo has not yet been able to make a choice that is firm enough not to make him regret it.

Time flowed slowly, Xu Sheng didn't rush, but stood quietly behind Lin Mo.

He may also understand that his young master is making a very important choice.

"Wen Xiang."

As the sun was setting, Lin Mo finally spoke, "Are you willing to give up going to Wu County for me?"

I thought it was a difficult choice, but Xu Sheng replied without thinking, "If the young master decides to vote for Cao, I will escort the young master to Xuchang and then transfer to Wu County.

If the young master stays in Xuzhou, then I will accompany the young master. "

Lin Mo turned his head to look at Xu Sheng in surprise.

What does this mean?
"My parents both died under Cao Jun's knife when Xuzhou was massacring the city, but I will not assassinate him in Xuchang. I don't want to implicate my son." A rare sadness appeared on Xu Sheng's always silent face.

Lin Mo only knew that he went to Pengcheng to work as a nursing home because of the massacre of the city in the three counties, but he didn't know about these things.

No wonder I asked him several times if he would like to stay, but he was always vague.

It turned out that he didn't want to go to Cao Ying.

"Young master, I'm a stupid person, but I know that there are some things in this world that should not be measured by gain or loss."

Xu Sheng has always been a seldom talker, and he is a type of question and answer. Today, he rarely took the initiative to speak, "There are too few things that can't be met, and you should take good care of them when you encounter them. Just like the son treats me well, I understand in my heart. So I have never judged whether it was better for Wu Jun in the past, or better stay with the young master."

These words made Lin Mo's turbid brain feel as if he heard the morning bell and the evening drum, and it became clearer for a while.

He chewed on the deep meaning, and re-examined his value orientation and life choices in this world.

Some things shouldn't be measured.

For example, love in the heart.
Lu Bu has affection for me.

"Besides, the young master has repeatedly mentioned your father-in-law's help to you. I also thought about a question just now."

Xu Sheng asked with some doubts: "Of course the young master assisted Wen Hou, but in this period of time, Wen Hou has created you, young master."

Those so-called artifacts and so-called strategies for calming chaos, if not because of meeting Lu Bu, would have a certain probability of being appreciated by others.

But under the oppression of the lowly peasant status in this era, there is a greater probability that everyone will be innocent in exchange for the end of the crime.

Even Xu Sheng understood this truth.

When I was in Xuzhou, if it wasn't for his love, how could the Lu family and the Chen family think highly of me?
Even now, as the Jiuyuan tiger who looks down on the world, he put aside all the military affairs on the front line and came here not to stop himself, but to give himself a chance to choose.

If the friendship and kindness he gave me can be ignored, then what else can I pursue.

If one day we meet on the battlefield, and he asks me why I don’t want to stay and help after working so hard, should I say that it’s not worth it?
Lin Mo asked himself, but he couldn't say such a thing, because in such a field, the questioning in Lu Bu's eyes would be sharper than Fang Tian's painting halberd.

Not to mention Lu Bu, if he really came to Cao Yingli, I'm afraid Cao Cao would look down on himself like this.

Literati have strength of character, and warriors also have affection.

There are some things in this world that really shouldn't be measured by gain or loss.

Lin Mo slowly closed his eyes, feeling quietly, feeling the originally entangled dilemma in his heart, which caused great waves, and was finally drawn out by an invisible knife.

This invisible knife is called giri.

Everyone should have it. Guan Yu could live on forever with it. Yu Jin lost the knife and finally died of shame.

At this moment, Lin Mo had a feeling of enlightenment, "I think, I should also hold this knife tightly. With it, I will not regret it for the rest of my life; with it, I will not be afraid Guo Jia Xunyu; with it, I can overcome the thorns and thorns on this rugged path."

"What are you talking about, young master?" Xu Sheng was a little confused by the emotion for no reason.

After exhaling a foul breath, he stretched his waist, then raised his head and said, "Let's go! Follow me back to Xuzhou!"

"My lord decided to stay?" Xu Sheng's eyes lit up, obviously, he didn't want Lin Mo to go to Xuchang either.

"Let him be Cao Cao with thousands of troops, let him have a bright future in Xuchang, there will always be soldiers and horses in this world who are helpless, things that cannot be bought by wealth." At this moment, Lin Mo was extremely firm in his choice.

Even if I lose to Guo Jia, Xun You, Jia Xu and others in the future, the worst thing is to die again.

A scholar dies for a confidant.

When you really understand this sentence, you will understand that what is precious is not the fearlessness of going to death, but the desire for a confidant.

Lin Mo is not sure whether Lu Bu is a confidant, but he will be his family, which Lin Mo believes.

The two walked through the woods, rode on their war horses, turned the horse's head around and galloped with whips.

Letting go of the shackles in my heart, it seems that even the wind is full of freedom.

When he came to Xiaoguan City, Lu Bu was standing under the city pass, his red cloak looked very dazzling in the setting sun.

The moment he saw Lin Mo, the light in his eyes and the joy on his face intertwined.

"Marquis Wen, I would like to go back to Xuzhou with you." Lin Mo jumped off his horse and bowed to Lu Bu who was walking towards him.

"I don't like this title." Lu Bu shook his head.

"But Ling'er." The moment he knew Lu Bu's identity, he knew that the so-called nurse Ling'er was Lu Lingqi.

If it weren't for preconceived misidentification, it would not be difficult to guess.

"I know Ling'er. She has a strong temper. If she doesn't have feelings for you, it's impossible to send a horse to inform me."

The hint in Lu Bu's words is obvious.

After Lin Mo smiled comfortably, he clasped his hands again, "My son-in-law Lin Mo, I would like to help my father-in-law!"

"it is good!"

Lu Bu took a step forward, pressed Lin Mo's shoulders heavily with both hands, and said with a big smile, "This is my good son-in-law."

"Lord Yuezhang, be gentle." This hand almost took off Lin Mo's arm.

"Come with me, I'll show you something." He dragged Lin Mo to Xiaoguan, but instead of entering the inner city, he went up the city gate along the city ladder. up, looking ahead.
