Three Kingdoms: I don’t want to fall in love in troubled times

Chapter 127 Autumn

While he was sleeping, Lu Bu found that some unexplained words suddenly appeared in his mind.

No, it's not as simple as words. To be precise, as long as he thinks about it, the carefully framed scroll will appear in his mind like substance.

Lu Bu read it once.

When he read the section "BMW cars and cars fill the road with fragrance", he gave up understanding this strange scroll.

Well, I can understand every word, but when I put it together, I can't imagine what the scene was like.

The Lantern Festival in later generations was just a prototype at this time, a new thing formed with the introduction of Buddhist culture.

The custom of the Lantern Festival originated during the Yongping reign of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty. In order to promote Buddhism, he ordered the act of "burning lanterns to show Buddha" in palaces and temples on the [-]th night of the first lunar month. The grand event described in the poem is still hundreds of years away from the evolution of civil society. It is normal for him not to understand the process.

Anyway, it didn't look like a dream from a god. At first, Lu Bu didn't take it seriously in his sleep. He just frowned and got up from the bed to get up for the night.

The sleeping beauty beside him was awakened by the sound of him getting up.

The afterglow of the recent past still lingered, and the little bird leaned against his thick arm, humming softly like a cat.

Lu Bu shook off the brown candy in his hand - he was a little thirsty.

In order to relieve this unreasonable boredom, he scooped up a ladle of water, first fed it little by little into the beauty's mouth, and then he held her and drank slowly.

"Your Majesty." The beauty blushed and pushed him, but she didn't move at all.

Lu Bu smiled and drank all the water - and even drank some other things.

Although it was already the moonlight above the willow trees, after the scene just now, he suddenly became interested again.

Yoshihisa
"That's pretty much it." Lu Bu lay down again contentedly, ready to go back to sleep.

But when the empty time came, I couldn't help but think of that word.

He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He actually suffered from insomnia.

Early the next morning.

"Your Majesty." Zhang Liao got up early to practice martial arts. Seeing Lu Bu's listless appearance, he took the initiative to say hello to him, "Is it possible that the beauty last night was ignorant and failed to serve your Majesty well?"

As we all know, Lu Bu has always been quiet about his treatment of his fellow soldiers in Bingzhou, and although Zhang Liao is Dong Zhuo's subordinate, he is still a warrior with a clear conscience (otherwise he would not have a close relationship with Guan Yu), and he does not agree with his current boss from the bottom of his heart.

In comparison, although Lu Fengxian was nothing, he at least had a relationship as a fellow countryman, and the other party also wanted to make friends, so he followed Lu Bu on the road this time. While monitoring, the personal relationship between the two also heated up rapidly.

"Wenyuan."

"Your Majesty, please tell me!"

Lu Bu thought for a while, but still didn't tell him about his insomnia - the dignified Marquis Du Ting, what would it be like to talk to his subordinates like this?
"It's okay," he shook his head, thinking of distracting himself by fighting, "Wen Yuan comes and practices with me."

It was just morning training. Neither side wore armor or weapons and fought with bare hands.

But despite this, Zhang Liao was also prepared for defeat.

He knew very well that he was no match for Lu Bu, or in other words, he couldn't imagine anyone in the world who could be Lu Bu's match.

Maybe Xiang Yu is resurrected?

But in this fight, Zhang Liao was keenly aware that Lu Bu had indeed had some problems.

Junhou's physical fitness is still unparalleled in the world, and his eyes are still discerning, but the feeling of invincibility is gone.

To put it simply, although it is still strong, it has reached a level that Zhang Liao can understand.

"."

Lu Bu waved his hand indifferently and stopped on his own initiative, looking a little lonely.

It was clearly midsummer, and the canopy of trees above his head was dripping with green, but a deep sadness arose inexplicably in his heart, as if countless dead leaves had piled up in a thick layer, making it difficult to control himself.

Under the interference of this distracting thought, it is difficult to maintain that clear and watery state of mind.

"Your Majesty, you should get more rest." Zhang Liao didn't think much about it. He just said that he didn't sleep well. "There is no rush to capture Xu Zimao."

"no need."

Lu Bu rejected the kindness of his fellow countrymen.

Even in modern times, there are still many people who do not take psychological problems seriously, not to mention the old father of the Lu family who has always wanted to be strong.

"Any new clues?", he asked about the business.

Maybe he was too eager to get promoted and make a fortune. Lu Bu thought that as long as he caught Xu Zimao early, all his problems would disappear in an instant.

Fame and wealth can cure all kinds of diseases.

"Yesterday a man came to my place and said that he knew the whereabouts of Xu Zimao," Zhang Liao replied, "but he would not reveal it until he saw the prince in person."

"Let him come in." Hearing this, Lu Bu cheered up, "If he dares to lie to me, it's a good time to vent his anger!"

During this period, many people in Chencang came to ask for rewards with information about catching wind and shadows. In order to catch big fish, he gave some money as a reward, so he was not surprised.

"Is your master really saying that?" When Lu Bu heard that Meng Da was willing to give his name, he believed it for the first time.

"My master has been pursuing Xu Zimao's whereabouts since Guanzhong. This matter is no nonsense. I hope you will investigate it!"

"it is good!"

At noon, Lu Bu took Meng Da's confidant and led [-] elite cavalry to the north in the sun. They marched non-stop towards Ayang County, rolling up a thick cloud of dust wherever they went. .

Three days later.

"right here?"

Lu Bu yawned while pointing at Ayang County and asking questions. He had been in a very low mood during this period, and in order to rush on the road, he completely sacrificed the quality of his sleep.

Although he didn't have any health problems with his beast-like physique, his temper became increasingly violent.

You know, tigers can't sleep well, but they will kill people.

Although Lu Bu's tone was calm, Meng Da's confidants who were leading the way felt their chests tremble and wished they could kneel down and beg for mercy on the spot.

What, why are you asking for mercy?

I can't!

Driven by the will to survive, he nodded firmly, "Ayang County, my master is talking about this place."

The implication is, if something goes wrong, don't trouble him, go to Meng Da. "Seal all the city gates," Lu Bu told Zhang Liao. "The others are following me to find people, going from house to house."

If Lu Bu still had the patience to slowly mobilize local forces to hunt him together in the simulation, now he just wants to find Xu Zimao immediately, chop him down, and then go back to Chang'an to see his wife.

He didn't know when it started, but he blamed everything on not seeing Yan for too long. This is the weight of a young couple.

The search began with the Wang family, the most powerful family in the area.

Faced with dozens of elite knights who came to search, Wang Zhan had no good solution. The family stood neatly and waited for these military masters to finish. During the search, some behavior of taking things conveniently was inevitable. The head of the Wang family could only Pretend you didn't see it - did you see the knives on their waists?

Oh, let’s not mention the knife.
"Father," Wang Yi, the daughter beside him, pulled down his sleeve and whispered, "The guy taking the lead seems to have something on his mind."

So, should I meow for him to make him look cute?
Or dance a secretary dance to relieve the awkward atmosphere?

Unexpectedly, Wang Yi's next words made the head of the Wang family look at him with admiration.

"People are most easily manipulated at this time." The girl said the scary words calmly, "Our Wang family is the commander of the county. If we sit back and ignore them and allow them to be so arrogant, I am afraid that our reputation will no longer exist. .”

The reason is very simple. Your Wang family is the largest family in Ayang County. Everyone usually supports you and supports you, but they don't want you to be a coward at critical moments and not even fart.

Mr. Wang, you have to let go of this fart!

"@#￥%"

After the father and daughter discussed quietly for a while, Wang Zhan glanced at Lu Bu, who was frowning and looking impatient, and stepped forward bravely.

"I've heard about your name for a long time, and today I get to see it." The head of the Wang family began to flatter him, "He is indeed a general of both bear and tiger, rare in the world!"

"Say something quickly." Lu Bu was not in the mood to listen to this now. "Don't waste my time."

As a local snake, few people dared to speak like this to Wang Zhan, but in front of Lu Bu, he could not show any anger at all, and looked back at his daughter.

"I'm waiting for you, I'm afraid there will be a big disaster!"

This set of opening remarks has appeared many times in "Warring States Policy", and the principle is very simple. First, state your position and say that I am thinking about you, and then use alarmist rhetoric to make the other party listen to your words.

I have to say that although it is a bit cliche, it is really useful - especially when the person you are persuading happens to have something on their mind.

"I told you, don't waste my time."

Wang Zhan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that although Lu Bu's attitude was a bit off, he really wanted to hear what he wanted to hear.

"Who knows that the ruler of tens of thousands of Bingzhou cavalry is a hero of the world?" Wang Zhan helped him beautify the well-known scandal of the seller seeking glory, and then asked: "But now he has been reduced to this We only have these dozens of people under our command, haven’t we discovered any problems yet?”

"What do you know?" Lu Bu thought that he was going to say something noble because he looked confident, so he smiled and said: "No one but a villager can know about the affairs of this temple."

A small country landowner actually gave advice to him, the Marquis of Duting?
"Why do you need to be in the temple to do this? Even ordinary people can know it at a glance." Wang Zhan looked as usual, "If you really have the trust of your master, how could you fall into such a superficial plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"

……

"You are making unreasonable assumptions about the Grand Master and alienating important officials in the imperial court." Lu Bu drank a whole glass of water expressionlessly and said slowly: "You are so bold!"

That's it!

Wang Zhan was not afraid of rejoicing. In his eyes, Lu Bu's words could probably be translated as "Go on."

"I wonder why the Lord abandoned the Bingzhou Army and came to Liangzhou with only a few personal guards?" Wang Zhan gradually became bolder. "It should be noted that this place is no better than other places. If Ma Teng gets the order, I am afraid that the Lord will think that he is a prisoner." The mantis looks like a cicada, but it doesn’t see the oriole behind it!”

"I have three hundred Bingzhou cavalry by my side. How can I go anywhere in the world?"

Hearing this, Lu Bu disagreed on his face, but he couldn't sit still - naturally it was not because he was afraid of Ma Teng, but if he stayed outside for a long time, could General Ba Jian help him take good care of the military power of the Bingzhou Army? Big question mark.

He is clearly very attached to these fellow villagers.When he is around to watch, everything is easy to say, but if you let it go for a while, if you don't keep it together, you will really think of yourself as some great person.

You can't delay it for too long, otherwise by the time they are won over, your ability to settle down will be gone.

"Hurry up," Lu Bu urged his men: "Hurry up and change to the next one."

At first, the residents of Ayang County thought that a disaster was imminent and they would be wiped out by these ruffians. Unexpectedly, under Lu Bu's strict order, these elites actually just searched them once and left.

In a sense, it can even be called a perfect evaluation!

"Jun Hou," Zhang Liao reported, "I have also searched the market. The pawnshop owner said that there was indeed a man who looked like Xu Zimao, but he ran away long ago and never appeared again. It seems that what the man said was not groundless. , do you want to stay here for a while?"

"No need." Lu Bu glanced at Zhang Liao coldly, "We will return to Luoyang now."

"Jun Hou, why is this?" Zhang Liao didn't understand what Lu Bu meant for a while, "I traveled hundreds of miles to Liangzhou and finally got a clue."

"Yes." Lu Bu got on his horse, "Liangzhou is far enough away, it's time to go back."

Looking back at Ayang County in the dusk, the unknown fire in his chest grew stronger and stronger, and he spat fiercely.

This trip is really a waste of time. Maybe the rice vat will be moved away!
Lu Bu patted his horse and left. When he passed by Meng Da's confidant, he chopped off his head with a halberd - there should be someone to vent his anger on.

The group of people came and went in a hurry, heading straight to Luoyang in the east.

August.

Boluo in the valley.

Xu Jiashu knew Lu Bu's whereabouts through simulation, and let go of his hands to start the next step of expansion.

For a month, Xu Jiashu, Lu Lingqi and Gan Ning worked in three separate directions in this uncharted valley, constantly annexing various medium-sized species.

If we compare it with the game values, the three of them are all solid second-line generals at this time. In addition, the soldiers under their command are equipped with a full set of iron weapons and a professional soldier's combat power bonus similar to the knight system. They have really begun to expand. The only complaint is that It is Huanjie who sits at the rear.

Everywhere we looked, there was a lack of people.

There is still a shortage of people for household registration and public interrogation, there is still a shortage of people for public interrogations, and there is still a shortage of people for recruitment propaganda.

In this case, Huanjie simply spread the beans into an army and sent the first batch of students graduating from the law school to various newly conquered tribes.

Take the young Ke Muzhi as an example. He is now the administrative head of a tribe with thousands of people, and he handles all affairs at once.

This was a position that he had never dared to imagine before - Hao's position was inherited from his ancestors for generations!

With Ke Muzhi's background, he originally only farmed the land and picked the remaining Qiang girls from a large family of the same species. How could he expect to one day hold the power of life and death for thousands of people.

Looking back on those days, I feel a little emotional.

Unknowingly, this place has been completely marked with Xiao Xu Langguan's mark, and he has transformed from a group of unwelcome outsiders into the ruler of nearly [-] people in the entire valley.

Looking up, the leaves are starting to turn yellow.

Autumn of the first year of Chuping came.
