Cao Thief

Chapter 68 Go Home (22)
Wei Yan's idea is actually very simple.

He hoped that Cao Peng could defect to Cao Cao with him, so that they could support each other in the future.What happened to Xia Houlan also made Wei Yan feel sad.In any case, he was born in Baima Yicong, one of the elites in the world.

Xia Houlan's martial arts is actually not too bad.

Although he is still inferior to Wei Yan, if he has a good background, he will be reused everywhere.

But he was a mess, first he was punished by Gongsun Zan, and later he was under Xiahou Dun's tent, and he was just an ordinary military lord, so he was useless at all.

Wei Yan began to be grateful to Cao Peng. If there was no Cao Peng, he would go to Cao Cao with his head covered, wouldn't he be the same as Xia Houlan?
If Cao Peng also defected to Cao Cao, no matter how bad it is, there can be someone to discuss it with, right?It's better than him alone, fighting alone over there.

Cao Peng woke up again, it was already dark.

The bruise on the back has been reduced by half.At least wearing armor is not a problem. Although he can't exercise vigorously, he can ride on horseback.

Dian Wei told Cao Peng what they thought.

Naturally, Cao Peng would not object...

He is also thinking about how to get home.Now Dian Wei and the others are willing to walk with him, and they can take care of each other on the road, at least to ensure his safety.Therefore, Cao Peng almost didn't think about it, so he agreed.Of course, apart from the consideration of his own safety, Cao Peng had another idea.He doesn't know what's going on at home now, if, just if...

Of course, if all goes well, then everyone is happy.

But if something happens, having one more person by your side will naturally give you more protection.

——————————————————————————————————

That night, Cao Peng and others set off.

Although Dawanggang is far away from Wancheng, it is still under the jurisdiction of Wancheng.God knows when, what will happen?
So, taking advantage of the darkness, the four embarked on a tortuous escape road.

For Cao Peng, it is also the way home...

As Wei Yan said, the road to the west is not difficult.

At this time, all Zhang Xiu's attention was focused on the coast of Yushui, and he had never paid attention to his own backyard at all.Along the way, I haven't encountered any major troubles.Wei Yan also came up with an idea, that is to find a way to change into the armor of Wancheng Army.This is not too troublesome. When passing through a small town, Wei Yan and Xia Houlan sneaked into the local government office and stole a few sets of armor from the treasury.However, these armors seem to be a bit heavy for Cao Peng!Fortunately, he was fine, otherwise it would be another troublesome matter.

In the cattle and horse market in Liguo County, Xia Houlan came forward and bought two bad horses.

With four people and four horses, almost all the way was unimpeded, and they arrived at Turbulent Water.On the way, although they encountered some soldiers and horses, they were all prevaricated by Wei Yan.It is difficult for people to have any doubts about them with the extremely wandering local dialect of Nanyang County.Changed direction in Tuanshui, walked for another whole day, and arrived in Rang County.

For safety reasons, Cao Peng and others did not enter the city.

Detour directly from the outside of Rang County and head towards Anzhong.

After passing Rang County, in fact, it is equivalent to leaving the scope of Zhang Xiu's rule.But there is another trouble, that is, the armor and the horse, which must be replaced.

The two Xiliang horses both bear the logo of the Wancheng Army, so it is easy for others to see their flaws.

Even if Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao were allies, suddenly a few Wancheng troops armed with swords and guns appeared under Liu Biao's rule, which would also cause conflicts.

Therefore, Cao Peng suggested to sell the Xiliang horse!
At the junction of Rang County and Anzhong, there is a chariot market.

Wei Yan came forward and exchanged two Xiliang horses for 180 five baht coins.Originally, buying and selling war horses privately was a forbidden thing.However, due to the lack of horses in Jingzhou, Liu Biao turned a blind eye to the sale of horses.Chema City at the junction of Rang County and Anzhong is itself a black market that Liu Biao tacitly accepts.Here, you have the goods and I have the money, as for the provenance of the goods, who cares?Among the commercial shops that can gain a firm foothold in this black market, which one is not backed by the Jingxiang family?
Afterwards, Wei Yan spent another [-] pennies to buy a car in the car and horse market.

The car is a good car, very well made.

Putting on two rough horses, the four of them changed their clothes again.So Cao Peng transformed into the gorgeously dressed Mr. Huang of Jiangxia.

Wei Yan became a coachman and changed his name to Huang Bushe.

Dian Wei became a bodyguard, called Wei Dian.

Xia Houlan was handsome in appearance, and after changing her clothes, she became gentle and gentle, so she became the accountant of Jiangxia Huang's family, named Huang Lan.

In short, when the four people entered Anzhong County, they all changed their appearance.

"Ah Fu, your idea is really good."

Wei Yan drove the carriage with a smile on his face.

As for Dian Wei, sitting next to Wei Yan, he also looked relaxed.

Only Xia Houlan was a little unhappy.Because Cao Peng picked up a few strands of his hair and stuck them to his mouth, walking all the way was very uncomfortable.

He even felt that Cao Peng did it on purpose to avenge himself for hurting him.

But he had to admit that sitting there with a beard glued to his mouth and a white robe, he really looked like an accountant.

Zhanger's silver spear, Longque Broadsword, and Dianwei's pair of iron halberds were all placed in the carriage.

Cao Peng sat in the carriage, looking like a nobleman.But most of the time, he was walking in contact with Twelve Brocades, in order to recover as soon as possible.

"Brother Wei, we have passed Anzhong now, how should we go?"

Wei Yan raised his whip and slapped it in the air.

"Let's rest at the foot of Xinghua Mountain tonight. We will go north early tomorrow morning. By noon, we can bypass Nieyang County and gather in the south."

For some reason, Cao Peng's heart trembled for no reason.

After passing the south, you will gather together, which is Jiyang...

————————————————————————

Xinghua Mountain is located in Shiwuli, Nieyang County.

There is a saying in the local area that "Apricot Blossom Mountain is raised, and Lanxi River is Zhuozui".The Xinghua Mountain and the Lanxi River are the two major landscapes of Nieyang.Xinghua Mountain has strange peaks and dangerous cliffs, towering and handsome, and because of the clouds and air, it is unpredictable; the Lanxi River is full of fun.

Under a round of bright moon, Lanxi water surrounds Xinghua Mountain, and the mountains and rivers complement each other and complement each other.

Cao Peng stopped by the water of Lanxi, silently watching the turbulence of the stream.

Standing here, you can overlook the ancient city of Nieyang. In Cao Peng's mind, a beautiful face that seemed to be smiling and angry appeared.

His eyes were a little bewildered, and his thoughts turned back and forth.He knew that this matter had nothing to do with her, but everything seemed to be caused by her.

Sighing forcefully, Cao Peng rubbed his face.

Behind him, a bonfire blazed.

Both Wei Yan and Xia Houlan were already asleep.

Dian Wei sat by the campfire, dazed in a daze.

Cao Peng walked over, sat down beside him, stared at the bonfire, in a daze...

"Ah Fu, is there something on your mind?"

"kindness!"

"...Are you worried about your parents?"

Cao Peng raised his head and saw Dian Wei's big black face.At this time, the fierce and fierce face appeared on the chest, with a touch of concern.

"Brother Dian, you better stop laughing!"

"why?"

"Didn't anyone tell you that you look uglier when you smile?"

The smile on Dian Wei's face suddenly froze.

The past few days of walking together, all the way, made him love Cao Peng even more.

This is a kind of love without any entanglement of interests, and it is a kind of love that the elders have for the younger generation.

And what about Cao Peng?When talking with Dian Wei, he didn't have too many scruples.This is a very down-to-earth person and very simple.Talking with him is even more relaxing than when you are with Wei Yan.Sometimes, Cao Peng would still stab Dian Wei, but Dian Wei never got angry.

"I'm an unfilial son!"

"Why do you say that?"

"My mother gave birth to me, and my father raised me... I have nothing to repay my parents, but I always cause trouble for them. When I was young, my health was not good, and my mother sold my ancestral hairpin in order to ask for talisman water. Unexpectedly , but was framed by someone... In a fit of anger, I killed that person, and as a result, my father and mother were forced to leave their homes, far away from their homeland. I thought I could repay them well after settling down, but I didn't want to..."

Cao Peng took a deep breath, with a pained look on his face.

In the previous life, his parents were implicated because of him; in this life, it is still like this!
The closer he was to Jiyang, the more painful it was for Cao Peng.

He thought of Deng Ji, and Wang Mai... He really didn't know how to face his sister and Wang Meng after returning home?

Dian Wei looked at Cao Peng quietly, and said in a deep voice after a long time, "Ah Fu, if I were your parents, I would be proud of you."

"Ok?"

"I also have a son, and that guy never makes me worry. Sometimes I am so angry with him, I really want to slap him to death... But he is my son, and when he was not born, his body was flowing My blood. Whenever he does something, although I scold him on my lips, I am very happy in my heart. I don't know your parents, and when I know, they won't blame you. "

"is it?"

"certainly……"

"Then if there is a chance in the future, I really want to get to know you, the guy who wants to slap you to death."

Dian Wei was startled, and couldn't help laughing.

"His name is Dianman. In the future, you will definitely have a chance to meet him."

Dian Wei said, looking up at the starry sky.

I don’t know, what’s going on here now?
——————————————————————————————————

Nothing happened overnight, and the four of them set off on their way home again early the next morning.

The battle situation in Wancheng has been reported here.When Dian Wei learned that Cao Cao had withdrawn from Nanyang County the day before, he couldn't help but pay more attention to Cao Peng.Including Xia Houlan, they were also secretly shocked that Cao Peng's previous analysis was not wrong.

Following Cao Cao's defeat in Wancheng, wealthy families from all over Nanyang began to oppose Cao Cao.

These forces were nothing before.But when Zhang Xiu won a big victory and Cao Cao retreated to Wuyin after a disastrous defeat, it became extremely huge.

Xia Houlan looked at Cao Peng with a look of reverence.

On the contrary, it was Cao Peng, who looked the same as usual, still very calm...

"Ah Fu, Nan is in front of us!"

Wei Yan stopped the carriage suddenly, turned his head and said to Cao Peng in the carriage.

"Then let's go."

Wei Yan looked solemn, and said softly: "At the ferry, there seems to be a villager setting up a card! Everyone who comes and goes seems to be subject to interrogation."

When Cao Peng heard this, he couldn't help but startled.

Nanjiju has never set up a checkpoint. When was this checkpoint established?
He quickly got out of the car, stood on the car and looked up.When I saw the south, I gathered at the ferry, and pedestrians lined up.Divided into two groups, they will be interrogated by Xiangyong in the past.

When I went to Anzhong before, I didn't encounter this kind of situation.

Didn't it mean that Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu have re-allocated?Then why was this level set up?

Just when Cao Peng was wondering, a team of patrolling Xiangyong passed by the carriage.A Xiangyong unintentionally glanced at the carriage, and when he saw Cao Peng, he was stunned for a moment.Immediately he walked up to the corporal leader and whispered a few words, the corporal leader waved his hand impatiently, Xiang Yong immediately broke away from the team and got into the sparse forest beside him.

When the patrolling Xiangyong was far away and Cao Peng was about to get into the carriage, Xiangyong suddenly ran out from the sparse forest.

I saw him striding like a star, and in the blink of an eye, he came to the carriage, and shouted: "Ah Fu, why did you come? My parents asked me to stay here, waiting for you for a long time!"

When Cao Peng first heard someone calling his name, he couldn't help but shudder, turned around quickly, and looked at Xiang Yong...
