Chapter 74

Besides, Cao Cao, knowing that he would not be able to fool Lv Bu and Dong Zhuo, relied on his claws to fly fast and fast, non-stop all the way, only finding remote inns or farmers' homes to rest at night.When I ran to Zhongmu, I felt tired and tired, so I hid in the woods by the side of the road to rest for a while, and when it was getting dark, I went into Zhongmu City to find something to eat and feed the horses.

When the gate of the city was about to close, Cao Cao came to the gate. Unexpectedly, he saw his wanted notice at the gate of the city.Then can I enter the city by myself?When Cao Cao was still hesitating, he only heard: "Stop, who are you, what are you doing sneaking around the gate of the city?"

Cao Cao trembled, turned his head to see the soldiers at the city gate, and hurriedly replied: "My lord, my surname is Huangfu, and I am a passing merchant. I am waiting for my companions here."

"A merchant? I have never seen a merchant like you. There is no entourage, no goods, it is clearly a fake, someone will take him down to see the county magistrate."

Cao Cao was shocked, "You have taken the wrong person. I am really a merchant passing by. I, I am a horse dealer."

"A horse dealer? Sell a horse? Bully me for not being educated?" The soldiers couldn't help but dragged Cao Cao into the city, and someone else came to lead the horse. "I don't see my lord, you won't tell me the truth."

"Don't wrong a good man, I am here to wait for my companion." Cao Cao said struggling.

"Companion? Let me ask you, who is your companion's name?"

Shouting all the way, he was dragged to the county government office, but instead of reaching the lobby, he was dragged to the middle hall.

Cao Cao stood outside the hall and looked inside. The county magistrate was receiving guests in the middle hall. "My lord, this man sneaking around the gate of the city is not like a good man..." said the soldier, "He also has a horse, which is not an ordinary horse at first glance, and it is not something that ordinary merchants can have."

"My lord, my surname is Huangfu. I'm a merchant passing through the local area. For some reason, I was arrested."

Hearing Cao Cao shouting loudly, the county magistrate came down from the hall and looked at Cao Cao carefully.After walking back and forth for a few steps, the county magistrate suddenly stopped, looked at Cao Cao and said, "I know you, I also went to Luoyang to study..."

"My lord is wrong. My surname is Huangfu, and I am a passing merchant." Cao Cao argued.

"Oh, I haven't told you who you are yet, how do you know I've made a mistake? You clearly have a ghost in your heart." The county magistrate is very cunning.

"This... because the villain has never been to Luoyang, how could the adults recognize me."

"Hehehe, you know it as soon as you recognize it." The county magistrate laughed and went back to the hall, asking the guest: "General Zhou came from Luoyang, he must have seen this person, can you deny his recognition?"

The man didn't look at Cao Cao and smiled slightly. "My lord, dare to ask, so what if you recognize it, so what if you don't recognize it? How can we know about the chaos in Beijing now. As the saying goes, one thing more is worse than one thing less, and one thing less is worse than nothing. If it is that person, how to send it to him?" Going to Beijing? If there is a mistake on the way, then the crime is the adult's. If the adult has never seen this person, who will say that the adult is wrong."

The county magistrate was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud after a while, waved to the soldiers and said: "It's such a trivial matter, what are you looking for me for, don't you see that I'm meeting guests, why don't you coax them out."

Cao Cao was arrested and released in a muddleheaded way. He vaguely felt that the voice he heard in the county government today was a little familiar, but he couldn't hear it clearly because he was too far away.The ups and downs of the past two days, with a sword hanging over his head all the time, Cao Cao's little heart is really strong.After finding an inn, Cao Cao fed his horse, filled his stomach casually, and lay down to rest when he heard someone knocking on the door. "Brother Huangfu, are you asleep?"

Cao Cao shivered, his pores exploded, and he lost all sleepiness.He grabbed the candlestick on the table, leaned against the door, and listened intently without saying a word.

"Brother Huangfu, if you don't open the door again, I'm going to call for someone." Cao Cao lit a candle, opened the door and looked at the person, "Ah, why is it you?"

It was none other than Zhou Cang who came.

Cao Cao looked around and saw that no one was there, so he let Zhou Cang into the house. "Why is Wei here?"

"I left Luoyang in such a hurry that I didn't have time to say goodbye, so please invite Brother Cao Haihan." Zhou Cang said with a smile: "I am originally physically strong, but I didn't expect to suddenly fall ill when I passed by this county. The illness came and went like a convulsion Si. The illness lasted for three months, and thanks to the care of the county magistrate, I went to the county government office today to bid farewell and return to Xuzhou, but it was a coincidence to meet Brother Cao at the county government office.”

"It turns out that Wei Guo is in the county office today, no wonder it sounds familiar."

"It's the little brother, Dong Zhuo's wanted documents and sent to various places, how dare Brother Cao enter the city?"

"I'm ashamed, it's not because I'm hungry and thirsty, and I'm lucky." Cao Cao cupped his hands, "If it wasn't for defending the country today, it would be almost in a panic. If it wasn't for the fast horse, it would be difficult to escape."

Zhou Cang was proud, that is!I prepared this for you, but I just took precautions, but I still didn't escape my fate. "I don't know what happened after I left Luoyang?"

Cao Cao told Zhou Cang about the recent events, but omitted Wang Yun, only saying that it was his own behavior.

Zhou Cang pondered for a while, and decided not to advise Cao Cao. After all, Cao Cao is very conceited. It is okay to discuss issues, give suggestions and opinions, but it is better to be careful when criticizing. "Since that's the case, what is Brother Cao's plan?"

"Now that Dong Zhuo wants me, there is no way to escape, no way to run, I plan to go back to my hometown to recruit soldiers and buy horses, and then I will date all states and pastors in the world to attack Dong Zhuo."

"In that case, I would like to escort Brother Cao back to his hometown." Zhou Cang said.

"Thank you, brother, for your kindness." Cao Cao thanked Zhou Cang from the bottom of his heart. This is another bodyguard. "I know that my virtuous brother has extraordinary martial arts and outstanding strategies, can you tell me a good strategy?"

"Little brother, I don't think there is any clever strategy. However, I think it is better to ask oneself than to ask others. With Brother Cao's talents, you don't need to be dependent on others. Even if you form an alliance with others, you should not be controlled by others." Zhou Cang paused. "The Yuan family has four generations and three princes. There are many people who belong to the world, but many of them are attracted to fame. They cannot compete with them for a while. Brother Cao still needs to be patient for the time being. He only needs to recruit soldiers and horses. The talent of helping the world and the country, and the brothers are at odds. As the saying goes, Lu Yao knows the horsepower and sees people's hearts for a long time. His true form is revealed. "

Cao Cao listened carefully, and chewed every sentence repeatedly: You don't need to be dependent on others, and you can't be controlled by others;Lu Yao knows that horsepower can see people's hearts for a long time, and gold and jade are out of the way, but the more you listen to it, the more useful it will be.

"Why doesn't Wei Guo help me?" Cao Cao said sincerely.

"Brother Cao praised me. However, I am deeply grateful to Master Tao Qian for his kindness. I dare not forget each other, and I cannot bear to leave him." Zhou Cang said against his will. He was not worried that he would have no future under Cao Cao, but that he was worried about himself. Turning into Yang Xiu, one day Cao Ah would be unhappy, and he would cut himself off. He wanted to be like Guo Jia, but unfortunately he was too short-lived.I can only weave a magnificent reason to show my height and win Cao Cao's approval. "Brother Cao also knows that my younger brother is resettling refugees and farming in Xuzhou. If my younger brother goes away, I'm afraid that all previous efforts will be wasted and the people will be displaced again."

Cao Cao nodded, "We defend the country with high righteousness."

"However, if brother Cao is sent out, it is my duty to do my best, and I will do my best. When my elder brother calls, my younger brother will obey even though he is thousands of miles away."

Cao Cao, who was moved by his words, burst into tears.The two talked for a long time, and Zhou Cang left.
