Chapter 137
No matter how many vicissitudes you have experienced, how many cruel betrayals you have seen, how indifferent and strong you are.

There must be a name, or a face deep in memory.

It is not easy to touch, but once you think of it, you can dream back to the boy.

"Why don't you say anything when I'm talking to you?" Seeing Cao Cao staring at her in a daze, the woman became more and more annoyed.

Cao Cao came back to his senses, and smiled slightly, his not-so-beautiful face was like a spring breeze, just like his youth.

The smile was reflected in her eyes, and the woman felt suspicious: "Could it be that this person is an old acquaintance?"

But looking closely, there is no impression.

Cao Cao lowered his head, and when he looked up again, there was one less figure that once overlapped.

Sighing slightly, although that Wenhua's splendid temperament is very similar, she is not her after all.

I remember that when Zhao Ji was redeemed back then, she was also at the age of the young woman in front of her.

But the hardening of wind and frost, the torment of her heart, had already engraved the pain deeply in her life.

Cao Cao never forgot that on the day she came back from thousands of miles away, the carriage stopped, and a familiar yet unfamiliar face leaned out somewhat anxiously and eagerly, and swept around in a daze, and also passed his face, but immediately As if realizing something, he quickly turned his gaze back.

In the crowd of people, two people who had been apart for more than ten years looked at each other quietly, and then smiled.

Cao Cao has never seen such a bright and sad smile, which is soul-stirring and soul-stirring.

That is the rare beauty that a woman who has trekked through the real hell but has not been conquered by hell can penetrate time and people's hearts.

Looking at the young woman in front of her again, her body is light and melancholy, and her appearance is fair and delicate. Seriously speaking, she is somewhat similar to Zhaoji when she was widowed.

The general feelings are lonely, and the general depression.

Thinking about it now, Zhao Ji at that time would never have imagined that the real sea of ​​suffering in the world is boundless and bottomless.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao's heart ached, and there was an imperceptible tenderness in his eyes.

He took a deep breath, looked into the other's eyes frankly: "I'm Wu Zhi, I would like to ask for the name of my wife."

The young woman couldn't help opening her eyes wide, as if she was surprised at the other party's rudeness, but when she looked seriously, there was no evil in the other party's eyes and face?

There is only a touch of concern for unknown reasons, and a touch of hidden deep regret.

This extremely delicate emotion, if it weren't for a woman like her who is extremely delicate, it would be difficult for anyone else to see it.

"Concubine Li Qingzhao...is Zhao Mingcheng's wife."

Perhaps touched by Na Mo's concern, the young woman said her name by accident, but then she was startled and lost her composure, and hurriedly added another sentence, revealing her identity as a married woman.

Cao Cao raised his face and smiled. This smile was no longer pure and warm as before, but it had an unspeakable domineering air.

"Wu has remembered. If there are any difficulties in the future, send someone to the Erlongshan branch to make a statement. When the sky falls and the earth falls, Wu will take care of it for you."

Cao Cao threw out a hard promise without thinking, and Cao Cao turned and left.

Ou Peng and Luan Tingyu drove Li Qingzhao's carriage and headed out.

Li Qingzhao subconsciously followed to the door, frowning and looking at the back in front of her. She only felt that the other person was weird, but with a natural look at him. She had never seen such a person in the first half of her life.

Cao Cao didn't think much about it. In his opinion, such a beautiful woman should never be ruined by the world.It is a pity that she failed to protect Cai Zhaoji in the previous life, but in this life, if this woman asks for him, she will take care of her and protect her.

Luan Tingyu looked back a few times in a ghostly manner, thinking that what her brother did today is very extraordinary, yes, maybe this woman is older and did not meet her brother's wishes.

A few people bought some quilts from the doctor, padded them thickly in the carriage, carefully carried Ma Lin inside, came to the door, waited for Chao Gai and others to gather, and left Qingzhou City with drums and gongs. The surrendered army returned to Erlong Mountain.

In the evening, the heroes gathered in the Daxiong Palace, their expressions were quite excited, Wu Yong said with a smile: "Today's harvest is very rich! It's enough to hang around for a long time, and I ask my brother to show me how to do things now."

Cao Cao calmed down, pondered for a moment, and said, "King Chao Tian is the owner of Liangshan Park. He can't leave for a long time, so he brought his troops back to the mountain. He also stayed with two brothers, Lin Chong and Hua Rong, and led 1000 people to help him. He and Qin Ming's 2000 people were stationed here. In Erlong Mountain, counting more than a thousand officers and soldiers captured in Qingzhou, as well as Erlong Mountain and Taohua Mountain, there are 6000 people, which is more than enough to attack the state capital."

Chao Gai nodded and said: "In that case, I will go back first and use it at any time, and then bring people and horses to help."

Cao Cao thanked him with his fists clasped, and said, "Zongze is the only one who can't be measured now. Just happened to take Sun Li, and his city was already half empty, so he invited Teacher Luan, Shi Xiu, Mu Hong, and Niu Gao to accompany him. Once I went to Dengzhou, I met Zong Tongpan for a while. The four brothers Qin Ming, Deng Fei, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun led 1000 people to hide troops outside the city. If there is a chance, take him to Dengzhou. Then advance from east to west, and there will be no worries.”

Everyone listened and took their orders, suddenly Zhou Tong got up and said: "Brother, younger brother, I spent a few years hanging around in Dengzhou in the past, and I am familiar with the roads and geography. If you don't mind, younger brother will also go for a walk."

Cao Cao said: "It couldn't be better."

Early the next morning, Chao Gai led Tang Bin, Liu Tang, Kong Ming, and Kong Liang, distributed part of the money and food, and led soldiers and horses to return, and the rest of the troops were placed on Erlong Mountain.Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Hu Yanzhuo, etc. were all officers and soldiers, and they knew the military law well. They broke up the captured officers and soldiers and organized them into teams. They practiced every day without mentioning it.

As for Sun Li, he was recognized by Luan Tingyu as his younger brother, and after some persuasion, he still refused to surrender, and it was not easy to kill him, so he was temporarily detained on the mountain. From Luan Tingyu's point of view, he was not restricted to move around, and he was training soldiers on weekdays He is allowed to watch the performance of martial arts.

Sun Li was also obedient. Seeing the clouds of masters at Erlong Mountain, he couldn't think of running away, so he could only muddle along.

Cao Cao took Luan Tingyu and other five to go first, Qin Ming four led a thousand troops and divided them into dozens of teams. Afterwards, Xiaoxing stayed overnight and only walked along the seashore.

Dengzhou has jurisdiction over four counties including Penglai, Huangxian, Mouping, and Wendeng. The prefectural government is located in Penglai County. On the first day of October, Cao Cao and his party were about to arrive in Penglai. Suddenly there was a hill on the side of the road, covering a vast area, covered with yellow leaves. , and its height also has a 200 meters.

Cao Cao's heart moved, he pointed and said: "If a thousand soldiers and horses are hidden here, gods and ghosts will not know, and it is not far from the county."

Zhou Tong looked at it once, and explained: "Brother, this place is called Dengyun Mountain. It's only about twenty miles away from the county town. It really is a place for Tibetan soldiers."

Cao Cao said, "Go in and have a look."

The six of them rode their horses into the woods for a while, but Niu Gao's eyes were sharp, and he suddenly raised his mace and pointed at a place, saying: "There is someone spying on me, wait until the younger brother brings him."

He was about to rush over to grab the man, when he suddenly heard the sound of a gong, and eighty or ninety men ran out from behind the mountain one after another, each holding a large wooden shield in his hand, and some single swords and hatchets in the other. They surrounded Cao Cao and the others, with square shields next to each other, as if a low wall had been erected on the ground.

Niu Gao laughed and said: "What's the use? If you don't pick up the spear, you just need to charge the horse, and they will all be scattered."

Shi Xiu looked around and shouted loudly: "You bastards, don't go forward to die, just ask your leaders to come out and speak."

When the voice fell, someone in the woods responded: "What a breath! One, two, three, four, five, six, hehe, six birdmen, dare to come and beat me to climb Yunshan? Where is the goddess bow? Hidden head and tail, What kind of hero is she!"

Cao Cao and others laughed when they heard this, but the person who spoke only heard his voice, but did not see him, but said that he was hiding his head and showing his tail.

Probably after hearing the laughter, someone looked behind a big tree for a while, tentatively stood up, bowed his waist, lowered his head, depending on the situation, he could retract at any time, and shouted: "Grandpa has come out!" ! Where’s the Goddess Bow?”

Cao Cao knew that there must be a misunderstanding when he heard this, and said with a smile: "I don't know Lu Shengong, I am a visitor from afar, and I love the beautiful autumn scenery of this mountain, so come in and take a closer look."

Hearing this, the man breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his waist, he was not small, but he was born with small eyes, and shouted: "Nephew, come out, you are not with that goddess bow."

Immediately after that tree came out another man, holding a hatchet in his hand, he was also quite tall, with a flat nose and mung bean eyes, and a big sarcoma on the back of his head, which seemed to have a single horn, his description was very strange.

The two laughed and said: "We haven't opened for several days, but today we have food and clothing delivered to our eyes." The big man walked three feet in front of Cao Cao and the others, and the one with the thin eyebrows tilted his head and said loudly: "Hey! I opened the bird road , The bird tree was planted by me, you can live from now on, and leave a pen to buy road money!"

Shi Xiu chuckled, clasped his fists and said, "So he is a hero in the green forest, please ask for his name!"

The small-eyed person sneered again and again: "Want to build a relationship? Talk about friendship? It's useless! To tell you the truth, grandpa has not lost a penny in the past few days, and he has never opened a business. Today, even my own father wants to live, so I have to stay." money."

After hearing this, Shi Xiu said: "Forget it, since he refuses to report by name, it's the rules of the world, let's see the truth."

As he said that, he jumped off the horse and took the simple knife in his hand.

Seeing this, Niu Gao hurriedly shouted: "Brother, you have made too many contributions, let me fight this battle." Quickly climbed off the horse, holding two maces, he shouted: "Hey! The master is a black man who is famous all over the world. Fenghu Niugao, since you hide your head and show your tail, you have no choice but to be the wronged soul of the master's mace and suffer death."

After saying that, he took a big step up, waved his mace and smashed it.

Seeing that he was coming fiercely, the thin-browed man hurriedly twitched his waist, unexpectedly pulled out a stick, jumped to the side, dodged the mace, swung the stick and swept across.

When Niu Gao saw that his stick was not happy, he didn't panic, he erected his iron mace to block it, but made a mistake, when the stick hit the mace, it snapped, bang!Still hitting Niu Gao's back, he fell two or three steps forward and almost fell down.

This came suddenly, and Cao Cao and the others all said "Hey".

The opponent, however, was in control and relentless, with a stick in his hand, he hit it vertically, drew it obliquely, and swept it horizontally, Niu Gao's two maces couldn't stop him, and the blow made a loud noise.

After all, it was Luan Tingyu who was well-informed, recognized it for a while, and shouted: "His instrument is called a bent-back flying tiger stick. It is made by making thin vines tightly wrapped around a stick, soaked in oil, then exposed to the sun, and repeated for several years. The softest is the hardest, and the hardest is the most difficult to guard against. You can only be safe if you block his stick."

After he finished his long talk, Niu Gao was beaten seven or eight more times.

Fortunately, he was wearing armor and his skin was thick, so he was not injured, but was beaten like a gong and drum. He felt ashamed and said angrily: "You just say the last sentence, and I will save a few times. Who would know that he is a painful stick?" , itching stick."

After finishing speaking, the iron mace hit the end of the stick, and the stick bounced back as expected.

When Niu Gao saw it was effective, he couldn't help being overjoyed, and shouted: "See what other tricks you have." The iron mace went straight up and down.

That big fellow's stick technique is only mediocre, and he relies on the strange weapon in his hand to fight fiercely. Now that Niu Gao knows the key, he is no match, shouting "Hold on, I have something to say!" and jumped out of the battle group .

Pointing to Luan Tingyu, he said: "You have a lot of knowledge and knowledge. My bent-backed flying tiger stick is rarely known in the Jianghu. It's hard for you to know. It must not be an ordinary person. Why don't you leave a name?"

Mu Hong laughed at him and said, "What's the use of not leaving a name? Anyway, I will snatch him when my father comes."

The big man raised his eyebrows, and said righteously: "Your Excellency's words don't make sense, and my own father doesn't know the origin of my weapon, how can I generalize it."

Seeing this guy messing around, Zhou Tong immediately lifted his spirits, and said seriously: "Fart, your stick is sometimes soft and sometimes hard, it must be a family tradition. If your father didn't have one, how could you be born?"

Hearing this, the big man took a deep breath, showed a heroic expression of pity for a hero, and solemnly clasped his fists and said: "A good man has extraordinary words, so he should also leave a name."

Zhou Tong said triumphantly: "I am the handsome gentleman of Taohua Mountain in Qingzhou, Zhou Tong who is known as the 'little bully' by people in the world!"

The big man shook his head: "What bird's name, I've never heard of it."

Zhou Tong was furious, but he knew that this man was deliberately teasing him, and was about to retort, but Luan Tingyu was too lazy to talk nonsense, and clasped his fists and said, "I'm the 'iron stick' Luan Tingyu, have you heard of it?"

The big man was slightly startled and said: "Unexpectedly, brother Luan Tingyu was in front of him, my younger brother must have offended me. Legend has it that Brother Luan followed Yanggu Wu Mengde, didn't he? How did you get here?"

Luan Tingyu raised his hand and said: "Here, isn't this my elder brother, 'Wu Mengde' the master of the Wu family!"

The big man was even more surprised, looked at Cao Cao and said, "Ah, is your honor really Brother Wu Zhiwu?"

Cao Cao said with a smile: "It's not some extravagant figure. Is there anyone else who can't pretend? I am Wu Zhi."

When the big man heard this, he exclaimed: "My lord!" Throwing the stick, he pushed the gold mountain and turned the jade pillar down, prostrated himself, put his hands on top of his head and said, "I'm ignorant, I offended brother Huwei, brother Wanwang forgive me."

The man with the tumor on his head was startled when he heard that, he quickly stepped forward, knelt down beside his companion, and said, "I didn't mean to offend, if I knew that Brother Wu was coming, my uncle and I would go to the border of Dengzhou and wait. Only sincerity can be seen."

Cao Cao got off his horse, helped them up and said, "Those who don't know are innocent. Can you tell me the names of the two heroes?"

The two said with shy eyebrows and drooping eyes: "Brother, don't make fun of me. We are uncles and nephews. Because of the similar age, we have been hanging out together since we were young. The villain Zou Yuan has been here in this forest since he knew it. I was begging for food and clothing, and people called me 'Chu Lin Long', this is my nephew Zou Run, because of this tumor, people called him 'One-horned Dragon'."

Cao Cao said: "You are locals, that would be great. To tell you the truth, I have a matter to ask for help..."

He hadn't had time to talk about the loan of the Tibetan soldiers when suddenly a crisp voice said: "Ah, you made a shield to deal with me! Hey, you even found a new helper! Hmph, I thought this would scare me away." Me?
There are different teachings: Zou Yuan and Zou Run are called Ssangyong, and the big ax is a mad tiger and a stick hero.The man hides with a wooden shield, while the daughter rides a horse and draws a bow.

 Let's write from another angle. It was true that the progress was too fast before, and I also felt that there was a problem.
