When Zhang Guang was dragged away by Yan Lao, Sun Ce also took Deng Dang, Lü Meng and Lu Su, led his guards, and left Chang'an.

It is planned to go from Hanzhong to Yizhou, and then return to Yangzhou from Lingling and Guiyang.

Crossed the Qinling Mountains, went to Hanzhong, and half a month later, entered Lingling County in the south of Yizhou.

Lingling County Governor Quanling County stayed overnight and continued eastward the next day.

"Lord, Lu Meng and Lu Su are gone, and I have searched the entire Nanzheng City, but I haven't found them."

"What? Deng Dang, you are a brother-in-law, you can't stand it as a little kid. "Sun Ce is really in a hurry with these two boys.

In Chang'an City, you can toss it, but now that you are on the road, you have to toss so blindly.

"Find me, dig three feet into the ground, and find the two of them too, and see how I clean them up when the time comes."

"Sun Gongzi, can Sun Gongzi be inside?"

Outside the room, the innkeeper shouted.

Sun Ce and Deng Dang opened the door and asked what was the matter.

"Sun Gongzi, two young men asked me to hand over a letter to you." The innkeeper handed Sun Ce a strip of cloth.

strips of cloth, apparently torn from clothes.

The words are written in charcoal.

It should have been written by Lu Su, and it was quite neatly written.

"General Sun, after thinking about it again and again, Lu Meng and I didn't sleep all night last night, and in the early hours of this morning, the stars in the sky suddenly spelled out the word 'Zhang'."

"This is providence, God helped us make a choice, we chose Zhang Guang."

"General Sun doesn't need to be angry, after all, we haven't decided to follow General Sun all along."

"General Sun doesn't have to go to Chang'an City to look for us, we won't wait for you to arrest us in Chang'an City."

Sun Ce held the rotten cloth strip in his hand and was silent for a long time, but his body trembled more and more.

"General Sun, you're fine, right?" Deng Dang asked.

"Dundown, there are stars in the early hours of this morning?"

"No, the moon is so bright, how can there be stars?"

"Ah, Zhang Guang, I'm going to kill you alive!" Sun Ce frantically tore the rag strip of cloth to shreds.

After venting, Sun Ce couldn't understand why so many people wanted to stay in Chang'an, especially young people.

It is said that Zhang Ren, the first fierce general of Liu Zhang's subordinates, also stayed in Guanzhong.

"Deng Dang, lead the guards to chase west, remember not to alarm the local garrison, catch him directly, I will teach him well."

Deng Dang led the guards and chased all the way west, and by questioning passers-by, Lu Su and Lu Meng did go to the west gate of the city and accelerated their pursuit.

chased all the way, chased until dark, and did not catch up with the shadows of Lu Su and Lu Meng.

The group returned to Quanling County with fatigue and had to stay for another night.

"Alas, forget it, without Lu Su, I still have Zhou Yu, without Lu Meng, no, Lu Meng, this fart kid, is a troublemaker, stay and stay."

At this time, Sun Ce would definitely not have thought that such a master who likes to cause trouble would grow into an amazingly courageous, brave and resourceful general in the future.

After Lu Su and Lu Meng left the inn, they did not immediately go west to Yizhou.

"Lu Su, General Sun knows that if we go to assist Zhang Guang, it is very likely that he will send troops to the west to arrest us, or else? Let's find a hiding place in Lingling County for the time being, and wait until we confirm that they leave Lingling County east and then go to Guanzhong, how about it? ”

"Lu Meng, this plan is feasible, let's go, go out from the west of the city first, and mislead them."

After leaving the west gate, the two of them disguised themselves slightly, re-entered the city from the south gate, and found a small inn to live not far from the city gate.

The two stayed in the inn for three days and three nights without going out.

Three days later, I went out to inquire about the news and learned that Sun Ce and the others had left Quanling County two days ago.

The two were worried that Sun Ce still had someone left behind to wait for them in Quanling County, so they cautiously walked towards the West City Gate.

Before I arrived at the west city gate, I found that there was a commotion at the city gate.

When I got closer, it turned out that the two were arguing.

Lu Su and Lu Meng, who were already fun, stood on the side and watched the excitement.

It turned out to be a butcher who went out of the city after selling meat, and was hit by a small man at the gate of the city, and the alert butcher soon found that his money bag was missing.

The butcher grabbed the little man and searched him for the money bag.

But the little man didn't admit that he stole it, but said that the butcher robbed his money bag.

And they quarreled at the gate of the city.

The public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother said that the mother was reasonable, and the butcher was helpless, so he had to twist the little man to see the official.

This is really a helpless move, and the side that is sentenced to lose will be punished.

In particular, if the party who asks for an appearance is judged to lose, it will have to pay a lot of fines.

"Lu Su, whose money do you think it is?" Lu Meng asked.

"It's hard to say, looking at their appearance, they are all right-looking."

"What's the best way to do it?"

"Yes, yes, scare, bluff, it will be clear, but in this way, if there are still General Sun's people in the city, we don't want to go to Guanzhong."

When Lu Meng heard this, he was also worried that Sun Ce would still be in the city, and he didn't dare to meddle in things.

"Isn't that the beginning of the Liu family?"

"It's really him, you two don't have to go to see the official, Liu Ba is here."

Lu Su and Lu Meng heard the discussion and saw a young man with a delicate appearance and a slender figure coming from the city.

The boy looked a few years younger than Lu Meng.

"Butcher Li Chu has seen the son of the Liu family."

"The Cai family has seen the son of the Liu family."

Lu Meng saw that this young man had an extraordinary bearing and was respected by the people, so he asked the person next to him which son of the Liu family was this.

"Young man, out-of-tlander, huh?"

"The old man has good eyesight, we have just arrived in Lingling County." Lu Meng replied politely.

"Well, this Liu Ba is Liu Xiang's son, Liu Xiang is currently the Taishou of Jiangxia County, General Dangkou, the whole family moved to Jiangxia, and only Liu Ba stayed in Lingling."

"Why didn't he go to Jiangxia?"

"That's a question for himself."

When Lu Meng was chatting with the side, the butcher and the little servant rushed to explain what happened to Liu Ba.

"You all say this money bag is your own, don't you?" Liu Ba played with the money bag in his hand.

"That's right, it's mine, it's what I got from selling most of my meat today." Butcher Li Chu said.

"It's obviously mine, I went back to my hometown in the countryside in the past few days and brought a handful of dry goods to sell for money." The little guy argued.

"In that case, I have to have a way to tell whose money it is, but I have one condition, if I succeed in identifying whose money it is, I'll take half of it, how about it?"

"Son-in-law Liu, this is my income for most of my hard work, and my family is waiting to use it!" The butcher Li Chu was a little reluctant.

"I agree, it's obviously my money, he must say it's his, if the son of the Liu family can help, I'm willing to give half of it to you, Li Chu, don't blame me for sending you to the government at that time."

After listening to the different opinions of the butcher Li Chu and the little guy, Liu Ba smiled with deep meaning.
