At the beginning, Cao Bao was caught by Mi Zhu and thought he would die, but when the pottery merchant visited him, he wrote the word "Ping" in the palm of his hand, and then Cao Bao knew that the reason why they were able to survive was all the clever arrangement of Ping Gongzi.

Although Cao Bao had never seen Liu Ping, at this time, he saw that Zhang Liao and other generals were standing next to a young man, and he understood with his toes that it was the famous Ping Gongzi.

Liu Ping glanced at Cao Bao and said with a faint smile: "What's the situation in the city?" ”

Cao Bao hurriedly bowed down and said: "Yu Gongzi, the last general has handed over most of the soldiers and horses to the command of General Taishi, at this time, General Taishi and General Xu are killing all sides in the city, and it will be clear in another hour or two." ”

"In that case, let's wait for them here."

This is the first time Liu Ping has seen Cao Bao, so naturally he doesn't dare to believe Cao Bao's words easily, he still waits here for a safer time.

After all, Zhang Liao, the only guard by his side, was still injured, and Lu Qi and Zhou Cang didn't know what the situation was now......

……

Lu Qi and Zhou Cang were hiding in an inconspicuous courtyard in the south of the city at this time.

Behind the courtyard are several adobe houses, and in front is a small blacksmith's shop.

The owners of this small courtyard are a father and daughter, and the father is usually responsible for iron-making and the daughter is responsible for bookkeeping, barely making ends meet.

Since Lu Qi and Zhou Cang were recognized by Zhang Fei on the street and escaped from the encirclement, they secretly climbed over the wall into this small courtyard.

However, as soon as they came in, they were found by their daughter who was washing clothes, and the girl thought they were robbers and was about to call for help, so Lu Qi simply knocked the girl unconscious.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Cang went to the blacksmith shop in front of him to knock his father unconscious, and closed the small door of the shop.

Originally, according to Zhou Cang's intentions, he directly killed the father and daughter to save trouble, but Lu Qi disagreed, and only asked Zhou Cang to tie them up.

After tying up, they changed into the clothes of the father and daughter, and pretended to be the blacksmith father and daughter.

Anyway, since Zhang Fei started searching in the south of the city, no one in the ordinary people dared to go out, and they didn't have to worry about being recognized by other neighbors or customers.

The only people who really know Lu Qi and Zhou Cang are Zhang Fei himself and a few personal soldiers, and they want to carefully investigate the people in the south of Xuzhou, and they can't finish the investigation in three or five days.

However, they also knew in their hearts that if Zhang Fei continued to investigate one by one, they would soon be able to find out here one day.

And with Zhang Fei's force, the two of them together are not opponents, not to mention that Zhang Fei still has so many soldiers by his side, and they will be in a catastrophe at that time.

In the afternoon, the warm sun makes people drowsy.

There was a stone table in the small courtyard, Lu Qi turned over the cabinet and turned out the tea bricks from the middle-aged blacksmith, she boiled the tea with great interest, and then sat quietly in front of the stone table, enjoying the quiet last time.

Lu Qi felt that since this was the end of his life, why should he not be able to get along with himself?

Now what she is most pleased with is that after her identity was exposed, she did not lead the enemy to the direction of the master, but led Zhang Fei to the south of the city.

When they die, the future master will know about it, and he will definitely understand her painstaking efforts.

In fact, Lu Qi didn't know now that her decision inadvertently transferred Zhang Fei away, thus saving Liu Ping's plan.

Imagine, if Zhang Fei was not chained here, after Guan Yu retreated, Guan Zhang's second general would guard the north gate at the same time, even if Tai Shici and Xu Huang joined forces, it would be impossible to attack the city.

"Yuanfu, you go and invite the father and daughter out, we are all going to die, there is no need to kill more," Lu Qi held his good-looking face with both hands, and said suddenly in a somewhat ethereal tone.

"I really don't understand, I'm going to die, what are you still thinking about so much?" Zhou Cang smiled bitterly.

However, he did not object to Lu Qi, he still entered the house, one by one, and took out the pair of father and daughter who were bundled like zongzi, and pressed them in front of the stone table.

The father and daughter had sackcloth in their mouths, and their faces were full of horror.

Bandits suddenly came into the house, and it was very likely that they would kill them, so of course they would be afraid.

However, this male robber is vicious, but the female robber is so good-looking, they can't help but be surprised.

"As long as you don't shout or scream, I'll take out the linen cloth from your mouth," Lu Qi stared at the father and daughter, and said lightly.

The father and daughter nodded in unison, and it was uncomfortable to have something stuffed in their mouths all the time.

Lu Qi stretched out his hand to take out the sackcloth from the father and daughter's mouth, and the thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl cried out with a "wow".

The middle-aged father begged bitterly: "Two kings, my family has saved more than 3,000 yuan, and it is buried under the locust tree, which is intended to be left for the little girl as a dowry, if the king does not dislike it, take it."

I beg the two kings to spare my father and daughter. ”

Isn't it just a matter of getting rich when a robber enters the door? He offered to hand over all his money in exchange for his life.

Of course, there are also robbers who rob money and lust, then he can't help it, as long as the robber dares to touch his daughter, their father and daughter will die here.

"We're not robbers, we don't want your money," Lu Qi said, "After we leave, you can naturally regain your freedom." ”

"You're not robbers?" The middle-aged blacksmith's eyes widened: "Then what are you?" ”

"You may not believe it," Zhou Cang leaned under the tree with his shoulders and smiled: "We are all military generals of the imperial court. ”

"Forget it, you are all grandfathers of the gods," the middle-aged blacksmith said repeatedly, obviously not believing that this was a military general of the imperial court.

Coming in over the wall and tying them up as soon as they entered the door, could it be done by court officials? The robbers are pretty much the same.

Lu Qi and Zhou Cang knew that they didn't believe it when they saw the expressions of the father and daughter.

Of course, they didn't think it was very reliable when they thought about it, so they didn't pay attention to the father and daughter.

"Yuanfu, we are all going to die, what are you worried about?" After a while, Lu Qi said suddenly.

"Someone who is missing?" Zhou Cang asked angrily, then shook his head and said, "My parents died early, and I have no brothers and sisters, so why worry about it?" ”

Lu Qi sighed faintly, his long eyelashes drooped, and said gloomily: "Although my parents are in the world, my father is imprisoned, and my mother has an old disease, but I died here, and I can't fulfill my filial piety in front of the second elder......"

Her voice choked as she spoke, and a large teardrop crossed her fair cheek on the right.

Although Lu Qi usually looks heroic and free, she is actually still a girl in her bones.

The reason why she was able to stand up and kill the enemy like a man was completely so that one day she could rescue her parents and reunite her family not in prison.

"Actually, before I left, my mother's old illness was committed again, as long as my mother committed this disease, she would cough and feel painful, and I don't know what the situation was at this time.

I'm not afraid of death, I'm just worried about my mother's ......" Lu Qi choked up again and couldn't speak.
