Chapter 137: Potential
Cao Xing came all the way from Bingzhou, but in the end, he only gave Cao Xing a hundred soldiers and horses, and let Cao Xing garrison a city gate that was almost abandoned, which was indeed a bit unkind, but when he came, Wu Fu also explained to Cao Xing very clearly, because the holy decree was snatched away by the Qiang people, so Cao Xing arrived in Luoyang half a year late.
In the past half a year, Luoyang has changed a lot, which means that Cao Xing's original position seems to have been robbed by others, and in the end, only one Xuanmen guard's position was left, so Wu Fu had no choice but to arrange Cao Xing to this position.
Cao Xing also expressed his understanding of this, who called him unlucky, but because Cao Xing had a meritorious role in arresting the assassin this time, He Jin waved his hand and directly prepared to let Cao Xing rise to another level.
Now Cao Xuan followed Wu Fu and the others to a lake, Wu Fu pointed to the body that had been soaked a little swollen and asked Cao Xing, but this person, and Cao Xuan nodded, this corpse was wearing the clothes of a eunuch, and there were traces of being shot by arrows on his arms and feet.
Now that all this has been confirmed, Wu Fu also nodded with great satisfaction, and directly promoted Cao Xing on behalf of the general, Cao Xing is still the captain of Yingyang, but he no longer needs to be stationed in Xuanmen, he can take his soldiers and horses and directly stationed in the martial arts arena and become a real captain.
Although Cao Xing's position has not changed, the power in his hands has indeed changed a lot, and he can only stay there forever when he is stationed at the gate of the palace, but now that he is stationed in the hands of the martial arts arena, he really has available soldiers, and he can practice every day, and the trained soldiers are the most solid force in his hands.
Cao Xuan hugged Wu Fu and expressed his gratitude, after all, he knew that this reward could come down so quickly, and it was estimated that Wu Fu had made a lot of efforts from it, and Wu Fu also smiled, patted Cao Xing's shoulder, asked Cao Xuan to do a good job, and then left directly with people.
However, after Wu Fu left, there was a person who had been standing in place and did not leave, Cao Xuan looked up and found that it was Yuan Shao, who had an unpleasant quarrel with this Yuan Shao that day, Cao Xuan didn't want to pay more attention, and was about to turn around and leave, but Yuan Shao stepped forward with a smile and blocked in front of Cao Xing.
"Hehe, I don't know what Captain Yuan has to say!" Cao Xuan said expressionlessly.
I thought that Yuan Shao just looked unhappy, so he came to find trouble, but he didn't expect Yuan Shao's next sentence to surprise Cao Xing.
"Cao Xing, what a trick to hide from the world!"
At that moment, although Cao Xing's heart was a little flustered, he quickly calmed down, showed a smile to Yuan Shao, and left without saying anything.
A day later, Cao Xing came to the school field, and the effect built in Luoyang was really extraordinary, compared with the school field in Bianyun County, it was at least ten times larger, and it could accommodate at least 50,000 soldiers and horses, and this was not the only laughing ground in Luoyang.
Wu Fu sent people to directly lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to Cao Xing's hands, and from today on, these 3,000 soldiers and horses will be trained by Cao Xing.
Cao Xing looked at the three thousand soldiers and horses one by one, since they were allocated from the general, he didn't dare to say that he was a strong general, but no matter how decent they were, they were all strong young people.
Cao Xing still followed the same training method he used when he merged the state, practicing a series of skills such as queue in the morning and stabbing charge in the afternoon.
In this way, after almost a week, Cao Xing's soldiers and horses gradually became familiar with Cao Xing, and on this day Cao Xing threw all the affairs in his hands to Che Wu, and then went out of the city alone.
Cao Xing rode a horse and first walked around the city twice, after making sure that no one was following, and then drove the horse quickly, galloping in one direction Cao Xing, directly came to the foot of a mountain, got off the horse and climbed the mountain on foot, this mountain is still relatively high, at least three hundred meters high.
The mountain is also uninhabited, there is no unified mountain road up the mountain, only the rock wall that seems quite steep, Cao Xing is holding the rope of rock climbing, a little cautiously groping upward, climbing for more than an hour, Cao Xuan finally climbed to the top of the mountain panting.
However, as soon as he climbed to the top of the mountain, a strong hand held Cao Xing's arm, and then lifted Cao Xing up.
"General Cao is really thankful!"
The person in front of him who pulled himself up was none other than Wang Yue, at this moment Wang Yue's eyes were full of gratitude when he looked at Cao Xing, Cao Xing not only let him go, but also let go of his apprentice Shi A, although Shi A is now injured, but his life has finally been saved, and now he is recuperating in the mountains, as for the body salvaged from the bottom of the lake, it is definitely not Shi A's.
On that day, Cao Xing asked like Wang Yue, Wang Yue has been walking the rivers and lakes for so many years, in the face of this situation, doesn't he even have a little means to protect himself?
Wang Yue just thought for a moment, then nodded to Cao Xing, Cao Xuan asked Wang Yue to take his apprentice Shi A to hide in the grass next to him, Cao Cao came with soldiers and horses, and did not find any trace of the two of them, just watched Cao Xuan take people to the lake and kept salvage.
When Wang Yue went back, he immediately took his sword and recruited a bandit he was familiar with, killed the bandit with a sword, and then helped him change into the clothes of a eunuch, with his vigorous body, under the noses of those officers and soldiers, he directly threw the corpse into the lake, so the corpse salvaged by those officers and soldiers was completely the thief who was killed.
Cao Xing and Wang Yue walked on the top of this mountain, and after a while, he walked into a small cabin, Cao Xing looked at Shi Ah who was lying on the bed, and he was still unconscious, but Wang Yue said that he just suffered a little skin trauma, plus a little bit of blood loss, but it was no big deal, anyway, Shi A also woke up a lot during this period, and now he only needs to recuperate quietly, and he can recover as before.
Since Wang Yue said so, Cao Xing was relieved.
This time Cao Xing rescued Wang Yue, Wang Yue was naturally very grateful to Cao Xing, but Wang Yue had nothing to repay Cao Xing, so he told Cao Xing that he could teach Cao Xing martial arts, so today he specially notified Cao Xing to come to the mountain, and Cao Xing naturally went happily, after all, his martial arts are really a little poor, if he meets any master, then he will burp directly, so there is a famous teacher to guide, Cao Xing is naturally very happy.
And at this moment on the top of the mountain, Cao Xing and Wang Yue stood opposite each other, Cao Xing was holding a spear, and Wang Yue was just holding a three-foot Qingfeng.
Wang Yue told Cao Xuan not to spare his hands, and attacked him directly, Cao Xuan also agreed, and then took the spear and stabbed Wang Yue directly with the thrust he usually trained.
Although Cao Xuan also knew that he was definitely not Wang Yue's opponent, but he was usually well-trained, this menacing shot, no matter how much Wang Yue would dodge, but what made Cao Xing's eyes staggered was that in the face of Cao Xing's marksmanship, Wang Yue not only did not dodge in the slightest, but stood in place like this, directly using the long sword in his hand, and gently picked it, so that Cao Xing's spear turned in a direction, Cao Xing's spear directly passed by Wang Yue, and Wang Yue's fur did not come down at all.
Cao Xing was not convinced, and tried the second and third shots one after another, but each shot was easily dealt with by Wang Yue, and after half a quarter of an hour, Cao Xing stood on the ground panting with a long spear.
Wang Yue told Cao Xing before that he Wang Yue is known as the Sword Saint in the rivers and lakes, and his martial arts have naturally reached the level of peak cultivation, and now Wang Yue's martial arts have reached the level of martial arts.
The gap between Cao and Wang Yue is not a star and a half, and it is understandable that he is now defeated by Wang Yue so easily.
Originally, Cao Xing still thought like this in his heart, but Wang Yue's words ruthlessly broke Cao Xing's thoughts.
"Cao Xing, you are the life-saving benefactor of me and my apprentice, if you want to learn martial arts, I will naturally teach you, but don't blame the old man for being too talkative, the old man has fought countless martial arts fivefold people in his life, but you seem to be the weakest one! If the old man is really willing to make a move, one move can determine your life and death! ”
"What!" Cao Xing's whole person was about to go crazy when he heard this, what does this mean? Is his Cao sex really so brittle?
Seeing Cao Xing's expression so excited, Wang Yue smiled and said: "Cao Xing, I don't mean to hit you, I just want to tell you a truth, although I can see that you are working hard, but please think about it, whether it is important to choose or work hard!" ”
Listening to Wang Yue's question, Cao Xing fell into deep contemplation, according to the truth, choice and hard work are equally important.
There are many untalented people in history, but through their own efforts step by step to the top, just like Deng Ai during the Three Kingdoms period, he was a stutterer and couldn't even speak clearly, but others eventually became a generation of generals with their own efforts.
These stories are very inspiring, but then again, if the path you choose is very different from your own, then you need to work a hundred times and a thousand times to achieve the same level as others.
But if the path you choose just meets your own requirements, then you may only need to do your best to rise to the top and ride the wind, which is the so-called momentum!
Cao Xing slowly put away the spear, and at this moment he had understood what Wang Yue meant, so he asked Wang Yue: "Senior, if you have anything to say, just say it!" ”
Wang Yue laughed twice, and then said: "In fact, when you were practicing martial arts in the palace, I also secretly observed in it, and I found that you have a natural disability for weapons such as spears or broadswords, but if you kill the enemy with a sword, I dare to guarantee that you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!" ”
