Chapter 108: See Cao Cao Again
Sun Ce turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to Beidou Feng, raised his head, and looked at the top of the mountain.
This is a small dirt slope, not tall, but the view is wide, from the top of the mountain to the far eye, within ten miles of the panoramic view. Cao Cao was very trustworthy and only brought ten horsemen, and Sun Ce only brought ten horsemen. The knights of both sides were on one side of the hillside, thirty or fifty paces apart, looking at each other from a distance, and no one dared to be careless. At the top of the mountain, there was only a lonely figure, motionless, like a stone statue.
Sun Ce moved, and Dian Wei was just about to follow, when a person on the opposite side shouted: "Well, only one person is allowed to go up." ”
Dian Weili ignored it and followed closely behind Sun Ce. Sun Ce waved his hand and motioned for Dian Wei to wait below. Dian Wei was puzzled, but he still handed over Sun Ce's long knife. Sun Ce didn't answer, put his hands behind his back, and walked up slowly. The mountain road was not long, and although Sun Ce walked very slowly, he still arrived quickly. He stopped and looked around. There is no trace of anyone within ten miles, and it is indeed a good place, a good place to kill people.
The figure on the top of the mountain turned around, five short figures, average appearance, not ugly, but in the Han Dynasty, which paid attention to appearance, he was definitely not a beautiful man. He was covered with fish scale armor, but he didn't wear a helmet on his head, only a Wu Ben, which was a bit long, and looked a bit like a tumbler with a piece of grass stuck on its head.
Sun Ce couldn't hold back and laughed.
Cao Cao rolled his eyes, smiled, and reached for the long knife at his waist. Sun Ce's heart sank, and he couldn't help but regret it a little. He didn't carry a knife, only a dagger. If he did this, he would suffer a little. Just thinking about it, Cao Cao pulled out a long knife from his waist, held the tail of the knife upside down, and handed it over. Sun Ce was stunned, puzzled, and stared at Cao Cao blankly.
"Thank you for sending back Miaocai's body, I can't repay it. This knife is made by Shang Fang, the real Baixuan knife, which was given by the Son of Heaven after I followed Huangfu Yizhen to pacify the Yingchuan Yellow Turban, and the knife has not left my body all these years. I'll give it to you as a greeting gift. ”
Sun Ce didn't take the knife, but stared at Cao Cao, not knowing what the hell he was doing. Cao Cao laughed, pulled out his long knife, and swung it out. A dwarf tree broke in response, the incision was smooth, and it was obvious that the knife edge was excellent, and it was true. Cao Cao returned the knife into the sheath and handed it over again. Sun Ce took the knife in his hand, pulled out half of the long knife, looked at it, and pushed it back, but did not return it to Cao Cao.
"Last time I sent a horse, this time it's a knife again, Cao Gong is so polite, I deserve it." He said that he was ashamed, but he held the knife in his hand.
Cao Cao squinted at Sun Ce for a long time, and laughed with a "poof". "You're not like General Sun."
"What?"
"You're not like your father." Cao Cao retracted his gaze, took a few steps away from Sun Ce, took his hands, and looked at the people under the mountain. "Although I haven't met General Sun, I have heard Taiwei Zhang Gong say that General Sun is brave and has a bold personality, I don't know your martial arts, but you are cautious and very vigilant." Cao Cao paused, and then said: "You have such a city at your age, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing." ”
Sun Ce chuckled in his heart, and looked at Cao Cao with a somewhat strange gaze. His wariness is indeed very strong, and it is not directed against any one person. No matter who he was talking about, he couldn't tell his secret, but he covered it up so well that even Zhou Yu couldn't notice it, but he didn't expect it to be broken by Cao Cao, who met for the first time. He frowned, suddenly laughed, held the knife behind his back with both hands, and slowly walked behind Cao Cao, his eyes swept over Cao Cao's neck.
Cao Cao didn't move, not even the hand behind his back.
"Cao Gong is not afraid that I will kill you?"
"If that's the case, I have only one request."
"What requirements?"
"If you win the world in the future, be kind to my family."
Sun Ce was confused. What does Cao Cao want to do? He doesn't want to live anymore and wants to end his life by my hand? Or...... Joke? At this moment, Cao Cao slowly turned around with a sinister smile on his face.
"Sun Lang's ambition is not small."
"What?"
"Sun Lang is determined to be in the world, and he will not live under the people for a long time. Yuan Highway is not the choice of Ming Jun, but you are dedicated to assisting him, do you want to catch cicadas with praying mantises, and the yellow finch is behind? Cao Cao blinked and smiled even more happily. In this way, Yuan Benchu could breathe a sigh of relief. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Sun Ce only realized at this time, and he was a little annoyed and angry. This old thief deceived me once not long ago, and now he is coming to trick me again, to see that I don't kill you. He pulled out his long knife with a snort, played a knife trick, and looked at Cao Cao with ill will.
"Please be kind to my family." Cao Cao put away his smile and bowed, looking serious.
"Cao Gong, what you said makes me very confused." Sun Ce couldn't cry or laugh, Cao Cao didn't play his cards according to the routine, I wanted to kill you, but I didn't want to support your family. Are you going to let me kill or let me not kill?
Cao Cao straightened up, stared at Sun Ce for a moment, and suddenly laughed. He leaned back and laughed very happily, unsteady on his feet, and sat on the ground with his butt overwhelmed, still overjoyed, and slapped the ground hard. Sun Ce looked confused. Could this future Emperor Wu of Wei be a psychopath? He knew that Cao Cao was judged to be a joke in history, but today's performance is no longer a joke, it is simply the late stage of epilepsy.
Or...... I'll treat him, go down with a knife, and even save the head wind in the future.
"Alas, it's the first time I've been so happy after so many days." Cao Cao slowly suppressed his laughter, sighed, and turned his head to look at the hillside to the east. "Does Sun Lang know what that is?"
Sun Ce shook his head. "It's the first time I've come to Wancheng, and I'm not familiar with it."
"Tao Zhu Gong Ancestral Hall." Cao Cao stood up and patted the dirt on his body. "Tao Zhugong is a native of Wancheng, Nanyang, after helping Gou Jian to take revenge, he will hide in the rivers and lakes with wine, under the pseudonym of Yizi Pi, and he is rich in business and the world. Although he did not return to the township to be buried, but the people of Wancheng set up an ancestral hall for him, and the ancestral hall you see now was erected not long ago when the general Sima Fan Zimin conquered the Yellow Turban. ”
Sun Ce looked at the ancestral hall hidden in the bushes in the distance, and then looked at Cao Cao. There was no trace of a smile on Cao Cao's face, and his eyes were as gloomy as the dead branches of a tree with fallen leaves, revealing indescribable bitterness.
"You say, if the husband is not confused, should Gou Jian raise horses for him for a lifetime, be a slave for a lifetime, or die in battle and die with his homeland?"
Sun Ce will slowly come to his senses. He turned to the opposite side of Cao Cao and looked at Cao Cao with a smile.
"You're not talking about Gou Jian, you're talking about yourself, right?"
Cao Cao met his gaze, looked at it quietly for a moment, and suddenly smiled. "I said yes, you. Sun Bofu, Yuan Highway is not a husband, he will not give up his vigilance against your father and son, the more merits you make, the more dangerous it is. Brothers are not compatible, can he tolerate you? Do you think your father and son are more powerful than General He? ”
