All the people stood quietly in the rain, and no one went to hide from the rain.

At this moment, eyes converged on Wang Lei and Cao Cao.

Sun firmly looked at the two of them and did not say anything to interfere. He feels that he has a good relationship with Wang Lei and Cao Cao, but compared with the friendship between Wang Lei and Cao Cao, there is a certain gap, and it is not like a tacit understanding between the two.

In the current situation, Sun Jian can't intervene.

Cao Cao stretched out his hand to wipe the rain on his face, didn't care about his image, and roared loudly: "I don't know what your situation is? All I know is that you have a talent. The country is full of disasters and needs you to step up. This Han Dynasty is the world of the people of the world, and you, as a member of the people of the world, and the most capable of the small group of people, must take on the responsibility of the body and contribute to the country. ”

Wang Lei looked at the roaring Cao Cao and couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart.

No matter what, it was impossible for him to promise Cao Cao.

Wang Lei let the rain on his face slide down on his face, let his hair stick to his forehead, looked sincere, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Meng De, Wang Lei is very honored to be valued by you. But I still said just now, and I can't continue to ask Dong. You were born in the Cao family, after Cao Shen, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, your father was an official to the captain, and he assisted four generations of the Son of Heaven, and he was an old minister in the court. The Cao family is also a big family in the world, and you Cao Cao also became an official early with the help of the power of the family, but I am different, I ......"

Cao Cao interrupted: "Hmph, it's all an excuse!" ”

Wang Lei flicked his sleeves, and the sleeves with water stains were thrown out with a bang, only to hear Wang Lei sneer: "Excuse? I, Wang Lei, have my head on the sky and my feet on the ground, standing on this land with my head held high, do I need to use such a lame excuse? ”

Cao Cao held his head high, looked stubborn, and said nothing in the rain.

Sun Jian frowned, and with a wave of his hand, all the soldiers under Cao Cao's command retreated far away. At the same time, Sun Jian himself stayed away, leaving Wang Lei and Cao Cao to talk alone.

Cao Cao and Wang Lei are confidants, more like brothers, and there must be a lot to say when arguing.

Therefore, Sun Jian gave the two of them a space.

Wang Lei glanced at Sun Jian gratefully, and continued: "You Cao Cao was born in a family, has a good family, and even has the support of the Xiahou clan behind you. Without counting the connections between the Cao family and the Xiahou family, if you do a rough calculation, you already have the support of two major families behind you. Even if you fail, they still support you to the letter. ”

"The family's great human and financial resources allow you to continue and turn over in a short period of time."

"What's more, you are a court official, you have connections with many celebrities in the world, and you know countless princes in the world, it is easy to think of being an official, and it is easy to get a foothold in the world."

"You don't have the future of countless people on your shoulders, on the contrary, it is countless people who hold you up with your shoulders, so that you have the capital to fight for your ideals and let you fight for your ideas."

"But what about me? What do I have? ”

A low roar, like a heart-piercing question, made Cao Cao's body tremble.

Wang Lei's eyes widened angrily, and he said loudly: "I, Wang Lei, am a ruffian in Dong City, Ye County, Jizhou, do you have a family?" I have been an orphan since I was a child, how can my family support me unconditionally? What a joke. When you Cao Cao was wearing brocade clothes at home, I fought hard with people on the street, working hard for the hard-won three meals; When you were out walking your dog and fighting cocks, I was still hungry and worried that I couldn't find food to eat, so I had to desperately tighten my stomach to slow down my hunger; When you were studying in the schoolhouse, while you were being taught by your parents, I was trying my best to survive. ”

Wang Lei took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I don't have a good background, it doesn't matter, I work hard to create everything with my own hands, and I will change all this myself." You have the ideal to serve the country and the energy to crusade against Dong Zhuo, I have no objection. But I have to fight for my life, and I have to work hard for the responsibility that I have on my shoulders. ”

After a pause, Wang Lei continued: "Before May last year, I had always been a little ruffian in Dongshi, running desperately for a living all day long, do you know what opportunity made me suddenly change my fate? ”

Cao Cao's heart was shocked, for the first time, he felt that he seemed a little naïve?

However, he still insisted on his opinion.

Cao Cao took a deep breath, wiped the rain from his face again, and asked, "What chance?" ”

Wang Lei snorted and said in a deep voice: "At that time, I killed someone, and I was about to be beheaded in prison. At this time, Zhang Rang sent his son Zhang Cheng to Ye County to contact Han Fu, but Han Fu was unwilling to contact Zhang Rang, so he sent someone to assassinate him. I am the chosen one, I can live if I kill someone, I can only be beheaded if I don't kill anyone. I took over the task and went to kill Zhang Cheng and save my life. ”

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, and his heart trembled.

Killing people for the sake of life, helpless!

Wang Lei glanced at Cao Cao, and continued: "After killing Zhang Cheng, Han Fu promised to spare my life, but Han Fu gave another order to let me serve as the county commander of Wuji County in Zhongshan State. ”

"Ahh

Cao Cao exclaimed, feeling incredible.

Isn't it ridiculous for a ruffian to serve as a county magistrate?

In an instant, he felt ashamed again.

With Wang Lei's ability, it is more than enough to serve as a county magistrate.

Wang Lei's eyes were solemn and serious, and he said: "Do you think it is a good thing to serve as the county magistrate of Wuji County?" Wrong! Wuji County is a place where black mountain thieves are overflowing, and they can only be sent to death if they go. Han Fu asked me to go, deliberately sending me to death, so as to achieve the goal of making the interception and killing of Zhang Cheng completely disappear. On the first day I arrived in Wuji County, I was attacked by Black Mountain bandits...... Haha, it's a pity I survived. From a ruffian to the county magistrate of Wuji County, then to the governor of Zhongshan State, and finally to Zhongshan Xiang, he has come to this day. ”

"Everything I worked so hard to get, and you made me give it up for the sake of bullshit ideals?"

"No way!"

"Do you know how many lives I have on my shoulders? Do you know how many people's hopes for the future are on my shoulders? My path is only to go step by step, and I can't tolerate willfulness. You can disobey Han Fu's orders, and once I disobey Han Fu's orders, I will lose my position as the prime minister of Zhongshan and lose the foundation of everything. ”

Wang Lei clasped his hands into fists and bowed: "Brother Meng De, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't do anything and can't let go." If you really want to blame me, I'm willing to bear it. ”

He slammed to the ground, stood up, and turned to leave.

Cao Cao looked at Wang Lei's departing back, opened his mouth, and finally did not speak.

Rain, blindfolded!

The figure in front of him gradually became hazy, Cao Cao looked at the figure that was gradually moving away, and finally had to sigh lightly. After listening to Wang Lei's words, he could understand Wang Lei's mind of withdrawing.

People are on the way, and they can't help themselves.

Wang Lei has his own way, and he Cao Cao also has his own way.
