Chapter Seventy-Six: Stooping to the Thief

Cao Pi and his entourage came out of the house.

"Lin Xiao ......" Although Lin Xiao has his back to Zhang Zhongjing, Zhang Zhongjing has treated Lin Xiao every day in the past few months, and the two can be said to be very familiar. Therefore, even if it was the back, Zhang Zhongjing recognized Lin Xiao at a glance.

Zhang Zhongjing secretly rejoiced in his heart: "It is impossible for Lin Xiao to come to Xiangyang alone, I think this is the idea of the military advisor, the military advisor is full of wisdom, I am afraid that it will not be long before my son and I can go back!" ”

Most of the people who were watching the excitement at the door before had been dispersed by the subordinates of the Taishou Mansion, but there were still a few children of the family who really wanted to buy the tigers hunted by Lin Xiao, and they were entangled and refused to leave.

Seeing that there were still a few people at the door who refused to leave, they stepped forward and scolded: "They all told you to leave, and you still don't leave?" Do you want to go to prison for a few days? ”

When they saw this, they scattered in all directions.

"Hey, this good thing can't be sold yet!" Lin Xiao sighed, grabbed it with both hands, and picked up the tiger on his back, preparing to leave.

"Strong, please stay!" Cao Pi saw Lin Xiao grabbing it casually, so he carried the thousand-pound giant tiger on his back, and was immediately pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Lin Xiao.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao put down the tiger on his back again, and said to Cao Pi: "What is the matter with Gongzi stopping him, do you want to buy this tiger?" ”

Cao Pi looked Lin Xiao up and down, and saw that he was eight feet tall and looked like a tiger's back, thinking that he was a fierce general, he suddenly fell in love, he looked at the tiger on the ground, and asked, "Is this what you shot?" ”

Lin Xiao shook his head and said: "It's not shot, the shot will damage the fur and won't sell it for a good price, so I beat him to death, is the son going to buy it?" If I don't buy it, I'm gone. ”

"I was really killed!" When Cao Pi and Xiahou Shang heard this, they squatted down and rummaged the tiger up and down, and sure enough, the tiger did not have any arrow wounds on its body, and there were still undried blood stains on its mouth and nose, which was obviously killed not long ago.

Shooting a tiger is not a big deal, at most it is just a great archery, and what is really powerful is being able to fight a tiger.

The person who can fight and kill the tiger is a real fierce general who is ten thousand enemies.

For example, Cao Pi's younger brother Cao Zhang, who was able to fight and kill tigers before the weak crown, was deeply loved by Cao Cao and was also a favorable contender for the position of Cao Pi's son.

Now seeing that Lin Xiao can fight and kill the tiger, Cao Pi is naturally moved to subdue, such a brave person, martial arts are comparable to the tiger idiot Xu Chu, whether it is to stay by his side as a guard, or to dedicate to Cao Cao to the army as a general, it is good for him.

Cao Pi was about to speak, but Xiahou Shang was the first to get up, he knew that Cao Pi wanted to subdue Lin Xiao, so he planned to test Lin Xiao's martial arts first. It is brave to be able to fight the tiger, but it may be that he has a brute force, but he is not good at real fighting skills, so he is inferior, and it is not worth Cao Pi's great efforts to recruit.

Xiahou Shang pinched his fingers and made a crisp sound, he said to Lin Xiao: "I don't believe that you killed this tiger, let me see if it's true!" ”

Xiahou Shang said, clenched his hands into fists, and rushed towards Lin Xiao with an arrow.

Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed, knowing that this person was trying to test his martial arts, and if he wanted to gain Cao Pi's favor and gain his trust, he had to show enough strength.

"Hey!" Thinking of this, Lin Xiao was angry and dantian, and all his strength was transported to his arms, Xiahou Shang's fists attacked one after the other, Lin Xiao turned his body away, and after dodging a punch sideways, he made a preemptive attack, and his hands also attacked Xiahou Shang at great speed.

One palm, one punch!

Lin Xiao turned his left hand into a palm, clamped Xiahou Shanghou's punch to the end, and turned his right hand into a fist and hit Xiahou Shang's chest.

Xiahou Shang's punch missed, and he didn't have time to defend himself, the punch was clamped by Lin Xiao's left palm, and in the face of Lin Xiao's punch to the chest, there was nothing he could do at all, so he could only watch this punch fall.

"Hmmm......"

A muffled snort came from Xiahou Shang's mouth, and then Xiahou Shang took a few steps backwards in a row, until he was knocked down by the tiger on the ground behind him, and then stopped.

"Ahem......" Xiahou Shang sat on the ground, clutching his chest, his face flushed and coughing.

"Boren, it's okay!" Cao Pi and Sima Yi hurriedly stepped forward to support each other.

"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Xiahou Shang coughed a few times in a row, and then slowly eased up, and said to Cao Pi: "What a master!" ”

"Hmm!" Cao Pi nodded, there was no need for Xiahou Shang to say more, just now Lin Xiao defeated Xiahou Shang, a powerful general in the army, which was enough for Cao Pi to see his strength clearly.

"Divine doctor, come and show Beren!" Cao Pi called Zhang Zhongjing, handed Xiahou Shang over to Sima Yi to take care of, and walked to Lin Xiao's side.

Lin Xiao pretended to be vigilant and said, "What do you want to do, he will beat me first, and you won't be able to arrest me." ”

"Haha!" Cao Pi laughed when he heard this: "Don't worry, I won't catch you, you tiger, I bought it!" ”

"Ask for 100,000 dollars!"

"I'll give you 200,000 dollars!" Cao Pi smiled and said: "Strong man, you have such a martial art, why don't you join the army?" ”

Lin Xiao shook his head again and again and said: "What's so good about being in the army, I can earn hundreds of thousands of prey a day, and if I am lucky enough to meet a big tiger, it is enough for me to eat for three years and five years." You can't eat enough to be in the army! ”

Seeing Lin Xiao talking so interestingly, Cao Pi liked it even more, and he smiled: "Being a soldier in the army, naturally you can't live a good life, but being a general is different, being a general can be powerful, you can eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, you can wear gorgeous clothes, and you can marry several wives and concubines." ”

Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "How many years do you have to be in the army to become a general!" ”

Cao Pi saw Lin Xiao say this, it can be seen that he has a heart of merit, so he proposed to solicit: "I can't hide it, my father is the prime minister today, and I am his second son, Cao Pi, it is better for you to take refuge in me, or it won't be long before you can become a general, if I become the son of the world in the future, there are few people in the world who can surpass you!" ”

When Lin Xiao heard this, his eyes were on the boss: "Aren't you fooling me?" Are you Prime Minister Cao's son? Shouldn't Prime Minister Cao's son-in-law be in Xudu? ”

"I have something to go out, this is the Taishou Mansion, I live here, can I still lie to you? What do you think? Would you like to follow me? ”

When Lin Xiao heard this, he immediately knelt down and bowed to Cao Pi and said, "Lin Xiao has seen the lord!" ”

"Lin Xiao? Good name, hurry up! Cao Pi was overjoyed and hurriedly helped Lin Xiao up.

Then Cao Pi pulled Lin Xiao into the Taishou Mansion: "Follow me into Fu, I will pick you up and wash the dust!" ”

When the group entered Fuzhong, Cao Pi immediately ordered his subordinates to set up a banquet to entertain Lin Xiao, and Lin Xiao presented the tiger to Cao Pi, and held a banquet for the whole tiger at noon.
