Chapter 6: Escaped

Pushing open the door of his residence, Mo Shuyan walked towards the kang mat in the dark, stretching out a foot at every step to detect whether there was anything in front of him.

It took a little half a effort, Mo Shuyan walked to the kang seat, he had already scolded in his heart, he had already been accustomed to pressing the switch directly when he entered the door, and he felt radiant, in this era of no electricity, there was no even light pollution of lighting, no wonder assassins were rampant, try it in modern times, and give you a thorough picture with a snap, what else can you assassinate, it is estimated that the assassin industry will be laid off collectively.

Thinking like this, Mo Shuyan still stretched out his hand towards the windowsill next to the kang mat, Li Dian had brought the fire from this place just now.

After touching it left and right a few times, he finally touched the round small bamboo tube, Mo Shuyan took it, pulled out the bamboo tube, and gently blew into it.

The bamboo tube was slightly red at first, and then a small flame rushed up, appearing at the mouth of the bamboo tube, in this environment where he couldn't see his five fingers, Mo Shuyan suddenly felt that this flame was so cute and moving.

Reaching out again to pull the candlestick on the kang table, Mo Shuyan gently lit the candle with a small flame, and for a while, the light was shining, and most of the whole room was illuminated, and unconsciously, Mo Shuyan's mood was much better.

At this time, Mo Shuyan was on the right side of the house, and in addition to the kang seat, there was a bed opposite, which were the only two things in Li Dian's room.

Mo Shuyan picked up the candlestick, intending to see what was on the left side of the house, and looked down to see if there were any stumbling blocks.

As soon as I walked to the place facing the door, the candlelight had already illuminated most of the left half of the room, and a bookcase and a seat were dimly visible, as well as a bookcase behind the bookcase, but there was a dark shadow in the seat in front of the bookcase, which was not real.

Mo Shuyan, who was delighted, hurriedly took a few steps forward, illuminating the black shadow, and took a closer look, but Mo Shuyan's eyes were almost out of his sockets, and the candlestick in his hand trembled suddenly with Mo Shuyan's shaking, and the candle flame was almost extinguished.

After taking a few deep breaths, Mo Shuyan calmed down slightly, and the candle flame stubbornly returned to brightness, continuing to illuminate the space on the left side of the room.

A black figure sat on the seat in front of the bookcase, with his back to Mo Shuyan, wearing a black robe and a sword beside him, Mo Shuyan has only seen one person so far, that is-Cao Cao.

Now Cao Cao suddenly appeared in his room, but Mo Shuyan didn't find it at all, which proves that Cao Cao has to come a long time earlier than himself before he can be silent, so Cao Cao should have heard the conversation between himself and Li Dian, and it is unknown how much he heard.

Mo Shuyan, whose face was pale and his forehead was drenched in cold sweat, forced his spirits, put the candlestick in his hand on the ground, took a few steps forward, and turned his back to the candlelight, so that the nervous look on his face was not too obvious.

Then, Mo Shuyan folded his hands, bowed to Cao Cao, suppressed the tremor in his voice, and said: "I don't know that General Cao is coming, I miss the welcome, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”

"The sin is forgivable, sir, please tell me what crime you have committed?" Cao Cao didn't mean to turn around at all, and said to the darkness in a flat tone.

Hearing this, Mo Shuyan was slightly stunned, his eyes narrowed slightly, is this question intended to test me? If you ask me to tell me what I have sinned, I may be wrong to answer if I know that forgiveness is just a polite remark.

However, Mo Shuyan knew that Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, and if he delayed answering for a long time, he was afraid that it would cause suspicion, and if it was too late, Mo Shuyan could only be ruthless, bent his knees slightly, and knelt down heavily to Cao Cao.

"Shuyan's crime, first, is that the fault is not to talk about the general behind his back; Second, the mistake is that we should not buy people's hearts for the general. ”

After finishing speaking, Mo Shuyan faced Cao Cao and fell to the ground with his hands, his head slammed on the ground, and he didn't dare to get up at all.

Sweat flowed down his forehead and penetrated into the wood, and some remnants flowed on the surface, making Mo Shuyan's aching forehead feel better.

When he came to this world, Mo Shuyan made such a big gift for the second time, and his heart was almost desperate, but thinking that there would be more such things in the future, his heart became numb a lot.

After a long time, the sound of the rubbing of the robe sounded in Mo Shuyan's ears, mixed with the sound of the sword off the ground.

Mo Shuyan's heart suddenly tightened, and Cao Cao finally got up.

Sure enough, then there was a heavy walking sound in Mo Shuyan's ears, and every time he landed, he would slightly shake Mo Shuyan's forehead, and Mo Shuyan silently counted in his heart: one step, two steps, three steps......

Until the sixth step, the footsteps stopped, and the ground no longer vibrate, Mo Shuyan could already see the black shoes close at hand on the left through the afterglow, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat, for fear that Cao Cao would end himself if he drew his sword and raised his sword.

The regret in my heart is a thousand words, I knew that this was the case, Mo Shuyan would not talk to Li Dian if he was killed, he would definitely go back to the house and fall asleep, ignoring Li Dian's life and death, no matter how much he valued Li Dian, his life was not as important as his own life.

For a moment, Mo Shuyan didn't wait for Cao Cao's sword, only Cao Cao, who had already squatted down to support him.

With Cao Cao's support, Mo Shuyan, who stood up, saw Cao Cao's smiling face, and saw a pair of eyes full of approval.

"Mr. removes the vigilance of his subordinates for Cao, how can he buy people's hearts, but it is Cao, who spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and hopes that Mr. will forgive."

Mo Shuyan could hear the sincerity from Cao Cao's tone, and he was happy in his heart, it seemed that he didn't have to die, and he had won Cao Cao's trust by beating him crookedly.

"Don't dare to be it, it's really a matter of subordination." Mo Shuyan, who knew that he was safe, spoke in a much lighter tone, with a bright smile on his face.

"That's very good. If everyone is like a gentleman, why worry about the great cause? Cao Cao handed the sword in his hand to Mo Shuyan, and then said: "Cao saw that Mr. had no weapon for self-defense, and the name of this sword was Black Crow, so he gave Mr. self-defense." ”

Hurriedly took the sword, and Mo Shuyan made another series: "Thank you General Cao for the sword." ”

"Do you still call Cao General Cao?"

"My lord."

……

After discussing some inconsequential trivial matters with Mo Shuyan again, Cao Cao finally proposed to leave, which made Mo Shuyan breathe a big sigh of relief.

"In this way, Mr. will ask the good student to rest, and Cao will not bother."

"Slow down, lord."

Mo Shuyan slightly, Cao Cao nodded, glanced at Mo Shuyan meaningfully, and then checked out and closed the door for Mo Shuyan.

When the footsteps faded away, Mo Shuyan was like a deflated balloon, almost paralyzed on the ground, intriguing with Cao Cao, it was really uncomfortable and wanted to vomit blood.

Putting the sword on the kang mat, Mo Shuyan blew out the candles on the ground, leaned against the wall and felt the darkness to the side of the bed, fell on the bed without any image, and fell asleep.
