Chapter 6 Undercurrents

PS: Ask for tickets! Thanks to Lang Gezi for the tip

Xiangyang Inn.

Whenever there is breaking news, there will always be people of one kind or another in the streets.

"Liu Bei threatened to break Sun Quan with 700 fine horsemen by 30,000!?"

"Is there a mistake!? Is he in a bad brain, or is he completely insane!? ”

"Lord Huang's 20,000 elite soldiers can't resist Sun Quan, and the mere 700 cavalry can't even stuff Sun Quan's teeth, isn't this a waste of death!?"

"Alas! Isn't it? If you want to blame, you can only blame Cai Mao for not sending troops, otherwise how could Liu Da'er be inserted into this. ”

"That's right! It is estimated that this is also forcing our state pastor to have no tricks. ”

"That's it."

“”

In the post house, almost every place is full of such topics, and Liu Bei at this time has become synonymous with "his head is squeezed by the door", a man who is arrogant, unrealistic, and boastful.

Chen Deng, who temporarily lives in the post house, is convinced of this, and in the face of gossip, it is better to ignore it than to chatter and argue, everything needs to rely on facts to speak to be the truth.

Squeak~yah~

Chen Deng pushed open the door as usual, went downstairs, and the noisy voices were annihilated for a while, but all the eyes were once again focused on Chen Deng's body.

"He is Liu Bei's advisor, and his name seems to be Chen Deng."

"It is said that this person is not simple, but he is from the Guangling clan, from a famous family, and his vision is very high!"

"Such a person will also take refuge in Liu Bei!?"

"Probably I was blind."

“”

As if he hadn't heard, Chen Deng still came to the pre-booked food table, waved his hand and shouted, "Xiao'er! It's business as usual, four side dishes, a good pot of wine! ”

Xiao'er put the wine and food on the table and waved his hand to make an invitation: "Mr. Chen!" Please have a meal. ”

Just as Chen Deng was about to eat with chopsticks, there was a cheer outside the post house, followed by four or five big men. Surrounded by two slightly obese children of the official family, they came to the post house.

As soon as the two entered the inn, they came straight in the direction of Chen Deng, with a strange smile, holding up a slightly obese figure, and they had to bypass many diners. He greeted Chen Deng and said, "Hey! Isn't this Guangling Chen Deng, who has been admired for a long time. ”

Chen Deng glanced up at the two of them, and sighed unconsciously, they were a group of short-sighted scritters, wasn't it just sneering. Is it a sycophant to shoot Cai Mao? Is it necessary?

After a sip of turbid wine, Chen Deng smiled lightly: "Xiaoer, add two pairs of chopsticks!" ”

One of them waved his hand and stopped: "No need! We're here just to remind Mr. Chen! Now three days have passed, and there are four days left until the seven-day appointment. ”

The Seven-Day Covenant!

That was the "Haikou" that Guan Yu boasted about above the palace that day! However, this Haikou is an impossible thing for Cai Mao and Liu Biao, but there is enough room for Liu Bei here, and it can even be described as more than enough.

Chen Deng continued to pour himself a sip of wine, and said without even raising his head: "Isn't there still four days before it expires?" Why are you in such a hurry to be ugly? ”

"Offering ugliness!?"

The two of them immediately laughed wildly on their backs, and immediately laughed, and even a little out of breath.

"Good! That's nice! I, Cai He, began to admire you a little! ”

Cai He stretched out his arm and patted Chen Deng twice on the shoulder. And said: "Don't give up!" Strong enough! What a man! Very much with my appetite. It's better like this, when the news of Liu Bei's defeat comes, you will come to my Cai Mansion as a doorman, our family needs such a thick-skinned person to guard the door. ”

Cai Zhong hurriedly added: "And the salary I give you is twice as high as that of ordinary people, how about it!?" ”

The two sang and harmonized, like two flies, buzzing and buzzing, which was simply disgusting.

"Yuanlong! Yuanlong! ”

Outside the post house, a thunderous roar came: "I'm Jinghui!" My lord asked me to come to you! ”

He was followed by an eight-foot-tall man with two halberds at his waist. Shirtless broke into the Xiangyang Post House, looked around, snorted softly, and then strode in front of Chen Deng.

With a big wave of his hand. A fierce push to Cai Zhong and Cai He, stretched out his hand and grabbed the wine, and the gurgling was a burst of binge drinking.

Cai Zhong, Cai He, and the big man behind him were immediately furious, and an arrow stepped forward, and the sword in his waist came out of its sheath with a bang, and a cold glow appeared. Immediately after, the four bronze swords all fell to the ground.

But seeing that the halberd in Hu Che'er's hand was standing straight at the throat of the big man at the forefront, the four big men were immediately stunned, and they didn't even know when Hu Che'er moved his hand.

"Mr. Yuanlong! When did you like to chat with these cowards? Hu Che'er glanced at Chen Deng and asked indifferently.

"Bold!"

On the side, Cai He got up, just raised his arm and was about to question Hu Che'er, followed by Hu Che'er and flew up with a kick, just above Cai He's lower abdomen, Cai He immediately flew out upside down like a broken kite, and even smashed several food tables along the way.

"Ascend to the disciple! Get out of the way! ”

Hu Che'er didn't show them mercy at all.

Chen Deng still took a sip next to the dining table, and asked indifferently: "As the Lord's personal guard, you don't help the Lord in Jiangxia, what are you doing in Xiangyang!?" ”

Hu Che'er immediately turned his head and grinned: "It was the lord who asked me to come to you!" Huang Zu's son almost died on the battlefield, and now he is saved by the lord, and the lord asks you to take him to Mr. Hua Tuo to help heal. ”

"Oh, what about the lord!? How is the lord at this time!? ”

Chen Deng deliberately raised one decibel and looked around at the people in the inn.

"Then Sun Quan can't help but fight, it's boring, it's boring!"

Hu Che'er waved his hand, and the wind swept over lightly.

The phrase "boring", this is really interesting! Almost all the people in the inn immediately understood what Hu Che'er meant, and their eyes widened and looked at Hu Che'er incredulously.

Chen Dengyi waved his hand: "Jinghui!" Come and sit. It's still early, let's go to Mr. Hua Tuo after dinner. You can tell me how the lord defeated Sun Quan, and it also opened the eyes of the younger brother. ”

Originally, Chen Deng always looked high, but now he lowered his posture to invite Hu Che'er, which made Hu Che'er feel good, and immediately sat down in a fart hole, drinking and chatting freely.

This chat threw out all the things that Liu Bei would plan and defeat Sun Quan and Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, and Zhang He to crush Sun Quan.

Chen Deng didn't show much surprise, but there was no one in the post house who was not shocked!

"Hey! If the lord sends out all the generals and high school captains, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as killing the two captains, what Tai Shici, Gan Ning, what Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, all have a dead end! ”

Hu Che'er chatted excitedly, and before he knew it, a pot of turbid wine had already been drunk: "Xiao'er! Bring the wine! ”

"No need!"

Chen Deng hurriedly pulled down the Hu car, stood up, and walked out of the post house with his head held high and swept past Cai Zhong and Cai He.

That look! What a dashing one.

Hu Che'er hurriedly followed and greeted, "Mr. Yuanlong! Where are we going!? ”

The corners of Chen Deng's mouth rose: "Looking for Mr. Hua Tuo!" ”

***************

Xiangyang Prefecture Pastoral Mansion.

"Wen Chang! Are you telling the truth? ”

Childe Liu Qi asked incredulously.

Wei Yan's face was very unnatural, just a hmm, and he did something hastily.

At this time, Wei Yan's thoughts were still stuck on the day of the conversation with Liu Bei, Liu Bei's directness, Liu Bei's regardless of his background, and Liu Bei's ambition made him unstoppable and haunted by dreams.

"Great!" Gongzi Liu Qi clapped his fist high-five, "As long as Liu Bei can defeat Sun Quan and calm the war, Cai Mao can't do anything about entering Jingzhou." ”

Childe Liu Qi paused: "No!" I've got to get to my father. With that, he turned and left the room.

When the son-in-law Liu Qi strode to his father Liu Biao's residence, Cai's just came out of the inner hall, and the joy on Liu Qi's face that couldn't be concealed aroused Cai's curiosity.

Could it be that something happened!?

After the son Liu Qi left, the Cai family quietly followed.

"Father!"

Liu Qi came to the study, and Liu Biao was reviewing some official documents at this time.

"Qi'er! But what's the matter? ”

Liu Biao put down the bald pen in his hand, placed the bamboo slip on the side of the bookcase, and waved his hand to signal Liu Qi to sit aside.

"Father! Liu Bei had 700 cavalry, defeated Sun Quan twice, and killed two of Sun Quan's generals. Liu Qi got straight to the point.

"Seriously!?" Liu Biao obviously couldn't believe it.

Gongzi Liu Qi said firmly: "It's what my generals have seen with their own eyes, and presumably there will be news in the next few days." ”

"Oh," Liu Biao became interested, "With Liu Bei's seven hundred elite horses, he can defeat Sun Quan!?" This is really unimaginable, Liu Bei is really extraordinary. ”

Liu Qi agreed, and then said: "Father, Liu Bei's strength is weak at this time, so we can take the opportunity of Liu Bei's victory over Sun Quan to recruit him and make him available to his father, so that his father can balance Cai Mao and truly lead Jingzhou." ”

"Hmm!" Liu Biao nodded thoughtfully, "Qi'er is reasonable, tomorrow I will officially announce that Liu Bei will enter Jingzhou, and all military expenses will be paid by me Jingzhou." ”

Liu Qi showed a faint smile and said, "Father is wise! ”

Liu Biao pinched his beard under his chin, and even showed a treacherous appearance, as if everything was expected by him.

Outside the study, the Cai family was a little shocked, this is another shocking news, this matter must be hurriedly told to his brother Cai Mao, otherwise the status of the Cai family in Jingzhou will be replaced by Liu Bei.

And at the same time, Cai Zhong and Cai He had already told Cai Mao everything that happened in Xiangyang Post House, although Cai Mao was still skeptical about Liu Bei's victory over Sun Quan, but he had secretly decided at this time that it was time to do something. (To be continued.) )
