Chapter 387 There is a brother like this
In Lu Ren's mansion, there was a coffin placed in the side house. It's just that this coffin is just something that Lu Ren uses to cover people's eyes, because Lu Ren knows that if he doesn't deal with some things, he may cause some unnecessary trouble. As for the coffin, there was actually a pile of stones...... If you can't do this well, Lu Ren just don't mess around. It's a pity that Lu Ren doesn't know about his tricks, and he can't hide it from someone who should be hidden the most.
Lu Ren himself is now in the study, thinking carefully about what he wants to do next. And out of personal habit, Lu Ren is using pen and paper to list the things he is currently thinking of. After a long time, Lu Ren put down his pen and took a closer look at the matters listed in his articles, and he fell into deep contemplation:
"The amount of physical strength enhancers is limited, and the number is not much, this can't be counted, in other words, I don't have any combat effectiveness on the battlefield at all, not to mention the matter of leading troops to fight, I don't have that ability, even if I want to lead the troops, Lao Cao will not let me lead the troops, so I can't start in this regard if I want to avenge Wan'er.
"If I want to avenge Wan'er, I'm afraid I can only take advantage of the general trend of the situation, that is, to help me avenge the war between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. It's just that if you follow the original historical process...... It is now the fourth year of Jian'an, but Yuan Shang was not killed by Gongsun Kang of Liaodong until about the twelfth year of Jian'an, which is eight years.
"Eight years? I can't wait that long! For me, the more practical method should be to fight for Yuan Shang in front of the two armies in the Battle of Guandu, or the Battle of Liyang later, or help Cao Cao capture Yuan Shang, and then ask Lao Cao for Yuan Shang's head, which is only more practical in comparison. And now the key question is what I have to do to fix something that might have an impact on the direction of the situation. ”
I went over the many items written on the paper again. Lu Ren had roughly decided what he should do next. At this moment, Cai Yan knocked on the door of the study and called, "Yihao, can I come in?" ”
Lu Ren hurriedly put the paper with the matter in his arms, after all, these things can't be seen. After hastily putting it away, Lu Ren responded, "Wen Ji?" Come on in. ”
Cai Yan slowly walked into the room and knelt down in front of Lu Ren. He glanced at Lu Ren with a few thoughts, and finally said hesitantly: "Yihao...... Isn't it time for you to let Wanmei go to the ground? ”
Lu Ren nodded. Although Wan'er's body had been sent back to Shirley a few days ago, it was not difficult for Lu Ren to play a little trick to deceive the people around him, and no one knew what was inside as soon as the coffin was closed.
Two days later, the coffin, which had only been laid with some stones, was buried in the chosen cemetery. Because Wan'er is only Lu Ren's maid in terms of identity. With the ritual system at that time, no one would come to pay tribute to such a mere maid. Even a person like Guo Jia, who is quite familiar with Wan'er, just sent someone to send a white gift.
Only Mrs. Ding, who was raising children, brought a group of children over to put incense sticks on Wan'er. Because of the relationship between Wan'er and Cao Ang, Wan'er is Mrs. Ding's daughter-in-law, and Mrs. Ding likes Wan'er very much, and the children of the child-raising house also like Wan'er, the big sister who has always been very good to them.
For Lu Ren, this tomb is just a mound of clothes, but the discomfort in his heart will not change anything. From the beginning to the end of the funeral, Lu Ren did not say a word. Relative. No one wanted to bother Lu Ren.
――――――――――――――――――――
On the night after "Wan'er" was buried, Lu Ren was meditating in the study, and the doorman came to report that Guo Jia was visiting, so Lu Ren ordered someone to invite Guo Jia into the study to talk. And Guo Jia entered the study. He glanced at Lu Ren for a few moments, and after being silent for a while, he said, "Yihao, are you kid ready to help the lord against the enemy Yuan Shao now, and then use this to take revenge on Yuan Shang?" ”
Lu Ren nodded.
Guo Jia was silent for a while. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "Do you know what you're doing now?" Is it really good for you to continue to do it like this? ”
Lu Ren said calmly: "I know what I'm doing, Lao Guo, you don't have to worry." ”
Guo Jia frowned. After pacing around the study with his hands behind his back, he said to Lu Ren again: "It's just for a woman, why do you have to do this?" In my opinion, you should leave this alone and go back to your teacher's door as soon as possible. As for your family members, if you can take them away, try to take them away, and if you can't take them away, I will take care of them for you. ”
Lu Ren shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Go? Lao Guo, where do you want me to go? ”
Guo Jia suddenly reached out and grabbed Lu Ren's collar, gritted his teeth and said, "There are so many messy miracles and strange arts on your kid, where are you going to take Wen Ji and Xiaolan!?" I don't care so much about you, you'd better get the hell out of here, and get out of here as far as possible! ”
Lu Ren casually broke away from Guo Jia's hands: "Old Guo, what's wrong with you?" You didn't want me to go before, why did you want me to leave this time? ”
Guo Jia said: "It was before, and now it is now!" In the past, you were a hippoie, and there were more or less unscrupulous bastards, but to be honest, I feel comfortable looking at you like that. But now it's only been a few days, and you've become ...... Alas, what do you want me to say? I just felt like I didn't know you all of a sudden. To be honest, I always feel that if you continue like this, there is a good chance that you will one day end up in a situation from which you will never recover, and I don't want that to happen. So you'd better listen to my advice, you stinky boy, and leave the Central Plains, the land of right and wrong. ”
In fact, Guo Jia still has some words that he can't say. Guo Jia's eyesight has always been very vicious, Lu Ren's changes in the past few days, of course Guo Jia saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, and Cao Cao's head has changed a little, Guo Jia also saw the same.
At this moment, Guo Jia would say those words, that is, Guo Jia vaguely felt that Cao Cao had also changed towards Lu Ren, and it seemed that Lu Ren had done something that made Lu Ren exceed the limit of Cao Cao's tolerance. Although he was not sure yet, Guo Jia keenly sensed that Cao Cao might already have the idea of being ready to get rid of Lu Ren at any time in his heart.
Then again, if Guo Jia didn't know Lu Ren's personality and regarded Lu Ren as a brother at the same time, I'm afraid even Guo Jia himself would have the idea of getting rid of Lu Ren at the right time. Because the current Lu Ren has made Guo Jia feel a little scary. But what is terrible, Guo Jia can't say clearly.
Looking at Lu Ren quietly for a while, he just smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, old Guo, I actually know a lot of things." I know that some of the things I am doing now are likely to exceed the bottom line that Cao Gong can tolerate, and may lead to death in the near future. But there is one thing, before Yuan is dead and Wan'er's revenge is not avenged, Cao Gong will be reluctant to touch me. ”
Guo Jia sat down in front of Lu Ren and persuaded bitterly: "Yihao! You should leave as soon as the lord doesn't have any murderous thoughts on you! If it is too late, then it will be too late to regret it! If you believe me, I will try to avenge Wan'er's revenge! ”
Lu Renxin said that I can't leave even if I want to, Shirley's teleportation device is broken, and God knows when it will be repaired. But where can Lu Ren say these words? At that moment, Lu Ren shook his head calmly and said, "No, I must cut off Yuan Shang's head with my own hands......
"Lao Guo, in fact, my life itself has not been a few years, and Wan'er has passed away, and I am already a person with a dead heart. What is supporting me now is the idea of avenging Wan'er with my own hands. Maybe only you know how important Wan'er is to me. If I can't avenge Wan'er with my own hands, even if I can live a long life, it will be meaningless. ”
"You ......"
Guo Jia was so angry with Lu Ren that he couldn't speak. After a long time, Guo Jia could only flick his sleeves vigorously and prepare to leave. When he walked to the door, Guo Jia suddenly turned around and said, "Stinky boy, don't be lost in hatred!" The lord will not touch you in a short time, but if you are negligent, no one will be able to save you! And I'm ......
"Let me tell you this, now the lord can't, and he doesn't dare to say anything to me, because you and I must be good brothers, no matter how I do, I will take care of you a little, and the lord will take care of me a little because of this. As for the fact that the lord may want to get rid of you, in fact, I have inadvertently seen it. But you kid must know that once the lord says it to me, between loyalty and righteousness, I'm afraid I can only choose the former! ”
Lu Ren smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Lao Guo, it's still the same sentence, if I really want to leave, I'm afraid no one in the world will be able to stop me." But Lao Guo, I still want to thank you for coming to remind me. ”
Guo Jia let out a long sigh and said: "Stinky boy, you are where you are today, it can be said that it is all because of me, and it can be regarded as 'success and Xiao He'." But I don't want to be 'defeated' in the future! ”
Lu Ren smiled. At the beginning, he was introduced by Guo Jia to Cao Cao's command as an official, and now Guo Jia said such a thing, which is nothing more than to show Lu Ren that if he really gets a certain position, he Guo Jia will attack himself, so that there is indeed a taste of "I am Han Xin, you can be better than Xiao He". However, Lu Ren didn't care much at the moment, just smiled and responded: "Don't worry, Lao Guo, there won't be such a day." ”
Guo Jia glanced at Lu Ren for a few moments, and finally flicked his sleeves and left the study, leaving only one sentence: "I hope so!" ”
Lu Ren smiled, reached into his arms and touched the matter paper in his arms, and whispered to himself: "Lao Guo, I don't know if you really came to me today to persuade me or to test me, but now I can't tell the truth to anyone...... But then again, these words of yours really reminded me that if I can't go back, I really have to leave a way out for myself first. Well, put it on my agenda and think about it. (To be continued......)
