Chapter Seventy-Six: Killing Zhao Cen

It was night, as Ding Xiao expected, the person who came out to patrol the night was indeed Zhao Cen.

Just when Zhao Cen walked to a corner, he suddenly felt a strong wind drifting behind him, and he suddenly turned around, only to see that his two guards were already lying on the ground silently.

He was startled, and just as he was about to react, he saw that a short sword was already on his neck.

"Don't move!"

A soft shout came from behind Zhao Cen, "If you dare to shout, I will make you head in a different place." ”

Zhao Cen suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

The other party can sneak into the barracks quietly, and put down the two guards in the blink of an eye, and restrain himself with a raised hand, his martial arts and cultivation must be far above him.

However, although he didn't dare to act rashly, he still pretended to be calm and scolded, "Hmph! Do you know what this place is?! If you dare to kill me, you will never be able to escape! ”

"Less nonsense!"

The person behind him obviously didn't want to talk to Zhao Cen about it, and moved the short sword in his hand to Zhao Cen's neck by half an inch again, "You can answer whatever you ask, if there is a nonsense, your head will move." ”

"Yes, yes!"

Under the pressure of the huge death, Zhao Cen's expression collapsed at once, and he no longer dared to pretend to be reserved, "A good man spares his life!" If you have anything to ask, I will tell you the truth. ”

"Hehe, General Zhao, your attitude is right."

Opposite, Ding Xiao slowly emerged from the shadows, with a shallow smile on his face, "This is not a place for conversation, I'll make a long story short." I am Ding Xiao, the son of Ding Yuan, and next to you is my brother-in-law Lu Bu, we are here to persuade you to join us and fight against the traitor Dong Zhuo, I don't know what you think? ”

"Oh?"

As soon as he heard Ding Xiao report to his family, Zhao Cen was a little surprised by the other party's courage, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, "It's persuasion, why don't you draw your sword against each other?" ”

"There is no way, we are in great danger when we enter the barracks at night, for the sake of insurance, we have to make this decision, and I hope General Zhao will forgive us."

Ding Xiao explained with a smile, and then asked again, "Let's get down to business, then Dong Zhuo has done all the bad things, and everyone in the world can be punished, I wonder if General Zhao has the heart to abandon the darkness and turn to the light?" ”

"This ......"

After Zhao Cen hesitated again and again, he said, "My family is in Beijing, even if I have the heart to oppose Dong, I can only be powerless. ”

"Don't worry about this, as long as you are willing to submit to my Ding family, I promise that I will personally rescue your family safely." Lu Bu swore an oath on the side.

"Heh, what guarantee do you have?" A sneer rose on Zhao Cen's face.

"I can sneak into the barracks without knowing it."

Lu Bu said proudly, "With my cultivation and force, there are no more than three people in the capital who can stop me!" ”

"This ......"

Zhao Cen's face was embarrassed, and after Yu Guang swept the arrow on his shoulder, he hesitated, "Can I think about this matter?" ”

"I'm sorry."

Ding Xiao didn't give the other party time to think about it at all, "You have to give an answer now." ”

"The matter...... The stakes are high, and if you are sincere, let me consider it for a few days. Zhao Cen prevaricated.

"Looks like you've got a choice."

Ding Xiao shook his head with some regret, and then said to Lu Bu, "Brother-in-law, kill him." ”

"Huh?"

Lu Bu was slightly stunned, Zhao Cen's face changed suddenly, only to see him shrink his neck suddenly, flick the short sword away from his body with his shoulder, and then roared, "There are assassins!" ”

When the words came out, Lu Bu woke up like a dream, his wrist suddenly exerted force, and he sent it forward, piercing the back of the opponent's heart with a sword.

Then, as soon as he pulled Ding Xiao up, he rushed to the outside of the barracks.

"Someone has robbed the camp! Catch the assassins! ”

When the sentries on several watchtowers heard the sound, they immediately found Ding Xiao and the others, and then sounded the horn while setting up their bows and firing arrows.

Suddenly, torches were lit up in various parts of the barracks, illuminating the entire barracks as if it were day.

"General Zhao has been killed! Catch the Assassins! ”

After Zhao Cen's body was discovered, the whole army was shocked.

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers in the various tents rushed out, each took his weapon, and surrounded him from all directions.

"Whoosh."

Lu Bu knocked several arrows to the ground, and then asked Ding Xiao with some anger, "Why did you let me kill him?" ”

"I want to ask you."

Ding Xiao's expression was also very unhappy, "We have already said in advance, look at my eyes, why did you hesitate just now?" ”

"Didn't I try to recruit him!"

Lu Bu kicked the soldier blocking the road into the air, and then asked, "He obviously hasn't explicitly refused, why are you in a hurry to let me do it?" ”

"His attitude is already very clear, and he is only afraid of the sword on his neck, so he will say that he will think about it."

Ding Xiao explained a little irritably, and said hurriedly, "I'll talk about the specific details later." ”

"Humph!"

Lu Bu was obviously not satisfied with this explanation, but he also knew that the situation was critical at the moment, so he fell silent, and then vented all his grievances on the soldiers who were blocking the way.

This was the edge of the barracks, close to the outside, and there were only a dozen soldiers in the way in front of them.

And these soldiers actually have the cultivation of the Shijing realm, where is Lu Bu's opponent, even if Lu Bu does not have Fang Tian's halberd in his hand at this time, killing them is as simple as chopping melons and vegetables.

"Boom, boom."

Soon, Lu Bu punched and kicked in front of him, killing a bloody path.

"Whoa—"

A long whistle came out of Lu Bu's mouth, and then he raised his hand and slashed out a martial arts technique "Half Moon Slash", blasted open the wooden wall of the barracks, and rushed out with Ding Xiao.

"Chase! Don't let them run! ”

"Shoot the arrows! Stop them! ”

"There are only two of them, they definitely can't run fast, let's chase after them!"

Seeing the two of them breaking out of the camp, the pursuers in the rear were a little anxious, some released arrows, some showed their martial skills, some continued to chase, and some turned around and ran to the stable.

At this moment, a fiery figure appeared from a distance, stopped in front of Lu Bu and the others at a very fast speed, and saw the two of them turn over and get on their horses, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

"What a speed!"

"What kind of horse is that? How fast it will be! ”

"Don't chase, the other party obviously rode a treasure horse, and our horse can't catch up at all!"

The soldiers who chased out of the barracks were a little dazed and stood in place one by one.

In the coach's tent, Hua Xiong, who received the news, had a gloomy face, and smashed the teacup with one hand.

"Red Rabbit? Lu Bu? Hum! See how you die tomorrow! ”

The other end.

After getting out of danger, Lu Bu slowed down his horse and stirred up the topic again.

"Brother Xiao, I don't understand, why did you rush to do it just now?"

"Brother-in-law, you think you have just proposed to personally save Zhao Cen's family, but he dodged and avoided answering, and the promise was already obvious."

Ding Xiao frowned and replied, "And that Zhao Cen was too calm just now, which made me have a very bad premonition." ”

"What hunch?"

Lu Bu turned his head and asked.

"I can't say ...... either"

Ding Xiao shook his head, "He gives me the feeling that he is full of confidence in Dong Zhuo, as if he knows that we will lose." ”

"Haha, I think you're too worried!"

Lu Bu smiled disappreciatively, "We have an army of 120,000, if we can't take the other party's 50,000 horses, then what kind of hegemony are we talking about?" ”

"But here's the thing...... Li Ru also knows that we have 120,000 horses! ”

Ding Xiao said, suddenly thought of a possibility, and his face changed suddenly.

"Not good!"
