Leaving behind Ji Ling, who was stunned and inexplicably didn't even understand how to lose, Cao Shuo took Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao and turned around and left.

Cai Ji walked up to Ji Ling: "General Ji, please go back." ”

With a face full of shame, Ji Ling frowned and walked towards the barracks.

In the end, he still didn't chase after Cao Shuo.

Although he promised to surrender if he lost, Cao Shuo had already left, and it was undoubtedly a loss of face to catch up at this time.

Seeing Sima Yi and learning from him about the process of sending Liu Bei, Cao Shuo smiled and patted his arm: "If you want to talk about shamelessness, Zhong Da said that it was second, and no one dared to call it first!" ”

Sima Yi smiled.

He didn't say anything, but he muttered in his heart:

When it comes to shamelessness, I'm afraid there is no one in the world who can compare with Gongzi!

"Zhongda, Brother Deng and Brother Zhu will go to the military camp to teach immortal camp fighting from tomorrow, and you are responsible for arranging it." Cao Shuo said: "I still have some things, I have to go first!" ”

"Don't worry, Childe!" Sima Yi said: "I will arrange it properly. ”

Cao Shuo arched his hand at Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao again: "The two of you will stay in the barracks first, let Zhongda introduce the situation to you, and I will take the first step!" ”

"Childe go slowly!" The two returned the salute and watched Cao Shuo leave.

Out of the barracks, Cao Shuo did not go home, but went straight to Guo Jia's residence.

When Cao Shuo arrived, Guo Jia happened to have just returned.

Inviting him into the front hall, Guo Jia asked, "Why does Childe have the leisure to come to me?" ”

"I miss Guo Gong!" Cao Shuo grinned, took out the armband he was carrying from his arms, and said to Guo Jia: "I also brought something for Miss." ”

Glancing at the armband that Cao Shuo took out, Guo Jia said, "Later, I will ask the little sister to come out and meet the son." ”

When he came to Guo Jia's residence, Cao Shuo originally wanted to see Guo Xin.

Hearing that she would come out to meet, Cao Shuo looked at the door.

"Childe doesn't come, I'm just going to look for you." Guo Jia asked: "I don't know if Gongzi has heard recently that Sun Ce has broken through Chen Yu and is heading towards Anhui City." ”

"Wancheng?" Cao Shuo was stunned: "What did Guo Gong tell me to do this?" ”

"Jiangdong Sun has a grudge against Liu Biao." Guo Jia said: "Every time Cao Gong fights with Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao will send troops to help, if Gongzi is willing to go, help Sun Ce get Anhui City as soon as possible......"

"I understand what Guo Gong means!" Cao Shuo said: "It's just that my father didn't mention it to me, and I just came back from Chenliu......"

"Just now, I came back from Cao Gong." Guo Jia said with a smile: "Within two hours, Gong Cao will invite his son to discuss the matter." ”

"Guo Gong really treats me well." Cao Shuo smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not tired to death, and Guo Gong won't be at ease." ”

"Childe still doesn't understand?" Guo Jia said: "Now that Cao Gong relies on Gongzi, many things are arranged for you to do, which is also a good thing for Gongzi!" ”

Cao Shuo smiled slightly: "I heard that the people of Wancheng are outstanding and the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and I have long wanted to go and see it, but Guo Gong has helped me a lot." ”

"It's good that Childe doesn't blame me!" Guo Jia instructed the maid: "Please Miss come over for a ......"

"You still don't have to invite her!" Cao Shuo said: "Since Guo Gong has already mentioned to my father that I should go to Anhui City, I must have to leave in less than two days." I'd like to say a few words alone with Miss. ”

"Does Childe have any plans to marry Miss Yuan?" Guo Jia didn't agree immediately, but asked Cao Shuo.

"My father originally said that he would marry me when he came back from Chen Liu, and if he went to Wancheng, I am afraid that he would have to delay some days." Cao Shuo replied.

"It's not too late to get married again when you come back from Wancheng." Guo Jia said: "When the son marries Miss Yuan, Xin'er should marry into the Cao family." ”

"Thank you Guo Gongcheng!" Cao Shuo got up and gave Guo Jia a big salute.

Guo Jia smiled slightly and waved his hand at him.

As soon as he waved his hand, Guo Jia suddenly coughed violently.

"Guo Gong, what's wrong?" Cao Shuo hurriedly stepped forward and squatted in front of Guo Jia.

"Nothing!" The cough stopped, Guo Jia's face turned red and said, "It's old and sick......"

"Mr. Hua Tuo is in Xudu, why don't you invite him to come and see?" Cao Shuo asked.

"I'm not sick, what do I ask Mr. Hua Tuo to do?" Guo Jia said: "Childe don't pay attention to me, I'm very good!" ”

Staring at Guo Jia, Cao Shuo asked, "Did Guo Gong use lead and mercury to refine the pill again?" ”

Guo Jia didn't say anything.

"It's actually nothing to use lead and mercury to make alchemy." Cao Shuo said: "The recipe I gave last time can indeed only nourish and prolong the year. I wonder if Guo Gongken will show me the secret recipe for alchemy? ”

"What does Childe want for a secret recipe?" Guo Jia asked.

"When I go to Wancheng, I must pass through Xiangling on the way." Cao Shuo said: "Xiangling is also known as Bagong Mountain, where the eight warlocks made alchemy for Emperor Wu. In terms of alchemy, where else in the world can it be better than Xiangling? ”

"Childe, wait a minute!" Guo Jia stood up and walked to the door.

Seeing him leave, Cao Shuo's face was not good-looking.

Guo Jia is extremely smart, known as a ghost, but obsessed with alchemy.

Lead and mercury are poisonous, but most alchemists like to use them to make secret elixirs.

If you eat too much of this kind of pill, not only will you not have the slightest benefit, but you will die quickly!

After a while, Guo Jia walked in.

He took out a piece of silk with words written on it and handed it to Cao Shuo and said, "This is the secret recipe for the elixir." ”

I took the silk and looked at it.

Cao Shuo found that this secret recipe was not much different from the one he gave Guo Jia last time, and if there was a difference, it was only the addition of sulfur, lead and mercury.

"This secret recipe was written by Guo Gong?" Cao Shuo asked.

"It's not." Guo Jia said: "When Gongzi went to Chenliu, I met Zuo Ci by chance, and he changed it for me. ”

Cao Shuo's head was full of black lines.

Those things in the Zuo Ci Society, except for the room technique, which is really useful, are all tricks.

Guo Jia actually believed his bewitchment and changed the secret recipe to this.

"Zuo Ci has some skills." Cao Shuo said: "But I suspect there is something wrong with his secret recipe. ”

"What does Childe think is wrong?" Guo Jia asked.

"Otherwise." Cao Shuo said: "I took this secret recipe to Wancheng to find capable warlocks for Guo Gong and ask them to take a look." If they also felt that there was no problem, Guo Gong would continue to refine the pill according to this recipe. ”

Since eating the elixir refined by this recipe, Guo Jia really didn't feel as good as a few days ago.

He nodded and said, "Childe has a heart, I'm waiting for good news." ”

Putting the secret recipe into his arms, Cao Shuo said: "I'll send the young lady an armband first, and Guo Gong will wait for me to come back from Anhui City!" ”

Walking out of the front hall, Cao Shuo entered the back garden.

was walking towards Guo Xin's residence, and a maid came over.

When she arrived in front of her, the maid bowed and said, "Childe, my young lady has been waiting for a long time!" ”

"How did she know I was coming?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Miss didn't say anything!" The maid replied, "She just asked the slave maid to greet the childe." ”
