The heavy rain clouds have not yet occupied the entire sky, and between the clouds, you can see that the blue sky is like a wash,?? I hope that the wind outside the sky will blow away ------ clouds and haze, and Bagong Mountain, shrouded in black clouds, is set against the backdrop of sunny days and black clouds. The peaks and peaks are stacked and green, the scenery is clear and picturesque, and the mountains before the rainstorm are about to have a kind of majestic quiet, the fog is all closed, and the forty-one peaks can be seen in the calendar. The Huaishui and Huai River in the distance seem to be still and do not flow, the mountains and rivers are quiet and beautiful, and the scene is extraordinary.

There is a unique kind of vanilla in Shouchun Bagong Mountain, fragrant and fragrant, transplanted elsewhere Ze The fragrance is lost, when the twilight of spring, when the formal vanilla grows, Chen Caozhi and Xie Daoyun immediately high slopes, only to feel that the mountains are fragrant, the two mounts look for this herb to chew, the aroma is more cold.

Xie Daoyun was in a happy mood and raised his voice: "I once saw Zizhong hand-copying "Huainan Honglie", and the sixteenth volume of the mountain said that I love a passage in the mountain training, and Zizhong knows which sentences? Chen Caozhi said: "Let me guess". In his heart, he flew over the sixteen volumes of words, and said slowly: "Lansheng Valley, the part is not convincing; The boat is in the river and sea, not for the sake of not riding and not floating; A gentleman does righteousness, and does not stop for ignorance - is this the sentence? ”

Xie Daoyun smiled, the wind was moving, he looked sideways at the water in the distance, and sighed in his heart that "one confidant in life is enough", and said: "Zizhong crossed the Huaishui today, when will he return?" Chen Caozhi: "The road is long and difficult, it is difficult to ask the return date, if it goes well, you can come back in late autumn and early winter." Xie Daoyun said: "Zizhong Mingnian shows Di Qin, but it seems that he has other plans, and everything is careful." ”

Chen Caozhi said with a smile: "Master Ziyun, wealth can be sought, although I am also a whip person, I will go north with a whip today." Trying to influence the general trend of the Three Kingdoms, I will only fight this once, and I will definitely be able to come back and see Brother Yingtai again. ”

Although Chen Caozhi said that he was seeking wealth and wealth, Xie Daoyun knew that Chen Caozhi was not just a selfish person who sought fame and fortune. Zizhong is so heavy, small in front of him and big in the world, Zizhong has come all the way from Qiantang, and now it is the time when he is aiming at the world, how can such a high-spirited and quiet man not be favored!

A blazing lightning pierced the sky, thunder followed, and the dark clouds like ink rolled and spread, and in an instant there was no gap left in the clear sunny sky, and the surrounding mountains seemed to have rain and fog to respond, and the dome-like sky was covered with black clouds, surging and rolling, brewing a torrential rain.

Duan Si's generals Duan Zhao, Huang Xiaotong, Ran Sheng and his three hundred troops, Shen Chiqian and twenty Shen's private soldiers, two Qin Zhi seagulls, and more than ten private soldiers and servants of Xie Daoyun were waiting at the bottom of the mountain to go on the road, when Chen Caozhi and Xie Daoyun galloped down the mountain, the dense rain line was like a curtain opening from north to south, and soon caught up with Chen Xie and the two who were not wearing rain gear-

Huang Xiaotong and another old servant of the Xie family hurriedly handed over the bamboo hat, Chen Caozhi first wore the bamboo hat and then put on the robe, and then looked at Xie Daoyun, lacking the first and then the coat was put on, and the rain on his face suddenly rained, and the towel was wet-

Chen Cao thought to thank Daoyun, obviously he was used to being served by others since he was a child. I still don't know a little about these daily things, but after all, she is a girl from the Xie family of Chenjun, although the heavy rain toppings are a little embarrassing, she will not be in a hurry, sitting on the back of the horse and buttoning her coat calmly-

Chen Caozhi leaned over and took the bamboo hat from the old servant of the Xie family, stretched out his arm to put it on Xie Daoyun, and suddenly found that Xie Daoyun's chest shirt was wet, and the outline of his breasts was faintly visible.

Xie Daoyun tied the straps under his chin, raised his eyes and asked, "Zizhong, how do you cross the river in such a rainstorm?" ”

Chen Caozhi said: "Last night, I had agreed with Yuan Tingshi to send a few more big boats, and it would not rain much in the upper reaches of the Huaishui and Huai River in the past few days. The water has not yet risen sharply, and it is still too late to rush to the crossing. If it drags on until the afternoon, the water and wine will rise - Brother Yingtai will say goodbye, cherish the return trip, and be careful of thieves. ”

Xie Daoyun looked at the torrential rain that was falling like random arrows and arched his hand: "That, Zizhong hurry up, I wish you a safe trip and return with meritorious service." ”

Chen Caozhi thanked him, and led the soldiers to the north in the rain with Ran Sheng.

Xie Daoyun immediately went down the Bagong Mountain, looked at Chen Cao and disappeared into the rain curtain, did not move for a long time, although there were clothes and bamboo hats to cover the rain, but the rain was too big, and the body was almost drenched by the rain, those Xie private soldiers and domestic servants were on standby in the heavy rain, after a while, Xie Daoyun suddenly fell under the horse, and the horse rushed out of the northwest for dozens of zhang, and a group of Xie tribes thought that Ah Yuan Niangzi had forgotten something, and now the demon went to catch up with Chen Caozhi, so they all urged the horse or walked to catch up, but saw Xie Daoyun take the horse's head and ran back. He said, "Back to the city!" ”

The river flows eastward. At the Fengtai Gorge Pass, which joins the Huai River, Chen Cao and his entourage waited for the rain to rest for a while, and then took a warboat to cross the Huai River. Then after traveling north for several miles on the left bank of the river, it turned northwest and headed for Ruyin County, 20,000 miles away.

Because yesterday on the north bank of Shaobi because of the night rain was almost robbed by the homeless people, Ran Sheng was very ashamed, he didn't expect to be so chaotic in Huainan, now to Huaibei, after Ruyin, Xincai, it is even more not peaceful, Xuchang has been occupied by the Xianbei people, the Xianbei people may attack Chen County and Luoyang at any time, Ling Yi since crossing the Huai River, Ran Sheng ordered the sergeants to be on guard throughout the whole process, two cavalry scouts, eight infantry scouts took turns to sentry ten miles away, and must not let a large group of suspicious people approach them unnoticed. At the beginning of the Shen Shi period on March 28, Chen Cao and his pedestrians came to the outside of Ruyin City, where a wagon loaded with weapons broke, and everyone rested on the side of the road, repairing the yoke while sending people to report to the Taishou of Ruyin County.

At this time, a group of forty or fifty people came from Naner, some of them were at least, some were not working, and some were pushing wheels. When they passed by Chen Caozhi and the others, they saw the sergeant repairing the carriage, and the leader was still arching his hand to Chen Caozhi on the horse, and asked politely: "This envoy, is there anyone who needs to serve?" ”

Chen Caozhi was slightly surprised, took a closer look at this person, and saw that this person was in his twenties, with straight eyebrows and a majestic figure, riding a yellow horse and wearing a double knife. But it was not a martial artist's attire, just an ordinary civilian, Chen Caozhi returned the salute: "Thank you." A little thing, don't dare to work. ”

The man immediately arched his hand and led the group like Ruyin City.

Ran Sheng saw Chen Caozhi staring at the backs of the group of people, so he asked, "Brother recognizes these people?" ”

Chen Caozhi smiled and said, "Familiar! It seems to be the homeless people I met in the south of Shouchun Castle that day. ”

Chen Caozhi has an excellent memory, although he can't forget it, but an article of about 1,000 words, he can recite it three or five times, and he is meticulous and observant, and he is good at observing, and the thieves found that it was the Jin army who robbed him, and the leader said two "misunderstandings and misunderstandings", turned around and fled, Chen Caozhi heard that the voice of the man riding the yellow horse was quite similar to the voice of the thief that day, and saw that his subordinates were all wearing swords, and it was very likely that the group of homeless people fell that day!

Ran Shenghuan's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "When I catch up, I will capture all the thieves—"

Chen Caozhi is to be raised by Ran Sheng. Shen Chiqian called over and asked him to send two private soldiers to follow the group in front of him, to see where they lived, and it would be better if he could hear who they were. Two private soldiers took the order.

The Taishou of Ruyin County personally came to welcome Chen Caozhi. Chen Caozhi and his pedestrians were placed in Guan Yi, and Chen Cao Zhi and Ran Sheng were invited to a banquet that night, and when Chen Cao Zhi and Ran Sheng returned to Guan Yi from Ruyin Taishou Mansion, the two Shen tribes had been waiting for a long time, and picked up Chen Caozhi, one of whom could speak well, Shen Clan Qu said: "The two of us were ordered to follow the group of homeless people to the Shiping Inn in the north of the city, the inn seems to be opened by that group of people, and they are very familiar, and the villain pretended to live in the hotel, asked for a guest room, and stayed for more than an hour, so he found out that the group of people was from Ruyang Sujiabao, and the name of the leader was Su Qi. ”

Chen Caozhi nodded, praised two words of kindness, let the two Shen tribes go down to rest, and ordered someone to invite Yi Cheng to come, that Yi Cheng knew that Chen Caozhi was the state envoy of the chef Di Qin, the six-grade prince Xian Ma, and he was respectful to each other, and he heard that Chen Caozhi was invited, so he hurriedly came. Chen Caozhi asked him about Sujiabao in Runan, but Yicheng couldn't answer, only knowing that Sujiabao was in Pingyu County, more than 200 miles away.

After Yi Cheng went down, Ran Sheng said, "Brother." I have two sergeants who are from Runan, and when I call them to ask, do you know about Sujiabao? ”

The two sergeants soon arrived, talking about Sujiabao in Pingyu County, Runan County, one of the sergeants said: "Back to Chen Rafter and Chen Du, the villain has not been to Sujiabao before the army, which was ten years ago, the villain went to Sujiabao mercenary, at that time the Sujiabao wall was first built, and there were about 1,000 men, women and children in the Su family. ”

When Ran Sheng heard the sergeant say his father's name, he couldn't help but "snort", a little annoyed, and the sergeant was suddenly silent, and he didn't know where he had lost his words!

Chen Caozhi glanced at Ran Sheng and said, "No wonder the inn in the north of the city is called Shiping Inn, this is not forgetting the homeland." "Ask the sergeant again, do you know Su Qi's name?

The sergeant glanced at Ran Sheng worriedly, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

The sergeant replied, "This villain knows that the name of the lord of the castle is Su Daozhen. ”

"Su Daoqian?" Chen Caozhi was silent. I feel that this name is more familiar, it seems to be a well-known figure in history, but I can't remember who it is?

The sergeant knew that was all there was to it, Ran Sheng waved them down, and asked Chen Caozhi, "Does Brother want to subdue this group of displaced people?" ”

Chen Cao smiled and said, "It's always a good thing to be able to make friends with some Wandering Grandmasters, Runan is the only way for us to go through the peace, and we will walk with them tomorrow." ”
