Chapter 46: Zuo Ci

Cao Cao looked at the secret letter sent by Yin Li in his hand, and did not dare to pursue it in vain, fearing that Lu Bu would kill the undead and let his 100,000 army go down the drain. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Chen Deng hated Lu Bu for slaughtering his father and mother, and the hatred of the clan was not shared, and he wanted to torture and kill Lu Bu's family to mourn his deceased father, but when he arrived at Xiapi, he had been replaced by Lu Bu with Pengcheng, Chen Deng was angry, and watched Lu Bu flee in all directions, but Cao Cao was restrained, which made Chen Deng more and more dissatisfied.

Yin Li has always been contacted by Chen Deng, and got the secret letter sent by Yin Li, Chen Dengman thought that this was the best time for revenge, once Lu Bu hid in Mount Tai, with the high mountains and dense forests of Mount Tai, it was a pipe dream to catch Lu Bu again to pay tribute to his deceased father.

"The prime minister doesn't dare to pursue?" Chen Deng looked at Cao Cao's expression and asked coldly.

Cao Cao was immediately furious, who dared to question him in person like this? was about to take down Chen Deng's beheading, and was persuaded by Liu Bei for a while to be spared.

Chen Deng did not give up, and his tough attitude forced Cao Cao to send troops to pursue. Liu Bei was secretly anxious on the side, and his heart said that Chen Deng's wisdom had been completely blinded by hatred, and he wanted to remind him at the right time.

"Zuo Ci has not arrived, how to break Lu Bu's demon art?" Cao Cao wanted to use Chen Deng's strength to fight against Lu Bu, so he lowered his posture and comforted.

"Lu Bu bewitches the crowd and deceives the ignorant, if you don't chase it, I'll chase it!" After Chen Deng finished speaking, he didn't bow back, turned around and left.

Cao Cao heard Chen Deng insulting himself as an ignorant person, and he was furious, and he was about to draw his sword and cut Chen Deng, Liu Bei persuaded on the side: "The prime minister is a benevolent and virtuous person, and he should be righteous, not coerced. ”

Cao Cao saw that Liu Bei was reasonable, killing Chen Deng now would only make him infamous on his back, why not kill him by Lu Bu's hand, it is best to be refined into an undead by Lu Bu's demon, as soon as he thought of the undead, Cao Cao thought of the lifeless Xiahou Dun, and his heart was even more afraid.

Xu Chu outside the tent saw Chen Deng insulting Cao Cao, and wanted to take down Chen Deng, Cao Cao hurriedly rushed out to stop him: "Let him go, if he makes meritorious service, he will be ranked as the third duke, if he is defeated, he will be punished for both crimes!" ”

Chen Deng returned to the big tent and wrote a letter to Yin Li, asking Yin Li to choose a dangerous ambush, he followed Lu Bu when he set off in the middle of the night, Lu Bu was ambushed, so he followed and killed, and attacked Lu Bu on both sides.

The next night.

Cao Cao watched the fire in Lu County rise again, although he was prepared in his heart, he still had a burst of anger, Lu Bu was really hateful. The collected grain and grass were destroyed by fire again, although Cao Cao was angry, he was not very worried, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu were transporting grain and grass from Xiao Peimi's house.

It is said that Chen Dengling ordered 8,000 Guangling elite soldiers to pursue Lu Bu's army all the way north, and after chasing for most of the night, there was no one to see, and he was about to chase to Boyang Pass, and he was puzzled in his heart, I don't know if Lu Bu suspected that Yin Li had changed his route halfway.

Yin Li waited until the second half of the night, when a scout came to report, and a large army marched ahead, wearing Cao Bing's costume and waving a big banner with the word "Chen".

Yin Li was overjoyed when he heard this, and encouraged the soldiers: "This is Lu Bu's military division, Chen Gong is also, everyone fights up and kills thieves, Lu Bu loses Chen Gong like a tiger loses its minions, the great achievement is just in sight, what are you waiting for?" Kill! ”

Boyang Pass is the southwest barrier of Taishan County, the mountain is dangerous, Chen Deng pursued Lu Bu all the way, and there was no trace of Lu Bu, so he withdrew the scouts to pursue with all his might, and the team went to the edge of the cliff, only to see the torches shaking on the upper slope, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

"Demon Lu Bu get out." Chen Deng saw that it was an ambush, and new hatred and old hatred surged into his heart.

Chen Deng retreated to the middle of the soldiers and commanded the soldiers to counterattack, and his command was full of well-trained soldiers, although they were ambushed, they did not panic, and soon formed dozens of small formations that echoed each other, and could resist the soldiers rushing down the mountain.

The two sides waved the army to fight, until dawn only to find that they were killed, it turned out to be their own people, knowing that they were in Lu Bu's plan, Chen Deng's eight thousand elite battle losses into three thousand, did not dare to return to Cao Ying, afraid that Cao Cao would ask for guilt, and Yin Li plotted, went to Taishan County, and then returned to Guangling after Cao Cao retreated.

Cao Cao only got the news of Chen Deng's ambush at noon, and heard that Chen Deng did not dare to return to the camp and went to Taishan County, so he was going to divide his troops to arrest him, but was persuaded by Yu Ban, Cao Cao saw that Lu Bu was lost again, and his anger was on Chen Deng: "The order is to return to Xuchang and tomorrow, and then gather people to rebel, deprive Guangling Taishou, Fubo General and other positions, destroy their three clans, and invite people from all over the world to chase them together." ”

Liu Bei wanted to dissuade Cao Cao, but Cao Cao glared at him, he already had the intention of killing Liu Bei in his heart: "Liu Bei's traitor has a deep relationship with Chen Deng, and he intends to rebel with the thief and take it." ”

Guan Yu behind Liu Bei listened, his half-squinted eyes flashed, his hand pressed the hilt of the sword and wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble, Zhang Fei was about to jump out and stab Cao Cao to death with a sword, Liu Bei hurriedly pulled the two of them, got up and came to the middle of the lobby, knelt down, and cried: "I am the generation of Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan Jing, how can I seek the ancestral inheritance with the thief?" ”

Cao Cao saw that there was only Xu Chu beside him, and Guan Yu and Zhang Feiju were generals who could compete with Lu Bu, so they didn't dare to use force, so they gave up.

In the afternoon, the Dongguan County Commander sent an urgent report, saying that Lu Bu led the army south, Cao Cao did not know the truth for a while, and was afraid that he would fall for Lu Bu's trick of attacking the east and the west, so he did not move, and waited for the investigation to be clear before making a decision.

In the evening, the drums of Cao Cao's big tent sounded.

The generals under his command rushed to discuss the matter one after another, only to find that Cao Cao did not discuss the matter, but prepared a feast in the big tent.

The first place is not Guo Jia, but a man with a long beard fluttering in his first place, a hemp rope tied in his hair, a protruding forehead, his eyes are bright, and a man in a cloth shirt is holding a gourd in his hand pouring pills, with a simple and restrained temperament.

Seeing that the main generals and ministers of the Chinese army had arrived, Cao Cao pointed to the man and introduced it to everyone: "This is the immortal master Zuo Ci Zuo Yuanfang." ”

Cao Cao's generals saw that the old god Zuo Ci was sitting cross-legged in the first place, and next to him was Yang Hong, who had always been unpopular, Guo Jia was ranked third, and Xiahou Yuan saw it, and let out a heavy nasal voice in dissatisfaction.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Cao Cao ordered the banquet to be held.

After a while, all kinds of delicacies filled the lobby, Cao Cao took a look, found that there was no Wu Songjiang perch that he loved his favorite, and sighed: "Today's high meeting, cherish the shame and prepare slightly, the march is outside, and Wu Songjiang perch ears are missing." ”

Zuo Ci listened, looked up at Cao Cao and said, "This can be done." ”

"I wonder what Mr. can do?"

"The prime minister can order someone to fetch a copper plate and water."

Cao Cao, in accordance with Zuo Ci's request, ordered someone to bring a copper plate and water. Zuo Ci got up and put the water into the copper plate, and started fishing with a bamboo rod in the plate, and suddenly fell into a sea bass. The princes in the hall exclaimed in surprise.

When Cao Cao saw it, he clapped his hands happily and laughed: "Duyu is not enough to sit at the table, but can you get more?" ”

Zuo Ci didn't answer, and put the bamboo pole into the copper plate again and began to fish, and after a while, many big fish more than three feet long fell.

Yang Hong lost no time in getting up and praised: "Yuan Fang is very good, but Lu Bu can be called in a different place with a snap of his fingers." ”

Xu Chu behind Cao Cao heard this, and said disdainfully: "Fishing crooked techniques can also kill people?" ”

Zuo Ci didn't look at Xu Chu, and returned to his seat to sit down.

Cao Cao didn't know if Zuo Ci could subdue Lu Bu, and the 100,000 army would look at Zuo Ci's, so he asked, "I don't know what tricks Mr. has to subdue Lu Bu?" ”

When Zuo Ci saw Cao Cao's question, he didn't dare to hold it up, so he replied: "Poor Dao occasionally got three volumes of the Book of Heaven, called "Dunjia Book of Heaven". The name of the upper volume is 'Tian Dun', the middle volume is called 'Earth Escape', and the lower volume is called 'Human Escape'. The sky can soar clouds and cross the wind, and the ascension is too empty; The earth can pass through the mountains and stones; People can travel all over the world, hide their shapes and transform, fly swords and throw knives, take people's heads, and the ten-party array can subdue demons and monsters. ”

"Lu Bu can use magic to summon endless undead, and Sir may descend to him?"

"This..."Zuo Ci had never heard of a humane law so advanced that he summoned the undead, and he didn't know how to crack it for a while: "The poor Dao needs to see this Lu Bu to know how to subdue." I wonder who has seen the undead summoned by Lu Bu? ”

"We've all met," Xu Chu yelled dissatisfied.

"Why?"

"My brother Xiahou Dun was killed in battle more than ten days ago, and the day before yesterday, Lu Bu built a soul conjuring platform to recruit him, and my soldiers captured the undead turned by Xiahou Yuanrang, and I have carefully identified it, and there is no pretense."

"Take me to see the undead of Xiahoudun." When Zuo Ci heard this, he stood up happily and was about to pull Cao Cao to take him to see the ghost of Xiahoudun.

"Xiahou Yuanrang suddenly sobered up and told me that when Lu Bu summoned countless undead, he persuaded us to be careful, and then Lu Bu found out that he had been killed by demonic magic."

"Then only Poor Dao can check whether Lu Bu is a human or a demon in person."

"Send more scouts to find out Lu Bu's movements." Cao Cao commanded.
