Chapter 196, Sun Jian withdrew

With a "bang", something landed not far in front of Lao Tu.

"Meow-", at the same time, a bobcat meow came--it was Lu Zhanxue's cat meow hidden on the tree pole. Then, with a light effort, he leapt into the pitch-black bushes behind him.

The soldiers on patrol didn't even notice him. Elder Wu walked up with a torch to inspect what had just fallen to the ground. A few soldiers behind him scattered with torches, turning around to check for anything unusual.

"What is this?" Taking a closer look by the firelight, Lao Tu found an ordinary cloth bag resting on the ground in front of him. He raised his eyebrows, thrust the knife in his hand into the dirt, squatted down and picked up the cloth bag, turned it upside down, and poured out the contents.

"Bang", a boxy white object rolled to the ground.

The old man held a torch in his hand, leaned over to take a look, and saw that the thing had a lifelike flying dragon carved on his side, and immediately shocked: How could there be such a thing in this woods? Could it be that the wild cat just now? Stretched out his big hand to pick it up, let the person take the torch, he turned the thing over and over again: there are flying dragons engraved on all sides and above, and there are numbers engraved below: the jade seal of the country, ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity.

"Good, it's terrible." After reading it, he exclaimed.

"What's wrong, corny?" Someone asked.

"Let's go, let's go back. This time we have been favored by Heaven and are about to be sent. Lao Tu put the jade seal back in the cloth bag, stood up, and couldn't help but say excitedly.

"No more patrols?" Xiao Yang asked.

"Nope."

"Let's go back like this, aren't you afraid that General Huang will punish you again?"

"With this thing, he won't dare to punish it this time." Lao Tu raised the cloth bag in his hand, tied him to his belt, reached out and pulled out the big knife stuck in the ground, and returned the same way first.

"What's that, corny?" Another soldier asked.

"You don't understand it, pass on the jade seal of the country." "What did you just discover?" ”

"I didn't find anything, I heard a cat meow, but I didn't see a cat shadow."

"Hey, there's a black horse in the woods, can you see the cat? Unless you're also a cat or not. ”

……

The Allied garrison, a very open place in the south. The army of Sun Jian, the Taishou of Changsha, was stationed here. In a tent in the center that seems to be taller than the surroundings, Sun Jian, who has a tough body and strong limbs, and a mighty appearance, is standing in front of the oil lamp, holding the jade seal of the country.

Not long after, a soldier commander sent this thing. When he saw it, he was first shocked, then overjoyed, and rewarded the soldier commander.

The man who received the reward was the old man who had returned from patrolling in the woods, and he did not take it alone, but went out of the tent and went to distribute the reward with several of his men.

And Sun Jian immediately asked people to pass on the three capable generals Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang.

After a short time, the three of them walked inside.

"My lord, what do you command us to send us in the evening?" Huang Gai, who was about fifty years old, clasped his hands into fists and saluted.

"Come on, come on, come over to the three of you, and see what this is?" Sun Jian beckoned to them happily.

Huang Gai and Han Dang looked at an object about four inches round above his hand, and saw that the flying dragon above it was circling, opening its teeth and dancing its claws, which was very extraordinary. And after a cursory glance, Cheng Pu lost his color and shouted: "Heirloom jade seal? ”

"Virtue has good eyesight, this thing is the jade seal of the country." Sun Jian glanced at him with some surprise and nodded.

"How did the lord get it?" Cheng Pu pondered: What is wrong with not seeing the lord in Bai Yueli?

"If you don't believe it, we only got it a short time ago." Sun Jian smiled and said, "Before you came, a soldier captain came to report that he had found this thing while patrolling the woods. At that time, he only heard a cat meow, and then he saw something fall from a tree and fall not far in front of him......"

"The soldier commander mentioned by the lord should be an old man who has been whipped by me, and this guy will not come to see me after he has made meritorious service, how can this be reasonable." Huang Gai listened and thought to himself.

"In this way, it must be the heavens who favor the lord, so that the lord can get this thing." Han Dang thought for a moment and said.

"What does the righteous man think, tell me quickly." Sun Jian was overjoyed.

"Lord, think about it. The dark woods, the bobcat holding the jade seal, was obtained by the lord. Good omen also. The bobcat means the tiger, and the tiger is the king of the mountains and forests. The jade seal is also a national treasure, and has a reputation comparable to half of the country. To sum up, there is only one thing, that is, the lord may become the king of a country in the future. After Han Dang finished speaking, he swallowed his saliva: If the lord becomes the monarch in the future, won't I, Han Dang, become a great hero?

"......" Sun Jian heard this, with joy and sorrow, but did not speak.

Cheng Pu took a step forward and said: "According to legend, the jade used to carve the jade seal of the country is the king of Chu Wen who was said to be Bian He under Jing Mountain in the past. After it was broken, it really got jade. In the twenty-sixth year of Qin, the good work was made into a seal, and Li Si sealed the eight characters on it. In the twenty-eighth year, the first emperor patrolled to Dongting Lake. The wind and waves are strong, the boat will be capsized, and the jade seal will stop in the lake. In the thirty-sixth year, the first emperor patrolled to Huayin, and some people held seals to cover the road, and said to the followers: 'Hold this to return the ancestral dragon.' 'Words are gone, and this seal is returned to Qin. The following year, the First Emperor died. Later, Ziying presented the jade seal to Han Gaozu...... This jade has been lost many times and regained, gained and lost. Today, if you confer the title of lord, you will be divided into nine or five years. You can't stay here for a long time, you should go back to Jiangdong as soon as possible, don't try to make a big deal. ”

Sun Jian listened to Cheng Pu's words, raised his eyebrows, clasped his hands tightly and said, "This is exactly what I think in my heart." Ming said that the bento excused himself and returned. "It has been agreed that the secret sergeant should not leak it.

However, it was said that Lu Zhan started his light work, and walked through the black-lit woods like an ape, and after a while, he saw a faint fire in front of him—Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Zhang Ji were sitting around the bonfire.

Flying over and meeting them, Lu Zhan sat down in a relaxed mood, and said to them while stretching out his hands to bake the fire: "It's done, let's wait to see a good show." ”

This time, rather than that Lü Zhan had brought them to inquire about the Allied forces, it was better to say that Lü Zhan had regarded them as confidants and told them some confidential things.

"Did the boss run into an Allied sentry in the woods?" Zhang Ji asked incredulously, thinking: It was done so quickly, and the efficiency was too high, right?

……

Soon, a bright moon rose from the eastern sky, and the earth seemed to be draped in a boundless silver veil. Lu Zhan no longer stayed, and led the soldiers to return to the Tiger Prison Pass by the faint moonlight.

The next day, Sun Jian submitted a letter of resignation to Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, to the effect that he had a hidden physical illness and was inconvenient to lead the army to fight. Yuan Shao saw it and was shocked: Yesterday, Sun Wentai was still alive and well, why did he have a hidden illness after a night? (To be continued.) )
