Chapter 237: "Shark" Hand Hand Haunted, Lan!
Like the history he knew in the original world, Shu and Wu joined forces to resist Wei, and after the Battle of Chibi, a situation of three kingdoms was formed.
But......
Lu Yu looked around again, but he could still only see a desolate scene, full of despair and horror, which made people a little depressed.
"What happened to cause such a drastic change in Weidi?"
If it was just a battle of Chibi, how could it be possible for the most powerful Wei Land to end up in such a mess, and even the residents here began to flee with their things one after another.
Behind the ruins and wolf smoke, decay and fear, Lu Yu seemed to smell a smell of conspiracy.
"Excuse me, what's going on here?"
Lu Yu immediately picked a lucky passer-by, stabilized his trembling shoulders, and asked.
Wei ...... King Wei, he's collecting everyone's blood! β
The passer-by was almost so frightened that he couldn't speak, and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he had been greatly frightened.
"Let me go! If you don't hurry, everyone will die! β
It seemed that they were about to cry, and the passers-by struggled to break free from Lu Yu's hands and ran away without looking back.
"Cao Cao...... Collecting blood? β
Ying Ting's sword eyebrows were twisted, and Lu Yu naturally knew that King Wei was Cao Cao, but he didn't know what the purpose of collecting blood was.
However, looking at Wei Di's embarrassed appearance, I am afraid that it has something to do with Cao Cao's purpose.
"Forget it, it's okay to take a look."
The look of fear on the refugee's face aroused the blood flowing in Lu Yu's heart, although what happened in Wei Di had nothing to do with him, but he couldn't sit idly by and watch those innocent people.
As a result, Lu Yu explored the matter of Cao Cao's continuous collection of civilian blood in Wei Di, and at the same time continued to go deeper towards the center of Wei Diββββ Wei Capital.
......
"Bang ββββ"
The wooden door on the verge of decay was kicked open by the soldiers without warning, and the civilians who were packing their luggage and planning to go to Shu showed a panicked look.
"You ...... What do you want to do?! β
"In the past, you ate the grain of Weidi, lived in the house of Weidi, and enjoyed the protection of the King of Wei! Now, it's time for you to contribute! β
The soldier was menacing, his eyes flashing with a sharp cold light, like a spear in his hand, ruthless.
The commoners let out a wail of almost despair, it seems that the words that had spread all over Wei before, and were called "rumors" by the King of Wei, turned out to be true!
The so-called "rumor" is that Cao Cao, the king of Wei, established some kind of transaction between Xu Fu, the king of the blood clan, and became a blood clan, and after the defeat in the Battle of Chibi, he began to continuously collect the blood of life from among the people of Weidi!
I knew that I should have left this place with those who had already left the country, but now the last way out has been blocked, and only despair remains.
"It is the three of you who are fortunate to be the cornerstone of the road to becoming the king of Wei and achieving the kingship!"
The soldier had obviously been brainwashed by Cao Cao, and his eyes had already become cloudy, and there was a dangerous flood of blood.
Between the desperate gazes of the civilians, sharp spears were about to pierce their bodies.
However, in that brief moment of life and death, the spear did not touch the fragile body, but was blocked by another sharp metal that erupted into a sonorous sound.
"Who?!"
The soldier was surprised, but no one responded to them, and the only answer was the cold and swift figure like a sharkββββ cold blade pursued continuously, mercilessly slitting the soldier's throat.
"Your lives have no value."
Blue streamers dancing in the wind. The figure of the killer, proud and lonely, appeared in the eyes of civilians with the fallen corpse.
"Let's go."
The killer said coldly, like an emotionless machine, and at the same time withdrew the two sharp blades in his hand to his waist.
"Thank you!"
At first, the civilian naturally felt the majestic killing intent on the killer's body, as well as the strong power of the demonic path, but he didn't expect that he not only saved himself, but also let himself go.
It wasn't until the civilians had left that the killer pulled down the thick scarf and revealed his face.
Although the cold pupils were filled with a shuddering killing intent, behind the ruthlessness, there was a faint tenderness.
"Wen Ji, I'm here......"
Once again, he came to the land where he once stayed, and it was also the place where he served the former lord, and in the eyes of the killer, there was a little more nostalgia and a trace of tenderness.
Tenderness is to the innocent little girl in memory, she is the person she deserves to protect with her life.
Perhaps, she may have thought she was dead, dead on a sailboat in the setting sun.
This is also an unreparable regret in the killer's heart, when he made up his mind to guard her no matter what, but under the attack of the former lord and his men, he was on the verge of death.
When I woke up, I was no longer on the sailboat that I had fled with the little girl, but in a strange room.
The one who saved himself was a yellow-robed Taoist priest he didn't know, and his smile was as strange as his identity.
But, no matter what, when Lan recovered from his injuries, he kept inquiring about the whereabouts of the little girl, that is, Cai Wenji, but learned that she had become Cao Cao's righteous daughter.
This is absolutely impossible, Cao Cao is Cai Wenji's father-killing enemy, how could Cai Wenji recognize a thief as his father?
Among them, there must be something wrong.
So, the killer returned to Weidi, not only to wash away the shame of the past, but also to save Cai Wenji from Cao Cao's clutches.
"That little girl, she has the ability to read the book of heaven...... Moreover, her father had learned the secret of the miracle, and perhaps, this secret was also hidden in the little girl's body. β
"There are too many things on her body that King Wei wants to know, so isn't it more cost-effective to accept her as a righteous daughter and let her help herself, who is the enemy of killing her father, to accomplish some things than killing her?"
The back of the yellow-robed Taoist priest is a little illusory, but his words are vivid, and his voice is heartfelt.
"Wen Ji, I will definitely rescue you, I will."
The killer silently stroked her chest, the bright flower, the color she had once left for herself, the only color.
"Cao Cao...... 'shark' hand has already appeared, my name is Lan, and I swear with my life, this time I will definitely take your head!"
Clenching the blade in his hand tightly, Lan's eyes were full of the consciousness of killing.
"Someone is coming......"
Just as Lan walked towards the door, the keen perception from the killer sensed an extremely strong force.
