Chapter 53: The Arm
Liu Bei has been 'wavering' for half his life, and now he is almost fifty years old. His wife died in the 'chaos' army, his son and son were hostages with Li Hui, and now the remaining tens of thousands of horses have been wiped out. In his own battle, he not only buried his men and horses, but also detained his military advisor and second brother Chaisang. has returned to the point of poverty before, what is this half of his life for?
Liu Bei cried for a long time: The third brother doesn't need to persuade me anymore, our brothers have been running 'waves' for half their lives over the years, they used to be young, but now they are not good, how old is the third brother?
Forty! Zhang Fei replied.
Liu Bei smiled: Yes! are all forty years old, and my brother is almost fifty, how many years of running are there, forget it! I also figured it out, I'm afraid all this is providence, since I met that Li Hui, everything has not gone well, maybe Li Hui was sent by God to make your brother suffer!
Sure enough, it's here! A voice outside the temple said loudly, and several horses were running quickly towards this direction. Zhang Fei picked up his spear and rushed out. When I saw it, my heart immediately cooled. Outside the temple 'gate' is a group of people who can't be provoked, at the front, Wen Chou Hengdao immediately looked at him, behind him Li Hui was in the center, Zhao Yun, Guo Jia, Yan Liang, Chen Dao, and Ma Zhong were on the left and right.
Liu Bei walked out of the temple 'gate' with the support of Ma Liang, Huang Zhong and others. Li Huixiao: You guys ran really fast enough, we chased you for a day to catch up.
Zhang Fei shouted angrily: What do you want?
Wen Chou: I heard that your martial arts are strong, let's compare the two of us today to see if you are good or I am good!
Grandpa is afraid that you won't make it! Zhang Fei took his dark horse and turned over.
The two of them set up in formation. Li Hui called: You two go to the distance, and I still have something to say with Emperor Liu's nephew, which will not affect our alliance's speech.
Wen Chou smiled: Zhang Laosan, are you fighting with me for five lilies?
Zhang Fei swung his spear: My brother is here, I can't believe you, so I will let you taste the taste of grandpa's Zhangba snake spear.
Liu Bei got out of the way and invited Li Hui into the house. In the ruined temple, everyone sat on the ground. Liu Bei and Li Hui faced each other, and they all withdrew from the palace. Li Hui looked at Liu Bei's appearance and was a little funny. I haven't seen him for such a long time, Liu Bei has gray hair on his sideburns, and the 'sinister' eyes in the past have become hazy.
Li Hui: I know that Emperor Liu's nephew has now reached the point of exhaustion, if Emperor Liu's nephew is willing to cooperate with me, I am willing to live with Emperor Liu's nephew!
Liu Bei looked at Li Hui for a long time: What conditions! I know that General Li never does anything to suffer losses!
Hahaha\\ Li Hui smiled: Liu Huang's nephew still speaks so sharply, well, I'll just say it directly, I want Zhang Fei!
Third brother! Liu Bei was stunned: Do you want my third brother to follow you?
Li Hui nodded: Among your brothers, I tell you the truth, you are too hypocritical and 'insidious', Guan Yu is too arrogant, only Zhang Fei is a 'sexual' person, and he is very temperamental to me, if Liu Huang's nephew is willing to endure the pain and cut his love, I will use Yizhou in exchange!
Liu Bei bowed his head and was silent, deep down in his heart he was doing a 'fierce' ideological struggle, after a long stick of incense, Liu Bei's originally rickety body slowly swelled, his collapsed waist began to become straight, and his fists clenched: I still have one condition!
Say! Li Hui smiled slightly.
Will General Lee be able to give my child back to me? Liu Bei looked at Li Hui and said.
Li Hui laughed: Does Emperor Liu's nephew think that child still recognizes you as a father? Only Yizhou, what kind of 'female' person doesn't have it, how many children don't, if Liu Huang's nephew is not, I will give it to you, but Liu Huang's nephew still thinks clearly, now that the child is more than five years old, how much can he remember some things, back to Liu Huang's nephew, will Liu Huang's nephew rest assured?
Liu Bei fell into deep thought again. Li Hui: So be it! If our conditions are met, I will go to Chaisang to pick up your military advisor Zhuge Liang and second brother Guan Yu, this deal is very cost-effective, Liu Huang's nephew exchanged a Zhang Fei for Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang and a huge Yizhou, you have already taken advantage.
Li Hui left the broken temple, went out of the 'door' just glanced at Zhang Fei, smiled slightly, and left with his own people. Liu Bei sat in the main hall. Zhang Fei rushed in and asked, "Big brother, what did you and Li Hui say?"
Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei and choked up: Third brother, eldest brother is sorry for you, you can forgive eldest brother!
Zhang Fei was inexplicable: Big brother, what happened? You're talking!
Liu Bei stopped crying and told Zhang Fei the conditions he had reached with Li Hui. Zhang Fei roared like five thunderbolts: Big brother, why is this? Why?
Liu Bei sobbed: Third brother, the eldest brother has no choice, it's all because the eldest brother is confused for a while, you can forgive the eldest brother!
Zhang Fei cried and shouted with Liu Bei for a long time, feeling that it was useless. Wiped away his tears and silently stepped aside. Ma Liang and Huang Zhong heard clearly beside them. The hearts of the two were also flooded with bursts of 'waves'. Ma Liang was thinking, is the lord chosen by Jingzhou Siyin for the Jingzhou scholars really the kind of lord who is benevolent and righteous for the people? Huang Zhong was also wondering, is it more wrong to take refuge in Liu Bei than to follow Han Xuan?
Silence, deathly silence, terrible silence in the broken temple. The high idol looked at a few people with ghosts in their hearts with a smile, and their faces were kind and unshocked, as if they had seen through everything in the world, and had reached a point where they were not sad or happy.
Zhang Fei stood up, walked to Liu Bei, and knelt down on his knees: Big brother, I will call you big brother at the end, from now on you and I may never meet again, I know that our brother has been running for half a lifetime and has achieved nothing, this is your last chance, since I Zhang Fei has followed the eldest brother, I hope that the eldest brother will no longer beg so quietly one day, and I will fulfill you this opportunity!
As he spoke, Zhang Fei kowtowed three times to Liu Bei on the ground, and then stood up: Big brother, take care, Zhang Fei is gone!
Third brother! Liu Bei shouted loudly. Zhang Fei didn't know how to do it, got on his own war horse, put away the spear, and hugged Ma Liang and Huang Zhong: The two of you are tired, take care of it before my second brother comes back\\The second half of the sentence was not finished, this stout man was already in tears, and he couldn't say anything anymore when he choked up.
Zhang Fei caught up with Li Hui on his horse, his face was cold, and asked: What do you say?
Li Hui laughed: Only General Zhang will not break his promise, and I, Li Hui, will never break my word!
Good! Only you can fulfill the conditions you promised my eldest brother, and my life Zhang Fei is yours! Zhang Fei dismounted and kowtowed to Li Hui, didn't say anything else, got up and got on the horse, and followed Li Hui away. Before leaving, he glanced back in the direction of the ruined temple.
