No matter how many vicissitudes you have experienced, how many cruel betrayals you have seen, how cold and strong you are.

There must be a name, or a face in the depths of memory.

It is not easy to touch, but once you think about it, you can dream back to being a teenager.

"When I talk to you, how can I not speak?" When the woman saw Cao Cao looking at her in a daze, she became more and more annoyed.

Cao Cao came back to his senses and smiled slightly, his not handsome face was like a spring breeze, just like when he was in his prime.

This smile was reflected in her eyes, and the woman's heart was full of suspicion: "Could it be that this person is an old acquaintance?" ”

But when I looked closely, I was not impressed.

Cao Cao lowered his head, and when he looked up again, there was one less overlapping figure.

sighed slightly, although the wonderful temperament of that body was very similar, she was not her after all.

I remember that when I redeemed Zhao Ji, I was also the age of the young woman in front of me.

But the tempering of wind and frost and the destruction of her heart have long engraved the pain deeply in her life.

Cao Cao never forgot that on the day she returned from thousands of miles away, the carriage stopped, and a familiar and unfamiliar face, a little panicked and a little eager, leaned out, blankly swept around, and also passed over his face, but then as if sensing something, quickly turned back to his gaze.

In the crowd, two people who have been separated for more than ten years look at each other quietly, and then smile.

Cao Cao had never seen such a bright and pathetic smile, reverberating and thrilling.

That is the rare beauty of a woman who has trekked through the real hell, but has not been conquered by hell, enough to penetrate the years and people's hearts.

Looking at the young woman in front of her, she was shallow and sorrowful, her appearance was white and delicate, and seriously speaking, it was somewhat similar to when Zhao Ji was first widowed.

The general feelings are lonely, and the general depression is unhappy.

Thinking about it at this moment, Zhao Ji at that time would never have thought that the real sea of suffering in the world was boundless and bottomless.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao's heart ached, and there was a trace of imperceptible tenderness in his eyes.

He took a deep breath and looked at each other's eyes frankly: "In Xia Wuzhi, I would like to ask for the name of my wife." ”

The young woman's eyes couldn't help but widen, as if she was surprised by the other party's rudeness, but when she looked at it carefully, the other party's eyes and faces, how could there be any evil thoughts?

There is only a faint concern for unknown reasons, and a trace of hidden regret.

This extremely subtle emotion, if it weren't for a woman like her who was so delicate and delicate, it would be difficult to see it from the side.

"Concubine Li Qingzhao...... It is Zhao Mingcheng's wife. ”

Perhaps touched by that concern, the young woman said her name like a god, but then she was shocked and hurriedly added another sentence, indicating her identity as a married woman.

Cao Cao raised his face and smiled, this smile did not regain its previous purity and warmth, but it did not have an indescribable domineering.

Wu remembered. In the future, if there are any difficulties that cannot be passed, send someone to the Erlongshan Ward. The sky is falling, and Wu will also bear it for you. ”

Brainless and brainless to throw out a hard promise, Cao Cao turned around and left.

Ou Peng and Luan Tingyu drove Li Qingzhao's carriage and went out.

Li Qingzhao subconsciously followed to the door, frowned and looked at the back in front of her, only feeling that the other party was strange, but with a natural contempt, such a person had never been seen in the first half of her life.

Cao Cao didn't think much about it, in his opinion, such a wonderful woman should never be destroyed by the world. It was a pity that she couldn't protect Cai Zhaoji in her previous life, but if this woman asked him in this life, she would protect her.

Luan Tingyu turned around a few times, thinking that his brother's methods today are very unusual and comparable, yes, I am afraid that this woman is older and does not like his brother.

Several people bought a few bedding from the doctor, put them in the carriage thickly, carefully carried Ma Lin inside, came to the door, waited for Chao Gai and others to gather, beat gongs and drums and left Qingzhou City, and escorted a car to capture and surrender the army back to Erlong Mountain.

In the evening, the heroes gathered in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, their expressions were quite excited, and Wu Yong said with a smile: "Today's harvest is very rich!" It's enough to think about it for a long time, and how to act now, please ask my brother to show me. ”

Cao Cao gathered his mind, pondered for a moment, and said: "King Chao Tianwang is the lord of Liangshan Mountain, and he can't leave for a long time, so he will take people back to the mountain, and stay the two brothers Lin Chong and Hua Rong, lead a thousand people to help, and Qin Ming 2,000 people, all stationed in Erlong Mountain, counting the more than 1,000 officers and soldiers captured in Qingzhou, and the people and horses of Erlong Mountain and Taohua Mountain, there are also 6,000 people, which is more than enough to attack the state capital. ”

Chao Gai nodded and said, "In this case, I will go back first, use it at any time, and then bring people to help." ”

Cao Cao hugged his fists and thanked him, and said: "Now the unpredictable is only Zongze." happened to take Sun Li, his city was already half empty, so I asked Teacher Luan, Shi Xiu, Mu Hong, and Niu Gao to accompany me to Dengzhou, and I would be sentenced by Zongtong for a while. Qin Ming, Deng Fei, Xiang Chong, and Li Gon, four brothers, led 1,000 men and horses to hide troops outside the city, and if there was an opportunity, they would take advantage of the situation to take him to Dengzhou. Then advance from east to west, and there will be no worries. ”

When everyone heard this, they each received their orders, and suddenly Zhou Tong got up and said: "Brother, the younger brother has been in Dengzhou for a few years in the past, and he is familiar with the road geography. ”

Cao Cao said: "It couldn't be better. ”

Early the next morning, Chao Gai led Tang Bin, Liu Tang, Kong Ming, and Kong Liang, divided a part of the money and grain, led 2,000 soldiers and horses to return, and the rest of the men and horses were placed up and down Erlong Mountain. Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Hu Yanzhuo, and others were all from the official army and knew military law well, so they scattered the captured officers and soldiers into the team, and did not mention the daily drills.

As for Sun Li, he was recognized by Luan Tingyu as his own junior brother, and after some persuasion, he still refused to surrender, and it was not easy to kill him, so he was only temporarily detained on the mountain, looking at Luan Tingyu's face, but he was not restricted from moving around, and he was allowed to watch the military exercises on weekdays.

Sun Li is also obedient, seeing that the masters of Erlong Mountain are like clouds, he can't have the intention of escaping, so he can only get by.

Cao Cao took Luan Tingyu and the other five to go first, and Qin Ming led a thousand troops to divide into dozens of teams, and then Xiaoxing stayed overnight, only walking along the seaside.

Dengzhou has jurisdiction over Penglai, Huangxian, Muping, Wendeng and other four counties, the state is located in Penglai County, on the first day of October, Cao Cao and his party are about to Penglai, suddenly see a good hill on the side of the road, covering a vast area, full of yellow leaves on the mountain, and its height is also one or two hundred meters.

Cao Cao's heart moved, and he pointed and said: "If there are a thousand soldiers and horses hidden here, the gods and ghosts don't know, and it's not far from the county." ”

Zhou Tong looked at it and explained: "Brother, this place is called Dengyun Mountain, which is only more than 20 miles away from the county seat, and it is indeed a place to hide soldiers. ”

Cao Cao said: "Go in and have a look." ”

The six of them rode their horses into the forest, and after a journey, Niu Gao had sharp eyes, and suddenly lifted his iron shovel and pointed to a place and said: "There are people watching me and others, and the younger brother will bring him." ”

He was about to rush over to get someone, when he suddenly heard a gong sound, eighty or ninety men, one after another, ran out from behind the mountain, each holding a large shield made of wood in his hand, and the other hand holding some single knives and short axes.

Niu Gao smiled: "What's the use of this? If you don't take up your spear, you just rush your horse, and you won't all be scattered. ”

Shi Xiu looked around and shouted: "You dry lepers, don't go forward to die, just ask your leaders to come out and speak." ”

When the words fell, someone in the forest answered: "What a big breath! One, two, three, four, five, six, hehe, six birdmen, dare to beat me to climb Cloud Mountain? What about the goddess bow? Hiding her head and revealing her tail, what kind of bird is she! ”

Cao Cao and the others laughed when they heard this, and the person who spoke only heard his voice and did not see him, but said that he was not hiding his head and showing his tail.

About listening to the laughter, behind a big tree, someone probed his brain and looked at it for a while, and stood up tentatively, hunched his waist and shrunk his head, looking at the situation, he could retract at any time, and shouted: "Grandpa is out!" What about the goddess bow? ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he knew that there must be a misunderstanding, and said with a smile: "We don't know what Lu Shengong is, we are guests from afar, and we love the autumn scenery of this mountain, so I came in to take a closer look." ”

When the man heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his waist, and was not small, but he had thin eyebrows and small eyes, and shouted: "Come out, nephew, you are not in the same group as the goddess bow." ”

Immediately after the tree, another man came out, with a plate axe in his hand, and he was also quite tall, with a collapsed nose and mung bean eyes, and a large sarcoma at the back of his head, as if he had a single horn, which was very strange.

The two laughed and said: "It has not been opened for several days, but today there is food and clothing delivered to you." Da Ra walked three feet in front of Cao Cao and the others, tilted his head with thin eyebrows, and said loudly: "Bah! I opened the bird road, I planted the bird tree, you wait to pass from now on, and leave a pen to buy road wealth! ”

Shi Xiu smiled, hugged his fists and said: "It turned out to be a good man in the green forest, I would like to ask for a name!" ”

The small-eyed man sneered again and again: "Want to climb the relationship? Friendship? It's useless! To tell you the truth, grandpa has lost nothing in the past few days, and he has never opened, and today is my father's request, and I also want to leave a penny. ”

Shi Xiu listened and said: "That's it, since you don't want to report by name, the rules of the rivers and lakes, let's see the real chapter under your hands." ”

As he spoke, he jumped off the horse and picked up the sword in his hand.

Niu Gao hurriedly shouted: "Brother, you have made too many contributions, let the younger brother fight this battle." He quickly climbed off the horse, carried two maces, and shouted, "Bah! The old man is the famous black wind tiger Niu Gao, since you hide your head and show your tail, you have to be the soul of the old man's unjust and die. ”

After that, take a big stride up and smash it with a swing.

When the thin-eyed man saw that he was coming fiercely, he hurriedly twitched his waist, but he pulled out a stick, jumped to the side, flashed the wedge, picked up the stick and swept it over.

Niu Gao saw that his stick was not fast, he was not in a hurry, and the iron shovel was erected to block it, but he made a mistake, the stick smashed on the mace, and it was broken, snap! still smashed on Niu Gao's back, hit and fell forward two or three steps, almost falling.

This time it came down suddenly, and Cao Cao and the others all "pouted" in unison.

The opponent is unforgiving, with a stick in his hand, hitting vertically, pumping obliquely, and sweeping horizontally.

After all, it was Luan Tingyu who was well-informed, recognized for a moment, and shouted: "His instrument is called the Flying Tiger Stick with a Waist, so that the fine vines are wrapped around the knot sticks one by one, soaked in oil first, and then exposed to the sun, and can only be made after several years. ”

After he finished his high-minded remarks, Niu Gao received seven or eight more sticks.

Fortunately, he was wearing armor, his skin and flesh were thick, and he was not injured, but he was beaten like a gong and drum, and he felt embarrassed, and said angrily: "If you say the last sentence directly, I will take a few fewer blows, who will know that he is a pain stick and an itchy stick." ”

After that, the iron shovel was struck on the end of the stick, and the stick bounced back.

When Niu Gao saw that it worked, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and shouted: "Look what tricks you have in this guy." "The shovel went straight up and down.

The big man's stick method is only mediocre, and he is all fierce with the Qimen blade in his hand, and now that Niu Gao knows the trick, he is not an opponent, and shouts "Stop, I have something to say!" "Leap back and jump out of the warband.

Pointing at Luan Tingyu and said: "You guys have seen and heard a lot, and there are few people on the rivers and lakes of my waist-bending flying tiger stick, it's hard for you to know, it must not be an ordinary person, why not leave a name?" ”

Mu Hong mocked him and said, "What's the use of keeping a name or not?" Anyway, when my father comes, I want to rob him. ”

The big man raised his eyebrows, and said righteously: "This doesn't make sense, and my father doesn't know the origin of my blade, how can he generalize." ”

Zhou Tong saw this guy messing around, and suddenly his spirits were lifted, and he said: "Fart, you stick, sometimes soft and sometimes hard, must be a family heirloom." If your father had not, how could he have begotten you? ”

Dahan gasped when he heard this, revealing a hero's look of cherishing the hero, and solemnly clenched his fists and said: "The hero's words are extraordinary, and he should also leave a name." ”

Zhou Tong said proudly: "I am the beautiful man of Qingzhou Taohua Mountain, Zhou Tong who is called 'Little Overlord' by the people of the rivers and lakes!" ”

The big man shook his head: "What is the name of the bird, I haven't heard of it." ”

Zhou Tong was furious, but he knew that this man was deliberately teasing him, and was about to ridicule him, but Luan Tingyu was too lazy to talk nonsense, and hugged his fists and said: "Luan Tingyu under the 'iron rod', have you heard of it?"

Dahan was slightly shocked and said: "Unexpectedly, it was Brother Luan Tingyu Luan in front of him, and the younger brother was offended." Legend in the rivers and lakes, didn't Brother Luan follow Yanggu Wu Mengde? How did you get to my little brother? ”

Luan Tingyu said, "Oh, isn't this my brother, 'Wu Mengde' Martial Artist!" ”

The big man became more and more surprised, looked at Cao Cao and said, "Ah, is Zunjia really the eldest brother of Wu Zhiwu?" ”

Cao Cao smiled: "It's not a luxury character, is there anyone who can't pretend to be it?" I'm the only one who is Wu Zhi. ”

When the big man heard this, he exclaimed: "My lord! As soon as the stick was thrown, he pushed the gold mountain and the jade pillar to bow down, hugged his hands above his head and said: "Xiao Ke is ignorant, offending my brother Huwei, I hope that my brother will forgive my sins." ”

The man with a tumor on his head was also startled when he heard this, and he stepped forward, knelt down beside his companion, and said: "If I didn't mean to offend, if I had known that Brother Wu was coming, my uncle and I would have gone to the border of Dengzhou to wait, and then we would have seen sincerity." ”

Cao Cao dismounted and helped the two of them up: "Those who don't know are not guilty, now the names and surnames of the two heroes, can you tell them?" ”

The two frowned and said: "Brother don't make fun of me, I am two uncles and nephews, because of the same age, since I was a child, I have been in a mess since I was a child, the villain Zou Yuan, since I know things, I begged for food and clothing in the forest of Dengyun Mountain, people call me 'out of the forest dragon', this is my nephew Zou Run, because of this tumor, people call him 'unicorn dragon'." ”

Cao Cao said: "You are a local clan, then it is no better, don't hide it from the two, there is a matter of asking for help in the next matter......

Before he could say anything about borrowing the mountain and hiding soldiers, suddenly a crisp voice sounded: "Ah, did you make a shield against me!" Hey, I even found a new helper! Hmph, you thought this would scare me the 'Goddess Bow'"?

There are sub-teachings: Zou Yuan Zou Run is a double dragon, and the plate axe is arrogant and the tiger is a hero. The man hides in a wooden shield, and the daughter pulls a bow on a horse.

Let's write it from another angle, it was really too fast before, and I think there is a problem myself.
