When Cao Cao heard the shouts of the two of them, his originally tense heart was also relieved, and he shouted loudly: "Zihe (Cao Chun's words), Zhongkang, I'm here!" ”

Cao Chun and Xu Chu lost Cao Cao and led their subordinates to launch a carpet search in the forest, but there was no result, and they were already anxious.

Now when they heard Cao Cao's response from the woods in front of them, they were all overjoyed, and the tension in their hearts relaxed slightly.

"Quick, Sikong is ahead!" The two shouted to their men and led them forward.

The sun was already slightly westerly, and the afterglow of the setting sun was shining through the gaps in the leaves, and wisps of dust were flying with the sound of the horses' hooves.

Cao Chun and Xu Chu rushed into the forest, and when they saw Cao Cao standing safely in the clearing, they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Subsequently, the two saw the two tigers that died not far in front of Cao Cao, they were startled, and hurriedly looked at them, and found that the tigers were dead, and Cao Cao did not see any scars and bloodstains on his body, so they settled down.

Cao Chun and Xu Chufei dismounted, rushed to Cao Cao and knelt down quickly: "The subordinates are not well protected, please punish Sikong!" ”

Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, you don't have to blame yourself, today I was chasing the leopard, I was too excited to be separated from you, how can I blame you?" Hurry up! ”

Cao Chun didn't dare to get up, pointed to the tiger on the ground and said: "If it weren't for the late arrival of his subordinates, he would not have let Sikong be in danger, and his subordinates would not be able to escape the blame!" ”

Cao Cao nodded: "Speaking of which, it was really dangerous just now. I couldn't chase the leopard, but I met a tiger cub, and I wanted to shoot it, but I didn't expect to kill the tiger cub and attract a tigress! ”

"Thanks to Ziwen and his guards who arrived in time, they were not afraid of life and death, fought desperately, and killed the tigress, so that my life was saved!" Cao Cao remembered the scene just now, and he also had palpitations.

After Cao Chun and Xu Chu listened to Cao Cao's words, they noticed that Cao Zhang and Li Jin, who had become bloody people next to them.

Cao Chun said excitedly: "Ziwen, thanks to your timely appearance today, risking your life to protect Sikong, so that Sikong did not encounter danger, thank you!" ”

Cao Zhang waved his hand lightly: "Where does your uncle say, it is your duty to protect your father." It is my duty to protect my father as a son of man, and it is the principle of heaven, so how can I be worthy of thanks? ”

Xu Chu listened beside him, his eyes were red with emotion, and he said sincerely: "The son is so filial to Sikong, Xu Chu obeys, if he is sent in the future, Xu Chu will never give up!" ”

Cao Zhang knew that Xu Chu was extremely loyal to Cao Cao, and he was able to say this, which showed that his behavior of risking his life to protect Cao Cao today had convinced him and made him begin to turn his heart to himself.

Cao Zhang's heart was happy, indicating that Shang was still very calm: "General Zhongkang is serious. I am both my father's son and Sikong's vassal, and we will serve my father well together in the future! ”

"Yes!" Xu Chu responded loudly.

Cao Cao heard the conversation between the three of them, and his heart was even more relieved.

Cao Zhang is not only brave in martial arts, but also extremely filial to himself, and does not hesitate to risk death to protect each other.

What is even more commendable is that he speaks decently, knows how to be more measured, and protects the face of his subordinates, which is definitely the quality that a good monarch should have.

Cao Cao opened his mouth and said, "Okay, Zihe, hurry up and apply medicine to Ziwen and his guards to stop the bleeding, treat the wounds, and check the injuries!" ”

Cao Chun hurriedly agreed: "Yes!" ”

When they went out hunting, they would inevitably be injured by wild beasts, and they all accompanied them with wound medicine, and as soon as Cao Cao greeted him, he immediately ordered the soldiers to offer them and treat the wounds for Cao Zhang and Li Jin.

When the soldiers treated the wounds of the two, Cao Cao kept watching, full of worry and love, at this moment he was no longer a traitor who dominated the world and was full of power, but just a loving father who loved his son.

Cao Zhang felt Cao Cao's love, and his heart was also slightly warm.

At this moment, Cao Zhang could feel that Cao Cao's love for him was sincere.

All this shows that after today's events, his status in Cao Cao's heart has been further improved and stabilized......

After examination, both Li Yun and Cao Zhang's external injuries were not serious.

Although Cao Zhang was hit by a tiger's claw and vomited blood at that time, he was protected by armor, and his internal organs were not injured, which was also a blessing in misfortune.

After making sure that both of them were fine, Cao Cao calmed down and instructed Xu Chu to arrange for the tiger warriors to carry the carcasses of the two tigers, and then return to the altar on the periphery of Xu Tian's hunting ground together.

The sun had completely set, and a full moon rose into the air, sprinkling the moonlight onto the earth.

Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and the other teams of Cao clans and generals had already returned to the altar and waited.

Although he didn't wait for Wang Yue's reply, seeing that Cao Zhang had not returned for a long time, Cao Pi, Cao Zhen, and Cao Xiu still had unconcealable smiles on their faces.

In their hearts, the more the Sword God King made his move, Cao Zhang could not have a chance of survival.

But Cao Cao did not return for a long time, and Cao Chun, Xu Chu and others were nowhere to be found, which still surprised them.

Xiahou Ba and Xu Huang stood by the altar with their guards, they found that it was getting late, and thought that Cao Zhang and Li Jin had already returned to the altar first, so they took people back, but they found that there was no trace of the two of them, and they were very anxious.

Xiahou Ba wanted to take Xu Huang with him to look for it again, but at this time, it was completely dark, and the visibility in the forest was extremely poor, so it was simply unrealistic for dozens of them to search for a large area.

Fortunately, at this time, Cao Cao and others returned under the escort of Cao Chun and Xu Chu.

Xiahou Ba saw Cao Zhang and Li Jin who were covered in blood and followed Cao Cao at a glance.

He was so shocked that he didn't care about anything else, he quickly rushed to Cao Zhang, and asked with concern: "Ziwen, what's wrong with you?" ”

Cao Zhang, who was already weak at this time, waved his hand slightly, and introduced his experience in the simplest words.

Of course, he deliberately concealed the content of Wang Yue.

There is no evidence to prove who Wang Yue was instructed by, and it is meaningless to say it in public, but it is a surprise.

Now he just wants to go back to the mansion calmly first, tell Xu Shu what happened today, and listen to what good suggestions he has before making a decision.

After listening to Cao Zhang's words, Xiahou Ba was also nervous, so he could only stretch out his hand to support him, waiting for Cao Cao's lecture.

Cao Pi and the others were shocked when they saw that Cao Zhang actually came back safely, they couldn't imagine how they could miss in the name of Wang Yue's sword god!

Cao Cao faced everyone and announced loudly: "Today's hunting, I strayed into the deep forest and encountered a tiger, but fortunately, Ziwen arrived in time and fought hard to kill the tiger and save me!" ”

"Ziwen is brave, he has killed two tigers in a row, I think the champion of today's hunting should be him, everyone should undoubtedly discuss it, right?!"

When everyone heard that Cao Cao was in distress, they were already shocked, and they just begged Cao Cao to be okay and not blame them, they were already grateful to Dade, where did they still have the heart to fight for the first.

Cao Pi's heart was very unconvinced, he and Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu tried their best to kill countless beasts, birds, and a wild boar, thinking that they would definitely win the first place and achieve a win-win situation.

But now that Cao Zhang is not dead, he actually protects Cao Cao and kills two tigers and takes away the first, which is really unacceptable to his heart.

Cao Xiu understood Cao Pi's thoughts, and muttered in a low voice: "Ziwen killed the tiger to save Sikong, and his bravery is worthy of praise." It's just that this tiger shouldn't have been caught in his designated hunting area, right? If so, what is the point of dividing the region in the first place? ”
