Ma Fan looked at the world's first swordsman in front of him, Cao Pi's swordsmanship, who succeeded Wang Yue in later generations, and found that his face was really sincere, and he seemed to really care about himself, so he was suddenly a little surprised, and said secretly: "Do I really have such a friendship with you?"

However, Ma Fan didn't break anything, just hugged his fists and said: "Since that's the case, thank you Brother Shi, please lead the way." ”

Shi A immediately led the way ahead, Ma Fan was also a master of the arts, bold and not afraid of ambushes, and followed Shi A into some small alleys with Leng Yumo.

After turning a few corners, Shi Ah took Ma Fan and Leng Yumo to the door of a tavern.

Shi A smiled and said: "This tavern is a place I often come to, some are difficult to find and the environment is not very good, but their wine and food are very good, better than those in the big restaurants, and few people come here, why don't we sit down here and have some wine and food, and talk slowly." ”

Ma Fan looked at the somewhat deserted dilapidated shop, nodded and said, "Listen to Brother Shi!"

As soon as he entered the store, Ma Fan found that the store was on the first floor, with four tables and a small door at the back, which might lead to the kitchen, and there was no one in the lobby, so Shi A said loudly: "Boss, get some wine and food!"

Saying that, Shi Ah took Ma Fan and the two to find a table and sit down, but they seemed to be very familiar with this shop.

"It turns out to be Brother Shi, you wait a minute, the wine and food will arrive soon. Soon, a bearded man in his forties walked out, saw a few people smiled and said hello, and quickly went to the back.

After the boss entered, Shi A immediately asked: "Why did Brother Ma Fan come to Luoyang City, are you here to do something?" It is too dangerous for you to walk on the street like this, brother, I still have some face here, you are not ordinary to tell you what you want to do, maybe it can help you." ”

Ma Fan said: "It's not a thing, it's just that I have been living in Luoyang City recently, and I have nothing to do, so I came out to take a walk, speaking of which, I was still thinking about going to see Master Wang Yue that day, but I didn't expect to meet my brother first." ”

When Shi Ah heard this, he also noticed some troops, so he asked, "Has the brother already revoked the wanted notice of the imperial court through what means?"

Ma Fan said: "Well, the imperial court will not want me for a while." ”

Shi Adao: "Then where do you live now, if you don't dislike it, go to live with me, although I'm not very good, but it's still spacious enough, and it should be more comfortable than living in a restaurant outside." ”

Ma Fan looked at Shi A's sincere face, and couldn't help but be a little unsure whether this person was really such an enthusiastic person or a person who was directly treacherous to the extreme, if it was a treacherous person, he could do it to such an extent, so that people could not see any flaws, but it was not easy.

Ma Fan then said: "This is no need, I now live in General Dong Zhuo's mansion, and I live well." ”

Shi A said in surprise: "It turns out that brother, you are now working under Dong Zhuo, no wonder you dare to walk so swaggering in Luoyang City." Although it is a little inappropriate to say this today, my brother still has to say that Dong Zhuo is not the master, and it is better for my brother to leave as soon as possible, so as not to lose his reputation and give his life in vain. ”

Ma Fan smiled and said, "Brother Xiexie reminds!"

Shi A thought that Ma Fan didn't listen, so he lowered his voice a little and said: "Brother, I have some friends everywhere, I heard some rumors, since Dong Zhuo abolished the young emperor and established Queen Chenliu, the princes everywhere are recruiting troops and horses, practicing all day long, and secretly contacting closely, it seems that it will not be long before Dong Zhuo will use troops." ”

Speaking of this, Shi Adao: "Although Dong Zhuo has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and there are tens of thousands of iron horsemen, Shili is huge, but after Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he was overbearing all day long, which made people panic, and the abolished emperor lost the hearts of the people. Even if it can run rampant for a while, it will definitely not last long, and when the army of the princes of the Quartet arrives, they will definitely be killed and wiped out. ...,

Brother will only be implicated by following him, speaking of my teacher also wants to be an official and wants to go crazy, I have not listened to many persuasions, and now I actually give gifts to Dong Zhuo, I want to ask for an official position, and I am also worried about my brother these days. ”

Ma Fan sighed: "Oh! It turns out that the number one swordsman in the world is such a person, but it is not worth it for my teacher to lose at the hands of such people!"

Hearing Ma Fan's sigh, Shi Ah remembered that he had said it for a long time, but he didn't even remember that the teacher on the other side died at the hands of his teacher, and he didn't know if people wanted to seek revenge.

Ma Fan knew from Shi A's persuasion to leave Dong Zhuo just now, but this person was a warm-hearted person, no one in this era would know the direction of history like Ma Fan, Dong Zhuo was powerful after all, even if the princes joined forces, they might not be able to defeat him. If it was an ordinary person, he would not persuade Ma Fan to leave Dong Zhuo at this time, because this seemed to be a very stupid thing.

Especially Ma Fan and Wang Yue still have some grudges, ordinary people will only think that Master Shi and his apprentice want to kill Ma Fan, but Ma Fan's words by Dong Zhuo's side are not easy to harm him, so he will be so persuasive.

But Ma Fan knew that Shi A was really for his own good, and seeing that the person who was originally more bold and had never broken off suddenly quieted down, Ma Fan suddenly guessed what Shi A was thinking, so he said: "Brother Shi, don't worry, although it is very simple for me to avenge the teacher now, I don't even need to do it myself, tell General Dong Zhuo, maybe you will all fall to the ground."

But I won't do this, the teacher and Wang Yue are fair swordsmen, and if I avenge him, it will belittle his old man's martial virtues.

What the eldest brother said just now is all good words, but I don't have a place to go for a while, it's better to have Dong Zhuo's protection than to go somewhere else, so I may still be by Dong Zhuo's side for a while, if there is really something, I will definitely leave, and I will definitely not accompany Dong Zhuo to ruin my reputation and life. ”

Shi Adao: "Since my brother doesn't treat me as an enemy and recognizes me as a big brother, then I won't say anything else, if my brother encounters any difficulties in the future, just come to me, I know some people from the three religions and nine streams in Luoyang City, and I also have some friends in other states of Dahan, maybe I can still solve some small troubles for my brother."

In fact, just now my brother said that my teacher is the number one swordsman in the world, but it was Master Tong who won the competition that day, but they fought for several days, and the consumption was too great, after all, my teacher was younger so he survived, but Master Tong left. ”

Ma Fan said: "This is also a win-win situation, the teacher won the false name of the first sword in the world as he wished, and the teacher left, no one competed for the title, and the first sword in the world continued to be maintained by Wang Yue." I don't know where the teacher is buried, so I'll pay homage another day. ”

Shi Adao: "Just bury it in Beibi Mountain, I'll take you there when you're free another day." ”
