Liu Bei and I conspired to break away from Yuan Shao, and it is indeed a bit immoral when you think about it. But in troubled times, there is always a word "art" that cannot escape. In the past, when the Seven Kingdoms were fighting for hegemony, didn't Su Qin Zhangyi, the two disciples of the Zongheng family, achieve the great cause of the Qin State in this way?

Besides, although Yuan Shaozui called me brother, I know that he never regarded me as a brother. He is duplicitous, and he can't be compared with Cao Cao.

After camping in Wuchao, two months have passed suddenly. In the past few days, the main daily work is to count the grain and grass, and assign grain transport officers to transport the daily grain and grass to the front line of Guandu. According to the scout's report, in the past few days, the two armies of Yuan and Cao have fought several battles, but they are all evenly divided, and it is an undefeated situation.

The battle of wits and courage between the two armies was also very exciting.

First, Yuan Shao built a dirt slope in front of Cao Cao's village and deployed archers to shoot arrows at Cao Ying, but Cao Cao skillfully used the "stone cart" to bounce stones and smash the archers, breaking Yuan Shao's strategy; But Cao Cao dug up a long trench outside the stockade, which made Yuan Shao's tunnel tactics empty again.

The two sides came and went, and it was August.

In August, the weather was hot and dry. That night, I was filling a large wooden barrel with water and sitting in the barrel with my eyes closed, when I suddenly heard the sound of gongs outside, and a soldier shouted, "There is a fire!"

I was startled, could it be that I didn't have a long eye to stir the fire? I hurriedly put on my clothes and jumped out with a big knife in my hand. I saw that the fire outside was proclaiming the sky, and it was burning along the south wind, which was the location of the grain and grass. With such a large fire, it is clear that someone deliberately set it on fire. The soldiers were all carrying water to put out the fire, and Liu Bei was commanding with a black and gray face. I stepped forward and asked, "What's going on? Who can you see setting the fire?"

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "I don't know, I have already sent the second and third brothers to guard the grain and grass to prevent the enemy from sneaking up." General Zilong seems to have found a clue and went over there to investigate. ”

I said "hard work", and immediately chased down in the direction where Zhao Yun went, so as to pick her up. After chasing a few miles, they have entered the swampy area on the east side of the black nest, which is densely swamped and covered with trees and thorns, and has always been inhabited. Could it be that the thief who set the fire had really escaped into this place? I was hesitating, but I heard a sneer in front of me, and a gray figure seemed to float by.

Without further thought, I hurried into the woods. The road was full of thorns and vines, and although I had the light skills of leisurely travel, it was also very difficult. I walked like this for half an hour, but somehow, I turned out of the thorn vine again.

I was suspicious in my heart, and slowly thought back, obviously I was turning all the way in, going deeper and deeper, why did I suddenly turn outside the vines? I didn't have time to think about it, and at the point of my feet, I jumped inward, but the underground thorns and vines were horizontal and vertical, all kinds of things, one carelessly, with a snort, the corner of my newly made green shirt was torn off a piece of thorns. At this time, I couldn't care about the distress, I left the ground on my toes, jumped up to a nearby tree, saw the road, and then continued to leap forward. I ran like an ape, and after a while, I turned a few times and came to a clearing in the swamp. But it's not the path I just found out on the tree, it's really strange.

Standing in the forest, I saw a large forest pressed by the black in front of me, a few crows were wailing in the forest, and there was a faint sound of shouting and scolding in the forest. I was slightly startled in my heart, and when I listened to it, it was Zhao Yun and a man's voice. The man's voice seemed familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember who it was.

I immediately looked in the direction, took advantage of the distance between the trees to leap several times, walked more than ten zhang, and saw that in a pile of strange rocks in the depths of the swamp, Zhao Yun was fighting against a Taoist. I took a closer look, and the man was none other than the Iron Kendo man. And behind the Iron Kendo man lay a woman, dressed in pale yellow, with her hair scattered, and blood stains on her face. I was shocked, this woman was Xu Qianxue!

Zhao Yun swung his long sword, and only made a few moves, but when he saw the iron sword man, he shrank behind a pile of rubble, which was where Xue'er was. But I don't know why, Zhao Yun is going around in the troubled world, but he can't attack him. The Iron Sword Dao people also had three helpers, and seeing that they were also Iron Sword Dao people's disciples, they were all hiding behind the rocks, waiting for an opportunity to attack Zhao Yun, but once Zhao Yun counterattacked, they shrank back. With such a wheel battle method, Zhao Yun was also a little embarrassed.

I was amazed to see that these piles of ordinary rocks were so useful, it was really incredible. I hid behind a tree and looked at it for a moment, thinking to myself, "This pile of strange rocks is really weird, but if I want to come forward to help, I can't escape this formation, how can this be good?"

Although Zhao Yun was at a disadvantage, her swordsmanship was exquisite, and it was difficult for the Iron Sword Dao people to get her for a while. It's just that Xue'er looked haggard, lying on the ground motionless, and she didn't know what the injury was. Seeing that these many rocks are very strange, they must be deduced to understand the mystery before they can defeat the four iron swords.

In the past years in the Quanzhen Sect, I was familiar with the Taoist collections, and I also learned a lot of strange techniques, thinking that although this chaotic stone formation is strange, it is always not far from the truth of the five elements. I watched it for a long time in a daze, and it seemed that I had seen some clues, but if I continued to deduce it from this, there was always something wrong. The left wing is right, the right wing has changed, and the striker who has figured out the formation is difficult to figure out at the back end, and he can't help but get anxious.

It seems that it was the Iron Sword Dao people who set fire to the grain, and he hated Yuan Shao for taking him with his soldiers, and hated me for ruining his good deeds. This maze is also a retreat that the Iron Kendo people have long arranged, and once there are pursuers to chase, they can easily escape with this stone formation. At this time, Xue'er was arrested, and my heart was boiling, so I had to grit my teeth and think of a way to break the enemy.

I don't use intelligence to win when I walk the rivers and lakes, if this formation gives me a day of hard work to figure it out, I will naturally be able to find a way to crack it. But at this time, I am anxious, the more anxious I am, the more blank my heart is, how can I think of the slightest clue?

At that time, he looked at the gap, and he didn't think about it in a hurry, he jumped down from the tree suddenly, grabbed Xu Qianxue's heart, and threw himself out of the pile of rocks. The iron sword man also used the iron sword at this time, a sword flew out, hitting my back of the heart, I was in the air, it was difficult to dodge, so I had to push Xue'er towards Zhao Yun hard, and at the same time make a "thousand jin fall", the body fell straight down, snapped, and fell firmly on the pile of rocks, when this came, but also fell into the formation.

My eyes and nose were swollen and my whole body ached. I rolled over and got up from the pile of rocks, and when the Iron Sword Dao man saw that it was me, he was not angry but happy, and sneered: "Okay, you obediently threw yourself into the net, but you don't have to come to you again in the future." ”

Suddenly, the Iron Kendo man broke through two piles of rocks and attacked me. I hurriedly raised my broadsword and fought him. I knew I wasn't his opponent, so I focused on the battle, and after a few moves, I suddenly tripped over a rock, and I couldn't help but stumble. When I stood upright, the cold wind was blowing, and the iron sword of the iron kendo man had already pierced the door in front of me.
