Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 33
The armor that emerged from Lu Bu's arm was different from the mecha that Bai Tu saw when he saw him for the first time, and was a bit smaller in comparison.

Now Lu Bu only had mechas emerging from his arms, and it didn't look out of proportion.

Then only the forearm armor part was visible, and the upper and lower folded bow arms popped out. After stretching, it looked like a real longbow. Immediately, Lu Bu used his right hand, which was not covered by the mecha, to directly open the bow string. With the sound of the bow string stretching, Vermilion laser arrows appeared in response...

Gan Ning and Taishi Cizheng were confronting each other on the river. Even the Jinfan thieves were no longer calm. Some even wanted to persuade the leader to calm down and forget it.

However, at this moment, a red light, like a rainbow piercing the sun, surged towards the two people on the river!
When the two found out, they each wanted to retreat, but the weapons tied together restrained each other for a moment, and neither of them had time to let go.

Then Gan Ning and Tai Shi Ci felt a huge force coming from the weapon, and they held on tightly to barely let go.

And after that, accompanied by a crisp sound, the two found that the weapon was relaxed, and saw that the iron chain had been broken by the arrow just shot!
Following the light of the arrow, I saw a man with only one arm covered in armor, a sharp look between his brows, and a proud and heroic aura that seemed to rise from the sky, slowly retracting his arm bow.

Even if it was a white picture, I was stunned for a moment - then I remembered that Lu Bu's most glorious achievement in the novel was not only the battle with three heroes before Hulao Pass, but also shooting a halberd at the gate!
Baitu even suspects that the bow that his adoptive father used just now is not the strongest bow, not an arrow with all his strength...

Seeing that there was such a master on board what they thought was the main ship of the caravan, Taishi Ci and Gan Ning had no intention of taking action again.

"Who is Your Excellency?" Gan Ning, who had always acted recklessly, asked solemnly at this moment, and Tai Shici looked over with the same seriousness.

"Jiuyuan Lu Bu."

When Gan Ning and Tai Shi Ci heard this, they couldn't help but be horrified - of course they had heard of this name!

Under Hulao Pass, there are one against three, and there is a vague atmosphere of the best general in the world.

It's just that the two of them had never met Lu Bu before, and they were not convinced, so they might not think that Lu Bu was just as good.

Just like in front of Hulao Pass, Wu Anguo, Fang Yue, Mu Shun... were all confident when they went into battle.

Taishi Ci had stayed in the north for a long time, and had fought against the brave general Guan Hai of the Yellow Turban Army, and had some experience in fighting against masters. But Gan Ning... as a water thief on the Yangtze River, what decent masters could he meet?This is the first time for someone like Tai Shici to do this!
Only when they really met Lu Bu, Taishi Ci and Gan Ning at this time did they realize the gap between the two sides - how did the half-covering armor achieve it?Just using one arm of the armor can have such powerful power and such amazing accuracy?

Although Lu Bu had arrogance, he didn't show complacency.

Since the battle in Chang'an, Lu Bu has not met an opponent who can make him serious in terms of personal force!

When Bai Tu heard Lu Bu self-reported his family, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The format of "place name + person name" does sound very imposing, but if it is replaced with the place name of later generations, sometimes the effect will be much worse. For example... Jiuyuan Lu Bu Will become "Baotou Lu Bu".

"Pfft." Bai Tu was thinking, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Lu Bu:? ? ?
Lu Bu forced himself to maintain his grace and did not turn his head to look at Bai Tu. He thought to himself: Could it be that my son is a fool?

"Why are you laughing?" Gan Ning glared at Bai Tu and asked angrily.

Originally frightened by Lu Bu, Gan Ning was already shocked, but at the same time, he felt ashamed. At this time, he actually found a young man next to him, laughing at him?Can this be tolerated... Do you think you are Lu Bu too?

Bai Tu's mind suddenly started racing. Although Lu Bu was standing by and already wanted to stand up for him, but... Bai Tu didn't want to be regarded as the stupid son of a landlord!

As for telling the truth?At that time, it will not be a problem of "Baotou Lu Bu", but a problem of Bai Tu getting beaten all over his head.

"I... laugh at you Gan Ning. You have only one talent, but you are just a water thief on the Yangtze River. You think you are free and free, and you are happy with your grudges. In fact, you are just self-deception. You left the small prison in Shu County and came to the Yangtze River. Big cage!" Bai Tu said.

"You! You're an ordinary person, so you don't understand..." Gan Ning was annoyed, but Lu Bu beside Baitu could calm him down.

"I'm still laughing at you, Taishi Ziyi. You claim to have unparalleled loyalty, but you can only do the things of a common man. You can't do justice to the common people, and you can't do it to yourself!" Bai Tu turned around and said to Taishi Ci again.

Compared with Gan Ning, who was only a water thief, Tai Shici's reputation is much greater. One of the things he is famous for is that when he was a small official in Donglai, the governor of Qingzhou impeached the prefect of Donglai at that time, and both sides insisted on their own opinions In order to ensure that the prefect's documents arrive first, Tai Shici rushed to Luoyang first and destroyed the documents of the governor's envoy...

Because of this matter, Taishi Ci could only avoid trouble in Liaodong from now on.

Later, when the Yellow Turban Army was in charge of Hai and besieging Beihai, Taishi Ci single-handedly entered the siege because Kong Rong had taken care of his mother. He entered the city to meet Kong Rong, and then rushed out with a letter to seek help from Liu Bei for Kong Rong!
Looking at Tai Shici's actions, including the fact that he directly stepped forward when Gan Ning robbed Dao just now, what he did was all a word of "righteousness".

It's just that Tai Shici's "righteousness" is more inclined to "chivalry" than "loyalty".

Even if it was the time of destroying the documents for the prefect, it was not considered loyal. After all, the county officials could not be said to be "loyal" to the official, but to be loyal was to be loyal to the imperial court. It can also be seen that he has no "loyalty to work" mentality.

On the contrary, he is more like those pre-Qin knights in the Assassin's Biographies. As long as someone treats him with kindness, he is willing to repay him with his life. But for knights, "loyalty" means far less than "righteousness".

On the positive side, this is indeed a chivalrous spirit, but on the negative side, it is also a kind of "irresponsibility". You can die for small righteousness, but you don't have the perseverance and self-confidence to live for the greater righteousness.

Cao Cao also went through this stage. When holding the Seven-Star Sword, Cao Cao probably didn't have anything behind him. He just wanted to assassinate Dong Zhuo with a sense of loyalty. But Cao Cao was very lucky...the assassination failed, but he saved his life. At the same time, he also Awaken its true heroic side!
Regardless of life, it is easy to stab with a knife, but it is a matter of gritting one's teeth and stamping one's feet; saving one's life and being determined to overcome the troubled times is the real difficulty.

Tai Shici was a little confused by Baitu's spray - how could there be such an "unrighteous person"?Forget what I just saved you?
However, Bai Tu didn't give him a chance to interrupt, and continued: "You know? You were just a few inches away from dying on the spot! You died on this river. In a few years, no one will remember your names!"
Why are you staring at me?Feeling brave?You have the courage to save our caravan, why don't you have the courage to save the common people in the world?Don't you think it's ridiculous? "

"Who are you? Are you speaking to all the people in the world? You are not ashamed of your words..." Gan Ning asked coldly.

"Yes, you keep talking about the common people, but what have you done for the common people?" Tai Shici was also a little angry.

"Me? I am Mubai Tu from Yangzhou. You should have heard of me? I... indeed have only made a small contribution to the common people, but I believe that if you are willing to help me, you will definitely make a difference to the common people in the world. contribute!"

Gan Ning, Tai Shici: ...
