Chapter 222 The Whereabouts of Cai Yan

This time the host is the legendary Liu An who is very cruel to his wife. As soon as Liu An saw Liu Bei, it was as if he saw his own father. He knelt down at that time, and the tears streaming down his face were more real than Liu Bei's crying .

If it was normal, Liu Bei would probably have to show a little respectful and virtuous corporal, but not today, there are not many people along the way, and now his chest is hungry. Since Liu An is so eager to see I, then I was too polite, helped Liu An up, and said eagerly, "Is there anything to eat, I'm about to starve to death."

Although Liu Bei is not doing very well now, he usually publicizes well. Everyone knows that he is a relative of the emperor, and Liu An, a poor man, is so happy to see Liu Bei. He must do everything possible to please him.

I was planning to get some wild game for Liu Bei to eat, but it is not so easy to get wild rabbits and pheasants in this cold weather, and Liu An's family doesn't have much food, Liu Bei's eyes are green, it must not be enough Food, but this opportunity to please the royal relatives must not be let go.

So this Liu An gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said to Liu Bei, "Uncle Huang, wait a moment, the villain is going to prepare food for Uncle Huang."

After finishing speaking, Liu An turned into the backyard.

"Brother, I'm going to take a pee." Seeing that Liu An was going to prepare a human feast, Zhou Tian hurriedly found an excuse to follow.

Quietly, approaching the kitchen, he saw that Liu Anzhang was holding up a hatchet, intending to cut off the back of a woman's head.

The woman was picking weeds at the moment, unaware that her husband wanted to stew herself in order to please an uncle who didn't know the truth.

"What are we going to have for dinner?" Zhou Tian said suddenly the moment Liu An swung his giant knife down.

That Liu An was startled by Zhou Tian, ​​and when he let go of his hand, the hatchet fell to the ground.

At this time, Liu An's wife also turned around.

When she turned around, not only Liu An was a little at a loss, but Zhou Tianna was also a little silly. Well, the pockmarked face is much more powerful than Lin Chong's. The whole face looks like a dimpled head that has been stepped on by spiked shoes It is estimated that some people believe that it is a new species of gorilla that has just been discovered in the zoo.

Zhou Tian could also understand why Liu An didn't change his face after killing his wife, and he didn't feel any regret at all.

Although Liu An's wife looked pretty badass, she had a good temper. Seeing Liu An's appearance, she didn't say much, and swiped her mouth away.

Liu An didn't even hum, and just rolled into the pile of firewood.

"Liu An, what are you trying to do to my old lady with the hatchet?" Liu's wife stood up and shouted at Liu An who was about to go into shock in the haystack.

Liu's wife was fine when she was sitting, but when she stood up, she was even more scary. Her head was higher than Guan Yu's. Judging by her body, she definitely had the potential to be the number one general in the Three Kingdoms—no wonder Liu was mentioned in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Mrs. An can feed Liu Bei and Sun Qian with just one arm of meat. Such a large piece of meat can support Zhang Fei even when he comes.

"No...nothing...we have a visitor, I want you to say hello..." Liu An cast a resentful glance at Zhou Tian, ​​then tremblingly said to his wife.

"Guest?" Wife Liu looked at Zhou Tian and said, "Is this Liu Huangshu Liu Bei?"

"Next is Liu Bei's fourth younger brother. My eldest brother is waiting to eat your meat...he is resting." Zhou Tian cupped his hands.

"Uncle Liu Huang is indeed here, so I have to greet him well, Liu An, hurry up and go hunting, if you don't come back today with anything to hunt, I will cook you for Uncle Liu's meal." Hearing that Uncle Liu Huang really came, Mrs. Liu was overjoyed, she took a picture of her cookie-like face in the water tank, and after giving Liu An a death order, she bounced to the front room to greet Liu Bei.

Zhou Tian glanced at Liu's wife who left happily, and then at Liu An who was lying in the haystack, and couldn't help sighing, "I'm really a son and daughter of the world!"

Liu An didn't dare not listen to Liu's wife's words, and after asking Zhou Tian to help tell Liu Bei, he went hunting in the mountains with a bow and arrow, probably because he was really afraid that his wife would stew him.

"Uncle Huang, I'll cook rabbits for you soon." When Zhou Tian returned to the front room, Liu's wife was whining at Liu Bei, and the light bulbs between the two exchanged sparks from time to time.

And Liu Bei's right face was twitching non-stop, as if he was in dire straits.

"Uncle Huang, do you like stewed rabbits in clear water or braised rabbits in soy sauce?"

"What I'm good at is the red rabbit, which is tender and fragrant."

"Uncle Huang, why don't you just say something..."

Liu's wife tossed Liu Bei all afternoon, until Liu An brought back a rabbit that was thinner than a pheasant, and Liu's wife stopped for a while.

And Liu's wife planned to wait for Liu Bei to have dinner and chat with her, but Liu Bei's monkey spirit quickly stripped off his clothes after dinner and went into the house prepared by Liu An, covered the quilt and fell asleep. He didn't give Liu's wife the slightest chance.

And the next morning, Liu Bei got up early. Before dawn, he left a thank you letter to Liu An and his wife, and hurried on the road.

At noon, a few people saw a large army, among which there was a big "Cao" written on the army flag. Don't ask, this must be Cao Cao's army.

Seeing Cao Cao, Liu Bei cried bitterly, brewed his feelings, and grabbed Cao Cao's hand.

However, Cao Cao didn't open his eyes to look at Liu Bei at all, but stared at Zhou Tian in a daze, and after dodging Liu Bei's big hand, he gave Zhou Tian a bear hug, "Haha, it's really you, Papi, we have ten I haven't seen you for a few years, why don't you look old at all."

Seeing Cao Cao, Zhou Tian was also happy. In Luoyang City, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had a good relationship with Zhou Tian. The three of them were like-minded, so they were naturally much better than Liu Bei, the cheapest brother.

"I take good care of myself." Zhou Tian laughed, and said to Cao Cao, "You are quite worried about being a leader now, your beard is white, haha."

"Who said no, he was intriguing all day long. I really miss the time when I was in Luoyang. Alas, that kid Yuan Shao was against me all day. It's annoying me to death." Cao Cao whispered to Zhou Tian, ​​"Why are you getting together with Liu Bei? Now, let me tell you that this kid is not a good thing, be careful, don't let him sell it."

"Haha, don't worry, you don't know me yet." Zhou Tian smiled.

Cao Cao and Zhou Tian were talking hotly, but no one would pay attention to Liu Bei. If it wasn't for the reminder from Guo Jia next to him, Cao Cao would have forgotten about Liu Bei.

"Cao Gong, save me." Liu Bei's feelings were wasted when Zhou Tian talked to Cao Cao just now, and now he has to brew again when he sees Cao Cao coming. I said it all.

Cao Cao was listening to Liu Bei's complaints, but he was thinking about how to talk to Zhou Tian all night at night. As soon as Liu Bei finished speaking, he immediately arranged a tent for him to rest.

"Meng De, I forgot to ask you something. That girl Cai Yan is in Xudu now. How is she doing?" After Liu Bei was arranged to leave, Zhou Tian suddenly remembered Cai Yan and asked Cao Cao asked.

"Uh...Cai Yan, she..." Cao Cao hesitated a bit when he spoke, as he did when he stuttered back then.

"What's wrong with her, talk to me, don't play charades with me." Seeing Cao Cao like this, Zhou Tian had a bad feeling.

"He was captured by King Zuoxian of the Huns." Cao Cao said with his head down.

"What, you took it away!!" Zhou Tian was anxious, and brought Cao Cao up, "How the hell did I tell you back then, and how did you promise me that you could help me take care of Cai Yan?" , why is she still being captured by that Zuo Xianwang!"

Cao Cao let Zhou Tianti hang in the air, his guards were naturally shocked, and Xu Chu, who was more than two meters tall, hurried forward to subdue Zhou Tian.

"Get out of here!!" Zhou Tian held Cao Cao with one hand, but with the other hand, he pushed Xu Chu who was coming forward four or five meters, and fell directly to the ground.

Zhou Tian's appearance frightened everyone else. Who is Xu Chu, Cao Cao's personal bodyguard, with a height of more than two meters, his strength must not be inferior, but now Zhou Tian has no power to fight back .

"My lord!" Cao Cao's guards, including Xu Chu, all drew their knives.

"Retire!!" Cao Cao waved his hand at the guards, sighed and said, "Back when Dong Zhuo entered the capital, Cai Yong was reused and had a very high status in the court. I thought Cai Yan would be fine in the Cai residence. And I escaped from Luoyang because of the assassination of Dong Zhuo, and I had neither the opportunity nor the reason to take Cai Yan out of the Cai mansion. Later, when I waited for the eight princes to attack Dong Zhuo, I did not expect Dong Zhuo to burn Luoyang, and it was precisely because of that Once, Cai Yan disappeared, and after I inquired about it, I found Cai Yan's trace, and it turned out that she was captured by the Xiongnu King Zuo Xian who came south to plunder."

After hearing Cao Cao's words, Zhou Tian also calmed down, put Cao Cao down from mid-air, and said, "Meng De, do you have a way to save Yan'er back?"

Zhou Tian couldn't imagine how a wealthy daughter like Cai Yan lived in the bitter cold north, and now Zhou Tian's only thought was to rescue Cai Yan.

"Sorry, I can't help you." Cao Cao lowered his head, "Although Cai Yan has always said that she would rather die than follow her, King Zuoxian of the Huns really likes her. If an ordinary woman can get her back through negotiation, Cai Yan can't." , unless force is used, but the Huns are powerful, with my current strength..."

"Meng De, I don't ask you to send troops to fight the Xiongnu. I only hope that you can quickly attack Lv Bu and hand Lv Bu over to me." Zhou Tian knew Cao Cao's difficulties, so Zhou Tian didn't expect It is expected that Cao Cao will send troops to rescue Cai Yan, but Cao Cao must go if he does not save himself. Of course, this requires preparation, and Lu Bu will become his greatest help.

"Okay, I will order the camp to be pulled out now, and we will attack Xuzhou overnight." Cao Cao nodded, and immediately ordered the army to move out.

The whole army advanced rapidly, and in the afternoon, they arrived in Jibei, where Xiahou Dun camped and rested after his left eye was injured.

When the two armies met, Cao Cao was shocked when he heard that Xiahou Dun was injured, and hurriedly entered the account to investigate.

"Yuan Rang, are you okay? How could you be so seriously injured?" Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun were of the same family, and Xiahou Dun was Cao Cao's capable general, so Cao Cao was still very concerned about Xiahou Dun's injury.

"The last general is incompetent, let Gao Shun's small and medium school shoot in the left eye, causing the entire army to be defeated." Xiahou Dun couldn't help feeling guilty when he saw Cao Cao came to see him.

"Let's not talk about victory or defeat for the time being, I will order someone to send you back to Xudu to recuperate." Cao Cao waved his hand and was about to give an order.

But at this time, Zhou Tian said, "Meng De, I have a magic method here to make General Xiahou heal."

Xiahou Dun is quite famous for eating his own eyeballs, and Zhou Tian had already expected this.

"My lord, this is..." Xiahou Dun turned sideways when he heard the words, and couldn't help asking after seeing Zhou Tian's appearance.

Cao Cao is different from Liu Bei. He is now a well-known entrepreneur. He has a big family and a big business. There are not many people.Yuan Shao in Hebei counts as one, and Yuan Shao in Runan counts as one, but others call him Cao Gong or Cao thief, and Cao Cao's subordinates even call him the Lord, so Xiahou Dun dared to call Cao Cao for Zhou Tian, ​​who was in his twenties. young people are very curious.

"This is my old friend in Luoyang, Zhou Tianzhou Papi." After Cao Cao introduced, he said to Zhou Tian, ​​"Papi you can really heal Yuanlong... By the way, you were the schoolboy of Hua Tuo's genius doctor back then. There should be some panacea."

"There is no magic medicine, but there is a plaster." Zhou Tian took out a magic talisman from his pocket and "stick it on General Yuanlong's left eye, it will heal within a short while."

"This matter is true." Cao Cao looked at the thin piece of paper in Zhou Tian's hand and said with some doubts.

"Just watch." Zhou Tian walked up to Xiahou Dun and stuck the talisman on his forehead.

After a while, Xiahou Dun suddenly sat up from the bed and shouted, "It's alright, it's alright, it's really alright, Mr. Zhou is a genius doctor."

Zhou Tian's talisman could not make Xiahoudun's eyeballs grow back, it could only heal his wounds, but even so, it was enough to amaze Cao Cao and Xiahoudun.

"My lord, please let me attack Lu Bu this time, let me be the vanguard, and I will never disappoint my lord's expectations." Xiahou Dun was excited for a while, and suddenly half-kneeled in front of Cao Cao, begging for his life, he thought he did not make amends The chance came, but Zhou Tian's miraculous plaster gave him this chance, so Xiahou Dun decided to sacrifice the eyeballs of his parents with Lu Bu's blood.

"Okay, Yuan Rang, then you will be the vanguard, conquer Xuzhou and capture Lu Bu alive." Cao Cao was naturally overjoyed to see Xiahou Dun alive and well, so he ordered Xiahou Dun to be the vanguard and led a vanguard army of 5000 people to attack Xuzhou City.

After Cao Cao gave Xiahou Dun an order, he followed Guo Jia's advice and ordered Cao Ren to attack Xiaopei with [-] soldiers.

After a few orders were arranged, Cao Cao was not idle, and ordered the army to reorganize and set off in the early morning of the next day in order to meet Xiahou Dun's vanguard army.

But when the army reached Xiaoguan, they saw Xiahou Dun's camp as the vanguard.

It turned out that there were [-] defenders at Xiaoguan, and Xiahou Dun's [-] troops could not break through this pass, let alone attack Xuzhou.

"General Xiahou, Lu Bu can pass through this pass." Seeing Xiahou Dun, Zhou Tian asked directly.

It would be best if Lu Bu could win in this Xiaoguan. Isn't it popular to fight alone now? As long as he has the opportunity to fight Lu Bu single-handedly, then he will definitely be able to capture Lu Bu.

Xiahou Dun shook his head and said, "Xiao Guan is guarded by Chen Gong, Lu Bu is not there, and Chen Gong is very resourceful, no matter how the general scolds him, he just can't hold on, so the general cannot move forward at all."

"It's Chen Gong..." Cao Cao frowned when he heard that Chen Gong was guarding it himself. Cao Cao and Chen Gong were old acquaintances, and Cao Cao said, "Ning teach me to bear the world, don't teach the world to bear me." The guy who left in anger had a very bright mind, and it's no wonder that Xiahou Dun couldn't break through this level if he was guarding it.

"Feng Xiao, what can you do?" Among Cao Cao's counselors, the most powerful one is Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao, the ghost of the Three Kingdoms. If this person hadn't died early, he would have been able to compete with Zhuge Liang. Cao Cao's success in the early years was due to this person. .

"Don't worry, my lord. My lord has forgotten that we still have internal support from Lu Bu. I'm afraid someone will send us a clever plan in a short time." Guo Jia said with a smile, confidently.

"Feng Xiao refers to Chen Gui and his son." Cao Cao also remembered, "But they..."

Halfway through Cao Cao's speech, a soldier reported outside the account that three secret letters had been found on the arrows shot from watching.

After receiving the secret letter, Cao Cao smiled and said, "Feng Xiao, you are really good at predicting things."

"My lord, I've praised you." Guo Jia smiled, then turned to Zhou Tian and said, "Pick it up, you don't have to worry, breaking this level will be tonight."

Zhou Tian has always been a little curious about Guo Jia, a prodigy who died early, so he chatted with him yesterday.

Sure enough, at night, there was a cry of killing in the pass, and Cao Jun also took this opportunity to break through the pass.And the momentum was like a broken bamboo, so they directly attacked Xuzhou City all the way. At this time, Xuzhou City was already under the control of Chen Gui and his son. Seeing Cao Jun coming, he opened the city gate to welcome him.

Zhou Tian was not interested in how this pass was broken. He was more concerned about Lu Bu's situation. However, Lu Bu had already fled to Xiapi, while Guan Yu and Zhang Fei joined Liu Bei.

"Big Brother, Fourth Brother, it's great to see that you're all right." Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were naturally very happy to see that Zhou Tian and Liu Bei were fine.

And Liu Bei burst into tears, and the sound of mourning resounded throughout Xuzhou City.

Several people talked about what happened these days, and Liu Bei burst into tears again.

After Xuzhou is broken, Cao Cao will naturally have a big feast, and everyone will drink happily, but Zhou Tian is not happy with the wine glass. Cai Yan has been in the hands of the Huns for more than ten years. Let it go.

"Yan'er, just wait, I'll save you if Lu Bu is broken." Zhou Tian murmured to himself while holding a wine glass alone on the Xuzhou city wall, looking at the twinkling stars in the sky.
