The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 421 Cao Mengde, long time no see
There was a light rain in the misty sky, pattering, washing the dusty leaves and weeds into emerald green as new.

There were potholes and water on the dirt road. In front of the road, a middle-aged man wearing a bamboo hat and ordinary clothes was leading a gray horse with thick hooves, and walked forward slowly.

The man wanted to ride fast in his heart, but the road was slippery, and galloping on a horse was not only easy to fall, but also very eye-catching.

Now he is being arrested everywhere, be careful everywhere, how dare he act with great fanfare.

This person is none other than Cao Cao.

But even though he changed his name and surname, and was cunning again and again, he was still found out in Zhongmou County and put in prison.

At first Cao Cao thought he would die, but the county magistrate of clinker was a loyal man. After hearing about his ambition, he not only let him go, but also abandoned his official position to go with him.

Later, when passing through Chenggao, Cao Cao went to the home of his old friend Lu Boshe.Lu Boshe was not there, and his sons and guests sharpened their knives and slaughtered pigs, and entertained them warmly.Perhaps because of being too enthusiastic, Cao Cao suspected that there was a fraud, drew his sword and killed eight people in the house including the guests, women and children, took the horses and food, and continued to flee eastward.

Not far away, the county magistrate surnamed Chen questioned him.

Cao Cao still felt somewhat regretful, but his character did not like to admit his mistakes, even if he was wrong.

So he replied: "It is better for me to blame others, than for others to blame me."

This sentence completely cut off the thoughts of the county magistrate surnamed Chen, but he felt that killing him was inhumane, so he got up and abandoned him at night when Cao Cao was sleeping soundly.

When Cao Cao woke up, the person beside him disappeared, and he probably guessed his thoughts in his heart, and he didn't blame him, but felt a little pity.

If you make a big deal, don't worry about the small details.

After walking for a long time, there was a small river in front of him. Cao Cao led his horse across and drank by the river.

As the breeze blows, the weeping willows on the riverside sway gracefully, making people feel refreshed and cool.

Looking at the silhouetted face reflected in the water, Cao Cao became more determined: One day, time will prove to you that I am right.

Thirty or forty miles further forward is Chenliu County.

Zhang Miao, governor of Chenliu County, Cao Cao's close friend, once he got there, he no longer had to hide in Tibet all day long, and he was completely safe.

Before Cao Cao had time to be happy for a long time, he heard the sound of horses' hoofs, and the number of hooves was definitely not rare.

He squatted by the river and looked back quietly. There were probably five or six hundred cavalrymen. Judging from their equipment and the surging morale when marching, it is not an exaggeration to call them tigers and wolves.

This team seems to be coming here, wanting to drink and rest by the river.

Seeing this situation, Cao Cao was shocked. If they recognized him, would he still have a chance to survive?

But if they ran on horseback now, they would definitely be alarmed and chased after them.But if you stay here, if you are recognized, you can only be caught with nothing to do, and sit and wait for death.

You can't run if you run, and you can't stay if you stay.

Could it be that God is going to kill me Cao Mengde?
Cao Cao was almost desperate.

The horse's hooves fell on the muddy potholes, splashing high muddy water, trampling on Cao Cao's heart, his heart was in a state of confusion, clenched so tightly that his fists were tinged with veins, and his mind kept echoing: what to do, what to do...

But when the cavalry army got a little closer, Cao Cao saw a big "Lu" engraved on the flag of the commander of this army.Look at the leader again, with a fire dragon horse under his crotch, a purple gold crown with his hair tied up, a mighty armor, a tall and straight body, and a handsome face, like a god coming to the world.

If it's not Lu Bu, who is it!
God will not kill me!

Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, and loosened his clenched fists.

Lv Bu was in Liaodong for a long time to seek rebellion. Cao Cao concluded that he must not know about his assassination of Dong Zhuo, so he adjusted his mood, laughed and took the initiative to go forward, and greeted with cupped hands: "General Lu, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't you come here to be safe?"

If you are afraid and don't move forward, it will make you suspicious.

Lv Bu, who set off from Youzhou, hurried forward, but he still couldn't catch up with Dong Zhuo.

Along the way, the rumors and gossips I heard have never stopped.Especially the closer you get to Luoyang, the clearer what you hear.First, He Jin was killed, then the eunuch took the young emperor away, and later, Dong Zhuo entered the capital, abolished the young emperor and established Liu Xie, the official worshiped Xiangguo, and claimed to be the grand master.

In addition to the advance of time, the wheel of history remains the same.

The only thing Lu Bu didn't expect was this Cao Jiamengde who appeared out of nowhere in front of him.

Cao Cao came up to say hello, and Lu Bu responded politely: "Brother Meng De is not an official in Luoyang, why did you come to this mountain trail?"

Hearing Lu Bu's indifferent tone, Cao Cao felt relieved and confirmed his previous conjecture. He cupped his hands and replied, "Knowing that my father is seriously ill, I told the grand master a holiday. I want to hurry back so that I can stay at my father's bed." before, to show filial piety."

Cao Cao's father, wife and children left Luoyang long before Dong Zhuo came to Beijing, and returned to his hometown of Qiao County.

Such a statement is almost flawless.

However, even if these words can deceive the people of the world, they cannot be deceived by Lu Bu.

He couldn't understand why Cao Cao fled to the east. He was the one who exposed Cao Cao's assassination of Dong in the previous life, but he didn't know who changed it in this life?
I remember that at the beginning of his rebirth, Lu Bu's mind had not changed, and the first thing he thought of was to kill Cao and Liu, so as to avoid future troubles forever.

In fact, Lu Bu did exactly that. He went to Zhuo County, Liu Bei's hometown, and even took Cao Cao's life when he met Cao Cao for the first time in Xinzheng, and he almost succeeded.

However, from the rebirth after the epidemic to the awakening in the palace, Lu Bu is no longer comparable to the reckless man in the previous life.With the spirit of a hero, his hostility towards Cao Cao and even Liu Bei seems to have faded a lot, and he even feels a little sympathetic.

Taking the matter in front of him as an example, Cao Cao was ordered to be arrested everywhere. It stands to reason that he should have fled in a hurry, or hid in the mountains.

If it were him, he would definitely kill the blood. He definitely didn't have the guts to go forward and talk and laugh.

Lu Bu got off his horse and ordered the soldiers who had driven for a long time to rest for a while.

Afterwards, he took Cao Cao's left hand and didn't ask anyone to follow him, just like old friends meeting.

Lu Bu's actions made Cao Cao feel uneasy, and he asked and said as he thought.Shouldn't you let me go at this time?
Cao Cao couldn't break away from the strength in Lu Bu's hand, and he didn't dare to resist, so he could only let Lu Bu pull him forward.

The two came to the riverside, and the river breeze was refreshing.

Lu Bu released Cao Cao, and the two stood under a weeping willow, overlooking the beautiful mountains and rivers.Both of them are not ordinary people, and there is a kind of majestic momentum pointing to the country when they go to that stop.

It's just that when Lu Bu opened his mouth, Cao Cao beside him was shocked out of his wits.

"Why did Meng De lie to me? Your father is not sick, but you are seriously ill. Don't I know that you are not trying to show filial piety, but you are actually running for your life!"
