Chapter 94 The balance in Chen Deng’s heart... (Thanks to Po Da Fang Zhe for his two monthly tickets~)
When Chen Deng heard that Lu Bu even knew his favorite food, a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

Is this because you know his living habits very well?
Could it be that the other party's spies have extended to Xuzhou, or even to his side?
Chen Deng couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

If I do something that is detrimental to the other party, there is no guarantee that the other party will not send assassins to kill me...

It seems that I must be extremely careful in my future actions!

But speaking of it, he did feel uncomfortable in his stomach recently.

Unexpectedly, the legendary miracle doctor Zhang Zhongjing also joined the other side.

Whether or not he surrendered to Lu Bu, it would always be okay to go see a miracle doctor.

After thinking this through, Chen Deng brushed his sleeves towards Lu Bu and bowed:

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Wen. I will definitely visit you someday.

"It's getting late, I'll take my leave now."

Zhang Hong also bowed and left with Chen Deng.

Lu Bu looked at Chen Deng's departing back, a meaningful smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

At this time, brothers Xu Shao and Xu Jing also walked towards Lu Bu, and the former smiled and praised:

“With Marquis Wen coming today, this Yuedan Review is much more lively than before.

“I hope that Wen Hou can come to participate in the Yuedan Review more often in his spare time.

"With your talent, you will surely astonish everyone and raise the overall level of Yuedan Review!"

Lu Bu did not refuse, but he did not agree either.

In the future, as his territory expands, he will have to move constantly.

It is not possible to always have time to participate in the monthly reviews.

And with this evaluation, it is enough for him.

The title of "Demon Lord of Martial Slaughter" will surely be known throughout the world in no time!
At this time, Lu Bu suddenly remembered something and said to Xu Shao:

"I noticed that the gentleman didn't look well, and he occasionally gasped when he spoke.

"If I don't take care of myself, I'm afraid... I won't live more than two or three years."

Lu Bu vaguely remembered that Xu Shao died in 195, and now it is September 193.

Two years may be gone...

Xu Shao was startled, then exclaimed:
"Wen Hou is truly a god! I once went to a half-immortal to have my fortune told, and he also said that I only have a few years to live.

"I asked him if he had any idea how to crack it, but he took out a piece of rough cloth and wrote the word '口' on each end of it.

"They say the solution to this problem is in it... but I still haven't figured out its true meaning."

Hearing Xu Shao's words, Lu Bu also looked thoughtful:

"There are two mouths written on a piece of cloth. Why do I feel so familiar..."

Before Lu Bu could react, Dong Bai, who had been silent, suddenly spoke in a low voice:
"Isn't this the master's name?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room turned their eyes to the girl in the black dress.

Suddenly being the focus of attention, Dong Bai shrank behind Yan Qingqing unconsciously like a frightened deer.

Xu Shao was the first to come back to his senses, his face full of surprise:

"Yes, yes! The two are Lü, and when written on the cloth, isn't that the great name of Marquis Wen?

"It turns out that my life and death are closely related to Lord Wen!"

Lu Bu finally came to his senses.
“Is there such a miraculous thing? But these days, death comes mostly from natural disasters and man-made calamities.

“Man-made deaths mainly come from wars, while natural disasters mainly come from plagues.

"I think Mr. Xu might have contracted some chronic disease.

"Come with me back to Jiujiang today. I will send someone to Lujiang to invite the great doctor Zhang Zhongjing to come and treat you." Upon hearing this, Xu Shao thanked him immediately:
"Thank you for your concern, Lord Wen. Please go back to Guangling County first. I will go home to pack my things and then go to Jiujiang with you."

Lu Bu nodded.

Anyway, there is no rush about this matter. The other party still has two or three years to live and will not die suddenly.

He immediately parted ways with the Xu Shao brothers and returned to Guangling County with the newly acquired brave general Gan Ning.

Xu Shao watched Lü Bu's carriage disappear from his sight with a smile on his face:

“I never thought that this Wen Hou is not only talented in both civil and military affairs, but also my lucky star!
"Now I, Xu Zijiang, can finally live a few more years..."

Xu Shao did not notice that his cousin Xu Jing behind him had a cold light in his eyes, but the words he spoke were full of concern:

"Yes... If you could live a few more years, our Xu family would definitely become one of the most powerful families in Guangling County!"

Xu Shao turned around and saw his cousin looking at him with a smile.

He was silent for two seconds, then smiled back:
"My cousin is far more talented than me. Even if I die, our Xu family will surely be able to move towards glory under your leadership!"

The smile on Xu Jing's face gradually faded:

"If that's the case, why did you use your position to prevent me from taking up an official position when you were serving as Gongcao in Runan County?
"Is it because my talent is far superior to yours?"

Xu Shao sighed and said:

"At that time, I was still young and thought highly of myself. I also had a grudge against you, my brother, so I made some mistakes that I shouldn't have made.

"Even the powerful Lü Wenhou can reform himself. So, I am just an ordinary person, so why can't I have a chance to repent and reform myself?"

Xu Jing suddenly fell silent.

Xu Shao suddenly patted his shoulder, walked forward and said:

"I think this Lü Wenhou is extraordinary. The rise and fall of my Xu family depends on him!

"We two brothers should put aside our past grudges and work together to lead our family to prosperity!"

Looking at Xu Shao's back getting longer and longer in the setting sun, Xu Jing was silent for a long time, and finally followed slowly.

……

The next day, after Xu Shao arrived, Lu Bu took everyone to Jiujiang.

At the same time, he asked Gao Shun, who was accompanying him, to take Gan Ning to Lujiang to invite Zhang Zhongjing.

On the way, Lu Bu and his men unexpectedly met Chen Deng.

The other side was joining them with a hundred war horses and a thousand stones of grain, escorted by five hundred serfs.

Seeing that the other party only brought these few things to give to him, Lu Bu understood that the other party still did not intend to surrender to him.

But he didn't ask too much. No matter how much he gave, it was still a gift. He had no reason to refuse the other party's favor.

A few days later, everyone finally arrived at Shouchun City.

Lu Bu has temporarily decided to live in Shouchun City.

After all, Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor here, and whether it was the height and thickness of the city walls or the population within the city, it was the scale of a super-large city.

As for Yuan Shu's palace, Lu Bu had already demolished it as agreed.

All the precious materials taken down were exchanged for money and grain and returned to the people of Shouchun City.

The people sang praises to him for this, and Lu Bu's prestige in Shouchun City reached its peak for a time!
As soon as I went out, the common people would stuff countless eggs or pairs of cloth shoes, as well as various other small gifts into my pocket.

Everyone admires and loves this kind-hearted Marquis Wen.

Xu Shao and Chen Deng were also deeply touched when they saw these extremely enthusiastic people.

I didn’t expect that Lu Bu had such a high prestige just after he captured Shouchun.

Xu Shao was fine, but Chen Deng was extremely shocked!
The balance in his heart also gradually rebounded from leaning towards Cao Cao...
