"..." Xie Lige felt that he might have been possessed.
One or two nights later, he came to collect debts.
They were all creditors.
What..,
What could he do? Xie Lige softened his tone and apologized,
And promised that he would definitely go back to the previous world when he was free in the future. His tone was so sincere that it was deeply touching.
Who knew..,
Xuan Xiao perfunctorily raised his eyelids. He was as motionless as a mountain. He did not show any signs of being moved by Xie Lige's performance,
The corners of his mouth twitched as he said, "I hope you don't break your promise,
I don't want to ascend again. "
Xie Lige: "... have you been very arrogant recently?" He glanced at Xuan Xiao, who was pretending to be angry, and chuckled.
Xuan Xiao was serious for a second. "I'm joking."
"Hurry up and leave!"
Xie Lige ordered him to leave.
Finally, the tent became quiet. Xie Lige heaved a sigh of relief. He was not in the mood to continue looking at the map. He rubbed his temples tiredly and packed up to go to sleep.
If he was in debt, he did not know how much debt he owed.
Countless familiar faces of the worlds he had experienced appeared in front of his eyes,
Xie Lige lay on the bed and looked at the tent above his head,
There was no joy or sorrow in his heart. He did not know what he was thinking. An indescribable emotion gradually filled his heart.
Without a doubt..,
Xie Lige wanted to go back.
No matter whether each world was real or fake, no matter what the requirements of the mission..,
Xie Lige asked himself seriously in his heart,
Did he want to go back?
Did he want to go back and see those old friends?
He thought about it again and again,
He came to a conclusion.
He wanted!
Even after such a long time, the voices and smiles of those people did not fade away with time in his heart. On the contrary, they began to become stronger and stronger.
He did not sleep that night.
The next morning, Lü Bu came out of the tent and looked around blankly. When he was about to go to the camp to wash his clothes like a wandering soul, he bumped into the person next to him just as he raised his foot. When he opened his eyes, the child was immediately scared out of his wits.
Lü Bu carefully asked the man who was staring at the sunrise on the horizon, "Father?"
Bumping into his father as soon as he stepped out of the door, Lü Bu's heart skipped a beat. He silently tried to recall if he had done anything bad last night. If his father found out, he would come to the front of the tent early in the morning to block the door.
Recalling the strength of his father's beatings, the brat could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
He didn't dare to run away. Although he didn't know what he had done wrong, Xie Lige had left too many traumas in his heart. He didn't dare to move his feet and obediently stayed where he was, ready to accept the coming storm.
The expected rage did not come. After a while, Lü Bu opened his eyes in confusion.
After a sleepless night, Lige finally figured out his purpose and was in a good mood. When he heard his son's timid question, he turned his head and raised his eyebrows.
Lü Bu was caught off guard as he looked at his father in the air. In the next second, his entire body stiffened.
"It's nothing. I just woke up early."
Xie Lige withdrew his gaze in satisfaction and patted his son's shoulder as he spoke casually.
Lü Bu: "…"
"Pack up and get to Ji Zhou as soon as possible. There's a tough battle coming up!"
"Oh!"
"Send someone to call the military advisor and the others."
"Someone has already gone."
When the soldiers finished packing, Xie Lige immediately gave the order to set off. Lü Bu rode behind him on horseback. Along the way, the two of them occasionally talked about their plans after arriving at Ji Zhou.
"I hope that you can fulfill your ambition within three years." After Xie Lige finished speaking about his plan, his gaze fixed on Lü Bu.
Lü Bu met his father's gaze and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Of course I can."
His father had already prepared the rest of his journey. Unless he was hopelessly stupid, he would definitely be able to achieve his goal.
Ten days later, the brigade arrived at the outskirts of Ji Zhou City. According to the spies, the Yuan family had already entered the city three days ago. This was also within Xie Lige's expectations. Lü Bu heard the spies' words and nodded. He waved his hand and dismissed the spies.
"Father?" Lü Bu raised his head and looked at Xie Lige.
Xie Lige sighed. "This time you can do whatever you want!"
Lü Bu received permission and immediately rushed out of the tent. When he reached the outskirts of the city, the people in Ji Zhou City were in a state of panic, especially the few people from the Yuan family. They all thought that Lü Bu had not vented his anger after killing Yuan Shao and had chased them all the way to Ji Zhou City.
"This brat is ruthless!" The head of the Yuan family raised his eyebrows and scolded.
In the room, Yuan Shu was sitting on a chair. Based on his understanding of Lü Bu, he thought for a moment and said, "Things are not that simple."
Don't act until you see the hare. This was the famous Vicious Wolf's life principle.
To put it bluntly, to have the Cangyun Army rush through the night just to find trouble with the Yuan family, Yuan Shu believed that they were not qualified. At least, they were not qualified in Lü Bu's eyes. That guy's character was high and mighty. He simply disdained to use this kind of method on them. He must have other purposes.
After thinking about it, it could only be Ji Zhou City.
Yuan Shu thought of a terrible possibility, but intentionally or unintentionally, he did not say it out loud. Or it could be said that he was unwilling to admit this fact.
At this moment, a soldier came in from outside the city gate. He held a bright yellow imperial edict and quickly rode a horse into the city gate.
After a while, the aristocratic families in the city understood the other party's intention. The imperial edict that was sent over stated that the guards of Ji Zhou were to open the gate and welcome Lü Bu's army into the city.
Such an imperial edict chilled the hearts of everyone in the city. Lü Bu was preparing to occupy Ji Zhou.
Naturally, the Yuan family also received the news. The atmosphere in the family was very stiff. Everyone was in a hurry. Those who could make the decision came out and began to gather together to discuss what to do next.
Some of them were frowning, some were cold and stiff, and most of them were looking at their patriarch.
The patriarch of the Yuan family felt the gazes on him and sighed. If the army led by Yuan Shao was not destroyed in the capital, their Yuan family would not have fallen to this point. The Yuan family's army was mostly in the hands of Yuan Shao.
The speed of the Cangyun Army led by Lü Bu was too fast. They just received the news that the other party held the emperor. They thought that the other party would choose to return to Liangzhou City first to welcome the emperor. They did not expect Lü Bu to be so ruthless. He completely ignored the words of the outside world and brought the little emperor to Ji Zhou.
The imperial edict successfully put Ji Zhou City into a dilemma.
If they opened, the city gates would be broken. Ji Zhou would belong to Lü Bu.
If they did not open, the imperial edict would be difficult to carry out. No matter how much the imperial family's deterrence had declined, as long as there was a little emperor, they would have to open the city gates as long as the general guarding Ji Zhou did not say that they were rebelling against the Han Dynasty. Otherwise, the scholars of the world would be able to drown them.
"Lü Bu has a good plan!" The elder of the Yuan family understood this point and said in a hoarse voice.
As he spoke, a trace of envy flashed through his eyes. He was someone from the same era as Dong Zhuo and had witnessed the great demon king suppressing them for an entire era. Even the emperor could not breathe. When he learned that Dong Zhuo had died, he was even drunk for half a month. His heart was filled with joy and sorrow.
He was happy that the great mountain that had been pressing down on him had finally disappeared.
He was sorrowful that the fox mourned the death of the rabbit.
The current situation completely suppressed his thoughts from back then.
Although Dong Zhuo had died outside Liangzhou City, he had left behind a son. That child had completely surpassed his father and directly suppressed these old fellows.
They had no choice but to admit that they were old.
Half a month later, Ji Zhou City opened.
Lü Bu occupied Ji Zhou.
At the same time, Liangzhou officially began to send troops to Yi Zhou. The leaders of the troops were the generals of the Cangyun Army trained by Xie Lige.
A year and a half later, Liangzhou completely occupied Yi Zhou and the surrounding territories.
By this time, Lü Bu had already appeased the Yuan family. After hearing this news and discussing it with Xie Lige, he brought the little emperor back to Liangzhou City to hold a ceremony. After that, Lü Bu recuperated and did not make any moves. The feudal lords secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Only Cao Cao was still somewhat worried. He knew that Lü Bu's ambition was not limited to this.
Xi Zhicai also knew this at the same time and could not let it go.
As expected, in the second year, Liangzhou sent troops.
In the fourth year, they sent troops again.
When the feudal lords were caught off guard, they were directly attacked by Lü Bu's troops. The entire Three Kingdoms had not yet reached the climax when they were directly intercepted halfway. Xie Lige's plan was carried out very well. Ji Zhou and Yi Zhou faced each other in a straight line, enveloping more than half of the feudal lords.
It carefully wrapped around their bodies like a net. By the time they reacted, the spider silk was already wrapped around their bodies and there was no way to remove it.
Lü Bu led the army from top to bottom and only focused on work. His father and master looked after each other in the rear, so he was naturally very relieved. By the time everything was settled, more than half of the feudal lords had been beaten up by him. At this time, he could not help but sigh at his father's foresight.
There was a big difference between having a brain and not having one.
Fortunately, he had his father to look after him. If it was in the past, at least it would not be so easy.
Another two years passed. At this time, Lü Bu had occupied a lot of territory. Cao Cao also slowly grew. The three Liu Bei brothers that he snatched from Lü Bu's hands had become famous generals under Lü Bu. When Cao Cao heard the names of these three people, his heart ached.
His heart ached.
When he helped Yuan Shao, he never thought that it would end up benefiting his opponent.
In the next year.
Lü Bu proclaimed himself King.
Three months before he proclaimed himself King, he specially ran to Xie Lige and asked for a long time whether his father wanted to be King.
Xie Lige very rationally raised his hand and refused.
The reason was, "Your father has even been an Imperial Tutor. Being King is meaningless."
He closed his eyes and pushed the head in front of him to the side. His tone was calm and distant. Jia Xu and Xuan Xiao at the side looked at the two people's conversation.
Jia Xu chuckled, "Fengxian is going to fight with Cao Cao next."
"I did not think that the last person would be him."
Lü Bu's tone was somewhat surprised.
In the past, there were so many famous aristocratic children. Who knew how many talented people there were? Lü Bu had listed countless people as his fighting targets. The only one he did not consider was Cao Cao. As matters stood, he did not think that this accident would be his only choice.
