"Don't!" The group of people looked at the general in black armor in horror.
Their gazes stopped on the red silk in his hand.
They couldn't help but take a few steps back in fear.
Some people couldn't stand it and ran away first.
Unfortunately, as soon as they started running, they realized that a ball of red silk had been smashed in front of them.
A cold voice sounded in their ears. "Jump!"
The group of people were blocked halfway. They pulled their red silk with a frown and followed the general in black armor to the field in front of them.
The dull sound of the drum slowly sounded.
Everyone glanced at each other, glanced at their own fancy outfits, and averted their gazes one after another.
The general in black armor in front of them was very serious.
His unhurried steps were full of joy.
The people behind him also jumped up with him.
For a moment, the entire hall was replaced by the dance of gods and demons. Under the heavy pressure of the general in front of them, everyone in the field felt worse than death, but they still resigned themselves to their fate and jumped up.
Except for a quiet big and small in a corner.
The sound of the drum slowly rose.
Although Lü Bu was young, he waved the drumstick in his hand vigorously. Every time it fell, it would make a sound. The rapid and coherent sound made people feel very comfortable.
He looked at the people in the field not far away with an expressionless face.
His gaze stopped on the serious face of Xie Lige for a moment and paused.
He looked away without leaving a trace.
"Roar!" The little white lion under Lü Bu's feet raised its head and shouted at him.
Lü Bu heard the sound and lowered his head. His gaze met a fluffy little chubby face. He reflexively looked to the side. As the parent, the big white lion was watching the performance in the field with great interest.
His tail kept sweeping back and forth.
Its eyes were full of excitement.
It turned out that the parent was also watching the performance.
Lü Bu looked at it and felt helpless.
The big white lion didn't have the heart to pay attention to this little guy.
"Good boy, go out by yourself."
He sighed and looked down at the little lion with big black eyes. He coaxed it in a low voice. He held the drumstick in his hand. If he went to a place with intense emotions later, it was inevitable that he would hurt it. For the sake of safety, it was better to coax the curious little lion out first.
The little lion took a step back and roared at him angrily, "Roar!"
Lü Bu ignored him. He turned his head and called out in a low voice, "Like Snow … Like Snow?"
"Roar!"
"Take your son back."
"Roar!" The big lion turned its head without interest and waved its tail perfunctorily.
When Lü Bu saw this, he knew that Big Lion did not want to care about it anymore. He then looked at the curious little lion beside his feet and used his foot to carry it out of the room.
The little lion was still weak and was caught in midair. It couldn't break free from the shackles on its body. It bared its snow-white teeth angrily.
Lü Bu didn't care about its threat at all. He placed it on the ground and retreated. "Let's go to Like Snow."
The little lion angrily slapped his leg with its front paw and ran in the direction of the big white lion angrily.
Lü Bu watched its round back until it reached the big white lion's feet. He raised his head and complained a few words. Unfortunately, the big white lion, who was obsessed with Yangko, was not in the mood to pay attention to him. Its calm blue eyes looked at the people in the field with great interest. It was very excited.
Hearing the roar from below, the big lion immediately felt a little disgusted. It lowered its head and held the little white lion in front of it. It pressed its paw down to stop it from making trouble. Then, it raised its head and continued to watch the performance in the field.
Lü Bu, who had witnessed all this, was silent. He didn't know what to say.
Instead, it was Jia Xu, who had been standing in the corner, who suddenly said, "This beast is very human-like." His tone was full of praise.
Lü Bu couldn't help but frown when he heard the voice. It couldn't be helped. He had suffered too much. When he heard the voice, it became a conditioned reflex. He turned his head and looked at the direction where the voice came from. He happened to meet a smiling scholar in a green robe.
"You didn't go up?" Lü Bu's voice was very calm.
Jia Xu smiled and said, "I felt something was wrong when I entered the hall. Little General, you are too attentive. As the saying goes, if one is unaccountably attentive, there must be something wrong. Naturally, I have to be more careful."
In fact, it was because he was careful that he avoided a disaster.
Jia Xu remembered that Xie Lige followed the generals closely and forced them to dance with the red silk. The generals looked like they wanted to cry but had no tears. Jia Xu's smile deepened, but he was secretly relieved. Fortunately, he had been on guard against Lü Bu's quietness these days. When he saw the latter take the initiative to drink, he immediately raised his guard.
"Pfft!" Lü Bu immediately understood what Jia Xu was thinking. He sneered with a stoic face.
Jia Xu didn't take his expression to heart. The smile on his face didn't fade at all. He was completely unmoved by Lü Bu's provocation. No matter what, he refused to leave the corner.
As smart as Jia Xu was, he had already calmly analyzed the scope of Xie Lige's actions when he was drunk. He realized that even though he was drunk, he still thought about his young son. The red silk in his hand was thrown to his subordinates. The main culprit, Lü Bu, didn't suffer at all.
When he thought about this, Jia Xu stood up and quietly appeared beside Lü Bu.
Lü Bu immediately understood Ren Baqian's plan. He mocked, "Teacher, you are indeed a smart person."
He was mocking Jia Xu for hiding behind a child despite being an adult.
However, Jia Xu completely ignored him. Lü Bu's mocking words were insignificant compared to the cold words he had heard before. Even someone as thick-skinned as Jia Xu wasn't worth mentioning. He completely ignored Lü Bu's mocking words.
Not only that, as soon as Lü Bu finished speaking, Jia Xu immediately opened his mouth and bowed.
"Young general, you flatter me."
Lü Bu was suddenly at a loss for words. His handsome little face under the jade crown became darker and darker. He was so gloomy that it seemed as if water would drip from his face. The drumstick in his hand began to beat harder and harder, and the rhythm became faster and faster. Other than the black-armored general leading the dance in front, who could accurately step on every point, the other generals behind had long been defeated.
Guo Si relied on his good brain to persist for a while. He tried his best to step on every point, but even so, the drumbeats slowly began to speed up. It was as if a storm was raining down on the branches. The continuous drumbeats seemed to beat on everyone's hearts. One after another, the generals behind him collapsed.
Guo Si was one of the last few generals.
All the generals who were so tired that they were lying on the ground gasped for breath. They struggled to get up and leaned against the pillars beside them. Their gazes were filled with admiration as they looked at their general, whose legs and hands had turned into phantoms. They began to cheer wildly in their hearts. As expected of their general.
After Lü Bu vented for a while, he came back to his senses and raised his head to look at the dance floor. He discovered that Xie Lige, who was leading the dance floor, had unknowingly looked at him. His long and narrow eyes were half-closed. It was very obvious that he had not yet woken up from his drunken stupor.
Seeing this, Lü Bu pursed his lips. The drumsticks in his hand slowed down.
Xie Lige's footsteps also slowed down along with the drumbeats. His footsteps coincided perfectly with the drumbeats.
When Jia Xu saw the coordination between the father and son, he clapped his hands and praised, "General's movements are indeed good."
"Hypocrite."
Lü Bu sneered. Just a moment ago, he saw that this person's expression was as if he couldn't wait to escape. When he saw that his adoptive father was looking at him, he immediately changed his words.
Jia Xu pretended that he didn't hear anything. He excitedly watched the black-armored general dance in the dance floor.
Lü Bu changed his mind. Since this was the case, he might as well take advantage of it. He had an idea in his mind. His gaze swept past Jia Xu, who was smiling, for a while. Then, he looked at Xie Lige.
"Adoptive father," Lü Bu raised his voice and shouted at Xie Lige.
Even though Xie Lige was drunk, he didn't forget his son's voice. He replied in a daze, "Fengxian?"
"Someone didn't dance!"
Lü Bu stared at Jia Xu for a while with an expressionless face. After being defeated by the latter's thick skin, he said in a flat voice.
The red silk in Xie Lige's hand paused. When he heard that there were fish that escaped the net, he couldn't help but frown. He remembered that there were only so many people.
"And my master." The child also unceremoniously betrayed his master when he saw Jia Xu's stiff expression.
Jia Xu stiffened for a while and said, "Little General."
Lü Bu turned his head and saw his stiff expression. His mood became better. He waved the drumsticks faster and faster, and the rhythm points fell on the right places.
"Teacher?"
The drunk Xie Lige's reaction was a little slow. When he heard Lü Bu's words, he tilted his head in confusion. His voice was a little muffled, but he didn't stop looking at Jia Xu for a while.
Jia Xu couldn't help but twitch his mouth. Even though he had seen what had just happened, he still couldn't believe that his future master was so … unrestrained.
"That's me."
Xie Lige looked a little confused, as if he was wondering when his son suddenly had a new master. Then, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the smiling Jia Xu. He generously took out a ball of red silk and handed it to him.
"This, this is for you."
Xie Lige's voice was a little muffled because of the wine. He held the red silk in one hand and stuffed it into Jia Xu's arms. "This is for you."
When Jia Xu saw this piece of red silk, his pupils couldn't help but shrink. Just as he was about to run, he found that all the exits he wanted to escape had been sealed. He could only look at the piece of red silk that was being shoved in front of him.
Jia Xu quickly waved his hand and refused. "General, you are too polite."
If he didn't know that the use of the red silk was too shameful, he might have really come. After all, the quality silk was bought very well in Liangzhou. After all, Liangzhou's geographical advantage was the grassland.
One pushed and the other pulled.
The one who pushed really didn't want it.
The one who pulled really wanted to give it to him.
However, strength was still useful in the end. The scholar was useless. The difference between the strength of a scholar and a general was too big. He was defeated in one round.
