On the other side of Xuzhou Langya, Xia Houyuan, who came to pick up Cao Song on Cao Cao's order, finally came to Cao Song's house in Xuzhou Langya.
"Hey, Miaocai, you are finally here!" Seeing Xia Houyuan coming, Cao Song was relieved. Ever since the last time the immortal said that he would die on the way to Yanzhou, he has been on tenterhooks these days. I don’t dare to go anywhere and stay at home every day.
The Cao family and the Xiahou family have the same roots. It turns out that he is also a member of the Xiahou family. Later, he was adopted by his adoptive father Cao Teng. It can be said that he is Xiahou Yuan's biological uncle. It is a hundred peace of mind to have Xia Houyuan escort him to Yanzhou. ah!
"Uncle! Mengde was worried about his safety, so he specially sent me to pick him up to go to Yanzhou to enjoy his life." Xia Houyuan shouted to Cao Song.
"Okay, okay, let's go now!" Cao Song had a smile on his face. He had packed his things a long time ago. He knew that Cao Cao would send someone to pick him up when he knew that he would die on the way to Yanzhou. He was really sick. What a good son!
"By the way, uncle, has anything happened in Xuzhou recently?" On the way back to Yanzhou, Xia Houyuan asked Cao Song on his horse. His lord wanted to take Xuzhou, so it would be good for him to understand the situation first.
Cao Song was sitting in the carriage, lifting the curtain and thinking: "I really don't know what happened in Xuzhou, but there have been some strange things happening in Langya County recently that have made people panic."
"Oh? What is going on?" Xia Houyuan suddenly became interested and curious about what happened.
Cao Song looked around subconsciously, and then whispered to Xia Houyuan: "Langya County has been haunted recently. There will be will-o'-wisps floating in the sky every night these days. Some people say that a peerless evil ghost has come to Langya County." ! Now people don’t dare to go out at night.”
Xia Houyuan listened carefully to Cao Song's words. He might not have believed it before, but now he might be the evil ghost from Langya County who Cao Song said!
Immortals have been born, so it’s not too much to say that an evil ghost has arrived. I need to tell the lord about this when I get back.
On the other side, Liu Bei and Guan Yu from Langya Yangdu traveled day and night and finally arrived at the Langya County in Xuzhou that Tao Qian mentioned.
"Old man, please tell me how to get to the Zhuge family." Liu Bei stopped an old man and asked him.
"You're talking about the Zhuge family. Their family has left Yangdu a long time ago and is no longer here." Just after the old man finished speaking, he stopped talking to Liu Bei and wanted to leave.
left? Not here. When Liu Bei heard the old man's words, his expression suddenly turned sad. He had come here in vain. Could he really be going to Xiangyang?
Liu Bei stopped the old man who was about to leave: "Can I tell you whether the Zhuge family has any relatives in Yangdu?"
Liu Bei asked his relatives about the whereabouts of the Zhuge family.
The old man glanced at the sky, with some anxiety and impatience on his face, pushed Liu Bei away and replied, "I don't know, I don't know."
Watching his father-in-law leave, Liu Bei looked up to the sky and roared to vent his grievances: "Ah! God won't help me Liu Bei!"
From Pingyuan County to Beihai, and then from Beihai to Langya, only he and Guan Yu knew the bumps in the process.
"Brother, have you noticed something is not right here!" Guan Yu held up the Qinglong Yanyue Sword with both hands and looked around cautiously.
Hearing what Guan Yu said, Liu Bei suddenly felt that there was an indescribable weirdness here, but Liu Bei couldn't tell what kind of weirdness it was.
"Creak..." The sound of closing a window not far away caught Liu Bei's attention. Although the sound was very small, it still caught Liu Bei's attention.
"sound!"
"Yes! It's the sound!"
The strange thing here is that it is so quiet!
Hearing the sound of closing a window not far away, Liu Bei finally realized something was wrong. The city was so quiet, so quiet that there wasn't even a barking dog.
"Second brother, something strange must have happened in Yangdu." Liu Bei suddenly thought of the hurried-looking old man who just said to Guan Yu.
At this moment, a ball of fire suddenly floated in the sky.
"Will-o'-the-wisp!"
Seeing the "will-o'-the-wisp" in the sky, Liu Bei finally understood why the old man was in a hurry just now and why the city was so quiet!
This place is haunted!
With a serious expression, Guan Yu set up his Qinglong Yanyue Sword in front of Liu Bei. His Qinglong Yanyue Sword was possessed by a "green dragon" and could kill demons!
"Brother, it's getting late now, and there are demons appearing in the world. Why don't we wait until tomorrow to inquire about the whereabouts of the Zhuge family." Guan Yu suggested to Liu Bei.
"What the second brother said is true. Let's find a place to rest for the night before making any plans." Liu Bei looked at the "will-o'-the-wisp" in the sky and agreed with Guan Yu's suggestion. This was the first time he encountered such a thing as a demon, so he had to be more cautious.
Qingzhou is two hundred miles away from Pingyuan County, outside the valley.
"Don't lie to me, or you will reap the rewards!" Zhang Fei threatened Chen Shan with an angry look.
Zhang Fei learned from the interrogation of Chen Shan that the two of them were members of Guan Hai, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army. It was Guan Hai who sent them to inquire about the defense situation in Pingyuan County in order to obtain the potato fairy grown by his elder brother.
After receiving the news, Zhang Fei immediately ordered three thousand elite soldiers to stab Guan Hai into several big holes. He was really impatient to dare to take anything from his elder brother!
At the same time, Zhang Fei also found that marching and fighting was also a serious matter, and there was no need to copy books, which made Zhang Fei even more happy.
"My general, I don't dare to lie to you anymore even if I have ten nerves. Our Commander Qu really brought five thousand soldiers and horses to hide in this ravine. We only need to report back the defense information of Pingyuan County. Yes!" Chen Shan gently slapped himself in the face and admitted his mistake to Zhang Fei,
"Okay, I will believe you for once. If you dare to lie to me, I will poke a big hole in you first!" Zhang Fei shook the Zhangba snake spear in his hand and continued to threaten Chen Shan.
"Don't dare, don't dare." Chen Shan waved his hands quickly and said. He really didn't dare to deceive Zhang Fei anymore. This man didn't play according to the routine a few years ago. His happiness and anger all depended on his mood. He might really hurt himself. Poke a big hole.
"Send the order, let the whole army rest, and attack on time at Yin Shi tonight (four o'clock in the morning)!" Zhang Fei immediately rested the whole army. Yin Shi is the time when the sky is slightly bright, and it is also the time when people are sleepiest and relax their vigilance. It is also the time for the attack. The best time, this is all from his previous battlefield experience. Although he has a bad temper, he still knows how to reduce the maximum losses during marching and fighting.
"yes!"
Centurion Zhang Qiong immediately began to give orders after receiving the order.
As time goes by, time slowly comes to Yinshi.
"Hey, wake up, wake up!" The person on duty began to wake up the sleeping people one by one.
Zhang Fei's soldiers began to open their eyes one after another to wake themselves up. Officers at all levels began to manage the assembly of their men. Soon, three thousand soldiers and horses were assembled and set off for Guan Hai's camp.
