"Wait a minute, I...I'll go." Cao Chun raised his calloused palms, gritted his teeth, and changed his mind. No matter from the perspective of his subordinates or the perspective of his tribe, he could not watch something happen to Cao Cao. Chen Liu and the Cao family are too important.
Chu Feng silently recited the spell at the right time, and the fire power delivered by the Small Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan gradually weakened. Slowly, the fire path in front of Cao Chun became smaller, from an unreachable wall of fire to a shallow stream of fire. Chun took the opportunity to ride his war horse out of the fire road and ran towards the grass-covered wilderness. At the same time, four or five generals of Cao's army chased him on their war horses.
Chu Feng did not stop them, but just watched quietly. Soon, only the faint shadows of Cao Chun and others were left on the horizon, blurry and bright under the reflection of the setting sun. A breeze blew, with a hint of surprise. Chu Feng tightened his robe and walked barefoot towards the shore. Standing there was a Xuzhou soldier about eighteen or nineteen years old with acne on his face, his hands It also carried two plump wild ducks with arrows stuck in them.
"Little brother, give one to Pindao"
Chu Feng took a wild duck and a knife from the soldier's hand, walked to the lake, stepped on his shoes, squatted down, and cut open the wild duck's belly. Within a moment, he cleaned it, stood up, and walked to the burning fire road as if there was no one else around. The wild duck was roasted. After a while, the wild duck was completely black.
Lu Bu also followed suit and got a wild duck and roasted it on the fire road.
The soldiers in Xuzhou followed suit one after another. At one time, more than a hundred people were roasting wild ducks beside the fire road. The smell of burnt meat was mixed with the aroma of meat.
Although the scene was a bit weird, it eased the originally tense atmosphere. Many Cao Jun cavalrymen with complex expressions sniffed their noses vigorously. After running all the way, they were already hungry.
At this time, Chu Feng raised his head and looked at the forefront of Cao's cavalry. Several anxious-looking generals of Cao's army and Guo Jia who were standing not far away shook the wild duck in his hand and said casually:
"The reeds by the lake are full of plump wild ducks. You can catch them by yourself. Xiao Pei must have been hungry all the way here. Don't hold on. Pindao is not a murderer, so don't be so nervous."
As soon as these words came out, several Cao Jun generals and Guo Jia relaxed their expressions, looked at each other, and each took their bows and arrows and ran towards the endless reed swamps.
With the officer taking the lead, some of the brave soldiers of Cao Cao jumped for joy and ran over with their things. In this way, more people were brought along. There were not enough bows and arrows, and some skinny fools actually called out to their companions. Touching wild duck eggs in the reed swamps made many older soldiers laugh. Wild ducks rarely lay eggs at this time of year.
But then, it was a slap in the face. A few fools really found a lot of wild duck eggs in the cold lake. In this season, although wild ducks rarely lay eggs, the number of wild ducks in the reed swamps was so large that for a while , attracted many soldiers of Cao Cao to look for it, and all of them were as greedy as crazy.
There is no way, these days, wars are fought every year, every month, taxes are collected every day to recruit young men, and people are killed every day. The fields have long been deserted. A small number of lucky people are still alive, or they have fled to the south and been exploited by another group of landlords. Squeeze, live happily like a dog, or escape to the mountains to survive. Most of them are unlucky. Needless to say, all their families die, leaving the countryside full of broken walls and bones exposed in the wild. There is no cockcrow for a thousand miles, which is a profound portrayal of this dark and bloody era.
Therefore, wherever Cao Cao's army went, let alone getting some poultry from the people, there was very little food. The soldiers could only eat two meals a day, which was gruel and vegetable leaves mixed with various unknown objects. , the mouth has long faded out of the bird. Due to military discipline, he cannot leave the military camp, so he can only endure it. Today, because of Chu Feng, military discipline was liberated, and everyone went crazy. They forgot about fighting for a while, and forgot that they were out to kill people.
Seeing this scene, Chu Feng couldn't help but shake his head. Most of these soldiers who seemed to be killing people were just ordinary people. All they wanted was to have enough food and drink, a wife and children to stay on the bed. For this simple wish, they were like animals. , driven by a group of animals called bastards, doing inexplicable things every day.
Some of these bastards are called descendants of emperors, some are called descendants of nobles, some are called sons of warlords, some are called heroes, some are called careerists, some are called heroes, and some are called famous generals. They are all without exception. Under various banners, they engage in endless troubles and kill the people living in this land before stopping. After a few years, their bastard descendants will ride on the necks of the people unscrupulously. If you pee your shit and take it off, you will be replaced by another gang of bastards, repeating the same story.
Therefore, in addition to resisting foreign aggression and protecting his land and women, other battles are meaningless and nonsense. As a Taoist priest who can travel through all realms, loves peace, and advocates nature, Chu Feng feels that he has the responsibility to guide These ordinary people let those bastards just live like house cats without any fuss.
Thinking of this, Chu Feng couldn't help but look at Lu Bu, who was roasting duck in a serious manner not far away. His tall body was even bigger than others when he squatted down, and his handsome face had an old look that could not be concealed. This bastard who originally ended up in tragedy Dandan, because of his intervention, is still alive and kicking, and can still roast wild duck here.
What will his future be like? With his own help, he will storm off and become powerful. After a lot of massacres, he will dominate the world. It seems reasonable, but in fact it is a bastard, meaningless, and it is inconsistent with Taoism's philosophy of inaction and nature. Violate.
As a modern person deeply influenced by the core ideas of Taoism, Chu Feng had a mature idea after observing the late Han Dynasty during this period, that is, to use his own strength to maintain the current situation of the late Han Dynasty and stop fighting at all. Live an honest life, let the people live and work in peace and contentment, provide incense, and whoever dares to make any more troubles can bring it to Changshengguan to talk about life and ideals. If you can't agree, there is no need to go back. Just throw it into the closed canyon behind the Old Age Peak. Be a savage for life.
Thinking of this, Chu Feng couldn't help but imagine that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, who were originally aloof and capable of deciding the lives and deaths of millions of people, were wearing tattered clothes and holding long sticks, digging out bird's nests in a closed canyon and looking at the sky. Daze scene. Subconsciously, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Lu Bu happened to see this scene when he raised his head inadvertently. Lu Bu had never seen Chu Feng show such an expression before and asked curiously: "Chief Immortal, what did you think of that made you so happy?"
Chu Feng put away his smile and stared at Lu Bu's old and handsome face. Without saying a word, he only lowered his head at the fearless number one general.
"Fengxian, as the person Pindao relies on most in the world, it is necessary for you to learn Pindao's thoughts first." Chu Feng put down the roast duck in his hand and said solemnly.
