After hearing the order, Guan Yu immediately rushed forward, preparing to chop Guan Yu into pieces. However, Guan Yu was already on guard. After all, their martial arts were too different. Guan Yu used his saber to kill everyone one after another.
Bian Xi was still in the fantasy of ambush and kill Guan Yu, but he did not expect that in the blink of an eye, everyone around him was basically killed. He had no choice but to escape around the obstacles. Guan Yu had no choice but to lose his sword and come directly with the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.
Bian Xi took some hidden weapons and tried to use obstacles to attack Guan Yu from a distance. However, Guan Yu was very fast and blocked all the hammers with his knife. He moved forward and jumped high. Bian Xi originally thought that There was a pillar in front of him, but he didn't take it seriously. As a result, Guan Yu's attack was too high, and he cut the pillar and the man in half.
After killing Bian Xi, Guan Yu remembered that the two ladies might still be in danger, so he immediately went to rescue him. He happened to see the two sisters-in-law surrounded by sergeants. They wanted to do something evil. Guan Yu gave a loud shout, and everyone ran around. No one dared Looking back.
Guan Yu dispersed the crowd, then walked into the temple, saluted Pujing, expressed his gratitude, and said: "If you hadn't informed me in advance, master, I'm afraid I would have been killed by the thieves."
Pujing nodded and said: "We are fellow villagers, so there is no reason not to help you. After this incident, I think the temple will no longer be able to accommodate me. I will pack up my gifts and travel to other places. Guan Yu, the donor See you later, please take care." After saying that, he made an amitafu gesture, then turned and left.
Guan Yu bowed to Pu Jing's back, then turned around and asked the two ladies to get into the carriage. He got on the red rabbit horse and prepared to continue moving towards Xingyang.
Wang Zhi, the prefect of Xingyang, and Han Fu were relatives. When he heard that Guan Yu had killed his relative, he was immediately angry. He asked everyone to discuss a way to assassinate Guan Yu, and sent more people to guard the pass.
When Guan Yu arrived, Wang Zhi came out of the seclusion, accompanied by a smiling face. Guan Yu was touched by this kind of kindness, thinking that he had met so many short-sighted people who died under his own sword. The person in front of him would never be the same again. Going through many twists and turns.
Guan Yu told Wang Zhi how he was looking for his brother. The other party was very moved after hearing this and said: "General, the journey has been bumpy, and the two ladies have a hard time riding in the car. Please come to the city, and I will arrange a good accommodation and provide you with the money." Have some good meals, rest for a night, and I’ll see you off personally the next day.”
Guan Yu saw the deep kindness in the other party's eyes and observed that the other party was very attentive. He thought there should be no problem, so he invited his two sisters-in-law to enter the city and make arrangements in the post.
Wang Zhi specially invited Guan Yu to the banquet. Guan Yu thought that he would not be rewarded for his merits, so he refused to attend the banquet. Wang Zhi sent someone to send some good wine and food to the place where Guan Yu was staying. He also ordered: "As soon as General Guan It’s very hard on the road, so we must treat them well.”
Guan Yu did not refuse, but ate the meal. Due to the events of the past few days, his nerves were highly tense and he was tired from the journey. After greeting his two sisters-in-law, he went to his room to rest after dinner. He also asked everyone following him to rest. , feed the horses and prepare to set off tomorrow.
After Guan Yu entered the room, he took off his armor and fell into bed to sleep.
Wang Zhi did not rest. He called for Hu Ban and ordered: "Guan Yu betrayed the Prime Minister and fled Xudu without the Prime Minister's documents. At the same time, he killed the prefects and generals along the way. This is already a capital crime! But he He killed the famous generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou in Hebei. His martial arts skills were unfathomable. We had no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation, so you led more than a thousand people to surround the house where he stayed at night, and prepared torches. At the third watch, Let's go to fire prevention together, and then make a surprise attack. No matter who comes out, just burn them to death or shoot them with arrows. I will also go to meet you with the remaining sergeants."
After receiving the order, Hu Ban counted the sergeants, secretly prepared some dry firewood and some fire starters, and moved them near the house where Guan Yu stayed, preparing to launch a surprise attack at the third watch.
Before it was time to raid, Hu Ban thought, I have heard about Guan Yu's reputation, but I have never seen his appearance. Otherwise, I will go and see it. Otherwise, if I miss this opportunity, I will never see it again.
So when he arrived at the place where he was staying, he asked, "Where has General Guan Yu gone now?"
He replied: "It's the people who are reading in the main hall!"
Hu Ban sneaked into the hall secretly and saw Guan Yu holding his hair in his left hand and holding a book in his right hand. He was reading the book carefully by the oil lamp.
Hu Ban couldn't bear to disturb him and sighed: "What a heavenly being!" Unexpectedly, he lost his voice for a moment and was discovered by Guan Yu.
Guan Yu turned around and found a young man behind him. He didn't recognize him, so he asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Hu Ban quickly came in and said, "I am a subordinate of Wang Zhi, the prefect of Xingyang. My name is Hu Ban."
When Guan Yu heard this, he was very surprised. He remembered the letter from home and asked quickly: "Are you the son of Hu Hua outside the city of Xudu?"
Hu Ban was also very surprised after hearing this and said: "Exactly, do you know my father?"
Guan Yu briefly told the story of how he met Hu Hua, and then ordered someone to take out a letter from the salute, and then handed it to Hu Ban, saying: "This is the letter your father entrusted to me."
Hu Ban took the letter, read it carefully, and sighed: "If I hadn't read the letter, I would have almost killed Zhongliang!"
So he secretly told Guan Yu, saying: "Wang Zhi has evil intentions and wants to murder the general. He sent people to surround this place, and then prepared some fire-starting materials and set it on fire at the third watch. I will open the city gate now, and the general will hurry up." Clean up and leave the city."
Guan Yu was very surprised after hearing this. He did not expect that people along the way would kill him. He quickly put on his armor, then took the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, asked his two sisters-in-law to get in the car, woke up all the entourage, and prepared to leave overnight.
In the process of leaving, Guan Yu saw that there were indeed many soldiers holding torches around him, waiting for his orders.
Guan Yu secretly came to the edge of the city and saw that the city gate had been opened. Guan Yu rushed the vehicles out of the city, while Hu Ban went there to set fire to the city as planned.
After Guan Yu had walked less than a few miles, torches were shining behind him, and a group of people came. Wang Zhi shouted loudly: "Guan Yu, don't leave!"
Guan Yu turned the horse's head and cursed: "Old man, we have no grudges, why did you send people to set fire to burn me to death?"
Wang Zhi said: "It's your fault for killing my relative Han Fu." After saying that, he rode over to challenge Guan Yu, preparing to kill the enemy himself.
Guan Yu didn't answer and ran directly in the direction of Wang Zhi. In just one turn, Wang Zhi was cut into two pieces by Guan Yu from the waist.
Others did not dare to come forward after seeing it, and quickly dispersed.
