When Yu Yi saw someone else, he felt alert and fearful. He quickly stood up and clenched his iron halberd in his hand, ready to go forward to check. Guan Yu quickly blocked Yu Yi behind him and shook his head.
Guo Chang looked ahead, not noticing these things, and called out: "Son, please come quickly to see the general."
Then he turned back to Guan Yu and said, "This is my son!"
Guan Yu asked him where he came back from and replied: "I just went hunting!"
The young man seemed a little surprised when he saw the guests. He randomly followed his father's instructions to pay homage to Guan Yu and Yu Yi, and then went down to the hall.
Guo Chang cried and said: "I was working and studying at home, but I just gave birth to this son. I don't do my job properly and like to go hunting every day. What a misfortune for my family."
Guan Yu said: "In today's troubled times, if you are proficient in martial arts, you can still achieve fame. How can you say it is unfortunate?"
Yu Yi also expressed his own opinion, saying: "In today's troubled times, it is difficult to achieve fame, but you can serve the four directions and have a strong military force like my second brother. Killing Yan Liang and Wen Chou is also famous, so how can you say that hunting is not a serious job?" Well, that’s impossible to say.”
After hearing this, Guo Chang nodded and said: "If he is willing to practice martial arts carefully, then he can be called an ambitious person, but hunting is just a hobby for him. He spends most of his time wandering around and has done nothing for many years. , that’s why I’m very worried.”
Guan Yu sighed after hearing this, and Yu Yi could only shake his head. After all, it was not good to get too involved in other people's housework.
Several people chatted until the evening, and the night was already very late, so they reluctantly left. Guan Yu and Sun Qian were preparing to go to bed, and Yu Yi was also preparing to find a place to sleep. Suddenly, they heard the sound of horses coming from the backyard.
Guan Yu quickly called his followers, but no one responded. They looked at each other and went out together with their weapons.
When they came to the horses, they saw Guo Chang's son falling to the ground and screaming in pain, while his entourage was fighting with the people in the manor.
Guan Yu asked the reason, and his entourage replied: "It was said that Guo Chang's son was trying to steal the red rabbit horse, but he was kicked down by the horse. We heard the sound and came over, and got up to patrol. As a result, the villagers came to find trouble, so we fought with them. fight."
After hearing this, Guan Yu was very angry and said angrily: "You dare to steal my red rabbit horse!" He was about to teach Guo Chang's son a lesson.
Yu Yi quickly stopped and whispered in Guan Yu's ear: "Let's forget about this matter. After all, we live in someone else's manor. It is somewhat unjustifiable for you to beat someone else's son. Besides, the red rabbit and horse are still there. "
Guo Chang heard the sound and rushed over, admonishing: "This unscrupulous son of mine has done something wrong and deserves death! But my wife just likes this son and hopes that the general can be merciful and forgive him."
Guan Yu said: "Your son is indeed useless. What you just told us is true. Only father knows his son. I see your face, so I will forgive him for the time being." Then he ordered his followers to watch the horses. Let all the dealers disperse and ask Shang Yuyi and Sun Qian to rest together.
Yu Yi lamented on the way that it is better to have a society governed by law. If the old man was highly skilled in martial arts, how could he swallow his anger and let his second brother do this?
On the second day, Guo Chang came out with his wife to apologize to Guan Yu, saying: "Our son offended the general, and I am very grateful to the general for forgiving him."
Guan Yu nodded, thinking about what Yu Yi had said, and thought it would be okay to help Guo Chang educate him, so he said: "Let him come out, and I will teach him well."
Guo Chang sighed: "We also want to find him. At the fourth watch last night, he took a few rogues to who knows where."
So Guan Yu said goodbye to Guo Chang, sent his two sisters-in-law to the carriage, and left the manor. Together with Sun Qian and Yu Yi, he protected the carriage and walked along the mountain road. Within thirty miles, he saw hundreds of people coming out from behind the mountain. The two leaders were riding horses. Looking from the front, the man's head was wrapped in a yellow scarf and he was wearing a war robe. The man behind him was the man from last night, Guo Chang's son.
Yu Yi stood up, pointed his iron halberd at Guo Chang's son and said, "Are you planning to bring in reinforcements and ask for trouble?"
Guo Chang's son said: "Seeing my brother still so arrogant, I will let you know what a master is."
Yu Yi smiled and said: "You stole the red rabbit horse just to honor your master?"
The man in yellow turban stood up and said: "I am a subordinate of General Zhang Jiao, the Lord of Heaven. The red rabbit and horse are left here to preserve your whole body."
Yu Yi laughed and said: "It turned out to be Zhang Jiao's subordinates, and I was the one who sent him to death. When he died, he regretted it very much."
The man in yellow turban nodded and said, "Since we are of the same sect, why don't you snatch the red rabbit horse over?"
Yu Yi said: "You ignorant little thief, since you are a thief with Zhang Jiao, don't you know the reputation of the four Taoyuan brothers?"
The man in yellow scarf said: "I have only heard of a red-faced man named Guan Yu, but I have never seen his face. Who are you?"
Guan Yu immediately handed the Qinglong Yanyue Sword to Yu Yi, then untied his headband and released his long beard.
Unexpectedly, the man jumped off his horse, grabbed Guo Chang's son by the hair, walked up to Guan Yu, and dedicated him to him personally.
Guan Yu asked his name and said: "My name is Pei Yuanshao. After Zhang Jiao's death, I have no master. I have become a thief in this mountain forest and have been lurking here. This man came to report to me this morning and said he was a guest. , riding a thousand-mile horse, stayed at my home, and discussed with me to rob the horse together. I did not expect to meet the general here, it is really rude."
Guo Chang's son finally knew Guan Yu's true identity. He immediately urinated and knelt down to beg for his life.
Yu Yi said: "You have very poor eyesight. Your father is always so polite in front of my second brother. Can't you tell?"
Guan Yu glanced at Guo Chang's son and said disdainfully: "For your father's sake, I will bypass you this time. Get out of here!"
Guo Chang's son held his head and ran all the way.
Guan Yu said to Pei Yuanshao: "You have never met me, how do you know my reputation?"
Pei Yuanshao explained: "There is a mountain more than 20 miles away from this place, called Woniu Mountain. There is a man on the mountain named Zhou Cang. He has the power of a thousand catties in his hands and a majestic appearance. He was originally a general under Zhang Bao. After Bao died, he became king in the mountains and forests. He told me about your reputation many times and said that there was no way for him to meet you."
Yu Yi smiled and said: "It seems that you all admire my second brother very much."
Guan Yu said: "You have been bandits in Shanglin for a long time. This is not a place where heroes can survive for a long time. You should change your ways in the future and stop being thieves in the mountains and forests."
Pei Yuanshao was educated and quickly thanked him.
