Chapter 4 I'm coming in!
Speaking of which, Wen Ji was really afraid of Cheng Yu.

It's normal that anyone who has a perverted murderer next to them will be very scared.

Cheng Yu is strategic and scheming. He is not naturally inclined to kill, but for him, as long as he can achieve his goal, killing people is no different from killing dogs. Once he becomes proficient in killing, it doesn't matter.

Although Wen Ji is a fellow countryman of Cao Cao, Cao Cao is now experiencing the most intensive moment of being slapped in the face in history - first, a big brother like Zhang Miao who shared weal and woe and an old acquaintance like Chen Gong who made great contributions to Cao Cao's occupation of Yanzhou joined forces. He stabbed Cao Cao, and then Wei Zhong, whom Cao Cao single-handedly recommended and said he would never betray, stabbed Cao Cao. After that, in the Battle of Puyang, Cao Cao laughed and said that Lu Bu was innocent, but was beaten to a pulp by Lu Bu and was almost captured alive.

Which one of Zhang Miao, Chen Gong and Wei Zhong is not closer than Wen Ji?

When Cao Cao was angry, Wen Ji could only keep his tail between his legs. Even if Cheng Yu's servants came to report that Cheng Yu was very angry and told Wen Ji and Xu Shu to get out, Wen Ji did not dare to say anything and could only hang his head and hum. With a sound, he patted Xu Shu's back sheepishly:

"Yuan Zhi, I made you laugh. That's what Butcher Cheng is like. He has a perverse temper and is arrogant because of his talent. If Cao Gong doesn't like him, I will definitely humiliate him."

Xu Shu's face showed a hint of loneliness. He saluted Wen Ji long and said with a wry smile:
"If it weren't for me, how could I let Duke Wen suffer this humiliation? Anyway, if I don't want to make Duke Wen look bad, I will just get out if Mr. Cheng tells me to get out."

As he said this, Xu Shu shook his shabby Confucian robe and fell to the ground, which made Wen Ji and Cheng Yu's servants stare straight in the eyes.

No, no, no, what are you doing!
Wen Ji hurriedly tried to stop him, but Xu Shu actually started to roll slowly in a very standard posture, slowly but firmly rolling to the threshold, then climbed over the threshold, and continued to roll inward.

"Stay, stay, stay, no, stay!" Wen Ji stood next to Xu Shu and was at a loss what to do. Are you really going to get out of here?

Cheng Yu had already lit a fire in the courtyard, grabbing a bloody dog ​​leg and roasting it. When he saw Wen Ji's roar coming from the door, he looked up and was stunned on the spot. The dog leg in his hand fell into the fire with a splash, splashing Many sparks fell on his strong chest.

A person is slowly rolling, moving slowly but surely towards himself.

What shape is this?

Even though Cheng Yu was well-informed, he was still stunned at the moment.

Seeing Wen Ji and his servants staggering in and looking at him awkwardly, Cheng Yu immediately realized the identity of the visitor.

He painfully pulled out the roasted and blackened dog legs from the fire, snorted and shouted:

"Xu Shu, get up."

Xu Shu sat up from the ground, knelt down and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Fu."

Cheng Yu snorted, his horrifying gaze shrouded Xu Shu, and he said in a cold voice:

"Don't think that I don't know. You want to use this method to separate Zifeng and me, right?"

Xu Shu nodded and said without blushing or out of breath:
"Exactly!"

Cheng Yu: ? ? ?
This time Cheng Yu was really frightened.

how?Cheng is not scary enough now?

Does anyone dare to joke in front of me?

Before Cheng Yu could get angry, Xu Shu calmly said:

"I know that Duke Wen brought me here, and Duke Cheng was so angry. Apparently he blamed Duke Wen for not bringing me here.

No matter what Xu said after that, Cheng Gong must have thought that a certain faction was talking nonsense and deliberately lured the Duke and others to death.

If this is the case, I might as well pretend to be shocked and admit that I am deliberately trying to alienate the public. I would rather let Mr. Cheng believe that I am deliberately trying to alienate him. I hope Mr. Cheng can listen to me patiently and don't get angry. "

Cheng Yu was stunned, and when he reacted, his hands were already a little uncomfortable due to the heat of the dog's legs.

A little brave!
He threw the dog leg to Xu Shu, picked up another one himself, and said while grilling the meat:

"Don't bite your tongue, but it's okay to say it. Could it be that I, Cheng Yu, am such a violent and ignorant person?"

Seeing Cheng Yu's attitude, Wen Ji finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

He originally expected to be scolded by Cheng Yu when he entered the door, but he didn't expect that Xu Shu would retreat in order to advance, but instead used words to force Cheng Yu to stop him.

Haha, isn’t Cheng Yu violent?Who can a normal person do such a thing?
Xu Shu knelt down and sat opposite Cheng Yu, picked up the roasted black dog leg, bit it hard, and said in a deep voice: "I was a Yingchuan ranger. My parents died. I fled to Jingzhou in a military disaster. Then I met this thief named Mr. Ai.

He said that he was a person from a thousand years later and could predict what would happen after his death. He persuaded me to come to Yanzhou, saying that as long as I went to Duke Cao, I would be of great use.

Unexpectedly, when he came to Yanzhou, he was immediately discovered by Cheng Gong and imprisoned.

He used witchcraft to open the cell door last night and instigated the refugees to flee. After we escaped all the way out of the city, he told me that this person was a yellow turban thief. He originally wanted to seduce the head of Guizhou and become an enemy of Cao Gong, but was discovered by Cheng Gong and had no choice but to He could first escape to his hometown, Liangshan, and gather a group of remnants to prepare for the winter attack. "

Cheng Yu nodded and said thoughtfully:
"You said they saved a lot of food money? How do you know these people saved a lot of food money?"

Wen Ji was stunned for a moment when asked this question, and then asked hurriedly:
"How did Yuan Zhi know that they had hidden a lot of food money?"

Xu Shu smiled and said:
"If Mr. Cheng can see through the tactics of the Yellow Turban Thief, he must know what he is doing."

When Xu Shu was traveling in the world, his master once told him that the higher the status, the more arrogant they are, because they have always been too successful. As long as you tell them something, they will naturally have their own ideas, and then you only need to cater to them. , can speak to their hearts.

Cheng Yu didn't think about the Yellow Turban Thief at all yesterday. He just didn't bother to talk to these rangers and simply ordered them to be killed.

Now when Xu Shu said it, he tasted it carefully and felt that something was wrong.

Yes.

I, Mr. Cheng, have such a bad reputation that even Duke Cao has to go to Dong'a. These people are not from aristocratic families. Why don't they avoid me when they know that I am in Juancheng?
The theory that Mr. Ai can predict the future is also an old trick of the Yellow Turban thieves. He must want to take advantage of me to kill these refugees and gather them to cause chaos.

Our army was weak at the moment, but they chose a good time. Fortunately, I managed to catch them in prison, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Cheng Yu broke out in a cold sweat, his face turned pale, and he felt deeply frightened.

Damn it, when I saw that man was so obese, why did he only think about eating and never thought about why?
Of course, Cheng Yu couldn't admit that he didn't recognize the identity of the Yellow Turban remnants at all yesterday. It was simply because he was too lazy to pay attention to Xu Shu that he sent them to prison and prepared to slaughter them. He could only calm down for a moment:

"Yes, I saw that man was so obese yesterday and I knew something was wrong, so I took him into custody and am awaiting detailed questioning.

Er... Yuan Zhi came with him, so I naturally regarded him as a remnant of the Yellow Turbans. Please don't blame Yuan Zhi. "

Wen Ji suddenly understood and patted Xu Shu's back excitedly:

"If it weren't for Yuan Nao, I wouldn't have known there was a den of thieves nearby!"

Xu Shu breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still tense.

He knew that Cheng Yu had begun to trust him a little, but this was still far from enough. If he wanted to make Cheng Yu fall into his trap, he had to plan carefully and never reveal any flaws.

Xu Shu said slowly:

"The thief said he was going to Liangshan to take refuge temporarily. He also said that there were many thieves there, ready to take advantage of... to rise up."

"Hmph, Yuan Zhi said it doesn't matter. The thief said he wanted to take advantage of me to brutally kill people and start a rebellion, right?"

Xu Shu nodded and said with a wry smile:
"Of course I couldn't listen to this kind of nonsense. He persuaded me to become a thief, but I tied him up and quickly brought him back so that Master Cheng would know."

Cheng Yu thought about it, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought it was good.

It's getting colder and colder, and it's going to snow soon. If I were a thief, I should come to the city first, and then gather the refugees to cause trouble, and maybe even contact Lu Bu.

A wise man worries too much, and Cheng Yu is a typical wise man.

The more he thought along Xu Shu's train of thought, he thought that behind the Liangshan bandits might be the Five Taishan Bandits, and behind the Taishan Five Bandits was Lu Bu. After Cao Cao refused Yuan Shao to send hostages to Ye City, Lu Bu might also hook up with Yuan Shao. Liu Bei may be ready to make a move, and this winter will only be even more difficult.

Cheng Yu pretended not to care and continued to roast the dog legs seriously, but the beads of sweat on his forehead couldn't be faked.

Xu Shu struck the railroad while it was hot:
"To ensure that you are safe, you can ask the refugees to see if what I said is true.

If we torture the remnants of the Yellow Turbans again, everything will have its own explanation. "

Ask, everything I say is true, you have guessed it yourself, and asking again will only confirm your judgment.
