Three Kingdoms: God-level selection
Chapter 118
Yanzhou, Dongjun.
Dong'e County.
This small county town is ostensibly in the territory of Yanzhou, but in fact it should be regarded as a common jurisdiction of Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou.
It is located at the junction of the three states. Although it is not rich, it is adjacent to the Yellow River due to its geographical location. It has always been a battleground for military strategists. In the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the early years, nine of the thirteen states in the world responded to Zhang Jiao's call and rose up in rebellion!
In order to open up the connection point of the three states, Dong'e County naturally became the target of the Yellow Turban Army. The county magistrate at that time responded to the uprising, resulting in the loss of the county town and the escape of the county magistrate.
However, they did not defend the city but went out to plunder and fight. Later, the county magistrate took people back to the county town, and then defeated them with the government troops.
After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Dong'e was affected by several other small-scale rebellions.
If it were not for the timely rescue of the court, I am afraid that this small county town would have ceased to exist long ago.
Despite this, due to the inaction of the court, Dong'e did not receive the attention of the government, so it could only become more and more dilapidated.
Su Yan and Dian Wei, along with Guo Jia and a team of personal soldiers, took two days to get here from Luoyang. From a distance, Dong'e was just a small earthen city.
Seeing such a dilapidated appearance, Su Yan couldn't help but ask:"Feng Xiao, are you sure Cheng Li lives here? I think Dong'e County looks like an earthen city."
Guo Jia put down the wine pot beside his mouth, wiped the wine stains, and said helplessly:"I don't know either. I just heard Brother Cheng Li say that he lives here, but he didn't say it's so dilapidated."
"Now it seems that whether he is here or not is a question."
Su Yan shook his head and said,"Forget it, since we are here, let's look for him. Maybe he hasn't left yet."
""Shua shua!"
Guo Jia shook the wine pot in his hand and said with a smile:"It's just right, I've finished my wine, let's go to the restaurant in the city to replenish it, and then go to find Brother Cheng Li"
"You."
Su Yan had no choice but to follow him into the city.
The soldiers guarding the city saw Su Yan and his personal guards and were about to ask questions, but Dian Wei showed his token.
The soldiers saw that it was a senior official from the capital, so they saluted and made way.
They came to a restaurant, Su Yan and Guo Jia dismounted and went in to buy wine, while Dian Wei and others stood guard outside.
"Boss, please fill my wine bottle."
"" Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
The shopkeeper took the wine pot and handed it to the servant, who quickly took the wine pot to the backyard to fill it with wine.
Su Yan looked at the situation inside and found that there were not many customers, so he asked:"Shopkeeper, can I ask you something?"
"Sir, please ask."
The shopkeeper knew that Su Yan was not a simple person as soon as he saw him, and asked in a flattering manner.
Su Yan said:"Excuse me, is there a person named Cheng Li in our Dong'e County?"
After hearing this, the shopkeeper's eyes moved, and he looked up and down at Su Yan and the other person, then nodded and smiled:"You two guests are really lucky"
"Oh? What do you mean?"
Guo Jia asked
"If you ask other people about Mr. Cheng Li, I'm afraid no one knows. There are no more than a handful of people in Dong'a who know about Mr. Cheng, and I happen to be one of them."
The shopkeeper said with a smile
"Why is this?"
"You two may not know that if you ask Mr. Cheng Li, he may not know much, but if you ask Mr. Cheng Yu, everyone in Dong'e knows about him."
"Huh?"
Guo Jia was surprised after hearing this......Did Senior Brother Cheng really change his name?"
He couldn't help but think of the question Su Yan asked two days ago, and hurriedly looked at him and said,"My Lord, how did you know that Senior Brother Cheng changed his name?"
Su Yan smiled and said,"I only heard about Cheng Yu's deeds, so I asked you, and I didn't know that he was called Cheng Li before."
"I see."
Guo Jia nodded, looked at the shopkeeper and asked,"Then I wonder if the shopkeeper knows where Mr. Cheng is now?"
"this....this....."
The shopkeeper looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Su Yan understood what was going on and looked at his personal guard, who immediately took out a copper coin and handed it to him.
The shopkeeper smiled happily when he saw the money in his hand and said,"Sir, Mr. Cheng lives in a house outside the city. I can have someone take you there.""
"Okay, thank you very much."
Su Yan and Guo Jia looked at each other, then took the wine pot and left the restaurant, and followed the servants to Cheng Yu's residence.
They went out of the city and came to a farmhouse. There were a few thatched houses standing in the distance, and outside were a few simple farmlands and cow sheds.
The whole scene was like a pastoral farmhouse.
"Sir, this is where Mr. Cheng lives.
The servant pointed to the farmhouse and said
"OK, thank you very much."
Su Yan asked his personal soldiers to give the servant a string of coins and sent him away, then led Guo Jia into the garden.
There were seeds that had just been planted in the garden, and there were signs of renovation on them, which showed that they had been planted recently.
The ox that was plowing the land was now lying in the shed to rest. It was obvious that it was a little tired after just pulling the plow, and it didn't even open its eyes when Su Yan and the others came.
The two came to the door of the thatched cottage, Guo Jia took a look and then shouted:"Senior Brother Cheng, Senior Brother Cheng, are you there?"
""Rustle, rustle!"
As soon as the voice fell, a slight friction sound came from the thatched house, and then an old man in his fifties wearing coarse linen clothes came out.
"Isn't this Feng Xiao? Why are you here?"
The old man asked Guo Jia in surprise when he saw him.
Su Yan looked at him carefully and found that although the old man looked old, he was very strong and had no white hair except for the temples.
He was wearing coarse linen clothes, but he had a special temperament that made him different from ordinary farming old men.
As for his appearance, I won't say much about it. His face didn't look thin at all, but full and handsome. He was considered a handsome guy of his age.
""Brother Cheng, you are so hard for me to find. I searched all over Dong'e before I found you."
Guo Jia said with some complaints.
"Haha, didn't you find me in the end? With your intelligence, it shouldn't be hard to find me, right?"
Cheng Yu laughed.
""Huh? Who is this?"
At this time, he saw Su Yan standing next to Guo Jia and asked curiously.
Su Yan bowed and said,"Hello, Lord Zhongde. I'm Su Yan, with the courtesy name Ziyang, from Zhuo County, Youzhou."
After hearing his introduction, Cheng Yu's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise at Su Yan's arrival.
"But what about General Su Yan, who has become famous in Luoyang these days?"
He looked at Su Yan and asked with a smile
""Sorry to make you laugh, Lord Zhongde, it's me."
Su Yan said with a smile.
Guo Jia interrupted and said,"Brother, you just let us stand and talk like this?"
Cheng Yu was stunned, then smiled and said,"Good for you, Guo Fengxiao, you are still so sharp-tongued. Come in, both of you!"
