Three Kingdoms

The next day, Lu Bu held a banquet in the camp and invited Wang Tong, Li Xi and Liu Fan. The master of the Zhangjia Fort did not come because he drank too much yesterday and was hungover. Lu Bu did not take it seriously.

Wang Tong and the others did not come empty-handed. They also came with a few people, carrying some items and some drinks. They also laughed as usual when they met Lu Bu.

Lu Bu and Wang Tong were eating, drinking, laughing, and unknowingly they were eating and drinking from afternoon to dusk. Seeing that it was already dark, Wang Tong and the other three left the table drunkenly and went back to rest.

The gate of Zhangjiabao has been closed. Wang Tong and the others called the door but could not open it. The people on duty on the fort knelt down and cried bitterly, saying that they had made an exception yesterday and were dealt with by the fort master. They would not do it again today. If you open the door, your life will be at risk. Please forgive me for this...

Lu Bu, who came to see off the three of them, felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. After all, he was partly responsible for what he said last night. So when he saw Wang Tong and the others jumping to the door but couldn't open it, he asked the three of them to come back. Just rest in the military camp.

Lu Bu drank for two consecutive days, and in his own camp, and received special flattery and praise from Wang Tong and the others, so he let go of his feelings. He was so drunk that he even felt a little dizzy when he walked.

Wang Tong seemed a little drunk, holding hands with Lu Bu, and the two staggered back from the camp gate, smiling brightly and saying loudly that they wanted to sleep with Lu Bu, while chattering and tugging on some With mixed words, the two of them staggered to the tent arranged by Lu Bu. After talking for a while, Wang Tong reluctantly let go of Lu Bu's hand and entered the tent...

The night is quiet, and the hustle and bustle of the day gradually fades away. Both people and horses gradually enter their dreams. However, in such silence, some darkness is slowly spreading...

In the middle of the night, there was a sudden loud noise, and the entire camp was awakened.

"What's going on!" Wei Xu, who was in charge of tonight's patrol, rushed over. When he saw the tent where Wang Tong and others were, he suppressed the fire that was on the verge of erupting, "...this...please ask me. , I don’t know why you are making so much noise here?”

Wang Tong looked panicked, as if he had seen a ghost when he saw Wei Xu. He screamed and looked behind Li Xi to hide.

Li Xi quickly grabbed Wang Tong and comforted him in a soft voice.

Liu Fan stepped forward, looking a little nervous, and said: "This... captain, just now... just now..."

Before Liu Fan finished speaking, he heard Wang Tong shouting in panic from the side: "Someone wants to kill me! Someone wants... to kill me, who is it? Who wants to kill me?!"

"Ah!?" Wei Xu was also shocked when he heard this. Although the camp was not heavily guarded, there were still many rules. Not everyone could move around if they wanted. How could such a thing happen?

"Captain Lieutenant, please come and take a look..." Liu Fan said to Wei Xu as he walked away, "...Brother Mingyu drank too much today and became very thirsty in the middle of the night. He went out of the tent to look for some water, but he came back unexpectedly. At that time, it was such a scene..."

Under the light of the torch, Wei Xu was shocked to see that on the straw bed in the small tent where Wang Tong originally lived, a Kudzu quilt was already torn...

Wei Xu was also an old man in the military formation. At a glance, he knew that the Gebu quilt on this bed was not torn apart by human hands, but was caused by knife and gun attacks.

"Who did this...who did this?" Wei Xu was confused and at a loss.

Li Xi comforted Wang Tong and said: "This camp is heavily guarded and it is difficult for outsiders to enter...Who do you think did this? Who could have done this? A certain person thinks he has no grievances against you. Wuqiu, I don’t know why I resorted to such a vicious move! Since Brother Mingyu escaped by luck, but he is still in the camp, if he wants to kill him, he will do it with a knife and a gun. Why did he do this? ?”

Wei Xu looked at the situation in front of him and didn't know what to say. He could only be dumbfounded.

On the contrary, Liu Fan said from the side: "According to logic, it is not the case... If Marquis Wen wanted to harm us, how could he use such despicable means..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Lu Bu say: "Brother Liu knows someone!"

There was such a big commotion in the camp, so naturally Lu Bu was also alarmed. When he came to the scene and heard Liu Fan's words, he suddenly felt that these three people were more or less sober and sensible, and he felt relieved.

Lu Bu pinched the temples on both sides of his head with his hands. He really had a headache.

Drinking for two consecutive days was too much for even a body as strong as Lu Bu's. What's more, he was woken up just after falling asleep. Such a situation would make anyone feel uncomfortable.

Gao Shun, Cheng Lian and others rushed over one after another, standing aside not knowing how to deal with the strange situation in front of them.

When Wang Tong saw Lu Bu coming, he rushed over, took Lu Bu's hand, and said to Lu Bu with tears in his eyes: "...Marquis Wen...Marquis Wen...But does Marquis Wen want someone's life..." "

Lu Bu persuaded him kindly: "I and Brother Wang hit it off immediately, and we have been chatting happily for the past two days. How could you do such a heartless and unjust thing? Brother Wang, please be safe. I will investigate right away..."

Wang Tong seemed to feel better now, but he still held Lu Bu's hand tightly and wouldn't let go.

Lu Bu had no choice but to let Wang Tong lead him, then turned his head and said in a deep voice: "Who is on duty tonight?"

Wei Xu quickly stepped forward, bowed his hands, and said, "Marquis Wen, I am on duty tonight..."

"It's you..." Lu Bu frowned. Wei Xu and Lu Bu were related by marriage, so they were more or less half of them, so Lu Bu didn't think that Wei Xu dared to do anything behind his back, so he said, "Go and bring all the patrolling guards nearby! "

Not long after, all the soldiers patrolling nearby were brought over and stood waiting to be questioned.

However, how could one possibly ask anything about this matter? These soldiers were all clueless. They neither saw anyone walking in or out, nor who committed the murder. They only noticed this place when there was a noise...

"This..." Faced with this situation, Lu Bu also lost his train of thought and frowned tightly, but he didn't know how to deal with it.

Are all these soldiers killed?

Don't be kidding. Although Wang Tong was right at first sight, Lu Bu would not go to the extent of abandoning his martial arts for Wang Tong. Besides, Wang Tong is not a relative of the emperor. In this world, it doesn't matter if someone dies. ?

If it weren't for the need to take into account the feelings of the Jizhou nobles, Lu Bu would even think of minimizing big issues and dealing with minor issues...

Moreover, the soldiers in front of them may not be participants in the incident. There may be such suspicion, but it is not too big, and according to common sense, the person who did such a thing must have been hiding.

But if it were just a flogging, it would seem a bit too light.

The fact that something like this happened in the camp shows that there is some force in the camp that is not under Lu Bu's control. Today they are here to attack Wang Tong, so who will be attacked tomorrow?

If these people are not found, who will be able to sleep peacefully in the future?

Lu Bu looked at Gao Shun, then at Cheng Lian and Hou Cheng, and finally turned back to Wei Xu, and said slightly irritably: "You! Go and check the camp to see who is walking around after the night curfew... Uncle Ping, go see if there is any damage to the walls around the camp..."

However, Wei Xu and Gao Shun worked hard for a while, but still couldn't find any problem.

"This is strange..." Lu Bu murmured to himself, "No one was found in the camp, and the wall is intact. Could this man... be able to go to heaven and earth?"

Wang Tong had returned to some normality at this time. When he heard what Lu Bu said, he slowly said from the side: "Since the camp wall has not been damaged, it is undoubtedly what the people in the camp did... and this In the camp, except for the warm people...well...that is..."

Wang Tong suddenly changed his face, his hands trembled, and his feet trembled. He pointed at himself, then at Lu Bu and the surrounding soldiers, and said tremblingly: "...Wen Hou, this... this camp Most of the soldiers in the army...but...are they Yuan...Yuan Cha's men and horses?"

Lu Bu nodded blankly.

Wang Tong was trembling more and more, his eyes were dull, and he said: "...Yes, it is Yuan Cheqi who wants to kill me...Why does Yuan Cheqi want to kill me..."

Wang Tong suddenly grabbed Li Xi. His legs and feet seemed to be weak and he could hardly stand. He kept saying: "It's Yuan Cheqi who wants to kill me! But, but... when did I offend Yuan Cheqi?" ...Help me think about it, where exactly did I offend Yuan Cheqi..."

Li Xi quickly supported Wang Tong and said: "Brother Mingyu usually studies behind closed doors, how could he hate Yuan Cheqi for no reason? There must be something fishy at this time..."

Liu Fan also said eagerly: "Brother Mingyu, is it possible that he is too careless? What kind of person is Yuan Cheqi, how could he do anything to us? If he has murderous intentions, I'm afraid you and I will not survive even if we escape this disaster." It won’t be long! In the land of Jizhou, if Yuan Cheqi can’t tolerate me waiting any longer!”

"How could this be so?!" Wang Tong turned to Lu Bu again and said sadly, "...I just like to drink and comment on current affairs occasionally...how could...how could..."

Wang Tong suddenly stopped talking, and then retracted Lu Bu's hand as if he was electrocuted. He looked at Lu Bu up and down again and again, making Lu Bu feel uncomfortable in his heart.

Lu Bu didn't know what was going on. He followed Wang Tong's gaze and looked up and down, but found nothing unusual. He couldn't help but said, "This...Brother Mingyu, what's wrong with this?"

"It's not right, it's very wrong..." Wang Tong turned and left, then hesitated for a moment, then turned back, stood in front of Lu Bu, and said in a low voice, "...Marquis Wen, you and I felt like old friends at first sight...this matter, I shouldn’t talk about something, but... alas... I really... I really don’t know where to start... I’d better not say it..."

After Wang Tong finished speaking, he turned around.

The more Wang Tong is like this, the more curious Lu Bu becomes, and what happened tonight is indeed strange. If you don't understand this, how can you feel at ease? Therefore, Lu Bu quickly grabbed Wang Tong and said, "Brother Mingyu, it's okay to speak out if you have something to say, it's okay..."

Wang Tong struggled twice, but failed to get away, so he sighed and said slowly: "What happened tonight... Marquis Wen, I am the deputy chariot..."

"Secondary car? What do you mean?" Lu Bu didn't quite understand.

"Hit the passenger car by mistake?" Li Xi also said thoughtfully, "...Brother Mingyu said, could it be...this...is unlikely..."

Liu Fan also joined in and said: "Brother Mingyu is usually very smart, but why is he so confused now? Isn't this matter just for you? Why is there such a thing as a second-in-command..."

The three people gathered in a group and immediately chatted among themselves, completely ignoring Lu Bu.

"What is going on!" Lu Bu was also a little anxious and couldn't help shouting.

The three of them froze and stopped.

Wang Tong sighed and said: "...Marquis Wen, I am also a member of the family, so I don't count... Since Marquis Wen is willing to listen, I said it... All the Black Mountain bandits were defeated by your hands. According to common sense, such military achievements I deserve a reward, but... but... alas..."

Li Xi nodded and said: "It's true. Marquis Wen is now a high-ranking official with a salary of two thousand dan. If he can get a higher salary... there will really be nothing left to do... Yuan Chaqi is just a chariot. , only two thousand stones..."

Lu Bu's eyes widened and he was stunned. It's not that he doesn't understand this issue, it's just that he hasn't thought about it at all for a while...

Liu Fan shook his head and said: "Brother Mingyu's words are wrong. How can a person like Yuan Cheqi not tolerate others..."

Li Xi immediately rejected it and said, "Hey, don't forget Han Jizhou!"

Han Fu!

Han Jizhou!

Lu Bu's eyes suddenly changed...

"...Speaking of which, we were the ones who harmed Marquis Wen..." Wang Tong sighed, and then bowed deeply to Lu Bu, "...I hope Marquis Wen will forgive us for our sins..."

"This...this...what crime does Brother Mingyu have?" Lu Bu was completely confused.

Wang Tong shook his head and said: "Marquis Wen is very skilled in martial arts. In ordinary times, I am afraid that ordinary people may not be able to get close... Moreover, the Chinese army's tent has always been an important defense area, and no one is allowed to enter unless it is necessary... However... However,... There is a gap today..."

Liu Fan suddenly realized and pointed to the tent on the side and said: "...It must be so! The gangsters saw that Marquis Wen drank a lot, and heard that Brother Mingyu once said that he wanted to sleep with Marquis Wen... so they thought that this tent... …”

"..." Lu Bu glanced at Wang Tong, then at the tent, his face serious.

Wang Tong forced a smile and said as if he was comforting Lu Bu: "... Wen Houfu is blessed with great fortune and extraordinary skills. I'm afraid these villains will not have a chance next time. Wen Hou will take more precautions and will definitely capture them. ...It's just...if you follow a certain point of view, forget it..."

Li Xi said: "How can this be forgotten? If this happens, we will be living in danger every day!"

"So what can we do?" Liu Fan retorted, "Caught and sent to Yuan Cheqi? Or kill him and show him? It's really a disaster coming from the sky. From now on, we must be careful. …”

Wang Tong tried his best to smile and said: "Wen Hou, maybe Yuan Cheqi just wants to kill someone, and it has nothing to do with Wen Hou... It's just that someone is overthinking..."

Listening, listening, Lu Bu's expression became worse and worse, like the sky before a storm with dark clouds.

After a long time, Lu Bu sighed: "...Brother Mingyu, this matter... I'm afraid it's really like this... If it weren't for Brother Mingyu's guidance, someone... might not know it..."
