Chapter 121 The Battle of Julu (3)
Ding Hua was dead. When he received the news, Lu Bu did not have much joy, but had a hint of regret.
Just imagine, if Ding Yuan handed over the huge family business to Ding Hua in the future, and Lu Bu's speed of picking up Bingzhou would be inversely proportional to the IQ of the Bingzhou rulers...
The name Ding Muzhe was also remembered by Lu Bu for the first time, which was a memory that removed the traces of history. Ding Muzhe was neither a famous historical counselor nor a dark incarnation hidden under the fog of history, but his actions made many people remember him.
Small people cannot make a counterattack, while big people cannot make a counterattack.
Therefore, although Lu Bu felt that this guy was a bit unpleasant and disrupted his long-standing plan, he decided to give him a chance, a real chance.
Therefore, Ding Muzhe, who was still in prison the moment before, was rescued by Lu Bu's orders without knowing it.
At this moment, he stood in front of Lu Bu, lowered his head, neither sad nor happy, and had no expression on his face.
"Some people are alive, he is dead. Some people are dead, he is still alive. Which kind of person do you think you are?" Lu Bu's eyes were burning and asked Ding Muzhe, who was one head lower than him.
Ding Muzhe suddenly paused all over his body, his eyes glanced at Lu Bu with a calm expression like a trapped beast for a long time, and said indifferently: I don’t know!
Lu Bu didn't care and said slowly: In my opinion, you are the first type of person and can only become the first type of person, because this is the way you have taken. This is the price everyone has to pay for his behavior.
Ding Muzhe's cold expression became even stronger, and a hint of indomitableness filled his face: I never regretted it, nor would I care about any price, because some people deserve to die!
Without saying a word, Lu Bu said: Some people deserve to die. But because of some people, they are deeply trapped in death. I don’t know if this person should be said to be commendable or have a brain disease.
"Yes, I'm talking about you. Ding Yuan is your enemy, but he is not a simple person, because he is the governor of Bingzhou and because of his vast power. You killed Ding Hua, the heir of Ding Yuan, with Ding Yuan's connections in the officialdom. Do you think there is still a place for you in this world? Ding Yuan will kill you at all costs and at all means. Even all your relatives and friends are not spared."
Lu Bu walked towards Ding Muzhe step by step. Ding Muzhe only felt a huge wave of oppression coming, which made him suffocate.
"No, with Ding Yuan's personality, he will never implicate innocent people. At most, he will use my life to pay tribute to Ding Hua!" Ding Muzhe bit his tongue hard, forced himself to calm down, and said.
Lu Bu smiled, but his laughter did not hide the sarcasm.
"Hahaha, I really don't know how you, who is still ruthless, have such a naive and low-end idea? Don't you hear that God wants to destroy people, you must first make them crazy, and Ding Yuan only has a blood nephew. How crazy do you think he will be?"
The elderly father was cut down in a cold pool of blood by a cruel soldier, his head full of black hair, and his mother, who was still charming, was trembling under Ding Yuan in humiliation, and was mourning. The childhood sweetheart girl was sold to a kiln by Ding Yuan, and was ruined every night...
Scenes of tragic scenes appeared before Ding Muzhe. For the first time, sweat as big as beans were left on his forehead. His parents and relatives, and her were his reverse scales. He could not imagine that if it was...
"Please give it to me by the general! How should I do it?" Ding Muzhe asked in a difficult tone.
Lu Bu's eyes were burning and he said in a deep voice: Let me see your true sincerity!
As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Muzhe's face, who had always been arrogant, changed a few times, then his eyes showed firmness, and he knelt on the ground with a thud, and kowtowed three times in a row: Please hand it to me!
"Are your life and your family's lives worth it in your heart?" Lu Bu took a deep breath and made his heart hard. He wanted to dispel the arrogance in Ding Muzhe's heart in one fell swoop, and even sow a seed of awe in Ding Muzhe's heart.
Ding Muzhe didn't say a word, kowtowing constantly, believing in his heart that Lu Bu would not stop, and would never stop, even if his head was bleeding...
Lu Bu counted silently in his heart. It was not until Ding Muzhe had slapped him seven times again that Lu Bu personally helped Ding Muzhe up and said warmly: Get up, I will give you a clear way, become my person, become my shadow in my secret, and I will solve all your concerns!
Faced with Ding Muzhe's puzzled look, Lu Bu smiled confidently: Ding Yuan is a giant in your eyes, but in my Lu Bu's eyes, he is just a big cat with paper levels, and the way to solve problems is different. For me, Ding Yuan is not enough!
Ding Muzhe couldn't help but be infected by the confidence emitted by Lu Bu. He had never seen anyone with a more drastic and calmer confidence than Lu Bu. Even in Ding Yuan, he had never seen it.
"Why do you want to help me, or what do you like about me? I never believe in appreciation for it for no reason, nor do I believe that God will lose money." Ding Muzhe asked the question buried in his heart.
"Does I have to find a far-fetched reason to appreciate someone? Then, the reason I admire you is because I like you, because I see you as cruel and sarcastic, because I see you as cold and arrogant. It is because all your shortcomings are precisely the shining advantages in my eyes." Lu Bu smiled mysteriously and said.
Ding Muzhe was silent after hearing Lu Bu's words. He seemed to understand Lu Bu's words, but he knew: He had to understand slowly, and he had to understand quickly!
"What do you tell me, what do I do?" Ding Muzhe stopped talking redundant nonsense.
"Your life is saved by me, so your life no longer belongs to you. If what you do is not satisfied with me, I will take it back at any time. From now on, your code name is Ming, and you will call me with the name of the Lord."
"Yes, big, sir!" Ding Muzhe, also known as Ming, quickly took on the role.
"You will set off tomorrow. Take the letter I wrote and go to Li Xuyang from Taiyuan Prefecture to cooperate with you. I have only one requirement to establish the Nether Society, so that the Nether Society can grow and grow, and make the Nether Society the strongest killer organization and intelligence center. I will write one of my most important secrets, that is, the method of refining human skin masks, on a piece of parchment. I believe it will be of great use to the expansion of Nether Society!" After Lu Bu said that, a big rock in his heart fell to the ground.
I had never had the right staff before, nor had I enough strength to run the killer organization and intelligence center, but since I heard about Ding Muzhe, this idea came to his mind.
Ding Muzhe: Ming is destined to be born for the night and destined to die for the night.
Ding Muzhe silently wrote down Lu Bu's words.
"Also, I will write a letter alone, asking Li Xuyang to help you rescue your family, and Yunzhong will be your home in the future!" Lu Bu's steps went further and further, but the words he left made Ming remember this kindness...
The next day, Ming left alone. His face had changed and his clothes had changed. From then on, there was no Ding Muzhe in the world, only Ming. Perhaps Ming would have to live with a human skin mask for his whole life......
A few days later, Tu Yihang's thousands of Taiyuan Army did not say a word, as if the world had disappeared. Dong Zhuo, who was so angry that he wanted to use the Taiyuan Army to curse in the camp.
Dong Zhuo, who knew that they were likely to leave because of Ding Hua's death, sneered and couldn't help but have a weak impression of the Taiyuan Army.
However, Lu Bu and Cao Cao, who came to serve as reinforcements, didn't care what Dong Zhuo, who had a ruthless idea, thought in his heart.
Because they were busy saying goodbye, at least on the surface.
The three thousand wolf cavalry, led by Lu Bu, blocked Cao Cao's entire family and 1,600 soldiers.
"Brother Meng De, you really decided to leave. Before you make achievements, how could you be seen in the vast world? The court needs you, the Han Dynasty needs you, and I need you even more!" Lu Bu stood in front of Cao Cao's horse and asked Cao Cao to stay with sincerity.
"Brother, get out of here! I have figured it out. With my team of more than a thousand people, it will not have any impact on the battle situation at all. Alas, there are fierce and arrogant Dong Zhuo who repeatedly suppress and bully me. This credit is really bad." Cao Cao sighed.
Lu Bu nodded with emotion and said ruthlessly: Dong Zhuo is really hateful. Brother Meng De is a court official at least. He came to support thousands of miles away because of his enthusiasm for loyalty to the emperor and serving the country. However, Dong Zhuo cut off the finger of Brother Meng De without any consideration for his status and family background.
When Cao Cao saw Lu Bu mention Dong Zhuo, a ferocious murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but he said in his mouth: Dong Zhonglang and I are just a misunderstanding, I don’t care about this. Later, Dong Zhonglang wiped out the Yellow Turbans and rose to prominence, and he might even ask him to support him.
"Brother Meng De really has the gentlemanly style of Mengchang in ancient times. He is as tolerant and kind as Brother Meng De, there are not many in this world!" Lu Bu sighed sincerely.
Cao Cao's face was calm and his heart was twitching, but when he carefully observed Lu Bu's expression, he felt that he was not as if he was sarcastic to him.
"I will leave after sending my army a thousand miles. I have decided to stay, and I will definitely not stay." Cao Cao's rough hands stroked his short black beard and cut off the railway.
Lu Bu turned sideways slightly and said aloud: Since Brother Meng De is determined to leave, I will never block the way without any ignorance. But I and Brother Meng De hit it off at first sight. If Brother Meng De has a place to need, I can send a message to me, and I will definitely not refuse if I can help.
Cao Cao's face was soothing, and suddenly he smiled indescribablely and said: Do you think this is true?
"It's true!" Lu Bu vaguely realized that something was wrong. He was just saying some polite words. Could Cao Cao have made some tricks?
"Since that's the case, I wonder if my ancestors can give up my love and sell me a thousand good horses. It also allows me and my soldiers to return to my hometown with a decent look, so that everyone in my hometown will not make any contribution to the extermination of the Yellow Turbans! Returning to the countryside in glory, it is enough to get this wish!" Cao Cao asked for the horses in a tactful manner.
If you don’t know Cao Cao’s character, Lu Bu might have been deceived by Cao Cao’s reasons. But if you know Cao Cao would never be simple, Lu Bu understood: Cao Cao, seeking horses is not for the sake of returning home in glory, but for the sake of realizing the importance of cavalry.
With just one polite word, Lu Bu has to admit that Cao Cao is worthy of being Cao Cao.
"Brother Meng De laughed. I came here this time and didn't have many horses. In addition to being exhausted and sick on the way, there were also many horses that died of battle..."
"Brother Fengxian, do you really want to recognize me as your brother or be polite and perfunctory to me? If it is purely perfunctory, I, Cao Mengde, don't like that. General Lu, don't be surprised!" Cao Cao pressed step by step.
