Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 2904 I knew this before, why bother

   Lu Bu and others prostrated themselves on the ground, but Fei Qian didn't look very happy.

   Fei Qian turned his head slightly and looked at Cao Xing.

  Although Cao Xing lay on the ground and didn't raise his head, he seemed to feel Fei Qian's gaze, and his body trembled a little.

  『Lieutenant Cao. 』

   Fei Qian's tone was steady.

  Cao Xing trembled, "Sin... the villain is... here..."

  『Shooting skills are good. 』

   Fei Qian continued to speak steadily, but Cao Xing was so frightened that he kept trembling, as if he had some kind of emergency.

  『Little man... small... small...』

  Cao Xing's forehead was beaded with sweat, and he smashed dots on the yellow sand one by one, but he didn't know what to say.

  I shot the arrow by myself. Should I say that I am really good at archery, or should I deny that I am not that good? Saying that archery is good, doesn't it prove that I really want to shoot Tai Shici, if it is said that archery is not good, then who is it that I want to shoot indiscriminately?

Fei Qian took out a roll of silk book from his sleeve, unfolded it, glanced up and down, and said, "After investigation, Captain Cao was suspected of dereliction of duty in Xihai, and there was no serious crime... Since you took office , if there is any matter, it is either prevarication, or delay, no one does anything about the affairs of the Western Regions and the West Sea.

Cao Xing was trembling, he didn't know whether he should answer or not, he could only slam his head on the ground, unfortunately, in the yellow sand, there is a lot of gravel and dust, and his head was not very loud when he knocked on the ground. See dust puff up.

  Fei Qian closed the scroll, glanced at Tai Shici, and said, "Captain Cao, you said Wei Xu was instigating it, but now Wei Xu fled...then, do you have someone else to prove it?" 』

Cao Xing looked at Lu Bu subconsciously, and then remembered that Lu Bu was fighting Tai Shici at that time, and he could prove it as a fart, and then turned his head to look at the guard behind him, but saw his guard general His head was almost shrunk into his crotch, and he ignored Cao Xing at all.

  『In that case. Fei Qian said slowly, "Are you willing to capture Wei Xu and return?" If you can get it, it will reduce your guilt. 』

  『Little willing! willing! Cao Xing paused hastily, then turned around and jumped up without looking at Lu Bu, kicked three or four of his guards, then bowed to Fei again, then beat his horse and followed Wei Xu on the ground to stay behind leaving traces.

   During the conversation between Fei Qian and Cao Xing, Lu Bu knelt on the ground from the beginning to the end, without saying a word.

   Fei Qian looked at Lu Bu, remained silent for a while, then turned his horse's head, "Brother Feng Xian, get up, go back to the pass first." 』

  …(*￣(エ)￣)…

On the other side, Wei Xu frightened his horse and galloped wildly. The horse ran with all its strength, and the yellow sand flew up. However, after running for a while, the horse's breath became heavier, its body temperature rose, its body was sweating, and there was more white foam in its mouth. , Huffing and puffing gradually slowed down.

  When Wei Xu fled, he relied on instinct. Now he lost his mind for a while, and naturally he didn't urge the horse, so the horse went forward for a while, from running to walking, and then stopping from walking.

  Wei Xu staggered and half fell off his horse.

  In his mind, he was still circling the idea of ​​why this happened, and then he was so confused that even his hands and feet seemed to be numb, limp and weak, and he just fell to the ground, dazed.

   How did all this become like this?

  Dadu Hu...

  Why didn't the chief protector protect me? !

  Wei Xu raised his eyebrows, but soon fell down limply and turned into a horoscope, "It's over, it's over..."

  The Gobi is vast, and the yellow sand is long.

  Wei Xu suddenly felt that under the sky, people and horses were lonely, and his heart began to feel sad, and he couldn't help crying, "What's wrong with me? Why? why? I... I just... I just made a mistake that everyone in the world makes..."

   Mistakes that men all over the world make.

   Mistakes women all over the world make.

  Mistakes that children all over the world will make...

  This type of discourse is nothing more than **** all over the world, just exonerating themselves.

   "The whole world" means that it is not oneself who is wrong, but the whole world, that everyone is a sinner.

  As the so-called law does not blame the public, since it is a mistake that the whole world will make, then what is the point of finding me alone?

  I was wrong, is anyone else right?

  This person did not make a mistake, so did that person also make a mistake?

  Why did you come to me?

  Why did you come to me?

  Take a step back, put aside the facts...

   There are similarities but the same effect.

  However, when he said this excuse of the whole world, this person forgot that he was a public figure, or he did not forget, but deliberately confused the relationship between public figures and ordinary people.

  Rights and obligations are equal in themselves. It is difficult to have both the fame and fortune of public figures, but also a small private space, and the open-mindedness and understanding of others...

  Why don't you go to heaven?

  Daydreams exist in the sky.

   To a certain extent, this is also a kind of "private use of public power".

  As a native of the Han Dynasty, Wei Xu had a hard time understanding such a concept, so he felt that he had nothing wrong with him. Even if he made a mistake, it was a mistake made by all people in the world. How could he just find it on his head?

   This is not a big injustice, a big injustice, what is it?

   Even in later generations, in fact, many people do not understand, or deliberately do not know. For example, in capitalist countries, there are officials who wear expensive luxury goods, go in and out and take luxury cars, and say that this is all their legal income. It is a gift from the company of their loved ones and relatives, but they don’t understand that in capitalism In the country, there are also certain laws and regulations for gifting property. It doesn’t mean that if you want to give a luxury house, you can give it a luxury house, if you want to give it a luxury car, you can give it a luxury car, if you want to give it a luxury watch, you can give it a luxury watch…

   Did Wei Xu really not know what he did was wrong?

Certainly not.

  The so-called knowing the law and breaking the law is nothing like it.

But Wei Xu was unwilling to admit his mistake. Even when Lu Bu knelt down and pleaded guilty with others, he still believed that it was not his fault, or that he should not come to him before executing other wrongdoers in the whole world. he.

   Therefore, Wei Xu ran away.

   Subconsciously, he ran away. After running for a while, he realized that he had nowhere to go.

  Xihai City?

   There is indeed a lot of money in Xihai City, which he saved with great difficulty, but now he is alone, so what if he goes to Xihai City? Maybe Zhang Liao was waiting for him, and then there was a click...

  Wei Xu trembled suddenly, and couldn't help but leak a little urine.

what to do?

  While Wei Xu was holding his head and worrying, he suddenly heard the sound of some horseshoes. He quickly got up and looked around, only to see some faint people seem to be coming here!

  Wei Xu yelled for a while, then scrambled and rushed towards his mount, wanting to get on the horse and escape immediately. But his war horse had just been panting for a long time, and was exhausted from running to death. He thought that after Wei Xu came down, he would loosen his belly, feed him a couple of sips of water and eat some fried sugar beans, but after waiting for a long time, he only saw Wei Xu muttered alone and didn't know what to do, so he had no choice but to go aside and find something to eat and drink by himself, so he walked a little farther without knowing it.

  Now in a hurry, Wei Xu stepped on something with his hook, and slapped on the ground with a groan. He didn't know where his face was scratched, and suddenly it was loess and red blood.

Wei Xu didn't feel the pain, or he didn't care about the pain when he was in a nervous mood. After pedaling a few times, he staggered and rushed to the side of the horse, grabbed the rein and was about to get on the horse, but heard The people coming from behind shouted, "General Wei! General Wei! It's okay, it's okay..."

"ah? ha? ! 』Wei Xu was taken aback.

If he shouted "don't go" or "don't run away", Wei Xu flatly patted his horse and left immediately, but what he shouted was "it's okay", which made Wei Xu's heart jump suddenly, and then he grabbed the rein and stepped on Stirrup, while turning to look at...

  噫?

   Looks like Cao Xing?

  Cao Xing's pocket is specially made by himself, with some special decorations on it, just facing the sunset, shining in the sun, easy to identify.

  Wei Xu pondered for a while, turned on the horse, and then grabbed the rein with one hand and the handle of the knife with the other, with a serious expression, pulled the decree lines, raised his eyebrows and shouted, "What are you doing here?" 』

  Wei Xu made up his mind that if something went wrong, he would flee immediately.

  Cao Xing waved his hands and shouted, "It's okay! never mind! It's all over! 』

  Wei Xu really heard it clearly this time, his heart couldn't help jumping up, and there was some surprise on his face, "What's all right? You mean me, no no, we're all fine? 』

  Unhappy, Wei Xu didn't even spare a little brain power to consider whether Cao Xing's "nothing" is possible...

It's like a drowning person, even if he catches a straw, he will subconsciously hold it tightly in his hands, without even thinking about whether the straw can help him, whether he should look for other things , rather than clinging to straws.

  Cao Xing secretly signaled to let his guards surround him, and opened his eyes and shouted: "It's all right now!" Hussars forgive everyone! Daduhu and everyone else! 』

"real? ! ”Wei Xu immediately beamed with joy, looked up to the sky and laughed a few times, suddenly felt reborn, but the next moment he saw several Cao Xing guards coming up from both sides, “You! What are you doing? ! 』

   Wei Xu felt that something was wrong, and immediately urged his horse to flee, and his actions also aroused the reaction of Cao Xing's guards.

"catch him! 』

  『Don’t let him get away! 』

  Cao Xing's guards shouted one after another, immediately making Wei Xu understand that what Cao Xing said before was all lies...

  『Zizi! Wei Xu turned his horse's head and ran away in a panic, and shouted angrily, "Your maidservant! How dare you bully someone! 』

  Cao Xing took a mouthful of wind and sand, and the flesh on his face, which was usually smiling, turned upside down, "Grab him!" 』

  Fuck you bitch!

  You are allowed to lie to me, but I am not allowed to lie to you? !

  Cao Xing asked the guards to jump up, while drawing out the bow and arrow, and aimed at Wei Xu.

  Wei Xu saw Cao Xing's actions, and immediately screamed that it was not good, and didn't care to continue scolding Cao Xing. He tried to shake the horse from side to side, trying to make it difficult for Cao Xing to aim...

"grass! 』

   Seeing that it was difficult to aim at Wei Xu's body, Cao Xing was furious, and immediately lowered his bow and arrow by a point. Since it was difficult to hit people, he shot a horse!

  The arrow roared out, and immediately pierced Wei Xu's horse's **** with a puff!

  Wei Xu's war horse let out a scream, and immediately burst out with all its potential. It suddenly increased its speed, deviated from the road, rushed out of the encirclement of Cao Xing and others, and fled into the Gobi Desert!

  Damn it!

  Cao Xing yelled at the guard who was staring blankly at him, "Look at you shit! catch up! If we can't hold him, we will all die! All must die! Follow the blood on the ground! catch up! His horse is injured, and he can't run for long! 』

Cao Xing's guards suddenly came to their senses, shouting one after another, and chased along the bloodstains. They didn't dare to run too fast, because their horses were also very tired. If they run with Wei Xu's horses at full strength now, Even if they can catch up, the horses are useless, and they might all die in the Gobi Desert...

   Night gradually fell.

  The Gobi Desert, which seemed to be looking at everything in the world indifferently, gradually showed its fangs in the night.

  The howling of the wolves made Wei Xu somewhat sober up from his dazed mind.

   In a panic, the horses galloped wildly, so that even Wei Xu didn't know where he ran to now, but only knew that he was in the Gobi now. He thought that although he was a little more sober now, he dared not let him drive in the dark night without any signs, because it was not a question of courage, but courting death.

   But the problem is that Wei Xu didn't want to court death, but death began to seek him.

  After nightfall, the wolves smelled the smell of blood, and followed the imprint...

  Wei Xu felt that something was wrong, and was about to ride a horse and run again, but the war horse had more sensitive ears and higher vigilance than him. When he saw a pack of wolves coming, he instinctively ran away!

   On the one hand, there is no place in the Gobi Desert to tie up a war horse, on the other hand...

If Wei Xu took more care of the war horses on weekdays, and personally helped the war horses to groom, feed, etc., it is impossible to say that the emotional connection between the war horses and Wei Xu would be closer, and Wei Xu might not be abandoned in danger, but the problem is that Wei Xu When I was in Xihai City in the Western Regions, all I wanted was to fight for power and gain power, so why would I have the time to take care of the horses?

  For war horses, Wei Xu is not the master, let alone a partner, but a guy who desperately wants to ride on his back.

  So the war horse left Wei Xu without hesitation and ran away!

  Wei Xu was directly left where he was!

  Among the wolves, only a small part went after the horses, while most of them surrounded them.

  After all, the wolf’s intuition, the one with two legs looks fatter, more tender, oilier and easier to bully...

   Wei Xu drew his sword in his hand, roared tremblingly, and then waved the sword to embolden himself.

  The wolves were not afraid at all, and surrounded them slowly, baring their teeth, their green eyeballs flickering in the night.

  The wolf on the left pounced forward, Wei Xu shook and turned to the left.

  The wolf on the right took the opportunity to take another two steps forward, and Wei Xu quickly turned to the right again.

  The wolf behind found the opportunity, and jumped directly onto Wei Xu's back, and bit down with a whimper!

  The wolf teeth bit on the iron plate of the pocket and the neck guard, rattling, but failed to bite through.

  Wei Xu was frightened, and because of the weight of the wolf, he couldn't stand upright. He was about to fight back and kill the wolf behind him, but he saw the wolves on the left and right rushing forward in no particular order!

  Wei Xu slashed with a knife!

  A wolf was cut down, making a whining sound, and fell aside, but more wolves rushed up, biting hands, feet, waists, eggs...

  Wei Xu managed to hold out for only one round before being thrown to the ground by the wolves.

  Although he was wearing armor, he was not fully covered after all. Soon the wild wolves found a place to bite. With the sound of groaning, Wei Xu screamed a few times, and then stopped.

   In the distance, Cao Xing and the others had more people, and they found a more suitable shelter from the wind on the Gobi Desert. They collected some wood and withered grass. Naturally, it would be better than Wei Xu alone.

  The position of the bonfire is at the angle formed by two natural stone walls, together with people and horses to block it, and a blanket to cover it, so that the wind will not blow in directly, and it will not be exposed to the outside.

  The night wind gradually picked up, scraping the stones and passing by, and the entrained fine sand seemed to be rubbing against the stones, making a tooth-piercing sound.

  Suddenly, Cao Xing half straightened up, "Did you hear anything? 』

  The wind howled, mixed with howling wolves.

  『That's the sound of a wolf...』 said a guard.

  Cao Xing listened for a while, "Someone seems to be calling...could it be..."

  When everyone reacted, their faces changed.

   A moment later, a guard sighed, "General, that... can't help it. Going outside now is courting death..."

  『That’s right, let’s talk about it after dawn! ’ another guard said.

  The rest of the guards nodded one after another, strongly recommending that they act at dawn.

  Cao Xing pricked up his ears and listened intently, the wind became quiet again, except for those howling friction sounds, it seemed that even the howling of wolves was gone...

  『Never mind. ’Cao Xing leaned against the stone wall helplessly, ‘Let’s talk at dawn. 』

Its daybreak.

  Cao Xing was not in the mood to eat any preserved food, he just drank a few sips of water from the water bag he was carrying, tidied up a bit, and then led the people towards the direction of the voice he heard last night.

   Several people dispersed and searched slowly.

  The sun rises lazily, giving the deserted Gobi a little bit of temperature in autumn.

   After walking for a while, a guard whistled and pointed out the scene of the incident.

   A mess, broken armor.

  『This…』 Cao Xing jumped off the horse and identified the armor fragments.

  『Here is a knife! 』A guard found another item.

   Wolves don't eat iron, and don't see any value in these artifacts.

  『General…』The guard said somewhat speculatively from the side, 「It seems to be…」

  There was no complete piece of flesh and blood left at the scene, only fragmentary bones remained.

  The **** bones attracted many ants, who were excitedly climbing and carrying them among the gravel.

  I believe that if it takes another two days, these scattered bones will become clean and white as jade.

  Cao Xing stood there, silent for a while, and finally said hoarsely after a long time: "Clean up if you can, make a bag... just bury the bones on the spot, take the armor and sword back..."
