Yanzhou, Xicheng.

Near the castle tower, there were many men in prison uniforms carrying stones and mud bricks, and they were carrying them to the castle tower on foot.

Along the way, there were many soldiers standing guard and guarding, but if anyone was lazy, he would be whipped and taught him to remember a long time. In an era when human life is not valuable, even if you kill someone, it is not a big problem, not to mention that these people are still prisoners who have committed crimes.

"Give Lao Tzu a little bit of profit, if anyone dares to be lazy, Lao Tzu will skin him!" The overseer in charge of this place had a fierce face, and pulled the leather whip in his hand, making a crisp crackling sound.

After a while, a soldier hurriedly came and said that the general was coming to them.

When the overseer heard this, he immediately put away his whip and hurried to meet him.

When he saw Lu Bu, the sunlight was shining obliquely on Lu Bu, reflecting his tall figure on the ground, and the black shadow completely enveloped Niu Hu, and the huge sense of oppression made him almost out of breath.

"General, why are you here?" Niu Hu put on a flattering smile and nodded.

"I'm looking for two of you."

"It's Ren Jun and Zaoyi."

Hearing this, Lu Bu showed a trace of surprise on his face: "How do you know?" ”

Don't look at Niu Hu's rude appearance, he is actually quite clever, and replied respectfully: "Chen Junshi said hello before and asked the humble position to take care of these two people, but now that the general is here, he said that he wants two people, so the humble position guessed." ”

"You're a little smart."

Lu Bu laughed and praised him.

Subsequently, under the guidance of Niu Hu, Lu Bu stepped on the stone ladder and climbed the city tower.

On the castle tower, the prisoners were busy repairing the city walls with stone and mud bricks, but there were two figures facing away from each other, doing nothing.

You don't have to think about it to know that these two people must be Ren Jun and Zao Yi that Lu Bu is looking for.

Because Chen Gong had greeted him before, Niu Hu also took special care of these two people, as long as he didn't get into trouble with him, he would let these two go.

Coming to Ren Jun and Zao Yi, Lu Bu looked at the two of them first.

Both of them are in their early thirties, and although they are wearing prison uniforms, they have a unique temperament.

"Boo has seen the two."

Since he was here to recruit talents, Lu Bu first saluted the two.

The two glanced back at Lu Bu, and quickly turned around again, as if they were too lazy to take care of it.

"The general is talking to you!" Seeing this, Niu Hu scolded angrily, and directly raised his leather whip, and made a gesture to teach these two people a lesson.

Lu Bu waved his hand to stop Niu Hu, Ren Jun and Zao only ignored themselves, Lu Bu was not angry, and said to himself: "Don't hide it, Lu is ready to implement Tuntian in Yanzhou, but there is no talent in this area." I learned from Gongtai that the two were experts in Tuntian, and they were also Tuntian officials under Cao Mengde's account, so Lu Bu came and wanted to ask the two of them to help me. ”

Lu Bu spoke sincerely, openly and honestly expressing his intentions.

Clinker, after the two of them listened, not only were they unmoved, but sneered and ridiculed: "Since you know that the two of us are working for Cao Gong, why should you talk in vain." Although I am not a big hero and a husband, I will never rebel against the Lord and seek glory, and I will bend my knees to you! ”

"There's really no room at all?" Lu Bu asked.

The two glanced at each other, without any idea of changing their minds at all, and even had a kind of heroic determination to righteousness, and scolded angrily: "Lu Bu, you coerced the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials, and turned the court into a family, called General Sima, but you are really a thief!" How can we help the abuse, even if I jump from this city today, I will not change my mind! ”

"Oh? Is it? ”

In the face of Ren Jun and Zaoyi's scolding, Lu Bu did not laugh angrily, stepped forward, grabbed the chest of the two, grabbed one in one hand, and lifted the two of them up like chickens.

With their feet off the ground, the two of them subconsciously kicked up their legs and struggled, fluttering in the air.

"Since you can't use it for me, then I can't keep you!"

Lu Bu's eyes were cold, he said indifferently, carried the two of them to the edge of the city wall, and slowly stretched out his hand.

With just a light palm, the two of them will fall from the castle tower and die.

The two of them did not dare to move again.

"Ask you again, would you like to surrender to me?" Lu Bu asked in a calm voice with a threatening tone.

"No, no, no......"

Ren Jun's expression was panicked, his face was pale, and his teeth were chattering, which showed the fear in his heart.

Zao only didn't squeak, clenched his teeth tightly, and refused to open his mouth even if his legs were trembling.

"Don't speak, right? I count to three, and when I have counted them, I let go, whether I am dead or alive, it is all in your own hands. ”

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he began to count down.

Three!

Two!

At the moment of life and death, although the two felt the aura of death permeating the air, they still did not speak.

One!

The voice landed, Ren Jun and Zao You subconsciously closed their eyes, and said their final goodbye to the world in their minds.

Bang! Bang!

Two muffled sounds.

After a while, as if they had experienced an extremely long period of time, the two slowly opened their eyes.

God, it's still so blue.

After a sharp gasp, the two gradually calmed down from their horror.

"Why don't you kill us?" Zao only can't figure it out.

"You think I wouldn't dare?"

Lu Bu asked rhetorically, and then stood with his hands in his hands, and his tone was excited: "I don't want to, because you are capable people, and you are dead, I feel sorry for the Son of Heaven, for the people, and for yourself!" I, Lu Bu, asked myself that there is no match in the world in bravery, but I am indeed inferior to you in the fields and farming. If you can't bear to see the people of Yanzhou displaced and starving, then I didn't say it. ”

"Whether it's a thief or a general, everything I've done Lu Bu is for the people and for this great Han country, I have a clear conscience!"

"From now on, you, Ren Jun, are the general of the pawn farmers under my account! You, Zao, are engaged in farming! ”

"You don't have to reply to me, if you don't want to, when I'm gone, you will jump down from this tower, and you'll be gone."

After saying a radical and powerful word, Lu Bu turned around and left the city tower directly, leaving the stunned two people in place.

After Lu Bu left, the two of them came to the edge of the city wall, looking at the two big stones that had just fallen to the ground, and their hearts were not at ease.

After going down the city tower, Lu Bu was about to return home. At the location of Niu Hu's patrol, a little boy with a tiger head and a tiger brain looked at Lu Bu and immediately exclaimed: "Wow, you are a general!" ”

His face was flushed and he was extremely excited.

"Bunny, don't be rude!"

Niu Hu, who was following behind Lu Bu, changed his face and roared angrily, lest his son collide with Lu Bu.

Lu Bu didn't care about this, and asked Niu Hu with a smile: "This is your son?" ”

Seeing that Lu Bu was not to blame, Niu Hu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a smile: "Let the general laugh, this is the fourth child of my family." ”

"What's your name, little one?"

"My name is Niu Jin."
