I, Dong Zhuo, love the people like a son

On the contrary, Shi A had come back at this time, and after instructing the groom to go on, he told Dong Zhuo: "Dong Jun, Master is not good at words, he is cold outside and hot inside..."

Before I finished speaking, I laughed first: "A person like Dong Jun is meticulous, so there is no need to talk too much... As long as you are not a member of the government, you will definitely have a good conversation with Master."

"Don't worry, we are definitely not from the government." Old Dong nodded with sincerity on his face: We are from the imperial court, and the government is nothing!

When he finally saw Wang Yue, Old Dong sat down carelessly, and introduced himself: "Old man Dong Zhuo, he is the Taiwei of the current court, and he came here today to recruit Aner and others!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his sleeve robe and looked at Wang Yue and the rangers practicing swords and knives in the courtyard: "Who among you is against it, and who is in favor of it?"

Li Ru: "..."

Zhang Xiu: "..."

Shi A: "..."

Wang Yue: "..."

Chapter 44 It's too bad...

Wang Yue was nearly forty years old, and his face was so ordinary that he was not conspicuous in the crowd at first, but a sword mark on his face destroyed this mediocrity, adding a trace of chill to him.

Moreover, his lips are also very thin, as if they are always pursed tightly - it is easy to see from this face that he is a swordsman who is not good at words.

Therefore, after listening to Dong Zhuo's self-introduction, his first reaction was not to question, but to quickly put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and said indifferently: "One breath, a certain one can take your life!"

"Dong Jun, don't be joking..." Shi A reacted first, standing between Wang Yue and Dong Zhuo: "Aren't you a wealthy businessman from Lintao?"

"You knight-errants are always well-informed. Don't you know where the current Taiwei is from?"

Dong Zhuo was still on the verge of death and frantically tested: "My surname is Dong, from Lintao, and I am indeed a wealthy businessman. It's just that the business I do is the same as that of Lu Buwei, and I trade with the world."

Looking at Wang Yue's hand again, he said: "Master Wang, I advise you not to be impulsive, impulsiveness is the devil." He picked up the pottery bowl on the case table, and deliberately threw it on the ground cheaply.

Broken.

Then, he also explained: "See, this is called throwing a cup."

When the voice fell, not only Wang Yue, but even Shi A became nervous.Rangers outside the courtyard also poured into the hall one after another, surrounding Dong Zhuo and others.

Zhang Xiu could no longer hide his identity at this time, and drew his sword in a defensive posture, with a nervous expression.Li Ru didn't expect this to happen, but he gritted his teeth and stood in front of Dong Zhuo.

Faced with these murderous rangers, and the fact that the pottery bowl was broken and there was no movement outside, Lao Dong actually panicked: the plot is wrong, that's not how it was shown on TV...

If he was the only one, he would have given up now, but in front of Li Ru and Zhang Xiu, he could only pretend to be calm and in control of the overall situation, and said indifferently: "Master Wang, you must think clearly." , even if you can kill the old man, can't you kill a hundred thousand Xiliang iron cavalry?"

"Once the news of the old man's death spreads, the more than [-] Xiliang iron cavalry will be leaderless, and it will be difficult to restrain them. It is hard for the old man to predict what will happen to avenge the old man..."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shi A superficially, and said, "Brother Shi, please go get another ceramic bowl and pour some hot water for this old man... Drink more hot water, it's good for your health."

Shi A's whole body was about to crack, and he looked at Old Dong in a daze: It's this time, are you still thinking about drinking more hot water? ...I'll just boil the pot of water and scald your brain, okay?

Wang Yue's hand holding the sword tightened, and his expression was full of anger, but finally got up and said coldly: "Shi A, see off the guests!"

Just as he turned to leave, the pottery bowl on the table began to vibrate slightly, and the rumble of vibrations came from his ears, which became clearer and clearer.In the end, the house made of thatched mud tiles began to collect dust...

Wang Yue's indifferent expression became more serious, and the other rangers also thought of something, and their expressions began to feel uneasy.On the contrary, Zhang Xiu and Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo in astonishment, and their minds gradually settled down.

The next moment, the gate was suddenly rushed open by iron cavalry, and Zhang Liao rushed in first!

After pulling away the ranger standing in front of him with a few whips, his expression was ruthless and urgent, and he shouted majesticly: "Where is the Taiwei!... If there is even the slightest mistake, I will raze this place!"

Immediately, soldiers holding bows and crossbows appeared around the courtyard wall, and densely packed cold arrows were aimed at the rangers in the courtyard.

The small courtyard was instantly filled with heavily armed soldiers holding large shields. They formed a shield wall to drive the unresponsive rangers to the side and cleared a passage that could pass through.

Dong Min, who was wearing a helmet and armor, got off his horse in a hurry and ran all the way into the hall from the aisle. Seeing Dong Zhuo sitting inside safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brother, are you alright?"

"This place is remote and difficult to navigate, with twists and turns, and the marks you left along the way are not obvious. I took Wen Yuan to chase after me, for fear that I would be a step late."

Zhang Liao also got off his horse, clasped his fists and said, "The last general is late for rescue, please forgive me, Taiwei!"

Looking at Dong Min and Zhang Liao, the old Dong finally calmed down, waved his hands and said, "It's not too late, it's not too late... Well, you two will be responsible for inviting the innocent people out, I have something to talk to Master Wang, don't be too nervous .”

After finishing speaking, he didn't forget to add: "Be polite, from now on it will be a pot, uh... Pao Ze, who eats in a pot, don't hurt your kindness. Well, Brother Shi, is the hot water ready?"

The situation was reversed in an instant, and the offensive and defensive positions were changed.

Some of the rangers in the hall wanted to resist, but when they saw Wang Yue nodding with a livid face, they could only walk out obediently.

Soon, only Wang Yue and Dong Zhuo were left in the lobby that was about to be overwhelmed.After Shi A obediently brought a bowl of hot water, Zhang Xiu invited him out with a look.

Wang Yue still didn't remove his hand from the hilt, but looked at Dong Zhuo, who was calm and calm, drinking hot water, and said: "Within six steps, a certain person can still easily take off your head."

Old Dong was just like Lafite in 82. After putting down the pottery bowl in his hand, he said slowly: "The world is not only about fighting and killing, it is more about people's sophistication. I came up to show my identity and recruit you. This is a favor; if you kill this old man If so, it was an accident."

"What's more, you don't know how to kill the old man at all, so don't hold on to the hilt of your sword and put on airs."

"How do you know I won't do it?"

"If you knew how to do it, when the old man performed smashing just now, his disciples would have rushed up and chopped me into a pulp." Dong Zhuo shook his head, and seemed to sigh regretfully: "Unfortunately, you are not an ordinary ranger, but A thoughtful, knowledgeable, and ambitious ranger leader."

"You are well aware of the consequences of killing this old man, which violates the original intention and vision of being a chivalrous man." Then, he spread his hands and looked at Wang Yue and said, "So, you will not, or dare not kill this old man."

"Then I won't give up my freedom just because you came here, and become the court's hawks and dogs, helping the tyrants to abuse and harm the people!"

"No, no, no..." Old Dong repeatedly waved his hands and looked at Wang Yue with disappointed eyes: "It seems that you haven't figured out the current situation yet."

After thinking about it, he said, "Well, let me give you a demonstration...Xiu'er!"

Zhang Xiu immediately entered the hall and said, "This subordinate is here!"

"Take a team of Xiliang cavalry, go to the residence of the beautiful young woman we stayed just now, and invite her over."

"Yun'er!..." Wang Yue became emotional instantly when he heard the words, the sword in his hand stretched out his sleeve like a dancing girl, and in a blink of an eye it was already placed on Dong Zhuo's neck: "If you dare to hurt her at all..."

"Go now!" Dong Zhuo slammed heavily, looked at Wang Yue disdainfully, and ordered Zhang Xiu: "If he dares to hurt a single beard of the old man, you know how to deal with that Yun'er and the ranger in the courtyard!"

"Here!" Zhang Xiu gritted his teeth, turned around and left.

Wang Yue's sword began to tremble, and his mind turned back and forth, but he still didn't dare to make a move.

His house was not far from the Venerable Master's residence, before it was time for a cup of tea, Zhang Xiu had already led a pair of Xiliang cavalry, and brought Zhou Yun and an old servant and maidservant over.

Sudden encounter with this accident, along the way, seeing the Xiliang iron cavalry regiment surrounded Wang Yue's disciples, and the whole courtyard was lined with guards, bows and crossbows poised for power, Zhou Yun inevitably panicked.

After entering the hall, he saw Wang Yue pressing his sword against Dong Zhuo's neck. He seemed to understand something, and tried to calm down, "Wang Lang, who is this?"

"The current emperor, Dong Zhuo."

"Are you going to kill him?"

"No, he doesn't dare..." Dong Zhuo spoke first, slightly pushed the iron sword in front of his neck away with his fingers, and said disdainfully, "He's just a stupid donkey who can't get out of his own world. Eggs, plus brainless, blind cripples."

"Shut up!" I didn't expect Zhou Yun, a weak woman, to say suddenly: "Wang Lang is so arrogant, he hoes the strong and helps the weak. In order to help the poor, you even dared to break into the dragon's pond and the tiger's lair. As the current captain, you did it again." What is it, what qualifications do you have to speak nonsense here!"

"Hey...you haven't gotten married yet, so you feel sorry for your lover?"

Dong Zhuo smiled without being angry when he heard the words, walked up to Zhou Yun and looked at her deadly, and suddenly said with a smile: "What a fierce woman, the old man likes it, so I will take you as my concubine today, how about it?"

"Daydreaming!" Zhou Yun spat heavily, unafraid.

"I'm not daydreaming, and I know you're not afraid of death." Old Dong shook his head, and said, "But if you don't agree, I'll order the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to raid Zhou Gongcao's house and kill everyone. How about staying?"

"You!..." Zhou Yun's eyes burst into flames instantly, and his chest heaved violently and stared at Dong Zhuo.

She vowed not to marry anyone other than Wang Yue, but she only moved out of the Zhou family to live alone instead of completely severing ties with the Zhou family.It can be seen that there is still a deep nostalgia for his family. Dong Zhuo's threat can be described as... hitting the nail on the head.

Of course, it can also be the same as what Zhang Xiu and Zhang Liao said.

"Despicable!" Zhang Liao took the lead and spat at the door in a low voice.

"Shameless!" Zhang Xiu followed closely behind, feeling that following such a lord would defile her own soul.

"What are you two doing, isn't it the other way around!" Dong Min was unhappy, and gave the two of them a hard look.

But at this time, Dong Zhuo's arrogant laughter came from the room again: "You stare, you hate me very much... Oh, Wang Yue, you tightened your sword handle again, come on, stab this old man in the chest. "

"Yun'er, the more angry you are, the more you like this old man, keep coming; Master Wang, are you a man who dare not swing a sword when you see your own woman being so humiliated?"

"This old man likes to look at you like this. You obviously don't like me, and you can't kill me..."

Dong Min couldn't help turning his head at this time, spit and muttered in a low voice: "Brother, you are really not a thing..."

Chapter 45 Defeating Magic with Magic

"Dong thief, men's matters are resolved by men, so what's the point of involving Yun'er!" Wang Yue, who was forced to the edge of the cliff, was not good at words and had to talk more.

Moreover, the emotion was obviously very impulsive, and the sword scar on his face turned red accordingly.

It's almost time to see the fire, and if the trouble continues, it may really destroy the limit of Wang Yue's rationality.Old Dong immediately changed his strategy, sat back to his original position without any haste, and said, "This old man just demonstrated and explained a fact to you."

"What fact?" Wang Yue asked.

"You don't dare to kill this old man, but this old man can kill you without any scruples. Moreover, he will kill anyone related to you to prevent future troubles!"

"you!……"

"What am I?... Throughout the history, which princes and generals are not so cruel and cruel? Especially if you are a group of martial arts and uncontrollable social instability factors, if you can't be used by the old man, why don't you let it go?" You will become bigger and stronger and create brilliance!"

"If it weren't for the court's immorality, mediocrity and weakness, allowing the rich and powerful to plunder and abuse the people, how would we see injustice and uphold justice?"

"So, this is the reason for your willingness to degenerate?" Old Dong continued to look at Wang Yue with contempt, and said, "Because the imperial court is immoral, dull and weak, and the rich and powerful abuse the people, you use lynching instead of public law in a petty way." Do you think you can cut through the chaotic and dark world with the sword in your hand?"

"Hmph, that's better than a thief like you who only knows how to fight for power and profit!" Seeing that her sweetheart was speechless, Zhou Yun opened her mouth to throw out her argument again.

Anyway, her man is good and great, and she will never allow others to slander her.

Seeing this scene, Lao Dong said that it was a lie not to be envious: what is this called? ...This is called love!Although it is blind, but there is no paranoia that overwhelms reason, what is it called love?

"The old man only knows how to fight for power and profit?" Even if he was envious, he would not be used to other women's women, and said: "This old man has spent decades of blood on the battlefield, went through fire and water to fight against foreign races outside the Great Wall, and protected you and others. In your eyes, is fighting for power and profit?"

"The old man was trapped in the enemy's situation, with no help from inside and outside, and he dug a grave for himself in despair. Is that also called fighting for power?"

"The old man won a great reputation for his military exploits by narrowly escaped death, but he was only defeated in a battle with the Yellow Turban bandits. He was about to regroup the army and fight again, and exchanged his life for peace in the country. In the end, he was deprived of his official title and military power by an edict. It’s also called fighting for power!”

As he spoke, he turned around abruptly, and angrily reprimanded Zhou Yun: "The old man finally understands that the death of the big man is rooted in the root cause, and he wants to bring peace to the people and revolutionize the government from top to bottom."

"Even clearing up the evils of eunuchs in the Han Dynasty for decades, reforming the business system to benefit the common people, and gathering good and bad knights who often violated the law and chaos in order to stabilize the foundation, in your eyes, it becomes a struggle for power?!"

The amount of grief and indignation after a lot of anger and anger revealed that Dong Zhuo had a rough life for most of his life, and there were more unknown grievances and depressions.The two outside the door looked at each other, feeling ashamed after knowing that they had misunderstood Old Dong.

Dong Min couldn't help feeling emotional.

When old Dong's life was ups and downs, he saw with his own eyes how his elder brother could not sleep with worry and anger. He couldn't help the corners of his eyes getting wet, and said to himself: "That's right, elder brother has fought all his life, so why can't he enjoy it?" enjoy?"

"Teacher, Taiwei..." Zhou Yun was also annoyed by this, and saluted with embarrassment: "The little girl is short-sighted and doesn't know right from wrong. She misunderstood the Taiwei abruptly, and she is ashamed."

Wang Yue on the side was also moved, and he couldn't help but hang down the iron sword in his hand: "It turns out that the Taiwei has such painstaking efforts..."

Old Dong then helped Zhou Yun up, his tone softened a lot, he walked towards Wang Yue and patted his shoulder and said, "Master Wang, I know your aspirations and ambitions, but you are on the wrong path after all."

"The sword in your hand can only kill people, but it can't cut through the chaotic world, even the world. Otherwise, you and Miss Zhou wouldn't be married yet."

"Besides, this road is also extremely difficult. Before entering the hall, the old man carefully looked at it. The disciples in the courtyard are all dressed in cold clothes like Shi A, and a meal of meat in a restaurant will be regarded as a delicacy by them, and they will be humble to each other. They are called swordsmen. I can't even afford the sheath, so I can only walk by the hilt of the sword, for fear of cutting my thigh..."

These two points are undoubtedly the weaknesses and pain points that Wang Yue cares most about.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but feel more depressed, sighed and fell into self-doubt: "I have worked hard for half my life, is it really wrong?"

Zhou Yun, who felt sorry for her lover, stepped forward and took his arm tenderly, and looked at Dong Zhuo to ask for persuasion: she was smart enough to see that old Dong wanted to win over his lover, and gentle persuasion at this time would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

But she was throwing dog food like this, how could Old Dong fulfill her wish, immediately nodded and said: "Master Wang, of course you are wrong!"

Wang Yue and Zhou Yun were both taken aback for a moment, especially Zhou Yun was even more stunned.

Old Dong continued to fool around, saying: "Just relying on your reputation alone to gather some rangers who are kind in nature, calm and objective in situations, it is true that justice can be done in a small area. But what are more so-called rangers?"

"The strong are angry, and draw their knives at the stronger; the weak are angry, but draw their knives at the weaker. Some rogues, oppress the good and the weak, but they also claim to be one of you, and do evil in the name of 'Xia'... Master Wang, please don’t tell this old man, this kind of thing doesn’t exist, right?”

"This..." Sure enough, Wang Yue's expression became even more depressed: the disciples are chivalrous and righteous, and the ones who have taught them the most are these rascals, how could he not know?

Wants to shake the world with a sword, but can only be noble and self-defense.And the result of self-preservation is that the disciples are precarious, generating electricity for love, and spend half their lives doing nothing, even the true love of the beloved woman can only be let down.

Thinking of this, he was completely confused, and asked Dong Zhuo unconsciously: "As the Taiwei said, what should I do?"

"Of course, like the old man, using magic to defeat magic."

Successfully entered the part of being good at, old Dong couldn't help laughing, and tempted like a devil: "The world doesn't allow you, then you stand above the world and see if the father-in-law will marry his daughter to you."

"Didn't the rascals tarnish the name of the ranger? You let your disciples teach them a lesson, throw them into prison to make them reflect on themselves, and raise the entry threshold for the ranger."

"Didn't the rich and powerful abuse the people? Then you collect evidence, spy on the lawbreakers, and investigate and deal with them together. If the officials and officials protect each other better, you will follow the vine and even the senior officials who cover up."

"You are walking in the dark, but you are like a sharp sword hanging on the heads of those monsters and ghosts, and you will fall down at any time."
