[Three Kingdoms] Burning incense and sacrificial wine

When Cui Song was speechless, suddenly a hand was pressed on the back of his hand, he paused for a moment, and took the wine spoon from his hand.

Cui Song came back to his senses, looked at Guo Jia who was taking over his work and was straining the wine, and thought about the moment when he pressed his hand, maybe it meant to let him relax and not worry?

Guo Jia was busy with the work in hand, never looked up at the two of them, and said in a low voice:

"Please take care of yourself. We allow the two of you to avoid disaster here, but...there is no wine."

After speaking, he pushed the well-filtered wine to Cui Song, and filled another bowl himself.

The ranger stared at Jiulu in front of him with wide eyes, shrugged his nose vigorously, and smelled a sweet smell.

He hurriedly took off the plain face towel, took another big breath, and the rich and mellow smell of wine entered his nostrils, making him look satisfied.

He immediately lowered his voice and said: "How can it be, just watching the two of you drinking, it's too difficult."

When the ranger took off his scarf, Cui Song discovered that he was the brawny man who braved the rainstorm to break into the post house before Jiang Zun and He Wei.Thinking of this man's rude behavior towards Xi Zhicai that day, Cui Song couldn't help frowning.

Guo Jia noticed the change in Cui Song's demeanor, and rejected You Xia's hint without even thinking about it.

"Then you'll be next to each other." As he spoke, he drank less than half of the sake in the glass.

"you--"

"This chivalrous man..." Even out of gratitude, You Yi, who had never questioned the ranger along the way, could not remain silent at this moment. He considered, "We have no choice but to break in here, and it is already disturbing. This wine is originally The property of these two lords... knights like to drink wine, if Yi survives this catastrophe, he will definitely find the world's fine wines and wines to repay the knights' great kindness."

Hearing You Yi's words, You Xia stopped his noisy thoughts, curled his lips and said:

"You don't have to thank me. Your family has suffered such an injustice. Now that I have encountered it, I won't sit idly by. Let's talk about other things after you escape this catastrophe."

You Yi made a big salute, then looked at Cui Song and the two, hesitatingly said:

"Although we have escaped the pursuers for the time being, there are still officers and soldiers searching nearby. What if...wouldn't it implicate the two of you."

The ranger waved his machete: "We'll kill it at that time. I'm not a bastard who wants to find a backup when I'm dying. You can rest assured."

These words are not only for You Yi, but also for Cui and Guo.

Cui Song thought to himself, even if the ranger really has such thoughts, when the pursuers come to search, they will not be involved or not.

However, it is good to have such a heart. If it is not for hypocrisy, these two people are also kind and magnanimous people.

Guo Jia drank a glass of sake and asked, "What did this brother commit?"

You Xia took a look at You Yi, and You Yi didn't mean to hide anything, so he told him what happened:

"...Because a soldier gave me a private letter, I hurriedly left the military mansion, but when I arrived at the house, it was already a step too late. The whole family was killed on the spot, the lintel was broken, and the courtyard was covered in blood."

Cui Song did not expect that Dong Zhuo would not only be violent and headstrong, but also be so unreasonable and cruel to his subordinates.

"Where do you want to go?"

You Yi clenched the saber in his hand, gnashed his teeth and said, "Tie Dong and I are inseparable. We must cut it with our hands and eat it alive."

Cui Song saw that his eyes were red and he was full of hatred. Just as he was about to say something, a glass of warm wine was stuffed into his hand.

Turning his head to look to the side, he saw Guo Jia picked up his wine glass and smiled lazily at him:

"drink wine."

Cui Song understood, respected him, and took a sip.

You Yi played freely for a long time alone, seeing that Cui Song and the other two were indifferent, he said seriously:

"In my opinion, the appearance and demeanor of the two of you are not like ordinary people. If you meet an unidentified person who breaks in with a knife for the first time, you will not show any signs of change. You must have made a great achievement. But now that the government is in decline, Dong Zhuo is holding power and acting tyrannically. The two of you Why don't you come with me, find one or two friends, wait for the opportunity to overthrow Dong Zhuo, and do a good job for you?"

Cui Song paused the hand holding the wine cup, and continued to drink in silence.

"General You is flattering us both." Guo Jia put out the fire, and said to himself, "We are ordinary people, we only know how to drink and make a fuss about nothing, how dare we do such a big thing that loses our heads."

Cui Song: ...

Sorry, there is another salted fish here who doesn't even know how to make a fu.

Guo Jia couldn't hear Cui Song's complaints, and continued, "...It can be said that we have no ambitions. We just pretend that we have never heard of what happened just now, and hope that General You will not mention it again."

You Yi said anxiously: "Why should you two belittle yourself? Dong Zhuo has no love for the people, he only knows how to search for gold and silver treasures, and seek pleasure. If things go on like this, the big man will collapse—"

"General You." Guo Jia interrupted him, although he was smiling, but his words seemed extremely rude, "Just now you were worried that the pursuers would search this place and implicate my two brothers. Now you want me to be with you If you are together, you are not afraid of implicating the two of us?"

Cui Song drank silently.

Guo Jia said exactly what he was worried about.A few breaths ago, this person said that he was afraid of hurting them, and soon he wanted to drag them into the water and rebel against Dong... It's not that this behavior itself is wrong, it's just that they met by chance and lacked mutual understanding. To persuade people to rebel without asking is really...

Cui Song shook his head secretly in his heart, and looked up to see You Yi's reaction.

You Yi blushed slightly, he didn't know whether it was shame or annoyance: "I was reckless."

You Xia has been silent since You Yi told his life experience. Seeing You Yi hit a wall, he looked out along the crack of the door: "The lackeys are going there, let's go."

You Yi bid farewell to Cui Song and the others, and left with You Xia.

After confirming that the two really left, Cui Song closed the door and returned to his original seat:

"Do you think he did it on purpose?"

"Hard to say."

"Maybe he was blinded by hatred, so he made this unreasonable move."

"It's just one of those 'maybes.'"

Guo Jia cleaned up the mess on the case,

"He is a general under Dong Zhuo's command, and he has worked for Dong Zhuo for so long... If it weren't for this incident, do you think he would continue to work for Dong Zhuo? As a general, he understands Dong Zhuo's love for the people better than the courtiers Indifference and abuse. Dong Zhuo’s cruelty is not something that happens in a day or two. If he is really righteous, he should have found another job or resigned. We don’t know his original attitude towards Dong Zhuo, let alone that he has He did not take pleasure in killing and humiliating the people like some of Dong Zhuo's generals."

"I thought you would say that this is a game set up by Dong Zhuo."

Because he didn't want to discuss this topic anymore, Cui Song deliberately teased Guo Jia with an absurd guess, but instead of laughing it off, Guo Jia showed a little mystery.

"Not necessarily, and not necessarily not."

In Wang Yun's mansion, Wang Yun, who was writing a letter in the study, received a report from the porter, and a drop of ink stained the last word he just wrote.

Wang Yun sighed, crumpled the silk into a ball, and went to the hall to meet the visitor.

As soon as they met, Wang Yun recognized that the ranger had visited his house.At that time, the other party wanted to be his guard, but he was concerned that this person's origin was unknown, so he declined.

Now seeing this person again, Wang Yun pretended not to know him, and only talked to You Yi:

"Nowadays the city is full of wind and rain, why did General You come here, why don't you hurry to avoid disaster?"

"Also ask Marquis Wen to save me."

You Yi wanted to kneel down, but was stopped by Wang Yun.

"No way!"

You Yi's eyes were red: "Marquis Wen, Dong Zhuo is going against the grain—"

Wang Yun took a step back: "General You, if I don't report you to the Grand Master, I'm doing my best. You... oh, leave quickly!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around with his hands behind his back, and walked quickly into the hall.

"Marquis Wen...? Wang Situ?!"

You Yi wanted to chase, but was stopped by the guards in Wang Yun's mansion: "General You, please stop."

You Yi had no choice but to leave with You Xia again.

Later, the two ran around in secret again, while avoiding the pursuit of the guards, while secretly contacting the noble courtiers.

You Yi wanted to escape from the city before making plans, but the city wall was too high and the city gate was heavily guarded, making it difficult to fly with wings, so he wandered around the city with the ranger, persuading people to "rebel against Dong".

Most of the people either refused to see him, or after listening to his proposal, they sternly refused and drove him out.Some even wanted to use him to go to Dong Zhuo in exchange for benefits, but the ranger saw through and took him away with his high-strength martial arts, which made him even more grateful.

When You Yi visited all the people he knew and finally persuaded several officials and army commanders, and was about to gear up for a fight, the Ranger, whom he regarded as a great benefactor, attacked from behind and chopped him down.

You Yi, who was lying in a pool of blood, stared at the strong man walking towards him in disbelief, but saw the other party grinning ferociously.

"You are useless, rest in peace."

"???"
