After Cao Cao massacred Xuzhou City, his revenge was avenged, but his reputation was also ruined.
Many people were reluctant to come to Yanzhou where Cao Cao was located for fear of being suddenly killed.
This night.
Cao Cao summoned four people alone.
A man was wearing a long black coat, carrying an ancient sword on his back, and wearing a mask. Even on a hot night, he was still very cold.
The other three are two boys and one girl, one tall and one fat.
"I will give you the post of Commander-in-Chief of Qiu. You will fight in the tomb and bring back gold and silver!"
"You three are to touch the golden captain, follow the instructions of General Zhonglang, and assist General Zhonglang in lowering his tomb!"
Cao Cao pointed at the four people and said.
"Yes!" General Faqiu Zhonglang nodded.
Hu Bayi and the three of them also handed over the tokens.
After the three of them came to this world, they wandered around looking for Zhou Sheng.
I had several opportunities but passed by.
The three of them had nowhere to go, so they happened to encounter Cao Cao issuing a request for talents, so the three of them thought of trying their luck and came.
Then, he was taken over by Cao Cao.
The three of them never expected that the tombkeeper was actually there.
Moreover, he seemed to have lost his memory and didn't even recognize the three of them.
After the three of them went back, they discussed things in the room.
"Brother Hu, do we think we have taken away the master's job?" Fatty Wang couldn't help but ask.
The three of them have now become Cao Cao's Mojin Captains, integrating the masters of overthrowing and laying the tomb for Cao Cao.
This was originally the business of their ancestors, but now they have preempted it.
"Is there a possibility that we are the ancestors of Captain Jin?" Yang Shirley suddenly said solemnly.
Fatty Wang was stunned after hearing this, and looked up at Hu Bayi in disbelief.
He thought of the items left by his ancestor that he saw in the ancient tower of Shouling. There were exactly three items, used by two men and one woman.
Moreover, the things left behind are very detailed, which is in line with Hu Bayi's character.
"Probably not..." Hu Bayi wasn't sure.
They don't know the truth of this world yet, and they won't understand until they find the guardian of the tomb.
"Don't think about this matter now, the first priority is to find the tomb keeper." Hu Bayi continued.
"It's a pity that Cao Cao wants us to hide our identities, otherwise I really want to expose our identities and let the people guarding the tomb know that we are with Cao Cao." Fatty Wang cursed.
Yang Xueli glanced at Fatty Wang and said angrily: "That's my lord."
"That's Thief Cao." Fatty Wang raised his head and said.
"Okay, Fatty, just talk about this in private, don't say it outside." Hu Bayi advised.
"I understand, I just want to get high." Fatty Wang said with a slight smile.
He is not stupid. If others hear him calling Cao Cao a thief, he will definitely be beheaded.
This is a feudal society where the monarchy is supreme, and there is no right to freedom of speech.
Slandering one's superiors can lead to a U-turn at the least, or the destruction of the entire family.
"Okay, let's rest. We will continue to find the tombkeeper tomorrow." Hu Bayi said, and then went back to his room to rest.
As soon as he opened the door and went out, Hu Bayi saw Sima Yi standing at the door.
Hu Bayi bowed his hands.
Sima Yi returned the favor with a smile on his face and said, "Cao thief sounds much better than Cao Ah Man."
"Ha ha."
Sima Yi smiled and left.
Hu Bayi watched Sima Yi leave with an ugly expression. Sima Yi had overheard their conversation in the room just now.
He was a little worried that Sima Yi would tell Cao Cao about this.
By then, the three of them will be in trouble.
After Sima Yi left, he found a pavilion to sit down and rest.
"It's really interesting." Sima Yi couldn't help laughing.
He was just passing by and happened to hear the people talking inside, and the content of the conversation was very informative.
"Master, you can't fish. It's time for you to go to school."
In the yard, Cao Pi, dressed in rich clothes, was playing with the fish in the pond.
"Can golden scales turn into a dragon?" Cao Pi raised his head and asked.
The maid was asked this question and couldn't answer it.
"If you transform into a dragon with golden scales, you have to cross the dragon gate." Sima Yi said calmly.
"What is Longmen?" Cao Pi asked curiously.
"Longmen... Longmen is the whole world. You and I are the golden scales in the pond." Sima Yi said calmly.
The carp jumped over the dragon gate, soared upwards and turned into a dragon.
The world now is a chaotic pond.
Some people can soar into the sky and transform into dragons, while others can be annihilated in the pond.
"Sir, can I become your disciple?" Cao Pi walked up to Sima Yi and asked.
"Let's wait until you are more relaxed." Sima Yi said, not agreeing, but not rejecting either.
"Okay." Cao Pi responded, and then went to school to study.
"The son of thief Cao is really interesting." Sima Yi said with a smile, then he rested his head on his hand, leaned against the pillar of the pavilion, and dreamed of his dream of being an emperor.
…
Nanyang, Shouchun.
Zhou Sheng has been here for many days, but Yuan Shu has never been seen as emperor.
"Calculating the time, it's time for Yuan Shu to proclaim himself emperor." Zhou Sheng was puzzled.
Zhou Sheng waited patiently.
As long as the imperial seal remains, Yuan Shu will definitely proclaim himself emperor.
His ambition is very big.
In Shouchun Palace.
Yuan Shu lay on the beauty's knees, playing with the imperial seal in his hand.
"Beauty, do you know what this is?" Yuan Shu asked with a chuckle.
"I don't know." The beauty did not dare to answer.
"This is power, the supreme power. With him, there will be the world." Yuan Shu said with a greedy look.
"My lord has supreme power, why do you need to be emperor?" the beauty said.
Yuan Shu's greedy expression froze instantly. He sat up and looked at the beauty next to him.
"What were you talking about just now?"
"I... I didn't say anything."
"explain!"
"My lord... why don't you proclaim yourself emperor?" the beauty said.
"Yes, the Han Dynasty is weak today, and there is nothing. Why don't I proclaim myself emperor?" Yuan Shu held the jade seal and walked out.
The beauty in the room took off her face mask and turned into a middle-aged man.
"Bah, you are a coward. If you want to be the emperor with the imperial seal, Cao Cao will kill you sooner or later."
"I want to be emperor but I'm secretive about it. Let me just follow your words. If it weren't for passing on the imperial seal, I, Ge Xuan, wouldn't bother to accompany you!"
Ge Xuan cursed.
After he entered Tianzun's dream, he came to Yuan Shu.
He also killed the beauty Yuan Shu loved most and disguised himself as her to accompany Yuan Shu... not with the Jade Seal of the Kingdom.
But Yuan Shu was too vigilant. He clung to the Imperial Seal even in his dreams, leaving him no chance to make a move.
He couldn't kill Yuan Shu. Once he did, he would be punished by heaven, and there was no way to avoid it.
After Yuan Shu arrived at the central hall, he called a few counselors and told them his ambitions while holding the imperial seal.
"My lord, if you want to be emperor, you must clear all your relationships first, otherwise you will be easily beaten." One of the counselors said.
Now that he is proclaimed emperor, he is undoubtedly at the forefront of the storm.
