Zhao Yun was arranged to drink, and was drinking, but suddenly he saw a flash of people and thought there was a change inside. He hurried to see Liu Bei's situation. Sure enough, no one was seen. Zhao Yun was very surprised and left the hall to inquire about the news. He learned that Cai Mao was carrying him.
Some people rushed to the west. Zhao Yun quickly got on the horse with his weapons and took three hundred soldiers to run out of the west gate. When he arrived at the river, he happened to see Cai Mao and asked, "Where has my lord gone?"
Cai Mao said: "Envoy Liu fled to the table, but I don't know why."
Zhao Yun was a very cautious person. Because there was no evidence and did not dare to come out to make rash things openly, he rode his horse around the stream. He never found Liu Bei's trace, nor saw other roads, so he returned to block it.
Cai Mao said in front of him: "You invite our lord to attend the banquet, why do you have to chase him with your troops?"
Cai Mao defended: "The officials and bureaucrats of the nine counties, forty-two prefectures and counties are all here. As a general, do I have any reason to not protect me?"
Zhao Yun said: "Where did you force my lord to go?"
Cai Mao said: "I heard that the envoy left the West Gate and I didn't see him when he arrived by the stream."
Zhao Yun was still a little confused. Until he looked around the stream, he only saw some water marks on the other side, and he could roughly see the footprints of the horses.
Zhao Yun thought to himself and said, "Did you even jump over the horse?" So he sent three hundred soldiers to look around, but there was still no big gain. When Zhao Yun was about to find Cai Mao, he had already brought his troops into the city.
.
Zhao Yun greeted the guards of the West Gate and said, "Liu Bei ran away from the West Gate on a horse."
Zhao Yun thought about going to the city to continue inquiring, but was afraid that Cai Mao would set up an ambush in the city, so he had no choice but to take 300 soldiers back to Xinye first.
After Liu Bei rode the Lu horse, he felt like a dream after crossing the stream, and thought to himself: "This stream is several feet wide, and the horses jumped past. Is it really God's will!"
He rode his horse all the way, until the sun was about to set, and suddenly he saw a shepherd boy sitting on the back of a cow, with a beautiful sound from his mouth and walking towards him.
When Liu Bei saw the shepherd boy's leisurely appearance, he sighed, "I'm not even as good as him." So he stopped and observed the shepherd boy, his eyes full of envy.
When the shepherd boy saw Liu Bei's actions, he stopped the cow, took the flute to his hand, observed Liu Bei for a long time, and said, "Is the general Liu Bei and Liu Xuande of the Yellow Turban Army?"
Liu Bei did not expect that someone knew him in such a place. He was very surprised and asked, "You are just a shepherd boy from a remote village. How can you know my life!"
The shepherd boy smiled and said, "I don't know, because I often serve my master. When guests come, they always talk about it, saying that there is a man named Liu Bei who is seven feet and five inches tall. He put down his arms and was almost over his knees, and he could see his eyes.
My own ears are the heroes in the world today. When I see the generals like this, I guess they are talking about Liu Bei."
Liu Bei said: "Is your master who is that master?"
He replied: "My master is Sima Hui, his name is Decao, he is from Yingchuan, and his name is Mr. Shuijing."
Liu Bei asked again: "Who is your master and friends?"
Reply: "Yang Pang Degong, Pang Tong is a friend."
Liu Bei said: "Who is Pang Degong?"
The boy said, "It's a relationship between uncle and nephew. Pang Degong's name is Shanmin, and he is ten years older than my master. Pang Tong's name is Shiyuan, and he is five years younger than my master. One day, my master was picking mulberry trees on the tree, and Pang Tong happened to visit him.
, Sitting under the tree, we discussed together, and we never felt tired. I like Pang Tong very much and call him his younger brother."
Liu Bei was very happy and said, "Where does your master live?"
The shepherd boy pointed not far away and said, "In the forest ahead is the manor."
Liu Bei seemed a little impatient and said, "I am Liu Bei, so please take me to see your master."
So the boy took Liu Bei forward for two miles and finally arrived in front of the village. Liu Bei quickly got off his horse and entered the middle gate. Suddenly, he heard a sound of piano from inside, which was very beautiful. Liu Bei told the boy not to report it first.
I listened attentively.
Suddenly the sound of the piano stopped, and a man walked out with a smile and said, "In a quiet place, there was a high-profile tune in the sound of the piano. This is a hero eavesdropping."
The boy pointed to the one who came out and said, "This is my master, Mr. Shuijing himself."
Liu Bei observed the man's appearance and saw a pine-shaped crane bone, and his weapon was extraordinary. He hurriedly stepped forward to salute. During the process of salute, water droplets dripped from his sleeves.
Mr. Shui Jing said: "It seems that we are spared from the disaster today!"
Liu Bei was very surprised after hearing this, and the boy introduced: "The one I brought is Liu Bei."
Mr. Shuijing asked to enter the cottage to sit down with the guests' etiquette. Liu Bei looked around and found that the shelf was full of books, and many pine and bamboo were planted outside the window. A qin was placed on the stone bed, and the clear gas was floating around. It was real.
It is quiet and elegant.
Mr. Shui Jing asked, "Is there anything wrong with Mr. Ming coming here?"
Liu Bei said: "I passed by this place by chance and happened to meet a child's guidance to see your nobleman. I am very lucky!"
Mr. Shui Jing smiled and said, "Mr. Ming doesn't need to hide it. He really wants to escape here today."
Liu Bei told Mr. Shui Jing about the assassination by Cai Mao in Xiangyang and the pursuit, and replied: "I have already known the general appearance of Ming Gong."
So he continued to ask: "I heard that my husband's reputation has been for a long time, but why is he still so depressed now?"
Liu Bei said: "The fate is unbearable, so it has reached this point."
Mr. Shui Jing said: "It's not like this, it's all because there is no easy-to-use talent on the side of the general!"
Liu Bei said: "Although I don't have any talent, Wen has Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, Jian Yong, Wu Guan, Zhang, Zhao Yun and others. They all tried their best to assist me, and they took some effort."
Mr. Shui Jing smiled and said, "There is another person around you, named Yuyi."
Liu Bei felt that the other party seemed to have the ability to predict the future, and he felt that the other party was even more mysterious.
Mr. Shui Jing analyzed: "Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun are all generals who are enemies of thousands of people. Unfortunately, no one is good at using him. Sun Qian, Mi Zhu and others are just white-faced scholars, with limited talents, not just the world's best practices.
Only Yu Yi knew about his talents five hundred years ago and five hundred years later, but he always had different opinions from your Excellency. Isn’t it a pity?”
Liu Bei shook his head and sighed: "Yu Yi's idea is too shocking and cannot be accepted. In addition, I often go to the valley to seek talent, but I am not lucky and can't meet anyone!"
Mr. Shui Jing said: "Have you ever heard Confucius say that there must be a loyal and trustworthy talent in ten rooms, so how could there be no one?"
