Liu Hao was a little dumbfounded.
Didn't you say that a tiger's body would tremble and a fierce general would come to surrender?
Dian Xiong laughed." That won't do. Killing people in the city is a capital crime. If I follow you, won't I drag you down with me?"”
As expected of an honest person, loyal!
Liu Hao was touched and continued,"" To be honest, I'm a relative of the royal family of Phoenix Dance. Although I don't have a title anymore, I'm still the uncle of the current emperor. Even the government of Hongyi County has to give me some face. It's definitely not a problem for me to take you in.”
"Brother, it's inconvenient for you to start a fire in the forest. Not only do you have no wine to drink, you can't even eat a mouthful of hot food.”
Liu Hao patted his chest and promised. It sounded very convincing.
Dian Xiong recalled that after he killed someone in a fit of anger, he had been hiding in the forest for a few months. He had almost run from Chen Liu to Hong Yi. He had not eaten enough for a day, and his mouth was almost full.
This kind of life was really not for humans to live.
Gulp.
Dian Xiong took a big gulp of wine from Liu Hao's wine bag and agreed without hesitation,""Hey, since you're related to the royal family of Phoenix Dances, you'll definitely be able to protect me in the future. I'll follow you from now on and do whatever you tell me to!”
As he spoke, he took two steps forward and threw the wine bag on the ground. He knelt in front of Liu Hao and said loudly,"Dian Xiong greets my lord. I'm willing to go through life and death with my lord!”
"Please get up."
Liu Hao was secretly pleased. This was Dian Xiong!
Since it was a chaotic time, he should take in the most powerful generals, ride the fastest horses, and sleep with the most beautiful women.
Liu Hao hurriedly helped him up and said earnestly,"We'll kill thieves together, so we'll naturally share our blessings together in the future. We'll be like brothers, so why are you kneeling?”
Dian Xiong was very touched that a member of the royal family of the Phoenix Dances would call a murderer his brother. He said firmly,""That won't do. Since I've acknowledged you as my lord, the etiquette can't be abandoned!”
Dian Xiong's arms were more than a thousand pounds strong, but his body remained unmoving. Liu Hao couldn't help him up, so he could only pat Dian Xiong's burly shoulder.
Of course, he wouldn't be like those saints who transmigrated and sharpened their brains to do stupid things like abolish slavery.
However, thinking about it made him drunk.
Dian Xiong, a fierce man who couldn't read, actually knew that etiquette couldn't be abandoned. It seemed that the Confucian Sect's loyalty to the emperor and love for the country was very popular!
With this super bodyguard protecting him, Liu Hao wasn't worried about his own safety. Even if there were another thousand brocade scarf thieves, they would just be delivering food to Dian Xiong.
"My lord, there are still people shouting the slogan that the heavens are dead. It seems that there are also brocade scarf thieves.”
Dian Xiong sensed the movement and pulled out his halberds, quietly moving towards the edge of the forest.
At this moment, a sharp and old voice suddenly sounded outside the forest.
"Brocade Scarf Rebellion Thief, you dare to plot against my lord, die!”
It was as sharp as an awl and contained infinite killing intent. Even the leaves rustled from the shock and the birds flew up in panic.
Then, a cold light shot out of the forest like a shooting star.
"One of us!"
Liu Hao was overjoyed when he heard that familiar voice.
Dian Xiong poked his head out to take a look and was surprised."My lord, this old man under you is very powerful.”
Chi chi!
Liu Hao only heard two sword sounds in the air. There were still two Brocade Scarf Thieves outside the forest, but before they could move, they fell to the ground.
Two bloody holes appeared on the back of their hearts, spurting out blood.
"Uncle Cao's martial arts are so powerful!"
Liu Hao was overjoyed. He turned around but didn't see anyone. When he turned around again, an old man with a hunched back stood beside him, giving him a fright.
"My lord, did I hurt you?"
This old man was Uncle Cao. He was tall and strong, and he wore a cloth shirt. He looked pale and beardless, and had a kind expression. His voice was sharp, and he did not look like the same person as the cold-blooded killing just now.
Liu Hao's parents were both dead, and he only had this loyal old servant to serve him.
Back then, King Yi of Dujiang had a strange hobby. He liked to raise death warriors.
They also left behind a family rule. Every generation's family head would have a warrior of sacrifice who was highly skilled in martial arts and had been chaste since childhood to protect the master.
These men of sacrifice had all gone through a strict selection process, and their loyalty was unquestionable.
Uncle Cao was the guardian of this generation's family head.
The old man originally had no name. Liu Hao was studying under the Kuoyang Imperial College, and almost everything in the family depended on this old man.
"My lord, are you alright? Who is this warrior?”
Uncle Cao noticed Liu Hao's strange expression and thought that he had been injured by the brocade scarf thief. He hurriedly bowed forward and looked at Liu Hao with concern. However, when he saw Dian Xiong, his pupils suddenly contracted.
Liu Hao smiled indifferently and waved his hand."It's fine. Dian Xiong is one of us. Just now, we encountered a group of brocade scarf thieves and it was all thanks to him that we were saved. I'll have to trouble Uncle Cao to send the heads of these brocade scarf thieves to the yamen.”
At the end of Feng Wu's life, Zhang Jiao was known as a virtuous teacher. He rose up in revolt but was extinguished by the imperial court. The Brocade Turban Army was not tolerated by the world. It could be said to be a rat that was hated by everyone.
The imperial court of the Great Phoenix Dynasty also set up a reward for the head of the brocade scarf thief, encouraging everyone to kill the thief and protect the country.
Uncle Cao nodded and suddenly choked,""Sigh, my lord has lost some weight again. The weather has been cold recently. Hurry up and go home to put on more clothes.”
"Uncle Cao, I'm not cold."
Liu Hao replied helplessly. He rolled his eyes and smiled wickedly,"Uncle Cao wants to deal with the yamen. You can't not have a name. I'll give you one.”
The old man quickly knelt down and said respectfully,""My lord is as knowledgeable as the sea. Please give me a name!”
As expected of someone with martial arts, his voice was as loud as a bell, causing people's eardrums to hurt. Liu Hao smiled playfully and said,"From today onwards, Uncle Cao will be called…Uncle Cao!"
