Nanyang, Wolong Slope.
"F * ck, Zhuge Liang, you're still a child, yet you're so vengeful. I only flicked your little brother when we were young, and now you want to chase me down the mountain!”
"The soldiers are in a panic. Who knows how long we can live outside?”
At the foot of the slope, a young man in simple linen clothes pointed angrily at the three thatched huts on the slope.
"Hmph, if you don't leave me here, I'll leave you somewhere else.”
"Yours Truly doesn't want to stay here.”
"Just you wait. Sooner or later, I'll come back and burn your thatched cottage!”
After the simple youth finished cursing, he left with his luggage.
On the slope, a ten-year-old child watched the youth leave with a mischievous smile.
……
A month later, 30 kilometers away from Tiger Cage Pass, a ragged youth was hiding in the forest.
This young man was Zhao Yang.
At the same time, a group of horses appeared not far from Zhao Yang.
"My lord, there are still 30 kilometers before we reach the place where the dukes meet.”
A large man in armor said to the man in the lead.
"Yes."
The leader stroked his beard and nodded.
"Who is it? Come out!"
Suddenly, the armored man pointed at the forest and shouted angrily!
The next moment, two soldiers entered the forest. A moment later, Zhao Yang was chased out by the two soldiers.
"Who are you? Why are you hiding here?”
The armored man put his saber on Zhao Yang's neck and shouted angrily.
From the looks of it, if Zhao Yang said anything wrong, his head would fall to the ground in the next moment!
At the same time, the man in the lead looked at Zhao Yang with interest, as if he was sizing something up.
Zhao Yang didn't panic even though he had a knife on his neck. After ten years of signing in and a month of traveling, Zhao Yang's courage had increased rapidly.
At this moment, even though the burly man had a knife to his throat, he did not panic at all.
Instead, he calmly sized up the horse team.
They saw that the troops were all soldiers wearing neat armor. At the same time, in front of the troops, there was a big flag with the word Cao written on it!
"Cao!"
Zhao Yang's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the man in the lead.
"May I ask if you are the Cao Cao, Cao Mengde, who once assassinated that old thief Dong Zhuo?”
"Oh, this little brother also knows me?”
Hearing this, Cao Cao, who was originally watching the show, was shocked and subconsciously said.
"Who in the world doesn't know of Cao Gong's feat of assassinating Dong?”
Zhao Yang smiled when he saw this. He didn't panic at all.
"Zixiao, untie this little brother.”
Seeing Zhao Yang's calm actions, Cao Cao immediately felt a sense of appreciation for his talent and ordered the brawny man.
"My lord, don't be careless. This person might be an assassin sent by Dong Zhuo.”
The brawny man, Cao Cao's cousin, Cao Ren, was shocked!
"No worries, I, Cao Cao, believe in him!"
Cao Cao laughed after hearing Cao Ren's advice. He wasn't worried about Zhao Yang at all.
"Brat, I'm warning you. If you move even a little, I'll chop you up.”
Seeing that Cao Cao was determined, Cao Ren could only give up. However, he warned Zhao Yang.
"Duke Cao trusts me so much. How can I betray his trust?”
Zhao Yang smiled when he heard Cao Ren's threat.
Zhao Yang came to Cao Cao and bowed.
"Zhao Yang greets Cao Gong."
"I've long heard of Cao Gong's feat of assassinating Dong, but I've never been able to meet him. Today's meeting is truly the will of the heavens!”
"Haha, I only did what I should have done. It's just a small matter. Why should the world mention it?”
As the saying goes, flattery will not wear a thousand holes. Cao Cao was a little proud of Zhao Yang's flattery.
Why did Cao Cao agree to Wang Yun's assassination?
Wasn't it all for the sake of fame?
Even if the feudal vassals gave up on chasing Dong Zhuo in the future, Cao Cao would only lead his army to chase after him for the sake of fame!
Of course, this was enough to prove how powerful Boss Cao was!
Just like how Cao Cao treated Zhao Yang.
Seeing this, Zhao Yang smiled and didn't bother to argue with Cao Cao about fame and fortune.
After all, the world was filled with greed. The reason why he came to Tiger Cage Pass was also for profit.
"May I ask why Mister is here?"
Cao Cao was able to achieve great things, so he was naturally not a simple person. Although he was very comfortable with Zhao Yang's flattery, he did not truly trust Zhao Yang.
Hearing Cao Cao's question, Zhao Yang felt relieved.
Cao Cao was a suspicious person. He even said that when he slept, he would turn a blind eye.
From this, one could see how suspicious Cao Cao was.
"I was originally from Nanyang and coincidentally heard that Cao Gong and the others were going to form an alliance with Ziziander, so I traveled thousands of miles to come all the way from Nanyang.”
Zhao Yang said the words he had prepared.
"Nanyang?"
Cao Ren was shocked when he heard Zhao Yang's words.
One had to know that Zhao Yang looked very thin. One look and one could tell that he was a scholar who did not have the strength to even tie a chicken.
However, seeing Zhao Yang's tattered body, Cao Ren believed Zhao Yang's words.
"Mister, why did you come all the way here?”
Cao Cao was also shocked by Zhao Yang's words, but he asked back.
"If I said that I came here for Lord Cao, would Lord Cao believe me?”
Zhao Yang said something that shocked Cao Cao and the others.
"Hahaha, Zhao Yang is here for Cao Gong.”
"Furthermore, I won't leave until I solve three problems for Lord Cao.”
Looking at Cao Cao and the others who were shocked, Zhao Yang continued to speak.
"What plan?"
