Chen Gong's face was filled with excitement.
It was obvious that he was infected by Cao Cao's heroic spirit and his willingness to sacrifice his life for justice. He was so impressed that he prostrated himself on the ground.
next moment
"Bang!"
Without any hesitation, he knelt down in front of Cao Cao.
"Brother Meng De is truly a peerless national scholar, with outstanding wisdom and courage. Please accept Chen Gong's bow.”
As he spoke, he bowed to Chen Gong.
“……”
Cao Cao was also stunned, clearly not expecting his words to have such an effect.
However, he immediately came back to his senses and laughed heartily.
"Hahaha, Brother Gongtai, there's no need to be so polite.”
Cao Cao quickly stepped forward and helped Chen Gong up.
With this bow, Cao Cao's heart calmed down.
How could he not know that what he said earlier was just a test?
Just as Ding Han had said, Chen Gong hated Dong Zhuo to the core.
The fame and benefits that he had gained from assassinating Chairman Dong were slowly being displayed.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao admired Ding Han even more.
It seemed that Ding Han had already expected Chen Gong to be like this before they even passed Zhongmu County.
After being helped up by Cao Cao, Chen Gong explained,
"I have long hated Dong Zhuo to the core. I have long wanted to wield the Three-Foot Sword and kill the traitor of the country with my own hands.”
"Now, you've done what I, Chen Gong, wanted to do but couldn't. Chen Gong is deeply impressed.”
Looking at the excited Chen Gong, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh,
"But I didn't plan well, and the assassination failed. I fled in the wilderness.”
"If it weren't for my cousin Ding Han's help, I'm afraid my life would have been lost in the capital.”
Chen Gong shook his head and said excitedly,"
"Although Brother Meng De failed to assassinate the thief, his name has already been recorded in history.”
His current success had completely convinced Cao Cao.
In modern terms, he had become Cao Cao's little fan.
Looking at Chen Gong's expression, Cao Cao smiled again and sighed,"
"To be honest, I'm already regretting assassinating Dong.”
Cao Cao's gaze was sincere, but Chen Gong's eyes flashed with doubt.
"Brother Meng De, what do you mean?"
"Who am I, Cao Cao? I should raise my arms and shout loudly, gather all the people of insight in the world, form a rebel army, save the common people from fire and water, and do something spectacular.”
"This is what I should do."
"And it's also the hardest thing to do."
"However, I chose the easiest one and went to assassinate Dong Zhuo with a dagger.”
"I, Cao Cao, have actually fallen into the path of an assassin.”
"Who is Dong Zhuo? He's not worthy of me assassinating him.”
"Besides, even if Dong Zhuo is really dead, wouldn't there be other heroes who would bring chaos to the country?”
"Thus, Cao Cao's assassination of Dong seemed to be a wise and courageous act, but in reality, it was just the bravery of an ordinary man and the stupidity of a fool.”
This was what he had thought about that day at Dong Zhuo's residence. It was only then that he truly understood how accurate Ding Han's words were.
So what if Dong Zhuo was dead?
There was no one in the world who could truly save the Great Han Dynasty.
And he, Cao Cao, was also willing to be this person.
Not far away, Ding Han nodded in relief. Watching the live broadcast, he felt as if the pony he had raised for many years had grown up.
Before assassinating Dong, Cao Cao could be said to be a very angry youth. But now, Cao Cao had finally grown up.
On the other side, Chen Gong had a look of realization.
"Brother Meng De's words woke me up from a dream.”
"Brother Meng De, may I ask why you are going?”
"Why are you going?"
Hearing Chen Gong's words, Cao Cao immediately perked up.
After sorting out his thoughts, he slowly gave an answer.
"Return to the village and gather the people of insight in the world to attack Dong Zhuo.”
"Reforming the mountains and rivers, rebuilding the universe."
Cao Cao's voice was not loud.
But in Chen Gong's ears, it was like a heavy blow
deafening
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
Chen Gong nodded excitedly. He had already made up his mind.
"Chen Gong has a wish that Brother Meng De must agree to.”
"Please speak." Cao Cao hurriedly nodded.
"Please allow me to be Brother Meng De's servant and assist you in creating a great undertaking.”
"It's easy to kill thieves, but difficult to achieve great things. Once we raise the flag, we may face the danger of being crushed to pieces at any time.”
Cao Cao's expression became serious.
Chen Gong's gaze was filled with determination.
"For the great cause of the universe, I, Chen Gong, will die nine times without regret.”
His eyes flickered with light, as if he had already seen the peace and prosperity after the great cause was accomplished.
"Let me ask you again. I'm all alone now. What should your parents, wife, and children do?”
Hesitation appeared in Chen Gong's eyes. How could he abandon his parents, wife, and children just like that?
However, Chen Gong's gaze soon became more determined.
"Forget it. At this time, I can't care much.”
"I, Chen Gong, will pretend that none of this ever happened.”
Hearing this, Cao Cao's expression changed and he was filled with respect for Chen Gong.
He placed his hands in front of his chest and bowed to Chen Gong.
"Brother Gongtai, you are the best of the best. I admire you.”
If Ding Han had said that Chen Gong was a talented person, Cao Cao would have been skeptical. After all, he had never seen Chen Gong's talent.
However, Chen Gong's boldness was worthy of his bow.
"No, Chen Gong and Brother Meng De are standing side by side here.”
"Brother Gongtai, accept my bow."
As Cao Cao spoke, he knelt down towards Chen Gong, and Chen Gong followed suit. The two of them wanted to face each other and kowtow.
With this bow, Chen Gong was considered to be under Cao Cao's command.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for helping the bound character Cao Cao subdue a talented person: [Chen Gong, Salted Fish Reward: Medicine (Complete)]
[Medicine: After using it, you will obtain the Perfect Level Medical Skill.] [Ability levels are divided into Beginner, Skilled, Master, and Perfected]
Not far away, Ding Han, who was watching the live broadcast, also heard the notification sound of the salted fish system.
Perfect level medical skills added another life-saving skill. Moreover, in this era, this thing was even more powerful than the Eighteen Horsemen of Yanyun.
This salted fish system is still very kind
At the very least, he felt very comfortable when he saw this reward.
Just as he was about to start learning, Yan One rushed over and interrupted Ding Han's train of thought.
"My lord, we've discovered more than 200 soldiers from Zhongmu County heading this way. I'm afraid they have ill intentions.”
"County soldiers?"
Hearing Yan One's report, Ding Han also frowned. Could it be that Chen Gong was not truly loyal?
