Lu Bu was born with sharp senses. When the army passed by a dense grassland, he felt a faint sense of danger.
"Fengxian, what's wrong?"
Ding Yuan asked Lu Bu doubtfully.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred. Hundreds of arrows shot out from the grass, their target was Ding Yuan!
Lu Bu was already on guard, and he brandished his spear so that water could not penetrate it, protecting Ding Yuan in the middle.
Ding Yuan's personal guards were caught off guard and more than ten of them were killed by the arrows.
Ding Yuan shouted angrily,
"Who are you?
How dare you assassinate me!"
The assassins in the grass saw that their arrows could not do anything to Ding Yuan, so they began to rush out of the grass and attack Ding Yuan with their scimitars.
Lu Bu recognized the attire of these people. They were the warriors of the Tuger Tribe who had fought with them earlier.
Among the Xiongnu bandits, there was no lack of hot-blooded people.
Great Tribal Chief Hugh Moore had died, but they did not blindly flee. Instead, they laid in ambush halfway, vowing to take revenge for Hugh Moore.
Unfortunately, in the face of absolute strength, bravery was useless.
The few hundred Xiongnu warriors were quickly wiped out by the Han army.
After returning to the tent, Ding Yuan said to Lu Bu with lingering fear,"
"Fengxian, it's all thanks to you today!
If it wasn't for your protection, I would have lost my life.
You're my savior, so just tell me what reward you want.
As long as it is within my ability, I will naturally allow it!”
The current governor of Bingzhou was not Ding Yuan, but Zhang Yi.
In the fifth year of Zhongping, Zhang Yi unfortunately died in battle with the Hu people, and Ding Yuan took over the position of governor of Bingzhou.
Now that Ding Yuan was a valiant general and held a portion of the military power in Bingzhou, the provincial governor Zhang Yi had to give Ding Yuan some face.
Seeing how grateful Ding Yuan was to him, Lu Bu thought to himself, Isn't this a good opportunity to pay his respects to his foster father?
He cupped his fists at Ding Yuan and said,
"General Ding, I, Lu Bu, am a general of a hundred men. It is my duty to protect the general with my life. I dare not ask for any reward.
However, since the General had asked for Bu to speak, Lu Bu had a presumptuous request.”
"Fengxian, feel free to speak!"
Lu Bu said sincerely to Ding Yuan,"
"General is the pillar of our Great Han Dynasty. Since the day I joined the army, I have admired you very much.
If you don't abandon me, I'm willing to be your foster father and listen to your teachings sooner or later!”
Even Lu Bu felt disgusted when he said these words.
If it wasn't for the mission given by the system, he wouldn't have done it.
Now, he could only hope that his acting skills would conquer Ding Yuan.
It was all for the sake of living, not to be shabby.
Hearing Lu Bu's sincere words, Ding Yuan was overjoyed.
He quickly helped Lu Bu up and said,"
"This is what I want!
It is my blessing to be able to accept Feng Fengxian as my adopted son!
Today, this general will hold a banquet in the camp to celebrate our army's victory and also to celebrate this general's godson!”
Lu Bu knelt on one knee and said to Ding Yuan in a loud voice,"
"Thank you, Father!"
Lu Bu acknowledged Ding Yuan as his foster father, and the system notification sounded:
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the main mission and paying respects to godfather.
Mission reward: 5 free attribute points!
(Note: In order to maintain the balance of the host's attributes, free attribute points can be added to non-highest attributes.）
Host has successfully submitted to foster father Ding Yuan. You have received luck value and the Heavenly Halberd!
The halberd system is set to be the inherited divine weapon of the host's master, and it will be passed down to the host by the host's master.
Host's foster father Ding Yuan's luck value decreased by 10 points. Host's luck value increased by 10 points.
How do you allocate attribute points?”
Through the system's notification, Lu Bu roughly figured out what benefits he would get from worshipping his foster father.
Putting aside the mission reward, he would receive 10 points of luck value from his godfather if he submitted to him. He would also receive other benefits.
For example, the Heavenly Halberd that he had obtained.
Lu Bu said to the system,"
"Add all your free attribute points to Intelligence!”
I can tolerate everything else, but how can I, a person with such a high IQ and divine foresight, bear the IQ of a mentally retarded person?
"Ding! Attribute points added successfully!
After the addition, the host's attributes and skills are as follows:
[Strength: 82][Commander: 54][Intelligence: 13. Political: 5. Charm: 51. Luck: 27。
Appearance: 99
[Skills: Whirlwind Halberd Technique, Horsemanship Mastery, Golden Spear Cannot Fall]”
After adding the attribute points, Lu Bu felt his mind clear up.
He thought to himself that it wasn't easy. His Lu Bu's Intelligence was finally above average.
Looks like I have to worship Godfather more.
"Fengxian, since you're my foster son, I naturally won't mistreat you.
With your contribution in killing the enemy and rescuing me, you can be granted the title of General of a Thousand Men.
When I return to Jiuyuan County, I will give you this position.”
Lu Bu was overjoyed and bowed again,"
"Thank you for your kindness, Father!"
At the banquet in the army, Lu Bu followed Ding Yuan to be a loving father and a filial son.
The soldiers congratulated Ding Yuan for having an adopted son, and the atmosphere of the banquet was very warm.
The next day, Ding Yuan's army returned to Wuyuan County.
Wuyuan County was the military hub of the Han Dynasty against the Xiongnu and other foreign races. The governor of Bingzhou, Zhang Yi, sent Ding Yuan to station 30,000 troops in this county.
Jiuyuan County was Lu Bu's hometown and also a strategic border town of the Great Han Dynasty.
Jiuyuan County was very lively, mainly due to the merchants coming and going from the surrounding areas.
Selling the goods of the Han Dynasty to the Xiongnu and then buying the warhorses of the Xiongnu back, this round trip would be dozens of times the profit.
Although it was very dangerous to do business outside the frontier, there were still many businessmen who were willing to risk their lives.
Because of this, Jiuyuan County's business was very developed, and there were many brothels and taverns.
Many businessmen who had just escaped death would spend money like dirt here.
When the Han army was about to return to Jiuyuan County, two youths were waiting on the city wall.
They looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old. One of them had a delicate appearance and looked very clever.
The other person had dark skin and gave off a stiff and dull feeling.
The delicate youth sat on the city wall and rested his chin on his hand. He looked at the distant horizon and said to the swarthy youth standing beside him,"
"Gao Shun, why haven't our troops returned yet?
Do you think he lost the battle and can't come back?
Will Eldest Senior Brother be in danger?"
The youth called Gao Shun shook his head and slowly said,"
"Eldest senior brother is very strong.
It'll be fine."
"Then will Eldest Senior Brother kill everyone, become a king, and become a general?”
When he was happy, the young man danced with joy, as if he was the one who shocked the world.
Gao Shun was silent for a moment, then said,"
"Zhang Wenyuan, if you use these fantasies on martial arts, Master might be even happier.”
The two youths on the city walls were Lu Bu's two junior brothers, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.
The two of them were as close as brothers to Lu Bu. Ever since Lu Bu left for the war, they had been waiting here every day.
He hoped that he could wait for the news of his senior brother's triumphant return.
"Sigh, you're so boring. I was just thinking about it.
When did I slack off in martial arts?"
Zhang Liao felt that chatting with Gao Shun was very boring and directly turned his head away.
However, he saw smoke and dust rising in the distance, as if an army was coming.
