A Journey to the Game World

Chapter 18

"Haha... Mr. Xuande is joking! The old man has already sunk deep into the dust and is unable to extricate himself! The old man has no intention of intervening in the troubled times!" Mr. Shui Jing shook his head and chuckled, thus rejecting Du Huo's invitation.

"Sir, troubled times are just a good time for a hero to show his talents! I think Jiang Shang was old enough to assist King Wu in destroying the merchants. If you can help me eliminate the country's thieves and help the big man, then the name of the gentleman will go down in history and will last forever!" Du Unwilling to give up, Huo persuaded again.

"Mr. Xuande's mood of looking for talents, this old man can understand! But this old man is really not the person Xuande needs!"

"Oh, okay! Since the husband refuses, then I'm not good either, I'm too demanding!"

Even though Du Huo repeatedly asked, Mr. Shui Jing still did not agree.

In desperation, Du Huo had no choice but to give up this idea.

"If Mr. Xuande really wants to support the Han Dynasty and achieve great achievements for a long time, then I can recommend two people to Mr. Xuande!" Mr. Shui Jing, seeing Du Huo looking slightly mournful, couldn't bear it, so he comforted him. .

"In this world today, is there any great sage who can compare to Mr.?" Du Huo pretended to be disappointed.

"The old man is a mediocre person, but which of these two is the real sage!"

"Oh? Mister, please advise!" Hearing this, Du Huo immediately stood up and saluted, asking for advice respectfully.

"In troubled times, if one of the sleeping dragons and phoenixes is found, the world can be at peace!"

"Then, sir, where are these two people living at this time?"

"Phoenix chicks roam around and live in no fixed place. It's quite hard to find! Wolong is more appropriate. At this time, it is in Jingzhou, hiding in the manor to the east and north of Jingzhou city." Mr. Shui Jing replied.

"Big brother..."

"My lord..."

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly sounded from outside the village.In addition, in the surrounding mountains and forests, there are actually horses neighing.

"Zhang Fei..."

"Sir, this should be my subordinate!" Zhang Fei's voice was too special.With just one sound, Du Huo recognized it.

"Hehe... this old man's manor has never seen such a lively scene today. Mr. Xuande, since your subordinates have come to look for you, this old man will not keep you anymore!"

"Mr. Xuande, let's go!"

When Mr. Shui Jing sent Du Huo out of the village, it happened that Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and others came here.

"Sir, I hope you can accept a little gift!"

"I only want to be that wild crane that wanders through the mountains and forests to cultivate and harvest. Gold, silver and money are of no use to me. Duke Xuande doesn't have to do that!"

Du Huo took out a bag of broken gold from his luggage and wanted to present it to Mr. Shui Jing as a token of his gratitude.But he was declined by Mr. Shui Jing!

"This gentleman can be called a sage!" Guan Yu couldn't help sighing as everyone watched Mr. Shui Jing leave.

"It's a pity, Mister is too old, and he doesn't want to be involved in this troubled world anymore!" Du Huo shook his head in disappointment, then got on his horse and left.

……

The next day, in the east of Jingzhou City, Wolong lived.

"Liu Bei, I'm here to pay my respects, sir!"

Du Huo, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei gathered outside the village, carrying gifts, just to see Wolong.

After calling, a young man came out from the village.

"The three of you are here to see my elder brother?" the young man asked.

"Exactly, I'm Liu Bei. These are my two brothers. They are here to see Mr. Kong Ming!" Du Huo introduced Guan Yu and Zhang Fei one by one, and then explained the purpose of their visit.

"Oh! What a coincidence that the general came here. My brother went out for a leisurely trip a few days ago at Cui Zhouping's invitation, and he hasn't come back yet!" the young man replied.

"Do you know where your brother went?" Zhang Fei asked anxiously.

"Elder brother wanders around and never has a fixed destination, so I don't know where he is at this time!"

"Brother... This Kong Ming is not here, let's go back! There are still many things to be busy in Xinye City!" Knowing that Kong Ming is not there, Zhang Feidang is about to drag Du Huo away.

"Okay! Mr. Kong Ming probably won't be back in the short term, so we'll come back later!"

The outcome of this trip had been anticipated by Du Huo long before he set off.

In fact, this time, it's just a cutscene, and it's more to promote the development of the plot.

"Okay, the three generals go slowly! If my brother returns soon, I will go to Xinye City and report to the general!" The young man promised before the three of them left.

"Hey, this little guy really hopes that his brother will work for our big brother!" On the way back to Xinye, Zhang Fei couldn't help talking about his promise to the talented young man.

"My eldest brother is a benevolent and righteous king. Everyone in Jingzhou knows this. It is normal for him to have such thoughts!" Guan Yu looked solemn and determined in his words and deeds. He had no intention of bragging about Du Huo.

However, for the conversation between the two, Du Huo felt very embarrassed.

The word "benevolence and righteousness" is really not appropriate to use it on him at this time.

Looking back on the past, since the crusade against Yuan Shu, until now, Du Huo has never done a thing that can be called benevolent and righteous.

But even so, Du Huo's reputation is still surprisingly good!Even at this time, it has become the benchmark of saints in a certain area.

And whenever others call him the Lord of Benevolence and Righteousness, Du Huo will feel a little baffled. It seems that the label of the two characters of benevolence and righteousness has been firmly attached to him at this time, and it has also been engraved on everyone else at the same time. heart.

A man, except his enemies.

……

One day, Yiji suddenly rushed to Xinye City to send an urgent message to Du Huo.

"Uncle Liu Huang, Cao Cao has led [-] troops straight to Xinye, and has arrived at Bowangpo, please prepare early!"

"Thank you sir for telling me, I will immediately dispatch troops to stop Cao Jun!"

The news of Liu Biao's serious illness had already spread like wildfire, and Cao Cao in the north was already ready to move.

Right now, Liu Biao is seriously ill and can't defend against the enemy, while Cai Mao and others have long wanted to surrender Cao Cao, now only Du Huo can guarantee the safety of Jingzhou.

Bowangpo is the only way to Xinye, so a big battle is inevitable.

After Duhuo received the news, he immediately started making preparations.After this period of recruiting troops, Du Huo's troops had already exceeded [-].

With the two sides evenly matched, Du Huo really didn't have the slightest timidity.

At noon, the army went south to Xinye City and went straight to Bowangpo in the southwest.

On the Bowang Slope, in the Duo Milin Valley, even at noon, some places are like evening.

In the mountains and forests, Cao Cao's [-] troops meandered like snakes.

The enemy generals Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang were originally Yuan Shao's subordinates, but later surrendered to Cao Cao and were named Liehou.

Neither of them are famous generals, nor are they outstanding in strength. It is estimated that Cao Cao sent the two of them here to serve as vanguards.
