Reborn in the Three Kingdoms Novel - Chapter 47

Chapter 47 Kidnap Lu Su
“You know I’m leaving?” Zhang Chao asked softly as he looked at Cai Yan who had stopped playing the zither.

“Well, I guess it’s time for you to leave, but I don’t know the exact time.” CAI Yan also lowered his head and softly agreed.

“If possible, leave the capital in the afternoon.” Zhang Chao said without concealing anything.

CAI yan is surprised, “so fast.” However, after lifting his head, he slowly put it down again and said, “Then you can remember me after you leave.”

‘”Haha, of course. You are my wife, my wife for life. Even if I forget myself one day, I will not forget you. Don’t worry, this is not the right time. Once the time comes, I will definitely take you out of here. At that time, I will find a place where we can control our own destiny. That will be our wedding day.” What Zhang Chao said was an oath.

After CAI Yan heard this, he also smiled sweetly and said, “Alright, I’ll wait for that day!” After saying that, she could not help but pounce into Zhang Chao’s embrace. Then, the two young men hugged each other, and the woman’s cry slowly sounded.

In the afternoon, when the East City Gate was about to close, a group of people led by Zhang Chao rode out of the city on tall horses.

Unlike when they came, there was an additional Taishi Ci with an iron spear on his back and a soft sedan chair that no one could tell what was inside. The four disciples of the Zhangjiajun army carried him in the middle of the group.

In the soft sedan chair, it was not a concealed slave, nor was it a treasure of gold and silver. Instead, it was just a living person, moreover, it was a young man.

After everyone left the city, a member of the Zhangjiajun army arrived in front of the sedan chair and took off the silk cloth that was plugged into the young man’s mouth. Immediately, a burst of angry shouts rang out. “Who are you? Why are you kidnapping me?”

Suddenly, a loud shout resembled a small stone thrown into the sea. Apart from the slightest movement when it landed, there was no other sound.

Everyone seemed to have known that he would shout this long ago, but none of them were surprised. The original formation did not change at all because of the shouting.

The man in the sedan chair’s mouth was liberated, and he began to say silently, “Why did you kidnap him? Did you kidnap the wrong person?” What kind of hatred do you have? Can you say it clearly? Even if you die, you have to let him understand.

However, none of them answered these questions. They all continued to move forward as if they hadn’t heard anything.

He didn’t know how long it had been until he felt that it was boring, and then his voice stopped.

Along the way, the sky gradually darkened. When the sky was about to turn completely dark, a flame came from a hill ahead. It was the Heavenly Eye members who had arrived earlier sending out a signal.

“Let’s go and rest there tonight.” Seeing that the torch was constantly swinging in the middle of the mountain, Zhang Chao laughed and patted the White Crane Horse under his seat, moving forward.

This was a dilapidated temple. Originally, the incense was considered pretty good in the prime of time, but now, the war was in chaos, and it had long since been abandoned. The rare thing was that the Heavenly Eye members had found this place and made some simple arrangements. It was possible for them to temporarily rest here.

When Zhang Chao and his group arrived here, they saw a large pot of hot water in the temple courtyard. Two Heaven Eyes members were busy in front of them.

“Hehe, Zilong, Ziyi, there’s still hot soup to drink here. It’s really not bad.”

When Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci heard this, they also praised him, “Yeah, when a hero drinks and warmed his body, he can have a good sleep, hahaha.”

Everyone entered the hospital and began to perform their respective duties. Some of them were helping the Heavenly Eye members and some of them were taking on the role of guards.

Zhang Chao and the others had indeed sat down on a piece of hay. In front of them, they had already placed meat jerky, spirits, and other things.

“Come, invite Zijing over as well. His voice has dried up after shouting for a long time.” Zhang Chao instructed one of the brocade guards beside him.

The person in the sedan chair was Lu Su.

Originally, he was still studying in the capital, asking for advice from Great Scholar Cai Yong and entering the capital to enrich his knowledge. What was worth mentioning was that his mentor seemed to be especially fond of him, and he actually answered every question he asked, causing him to learn a lot during this period of time.

But no matter what, on the way to the inn this afternoon, a few burly men suddenly appeared. They could not help but say that they grabbed him and stuffed him into a soft sedan chair. Then, their mouths were shut and they left the city.

Even now, Lu Su still felt as if he was dreaming, because he really could not imagine who he had provoked. Even if they had enemies, they should still be able to reason with him for such a long time.

Just as he was sitting in the sedan chair, thinking about who had kidnapped him, the curtain of the sedan chair was lifted. A large man dressed in black looked at him and said, “Come out. We, Second Childe, welcome.”

“Second Childe, who is he?” Lu Su still wanted to test his background.

However, the burly man did not answer at all. Seeing that Lu Su was only asking questions and his feet did not move, he simply reached out and pulled him out of the sedan chair.

“What are you doing? What are you doing?” Lu Su, who had been pulled out, shouted loudly again. He was not a real scholar, and his swordsmanship could be considered to be at the intermediate level. If it wasn’t for the fact that the sword wasn’t with him now, he would have pulled out his sword.

“I’m just here to chat with you. Alright, this is the outskirts of the mountain. You don’t have to shout. No one else can hear you. Why don’t you save some effort and sit down?” Zhang Chao, who had his back to him, said calmly.

Hearing this voice, Lu Su stopped shouting. He knew what the other party was saying was the truth. Right now, he was like a bird in a cage, that is, he was caught. It would be better to be calm and see who would treat him like this all of a sudden.

Lu Su, who was no longer being pushed by others, walked over and sat beside Zhang Chao.

After sitting down, he saw Zhang Chao’s face clearly through the fire at the side. For a moment, he hesitated and said, “You, are you General Dangkou Zhang Chao?”

“Haha, Zijing has a good memory! We only met once, but you actually remember me. You are indeed extremely intelligent.” Zhang Chao did not expect that after such a long time, Lu Su could actually recognize him, he was both surprised and happy.

Through this point, it was enough to show that Lu Su was very smart, and the person beside him was such a smart person.

“Is it really Zhang Chao?” Seeing that the other party had admitted it, Lu Su was furious. “Why did you kidnap me?”

Originally, he thought that it was the kidnappers or accidentally offended someone, but he never expected that it was the son-in-law of Great Scholar Cai, who was conferred the title of General Dang Kou by the Imperial Court. Lu Su admitted that he had never offended the other party, and now he really couldn’t understand it.

“Zijing, don’t worry. I know you have a complaint, but can you listen to me first?” Zhang Chao looked at Lu Su’s angry expression and was not angry. Because even if it was him, he was still afraid that it would be the same. It was understandable for people to be more excited about this matter.

“Hmph! What do you want to say?” Although Lu Su was very angry, he still had his rationality. He knew that the current situation was not up to him. If he didn’t listen to what the other party said, he probably wouldn’t have the chance to leave this place.

When Lu Su wanted to hear this, Zhang Chao smiled and said, “I just admire your talent, so I want to do something big with you. But I know that you will not agree, so I hope I can understand why I have such a method.”

After saying this, Zhang Chao closed his mouth and looked at Lu Su.

Lu Su originally thought that Zhang Chao would use this opportunity to speak a great truth, and even chatter endlessly. However, he didn’t expect that he would finish speaking so quickly. It was as if he was buying meat in the market. He said that the meat you sold was not bad, so it was as easy as asking for all of it.

“Is that all?” After waiting for a while, seeing that Zhang Chao seemed to have nothing to say, Lu Su asked again.

“That’s all.” On the contrary, Zhang Chao spoke in a natural manner.

“Then, if that’s the case, then I’ll accept your kindness. However, I’m not very talented. I still have a grandmother to take care of at home. I can only accept General Zhang’s kindness. Goodbye.” After saying those words, Lu Su turned around and left.

Of course, he wasn’t really leaving, he was just testing himself, because he believed that Zhang Chao definitely wouldn’t let him leave so easily.

However, he didn’t expect that after turning around and taking a few steps, no one would stop him, as if they were treating him like air.

Seeing that no one was stopping him, Lu Su wanted to speed up his footsteps, but at this moment, Zhang Chao’s voice sounded from behind him. “Oh, look at my memory, I forgot to tell you. Your grandmother was already sent to receive Chen Liu. She should be well-fed and well-fed now. She is very happy.”

Hearing this, Lu Su, who was walking outside, immediately stood where he was. Afterwards, he turned around angrily and came to Zhang Chao again. He quickly asked, “Zhang Chao, what exactly are you going to do?”

“I’ve said everything I need to do. You can refuse and leave immediately. Of course, you can stay and continue to consider. Don’t worry, I won’t force you.” Zhang Chao said innocently.

Seeing that Zhang Chao was not in a hurry, and even pretending to be pitiful, Lu Su was really angry, but he was really helpless. The people here were all his bodyguards, so it was definitely impossible to make a move. Grandmother had fallen into the hands of another person, so it was obvious that she could leave by herself.

Knowing that there was no other choice, Lu Su sat down on the haystack and grabbed a wine jug with his hand and poured it into his mouth.

Lu Su’s action immediately attracted the surprised gazes of Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci. Then, under the gazes of the two of them, the “cough, cough” sounds began to continue. Then, a mouthful of wine finally spat out from their mouths.
