"Walk."

Wu Liang nodded in response.

Wu Liang naturally knew exactly why Boss Cao was so anxious to find him. It was nothing more than a matter about black powder. This thing was too important not just for Boss Cao, but for anyone who wanted to do big things.

However, Cao Zhen obviously still doesn't know what happened in Cao's camp last night, let alone what Wu Liang and the Hu army went through.

Boss Cao should know soon.

After all, such a big thing happened. When the officers guarding the camp saw Boss Cao, General Cao Ren and others returning, they

Since he had to report it as soon as possible, by the time Wu Liang saw Boss Cao, he might already know everything about what happened last night.

"By the way, my talented brother, why did I see a place in this camp in such a mess when I came here just now? Do you know what happened?"

While walking,

Cao Chen also asked casually.

"Last night when you and Duke Ming went into the city to encircle Lu Bu's troops, someone attacked the camp. To be precise, the one who attacked the camp was not a person, but a human head."

Wu Liang said concisely.

"Head?"

Cao Zhen immediately put away the carelessness on his face,

With a look of surprise on his face, he said, "What on earth is going on? Has anyone in the camp been injured? Are you and the Hu troops okay?"

As the former commander-in-chief of the Hu People's Army, it is naturally impossible to say that Cao Zhen has no feelings for the Hu People's Army. He also hopes that everyone in the Hu People's Army will get along better and better, and his status in Boss Cao's heart will become higher and higher.

.

"Dian Wei is injured and is currently in a coma. I don't know when he will wake up..."

Wu Liang didn't hide it from him and sighed.

"With Dianwei's skill, how can he be easily injured?"

Cao Zhen suddenly said anxiously, "What is going on? Please tell me in detail!"

"Let's wait until we meet Duke Ming to explain it in detail. I think Duke Ming will ask about it later. You will know it if you listen to it. Besides, all the people in the camp saw the whole thing with their own eyes last night. Now,

It’s not a secret at all.”

Wu Liang was really not in the mood to talk about the matter at the moment, so he just tried to stall Cao Chen with a tired look on his face.

"Okay."

Cao Zhen also patted Wu Liang's shoulder in a considerate manner.

said to him,

"When you see my uncle later, I will go back and have a look at Dian Wei. There are few warriors in the world who are as loyal as Dian Wei. If he has any shortcomings, it will not only be your loss, but I will also feel it."

regret."

"Brother Anmin is interested."

Wu Liang showed a forced smile and nodded.

…

Inside the Chinese military camp.

As soon as Wu Liang walked in, Boss Cao immediately pushed away the "miscellaneous people", leaving only Xi Zhicai and Cao Ang to talk to Wu Liang together.

"Youcai, I've heard someone explain what happened last night in detail, but I don't know what the losses were to the Hu army?"

After taking the initiative to take Wu Liang's arm and take him to sit down next to the main seat, Boss Cao asked with concern on his face.

"Almost all the accompanying supplies of the Hu army were destroyed, and one person was seriously injured. His life or death is still uncertain."

Wu Liang had already thought of the corresponding words, sighed and said dejectedly.

"All destroyed?"

Boss Cao was stunned and asked subconsciously, "What about those thunderous copper cans you used against Zhang Liao's troops last night? Could it be that..."

Boss Cao has also lost his mind, and even if he cares, he will become confused.

He just heard someone explain what happened last night.

How could he not know that the final explosion was those copper cans of black powder?

But now he still asked such a slightly unintelligent question.

"Those copper pots will turn into thunder when exposed to fire. Last night, the man deliberately threw the torch into the carriage where the copper pots were placed. He had the intention of destroying all the copper pots. It was also my fault that he was killed because of my negligence. That person took advantage of the loophole... Alas!"

Wu Liang lamented heartbrokenly.

At this moment, Boss Cao doesn't know Dian Wei, so naturally he doesn't care about Dian Wei's life and death.

What's more, one general has made thousands of bones. Boss Cao has been leading his troops in battle for several years. Whether it is the enemy troops who died in his hands or the men and horses under his command, he has long been unable to calculate an exact number. At this moment, he has another How could you focus on a seriously injured "Soldier of the Hu Army"?

"No one left?"

Boss Cao still asked unwillingly.

"It's all gone."

Wu Liang shook his head helplessly.

"..."

Boss Cao suddenly fell into silence. After a while, he raised his head again and looked into Wu Liang's eyes and asked, "Youcai, you usually like to study those strange books and ancient methods. Those exquisite antiquities will have a chance in your hands." See the light of day again, but I wonder if you have thoroughly studied these thundering copper jars?"

Without Wu Liang’s foreshadowing, Boss Cao automatically classified the black powder copper can as an “antiquities”.

After all, there is no concept of "time travel" at this time, let alone the concept of "traveling into the future". Boss Cao has no such concept in his mind, and naturally he will not think about it in that direction. He will only think that those black powder copper cans are just Wu Liang What I gained from this trip to visit the historical sites.

"Reporting to Duke Ming, all I know now is that this thing is called the 'Shocking Thunder', and it is made using an extremely mysterious ancient secret method. It can split mountains and rocks with great power."

Wu Liang cupped his hands and said, "Originally, I planned to take this thing back to Chenliu and study it in detail. But last night, I suddenly encountered a rebellion from Lu Bu's troops. I had no choice but to use it to solve the urgent need. I originally thought about the remaining 'Zhentian'." Lei' can still be used for my research, but he was plotted by that weird head again, and not even one of the leaders was left... It's all because of the head that was killed that day, does he know the origin of that head?"

The name "Zhentian Lei" had never appeared before the Eastern Han Dynasty.

It was not until the end of the Tang Dynasty that black gunpowder gradually appeared in wars. It was also at that time that the name "Zhentian Lei" came into being, so Boss Cao still has no way to verify it.

"I just heard someone say that Emperor Xian said that the head was Wang Mang's head, a heirloom treasure of the Han Dynasty. He also said that Wang Mang's head should have fallen into Lu Bu's hands now."

Valley attack

Boss Cao was still extremely unwilling, but at this point, he could only grit his teeth and say.

"Exactly so!"

Wu Liang also said angrily, "I suspect that 'Wang Mang' is the 'Luotou clan' who appeared in ancient records. Therefore, 'Wang Mangtou' was able to do such weird things when he fell into Lu Bu's hands."

"What is...'Luotou clan'?"

Boss Cao couldn't help but look puzzled. He had obviously never heard of this statement.

This is not surprising. The "Luotou clan" known to Wu Liang also first appeared in "Sou Shen Ji" written in the Jin Dynasty. Although it records the experience of Zhu Heng, the minister of the Eastern Wu Dynasty, at this time even " "Soochow" has not appeared yet. If there have never been similar records in ancient books before, then Boss Cao has no reason to know.

"I have never seen it before. I only know that the so-called 'Luo Tou Shi' is an extremely rare monster. Although this kind of monster looks like an ordinary person on weekdays, every ten minutes in the middle of the night, its head will detach from the body.

It flies away automatically and doesn't come back until dawn, so it can always do some incredible things."

Wu Liang explained as clearly as possible, "To be honest with you, Lu Bu sent spies to Chenliu to investigate me a few days ago. Fortunately, the Zhu family in Chenliu had some friendship with me. After discovering this, he tied up the spies."

He was sent to Yongqiu by me, and later I interrogated him. At that time, I heard the spies say that he had accidentally seen Lu Bu secretly using blood to support a strange human head.

The head is probably a very powerful magic weapon... At that time, I thought this matter was a bit ridiculous. In addition, I was about to travel with the Hu army again, and Lu Bu was the adopted son who had just been recognized by Duke Ming.

I'm afraid it didn't look good emotionally, so I didn't continue the investigation. Now that I think about it, the spy didn't lie to me. The strange head that Lu Bu offered to me at that time should be Wang Mang's head."

"In addition, last night I carefully inspected the body of the Yulin guard possessed by 'Wang Mangtou'."

"That corpse has been dead for a long time, which means that he has been hidden among the Yulin guards in this way a long time ago. Therefore, I used the process of using the 'Zhentian Lei' and the location where the 'Zhentian Lei' is stored.

He saw everything clearly."

"He was waiting for an opportunity last night. He first attacked me and tried to make a sneak attack. Fortunately, I and my soldiers reacted in time and survived. Then he turned to the carriage where the 'Zhentian Lei' was placed. A human head without arms and legs could not help

To take away the ‘Shocking Thunder’, he decided to do the next best thing and chose to destroy all the ‘Shocking Thunder’.”

"It can be seen that I ruined Lu Bu's plan last night. Lu Bu has already remembered me in his heart. I'm afraid he will still wait for an opportunity to attack me and the Hu army... But until now, I have no idea about that 'Wang Mangtou'

We still know very little and don’t know how to prevent it.”

Having said this, Wu Liang finally stopped, with a slightly worried look on his face.

He was secretly diverting Boss Cao's attention from "Shocking Thunder" to Lu Bu, because next, Wu Liang's first target would be Lu Bu.

"It's strange to say that last night my father and I dug almost three feet into the ground of Anyi City, but we never saw Lu Bu. I don't know where he hid?"

Cao Zhen finally couldn't help but interjected.

"Now Duke Ming has ordered a three-day curfew in Anyi City. From this point of view, Duke Ming should issue a stricter order to close the city, and the period of closure should be appropriately extended. If Lu Bu is still hiding in the city, he will be unable to fly."

Xi Zhicai also understood the importance of Wu Liang to Cao Jun, and had already begun to worry about Wu Liang's safety, so he stepped forward and remonstrated with Boss Cao.

"What Zhicai said is absolutely true. Zixiu, please go quickly and pass the order. Anyi City is temporarily closed for seven days. No one is allowed to enter or leave!"
