There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

"That's right!" The potter suddenly remembered something, looked around to see if there was no one there, and asked Hua Tuo in a low voice: "Doctor Hua, I heard from Xu Chu that Zang Ba's acute injury was caused by you." Healed?"

Hua Tuo nodded, and said, "Stop the bleeding first, and then wash and suture the wound with medicine. This person is physically strong. If he were an ordinary person, he might not survive."

The pottery merchant suddenly said "Oh": "Then when you sewed up his wound, did you boil it away with numbness?"

Hua Tuo didn't know why the potter asked about this matter, but nodded subconsciously: "Yes, he was still a little conscious at the time, and he was afraid that it would hurt, so he reluctantly drank it."

The potter raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Wouldn't the pain be gone after drinking it?"

Hua Tuo smiled and said proudly, "That's natural!"

"Wouldn't it hurt to cut anywhere?"

"It doesn't hurt at all!"

The potter said "Oh" suddenly: "Does it hurt to be cut into a eunuch?"

Hua Tuo's figure was tilted and almost fell to the ground.

"What, what?"

The potter made a booing gesture, and then said in a low voice: "I think sometimes adding more eunuchs is also a way to balance society, but at present there is a lack of experience in clinical cases, and the usual methods are too painful and cruel. Inhumane... We must study this subject carefully in the future... Or, while Zang Ba is lying there and cannot move, Miracle Doctor Hua will try to practice with him first?"

Hua Tuo: "..."

……

Zang Ba was lying on the bed, looking unhappy and sad.

The wound on his abdomen was still aching at the moment, and he couldn't move his body at will, as long as he moved a little, his entire lower abdomen would feel a burning pain.

He lay on the bed with nothing to do, and greeted Changxi's ancestors and women one by one in his heart.

After the greeting was over, I felt that it was not refreshing enough, so I greeted again.

Outside the bedroom, the potter walked in slowly.

He stood beside the bed, looking at Zang Ba who was lying there with a half-smile, pale and unable to move.

Although it was the first time they met, Zang Ba recognized the young man in front of him at a glance.

"Are you a potter?" Zang Ba frowned.

The potter didn't answer him, but just raised his right hand, spread his five fingers, and slapped Zang Ba hard on the cheek.

With a crisp sound of "pa", a red handprint in the shape of five fingers suddenly appeared on Zang Ba's cheek.

"It's Taifu." The potter said leisurely and authentically.

"Zhuzi! An dare to do this!" Zang Ba was ashamed and angry, wishing he could jump up and rush over to kill the potter.

Considering his current physical condition, let alone a fight with a pottery merchant, even if he moved his body a little, his entire stomach would hurt.

The pottery merchant looked at him coldly, and said slowly: "The slap just now was for my father. Back then, my father appointed you as the captain of the cavalry to beg for the yellow scarf with you, but you ceded the land to stand on your own and failed my father's promise." Sincerely, let alone slap you, even if I eunuch you, it is justifiable."

Zang Ba frowned and stared, wishing he could take down the pottery merchants, but it made him choke so hard that he had no reason to refute.

"Dog! Kill me if you have the ability, a certain family will not be humiliated even to the death!"

The pottery merchant ignored him, just found a place to sit down, looked coldly at Zang Ba, who was lying on the bed, and said, "In these years, you have separated yourself and established yourself as a country within a country in Xuzhou. You cut him into pieces to scare others, but since you took control of Langya Kingdom, you have never formally sent troops to invade Xuzhou, so to be honest, based on this, I will not kill you."

The pottery merchant folded his arms and said slowly: "I saved your life because I wanted to negotiate a deal with you. Whether you do it or not is up to you. You can choose for yourself. Tao will never force you to do it." .”

Zang Ba felt aggrieved, but he had no choice but to "hum".

The pottery merchant was not in a hurry, but said slowly, in a very flat tone: "As far as I know, Taishan County and Langya Kingdom are bordered by mountains and seas. At the beginning of the chaos, everyone in the world has hidden desires. To clean up such a county and country may even It's more troublesome than picking up a state."

Speaking of this, Tao Shang paused, and said again: "So, I decided to protect the mountain and help the bandits. I will use you to rectify Langya Kingdom and annex Taishan County for me. Then you will find a way to go north to Qingzhou and restrain Yuan Shao for me."

Zang Ba burst into laughter when he heard this.

angry.

"It's ridiculous! Why should a certain company help you? Who do you think you are?"

The pottery merchant said indifferently: "I'm the Taifu, Mr. Taiping, Yangzhou Mu! Because you lie here and can't move, I can eunuch you at any time. In addition, after you agreed to Tao's conditions, I I am willing to allocate Taishan County and Langya Kingdom as a whole, and present them to the emperor, and formally give you full power to control them."

Zang Ba was stunned when he heard this.

Lying here and being slaughtered by others, he actually wants to give me so many benefits?And help me build a country within a country.

There is something wrong with this kid!

The potter's face was expressionless, and he continued: "Do you understand? I don't want you to be my subordinate, but my ally, and I can also admit all your vested interests! This is very beneficial to you. There is no harm, Tao feels that you have no reason to refuse."

Chapter 379 It's a Difficulty

What Zang Ba couldn't understand, the potter thought very clearly.

Langya Country and Taishan County, and Qingzhou further north, he still really needs someone to be the front line to help him withstand the pressure.

Since the period of Emperor Daling, a three-way zone has been formed around Langya Kingdom and Taishan County. The local soldiers and civilians have been brought into the mountains, with families as units, and they are not subject to local control. They have assembled into powerful forces like Zang Ba. Fight against the government, and as time goes by, it happens repeatedly.

It really takes a lot of effort to tidy up this Langya country.

The problem now is that the potters don't have the energy to clean up this wild land.

There is Cao Cao in the west, Yuan Shao in the north, Yuan Shu in the southwest, and Sun Ce who escaped from Wu County. In Yangzhou, there are still Yuzhang County and Kuaiji County that have not been handled by the Tao family. The area is almost as wide as the entire Jingzhou, and there are countless mountain barbarians in it.

In such a situation where there are headaches in the southeast and northwest, the pottery merchant has a difficult choice between killing Zang Ba or uniting with him.

Of course, he himself still prefers to kill Zang Ba.

But in the end, reason overcame human nature, and the potters decided to focus on cooperation.

And now that Chang Xi intends to overthrow Zang Ba's position in Langya Kingdom, it happens to give the potters an opportunity to take advantage of.

After Zang Ba calmed down, he thought carefully about the potter's words, and his heart began to be agitated.

He is not a good man and a faithful woman, nor is he a loyal person.

Now being betrayed by Chang Xi, the bad breath in Zang Ba's heart is hard to get rid of, every time he lays on the bed and thinks about it, he almost suffocates himself to death.

But now that he has been seriously injured, even if he reappears, the bandits in Taishan have no strength and prestige to speak of...

If you want to take revenge and deal with Changxi, maybe you really have to rely on the power of the pottery.
