[Three Kingdoms] After offending Wei Guoquan, I went to the peak of my life

It turned out that the people who were nesting on the roof were the accomplices of those who were chasing Sun Quan today.

They lost track of Sun Quan in the vicinity, searched other residents, but found no target, so they naturally suspected the house of the drug seller Xie Zhu.

They only hated that Xie Zhu's martial arts were passed on so miraculously that they didn't dare to force their way in, so they had to wait until the night was quiet and everyone fell asleep before sneaking up to the roof.

The room was pitch black, and it was impossible to see if Sun Quan was in there, and the villain was afraid that Xie Zhu would wake up at any time, and he was afraid that bad luck would happen.He was so vicious, he poured the "killer mace" prepared in the bamboo tube into the room, and evacuated on tiptoe.

Five or six beetles the size of rice grains fell from the roof, turned around in the air, and landed on the ground with a clatter.

The room was too dark, even though Sun Quan's night vision ability was excellent, and he found the abnormal shape of the ceiling, he could only see that the ceiling seemed to be cut open by someone, something shook quickly, and then there was no movement.

After all, the figure of the bug was too tiny, and it landed silently, so it was really hard to detect it in the dark.

Sun Quan felt that the surroundings were extremely quiet.He felt a little restless in his heart, and finally couldn't hold it back anymore. He took out a stone from his sleeve, took out a pinch of kindling from the dry grass under his body, and then turned his head to cover the light with his hands, so as not to let the fire shine. his face.

The dim light illuminated the ground a foot away, and he saw a beetle not far away seemed to be startled by the fire, rushing towards him in a panic.

Sun Quan's vigilance has reached its peak, let alone a beetle, even the movement of a hair will make him vigilant.

Therefore, when the beetle fluttered its wings like a moth to a flame and rushed towards his face, Sun Quan quickly pinched the beetle with his eyes and hands, subconsciously trying to pinch him to death.

Just before exerting force, he saw the strange and bright patterns on the back of the beetle, fearing that the insect might be poisonous, he immediately let go, kicked the beetle aside with his shoed foot, and prepared to burn it with the ignited hay.

This time there was quite a commotion and the flames were flickering. If Xie Zhu and Zheng Ping were not awakened by the "noise", it would be somewhat unreasonable.

Just as Xie Zhu was about to speak, he suddenly felt something crawling towards his feet, so he immediately brushed off the thing and covered it with a bamboo cup next to him.

The golden velvet on Zheng Ping's body happened to have the effect of repelling insects, but no beetles crawled in his direction.

He pretended to be waking up, and when he saw Sun Quan squatting down to prepare to burn the worms, he asked vaguely, "Brother Wu, what are you doing? Could it be that he woke up in the middle of the night and was so hungry that he wanted to taste the roasted worms?" taste?"

Sun Quan always felt that Zheng Ping's words sounded very strange, but he didn't think much about it.After all, "Han Heng" gave him the impression of a humble and polite scholar. This sentence should be because he was not awake and his brain was too confused, so the words did not convey the meaning.

Sun Quan took the initiative to find a good explanation for Zheng Ping, and didn't care about his weird words.

The dry grass in his hand was already burned to the end, almost burning Sun Quan's hand.

He threw the hay on the ground, just covering the poisonous insects.Then he crushed the flames with his feet and lowered his voice.

"Just now I noticed that someone had cut open the thatch covering the house. This little insect rushed towards the fire. It has the tendency to attack people. It has strange patterns on its back. It may be poisonous."

Sun Quan didn't directly say that these bugs might have been dropped by the villain just now, but the other two knew what he meant.

Seeing that Xie Zhu remained silent, Sun Quan didn't want to passively wait for him to make a move, so he asked anxiously, "Is there anyone else on the roof?"

Xie Zhu finally said the first sentence of the night: "I have already left."

Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief, but also a little annoyed: "There is only one person, why let him go?"

Xie Zhu sneered: "Deal with him so that other people know where you are?"

Sun Quan replied calmly: "Since I have become suspicious, I'm afraid it will come again. At that time, it will not only be one or two cowards, but a few dead men from one family, even you have to explain it here. It's better to catch that person just now and force them to ask where those people are staying, it's better to strike first."

The sarcasm on Xie Zhu's face was even stronger: "It seems that you are hiding from me and temporarily avoiding the limelight. It is true that you intend to use me as a knife to clear the way for you."

Sun Quan did not hypocritically deny his small thoughts. Now that he had been noticed, he admitted frankly: "If I die here, those people may not treat Mrs. Xu kindly. Since you have an old relationship with Mrs. Xu, you are already in the same place. What's the difference between entering the game early and entering the game later?"

Xie Zhuyi pointed to Zheng Ping who was watching the play in a muffled voice: "What about him? He is just a northern scribe in exile here, so you don't say anything, drag him into your half-dead situation?"

Zheng Ping, who was suddenly named, showed a little surprise and doubt appropriately, as if he was really a passerby who was involved innocently.

Only then did Sun Quan feel a little more guilty. He bowed to Zheng Ping and said with emotion: "It's my fault that I have troubled Brother Han today. If he needs anything, he can go to the Sun's house in Wu County and report his name." , I will regard Brother Han as the honored guest and treat him with all courtesy."

Sun Quan said this, which means that he no longer intends to conceal his identity.At this time, self-reporting and making promises can not only subtly dissolve the secret grievances of the implicated, but also an expression of entrustment and trust.

If it were someone else, I was afraid that he would be impressed by Sun Quan, not to say that he would immediately serve him, and he would be full of goodwill towards Sun Quan. One day, if he wanted to become an official, he would definitely be the first to consider offering a famous assassin to Wu Jun.

It's a pity that Sun Quan met Zheng Ping.

Zheng Ping was indeed "impressed" by Sun Quan, but this "impressed" was not what Sun Quan thought.

I saw Zheng Ping raised his lips, actively blocked Sun Quan's "heartfelt words", and only replied to his first sentence: "It's good to know."

Sun Quan, who had prepared countless moving speeches, was in a daze for a moment.

What do you know?

When he realized that what Zheng Ping replied was his sentence, "It's my fault that I have troubled Brother Han today", his face suddenly turned green and white.

Fortunately, it was dark and no one could see the change in his expression.He didn't want to think about whether he had misjudged the temperament of this celebrity Han, so he could only attribute it to "frank temperament", thinking that the other party might be anxious because he was inexplicably involved in disputes, and because He concealed his identity before and felt disappointed and dissatisfied, so he said such "pissed off" words.

Sun Quan perfected Zheng Ping's difficulty of "speaking well" in his heart. He was not angry because of his words, but sighed regretfully and apologetically, and turned to Han Zhu who had known Zheng Ping's temper for a long time and was struggling to hold back a smile at the moment.

"Although the man has gone far, I don't know if he will bring him back. The secret planner is watching. If I am in the open and the enemy is in the dark, I am afraid that the traitor will kill me in a few days."

Xie Zhu did not make any objection.Zheng Ping said indifferently: "It doesn't take 'a few days', they will come again tonight and take your life."

Sun Quan's complexion changed.Zheng Ping's expression was too calm, as if he was stating a cold fact, he wouldn't think that Zheng Ping was cursing him with anger and resentment.

But because what Zheng Ping said was related to his life, Sun Quan had to be cautious.

He said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that?"

"The house is dark and dark, the situation is uncertain, and Xie Lang is famous outside, that person dared to come to spy on the first night, and even dropped deadly poisonous insects. It can be seen that those people looking for you are extremely important to your life They value it to the point of "swearing to kill them". They don't care about hurting the innocent, and even dare to take the risk of provoking a drug dealer who only stops children from crying,"

When it came to "only stop children from crying", Xie Zhu's gaze shot over like a sharp sword.

"Even if it's just a temporary idea, after that person returns, just in case, and to confirm the situation at the same time, that person and his accomplices are very likely to do nothing and send people over overnight to eliminate future troubles forever."

Regardless of whether Sun Quan is present or not, since they have already moved to kill for the possibility of "being", they have thrown poisonous insects into the medicine seller's house, so no matter whether the medicine seller is recruited or not, they will be afraid of being retaliated because of the fear in their hearts. Afraid, he summoned up the courage to get rid of the drug seller overnight.

This is where the complexity of human nature lies.Sun Quan didn't realize this because he was in the middle of the game before, but Zheng Ping pointed it out at this time, and immediately said solemnly: "Brother Han is right. There is no need to delay, we should run away immediately."

No matter how angry Xie Zhu was for being involved in this turmoil, he could not change the established facts.

He didn't show any kindness towards Sun Quan, he took out an old saber from under the mat, took the lead, kicked open the wooden door and left.

Zheng Ping and Sun Quan followed closely behind.Not far away, they saw a dozen clusters of torches approaching rapidly on a slope not far away.
