    Cao Cao leaned against a big tree, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.  However, not long after he fell asleep, suddenly, there were bursts of tragic fighting sounds not far away.

    Cao Cao was startled, thinking that Dong Zhuo's pursuers were coming after him again, so he jumped up quickly and looked behind him with big eyes.  Cao Cao watched for a while and found no trace of his pursuers, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

    "Aman, are you awake? Oh, it must have been the sound of fighting that woke you up. Don't worry, this is not a pursuit. I just led people over to see this group of horse thieves looting a small village."

    Cao Cao frowned, forced away his sleepiness, and then said slightly unhappily to Xiahou Dun.

    "Since there are horse thieves doing evil and harming the people, why doesn't Yuan Rang lead his troops to rescue him?"

    "Aman, it's not that I want to stand by and watch. But now that we are wanted by Dong Gou, portraits of you and me are plastered everywhere. If I lead the army to rescue, if I am recognized by the horse thieves, I will attract the pursuers.  The siege will probably cost Aman his life!¡±

    "How are you any different from an animal if you don't save yourself from death? Yuan Rang, all we want to do as human beings is to have a clear conscience. Everyone, please get up and join me in wiping out these evil horse thieves."

    Cao Cao¡¯s face hardened and he ordered without any doubt.  Seeing this, Xiahou Dun knew that he could not persuade Cao Cao, so he had no choice but to obey.  Soon, Cao Cao led less than two hundred soldiers and horses towards the village where the sound of fighting was heard.

    At this time, in the village, a group of about a hundred horse thieves were galloping through the village, killing all men they saw, old and young.  Some strong men carried hoes and wooden sticks to resist, but they were no match for these horse thieves who lived a life of knife-edge licking blood. Soon, seven or eight of the strong men in the village were killed.

    An old man who seemed to be a respected man in the village was trampled on the head by a giant man. Next to him, countless villagers kneeling on the ground screamed and begged for mercy, asking the giant man to let the old man go.  But the giant man acted as if he couldn't hear him, stepped on the old man with one foot, and held the girl who had been as beautiful as a flower in one hand. With the other hand, he kneaded the girl's body wantonly, and kept making lewd laughter in his mouth.  .  When many horse thieves nearby saw it, they couldn't resist the urge to crotch, and they rushed towards the crying women around them, tearing their clothes to pieces like evil wolves.

    Cao Cao rode his horse to the front of the village. Looking at this tragic scene, he immediately became furious and Ling Ran shouted!

    "How dare you rape women and kill people in broad daylight! It is unjust! Yuan Rang, chop all these thieves into pieces immediately!"

    ¡°The last general takes orders!!¡±

    When Xiahou Dun saw the scene around him, he was so angry that blood flowed all over his body. With a wave of his sword, he led his soldiers into the village.  Those horse thieves who were still doing evil were unexpectedly hacked to death by the charging soldiers.  Xiahou Dun rode straight towards the giant man who was stepping on the old man. Seeing that Xiahou Dun was as powerful as a tiger and with terrifying momentum, the giant man quickly pushed the woman he was holding in his arms.  Xiahou Dun was afraid of hitting the woman, so he quickly pulled the reins. The horse's speed was too fast, and it hit the door of a wooden house. Fortunately, Xiahou Dun reacted in time and had already jumped up and slashed at the giant man with his sword.  The giant man was well prepared and raised his sword to meet him. When the swords and swords collided, a burst of sparks suddenly burst out.  , the swords began to dance, the blades were sharp and violent, and the giant man was unable to resist. Just when Xiahou Dun landed the seventh sword, the giant man's sword cracked in response, and his whole body was split in half by Xiahou Dun's sword.

    At the same time, seven or eight of the horse thieves around had been killed. The remaining ones were so frightened when they saw the giant man being killed that they quickly fled on horseback.  However, Cao Cao did not want to let go of a horse thief, so he quickly led his soldiers to pursue him. He chased them two miles away and killed them all before leading his troops back to the village.

    As soon as Cao Cao returned to the village gate, the old man whose head had been stepped on by the giant man and the villagers who had escaped from the horse thief's knife all knelt down towards Cao Cao.

    "The general is so benevolent and righteous that he saved the lives of 120 villagers in our Niuhe Village. We have nothing to repay, so we can only kowtow to thank the general for his great kindness."

    The old man said excitedly with a tearful tone. After finishing his words, he kowtowed heavily. The villagers behind him also followed suit and kowtowed to Cao Cao.  Cao Cao quickly dismounted and helped the old man up.

    "When the road is rough, I draw my sword to help. I am just doing a little work, and I would never dare to accept such a great gift from you. Please stand up and don't let me lose my fortune."

    At Cao Cao¡¯s urging, the villagers of Niuhe Village stood up one after another, and Cao Cao said some polite words to the villagers of Niuhe Village.  I learned that the old man was the head of Niuhe Village.  After the old village chief thanked Cao Cao repeatedly, he asked about Cao Cao's name. Cao Cao was running for his life now, so he didn't dare to show his real name to others, so he randomly found a name to fool him.  Later, the old village chief asked why Cao Cao appeared here. Cao Cao easily answered that he was?A certain young man from a noble family who is studying abroad happened to pass by here today.  The old village chief saw that although Cao Cao was dressed mediocrely, he had an extraordinary demeanor and an unusual air about him.  At that time, many young masters traveled with their private soldiers. Most of these private soldiers were dressed in armor and were almost the same as the soldiers of the imperial court.  So there was no doubt immediately that I believed Cao Cao's words.  Moreover, he and a group of Niuhe villagers warmly invited Cao Cao to stay and rest for a few days, giving them a chance to repay their life-saving grace.

    And Cao Cao saw that all the soldiers around him were looking forward to it, and from the tired looks on their faces, he knew that they were exhausted, not to mention that they would have to go through a long period of escape with him in the future.  , if you don¡¯t have enough strength, I¡¯m afraid it will be difficult to continue.

    After Cao Cao thought about it for a while, he decided to stay for one day and wait until early tomorrow morning to replenish his energy and lead his army to continue fleeing.

    The villagers of Niuhe Village were overjoyed that Cao Cao, the savior, was willing to stay. They entertained him warmly and brought out the best food and drinks in their homes to share.  Cao Cao and his subordinates were finally able to relax their tense nerves and have a peaceful meal. After they all devoured their food, they rested in the room given by the villagers.

    At night, Niuhe Village is so quiet that it makes people feel frightened.

    "What!? You said that the benefactor was Cao Cao who assassinated Dong!! This matter is very important! Huang Shu'er, don't talk nonsense!"

    "Really, village chief. I just came back from Luoyang a few days ago, and I remember this portrait of Cao Cao clearly. Do you know, village chief, Cao Cao's head is worth thousands of gold, and he can also be granted the title of Marquis of ten thousand households!  "

    In the old village chief¡¯s house, a sinister man with sinister features and a thin body whispered to the old village chief in a seductive tone.

    This sinister man, named Huang Er, is cunning and afraid of death.  When horse thieves attacked the village today, he had been hiding in the water jar at home and was able to escape with his life.

    "Oops, little squirrel! Even if the benefactor is Cao Cao, we can't repay him with kindness. Moreover, I heard that Dong Zhuoqi was the most traitorous official in the history of the Han Dynasty.  The benefactor killed him, which shows his unparalleled bravery. We should worship such a person, how can we betray him!"

    "Hehe. Village chief, don't talk nonsense here. I tell you, Dong Zhuo also said that those who harbor are also guilty! If the court finds out that our Niuhe Village took in Cao Cao and refused to report it, then Niuhe Village will  It's going to become a dead village. In fact, even if you disagree with the village chief, you can't change Cao Cao's fate.

    "Because I had already spread the news throughout the village. Except for the village chief, everyone in the village agreed to tie up Cao Cao and hand it over to the court in exchange for a thousand pieces of gold and ten thousand households.  "

    "You! You! How dare you not discuss this huge matter with me in advance!! Huang Shu'er, I am the head of a village! So

    This Wanhu Hou is mine!  No one can steal it!  Otherwise, tell Cao Cao right now and ruin your plan!  "

    Huang Er seemed to have guessed that the old village chief would change his mind, and a very sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

    It¡¯s three o¡¯clock in the night.  Cao Cao and others were sleeping soundly, but Xiahou Dun was the only one. For some reason, his eyebrows were twitching all night and he could not sleep.

    Suddenly, Xiahou Dun heard countless subtle footsteps outside the room. He immediately jumped up and sneaked to the window with squinted eyes to take a look.  When he saw it, he was shocked and angry.

    The Niuhe villagers all had guarded faces and crazy eyes, and they actually surrounded their houses with weapons and hemp ropes.

    Xiahou Dun knew what they were going to do as soon as he looked at their eyes, because this kind of eyes was so familiar to him and could be seen everywhere in Luoyang. It was an endless desire for power, money and wealth.

    "These white-eyed wolves, Meng De did not hesitate to reveal his identity to save them. But they repaid kindness with hatred and wanted to tie up Meng De in exchange for gold, silver and power!"

    Xiahou Dun was so angry that he grabbed the big knife on the table, kicked open the door, and shouted loudly!

    ¡°You bunch of ungrateful white-eyed wolves deserve death!!¡±

    Xiahou Dun rushed out of the room, came to the two men, and slashed them both to death at the same time.  Xiahou Dun's shouts of killing soon awakened Cao Cao's soldiers. The soldiers had been running for their lives for days. When they heard the shouts of killing, they immediately tensed up and quickly picked up their weapons and killed them.  When they saw what the Niuhe villagers were holding, they immediately understood and became furious. In their eyes, these people were no longer ordinary people, but ungrateful people.  Rolling eyes beast.

    "Oh! Yellow rat, you've done me a disservice! Spare your life!!"

    When the old village chief saw Xiahou Dun and a group of soldiers coming out, he was so frightened that he lost his soul and knelt down with tears on his face.Begging for mercy.  Xiahou Dun sneered again and again, thinking it was a wolf barking and a dog barking, and led his men and horses to kill the Niuhe villagers.

    For a time, screams, begging for mercy, and fighting could be heard endlessly.  Everywhere in Niuhe Village was once again stained red with blood, and soon these Niuhe villagers turned into cold corpses with miserable faces.

    After the shrill sound of weapons stabbing and slashing, it stopped for a long time.  Cao Cao walked out with a sad and uncomfortable look on his face. He looked at the corpses scattered on the ground, and his emotions were indescribably complicated.

    In fact, Xiahou Dun woke up when he killed the first person, and he had been listening to the sounds outside the room.
