As the saying goes, adding icing on the cake is worse than providing help when it is timely.
At this thought, Cao Zheng stood up, knelt down and bowed to Lin Chong and said, "The apprentice will never abandon the master.
He will keep him by his side and take care of him.
Originally, I just wanted to stay with the master and learn some martial arts so that I could have a chance to gain a good background in the future, but I didn't want to."
The master has such great ambitions, which makes his apprentice admire him very much.
Although the apprentice has low abilities, he is better than him because of his nimble hands and feet and his loyalty.
If the master never abandons him, he is willing to be a pawn by his side in this life, riding in front of him and behind his horse, holding a whip and a stirrup, and will never be separated.
"Cao Zheng said this and paid homage to Lin Chong. land.
Originally, after Lin Chong said these words, he secretly observed Cao Zheng's expression.
Shi Wengong had already understood what he said to him, so there was no need to worry.
However, he had never mentioned this matter to Cao Zheng.
It happened to be said today.
Come out and see what Cao Zheng thinks.
Although Cao Zheng is also one of the heroes in Liangshan, history has gradually changed and he has to be on guard.
Fortunately, Cao Zheng's timely statement dispelled Lin Chong's heart. of all concerns.
Lin Chong stood up, bent down to help Cao Zheng up, and said to him with satisfaction, "Please get up quickly.
It doesn't have to be like this.
Although we are called master and disciple, we are as close as brothers.
It is both fate and God's will."
I have always regarded you as a confidant, and sooner or later I will put you to good use.
From today on, you must not only practice martial arts diligently, but also find opportunities to read and read.
I do not require you to write any long essays, as long as you can read and write.
For hyphenation, you only need to be able to write simply and understand that there is no " Cao Zheng saw that Lin Chong valued him so much, so his immediate statement would definitely live up to Lin Chong's expectations.
After Lin Chong finished speaking to Cao Zheng, he then said to Shi Wengong, "Brother, don't worry about it.
It was the younger brother who never made it clear to the older brother, which led to the older brother's misunderstanding.
Brother, please relax.
Although the younger brother is stupid, he also knows how to make plans and act accordingly." , will not do such unmeasured things.
However, as the saying goes, "One person is short of wisdom, two people are wise."
If the elder brother discovers that the younger brother is doing something inappropriate in the future, he must dissuade him in time and correct him.
You and I, brothers, have nothing to say.
I hope that you will not do anything too much.
Heart" Lin Chong's words were sincere and heartfelt, because Lin Chong knew his own weight in his heart.
He knew that he was not a resourceful person who was not foolproof.
Using his brain was not his strong point.
He was just winning now.
Just know the historical process and understand the relevant key figures.
But as time goes by, with its own continuous interference, history will continue to deviate, and its own advantages will become smaller and smaller.
At that time, if you still want to achieve something, in addition to having someone to help you make suggestions and establish a foundation, you also need a confidant who you can trust to constantly remind you, so that you can stay awake as much as possible, make fewer mistakes, and not be proud. , and Shi Wengong is the candidate in Lin Chong's mind.
Since ancient times, those who achieve great things not only need powerful advisers to expand their territory, but also people who are loyal and have the courage to directly rebuke the mistakes of those in charge to protect the foundation.
Shi Wengong heard what Lin Chong said sincerely, and was very moved in his heart.
He said to Lin Chong, "Don't worry, brother, I know it.
You and I are sworn brothers.
Although the name of our sworn brotherhood is not as great as that of Liu, Guan, and Zhang Taoyuan, our friendship is not inferior at all."
They have nothing.
Although Brother Wei is a rough man, he still has some knowledge.

If Brother Wei sees anything wrong or wrong in the future, he will definitely let you know.
I am afraid that by then, brother will dislike me as a verbose brother. , Hahahahaha."
After Shi Wengong said this, he felt very happy and laughed loudly.
When Lin Chong and Cao Zheng heard what Shi Wengong said, they also smiled happily.
Lin Chong smiled for a while and said, "Brother, don't worry, I'm not afraid of my brother being verbose, I'm just afraid that my brother will keep something in his heart and not say it, hahahaha."
After the three of them laughed for a while, they slowly drank a few glasses of wine.
Lin Chong shared some of his general thoughts with the two of them.
The three of them had a discussion together, although they did not come up with a specific result in the end. came, but their thoughts were unified, and through this conversation, Lin Chong's core leadership position among the three was confirmed.
It was late at night, and the three of them had almost finished their discussion.
They were a little tired after traveling all day, so they all went back to their beds to rest.
Cao Zheng, the youngest, chose the place closest to the door, made the bed, put his parcel next to the pillow, pressed it with his hand, then came to the door and locked the door with the bolt.
Lin Chong and his wife also packed up at this time, took off their coats, and lay on the bed.
When Cao Zheng saw the two of them lying down, he walked to the lamp and blew out the oil lamp.
He returned to his bed in the dark and lay on the bed to rest.
After a while, they all fell asleep, snoring everywhere, and there was no talking all night.
At dawn the next day, the three of them got up one after another and got dressed.
Cao Zheng came to the door, unbolted the door, opened the door, stood at the door and called the waiter to bring some water for the three of them to wash up, and then ordered the waiter.
The second breakfast was brought to the room as usual.
The three of them had breakfast.
Lin Chong took the package Zhang Heng asked him to deliver to Zhang Shun, carried it on his back, and asked Cao Zheng to bring some silver coins, preparing the three of them to go to the river to find Zhang Shun.
Cao Zheng agreed and returned.
Go to your bedside to get the money from the package.
Cao Zheng came to the bedside, bent down and looked at the pillow, and was suddenly shocked.
He clearly remembered that before going to bed last night, he put the package near the pillow, but now the pillow was empty, and there was nothing left anywhere.
Package shadow.
He hurriedly picked up the pillow to see if it was under the pillow, but there was nothing under the pillow.
He turned over the bedding again, but there was still nothing.
Cao Zheng wondered if he had bumped into the ground while sleeping at night.
He quickly lay on the ground and looked under the bed.
It turned out that there was nothing under the bed.
It was as if the package had never existed at all, and even its shadow could not be found.
Cao Zheng stood up, feeling anxious.
He knew that the package for the three people was in his package.
If it disappeared, it would be no small matter.
He touched his head in circles with his hands while thinking about what went wrong. , how come the package disappeared.
At this time, Lin Chong and Shi Wengong also noticed Cao Zheng's strange behavior, and came over to ask him what happened.
Cao Zheng calmed down and said to the two of them, "It's strange.
I remember clearly that I put the package next to my pillow before going to bed last night, but now I can't find it for some reason."
After listening to Cao Zheng's words, the two of them all looked at Cao Zheng's bed.
Sure enough, the bed was empty except for the quilt and pillows that Cao Zheng had just turned over.
Lin Chong looked at the empty bed and recalled the scene when the three of them came in last night.
After thinking about it, Cao Zheng did come in with a package on his back, which meant that he did not leave it outside.
The package was missing from the house.
Lin Chong thought for a while and asked Cao Zhengdao, "Did you really remember to put the package next to your pillow before going to bed instead of putting it somewhere else in the house?"
Cao Zheng thought for a while and said to Lin Chong with an affirmative look on his face, "I remember clearly that after we talked last night, I first made the bed, then put the package next to the pillow, and pressed it with my hand, and then I just went to the room and locked the door with the bolt.

After seeing you two lying down in bed, I turned on the light and went to bed.
I will never forget it. " Lin Chong felt puzzled when he heard Cao Zheng's affirmation.
He said, "It's strange," and then started thinking about it.
After listening to Cao Zheng's words, Shi Wengong looked around again, and then asked Cao Zheng, "I saw it when you opened the door last night.
I just didn't know that when you opened the door in the morning, the door bolt was stuck on the door just like last night." , intact" Shi Wengong thought that if the door was unlocked when the door was opened in the morning, then a thief had entered after the three of them fell asleep last night, so he asked.
Cao Zheng recalled the scene when he opened the door in the morning, nodded and said, "Yes, when I opened the door this morning, the door bolt was stuck like last night.
I took off the door bolt first, and then opened the door.
The waiter in the shop is unmistakable.”
After listening to this, Shi Wengong looked at Lin Chong and Cao Zheng with confusion in his eyes and said, "That's strange.
The three of us have never gone out since we entered the room last night, and the door bolt is also inserted."
The package has not been opened.
This room is close to the innermost room on the second floor and has no windows.
Logically speaking, a thief should not have entered, but how did this package disappear?
" After listening to Shi Wengong's words, Cao Zheng punched hard and cursed, "Grandma, how come the good package is gone?
Damn it."
Lin Chong walked around the room twice and looked around.
Indeed, as Shi Wengong said, this room had no windows and only one door for entry and exit.
However, the door was locked last night.
When Cao Zheng opened it in the morning, it was It's weird, this really feels like a secret room mystery.
Lin Chong thought for a while and asked the two of them, "Is it possible that the thief used the incense to confuse us first, then came in and stole the package, and when he left, he used some tricks to lock the door bolt outside?"
After listening to Lin Chong's hypothesis, Shi Wengong slowly lowered his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "That's not right.
If we are fascinated by the incense, I will definitely feel dizzy, weak, etc. when I wake up in the morning.
Even if I use the amount No matter how young you are, you and I will definitely be able to detect it with our martial arts skills.
Besides, even if the incense was really used, we didn't notice it, but why did the thief only take the package belonging to brother Cao Zheng?
You know, although brother Cao Zheng had a lot of money in the package, it was only the three of us in Li Li's package.
Those I collected from everywhere, and in the packages of you and me, there are also the luggage we brought with us when we left Tokyo.
Although we spent some money on the way, we still have seven or eighty taels in total.
Since he has fascinated us, There is no reason to let go of the money and not take it."
After listening to Shi Wengong's analysis, Lin Chong and Cao Zheng both felt that it made sense.
Yes, the thief had already succeeded, so there was no reason to let them go, unless the thief believed that Cao Zhengli's money was all the three people's expenses. , so they didn’t go through their packages, but this didn’t make sense.
The three of them thought about it for a while, but they didn't understand what was going on.
However, they all believed that there must be a master thief who got into the house and stole it while the three of them were asleep.
After getting the package, only the thief knew how he stole it and why he didn't steal Lin Chong and Shi Wengong's
