The night was as cold as water, and the surroundings were dark and silent.
As if all the energy had been sucked out by a mirage, the whole room was lifeless.
What's even stranger is that Ma Chao deliberately didn't light a candle, as if he just wanted to enjoy the suffocating atmosphere.
At this time, he no longer sat on the ground.
Instead, he stood in front of the desk in the kneeling posture that he usually hated the most.
On the table, there is a Yuanrong crossbow that has been charged up.
Ma Chao, on the other hand, was meticulously wiping the Sutie sword in his hand.
The entire sword shone in the cold moonlight, becoming the only bright color in the room.
However, that bright color is worse than nothing.
Shan Shan stepped into this room very carefully, and his slightly happy face immediately turned solemn: If it weren't for the fact that this was the Longmen Inn in Xuzhou, and there had been no disturbance before, Shan Shan really thought something bad had happened to Ma Chao. .
Even so, when Qu Qun saw Ma Chao sitting in front of the desk, his heart couldn't help but sink a little.
At this time, Ma Chao didn't have a trace of murderous intent in his body, but coupled with the weird atmosphere around him and Ma Chao's cold movements, something had to happen.
From this, Shan Guo took a breath, stepped forward more cautiously, and said: "My lord, Feng Xiangong has already conquered Puyang City, and now Cao Cao has once again retreated to Zhen City.
The entire Yanzhou seems to have returned to the situation when Fengxian Gong swept through it.
Due to the current situation in Yanzhou, counties and counties in Yanzhou responded, and Zhang Miao of Chenliu County also took the initiative to send troops to attack Cao Ren."
"Lu Bu," Ma Chao said leisurely, with an indescribable emotion in his tone, which seemed to include sighs and worries: "He is indeed the sharpest sword of the Han Dynasty.
However, this sword has repeatedly bitten its master, so it cannot be used more often."
"Lord," Hearing this, he couldn't help but notice something, and said, "Didn't you say before that you wanted to end things with the Lu family?
Now that Fengxian Gong has captured Puyang, why are you?"
"Yes, I did say that.
So now it's time to use and guard against Lu Bu."
Ma Chao sighed, he was neither sad nor happy about Puyang's victory or defeat.
Because no matter what kind of ending it is, he doesn't want to hear it.
"Get behind me first.
I have other things to do later."
When he said this, Ma Chao's ears twitched and he couldn't help but change his words: "Take that candle and follow my orders."
Hearing the irresistibility in Ma Chao's voice, Shan Dan asked no more questions.
And just when he picked up the candle, his instinct as a shadow suddenly became alert, reminding him that there was a subtle murderous intention floating out from somewhere nearby.
That kind of murderous intention is not a specifically targeted murderous intention.
It is the natural shock that every warrior who has killed thousands of people on the battlefield has.
If the qi is nourished and restrained, the murderous aura will naturally disappear.
But if it is unintentional, it will be revealed without knowing it.
Therefore, Shan Shan also learned at this moment that the visitor had no ill intentions towards Ma Chao, otherwise, he would not have unintentionally spread the murderous aura on his body.
However, just when Shan Qu realized this, Ma Chao suddenly moved.
He put down the Su Tie sword in his hand, picked up the Yuan Rong crossbow on the table, and pointed it at the person outside the door who had no killing intention at all.
Just listen to the vibration of the bowstring, and an arrow pierces the darkness The visitor's reaction was very quick.
He dodged Ma Chao's hidden arrow in an instant, and then he hid the murderous aura in his body and quickly merged into the darkness, like an angry black panther: although he was temporarily forbearing, But it is the most dangerous.
Shan Shan couldn't see the man's reaction clearly, but Ma Chao, who was superb in martial arts, pursed his lips in praise of the man's actions: after the man ducked down to avoid it, he rolled quickly and continuously, and rolled to the Next to a thick dead tree, his body was bent, half kneeling on the ground with one leg.
This can not only effectively reduce the area hit by the arrow, but also keep the body in a stretched state ready for counterattack at any time.
Out of appreciation for the man's wonderful performance, Ma Chao did not continue shooting.
There was silence in the darkness.
At this time, the night here was not dense.
As long as the eyes adapted to the darkness, they could barely see the movement of a dozen steps around.
However, the night air at this time was extremely cold.
The visitor tried his best to hold his breath and quietly took off the bow and arrow on his back: he wanted to teach the person who dared to plot against him a lesson.

However, at this moment, "Swish", two more arrows were shot over, and they were pierced into the ground one step away from the big tree.
The visitor knew that this was a warning from the person in the house, telling him that he had taken control of his hiding place and should not act arbitrarily with his wishful thinking.
Then, a cold metallic voice came, making the visitor's puzzled face even more confused.
"I know you carry a bow and arrow with you.
As long as you shoot out this candle, we can renew our friendship."
At this time, the visitor raised his eyes and saw that a candle had been placed in front of Ma Chao.
The flickering candlelight illuminated Ma Chao's obscure face, as if he was waiting for something.
The visitor glanced at it first, then slowly walked out from behind the dead tree, and immediately threw away the bow and arrow in his hand: This was not his original intention.
Moreover, the person opposite was undoubtedly the one, and he had no reason to attack.
Opening his mouth, the person was about to speak, but suddenly he heard the sound of a bowstring from behind.
"No"
People came and shouted, but there was no way to save him.
All he could do was follow his body's reaction and dodge the arrow.
The reason why he exclaimed was because he suddenly realized that after he dodged, the target of the arrow would be Ma Chao in the room.
However, the strange thing is that Ma Chao didn't look moved at all, as if he already knew that the arrow would be shot.
I saw a cold light and a flash of brilliance.
The arrow was immediately split into two pieces in front of Ma Chao.
Picking up the arrow that fell in front of him, Ma Chao lit the candle again.
After seeing the white cloth tied to the arrow, he smiled and said, "Zilong really didn't have the intention to kill me.
This arrow was indeed marked by Xingba."
"White Arrow" "Don't blame foolish brother for testing this.
It's true that Zilong hasn't returned for more than a year."
After saying this, Ma Chao also stood up and walked towards the visitor.
His whole expression and tone were completely different from before.
It was as if the awe-inspiring and strange things before were all paving the way to celebrate the reunion at this time.
At this time, after being helped by Gan Ning and standing up completely with a wry smile, the visitor finally understood all of Ma Chao's plans: knowing that the visitor would not assassinate him, Ma Chao took the lead in shooting three arrows, hoping to force the visitor to take action. .
In fact, as long as he takes action, Gan Ning, who is also proficient in archery and has been hiding behind him, will take his life when he is setting up his bow to shoot an arrow.
At the same time, in order to apologize and compensate, Ma Chao also deliberately ordered Gan Ning to shoot at him at the same time.
Quan Zuo was using his own body to make amends.
Such a calculation is truly unheard of.
He firmly grasped all the psychology of human nature and did not allow a trace of hesitation or hesitation.
He could only use his most original intention to meet Ma Chao.
Whether it's a living person or a corpse For doing this, if the person who came was Zhao Yun, Ma Chao really couldn't be blamed.
After all, Ma Chao, who had not returned home for more than a year and visited late at night as punishment for Zhao Yun's disobedience to his original promise, was indeed not too much. but What if the visitor is not Zhao Yun as Ma Chao expected?
Although he knew that the news of his coming to Xuzhou would come later, it might have spread to all parts of Xuzhou.
And Zhao Yun also has enough reasons to see him But Life can only be life, not ordinary, full of magic and ingenuity.
Ma Chao's smiling face finally became distorted and embarrassing after he gradually saw the face of the visitor.
His whole face was twisted like a twist.
Finally, after walking in front of the visitor, Ma Chao could only apologize and say with a smile: "I don't know who the strong man is, and why he came to see me late at night.
Mr.
Ma Chao, there was a misunderstanding earlier.
I hope you can forgive me."
I'm sorry, I'm sorry If it weren't for his superb martial arts skills and quick reactions, maybe his fate would have been handed down here.
Fortunately, this man's words really gave Ma Chao some face.
"My benefactor has great virtues in saving my mother.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I dare not blame my benefactor."
"Ziyi" Ma Chao's expression suddenly changed, his eyes were like a fox seeing a fat chicken, and he said in surprise: "Donglai Taishi Ci, Taishi Ziyi" s: It’s really gone.
I have to save my manuscript carefully.
I can’t stop updating it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow:
