Chapter 115 Liu Bei's Choice
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were called up from the bed by Liu Bei.
Zhang Fei looked at the heavy-faced Liu Bei, and questioned:
"Brother, what's the matter? Could it be that the emperor asked you to go to the palace again?"
Liu Bei shook his head, and said, "I just met a man, one of Gao Shun's soldiers."
"And then?" Zhang Fei was a little puzzled.
"He asked me for help. Gao Shun was slandered in the bush today and has been sent to prison. He wants me to help Gao Shun, rescue Gao Shun from prison, and restore Gao Shun's innocence." Liu Bei said lightly. .
"Gao Shun? Is it Gao Shun who is trapped in the camp?"
"It is this person." Liu Bei said: "This person is quite capable, and he is also good at managing soldiers and fighting wars, but I don't know who he provoked in the city, either he was assassinated or he was slandered."
"Does the elder brother want to help him?" Guan Yu said.
"I don't know either." Liu Bei shook his head:
"In the past, I would never have had the chance to help, but now my status is different from the past.
If I want to help, I can go to the emperor to persuade a few words, and things will be much easier.
It's just that I'm hesitating whether Gaoshun is worth my investment. "
From when Zhang Cai left, until now, Liu Bei has been thinking about this question.
Is Gao Shun worth his investment?
In terms of ability, this person's ability is not bad, and he has caught the eyes of the three of them. Not to mention keeping him together, even if he sells his friendship and builds a good relationship, he can play a huge role in the future.
But Liu Bei was worried about other issues, and Gao Shun was still Cao Cao's general.
As for the matter of Gao Shun's imprisonment, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he was framed. Would a general of the imperial court get angry and kill someone because of a dispute over the price of the pawn and the shopkeeper?
Naturally not, so Gao Shun should be innocent. In this case, as long as Cao Cao wanted to save him, he would be able to save him, even easier than Liu Bei.
If I go forward to rescue Gao Shun, will I hate Cao Cao?This is what Liu Bei is worried about.
Secondly, Liu Bei has been calculating, who are the forces that are enemies of Gao Shun?To assassinate a general in the city and falsely imprison him is not an ordinary act.
Rescuing Gao Shun by himself will naturally ruin their good deed, and it's hard to say whether he will be hated or not.
Seeing that Liu Bei was still hesitating, Zhang Fei said anxiously:
"What's there to think about? Brother, Gao Shun, my second brother and I also fought against him. Even though we had the upper hand, we were still defeated by him.
That person is a general, even if there is no such thing this time, I have thought about making friends with him. "
"Done!"
Liu Bei thought again and again, but still slapped his thigh with a ruthless expression:
"Looking forward and backward, we will never achieve great things! It's getting late now, tomorrow, tomorrow, I will go to the palace to see His Majesty."
…………
That night Gao Shun kept on holding on, not daring to fall asleep.
Even though he was tired, tired, sleepy and tired, he still held his energy, leaned against the corner of the wall, and looked around with a little bit of faint light.
He didn't wake up the three people next door. The three of them must be much safer than himself if they stayed together.
Not to mention that the purpose of the black hands behind the scenes is themselves, so they should not make extra troubles and attack Tan Liu and the others.
Gao Shun thought in his heart, but the drowsiness became more and more serious, flooding into his mind in bursts, and his eyelids trembled involuntarily.
After all, he was too tired. There were too many things that happened during the day today. He went to solve the case, fought with black people, and spent his time thinking about his current situation. Whether it was mentally or physically, he was exhausted to a certain extent.
It was three minutes into the night now, and I couldn't hold on with willpower alone. I tilted my body and fell asleep vaguely.
I don't know how long he slept, but Gao Shun felt the cold wind blowing over his body, and couldn't help shivering.
Waking up trembling and violently, Gao Shun found himself curled up on the straw bed instead of half lying down.
Just as he was about to sit up, he heard a slight sound.
It's like... someone lowered the sound of walking!
Gao Shun seemed to be afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he eased his breathing, and listened hard with his ears up.
That's right, someone is walking, and it's getting closer and closer.
Someone is coming to assassinate him!Gao Shun suddenly understood.
He didn't startle the snake, but slowly changed his posture so that he could act better and quickly.
There was another slight noise, and Gao Shun reckoned it was probably the sound of a lock being unlocked.
There was a "crash", so small that it was almost inaudible, but Gao Shun still heard it.
Here it is, now!
Hearing the sound of footsteps getting closer, Gao Shun exerted all his strength and rushed towards the direction where the sound came from.
Because he had seen a figure from the corner of his eye just now, and he didn't see a scene similar to the reflection of metal, which is why he had the confidence to rush over.
Otherwise, in case the figure was holding a knife in his hand, he just rushed over and hit the knife directly.
Gao Shun's stature was not considered short, and with the fact that he had been accumulating strength, this pounce actually covered a distance of several meters, throwing the figure to the ground.
At this time, when the distance was relatively close, Gao Shun realized that the figure had one hand in his bosom, which seemed to be holding a dagger or other weapon.
Fortunately, Gao Shun reacted quickly and was more decisive. Otherwise, when this man took out the weapon, Gao Shun would have staged a good show of snatching the blade with his bare hands.
The man was thrown to the ground by Gao Shun, and he was also shocked. Just as he was about to struggle, he was hit on the face by a huge fist. He was instantly dizzy and could only push Gao Shun by instinct. .
Gao Shun naturally understood the principle of beating a dog in the water. Taking advantage of his innocence to kill him, he punched him indiscriminately, until he passed out until he lost consciousness.
This was not over yet, before Gao Shun could breathe a sigh of relief, another figure rushed into his cell.
The difference from the first figure is that this person is holding a shining long knife in his hand!
When it was more urgent, Gao Shun became calmer, and directly pulled out the short knife in front of the chest of the unconscious man with his backhand, and put it across his chest, as if to block.
The black shadow slashed at Gao Shun's short knife, which made Gao Shun go numb, rolled over and took a few steps back.
At this time, although the two had only fought for a while, the sound of the weapon hitting also woke up the others.
Especially Tan Liusan next door, they were light sleepers, if Gao Shun hadn't told them to have a good rest, they would probably have to take turns to watch the night.
Just now the sound of Gao Shun hitting the first black shadow was relatively quiet, no one was awakened, but now the prisoners in several cells around Gao Shun were all awakened.
"General! What's wrong!"
Tan Liu burst into a yell, and shouted again: "Come here, come quickly, someone is assassinated!"
It's just that no matter how much he shouted, no daytime jailer came to check.
