Liu Mang quickly walked towards the front hall, and before he got to the front hall, he saw a figure who couldn't walk back and forth in the front hall, looking extremely anxious.
"En?" Liu Mang was a little confused, seeing that this person's clothes didn't look like a scholar, but more like a martial artist. These days, Liu Mang became friends with scholars in Jingzhou, and he also coaxed a lot in Jingzhou. The scribes went to Yangzhou to fill the official positions in some counties and counties in Yangzhou, but there were still no warriors who came to his mansion of the king of Shu.
Liu Mang stepped forward suspiciously and shouted at the warrior, "This strong man!?"
Just as Liu Mang wanted to say hello to this person, the warrior over there immediately turned around and knelt down, "Caomin Deng Tian kowtows to His Highness the King of Shu."
"Deng Tian?" Liu Mang was taken aback when he saw this person. The last time Liu Mang saw Deng Tian, he went to his uncle Kuai Liang's house with Kuai Ran. That time Liu Mang saved the barbarians. The princess almost clashed with Deng Tian.
And Deng Tian is a member of the Huang family, and he was naturally at odds with Liu Mang, how could he appear in his mansion.
Although Liu Mang was puzzled, he still stepped forward to help Deng Tian, "Kainan please get up quickly, there is no need to be polite!"
"Thank you, Your Highness the King of Shu!" Although Deng Tian stood up, he was still so respectful to Liu Mang, and Liu Mang didn't try to correct him. "Brother Kainan, please sit down! Come and serve me two cups of good tea."
"Yes!" The maidservant responded and left.
"Brother Kainan, I don't know what's important to come to the mansion?" Liu Mang asked, this Deng Tian was recruited by Liu Mang before, and he asked Kuai Ran to accept Deng Tian's son just to solicit He was Deng Tian, but Deng Tian refused. I didn't expect this to come.
"Plop!" It's okay for Liu Mang not to ask. With this question, Deng Tian knelt down in front of Liu Mang, "His Royal Highness the King of Shu. His Royal Highness the King of Shu, the grass people beg His Highness the King of Shu to save the grass people."
"En?" Liu Mang looked at this Deng Tian and his reaction was that he couldn't figure out what was going on. What do you mean let me save you? "Get up, get up and talk"
"I beg His Royal Highness the King of Shu to save the grass people and their families." Deng Tian didn't get Liu Mang's answer, but he couldn't get up from the ground.
"Family?" Liu Wei's heart moved. Liu Wei admired Deng Tian very much at the beginning. Apart from Deng Tian's own ability, there is another one who is Deng Tian's son, Deng Fan, who is the future little Deng Ai. If this Deng Tian asked Liu Reck to save him, Liu Reck might be indifferent, but this little Deng Ai, "Brother Kainan, you, how did you come to me?" In this Jingzhou, Deng Tian's enemy should be the Cai family. Even if the Cai family wanted to deal with Deng Tian, they would have the protection of the Huang family. How could they beg Liu Mang's head.
"His Royal Highness, this, this is a long story!" Deng Tian looked at Liu Mang with a wry smile and told Liu Mang.
turn out to be. Deng Tian begged Liu Mang here because of Liu Mang, last time Deng Tian let Kuai Ran and his party go. He didn't know Liu Mang's identity at first, but Deng Tian only found out Liu Mang's identity later when he went out with Mr. Huang's family.
And it is precisely because of Liu Mang's status as the King of Shu that Deng Tian is now in this situation. Huang She, the son of the Huang family, was imprisoned by Liu Biao because of what Liu Mang did, although he was later released. Yes, but there was a lot of suffering in it, and the prison in Jingzhou was uncomfortable.
And Huang She's suffering towards Liu Mang's hatred was even more profound, and someone was the housekeeper of the Huang family last time, in order to please Huang She and also to revenge Deng Tian, he told Huang She the news that Deng Tian let Liu Mang go, This time it was a disaster for Chi Yu, and everyone who was related to Liu Mang hated Huang She.
Originally, one of the punishments given to Deng Tian by Huang Chen's royal brothers was to make Deng Tian's son apprentice to a craftsman, so that Deng Tian's son would be a lowly craftsman for the rest of his life, unable to read and write, so that he could enter the upper class. Deng Tian didn't care, because Deng Tian had He figured it out, what he wanted was for his son to live his whole life in peace, instead of becoming a family like the original Deng family, but because of the identity of the family and the wealth of the family, he was calculated by others and ended up in ruins.
But when Huang She knew about it, he really didn't want to give Deng Tian a living, and sent Deng Fan directly to the camp of dead men, which was the place where the Huang family trained dead men.
Deng Tian used to be the young master of the Deng family, how could he not know what is called a dead soldier's camp? Every big noble family has a deadly soldier's camp of this size. Such people have been cultivated since childhood, and they can fight for the master's family. sacrifice. On the original trajectory, even Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, was assassinated by the dead soldiers of the Xu family.
And one of the prerequisites for training such dead men is the inhumanity. In order to make these dead men truly loyal to the master, it is a high degree of brainwashing from the body and spirit, so that the master can use them well in the future. , so as not to leak the information of the master’s family, the dead man will have his tongue cut off so that he can’t speak, it’s a bit harsh, for fear that the dead man will be instigated by others, and he will be deaf even with his ears. This is not the early stage of the dead man What you have to do, later, the dead man doesn't just have to cut off his tongue and make his ears deaf.
Dead soldiers also need to compete with each other, just like cultivating poison. A family may buy dozens or even hundreds of young children. , maybe only three or four.
The others either died during training, or the survival of the fittest died at the hands of their companions.
Deng Tian wanted to resist, but his wife was still in the hands of the Huang family. Huang She just wanted to vent his anger. If it was someone else, he might abandon this son and have another one, but Deng Tian couldn't do it. After the family broke up, Deng Tian cherished his family even more. Asking for help, because of the relationship between the Cai family and the Kuai family, Deng Tian ran to Liu Mang's mansion and found Liu Mang when he was desperate.
"Little Deng Ai was arrested to become a dead soldier?" Liu Mang also stood up, Ma Dan, this Huang She is trying to make trouble, who is Deng Ai, that is a monster like Zhuge Liang in the late Three Kingdoms period, It would be great fun if he was trained to become a dead soldier.
Liu Wei is not afraid that this Huang She will train Xiao Deng Ai to death, if he dies, Liu Wei will regret it at most. But if this little Deng Ai was brainwashed by the Huang family. Another evil life. Liu Mang's great enemy is about to have one more person.
A Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan almost made Liu Mang run around, and if a little Deng Ai was added, this potential enemy in the future would be really irritable.
"Deng Ai?" Deng Tian was stunned for a moment, who is Deng Ai, his son is obviously named Deng Fan.
"This Huang She actually arrested brother Kenan's son, Deng Fan, to become a dead soldier, how unreasonable!" Liu Wei finally realized that the current little Deng Ai is still called Deng Fan, and has not changed his name.
"Brother Kainan, get up. If you can help me Liu Mang, it will be my duty!" Liu Mang was about to agree, but his shoulders were pulled by the people behind him.
"My lord, this matter still needs to be discussed." The person who grabbed Liu Mang's shoulder to stop Liu Mang was Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe who had been following behind Liu Mang. Jia Xu remained silent behind Liu Mang until Deng Tian begged Liu Mang Liu Mang wiped his mouth when he was about to agree.
"Discuss, what's there to discuss!" Liu Mang was about to agree, the Huang family was offended anyway, so let's just offend to the end, Jia Xu whispered next to him, "My lord is not Huang." family, and the Cai family!"
"The Cai family!" Only then did Liu Mang react. This Deng Tian is from the Deng family, and the former Nanyang Deng family. That is a big family, and the final family ruin was caused by the Cai family. Naturally, if the Cai family is destroyed, the Deng family will not leave any troubles under their hands. For Deng Tian, it was almost exterminated. It was the Huang family who reported it. This Deng Tian, if Liu Wei helped Deng Tian, he would potentially offend the Cai family. Liu Wei didn't care about it before, but now Liu Wei and the Cai family have an ally relationship.
"His Royal Highness, King Shu, please, please save my son, please!" Deng Tian next to him knelt down again, and kowtowed violently towards Liu Mang. But the bluestone bricks used, all of a sudden, blood stains appeared on Deng Tian's forehead.
"Brother Kainan, Brother Kainan, get up first, let's have a long-term plan!" Liu Reck felt a little uncomfortable seeing Deng Tian's appearance, but Liu Reck also knew that Liu Reck could not offend the Cai family now, after all, the Cai family is now But help Liu Mang everywhere.
"My lord, don't forget Cai Desi's banquet a few days ago." Jia Xu is not impersonal, but for Jia Xu, as a counselor, he naturally wants to exchange the least cost for the greatest benefit for the lord.
This Deng Tian is just a mere martial artist. If his Deng family is still there, it can be used, but the Deng family has long since disappeared, and the Cai family is what Liu Mang needs to make friends with now. For such a reckless man And it's not worth it to offend the Cai family.
"A long-term plan, a long-term plan?!" Deng Tian shook his head with a wry smile, blood was all over his forehead, so he could still make a long-term plan. He could already hear the kind of perfunctory delay from Liu Mang's words. His son Deng Fan had already If he was captured, if he didn't rescue him, he would really be doomed.
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu, I don't want to embarrass His Highness the King of Shu, so I will pretend that the Cao Min has never been here before, and I will leave!" Deng Tian smiled wryly. Will offend the Cai family for a martial artist, let alone add a Huang family.
Looking at Deng Tian's expressionless eyes, Liu Mang was very embarrassed.
"My lord, do you remember Madam Cai's words!" Jia Xu was still on the sidelines to repel Liu Mang's impulse.
"I!"
Over there, Deng Tian walked further and further away, staggering. His figure was extremely gloomy.
Deng Tian, Deng Fan, Deng Ai! Cai family, Huang family. Liu Mang was chewing these words in his mouth.
The only benefits that Deng Tian can bring to Liu Mang are his own talent and his son who is destined to shine in the future, but the Cai family can give Liu Mang ready-made benefits. Liu Mang closed his eyes and thought for a while.
"Wait a minute!" Liu Mang suddenly stopped Deng Tian who was about to leave.
"My lord, think twice, the Cai family, this." Jia Xu didn't understand his lord, it was obvious the truth before him, the Cai family could give a lot of benefits, but what could this Deng Tian have
"Wenhe, isn't Baima Congyi lacking a lieutenant general? This person is enough!" Liu Mang said to Jia Xu with a smile.
"The deputy general of Baima Congyi?" Jia Xu was helpless, and Jia Xu also admired Deng Tian's talent, whether it was dealing with matters or other things, he did a very good job, otherwise he would not be in the Huang family. To the position of head of private soldiers. But to offend the Cai family for such a person. This is probably too worthless.
one person? If only Deng Tian was alone. Liu Mang will never help, even if Liu Mang has this heart, but under the trend of interests, Liu Mang is no longer the original him, and helping Deng Tian is not only Deng Tian, but also Deng Tian's treasure His son Deng Fan is also the future little Deng Ai. One person is not enough for Liu Mang to make a move, but two people are enough.
What's more, it really doesn't necessarily offend the Cai family.
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu?" Deng Tian looked at Liu Mang chasing him out. Although Liu Mang didn't help him, Deng Tian did not lose his etiquette and clasped his fists at Liu Mang.
"Brother Kainan. I, Liu Mang and Liu Hanyang, helped you with your favor!" Liu Mang said to Deng Tian.
"What?" Happiness came so suddenly, Deng Tian was stunned and couldn't believe it, "His Royal Highness, can you say it again?"
"My lord said that your son and his family are saved!" Jia Xu who was next to him also chased him out, and said to Deng Tian angrily.
"His Royal Highness Shu, this, this, this!" Deng Tian didn't even know what to say. To be honest, he and Liu Mang met by chance. They didn't have any old friends at all. Coming here is just a matter of luck. Because he really had nowhere to go, but he didn't expect Liu Mang to chase him out and try to help him.
"Brother Kainan. I did help, but I have to explain one thing to Brother Kainan, that is, after helping, Brother Kenan will no longer be able to appear in Jingzhou, and he will have to change his name and surname! Kenan Brother should also know my difficulties." Liu Mang has a prerequisite for helping Deng Tian, that is, Deng Tian can no longer appear in Jingzhou, otherwise, helping Deng Tian is tantamount to offending the Cai family, and going to Deng Tian still has to be done. Change the name and surname without letting the Cai family know.
"It's natural!" Deng Tian nodded. It is already a deep affection for someone to help him. Naturally, this matter is not a problem. Deng Tian also knows the current relationship between the Cai family and Liu Mang's Yangzhou.
"His Royal Highness, I can change my name and surname, but my son?" Deng Tian was a little embarrassed, because he was the only bloodline in their Deng family, and Deng Fan was his only son. Although the Deng family died, but But Deng Tian didn't want the Deng family to have no descendants. The ancients attached great importance to changing the name and surname, after all, it represented the inheritance of incense.
"Brother Kainan's son doesn't need to change his surname, but he has to change his name!" Liu Wei's heart moved. In fact, as long as Deng Tian changed his name, no one would pay attention to a child like Deng Fan, but Liu Wei still wanted to change his name. Ask Deng Tian to change his name.
"Thank you, His Royal Highness Shu!" The surname is an important thing, but the surname represents the ancestral home.
"His Royal Highness, I don't know what should be changed to this name?" Deng Tian threw the question to Liu Mang.
"Huh?" Liu Mang was stunned for a moment, and then replied in a strange way, "Let's call him Ai."
"Ai? Deng Ai?" Deng Tian read the name. Deng Tian's son's name was Fan. When Deng Tian was traveling in Yingchuan, he read two sentences in the inscription of the late Taiqiu Chang Chen Shi, "Writing is Shifan, Behavior is ", I am pleased to admire, so I named my son.
And this word Ai? What can it represent
"Ai, the herb of medicine, has the meaning of hanging the pot to help the world. The world of this big man is already sick and weak. I hope that Brother Kenan's son can learn something in the future and heal the disease and save the common people in this troubled world." Liu Mang came right away.
"Hanging the pot to help the world! Save the world?" Deng Tian didn't dare to boast about this version of Haikou. He only hoped that his son could live his life in peace, but His Royal Highness King Shu said so, and Deng Tian was not good either. Refused.
Deng Ai, Deng Ai! Liu Mang read it twice more, and it's fluent. What is it called Deng Fan? It's like a foodie, waiting for food? Rice bucket.
"Brother Kainan, is there a place for Brother Kainan to leave Jingzhou?" Liu Mang's fox tail was about to be exposed.
"Leave Jingzhou?" Deng Tian thought for a while and shook his head. Although the world is big, there is really no room for Deng Tian, and Deng Tian doesn't know where to go. But Deng Tian is smart, since Liu Mang has made the first move, there will naturally be arrangements for him, "Everything is only according to the orders of His Royal Highness the King of Shu!"
Sure enough, Liu Mang nodded, "If brother Kenan has nowhere to go, let's go to Yangzhou! I happen to be short of a lieutenant general in the White Horse Army in Yangzhou, so I hope brother Kenan can condescend."
"White Horse Congyi?" Deng Tian was also surprised by Liu Mang's words. You must know that Deng Tian has really heard of the reputation of this White Horse Congyi. The original Baima Congyi was in Youzhou on the northern border After earning his reputation, he can be said to be one of the elites in the world. After Gongsun Zan's death, the White Horse Congyi was disbanded. When it was in Yangzhou's hands, Deng Tian also believed that the White Horse Congyi would not be worse than before. After all, Liu Mang's father-in-law Lu Buke is also a cavalry warrior, how could he not know how to command the cavalry, and now Shu Wang Liu Mang actually asked him to go to this army to serve as the lieutenant general, this, this must think highly of Deng Tian, right? Originally, Deng Tian thought that it would be good for Liu Mang to give him Deng Tian as a little guard leader at most, and Deng Tian was also ready to die for Liu Mang, but he didn't expect that he would be the lieutenant general of the first army.
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu, how can this Deng Tian be favored by His Royal Highness the King of Shu!" Deng Tian was about to refuse.
"I said you can do it, you can do it, brother Kenan, why bother to refuse." Liu Mang said to Deng Tian with a smile, this Deng Tian is still very good, and his martial arts is not bad, otherwise he wouldn't let that barbarian man be inferior One point died, and Deng Tian was also an educated person. Soldiers and horses cannot be used like gods. He is also a person who understands mercenaries. Such a person can still be a lieutenant.
"In this way, Deng Tian can only sell this stinky skin to His Highness the King of Shu." Deng Tian looked at Liu Mang and said gratefully for his generous gift. This is to help him save his family and give him a job. Just be a general, can you dare to do this.
"You still call him His Highness the King of Shu?" Liu Mang said while looking at Deng Tian with a smile.
"Deng Tian, my subordinate, has met the lord. I am willing to sacrifice my body for the lord." Deng Tian knelt down again, this time, Deng Tian was willing.
"Come and call me Guan Hai and Zhou Cangyu!" Since Liu Mang wanted to help Deng Tian, he naturally needed to dispatch troops, and Liu Mang had several strong generals in his hands.
"yes!"
Soon Guan Hai and Zhou Cang were summoned, and Liu Mang got the map of all the Huang family's manors from Jia Xu. In addition, Deng Tian, the former Huang family, was there, so he naturally pointed out the Huang family. Guan Hai's injury is no longer a serious problem at the place where the dead soldiers are trained. Of course, he can't compete with the martial artist for the time being, but how can there be a martial artist in the Huang's mansion? Even if there is, there is Zhou Cang Now, Deng Tian also wants to participate, and the three of them will also drink hatred when they come to practice martial arts.
"Go!" Liu Mang waved his hand, he could only help Deng Tian as soon as possible, otherwise little Deng Aike would be in danger. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!
ps: Some brothers said that Jingzhou is too slow, okay! I speeded up, and I will write in a straightforward manner later, so I won’t write about the detailed war, and I will try my best to pass this paragraph. And a special thanks to Brother Bingzi Yefengzui, and the local tyrant for his indifferent tip.
