Chapter 12 The Three Treasures

It was already the morning of the next day when Li Haochen woke up. Wei Zheng did not come to his room. There was a breakfast sent by soldiers to Li Haochen. Li Haochen could already go to the ground after resting for a day, but it was still a bit unnatural to walk. Thanks to his body being quite strong, otherwise such a serious injury would not be cured for a while.

After Li Haochen finished his meal, he left the military camp. Since the prince asked him to rest for a while, he did not rush to report to the military headquarters, but turned to Chang'an Street and wandered around. Li Haochen had no purpose, but just didn't want to lie on the bed. He walked on the streets of Chang'an, thinking about what happened in the past few days after his rebirth, and was also very moved. In just a few days, he had gone from an unwilling big-headed soldier to a senior general of the fourth rank of the Tang Dynasty. All this was like a dream for Li Haochen.

Li Haochen sighed as he walked, and suddenly a man knelt down at his feet and said, "My benefactor is here, I kowtow to you!"

Li Haochen was shocked when he heard this. He looked carefully at the old man kneeling on the ground. He was knocked down by King Wei Li Tai a few days ago. Before Li Tai beat him with a horse whip, Li Haochen quickly helped the old man up, but he was injured behind him. He bent his waist slightly and felt as painful as if he was heartbroken. Li Haochen gritted his teeth and helped the old man up, and gasped and said, "I'm asking him up quickly, it's a simple task. The old man must not do this, and it will ruin the younger generation!" Li Haochen still has modern thinking in his bones. How could he let someone who can be his grandfather kneel down to him?

So I pulled up the old man and said casually that what he did was just something a normal person should do, and there is no need to thank him.

The old man looked at Li Haochen's painful expression when he helped him, and seemed to know something, and he seemed to have made up his mind and said, "My benefactor has injuries on his back! Don't move around, so as not to leave hidden illnesses." After saying that, the old man paused and said, "Little benefactor, you are a general! I have been looking for you for several days, but you have never appeared again. It may be because of military affairs, or it may be because the old man has touched God with sincerity, so that I have the opportunity to see my benefactor again!"

Li Haochen was very curious when he heard this. He didn't know what the old man was doing for him. Maybe life was difficult, and Li Haochen could understand it. Thinking that he could help him, he said to the old man: "My name is Li Haochen. You can just call me Haochen. What are you doing for me? Is there anything wrong? Tell me, let me see if I can help you!"

When the old man listened to Li Haochen's words, he became more determined in his heart. He did not return to Li Haochen's words, but asked again: "Well... Haochen, tell me first, are you a general?" The old man also wanted to call him benefactor, but when he thought about Li Haochen's words just now, he was embarrassed to disobey Li Haochen, so he changed his words to Haochen.

Li Haochen was also very surprised when he heard this. He thought that the old man might be able to help with the difficulties. He thought to himself, for nothing, since he met this old man, he was destined to be together. If he could, just help him. Although Li Haochen is not a person with noble character, he still has a kind heart.

Thinking of this, Li Haochen said, "Old man, I am the general, I am the general Zhongwu of the Tang Dynasty, and the commander of the left guard of the crown prince's Eastern Palace! Okay, tell me what difficulties do you have!"

The old man nodded and said, "Haochen, if you believe in the old man, just follow me!" He said that, regardless of Li Haochen's reaction, he walked straight forward.

Li Haochen thought that the old man might have something unspeakable, so he followed him and saw what happened to the old man.

Li Haochen followed the old man out of Chang'an City. Not far from Chang'an City, he saw endless desolation. At this time, the old man turned around and told Li Haochen that there was a maze in front of him, so that Li Haochen followed him closely. Li Haochen had doubts about the old man's identity for the first time. He knew the maze and formations. For example, the famous Zhuge Liang's Eight Formation Map during the Three Kingdoms period, which was a maze composed of stones. Ordinary people did not know the way out when they entered, so it was difficult for them to get out again.

But there was a desolate place in front of me. Li Haochen didn't know what the old man was talking about. But he followed the old man's footsteps. The old man's pace was very strange as if he was spinning around in the same place. After about a quarter of an hour, the old man turned around and said to Li Haochen: "Here!"

Although Li Haochen had thousands of questions on the way, he didn't ask. He chose to trust the old man, but at this moment, he had to speak. He looked at the old man and asked, "Where is the old man here? What are you going to do when you bring me here? And how could you know the maze? Who are you?"

The old man did not answer Li Haochen's series of questions, but said: "Haochen, go and pour incense on my ancestors!"

Li Haochen was a little unhappy when he heard this. After all, what does your ancestors have to do with me? But looking at the old man and thinking that the dead are the most important, Li Haochen did not refuse. At this time, he discovered that there was a white marble stele ten feet tall in front of him, and there was an eight feet tall in the back. Needless to say, Li Haochen also knew that this was two tombstones, but who made such a big deal made Li Haochen curious, but what is certain is that the owner of the tomb must be extraordinary. He walked up to him and took a closer look, but he was startled Li Haochen because the two tombstones said:

"The Tomb of Lu Bu, the Marquis of Wen of the Great Han Dynasty"

"The tomb of Gao Shun, the general of the Han Dynasty,"

Li Haochen, who is familiar with historical classics, naturally knows who Lu Bu and Gao Shun are.

In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, when the heroes competed for hegemony, the first fierce general was holding a square sky painting halberd and the red rabbit under his feet was known as the "flying general". At that time, some people called him the red rabbit among the horses. Lu Bu regarded himself as a hero in the world as nothing. It is said that he had the courage of a king, but unfortunately he was defeated by Cao Cao.

Gao Shun Lu Bu's general was innocent and majestic, and was not easy to drink. He led 700 personal soldiers and claimed to be trapped in the camp and would win every battle. He once defeated Cao Cao's general Xiahou Dun, and later Liu Bei, the Emperor Zhaolie of Shu Han. Later, Lu Bu was defeated and killed by Lu Bu with Cao Cao.

It is said that Cao Cao buried the two of them later, but he didn't expect that the cemetery of theirs was here. Li Haochen remembered that even in the era when he lived, he had never heard of any discovery of the tombs of Lu Bu and Gao Shun.

Both of them were heroes in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, so Li Haochen naturally had great respect in his heart. According to what the old man said, he respectfully lit a stick of incense on the two of them and knelt down and said, "General Li Haochen, the Zhongwu General of the Tang Dynasty, paid homage to Mr. Lu, General Gao." After saying that, he kowtowed respectfully.

Then he stood up and clasped his fists at the old man, and said, "It turns out that the old man is a descendant of Wen Hou, Haochen is rude!"

The old man listened to Li Haochen's words and briefly told Li Haochen that Cao Cao killed the two men and was grateful that they were heroes of the times, so he ordered a grand funeral and asked his descendants to guard the graves. He also known as Xuanshi set up a maze, which saved the two tombs from the war. However, Li Haochen had figured out the maze, but it was just a few tricks to hide the underground hole. They just turned around in circles, but in fact they were walking along the steps to approach the underground passage. Although Li Haochen could see clearly, he could not do it, which shows how clever the people back then were.

The old man briefly told Li Haochen about the origin of the cemetery, and told Li Haochen to wait for a moment and then he would come. After a while, the old man took out a box of 100 feet and asked Li Haochen to open it himself.

Li Haochen opened the box and saw a long halberd of ten feet. The painting rod Fangtian seemed to have the spirit of the Eight Desolate Fire Dragons, and it felt like it was burning when touched. The sharp and fierce murderous aura at the top of the painting halberd was revealed. Looking at the appearance of this weapon, Li Haochen also knew that this must be the Fangtian Painted Salvation of Lu Wenhou. Then, under the long halberd were two books, "The Unparalleled Salvation Method" and "The Art of War". After Li Haochen looked at "The Art of War", he was more excited than seeing the first two items. This is Gao Shun's training method for the camp, which has been lost for a long time. With him, Li Haochen is confident that he can quickly form a camp, which is what he needs most at the moment. However, a gentleman does not seize the beauty of others.

After seeing it, Li Haochen put them all in the box and returned it to the old man.

Seeing this, the old man said, "Does the general look down on these things?"

Li Haochen shook his head quickly and said, "I'm joking. If one of these divine objects is already a heaven-defying existence, let alone three! But a gentleman does not take away the love of others. These three treasures are the relics of your ancestors. How can I take them for myself!"

The old man laughed and said, "How bad is the general's words! The reason why treasures are called treasures is because in the hands of heroes, such as me, having such treasures will only make the treasures dust! Today I will give these three treasures to the general, hoping that the general can restore them to their former glory!"
