According to the map drawn by Hu Ban, Cao Peng went upstream along the Sui River without being noticed, bypassed Lutaigang at noon, and quietly sneaked into the mountains and forests from the side. Hu Ban's map was quite detailed.

It can be seen that he is indeed cooperating with me attentively.

But even so, Cao Peng and others still spent more than two hours before they found the mountain valley marked on the map.

It's past Unity hour, which is around four or five o'clock in the afternoon. As winter approaches, the time of day and night changes accordingly.

It gets dark earlier and earlier, and light gets later and later.

It's only five o'clock, and the sky is already starting to feel faint and dark...

But in this way, it just gave Cao Peng and the others an extra layer of protection.

"Afu, do you want to go in?"

Noriman is gearing up and eager to try.

He rushed back to Gaoyang Tingtingyi at dawn, and happened to bump into Cao Peng who was about to leave.

How could Noriman give up so easily when encountering such a thing? He pestered Cao Peng and insisted on participating in the action with Cao Peng.

Euphemistically called: Protect Cao Peng!

His reasons are very good.

"Although Ah Fu's skills are good, he is not as good as me. This time we are going deep into the heart of the criminals. If we don't have a capable protector, how can we avoid accidents? I am better at martial arts than him, taller than him, and physically better than him.

Strong! Moreover, I also grew up in the mountains when I was a child, so when it comes to walking on mountain roads, Hutou can't compare with me. So, for such a big thing, I must go, and if I don't go, I can't do it!"

Cao Peng knew that this guy just wanted to join in the fun.

He couldn't catch up with the fight last night, and he felt uncomfortable.

But I have to admit that what Noriman said is not unreasonable. After several months of hard training, Noriman's martial arts has reached a bottleneck. In other words, he needs actual combat! He needs constant confrontation and constant fighting.

Only then can we break through this bottleneck.

Dianman's qualifications are very good, even better than Dian Wei's.

He was born with supernatural powers, and unlike Dian Wei in the past, he had every meal but never had a meal. At least he had never been hungry since he was born.

This also makes Dianman's potential surpass that of Dianwei.

However, due to Dian Wei's success, Dian Man lacked many opportunities for experience.

Where did Dian Wei get his skills? They were gained through repeated battles and wandering on the line of life and death.

But Noriman has never experienced that kind of game between life and death.

Deng Ji believed that what Dianman said was very true and agreed with him to follow Cao Peng deep into the hinterland.

In fact, Cao Peng also knew what Deng Ji was thinking. He was not afraid that something would happen to him, so he found a strong person to protect him.

Even Deng Ji thought so, and Cao Peng couldn't shirk it.

"Well, you can follow me, but you must obey my instructions on the way. Third brother, after we set off, there will only be military discipline and no brotherhood. If you dare to act without authorization, don't blame me for not giving you face when the time comes.

Drive you back to Xudu."

"Of course, of course!"

Dianman returned to his hometown for a visit this time. His uncle Dianyi heard that he was going to Xuzhou and was a little uneasy.

Therefore, twenty warriors were assigned to Dianman to protect Dianman. Even though Dianwei was born as a commoner, he was not a big family with many brothers. But after all, he is now worshiped by the general of Tiger and Lieutenant, with a rank of two thousand dan.

How can a high official of the imperial court not have private guards at home?

Most of the private soldiers of the Dian family were the companions of Cao Cao and Lu Bu who fought with Dian Wei in the fierce battle at Puyang and were the first to die.

Later, he either retired from the army due to injury and was taken in by Dian Wei; or Cao Cao rewarded Dian Wei for his military exploits and assigned Dian Wei's personal followers. In Dian Wei's hometown, there were only sixty personal guards in total, and all of them were experienced.

A veteran who has fought many battles, it can be said that he has watched Dian Man grow up, so he naturally understands Dian Man's temper very well. He is a master that no one recognizes, and he dares to talk back to Dian Wei in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Cao Peng actually followed Cao Peng's advice. The eyes of the old soldiers when they looked at Cao Peng suddenly changed...

Dianman mobilized ten veterans who were good at infantry fighting, and they made up twenty people. Together with Cao Peng, Dianman, Xia Houlan and Wang Mai, there were twenty-four people in total. They left Gaoyang Tingting Station and squatted on the hill.

Deep in the jungle, Cao Peng squinted his eyes and looked into the mountain valley.

"No, there are three hundred thieves, and they are all fierce bandits who have experienced hundreds of battles.

If we just fight in like this, it will be of no use at all. Instead, we will alert the enemy and ruin the lives of Uncle Zhou and Hu Ban. Let's... wait!"

"How long will it take?"

"Wait until it's time to attack."

After Cao Peng finished speaking, he took a deep breath and placed the long knife across his knees.

"Everyone, take a rest and eat some solid food. We need to be energetic before we can kill the thieves... No one is allowed to move without my order."

"Here!"

Everyone lowered their voices and obeyed, then dispersed and everyone closed their eyes to rest.

Both the people from Tufu Mountain and the generals from Dianman looked relaxed and not at all nervous. For them, this kind of thing was like a common occurrence...especially those from Tufu Mountain.

Those good guys like us often do things like robbing families and homes. Waiting and ambushes like this happen more often. In fact, they are even more relaxed than Noriman's generals.

Some of them fell to the ground after eating solid food and rested with their heads resting on long knives.

Some looked leisurely, sitting together in groups of three or two, chatting softly.

On the contrary, Norimitsu seemed a little nervous!

He straightened his body, his throat couldn't help shaking, and his eyes were fierce...

"Third brother, don't be nervous."

"Nervous? Which of your eyes saw that I was nervous?"

Cao Peng sat cross-legged, opened his eyes and looked at Dianman, and suddenly smiled: "You are already sweating, and you still say you are not nervous?"

"I'm not sweating!"

Norian retorted, subconsciously raising his hand and wiping it on his head.

Not sweating?

He suddenly realized that Cao Peng was deceiving him!

"Afu, how can you be so treacherous?"

Cao Peng chuckled, then took a deep breath and said to Dianman: "Third brother, do it with me, take a deep breath... the abdomen will be inducted; exhale deeply, the abdomen will bulge. Repeat this, remember to count,

After about a few hundred times, you will be able to calm down. Come on, follow me, inhale, tighten your abdomen...exhale..."

His voice was soft and seemed to have a calming magic.

Noriman followed what Cao Peng said, inhaling, exhaling...

Reverse abdominal breathing can achieve the perfect integration of essence, energy and spirit in the shortest time.

Cao Peng closed his eyes and calmly adjusted his breathing. But after a while, he heard snoring, snoring... snoring around him.

When I opened my eyes, I saw Noriman sitting cross-legged, his head moving slightly, and he actually fell asleep!

This made Cao Peng feel dumbfounded...——

Time passed little by little, and the sky became darker and darker.

Standing in the dense forest, looking at the mountains and valleys from a bird's eye view, you can vaguely see the faint lights. I have to say that the place Lei Xu chose is really great! If it weren't for the map drawn by Hu Ban, it would be really difficult to find this place.

Everywhere. Narrowing his eyes, Cao Peng quietly leaned over, crouched down, and observed quietly. This kind of lurking and squatting thing had been done countless times in his previous life. Although it was boring and boring, Cao Peng felt it.

A kind of excitement that I have never experienced before. In the previous life, it was to catch people, but now, it is just to kill!

"Third brother!"

"Um?"

"Have you seen the big tree at the entrance of the valley?"

"I saw it."

"Hu Ban said that there is a cave hidden behind the tree, and there are about a dozen people in it. We will take action soon, and you have to deal with them as soon as possible... Are you sure?"

Noriman pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.

"As long as I can get closer, within ten steps, I can kill them in three breaths."

As he said that, he took out a small halberd from his pocket and said, "When it comes to throwing a halberd to kill people, my father may not be stronger than me."

Dian Wei has three unique features!

Double halberds, long swords and hand halberds.

It is recorded in the history books that during the Battle of Puyang, Lu Bu's pursuers were approaching, and Dian Wei was responsible for covering them. When the enemy pursued them to five steps, he opened his bows with his halberd left and right, killing several people in a row, scaring off the enemy soldiers, and then retreated calmly.

In other words, Dian Wei's hand halberd can hit the target with perfect accuracy.

Noriman is not a person who likes to brag.

Since he dares to say such things, he must have a reason.
