At the beginning, his wife came to him, and he became rich by selling kidney treasures.

"Husband, it was he who planned to kidnap me. Not only did he kidnap me, he also wanted me to say a few good words for him in front of you." Xu Yating snuggled in Ren Hao's arms and pointed at Cao De and said.

"That's right." Cao De nodded with a smile.

Ren Hao saw that Cao De had a round, fat face and a sinister look, and with his narrow eyes and long beard, he looked like a typical treacherous person.

"You are such a brave gangster."

"Not only did you kidnap my wife, but you also dared to ask my wife to speak well of you in front of the master?"

"Aren't you afraid that I will wipe out your entire clan? And then dig up your ancestral grave." Ren Hao asked with his eyes wide open.

Haha.

Cao De laughed fearlessly: "If Master can wipe out my nine clans and dig up my ancestral graves to relieve the hatred in his heart, then it's fine."

"But, from now on, you will lose a retainer who is as fierce as a tiger, and a teacher who can help you plan your strategies." Cao De then pointed at Wu Chu beside him.

This guy is so confident because he has grasped my eagerness to recruit talented people.

If there wasn't that tough guy by his side, he would look like a bad villain and would be killed.

"May I ask your name, sir?" Ren Hao asked.

"My name is Cao De. I used to be a strategist under the God of War outside the pass." Cao De gave his name.

Ren Hao was shocked!!!

Has the trajectory of history begun to follow me? Just as Li Shiji left, the three brothers Liu, Chen and Zhang came, and now Cao De has come?

If Liu, Chen and Zhang were the pillars of the late Han Dynasty, then Cao De was the treacherous prime minister during the chaotic times of the Wei Dynasty.

According to the normal historical trajectory, Cao De was a strategist who surrendered to the ancient Wei Dynasty.

After he arrived in the ancient Wei Dynasty, his life seemed to be on a roll, from a surrendered man to the most powerful official in the ancient Wei Dynasty. He could enter the palace only with a sword and shoes, did not have to bow when entering the court, and did not have to use his name when praising or bowing.

But now he is not staying in Gu Wei, but running back instead?

He also wants to become his disciple.

"Cao De, since you were exiled to the God of War Pass, why did you come back for no reason?"

"Don't you know that the laws of ancient China are strict? Anyone who escapes or surrenders at the border will be executed." Ren Hao stared at Cao De and questioned.

"Of course we know that the laws of ancient China are strict. We have fought on the battlefield to serve Your Majesty, but our bodies and hair are given by our parents, and we must cherish our lives." Cao De said to Ren Hao in a serious tone.

This well-reasoned look almost made Ren Hao laugh out loud.

What a perfect combination of loyalty and filial piety.

"Then let me ask you, we have never met before and have no grudges against each other, why did you destroy my business and kidnap my wife?" Ren Hao asked.

"I have no grudge against the master, but you have a grudge against them. They have found us, and if we don't do anything, we will lose our lives."

"As for why we kidnapped the lady, it was because we saw that there were evil people hiding in the dark at the time, so we had no choice but to kidnap her in order to protect her." Cao De lied half-truthfully.

"Then who ordered you?" Ren Hao asked.

"I dare not say it, I dare not say it." Cao De shook his head repeatedly.

Zhang Kuai, who was standing next to him, raised his axe and glared at him, "Humph, if you don't speak up now, you sinister person, aren't you afraid that the axe in my hand will split you in half?"

"Although the warrior's axe is sharp, my brother's double hammers are not for decoration either." Cao De laughed and did not take Zhang Kuai seriously.

When Zhang Kuai saw Cao De's arrogant look, he was so angry that his forehead was flushed with blood.

Just when he was about to rush forward and fight Wu Chu for another 300 rounds to see who was better, he was stopped by Ren Hao who was standing beside him: "Zhang Kuai, don't mess around."

"Master, this sinister man is so arrogant and hateful. I can't swallow this humiliation." Zhang Kuai glared at Cao De and said.

"Then you can swallow it now." Ren Hao took off the wine bag from his waist and threw it to Zhang Kuai beside him.

Whatever, whatever.

Zhang Kuai took the wine bag and drank it.

Seeing that Zhang Kuai was calm, Ren Hao looked at Cao De and said, "Mr. Cao, what should I do to get you to tell me the person behind the scenes?"

"You divide the silver among my brothers, and accept me and Wu Chu as your disciples. From now on, you are my lord, and I will tell you." Cao De said bluntly.

Before Ren Hao could agree, Zhang Kuai, who was drinking heavily, said: "You wicked man, you still want to be my master's disciple, why don't you take a piss and look at your ugly face."

"Sir, this man is definitely not a good person and you can't trust him." Zhang Kuai turned his head and looked at Ren Hao.

Chen Fei next to him also said: "Master, what my third brother said is absolutely right. This person is definitely not a good person and should not be accepted as a disciple."

"You don't need to say more. I have made up my mind." Ren Hao waved his hand to stop the two from talking, and then agreed to Cao De's request to join his sect.

At this time, Chen Fei and Zhang Kuai could only sigh.

Afterwards, Ren Hao ordered people to open all the boxes.

When all five boxes were opened, revealing a shiny white light, everyone except Ren Hao and Xu Yating swallowed their saliva.

It’s not that they haven’t seen silver ingots before, but they have never seen so many of them.

"Damn it, this...this much silver, it should be enough for me to drink...how much wine I want to drink."

Zhang Kuai stared at the shiny silver in the box with a dazed look.

Chen Fei next to him patted Zhang Kuai's head helplessly, reminding him not to lose his composure.

After all, the out-of-control look he showed just now was not what a retainer should look like.

"Take all this silver."

"I always keep my word." Ren Hao waved his hand, appearing quite happy.

"This……"

The gang of bandits around Cao De didn't rush forward to fight for it. Instead, they just looked at Cao De and Wu Chu with shining eyes and rubbing their hands.

Wu Chu had not made up his mind yet, but looked at Cao De.

"Since the lord has already spoken, you can take it all." Cao De stood in place and waved his hand, and the bandits swarmed over to snatch the silver.

After the bandits had taken all the silver, Cao De said to them, "This silver is enough for you to live on for the rest of your lives. You should stop doing this kind of banditry."

"Sir, you...you are planning to abandon your brothers." The gangsters were shocked. They didn't expect that this was a letter of disbandment.

"People with different ideals cannot work together. You will have no future following me. It is better for you to take the money and go home to marry, have children, and live a good life." Cao De said tactfully to everyone.

The bandits panicked. They threw the silver on the ground and begged, "Sir, we would rather not have the silver, but we still want to follow you."

"Sir, please let the lord accept us as well." The bandits knelt on the ground one after another.

Cao De didn't say anything, but just looked at Wu Chu beside him.

Wu Chu also looked embarrassed at this time.

Although it is true that they are bandits at this time, it cannot be denied that they are brothers who have shared hardships with him on the battlefield.
