"Tap!"

Accompanied by a burst of rapid horse hooves.

Immediately afterwards, a figure riding a warhorse hurried over.

"Fourth Young Master, something terrible has happened! Fires have broken out all over Xudu. The fires have grown so large that they cannot be stopped. Please evacuate now!"

The visitor said anxiously.

This man's name was Wang Bi, and he was once the chief secretary of the Sikong Mansion.

When Cao Cao moved his entire court of civil and military officials to Ye City.

Man Chong, the prefect of Xudu, became the prefect of Yecheng.

Wang Bi was promoted from the Chief Clerk of the Sikong Mansion to the new Magistrate of Xudu.

As Cao Cao's spy, he monitored the emperor, other royal family members, and some ministers loyal to the Han Dynasty.

Wang must be Cao Cao's most trusted confidant.

Otherwise, Cao Cao would not have kept him in Xu Du.

At this moment, after hearing Wang Bi say that fires broke out in various places in Xudu.

Cao Zhi had an idea.

The Saker Falcon immediately soared into the sky.

After a few breaths.

The Saker Falcon landed on Cao Zhi's shoulder.

Through communication with Costin.

Only then did Cao Zhi know.

In the present city of Xudu.

There were dozens of fire points of various sizes.

These fire points were spread all over Xudu in the east, south, west and north.

Although it was just a spark, it has become a prairie fire under the influence of the wind.

If it is not stopped in time, Xu Du will be destroyed in an instant.

Of course, judging by the current intensity of the fire, human power is no longer able to stop it.

The only solution now is to organize everyone to leave the city to avoid the fire.

"Damn it, who set the fire!" Cao Zhi was furious.

So many places were on fire at the same time.

Cao Zhi didn't think this was an accident.

"However, even if a fire breaks out, I will keep Liu Bei!"

Thinking about how hard he had managed to trap Liu Bei.

Cao Zhi was unwilling to give up the good situation before him.

Cao Zhi had confidence.

Before the fire came.

Captured Liu Bei and Guan Yu.

"Ding, the system has detected that the host is facing a choice and now offers the following three options."

"Choose one: Capture Liu Bei to gain the ability 'Borrow the East Wind' once. That is, if the host silently recites 'Borrow the East Wind' ten times, an east wind will blow at the time and place they need it!"

"Choice 2: Release Liu Bei to receive a "Pray for Rain" spell. That is, if the host silently recites "Pray for Rain" ten times, heavy rain will fall at the time and place they desire!"

"Choose three: neither capture nor release Liu Bei. This grants you the ability 'Watching the Fire from the Other Side'. This means that if you silently recite 'Watching the Fire from the Other Side' ten times, a fire will break out in the enemy's main tent during the battle."

Accompanied by the sound of the system.

It echoed in Cao Zhi's mind.

Cao Zhi was stunned.

When did the system’s rewards become so powerful?

There was wind, rain, and fire.

So I traveled to the world of immortal cultivation???

However, the system already exists, so why bother with anything else!

You must know that in this era.

The story of Zhuge Liang borrowing the east wind also happened!

Even if you can't figure it out, don't think about it.

Recall the three rewards given by the system.

Cao Zhi couldn't help but feel conflicted.

According to Cao Zhi's idea.

Naturally, it would be more beneficial to him to capture Liu Bei.

After all, in today's world.

Among the enemies who opposed Cao Zhi and his son.

Only Liu Bei has the ability and courage.

As long as he captures Liu Bei.

Then the remaining princes are all worthless!

The reward given by option 2 can just save the current crisis!

Although Cao Zhi traveled through time to the present day.

After the baptism of this era.

Cao Zhi has long become more hard-hearted than Kun Kun!

But I thought of a refreshing rain.

Maybe it doesn't even need to be reduced to ashes.

Tens of thousands of people in the city would not have to become disaster victims.

Cao Zhi did not dare to ignore option two.

"Well, if Liu Bei escapes, we can just catch him back. With me here, Liu Bei can't cause any trouble!"

After some hesitation, Cao Zhi made a decision in his heart.

After taking a deep look at Liu Bei and Guan Yu, Cao Zhi said loudly:

"Liu Xuande, you will be my prisoner sooner or later!"

After saying this.

Cao Zhi gave the order immediately.

Let all the soldiers follow him out of the imperial city to put out the fire.

As soon as this order came out.

Almost everyone was stunned.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu looked at each other.

I don't understand why Cao Zhi did this.

Cao Zhang, Zhang Liao and Le Jin looked at each other.

They both saw doubt in each other's eyes.

As for Jia Xu, he was lost in thought at this moment.

However, Jia Xu did not object.

Just like that, under the leadership of Cao Zhi.

Cao Zhi's army left here quickly.

……

See in the blink of an eye.

The Cao army that was blocking his way was nowhere to be seen.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu were immediately overjoyed.

"Brother, what on earth is the reason why this little thief Cao did this?"

Guan Yu asked in confusion.

"It must be Yuan Zhi who made a commotion outside, forcing Cao the thief to retreat!"

Thinking of Wang Bi who had hurried over earlier, Liu Bei sighed.

"So what should we do next? Should we continue looking for the Emperor?"

Guan Yu said again.

"The enemy is well prepared. We have no chance. Furthermore, the strength of the little thief Cao is truly incredible... After finding Yuan Zhi, we will immediately return to Xuzhou and reunite with my third brother!"

Liu Bei said in a deep voice.

Seeing that Liu Bei actually said he wanted to retreat.

Guan Yu instinctively wanted to object.

After all, he and others were planning to launch a surprise attack on Xu Du.

It consumed huge manpower, material resources and financial resources.

But when I think of Cao Zhi's terrifying fighting ability.

Guan Yu silently accepted Liu Bei's order.

When the two of them rode their horses to the gate of the imperial city.

What meets the eye are corpses with their eyes open.

Among these corpses were Liu Bei's men and Wang Bi's men.

I think the blood on Wang Bigang's body was the result of the fight with Xu Shu.

There are a dozen buildings at the end of the long street.

A raging fire has already started at this moment.

Liu Bei and the other man guessed that this was Xu Shu's trick.

"My Lord, Second General, are you all right?"

Accompanied by an exclamation.

Afterwards, Xu Shu, covered in dust, appeared in front of Liu Bei and the others.

"My lord, Cao's army suddenly appeared just now, and I was so scared that I hid myself. I thought something happened to you, but I didn't expect you to be safe and sound!"

Xu Shu said excitedly.

Between life and death, on Xu Shu's face.

He no longer had the calmness and composure he had before, but now felt more grateful for having survived the disaster.

"Mr. Xu, if it weren't for you, we would have died here today!"

"Let's leave the city immediately!"

Liu Bei clasped his fists.

“Because of me???”

Xu Shu was confused.

But Xu Shu also knew it.

Now is not the time to chat.

So he hurriedly called the remaining troops to join Liu Bei's army.

……

"Ding, congratulations to the host for making your choice. Now I'm rewarding you with one "Pray for Rain"! That is, the host silently recites "Pray for Rain" ten times in their heart. At the time and place you desire, heavy rain will fall!"

When Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Xu Shu met up.

The moment the army began to flee.

The system's voice sounded in Cao Zhi's mind.

See that the system reward has arrived.

Cao Zhi immediately recited the words "pray for rain" in his heart.

After ten times.

The originally cloudless sky was immediately covered with dark clouds.

"Kaka!"

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky.

Soon after, a heavy rain followed.

As soon as the heavy rain appeared, it extinguished the fire in Xudu City.

The people of Xudu were already devastated by the fire.

They all knelt on the ground, muttering to themselves.

……

West of the palace.

On the high platform outside the Taimiao.

Emperor Xian of Han was standing facing the wind at this time.

Watching Liu Bei fleeing not far away.

Emperor Xian of Han immediately felt a sense of joy in his heart.

In his opinion, as long as Liu Bei was there, the anti-Cao forces would not disappear.

However, after seeing the sky suddenly started to rain heavily.

Emperor Xian of Han couldn't help but feel a pang of anxiety in his heart.

To rescue Liu Bei.

He didn't hesitate to expose himself.

It was just to create panic in Xudu.

But now, Liu Bei was saved.

But what about the flame?

How long did it burn before it went out?

What do you mean?

Is it possible that even God is helping Cao Cao?

Thinking of this, Emperor Xian of Han couldn't help but look towards the depths of the Taimiao.

He wanted to ask his ancestors, "Is the Han Dynasty really doomed?"
