Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 369: Uprooted


In the next day, the Prime Minister's residence was already in chaos. The strategists, aides and generals were obeying Cao Cao's orders and successively transferred back the troops that had been sent to Hebei to fight against Yuan Shao. Lead the army to the east and rush to the station of Sun Ce of the Eastern Wu Dynasty.

Doing this is equivalent to disrupting all previous plans, and even leaving Yuan Shao's army to cut off his own path. Everything has to be replanned. That night was busy all night, and before dawn the next morning, some staff had already written a memorial to the emperor. Although Prime Minister Cao's power is now overwhelming the court and the opposition, such a major event still has to go to the court as usual.

There are still two or three hours before the early morning. At the moment, under the persuasion of his staff, Cao Cao reluctantly agreed to take a nap for two hours. The fright I received yesterday has almost eased, and it is time to take a little rest.

Prime Minister Cao was too lazy to go to the dormitory, so the housekeeper made the bed in the middle of the hall. When everyone saw that the Prime Minister was going to rest, they all withdrew from the central hall. Xiahou Yuan personally guarded the door for Cao Cao at the door.

At this time, Cao Cao was also extremely tired, and he fell asleep not long after lying on the bed. Just after Prime Minister Cao fell asleep, a middle-aged man in black suddenly appeared out of thin air on the roof of the central hall. Seeing Cao Cao snoring slightly below, the man took out a slender silk thread from his arms.

The man in black skillfully tied one end of the silk thread in a circle, and then put the silk thread at the end of the circle down toward the position where Cao Cao fell asleep. This silk thread was in the hands of the man in black, as if it had life. It was like a spirit snake circling above Cao Cao's head, and then silently wrapped the circle around the Prime Minister's neck. I don't know if Cao Cao was very tired, and a silk coil was placed around his neck, but he didn't even feel at all.

At this moment, the man in black held his breath and suddenly lifted the silk thread in his hand. Cao Cao's head was cut off in the blood. At this time, Prime Minister Cao Cao, who was sleeping, did not shout a word.

The man in black was also a little excited when he saw that he had gone to Cao Cao's Xiangshang head. It was only after he adjusted his breathing that he returned to normal, and then the man in black used a silk thread tied in a circle to just hoop on the man's head. In the end, he lifted the head up little by little with his hands and placed it in a brocade box that had been prepared and filled with lime.

After everything was cleaned up, the man in black stood up from the beam. Gently remove the roof tiles one by one, revealing a hole that can accommodate a person in and out. After feeling that he could get in and out of this hole, the man in black turned over and drilled out of the hole, and then disappeared into the first light of morning light.

After coming out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the man in black suppressed the ecstasy in his heart. He walked quickly through a roof, and it didn't take long for him to turn over from the city wall. When he left Xuchang City, the sky was already bright. In the ecstatic excitement, the people in black felt light and airy. He himself could not have imagined how easy it would be to kill Cao Cao and lead to Jiang Dong Sun Ce's head. In this way, when I returned to Hebei and met my lord, I didn't know what kind of reward I would receive.

The man in black ran to a long-disused alchemist dojo, twenty miles outside Xuchang City. It has been uninhabited for many years, and it has long been dilapidated and crumbling. After the man in black entered the dojo, he first walked around and made sure that the person he was waiting for did not appear, and then he carried the head of the person carrying Cao Cao to the roof beam. I closed my eyes and fell asleep while guarding the beam...

The man in black is also a very tired person these days, but even when he is asleep, he is still vigilant in his heart. As long as there is any trouble around him, he can wake up immediately.

I don't know how long I slept, but the man in black who was sleeping suddenly heard the sound of someone entering the dojo. Feeling that an outsider entered the dojo, the man in black had opened his eyes, and his eyes were fixed on a man in sackcloth who entered the dojo below.

After seeing the face of the person who came, the man in black laughed and jumped off the roof beam. After shaking the brocade box in his hand for a while, he said, "Huang Bing has not been disgraced, and has already cut off the head of the national thief Cao Cao. The lord must be delighted to see the head of this old friend."

While speaking, Huang Bing, the man in black, had already opened the brocade box by himself, and there was no doubt that the grinning head among the limes inside was Cao Cao. The man in Mai also couldn't believe his eyes. The man in black and his companions were originally used as abandoned sons to bring trouble to Eastern Wu. Unexpectedly, this abandoned son was able to take Cao Cao's head back.

After confirming that Cao Cao's head was inside the lime, the Mai people believed it. He glanced at the man in black with some envy, but now he said that Cao Cao died in his own hands, not to mention the reward given by the lord after returning. This reputation is enough for the younger generation, so how could such a great deed fall into the hands of this abandoned son.

At the moment, the man in mai used his own secret method of sound transmission to inform the nearby companions that he had obtained the news of Cao Cao's head. It didn't take long for seven or eight men in sackcloth to gather here. After these people saw Cao Cao's head, they couldn't believe their eyes. After confirming that the owner of the head was Cao Cao, the man in linen who took the lead said: "Since Cao Cao is dead, Xuchang is bound to be in chaos. There is no need for us to stay here. Back to Hebei..."

Before this sentence was finished, there was a sudden sound of breaking wind outside the dojo. Just when these people suddenly felt that something was wrong, countless arrows shot in from all directions. Including the men in black, ordinary people died on the spot and were shot by arrows.

There are monks with some Taoism who survived, and these people don't dare to take action without knowing what's going on outside. At the moment, several people found a place to hide, and at the same time began to use the Five Elements escape method to prepare to escape from here. However, at this time, they discovered that they didn't know what had been banned here.

At the moment, the man in linen who took the lead reacted and opened the brocade box containing Cao Cao's head again, and saw what Cao Cao's head was inside. He was obviously a stranger in his twenties or thirties with scars all over his face, and he was tricked...

"The plan is in! We still have a chance to escape. The four of us are divided into four positions to break through, and if one escapes, one is counted as one..." Before he finished speaking, the man had already stood up and headed towards the arrows, which were relatively sparse. The position rushed out. After seeing that he was not hit by any arrows, the second man in linen followed behind this man and charged down to a position.

But at the same time this person rushed over, the arrows that were originally sparse instantly became denser. With a sound of "Whoosh!", 1,800 arrows flew over at the same time, instantly shooting the two into hedgehogs.

After seeing the tragic appearance of the two people, the expressions of the remaining two people changed. The two made gestures, indicating that they both got up and ran towards the two positions at the same time. With any luck, maybe one person can escape this disaster.

At this moment, just as a person said, he suddenly jumped up from the ground. Before taking a few steps, he was shot by the bow and arrow, and his speed slowed down slightly. More arrows shot at him, and the moment the man fell to the ground and died, he saw his companion who was supposed to be running in the opposite direction at the same time, and fell to the ground tremblingly.

After seeing that all the people were dead, the last man in linen shouted: "Falling! I came down...don't kill me, whatever you want to know, I will say..."

A group of soldiers in light armour charged in with knives and guns after hearing the surrender. The man was tied up, and two hours later, the only surviving man in linen was sent to the prime minister's residence in Xuchang City.

When Cao Cao personally interrogated this person, in the hall, Zuo Ci said to the smiling Gui Bugui: "Thank you Mr. Gui for his brilliant plan, if it wasn't for Mr. Gui's help, Zuo Ci would never have imagined that Yuan Shao would be left in Xuchang like this. The fine works of the city are uprooted..."

Before Zuo Ci finished speaking, Wu Mian, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly sneered and said, "Do you think this is over?"
