Chapter 195: The Soldiers of Shu (Part )
pain.

It was as if someone had stuffed a red-hot iron bead into his eye. The pain surged like a flood and almost overwhelmed Wang Yao's consciousness!
At this moment, all the anger and danger were thrown out of the window. Wang Yao curled up on the ground, covering his left eye tightly. The intense pain kept eroding his consciousness, making him sweat coldly and gasp uncontrollably.

What was even more equal to the piercing pain was that Wang Yao's heart instantly sank.

——He is blind!

Everything happened so fast that even though he couldn't see the details clearly, Wang Yao knew by instinct that his left eye would definitely not be saved.

This was the first time in Wang Yao's long military service that he had suffered permanent injuries that could not be healed naturally. For a moment, panic, fear, and despair surged like a flood, completely disrupting his thoughts.

At this moment, a majestic and deep voice came over: "As a soldier, you are amazing, but also stupid."

Amid the sound of footsteps, a pair of blood-red combat boots appeared in Wang Yao's blurred right vision. "When you saw that sword just now, I thought you would use your companion's body to block it. After all, in my opinion, only by doing so can you survive, and it is also the most correct choice. But I didn't expect that at a critical moment, you would still want to protect your companion. If not for this, you would not have been hurt."

The familiar voice made Wang Yao clench his teeth instinctively, and he raised his head with difficulty to look over.

He was a middle-aged man with long hair wearing scarlet blood armor, with dragon eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a full forehead, a beard on his chin, and long black hair neatly combed behind his back. He had an invisible aura of majesty without even being angry. At this moment, the tip of the blood-red giant sword in his hand was still dripping with blood.

When Wang Yao saw the pursuer's face clearly, he felt so painful that he wanted to bang his head against the ground. But at that moment, he forgot the pain because of fear.

The bloody hero Cao Cao!

Wang Yao panicked. He had not expected that Wei still had so many heroes guarding the high ground. This was far beyond his expectations! The reason why Wei's top lane was so easily penetrated was because there was an ambush in the enemy's high ground? !

But why? Is it worth all the trouble for a small army? Or is it that Wei is waiting for someone else?

Just when Wang Yao was silently enduring the pain and puzzled, Cao Cao suddenly came over again with the giant sword in his hand. With just a slight wave of the giant sword in his hand, he could easily take off Wang Yao's head!
Seeing that burly blood-red figure getting closer and closer, Wang Yao subconsciously used the Endless War Blade to support his body and struggled to stand up. However, the severe pain like burning fire had drained all the strength from his body. Just as he stood up tremblingly, he fell heavily to the ground again.

At this moment, a delicate blue figure rushed to Wang Yao's side. It turned out to be Maomao who had regained consciousness at some point and rushed over, holding Wang Yao tightly in his arms, as if he was guarding something important.

Cao Cao stopped and silently looked down at the beautiful female soldier who was resolutely protecting her companions.

"Could you please move aside, little girl?" Cao Cao asked. He was very polite, but as the king of Wei, a country famous throughout the Three Kingdoms period, his honorifics were sharper and more terrifying than swords!
In this situation, no soldier dared to disobey Cao Cao.

However, a subtle emotion that never changes gave Maomao the courage he didn't know where it came from. Without any hesitation, he said directly and resolutely: "I won't allow you to hurt him!"

Although she was so scared that tears welled up in her eyes and her lips were trembling when she spoke, the firmness in her tone was still very obvious.

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then a flash of realization flashed across his face: "Is this little soldier your lover?"

Cao Cao knew that in every legion, there were many soldiers with such feelings between men and women, but seeing that Maomao just bit his lips tightly and said nothing, he said again: "I didn't mean to hurt him, you misunderstood."

Holding Wang Yao tightly in his body, Maomao, who was full of vigilance, looked as pale as paper. Although he bit his lip and said nothing, his pair of eyes as dark as a deer's still stared at Cao Cao stubbornly.

"Shu is really a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. First there is the peerless general Guan Yu, then there is the rare genius Zhuge Liang. Even the soldiers are all of noble character. It is really rare." Cao Cao sighed as if he had some feelings, and then slowly squatted down. Huh——

The burly body squatted down, like a mountain pressing down on top of one's head, bringing up a vortex of airflow. Maomao's face turned even paler, and he almost threw a fireball at him with his backhand.

But Maomao stopped halfway because she suddenly realized that the legendary King of Wei in front of her really didn't seem to have any intention of taking action. His pair of strange and rare dark red phoenix eyes just stared at Wang Yao in his arms from beginning to end.

Do they know each other?

After a while, Cao Cao suddenly spoke up: "Little soldier, I have secretly visited your Jingzhou before. The civilian I saw on the roadside at that time, was it you?"

At this time, after this short period of restraint, Wang Yao had already adapted to the pain and slowly recovered. He gently loosened his hand that was covering his left eye, and in the blood, he saw a vertical scarlet sword mark that suddenly appeared in his left eye.

The sword mark was nearly an inch deep, extending from the middle of Wang Yao's eyebrows to under his eyelids. It was bloody and horrifying to see! At least Maomao beside him was already scared at the time.
"I didn't expect you to remember me." Wang Yao looked back at Cao Cao and said in a hoarse voice while stopping Maomao who wanted to clean his wound.

Having said that, Wang Yao didn't understand what Cao Cao's intention was.

"Ha, it's you. I didn't expect that the civilian back then would actually be a soldier in the Shu Kingdom." Cao Cao laughed heartily twice, then looked at Wang Yao steadily. In his bloodshot eyes, the same admiration emerged as before.

"I saw the whole process, and I respect everything you did for your comrades. Although you are just a soldier, you are much nobler than us heroes who don't know the value of life. Moreover, you are very powerful."

Before Cao Cao could finish his words, he was interrupted by a voice.

"King Wei!"

However, Lu Bu and Xiahou Dun had already followed. Seeing Wang Yao's blind eye, Lu Bu, who was originally very angry, immediately said sarcastically, "Humph, you are so smart. I let you run! Now you have become a one-eyed dragon, right? You deserve it!"

As a result, Wang Yao didn't respond yet, but Xiahou Dun, who was standing on the side, suddenly became unhappy and retorted angrily on the spot: "One-eyed is a man's romance, you know shit!!"

"Can you say that again?!"

"If you're unhappy, come and duel!"

Cao Cao was too lazy to care about the two generals under his command. Instead, he approached Wang Yao and said in a deep voice: "Our target this time is not you, so I can give you two choices now. Either you surrender to our Wei State, and I can not only protect you two from death, but also let you live in wealth and glory for the rest of your life, or... die here!"

Lü Bu, who was still arguing with Xiahou Dun, immediately stopped when he heard this. He walked up and glared at Wang Yao, who was already defenseless, and said to Cao Cao, "King of Wei, didn't you say that if I let them go and lead them to the high ground, you would hand over this little soldier to me?!"

Cao Cao raised his hand, signaling Lu Bu to be quiet, and then continued to say to Wang Yao: "You are a rare talent, it would be a pity to kill you. In fact, as early as when I saw you in Jingzhou, I wanted to recruit you to our Wei State, but the conditions did not allow it at that time. Today, you are in a desperate situation, and only I, Cao Cao, can save you. I hope you don't make the wrong choice this time!"

After saying this, Cao Cao stood up again and said seriously: "Kneel down and submit to me immediately, and I will spare your lives!"

　It's Monday, please give me a vote.
