Chapter 351 Three Years Later

A heavy snowfall hit, and the river was covered with snow.

The heavy snow also ushered in the severe winter of the seventh year of Jian'an. The temperature dropped sharply, and many people had to stay at home and refused to go out.

Cao Peng stood on the edge of the school field, quietly watching the two teenagers fighting in the field.

One has slightly yellow hair, while the other has a big body and a round waist, with a big ax flying and whirring in his hand.

Behind Cao Peng, Xia Houlan and Han De stood quietly.

Twenty black men stood on the sidelines, watching the confrontation between the two teenagers and whispering from time to time.

In a flash, it has been three years.

Cao Peng is twenty years old, and he is growing more like his father, Cao Ji.

Perhaps due to years of martial arts practice, his skin color is bronze. He is over eight feet tall and his body is extremely strong. When he was a boy, Cao Peng gave people a feeling of being weak and frail. But as an adult, Cao Peng looked like a head.

A male lion. As he grows older, his body shape gradually develops towards the horizontal direction. Perhaps because of the improvement of living conditions, he looks quite imposing like Cao Ji. He is majestic and tall, standing there, giving people a

Feeling of oppression.

Even without speaking, Xia Houlan and Han De could sense the pressure exerted on Cao Peng.

It was not just evil spirit, but more of a righteous pressure. It seemed that as Cao Peng read more and more, he became more and more powerful. Sometimes, Xia Houlan even felt that Cao Peng

Peng's aura is very similar to Cheng Yu's. Standing next to him always makes people fearful, but they can't explain why.

The young man who fought in the field, Huang Xuer, was Cao Cao's third son, Cao Zhang.

The one who fought against Cao Zhang was Dian Wei's nephew Niu Gang.

In the past three years, Cao Zhang and Niu Gang have been practicing martial arts with Cao Peng and have made rapid progress. Cao Zhang, in particular, has great natural strength... After systematic training, his arms can split into tiger and leopard shapes.

Human enemy.

Where is Niu Gang?

Different from Cao Zhang.

He did not have Cao Zhang's understanding, so he did not enter the country as quickly as Cao Zhang.

However, in terms of strength alone, Niu Gang was better than Cao Zhang. Even when he was wrestling with Dianman, he did not lose at all.

Among the second generation of Cao men, Niu Gang ranked second in strength. And the first place was Xu Yi, the son of Xu Chu. Of course, if Cao Peng was included, he might not be inferior to Niu Gang. But because of his identity, he was Niu Gang.

He was just a teacher, so many people unknowingly included Cao Peng in the first generation of Cao, so there was no name Cao Peng in the second generation.

Dianman ranked third and Diancun ranked fourth.

Cao Zhang ranks fifth on the Cao Second Generation Divine Power List...

I saw him holding a big gun and fighting with Niu Gang. The big gun swayed as fast as lightning and with great force. But Niu Gang was unhurried, and the big ax flew in his hand, drawing arcs of cold light.

Mang, hold on until water can't get in... Although Cao Zhang's marksmanship is fast and fierce, Niu Gang is determined to defend, and it is not easy to win for a while.

Along the path, three boys came.

The leader was short in stature, with a round face and a little baby fat. His face was red from the cold due to the weather, like a ripe apple. He jumped in front, and the two boys followed closely.

…

One is slightly taller and looks very strong.

The other one's writing is weak and has a bookish air.

"Teacher, I'm here!"

The leader of the boys called out in a sweet voice.

Cao Peng turned around, saw the boy, and couldn't help but smile, "Cang Shu, has get out of class ended over there?"

"Well, get out of class is over."

"What did you learn today?"

"At first, Mr. Derun taught us "The Classic of Filial Piety", then Mr. Guangyuan taught us "Disciple Regulations", and finally Mr. Shiyuan asked us to practice calligraphy. Teacher, today Mr. Shiyuan also praised me and said that I wrote

His handwriting is very good.”

The smile in Cao Peng's eyes grew stronger.

Three years later, Cao Chong still followed him as his disciple.

However, the people who taught Cao Chong were originally Cao Peng, Kanze and Huang Yueying, and now Pang Tong and Shi Tao have been added. Shi Tao is a native of Yingchuan and a good friend of Xu Shu. Now he works at Taipus Temple and teaches Cao Chong in his spare time.

.

In the sixth year of Jian'an, Yuan Shao once again raised troops.

Two hundred thousand troops crossed the river by force in June and fought a decisive battle with Cao Cao at Cangting.

Cao Cao adopted Cheng Yu's plan and relied on the river to fight Yuan Shao to the death. He set up an ambush on all sides and defeated Yuan Shao in Cangting, causing Yuan Shao to be severely weakened again and retreat to Hebei. After the battle of Cangting, Cao Cao took advantage of the situation to cross the river.

, began the expedition to Hebei. Cao Peng did not participate in the Battle of Cangting, and still stayed in Xudu City...

For him, the Battle of Cangting was a war that existed in history.

In other words, before the Battle of Cangting started, Cao Peng already knew the outcome.

In May of the seventh year of Jian'an, Yuan Shao died of depression at the age of forty-nine.

In the battle against Cangting, Cao Peng really had nothing to say. Privately, Pang Tong once said: After the defeat of Guandu, although Yuan Shao's vitality was seriously injured, his foundation was still there. It would take ten years for Cao Cao to destroy Yuan Shao. It's a pity.

, he rashly started the Battle of Cangting, which completely shook the foundation of Hebei. The 200,000-strong army was wiped out, and Cao Cao was bound to switch from defense to offense... Yuan Shao was too ambitious. If he could lower his temper, this victory would be

The negative is yet to be determined.

Cao Peng declined to comment.

After Yuan Shao died of illness, it also indicated that Cao Cao had completely taken the initiative.

Shi Tao came to Xudu with Xu Shu after the Battle of Cangting in the sixth year of Jian'an.

Xu Shu received Pang Tong's letter. After reading the Wandering Song, he couldn't help but burst into tears...

Although Zhuge Liang and Meng Jian and Cui Zhouping tried hard to persuade Xu Shu to stay, Xu Shu was eager to return, and the three of them had to say goodbye to him in tears.

Shi Tao is Xu Shu's best friend.

Since Xu Shu wanted to go home, he didn't want to stay in Jingzhou anymore.

In August of the sixth year of Jian'an, the two returned to Yingchuan first. Xu Shu first visited Huang Yan, who was teaching at Yingchuan Academy, and then took Shi Tao to Xudu to visit Cao Peng. After some discussions, Cao Peng

He recommended Xu Shu to go to Dongjun and assume the post of Sima of Dongjun. In the sixth year of Jian'an, after the Battle of Cangting, Xia Houyuan was ordered to go to Hanoi and serve as the prefect of Hanoi... Cheng Yu served as the governor of Yanzhou and worshiped Deng Ji as his farewell commander.

He is also in charge of the order of jujube and the captain of Diannong school.

Because of this, Xu Shu was recommended by Deng Ji and Cao Peng, and was favored and worshiped as Sima by the new governor of Dongjun, alongside Deng Fan.

Shi Tao stayed in Xudu and served in Taipu Temple.

Later, on the recommendation of Cao Peng, he served as Cao Chong's teacher.

In the past two years, Cao Peng wrote another article, "Disciple Regulations", which together with "Eight Hundred Character Essay" and "Three Character Classic" are three articles. It has become the standard enlightenment textbook for all private schools in academies. Cao Peng also gained enlightenment through this.

The name of the master.

However, Cao Peng's reputation in Qingliu became more and more famous, but Cao Cao never let him become an official.

Even Kong Rong stood up to speak for Cao Peng, but Cao Cao still dismissed it, thinking that Cao Peng needed to continue to think about his mistakes.

Just like that, it was already the end of the seventh year of Jian'an.

Of the two boys behind Cao Chong, the weak one is Xun Yu, the second son of Xun Yu, while the taller one is Cao Peng's nephew Deng Ai. Deng Ai is one year younger than Cao Chong, but in terms of height, he is taller than Cao Chong.

In the fifth year of Jian'an, they studied under Cao Peng together. Deng Ai, Cao Chong and Xun Yu had a very good relationship and often called each other brothers in private.

Cao Peng turned a blind eye to this.

On the corner field, Cao Zhang's big gun clashed with Niu Gang's big ax.

The huge force made Cao Zhang's arms numb and he retreated repeatedly...

"Ziwen, you lose!"

Niu Gang laughed loudly and came forward with a big axe.

The huge disc ax the size of a wheel roared, forcing Cao Zhang to scramble. After finally escaping from Niu Gang's axe, Cao Zhang blushed, roared suddenly, pressed his body down, and the big gun trembled...

As he shook his head for a moment, a strange sound came from his body that seemed to be there but not yet there.

"Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound?"

Cao Peng's eyes lit up and he nodded slightly.

It seems that Cao Zhang's kung fu has been practiced to a certain extent, and his bones and muscles are sharp and solid. At this time, the kung fu has to go into the body, that is, it has to penetrate into the internal organs. Cao Peng also went through such a stage when he first started practicing martial arts.

I know how difficult this step is. If you want to practice it inside the body, you need to make sounds to guide you. The sound comes from the inside out, the power comes from the outside in, and the inside should be combined with the outside. This is what later generations called the "tiger and leopard thunder sound" when they practiced martial arts...

…

The so-called thunder is not a thunderbolt from the blue sky.
