Chapter 5

To prevent his Dragon Guard from falling into the hands of Boss Cao, Qin Feng hurried towards the Xu Family Village, but he heard someone calling out behind him. He turned around and saw Liu Bei catching up.

Liu Bei was taken aback when he caught up, immediately sensing that Qin Feng, wearing sunglasses, exuded an extraordinary and imposing aura. He quickly grasped the key point and leaned forward to see: "Brother Zijin, what are you wearing on your eyes? It looks quite nice..."

Qin Feng took off his sunglasses and smiled, "This is called sunglasses."

"Can I try them on?" Liu Bei touched his long ears, thinking that if he wore them, he would look even better than Qin Feng, after all, his ears were longer, which would complement the look. For a moment, he forgot the purpose of following Qin Feng.

Qin Feng read Liu Bei's expression and thought, "One-Ear, your ears are long, but your face is too thin. Do you think you're the Buddha?" As he raised the sunglasses in his hand, Liu Bei reached out eagerly. But Qin Feng put them in his shirt pocket and said, "This is a one-of-a-kind treasure."

"Treasure!" Liu Bei laughed awkwardly, then remembered the purpose of following Qin Feng. As he approached, his expression became serious, "Brother Zijin, Cao Mengde has led his troops into the village. We don't know if he can win. Why don't we help him? If we win, we'll also get credit."

Qin Feng looked him up and down and held up five fingers, "Xuande, you didn't dare to face five Yellow Turbans, and now you want to face five thousand?"

Liu Bei was stunned, feeling very ashamed, but he quickly became righteous, patted his chest, and said, "I am moved by your righteousness, Brother Zijin. I am ashamed of my previous actions, but from now on, I will be different. I am willing to serve the country and bring peace to the people with you!"

Qin Feng smiled slightly, thinking, "I believe you? I might as well believe that a sow can climb a tree." He turned and headed towards the Xu Family Village, and Liu Bei hurriedly followed.

Five minutes later, they faintly heard the sounds of battle.

Qin Feng looked down the road and saw that it led to the foot of a large mountain.

To avoid suddenly encountering a large number of Yellow Turban soldiers, Qin Feng said to Liu Bei, "Xuande, let's enter the forest and stealthily approach the village entrance. We'll check the situation and then decide what to do!"

These words struck a chord with Liu Bei. He was overjoyed, thinking, "Qin Zijin is smart. We'll check quietly. If Cao Cao can win, we'll help. If he can't, we'll run away!"

Liu Bei looked at the end of the road and had a feeling that the Yellow Turban bandits were about to appear. He was startled and rushed into the forest in three quick steps.

Qin Feng, who had just said to enter the forest, saw Liu Bei crash out, landing on his face. He was shocked and said, "Oh, Xuande! How did you go in standing and come out crawling?"

Liu Bei shivered in pain, thinking, "Do you think I want to come out like this?" He scrambled to his feet and quickly ran back to the road, shouting, "Brother, run! There's a tiger in the forest!"

"Tiger!" Qin Feng looked closely and indeed saw a tiger's shadow in the forest, getting closer. He was terrified, his hair standing on end, thinking, "One-Ear, you didn't say anything until now, and you ran in front of me!"

However, Qin Feng then laughed, because he realized that it was indeed a tiger, but "it looks like a tiger from afar, and it still looks like a tiger up close, but it doesn't bite—dead tiger!"

It turned out that a strong man was carrying a dead tiger out of the forest.

Qin Feng recognized the man and was extremely excited, calling out, "Zhongkang!"

"Zhongkang!" Liu Bei was startled, thinking, "Is Qin Zijin crazy? Does a tiger have a name? Do you think it's a pet?"

"Who called me Xu Chu!" A towering figure emerged from the forest, like an iron tower, with a prominent feature being his thick waist. He was carrying a tiger, looking very fierce.

Qin Feng's bodyguard appeared, but the Dragon Guard no longer recognized his former lord. Therefore, Qin Feng knew he needed to rebuild their relationship and immediately smiled, "Xu Zhongkang, the Tiger Fool, your reputation is widespread. You are a rare and loyal hero. I am Qin Feng, Qin Zijin. It is a great honor to meet you today!"

"I have such a reputation!" Xu Chu had always lived in the Xu Family Village. Although he was strong and liked to stand up for justice, he was at most known as a big guy. To be called a hero today was a great compliment. Seeing Qin Feng's sincerity, Xu Chu felt a sense of kinship and quickly threw the tiger, bowed, and said, "Brother, I, Xu Chu, also greet you!"

"It's a dead tiger!" Liu Bei, seeing Xu Chu's strength, thought that if he could get such a person to help in these chaotic times, he could surely achieve great things. Therefore, he hurriedly ran over, bowed, and said, "Hero, I am Liu Bei, Liu Xuande, a descendant of Emperor Xiaojing... Ouch, cough, cough..."

Qin Feng slapped Liu Bei on the chest, "This is Liu Bei!"

Liu Bei stumbled, thinking, "You didn't need to use so much force to introduce me."

Throughout history, the first impression is very important. Although Xu Chu first met Liu Bei, Liu Bei was scared away by a dead tiger, so Xu Chu thought Liu Bei was a coward. However, he saw Qin Feng differently, especially since Qin Feng called him a hero, which was what Xu Chu most wanted to be, so he felt a growing fondness.

Qin Feng, seeing Xu Chu's expression, knew he didn't recognize him and sighed, thinking, "Indeed, everything has to start over." As he was pondering how to win back his former loyal Dragon Guard, the sounds of battle came from a distance.

Xu Chu looked at his village in surprise.

"Run, the Yellow Turbans have surrounded the government troops, run!"

"Hey, Zhongkang! You're back!" A group of villagers, panic-stricken, ran over from the road, seeing Xu Chu and showing great joy, they gathered around him.

"Zhongkang, quickly lead us to run!" The villagers knew of Xu Chu's bravery and relied on him.

Xu Chu's face changed, "My father and sister are still in the village!" He dropped the tiger and rushed off.

"Cao Mengde is surrounded!" Qin Feng was startled and grabbed Xu Chu.

Xu Chu turned and glared, "What are you doing?"

Qin Feng, although aware of his Dragon Guard's formidable strength, did not want to see him rush into a crowd of five thousand Yellow Turbans without armor. Therefore, he quickly said, "Zhongkang, don't rush. We need to plan carefully to save your family!"

Qin Feng's sincere gaze gradually won Xu Chu's trust.

Thus, Qin Feng, Liu Bei, and Xu Chu hid in the forest and headed towards the village.

The fifty or so villagers, realizing their families were still in the village, gathered some courage and followed.

Shortly, Qin Feng and the others reached a small hill behind the village entrance.

As Qin Feng peeked out, Liu Bei sighed, "I knew it. Cao Mengde's five hundred men can't defeat five thousand Yellow Turbans. Zijin, let's go while the Yellow Turbans haven't noticed us!"

Qin Feng saw that on the open ground outside the village, Cao Cao's cavalry had lost their advantage and were being surrounded by five thousand Yellow Turbans. He also saw Cao Cao personally leading the outer line, and every time he raised his sword, his sharp sword would take several Yellow Turbans' lives. However, the situation was becoming increasingly dire.

Qin Feng thought, "This is bad. History has changed again." In his previous life, Cao Cao had helped him and China a great deal, so although the situation was critical, Qin Feng could not stand by and watch a national hero die young.

Moreover, with Liu Bei's suggestion to leave, Xu Chu and the villagers' pleading gazes fell on Qin Feng.

Xu Chu, although impulsive, was also thoughtful. He realized that while he was not afraid to go alone, it would be impossible to safely bring out his family. He glared at Liu Bei, who was suggesting they run, and quickly bowed to Qin Feng, "Brother, I know you are capable. Please save our Xu Family Village!"

The fifty or so villagers also bowed, "Sir, please save our Xu Family Village!"

Liu Bei scoffed, thinking, "Don't be ridiculous. Cao Mengde's five hundred men are trapped. How can Qin Zijin, a lone commander, do anything?"

The cries and sounds of battle echoed through the sky, and Qin Feng's heart sank. He never imagined that he would encounter such a dire situation just a few hours after returning.
