Lu Fei said, "Brother Guan, since your enemies have chased you to this place, they must be powerful. Why don't you come to my place for a drink and treat your wounds before dealing with them?" He knew that Guan Yu had always been conceited. If Lu Fei asked him to hide, he would feel ashamed and unwilling.
Guan Yu hesitated for a moment before saying, "I appreciate Brother Lu's kindness, but this way, Brother Lu will have an enemy."
Lu Fei smiled and said, "You must know that this is Zhuo County. There is a saying that a strong dragon can't suppress a local snake. If they dare to cause trouble, let's see if their background is strong enough." In fact, the imperial court was in imminent danger. The feudal lords were like a sheet of loose sand. No one wanted to meddle in other people's affairs. The words of the royal family might not be used. As long as they were not from the royal family, Lu Fei was confident that he could deal with them.
Seeing that Guan Yu was silent, Lu Fei said, "Brother Guan, you don't look down on me, do you?"
Guan Yu hurriedly said, "I wouldn't dare. I can't refuse Brother Lu's kindness. I will go with you."
Everybody rode their horses into the city until they reached Lu Fei's mansion. Guan Yu saw the porridge stall outside Lu Fei's mansion and was immediately filled with deep veneration. "Turns out Brother Lu is a great philanthropist.
Lu Fei smiled and said, "It's just that my family has some money, so I do some good deeds. If Brother Guan also has some money, you will definitely take it out to help the poor."
Guan Yu said, "Brother Lu has noble character and unquestionable integrity. How can a brute like me compare to you?"
Zhang Fei said, "You are right. My brother not only does good deeds, but also has great talent and bold vision. You will see." He paused and said, "He can also drink."
Guan Yu laughed and stroked his long beard. "Then I will have to ask for your advice."
Lu Fei thought that the ancient people didn't have any entertainment. Other than having some fun at night, the rest was drinking. Fortunately, he had already trained his drinking capacity. The fermented wine was no challenge to him.
The three of them led their men and horses into the mansion. When they passed by a square, Lu Zhong was teaching the guards martial arts. Seeing this, Guan Yu said, "This saber technique is not bad."
Lu Fei knew that Guan Yu also used a saber, so he said, "This saber art is called the 'Bloody Saber Art'. It's just a trick. It's not worth mentioning if you encounter a real Peerless Master Pro."
Guan Yu sighed, "If you can master the art of the blade, you will be able to dominate a region."
The three of them went to Lu Fei's reception hall. Lu Fei ordered the servants to prepare a banquet and entertain Guan Yu first. Then, he bandaged the wounds on Guan Yu's body. Many of the wounds were new and old, which looked terrible. It was obvious that Guan Yu had gone through a tough battle.
Lu Fei asked, "Who is Brother Guan's opponent? Why do you have so many masters under your command?"
Guan Yu said, "This man is a tycoon from Hedong County. He has many hangers-on. His son was killed by me because of his crimes. That's why he sent masters to kill me. But I've already killed half of them. It won't be too late to kill the other half when I'm better."
Lu Fei praised, "Brother Guan is very brave."
The three of them had a good meal in the reception hall. While they were drunk, Lu Fei talked about Guan Yu's age. Zhang Fei suggested, "Today we feel like old friends at first sight. Why don't we become brothers? We will live and die together. Wouldn't that be great?"
Lu Fei was about to say this when Zhang Fei was very perceptive. He said happily, "That would be the best. What do you think, Brother Guan?"
Guan Yu's eyes were hazy with drunkenness. He happily said, "Of course."
The three of them immediately went to the temple to light incense and kowtow. They talked about their ages. Lu Fei was naturally the eldest brother, followed by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Lu Fei wondered what Liu Bei would do if he became brothers with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
After the kowtow, the three of them continued to drink in the reception hall. Not long after, a servant came to report that Zhang Fei's village had been burned down. Many people in the village had been killed and the survivors had fled to the Lu residence. Zhang Fei slapped the table and stood up. He angrily said, "Those bastards have gone too far. I will go find them."
"Third Brother." Lu Fei and Guan Yu stopped him at the same time. Lu Fei said, "You've seen how strong the other side is. What else can he do other than die? It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. I'll remember this. Sooner or later, I'll flatten Hedong and avenge you."
Zhang Fei angrily sat down and sighed, "It is a pity that the village passed down by my ancestors has been destroyed."
Lu Fei smiled and said, "These are all small matters. When this storm is over, I will rebuild a bigger village for you."
Guan Yu said, "I have tired Third Brother."
Zhang Fei said, "What are you talking about? Since we have become brothers, a village is nothing."
Lu Fei said, "Since they have started with Third Brother, I believe they will soon come to the residence to cause trouble. Let's prepare and teach them a lesson." He called Lu Xin in and had him make the arrangements. The three of them continued to drink in the reception hall. They did not care about the strong enemy at all. Guan Yu thought that if the enemy came, he would kill them all. Zhang Fei thought that if worst came to worst, he would fight them to the death. Lu Fei was not worried at all.
After a while, a servant came to report that the other party had suddenly charged in from outside the courtyard walls. The three of them each took out their weapons and rushed out the door. Outside the courtyard walls, they saw Lu Zhong leading his men to fight with the other party. More than ten of his men had already fallen. Lu Fei shouted, "All of you, back down."
Lu Zhong immediately retreated with his men. Lu Fei shouted again, "Release the arrows." Immediately, countless people stood up from the surrounding rooftops and shot arrows at the people who had jumped into the courtyard. The people's martial arts were good. They waved their hands and deflected all the arrows. Taking advantage of the fact that the enemy had not launched a second wave of attacks, they rushed toward Lu Fei and the other two.
Lu Fei held the well-tempered steel saber that Han Shizhen had personally made for him. He took the lead and rushed forward. The saber chopped at the back of the enemy's head at a strange angle. The enemy suddenly heard the sound of wind behind his head. He was shocked and quickly turned around to block Lu Fei with his saber. Lu Fei's arm was numb from the impact of the saber and he was forced to retreat. At this time, Guan Yu was holding a saber in his hand and Zhang Fei was holding a spear. They were fighting the enemy. Although Guan Yu was injured, he was still very brave. Zhang Fei, on the other hand, roared again and again. He wielded the spear in his hand and swept the entire courtyard.
Lu Fei saw that his internal energy was slightly inferior. He immediately applied the Taiji Sword Technique to the saber technique. If the enemy wanted to fight him head-on, he would draw circles in the air to cut them. No matter what, he would not fight them head-on. Fortunately, their focus was on Guan Yu, so there were not many who attacked Lu Fei.
After a while, the sound of orderly footsteps came from the courtyard. A large group of soldiers rushed in and surrounded them.
