In the Xixia military camp, Cao Zheng had been lying out of bed and walked for ten days since he was beaten.

He went to Li Yunshuai's camp to ask for a meeting.

Li Yun had long guessed that Cao Zheng would come to see him and went out to greet him in person.

"General Cao is in good health. Just tell me if there is anything you want to convey. Why come here in person?"

Seeing that Li Yun came out in person, Cao Zheng hurriedly came forward and bowed, "Cao Zheng came to thank General Li for his life-saving grace at the general last time. General Li, if it weren't for you last time, Cao would have already reported to the underworld."

"General Cao, you are all a family, why bother saying this? But it's really time for you to come. I happened to have something to ask General Cao for help, but I don't know if you would like to General Cao?"

After hearing this, Cao Zheng made a statement on the spot, patted his chest and said, "Cao Zheng's life was rescued by General Li. As long as General Li needs Cao, even if he goes up to the mountain of swords and sea of ​​fire, Cao will never blink."

Li Yun wanted to say this to Cao Zheng, and said with a smile: "General Cao, you'll be polite, let's go in and talk."

As he said that, Li Yun invited Cao Zheng to come in.

Cao Zheng followed Li Yun into the coach camp and sat down with the host and guests.

Li Yun said: "Li hopes that General Cao can join Li's ancient formation. In the formation, General Cao, as a young general in the formation, concentrates on protecting the flag in the center of the formation and does not be cut off, which is a great achievement."

"this……"

Cao Zheng pondered silently.

"Li knows that this is indeed a waste of your talent for General Cao, but General Cao should also know that Wu Tian and the others have set out to find the Golden Rooster Flag. I guess they will find it in the next few days. At that time, General Cao, you want to rely on the centipede flag to fight Wu Tian alone. To put it bluntly, that is to seek death. Li invited General Cao to think that we are all from Xixia, and at this moment, it is a critical moment when our Xixia can dominate the north and even unify the world. General Cao will not affect the entire Xixia because of his personal advancement and retreat."

Li Yun's words were very important, and Cao Zheng remained silent.

After thinking for a long time, he finally sighed.

"Okay, since General Li said that, what else can Cao Zheng say? I am willing to serve under General Li. But relying on me alone, it may be difficult to protect this flag..."

Li Yun slapped his hand and a monk wearing yellow mud came in.

When Cao Zheng saw that it was the ancestor of Blood Sword, he immediately became angry and stood up and pointed at him and shouted, "You bald donkey dare to come back. Last time, I asked you to be bald, but you had to do your best. I left those ten thousand people behind and ran away by myself, causing me to suffer heavy losses. Now the Japanese general doesn't cut off your head, I'm sorry for those dead brothers."

As he said that, Cao Zheng pulled out the sword at his waist and was about to take action.

Li Yun quickly stopped him.

"General Li, why do you stop me?"

Cao Zheng was surprised that Li Yun would actually take action for the Blood Sword Ancestor.

Li Yun looked calm and smiled slightly, "General Cao, I know that the Blood Sword Ancestor did do something that would not be sorry for you before, but now we are in a great enemy, and everything should be based on the interests of Xixia. Can the past be passed by Li for the sake of Li's face?"

Cao Zheng's face was gloomy.

The Blood Sword Ancestor said at this time: "General Cao, I am indeed wrong that day, but I have tried my best. Liang Jun has been prepared for a long time. If I don't leave, I will be dead in the end. I apologize to you here, hoping that you can forget the grievances of the past. We will work together to make achievements for the Xixia Kingdom."

Cao Zheng glanced at the Blood Knife Ancestor and put it away.

When Li Yun saw him put away his knife, he felt relieved.

"General Cao is very wise, and Li admires it very much. This cup is considered to be what Li respects you. In the future, we will work together to destroy Liang State as soon as possible."

Everyone picked up the wine glass and started drinking.

At night, Cao Zheng left happily.

When he walked away, Li Yun looked at the Blood Sword Ancestor, and his eyes suddenly became cold.

"Cao Zheng has already drunk the blood talisman set by this general. In a few days, his consciousness will be slowly taken away and become a mummy who is allowed to be operated by this general."

The Blood Knife Ancestor was shocked and knelt in front of Li Yun: "General Li, I am loyal to you, so you must not turn me into a mummy."

Li Yun helped the Blood Knife Ancestor up and smiled slightly: "Ancestor, don't panic. You are loyal to me. I know very well. I have no blood talisman in your wine. However, if you want to keep an eye on Cao Zheng for me these days, you must not make any mistakes, do you understand?"

The Blood Knife Ancestor nodded.

Two days later, Cao Zheng felt something was wrong with his body, especially his consciousness gradually became uncontrollable.

"Come on, please come!"

The military doctor came in and treated Cao Zheng, but found no disease.

"General Cao, you have nothing to do with your health."

Cao Zheng frowned and said, "I have always felt that my body is uncontrolled recently, especially my consciousness is beginning to blur. How could it be fine?"

The military doctor was silent and said, "According to what the general said, is he accused of being possessed? If so, the general should invite a wizard to come and see it."

Cao Zheng pondered for a while, nodded, and ordered the soldiers to find someone proficient in witchcraft in the military camp.

Soon, an old man was found. Before joining the army, he was a wizard in charge of the sacrifices in Xixia.

The soldier brought the old man to Cao Zheng.

The old man glanced at Cao Zheng's face and was shocked.

Seeing him like this, Cao Zheng frowned: "Old man, do you know anything? Tell me quickly!"

The old man frowned and stared at Cao Zheng for a long time before saying, "I wonder if the general, have you drunk some talismans or something?"

After asking this, Cao Zheng had a bad premonition in his heart. He pondered for a long time and shook his head: "No, if you see anything, just say, don't keep it here."

The old man said, "If I read it correctly, the general is the blood talisman."

Cao Zheng was slightly surprised and stared at the old man.

"You're not reading it wrong?"

The old man said, "General Cao, how dare I lie to you? Judging from your state, it is what I look like after the blood talisman. Those who are infected with the blood talisman will slowly be taken away and eventually become a puppet without thoughts, allowing the poisoner to manipulate until they die."

Cao Zheng was stunned when he heard this.

After a long time, he came to his senses, grabbed the old man, and asked anxiously: "Is there any other way to rescue him?"
