Chapter 24: Thanos Lu Bu, and him who possesses the bearing of a famous general!

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, this boy just turned eighteen this year."

Although Gu Yi was already in his twenties before crossing over,

the age of this body after crossing over was indeed only eighteen.

"Hahahaha, I see you are a man of talent; have your parents or elders given you a courtesy name?"

Learning that Gu Yi was only eighteen this year, Dong Zhuo calculated in his heart that he was only one year older than Dong Bai; the two were simply too suitable!

Therefore, Dong Zhuo intended to ask about Gu Yi's family background.

This appearance was very much like a father-in-law seeing his son-in-law for the first time in his previous life.

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, this boy is all alone, drifting and wandering."

"I have not yet obtained a courtesy name."

Speaking of this, Gu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

In his previous life, he hadn't felt fatherly or motherly love, and in this life, his parents were also both dead.

Hearing this, Old Dong seemed to have thought of something.

He couldn't help but sigh long.

Immediately, he placed his right hand on Gu Yi's shoulder and said:

"From now on, wherever the Xiliang Army is, that is your home."

"There is no need to be too distant with me."

"As for a courtesy name, I am not a very cultured person, so I can't think of any very good ones."

"After returning to Luoyang, I will help you find Cai Bojie and let him take a good courtesy name for you."

Who Cai Bojie was, Gu Yi, who was familiar with this history, naturally knew.

This person was the leader of the Han literary world today, Cai Yong, Cai Bojie.

Of course, compared to Cai Yong himself, his daughter Cai Zhaoji was undoubtedly more famous.

It is worth mentioning that

Cai Yong was one of the few scholars who did not oppose Dong Zhuo.

On the contrary, he and Dong Zhuo had an extraordinary relationship; the two had known each other decades ago.

Historically, after Dong Zhuo died, Cai Yong risked offending Wang Yun to cry bitterly for him, which eventually led to him being executed by Wang Yun.

From this, it can be seen that the friendship between the two could not be explained in a few words.

Seeing Dong Zhuo value Gu Yi so much, the expressions on the faces of the surrounding people were also varied.

After thanking Dong Zhuo,

Gu Yi was about to turn around.

Suddenly, he felt two burning gazes cast from behind.

One of them was nearly two meters tall, wearing Western Sichuan cloud brocade armor, wearing a light white feather crown, and his brows were filled with dignity.

This person looked at Gu Yi with a gaze that carried slight hostility.

The other person had an unremarkable appearance and was a common face that was very easy to be forgotten in a crowd.

This person was always expressionless.

But Gu Yi could clearly feel that this person had been secretly sizing him up.

"Friendly and harmonious" colleague relationships were very important in Gu Yi's view.

So, he immediately turned around and said to the two:

"I presume you two generals are General Lu Bu and General Xu Rong, whom the Prime Minister relies upon?"

The two clearly did not expect Gu Yi to turn around suddenly, nor did they expect Gu Yi to be able to guess their identities all at once.

Therefore, a trace of astonishment flashed across all their faces.

Lu Bu was a bit better.

After all, his recognizability was really too high.

Although that father-killing artifact, the Fangtian Huaji, was not brought to the camp today,

relying on his appearance, it was very easy to identify him.

But Xu Rong was different.

He had a paralyzed face from beginning to end.

Gu Yi was able to guess his identity all at once, which was truly not simple.

As the saying goes, one does not hit a smiling face.

Even if Lu Bu had natural hostility toward Gu Yi because Gu Yi was recommended by Hua Xiong,

at this moment, he couldn't show it.

Xu Rong was simply curious about Gu Yi, and there wasn't much hostility to speak of.

"Hahahaha, Gu Yi, your eyesight is really good."

"These two are indeed the excellent assistants by my side."

"Before I could even introduce them, you were actually able to identify them yourself."

Dong Zhuo, who was on the side, came over with a smile to smooth things over.

Dong Zhuo was also quite shocked that Gu Yi could instantly identify Xu Rong and Lu Bu.

"It is just that the aura of the two generals is too powerful."

"Even if I wanted to not recognize them, I couldn't."

Gu Yi smiled.

Although he joined the Dong Zhuo Army through Hua Xiong's path,

it didn't mean he had to be like the Xiliang direct line and hold a contemptuous attitude toward the Luoyang Imperial Guard and Bingzhou Army factions.

The importance of Xu Rong and Lu Bu to the Dong Zhuo camp was self-evident.

Especially Lu Bu.

If not handled well,

this fellow would likely become a "Thanos (Father) Killer!"

As for Xu Rong, don't look at this old brother who always has a paralyzed face. ===== CHAPTER 25 =====
