camp。　When　I　reached　it；　I　tried　to　allure　the　soldiers　back　to　my　side　but　only　succeeded　with　a　few。　The　others　were　too　afraid。　I　got　angry　and　engaged　the　interloper；　who　however　worsted　me　time　after　time　and　wounded　me　thrice。〃

〃Who　is　the　warrior？　What　does　he　look　like？〃　asked　Liu　Bei。

〃All　I　know　he　is　a　doughty　fighter；　I　do　not　know　his　name。〃

Thereafter　they　advanced　toward　the　hill　with　Guan　Yu　in　front　and　Liu　Bei　in　rear。　When　they　drew　near；　Zhou　Cang　began　to　abuse　his　enemy；　who　soon　appeared；　mailed　and　armed；　ing　down　the　hill　like　a　tornado。

Suddenly　Liu　Bei　rode　out　waving　his　whip　and　shouting；　〃O　Zhao　Yun；　I　am　here　to　look　for　you！〃

Indeed　the　rider　was　Zhao　Yun。　He　instantly　slipped　out　of　the　saddle　and　bowed　by　the　roadside。

Liu　Bei　dismounted　to　talk　with　him　and　ask　how　he　came　to　be　there。

〃When　I　left　you；　I　had　no　idea　that　Gongsun　Zan　was　a　man　who　would　listen　to　no　reason。　The　result　was　disaster；　and　he　perished　in　the　flames。　Yuan　Shao　invited　me　to　him　several　times；　but　I　thought　too　little　of　him　to　go。　Then　I　wanted　to　go　to　Xuzhou　to　you；　but　you　had　lost　that　place；　and　Guan　Yu　had　gone　over　to　Cao　Cao；　and　you　had　joined　Yuan　Shao。　Several　times　I　thought　of　ing　to　you；　but　I　feared　Yuan　Shao。　So　I　drifted　from　one　place　to　another　with　nowhere　to　rest　till　I　happened　to　e　this　way；　and　Pei　Yuanshao　tried　to　steal　my　horse。　So　I　slew　him　and　took　possession　of　his　camp。　I　heard　Zhang　Fei　was　in　Gucheng　but　thought　it　might　be　only　a　rumor。　And　so　the　days　have　passed　till　this　happy　meeting。〃

Liu　Bei　told　Zhao　Yun　all　that　had　happened　to　him　since　they　parted；　and　so　did　Guan　Yu。

Said　Liu　Bei；　〃The　first　time　I　saw　you；　I　felt　drawn　to　you　and　did　not　want　to
