Chapter 11
Liu Bei Rescues Kong Rong At Beihai；
Lu Bu Defeats Cao Cao Near Puyang。
It was one Mi Zhu who said he knew how to defeat Cao Cao utterly。 Mi Zhu came of a wealthy family of merchants in Donghai and trading in Luoyang。 One day traveling homeward from that city in a carriage； he met an exquisitely beautiful lady trudging along the road； who asked him to let her ride。 He stopped and yielded his place to her。 She invited him to share the seat with her。 He mounted； but sat rigidly upright； never even glancing in her direction。 They traveled thus for some miles when she thanked him and alighted。
Just as she left she said； 〃I am the Goddess of Fire from the Southern Land。 I am on my way to execute a decree of the Supreme God to burn your dwelling； but your extreme courtesy has so deeply touched me that I now warn you。 Hasten homeward； remove your valuables； for I must arrive tonight。〃
Thereupon she disappeared。 Mi Zhu hastily finished his journey and； as soon as he arrived； moved everything out of his house。 Sure enough that night a fire started in the kitchen and involved the whole house。 After this he devoted his wealth to relieving the poor and forting the afflicted。 Tao Qian gave him the magistracy office he then held。
