Chapter 1 The Three Kingdoms Are Too Difficult
The end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Donglai County, Qingzhou, Changguang County.
Du Xu was woken up by a whining cry, the voice was full of despair, as soon as he woke up, he felt a splitting headache, his whole body was weak, he never thought that it was so difficult to open his eyes.
"Where is this? How is it more than a slum?" Du Xu tried to open his eyes and looked around, thinking in shock in his heart.
He was originally a Taoist priest adopted by the old Taoist priest of the Taoist Temple in the era of the end of the earth, and after the old Taoist priest passed away, he relied on the medical skills inherited by the Taoist temple, looked at the appearance, and mixed well with the half-hung "Wangqi Technique".
Last night, after he made incense in the Taoist temple, he was hit by a meteor outside the sky, and when he woke up, he was shocked by the tragic scene around him, and a bad premonition came to his heart.
"Brother, you're awake, it's great! It's great!" At this time, a slightly familiar child's voice woke him up, it was a girl about five or six years old, with a withered yellow face, red and swollen eyes, and her claws clutching his hand, with a look of surprise on her face.
"Little sister, where is this?" Through the name of the girl just now, Du Xu probably guessed that the two were brother and sister, and after speaking, Du Xu found that his voice was dry, his stomach was cramping, and his body instinctively had only one reaction, that is, hunger.
"Brother, this is Changguang County, Qingzhou, our village was attacked by wild beasts a few days ago, and my father and mother disappeared in order to cover our escape. Speaking of this, tears fell from the red and swollen eyes.
Looking at the poor girl, Du Xu took a deep breath and stroked her dry hair with his other hand, not knowing how to comfort her.
Fortunately, the girl was also strong, and her little nose twitched twice to stop her tears, and rubbed it on Du Xu's rags.
"Brother, after you escaped with me on your back, you met the Yellow Turban Army, and they said that they would have food with them. As she spoke, the girl rubbed her belly, her eyes longing.
"Yellow Turban" Du Xu heard these two words, probably knew what era he was in, even if he was not proficient in history, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Uprising, and then the princes attacked each other, and the Three Kingdoms were established.
For careerists, this is the best of times, but for the common people it is uncomfortable, refugees are like locusts, eating grass and soil, changing children and eating, it can be described as hell on earth.
"Do you know what era it is, how to live?" Du Xu fell into deep thought.
"First of all, this identity is a peasant, not even a scholar from a poor family, and now that he is coerced by a yellow scarf, the imperial court camp has no hope for the time being. "Du Xu understands the attitude of the imperial court towards the Yellow Turban Army, in history, the imperial court army killed the Yellow Turban when it saw it, but it doesn't matter if you are a coerced citizen or not.
In fact, most of these coerced civilians are cannon fodder characters, who have been eliminated many times, and what remains is to be strong and become the official Yellow Turban Army. The predecessor was injured yesterday during the attack on the county seat, and died of hunger.
Thinking of this cruel world, Du Xu felt disgust and hatred, as a young man who grew up under the red flag, he was a little out of place in this era of life like ants.
"Brother, when did you say I could eat, I'm hungry. The girl took La Du Xu's hand and interrupted Du Xu, who was thinking.
"Food, how is it possible?" This was Du Xu's first reaction, just looking at the girl's eager eyes, he still comforted: "Soon, when I rest, let's go and ask, by the way, find out if there is anything to eat." ”
Du Xu barely sat up with a wooden stick in his right hand, this wooden stick was found after he woke up, and there were still some blood stains on it, he guessed that this was the original weapon.
Taking a few deep breaths of air, he silently operated the "Guidance Technique" that Earth Star had cultivated for more than 20 years, and the effect was surprisingly good, and his whole body was refreshed for a while, and he had a little strength.
"What is the principle of this, "Channeling Technique" is so effective. ”
"But after cultivating in the Earth Star for more than 20 years, at most, he will not get sick from all diseases, and his body is strong enough to be against five or six adults. ”
"Is it because the environment is not polluted by modern industry?"
Looking up at the sky, I couldn't figure it out for a while, and I didn't think about it. While running the "Guiding Technique" while examining this body, about thirteen or fourteen years old, he was stabbed in the chest, the wound was not deep, and the blood had already coagulated.
Although Du Xu knows some medical skills, he doesn't have much treatment for wound conditions now, and after dozens of swallowing, suction, and spitting, this injury has little impact.
After a long while, after Du Xu felt that his body was fine, he took the girl's hand, stood up with a wooden stick, and looked around.
Hundreds of similarly ragged refugees sat alone or in groups of two or three, but most of them stared blankly.
Of course, there are also those who have only recently been coerced, there are children's cries, adults' low cries, and the ** of the wounded, or despair, or pain, most of them are numb.
Since he woke up, he has also paid attention to his compatriots around him. Du Xu guessed that most of them joined the Yellow Turban than the patriarch, and most of these people were young and strong. Du Xu also saw a few peasant women who were stronger than him, and the bloodstains on the hoes next to them showed their combat effectiveness, but most of them were numb and could not see hope.
Only recently joined, among them are elderly and children, most of them are in pain and sorrow, and relatively angry.
You must know that the Yellow Turban Uprising has not been long in coming, to prevent the coerced people from escaping, to manage the coerced people separately, there are patrols outside, and the security is relatively better. But after a while, under the encirclement and suppression of the imperial army, no one will take care of it, not to mention the old and weak, and most of the young and strong will starve to death and be killed.
"Now that there are so many young people who have survived, it seems that the yellow turbans will still give out food in the early days. ”
"It's just, I don't know how many days it will be sent once?" Du Xu looked at the people in this coercive camp and speculated, and at the same time whispered to the girl to understand the physical condition of this body, fortunately, she was young and did not suspect anything.
After glancing around, Du Xu pulled his sister Xiaolian and walked towards a tall and strong man with a little girl in the distance.
As for the name of the girl Xiaolian, he also got it from the little girl, and he also knew that the predecessor was called Du Daniu.
They are from Dujia Village outside Changguang County, but the two brothers escaped by wild beasts, and they escaped by luck, as for whether their parents and other people in the village survived, I don't know.
The brothers and sisters who escaped picked wild fruits and vegetables all the way, and yesterday they encountered the Yellow Turban siege outside the county, and when they heard that they had food to eat when they joined the Yellow Turban, they didn't need to be coerced, and the young Du Da Niu automatically joined and became a member of the cannon fodder team.
"It's so easy to deceive, even if you don't get deceived, you will be coerced. ”
"This name is a common man when you hear it in this era. Du Xu complained in his heart, not that he had an opinion on this name, but that using this name had an impact on his plan.
You must know that Dahan values two words, and if he continues to call Du Daniu, it will affect his plan, so he decisively changed his name.
"Xiaolian, remember that your brother's name will be Du Xu in the future. ”
"Why? Du Da Niu is better to listen to. Xiaolian didn't understand, she felt that Du Da Niu was better remembered.
"Do you still want to eat, last night I was in a coma and dreamed of the gods, saying that I could only have food if I changed my name. Du Xu glanced at Xiao Bu and said foolishly.
"Really, I also think Du Xu is better. Xiaolian swallowed her saliva and immediately changed her words.
"Haha......" Du Xu rubbed Xiaolian's hair and laughed, feeling a lot better.
"Brother promises to find you something to eat. ”
"Brother, where are we going to find food?"
"Well, wait for my brother to find someone to ask first, and then look for something to eat. While speaking, Du Xu pulled Xiaolian to the father and daughter not far away.
The man sat on the ground with the little girl in his arms, about twenty-seven years old, his skin was a little dark, his eyes were closed, as if he was recuperating, although he was sitting, he was tall, like a black bear sitting alone, looking down on the territory.
In his arms was a little girl as big as Xiaolian, with fair skin and a very delicate appearance, and her dark eyes looked at Du Xu's two brothers and sisters walking over, revealing a meaningful look.
When Du Xu was ten steps away from the father and daughter, the man frowned, opened his eyes and looked at Du Xu.
Du Xu pulled Xiaolian to stop immediately, because at the moment when the man opened his eyes, there seemed to be an invisible sword light flying over at any time.
"How is it possible, how can there be such an existence in the world?" Feeling this invisible sword momentum, Du Xu's heart was shocked, according to the history of the Three Kingdoms, it is impossible for such a master to appear.
Under the pressure of the tumbling heart, Du Xu smiled, saluted and asked:
"This big brother, excuse me, can I ask a few questions?"
The man stared at Du Xu for more than ten seconds, and only when Du Xu's smile was a little stiff, did he withdraw his gaze.
"What do you want to ask?"
Du Xu paused for a moment, originally he wanted to find someone to understand the situation of the Yellow Turban Barracks. According to his experience in his previous life, he found that this man was the most elite, with a little girl, and with a bit of righteousness, he should have a lot of gains.
But he didn't expect this strong man to be a master he had never seen, he rolled his eyes and saluted the strong man:
"With the skills of the eldest brother, the world is so big, where can't you go, why don't you leave?"
"Where in the world can't I go over?" the man laughed as if he had heard some joke, and the little girl in his arms also burst out laughing.
Du Xu looked at the father and daughter who were smiling happily, embarrassed in his heart, but his face showed doubt.
"Is there anyone more powerful than you, big brother? Saying that, Du Xu hurriedly shook his head and vetoed.
"Haha, it seems that you don't know at all, you are a farmer's child, right?" the man said with a smile.
"That's right, the royal family of this world family controls everything, and it's normal that you don't understand. The man stopped smiling, with a little sarcasm and a little yearning.
