Chapter Seventy-Five: The Yellow Turban Army
"What are you going to do?" Yu Changan was puzzled: "Ever since you came to the Land of Chaos, you have always been particularly interested in the necromancer, what, can you use demon magic to bring the necromantic back to life?"
"I can really bring them back from the dead. Zhang Jiao nodded heavily.
"What?" Yu Changan looked at Zhang Jiao with wide eyes, not only him, but even Lu Bu and Ao Lie also looked at Zhang Jiao with a curious expression.
Lu Bu had some contact with Zhang Jiao before his death, he walked up to Zhang Jiao and asked, "Master Zhang, if you can bring the dead back to life, then it is not demonic art, but divine art." ”
Ram Shu also looked at Zhang Jiao suspiciously, as if he was thinking about something, but in the end he just shook his head helplessly, obviously he couldn't figure out what Zhang Jiao was going to do.
"Let me do it. Zhang Jiao insisted: "These dead spirits will soon be resurrected. ”
"That'...... You try it. Yu Changan pointed to the corpse of the dead in the depression and said.
There were about more than 2,000 corpses of undead souls in the depression, and Yu Changan did not pay special attention to what Zhang Jiao was going to do, but was engrossed in observing the surrounding situation. Before entering the Nameless Valley, he had only learned about the inside of the Black Flame Tribe, but he hadn't learned much about what was going on in the valley.
Now it seems that something has happened here in advance, either there is infighting among the Black Flame tribe, or other invaders have rushed into the valley.
"There's a better chance of infighting. Looking at the ram Shu who was walking beside him and also observing the situation, Yu Changan spoke.
"It's hard to say, although there are all necromantic corpses here, they are not necessarily all from the Black Flame Tribe, and if the other group of forces are also necromancers, it is not unreasonable. The ram shook his head.
When the two of them were analyzing the situation here, Zhang Jiao in the distance had already arranged a large magic circle in the depression, only to see that he was holding a sword in his right hand and a magic talisman in his left hand, and after reciting an awkward mantra, a thunderbolt suddenly flashed in the sky, and then a thick thunder fell from the sky, and the strange thing was that the thunder fell straight on Zhang Jiao's body, and accurately slashed at his raised left hand.
"This is?" Yu Changan pointed at Zhang Jiao: "Do you want us to perform a bare hand thunder catch?"
"Zhang Tianshi had extremely high attainments in Dao art back then......" Lu Bu looked at Zhang Jiao seriously, but he was stunned before he finished speaking.
Zhang Jiao, who was in the depression, was struck by a thunderbolt, but instead walked back and forth between the corpses of the dead like a vegetable farmer, his left hand constantly flipping, as if he was sowing something.
And when he walked by, the corpses of the necromancers on the ground stood up one after another, and instead of getting up lifelessly, every necromancer who stood up opened their eyes, and there was a bit of agility in their eyes!
"Is this okay?" Yu Changan's mouth was open, and he rubbed his eyes vigorously, and finally he saw it more realistically, those dead spirits not only really came back from the dead, but also every "live" dead spirit was very flexible, if it weren't for the extremely heavy cold aura on their bodies, some people would believe that they were living people.
It didn't take long for more than 2,000 undead spirits to "come back to life", and soon they all gathered around Zhang Jiao, and each necromancer's eyes were extremely complicated when they looked at Zhang Jiao, as if they were reunited after a long absence.
"Everyone, it's been a long time. Looking at the undead spirits gathered around him, Zhang Jiao said slowly.
Yu Changan found that Zhang Jiao's voice was trembling, and even his eyes seemed to be ruddy.
"Heavenly Master!"
"Master!"
After a short period of confusion, all the undead fell down in front of Zhang Jiao, they shouted different names, but they were obviously shouting to Zhang Jiao.
Zhang Jiao stretched out his hand and said slowly: "Everyone get up, the Taiping Sect is no longer here, don't call me the sect leader anymore." ”
After some chaos, these "resurrected" necromancers finally stabilized again, but their eyes were very excited when they looked at Zhang Jiao, and even Yu Changan saw a frenzy in the eyes of these necromancers.
"What's going on?" Yu Changan looked at the situation in front of him in a daze, and asked Lu Bu beside him.
Lu Bu frowned and thought for a while, and guessed, "Could it be that Zhang Jiao used demonic magic to resurrect these dead spirits and injected them with the memories of the previous Yellow Turban Army?"
"The Yellow Turbans?"
"The Yellow Turban Army is the team that Zhang Jiao pulled up when he rebelled before, although he founded the Taiping Sect, but when they started the incident, they were called the Yellow Turban Army because everyone wore a yellow scarf. Lu Bu explained: "The Yellow Turban Army really made a lot of waves back then, and it can be said that they gave the most fatal blow to the Han Dynasty. ”
Yu Chang'an had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly remembered the special features of Zhang Jiao. Although Zhang Jiao is a heroic soul, he is not a heroic soul summoned by himself on the bank of the Huangquan River, and the reason why Xie Bi'an took the initiative to send Zhang Jiao to him was because he received a task that required the reincarnation of 500,000 yin souls.
The 500,000 Yin Spirits were all possessed by Zhang Jiao's body at that time, and Zhang Jiao had such a terrifying "amount of food" because of this, and he needed to directly consume Xuanjing every day to maintain his life.
It's just that Yu Changan never took this matter to heart before this, and even he always felt that this was a joke Xie Bi'an made with himself, the so-called 500,000 ghosts were just a gimmick, and the ultimate purpose was to cover up the fact that Zhang Jiao had a "large amount of food".
Now it seems that he really underestimated Zhang Jiao's ability, and also somewhat ignored the seriousness of what he did. Although Xie Bi'an occasionally joked with himself, he never had the slightest sense of joke when arranging the task of leading the envoy.
Facts have proved that all the tasks arranged by Xie Bi'an are real, and it is obvious that the task of the 500,000 Yin Souls has always been engraved by Zhang Jiao in his heart, it can be thought that he has been planning this matter since he came to Yu Chang'an's side, and he has been constantly preparing in order to complete the task.
Thinking of the excitement when Zhang Jiao first came to the Land of Chaos, and the fanatical attitude when he mentioned again and again that he was going to fight the necromancer, Yu Changan completely understood what he was for.
While the more than 2,000 "necromancers" were pacified, Yu Changan came to Zhang Jiao's side and asked, "Zhang Jiao, were these necromancers resurrected by you using demonic arts?" Or did you do something else?"
Zhang Jiao smiled bitterly and said softly: "They are not resurrected by me, those necromancers are indeed dead, I just borrowed the corpses of the necromancers so that some of the yin spirits in my body can be reincarnated." ”
Hearing this answer, the speculation in Yu Chang'an's heart finally came to an end, Zhang Jiao did these things with the 500,000 Yin Souls on his body.
"Reincarnation?" Yu Changan grasped the point, looked at the Yellow Turban soldiers in front of him who borrowed the "corpse" to resurrect their souls, and continued to ask: "Are they reincarnated in this way?"
"Yes, as long as the 500,000 Yin Souls in my body are revived by borrowing the body of the necromancer, they will be reincarnated. Zhang Jiao nodded.
"Then what are you going to do next, let them fend for themselves, or do you want to take care of their lives after that?" Yu Changan asked directly: "Maybe you will be a little unhappy when I say this now, but I am a businessman after all, if you want to continue to be responsible for them, we just need to settle the accounts." ”
"They...... He can only live another year after returning to this world. Zhang Jiao said with some embarrassment, he could understand what Yu Changan meant, Yu Changan would not exclude these Yellow Turban soldiers from following their team, but some things were actually difficult to explain clearly.
Zhang Jiao was a rebel after all, and he deeply experienced the real gap between the rabble and the elite division, and the reason why hundreds of thousands of cultists at the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion were wiped out in a short period of time was because they were just a ragtag army supported by anger alone, and they were quickly defeated in the face of the regular army of the Han Dynasty.
During the time he followed Yu Changan, Zhang Jiao could see that this young man who looked like he had no heart on the outside actually had great ambitions, which can be seen from Yu Changan's disdain to compete with those so-called younger generations.
Yu Changan's current goal is already to fight in the Metaverse, and he may even be thinking about establishing his own wealthy family. Because of this, Yu Changan can see many things very thoroughly, and he also understands it very clearly.
The reason why Zhang Jiao mentioned that these resurrected Yellow Turban soldiers only had one year to live was because it was difficult for them to be trained into elite divisions, after all, even if they had experienced a hundred battles in one year and became a division of a hundred battles, what could they do, they would disappear after a year, and the energy and resources invested in them in the past year would be wasted.
And if it was just to let them follow Yu Changan as cannon fodder troops, Zhang Jiao couldn't bear it, or he refused this from the bottom of his heart.
Seeing that Zhang Jiao fell silent immediately after saying the last sentence, Yu Changan did not rush to urge, but patiently walked into the Yellow Turban Army team to check on these Yellow Turban Army soldiers who had just been resurrected.
After advancing to the Yellow Rank Cultivator, Yu Changan could now clearly judge the strength of a cultivator based on the fluctuation of his breath, and he soon discovered that these Yellow Turban Army soldiers all had a strength comparable to that of an Orange-Order Xuanshi, which was already a good combat force, and you must know that the Liu Family's Black Feather Army was only a Red Rank Five-Fold Xuanshi.
Yu Changan didn't understand the meaning of Zhang Jiao's words, these Yellow Turban soldiers only have one year to live, which means that they actually don't have much training value. From a business point of view, investing resources in them is not a rational choice.
After walking out of the team and returning to Zhang Jiao's side, Zhang Jiao, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Boss, I'll discuss something with you." ”
