【Liu Bei Joins】

In the camp of the righteous army in Zhuo County, after the victory, the generals from all walks of life held a celebration banquet.

"Hahaha...... Come, I'm Zou to give you a drink, the victory of this war, thanks to everyone's courage to kill the enemy, especially Xuande and Ziping, the two of them made suggestions for this war, and they made great contributions. ”

"General Zou, congratulations together!"

"This time, it is mainly thanks to General Zou's leadership that we have won this time!"

"Congratulations to General Zou!"

At this time, the camp tent was full of laughter and joy, and Liu Bei was the only one immersed in sorrow.

Liu Bei didn't know if he should really participate in this war at this time, the scene of corpses everywhere was vivid, and Chang Sheng's last words lingered in his brain, because of this war, how many people like Chang Sheng died and how many mothers died; how many fathers died; how many husbands died; how many wives died; How many children have died, is this war really a war of justice against evil, the so-called "Yellow Turban Thieves" on the other side are all ordinary people, they didn't want to rebel, it was the court that forced them to rebel, and now the generals of the "thieves" are complacent because they have killed countless ordinary people, and I am actually one of them at this time.

Am I doing something wrong? If it weren't for the strategy I proposed, maybe so many people would not have died, but if I hadn't mentioned it, it would have been everyone here who died, including myself. If you put forward an opinion, you will die, and if you don't put forward an opinion, you will die, hehe, this world has put me in such a dilemma, at this time Liu Bei only felt very depressed.

Liu Bei was never interested in the celebration banquet in the evening, and in the face of other people's toasts, he simply agreed, like this, until the end. Then he returned to his tent listlessly.

In this process, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei always followed Liu Bei, Liu Bei was sitting, they were standing behind Liu Bei, Liu Bei was gone, and they followed behind Liu Bei. Liu Bei saw that these two brothers would never give up, and he was very moved.

"Big brother, you also promised a lot of wine today, then you can rest well, Yide and I will leave first!" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei said after sending Liu Bei back to the camp.

"It's okay to drink, don't worry, you guys stay a little longer, I want to talk to you, now that the battle is over, I have free time!" Liu Bei took out three cups and poured boiling water for each of them.

"Yes, big brother!" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei sat down around the brazier.

"Yun Changyide, you say, should we fight this battle?" Liu Bei combined the five fingers of his hands and bent them outward, suddenly making a bone sound.

"Big brother, born in troubled times, we have to do it as a last resort, I also know that the things that are always alive make you never let go, seeing that the people who died in the war are the people of Limin, I Guan Yu is also unbearable, but this is not our fault, if we must be held responsible, Guan Yu thinks that the root of this bane is in Luoyang, Kyoto. There is a cloud in "Spring and Autumn": "The prosperity of the country is also a blessing for the people to be treated as wounds; Its demise is also its calamity, and the people are the mustard. Now that the state treats the people like this, this is a manifestation of decay, and at this time, it is necessary for people like you, big brother, to stand up and be able to sweep away the evil and rejuvenate the Han family. Guan Yu's face at this time became more and more red under the light of the firelight.

"The second brother is right, although I am a rough person, but I also know that the root cause of this Yellow Turban Rebellion is that there is a problem with the ruler, and this is exactly the need for a benevolent and righteous person like you, who cares about the people, to stand up bravely, and the eldest brother must not waver at this critical juncture."

After listening to the words of the two brothers, Liu Bei pondered for a long time, helplessly left tears, and looked up to the sky and sighed: "The world is like this, there is no choice." ”

"Back then, the Qin Dynasty acted recklessly, oppressed the people, and people's minds changed, and they urgently needed a benevolent and righteous person to stand up and rescue them. At this time, Emperor Gaozu beheaded the White Snake Uprising, which overthrew the tyrannical Qin, exterminated Xiang Yu, and established the Han Dynasty for the people of the world. Guan Yu said this, looked at Liu Bei and said: "Grandpa Gao resolutely stood up when the people needed it, and now, big brother, you are also at this time!" ”

"That's right, Yun Chang said it to my heart!"

"The second brother and the third brother are serious, Grandpa Gao is the son of destiny, how can we compare with it, you can stay here and sleep tonight, it's so cold outside, don't go back!" After Liu Bei finished speaking, he got up and continued: "My bed is quite big, and I have a back!" ”

"Big brother, this ...... Brother better go back to sleep, Yide, I don't know, the little brother is still snoring when he sleeps, and it will affect you when the time comes! ”

"Haha...... Yun Chang speaks interestingly, I snore louder than you, my mother used to say that my snoring is like thunder! ”

"It's okay, I've been very dull lately, I want to talk to you, casually!"

"Then the big brother said so, then I don't care about Lao Zhang, I sleep alone, it's quite boring, it's not good to have someone to chat with me!" Zhang Fei got up and touched his stomach with both hands and said.

"After a while, if you have the opportunity, the eldest brother will find you a mother-in-law, so that you won't be lonely!"

"Haha......" Guan Yu said with a smile: "Since the eldest brother doesn't mind, the younger brother will sleep here!" ”

"Big brother, you can't go back, the sooner the better, when I think of women, my heart is itchy!" Zhang Fei said shyly at this time.

"Okay, big brother promises you!"

......

In this war, the Zhuoxian rebels repelled Zhang Bao's department, and the county guard handed over the merit book to the imperial court, and the imperial court appointed Liu Bei as the county lieutenant of Anxi County, Liu Ziping as the county lieutenant of Pingyuan County, and everyone else was rewarded one by one. Of course, the places that were rewarded were all the places where the Yellow Turban Thieves were hit hard, and they were also the places where the Yellow Turban Thieves used to be the most active, and the meaning of the imperial court was obvious, that is, to let these people who had won military merits go to these places to serve as magistrates, so as to achieve a deterrent effect.

After Liu Bei and others said goodbye to their families and the county commander Sun Zhan, they were ready to go to Anxi County by order, and before leaving, Liu Bei specially visited Zou Jing and asked him about the teacher's situation, because he learned the news a few days ago that the teacher was arrested.

It turned out that when Lu Zhi was fighting with Zhang Jiao's subordinates, Zhang Jiao was the opponent of Lu Zhi, who had experienced a hundred battles, and he was defeated and retreated after losing for a long time. Lu Zhi won consecutive battles, and Zhang Jiao had no choice but to lead the army to retreat to Guangzong County and defend the city. Lu Zhi led his army to surround the county seat of Guangzong, dug trenches, made siege equipment, prepared to attack the city, and took Zhangjiao in one fell swoop. But at this moment, Emperor Liu Hong sent Xiaohuangmen Zuo Feng to Lu Zhi's army to inspect the work, Zuo Feng asked Lu Zhi for a bribe, how could Lu Zhi agree, and categorically rejected the unreasonable request of this rootless person. Zuo Feng didn't get any benefits, so he held a grudge. After Zuo Feng returned to Luoyang, he slandered Emperor Liu Hongjin and said: "The minister sees that the county seat of Guangzong is easy to attack, but Lu Zhi does not move, does he want to wait for God to kill Zhang Jiao?" When Liu Hong learned about it, he was furious, and issued an edict to dismiss Lu Zhi from his post in court and escort him back to Luoyang in a prisoner car.

When Liu Bei learned that the teacher was arrested, he thought about it day and night, and was afraid that the teacher would be killed by a traitor, so he saw Zou Jing at this time and said: "Lord Zou, Liu Bei is about to go to Anxi County, and he is here to say goodbye today." ”

"Congratulations, Xuande, from now on, you are also a member of the official journey, and I will be an official in the same dynasty in the future, haha......" Zou Jing still likes to joke so much.

However, Liu Bei didn't have the heart to joke with him, and prevaricated casually: "Where is it, Lord Zou is serious...... I don't know if Lord Zou knows about the teacher's situation. ”

Zou Jing saw that Liu Bei was originally here for this matter, so he laughed and said: "Your teacher has a student like you, it's really his blessing, don't worry, your teacher is fine." ”

"Really?"

"Well, after your teacher was escorted to Luoyang, the imperial court sent a person named Dong Zhuo to take over Lu Zhi's work in Jizhou to pacify the Yellow Turban Army, but this temporary change of generals was a taboo for soldiers, and this Dong Zhuo was originally born in Xiliang, and the officers and soldiers of the imperial army were all children of the family, how could they obey this Xiliang **, the generals had different thoughts, Dong Zhuo couldn't transfer the people below at all, so as soon as Dong Zhuo took office, he was defeated by Zhang Jiao. But fortunately, Huangfu Song had just pacified Yanzhou, and the imperial court saw that Dong Zhuo was so cowardly, so it issued an edict ordering Huangfu Song to lead his troops to attack. ”

At this time, Zou Jing paused and said with a smile: "But at this moment, guess what, this horn actually died of illness, a person who was god-like in the eyes of his followers, actually died of illness, as soon as the news spread, the thief army's morale was instantly depressed. Then his brother Zhang Liang served as the commander, only to re-invigorate the morale of the army, he then guarded Guangzong, Huangfu Song siege the city, because Zhang Liang's army was elite, failed to succeed, then closed the camp and rested to see the changes. Zhang Liang was really confused and relaxed his vigilance, so Huangfu Song immediately took the night to transfer troops, and rushed into his formation when the rooster crowed, and in this chaotic army, Huangfu Song killed Zhang Liang. ”

"Real and virtual, virtual and real, General Huangfu is really powerful, so what about later?" Liu Bei praised sincerely.

"Later, Huangfu Song continued to go north to conquer Quyang, killed Zhang Bao, and captured more than 100,000 people, and Huangfu Song built the bones of these 100,000 people into a 'Jingguan'."

"It's really a success." After Liu Bei listened, he couldn't help but think of Changsheng again.

"Who said no, but since someone rebelled, someone had to die, it's just a matter of whether you die or I die...... Later, Huangfu Song returned to Luoyang and wrote to the emperor, giving all the credit for pacifying the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou to Lu Zhi. ”

"I see, the teacher is fine." All the evils come from the eunuchs, and Liu Bei has been indirectly killed by the eunuchs many times since he was a child. The death of the father is related to the eunuch, the resignation of the teacher is related to the eunuch, and now the teacher is unjustly imprisoned and related to the eunuch, and the Yellow Turban rebellion is also related to the eunuch, and the ghost of the eunuch has made Liu Bei unforgettable for life.

【Concentrate on Cultivation】

"Tick ...... Tick ...... "The dripping water in the cave can resound through the entire space."

At this time, the Taixuan boy closed his eyes and meditated on the cliff extending out of the entrance of the ovary cave, and the weather at this time had begun to warm up, and the grass and trees under the mountain gradually grew green leaves, and nature had a new vitality.

Taixuan Boy suddenly opened his eyes and muttered to himself, "It's over!"

"Who are you? Where is this? Suddenly, a voice came from behind the Taixuan boy.

"You're awake! You've been asleep for almost six months! Taixuan Boy didn't move, looked into the distance and said: "I am Taixuan Boy, this is Baiyun Mountain Zifang Cave!" ”

"Taixuan boy? Ovary hole? Isn't Zifang Cave a place where the Han Dynasty stayed and why am I here? ”

"Do you know your name?"

"Naturally remember, my name is Su Xue!"

"On that day, you were chased by the Yellow Turban Army, and the carriage you were riding in lost control because of the gallop, and you fell into the abyss, and I rescued you!" Taixuan Boy said: "You sit down, there is no one else here, only me and you!" ”

Su Xue looked at the white-bearded old man with his back to him, and sat down next to him, not far away, his legs drooping, and his hands supporting the rock: "Thank you, save me!" ”

"No thanks!"

"Can you tell me who you are? Use people's names! Su Xue turned her head to look at the Taixuan boy with his eyes closed.

"Haha...... More than 400 years ago, I followed Gaozu to establish the Han Dynasty, and then retired, came to this Baiyun Mountain to concentrate on cultivation, and now I have cultivated into an immortal, if you really want me to use a name, then I am Zhang Liang! Taixuan Boy opened his eyes, stroked his beard and said.

"How can there be such a thing, is there really a god in this world!"

"Naturally, there are, but it's hard for ordinary people to see them!"

"Then why did you save me? Want me to see you again? ”

"Because you're different!"

"What's different about me?"

"This matter is a long story, two hundred years ago, you were the Qingshui fairy on Songshan Mountain, because of a chance to meet Lao Jun, Lao Jun Nian and you have a fate, so he will accept you as a disciple, and call you Taoism and immortal arts to help you grow. But because the stubborn heart is too heavy, after staying in the Taoist temple for two hundred years, you not only escaped from the Taoist temple without permission, and then you came to Songshan, using the Taoist method to help your companion Sang Lingzi cultivate a human form, just as the two of you were about to go down the mountain to the world, everything you did was discovered by Lao Jun, and Lao Jun wanted to beat you back to your original form in order to punish you! ”

"And then?"

"Your companion Sang Lingzi blocked in front of you in order to save you, unfortunately he was beaten by Lao Jun and his vitality was exhausted, in order to save him, you begged Lao Jun to give you another chance, so Lao Jun let you reincarnate in the world and re-cultivate in the world, so as to make up for the crimes you have committed!"

"How can I remedy it?"

"Save the common people, Zhongxing Han Room!"

"Then who is Sang Lingzi you are talking about?"

"It's your junior brother, Liu Bei!"

"Liu Bei? Why should I believe what you say, Lao Jun's mana is boundless, a mere Qingshui fairy escaped from the Taoist temple, he should find out soon, so why did he wait so long to come? ”

"Haha...... Such a smart Qingshui fairy, no wonder the master took the initiative to take you as an apprentice back then...... Not everything has to be said because of it, but I want to ask you, have you lived all these years, haven't you ever encountered something strange that you can't think of an answer? For example, when you were born, it rained inexplicably, and the withered flowers and plants suddenly gave birth to green shoots, and you were unconscious for no reason when you were fourteen years old, and then because a Taoist priest gave you a sip of Songshan water, you suddenly woke up...... Wait, have you ever thought about why it always happens to you? ”

Su Xue suddenly felt very puzzled about the person in front of her at this time, why he knew so much about some things about himself, as if his every move was under her gaze.

"You...... Seeing that you are wearing a Taoist robe, you are also a member of the Dao Sect, so what is the relationship between you and Daoist Zuo Ci? ”

"I'm Zuo Ci's master!"

"I see, then why did you bring me here?"

"Need your help!"

"How can I, a weak woman, help you?"

"Do you still remember that in Songshan, when you and Liu Bei went to pick dates, Liu Bei fell unconscious for no reason?"

"Naturally, he remembered that he had only become like this after he saw a large area of ruins behind the woods!"

"That ruin is the trace of the karmic demon landing in the world, I need your help to destroy the karmic demon!"

"Who is the Karma Demon?"

"The karmic demon is the demon obstacle in the world, it is formed by the accumulation of resentment in the hearts of the people in the world, and now the people are living in hardship, disasters are continuous, wars, famines, diseases, labor, oppression and other events have overwhelmed the people, and the people are full of complaints, but they dare to be angry but dare not speak, and the resentment in their hearts has accumulated all year round, and they have gathered out of the karmic demons."

"What does this have to do with Liu Bei?"

"Two hundred years ago, the karmic demon landed in the world, fell in Songshan, and suddenly Songshan was surrounded by firelight, as a mulberry Lingzi was only a mulberry tree at that time, he had nowhere to escape in the face of karmic demons, fortunately Lao Jun arrived in time, launched a heavy rain, and collected the karmic demons in the alchemy furnace!"

"Since Lao Jun has subdued the karmic demon, let's destroy it directly, wouldn't it be a hundred!"

"Karma is gathered by the resentment of the world, as long as the resentment in the world is not resolved for a day, the karma will not dissipate for a day, so the method of eliminating the karmic demon ultimately depends on man."

"Understood, do you want me to go down now?"

"In the final analysis, things in the world have to be led by men!" Taixuan Tongzi stretched out his hand to Su Xue, he gently waved the dust, and then conjured up a book, he handed this book to Su Xue: "This is the book that Lao Jun asked me to transfer to you, he hopes that you will have a good life to cultivate, concentrate on learning Taoism, and when the time is ripe, I hope you will go down the mountain to help Liu Bei, and save the common people with him, and rejuvenate the Han Dynasty!" ”

Su Xue took the book suspiciously: "Taoism is natural!" So what should I do if there are things I don't understand? ”

"I'll teach you!"

Su Xue took the book and flipped through it roughly, and suddenly felt that the content in it had a sense of déjà vu, but she couldn't remember when she had read it. Wouldn't it be better to be able to concentrate on cultivating here, and to help Xuande when the time is ripe, at this time, Su Xue knelt down to Taixuan Boy and said, "Disciple Su Xue, meet Master!" ”

"Haha...... After that, please hurry up, I can't afford such a big gift! Taixuan Tongzi got up and said: "In terms of seniority, I am just your senior brother, you will still call me senior brother in the future!" ”

"This ......" Su Xue got up and said in disbelief: "Su Xue has seen Senior Brother!" ”

Taixuan Boy nodded.

"By the way, senior brother, where did the lilacs on the carriage go before, she still ...... Is she still alive? ”

"She's with the young man who drove the carriage!"

"Poof...... I can't believe she's met that person too! Su Xue covered her mouth and smiled.
