"Why is she here?" Pang Tong said to himself. Xue Yue, who was sitting on one side, said, "Didn't you let everyone raise food?" Stupid, it must be Meng Huo's grain team there. ”

But Pang Tong always felt that such a thing as transporting grain should not be done by Zhu Rong. When the bronzed woman walked in with a wooden box, Pang Tong got up and said, "Mrs. Meng, it's rare! ”

"Are the King and the Snow Princess alright?"

The corners of Pang Tong's mouth curled, and Xue Yue pursed her lips and frowned.

"How did you get Madame here?"

"It's okay to hear that there is a shortage of food, but the entire grain and grass of the giant tail are all decaying, this kind of thing is too abnormal. So I talked to my husband about it, and it might be good to try something abnormal with abnormal means. Zhu Rong patted the box in his hand.

"Could it be that there's something magical in here?" Pang Tong immediately said.

"The king is really a strange person, he can even guess this kind of thing." Zhu Rong said in surprise.

"The world is full of wonders. What is it? ”

"I can't show it to the king yet. Anyway, this thing can make rotten plants grow and moldy food fresh, and this is not the first time I've done this kind of thing. Zhu Rong said with a smile.

Pang Tong gasped and said, "In order to prevent the spread of food corruption, I didn't burn grain, it's a real blessing!" ”

"Please also ask the king to take me to the giant tail."

The group rushed to Giant Tail overnight and arrived at noon the next day. The guards of the city wall saw that it was their own family token and opened the door. After entering, Ji Ling came on horseback, and saw Pang Tong arching his hand and said, "Why did the king come here?" ”

The soldiers everywhere are in order.

"Let's see if you're defending the city."

"How can an empty city not be well guarded."

Pang Tong didn't look at him again, but said to Zhu Rong on the white war horse on one side: "Is Madam sure?" ”

Zhu Rong said: "It's not clear. ”

Pang Tong nodded slightly.

Zhu Rong and Pang Tongyi went to a few nearby granaries to take a look, the grain was black and green, and all those that had been rotten had to grow hair. Zhu Rong said to Pang Tong: "Please also ask the adults to break everyone up." ”

"Can General Xue and I stay?" Pang Tong asked.

Zhu Rong shook his head impatiently.

"Please, I hope to witness this miracle. Since you believe in me, you should believe in the decision of heaven. I must be chosen by Heaven to offend the gods. Pang Tong pleaded.

Zhu Rong took a breath and said, "Then the king stays, and the princess should move first." ”

Xue Yue snorted coldly and left. She wasn't interested in what Zhu Rong was going to do. It's just that when I heard the princess again, I really felt twisted.

There was no one around, and all the soldiers were standing in the distance. Pang Tong watched Zhu Rong put the box on the ground and open it. Inside, a green bead glowed strangely.

"This!" Pang Tong was stunned and said, "Shenzhu? ”

"A gift from the god of fire." Zhu Rong explained: "All along, only the wife of the patriarch can become a priest and have the right to pray for blessings. All I have to do is tell the beads in my heart, and I will be blessed. ”

Pang Tong took a deep breath and said, "Please start." ”

Zhu Rong nodded, she put the beads on the palm of her hand, stood up straight, and closed her eyes.

It's like a season that is fast. But Pang Tong only waited for half a minute, and Zhu Rong had already opened his eyes. Pang Tong didn't dare to speak, just looked at Zhu Rong.

Zhu Rong nodded at him and said, "Okay, it's up to heaven." ”

The two walked into a granary, and the grain inside turned out to be back to normal, full as if rice grains were about to expand from the inside, and a fragrance filled the lungs.

"It's amazing!" Pang Tong kept admiring. He withdrew from the granary again, facing the east. "What!" He pointed to the forest on the mountain, which should have withered just now, but now it was covered with green leaves, and it had obviously grown much taller.

"What a power this is, everything comes to life."

"It's to thank the god of fire for his blessings, but it doesn't always manifest, and it takes a while to wait every time. Otherwise, Vulcan will not respond to our greedy requests. Zhu Rong said reverently, as if the god of fire was beside him.

"Seventy-seven forty-nine days." Pang Tong suddenly said: "You can use it once every other time." ”

"How is that possible?" Zhu Rong felt that Pang Tong was a little too arrogant. "Your Excellency can't offend the gods with such frivolous words."

Pang Tong smiled lightly: "I can also hear the master talk about the power of this bead." And in addition to this bead, there are other colors that have different powers. ”

Zhu Rong showed an expression of disbelief and looked at the man in front of him blankly.

"Forget it, let's not talk about that. Thank you for coming, otherwise our army would not know what to do. It may take a few years before he can fight Cao Mengde. Pang Tongyi's expression was refreshed. Well, now I smell the battlefield again. If the world is brought into your hands as soon as possible, everything will be peaceful. If there really is a god, then this is the will of the gods. ”

Although after reading everything, he got a satisfactory result, but Pang Tong's mind drifted to several places, one is the mountain god cave in the Watta Mountains, the other is the small valley where the Wasai people originally lived, and the other is the tomb of Xiangyi. He said in his heart: "This green bead has the ability to make everything flourish and even revive. It can be seen that the green bead depicted in the mural seen in the cave that day is this one. But why did it end up in the hands of the Mon? ”

For this question, he asked Zhu Rong when he held a banquet later.

"The power of this divine bead is worshipped. Was it a very early day? ”

"We claim to have been given by the gods hundreds of years ago, but as a hereditary priest, I must tell you the truth, in fact, it has been in the last hundred years. I don't know the specifics, but my grandfather was the first priest who came from the north of Yizhou to Yongchang County in the south, and the Mon people regarded him as a god. He told the Mon people, 'This is the power of the god of fire, and the greedy will kill each other.' We, the descendants, will bear this in mind and will not use the Divine Bead as a gift from God. Only a priest like me can use the green beads. ”

"As a last resort?"

"Of course, we are convinced that if we use the orb casually, we will be punished by heaven."

Pang Tong nodded in relief. It should be that the characters depicted in the cave of the mountain god couldn't get used to seeing the mountain people killing each other for the sake of the divine beads, so they took the sacred beads and came to Nanban. However, on the other hand, after the absence of the Divine Bead, the Wasai tribe also grew vigorously.

People who are indulgent and hardworking will not end well, and people always rely on their own hands to create beauty, he thought.

No one knew about the giant tail, only a part of the elite soldiers who had been selected to guard the door of the granary, and the soldiers outside, including the city walls, thought they were guarding a pile of garbage.

After Pang Tong regained the grain depot, the overall plan began to be active again.

In the early summer of May, Liu Bei was transferred by Cao Cao to Liulicheng, south of Xuchang County, to garrison troops. Strange to say, this is a small city, which was once used to hoard grain during the war, but now it has given Liu Bei an inconspicuous 5,000 horse infantry army, which is called the defense of Xuchang City. But Liu Bei was unhappy in his heart, his dignified king was in such a difficult situation, and he was even sent by Cao Cao to garrison the small city, which was a great insult. But he only knows one thing, not the other.

In Xuchang City, Guan Yu Mansion held a banquet. Originally, Guan Yu wanted to talk to Zhang Fei about Liu Bei's transfer to the outside garrison, and see when he would visit. Unexpectedly, at ten o'clock in the evening of the same day, Cao Cao's Minister of the Interior, Xun Yu, suddenly arrived and sent several gold and silver utensils as a gift. Xun Yu claimed to have come to make friends, in order to serve Wei together in the future. After receiving his gifts, Guan Yu immediately set up a banquet in the hall to set the table, the wine and meat were served, the maids were lined up, and the people present were him, Zhang Fei, and Xun Yu.

Xun Yu raised the wine bottle and said: "I am a guest today, so I should pay homage to the Lord's family first......"

"What's the matter, Lord Xun is the Minister of the Interior, I have to be a military attaché, how can I let you respect first?" Zhang Fei shouted in a rough voice.

Guan Yu raised the bottle and said: "How can we be so clear, we are all rough people." ”

Xun Yu laughed and drank the wine in the glass. After three rounds of drinking, the three began to talk eloquently. Guan Yu said: "The last time my lord came to the mansion, as long as someone came to the mansion, he must prepare wine and food, and don't send any gifts, I don't need that kind of thing." ”

Xun Yu said indifferently: "Yes, yes." He lowered his face with joy, as if he had thought of something, but since he was over fifty years old, he maintained a calm majesty. I heard that General Guan is not even close to women? ”

Guan Yu was stunned, and Zhang Fei was surprised.

"Last time, the king sent a carefully selected lady, and you didn't even look at it, it's really incredible. Unlike General Zhang, who already has a wife and doesn't refuse these flowers and plants, isn't he happy? ”
