Black Mountain, the mountain is steep and dangerous, the ancient road is clear, in the midst of such a majestic mountain, if you want to hide a large army, it can be said that it is a light move, just like the current Zhang Yan troops, since here, no matter how Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou, tries to eliminate these scourges, but they are always helpless.

At this time, Zhang Yan was standing alone in the attic looking at Xiongshan, his eyes revealed a trace of sorrow, and in the hands behind his back, he held a letter tightly.

"Zhang Shuai~~~ You haven't thought about it yet?" There are several generals sitting in the back room at this time, among which the most respected and trusted by Zhang Yan is none other than Huang Long, although this person has selfish intentions for a while, but under Zhang Yan's coercion and temptation, he gradually obeyed, coupled with many years of subordination, he simply stayed by Zhang Yan's side to assist, and generally at this time, it is this person who is the first to speak.

Zhang Yan turned around slowly, still with that incomprehensible look on his face, but everyone knew that in his lazy look, he always had other thoughts.

But at this time, there was a slight confusion in his eyes, and he slowly returned to the hall, sat on the handsome seat and sighed and said, "Since I Zhang Yan was born, there are very few people who admire, and I rely on my own hands to build this foundation, no one has relied on it, but only the master can be regarded as having some kindness to me.

"Zhang Shuai~~~ When you and I were all down, the master finally helped us, although this kindness has been repaid for so many years, but the feelings can't be said to be no, the master sent someone to ask for help this time, if we stand by and watch, how can we get by in the future?" Although Huang Long stood on Zhang Yan once, he still experienced the benefits of Zhang Jiao, and he had some conscience.

As soon as the words fell, a big man on the side immediately retorted and shouted, "Huanglong!! This is what you say, yes, the master used to be kind to you and Zhang Shuai, but over the years, the fire has come and gone, and the brothers have laid such a big foundation for him with flesh and blood, which can be regarded as worthy of him, and now what is the trend of the yellow scarf, everyone should understand that we can't accompany him to die in vain~~~."

This person's eyes are wide open, as huge as a cowbell, the name of ordinary people has long been forgotten, everyone only calls him Li Damu, not only big eyes, but also infinite strength, in the army is also repeatedly feats, to say that the identity can be regarded as equal to Huang Long, but in front of Zhang Yan is not so intimate.

The two opinions suddenly fell into a controversy, and the more senior ones naturally stood on Huanglong's side, but some young people didn't know much about Zhang Jiao, and they hadn't seen his face, so how could they have benefits, and they were not in favor of sending troops to help.

Zhang Yan lazily watched the two sides quarrel, and the two reckless men also stood behind them blankly, for them, eating and drinking was enough, Zhang Yan's order was above all else, so he didn't worry about it.

"Okay, let's not fight, this matter is not trivial, and I have to think about it a little more before making a decision" Zhang Yan saw that everyone was arguing, and his heart was upset, so he just said a word and threw his hand out, leaving only stunned people in the hall.

After leaving the council room, Zhang Yan's depressed mood still did not dissipate, and while thinking about this in his heart, he walked towards the mountain, which has turned around within a radius of dozens of miles since he arrived here, and there are several places with beautiful scenery that he likes very much, and he has to go to relax from time to time.

This time Zhang Yan walked and walked to one of his favorite places, this place is called Menghu Pond, why it is called this name is impossible to verify, but from the yellowing stone tablet to infer that this place has been named for a long time.

Between the ancient pines around, the dark blue pond water ancient well does not wave, like a blue ancient mirror as calm, the surrounding indescribable tranquility, not even a trace of an animal can be seen, this can be regarded as a strange thing in the deep mountains, because there are many wild beasts in the deep mountains, among which there are many fierce ancient beasts, not to mention that there is a water source here.

Zhang Yan stared blankly at the calm pool, which not only reflected her own reflection, but also integrated the surrounding ancient pines into the painting one by one.

I don't know how long it took, just when Zhang Yan was stunned, a woman walked out of the forest, slowly came to his back, and gently put a cloak behind him with both hands.

Before the person arrived, Zhang Yan had already sensed it, but he knew the identity of the person who came, and his heart warmed, so he turned around and smiled, "Why are you here too?" “。

"This place is not as cold as the country towns, the cold wind in the mountains and forests is stronger, and it is still good to have many batches of clothes," the woman replied softly, her voice was like a yellow warbler, which was extremely pleasant and pleasant.

But Zhang Yan was preoccupied, so she just smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay, with my ability, what is this mountain breeze, don't you know me?" “。

If you want to talk about this woman, she met Zhang Yan when she first arrived in Youzhou, and I don't know why such a woman lives in seclusion in the mountains alone, but Zhang Yan knows that there must be a reason, people don't say it, and she is not easy to ask, so she has to visit alone when she is free.

Zhang Yan received Zhang Jiao's letter this time, and the sorrow in her heart was also due to this woman, but it was inconvenient to mention it in front of people.

When the woman heard Zhang Yan boasting and prevaricating again, she just smiled on her face, shook her head and said, "You always look arrogant, but I know the troubles in my heart, is it going to go on the expedition again?" “。

"How do you know?" Zhang Yan was taken aback, although he had a close relationship with her, he had never mentioned military affairs in front of her, these troubles were just hidden in his heart, and he had never inquired, the news in the mountains was closed, and this time the matter was very confidential, why did this woman know, there must be a reason.

The woman smiled slightly, and said softly, "In this Jizhou, I'm afraid there is nothing that can hide from me, especially the first Zhang Jiao of the Yellow Turban, although you used to be the chief sacrificial wine under his account, and the state is handsome, but since you have decided to break away, you must not wade into this troubled water again, otherwise the auspicious will be unpredictable~~~."

"I've never asked about your identity, but today it's so surprising to me that I can't help but wonder if I'm curious about your identity, why do you know so much about Jizhou?"

"I can't tell you this yet, there is only one sentence I can say, I won't do anything to hurt you, and the advice I give you is also good for you, you must listen to me this time~~~."

Zhang Yan was moved in her heart, since a woman can say this, how can she not understand her mind, but there are too many involved, how can she say that she can let go.

"Hey~~~" Zhang Yan sighed, just about to say something, suddenly heard a few laughter in the woods, with the voice, out of the four young people, all of them looked radiant, well-dressed, one of them was still dressed in armor, at a glance he knew that he was a general.

"Who's coming? What's the purpose of sneaking around? Zhang Yan looked at the few people who came out, although their faces were smiling, but the murderous aura in their eyes was faintly visible, and the momentum was compelling, and none of them were mediocre.

"Hehehehe~~~ It's rude to disturb Zhang Shuai, but today's opportunity is rare, it's a pity not to take advantage of this time~~~" A man dressed as a Confucian stepped forward with a smile and said.

Although it was him who spoke, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the general in armor was the leader of several people, and the rest were standing beside him, even the Confucian who spoke.

Zhang Yan's eyes did not leave this person at all, because the dangerous aura coming from his body was the heaviest, and the kind of momentum that had been honed by a hundred battles was not possessed by the other three.

"If my expectations are good, you should be Liu Yu's minions, the people of the Gongsun family, right? Since coming here, he has been staring at me, do you want to come and take my Zhang Yan's head today? ”。

"Zhang Shuai is really a happy person, then I don't say dark words, it is Liaodong Gongsun Zhan, these three are my righteous brothers, Zhang Shuai is a tiger and a troublemaker, since I have arrived in the land of Youzhou, it is our enemy, we naturally have the obligation to eliminate the thief, as for Liu Yu ~~~ hum ~~~" Gongsun Chan sneered twice, although the following words were not said, but others naturally heard his disdain for Liu Yu.

Zhang Yan naturally didn't care whether he was sent by Liu Yu or not, since he came for himself, the conflict between the two sides was inevitable, and he was just thinking about how to protect the women around him at this time.

With a move in his eyes, the Confucian scholar on Gongsun Zhan's side seemed to see through his thoughts, and said with a smile, "I'm waiting for today's opportunity, how can I give Zhang Shuai time to ask for help, brother~~~ Don't delay the time, let's go together~~."

Gongsun Chan nodded, pulled out his sword and shouted, "Surround them, don't tell them to run away!" ”。

The four of them were about a minute, and they rushed towards Zhang Yan, and surrounded the two of them on three sides, southeast and west, and behind Zhang Yan and the woman was Menghu Tan, and there was no way to retreat, so they had to grit their teeth and draw their knives to resist.

As long as he breaks through a gap, he has the confidence to send the woman behind him out, Zhang Yan is extremely confident in his own ability, and in the face of the siege of the four, he did not change his face, and greeted him alone.

Just as he moved, suddenly there was a soft sound behind him, and a figure ghostly crossed by him, Zhang Yan looked startled, only to see that the woman behind him didn't know when, there was already a sharp sword in her hand, the figure was fast and erratic, and before everyone could make a move, she had already jumped up, just to meet the young man dressed in Confucian clothes and another man, and attacked with one enemy and two.

The sword in the woman's hand was as fast as lightning, and the two people who were killed for a while retreated in defeat, but they were busy parrying, Zhang Yan immediately lifted her spirits when she saw it, and she laughed and killed Gongsun Zhan.
