Although Huangfu Song had heard of Xiang Cheng for a long time, this was the first time he had really seen Xiang Cheng himself, and Xiang Cheng was even better than the legendary Wanfu bravery.

Huangfu Song's love for talent has not yet been withdrawn from his belly, but this success has already been killed in front of him less than a hundred zhang away. Therefore, the current Huangfu Song should consider how to protect his own head, rather than whether he can use the Xiang Cheng for his own use.

And the soldiers around Huangfu Song saw Xiang Cheng rushing so arrogantly, and they were annoyed, don't say that you are not appropriate, at this time, it is the king of heaven and Lao Tzu who is coming, and they will also go for a while, after all, the kindness of General Huangfu can not be repaid even if he fights to the death. But sometimes things go out of your own mind, and nothing can be done with a single passion. If it is possible to achieve things with only one blood, I am afraid that Zhang Jiao would have been proclaimed emperor a long time ago, or Chen Sheng and Wu Guang would have been proclaimed emperor at the end of Qin, and there would be nothing to do with the old Liu family.

Therefore, these pro-soldiers rushed towards Xiang Cheng, splashing only a blood mist in the sky. And Xiang Cheng is a big step closer to Huangfu Song.

The corners of Huangfu Song's eyes twitched slightly, no one can really win this success? Seeing that his own soldiers turned into blood gourds one by one, General Huangfu was unspeakably sad in his heart, these people have been with him for nearly ten years, although there are superiors and subordinates, but they are all good brothers who can be entrusted to their backs when they go to the battlefield.

"Enough!" Huangfu Song shouted. Whether it is his own soldiers or the Han army around him, he has never seen his own general so out of shape, and he has never seen his own general lose his temper in the past, but the former Huangfu General is a character who has not changed his color when Mount Tai collapses: "Enough, if you want a certain head, you can take it, but my Han's son is not something you can slaughter so casually!" ”

Xiang Cheng also withdrew his hand when he heard this, but these living soldiers were not allowed: "General, if you retreat quickly, even if you try our last man, we will definitely drag this thief here." After that, he rushed towards Xiang Cheng with blood all over his body.

Xiang Cheng didn't kill the killer again this time, but instead used the halberd to force all the people who rushed up to retreat, shouting: "But Huangfu Yizhen, I'll talk to you and leave." ”

This made Huangfu Song never expect that when he looked around, the Han army was still singing. Recalling the scene just now, General Huangfu felt a little remorse in his heart, the three armies cannot be without a commander for a day, and he just seemed to sacrifice his life for righteousness, but he was going to bury the lives of these 10,000 people. But fortunately, although he was dizzy, Xiang Cheng seemed to be more dizzy than himself, but he only said two words to himself at this moment.

"General Xiang, please speak." This General Xiang concealed his embarrassment for a while, but secondly, he affirmed the mercy of Xiang Cheng's subordinates. But Xiang Cheng didn't care about these titles, and then said: "General Huangfu Gao Yi, can you temporarily suspend the army?" ”

Now although the Han army is fighting anxiously, it is really in an advantageous position, that is, no matter how brave Xiang Cheng is, can it be possible to save all the 350,000 Yellow Turban Army? As soon as Xiang Cheng spoke, whether it was Huangfu Song's personal soldiers or ordinary Han soldiers, they all shouted: "General, no." ”

But Huangfu Song waved his hand to stop everyone and asked, "Why?" ”

"If you can get the Han army to stop, I can go and persuade General Tiangong."

"How to persuade?"

"Dismiss the Yellow Turban!"

This question and answer, Xiang Cheng is not only confident but also confident. And the words "disbanding the yellow scarf" moved veterans like Huangfu Song. Don't say anything else, just the credit. How much credit did it take to disintegrate the entire Yellow Turban Army with his own strength, if it weren't for the fact that the Han Dynasty couldn't reward the king with a different surname, I'm afraid it would not be too much to tear the soil and seal the territory and claim the hegemony on the merit alone.

"Is that true?"

"It's true!"

"Good! If General Xiang can really persuade the thief chief to be killed, I will give up this credit and save the lives of both of you!" ”

As the saying goes, if you cast it with a peach, you will repay it with Qiong Yao. This Huangfu Song is also refreshing, hearing Xiang Cheng's reply, he can also put down this great credit to save the lives of these two people, these three famous generals in the late Han Dynasty are really heroes in the world, which is not to be underestimated.

"It's a deal."

"It's a deal."

Xiang Cheng didn't say much and turned around and left, and Huangfu Song also glanced at the pro-soldier next to him, and the pro-soldier hesitated for a moment and asked softly: "Does the general really want to believe this person?" ”

"What's the use of not believing? Besides, this time I can defeat this rabble, and if Xiang Cheng deceives me, I can win again. Moreover, this person is a hero, and if he says it, he will always count. ”

After listening to Huangfu Song's words, the pro-soldier bowed down and clasped his fists and sang: "No." Then there was no previous hesitation, but he firmly picked up the small hammer and struck it on the golden cymbal.

"Jiyu, this Emperor Fu Yizhen has really withdrawn his troops." Zhang Ning heard the sound of gold, but he raised his head in surprise and said. After all, when Xiang Cheng turned around just now, she said that Huangfu Song would never be at this moment, even if Mingjin was born.

But after hearing this, Xiang Cheng cracked the corners of his mouth slightly, smiled at Zhang Ning dotingly, and said: "General Huangfu can count the famous righteous people, he can trust me, so I can also trust him." ”

"Then what did you think about telling my daddy?" Zhang Ning asked with a wink.

"I haven't thought about this yet, but there must be a way before the car reaches the mountain." Xiang Cheng replied.

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain." Zhang Ning muttered and repeated, but then said with a smile: "I like this sentence." It actually made Xiang Cheng laugh.

As soon as the golden cymbal sounded, the Han army retreated like a tide, and the hearts of those Yellow Turban soldiers who had not died after fighting were filled with a sense of happiness for the rest of their lives, and even some people had fought hard, but at this moment they were ruthlessly planted on this hard and ruthless land, and there was still the blood of enemies or comrades on the ground.

Xiang Cheng rode his horse past and went straight to the camp. Outside the gate of the camp, Gan Ning was looking from afar, and when he saw Xiang Cheng running all the way, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Ji Yu, go and see, General Tiangong and General Rengong are dying!" ”

Xiang Cheng was stunned when he heard this, and was immediately startled, and without waiting for Zhang Ning to get off the horse, he picked her up and rushed towards the big tent with Gan Ning's guidance.

As soon as I entered the big tent, there was a strong smell of herbs, and a few people who looked like medical officers didn't know what was cooking in this big tent. But Zhang Ning saw that the person on the bed was two lines of tears that could no longer be controlled, and when he landed from Xiang Cheng's arms, he took three steps and ran towards Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang in two steps.

"Daddy." Zhang Ning choked with tears, but called softly: "Third uncle." ”

The medical officer who was cooking the medicine turned his head when he heard the sound, and when he saw his young lady coming back, he was about to kneel, but Xiang Cheng waved his hand, signaling them to do something.

After shouting, Zhang Liang on the bed did not move, but Zhang Jiao trembled when he heard this cry, and his face, which was so thin that it was almost skin and bones, turned slightly sideways, as if this movement of turning his head consumed all his strength.

Zhang Ning's heart was even more sour, and he knelt beside the bed with a puff: "Daddy, I'm late to come back." Woooooooo ”

Zhang Jiao exerted all his strength to lift the eyelids that had almost sunken into his eyes, and when he saw the person clearly, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he said in that dry voice: "Ning...... Ning'er is back, it's good to come back, it's good to come back. As he spoke, he wanted to raise his hand, as if he wanted to touch his daughter's black hair, but unfortunately he didn't have the strength to lift his hand, but he couldn't lift it.

Seeing this, Zhang Ning hurriedly grabbed his father's hand, but the crying was even more sad.

The father and daughter were speechless, the other cried, and waited for a moment before opening their horns and saying, "Ning'er, what about Jiyu?" ”

"Good teacher, I'm here." Xiang Cheng hurriedly took two steps forward when he heard this, but he didn't bother with the world of father and daughter just now.

"Also back? It's good to be back, it's good to be back. After saying this, Zhang Jiao slowly closed his eyes. Of course, at this moment, he didn't breathe, but saying these two words seemed to have consumed a lot of his energy, but at the moment he was lying quietly to recover his strength.

"Do you still hold a grudge against me?" Suddenly, Zhang Jiao said abruptly.

This sentence was naturally said to Xiang Cheng, after all, Xiang Cheng took Zhang Ning to find the "Treasure of the King of Chu". But Zhang Jiao knew in his heart that Xiang Cheng had complaints about himself in his heart. Zhang Jiao is kind to Xiang Cheng, and Xiang Cheng is the kind of person who values affection and righteousness, so he didn't say too much to Zhang Jiao.

When Xiang Cheng heard Zhang Jiao's question, he didn't know how to answer for a while. Fortunately, Zhang Jiao didn't think about letting him answer this question, but continued to take care of himself: "I have already summoned Bai Ren back to Guangzong three days ago, I must be able to get here in this moment and a half, and I will talk to you in detail when he arrives." Ahem, ahem. ”

"Daddy, stop talking." Listening to Zhang Jiao's harsh voice, coupled with the coughing sound like hanging glass with her fingernails, Zhang Ning was indescribably distressed, but she couldn't do anything, she could only cry uncontrollably.

Zhang Jiao smiled, his lips could no longer cover his gums, no one knew what this old Taoist priest had gone through, and in just two months, he had changed from a little old man with a red face to a thin person like dry bones. Although Xiang Cheng was not proficient in medicine at all, and even that little bit of medical skills was taught by this rickety old man, Xiang Cheng could see that Zhang Jiao had cancer. Not to mention this disease in the late Han Dynasty, it is also a fatal disease that is difficult to treat in modern times with advanced medicine.

"Report!" It was a herald who ran into the tent in a hurry, but the people in the tent glared at him. There was no other reason, Zhang Jiao, who was originally closing his eyes and recuperating, was shocked by the word "newspaper".

As soon as the herald saw the posture in the tent, cold sweat from fright trickled down his sideburns. Zhang Jiao said at this time: "It's okay...... ......."Otherwise, the herald will be able to scare himself to death."

"Bai Ren and Bai Junshi have gone out of the account."

"Let's ...... Come in......

"No!"

Bai Ren was actually already waiting outside the tent, and when he heard the herald singing "No", he hurriedly entered the camp tent. After seeing Xiang Cheng and Gan Ning, he showed a somewhat unnatural expression.

"The sub-symbol is left behind...... He Yu left ...... Let's get out of here. Zhang Jiao said.

At this time, everyone in the tent naturally couldn't bear, didn't want to, and didn't want to go against Zhang Jiao's intentions, including Zhang Ning, they all quit the tent one by one. There were only three people left in the tent, and none of these three people seemed to have any intention of speaking first, so they waited for the other party to speak first.

In the end, Zhang Jiao laughed twice and said, "I'm old, but I can't compare to you young people." But I made it clear first, otherwise I would not have had a chance to say it later. It seems that Zhang Jiao is very clear about his physical state, waved his hand to stop Xiang Cheng who was about to speak, Zhang Jiao continued: "Ji Yu, the misunderstanding between you and me is nothing more than the 8,000 Ying Chuan Army, I Zhang Jiao asked himself if you treat you well, the baby daughter is worthy of you, and the Yellow Turban soldiers are trained by you, why did you have a dispute with me on these 8,000 people?" ”

Xiang Cheng said when he heard this: "Good teacher, but it's not what you think. After saying this, Xiang Cheng was short of words for a while, and looked at the two people in the tent looking at him, and couldn't help but stubbornly continue: "I was in Yingchuan to save the lives of these 8,000 people, and when I was away, you killed them one by one, but I ended up with a reputation for being untrustworthy. I'm not happy at this time. ”

"What about the pair?"

As soon as he heard Zhang Jiao say about himself, Bai Ren hurriedly wanted to answer, but was stopped by Zhang Jiao. But Zhang Jiao was staring at Xiang Cheng, waiting for his next step.

"Sub-symbols? The energy of Zifu at that time was not so great. That's 8,000 people! Only you can give this order, I can figure it out. So I don't have too many knots for Zifu, but I feel indebted to him. "Anyway, Xiang Chengcheng who should have said what he shouldn't have said just now has already said it in one go, but now he is saying it more and more fluently.

After listening to what Xiang Cheng said, Zhang Jiao smiled and said, "Brothers are brothers, as long as you don't centrifuge, it's good." That's right, I killed those 8,000 people, although you didn't say it, but you must think I was tempting you, right? ”

The old man is the old man, and Xiang Cheng can understand eight or nine points without saying it. Looking at Xiang Cheng's embarrassed appearance, the thin old man smiled, smiling happily like a child: "Heyu, Jiyu, Yu Gong is the master, and you are the minister." Right, right, or not? ”

"Yes."

"Yu private, I am my father-in-law, and you are your son-in-law. Right, right, or not? ”

"Yes."

"Then why should I tempt you?"

After asking this, Xiang Cheng was speechless, according to what Guo Jia said, Zhang Jiao was afraid that he would "be a master of high merit". But this yellow turban is not an ordinary army, they have no goals, they only have faith! These people are gathered together because of the so-called "faith", and this faith is the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao!

Of course, this truth was only understood after Xiang Cheng. After all, in such a background of the Han Dynasty, it was really a coincidence that such a wonderful organization was born. And it is impossible to form such a team.

"I have been immersed in the 'Tao of Medicine' all my life, and I know my body very well. When you went to Youzhou, I contracted this evil disease. And coincidentally, when Zifu came back from Yingchuan, he was seen through by him. Zhang Jiao's eyes were empty, and he was also embarrassed, as if he was talking to Xiang Cheng, and seemed to mutter: "This Yingchuan army can't stay, at least I can't leave it to you, these people are spoiled by Bocai, they are no longer my soldiers of Taiping Dao, but a group of jackals who eat people and don't spit out bones!" Speaking of this, Zhang Jiao's tone became eager: "The first day these 8,000 people came back, they robbed the farmers outside Wei County!" Can't stay, can't stay! cough cough cough cough ......."

Beneath this cough was phlegm mixed with blood sprinkled on the bed and the ground. Xiang Cheng didn't care about being dirty and hurriedly helped Zhang Jiao, but Zhang Jiao waved his hand. Bai Ren next to him wanted to help, but he didn't know where to start, so he had to stand aside in a daze, letting his face wet with tears.

"I can't leave these 8,000 people to you, but Cheng Zhiyuan's Youzhou Army can become your descendant troops." Zhang Jiao took a breath and continued: "I don't have much time, and after I die, you will carry the banner of the yellow scarf." ”

Xiang Cheng didn't answer, but just used his thick palm to help Zhang Jiao smooth his breath.

"Jiyu?" Zhang Jiao couldn't hear Xiang Cheng's voice, so he hurriedly called.

"I'm here."

"Can you promise me?"

"Good teacher, in fact, ......" Xiang Cheng listened to Zhang Jiao's words, but he was even more speechless at the moment.

"You say yes." Zhang Jiaodao.

"Actually......" Xiang Cheng was another actual, and after a moment of silence, he had the courage to say: "I want to disband the Yellow Turban Army." Just these seven short words, in Xiang Cheng's throat, they are like a green peak, and they are stuck in the middle of it. But when Qingfeng took it out, Xiang Cheng felt a sense of relief for no reason.

And Zhang Jiao's reaction was greatly beyond Xiang Cheng's expectations.

Xiang Cheng thought, Zhang Jiao must have been angry when he heard this, and the vomiting of blood was small, and he was afraid that it would be possible to pass all at once.

But Zhang Jiao didn't.

After listening to Xiang Cheng's words, he grinned rarely, and his lips still couldn't cover his teeth: "It's okay, it's okay." Then you will take Ning'er to do what you want to do. If a man stands in heaven and earth, he must achieve great things, don't let down Ning'er. ”

At this moment, Zhang Jiao is no longer the "Tiangong General" who is high in the Yellow Turban Army, but a lonely old man who is looking forward to the return of his children home. Although this old man has worked hard all his life and has not achieved that big thing, it can be regarded as a vigorous walk, and in the end, he is still most concerned about his children.

And Xiang Cheng, a big boy who is still a man, blurred his vision at this moment.

"By the way, this is for you." Zhang Jiao struggled to raise his arms and fumbled under the pillow for a while. When he pulled out his hand, he was holding a book with a yellowed cover, and a book that was not too thick was rarely paper.

Xiang Cheng took it, wiped the corners of his eyes with his cuffs, and looked at it. The words on the cover of this book are blurred, but you can roughly see that there are four words written on it. Looking up at Zhang Jiao, I saw Zhang Jiao smiling at the corner of his mouth and whispering: "Taiping is a technique." ”

At this moment, Xiang Cheng couldn't control himself anymore, and his tears were like a flood that was never mentioned, flooding out. The world in front of him was blurry, and the only silhouette that could be seen was Zhang Jiao half-leaning on the couch and looking at himself, smiling.

After being sad for a moment, Zhang Jiao said again: "Child, I still have a wish to be fulfilled. ”

"You said, as long as I can do it, I will also go to the sword mountain and the sea of fire."

"You can do it." Zhang Jiao continued to smile: "I only have one daughter in my life, can you ...... Can...... Call me 'Father'? In the end, Zhang Jiao's voice became smaller and smaller.

The tears that had been put away from the cost of the project came out of my eyes again.

"Father!! Ahh!!!h ”
