Just when Zhang Huang made up his mind to join forces with Tang Zhou of Taiping Road to plot against Taishan Taishou He Ying and rob the county warehouse of grain, Tang Zhou was in the refugee camp in the county, laughing and talking with a rugged-looking man.

I saw that this big man was eight feet tall, broad-shouldered and healthy, and his whole body muscles were tense and full of explosive power.

What an imposing hero!

However, in front of this strong man, Tang Zhou's expression was still the same, and he said with a smile, "I heard that Senior Brother Ma is still in Nanyang a while ago, and I don't want to come to ......Taishan today."

It was appalling that the strong man turned out to be the chief disciple of the thirty-six generous and seventy-two small squares under the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao, Ma Hun and Ma Yuanyi, the status and fame of the Yellow Turban Army of Taiping Dao were immeasurable.

Strong man, no, Ma Hun laughed and said, "Senior brother's news is well-informed. Yes, the senior brother was indeed in Nanyang a few days ago, but a while ago, he had to be summoned by his old man's family, so he went to Julu. By the way, I also reported to the old man about the situation near Nanyang in recent years...... This time I came to Mount Tai, I came to visit Senior Brother Tang. ”

"Look at me?" Tang Zhou's eyelids jumped slightly, and he looked at Ma Hun calmly.

"yes." Ma Hun didn't notice it, sighed slightly and said, "Although the old man has accepted more than 100 apprentices, but for the sake of the great cause, Senior Brother Tang is close to this Mount Tai, so Senior Brother specially came to visit Senior Brother Tang, Senior Brother will not be unwelcome, right?" ”

"Where?" Tang Zhou smiled slightly and said, "Senior brother is worried about junior brother in his heart, that is the blessing of junior brother, junior brother is flattered, how can there be any saying that he is not welcome?" But I don't know how long my brother can stay in Taishan? ”

"Stay for a while." Ma Hun sighed and said in a condensed voice, "This time, the senior brother is here to see the situation of the junior brother, and he will leave later." ”

"So fast?" Tang Zhou was stunned and guessed in surprise, "Isn't Nanyang unstable?" ”

"Not really." Ma Hun shook his head and said, "Nanyang has Mancheng here, and senior brother can rest assured." ”

Tang Zhou nodded, he naturally knew that the Man Cheng in Ma Hun's mouth was referring to Zhang Chun and Zhang Mancheng, the young man who was only about ten years old who had a half-teacher with Ma Hun, after being promoted and taught by Ma Hun, he had faintly become the leader of the Taiping Road in Nanyang, and he could also be called an unobtainable talent.

"Senior brother won't go back to Nanyang?" Tang Zhou's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Nanyang suppresses the princes of Guanzhong in the west, and reaches the Jingxiang wealthy family in the south, which is a place where soldiers must fight. If the senior brother doesn't sit in Nanyang, I'm afraid something is wrong. ”

"It's out of the way." Ma Hun touched his chin and said happily, "Over the years, my senior brother has discovered talents in Nanyang, Yingchuan, and Gepo, and has made great improvements...... With this person and Man Cheng here, Jingbei has no worries. ”

"Hehe, then the junior brother is going to congratulate the senior brother." Tang Zhou smiled sheepishly, and said along with Ma Hun's words, "There are outstanding people in Jingzhou, and there will indeed be many talents. ”

"Isn't it?" Ma Hun nodded with joy on his face, and then said mysteriously, "In addition to Man Cheng and Bo Cai, in fact, the senior brother also found a martial arts wizard, called Peng Tuo, this person can carry the tripod, and has the courage of ten thousand people, but it is a pity that this piece of jade has not been carved, it is just a martial artist, the senior brother thinks so, when he comes back from Luoyang this time, he will polish and polish this person." ”

"Luoyang?" Tang Zhou's eyes changed suddenly.

"That's right!" As if noticing Tang Zhou's strange appearance, Ma Hun nodded and said, "Didn't Senior Brother Shicai say it?" This time, the old man sent me to Luoyang to take root, for the sake of my great cause of Taiping Dao in the future, it is best to plot against some people in Luoyang and obtain their support. ”

Tang Zhou opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.

"Senior Brother Tang, what's wrong with you?" Ma Hun asked in surprise.

"Nothing." Tang Zhouchang exhaled, his expression was as good as ever, and he arched his hand and said, "Since this is the case, Senior Brother wishes Senior Brother success this time!" ”

"Isn't it a success when the 'horse' arrives? Hahaha! Ma Hun laughed happily, but he didn't notice the anxiety in the depths of Tang Zhou's eyes.

[Didn't you think you'd come this far?] ]

After Ma Hun said goodbye, Tang Zhou stood alone, looking at the sky with a thoughtful expression. Half-loud, he muttered, "Luoyang...... It seems that I have to find a way to take a trip to Luoyang......"

Tang Zhou was thinking about it here, and suddenly, his eyes moved slightly. It turned out that he saw Zhang Huang in the distance.

It may be because Zhang Huang openly insisted that he had a fraudulent relationship with Tang Zhou's spell casting in front of the public last time, and the Taiping Dao members who were wrapped in yellow scarves had no good impression of this kid, no, Zhang Huang was surrounded by those big men before he got close to Tang Zhou.

"Tang Immortal Master, Tang Immortal Master." Stopped by a strong man from the Taiping Dao, Zhang Huang couldn't stop beckoning to Tang Zhou.

[Is that funny little ghost?] What did he come to do? ]

Tang Zhou was a little amused in his heart, and the little worries in his heart that arose because of Ma Hun's words also subsided a little, and with a wave of his hand, he smiled and said, "Brothers, let him come over." ”

Those strong men with yellow scarves on their heads didn't want to see Zhang Huang, after all, Zhang Huang had questioned their Taiping Dao mystical and supreme spells, but when Tang Zhou said this, they had no choice but to let them go, but they didn't verbally warn Zhang Huang not to have nothing to do.

"Tang Immortal Master, don't come unharmed." After dealing with the few strong men with yellow scarves on their heads, Zhang Huang came to Tang Zhou and hugged his fists.

In all fairness, Tang Zhou has a very good impression of Zhang Huang, although even he doesn't understand the origin of this favor, maybe this is the so-called fate, it is like a friend at first sight.

"What is the little brother doing? Don't you want to question which way of Tang again? Tang Zhou joked with a smile.

Hearing Tang Zhou's teasing, Zhang Huang's face was full of wry smiles, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "What did Tang Immortal Master say?" Tang Immortal Master's skills are all over the sky, Zhang Huang has already seen it a few days ago, how dare he offend? ”

Looking at Zhang Huang's bitter face, Tang Zhou felt amused in his heart, nodded and said, "The ignorant are not guilty." The little brother knows that he can change his mistakes, and Tang is also quite admirable for this calmness. Speaking of this, he looked Zhang Huang up and down a few times, suddenly frowned, and asked with a strange expression, "Little brother has been performing the aisle technique for the past few days?" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Huang was immediately dumbfounded, looked at Tang Zhou in surprise, and asked, "Tang, Tang Immortal Master, how do you know?" ”

Tang Zhou smiled and said nothing, just said in an admonishing tone, "Dao technique, the technique of stealing the aura of heaven and earth and exorcising ghosts and gods, is not recognized by the Dao of Heaven, so it is better not to use it if the little brother can use it as much as possible...... If you are unlucky, you may be remembered. In the last sentence, Tang Zhou's expression became a little unpredictable.

[Will people still be remembered for using a Taoist technique?] ]

Zhang Huang had an inexplicable expression on his face, but he felt that Tang Zhou's words were somewhat consistent with the words of his father-in-law who taught him Taoism.

"Who's concerned?"

Tang Zhou smiled subtly, shook his head and said, "Don't say it." In time, the little brother will understand. ”

"Tsk!" Zhang Huang subconsciously pursed his lips and muttered a little depressedly, "The most annoying thing is this kind of pretending to be profound, something that can be explained in one or two sentences, if you have to say something, you can't leak it...... Belch? Immortal Master Tang, I didn't mean you. ”

Tang Zhou still looked at Zhang Huang with a smile, but when Zhang Huang said, 'Heavenly Secrets must not be revealed', a strange look flashed in his eyes.

"By the way, the little brother came here today, it won't be just to chat with Tang, right?"

"Oh, yes." After Tang Zhou's reminder, Zhang Huang remembered his original intention, paused, and said in a low voice, "Tang Immortal Master, please don't be surprised, Zhang Huang came here today to make a deal with Tang Immortal Master." ”

Tang Zhou shook his head and said lightly, "Tang is not a businessman, how can he talk about trading?" ”

"Tang Immortal Master don't be in a hurry, and listen to me in detail." As he spoke, Zhang Huang told him that he was going to cooperate with Tang Zhou, plot against Taishan Tai Shou He Ying, and seize the rice grain in the county warehouse.

"What?" Tang Zhou only frowned slightly when he heard this, looked at Zhang Huang with an incredulous expression, and asked in surprise, "Little brother, do you mean that you want to cooperate with Tang to plot against Taishou and seize the county warehouse?" Speaking of this, his face changed slightly, and he said with some displeasure, "What does the little brother think Tang is?!" ”

Seeing that Tang Zhou showed signs of turning his face, Zhang Huang was not in a hurry, and said in a low voice, "Tang Immortal Master must not be angry. Although it seems to be a good official, in fact, the guy secretly sold the grain used to relieve the refugees in the county to the rice merchants of other sides at a discount, and lied to the outside world that the county warehouse was not enough to store grain, instigating the local people to grudge with the refugees, and reaping the profits from it and filling their own pockets. A while ago, Cao Zangjie of Taishan Prison verified that He Ying was corrupt and bent the law, painstakingly collected evidence, and wanted to sue Xuzhou Mansion, but he didn't want to be known by He Ying and was framed and imprisoned. Zang Ba and I joined forces with the Taishan Army to rob Zang Prison Cao, so why should I have a poisonous plan to kill the lives of two innocent people in the Zang family. Also, does Tang Immortal Master know what they are doing in Xishan Fei County? He Ying and his henchman Ma Yan recruited many innocent prisoners in Xishan Fei County to mine iron ore for them, and beat people to death if they were not satisfied. , the grass has not been able to take human life to such a point...... Zhang Huang thought that with a hero as righteous as Tang Immortal, he must not be able to tolerate such a shameless villain! ”

"You know." Tang Zhoule was happy, and after frowning and thinking for a while, he asked in a condensed voice, "Is this really the case?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Huang raised his right hand, raised three fingers, and said solemnly, "Zhang Huang swears to the sky, if I ......."

As soon as he said this, Tang Zhou grabbed Zhang Huang's hand, and under the latter's stunned gaze, he said in a solemn tone, "Boy, Tang consciously fell in love with you, so he warned with kind words: Remember, it's okay to swear, but you can't swear to the sky casually...... Otherwise, the slightest discrepancy will cost you your life! ”

"Huh? Why is that? Zhang Huang asked in amazement.

However, Tang Zhou didn't answer, and after slowly letting go of Zhang Huang's hand, he paced back and forth with his hands behind his back for a few steps, nodded and said after half a sound, "The previous time, you misunderstood that Tang was playing a side door to deceive the people, so you came forward to question, and you can see that you have a righteous spirit in your heart...... It doesn't make sense that this time will deceive me. Since He Ying is really such a wicked person, he was bumped into by Tang, and Tang naturally would not stand idly by. Okay! Tang should do this! ”

"Really?" Zhang Huang's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he said, "The plan is like this, Tang Immortal Master helped me Black Feather Crow kill Taishou He Ying and join the evil party, open a warehouse and release grain, and distribute it to the people and refugees in the city, and the notoriety of this matter, I, Black Feather Crow, am willing to bear it together, and it will never involve Tang Immortal Master and Taiping Dao." ”

"It doesn't matter if you take it down or not...... Tang Zhou looked at Zhang Huang carefully, and suddenly asked, "It's just, what's the benefit to you?" Do you know that if you kill the Taishou and rob the county warehouse, with such a notoriety, your Black Feather Crow will be a first-class thief in the future...... What are the benefits that make it worthwhile? ”

"Benefits?" Zhang Huang blinked and looked at Tang Zhou in bewilderment, and said hesitantly after half a sound, "I want to rescue Zang Ai and Zang Shun ......."

"......" Tang Zhou looked deeply into Zhang Huang's eyes, and said with a strange expression for a long time, "If it weren't for the different positions, Tang would really like to make friends with a loyal person like you." ”

Zhang Huang was very puzzled when he heard this, and asked in surprise, "Isn't Taiping Dao a righteous army that thinks about the interests of the people of the world?" ”

"Really?" Tang Zhou's expression became very indifferent at this moment, but immediately, he seemed to notice the look of consternation and incomprehension on Zhang Huang's face, nodded and smiled, "Yes, little brother is right." ”

Zhang Huang looked at Tang Zhou inexplicably, and he instinctively felt that this Tang Immortal Master with extraordinary skills seemed to be deliberately hiding something. It's a pity that before he had any clue about this idea, Zhang Huang was disturbed by Tang Zhou's words.

"You and I hit it off at first sight, and Tang appreciates you as a person, so there is no need for those red tapes. Tang Mou called you Xiao Huang, you called Tang a big brother, how about it? ”

"Huh?" Zhang Huang couldn't help but feel his heart pound when he heard this. You know, although Zhang Huang can't remember some memories, he also remembers that this big brother Tang Zhou Tang is a pivotal big man in the Taiping Dao, and being able to make friends with this kind of big man is simply a good thing that can be met but not sought.

"Xiao Huang meets Brother Tang." Zhang Huang respectfully bowed his hand towards Tang Zhou.

Tang Zhou helped Zhang Huang up with a smile and said with a smile, "Brother is polite." ”

The two of them glanced at each other, and they both felt that the relationship was one step closer than Fang Cai.

"By the way, Brother Tang, I don't know how many people Taiping Dao has in Taishan?" After a few words, Zhang Huang asked about the strength of Taiping Dao in Mount Tai, after all, he had to deal with Mount Tai's Taishou.

"Taishan has more than 30 brothers in my Dao, what's wrong brother?"

"That's it...... Just more than 30 people? Zhang Huang's eyes widened in astonishment, and the original joy on his face also retreated a little, and he said, "This...... It doesn't seem to have enough people...... Brother Tang doesn't know, He Ying has a lot of minions, there are seven or eight hundred soldiers under Ma Yan alone, not to mention the city guards of Mount Tai, big brother, do you think it's ...... Help? ”

Tang Zhou smiled and said comfortingly, "Brother, don't worry, the eldest brother has his own plans for this matter." When the time comes, the eldest brother guarantees that you will be able to rescue the Zang brothers and get out safely. ”

"That'...... Then please Big Brother. ”

After taking a reassuring pill here in Tang Zhou, Zhang Huang left happily.

Seeing Zhang Huang's back as he left and gradually moved away, Tang Zhou couldn't help but chuckle.

"What a pure and ignorant little fellow. A small Taishan County, I still have to find people in Tang Zhou? Scold! If it weren't for the fear of affecting this game of chess, I would be able to make this county town come to naught in an instant! But then again......"

With a little puzzlement on his face, Tang Zhou's eyebrows furrowed slightly, muttering to himself.

"It's strange, I obviously thought about not having anything to do with this 'chess piece', how can I ...... Why do you want to be close to this person for no reason? Could it be that kid was destined for me in his previous life? ”

Shaking his head, Tang Zhou was puzzled.
