――Hanyang――

Hanyang Stone Beach, which is a very famous wharf on the east side of Jingzhou South County, used to be used by merchants to change boats in the vicinity, but in recent years, natural disasters and man-made disasters have made the nearby population much more depressed than before. But many ship bosses still insist on carrying passengers here to make a living.

And today, this depressed dock has ushered in a great man.

It was a handsome young Confucian with red lips and white teeth, and he was handsome and beautiful. This person wears a green jade crown, wears a Confucian robe with churning green clouds, a jade belt around his waist, and a pair of sword eyebrows are extremely heroic, and what is incredible is that what this Confucian is holding in his hand is not a paper fan, but a jeweled sword, which is absolutely extraordinary at a glance.

This person is the great Han Sword Ru who destroyed the entire Yelang Country with the power of one person a month ago, and the Heavenly Sword is magnificent.

"Here...... It doesn't look like Liangzhou! The young swordsman rubbed his chin suspiciously.

Not far away, a boat boss saw Huihui muttering alone, and he was a little puzzled in his heart, and asked curiously, "Where is this little brother going?" If you cross the river, Xiao Lao'er can take the little brother for a while, and the price is definitely cheap. ”

"That's great." Hearing this, a smile appeared on his face, and he said happily, "The boss of the tired ship is carrying down the river, and I want to go to Mount Tai below." ”

"Tarzan?" The boss of the ship, who thought that he had come to buy and sell, had a stiff smile on his face, looked at the recovery and said, "I said that this little brother, from here on, take a boat, but he can't get to Mount Tai......."

"Huh?" A surprised expression appeared on Huihui's face, and he asked in astonishment, "Isn't this Tianshui?" I've heard that you can take a boat from Tianshui to Mount Tai directly. ”

Hearing this, the boat boss almost didn't come up in one breath and suffocated to death, and was dumbfounded for a while, and then corrected in a strange tone, "Little brother, what you said is right, but this is Hanyang, Hanyang, Nanjun County, Jingzhou." It's thousands of miles away from the Tianshui of Liangzhou you said, how many thousand miles ......"

"What?" Hui's eyes widened in shock and he muttered in disbelief, "Impossible! When I set out from Nishikawa, I kept heading north...... Isn't Liangzhou in the north of Xichuan? In that case, how did I come to Hanyang? ”

"That's right......" The captain of the ship looked up and down with strange eyes, and muttered to himself, God knows how you got here.

"It's troublesome now...... Hui Hui frowned and sighed, and then said, "Then there is the boss of the labor boat who will ...... across the river." His eyes flickered, and he glanced at the north side as if perceptively, and a strange smile appeared on his face, "I'm sorry, I don't need to cross the river for the time being, I'm very sorry." ”

The "......" boat boss is a kind person, so he didn't care when he saw that Huihui suddenly changed his words.

Why did Hui Hui suddenly change his mind, because he noticed a person, a person walking slowly from the northwest.

This man is unusual. It was a good light earth-colored robe, but this person was naked, tied with only a belt, and let the upper half of the robe hang by his side. The fluffy hair at that end. It is a face full of ruthlessness and domineering, and there seems to be a slight red light flashing in a pair of eyes, which makes people shudder. What was striking was the incredibly huge heavy sword on this man's shoulder. A rough visual inspection is more than a zhang long. Among them, the sword blade is more than 20 feet long, and the word 'addendum' is engraved at the bottom, and the pen is strong. The hilt of the sword is about seven feet. The grip is as thick as the waist of an adult man. It's hard to imagine how this bronze sword, which at first glance is made of fine iron, can be put on his shoulder with one hand.

The power of a thousand pounds! A veritable power of a thousand pounds!

"Hey!" Seeing the man, an inscrutable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, holding a sword in his right hand, holding his hands behind his back, and standing indifferently on the path that the man must pass.

Closer, closer, and after a few moments, the man with the giant sword on his shoulder walked straight to Hui Hui as if he hadn't noticed anything, and walked past him less than a foot away.

"Long time no see! …… Lose your ears! Hui Hui said hello with a smile on his face.

The man named Lost Ear suddenly stopped, stood in a straight line with Huihui, and glanced at Huihui with a proud squint in his eyes.

[The big Han sword Confucian, the earth sword loses the ear! ] 】

"It's you." Ear Lost greeted lightly in a lazy and nonchalant tone, and the little finger of his left hand pinched his ear, as if he didn't take the recovery to heart.

Hui Hui didn't care about the rudeness of losing his ears, and said indifferently with a smile, "One of the Jiuli, although you believe in evil witches and sacrifice our people as sacrifices, you won't exterminate them, right?" ”

"Tsk!" Lost ears pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "You, the guy who destroyed the Yelang country, what qualifications do you have to accuse me of things?" ”

Hearing this, Hui Hui frowned and corrected, "I just killed the so-called three thousand warriors of the Yelang clan and destroyed their so-called altar, Yelang people, I didn't commit any crimes!" And you? If the culprit is punished, it will also destroy the entire tribe of one of the nine li and cut off its inheritance, which is definitely not God's original intention! ”

"I knew that you guys would be verbose, so I specially left one old and one young unkilled...... Isn't that a broken inheritance? Lost Ear looked at Hui with almost provocative eyes, his face full of anger was full of hideous color, and said coldly, "If you saw the miserable scene like a bloody hell, if you saw that many of my innocent people were cut out of their hearts and reduced to sacrifice to worship evil witches, you would not say that!" ”

Hearing this, Hui Hui's face froze, and he whispered for a long time, "But even so, you have gone too far...... Heaven has the virtue of a good life! ”

"However......," interrupted Hui Hui's words, and said in a deep voice, "Those who anger the heavens will be destroyed!" Isn't this your duty and mine? ”

"You guy......" seemed to be gentle and elegant, and there was a burst of anger in his eyes.

"Just the big picture, no matter the small things...... If it weren't for God's mercy and not wanting its inheritance to be cut off, it would have been like such treacherous people, who should have been cut off with knives and killed one by one, so as to prevent future troubles! As he spoke, the violent color on his face became even stronger, and he scolded coldly, "The sacrifice of captive our people to worship evil witches, those outsiders can even think of it!" It seems that the previous accumulation of power is not enough to deter those bastards......"

"What do you want to do?!" Hui Hui vaguely heard something from the words of the ear, and asked with a solemn expression.

"Don't worry, not yet." Unexpectedly, the loss of the ear suddenly changed his expression, and after a little thought. He chuckled and said, "You're going to Tarzan?" ”

"Hmm." Hui Hui still seemed a little uneasy, frowned and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"Go to Guangling!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Huihui's eyebrows raised, and his expression became solemn again, "What are you doing in Guangling?" That person, you can't move for a while! ”

"Oh? Really? Losing Ear squinted his eyes and glanced at Fu, and said with a smile, "But." I don't have a clear oracle on my side that I can't touch that little guy...... At the end of the day, it's just your guess! You, and the guy from the fifth palace yuan, you want to raise a tiger for trouble, I don't object, but I don't allow that person to damage my Han foundation! In my opinion, how can the treacherous and evil people be allowed to grow when they are stifled as soon as possible? …… Or rather. Are you going to stop me? ”

"......" saw the provocative look on his face, and he frowned, and with a flick of his thumb, the sword in the scabbard of his right hand showed a sharp blade. But then. I saw him take a deep breath, but he withdrew the sharp blade that showed from the small section back into the scabbard.

"Hey!" Losing his ears laughed, and seemed to raise his feet to leave. Suddenly, the expression on his face changed. The giant sword in his hand slashed through a trajectory and slashed towards the magnificent with the momentum of thunder.

"Boom-"

The heavy slash of the giant sword's 'addendum' seemed to be wrapped in the power of the heavens and the earth. For a time, the wind surged, the wind roared, the earthquake trembled, and the sand and rocks were flying, making it difficult for people to distinguish objects. As if with this one, even the heavens and the earth lost their color.

However, there was no smile on the face of the losing ear, but pouted with regret and disappointment.

"Tsk!"

With the sound of pouting his lips, I saw that in the chaos of the wind blowing up the sand and dust, Hui Hui was still standing in his original position, flat and stable. Looking at the sword in his right hand, it was shocking that he had only used a small section of the blade to show off the scabbard, and he was able to block the incomparably heavy giant sword of the lost ear.

"What do you want to do, Ear Lose?" Standing in the angry wind, his expression was still calm, and the Confucian robe on his body was blown by the strong wind, but his eyes were already full of unswerving.

"Aha!" Losing Ear ignored Huihui's faintly threatening inquiry, his eyes were even more warlike, and the giant sword in his hand danced, slashing towards Huihui with a thunderous momentum.

"Qiang—"

With a loud reprimand, the sword in his hand was finally unsheathed.

Thunder was rolling and torrential rain was pouring down, and the boat bosses near Hanyang Rocky Beach hid in terror in their cabins, staring at the suddenly changing sky. Although the place of lightning and thunder seemed to be a little far away from them, and they would not be implicated by it, the loud thunder and thunder still made the hearts of these ordinary ferrymen tremble.

They would never have imagined that this anomalous celestial phenomenon, which had lasted for half an hour, was actually due to the battle between two great people.

――At the same time, Zhujia Town, Guangling County, in Sun Jian's tent -

"What do you have to do with Taiping Dao?!"

Zhang Huang didn't know that the two big men who were thousands of miles away because he had launched a confrontation far beyond the strength of contemporary martial artists, at this time, his mind was full of Sun Jian's questioning question, and the incomparably powerful aura that slowly penetrated out of Sun Jian's body. The breath pressed his mind and made him nervous.

"Taiping Dao......" Zhang Huang muttered in his mouth. In fact, when he was invited by the Danyang soldier Xu Kun, he felt a little wrong, and even Li Tong, who was prejudiced against Sun Jian, reminded him to be careful, if Zhang Huang hadn't refused, most of the black feather crows would have come with Zhang Huang.

Zhang Huang thought so about this, in terms of their current strength, if Sun Jian really had bad intentions towards them, then, even if they were all black feather crows together, they would obviously be put down by Sun Jian casually, in that case, why bother? Anyway, Zhang Huang didn't feel that he had done anything hurtful, and Sun Jian wouldn't embarrass him.

But when he came here and heard Sun Jian's question, Zhang Huang felt that something was wrong.

[Didn't he notice me by using the Living Talisman Technique next to the pool?] Wouldn't he, he also knows Taoism? ]

Zhang Huang's heart was full of surprise, he originally thought that Sun Jian, who was born as a martial artist, could not understand Taoism, but it was undeniable that he had walked with Sun Jian in the wounded barracks today, if it weren't for Sun Jian to see something from the water of that pool, Zhang Huang really couldn't think of any other explanation.

But when the words came to his mouth, Zhang Huang swallowed it again, after all, his father-in-law had reminded him a thousand times before going down the mountain. Don't use Dao magic outside at will, otherwise you will suffer disaster. Although Zhang Huang is safe and sound so far, it is not good to say what will happen in the future. Besides, Sun Jian is not related to him, how can he tell him all the secrets.

Thinking of this, Zhang Huang shook his head and said, "I don't understand what General Sun said. ”

"......" Sun Jian twisted his eyebrows and didn't speak, just stared at Zhang Huang intently, and the momentum on his body became stronger and stronger. The invisible momentum. Unexpectedly, Zhang Huang seemed to feel that he was carrying hundreds of pounds of weight.

[What a powerful 'coercion'......]

Zhang Huang was secretly surprised in his heart.

The so-called coercion refers to the diffusion of qi to a certain range area outside the body, which can deter everyone in the range, and under normal circumstances, there is no distinction between friend and foe except for the caster, so most of the skills of this martial artist are used in the heads-up of the military generals in front of the battle. Of course, a martial artist who is proficient in this skill can also control the direction and target of coercion with his will, so as not to accidentally injure his allies.

This is a relatively superficial, but very difficult to master martial arts stunt, even Zhang Huang can do it, but it is not easy to use it well. Again. Coercion requires a lot of qi, so in Zhang Huang's opinion, it is completely inferior to another martial arts stunt 'qi drinking' that has the same effect. Qi drinking, this kind of condensation and concentration of gas. The stunt of forming sound waves to confuse the thinking of the target brain by shouting is the 'magic trick' in Zhang Huang's mind, but it is a pity that this trick is not easy to master, and Zhang Huang, who is not taught by an excellent teacher, is still studying it on his own.

A whole cup of tea. Neither of the two in the room spoke, but the atmosphere in the room seemed to be imprisoned, Sun Jian's powerful coercion. Later, even the bones in Zhang Huang's body seemed to be squeaky and crunched under oppression. Don't look at Zhang Huang motionless, that's not his intention, the fundamental reason is that he can't move an inch at all.

Suddenly, that powerful coercion disappeared without a trace, only to see Sun Jian close his eyes and let out a long breath, then opened his eyes again, looked at Zhang Huang with a complicated expression, and said slowly for a long time, "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it...... There is a pool in the house where the wounded soldiers are staying, and the water in the pool suddenly has the effect of healing the wounds today, right? ”

[Sure enough......]

Zhang Huang smiled bitterly in his heart, he originally saw those wounded soldiers wailing miserably because of their injuries, and he felt pity in his heart, so he once again violated his promise to his father-in-law when he went down the mountain, and took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, and used the living talisman technique taught by Tang Zhou when there was no one around, so that the pool of clear water was full of 'raw' anger, but he didn't want to be remembered by Sun Jian because of this.

Seeing that he couldn't hide, Zhang Huang secretly gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "It's right to be dismissed, but it's not a Taiping Dao person!" ”

"Oh?" Sun Jian's expression was unmoved, and he asked lightly, "Sun Mou heard that the Taiping Dao's living talisman magic can turn clear water into a good medicine for all diseases, known as the living dead, flesh and bones...... I don't think this kind of magical magic can be passed on lightly, right? If you weren't a Taiping, how would you know how to perform this thaumaturgy? ”

"It was when I was in Mount Tai the month before that I happened to meet a person in the Taiping Dao, and I was taught by this person." Zhang Huang replied.

"Who?"

"The surname is Tang, as for the name...... It is inconvenient to disclose the position. ”

"......" Sun looked at Zhang Huang intently, and with his ability, he was naturally able to judge the truth of that sentence from Zhang Huang's eyes and heartbeat. After carefully looking at Zhang Huang a few times, Sun knew that Zhang Huang was not lying, and the expression on his face suddenly softened a lot, and he nodded and said, "It's okay...... Just learning this thaumaturgy from those people is your chance, but Sun still has to advise you, don't have anything to do with Taiping Dao...... In fact, even if you admit that you are a Taiping Daoist, it doesn't matter, as long as you listen to Sun's good words and advice, you will never have anything to do with it from now on. ”

[Huh?] ]

Zhang Huang was stunned for a moment, because the meaning revealed by Sun in his words was that he didn't mean to be against him from the beginning.

[Then what do you do with coercion as soon as you come up?] ]

Zhang Huang looked at Sun Jian with a strange expression, muttering in his heart but not daring to ask.

However, Sun Jian seemed to see through Zhang Huang's thoughts, and suddenly laughed and said, "Don't blame! It's all because Demou has praised you in front of Sun several times, especially you, so Sun has just tried it. ”

"......" Where did Zhang Huang expect this kind of thing, he was speechless, and then asked with a wry smile for a long time, "And I don't know General Sun's evaluation?" ”

"Huh." Sun Jian looked at Zhang Huang and nodded, and said with a hearty smile, "What Demou said is true, it is really a rare handsome, and in time, he will become a pillar of the country......" Speaking of this, his words stopped abruptly, and he glanced at Zhang Huang strangely, and said in a deep voice, "But this is only Sun's opinion, it can't be true, you don't want to be complacent with this, you need to know that martial artists practice martial arts, it seems to be against the trend, and if you don't advance, you ......will retreat."

Listening to Sun Jian's chattering and persuasion, Zhang Huang really couldn't cry or laugh, and said in his heart, will I be complacent and empty because of your praise words? What a triumph!

However, Zhang Huang also admitted that Sun Jian's persuasion was indeed out of good intentions, which made Zhang Huang forget the little unhappiness of Fang Cai.

After persuading for a while, Sun Jian still didn't seem to be at ease, and once again shifted the topic to the matter of Taiping Dao.

"What Sun said to you, don't you forget, Taiping Dao heals the people by casting spells, invites people to buy people's hearts, and recruits disciples to preach, which is really ill-intentioned, if you get close to Taiping Dao, this will be the end in the future!" As he spoke, Sun took out a wanted list from the table and put it in front of Zhang Huang.

"It is rumored that Zhang Jiao, a huge deer man, calls himself a 'great sage and good teacher', does not follow the solicitation of the imperial court, invites people to buy people's hearts, and recruits disciples to preach, with ill intentions, and is hereby wanted...... Hiss! Five thousand gold?! ”

Reading the introduction of the 'criminal' on the wanted list, Zhang Huang gasped in shock. You must know that Zang Ba's 2,000 taels of silver wanted warrant is already a high amount, but compared with the 5,000 gold wanted warrant of that great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao, it is simply a small thing.

[It seems that the court of the Han Dynasty is not so ignorant......]

Zhang Huang picked up the wanted warrant and glanced at it a few times with some surprise, and muttered secretly in his heart, because in his memory, Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Taiping Dao, was not known until the eve of the army that the Han court knew that there was such a big man. It's incredible!

At that time, Zhang Huang was thinking, could it be that the Han Dynasty's control of local information was so weak? Or is it that those so-called sages in the DPRK and the Central Committee are all wine bags and rice bags, so that Zhang Jiao has been inviting people to buy people's hearts for nearly ten years, and no one in the DPRK knows about it.

And now that he saw this wanted notice, Zhang Huang was relieved.

That's right, a guy like Zhang Jiao who openly invites people to buy people's hearts among the people, the Han court will not turn a blind eye.

[Great Sage and Mentor Zhang Jiao...... Five thousand gold, obedient, really amazing......]

Secretly sighing in his heart, Zhang Huang's eyes glanced at the portrait on the wanted notice, and suddenly, his complexion changed suddenly, and his eyes were straight, revealing an incredible look.

[This is...... Father-in-law?! (To be continued......)
