After learning the location of the treasure, Wang Xu was not in a hurry, so he stayed in this Anhui city, and took a group of people around sightseeing all day long, doing nothing. However, Yan Tiantian urged him to hurry up, as if he was extremely worried that the treasure would be dug up by others. However, Wang Xu didn't bother to pay attention to her, anyway, he had already said that if Yan Ming wanted to follow, then he would have to listen to him. As for the problem of the treasure being dug up, he was not too worried, if it was really discovered, it would be long gone. It is impossible to be so unlucky, you have to go, and others just want to go.

And after a few days of contact, Yan Huo and Yan Mu also vaguely saw something, so they were also improving their relationship with Wang Xu. After all, the two of them can get along well in the Yan family, and they become close servants because of the trust they get, and their heads are not born to eat. Xu Shengdianwei is also a righteous man, so seeing that both of them put down their figures, they also revealed the events of that day, and they got along well. As for Wang Xu, he didn't care about it, speaking of which, he was the culprit who caused the conflict between several people, where did he care about these things.

But after a few days, Yan Huo and Yan Mu gradually became a little anxious, urging Yan Ming to return to Hebei from time to time. At first, Yan Ming talked about him left and right, trying his best to prevaricate the past, until he was urged to become impatient. Only then did he say something psychologically to the two: "I'm not going back, you guys go first!" Bring a letter to my father and eldest brother, and I'll be back on my own in a few months! ”

These words made the two of them scared half to death on the spot, and they cried and pleaded for a long time. Although Yan Ming couldn't bear it, he explained to the two of them in a gentle tone, but he still refused to go back. In the end, he persuaded the two of them, and helped the two of them think of several ways to go back to the business. It made Wang Xu and the three of them on the side cry and laugh!

But in the end, no one persuaded anyone, and neither side refused to back down. However, Yan Huo and Yan Mu are still at a disadvantage, and if Yan Ming doesn't go back, they can't help it, so they can only keep sighing. But Yan Ming is also not happy, there are two "flies" whispering in his ears all the time, and no one can stand it.

It wasn't until seven days later, when Wang Xu visited the lakes and mountains near Anhui City and decided to set off, that Yan Ming suddenly thought of a way. first pretended to be reluctant to promise Yan Huo and Yan Mu to go back, and took the initiative to pack up. But before dawn, he suddenly secretly ran to wake up Wang Xu with his burden, and then, of course, he fled at night.

However, when Dian Wei and Xu Sheng, who were awakened one after another, saw Yan Ming, who had faded away from some disappearance and was dressed in women's clothes. With Xu Sheng's concentration and Dian Wei's thick lines, it took a long time to come back to his senses. In fact, don't talk about them, even Wang Xu was greatly shocked when he first saw it, and the only word that flashed in his mind was - thousand-year calamity! Faintly, he regretted letting Yan Ming change into women's clothes, which was too eye-catching!

But since it had been changed, he didn't say anything, and quietly rushed to the east gate with the three of them. It's a pity that it's a little strange that the gate of this Anhui city is closed? And when they arrived, it was not yet time to open the gates. This made Wang Xu puzzled for a while, generally speaking, except for remote areas, this kind of inland city will not close the city gate unless it faces war or a lot of bandits, and only the soldiers on duty will guard it.

Fortunately, it didn't take long to wait, and at about six o'clock, the gates opened. And there is only more than 100 miles from Wancheng to Shu County, and it is a direct official road, so a few people ride fast horses, and it is only half a day's journey to arrive. But the doubts in Wang Xu's heart were even worse, because the closer he got to Shu County, the more soldiers of the county government encountered on the official road, and they all marched in a hurry, as if something big had happened. This is related to the closure of the city gate in Anhui City, and Wang Xu faintly feels that something may have happened to Lujiang.

Not only did he feel this way, Xu Sheng was also very puzzled, and as he approached Shu County, he saw teams of county soldiers rushing to the county seat. Finally, I couldn't help but ask, "Lord, have you noticed that something is wrong?" ”

"You mean the soldiers who are constantly gathering?" Wang Xu smiled and replied.

"Hmm!" Nodding, Xu Sheng frowned and pondered for a long time before he hesitated: "I think there should be a war, otherwise it would be impossible to gather on such a large scale." But the Yellow Turban Rebellion has been put down, where did the war come from? Moreover, the power of Yangzhou Yellow Turban is already very weak, and after it was flattened last year, coupled with strict investigations in various places, it is impossible to form a scale. What's more, the northern part of Yangzhou has not been affected by the Yellow Turban at all, and it can barely make sense if it is Wujun. ”

Hearing this, Yan Ming on the side suddenly interjected: "Could it be the yellow scarf that flowed over?" ”

"Impossible!" Wang Xu shook his head and retorted affirmatively: "I know the information of the Yellow Turban very well, and the Yangzhou Yellow Turban was only 10,000 people at the peak of its heyday, and it was wiped out by the county governments of various places. Even if there were the remnants of that kind of die-hard elements, who escaped search in various places and fled to the territory of Lujiang, it would not be possible to cause such a big movement. ”

As he spoke, Wang Xu stretched out his hand and pointed to the county soldiers who were hurrying in the distance and said, "I have made a cursory observation along the way, and the number of people I just encountered has exceeded a thousand. So, I'm sure it's not about pacifying small forces, but about large-scale wars. ”

"And what do you think could be the reason?" Yan Ming asked suspiciously.

Wang Xu smiled, but did not rush to reply, but looked at Xu Sheng and Dian Wei. "Wen Xiang, Dian Wei! Remember, if you can't think of an answer from the front, then rule out all the impossible, and the final conclusion, no matter how incredible, must be close to the truth. Although few people can do a complete elimination, on the battlefield, whether you can guess a rough idea will determine the fate of you and your subordinates! ”

Hearing this, Dian Wei fell into deep thought, and Xu Sheng solemnly replied: "Thank you for the teachings of the lord!" ”

"Then tell me now why these soldiers gathered on a large scale?"

This time, Xu Sheng only pondered slightly, and then smiled calmly: "Since it is not a large-scale yellow scarf, and it cannot be a small-scale bandit, plus it is deep in the interior here, then the only possibility is a large-scale rebellion." However, it is not yet possible to determine what kind of people rebelled. ”

"Huh! The children can be taught! Smiling with satisfaction, Wang Xu looked back at Shuxian Chengchi, which gradually appeared in the field of vision, and said lightly: "Let's go!" This kind of thing can't be hidden, as long as you go into the city and inquire, you will know why. ”

"Drive! ......After saying that, Wang Xu had already waved his horsewhip abruptly and galloped towards Shu County.

A group of four people arrived outside the west gate of Shu County after a while, but unexpectedly, Shu County had been placed under martial law, prohibiting anyone without identification from entering with a sword. Fortunately, when Yan Ming traveled, his father gave him the Yan family's access documents, and he brought them with him smartly, so that he could sneak into the city.

But before Wang Xu could rejoice that he wisely brought Yan Ming with him, he was attracted by the huge school field next to the city wall to the east. It's not that there is anything special about the barracks and school, but that there are not only countless soldiers who are busy there at this moment, but also many young men who are dressed plainly.

As Wang Xu walked over, their group of people immediately attracted everyone's attention, especially Yan Ming's beauty. However, when they saw that the four of them were all brightly dressed and holding swords, they all thought they were children of wealthy families, but they quickly looked away and didn't dare to look more. And Dian Wei, who was tall and carrying an ice and fire halberd, was even more shocked by many people.

Looking at the long queue in the crowd of onlookers, Dian Wei couldn't help but ask: "Boss, this should be recruiting!" ”

"Hmm!" Wang Xu nodded, and was about to find someone to ask what the situation was, but an unfamiliar voice suddenly came from beside him. "Do you want to join the army?"

Hearing this, Wang Xu looked back and saw a tall man a meter away from him smiling at him. Seeing his thick eyebrows and big eyes, quite manly, Wang Xu couldn't help but smile politely: "No, we just take a casual look, but I don't know what happened?" Such a large-scale recruitment? ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, the man couldn't help but glance at Wang Xu and the others carefully, but he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, so he deliberately ignored Yan Ming. After a while, he smiled and continued: "Presumably a few of them are not from this county!" ”

"Huh! Brother Tai is right, we just traveled to Yangzhou, so we happened to pass by here. ”

Hearing this, the man suddenly laughed heartily: "I didn't expect it to be a distant guest, how about it, the scenery of our Yangzhou is not bad!" As he spoke, he arched his hand and said, "Under Zheng Bao!" I don't know what to call a few people? ”

"In Xia Wang Ziyang!" After speaking, Wang Xu suddenly felt that the name Zheng Bao was a little familiar, as if he had seen this name when he watched the Three Kingdoms before. But for a while, he couldn't remember who it was, but because of Cai Yang, who he didn't recognize last time, he secretly paid attention to it at the moment.

Seeing that Wang Xu opened his mouth, Xu Sheng and Dian Wei also bowed their hands one after another: "Under Xu Sheng!" "A certain Dianwei!"

This Zheng Bao is really quite familiar, and after hearing the names of the three people, he immediately said enthusiastically: "You don't know, a large-scale rebellion broke out at the junction of our Lujiang River and Jiangxia County in Jingzhou. At present, the rebels have conquered Qichun and Xiapheasant in the east of Jiangxia, as well as the three counties of Xunyang in the westernmost part of our Lujiang County, and it is said that they are preparing to attack Songzi County in the west of Anhui City. Due to the strength of the rebels, Jiangxia Taishou suppressed ineffectively, and our position of Lujiang Taishou has been vacant for a long time, and it has always been the chief official in charge. So two days ago, a new Taishou was transferred, and he is stepping up his armament in the past two days! ”

"I see! Then I don't know who the new Lujiang Taishou is? ”

Hearing this, Zheng Bao did not hesitate, and replied with a smile: "This new Taishou is Lu Kang, a native of Wu County, and his name is Ji Ning." Initially, he was promoted by Zang Min, the former Yangzhou assassin, and made Gaocheng County Order, and later moved to Wuling, Guiyang, and Le'an three counties to guard. Last year, because he wrote to the people to ask for his life, he was transferred to the council after twists and turns. ”

"Huh! It turns out that he is such a virtuous and respected person, and he must be able to put down the chaos soon! Saying that, Wang Xu couldn't help but glance at this Zheng Bao more: This person is not simple!

Wang Xu knows a little about Lu Kang, because he is the elder brother of Lu Xun's grandfather, and he has intersections with Sun Ce, Yuan Shu and others. But it is not simple for this person in front of him to know in such detail, how can ordinary people know Lu Kang's entire life experience. Moreover, this person is even more coarse and detailed, avoiding the important and light. The so-called request for life and twists and turns for the sake of the name was actually Lu Kangjin's advice to Emperor Ling not to increase the field tax to do some useless things, but this increase in the field tax was proposed by the eunuchs, and he wanted to take advantage of this to make a profit, and he could still get it. So he was falsely accused and imprisoned, but because it was not a big deal, he was later bailed out by Liu Dai, the servant of the imperial history, and then transferred to Yilang. But the man in front of him was very smart, and he used two pertinent words to brush it off.

Thinking of this, Wang Xu couldn't help but recall this person's name, Zheng Bao? Zheng Bao! Who is this man? You should know......
