—184 A.D.——

In the third year of Guanghe, the third year after the Xiliang traitors Bian Zhang and Han Sui colluded with the Qiang rebellion and were suppressed, the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Dongyi, Shanyue and other foreign races were restless, and the emperor could not transfer troops, so he ordered the governors of various prefectures and counties to be on their own.

At this time, the ten permanent attendants said that this strange move of the alien race was due to the fact that there should be a plan in the Central Plains, and the mastermind was the Taiping Taoist disciple who had already cultivated the Taoist sect to various parts of Kyushu.

The emperor believed it, and ordered the ten permanent attendants to send people to thoroughly investigate the Taiping Road in various places, but the Liangzhou Taiping Road blatantly robbed the prisoners, the Qingzhou Taiping Road attacked the county, the Xuzhou Taiping Road colluded with pirates, and the Youzhou Taiping Road assisted Wuhuan in the raid and assassination history, and the Jizhou Julu General Altar completely refused to be approached by the official envoys.

What's more, several unknown people infiltrated Luoyang to assassinate the Ten Standing Attendants, and the emperor was furious and ordered Luoyang to arrest the assassins, and issued an edict declaring Taiping Dao a rebellion, ordering the state governments to vigorously arrest and arrest them.

No matter how different the "facts" on the list issued by the imperial court are from the real "facts", and what are the unknown things, they cannot change the fact that the Taiping Dao is about to disappear from the face of the light.

As for those good runes? Of course, it was sold by the government, and as for where it came from, it was better not to ask if it didn't want to be regarded as a Taiping party.

Luoyang, in the map of mountains and rivers.

"Master, why is this 'Sword Master' so crazy?" Zhao Yun asked Tong Yuan, "It's hard for a disciple to imagine that someone with the same skills and level, such as a master, would contribute so much to an emperor who is not a virtuous emperor. ”

At this time, two more years had passed since he went to Liangzhou to sabotage the conspiracy of the Ten Standing Servants to collude with the Xiongnu, and Zhao Yun had grown from a young man who was still immature to a seemingly reliable ...... Juvenile.

At least, he will no longer be afraid of those "heroic spirits" who act as usual in the "Mountains and Rivers Society Map".

After the master and apprentice reunited in Luoyang in the "pictured", although Tong Yuan thought that his skills were not enough to master the "Hao Gentian" and did not deliver the weapon, he gave him a new set of light silver armor.

"Hehe, does Zilong know that 'Wang Mang usurped Han'?" Tong Yuan didn't answer, but brought up another topic.

"I know that it is said that it is because of the puppet dynasty established by the puppet emperor that the heavens are angry, so the meteorite gave Emperor Guangwu the power of 'unparalleled', so that he destroyed the puppet dynasty in one fell swoop." Zhao Yun didn't know what the master was asking for this, so he replied according to what ordinary people knew.

"According to records, before Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, there were also extraordinary people, although they were not as many as today's 'unequaled generals', and they did not like to be born, but they had the ability to soar the clouds and drive the fog, move mountains and reclaim the sea, row rivers into land, and bring the dead back to life, but they were all disappeared after Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty," Tong Yuan said, "The teacher guessed that they were likely to be like Wang Yue, tying their own existence to the national fortunes, and then disappearing with the interruption of the Han Dynasty." ”

"That's why Juggernaut ...... Wait a minute? Zhao Yun was halfway through speaking, and suddenly looked around: "The skills of those people can be similar to this 'Mountains and Rivers Society Map'?" ”

Although the Master answered his question about why the Sword Master wanted to defend the current emperor, it seemed that he had inadvertently revealed a big secret—maybe not a secret?

"Otherwise, why do you think that the teacher and Zhang Jiao would live in the 'world' under her control for several years?" Tong Yuan said: "At the beginning, Wang Yue's 'Trace of Heaven' probably also had the meaning of temptation, such as being a teacher, Zhang Jiao, or another 'immortal' would not be able to take that sword head-on. ”

"This ......" Zhao Yun's mind was racing, and he understood many things.

For example, why did Wang Yue immediately cultivate the "Ten Standing Servants" after using that sword, which made the people resentful, but was themselves quite beneficial to maintaining the imperial power.

For example, why did the "fairy" spread the word about Fu Shui to save people, and spread out the "Mountains and Rivers Society Map" to collect the "war dead" people from all over the country, and deliberately protected transcendent people like Tong Yuan and Zhang Jiao, and didn't care about Ji and Zuo Ci's repeated offenses.

Because the Han dynasty is about to end again.

Wang Yue wanted to delay its arrival as much as he could, while Lin Hao Fairy tried to make the sacrifice of this "end" process as low as possible.

As for the dispute between Tong Yuan and Zhang Jiao, it is not so much an idea of improving the practice of the current imperial court as a debate about how the "next imperial court" should govern.

And asking himself to find the right way to govern the world is to let him not take the wrong path and become Wang Yue's unscrupulous appearance now.

"Thank you, Master, for your advice." Zhao Yun solemnly took a deep look, "Zilong knows what to do. ”

"It should be, well, hehe......" Tong Yuan replied with a little dazedness.

————

Although he said "know what to do", what Zhao Yun is currently doing does not need to change, that is, to continue to rescue the Taiping Road "assassins" who are trapped in Luoyang by martial law.

It was indeed Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun who combined their guns to stop Wang Yue's sword slashing at the assassin that day, but it was the blow of the "Luoshen" sickle that really worked.

Tong Yuan and Wang Yue had been "fighting" for two years, and there was sufficient evidence to prove that these assassins were not arranged by him, so Wang Yue's pursuit direction went to the power of "Luoshen".

But the scythe of "Luoshen" only prevented the assassin's death, and the power to throw him away from not knowing where came from the "Mountains and Rivers Society Map" itself, Zhao Yun relied on his familiarity with the "Mountains and Rivers Society Map", and even felt that he was first thrown away from the southeast pole, and then bounced back to the same distance in the northeast.

At this time, the four lieutenants of Luoyang, who obeyed the orders of the Ten Standing Attendants, and the "scattered cavalry" with functions similar to the forbidden army, searched for possible hiding places of the Assassins in Luoyang City, and those who did not dare to offend the Ten Standing Servants in the open, such as the mansions of the Third Duke, most of the Jiuqing, and the old men who had held these positions, asked Empress He to send "Diao Chan" to investigate quietly.

There are naturally very few real "assassins", but there are many people who have been Taiping Daoists or sympathize with them, and almost all of the people caught in this large-scale search by the Ten Standing Servants are like this.

Because the emperor's anger has not subsided, as long as those subordinates of the Ten Standing Servants give the captured person a hat of "having harbored assassins", no one will listen to them even if they shout grievances, at this time, it is an opportunity for Zhao Yun and those rangers who don't care about the power of the Ten Standing Servants to be active.

Zhao Yun naturally has no problem dealing with those scattered cavalry or forbidden troops, and it is okay to kill them once in a while - anyway, he just becomes stupid and moves to the "Mountains and Rivers Society Map".

But those big sisters in black, that is, "Diao Chan", are very difficult to deal with, although Zhao Yun never missed when he rescued the Taiping Daoists who were hunted by them, but in a blink of an eye, the person who was chased would become himself, even if it was useless to scare them with gentian, they would shake their bodies to let Zhao Yun "stab over", so every encounter would end in Zhao Yun's desertion and escape.

Even if he couldn't play a weapon taller than himself when he was young, he never wanted to grow up as quickly as he did now, and it was best to be fierce and scary.

"Woooooooooo......oo Daddy......"

"Don't cry, come with me."

When walking through the northern part of Luoyang, where many high-ranking officials' mansions gathered, Zhao Yun overheard words in a very familiar format, stopped and looked in the direction where the voice came from, and as expected, he saw a "Diao Chan" dressed in black and a girl who was holding her in her hand, about ten years old, wearing a goose yellow dress, crying.

It was obvious that the girl's family harbored the Taiping Taoists, and "Diao Chan" had the evidence, but could not find the specific location, so they planned to threaten their little daughter.

Because Zhao Yun is always chased by "Diao Chan", he doesn't care much about ordinary arrests, but he has to take care of this kind of threatening his family with children...... If it really doesn't work, I'll knock this "Diao Chan" unconscious.

"Let go of that girl!" Zhao Yun swiped a crack and jumped out of the Shanhe Society map to stop the two.

The black-clothed "Diao Chan" and the yellow-clothed girl who was being held by her were stunned.

"Didn't you hear the girl crying? She wants to find her father," Zhao Yun crossed the gentian and made a stern statement: "What kind of ability is it to threaten children if you can't find anyone?" ”

"Woooooooooo......oo I can't find Daddy......" After hearing Zhao Yun's words, the girl who was originally stunned cried again.

"Mind your business and get out of the way." This "Diao Chan" did not mask his face with a black scarf like the ones Zhao Yun usually saw, but revealed a face that was still very beautiful and delicate although it had been precipitated for a while, and the black clothes he wore were not night clothes but palace dresses, as if he was just looking for a black one from many dresses to facilitate night action.

"No, you let the girl go first." Although Zhao Yun was a little glad that the other party was not interested in him, he did not let go of the silver spear in his hand.

"The silver-speared young man who has recently become famous in Luoyang turned out to be a fool with bad eyes." Diao Chan sighed, reached to his waist, and untied an object that looked like a wooden block.

Then, in Zhao Yun's surprised gaze, "Diao Chan" quickly unfolded, combined, and stringed, and finally "transformed" into a gonghou.

"Wait...... You're not a 'Diao Chan', I remember......" Ever since the wooden block began to deform, Zhao Yun felt that some of the dusty memories had begun to loosen, and it was the kind that came with its own danger warnings.

Worst...... Isn't this the back of Mr. Cai Yong's house? At this time, Luoyang was in chaos, and his daughter sneaked in to pick up Mr. Cai and leave, was it not the right thing to do?

The eldest daughter likes to smash people with a gonghou, while the younger daughter ...... Her favorite person was Dian Wei under Cao Cao...... It's "Adian", not "Daddy"!

"It's late." Before Zhao Yun could think clearly, the woman had already flashed in front of him with Gong Hou, and then smashed it down without hesitation.

"Boom-" Where Gong Hou fell, a small pit appeared in the ground, and the young man of the silver spear had disappeared.

"Hmph, just admit the wrong person, I wrote it down." Cai Wan picked up the combination and began to disassemble it.

"Sister, who is that beautiful little brother?" Cai Yan stopped crying and poked his head to see where Zhao Yun had disappeared.

"Heh, it's two."
