Chapter 364: Lux
When I saw the maggot on my arm, the fear came over me.
"Where did you get this corpse maggot?" asked the fat man.
I suddenly thought of Uncle Huang just now, I had only been in contact with him at that time, could it be that I crawled over him? That is to say, Uncle Huang was also recruited?
When I thought about this, I suddenly noticed a fire in the direction of the ancestral hall in the village.
"Oh no, the uncle committed suicide. I disagreed.
Ah Cai muttered, "It's over, that night pearl!"
"Fuck off, when is it, I'm still thinking about the Night Pearl, that thing can't be touched, otherwise it will be a catastrophe. I said.
But I can see that the fat man and those people are all eager to try, I don't know if it is the profession that has to be sensitive to those treasures, as long as the name comes out, these people are absolutely in good spirits.
The fat man didn't move, but said lightly: "Now that the matter has been resolved, it seems that the carrion corpses have been almost cleaned up, so we can go into the village to have a look." ”
I immediately said, "Okay, let's go back along the road." ”
But as soon as I had finished speaking, the fat man said to me, "We have a lot of people, so let's go." ”
"We're okay anyway, we have to take care of it. I said.
The fat man sighed and said, "I think you should go back to General Tiangong first, when we came, we heard that they were severely damaged by the imperial army a few days ago." ”
When I heard this, I couldn't help but ask, "Is this really the case?"
"Of course, it is said that General Tiangong is worried. ”
I knew that the fat men had their purpose in sending us away, and it was after we talked about the Night Pearl just now that I felt that these people were just as greedy as Ah Cai.
I decided to go back to the Yellow Turbans' headquarters immediately, this time to investigate the backstage of this group, but now we have to abandon our goal.
"That night pearl has been burned, and even if you get it, it is estimated that it will not sell for much price, but I want to remind you that that pearl is really very poisonous, be careful. "I don't have any other purpose, I just don't want the poison of the Night Pearl to spread again, to the point where it is out of control.
The fat man thanked me for the reminder, took his own people and left, and we found our way to the headquarters of the Yellow Turban Army.
For several days in a row, because the Yellow Turban Army was attacked by the Han army, they were defeated and retreated one after another, and they had already left Shou County. We're just looking for it.
On this day, someone told us that a large number of Yellow Turbans had been found more than ten miles away from us, so we searched for them.
When he arrived at the barracks, Zhang Jiao was drinking alone in the middle tent, his face was full of sadness, and he seemed to be much older.
It's only been more than 20 days, but the huge Yellow Turban Army has been so defeated that no one has to get angry.
"General, we're back, who are you?" I asked.
Zhang Jiao put down his wine glass and sighed: "I never thought that the combat effectiveness of the Han army is still so strong, I want us to be peaceful, thanks to the blessing of the ancestors of the Yellow Emperor, but we still fight them, it's really incomprehensible." ”
"Did the general find the real reason?" I asked.
Zhang Jiao was silent for a long time before he spoke: "It seems that the single attack power of our soldiers is still not enough, if we can improve the ability of our soldiers, I think it will not be a problem to deal with those Han soldiers again." ”
"Does the general have a plan?" I asked.
Zhang Jiao nodded and said: "Actually, we are studying a kind of strong and healthy strongman, if the research is successful, the ability of each soldier can withstand the attack of at least ten soldiers, so the Han army is not enough in front of us." ”
When I heard this, I suddenly remembered the soldiers I saw in his backyard a few days ago who were used as test subjects, which should be the Hercules that Zhang Jiao said.
I didn't say it directly, I just pretended not to know: "Then this kind of soldier research has been successful?"
Hearing me ask, Zhang Jiaoqiang smiled and said: "I have to thank you for this matter, the Jin Dan you found back at the beginning really came in handy, but unfortunately the quantity is too small, and there is no way to replicate it at the moment, so we can only use half the amount of medicine for the soldiers." ”
"Are you talking about the golden pill that cures the plague?" I pretended not to know.
Zhang Jiao nodded and said: "It is this thing, I also saw that many people have undergone great changes in their bodies after they have recovered from their illnesses, so I had the idea of using it to develop Yellow Turban Lux." ”
I have long figured out in my heart, where did he find out what happened to the people, it is obvious that he has long known that Jindan can refine soldiers, so he deliberately let us find it, as for the plague of the people, they have such a way, they must use other methods to cure it.
My hand pinched the gourd with the medicine, and I was thinking about whether to teach him to Zhang Jiao again.
An old man came running from outside the tent, and when I looked back, it was the one who had been refining medicine in the backyard that day.
"General Tiangong, our medicine has made new progress. ”
As soon as the old man said this, Zhang Jiao was very happy, and immediately got up and said, "Really, take me to see it." He followed the old man out of the middle tent, and this time he specially dragged us with him.
At the back of the middle tent, we entered a half-moon gate, and here was a very secluded courtyard, except for a few pharmacists who shuttled back and forth, there was no one else.
"Where's the result?" Zhang Jiao was a little impatient.
The old man dragged us into the room, walked directly to the bed, pointed to the soldier on the bed and asked, "Lux, how do you feel now?"
"It feels good, the strength has not faded, if I were to go into battle, I could kill one hundred and eighty of them. "The soldier on the bed spoke with confidence, and his face was ruddy, and he looked quite healthy.
Facing the huge Yellow Turban Lux in front of him, compared with the soldiers he saw before, this one was obviously in much better condition.
The old man and Zhang Jiao said: "This soldier has been bedridden here for five consecutive days, judging from the pulse, there is no confusion, and in the past few days, his complexion, including the coordination ability of various parts of his body, we have sat and tested, and the reaction has exceeded our expectations." ”
"That's great, in that case, let's train them in large quantities as soon as possible, and let them enter the battle as soon as possible. Zhang Jiao was overjoyed, and frequently praised in his mouth: "It's really the gift of the ancestor of the Yellow Emperor, let us develop such a magical wrestler." ”
But at this time, the old man whispered, "But there is something that will make us unable to make so many wrestlers in a short time. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Jin Dan, our Jin Dan is running out, and the rest can create a team of less than 100 people. ”
Zhang Jiao frowned, turned his head to look at me and said, "You didn't see a prescription or anything when you came out of the cemetery?"
Wu Shu and Acai shook their heads at the same time.
"There is no prescription, all we got were these pills, besides, there were still those Zhao people present at the time, maybe they were taken away. ”
Zhang Jiao nodded: "Damn, it wasn't attacked by the Han army, Lao Tzu would have found out the backstage of those people a long time ago, it's a pity." ”
Seeing Zhang Jiao so melancholy, my heart was conflicted for a long time, and then I took the gourd out of my arms.
"General, don't worry, when the three of us went to Zhaodi to find that group of people this time, we snatched these things from their hands, I have checked, these are all Jindan that has been practiced, but the number is limited, I am afraid that it can only expand the team of wrestlers to about a thousand people. ”
When Zhang Jiao saw the things in my hand, it was as if he had seen the dawn of life, and the excitement from his heart was indescribable.
He took the golden pill and even counted it with his hands.
"Three hundred and sixty in total, Pharmacist, how many wrestlers can these make?" Zhang Jiao immediately asked.
The old man took the golden pill, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, his face was overjoyed, and he patted his chest and said: "General rest assured, the purity of these medicines is much better than the last time, I can divide it into five, plus the previous ones, I can expand the number of wrestlers for five thousand people." ”
When Zhang Jiao heard this, the joy in his heart could not be expressed, he controlled it for a long time, and approached me and said: "Brother, you have made a great contribution this time, let's eat and drink in the tent." Then he immediately arranged for someone to go down and prepare food and drink.
I really didn't expect that these broken pills would make Zhang Jiao a few years younger in an instant, but you can imagine what the Han army had beaten him into.
I thought of this and smiled: "The general has won the award, this is what I should do, after all, we are also members of the Yellow Turban Army." ”
"Okay, great, I'll give an order today, and whoever dares to point fingers at the three of you in the future will have an opinion on me. Zhang Jiao's words spread.
From then on, wherever we went, as long as there was a Yellow Turban Army, we had to avoid three points when they saw us.
That night, we had a half-night banquet in the middle tent, Zhang Jiao was drunk, and we retreated with interest.
After resting in the military tent for five days in a row, we were called by Zhang Jiao to the small courtyard of the Half Moon Gate, and when we entered the courtyard, we found no less than twenty Yellow Turban wrestlers majestic.
"What's the matter, I specially asked people to make special weapons for them, these weapons are more lenient than ordinary people, if they are brought to the battlefield, they have to be called mothers by those Han soldiers. Zhang Jiao was a little proud.
The old man said: "Now that more than 2,000 soldiers have been hatched in the army, should the remaining pills continue to expand the army?"
"This ......" Zhang Jiao hesitated, and said for a long time: "Keep some first, maybe you can use it in the future." ”
The old man immediately agreed, and ordered those who received it to rest for the time being.
At this time, a yellow turban soldier came running in a panic from outside the Half Moon Gate.
"Report to General Tiangong that there are currently 20,000 Han troops marching towards us from the west, and we are already less than ten miles away, and the leaders ask if they want to send troops immediately. ”
When Zhang Jiao heard this, he slapped the case: "It's just right, immediately pull out all the evolved Yellow Turban wrestlers for me, form a team of every 100 people, and insert them into our army, I want them to see how powerful our wrestlers are." ”
