Chapter 154 Trust?

"To the west!"

Although he only saw it once, Xu Shu already had a very westward concept of this 'world' in his head, and the Mediterranean coast mentioned by the Son of Heaven was equal to the westernmost point of the largest landmass, and it was also another rich area marked on the map.

The richest land in the Eurasian continent is definitely the east and west regions, and in the middle of the region there are many neighbors and deserts, although the desertification in this era is not so serious, even in the desert there are many oases, but those places are definitely not a good place for the Han people, and the real eye-catcher, that is, the European continent.

And if you want to go from the Han Dynasty all the way to the Mediterranean coast, you have to Zhang Lu to settle down there, which is indeed not something that ordinary people can do, and the Son of Heaven can give himself this task, which is indeed because he values his talent.

But......

"Even if you are on the road, you will have to walk for decades, and when you get to the Mediterranean, you will be old, what else can you do?"

Liu Xuan smiled: "It's not strange that Yuan Zhi is worried about this, but I can see that Yuan Zhi also knows a little about the Xuanmen Dao method, but I don't know how much you know?"

Xu Shu didn't understand how this topic could be related to the occult arts, but he still replied respectfully: "I have a little knowledge of the art of Qimen Dunjia, and I also know a little bit about physiognomy and feng shui, but I don't understand anything about cultivation and alchemy!"

This is not unusual, some scribes with outstanding knowledge, especially those who have a lot of insight into military strategy, will dabble in things such as feng shui and wangqi, because these things are also used in war.

As for what alchemy, some people believe but don't learn it, at most, like Guo Jia, they buy some ready-made pills from Taoist priests in Youfang to take, while some don't believe it at all, thinking that it is nonsense to say that they have become immortals, but they still maintain their awe of gods and ghosts.

Xu Shu should not believe it, but he remains in awe.

Liu Xuan made a judgment in an instant, so the next thing to do is simple, first of all, to subvert Xu Shu's original worldview, he has done this thing many times, and now he is becoming more and more proficient.

First, use Diao Chan as an entry point.

When Xu Shu came in, Diao Chan's performance was definitely shocking enough, especially the huge contrast between the delicate appearance and the terrifying strength, which would make people have a very deep impression, and at the same time, they would wonder in their hearts: "How did you do it? Could it be that the woman was born with divine power?"

What Liu Xuan had to do at this time was to give him an explanation: "The noble mink has been cultivating the Xuanmen technique with me for many years, so it's not strange that he has such an ability!"

Looking at Xu Shu's surprised expression, Liu Xuan took a sip of water and paused, asking him to digest the news before continuing.

"But that's nothing, in fact, there are many mysterious methods that Yuan Zhi hasn't seen, but ......"

stood up and beckoned to Xu Shu to come along.

"It's just that I'm idle, so why don't you go around with me!"

Xu Shu was a little confused about the current situation at this time, the topic jumped too much, and it was something that he had never been in contact with before and had never even thought about it, so he couldn't react a little.

It seems that following the Son of Heaven can get the answer?

But when Xu Shu followed Liu Xuan to step on the small hovercar that was specially prepared for Liu Xuan to patrol and wander around at the same time, everything that appeared in front of him was mercilessly shattering his previous cognition.

Hovercarts that can float in mid-air and move forward without the need for livestock to move forward are not uncommon, but quivers that can provide arrows almost constantly, armor that is extremely hard but light like silk, and strange .........weapons like crossbow arrows that can shoot arrows with just a finger but do not need to be reloaded.

All of these things were things that he couldn't think of before, and the watch that Liu Xuan specially gave him and the walkie-talkie that he experienced for himself made him understand what kind of changes these two things would make in the world.

waited until he turned around and returned to the specially arranged residence, Xu Shu didn't come back to his senses, he just remembered in a daze that the Son of Heaven said to him: "This is just the beginning, the changes that will take place in this world are even greater than you imagined!"

"Also, don't worry about your lifespan, I naturally have a way to make you immortal!"

Phoenix?

When Xu Shu finally came back to his senses in the evening, the first word that flashed in his head was this.

No one can resist such a temptation, after all, everyone wants to live a little longer. Xu Shu is also a human being, of course he hopes that he will live longer, not to mention that he finally saw his chance to get ahead, who doesn't want to be able to live a good life longer?

Otherwise, you will be dying of old age just after living a good life, and you will die before you even have time to enjoy it, which is too sad.

At the same time, Xu Shu also understood what the Son of Heaven would do in return for letting him do this, that is, immortality......

"But...... Is this true?".

Immortality, he has heard a lot, and there is no shortage of rumors in the market, including various rumors told by some Taoist priests, who can live forever.

But I heard that I heard it, but after all, I haven't seen it with my own eyes - even if I did, it seems that there is no way to verify such a thing as immortality, right?

I didn't know how to make a choice for a while, and Liu Xuan on the other side didn't need to worry about this kind of thing at all.

"Why doesn't Your Majesty explain it in detail?"

After Zhen Mi knew what happened today, she immediately saw the problem.

Liu Xuan didn't really prove that he could make Xu Shu immortal, would Xu Shu still agree in this case? After all, what he had to accept was a very difficult task that would not even take decades or even hundreds of years to complete, and the maximum reward promised by the Son of Heaven was something that was not very certain.

In this case, anyone will mutter, right?

But Liu Xuan didn't care at all, and reached out to stroke Zhen Mi's hair hanging on the back of his head: "He is willing to believe me, I can naturally ensure his immortality, but if you don't believe it, ......"

It's not that he didn't notice this, it's just that he can't prove it, for example, Cao Cao and Lu Bu have followed him for so many years, and they don't believe in immortality or anything like that, and they still think that the exercises taught by the Son of Heaven are wonderful methods for prolonging life.

Only time can prove everything, but time does not pass faster by human will, so you can only choose a person who is willing to believe in yourself. If Xu Shu doesn't want to believe it, then he won't be reluctant, just find someone else. Anyway, the world is so big, and there are so many talents, I don't believe that I can't find a suitable one.

What's more, such an undercover undercover mission depends on the consciousness of that person, Liu Xuan will not use any family members to threaten or anything like that, what the undercover agent who is thousands of miles away will do, what will he do, and whether he will complete this task according to his original instructions is all conscious, so if he does not trust the Son of Heaven enough, it is better not to send such a person.

It can be said that this is a small test for Xu Shu, and in the end, it depends on what kind of answer he makes, and then he will decide whether to really send him.

After talking about it roughly, Zhen Mi immediately understood what Liu Xuan meant.

This woman is very smart, but she is not very proficient in things like intrigue, so although she is knowledgeable, she is not suitable to be an official.

However, it is okay to simply teach and educate people, and women are inherently more patient and delicate than most men, so they should be able to teach a group of excellent students...,

Thinking wildly, the night passed so peacefully.

But for some people, this night is not destined to be peaceful, although he is faced with only two choices, but often this situation is the most entangled, so Xu Shu lost sleep, sat in front of the window and looked at the moon stupidly for a night.

also has insomnia, as well as Cai Mao in Xiangyang City.

As the imperial army moved south, and after arranging with Fancheng as a base and launching an attack on Xiangyang, Cai Mao's life became more and more difficult day by day.

Lu Bu on the opposite side did not lead the army to attack Xiangyang in a hurry after successfully crossing the Han River, but set up a camp thirty miles northeast of Xiangyang, and then did what he should do quietly, as if he didn't see Xiangyang City.

Even if Sun Cejun's forward soldiers and horses had already driven to Xiangyang, Lu Bu didn't care about it, but instead sat back and watched Sun Cejun enter Xiangyang, which made Cai Mao even more confused, and couldn't figure out which one Lu Bu was making trouble?

"Sitting back and watching the strength of our army increase, what is Lu Bu's calculation? Could it be that he wants to use soldiers and horses to surround Xiangyang and trap us in the city?"

Cai Mao didn't know much about Lu Bu and the imperial army, but it turned out that Han Dang, the general of Sun Cejun, sneered: "What kind of siege, then Lu Bu just didn't take us and others seriously, he just felt that it was too troublesome to fight again and again, and wanted to defeat us in one go after we got together!"

Cai Mao was naturally furious when he heard this, but Han Dang was too lazy to deal with this guy - he didn't bother to talk to someone who even the lord could murder for his own interests.

Han Dang is an old minister who followed Sun Jian, and there are also Huang Gai and Cheng Pu, who are now working together to assist Sun Jian's son Sun Ce, who is loyal to the Sun family and has great prestige in the army.

Naturally, Sun Ce thought of these veterans as soon as he got Yu Ji's help, and in addition to that, he trusted his sworn brother Zhou Yu.

It can be said that Han Dang is one of the first few people in Sun Ce's army to cultivate, and his strength is also extremely strong, plus after several battles, he gradually has a clear understanding of his strength, and his confidence is bursting, even in the face of Lu Bu, who is known as the world's number one fierce general, he is not too worried.

It's just that...... From the news he heard from Cheng Pu before he set off, he could know that the people of the imperial army could even affect the weather in a short period of time, and he was defeated under that strange fog, which should be guarded against, who knows what tricks the group of people on the other side will play.

But looking at Lu Bu on the other side, what does it mean, do you want to fight face-to-face?
