Chapter 028 [Zhang Jiao is not dead]
I'm Liu Bei.
In this case, if I deny it, the ending will definitely be a dead word; If you admit it, you can't escape a dead word in the end, and you may die even worse. Silence is the best way.
My identity is unknown, so the other Eight Hall Masters will naturally not kill me easily, otherwise it will be a disguised recognition of Bu Ji's succession as the sect leader.
And Bu Ji will not kill me, and he will use my identity to help him ascend to the position of sect leader. The surrounding situation is roughly like this: the Nine Hall Masters are gathered here to compete for the position of Sect Master, and this is the purpose for which I have come back.
Obviously, they have agreed: whoever can kill Liu Bei to avenge Zhang Jiao can succeed to the throne.
It seems that they have decided that Zhang Jiao was killed by me.
"Liu Bei, don't think that if you don't speak, the hall master will take you for nothing!" Bu Ji roared angrily.
I squinted at him, still silent.
Bu Ji was about to have a seizure when he heard the guards shouting: "The owner of the village has arrived!" β
Under the arch of several maids, a man with a yellow scarf and a masked face walked in from outside the hall, his gray hair was scattered over his shoulders, and his loose robe could not hide his strong figure. A brand new yellow scarf was tied on his head, revealing only a pair of familiar and bright eyes.
It turned out that he was the longbow of the village owner.
Longbow sat down in front of the desk, and all the hall masters bowed their hands in a respectful manner, but they looked very disdainful. It seems that this village owner can't suppress these hall masters who have been Qu Shuai.
The longbow waved his hand, and the maid next to him opened her lips and read in a soft voice: "According to the detailed information, the 100,000 Han troops stationed at the boundary bridge have set up camp and are coming towards our village. It is expected to arrive outside the village tomorrow morning. Please give advice and suggestions to fight against the enemy. β
As soon as these words came out, the hall was in an uproar.
"Lord of the village, do you know who the commander of the Han army is?" The bearded old man asked.
"Dong Zhuo." The maid replied.
As soon as these words came out, the hall was in an uproar again. Only this time with an overflowing joy.
"Dong Zhuo is the material for war, Emperor Han Ling is really mediocre." The man with the knife on his face shouted with disdain.
"No matter how powerful the tiger is, led by the sheep, isn't it here to send us weapons!" The shirtless man laughed at the top of his throat.
With a wave of the longbow's left hand, the maid asked, "Second hall master, can the weapon be transported?" β
Bu Ji stepped forward and arched his hand: "The weapon has not yet been transported to ......"
"Bold, can the second hall master know that there is a lack of weapons in the village, and if there are no weapons, how can he resist the enemy?" The maid shouted in dissatisfaction.
Bu Ji's face sank: "The subordinates have captured Liu Bei, and now they can avenge the sect leader." β
The maid turned her head to look at the longbow, hoping for instructions.
By this time, Longbow had already fixed his eyes on me, and he had only discovered that there was an outsider here.
With a wave of the longbow, the maid said, "Whether that person is Liu Bei or not, we will discuss it when the Han army is repulsed." The guards imprisoned the man. β
A guard entered the hall in response to the call, and when he was about to take me into custody, Bu Ji stopped and said: "The master of the village, the sect leader has ascended to heaven, and he can no longer lead his subordinates to overthrow the tyranny of the Han Dynasty and restore the peace of the people. It can be said that I am the primary enemy of Taiping Dao. If you don't kill him now, how can you repay the sect leader for leading me in peace? β
The maid shouted: "The bold second hall master dares to disobey the order of the village master!" β
"The owner of the village? Hum! Bu Ji raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said arrogantly.
The longbow waved his palm, indicating that he did not care about it. The maid said: "Escort Liu Bei down!" β
"Wait. Owner! If you don't kill Liu Bei, how can you obey the hearts of the sect? "Bu Ji said strongly.
The other eight hall masters were silent, watching the village master and Bu Ji fight. Whoever wins the longbow and the Buji will have no good fruit to eat. Moreover, this masked longbow, whose identity is inferred from his stature and movements, as well as from the plaque in front of the house, is very similar to a person, and now it almost exactly coincides.
Longbow never spoke, because he was afraid that others would tell his true identity from his voice. I can't help but think that Longbow turned out to be him. Since he is not dead, why doesn't he show his true colors? Could it be that there is some conspiracy hidden in this?
Regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, save yourself first. So he arched his hand and said: "The owner of the village, the hall master, was sentenced to be named on the Internet, not Liu Bei in Bu Ji's mouth." On the contrary, it was Sect Leader Zhang who waved down the dead soldiers. I was secretly ordered by Sect Master Zhang to have something to pass on to the owner of the village, please see the owner of the village alone! β
My obedience surprised everyone. And Bu Ji roared angrily: "You are Liu Bei, what did you use to be sentenced to the Internet to fool me and so on." Today is your sacrifice day! β
Bu Ji pulled out the guard's matching knife, and was about to swing it, but despite the pain in my left chest, I flew up and kicked the matching knife off.
You, a literati, still want to play with swords and swords in front of me? Even though my martial arts are not in the stream, it is more than enough to deal with you.
"The chaos has not yet been completed, and it will take more than ten years of chaos in the world before there can be a great rule." I looked into the deep eyes of the longbow and said quickly. This sentence was said to me by Zhang Jiao from the Guangzong command platform. "Thinking about it, if Sect Leader Zhang is not dead, he will definitely testify for him."
Longbow's eyes suddenly flashed with a murderous aura, and then turned gentle. With a wave of his right hand, he got up and entered the back hall. The maid said arrogantly: "Please be sentenced to go online into the inner hall." β
As soon as these words came out, all the hall masters were stunned.
Bu Ji couldn't accept it, and when he was about to pick up the knife, he couldn't help but take two steps back when he saw me glaring at him.
"Brother Bu, you have exhausted all your organs, but in the end it is empty!" I sarcastically said. Led by the maid into the back hall.
As soon as I entered the back hall, the door was shut.
Longbow looked at a painted painting on the incense table with his hands behind his back. The painting depicts an immortal wandering through a smoky wonderland on clouds.
The color painting is a great sage and good teacher.
Zhang Jiao calls himself a great sage and a good teacher, and it seems that this painting was made by him.
"You didn't die, it's amazing to the old man!" Longbow said lightly.
"Sect Master, don't come to harm, right?" I stood there and asked.
Longbow turned around, and the masked yellow scarf had been removed, revealing an unforgettable faceβZhang Jiao.
"For a month, no one has doubted the identity of the old man."
"I can answer your other question, and that is why the thirty-six armies you have assembled are so vulnerable." I said coldly, mocking the incompetence of his subordinates.
"The old man is very interested to know how you found out."
"Since the sect leader wants to hear it, I can only tell the truth below."
He glanced at Zhang Jiao and said: "The first point, the 'Yellow Turban Dangli' plaque in front of the house that shows his ambition tells me that the owner of the village is not an ordinary person; the second point, I only saw the corpse wearing the clothes of the sect leader under the command platform that day, and I did not turn my face to look closely, indicating that the dead person may not be you; third, the word 'longbow' is actually the word 'Zhang', and your surname is this; fourth, your subordinate Jiutang Hall Master was selected from the thirty-six square canal marshals, ask who in the world has this strength?" Only you three brothers can do it; Fifth, your eyes, the kind of deep gaze that can see through the psychology of all people, are the only ones I have ever seen in my life. And this kind of look is only possessed by you, the sect master. β
"But the old man can't see through you." Zhang Jiao sighed a little.
