Chapter 13 Visiting Talents

"When I visited Zhujiazhuang on the British stage, my eyes were full of the old times, and I was happy and happy when I recalled the past, but I didn't know that she was a female red staker." Cheng Feng was happily singing modern songs, because after several months of open and secret fighting, he and Zhang Jiao had gained the upper hand. The people of Jizhou are now thunderous about the name of Chengfeng! Of course, Zhang Jiao is also full of harvest, after all, in order to survive, the common people will not distinguish too much between right and wrong, not to mention that Zhang Jiao is still a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty at this time!

"Big brother, what are you singing?" Zhao Yun was puzzled

"Haha, the song I made, is it good?" Cheng Feng said shamelessly

"It's good, it's a little weird, but it's funny!" Zhao Yun said with a smile

"Then I'll teach you to sing another day!! Haha" Cheng Feng laughed and covered up his weakness!

"By the way, big brother, didn't you come to me just to let me listen to you sing?" Zhao Yun quipped

"Hehe, how could it be? I'm looking for you, I want to take you out for a walk and see the customs of our Jizhou, how about it? Cheng Feng asked

Zhao Yun was overjoyed, "Okay! "Although Zhao Yun's martial arts are strong at this time, and he has been practicing with Chengfeng for more than half a year, after all, he is young, and he still has a teenager's enthusiasm and playfulness in his bones." It's just that our Changshan County has just settled down, I'm afraid it's not suitable for us to go out, right? ”

"It's okay, I've thought about it, just the two of us, this Changshan County will be handed over to Zhang Liao and Tian Yu, the two generals, they are both fierce generals and good ministers, and it is more than enough to govern a country, not to mention a Changshan. We don't have anything to do this winter, so you just go out with me to see if there's any talent available! Cheng Feng said to Zhao Yun,

"Hmmm! Also, I'm relieved to have them! ”

"Okay, you go pack your things, I'll go explain to them, and we'll leave in a moment!"

"Okay, big brother," Zhao Yun said happily

"Lord, you must be careful when you go out this time, I'm afraid that Zhang Jiao will secretly attack you!" Tian Yu was a little worried

"Hehe, it's okay, I have Zilong, and I can go to the sword mountain and the sea of fire!" Cheng Feng smiled lightly, "However, the two of us are traveling secretly, they may not be able to know, but you need to take more precautions here, after all, Zhang Jiao is not a good person, and we only went out for twenty days this time, I hope Changshan can be safe." Cheng Feng said that his heart suddenly moved, "Next year will be the first year of Zhongping, that is, the year of the Taiping Sect riots, I just don't know when Zhang Jiao will rebel!" ”

"Don't worry, my lord, with me Zhang Liao, I will ensure that Changshan is safe!!" Zhang Liao said

"Haha, of course I don't worry, as long as you are here, this Changshan is impregnable!" Cheng Feng said, "Okay, don't send it, Zilong and I will go out secretly, so that it won't attract Zhang Jiao's attention, and the weather is getting colder and colder, you must pay attention to take care of the victims of Nanjun, after all, they have just experienced the plague, and I am afraid that my body will still not be able to bear it, I have stored some herbs separately in the warehouse, some are for corpse plague and enhance physical fitness, and some are for the treatment of typhoid fever, if someone is sick because of typhoid fever in winter, it can be used for treatment!" Cheng Feng added

"Yes! Lord! ”

"Alright, you guys go get busy!" sent Zhang Liao and Tian Yu away, and said to Zhao Yun, "Zilong, have you cleaned up?" The two of us will sneak out in a moment! ”

"Pack it up, just wait for the big brother!" Zhao Yun said excitedly

"What man, stop!" Zhao Yun and the others had just walked to the city gate, looked around and saw that there was no one, and were about to sneak out, but they were startled by this roar! Immediately after that, there was a bang, and a team of people surrounded the two, and several archers appeared on the wall, facing the two of them with bows and arrows!

"Ahh Taishou-sama, stop, it's Taishou-sama! One of the leaders recognized Chengfeng, and hurriedly shouted, everyone took a closer look, it was really Chengfeng, and hurriedly saluted and said hello

"Alright, alright, all get up, you're good, where are you hiding? I didn't even see it? Cheng Feng said with a smile, quickly change the topic, and save yourself embarrassment!

"Lord Hui, we are the secret whistle arranged by Lord Tian!" One person replied, as soon as these words came out, Cheng Feng understood, this is to make up for the lack of guards in the bright place, specially placed eyes, I think anyone who has seen the bright sword knows the role of the dark whistle, it can save lives at critical moments!

"Hmmm! Yes, take credit to you, you go to Lord Tian and tell him, tell him to set up the secret post as mobile, so that even if someone informes, he will not know in advance, and then decide the location of the secret post before each change of guard! Go ahead! Zilong, let's go! Cheng Feng said

"Yes, sir!" The leader was overjoyed

"Drive!" Two horses passed quickly on the official road, stirring up snowflakes on the ground! It is Cheng Feng and Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun's snow shadow is snow-white, without a single miscellaneous hair! The sealed red flame was like a raging fire, and it hissed a few times from time to time. The two horses have been in Changshan City for more than half a year, and they have never been so cheerful, and the war horses just need to gallop the field, instead of staying in the stable and eating grass every day! Now that the cage has finally been released, it is really a wild horse that has escaped from the leash, galloping on the land recklessly! The snowflakes flying in the sky couldn't block the sight, and in the blink of an eye, Changshan City was left behind!

"Big brother, where are we going?" Zhao Yun asked

"Go to Zhuojun!" Cheng Feng smiled, "Zilong, this time we have to race horses, see whose horse is fast?" ”

"Good! Big brother, you can't be fooled this time! ”

"No, no, let's go! Ha ha! All that was left on the road was laughter and the sound of horses' hooves.

Ancient winters were lifeless, full of bare trees and hard land, with the occasional hare foraging in the snow! Due to the drought, the places where the victims pass are the same as the locusts that pass through, and a few hares can be regarded as rabbits that have slipped through the net!

"Big brother, hurry up, or we'll have to spend the night in this snow today"

"Alas. After a catastrophe, there was not even a village on the road, so we had to travel overnight, and I think we should be almost to Zhuo County! Cheng Feng said uncertainly,

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yun was speechless for a while, if you hadn't led the wrong way, wouldn't we have arrived a long time ago? Cheng Feng seemed to sense something, and said curtly, "On this snowy day, there is no sign on the road, who knows where the road is?" ”

Zhao Yun thought about it, this is also true, and it can't be blamed for Chengfeng, there is snow everywhere in this winter, and I haven't met a few villages along the way, and both of them are not familiar with the road, and it is normal to take the wrong road! "What then? We can't really rush to the night, and besides, if we make a mistake again, wouldn't it be more troublesome? Zhao Yun worried,

"Zilong, you're right. Looks like we're going to have to spend the night here! "Chengfeng is a little helpless

"Big brother, look, there's cooking smoke in front, we don't seem to have to sleep in the wild tonight!" Zhao Yun suddenly pointed forward with his hand and said excitedly,

"Oh, really. Walk! Check it out! After saying that, the two of them hurried away!

In Julu City, the three Zhang Jiao brothers were drinking, and they had been angry for several months, but now with a heavy snowfall, it seemed that the anger in their hearts had disappeared a lot. Listening to the good of the Taiping Sect everywhere in Julu City, looking at the smiles on the faces of the disciples, Zhang Jiao had a trace of hesitation in his heart, maybe he didn't need to raise troops, it was also good to be a Taiping Sect Master! Thinking of this, I felt a pang of turmoil in my heart, and I had to sigh! "Alas!"

"Why is the eldest brother sighing?" Zhang Liang was very puzzled, he was drinking happily just now, why was it like this for a while?

"That's it, big brother, what a sigh of goodness!" Zhang Bao was also a little puzzled

"Second brother and third brother, what do you think we should do next? Is it really the other way around? Will this people rebel with us? Zhang Jiao said confusedly

"Big brother, what do you want to do, the people of the world have been suffering for a long time! Will definitely rebel! Zhang Liang said heartlessly

"Hehe, third brother, this is a matter related to the lives of dozens of our Zhang family, can I not think about it clearly, after all, there is no turning back arrow from this matter, either the Han Dynasty dies or we die!" Zhang Jiao sighed

"Big brother, what the hell do you think?" Zhang Bao asked solemnly

"We are all our own brothers, and I won't hide it from you, we don't have the qualifications to confront the imperial court now. We only have victims, no soldiers! The soldiers of the imperial court are in Xiliang all the year round, and the northern Xinjiang resists foreigners, and the combat effectiveness is much higher than that of our sectarians, and most of our people are poor people, and few people know how to command the military, these are our serious deficiencies! Once we fight the imperial court, these will lead to our rapid defeat, which is why I dare not cause trouble! Zhang Jiao smiled bitterly

"What about Big Brother's plans? Keep waiting? I'm afraid it won't work either! Zhang Bao said

"Why not? If we don't oppose it, the court won't do it, it's the big deal and it's the same as before" Zhang Liang doesn't care!

"It's not the same time anymore!" Zhang Bao said this, and the other two were a little confused, and looked at him in unison, waiting for the following.

"Big brother, third brother, the days when the well water didn't interfere with the river water are gone! Take this plague as an example, our sect members have increased more than seven times, and now there are our sect members everywhere in the whole of Kyushu, which can already be said to be huge! This has touched the bottom line of the imperial court and the major families, and they will definitely suppress us everywhere in the future. If the weather goes well next year and everything is fine, we can be more stable! But after this year's drought and plague, next year will be a famine year. When the time comes, tens of millions of mouths are waiting for dinner, I don't think anyone will be able to afford it, but we have a lot of supplies, which is another fundamental reason why they deal with us! Zhang Bao said slowly,

Zhang Jiao frowned, "Yes, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." Now we're on the cusp! ”

"Yes! There is another thing, even if we send the materials out to the court and the family. They give us a respite. But there are also people who won't give it. Zhang Bao smiled bitterly

"Who doesn't give?" Zhang Liang said angrily,

"Sealed!" This time, without waiting for Zhang Liang to speak, Zhang Jiao smiled bitterly, "This Changshan Taishou is not easy to come, since he came to Changshan, what he has done is not only to prevent us, but also to force us to rebel!" Now he can be called a strong soldier, even if we go to deal with him now, we may not be able to win! ”

"Yes, this Chengfeng is a big trouble, I can't afford to provoke it, I can't beat it, I can only hide, the key is that he will press everywhere, so that you sometimes can't bear it!" Speaking of this, Zhang Liang was even more angry, drank a big sip of wine fiercely, and gnawed a leg of mutton, just like gnawing a sealed leg!

"It's a bit strange to say that this is a seal, I sent more people to investigate, but there was no news of him, as if it appeared suddenly, there was no deeds to follow, and even our eyeliner in the middle of the court didn't know when there was a Changshan Taishou!" Zhang Bao was also puzzled

"Could that be a fake?" Zhang Jiao was puzzled

"No, he is the fate of the imperial court, and His Majesty is specially ordered today, otherwise, he would not dare to make such a big fuss in Jizhou, otherwise he will bring trouble to himself!" Zhang Jiao said

"Humph! Maybe His Majesty specially arranged it to deal with us! Zhang Liang, who was gnawing on a leg of mutton, muttered

The speaker has no intention of listening, Zhang Liang's words instantly made Zhang Bao's eyes light up, it seems that this Chengfeng is really likely to be sent by the imperial court, if this is the case, it means that the imperial court has been wary of Zhang Jiao and others! This seal is used against yourself!

"Big brother, if that's the case, then we're in a bad situation! It seems that this Spirit Emperor has long been on guard against us. Zhang Bao worried

"Alas, now we are in a difficult position to ride a tiger, no matter what we do. The court will do something to us. If we want to be opposed, we need a suitable opportunity! Zhang Jiao was very helpless

"Big brother, now that we have gone through a plague, we have a high reputation, and what we lack is soldiers, if the army of the imperial court can be greatly reduced, then we will have a great chance of success." Zhang Liang said as if he had enlightened

"Yes, after a plague, many Han soldiers have been affected, coupled with this year's drought, I don't think there is much food to supply in Dahan, if we want to start an incident, next year is the best time, if something happens in the middle that shakes the foundation of Dahan." Zhang Bao said slowly with a little helplessness

"Alas. What else can shake the foundation of the Great Han? Zhang Jiao was also a little worried

"Plague, only the plague can shake!" Zhang Bao thought for a while and said,

"But isn't this plague over?" This time, Zhang Liang didn't gnaw on the leg of mutton, and he felt that his second brother was a little out of tune.

"Hehe, the plague I'm talking about is typhoid fever every winter. In the past few years, there have been several outbreaks of typhoid fever in winter, and everyone was still rich in the past few years, and they could more or less carry it, but this time they experienced a summer of corpse plague, and most of the human body was left with troubles, plus this time a large number of materials have been consumed, if you come again in winter, hehe, the Han Dynasty will have no majesty at all. Because they have nothing left to save the people! Zhang Bao said with a smile

"But we can't control this plague outbreak? Besides, the common people are already bitter enough, and God can't punish us like this! In any case, the people are innocent! "Even a big and coarse nerve like Zhang Liang is a little embarrassed!

"Yes, the people are suffering, but look at this day, there will be heavy snow this year, the people are not enough to eat and dress warmly, I conclude that there will be a big typhoid attack, this is an important blow to the Han! In the event of another plague, no matter what the outcome, the imperial court will do something against us, because only we have food. So, we don't have a choice, only the opposite! Zhang Bao said very seriously

"Alas! Yes, the second brother's analysis is very correct! It's just that time is too rushed, if God gives me another five years, I will take this world like a bag and an ear! Zhang Jiao also sighed

"In that case, then we have to prepare early, otherwise we can only wait to be killed at that time!" Zhang Liang said hatefully

"Well, that's good! No matter what happens this winter, we will have an incident in Yecheng next year! If it goes well, the capital will be built there! The congregants of Jizhou were ordered to gather in Yecheng after the beginning of spring tomorrow. Let's discuss the specific matters later," Zhang Jiao said after thinking about it

Just when the three brothers were discussing matters related to the fate of the Han Dynasty, Chengfeng Zhao Yun finally found a village and had a good meal! Finally, the embarrassment of staying overnight in the snow was avoided.

"What? This is the river. Big brother, we have deviated from the direction, and Zhuojun is to the north of us. Zhao Yun looked at Cheng Feng with a helpless expression

"Hehe" Cheng Feng laughed awkwardly to ease the atmosphere, "Oh, let's go out for a walk, it's the same everywhere." What if you run to Luoyang, there are talents everywhere! ”

"Hehe, two little brothers, you came out in the cold this day, but you have to be more careful, you can't see a few people on the way, if it weren't for Mr. Zhang, who can see a doctor in our village, we would have fled." An old man said with a smile

"Mr. Zhang? Will you see a doctor? Cheng Feng's heart moved, at this time, there were two famous doctors, one Hua Tuo and one Zhang Zhongjing, could it be that he had met a medical saint! Thinking of this, my heart suddenly became hot, and I didn't feel cold at all. "Dare to ask the old man, this Mr. Zhang is named Zhang Zhongjing?"

"Oops! The little brother is really a man of God, and he can even call out his name at once! The old man was taken aback and said with great joy

In fact, the happiest thing is Chengfeng, and now he has picked up the treasure, "I don't know where Mr. Zhang lives?" ”

"Hehe, it's in the east room of my house, it's just that he's been getting some herbs and writing some things recently, and I don't dare to disturb, I guess at this hour, I've rested!"

"Oh, that's right, then please take my two brothers to visit tomorrow!"

"Yes, you can! That's it, the two little brothers are also tired. It's better to rest early! ”

may be really tired, Zhao Yun fell asleep, and occasionally muttered a few words, "Big brother, I went wrong again, to the north!" "Big brother, where are we again? Or listen to me! Cheng Feng listened to the fever on his old face, "This kid, don't let me worry if I sleep!" "Actually, Cheng Feng is not sleepy, and the thought of seeing the medical saint Zhang Zhongjing right away, is that exciting! I just look forward to this day as soon as possible, and go to see this great sage by myself!
