Now Zhao Yu has just taken the first step.

The Divine Soul has given birth to spiritual consciousness and has revealed some extraordinary abilities.

At least, he can hope.

When I first came here, I didn't have the ability to hope.

Looking at Cao Mengde, the green qi on the top is surging, and there is a faint purple qi in the air, making a dragon.

Others, such as Cheng Yu and Dian Wei, are more red, and there is a faint amount of green energy.

The qi of people is only four colors, ordinary people, ordinary people, the vast majority of them are white. Those who are red are all outstanding people, and there is no one in a thousand miles. Outstanding people are in humanity, show their ability, and have a role in promoting humanity, so that they are young. As for the purple qi, it is the qi of the king of people.

Cao Mengde is like a human king, but he is not a human king, so the green qi breeds purple qi. Dian Wei, Cheng Yu, etc., are all outstanding people, and they are on the humanitarian stage in this world of great controversy.

Looking at Guan Hai and the others again, their qi is chaotic, neither white nor black, Zhao Yu knows that this is because these people were accepted by him as his entourage, and they are related to him, a person in the immortal path, and their qi is no longer pure.

Zhao Yu himself, his qi is azure, which is quite different from the surging pure green qi on the top of Cao Mengde, and the green qi nurtured by Cheng Yu Dianwei and other red qi.

But when he is humane and humane, his own qi has gradually evolved towards pure youth, and when he is humane and perfect, he is pure green, and when he is humane and out of humanity, he will change again.

If Zhao Yu was interested in the position of the king and worked hard for it, he could also give birth to purple qi, but he didn't have that mind.

After leaving Liang Fu, Zhao Yu and more than 20 people, including Guan Hai and Guan Ming, went straight to Mount Tai, and saw the holy woman of Taiping Road in a Taoist temple on Mount Tai.

The saint is called Zhang Ling.

Zhang Lingnian is only twenty, she is not the descendant of Zhang Jiao's three brothers, but the righteous daughter adopted by Zhang Jiao. Its appearance is ordinary, its breath is indifferent, only a pair of eyes, clear and clear.

Hearing that the yellow scarves had fallen, Zhang Ling just nodded, as if it had nothing to do with her.

She cares more about the dozens of children in the Taoist temple.

These are all her own adopted children.

Zhao Yu said that he wanted her to be by his side from now on, and Zhang Ling nodded lightly.

Then let Guan Hai, Zhang Ling and others take these children to Liangfu and hand them over to Cao Mengde for placement, so that they can return to Puyang on their own. As for Zhao Yu, he was alone, went down Mount Tai, and went west to Nanyang.

Zhao Yu wants to go to Nanyang, and the purpose is jade.

If Cao Mengde hadn't asked Dian Wei to go back to Puyang to find him before, maybe Zhao Yu would have gone to Nanyang.

Although Zhao Yu has the Chaos Bead Small World to cultivate medicinal materials, there are also some means to be absent from the other courtyards. It is imperative to arrange the formation. After studying for a while, Zhao Yu found that he still needed jade, a material that could absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, to refine the formation base talisman.

At least until a replacement is found, or until a certain level of cultivation is reached, jade is probably essential.

There are many sources of jade, but in this era, the jade produced in two places is probably more famous, one is Guanzhong Lantian jade, and the other is Nanyang Dushan jade. As for Hetian Yu in the Western Regions, or Xiuyu in Youzhou, they are not considered for the time being.

Guanzhong is still in the poison of Xiliang, and the distance is even farther, so Nanyang is the first choice.

Zhao Yu planned to go to Nanyang to collect some pure jade and reserve it for later use.

As for letting Cao Mengde collect it, this is also possible. However, Zhao Yu is very quiet, and he has been in Puyang for more than two years, and it is good to come out for a walk.

Zhao Yu rode alone, but he was also happy to be at ease.

All the way to the southwest, through Yanzhou, it is also calm. Although Cao Mengde is still co-opting the Yellow Turban, he has not put aside Yanzhou's government affairs. Even in the army, Cao Mengde had to deal with the government affairs reported by the fast horse every day, and he could only fall asleep in the middle of the night.

Liu Bei's success lies in the fact that he has been defeated repeatedly, is not discouraged, and persists.

And Cao Mengde is not inferior to Liu Bei. In this world, those who can achieve great things not only have supernatural talents, but also have perseverance.

Cao Mengde has both.

Zhao Yu did not pass through Dongjun, but walked from Luguo, Shanyang, Jiyin, and southwest to Yingchuan County, Yuzhou.

Yingchuan is now probably within Yuan Shu's sphere of influence.

In other words, Yuzhou is still under the general control of Yuan Shu.

The basic plate of Yuan Shu is Runan, which is also Yuan's hometown. Before crusading against Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shu originally coveted Jingzhou, so that Sun Jian came all the way south, first killed Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, and then killed Zhang Zhi, the Taishou of Nanyang, but the Jingzhou family resisted, and Yuan Shu was difficult to succeed.

And Dong Zhuo reacted very quickly, as soon as Wang Rui died, he immediately sent Liu Biao to Jingzhou. Liu Xianren rode alone, got the support of the family, and soon sat in Jingzhou, and Yuan Shu was helpless.

Sun Jian, with the support of Yuan Shu, fought with Dong Zhuo and even hit the hinterland of Luoyang. When cleaning up the ruins of Luoyang, he got the jade seal of the country. After Sun Jian retreated, Yuan Shu asked him to attack Jingzhou, and just last year, in 191, Sun Jian died at the hands of Huang Zu.

After Sun Jian's death, his Sun Ce took the remnants with him and still worked under Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu is now focusing on Yangzhou, and at the political level, he is fighting fiercely with Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao appointed a Yangzhou assassin, and Yuan Shu sent someone to kill him and appointed one himself. Now he has moved to Shouchun.

Therefore, Yuzhou is probably within Yuan Shu's sphere of influence, but in fact, the control is not strong.

Yuan Shu was fighting with Yuan Shao, focusing on Yangzhou, and at the same time, he was still coveting Jingzhou, and he was very busy.

When Yingchuan was discussing Dong among the princes, he was in chaos for a while. It's a little calmer now. After all, here, there are many big families, such as the Yingyin Xun family, as well as the Guo family and the Chen family, all of which are based in Yingchuan. As long as there is no interference from powerful princes, some hairy thieves and bandits will not dare to mess around in Yingchuan.

Zhao Yu stayed in Yangzhai of Yingchuan for two days.

He still remembered that Guo Jia seemed to be a native of Yangzhai.

But think about Guo Jia at this time, he should be in Jizhou like Xun Yu. Yuan Shao has already taken Jizhou, and both of them are working under Yuan Shao. Speaking of Jizhou, I also have to talk about the original Jizhou Mu Han Fu. It is also the grievance of death. He was seized by Yuan Shao Jizhou, and he was afraid that Yuan Shao would harm him, so he went south to Chen Liuzhang Miao. And Yuan Shao sent an envoy to discuss an alliance with Zhang Miao to resist Yuan Shu, and after Han Fu learned about it, he thought that Yuan Shao had sent someone to kill him, and in fear, he hid in the toilet and cut himself off.

Thinking that the people who could make Zhao Yu have some interest are not there now, Zhao Yu lost his interest, and after shopping in Yangzhai for two days, he heard some news, and went to Nanyang.

Here in Yingchuan, because of the family, the news is very well-informed.

Zhao Yu learned that Dong Zhuo was dead.

In retrospect, it really. Dong Zhuo's is indeed deserving of death.

Then I thought that I was afraid that it would not be long before Guanzhong would be in chaos, or it would be chaotic now.

After all, there are not many descriptions in the history books, in terms of details.

It's just that Situ and Shangshu ordered Wang Yun to conspire with the ministers of the court, tie up with Lu Bu, Li Su, etc., kill Dong Zhuo, and regain control of the government. But that's all in vain. Lu Bu has few soldiers, and although Dong Zhuo is dead, there are still soldiers and horses from all directions. Li Dao, Guo Yan and other border guards, with more than 100,000 elite Xiliang troops under their command, where can Lu Bu resist?

What's more, there is a Jia Xu among them?

Thinking of these in his heart, Zhao Yu has arrived in Nanyang.

Nanyang is the northernmost county of Jingzhou, and it is the largest county in the world. It is the starting place of Guangwu Liu Xiu, and it is also the steel center of the Han family, and a large county of the first class in the world. Before the Yellow Turban, there were abundant people here. At the time of the Yellow Turban Incident, the Nanyang Yellow Turban was powerful, and the gods made Zhang Mancheng almost break through Wancheng. After the rout of the Yellow Turban, Nanyang declined, and now Liu Biao is in charge of Jingzhou, and the center of gravity is no longer in Nanyang.

The reason for this lies in Yuan Shu.

When Yuan Shu crusaded against Dong Zhuo, he was in Nanyang. Although he has already moved to Shouchun, Jiujiang County, Yangzhou, in order not to stimulate Yuan Shu, Liu Biao only sent a small official to take care of Nanyang, and the big county in the world was deserted.

Cao Mengde commented that Liu Biao is a dog guarding the household, which means that Liu Biao is afraid of war.

You can only defend the territory, but not open up the territory.

It is not to blame Liu Biao, Liu Biao himself is a literati, and now he has only entered Jingzhou for a short time, and he has just gained a firm foothold, even if he fights with Sun Jian, he doesn't want to directly attack Yuan Shu.

What's more, in the north of Nanyang, there are vicious Xiliang warlords eyeing each other, and even Wuguan is in the hands of the Xiliang army, and they can attack Nanyang at any time, so Nanyang is really a dangerous place.

So Liu Biao simply focused on the south of Hanshui, with Hanshui as the moat and Xiangyang as the center, to temporarily stabilize the situation.

When Zhao Yu went to Nanyang, what he saw was ruins and depression.

Liu Biao doesn't care now, Yuan Shu was not a person who governed the government when he occupied it, where could Nanyang get a good one between the two of them?

However, in troubled times, this is just leisure. After watching too much, Zhao Yu was also a little numb. He can't control it, so he can only wait for Cao Mengde to conquer Nanyang, and then govern it well. And the purpose of his coming here is Dushan Jade.

Dushan is more than ten miles north of Wancheng, Zhao Yu asked all the way and arrived at the foot of Dushan Mountain.

There is a village here, hidden in the dense forest in the mountains, like a paradise, revealing a different kind of peace.

Zhao Yu planned to go into the village and ask again.

A few children in the general corner were playing at the entrance of the village, and when they saw Zhao Yu, a stranger, coming, they were not afraid of him, and a teenager stepped forward and asked, "Dare to ask who the elder is, what are you doing in our village?"

Zhao Yu was slightly surprised, felt that this kid was really polite, and said with a smile: "My name is Zhao Yu, I want to ask, are you here Dushan?"

The child said, "My name is Han Shu. This is Dushan. ”

The child Han Shu turned around and pointed to the mountain behind the village, and said, "What is Mr. looking for Dushan?"

"I want to collect some Dushan jade. Zhao Yu said with a smile.

He looked at the child, and then at the small village, and felt in his heart that this village might not be the village of ordinary people. Ordinary people's teenage children, I'm afraid there are not a few who can compare with the child in front of them.

"Oh. ”

Han Shu's immature face showed a sudden look: "It turns out that the elder is for Dushan Jade." ”

Then he showed a look of pity: "I heard my grandfather say that there used to be mining, but now it seems that there is no more." ”

Zhao Yu nodded understandingly.

In troubled times, who still has the heart to mine luxury goods?

What's more, Nanyang has always been unstable, the government describes the narrative, and the people do not have that condition.
