Chapter Twenty-Three: Shelter from the Limelight
In the early morning of the second day, Lu Yu returned to the outside of White Deer City. www.wχs520.com
At this time, he was sitting in a tea shed outside the city gate, wearing a hat that he didn't know where to go, looking at the notice posted at the city gate and a portrait that looked a little like himself, his face was calm, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
I was supposed to have a disguise last night.,But after the transformation,The disguise doesn't have any effect.,Fortunately,The only thing that saw his true face was the guy who could turn into a shadow.,Fortunately, this guy can't paint.,Otherwise, it's not this portrait with only a five-point portrait.。
But despite this, this White Deer City can't enter these days, and if the treasure is lost, the three major business houses will definitely search for it, and the guy who has seen him will definitely not let him go, if he is recognized, he doesn't care, it's a big deal to escape, but Zhang Liang and they will be in trouble.
After thinking about it, Lu Yu left from the tea shed, and after walking to an uninhabited place not far away, he took out a yellow charm with an inexplicable silk thread drawn from his arms, and the white light in his hand suddenly appeared, following the lines of the silk thread, slowly spreading within the spell!
Shaoqing,
"Fourth brother, is that you, where are you?"
Zhang Liang's slightly anxious voice suddenly appeared in the talisman, which made Lu Yu's face change, and hurriedly said, "I'm outside the city, what's wrong, what's wrong with you?"
"There's no situation," Fu Zhong Zhang Liang said: "I just didn't see you when I got up in the morning, and I couldn't find you after looking around, what are you doing outside the city?"
Lu Yu replied with a sigh of relief: "I won't say that you will find out later, third brother, if there is any mission to go to other places, I want to avoid the limelight for a while." ”
"You have to ask the eldest brother and the second brother," Zhang Liang's voice replied, and then said strangely: "Temporarily avoid the limelight, what did you go to do last night? Could it be that you caused the noise in the Bailu Palace?"
Lu Yu replied: "It has something to do with me, but third brother, don't tell others, there is only one person who sees my true face, and that person will not know our relationship at all, so third brother, you can rest assured to participate in that treasure appreciation meeting, don't mention me." Almost all of them came, and I don't think they'd give up on holding the treasure fair. ”
After saying this, he didn't wait for Zhang Liang to respond, grabbed the rune paper in his hand, and then threw it away, throwing away the talisman called the transmission note.
He doesn't know how to make this kind of talisman now, so these talismans are not made by himself, they were given to him by the second brother Zhang Bao before, there are ten of them, five can contact Zhang Liang, five can contact Zhang Bao, and the two parties must hold a special talisman paper to contact.
There are two ways to make talismans, one is to draw talismans with true qi, and the other is to use true qi.
The power of the talisman drawn with true qi is powerful, and any person can shoot and use it immediately, but it is difficult to make; the power of the talisman drawn without true qi is slightly reduced, and it must be filled with true qi beforehand, although the process is not very slow, at most ten seconds, but it is still not as good as the true qi talisman, but if you don't instill true qi, this kind of talisman is relatively easy to draw and draw.
Lu Yu has always been accustomed to using true qi to draw talismans, so he can use them on the talisman, but this does not mean that he can't draw non-true qi talismans, but he doesn't need to.
Spend a little more time making powerful ones instead of spending less time making weak ones, Lu Yu prefers the former, after all, he doesn't have anything that needs a lot of time to deal with now, and he is very idle every day.
After snuffing out this talisman and thinking about it, Lu Yu took out another transmission note to instill true qi, and then said directly without waiting for the other side to speak: "Second brother, is there any mission in a remote place, junior brother, I want to wander around." ”
Hearing his words, a suspicious greeting came from the rune paper in his hand: "I said fourth brother, aren't you participating in the treasure appraisal meeting with your third brother in White Deer City, what's wrong, is something wrong?"
"It's not a big deal," Lu Yu replied, "It's just that I robbed people of something, and then people are now looking for me all over the city, and I want to avoid the limelight." ”
Hearing this, the rune paper in his hand was silent for a moment, and then Zhang Bao's voice was a little inexplicable: "Fourth brother, although there are no rules in our family, but this matter of robbing things, are you?"
"Second brother, I have no choice but to do this," Lu Yu sighed and said: "There is no injustice and no hatred, who will have nothing to do to rob other people's things, the key is that I am really in a hurry, little brother." ”
He was telling the truth, he didn't have anything to do with the three major trading houses, and it stands to reason that even if he needed those two beads, he wouldn't grab them directly. But at the moment, he can't help but rob it, the Yellow Turban Rebellion is at the juncture, maybe it will break out that day, why not seize the opportunity to increase his strength.
Besides, the three major commercial houses are wealthy, and the place where they lost their treasures is the territory of the Yuan family, which is famous for its gold in Kyushu, so it should be somewhat compensated.
Even if there is no compensation, it will not make them break their muscles and bones, at most it will only be a drop in the bucket. So although Lu Yu felt a little guilty in his heart, it was just a trace of it.
Lu Yu's words fell, and Zhang Bao in the rune paper asked him again if he had any urgent use, but he was all confused by Lu Yu, he couldn't say, you are about to die, I went to grab things in order to save you.
That's right
Although Lu Yu joined the Taiping Dao, it was not to overthrow the Han court, he just wanted to rescue the three brothers who might face death in the future, as for what Zhang Jiao said, it was just an excuse for him to join.
Although Zhang Jiao's words are very credible, there are still many doubts, such as what did the Han court do?
For example, there are so many capable people in Kyushu, and there are even hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the imperial court, is it only Zhang Jiao and those Nanhua immortals who know about this? If they know, don't they have any other way? ?
Therefore, the overthrow of the Han Dynasty was not the main purpose, he just wanted to rescue Zhang Jiao and the others. As for saying that he joined the Taiping Dao, Lu Yu felt that it was not a big deal, as soon as the Yellow Turban Rebellion was a foregone conclusion, even if he did not have himself, according to the development of "history", it would definitely break out, and eventually exhaust the last trace of the strength of the Han Dynasty.
Second, if you join the yellow scarf, you can at least know what you know, so that you don't know anything, and your eyes are black.
Of course, some of the teachings in the Yellow Turban and Zhang Jiao's explanation to himself were also a reason for Lu Yu to join, but even if he didn't have these, he would choose to join.
It's just that if Zhang Jiao didn't explain to himself, even if he joined, he wouldn't be unwilling.
As for the Han court, the current Han Dynasty is indeed rotten to the roots, not to mention whether it can be saved, even if it is saved, Lu Yu does not have the ability to save it.
He felt that he was just a willful and reckless man, but he had no talent for governing the world. The thoughts of the emperor in his heart are not enough to give up everything to support those greedy faint monarchs, not to mention, he himself has no intention of supporting the monarch from the modern age of the earth, he just admires the civilized spirit of the great Han.
Obviously, in this world, the Han Dynasty in this era did not have any majestic Han spirit at all, and some were just the kind of greedy energy that desperately squeezed the people.
So although he felt a little sorry that the Han Dynasty in this world was about to be destroyed, he no longer had the intention of saving, and he had a faint idea in his heart, which made him even look forward to the destruction of the imperial court
Although this idea is only an idea for the time being, it may not be impossible to realize, that is, to directly or indirectly establish an ideal Han Dynasty of its own!
Zhang Bao finally gave himself two choices, one was to go to Manzhou to develop the Taiping Road there, but Lu Yu was not interested in this.
The barbarian state is the territory of the Southern Barbarian Tribe, full of mountains and forests, and the people of the Southern Barbarian Tribes are extremely xenophobic, and the aliens generally believe in heavenly ghosts, so he will not be uncomfortable going there without nothing.
It is said that there is only one town in the Taiping Road territory there now, and most of the people in it are from other states to follow to the barbarians, there are not many people in the foreign race at all, not to mention the difficulties in life, and they are often attacked by the barbarians in various ways
So Lu Yu decisively gave up this choice.
The second option is to compare with his appetite, that is, to go to Zhongzhou, but thinking about Zhang Bao's previous words, Lu Yu couldn't help frowning,
Zhang Bao told himself that if he chose to go to Zhongzhou, then he must obey a person's orders after he gets there, and he must not do anything to make trouble or make an eye-catching behavior, that is, if Lu Yu wants to go to Zhongzhou, all his actions will be restricted
In this regard,
Although Lu Yu was reluctant, he still agreed. didn't make any unreasonable requests, the second brother Zhang Bao let him do this, there must be his reasons, maybe the matter there is more important, and he can't do it.
Of course
In addition, he can choose to go wherever he wants, and no one will care about him, but if he does this, he will lose the role of joining the Taiping Dao, and if he really chooses to do this, it is better not to join the Taiping Dao at all and lurk in the shadows.
So Lu Yu decided that when he arrived in Zhongzhou, he would definitely do what Zhang Bao asked. Now that you have chosen to join, you have to give up something, or restrain yourself.
Of course
Whether he can restrain or not, he can't guarantee it
On the 1203rd day of the Han calendar in Kyushu, on the 15th day of February of the year of Guihai, Lu Yu officially embarked on the sea route to Zhongzhou, and after arriving there, he obeyed the orders of a guy named Ma Yuanyi.
And at this time,
It is less than a year before the year of Jiazi in 1204
