When Xia Houen heard Zhang Xiao say this, he immediately had a reason, and immediately retorted: "Actually, the Yellow Turban Army is not as legitimate as you said, you may not know something." [Ran^Text^Library] []”

Zhang Xiao felt a little inexplicable, the doctrine of the Yellow Turban Army was to save the people and establish a harmonious dynasty, could there be something wrong, and hurriedly asked: "Then what happened? Are you not fooling me?"

Xia Houen assured: "I am absolutely true, the Yellow Turban Army was indeed a movement organized by the people at first, but later it gradually became a thief rebellion, every time they captured a city, they burned, killed, abused and abused, all evil, was called the Yellow Turban Thief, which caused the world's indignation, so all the princes and powerful groups suppressed it, I don't know if you have heard of the name of the Yellow Turban Thief?"

Zhang Xiao had heard of the various evil deeds of the Yellow Turban Army, and originally thought that it was just a statement to frame them, but now according to what Xia Houen said, this is not fake, and he didn't expect the Yellow Turban Army to become like this, which is really chilling.

Joining Cao Cao's forces is indeed very helpful for his actions here, but how to ensure that this is not a trap made Zhang Xiao a little hesitant, and Xia Houen also saw that Zhang Xiao was a little unwilling, so he thought to himself Zhang Xiao and said: "If you really don't believe it, then I can only take you to the emperor, and then you will understand." ”

Zhang Xiao didn't expect such a way to deal with it, and promised: "I can still see the emperor? This is good, I also want to see what this emperor is like, can I go now?"

Xia Houen replied: "Not today, seeing the emperor is not to say that you can see you, but I have my own way, I should be able to do it tomorrow, why don't I take you to see the emperor tomorrow, and then you will know whether it is suitable to join us." ”

Since this decision has been made, Zhang Xiao is looking forward to it and said, "Okay, you will come and inform me when you go to see the emperor tomorrow." ”

Xia Houen smiled instead: "Who said that I will inform you, you can leave now, and come to me at any time tomorrow, it is not particularly difficult for me to see the emperor." ”

Zhang Xiao looked at Xia Houen in surprise, and asked with some disbelief, "Can I go?"

Xia Houen shook his head and smiled: "You have proven that you are an immortal cultivator, even if I want to lock you up, you can escape at will, so why bother? In addition to looking for the Qingyu Sword, you also have to find other immortal swords, joining us can be regarded as the best cover, I sincerely invite you to join, I hope you can consider it." ”

Zhang Xiao also knew that with Cao Cao's current power, joining them was undoubtedly a good choice, but he had to think clearly before he could decide, and he would wait until he met the emperor before deciding, so he said: "Then wait until tomorrow, but if I want to see you, how can I come in, I can't go in and out of Sikong Mansion at will." ”

Xia Houen hurriedly took out a waist card from his waist and said: "This is my waist card, as long as you hold it, you can enter and exit Sikong Mansion at will, you can come to me tomorrow with this." ”

Zhang Xiao took the waist card and looked at it carefully, this waist card is made of sterling silver, the carving is very meticulous, put it into the waist, and walked towards the door.

Seeing that Zhang Xiao wanted to leave, Xia Houen hurriedly stopped him, and said with some twist: "Wait, I don't know if you can take me as an apprentice, I have always dreamed of becoming an immortal cultivator, what do you think of my conditions? ”

Xia Houen's words really made Zhang Xiao confused, he actually wanted to learn immortal arts, Zhang Xiao looked back at him, feeling both novel and complicated, he never thought that someone wanted to worship him as a master, and felt that he was just a junior, but when it came to accepting apprentices, he was still a little excited, but he couldn't be careless, maybe it might disturb the cultivation world.

Zhang Xiao couldn't directly refuse Xia Houen, after all, he had always taken care of himself, so he said: "Then you have to wait until I confirm your character, immortal cultivators must not have any evil thoughts." ”

Xia Houen hurriedly ran to Zhang Xiao's side, sent him away from Sikong Mansion, and said: "No problem, although you investigate, you are not afraid of shadows, but you have to promise me that if you think I can take me as an apprentice." ”

Zhang Xiao finally knew Xia Houen's true intentions, it turned out that he wanted to become an immortal cultivator, and said as he walked: "Do you want to cultivate immortals like that? What about your position in the army? What about these family members of yours?"

Xia Houen swore and said: "You naturally don't have to worry about this, I have my own arrangements, and I will definitely arrange it properly." ”

Zhang Xiao also needed Xia Houen's help now, so he decided to promise him first, and said: "That's no problem, cultivators will do what they say, but you can't act recklessly." ”

Xia Houen became even more excited, and said again and again: "Certainly, you are going to find your companions now, right? They should be staying in the Su family now, and I will let my personal soldiers escort you." ”

Without waiting for Zhang Xiao to speak, Xia Houen said to the person standing in the middle of the courtyard gate: "Xie Long, you send this chivalrous warrior back to Su's house, remember to send him safely." ”

Zhang Xiao said a little unhappily when he heard this: "Am I a child or an old man, do I need someone else to escort me?"

Xia Houen hurriedly apologized and said: "No, I didn't mean that, I was too excited, this is my guard, it is Gao Zhan, the son of Gao Shun, Lu Bu's subordinate back then, the word Jielong, let him lead the way for you." ”

Zhang Xiao asked Xia Houen again: "Then what about those magic weapons of mine? When will you return them to me, telling you that there are very dangerous things in them, and there is no chance of remedying them in case of an accident." ”

Xia Houen hurriedly said: "Please rest assured about this, I will definitely return it to you, but there are some procedures that need to be completed in the middle, and it will take a few days, and I will ask Xie Long to inform you at that time." ”

Since this is the case, Zhang Xiao has no other way, anyway, there is time, just wait, and then walk towards the door of Sikong Mansion.

Coming to the gate of Sikong Mansion, Gao Zhan continued to lead the way in front, Zhang Xiao followed without looking back, and had to discuss the next things with Zhang Xiao, Xia Houen kept saying goodbye to Zhang Xiao at the door, wishing that Zhang Xiao didn't leave.

Gao Zhan's physical fitness seems to be very good, and his walking speed is like a wind, but he didn't say a word along the way, and he didn't look at Zhang Xiao, even if Zhang Xiao got lost, it is estimated that he would not care.

It didn't take long for him to finally arrive at the Su family's tea warehouse, Gao Zhan finally spoke, and said in a deep voice: "The destination has arrived, farewell." ”

Gao Zhan seemed to be talking to himself, and turned around and returned after speaking, Zhang Xiao felt that he was very strange, as if he didn't want to look at others, and would only do things according to orders, no matter what happened and how it ended.

Looking at this big mansion, it is really huge, but what makes Zhang Xiao puzzled is that such a large building is unguarded, the door is so open, and no one stops you when you walk in.

Zhang Xiao yelled inside: "Is anyone there? Is there anyone inside?"

After waiting for a while, there was still no response quietly, Zhang Xiao guessed that Zhang Yao was still in Sikong Mansion now, but he had already arrived here, so he naturally would not go back, so he slowly walked inside.

As soon as he walked to the lobby, Zhang Xiao heard a series of hurried footsteps, running in his direction, so he stood and waited for him, don't be considered a thief.

When she saw Zhang Xiao, she asked, "Is that you the one who was shouting just now?" ”

Zhang Xiao hurriedly explained: "I'm not here to buy tea, my name is Zhang Xiao, may I ask if there is a person named Zhang Xiao who lives here with you." ”

Yahuan suddenly realized and said: "It turns out that you are Zhang Xiao, aren't you still locked up in Sikong Mansion? Why did you come out, you come with me, but don't talk, we are meeting important guests now." ”

Zhang Xiao didn't say anything, just a little strange, important guests? The guests of the demon cultivators should not be ordinary people, should they have something to do with the affairs of the assassins, right? It is better to take a look on the side first.

Zhang Xiao followed Yahuan to the outer hall of the tea storehouse, and found that Zhang Yao and Su Layer were both here, and there was a young but old man sitting on the main seat, opposite standing an equally high-spirited young man, and next to him stood two well-dressed subordinates.
