Sure enough, Fang Linyan got the prompt after a while:

"Contractor No. ZB419, you successfully escaped from the Changbanpo battlefield and are forty miles away from Cao Jun's central camp, and Zuo Ciye, who is responsible for tracking you, has gone into seclusion!"

"So, you're going to get a two-hour buffer."

"Two hours later, Zuo Ci's disciple Sun Xian will take over the tracking of you. If you still carry the artifact: Qingzhi Sword, your position will continue to be locked."

"However, the locking period has been extended to one hour (two hours). At the same time, every time Sun Xian continues to track you three times, he needs to sit quietly with his eyes closed and adjust his breathing for two hours."

When the teammates met again, it was of course a joyous gathering. Crespo, Goat, Vulture and others looked at the green sword for a long time. They were really jealous! They just wanted to take the "unable to take out of this world" underneath.

"The line of words was directly erased.

At this time, Fang Linyan straightened up and said with a smile:

"Since the distinguished guest is here, why don't you show up yet?"

Hearing what Fang Linyan said, the others were startled and hurriedly put themselves on guard. However, they saw the silence of the forest around them, and no movement could be seen at all.

After a while, the goat said in shock:

"Boss? Is there anyone?"

Fang Linyan laughed and said:

"I guessed that the back-up plan I had prepared before would be coming soon, so I deliberately said something deceptive."

Then he looked at the cave next to him:

"Have you gone to see it before? Has Zhang Xu's body been touched?"

Max immediately said:

"Poached."

Fang Linyan nodded, and then after two minutes, he smiled loudly and said:

"Since the distinguished guest is here, why don't you show up yet?"

The rest of the people couldn't help but smile knowingly, but found that no one responded.

But after a few minutes, when Fang Linyan said the same words again, the bushes nearby suddenly moved, and the air there quickly became like frosted glass, and then three people emerged from there.

The leader was none other than Lieutenant Liu of the Cao Army who had dealt with Fang Linyan and the others before, and a woman wearing a bamboo hat and a veil.

There is an old man standing behind the woman. Although he seems to be holding a cane, he is energetic, with many wrinkles on his face, and his eyes are as clear and flawless as a baby's!

The woman was a little surprised and said:

"We just arrived here using the technique of shrinking the ground into an inch, and also used the secret leaf-tapping silent talisman of our sect. How did you find out that we were here?"

Fang Linyan laughed and said:

"It's a small skill, not worth mentioning."

Captain Liu's face looked ugly at this time. He stood up and said to Fang Linyan:

"Fang Yan! You killed Xia Houen and rebelled against Cao Ying. It's a pleasure. But I will be more implicated. Do you know?"

Fang Linyan smiled and said:

"The mere official position in Cao Cao's camp shouldn't be in your heart, right? Besides, in your heart, I'm afraid you have never truly regarded Cao Cao as your lord. The only lord in your heart is the great virtuous teacher.

It’s just a seat.”

Liu Xiaowei's expression suddenly changed and he said:

"What a great teacher, don't talk nonsense!"

"Hahaha!" Fang Linyan laughed loudly:

"Now, when it is time to be honest and honest, you are still hiding it. Are you still afraid that I will go to Cao Ying to betray you?"

Yes, Fang Linyan had already determined the identity of this seemingly self-contained group of people in Cao's camp. They were the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army that swept the world!

At first, Fang Linyan really didn't think about this until he met Sui Gu who came to intercept and kill him, and the old man from the "Luo Herbs" family took out the "Dahan Pingbei Zhonglang General" token.

Sui Gu himself was one of the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, but he was later recruited and surrendered.

Of course, this might be a coincidence.

However, the front side of the token has the words "Dahan Pingbei Zhonglang General" and the back side has a flying swallow. With a little investigation, it is actually obvious that the person who issued the token is none other than the Black Mountain Yellow Turban.

Army leader: Zhang Yan!

This guy was a fellow countryman of Zhao Yun, but he was one of the best among the Yellow Turbans. He defected to the imperial court early and was named Pingbei Zhonglang General, and was given the nickname Feiyan.

Not only that, Cao Cao's prosperity that year began when he incorporated the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in the third year of Chuping.

At that time, Cao Cao's strength was still relatively weak, and he failed to defeat the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in a head-on battle. However, he made the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army surrender to him without any bloodshed. After the surrender, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army included a million people, including their family members.

Three hundred thousand people are able-bodied.

This allows Cao Cao's strength to expand rapidly!

Although the history of this process has not been recorded, it would definitely be impossible if there was no compromise or PY transaction.

According to the analysis of the situation at that time, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang had all been dead for six years. There were many knowledgeable people among the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army who knew that the situation was over.

In the end, there was no way out for being a rebel, so he joined Cao Cao. The prerequisite was to ensure the safety of the Yellow Turban senior officials.

Although Cao Cao was a traitor, his charisma and love for talents were indescribable. What's more, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army was just a piece of fat tonic to him at that time. After eating it and digesting it, he would really

It's Wang Ba's foundation.

To be honest, without the support of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, Cao Cao would not even be qualified to fight Yuan Shao in the Guandu Battle!

In this case, although the positions of senior generals in Cao's army were controlled, a large number of junior officers, veterans, etc. were actually members of the previous Yellow Turban Army.

There are also many factions in Cao's army:

There is a group of brothers represented by Cao Ren, Cao Hong and others.

There are factions related to Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, etc.

There are factions close to Xu Chu, Yu Jin, etc.

There is also the faction of surrendering generals formed by Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Zhang He, Zhang Yan, etc.

In addition, hidden behind this are the Yellow Turbans who do not interact with each other at all, but will help each other when something happens.

Not only that, the faction that surrendered generals and the Yellow Turban Party were actually in an alliance, because both parties were weak, and Xu Huang, Zhang Yan, Sui Gu and others were all originally in the rank of descended generals.

With so many factions under his command, Cao Cao actually turned a blind eye and even encouraged them.

In fact, for Cao Ah'an, or even for any person in a superior position, it is a good thing to have many factions, and the subordinates are all monolithic. So what if someone is concerned about the position of their boss? What should I do if you are easily ignored?

Cao Cao was also very tolerant towards the Yellow Turbans under his command, as long as they did not betray him.

Maybe this sounds a bit exaggerated, but in fact, it is not surprising at all in terms of Cao Cao's actions. It seems that Cao Cao gives people the impression that he is jealous and easy to hold grudges, but this is not the case.

During the Battle of Guandu, Chen Lin wrote a campaign against Cao Cao, which was much more vicious than the trolls who scolded me in book circles. Cao Cao broke out in a cold sweat after reading the campaign!

But later Chen Lin was captured and transferred to Cao Cao's sect. Cao Cao asked him a few questions, then smiled and gave him an official position.

If this is nothing, Zhang Xiu caused great harm to Cao Cao. He shot Cao Cao with an arrow and killed Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang and general Dian Wei!

This was the revenge of killing his son, the hatred of his confidants, and he was almost killed.

But later Zhang Xiu surrendered, and Cao Cao was very tolerant of him. In order to forgive him, he even let his son Cao Jun marry Zhang Xiu's daughter.

Later, Zhang Xiu followed Cao Cao in the southern and northern wars, and held military power until 207 AD, when he died of illness on the way to conquer Wuhuan. At this time, he had surrendered to Cao Cao for eight years, and had been promoted to several positions and settled in the city.

Reached 2,000 households.

It can be seen that Cao Cao is really very generous. In order to conquer the world and recruit talents, no matter how great the hatred is, he will just let it go.

This is probably the reason why he can bring back the Yellow Turban Army under his command.

After Fang Linyan killed Xia Houen, he released the paper crane that Colonel Liu had given him before, with the information he had given on it:

"The Mermaid Pearl and the artifact Qingzhi Sword are both in my hand."

"I'm just waiting for an hour where Zhang Xu's body is buried. You can only come with four people at most. If there's one more person, I'll turn around and leave immediately."

Although he is now a public enemy of Cao Ying, Fang Linyan firmly believes that the other party will definitely come!

The Mermaid Pearl alone is something they are determined to obtain, not to mention a divine weapon!

***

At this time, Fang Linyan looked at the woman, cupped his hands and said:

"Here at Xiaxiayan, since it seems that a girl is here to talk to me this time, I will take the liberty of asking her her name."

The woman smiled slightly and took off her veil, revealing a charming face.

To put it simply, she is an ordinary woman with good facial features, a MILF, and she looks to be in her thirties, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes are quite obvious.

But if you look closely, you can see that her eyes are dull and even have some obvious dents, so she is obviously blind.

"I am Zhang Zhi, and I have met Mr. Fang."

Fang Linyan turned his wrist, and the Mermaid Pearl in his palm began to roll. Then he pointed at the green sword held by Crespo:

"To be honest, I don't intend to keep these two things for myself. I have already contacted Liu Xuande and Sun Quan, and they both expressed great interest."

Speaking of this, Fang Linyan changed his mind and said:

"However, I miss our old friendship the most. Colonel Liu spoke up for justice before and favored us, so I will give priority to trading with you."

"However, these two items are the best in the world. Our asking price is not low. Can the girl make the decision?"

Zhang Zhi nodded and said:

"I am a woman and my reputation is not well known. It is no wonder that you have such thoughts."

Having said this, she said warmly to the old man next to her:

"Mr. Xu, I'm done."

The old man nodded slightly, and then handed over a seemingly ordinary umbrella, and Zhang Zhi easily pulled out a crutch from inside the umbrella.

This crutch is brown and looks very ordinary at first glance. There are many knots on it. It would be very harmonious for an old farmer to use it as a crutch.

However, after looking at it for a few more times, you will feel that this crutch becomes more and more comfortable. Every bend and arc on it seems to be telling the truth between heaven and earth.

At this time, Vulture had already said simply in the team channel:

"Boss, this woman's identity is not simple! This is another piece of equipment that is close to the power of an artifact!"

Fang Linyan almost said "fuck" before blurting out, is this artifact a Chinese cabbage?!!

In an ordinary adventure world, there are usually no more than three artifacts. Even if this is a gold main difficulty world, there are no more than ten artifacts at most! And you can count them on your fingers.

In this world, the number one artifact must be the jade seal that suppresses the fate of the world. This thing was passed down from the Qin Dynasty and even became a symbol of the emperor's suppression of the world.

An emperor who does not have a jade seal to pass down the country is even considered to be unqualified for his virtue! Therefore, the jade seal to pass down the country deserves to be ranked first among the artifacts.

The Qingzhi Sword is considered a divine weapon, so the equally famous Yitian Sword must also be a divine weapon.

The reputation of the Red Rabbit Horse is undoubtedly the first among the famous horses in Chinese history. It also has an attribute that greatly increases the favorability of men: it can be ridden! Therefore, it is well deserved to be included in the order of artifacts.

Weapons such as the Qinglong Yanyue Sword have also left their names in ancient history. Their fame is by no means faster than that of the Qingzhi Sword, so it is natural for them to be regarded as sacred weapons.

The same goes for the Zhangba Snake Spear, but the Yanyue Sword is more famous, so there is a half chance that it is a divine weapon. As for Liu Bei's double sword, it is mostly of legendary quality, mainly because its owner held back.

Zhuge Liang was extremely famous, no less famous than Liu Guanzhang. Fang Linyan judged that he also had a magical weapon, but this was a typical example of the owner being too famous, which limited the reputation of the equipment.

Therefore, the artifact on Zhuge Liang's body may be the fan he holds: the White Feather Fan!

It may also be the weapon he invented: Zhuge Liannu.

It may also be the Bagua clothes he is wearing, or the Dunjia Heavenly Book, or the "Master's Guide" that has been passed down through the ages.

***

After letting his thoughts wander for a while, Fang Linyan turned his attention to the long staff held by the woman again, and saw Zhang Zhi calmly saying:

"This sword is called the Nine-section Staff. It was used by my late father to cure illnesses and save people, and to travel around the world! Later, he used it to stir up the world and shake up most of the Han Dynasty!"

"And the Mermaid Pearl in your hands is another treasure refined by my father! Before its power was broken, it had another name, called the Muni Pearl! I taught you the magical talisman water used to treat diseases.

, which is soaked in it.”

"Nine-section staff, Muni beads... Talisman water, save people?"

These thoughts flashed through Fang Linyan's mind, and he said in shock.

"Could it be that your father is actually a great teacher?"

Zhang Zhi nodded, and Su Rong performed a woman's curtsey:

"So, now Mr. Fang Yan, can you think that I am in charge?"

At this moment, Fang Linyan felt like the truth was coming to light. The truth about this Mermaid Pearl was actually like this!

At that time, Zhang Jiao single-handedly founded Taiping Dao, traveling through the prefecture and counties, accumulating prestige along the way. He relied on talisman water to cure diseases, which was extremely effective, and then promoted the doctrine and developed believers! In the end, he successfully organized a movement that shook the foundation of the Han Dynasty and swept thousands of people.

A great uprising of tens of thousands of people!

Where did this magical talisman come from? It was the bead in her hand! Although Zhang Zhi said that this thing was still damaged at this time, it was not impossible to repair it. No wonder this woman was determined to win it.

So Fang Linyan nodded and said:

"Of course...are you sure you want both treasures?"

Zhang Zhi smiled and said:

"If you have the opportunity to acquire a divine object like the Qingzhi Sword, then why not?"

Fang Linyan pointed at Qingzhi sword and said:

"Let me make it clear first, the Qingzhi Sword has the dragon energy of the Han Dynasty on it, and whoever gets it will be tracked by Zuo Ci's people to get their location."

The old man following Zhang Zhi waved his hand and said calmly:

"It doesn't matter. With me here, Zuo Yuanfang's disciples and grandsons can't do any tricks."

Fang Linyan glanced at the old man and said:

"Didn't you ask for this old gentleman's surname?"

Zhang Zhi said seriously:

"This is my uncle, Xu Shao, Xu Zijiang."

After Fang Linyan heard this, he took a deep breath. He was another extravagant figure who left a name in history! He was a poisonous-tongued senior and the ancestor of trolls!

This person was good at fortune-telling and commenting on people in history, and he was quite incisive and accurate. After his death, someone robbed his tomb and found that only his clothes were left inside, so there was a legend that his body was turned into an immortal.

One of the activities that Xu Shao hosted in his hometown was to comment on characters or works at the beginning of each month. Intuitively, it was the Han Dynasty version of Maoyan and Douban.

This event is mostly held at the beginning of the month, so it is also called "Yuedan Commentary" or "Yuedan Tao". No matter who it is, once they comment on the topic, their worth is a hundredfold, and it is spread among the world as a good talk. Therefore, it is famous far and wide, and it is very popular for a while.

When Cao Cao was not well-known, he paid a lot of money for Xu Shao to review him, and Xu Shao gave him ten words: A capable minister in times of trouble, a traitor in troubled times!

Ten words can be said to describe Cao Cao's life.

Cao Cao was overjoyed and treated Xu Shao very politely.

Zhang Zhi was able to freely enter and exit Cao Cao's camp. In addition to the fact that she had no intention of confronting Cao Cao, having Xu Shao's protection was also a key factor.

So Fang Linyan hurriedly stepped forward and said:

"Greetings to Mr. Xu, I have admired his name for so long and it is like thunder in my ears!"

Xu Shao nodded, and after sizing up Fang Linyan and others, his expression suddenly changed slightly:

"The faces of you guys are so strange. You must have been dead for a long time! Now you are living rich and wealthy. Is it possible that some expert can change your fate for you?"

After hearing this, Fang Linyan and others smiled bitterly:

"This is indeed true, but for this reason we have worshiped under this powerful disciple and been driven by him."

Xu Shao nodded, closed his eyes again and said no more.

Zhang Zhi said at this time:

"What do you want?"

Fang Linyan and others exchanged glances, and then Fang Linyan said simply:

"The first condition is a wooden deed of five taxes."
Chapter completed!
