You can even guess what the deputy leader wants to do!
However, this way, it is destined that one of the two of them will die within the five buckets of rice!
He must die too!
That scene was not what Zhang Lu wanted to see.
The relationship between him and Zhang Xiu is not as bad as outsiders say.
In fact, the two brothers were so close that even the position of leader was given to each other for a long time. In the end, because of Zhang Xiu's tricks, the position of leader finally fell to Zhang Lu.
On the body.
At that time, Leader Zhang was angry for a long time and ignored this junior brother for three hours.
However, the raw rice has been cooked, and he has received the Taoist tokens. In the end, naturally he can only let it go and sit in the position of the leader with peace of mind, working hard and long for the development and growth of the Five Pecks of Rice Tao.
It was not easy for Wu Dou Mi Road to improve.
However, at this time, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out.
Because of the chaos of the Yellow Turban Taiping Road, the whole world was in chaos.
Although the imperial court clearly issued instructions to ban sects, officials and powerful people in various places also paid more attention to these sects and began to use various means to suppress, infiltrate and even control them.
This put Wudou Mi Road, which had just made some progress back then, into crisis.
In desperation, we can only find ways to make those officials feel that they are not important and cannot pose a threat.
So, what's the best way?
Infighting!
Internal division!
There is no need for those officials to say that Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu took the lead and spontaneously led the Daozhong believers to divide into two factions and fight with each other, resulting in countless deaths and injuries!
This scene naturally fell into the eyes of those officials.
Seeing such five buckets of rice, the officials' wariness was lifted.
After all, a five-peck rice road that keeps fighting among itself is just a bubble even if it expands again.
Poke it and he explodes!
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, the Five Dou Rice Road is not a threat at all.
Naturally, I won't take it seriously.
Otherwise, Liu Yan would not have chosen to conquer the Five Dou Rice Road and control Yizhou through the Five Dou Rice Road!
All of this also proves that Zhang Xiu and Zhang Lu's acting skills are very good, and they deceived those guys for a time.
They even had to believe it.
"Maybe we have other options." Zhang Lu stared at Zhang Xiu for a long time before speaking out and saying these words.
Hearing this, Zhang Xiu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Maybe. But as far as the current situation is concerned, we have no choice. This is the only way we can choose!"
"Today's court is in chaos. Liu Zhoumu has been in Yizhou for a long time. With our help, he has established a firm foothold in the entire Yizhou."
"Just now, the boy from the outer sect sent a message, saying that a hussar general from the imperial court came to Xicheng County with Liu Yan's soldiers. If Pindao guessed correctly, he is going to attack Hanzhong!"
"Eradicate Su Gu and completely incorporate Hanzhong into his own territory, and you, senior brother, are also one of his goals."
Zhang Lu frowned slightly, a look of shock flashed in his eyes, lowered his voice and asked: "Do you think Liu Yan is going to attack Pindao?"
"It's possible. However, their first target is definitely not the Five Pecks of Rice, but the Infinite Sect!"
"Use Wuliang Sect as an excuse to send troops to kill all the officials and forces in Yizhou who are not satisfied with us. By then, we will unify Yizhou and have the entire Yizhou in our hands!" Zhang Xiu replied.
At this moment, he looked less like a Taoist and more like a counselor. In his words, he had already explained the current situation in Yizhou and Liu Yan's future action plan.
Zhang Lu fell into silence after hearing this. He frowned slightly, but he couldn't help but have some other thoughts in his heart.
"Perhaps, we can remain as we are now! Or, junior brother, you can step in and deliberately curry favor with Liu Zhoumu. In this case, I think that Liu Zhoumu will be happy to see you and I fighting to the death!" Zhang Lu tried his hand.
asked a question.
However, when Zhang Xiu heard this suggestion, he just smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said: "No, senior brother, please don't underestimate our great Zhou Mu."
"Furthermore, my wife said that the Zhou Mu came to Yizhou to find dragon energy. If this man really becomes the king in Yizhou in the future, how will you and I, our senior fellow apprentices, deal with themselves?
"
"It would be better for me, Senior Brother Cheng Quan, to assist the Master Zhou Mu wholeheartedly. In this way, I, the Five Pecks of Rice, may have a chance to become a state religion!"
When the word "state religion" was mentioned, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but reveal a trace of yearning on his face.
Let me ask you, among the sects in the world, who doesn’t want to be recognized by the emperor and respected as the state religion? From then on, thousands of people will become believers. This is a great good!
It is better to govern a country by people than by teachings; it is better to govern a country by etiquette than by teachings!
If all people in the world can join my sect, everyone will gain great wisdom and the way to ascend to heaven, this will be a great good!
All these are what Zhang Xiu has in mind.
"Senior brother, there is no need to say any more. Foolish brother has already made a calculation in his heart. It is useless for senior brother to say more."
Seeing that Zhang Lu was about to say something when he opened his mouth, Zhang Xiu immediately said.
Hearing this, Zhang Lu swallowed back the words that had just rushed into his throat. He was speechless for a long time and could only look up at Zhang Xiu and sighed helplessly.
"That's all, Brother Wei knows your character. In this case, Brother Wei doesn't say much. These matters will be discussed later. What we should pay attention to now is the intention of the person from Xicheng County. Before him
Before arriving, Pindao had not received any news at all."
"I also asked my junior brother to take care of the congregation on my behalf. I have to go to Xicheng County in person and pay homage to the hussar general." Zhang Lu said.
Zhang Xiu had no objection.
Xiao Wen’s identity and the relationship between him and Zhang Lu.
Zhang Lu had informed him before.
Therefore, he knew something about Xiao Wen, the cavalry general.
Now when I heard Zhang Lu talking about it, he naturally did not stop him. He just raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Senior brother, are you worried that something will happen during their trip?"
Zhang Lu shook his head: "A few days ago, my mother Fei Ge sent a letter, informing them of what happened to them and Liu Yan. However, the letter only gave a general outline. We still have to go and see the hussar general to know the specific situation.
"
"We are not on our way home, but we are here with a group of soldiers. This step taken by Mr. Liu is really thought-provoking! I need to think about it carefully."
Zhang Xiu nodded. Hearing the fear in his senior brother's heart, he did not stop him. He bowed his hands and said:
"Senior brother, I'm just leaving. I have a poor Taoist here, so I don't have any intention to worry about the matters in the teaching." Zhang Xiu said while cupping his hands.
Zhang Lu nodded, stood up and walked out.
However, just when he was about to step up the steps and leave the secret passage in the secret room, Zhang Xiu behind him called him out, and lowered his voice and said:
"Senior brother, there is no need to worry about the Taoist man under my command. He is just a chess piece of the poor Taoist. He is even more of an abandoned piece!"
"I wanted to kill him directly, but if I can use this guy to pull out the unstable factors in the sect, it would be a good thing. When his value is exhausted, Pindao will behead him without my senior brother's orders!
"
"I will never pose any threat to my nephew!"
Zhang Lu paused, looked back at Zhang Xiu, and sighed helplessly: "Junior brother, you should know that this is not what you are worried about."
"That's all. You have been smarter than Ping Tao since you were a child. You should also understand the principles more thoroughly than Ping Tao. Just do what you want and don't let the sharp blade in your hand bite back and hurt yourself instead."
After saying that, Zhang Lu didn't hesitate and walked out immediately.
…
In Xicheng County, at dusk in the evening, the Five Pecks of Rice Taoist leader appeared outside the city gate.
Standing alone, on both sides of him were the soldiers arranged by Xiao Wen.
Among these soldiers, there is a passage that can directly enter the city.
However, although this passage has been left open, there are not many people who dare to enter the city through this passage.
As for the reason?
That would be too easy!
Nothing but because the aura erupting from these soldiers is too fierce!
Once the bloody evil energy that has been on the battlefield for a long time breaks out, it is very difficult for anyone to resist.
Let alone anyone who dares to walk through this passage?
There were many people coming to the city gate, but none of them dared to enter the city through the city gate.
I would rather walk around the city wall for half a day and enter through another gate than dare to get into trouble with those soldiers.
Of course, these people would be afraid, but Zhang Lu would not.
Wearing a Taoist robe and holding a fly whisk in his hand, he walked very slowly and took small steps. But every time he took a step forward, he could see the surrounding mountains and rivers receding.
In a few steps, but unknowingly, we arrived at the entrance of the city gate.
As for those soldiers?
When Zhang Lu entered the city, he didn't even react. He just felt that his eyes were blurred and no one was there.
In the courtyard, he was meditating in seclusion... Xiao Wen, who was browsing the player forum, heard a knock on the door.
Xiao Wen stood up, pushed the door open, and saw Dian Wei standing outside the door. When he saw Xiao Wen, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he lowered his voice and said: "My lord, Taoist Zhang of the Five Dou Rice Road is here."
Xiao Wen nodded, indicating that he knew: "It's a little later than the general expected. You can just ask Taoist Zhang to wait in the meeting hall. The general has something to deal with and will be there later."
"Yes, my lord!"
Dian Wei responded and immediately turned around and left.
But when he left, a trace of doubt flashed across his face, and he didn't understand what his lord's so-called important matter was.
Without thinking too much, he gave up the idea and quickly went to complete what Xiao Wen ordered.
As for Xiao Wen, he stretched himself, went out for a walk in the yard, and then walked slowly towards the meeting hall.
The reason for this was not because Xiao Wen really had something urgent to deal with, but just to show off his attitude and let the Taoist master wait for a while.
These days, if you want to live well and enjoy your life, you must have a good pace in negotiations.
Otherwise, if you are not careful, you can easily become a knife in the hands of others and be used by others.
Don’t end up counting money for others after being sold by others!
Therefore, you must stay calm when dealing with these NPCs!
After all, it is not unheard of for players to be fooled around by NPCs before.
When Xiao Wen came to the meeting hall, Zhang Lu was already waiting next to him.
When I saw Zhang Lu, I could clearly feel that the aura on this man's body was deeper than before, as if he had broken a bottleneck and reached a new level.
When I looked at this person again, I found that his level had broken from level 60 to level 61.
Although it is only a first-level prompt, it is actually equivalent to a large-level leap.
Zhang Lu before could only be regarded as a quasi-sixth grade, but now Zhang Lu is a real sixth-grade!
Even in this world, he is an innate master who can be called the ceiling!
"Congratulations, Taoist Master, for your improved cultivation and breakthrough in Taoism!" Xiao Wen cupped his hands and said with a chuckle.
"General, what you said is serious. The poor Taoist is just lucky enough to be in a bad situation. Such a level of cultivation is really nothing compared to the general." Zhang Lu responded with a smile.
In front of Xiao Wen, he didn't have the arrogance of a Taoist leader at all.
Even at this moment, he has broken through the bottleneck and reached a new level.
"I just don't know. Didn't the general follow Daozi to Shangyong County to find the miracle doctor Zhang? Why did he come back? And he came back with an army?" Zhang Lu asked first.
However, when asking this question, he was treating himself as a person who knew nothing and understood nothing.
This question fell into Xiao Wen's ears. Xiao Wen raised his eyebrows slightly. The look in his eyes was as calm as ever. There was no trace of happiness or anger between his eyebrows. He just stared at Zhang Lu quietly.
The two looked at each other in silence, neither of them speaking, but the atmosphere between the two suddenly became a little subtle, as if there was a vague smell of gunpowder surrounding the surroundings, but it did not explode for a long time.
After a while, Xiao Wen chuckled, breaking the silence, and said with a smile: "It seems that the Taoist priest did not send the news to the Taoist priest in private. In this case, I will let him know that he is well."
Then, Xiao Wen briefly explained what happened these days, and also emphasized Liu Yan's plan: destroy Wuliang!
When he heard the last three words, Zhang Lu's brows raised slightly. Even though he had already expected it, when he heard Xiao Wen say these words, he still felt a sense of joy in his heart.
Infinite destruction!
If we can really destroy the Wuliang Sect, that would be a great thing!
If nothing else, once this is accomplished, there will be only five buckets of rice in Yizhou and no limitless religion.
Without one competitor, Wudou Mi Road's development speed in Yizhou will definitely double.
Of course, the premise for all this is that the Master Zhou Mu is willing to support him and make him stronger, instead of holding him back behind his back.
"General! Although I am old and decrepit, I am still willing to bring five buckets of rice to the Taoist followers to help the general in this matter of destroying the evil cult. Even if I die, I will not regret it!" Zhang Lu took a step back and took a step forward, as if he didn't care about life and death.
appearance.
Seeing this, Xiao Wen chuckled several times in his heart.
This Taoist priest really knows how to express his opinions!
Not to mention whose order this was, and whose person he was.
Just saying that he is the master of the Five Pecks of Rice Road and the ultimate beneficiary of this matter, this guy has to take action.
Now these words sound really nice.
What was originally meant to be a benefit for yourself, how come you turned it into helping the general?
However, since he has pretended, it would be a bit rude for me, the general, not to accept it.
"With these words from the Taoist leader, this general feels very at ease. In this way, the matter here will definitely be properly handled! There is nothing to fear from mere evil heretics!"
"It's just that apart from the infinite teaching, there is one more thing that we have to guard against. There is one thing that we have to trouble the Taoist priest to worry about." Xiao Wen showed a bright smile on his face and reached out to hit Zhang Lu on the shoulder.
superior.
At first glance, it looks a bit like "old brothers".
"General, it doesn't matter if you say so." Zhang Lu replied with a smile.
"The Taoist Priest has also seen the puppet from last time. It is indeed the method of the Mo family. Since that guy will take action against me, he is not the Taoist Priest's old friend, so he can only be our enemy."
"It would not be a good thing for us if the abandoned disciple of the Mohist family cooperates with the Wuliang Sect, so we would like to ask the Taoist priest for help and cooperate with Mr. Mo to capture the abandoned disciple of the Mohist family together!"
Xiao Wen said while pointing to Mo Yu who was coming behind.
His attitude is already very obvious.
Infinite teachings can be eradicated!
Even the abandoned disciples of the Mohist family who attacked him secretly could not be let go.
