The roar rang in their ears, and countless people were shocked for a moment. When they looked around, they did not look at Zhang Lu, but at Zhang Xiu.
When they were in the middle of the battle, they didn't pay much attention to Zhang Xiujian's killing of Su Gu.
But now, the battle is over, and when Zhang Lu shouted loudly, these people have just reacted.
His eyes widened and he looked at Zhang Xiu with dark pupils, a look of horror on his face.
In addition to horror, there is also fear and shock!
What did they see?
His deputy leader assassinated Su Gu, the prefect of Hanzhong?
Or...
Su Gu, the governor of Hanzhong, was beheaded by a commoner.
this……
This slap in the face has already been slapped on the imperial court. Doesn't this cause a problem?
Those who are worried, those who are happy, those who are indifferent...
These people looked at Zhang Xiu with different expressions.
When all the eyes were staring at him, the murderous aura all over Zhang Xiu's body weakened, and there was a trace of clarity in his scarlet eyes.
At this moment, he seemed to have just woken up from the killing, his brain was buzzing, and his face showed a little surprise and a little regret.
Complex expressions intertwined on the face, and then disappeared, returning to indifference.
With his back straight and his hands behind his back, he stood like a tall mountain. When he looked back, he looked at Zhang Lu with eyes that contained no emotion, sneered and said, "Brother, what are you afraid of? He's just a traitor.
Just kill him! Come to think of it, Mr. Zhou Mu will not blame Pindao for this!"
When he was saying this, Zhang Xiu turned his head and looked at Yan Yan aside. The implication was self-evident.
Being stared at by Zhang Xiu, Yan Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, but she understood what the guy was thinking.
Want to draw the flames of war to your own lord?
I have to say that this guy has a good idea, but he is a little too naive.
This general can also let you ignore...
Just when a thought flashed through Yan Yan's mind, she heard Zhang Xiu say: "We, the disciples, are born as Lord Zhou Mu, and die as Lord Zhou Mu's ghosts!"
"In order to help Mr. Zhou Mu unify Yizhou, he did not hesitate to put himself in danger. I think Mr. Zhou Mu would not do anything like burning bridges after crossing the river, right?"
If it were said that what Zhang Xiu said before was just to draw the flames of war to Liu Yan.
So at this moment, what he said was entirely to force Yan Yan to express his stance!
Let Yan Yan represent Liu Yan and support them!
Otherwise, rejecting or scolding him in public will definitely force his subordinates to feel resentment towards their master.
Just imagine, you are out there fighting for others, fighting for profits to help your master, and in the end you almost lose your life.
But what’s the result?
In the end you won.
Instead of receiving any reward, you will be scolded.
When the bows and birds are gone, the good bows are hidden; when the cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys will be cooked!
So, will the people under my command complain?
There must be one!
Even, a seed of rebellion may be sown here.
So at this moment, I can only comfort you, but I must comfort you!
but……
If he was appeased, wouldn't it mean that his lord would be responsible for what happened today?
Attacking and killing a court official, even a rebellious court official, is still a court official!
Such an existence can actually be accessed by ordinary people.
It is a serious crime for a citizen to kill an official!
Not to mention Zhang Xiu, not even Liu Yan dared to kill Su Gu in full public view.
Among them, the relationship that needs to be borne is not ordinary!
At this moment, Yan Yan hesitated, glared at Zhang Xiu, her lips trembled, and wanted to speak, but the words came to her throat, but she couldn't say them out.
It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I don’t dare!
He is hesitating and weighing!
"Zhang Xiu! You are so presumptuous!"
"You still expect Mr. Zhou Mu to clean up the bad things you have done for you! You are too presumptuous!"
Just when Yan Yan was hesitating, Zhang Lu spoke up, stepped forward in a few steps, and came to Zhang Xiu. He was holding three or five male and female evil-slaying swords, and his aura surged around his body, and he glared at Zhang Xiu.
Seeing Zhang Lu come forward, Yan Yan could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
In this way, the master was picked out.
It’s not in vain that the lord valued him and cultivated him well!
Now that the prefect of Hanzhong has died, it is natural that a new prefect of Hanzhong must take over. This leader Zhang is a good candidate.
Yan Yan thought in her heart and couldn't help but look at Zhang Lugao.
This leader Zhang can handle it.
He's really up to something!
For a time, the situation in the entire field became delicate.
Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu stood opposite each other, but their eyes shone with light.
This time, neither of them gave in to the other. They were facing each other, and sharp auras surged out from these two people.
But after a moment of stalemate, the stalemate was resolved. Zhang Xiu took back his breath, squeezed out a sneer on his face, stared at Zhang Lu, and hummed:
"Senior brother, Master has entrusted the Five Dou Rice Road to you in the hope that you can lead the Five Dou Rice Road to become bigger and stronger, instead of becoming someone's lackey!"
"I hope you will keep this in mind, senior brother!"
Hearing this, Zhang Lu was not upset at all, he just looked at Zhang Xiu with the same calm eyes, sneered, and replied: "Junior brother, I'm sorry for your trouble."
"You are just a deputy leader, just do your job well."
After saying that, he snorted coldly and put away the three or five evil-killing swords in his hands, but the look between his brows was still cold.
This conflict between the brothers also ended when the two men calmed down their momentum.
As for what to do after Su Gu's death, no one mentioned it. Everyone packed their bags and prepared to leave.
Xiao Wen is naturally no exception.
He took Dian Wei first and returned to Xicheng County.
When the two people arrived outside Xicheng County, they saw that Zhang Zhongjing and He Yi had already set up a scaffolding outside the county town, and the wooden shelves behind them were filled with herbs.
When they saw Xiao Wen returning, their eyes brightened and they hurried to greet him.
Xiao Wen looked at Zhang Zhongjing and said: "Congratulations, sir, after today, the Infinite Sect will no longer exist on the land of China!"
As soon as the words came out, such a voice fell in Zhang Zhongjing's ears, but Zhang Zhongjing's eyes widened with surprise, and the joy on his face was self-evident.
Of course, in addition to happiness, there is also a sense of relief.
It was as if a certain burden had been lifted off his shoulders, and he let out a long breath.
Zhang Zhongjing took a step back, bowed to Xiao Wen, and said, "Thank you, General."
Seeing this, Xiao Wen quickly stretched out his hand to support Zhang Zhongjing and said: "Sir, there is no need to do this. The kid just pushed him from behind."
"The people who really took action were the Yizhou soldiers and the Five Pecks of Rice disciples."
"Generals don't have to be humble. The general is the link. Only with the general's presence can all forces be connected."
"Otherwise, bandits have been rampant in Hanzhong for many years, and many officers have been encircling and suppressing them, but they have achieved nothing. Only the generals can turn the tide."
Seeing Zhang Zhongjing praising him so much, Xiao Wen didn't say anything else.
He could more or less guess at the gratitude in the heart of Dr. Zhang.
Because of the destruction of Wuliang Sect, the Zhang family was implicated by Wuliang Sect and was executed by the nine clans. This was a thorn in Zhang Zhongjing's heart.
Over the years, although he did not explicitly say that he wanted revenge, his actions proved everything.
He used his superb medical skills to cure the villagers who had been deceived by the Wuliang Cult, and exposed the scandalous practices of the Wuliang Cult, which exposed their true colors and their reputations plummeted. They even became street rats that everyone wanted to beat up throughout the Central Plains.
In the end, he had no choice but to cut off his strength, abandon most of his foundation, sneak into Yizhou, and grow up in a humble way.
But even so, Zhang Zhongjing had no intention of letting them go. He followed them all the way to Yizhou and practiced medicine in Yizhou, but he wanted to completely destroy the Wuliang Sect.
It's a pity that he is a doctor.
It's okay to let him practice medical consultation, but he is really powerless to do things like fight, so he can only think of using the power of Hanzhong's local religion Five Pecks of Rice to deal with Wuliang Sect.
It's a pity that Zhang Lu knew how powerful Wuliang Sect was at that time and was not completely sure that he could deal with it.
Although he didn't reject Zhang Zhongjing's request, he didn't agree to it either. He just kept delaying it.
This delay lasted until Xiao Wen arrived.
It was not until Xiao Wen arrived and led his troops out of the city to suppress the bandits that Zhang Zhongjing realized that there was hope for his revenge.
Finally, a practical person has arrived in Hanzhong County!
"I have finished my business in Hanzhong this time. I plan to leave Hanzhong and go back to Xiliang. I wonder if you are willing to go with me?" Xiao Wen and Zhang Zhongjing chatted for a while. Suddenly, the conversation changed and they asked about their departure.
Xiao Wen doesn't care whether he can conquer Zhang Zhongjing or not.
It would be strange if a medical saint could be recruited so easily.
At least, Xiao Wen remembered that in his previous life, although many people were interested in the miracle doctor Zhang, there was no one who was able to recruit him to his subordinates in the end.
Those guys all failed in the end!
Zhang Zhongjing, on the other hand, has also reached the level of medical saint. He is as equal to the emperor as a doctor. He lives in seclusion in the mountains, devotes himself to practicing medical skills, and no longer appears in front of others.
so……
The moment Xiao Wen asked this question, he never thought about subduing Zhang Zhongjing, he just thought about whether he could deceive this man back.
There is no need to recruit, you just need to invite this person back and keep him in the city. You can stay or go as you like.
Just like...the two Xu Shao brothers.
Although he has never surrendered, he can actually help him do a lot of things.
If Mr. Zhang is willing, he will undoubtedly save a lot of effort in the future.
However, what Xiao Wen didn't expect was that Zhang Zhongjing was stunned by his question.
Zhang Zhongjing froze on the spot, with a look of surprise on his face. He stared at Xiao Wen for a few seconds, but he fell into deep thought and did not speak.
After a long time, he withdrew his gaze, glanced at He Yi who was standing aside, and replied: "Thank you, General, for your kindness. It's just that Zhang is used to leisurely clouds and wild cranes, and is not used to being restrained. In the next period of time, I want to walk around and see the world."
We should try our best to help those patients who are suffering.”
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Wen immediately showed a look of disappointment and sighed, looking a little regretful.
This look was noticed by Zhang Zhongjing, and he changed the topic and said: "However, the general is kind to Zhang. If there is something that Zhang needs to do, maybe the general's path to becoming a medical saint has been prepared for Zhang."
It’s all right, just ask someone to send a message, and no matter where Zhang is, he will definitely come as scheduled!”
"But, before that, please general, please find those two divine objects in your hands. Don't miss the time. Even if Zhang embarks on the path of becoming a medical saint, he will be unable to save himself."
"Of course." Xiao Wen replied.
Even if Zhang Zhongjing didn't say anything about taking those two things, he would do it, and he would definitely do it.
Only in this way can Xi Zhicai's life be saved.
After all, this actor's health is getting worse day by day.
Xiao Wen thought this in his heart.
Originally, he wanted to make another request to Zhang Zhongjing, but since the miracle doctor Zhang had already said this, he naturally didn't have to say anything more.
He nodded and took Dian Wei into the city on his own.
As for Zhang Zhongjing and He Yi, they are still outside the city.
They have to wait here, waiting for the army to return, to diagnose and treat the injuries of the injured soldiers and the five buckets of rice disciples.
This is the only thing they can do at the moment.
Xiao Wen returned to the house and took a hot bath to relieve his body's fatigue. Later, the soldiers came back.
However, although they succeeded in suppressing the bandits this time, the soldiers did not show the slightest joy on their faces.
You ask why?
The reason is very simple, just because Su Gu died.
Moreover, he colluded with the bandits and acted as the protective umbrella of Wuliang Sect and died.
This is a big event for the entire Hanzhong County.
After all, the death of the Hanzhong prefect meant that the entire Hanzhong County was about to undergo a reshuffle. The imperial court would also make corresponding arrangements for this matter.
However, these things have nothing to do with Xiao Wen.
After all, he was just passing by by chance. After the Wuliang Sect incident was over, he had no reason to stay in Yizhou. After Mo Yu gave him the secret book of mechanism skills, he took Dian Wei and He with him.
The two of them left and returned to Xiliang.
It is up to Liu Yan to clean up the mess in Yizhou, so he does not need to worry.
Ding! Congratulations to player Ban Lu Hongchen for completing the Yizhou exclusive area mission - Infinite Disaster.

Ding! Due to the player's outstanding performance in this mission, the regional rewards have been put into the package, please check it.
Improvement: Due to too few players participating in this mission, the ranking announcement has been cancelled.
On the day Xiao Wen left, he received a notification from the system.
Regional mission, completed!
Hearing the prompt, Xiao Wen did not hesitate at all, and immediately opened the package, and then saw a mysterious gift bag placed in the package space.
Ding! It is detected that the player is opening the region-specific reward package. Do you want to open it?
yes!
Xiao Wen chooses.
Ding! Congratulations to the player Banlu Hongchen for getting the job transfer scroll: Infinite Way
Ding! Congratulations to the player Banlu Hongchen for obtaining the special architectural drawing: temple
Ding! Congratulations to player Banlu Hongchen for getting 50 cubes of Spark Ore.
Ding! Congratulations to the player Banlu Hongchen for getting copper mine*500 cubes
…
A series of prompts sounded in Xiao Wen's ears. Among them, the ones that concerned Xiao Wen the most were naturally the first two rewards.
Infinite Way!
To put it bluntly, it is the job transfer scroll of the Infinite Sect.
After using this thing, you can change your job to a disciple of the Infinite Dao and be able to practice the Infinite Dao method.
However, this thing is of little use to Xiao Wen.
But you can keep it.
After all, things like job transfer scrolls are still relatively rare.
