Summary of the previous chapter: Cao Cao and Ma Xiaoquan "hooked up" together, followed Ma Xiaoquan's advice, and adopted a meritocratic recruitment strategy. Cao Cao also visited the scene in person to encourage popularity. This action was quite effective, while another
On the other hand, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty also started taking action...
Hanzhong.
Since Lu Xian got the solar recorder, he has been studying it day and night. During this period, Lu Xian also discovered some little secrets of the solar recorder. However, given the different times, Lu Xian, as an ancient person, must not understand the solar recorder.
of the operating mechanism.
But... After becoming younger, Lu Xian somehow always had a feeling. Lu Xian couldn't say what it was specifically. Lu Xian could feel that every time he picked up this solar recorder, his heart was filled with emotion.
He felt inexplicably excited, as if he had encountered it before.
Yuan Fang stood in front of Lu Xian, watching Lu Xian keep playing with the solar recorder, and couldn't help but said: "Sir, what's the secret of this thing?"
The solar recorder also passed through Yuan Fang's hands, but at that time, Yuan Fang only regarded this thing as a bargaining chip for his alliance with Ma Xiaoquan. As for what was in the solar recorder and how to play with it, Yuan Fang did not care too much.
What's most regrettable about Yuan Fang is that the solar recorder was originally under his control, but he didn't expect that it was accidentally stolen and ended up in the hands of Zhang Lu of Hanzhong.
Fortunately, after a lot of twists and turns, this solar recorder became Lu Xian's possession.
Lu Xian raised his head and glanced at Yuan Fang, then handed the solar recorder to Yuan Fang and said: "Yuan Fang, come and take a look at this thing..."
Yuan Fang took the solar recorder, turned it over carefully several times, then shook his head and said, "Sir, I don't understand, but there are two slots on this thing, right..."
Lu Xian nodded: "Yeah, you can see it. If I ask, these two slots should be keyholes."
"Keyhole?"
Lu Xiandao: "That's right, Yuan Fang, do you still remember the golden square coins that Ma Xiaoquan occasionally took out to play with when talking to me?"
Yuan Fang nodded: "Remember, ah" Yuan Fang suddenly woke up, patted his head and said, "Sir, are you saying that the golden square coin is the key to this thing?"
"Yes!" Lu Xian's eyes narrowed, "Yuan Fang, I will assign you a task!"
Yuan Fang said respectfully: "I will obey the Young Master's instructions."
"Okay, I'll send you to Yecheng to find a way to get me those four square meters of gold."
Yuan Fang was overjoyed and was worried about how to contact Ma Xiaoquan.
"yes!"
Yuan Fang retreated slowly, and just after a while, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of Lu Xian.
"Owner!"
Lu Xian snorted coldly: "Keep an eye on Yuan Fang!"
"Master, Yuan Fang is not..."
"Hmph!" Lu Xian's mouth curled up slightly, "When I destroyed the Baiyi Clan, Yuan Fang must have hated me to the bone..."
"Master, are you talking about the time when we killed the Baiyi clan?"
Lu Xian hummed: "Yes, I still remember there was a girl in the Baiyi clan, named Luo Shan. Well, I killed that woman, hum..."
"Luo Shan?" The black shadow moved and said, "Master, isn't this Luo Shan Yuan Fang's original lover?"
"Huh, how can I not know what Yuan Fang is thinking, but for the sake of a woman, Yuan Fang would do this. It's a pity, it's such a pity."
"Master, do you want to kill Yuan Fang with one knife now?"
Lu Xianyi waved his hand: "That's not necessary. I just assigned him a task, asking him to go to Yecheng to find Ma Xiaoquan... By the way, once Yuan Fang gets the four square gold coins, you can call Ying immediately.
Wei, let’s do it.”
"Master, you mean... kill Yuan Fang, and then take the gold square coins..."
Lu Xian's eyes turned cold and he said, "Do you want me to repeat it again?"
"I don't dare. I will obey my master's order. I will resign!"
Lu Xian didn't look up. He didn't care at all when the black shadow left. At this moment, Lu Xian focused his attention on the solar recorder again...
Half a month later, Yuan Fang came to Yecheng and immediately visited Ma Xiaoquan.
Knowing that Yuan Fang came alone, Ma Xiaoquan specially prepared good wine and food.
At night, the two entered the inner room of Ma's courtyard and talked secretly.
Yuan Fang told Ma Xiaoquan that Lu Xian got the solar recorder, and Ma Xiaoquan's expression was not too surprised. After all, he still held the key to the solar recorder in his hand.
"So, the purpose of your visit this time is to ask me for these four square pieces of gold?"
Ma Xiaoquan said and threw a gold square coin to Yuan Fang.
Yuan Fang nodded, took the four square gold coins, and said: "That's right, it's just...if I get the four square gold coins smoothly, I probably won't live long."
"Oh?" Ma Xiaoquan asked with a smile, "Did Lu Xian already notice what you were secretly preparing?"
Yuan Fang smiled bitterly and said: "Not only has he noticed it, he has noticed it a long time ago, and on the way to Hanzhong, he destroyed the power I worked so hard to cultivate."
When Yuan Fang said this, Ma Xiaoquan was also a little surprised.
"No one left?"
Yuan Fang nodded: "There is only one left, me!"
"Then what are you going to do next? You want to avenge Luo Shan, what should you do?"
Yuan Fang sighed and threw the four square gold coins back to Ma Xiaoquan: "I am alone now. It doesn't matter whether I die or not. I am just unwilling to avenge Luo Shan... Ma Xiaoquan, I can
Can I ask you something?"
"Say it! I promise you!"
Yuan Fang was stunned for a moment: "You promised me before you asked me what it was about. What if I asked you for your wife?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and shook his head: "I would not be like this to others, but you, Yuan Fang, I believe in you, you are not such a person!"
"Haha..." Yuan Fang laughed, the laughter was quite miserable, "Yes, I, Yuan Fang, have only loved Luo Shan my whole life, only Luo Shan... Ma Xiaoquan, I don't know anything else."
There is no request, I just ask you to kill Mr. Lu."
"Yeah." Ma Xiaoquan frowned slightly, thinking that this would be difficult to handle. He had accepted Zuo Ci's imperial green glass jadeite, and now he agreed to Yuan Fang's offer without even asking. This was a bit difficult to handle.
After thinking for a while, Ma Xiaoquan asked: "Yuan Fang, if I create an opportunity for you, would you rather let me kill Xian Lu, or do it yourself?"
Yuan Fang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stood up and said, "Are you telling the truth? Will you let me kill my enemy with my own hands?"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and said: "To be honest, before you I promised someone not to kill Lu Xian. Of course, to be honest, I really want to kill Lu Xian, but Lu Xian is too cunning, but...
Just because I can't kill Xian Lu doesn't mean you can't, as long as I create an excellent opportunity for you...hehe..."
Lu Xian was overjoyed and stepped forward: "Then I'll leave it to you."
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "Wait a minute, since your motive has been discovered by Lu Xian, Lu Xian must have sent people to keep an eye on you when you set off from Hanzhong... This...
What should you do?"
Yuan Fang smiled and said: "Mr. Lu underestimated me, Yuan Fang. Does he think I don't know? Hmph, don't worry, I have already found a substitute for those people he sent out to keep an eye on me."
...At this moment, the substitute should still be sleeping in your main hall, hehe..."
When Ma Xiaoquan heard this, he suddenly realized: "I'm just telling you, it turns out that you have a back-up plan, haha."
Yuan Fang said: "Then what should I do with this golden square coin...?"
Ma Xiaoquan thought for a moment and then threw the gold square coins in his hand to Yuan Fangdao: "I have two of these gold square coins. They must be inserted at the same time before they can be opened. Now I will give you one. At the critical moment,
You can use it to save your life, but... Yuan Fang, you have to remember that the harder you show yourself, the less Xian Lu can do to you."
Yuan Fang nodded, holding the golden square coins in his hand: "Okay, I know how to do it."
Ma Xiaoquan also nodded, stood up and said, "Okay, let's end our conversation here."
Yuan Fang hummed and suddenly said: "By the way, Ma Xiaoquan, I have to remind you that your apprentice Mao Gang has very evil intentions, so you have to be careful."
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan stopped, turned around and asked, "Why, what happened to Mao Gang?"
Yuan Fang shook his head and said: "I don't know the specifics, but before you, Lu Xian had met Mao Gang several times and had secret conversations..."
"Yeah" Ma Xiaoquan dragged his chin, "Okay, I get it!"
