Chapter 599 Looking Anxious

My heart and my actions are as clear as a clear mirror, and everything I do is righteous!

Well, it was just that Zhang Fei said that Xia Yan was really a demon and wanted to classify him as Taiping Dao and the Yellow Turban Army, so Xia Yanzhen emphasized his identity as a righteous person.

We are all people who want to fight the Yellow Turban thieves. If you cannot do justice for heaven and act chivalrously, I will be the devil.

unreasonable.

etc……

Suddenly, Xia Yan really thought of a "possibility".

He could also be a demon, join the Yellow Turban Army, and find an opportunity to kill Zhang Liang. Isn't that a feasible option?

All roads lead to Rome. There is no need to be rigid about who I want to kill. I have to be upright and fight against them with a clear-cut banner.

You can also go undercover and do a backstab at the last minute.

It is a good choice for those who lack strength.

Xia Yanzhen has many choices. He can charge head-on, or undercover and stab in the back. We will see it based on the situation.

"Are you a Taoist priest?" Zhang Fei asked.

As the Yellow Turban Army took the Taiping Road as its foundation, it swept the world.

A lot of demons have emerged, and Taoist priests are not a good profession nowadays.

"I am a monk, and I practice the Tao. This Tao is not the other way. For outsiders, it is okay to say that I am a Taoist." Xia Yanzhen looked at Zhang Fei: "Who are you?"

Zhang Fei replied: "Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, who are from Zhuojun, want to work with my eldest and second brothers to exterminate the Yellow Turban bandits and make great achievements."

You are the right way, and I am also the one who wants to destroy the Yellow Turban thieves.

"Oh?" Xia Yanzhen raised his tone, "Then it seems that we are on the same front. Who are those people?"

He pointed to the "militiamen" in the distance. They looked here in a panic, as if they wanted to run but didn't dare.

"I recruited soldiers," Zhang Fei said. "My eldest brother recruited soldiers in Zhuo County after King Jing of Zhongshan won the victory, and organized a volunteer army to kill the Yellow Turban bandits."

"What use can these people have?" Xia Yanzhen threw the Zhangba snake spear in his hand.

Judging from the fight just now, if Zhang Fei charged into the formation alone, it would be impossible for a military formation composed of ordinary people to stop him.

The people he recruited were truly ordinary people.

It is unclear whether these characters are exceptionally weak, other soldiers are stronger, or there is something special about an army composed of ordinary people.

Zhang Fei took the Zhangba Snake Spear and said a little strangely: "If we want to exterminate the Yellow Turban Bandits, how can we not recruit soldiers?"

The Yellow Turban Army is sweeping the world. How can we fight without soldiers?

"I'm a newbie here and don't know much about the world. Since you and I are the ones who want to exterminate the Yellow Turban thieves, why don't we go together?" Xia Yanzhen sent out an application to join the team.

Zhang Fei was looking at the gap on the spearhead, feeling heartbroken. When he heard Xia Yanzhen's words, he was stunned for a moment and then nodded sharply: "Okay."

The eldest brother Liu Bei is at the right time to employ people. If this person is not a demon, he will definitely be a great help.

After all, his martial arts skills are only higher than his own.

This is the first time Zhang Fei has met such a master in his life.

Even the second brother is not as good as him.

As for whether it is a demon or not, it will be left to the eldest and second brothers to decide when the time comes. He will just say "I am the same" from behind.

If it were a demon, the three brothers would definitely be able to defeat it if they joined forces.

It's not a demon, just give me more help.

It’s a good thing left and right.

Zhang Fei nodded with satisfaction at his wit.

In this way, Xia Yanzhen joined the team and a group of people went on the road. He walked beside Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei turned his head frequently and looked at Xia Yanzhen - the humanoid Tiamat next to him. After a while, he asked: "Who is this brother..."

This strong man appeared suddenly just now.

"My Taoist boy."

"Taoist?" Zhang Fei's eyes widened with a look of surprise.

He doesn't read much, but he also knows that a Taoist boy is almost the same as a book boy.

How can there be such a Taoist boy in the world?

"As a Taoist, it's normal for me to have a Taoist boy, right?" Xia Yanzhen said.

"..."

Zhang Fei wanted to say that he didn't look like a Taoist boy, but more like a bandit. He completely ignored his appearance, which was also that of a bandit.

Legend has it that the real Zhang Fei in history was a Confucian general.

The Zhang Fei in front of me is definitely not that. He is very "orthodox" and fits the image of Zhang Fei in most people's minds - a leopard head with ringed eyes, a voice like thunder, and power like a galloping horse.

Along with Tiamat, it's hard to tell which one is the more bandit and strongman.

"What were you sitting on just now?"

"The secret method used to travel." Xia Yanzhen said, "After all, in troubled times, I am a little Taoist priest walking outside, and I can easily be targeted by strong men."

"The little Taoist priest was targeted by a strong man..."

Zhang Fei muttered, "With your martial arts skills just now, how can any strong man target you?"

It would be nice if you didn't target the strongman bandits.

"God has the virtue of good life." Xia Yanzhen explained, "The world is accustomed to judging people by their appearance, which will inevitably lead to more troubles. It is better to let people know the difficulties and retreat from the beginning. The same is true for the monster. It devoured corpses in a village and was killed by me. , can be used to deal with strong men, I don’t have to be stained with blood.”

He explained why he looks so villainous, it’s all for the sake of not committing murder and he has good intentions!

Zhang Fei originally wanted to say that you have red lips and white teeth, a handsome face, and extraordinary clothes. You can tell at a glance that you are either rich or noble. How can ordinary people dare to provoke you?

But now that the Yellow Turban Thief is born, the world is in chaos.

There are many lawless fanatics.

Especially the small group of yellow turban thieves who are causing trouble. If they really see such a weak and fat sheep, they will definitely not be able to help but take action.

What this little Taoist said actually makes some sense.

Zhang Fei was successfully persuaded.

The sky gradually darkened and entered the night.

Along the way, there were almost no people on the official road. Occasionally, some refugees saw a group of soldiers and immediately jumped to the side in fear, wishing they were thousands of miles away.

Zhang Fei lit the torch he was carrying and led his horse forward.

The newly recruited newcomers behind him crowded together as much as possible, with a hint of horror on their faces.

Xia Yanzhen asked: "I think they are scared?"

"The world is in chaos now. At night, monsters come out to cause trouble in some villages. There are also monsters that drive monsters to hurt people." Zhang Fei said, "It is quite dangerous to be outside at night."

"You are not afraid?"

"What am I afraid of?" Zhang Fei puffed up his chest.

His Qi and blood are like mercury, so monsters and ghosts are reluctant to get close to him, so they will naturally take the initiative to hurt him.

There are so many weak people in the world, why bother provoking dangerous people who cannot be provoked?

Of course, if someone like Xia Yanzhen focuses on attacking, those monsters and ghosts will not be polite.

After advancing for a while, the surroundings of the official road became darker and darker, and various weird bird sounds could be vaguely heard.

"Tsk, dead bird." Zhang Fei muttered.

"Dead Man Bird? What is that?"

"The Dead Man Bird is the Dead Man Bird... Oh, I forgot you just came down the mountain." Zhang Fei explained what the Dead Man Bird was.

A bird that often appears near corpses exposed in the wilderness.

It's black, like a crow, with a weird picture on its feathers, like a twisted skull face, and it makes a "coo" sound.

It is called the dead man bird, and is also known as the "human-faced bird".

The troubled times have begun, and there are more and more dead people, and more and more dead birds.

Its cry can be heard even near the official road.

Hearing the howl of the dead bird, the newcomers recruited by Zhang Fei looked even more frightened.

Xia Yan really doubted how much combat power these people had.

Once a fight breaks out, they may collapse on their own.

"Let's rest here at the inn tonight. We'll hit the road again tomorrow. We can reach Zhuoxian County in half a day." Zhang Fei said.

There is a dilapidated and abandoned inn next to the official road.

It can barely be used as a place to stay and shelter at night.

The post station next to the official road is so dilapidated. It is indeed the end of the dynasty and the building will collapse.

No, it’s not necessarily that the building is about to collapse, it’s more likely that the building has already collapsed.

In terms of time, the emergence of the Yellow Turban Army was just the beginning of troubled times, and it seems that it should not be so serious.

But something is obviously wrong with these three countries.

Whether it is the history of "Three Kingdoms" or the romance of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", just refer to it.

Just think of it as a Three Kingdoms game, so you won't feel weird no matter what pops out from any corner.

When we arrived at the inn, we found some dry branches and wood nearby and lit them.

The dancing firelight dispels the darkness and brings a little warmth.

At this time, there is still a bit of spring chill, and the night temperature is on the low side.

A group of newcomers tried to get as close to the fire as possible. Zhang Fei sat shirtless at the door, acting as the door god.

The occasional cold wind that blew in didn't bother him at all.

It was a quiet night, with no strongmen or monsters appearing.

It wasn't just luck, it was because the wild dog had been out patrolling all night.

In the morning, Tiamat turned the body of the wild dog into ashes and was about to arrive at Zhuoxian. It was not easy for the wild dog to appear in front of people.

And Tiamat also needs to consume psionic energy to maintain the Nether Legion.

The wild dog is of no use, so just throw it away.

At noon, the sun is high.

Zhang Fei took Xia Yanzhen and more than 20 newcomers into Zhuoxian County.

Compared with the deserted outside, Zhuoxian County is lively, with people coming and going inside and outside the city.

Zhang Fei led everyone to the temporary camp.

From Zhang Fei's mouth, Xia Yanzhen learned that the Yellow Turban Army (thieves) attacked Youzhou.

Liu Yan, the prefect of Youzhou, called the captain Zou Jing to discuss the matter. The captain Zou Jing urgently called for troops. Liu Bei's three brothers followed Zou Jing and were recruiting troops, intending to destroy the Yellow Turban Army and make contributions.

The three brothers have been recruiting troops these days, and have gathered almost more than 400 people.

It's the start of a career.

Xia Yanzhen doubted how much fighting power these four hundred people could have, but he had never seen the battlefields of the Three Kingdoms with his own eyes, so he didn't say much.

Arriving outside the small tent, Zhang Fei went in first, and after a while.

Someone came out and greeted Xia Yanzhen with a surprised expression: "Liu Bei, the last prince of the Han Dynasty and a foolish man from Zhuo County, met the Taoist priest and was able to get help from the Taoist priest..."

As soon as they met, they threw a bunch of nice words in Xia Yanzhen's face and kept her attitude very low.

It's like visiting the thatched cottage three times to meet Zhuge Liang.

The person who can be so "courteous and virtuous" is naturally not Mr. Guan, but Liu Da'er.

Xia Yanzhen saw that the Liu Bei in front of him also had a classic image, with his ears hanging down from his shoulders, his hands above his knees, his eyes focused on his ears, and his face like a crown jewel.

He is not a middle-aged man with a double chin, but looks like a kind-hearted elder.

Although he has a beard, Liu Bei in front of him is quite young, much younger than his two sworn brothers Zhang Fei and Guan Yu behind him.

It's not that Liu Bei looks young. Judging from the time, Liu Bei is only twenty-three or four years old now.

Look young and normal.

It was Guan Yu and Zhang Fei who looked too anxious.

One has a face as thick as a jujube and has a long beard, and the other has a dark face and a beard. If you are not older, who is older?
