Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 710: Open the door and tell your luck

When Li Shi and others were led into a spacious hall, the Shu bandit general's mind was still a mess. He was thinking about whether to suddenly break out to prevent being surrounded by Han court soldiers and horses. I also thought that the little Taoist master must have some skills, otherwise how could he be able to see the subtleties and discover the details that these warriors could not detect?

But as I thought about it, my thoughts and ideas gradually focused on how to deal with the current situation.

He glanced around, observing the environment here, and then his eyes fell on a few guards in the courtyard. He was thinking about whether to find a way to spread the news so that his subordinates stationed and hidden outside could take action as soon as possible. Rescue yourself and others.

You must know that the number of people in their group is not too large or too small. If there are too many people, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble. But if there are too few, it may be beyond their capabilities if something happens.

However, although the number of people was reduced along the way, when they arrived at this generation county, there were still a lot of people left. If they all went in in a swarm, it would be too traceable, so he arranged a group of people outside the city. , prepared as a response, and at a critical moment, it can also serve as an ambush.

As a result, the situation of entering the city was out of control, so he had to start thinking about whether to use this group of people now.

"General Li, don't be impulsive." At this moment, Henry Zhang's voice came, "Look carefully, this is not a courthouse, not a back house of a government office, it is more like a residential area. The situation is what you think. It’s not the same.”

"Huh?" After Zhang Xuan reminded him, Li Shi realized that his thoughts were confused and his emotions were fluctuating, so that he didn't look around carefully. In addition, Li Shi's background was not rich. As a big family, they had only seen a limited number of courtyards and had overlooked many details. Only when Zhang Xuanyi reminded them did they realize that this courtyard was quiet and peaceful. Although there were many guards walking inside and outside, there were not many officials. Power.

"If what I expected is correct, this should be the residence of the prefect. He brought us here obviously not as a court official, but for other considerations. In addition..."

As Henry Zhang spoke, he suddenly lowered his voice: "General, your identity may not have been exposed. The land of Shu is far away from here, and it is also chaotic here, so no portrait has been circulated. Even if there is a rumor within the government, the general has now changed his appearance, isn't it? Being so easily recognized, I think the reason why he was invited here is related to our trip."

When Li Shi heard it, he felt it made sense and felt enlightened.

Yes, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and there are so many people in the world. How can one be sure of one's identity? After all, they came here all the way, but they were extra careful not to be exposed.

Furthermore, in order to avoid trouble, before setting off, I put on a fake beard and trimmed my eyebrows. It cannot be said to be a change of appearance. At least the temperament has changed. Acquaintances have to recognize it once they see it, let alone a stranger.

"My Han family has a saying, which is to use force to suppress others, so as to defeat them without fighting." Zhang Xuan smiled again at this time: "There were several allusions in the past, saying that someone saw a suspicious person and could not distinguish it. His identity was captured, so a suspicion was created to make the man suspicious, and finally he took the initiative to expose him. After all, the general has seen the world, and he is always victorious on the battlefield. As long as he calms down, can he still succeed? "

After hearing this, Li Shi felt relieved, and immediately felt a little ashamed. After all, he was responsible for protection, and he should have taken the initiative to bring it up, but instead asked Henry Zhang to wake him up.

Just as he was about to say that, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and then someone walked in.

This man was handsome and handsome, with a tall and straight posture. He had a sense of freedom and ease when walking, and there was a heroic spirit in his eyebrows. Li Shi immediately felt strange and felt that the man in front of him was anything but ordinary.

But then he thought about it and couldn't help but curse himself secretly. In this situation, how can a person who can come here calmly be an easy person?

Immediately, he guessed who this person was. "I've met Mr. Fu." Zhang Xuan stood up first and bowed to Chen Zhi.

Li Shi thought that this was indeed the case, so he also stood up. He had no doubt that Henry Zhang's judgment would be wrong.

Chen Zhi nodded and stretched out his hand for the two of them to sit down. He then came to the main seat and sat down. Then he looked at the two people in front of him with interest and said with a smile: "Taoist Priest, how did you confirm it all at once?" My identity? After all, it’s possible that someone else is coming. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if I identify the wrong person?”

Zhang Xuan smiled and said: "The Lord of the Palace is a unicorn among men, with great heroic spirit and long luck. How can he be misunderstood? Even if the Lord of the Palace does not come, even a poor Taoist will not misunderstand the direction."

"Oh?" Chen Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly, showing an interested look. This was not the first time he heard the word luck.

In the past, before going north, he worked as a secretarial supervisor in the East and West Gardens, sorting out books and collections. He often came into contact with masters and masters of various schools, and talked with them about mysteries. He heard them more than once, but those were just these. The embellishments in the theories of masters and masters are only a small part of the content.

Even some masters are still critical of this. There is such a person beside Chen Zhi, and that is Bao Jingyan, who has never dealt with Ge Hong.

At this time, Chen Zhi didn't have much feelings about this word.

However, in recent days, this feeling has changed, and the root cause of the change is the arrival of several Taoist priests and Taoist disciples——

Currently, there are many people from the Taoist sect gathered in Chen Zhi, or in other words, living in Dai County. Among them, the most valued by Chen Zhi are, in addition to Ge Hong and his disciples, there are two parties. One is Sun Xiu who accompanied Zhao Wangsun here. .

This Sun Xiu, his descendant was the famous Sun En, who fell in love with and killed Liu Yu, the founding emperor of the Liu Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties, for a while, so Chen Zhi had a deep memory.

After the person arrived, Chen Zhi did not have much contact with Zhao Wangsun and treated him coldly. According to normal circumstances, in this situation, the Wangsun should have gone to Jixian to seek help from Wang Jun, but they stayed behind. , Not only that, as a representative of Zhao State, Sun Xiu also visited Chen Zhi many times.

Because his identity was not sensitive, Chen Zhi had many contacts with him, but the content of the conversation was not about sending troops to rescue Zhao State, but about some Taoist and Taoist knowledge.

The Taoist knowledge of this era is more similar to the Yin Yang School. In fact, it has little to do with Taoism. However, Sun Xiu learned the essence of five buckets of rice and was familiar with Taoist classics. But after all, there were many temptations, and he once had more than The word "luck" was mentioned once.

Apart from Sun Xiu, the third party members of the Taoist sect are the Taixuzi Li Bunie and his junior brother.

These two people seemed quite mysterious and had never visited Chen Zhi, but they were quite active. They had contacts with Zhang Jingsheng and others and had several conversations. Their remarks were picked up by spies and passed to Chen Zhi. Among them, the most mentioned one was: It’s the word “luck”.

Now, when this young Taoist priest from afar mentioned this word when they met, Chen Zhi was naturally moved.
