Chapter 26 Great Virtuous Mentor (1)

"Hello, everyone in Changshan County, I am Zhang Jiao, a great virtuous teacher." Just after Zhang Jiao finished his first sentence, bursts of applause came.

"So this is the legendary Zhang Jiao!" Zhang Han said to Zhao Lei.

"A few months ago, I got a dream from my master Nanhua old fairy, saying that there are ghosts and ghosts in Changshan, so today I specially brought my disciples here to exorcise ghosts and evil spirits in Changshan County." cheers.

"Since I've come here, I'll do good deeds for the common people along the way. All family members with serious illnesses can come to this open space to seek medical treatment from me before evening every day. I won't charge any money." Zhang Jiao said slowly After that, there was another thunderous applause.

"What nonsense is this Zhang Jiao talking about? What exactly is he here for?" Zhao Lei asked Zhang Han with a confused face. He couldn't understand Zhang Jiao's tricks of saving people and eliminating demons at all.

"I'll talk about it later in the carriage. There are too many people here, so it's inconvenient to talk." Zhang Han smiled, but didn't answer Zhao Lei's question.

"Let's leave first! I'm here to cleanse and exorcise ghosts. If there are sick people in the family, they can bring the sick to me here." Zhang Jiao said again.

After hearing Zhang Jiao's words, most of the people dispersed, and some of Zhang Jiao's loyal "fans" also learned that Zhang Jiao sat down in a daze, listening to the nonsense in the card that Zhang Jiao read out, Zhao Lei felt amused when he saw these people also chasing random thoughts there.

"Let's go! Let's go back to the carriage first." Zhao Lei said, but when he saw Zhao Yun sitting down and reciting the same spell as those ordinary people, he couldn't beat his anger.Picking up Zhao Yun's ear, Zhao Yun screamed in pain, and dragged all the way out of the open space, back to the street where the carriage used to be.

After Zhao Lei left, Zhang Jiao suddenly opened his eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to himself, "I'm finally here, I didn't come in vain today!"

On the carriage, Zhao Lei asked Zhang Han what happened to Zhang Jiao, and Zhang Han smiled and said, "Xiao Lei, I'm afraid this Jiao came to Changshan just for you!"

"For me?" Zhao Lei felt very strange, he and Zhang Jiao had never known each other, how could Zhang Jiao do it for him?

Zhang Han analyzed: "Imagine that Zhang Jiao made such a big show to come to Changshan, not only to exorcise ghosts, but also to save people. Isn't it just to attract the attention of local court officials in Changshan?"

Zhao Lei felt that it made sense, and motioned Zhang Han to continue.

"As for why Zhang Jiao came to Changshan, it may be because Xiaolei's reputation in Jizhou has soared in recent months, so Zhang Jiao came to Changshan. As for what he wants to do here? What is he looking for? This I'm not sure. We won't know until he comes to you." Zhang Han analyzed.

"According to you, Zhang Jiao is coming after me?" Zhao Lei felt funny.

"Impossible, the great virtuous teacher has already said that he came here to save the people of Changshan." This kid Zhao Yun is really stupid and naive, he really admires Zhang Jiao.

"Nonsense, that's just an excuse on his surface." Zhang Han laughed.

"Second brother, you're just talking nonsense! What does a great virtuous teacher want to do with elder brother?" Zhao Yun asked suspiciously.

"Want to gamble?" Zhang Han smiled sinisterly.

"How to gamble?" Zhao Yun was obviously not convinced by Zhang Han's words.

"If Zhang Jiao comes to look for Big Brother in the past few days, even if I win, then you have to bathe me for a month. Otherwise, if I lose, I will bathe you for a month." Zhang Han said.

"You're bound to lose, haha! You just wait to help me take a bath!" Zhao Yun was stupid and naive again. You must know that people who gamble with Zhang Han usually don't end well.

"Okay, let's limit it to three days, that's all." Zhang Han said with a smile.

Zhao Yun nodded.

"You two are so boring." Zhao Lei joked aside.

The three laughed loudly, and the carriage drove to the prefect's mansion.

Back at the prefect's mansion, Zhao Lei called Jia Xu, and explained what happened today to Jia Xu, as well as the bet between Zhang Han and Zhao Yun.Jia Xu also laughed.

"Master Jia, you also think that the second brother will give me a bath for a month soon!" Zhao Yun laughed.

"Hehe! I don't think so." Jia Xu poured cold water on Zhao Yun.

"Huh! I don't believe it anymore. Although the two military advisers are extremely intelligent, I still believe in the character of the great virtuous teacher." Zhao Yun still refused to accept the beating.

"Oh? Then let's wait and see?" Zhang Han said with a smile.

The first day passed, and Zhang Jiao didn't come to the prefect's mansion to look for Zhao Lei.

Zhao Yun was very proud the next morning, and he didn't forget to taunt Zhang Han when he went to the barracks.

"Zilong is a little bastard, I want him to look good when he loses." Zhang Han said with a smile.

"Okay, don't worry too much about him." Zhao Lei said from the side.

"Is Zhang Jiao really coming back? What if you lose? Your image as a military adviser will be lost. Do you want me to invite him over?" Zhao Lei asked.

"No, he came here with great fanfare. He will definitely look for you. It doesn't matter if we wait a little longer. I guess Zhang Jiao won't be able to wait long." Zhang Han said.

Zhao Lei nodded.

Facts have proved that Zhao Yun lost, and sure enough, those who gambled with Zhang Han did not have a good end.

On the third night, Zhang Jiao came to visit Zhao Lei.

Zhao Yun, who was still thinking about how to ask Zhang Han to help him take a bath, collapsed instantly, and hid in the corner and cursed Zhang Han.

Zhao Lei coaxed Zhao Yun back to the hall, and then let Zhang Jiao, who was resting in the reception room, come in.

The soldiers led Zhang Jiao into the hall. Zhang Jiao looked around and found that Zhao Lei's men, military and military were all there, as if he was waiting for him. He was a little surprised, but he quickly recovered his composure.

"Craftsman Zhang Jiao, please refer to Master Zhao, Prefect of Changshan." Zhang Jiao bowed slightly to Zhao Lei.

"You don't need to be polite, great virtuous teacher, please sit down." Zhao Lei made a gesture of invitation, pointing to a seat beside him.

"Thank you, Prefect Zhao, for your kindness." Zhang Jiao didn't show any politeness, and walked over and sat down, while the followers still stood still, standing below.

"I have heard the name of a great virtuous and good teacher for a long time, and I am lucky to see you today." Zhao Lei said in the official tone taught by Jia Xu.

"Your Excellency, you have won the prize. You are famous far and wide. In Julu, the grassroots often heard that you love the people like a son, and that you governed Changshan County very well. The common people love and respect you, the prefect! The grassroots admire you very much." Although Zhang Jiao For the common people, but full of bureaucracy.

"Miao praises the great virtuous teacher. Zhao is a martial artist. Fortunately, His Majesty has the insight to recognize talents, so that Zhao has the opportunity to serve the country. Of course, Zhao must fulfill his duties to repay His Majesty's kindness." Zhao Lei said. The words are beautiful.

"Prefect Zhao is serving the country and the people, and Zhang Jiao admires him," Zhang Jiao said.

"By the way, I heard from the people of Changshan that the great virtuous and good teacher exorcised ghosts and evil for the people of Changshan, and treated the wounded and injured. I am very grateful." Zhao Lei also gave Zhang Jiao a big hat.

"I am the closed disciple of Nanhua Old Immortal, and I am determined to save the common people in the world. This is my duty." Zhang Jiao said.

"Admiration, admiration. I don't know what advice the great virtuous teacher has come here today?" Zhao Lei couldn't stand this kind of bureaucratic talk with Zhang Jiao.

"I came to pay my respects to Mr. Zhao today, and I specially gave some small gifts." Zhang Jiao seemed to ignore Zhao Lei's words, and ordered the five big boxes that had been placed beside him to be carried over.

Several servants carried the box over, opened it, and saw five boxes of gold, silver and jewelry in front of everyone.

"I don't know what the great virtuous teacher means?" Zhao Lei gave Zhang Jiao a cold look.

"The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should be established. Now that the Emperor Ling is weak and the government is in decline, I have learned the true biography of the old fairy of Nanhua, helping the world and saving people, and taking responsibility for the affairs of the world. It is imperative to overthrow the tyrant and change the dynasty. If you have more than [-] soldiers and horses in Jizhou, if you help me, great things will be accomplished, and then General Zhao will also be a hero for the founding of the country!" Zhang Jiao said eloquently.

Jia Xu and Zhang Han frowned at the same time and looked at each other.

"Presumptuous, daring to make things difficult for others, how dare you instigate me to become a traitor!" Zhao Lei roared angrily.

"General, when we overthrow the imperial court, who will care whether you are a traitor or not? The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit!" Zhang Jiao continued to lobby.

"You monster, relying on your little magic skills, you want to openly rebel, it's just wishful thinking." Zhao Lei said.

"My lord, why do you have to pretend to be noble?" Zhang Jiao said.

"It's impossible to pretend to be aloof." Zhao Lei flatly refused.

"My lord, you can't refuse me, you are not qualified to negotiate terms with me." Zhang Jiao heard Zhao Lei's veto, so he made it clear.

"Now it's not a question of whether you want to join me, but you have to join my Yellow Turban Army. Otherwise, I can make the court kill you with just one sentence. Follow me, and you will have a way to live, otherwise you will die One, so you have no choice, my lord." Zhang Jiao said.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Lei calmed down, wanting to hear Zhang Jiao's reason.

"Your Excellency is only the prefect of a county, lacking more than ten thousand soldiers, strong generals under the tent like clouds, and counselors like rain. Moreover, Luoyang, the eastern capital of these tens of thousands of troops, is only separated by the Yellow River. If I let my apprentices spread rumors in various counties , Said that your lord is self-respecting and intends to rebel, what will happen to your lord?" Zhang Jiao asked Zhao Lei.

Zhao Lei pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you blackmailing me?"

"It can be said to be yes, or it can be said to be no. We are also cooperating. If you follow me, you will have endless glory and wealth in the future." Zhang Jiao began to lobby Zhao Lei again.

"My lord understands the meaning of the great virtuous teacher. We have accepted the gift. It is dark today. We will discuss this matter tomorrow. Someone will send the great virtuous teacher to the guest room to rest." Zhang Han interrupted the conversation between them Talk, said, and at the same time gave Zhao Lei a wink, signaling Zhao Lei to stop talking.

Zhang Jiao glanced at Zhang Han and said, "Then I'll give you one night to think about this matter, don't bother me, I'll rest in the inn in the east of the city!" Zhang Jiao asked his subordinates to leave the gift, and then left The prefect's mansion.

"Everyone else go to rest! Zhang Han, Zhao Yun, and Jia Xu follow me to the study." Zhao Lei left the hall after speaking without even looking at the treasures on the ground.
