Liu Xuande would never be a succubus of the Eastern Han Dynasty!

Because you can absorb the fragments of Chixiao, it means that if one day you have the intention to rebel, you only need to put out the fragments of Chixiao in the ancestral temple, and they will absorb you to death.

And the intention of Emperor Han Liu Hong now seems to be to use Liu Bei to deal with the way of heaven, or even some hidden enemies.

the other side.

In the darkness of the night, Liu Bei held the horse reins with one hand, and took the time to play with the fragments of the Heavenly Dao with the other.

This fragment looked very peaceful and gentle. Even though he pushed it away again and again, it would cling to him like a dog...

Jiujiang County: Chapter 11: Wait, the divine monkey you're talking about might have the surname Sun...

Yuzhou, night.

In the mountains and forests, ancient trees are towering, with lush branches and leaves that block out the sun.

A strong man carrying firewood walked along the path, muttering to himself: "If you are talking to someone who is not a fairy, then you can sit with him in your spare time..."

"Boom!"

I don’t know if it was because the singing was too bad, but a flash of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, tearing through the dark clouds and revealing a dazzling white light.

Immediately afterwards, there was a deafening roar of thunder.

The downpour came without warning.

The strong man hurriedly hugged the firewood in his arms, but just after running two steps forward, he heard the sound of communication coming from beside him.

“…It rained when it was supposed to. What bad luck.”

"This damn God just doesn't like people to succeed!"

"Wenhe, Heaven also has ears, be careful what you say."

"Hey, there's a person in front..."

Then came the sound of increasingly rapid horse hooves.

As soon as the strong man turned his head, he saw the handsome young man riding a white horse, and then he was stunned as expected.

After he reacted, he fell to his knees on the ground with a plop and shouted: "The gods are coming, the gods are coming..."

“…I told you that you weren’t fit to be the first to show up.”

Liu Bei smiled awkwardly twice. Was it because of the different places? Anyway, his hometown would not regard him as a god.

Jia Xu sighed and said, "Sir, please get up quickly. We are not gods, but students on our study tour."

“…Student?”

The sturdy man was stunned for a moment, then took another look at Liu Bei's appearance, thinking that this immortal might be traveling in the world disguised as a mortal and didn't want others to recognize him?

"My surname is Liu, my given name is Bei, and my courtesy name is Xuande. I am from Zhuo County, Zhuo Commandery. I am not a deity."

"Okay, my Lord God."

The strong man nodded repeatedly. He was quite clever and said, "The weather is bad. The immortals, please come to my humble abode to take shelter from the rain!"

Liu Bei and Jia Xu looked at each other, then nodded: "Sorry to bother you..."

"Don't bother, don't bother."

Master Lu followed from behind and casually threw out a few coins: "Consider it as accommodation fee."

"Thank you, God!"

The strong man was overjoyed and ran to the front to lead the way.

Master Lu glanced at Liu Bei, who nodded slightly.

This is the old official road before the water flow changed. Although it is not as safe and prosperous as the new official road, it is extremely fast when traveling.

Suddenly, a strong man came running out of this desolate place, saying that he lived next door...

What kind of person would settle down next to the old official road? There must be something strange about it.

But they did need a place to shelter from the rain.

Master Lu and Liu Bei were not ordinary people and were not afraid of wind and rain, but there was a weak and helpless stinky fox by their side.

These days even a minor cold can kill someone, so it’s better not to let the delicate Jia Xu get wet in the rain all the time.

As Liu Bei was thinking about it, he put his coat on Jia Xu's head.

Raindrops condensed on the leaves, crystal clear, swaying gently with the wind. Finally, they could not bear the weight and dripped down with a crisp sound.

The raindrops were as big as beans, hitting the leaves, making dense popping sounds, like the beating of war drums.

Everything in the mountains and forests was covered in rain, mist and blurred vision.

The house finally took shape.

The strong man enthusiastically placed their horses next to the rain shelter, and then brought Liu Bei and others to the door of their home.

Before I could knock, the door opened from the inside and a middle-aged woman with a worried look on her face walked out.

"Husband, this rain came suddenly, I'm afraid you..."

"It's okay, it's okay," the strong man said while introducing the people behind him with a smile, "These are the gods..."

"immortal?"

The woman looked over in confusion, and when she noticed Liu Bei's appearance, her eyes narrowed: "He is truly a god!"

Liu Bei was a little amused and helpless. Master Lu and Jia Xu beside him both had faint smiles on their faces, and it seemed that neither of them wanted to take the initiative to help him resolve this little misunderstanding.

But come to think of it, these days, the common people probably need some spiritual comfort...

As soon as Liu Bei and others entered the house, they saw the blue and white clothes hanging on the main wall.

The strong man's family was obviously poor, barely making ends meet, and they were wearing patched cloth clothes.

But this blue and white dress is made of silk, which makes it look very noble.

"This is……"

"Oh, God, you don't know, this is our family heirloom."

The strong man also looked at the clothes and chuckled, "Legend has it that decades ago, my great-grandfather met a monkey that could speak human language while cutting wood. My great-grandfather showed it the way, and it left this clothes to my great-grandfather."

"It's strange. It's been so long, but the clothes haven't changed at all. Oh, maybe it's a divine monkey."

A talking monkey?

Lu Zhi and Jia Xu did not react in a strange way, perhaps because they were born to hear a lot of such strange stories and rumors, but when they fell into Liu Bei's ears, it was completely different.

Oh my god, you are not talking about my grandpa Sun, are you?

If you think about it carefully, the journey to the west took place in the early Tang Dynasty, and Bi Ma Wen was suppressed for five hundred years. If you push it back, it really was during the Eastern Han Dynasty...

The Monkey King, Bi Ma Wen, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the Fighting Buddha... You are not really being held down under some mountain, are you?

Liu Bei didn't dare to think about it at all. If it was true, it would be too shocking.

Maybe, it is just an ordinary monkey?

Anyway, we already have warships, so it’s not surprising to have a talking monkey.

"Oh, the rain is too heavy. Let's go cook for some of the gods and great men first."

After the strong man finished speaking, he took his wife into the inner room without saying anything.

"This...Xuan De, have you also noticed the strangeness of this dress?"

"Yes, Master, but this is too exaggerated..."

Liu Bei stared silently at the blue and white clothes in front of him, or more specifically, at the aura of heaven contained in them, and was unable to utter a word.

Back then, the emperor intended to play with a fragment of the Heavenly Dao. He spent so much effort and mobilized so many people, but in the end, only a small piece appeared. He then went to find Liu Bei.

But there is a large piece of it inside the clothes...

What exactly is this heavenly way implying?

Master Lu sighed, "Perhaps this is fate. Perhaps it can be exchanged for money."

"No."

Liu Bei immediately shook his head and refused, "Looking at his poor family, yet he still has his ancestral belongings, he must be a man of his word, or... he must be under the protection of the divine monkey."

In fact, if you think about it, it is extremely difficult to pass down an item for several generations, because there will inevitably be one or two prodigals who sell their ancestral items at a low price for the sake of wealth.

Therefore, this piece of clothing is a little weird, but it must be weird in a good way, such as protecting the family and ensuring that their incense continues to flow.

Lu Zhi had just subconsciously wanted to take advantage of his disciple, but now he finally realized what was happening and nodded, saying, "You're right."

While they were talking, Jia Xu suddenly moved his nose and asked in confusion: "Hey, do you smell the smell of jerky?"

"Jerky?"

Lu Zhi and Liu Bei thought about it for a moment, and then their faces changed drastically.

This family was poor and they didn’t hear any sound of birds or animals when they came in, so how could there be the smell of jerky?

Jiujiang County: Chapter 12: The Curse of the Monkey God

Liu Bei frowned. He had no time to worry about the etiquette between host and guest. He forced open the door of the inner room and stepped in first.

Inside the house...

Of course, there was no bloody scene of broken limbs and bodies. If there were, they would have smelled it long ago.

The stove was operating normally, and the couple was controlling the fire while one was cutting the meat strips steadily.

“…Ah, everyone, please wait a moment. It will be ready soon…”

There was nothing unusual in the strong man's passionate voice.

His wife also smiled at him, but the skin on her face seemed paler.

Maybe it's because of the light?

"Boom——"

The thunder outside was getting closer and closer, as if it was going to tear the entire sky apart.

"It's okay, the night is still long, we are not in a hurry."

Liu Bei slowly walked out of the inner room, turned around and looked at Master Lu.

At first glance, the situation in the inner room seemed fine. The only problem was that the woman looked a little pale, and the meat strips were a little too fresh...

An ordinary person might really be fooled by these two people and would not think anything bad about it, but the master and disciple present were both extraordinary people.

Just one glance and you can tell that the meat strips are extremely fresh.

Even if we hunt wild game today, it will take time to cut it up.

They just took a few glances at the clothes outside. How could the game be cut into jerky so quickly in here?

This is too suspicious.

Liu Bei thought for a moment, and caught a glimpse of Jia Xu shivering with his arms folded, so he sat down and began to add a few more pieces of firewood to the fire.

The flames grew brighter and brighter.

Jia Xu immediately moved closer happily, but there was some thought hidden in his eyes.

She pointed at the clothes on the wall, and Liu Bei looked in the direction and observed them carefully.

The room was a little drafty and the cold wind blew in, but the dress was not affected at all. It stayed straight against the wall without moving.

Liu Bei and Master Lu both narrowed their eyes, but neither of them spoke.

A moment later, the door to the inner room was opened with a bang. The strong man held the big bowl in both hands and said with a smile: "The broth is here..."

After saying this, he placed the big bowl in the center.

The soup is tender and juicy, with a few pieces of meat floating in it, and the whole thing is yellow in color.

Liu Bei looked expressionlessly at the sturdy man with a brilliant smile. After a brief pause, he said, "...Where's your wife? You can call her out to eat with you."

"Oh, she's already eaten," the strong man said with a smile, "It's cold, and the soup won't taste good if it gets cold. The gods should eat it as soon as possible..."

"makes sense."
