"Keep turning it inside."
Liu Zhaoqing put down his clothes and continued to search inside.
"Yes, it's this red dress. It has a familiar smell."
Picking up the red clothes, Liu Zhaoqing pinched it. When he was about to say "there's nothing" in confusion, Yinglong spoke again in his mind.
"Reach your hand inside and take a look."
Liu Zhaoqing reached his hand into his clothes and was stunned by a sudden cold feeling.
Then Liu Zhaoqing took out a white silk underwear that looked like a vest.
"Is this... armor?" Liu Zhaoqing asked in surprise.
This "vest" as thin as silk is obviously a piece of armor.
"The material of this armor seems to be that thing." Yinglong sensed it again.
“I didn’t expect that people from this eastern land could actually find the spiritual auspiciousness of Tianshan Mountain.”
Then, at Yinglong's suggestion, Liu Zhaoqing burned it over candlelight, and then asked Zhang Liao to chop it twice. He found that this seemingly thin armor was actually impervious to water and fire, and ordinary swords could not leave scratches on its surface.
"This thing is made of silk that a psionic butterfly that only lives in the snow spits out before it pupates. The creature itself is extremely rare, and I have only seen a few things made of its silk in hundreds of years."
The knowledgeable Yinglong immediately pointed out its origin. Liu Zhaoqing also learned that this armor was woven with silk from a auspicious beast that could spin silk, and was extremely precious.
And more importantly, this armor is very practical.
According to Yinglong, almost any ordinary person can withstand a blow from a great hero.
It not only has the effect of clearing the mind and refreshing the brain, but can also enhance the ability to communicate with heaven and earth. It can be said to be a very practical treasure.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Zhaoqing found some good things again, but nearly two hours had passed.
"That's it for now." Liu Zhaoqing straightened up and said with a little regret: "I originally thought there might be something magical inside."
"Things like the Luoshu Taiping Jing cannot possibly remain undiscovered, but these things are already very good," Yinglong said.
"And I also sensed that there are some good things in the remaining boxes. One box exudes a lot of auspicious aura, which should be some natural treasures."
Of course Liu Zhaoqing also knew this, he was just talking casually. People should be content to be happy.
Even if they were simply converted according to their ordinary value, these things would be enough for him to spend a fortune, hundreds or even thousands of times.
"Please Wenyuan, collect the ones I have distributed. I will hand them over to His Majesty later." After Liu Zhaoqing said this to Zhang Liao, he prepared to go out.
Those were basically some ritual objects or calligraphy and paintings left by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Liu Hong. They were not very valuable and had no special uses, but they were of extraordinary significance to Liu Xie.
While doing a favor, you can also avoid any gossip from others.
As for Liu Zhaoqing himself, he still has important things to do and can't let the "treasure appraisal" be delayed.
Just as Zhang Liao was packing up his paintings and calligraphy and other items, and Liu Zhaoqing found a box to sit on and prepare to leave, a small problem suddenly occurred.
I suddenly felt a burning sensation around my waist. When I lifted up my clothes, I saw that it was the black jade-like Luoshu that was glowing.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Afterwards, after Liu Zhaoqing took it off his waist, he found that there was a force pulling at the Luoshu in his hand.
In other words, Luoshu seems to be going somewhere.
After hesitating for a moment, Liu Zhaoqing let go of his hand, and Luoshu directly penetrated a wooden box.
Then a large number of rare treasures were seen bursting out of the box. This should be the box containing natural treasures that Yinglong mentioned.
What is Luo Shu doing in this box?
Just when Liu Zhaoqing was puzzled, Yinglong's voice came into his mind: "It is going to..."
The next moment, Liu Zhaoqing's eyes widened, and he saw the Luoshu floating in the air. A suction force came from it, and the surrounding treasures were rolled up and surrounded it.
Strands of pure white of varying thickness were sucked in. It was actually that the Luoshu was absorbing their spiritual energy.
"Oh no! Those pills." Yinglong rarely made a panicked sound.
"Go and protect it! Don't let it eat it all!"
Seeing a lot of pills with "shells" flying out from the pile of treasures, Liu Zhaoqing hadn't reacted yet, those pills were absorbed by Luo Shu through the shells.
At the same time, the selected pills on the other side were ready to be used. Liu Zhaoqing quickly informed Zhang Liao, and then the two of them rushed forward quickly and protected most of them.
Despite this, a few pills were still sucked to Luo Shu's side.
Just two breaths later, the natural treasures around Luo Shu fell to the ground with a crash.
The body of Luoshu also slowly fell, exuding an ancient atmosphere.
Liu Zhaoqing walked forward and picked it up, and found that the gloss on its surface seemed to be more rounded.
I felt surprised.
Could it be that this is the method that the "Spirit of the Instrument" in the Luoshu mentioned before to make up for the missing parts of the Luoshu? Or is this just a "meal" for it?
Just as Liu Zhaoqing was wondering whether Luoshu would change after absorbing so many good things, Yinglong's obviously angry voice came in his mind.
"This guy ate my pills. He is just...just like a despicable beast!"
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but after Yinglong finished speaking, the Luoshu in Liu Zhaoqing’s hand lit up with a light, and then disappeared in a flash like a blink of an eye.
In other words, it is more like a "burp" after eating and drinking.
But Yinglong didn't even think about this at the moment. He was obviously angered.
"Damn it! If I hadn't been unable to transform into a physical form, I would have bitten you to pieces right now."
"Well... we are all family, don't be too angry. Look, there are still a lot of pills left." Liu Zhaoqing quickly tried to smooth things over.
"And Yinglong, you see, it's just a piece of jade. The 'spirit' inside can't communicate with us normally. There's no need to be angry, right?"
Liu Zhaoqing's words slowly calmed Yinglong down, but he soon became cold again.
"You're overthinking. I'm a real dragon, the master of all waters. How could I be angry with a stone?"
"Yes, yes, that's right."
Liu Zhaoqing nodded quickly, and then used some coaxing and praising to make Yinglong temporarily forget Luoshu's unreasonable plundering behavior, and soon he continued to sleep and rest to recover.
This also made Liu Zhaoqing breathe a sigh of relief.
"My benefactor, what happened?" Zhang Liao on the side was still a little confused and didn't know what was going on.
Liu Zhaoqing sighed softly with a helpless look on his face: "Nothing serious, it's just that my two 'portable grandfathers' almost got into a fight."
"Uh... ah?"
Chapter 350: Want to Overthrow the Civil and Military Powers of Jizhou4.3K
This made Zhang Liao even more confused.
From her perspective, Liu Zhaoqing had been identifying things. After half a day, the treasure suddenly changed, and then he started talking to himself.
If Liu Zhaoqing had not had such a steady breath and clear expression, Zhang Liao might have really thought that he was infected by some evil creature.
Fortunately, Liu Zhaoqing told her not to worry about these trivial matters. After finishing packing, the two left the basement.
"I didn't expect that the treasury of the great Han Dynasty only has so little." Walking out of the basement, facing the dazzling sunlight, Liu Zhaoqing raised his hands to shield his eyes and sighed.
It is obviously unreasonable that the treasures in the treasury of such a huge dynasty cannot even fill the basement of a governor's private residence.
During the reign of Liu Hong, the Ten Eunuchs and He Jin did not dare to touch the national treasury. Due to the sale of official positions and titles, the national treasury was somewhat full. But when it came to the reign of Liu Bian and Liu Xie, the imperial power declined and the treasures in the palace were entirely taken by Dong Zhuo at his pleasure.
He was just lamenting how poor a dynasty was during its decline. Liu Zhaoqing was not disappointed about how much benefit he could get from the Han treasury.
In his eyes, these things were enough for him to develop for a year or two, and the most important thing was that they were not taken away by others.
Liu Zhaoqing turned around and asked Zhang Liao if he had eaten breakfast. After receiving a negative answer, he asked him to go back to the mansion with him first.
Along the way, Liu Zhaoqing met many people from Yecheng. They were all very excited when they saw Liu Zhaoqing. It was Liu Zhaoqing who smiled and reminded them not to make too much noise, so as to avoid a scene of overwhelming response.
After returning to the mansion, Liu Zhaoqing saw Zhang Jiao and the little daughter behind her. He explained why he did not sleep last night and what he had just done. Zhang Jiao nodded to show her understanding.
While asking him to take care of his health, she also told him that Baoer would be coming from Youzhou today and would probably help her treat the wounded in the army.
This also made Liu Zhaoqing very happy.
After having a casual meal with Zhang Liao, Liu Zhaoqing returned to the room and put the silk armor that was useful to him, the elixir that was very useful to the dragon, and other objects that had symbolic meaning to Liu Xie that he had picked out from the basement in different places.
Then he spoke to his men, telling Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others to notify Tian Feng, Gao Lan, Zhang He and other former subordinates of Han Fu, and to prepare for a meeting to pacify Jizhou.
Afterwards, he and Zhang Liao went to the soldiers' garrison in Yecheng. Before they were ready, Liu Zhaoqing could come and comfort his soldiers.
As expected, when Liu Zhaoqing arrived at the military camp, the soldiers were all excited when they saw him.
Some shouted "General Tian Gong" and some shouted "Mighty Liu Gong".
The power of belief is too strong. Even though he was well trained by top generals like Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun, a farmer's son who only knew how to farm was transformed into an elite soldier in the Yellow Turban Army after just a few months.
Their own efforts cannot be ignored.
What moved Liu Zhaoqing even more was that the Yellow Turban soldiers under his command were not only hardworking in training and brave in fighting, but also absolutely loyal.
They are very disciplined. When they enter Luoyang, one of the richest places in the world, they are able to resist the temptation and not plunder or vent.
This can be said to be a unique existence among the princes in the troubled times.
Together with Zhang Liao, Liu Zhaoqing came to the high platform of the training ground and bowed to the Yellow Turban soldiers who gathered around him without fear of the scorching sun.
"I, Liu, am fortunate to have your trust in me and have achieved this. I also swear here that I will never let the achievements created by the Yellow Turbans who sacrificed their lives and shed their blood be lost in the history books."
"We believe what Mr. Liu said."
"Yes, I also believe in Liu Gong. My father told me in Changping that only Liu Gong can lead us to a good life. I must listen to Liu Gong, otherwise he will not recognize me."
"Although we can't read or write, we are also children of the common people. We know what the people of Luoyang and Yecheng need and what they fear."
……
Although the people in the audience were talking noisily, Liu Zhaoqing could hear them and sighed again.
Only this time it was not the sadness over the Han Dynasty's decline, but the longing for his own new army.
This is the right path to take.
With such a group of soldiers who support and understand them, "invincible" is just a common synonym in the Yellow Turban Army.
Of course, Liu Zhaoqing would not just say some words of thanks.
Although for this group of young new troops, the reason they followed Liu Zhaoqing was because they received genuine help from the Yellow Turbans and they completely believed in the morality of the Taiping Dao.
Even just some words of thanks without any other rewards can make them loyal.
But Liu Zhaoqing did not do so. He still announced publicly that all the soldiers would be commended. At the same time, the soldiers who died in the battle would not only receive a pension, but their families would also receive two years of subsidies and three years of tax exemptions.
After a great victory, the rewards should allow everyone to get their due.
The whole army enjoys the fruits of victory together in a joyful atmosphere, which can stabilize the morale of the army and let all those involved in the war feel that there is hope in fighting with them.
At the same time, it can also let ordinary people outside the Yellow Turbans and the soldiers of other princes see that the soldiers under their command are treated well.
As for the specific amount of commendations and subsidies, Liu Zhaoqing did not state it in public because he was not sure. If he said too much, Guo Jia and Zhang Jiao would probably look at him coldly and shake their heads and sigh.
Just leave the accounting to professionals.
After staying in the army for a while and understanding the needs and conditions of ordinary soldiers, Zhao Yun, dressed in a white robe, came to him and whispered a few words to him.
"Is it done? So quickly." Liu Zhaoqing was a little surprised.
He thought they had to wait until after noon. It seemed that Han Fu's former subordinates such as Tian Feng, Gao Lan and Shen Pei were also quite anxious.
Afterwards, Liu Zhaoqing asked Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao to follow him, and the three of them came to a mansion.
There were already many horses parked in front of the mansion. After Liu Zhaoqing dismounted, the soldiers guarding the gate bowed their heads and saluted.
And Guo Jia seemed to have been standing there for a long time.
"Filial piety."
"My lord." Guo Jia bowed to Liu Zhaoqing who dismounted from his horse and walked up the stairs.
"How was Fengxiao's rest?"
"It has almost recovered. At least it won't affect the discussion of strategies." Guo Jia said with a smile.
"That's good." Liu Zhaoqing nodded and felt relieved.
