Chapter 009 Preparation
Taoist priest.
Alchemist.
These are two professions, but many times, alchemists are included in other professions.
After experiencing various blows, the alchemists still found ways to survive in the cracks.
Especially in troubled times, this alchemist often brings great influence.
Sometimes, just one or two words can disturb the whole world.
The prophecy is well established in the Han Dynasty.
Zhang Jiao acted and led the Taiping Dao uprising, which in a way can be regarded as borrowing from the prophecy.
In this regard, Zhang Jiao's only regret was that what he had learned from that book was just a martial art, rather than achieving the direction expected by his master.
He didn't make it that far.
After all, it is impossible to step into the world of alchemists.
The alchemists mentioned by Zhang Jiao naturally refer to people with real skills, not some fake ones.
Looking up and down at the young Taoist priest in front of him, Zhang Jiao's tone was questioning, but the meaning behind it was true affirmation.
However, Yue Yuan did not answer this question.
Zhang Jiao was not surprised by this result.
Instead, he waved his hand and asked all other unrelated people present to leave. Suddenly, there were only himself and the other party on the street outside the house.
"Are you here to kill me?"
Zhang Jue did not ask why the other party had murderous intention towards his daughter before. There was no need to say anything. Just a little wave of murderous intention had already told Zhang Jue a lot. Especially, he was almost certain that the person in front of him named Yue Yuan was
After the young Taoist priest became an alchemist, Zhang Jiao knew that his daughter might not be simple in the future.
Either it is a great good or a great evil, or it directly affects the person in front of you at some point.
"yes."
"But that's not called killing, it's called cleaning up the family."
Yue Yuan met Zhang Jiao's gaze with a smile and said this.
"Clean the door..."
Zhang Jiao's expression was very strange when he heard this. He stared at the other person, looking at the nonchalance rippling on the other person's surface, and asked: "Junior... do you know what it means to clean up the family?"
Clean the portal…
The older ones said it was a big sect, such as those who abandoned Taoism and turned to Buddha, etc. The younger ones said it was the same sect, and there was corresponding betrayal.
The other party's words, as well as the information sent by the second brother before that, all told Zhang Jiao a very interesting piece of information.
Seeing that Yue Yuan didn't speak, he still remained silent.
Zhang Jiao knew the answer.
There was silence for a long while.
Zhang Jiao suddenly laughed and said, "It's really interesting."
"It seems that they are ready to give up on the three of us brothers."
Closing his eyes and recalling, Zhang Jiao seemed to have returned to the past. The impression of his master flashed in his mind, and he heard his master's earnest teachings again.
Ah~
She is so beautiful, yet so ruthless.
Several elders also trembled under the pressure of their master.
Even Elder Yu Ji is like this.
The master's plan...could it be possible that the outcome was already doomed from the beginning?
No!
He suddenly opened his eyes and woke up.
He refused.
Over the past few years, he has been going against the will of heaven.
Even the "Essential Art of Taiping" given by the master was given by Zhang Jiao to the current emperor Liu Macro for viewing.
But the final result has been walking step by step towards a situation that Zhang Jiao himself is unwilling to face.
A thousand-mile embankment breaks down in an ant nest.
A little twist and turn can completely affect the overall situation.
Up to now, Zhang Jue is actually tired inside. He talks to himself about destiny, but in the end it becomes a stepping stone and cannot compete with the heaven.
The single-minded Huang Tian's destiny is like the moon in the water and the flower in the mirror.
It seems ethereal.
In Zhang Jiao's eyes, the young Taoist priest named Yue Yuan in front of him was a member of his sect.
He is a new disciple in the sect, and may even be a closed disciple.
Is the reason why he came out really to clean up the family?
Maybe that widely circulated rumor is just a joke.
The true meaning of Zhang Jiao is still unknown.
So... Zhang Jiao understands that the next battle is inevitable.
The rumors that had been circulated before, coupled with Yue Yuan's words, already told the result.
As Zhang Jiao, he did not need to make any questions or explanations, he could only face it head-on.
"So... Taoist Master Yue, do you want to start now?"
Zhang Jiao gently shook the yellow Taoist robe on his body and asked with a smile on his face.
"Need not."
But Yue Yuan refused, looking at the direction where the little girl left before, and said: "Give you one day to make arrangements, and then go and say goodbye to your daughter properly!"
After saying that, the person turned around and left.
However, the moment he took the step, Yue Yuan glanced again at the direction where Zhang Jiao's daughter Zhang Ning disappeared.
What is rippling in the depths of his eyes is the unstoppable conflict.
But after finally closing his eyes slightly, the moment he opened them again, Yue Yuan had regained his tranquility.
"..."
Watching Yue Yuan leave, Zhang Jiao also turned his head slightly and looked back at his mansion. Faced with the other party's thoughts that he didn't avoid at all, he was thoughtful.
My daughter may be more useful than I imagined.
Maybe……
It's time for Zhang Jiao to make arrangements.
Time flies by.
soon.
It's getting late.
In the middle of the night, Zhang Ning, who was still just a child, looked at his father in confusion in his room.
Here, my father asked me to recite what he had set in front of me.
There are four big characters on the brocade cloth - The Art of Taiping.
You must know that Zhang Ning had never had the opportunity to see this before. In other words, this was different from the 'Taiping Yaoshu' she had seen before.
But today...his father asked him to recite the entire article.
For five hours in a row, he recited it over and over again, even to the point where he could recite it backwards. As for whether Zhang Ning did not seek further explanations, it was not important to Zhang Jiao. After seeing his daughter complete this task, he then
Relax.
Later, after letting his daughter go back to sleep and telling her that there would be spot checks in the morning, Zhang Jiao sat in the room with a solemn expression.
for a long time.
Zhang Jiao knocked on the table, making a strange and regular sound.
As the candlelight flickered, a dark figure appeared in the room. After the other party performed a great ceremony, he stood silently in the corner, waiting for instructions.
"As my disciple, I need you..."
…
The morning sun rises.
Yue Yuan still didn't show up, and it was obvious that this was still not the time for the decisive battle that he had expected.
After Zhang Jiao accompanied his half-bald daughter, the time came to noon.
At this moment, it is the hottest time.
On the tallest building in Guangzong County, Yue Yuan was holding a sword and looking up at the county seat below.
After a while, Yue Yuan finally said: "Is it finally better?"
"But with this kind of performance, you have already lost."
To Zhang Jiao who appeared not far behind him, Yue Yuan directly gave the answer to this battle.
"Big talk!"
Chapter completed!
