Chapter 45 Wu County

What is Taoism pursuing? There may be different answers in this world. Some people may say that pursuit is as free and easy as Zhuangzi, while others may say that they comprehend the mystery of the great Tao and comprehend the ultimate truth of the universe like the Taoist ancestor Laozi. Some people may say that they build a peaceful world and let Taoist ideas spread throughout the world.

In Gao Cheng's view, these are all empty. Taoism has methods to enter the world and leave the world, but no matter which one is, the ultimate goal is to become an immortal and live forever.

After Gao Cheng got Yu Ji's information, he read it briefly and knew that this person's general personality was different from Zhang Jiao. Yu Ji's hundreds of thousands of religious members were not tight and loose. It was like a loose force that was simply gathered together, otherwise the spies of the Embroidered Uniform Guard would not be able to easily find out the news.

His hundreds of thousands of church members seemed to be gathered together intentionally or unintentionally. In addition, there were many remnants of the Yellow Turbans from the Central Plains. These people were also the backbone of hundreds of thousands of church members.

"I often practice in seclusion... I only give talisman water when I leave seclusion! This Taoist master at the end of the Three Immortals seems to be an ambitious person, but a cultivator who is dedicated to practicing Taoism and becoming an immortal!"

After the tempering of these worlds, Gao Cheng's vision has become very accurate and he feels that there are basically no mistakes. As for why Yu Ji was killed by Sun Ce in the original timeline, it can only be said that the talisman water he made is too effective and has captured most of the people in Yangzhou.

In addition, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans among hundreds of thousands of church members are very afraid of them!

After sending off the army that went south, Gao Cheng checked the detailed information about Yu Ji and Taiping Qinglingdao in his mansion. As for the interactions between Yu Ji and several aristocratic families in Wujun, this is nothing. After all, a rumored god-like person wants to make friends.

If there was any conspiracy between the two sides, Gao Cheng was not worried at all. As long as he was still in Yangzhou, he would be confident enough to suppress all monsters and monsters.

Then, Gao Cheng walked out of the room, looked at Xu Chu who was standing with a knife outside, and smiled and said, "Zhongkang, go and give me an order. In an hour, we will go to Wujun and meet the scattered immortal Yu Ji!"

Xu Chu's current official position is the lieutenant and the commander of Gao Cheng's personal soldiers. A peerless general who refines the nine levels of the Gang serves as a guard, and now only Gao Cheng is so luxurious.

However, Xu Chu was not dissatisfied with it. He knew that no matter how strong his strength was, he had just surrendered to the Yangzhou Army, and could not take charge of the army in one step and become Gao Cheng's confidant general.

The custom of the Han Dynasty was to be granted a title without merit. If you don’t make contributions, you will reach a high position without making contributions. Even if you have great skills, you will not convince your soldiers and colleagues.

Xu Chu has extremely strong strength and strong confidence. As long as the Yangzhou army fights, he will have the confidence to make great contributions. At that time, he will naturally gain a foothold in the Yangzhou army and ascend to a high position. Now serving as Gao Cheng’s personal military commander is also a process of close contact with the lord.

Xu Chu looked dull and said aloud, then called a subordinate to ask him to prepare a large ship. The fastest way to go to Wujun is to take a boat into Chaohu, then pass through the branches of the river and drive along the Yangtze River. It won’t take long to reach Wujun.

...

Above the river, waves were rising and falling. Several large ships formed a simple formation and drove towards the east along the water. Gao Cheng and Xu Chu did not stay in the cabin, but instead wore a breath on the deck.

The river breeze was refreshing, blowing away a hint of dryness and heat in the air. On the surface of the river, you can occasionally see merchant ships passing by. The chaos in the southern Yangzhou was not aroused by the panic of the merchants, but instead became an opportunity for them to get rich.

A large number of merchants transported medicinal materials to treat miasma and various military supplies, which were continuously transported to Danyang and Yuzhang through the Yangtze River. They made a lot of profits from the Yangzhou army.

Gao Cheng did not prohibit the behavior of these merchants. Instead, he appointed Mi Zhu as the Yangzhou Hu Cao, and formed a huge caravan. Through the relationship between the Yangzhou army and the former Mi family's caravan network, he became the number one rich merchant in Yangzhou. This caravan made a lot of money for Yangzhou every day.

Not long after, a huge dock appeared in front of it, with a lot of people on the dock, and the outline of the barracks could be seen faintly around the docks. This was the Moling Camp built to deal with the Xuzhou army stationed in Guangling. Now most of Guangling has fallen into the hands of Yangzhou. This camp has been changed to a wharf.

In the distance of the military camp, you can see the outline of a mountain. Gao Cheng stood on the deck, sweeping forward with his thousand-mile eyes, bringing the terrain near Moling into his eyes.

"The dragon and the tiger are lying on each other, it is indeed the house of the emperor! Unfortunately..." Gao Cheng sighed secretly. This place was the first choice for the establishment of the Southern Dynasty. It was later known as the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. However, at this time, the originally majestic and huge city was just a small county town. There was no place for people to pay attention to.

Gao Cheng had no idea of ​​running this place and building a city. In the future, he would conquer Jingzhou and Yizhou and fight for dominance of the world. The focus was on the north. If he built a city in Moling, wouldn’t he declare to everyone that he did not have the ambition to go north to seize the world? In this case, how could the Yangzhou army recruit talents who are determined to the world?

Wujun, Lou County.

Lou County is located in the east of Wujun County, not far from the East China Sea. There are often legends here that practitioners take boats to the sea to seek immortality. There are countless islands in the East China Sea, and I don’t know how many rare treasures are hidden, as well as various cultivation resources. After Yu Ji stayed in Lou County, he kept sending his fellow disciples to the sea, as if he was picking and salvaging something.

"Lord, Yu Ji is in seclusion in the house opposite!" A man in ordinary clothes whispered.

Gao Cheng nodded slightly. He and Xu Chu stood on a restaurant in Lou County. On the third floor of the restaurant, you could see most of the buildings in Lou County. The man talking was a spy installed by the embroidered guard in Qinglingdao.

Opposite the restaurant is a vast house with huge trees planted inside the house. The canopy blocks the view outside, making people unable to see clearly what is inside.

Just as the spy was about to tell Yu Ji whereabouts in the past few days, Gao Cheng suddenly looked like a look, waved his hand, and stopped the spy's movements. He said, "No need to say more, the other party has discovered us!"

Xu Chu's body shook slightly, and the spy next to him couldn't help but grow his mouth, showing a look of shock.

Gao Cheng turned around and went downstairs. Xu Chu hurriedly followed behind. A group of three people walked towards the gate of the house. At this time, the guards at the gate seemed to have received some instructions. They opened the gate and walked out of an old man with a fairy-like sacred bone and a wooden stick.

The immortal Yu Ji! Gao Cheng and Xu Chu subconsciously confirmed his identity when they saw the other party.
