Why do we say that ordinary heroic spirits are arbitrary for eternity?

Chapter 77 Do I have destiny? Why don’t I know? !
  The story of Tang Zhou's betrayal of Zhang Jiao is a familiar one.

Every time when discussing why Zhang Jiao's rebellion failed, part of the reason would always be attributed to Tang Zhou's informants.

He was originally a disciple of Zhang Jiao and was Zhang Jiao's messenger to the capital.

As a result, after he arrived in the capital, he reported to the court that Zhang Jiao was about to launch an uprising.

There is no doubt that this not only caused Zhang Jiao to lose his internal support in the court, but also gave the court time to prepare.

After the uprising was exposed, Zhang Jiao had to launch a hasty revolt.

It also indirectly led to the failure of the Yellow Turban Uprising.

Although Lu Yu also knew that without Tang Zhou, there might be Li Zhou and Zhang Zhou.

But there was something wrong with a traitor disciple staying in Zhang Jiao's base camp like this. Lu Yu knew clearly but did not tell Zhang Jiao.

So when Zhang Jue came to Nanyang for the second time and the two talked all night long, Lu Yu informed Zhang Jue of the matter tactfully.

But no matter how euphemistic it is, it still seems abrupt and blunt.

After all, Lu Yu had never been to Zhang Jiao's rear base camp, so how could he know about the traitor?

Herein lies the trouble.

If Zhang Jiao doesn't believe it, then it's just a thankless job.

But if you don't say anything, if things are exposed in the future and cause a lot of trouble, it will be too late to regret it.

After weighing the pros and cons, Lu Yu still said it.

Although Zhang Jiao was a little surprised, he still took this matter to heart.

After returning to the Jizhou base camp, they sent people to secretly observe Tang Zhou's movements to see if he had any different intentions.

Zhang Jiao's people observed secretly for a long time, but found nothing wrong.

It wasn't until Tang Zhou tried to spy on gunpowder formulas, firearms and other information that the truth was finally revealed.

So Zhang Jiao set up a game.

As expected, Tang Zhou fell into the trap designed by Zhang Jiao and completely exposed himself.

After Tang Zhou was exposed, he still wanted to make excuses.

After all, this is his first action.

Who would have thought that they would fail the first time...

but.

When everyone got the stolen goods, Zhang Jiao would not listen to Tang Zhou's sophistry and was directly sentenced to death.

Tang Zhou couldn't bear it at all and quickly told everything he knew.

It turned out that Tang Zhou was connected with those aristocratic families, and under their temptation, he betrayed Taiping Dao.

Tang Zhou was very confused. He was extremely careful about this matter. Where did the flaw show up? Did Zhang Jiao notice it?

Zhang Jiao naturally did not answer Tang Zhou.

He compared the time and date.

Then I was surprised to find out.

That day we had a long conversation, and Lu Yu warned him first.

Only then did the support of the aristocratic families and Tang Zhou's betrayal...

But Lu Yu unexpectedly knew about Tang Zhou's betrayal in advance!

How did he know this?
  ……

In this secret letter, Zhang Jiao expressed his confusion and gratitude.

Regardless of how Lu Yu knew it in advance, Tang Zhou did betray him.

If it weren’t for Lu Yu’s reminder…

If the formula of gunpowder and how to make firearms were leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable!
  This incident undoubtedly sounded the alarm for Zhang Jiao.

The aristocratic families are not fools. With their support and deepening, they naturally became aware of the existence of gunpowder and firearms.

Therefore, these aristocratic families will definitely reach out and use any means to get the gunpowder formula and firearms into their hands.

Although Zhang Jiao captured Tang Zhou and prevented the secret from being leaked, this was not a long-term solution.

Blocking one Tang Zhou, there was a second one, and a third one.

This is inevitable.

The organizational structure of Taiping Dao was originally very loose. With the infiltration of aristocratic families, this secret could be kept for a while, but it was impossible to keep it forever.

Zhang Jiao believes that once this secret is leaked, it will be time for those wealthy families to betray Taiping Dao!
  When the time comes, Taipingdao will immediately become the target of public criticism.

And the court will most likely be on guard...

At the end of the letter, Zhang Jiao said to Lu Yu sincerely: "In order to prevent this situation from happening..."

"You and Mancheng should be prepared!"

...

After Lu Yu read the secret letter, he burned the letter in the fire.

Things are progressing just as he predicted, time is running out.

Today's Taiping Dao, with the help of aristocratic families, has become the largest religion in the world.

With such a high profile, the limelight is taken away, but danger also comes with it.

Originally, Zhang Jiao thought he had some time to prepare well.

But when he caught the traitor Tang Zhou, his last illusion was shattered.

The situation has reached this point, how can he still have so much time to prepare?

Zhang Jiao recognized the reality.

So he decided to strike first and prepare to rebel in advance!

Naturally, it was impossible to state this matter directly in the letter.

The words were rather vague. Time was running out. Let Lu Yu and Zhang Mancheng get ready.

What to prepare?
  Needless to say, of course——

The sky is dead, and Huang Tian should stand!
  Zhang Jiao's letter was obviously not just for Lu Yu. That evening, Zhang Mancheng came to see Lu Yu in person.

Zhang Mancheng also saw Zhang Jiao's secret message.

After reading the secret letter, Zhang Mancheng could not calm down for a long time.

He had been looking forward to this moment very much.

However, when this moment really came, I felt a little uneasy and fearful.

After all, it is a rebellion...

It's not child's play.

Zhang Mancheng subconsciously thought of Lu Yu, the little Fang Qushuai.

He once felt that only one Taiping Road in Nanyang was enough, and the second one was simply redundant.

But now, Zhang Mancheng feels that it is quite good to have Lu Yu, a handsome young man like Fang Qu.

At least if something happens, there is someone to discuss it with!
  Seeing Lu Yu, Zhang Mancheng asked straight to the point: "Have you seen the letter from the great sage and mentor? What do you think?"

Lu Yu pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "I think Master is right. Rather than being passive, it is better to take the initiative."

"Are you ready?" Zhang Mancheng couldn't help but ask.

"If we say we are ready, then of course we cannot be ready. How can we be ready for this kind of thing?" Lu Yu shook his head and said with a smile, "But these days, my soldiers are everywhere. Breaking the mountain and destroying the temple has added some experience, so it’s barely usable.”

"You are so good at training troops in the name of cutting down mountains and destroying temples. You can think of such things." Zhang Mancheng said with emotion: "It seems that you are ready."

How prepared was Lu Yu?

The Feitian Talisman is still under study.

The Fire Calling Talisman and Water Prison Talisman have not been studied yet.

If you give him some more time to learn the Flying Talisman, the Fire Summoning Talisman, and the Water Prison Talisman, and then practice to the third level of Qi training, the thunder method will be further improved, and the firearms will be produced more, then he will be ready!

However, the reality is that things often backfire. It is impossible to prepare everything before starting to rebel.

In the original timeline, Zhang Jiao made mistakes because he prepared for too long!

Years old in Jiazi, the world is prosperous.

There are still several years left before the Year of Jiazi.

Because of Lu Yu's appearance, the rebellion was even more hasty this time.

I don’t know what the ending will be...

That night, Zhang Mancheng and Lu Yu discussed for a long time.

The two finally reached a consensus.

We advance together and retreat together, regardless of you and me!
  Even, in the face of some major events, Zhang Mancheng is willing to let Lu Yu take the lead!

This made Lu Yu a little surprised.

Why is this Mancheng so crazy?

He is Dafang Qushuai, and Lu Yu is just Xiao Fangqushuai. Logically speaking, it is Lu Yu who should take him as the leader in major matters.

But now, he actually bowed his head first? ?
  There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
  Under Lu Yu's questioning, Zhang Mancheng finally explained the reason.

It turns out that Zhang Mancheng believed that Lu Yu had destiny and was the son of destiny!

This made Lu Yu even more different. Where to start? ?

Do I have a destiny? Why don’t I know? !
  However, after Zhang Mancheng's analysis, Lu Yu felt that it seemed to make sense.

First of all, the thunder fell from the sky that day and shocked the county guard. Such a coincidence happened to Lu Yu. Isn't this proof of destiny?

In addition, Lu Yu created the magical medicine to cure the plague, the extremely powerful gunpowder, and the incredible firearms.

If not the Son of Destiny, who could come up with these things?

The thing that most confirms Destiny’s Child.

It was the same thing a few days ago that I drank water and slayed the dragon!

You slayed the dragon openly... and you still said you are not the son of destiny?

Although Zhang Mancheng also heard about it, it was actually not a dragon, but a big black snake that was ten feet long.

But this is also proof.

At that time, Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, beheaded the White Snake to revolt.

Now Lu Yu has killed the Black Snake in Jiu River!
  It echoes, everything echoes!

Zhang Mancheng originally thought that Lu Yu corresponded to Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, but now he saw that he corresponded to Liu Bang!
  If we talk about his family deeds, the things Lu Yu did are really like an emperor!

Aren’t these the best proofs of having destiny?

Zhang Mancheng's analysis is very reasonable.

After all, some legends are spread like this.

As long as Lu Yu can achieve final success, these will become popular legends!
  After Zhang Mancheng left, Lu Yu thought about it carefully and found that he still underestimated the impact of these things on the ancients.

Even the handsome Zhang Mancheng firmly believes in these!

Once everyone sees something this way, over time it will become a fact!
  There are many rumors that Lu Yu is a man of destiny, so Lu Yu is a man of destiny!

After all, his deeds cannot be faked!

After Zhang Mancheng's reminder, Lu Yu finally understood what he should do before rebelling.

What else is missing from him now?
  That is the human heart!
  If you want the rebellion to be successful, it must be what the people want.

Sometimes, the power of the human heart may be more powerful than gunpowder, firearms, or even Taoism.

As a time traveler, you can never lose in terms of public opinion.

Lu Yu did not hesitate and immediately started publicity.

The direction is also very simple, mainly revolves around the story of slaying the dragon through water!

Lu Yu is like a character in mythology. He invented magic medicine and was good at thunder.

However, this time the propaganda did not continue to mythologize him, but deliberately promoted him in the direction of people.
