Army of the Undead in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 86
When Zhang Jiao came out of Hongnong City, the sky had already begun to turn pale, and the dawn light dispelled the darkness in front of him, just like Zhang Jiao's current mood, full of joy.

Zhang Jiao's trip to Hongnong City, the results far exceeded his expectations, and he was naturally very happy. In his opinion, a new city has quietly risen and appeared in front of him!

When he entered the city, he met Yu Ji, the city guard of Hongnong City. Because Liu Bian was involved, Yu Ji was worried about some confidential matters, so he retreated to the left and right, and sat down with Zhang Jiao for a secret talk.

After listening to Zhang Jiao's intention of coming, Yu Ji agreed to his simple requests without hesitation: the borrowing of construction tools and agricultural tools, the supply of seeds such as grain and vegetables, and nearly a thousand farmers with a considerable number.Due to the drought, there is very little arable land in Hongnong City, and most of the population is consuming surplus food in the city, so Yu Ji is also happy to give a favor and hand over some idlers to Zhang Jiao for use.As for the tools needed for construction, there were quite a few left over in Hongnong City when the construction was carried out to build new houses, but they were ready-made.

Of course, Yu Ji also has a request: Hongnong City doesn't have much surplus food now, you can use these farmers as much as you want, if you don't have enough, just ask, but you have to be responsible for the food they consume.

This made Zhang Jiao dumbfounded. He originally planned to ask Yu Ji to borrow food. After all, even if Zhu Jiuyin was big and fleshy, he couldn't bear the consumption of more than a thousand people, and he would be eaten up in just a few days.But when Yu Ji said this, he was too embarrassed to mention the matter of borrowing food.

After the two talked, Yu Ji asked curiously: "Looking at the things that Mr. Zhang needs, they are all necessary for reclaiming wasteland and building houses. Is it possible that Mr. Zhang wants to build a new house and reopen the land? You must know that there is a severe drought in the world. If there is no water source, everything will be difficult. Why did the young master make this decision?"

The Hongnong city guard in front of him is dressed in a Taoist robe, dressed in a fairy-like attire, and looks like an outsider in his gestures, which makes Zhang Jiao look a little different. Besides, he is asking for him, so Zhang Jiao naturally has a question. Must answer: "In my opinion, due to the melting of Xuefeng ice, a natural lake has been formed [-] miles outside Hongnong City, and the amount of water stored in it can be used by millions of people. Besides, there are treasures of heaven and earth stored in it. The land can make the land contain the aura of heaven and earth, without loss of water vapor, and the land is good for farming. According to the order of Mr. Liu, the old man guards this place for him."

Yu Ji, the city guard of Hongnong City, called Liu Bian the young master. Zhang Jiao naturally knew that Hongnong City was also Liu Bian's territory. It ended up being a favor.So Zhang Jiao didn't hide anything, and told Yu Ji everything there, and pulled Liu Bian down, so he could speak up if he needed anything.Of course, he also knows what to say, what to say and what not to say, the fact that there are undead in the corpse farm is his trump card to save his life, and he will not tell Yu Ji about it.

"There is such a thing?" Yu Ji was full of surprise: "It can automatically adjust the water vapor in the lake's water flow, and can nourish the earth with energy. Could it be that such a treasure is the one recorded in the Pre-Qin Miscellaneous Records?"

"You know too?" This time it was Zhang Jiao's turn to be surprised.You must know that those who can know the existence of this treasure are at least first-class alchemists. In other words, at least they must be able to know some Taoism to know the existence of the Frozen Throne.Originally, although he saw Yu Ji's dignified appearance, he thought that he was just an ordinary ascetic who didn't have such great supernatural powers, but when he said this, Zhang Jiao immediately looked at him with admiration, and couldn't help but look at Yu Ji more.

Seeing this, Zhang Jiao immediately let out a "huh", and inexplicably came up with a person in his heart, but he was immediately rejected: that person is only 40 years old, and Yu Ji is obviously a 70-year-old man with a completely different appearance. possible?Besides, that person was already dead.

Zhang Jiao's face was covered by the cold iron battle helmet, and Yu Ji couldn't see the inexplicable surprise on his face. Moreover, at this moment, he suddenly heard that something that the pre-Qin alchemists had been searching for for a hundred years appeared outside Hongnong City. The record of this object can't help but be full of excitement: "It is said that this object can make the seasons of one side no longer affected by the weather, the effect is comparable to the four seasons like spring, and the maturity period of agricultural products can be shortened by three or four times, and it can cure diseases The first emperor spent his whole life without finding anything, so why did he suddenly appear outside Hongnong City?"

"Heaven and earth are rare treasures, and those who are virtuous live here. The young master has a destiny with him, and it will appear because of fate. Perhaps it is God's will. Since General Yu knows the effect of this thing, he will be very supportive of Mr. Liu's decision to build a city on the mountain. This place is in your hands." Zhang Jiao's eyes flashed a frenzy: "With this place as the foundation, stockpile food and raise troops, within a few years, it will become a strong city."

"That's right," Yu Ji nodded and said yes, feeling Zhang Jiao Dasheng's confidant: "Nowadays the plague is rampant and the people are displaced. We only need to stockpile food as evidence and gather the refugees. Naturally, there are enough troops."

"The emperor's star is dim, and the stars are everywhere. The world will soon fall into a state of chaos and war. The power of the Han Dynasty will be exhausted, and the three stars will be divided, like a tripod. One of the stars corresponds to the emperor's star. It should be the clan of the Han Dynasty. The surname should be Liu, so could it be that it should belong to Young Master Liu?" Zhang Jiao smiled slightly, implying that Liu Bian could use this as a basis to compete in the Central Plains and win three parts of the world.

"The young master has practiced Taoism since he was a child. He has a weak nature and a weak personality. I'm afraid he doesn't want to get involved in this dispute." Yu Ji frowned.He is also proficient in the art of astrology and knows the meaning of Zhang Jiao's words. Besides, he really wants to help Liu Bian take the lead. Even if the world is divided into three parts, it is better than nesting in this small Hongnong City, isn't it?

"We just need to build the city according to the land and develop the population. When the time comes, there will be enough troops to become a big city. If there are many soldiers and generals, even if you don't want it, you can't help yourself."

The two god sticks looked at each other, laughed loudly, and immediately became friends with each other.

"By the way, why not move the rare treasures of that day into Hongnong City, and then expand it based on the original foundation, which will leave a lot of trouble." Yu Ji suggested.

Zhang Jiao shook his head, although through the cold iron mask, he could still hear the wry smile in his words: "That day's rare treasures have been integrated with the surroundings, forming horns with each other, so that the endless water of the lake can be preserved. Well, there is no source of living water in that lake, and according to the current drought trend, within half a month, it will definitely dry up."

Hearing what he said, Yu Ji also knows that Fengshui forms a pattern and complements each other. It would be fine in normal years, but now there is a severe drought in the world, and the farming population needs water supply. The Ice Throne can no longer be moved. up.

"In this case, brother Zhang can bring some necessary things to go forward, take the old man to deal with some trivial matters in the city, and then bring the farmer to help."

The trivial matters Yu Ji mentioned were burning and burying the bodies of those who died of the plague.It was originally planned to deal with it at night, but it was delayed because of Zhang Jiao's sudden arrival.Those corpses were carrying the toxin of the plague. If they were burned with ordinary firewood, the poisonous smoke might fill the city if they were not handled properly. That's why Yu Jicai had to do it himself, burning everything with the flames of thunder.

The two greeted each other for a while, Zhang Jiao took some tools and things, and left with the undead soldiers.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Yu Ji was about to summon people to go to the abandoned land, when he heard a rush of footsteps rushing towards him, and a small school shouted: "Report to the general, the military situation is urgent, the spies found that there are Hun cavalry heading towards us. Come towards the city!"
