Rampage through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 6
Twenty miles away, in a ruined temple.

Seven or eight people were gathering around a fire to keep warm. Two people were tied up in the corner of the ruined temple, an old man and a middle-aged man.At this time, a big man beside the fire was cursing and said: "Boss, do you think that kid can bring money to redeem him?"

A burly man with a scarred face replied: "Didn't Lao Liu go to stare at it? It's really unlucky. Seeing that they wear silk and silk, they don't even bring any money. What's the use of bringing those pearls and jade? Let's grab them and pay them back." It’s easy to sell, it’s better to bring some gold and silver.”

How did this group of robbers know that the family of Shichang servants has always been domineering, and they are all masters who can't eat and go around. Naturally, the official inn flattered in every possible way, and the arrangements for food, lodging and transportation were properly arranged, so there was no need for the Zhang family to spend money, so the Zhang family did not bring any money when they went out this time.Those jewels and jades are the filial objects of officials on the road. Although these things are valuable, they are not easy to sell. The poor can’t afford them, and the rich are mostly descendants of aristocratic families. These robbers can’t take these jewels and jades. Sell ​​it!There were no pawnshops at that time, and even officials' salaries were calculated with "stones", so these valuable jewelry and jade articles were not as useful as money in the eyes of these kidnappers.

"Boss, are you saying this will prevent the dogs from sending soldiers to catch us?"

"Huh, he dares! If he sends troops, we will kill people."

At this time Zhang Rang's elder brother interjected: "Hero, spare your life, my younger brother will definitely redeem us with money, please don't kill me!"

Hearing this, a robber laughed and said, "Don't worry, we never get the money and don't tear up the ticket. We always get the money before tearing up the ticket, ha ha ha!"

A group of robbers were talking when they heard voices coming from outside the temple.

"Brother, there is a temple in front, let's go first and rest."

"Okay, brothers, hurry up and rest in the front temple."

"Oh, brother, it's not good, the axle is broken. This box of gold is so heavy that it broke the axle."

"Nonsense, we've been staring at it for a few days, isn't it just for this? Let you find a stronger car. Look at the broken car you're looking for. This is a big box of gold. How can we transport this box of gold back without the car! "

The eyes of the robbers in the temple were brightened when they came here. Several people hurriedly looked out of the temple, and saw six people driving a donkey cart. Holding a knife, the knife was still stained with blood, and there was a man behind him wrapped in a bandage, who obviously had just fought. There was a large box on the car, and the axle was obviously broken. The six people were standing there anxiously.

A robber quietly rushed to the boss and said: "Boss, did you hear what they said, a box of gold, let's do this ticket."

The boss pondered for a while, and said: "It seems that we have met our peers. It's not that we haven't done black and black. We have more people than them. Brothers, copy guys, we will do this ticket."

The robbers quickly picked up their weapons and rushed out of the temple.And the six people beside the cart saw the robbers rushing over, and the leader with a beard shouted, "Who is in front?"

"Hey, colleagues!"

The bearded man said: "Since we are colleagues, I also know the rules, and we will share half of the meeting!"

"Half? Today I want all of them! I have more people than you, so admit it!"

The bearded man said: "Damn it, I'm stuck here today, brothers, get out!" He ran away, and the robbers didn't chase after him, and walked towards the cart.

A robber excitedly opened the box and shouted: "Ah, boss, there are stones inside!"

The boss rushed to the front of the car, saw that it was indeed a cart full of stones, felt bad, and immediately took people back to the temple, but the two old men tied in the corner had disappeared.

"No, I fell into a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain!" Before the boss finished sighing, he heard the outside shout: "Bold bandit, today is the day you die!"

"Boss, it's an officer, run from behind."

"Boss, there are also officers and soldiers behind."

"No, there are officers and soldiers outside, and we are surrounded."

"Brothers, rush out. Fight them." At this time, these robbers showed their true colors and rushed out one by one desperately.

"Fire the arrows!" The officers and soldiers seemed to have no intention of fighting the gangsters, and all arrows were fired.The gangster didn't rush a few steps and was shot into a hedgehog.

At this time, a bearded man came out from the army. It was the "big brother" who was driving the car just now.The elder brother looked at the "hedgehog" on the ground, returned to the team, and replied to a young man: "My lord, they are all dead, there are no survivors."

"Go to the temple to see if there are any dead!" said the young man.

This young man was Zhang De, and when he learned that the old man Zhang had been kidnapped into the temple, and there were only ten kidnappers, he wanted to kill him directly, but he was afraid that these thieves would jump over the wall and kill the old man Zhang, so I came up with this method: first, let people hide behind the temple in a white cloth, hesitating that there is snow everywhere, so it will not attract attention, and then let people push the cart "gold" to draw the robbers out, while the robbers are all out of the back People slipped in and rescued people.

Zhang De returned to Luoyang with the frightened old man Zhang and his son and the heads of the robbers.On the way, Mrs. Zhang heard that Zhang De rescued him with tricks, and praised him for being brave and resourceful.After walking halfway, he met Jian Shuo with a thousand soldiers.Zhang Rang heard that his father had been kidnapped, so he asked Jian Shuo to lead his troops to rescue him. He met Zhang De just after half the journey.

When Zhang De returned to Luoyang, he was immediately summoned by Zhang Rang.Seeing Zhang Rang's smiling face, Zhang De prayed in his heart, hoping that Zhang Rang would reward him with more gold and silver, so that he could run away when he saved enough.

Zhang Rang smiled and said to Zhang De: "I really didn't misunderstand you. You did a good job this time. The old man praised you for being brave and resourceful. It's a pity to let you be a bodyguard." Zhang De heard this in his heart Yixi, knowing that he was going to be promoted, listened to Zhang Rang and continued: "From the first time I saw you, I felt that you are not an easy boy, so how about this, I won't reward you this time, it happens that you have no relatives in your family." Now, my surname is Zhang and you are also surnamed Zhang, so I will accept you as a foster son!"

Zhang De secretly called it unlucky, he didn't get promoted, he didn't get any rewards, he had an extra father for no reason, and he was a father with a bad reputation.Recognizing this eunuch as his father, and then thinking about the final result of this eunuch, he was forced to jump into the Yellow River by others. Do I have to accompany him to jump into the Yellow River in the end?
Seeing that Zhang Rang did not give him a chance to refuse, he said self-consciously: "I have also taken in a lot of sons and grandsons, but none of them are worthy. You are different. I see that you will definitely have great promise in the future. By the way, Decao, you don’t have a sign yet, do you?”

"no!"

"Let me give you a name. Seeing your handsome appearance, I will give you the name 'Xianzhang'. Zhangzhe, beautiful jade..."

Listening to Zhang Rang nagging there, Zhang De himself was thinking about the benefits of recognizing this godfather.At least for a few years, this godfather will be very powerful, and it seems that I have to take advantage of these few years to make more money. I remember the two years after the end of the Yellow Turban chaos, I must have saved a lot of money.When the time comes, take advantage of Lingdi hanging up and run away, where should I go?Well, Jiangnan is not bad, it has not been affected by Dong Zhuo's chaos, and it is not bad to be a local rich man there!
At this time, I heard Zhang Rang say: "Since you are my godson now, godfather can't treat you badly. I have already said hello. Tomorrow you report to the Yulin Army. Godfather has already given you a job under Jian Shuo's hand." In the name of doing something, after a few years when you grow up, I will put you outside as a prefect or something. By the way, I saw that you were a good gun that day, what kind of weapon would you use, how about the arrow hair?"

Zhang De thought to himself, let me go with the [-]th Da Da, and I can't even draw a bow when archery. As for other weapons, I have taught the regiment leader how to use a broadsword before, so he replied: "I can also use a short sword. "

"Ah Zhong, take Xianzhang to choose a good weapon later."

In fact, Zhang Rang also has his own purpose in recognizing Zhang De as a godson.In the past few years, Zhang Rang has recognized many godsons and grandsons, but they are all playboys. It's okay to bully the common people under the pretense of foxes and tigers, but they don't have much real ability.At first, Zhang Rang thought it was awe-inspiring to recognize so many godsons, but later found that they were all guys who failed to succeed and failed.So in the past few years, Zhang Rang has never recognized any godson.But in the past few years, Zhang Rang discovered that Lingdi's body was not as good as before, and that a 30-year-old man looked like a 60-something.And Zhang Rang has made many enemies, especially since he was assassinated last time. Zhang Rang already knew that the members of the family wanted to swallow him alive. If the Emperor Ling died, it would probably be his own doom. .

At this time, let Zhang Rang meet Zhang De.Zhang De is old and young, if he is supported, he will at least be a prefect or something. If something happens to the Emperor Ling, Zhang De will also have power at that time, and others will not dare to do anything to him. As a retreat for himself, Zhang Rang himself can rely on Zhang De'an to spend his later years.In addition, Zhang De was handsome and handsome, so Zhang Rang liked it very much, so he took this opportunity to accept Zhang De as his adopted son.

Zhang De knew that Zhang Rang had taken a fancy to him, but he didn't know that Zhang De had such a big follow-up plan.At this time, he was following the housekeeper Zhang Zhong to choose weapons.

Zhang Zhong led Zhang De to the West Kuayuan. Zhang De saw that he was not walking in the direction of the armory, so he asked, "Uncle Zhong, did we go the wrong way? This is not the way to the armory!"

"Hehe, young master, you haven't been here for a long time. Although there are a few good weapons in this arsenal, they can't be called magic weapons. The magic weapons that the master has collected for many years are all in Xikuanyuan!"

Speaking of bringing Zhang De to an attic, there was a plaque hanging on the attic with the words "Zhenbao Pavilion" written on it, surrounded by dozens of guards, which showed the importance of the Zhenbao Pavilion.

Zhang's mansion occupies a large area. Usually there are more than 1000 family members and guards in the family. Zhang De usually lives in the east, and Zhang De does not often come to Xikuayuan, so this is the first time Zhang De knows that there is a treasure pavilion in Xikuayuan.It seems that there is a magic weapon hidden here!
