Chapter 35

As soon as the humble room inscription came out, Xi Zhicai's attitude towards them changed drastically.

"Brother Zhang's talents and learning are outstanding. This word alone will be famous all over the world. I am afraid that many celebrities will be willing to recommend Brother Zhang. Brother Zhang will be able to show off his talents at that time."

When Xi Zhicai said this, he couldn't help sighing in his heart, he is full of talents and learning, but he has no ambition to live in this mountain.

Xi Zhicai is not from an aristocratic family, his family is very poor, and he did not have the opportunity to study.

Once he went to the city with his father, a hunter, to exchange prey for food, and someone told his father that he was talented, and if he studied, he would become a master in the future.

His father hoped that his son would become a dragon, so he was really willing to spend a lot of money, so he really let him study in Yingchuan College.

Xi Zhicai also strives for success, and he reads very well. Over the past ten years, he has read a lot of talent and learning, but now he has passed his thirties, but he has achieved nothing, and lives in this dilapidated hut.

And his parents, in order to support him to study, became sick from overwork, and both died.

Xi Zhicai was talented and learned, but he was from a low background. No one was willing to recommend him, so he failed in his ambition.

Feeling depressed, he often sat at the entrance of the village to drink, so he met Zhang Yu.

"No, Xi Zhicai must be recruited."

After confirming that it was Xi Zhicai, how could Zhang Yu give up.

So Zhang Yu tried it out, but Xi Zhicai seemed to have lost confidence in his official career and had no intention of becoming an official. Besides, Zhang Yu had no identity now, so there was not much to impress him.

"By the way, the famous card."

Zhang Yu thought of the famous general card he exchanged earlier, so he used it decisively.

According to the method prompted by the system, Zhang Yu used the famous general card against Xi Zhicai.

"Zhicai pays homage to the lord." After using the famous general card, Xi Zhicai immediately got up and paid homage to Zhang Yu.

"Haha, Zhizhi has the talents of the heaven and the earth. I really can't let the pearls be dusted and wasted on this mountain." Recruiting Xi Zhicai, Zhang Yu said happily.

The three of them had another long talk.

"My lord, you said that the two of you came to find Taipingdao, and this Taipingdao is hidden in this mountain?" Xi Zhicai was amazed when he heard Zhang Yu's intention.

"That's right, we got news earlier that the Taiping Dao may have forged weapons in this mountain, so we came to find out and make sure." Zhang Yu said.

Xi Zhicai was very shocked. What was the concept of making weapons in private? It was to rebel. Of course he understood this.

"I came from a poor background. I often heard about the Taiping Dao, but I didn't approve of what they did, so I never had contact with them. I didn't expect them to conspire to rebel."

Zhang Yu told Xi Zhicai what they saw earlier.

"My lord, the Taiping Dao is going to rebel. They have a high prestige among the people. When the time comes, I'm afraid their lives will be ruined." Xi Zhicai said.

"More than that, you don't move around often and don't know the situation in other places. It can be said that this Taiping Dao has spread throughout the Han Dynasty. If something happens, it will definitely shake the world and shake the foundation of the Han Dynasty."

Xi Zhicai has a great talent, but he has no information, and he is not sure to what extent this way of peace is harmful.

"Then you, my lord?" Xi Zhicai asked tentatively.

"It's a catastrophe for the big man, but also an opportunity for us." Zhang Yu said, staring at Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai gasped, and immediately understood Zhang Yu's intentions. Zhang Yu wanted to use the Yellow Turban to rise.

It wasn't that Xi Zhicai came from a poor background and didn't want to lose his life, so he asked, "Can't we stop it?"

Zhang Yu shook his head and said: "No, the Yellow Turbans have spread all over the world, and they have been preparing for more than ten years, and they are not strong enough. We can't even expose their conspiracy in advance."

Xi Zhicai gave up, and also knew that the identities of the few of them were not obvious, and they could not directly reach the heavenly hearing.

Talking to smart people is easy, and Xi Zhicai immediately adjusted himself to plan for Zhang Yu and the others.

"My lord, this Shouyang Mountain is very big. People can be hidden everywhere. Even if we find the place where they forge weapons, we can't do anything to them. Therefore, lord, you must not take any risks. Just explore the outside."

"Don't worry, I'm just here to confirm some things, and I won't take any risks."

Zhang Yu chatted with Xi Zhicai and Ling Cao about tomorrow's actions, clarified some details, and then went to rest.

Early the next morning.

"Zhicai, just pack up your things and let's go together when we come back."

"Okay, be careful, my lord. I'm alone and I have nothing to do. Zhicai welcomes the triumphant return of my lord and Brother Ling again." Xi Zhicai said to Zhang Yu and Ling Cao.

Zhang Yu and Ling Cao said goodbye to Xi Zhicai, and then walked up the mountain.

Along the way, Zhang Yu was very happy. He accepted Xi Zhicai, and he had another talent under his command.

Xi Zhicai was once an important counselor of Cao Cao. Before Guo Jia appeared, he was even Cao Cao's counselor, but he was in poor health and died early.

"My lord, this place is really hard to find. We had information beforehand, but it took us a day to find it."

When it was dark, Zhang Yu and Ling Cao found Shouyang Mountain, and then found their guards on the periphery.

"Just find it, rest first, and check their situation tomorrow."

In the dense forest, it is difficult to move at night without the flashlights of later generations, so Zhang Yu hurriedly found a place to hide before it was dark.

Zhang Yu and the others found a cave to rest on the other side of the mountain. They could light a fire here without being discovered by them.

They were up early the next morning.

The two climbed over the mountain and soon found the trace of the yellow scarf.

"My lord, do we want to get in again?" Ling Cao said lying on the grass.

"No, they don't have many people coming in and out, so they can't get in."

Zhang Yu and the others observed for a long time, but few people came in and out, and the guards were more responsible, so it was not so easy to get in.

Zhang Yu and the others scouted the periphery for a long time, but they never found a chance to get close to the core.

"Ling Cao, we can only find a way to get in at night." There has been no chance to sneak in.

The two could only retreat first.

At night, after it got dark, it was pitch black in the dense forest, and I could barely see the road in front of me with the help of the faint moonlight and starlight.

Zhang Yu and Ling Cao approached cautiously, one behind the other.

The Yellow Turbans here are also built in the valley. There are people standing guard on the road at night, and there are many patrol teams.

Zhang Yu and Ling Cao had already changed into yellow scarf clothes, and they were also carrying short blades.

Two figures quietly appeared beside the main road. At this time, a Yellow Turban patrol came over with torches. The two of them shrank their heads and hid in the bushes again.

After the patrol passed by, Zhang Yu and Ling Cao stuck their heads out again.
