Huang Jun heaved a long sigh and replied:
"That's because the situation was urgent. Furthermore, I didn't know Sage Nun's divine ability had recovered. The reason I used the Blood Ritual Art was to inform Sage Xu."
Zhang Zhi was startled when she heard this and asked:
"What's so urgent? You still need to take care of your body. "
Huang Jun replied:
"After I was treated as a captive of the Cao army and brought to that ship, I was severely tortured."
"But while I was being tortured, the Cao army suddenly launched a surprise attack and even set one of the ships on fire. Therefore, all the ships on the river lifted their anchors and sailed."
Speaking till here, Huang Jun violently coughed. Even when he coughed, blood flowed out from the gaps between his fingers. It took him a while to stop.
It seems like the Blood Ritual Art he used before was indeed very harmful to his body. Honest Deng hastily handed over a bamboo tube filled with clear water.
After drinking two mouthfuls, Huang Jun calmed himself down and continued:
"At this time, the torture on us was temporarily stopped. The ships were originally very close to each other. In addition, because they set sail in a hurry, there were obvious collisions and violent vibrations. Even the jailers at the side accidentally fell to the ground."
"But at this time, I suddenly felt a strange sensation. It was very strange. It was like when the great sage was still around and taught me earnestly."
After Zhang Zhi heard it, she exclaimed, "Ah!"
"How could such a thing happen?"
Huang Jun replied:
"I originally thought it was an illusion. But when I turned around, I just happened to look out of the prison's window."
"I just happened to see a ship next to me. The ship's window was facing me. The ship's hull was slightly swaying. Very obviously, the previous jolt was caused by two ships accidentally colliding."
"But that's not the main point. The main point is that the room had a table, bookshelf, and desk. In the previous collision, a box made of Golden Silk Sandalwood was knocked off the bookshelf. Half a scripture fell out of it."
When Huang Jun said this, he was already excited. He even panted slightly. It could be seen that what was going to happen next would make him feel very shocked!
On the other hand, Zhang Zhi and Honest Deng's faces turned grave at the same time. Although Zhang Zhi was in the form of a water statue, her nervousness could be felt.
Huang Jun continued.
"That half of the scripture, that half of the scripture …"
As he spoke, his voice started to choke up.
"It must have sensed the dao power emitted from my body, so it emitted a faint purple light. It looked so strange yet so familiar. Yes, I am sure that this is the supreme treasure of a Virtuous Paragon, the Heaven Escape Scripture!"
"It's just that the Heaven Escape Book seems to be in a half-damaged state right now. Someone tore off a small half of it, but that familiar feeling, I definitely won't be mistaken!"
"But that box seems to have an isolating effect. Very soon, the attendant put it back, and I couldn't sense it anymore."
After Zhang Zhi heard this, she immediately said,
"I'll be right there! Chancellor Huang, immediately inform Daoist Xu to come over! Use the Blood Ritual Technique! "
Fang Linyan,
“.....”
Goat (team channel),
"I'm guessing that Old Huang is cursing in his heart."
***
Zhang Jiao was originally a poor scholar. When he was walking in the mountains, he met Nanhua Old Immortal by chance and was taught the Immortal Book Taiping Scripture.
But this book was extraordinary, and it could only belong to the Heaven Realm. After Zhang Jiao and his brothers studied it for 81 days, a thunderstorm occurred, and the book directly turned into light and disappeared.
However, the mysteries of this book could be said to be endless. After Zhang Jiao and his brothers discussed it, they realized that although the three of them were reading the same book, the contents of the book were completely different. This was the wonder of the Heavenly Book.
Everyone's aptitude was different, their thoughts were different, and their comprehension was different, so the Heavenly Book would only show you what was suitable for you, just like a teacher teaching according to your aptitude.
If you want to see the full picture of the Taiping Scripture, your aptitude and state of mind must reach a sufficient standard. Otherwise, it would do more harm than good to the viewer.
When reading and studying the Taiping Scripture, each of Zhang Jiao and his brothers had made a thick stack of notes according to the different contents and understandings they had read. Therefore, even after this Immortal Book flew away, they could still continue to cultivate.
And these notes recorded by the 3 brothers were also extraordinary things that contained the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. They could point directly to people's hearts, so they were called the 3 volumes of Heavenly Book.
They were Heaven Escaping Book, Earth Escaping Book, and Human Escaping Book!
After Zhang Jiao and his brothers died, the 3 volumes of Heavenly Book that they carried with them were also missing. The insiders of the Taiping Sect either guessed that the 3 immortals disintegrated their corpses and took the Heavenly Book with them, or guessed that the Heavenly Book had spirit and returned to the Immortal World.
The thought of taking back the Heavenly Book slowly faded away.
However, neither Zhang Zhi nor Huang Juncai expected that the remnant of the "Human Escaping Book" that had been lost for many years would appear in front of them in such a bizarre way!
At this time, Huang Juncai looked at Fang Linyan and others and said,
"Now, you should know why I said that personal life and death honor and disgrace are really insignificant, right?"
"The sacred object of our sect has appeared again. Even if we are smashed into pieces, we must get it!"
At this time, after listening to Huang Jun's explanation, Fang Linyan and others suddenly understood that this thing was really necessary for Zhang Zhi's group of Yellow Turban Sect!
Because the remnant of the Heaven Escaping Book was not only a great treasure for them, but it also contained great commemorative significance!
At this time, a prompt popped up in front of the 5 people again,
"Legendary team, you have come into contact with clues about the Heavenly Book: Human Escaping Book."
"Hidden mission: The lost book has been triggered."
"Mission content: Find the remnant of the Heaven Escaping Book for the Five Pecks of Rice Sect."
"Mission failure penalty: Omitted. (Same as before) "
After the five of them looked at each other, they very straightforwardly accepted this mission. Obviously, if they were to refuse at this time, they were afraid that even Ye Zhi would be offended.
However, it was obvious that this mission also had an additional benefit, which was to retrieve Zhang Jiao's relic. In this case, the significance of this mission to Ye Zhi was even more different. In order to obtain the relic, the reward she had to hand over would definitely be quite generous.
As usual, Vulture went to scout first. At the same time, Goat said in the team channel,
"Even in our era, the space on the ship must be based on practicality. Spaciousness and comfort will not be prioritized."
"So, the room that Chancellor Huang saw before is a bit special. It seems to be a specially built study room! This is very luxurious. It must be tailor-made for a big shot on the ship! "
As soon as Goat said this, Fang Linyan immediately thought of one thing and said,
"Liu Bei's camp at this time should be outside the Changbanqiao, and this ship should be the camp of Sun Quan's side …"
"At this time, Sun Quan's side is led by Lu Su, so that means that the study room is probably used by Lu Su? This problem is a bit troublesome. "
What Fang Linyan was worried about was also very normal. Lu Su was now the leader of Sun Quan's side. In other words, in a sense, he was at least as important as Cao Cao and Liu Bei in the Battle of Changban!
With such a person around, it must be heavily guarded! Otherwise, if Sun Quan was killed casually, wouldn't Sun Quan be shameless?
"Fortunately, I just went to steal things in the study room …" Fang Linyan couldn't help but feel a trace of relief in his heart.
At this time, the information detected by the shadow clone was also fed back.
The ship that Huang Jun spoke of was indeed heavily guarded! It was far better than the ship that Sun Zhang took them on before.
Not only that, Zhang Zhi's Gui Water Clone also tried to get close, but said that there was an incomparably fierce aura on the ship, as if there was something taken out from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood suppressing it. It could suppress the operation of Dao techniques and supernatural powers, so there should be a powerful treasure guarding it.
According to Zhang Zhi's calculation, this treasure was similar to the Green Sword and Heavenly Sword around Cao Cao. It was a treasure that could suppress the fate of the country.
However, compared with the divine weapons like Heavenly Sword and Green Sword, it was still lacking, but it was more than enough to suppress a state!
Hearing Zhang Zhi's words, Fang Linyan felt more and more tricky! This treasure was inferior to the Green Sword, but it was also a legendary weapon! Not to mention that it could suppress the fate of a state.
Emperor Xia the Great spent a lot of effort to create such a divine weapon like the 9 cauldrons. Wasn't his intention to suppress a state?
Thinking of this, Fang Linyan suddenly said in the team channel,
"Hurry up and think about it. During the Battle of Red Cliff, what kind of treasure did Sun Quan have? Moreover, he's worthy of killing countless people with a murderous aura? "
The goat immediately said,
"Is it the imperial jade seal? No! Although this thing was once in the hands of Sun Jian, Sun Ce used the imperial jade seal as a hostage to borrow troops from Yuan Shu. "
"The imperial jade seal later belonged to Yuan Shu. It has nothing to do with Jiangdong."
Max said,
"Cao Cao once used a famous weapon: Seven Treasures Blade to assassinate Dong Zhuo. This was also a very precious treasure. As a result, Cao Cao was almost exposed at that time. He could only say that he was presenting the treasure to Dong Zhuo."
"After Dong Zhuo played with it, he rewarded it to Lu Bu. After Lu Bu died, it was lost! It might have been lost to Dongwu. "
Hearing Max's words, Vulture's eyes suddenly lit up,
"I know, the treasure on that ship should be the ancient jade blade!"
"This thing is Sun Jian's weapon. Its full name is Pine Pattern Ancient Jade Blade."
"Wearing silver armor, carrying the ancient jade blade, and riding a flower bristled horse are Sun Jian's standard. He relied on this divine weapon to forcefully establish the foundation of the Sun Family in Jiangdong."
"And Sun Jian himself also relied on this blade to kill a lot of people, so he was called the Fierce Tiger of Jiangdong!"
"The nickname Fierce Tiger is not randomly given. That is the ferocious prestige of relying on cannibalism and killing people!"
Shan Yang said in surprise,
"Such a murderous weapon like the ancient jade blade can't be controlled by a gentleman like Lu Su. It must be in the hands of an invincible and murderous general to exert its strength. So in addition to Lu Su, there is probably another general on that ship!!"
"The key is that most of the generals in Jiangdong have an advantage in naval warfare. Coupled with the fact that they have a murderous weapon like the Ancient Ingot Saber, their strength is even higher. The risk of facing him is probably no less than Zhao Yun."
Fang Linyan shook his head and said,
"It can't be calculated like this … Our purpose is to take the Heavenly Fleeing Book in Lu Su's study room, not to kill Lu Su or take the ancient jade blade, so there is still room for planning! It is not impossible to think of a way. "
Crespo frowned and said,
"Plan?"
Fang Linyan nodded and said,
"Yes, the most intuitive way I can think of now is to lure the tiger away from the mountain. All the defenses and arrangements on this ship are not around the Heavenly Fleeing Book, but to protect Lu Su. So as long as Lu Su leaves the Heavenly Fleeing Book, we will have a chance."
When Fang Linyan said this sentence, he said it loudly. The purpose was to let Zhang Zhi and others hear it.
After he said this sentence, Zhang Zhi's eyes also lit up, and she immediately said,
"Fang Yan, you are resourceful. You can even take a divine weapon like the Green Blade. Hurry up and tell us how to deal with it?"
Fang Linyan said,
"If we want Lu Su to leave the ship, we must give him a reason to leave!"
"I've thought about it. There are roughly two methods. The first method is also the most direct and effective one. That is to make the ship leak. Naturally, Lu Su will have no choice but to leave. However, there is a drawback to doing so. When he leaves, it is very likely that he will take the Heaven Escape Book with him."
Zhang Zhi frowned and said,
"What about the second way?"
Fang Linyan said,
"We have investigated this place before. The three ships here are the reinforcements sent by Jiangdong to reinforce Liu Bei. However, because there are still great differences in Jiangdong at this time, the number of reinforcements is not many. It is only a group of elites that Lu Su can mobilize."
"However, less than an hour ago, the elites guarding this ship turned out in full force. Obviously, they are going to carry out a more difficult mission."
"If this group of elites is in danger, and it is a dangerous situation where they are entangled, Lu Su has no reason to sit by and watch."
"Because Jiangdong is currently unstable internally, they have not even reached a consensus on whether to resist Cao Cao. Half of the people who came to support Liu Bei are private soldiers in Lu Su's pocket!"
"Jiangdong can afford to lose hundreds of elites, but for Lu Su, there is no way for him to sit back and watch them be wiped out. In this case, it is very likely that he will bring the remaining people to provide emergency support. At that time, we will have an opportunity to take advantage of it!"
After listening, Zhang Zhi was silent for a while and said,
"But the difficult part is how to create a situation where those elites are in danger?"
Fang Linyan said confidently,
"The elite force guarding the ship is the only mobile force in the vicinity of Jiangdong. If there is nothing important, it is absolutely impossible for them to be mobilized."
"Since it is a big matter, then the risk must be great, so it is not surprising that something happens."
"Of course, if it is only these conditions, then I will not mention this at all. However, with all of you here, this strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain has a high chance of success! Because we can take advantage of the situation! "
Hearing Fang Linyan's words, Zhang Zhi and Huang Jun, who were they? They immediately understood without needing to point out the key points!
Zhang Zhi immediately said,
"You mean, take advantage of Prime Minister Cao's situation?"
Fang Linyan said,
"Yes, at this time, there are many people under Prime Minister Cao's command. As long as the Saintess gives the order, this group of people in Jiangdong will immediately be unable to move!"
But Huang Jun immediately said with a difficult expression,
"That's not right. Before Prime Minister Cao took us in, he said that he would let bygones be bygones. Even if we continue to believe in religion, it's fine."
"It's just that we have to swear in front of the statue of the Three Pure Ones that we can't do anything to betray him. Otherwise, we are worse than pigs and dogs, and we can't transcend after death."
Fang Linyan laughed and said,
"Chancellor Huang, when did I ask you to betray Prime Minister Cao? It's just that I found that there were Jiangdong bandits here, so I sent out a warning in time. You are loyal to your duty and dispatched troops to encircle and suppress them. This is originally within the scope of authority, right? "
Huang Jun seemed to be an honest person. He didn't expect Fang Linyan to say it from a different angle. It actually made it difficult for him to refute, but he still couldn't help saying,
"But, this is obviously …"
Fang Linyan said seriously,
"Chancellor Huang, it's you who told us the whereabouts of the manuscript! This whole thing started because of you! Now I have proposed a solution, but you are not willing to contribute? "
Huang Jun was furious. He said with a red face,
"Why am I not willing to contribute?"
Fang Linyan said,
"You're still blabbering and making all sorts of excuses. If that's not not willing to help, then what is it? The elites of the Sun Quan Army have been dispatched for almost half an hour. Even if it is inconvenient to move at night, they should have started to do business. "
"And if we want to mobilize the Cao army to attack Sun Quanjun's operation, it will also take time. If you dawdle a little longer and wait for the enemy to successfully return to the ship, then there will be no more opportunity to retrieve the Heaven Escape Book!"
"Besides, the essence of this matter from beginning to end is to intercept the elites of the Jiangdong Army with the identity of Cao Cao's army. Is this also called betraying Prime Minister Cao?"
Hearing Fang Linyan's words, Zhang Zhi's Gui Shui clone immediately turned to look at Huang Jun.
She didn't say a word, but to Huang Jun, he suddenly felt an enormous amount of pressure!
Zhang Zhi could live until now and still maintain a detached position not only because of her identity as Zhang Jiao's daughter!!
Huang Jun immediately said sternly,
"I have received a lot of kindness from the Great Teacher. At this time, the Heaven Escaping Book is close at hand. Of course, I will do my best. Even if you want my old life, I will not frown!"
Zhang Zhi nodded slightly. Fang Linyan laughed and said,
"There is no need to be so exaggerated. The other party has dispatched the last mobile force in their hand, and the number is not large. They must have encountered something very urgent."
"And our intention is not to annihilate the other party, but to force Lu Su to help. It is similar to the siege in the 36 stratagems. Not only that, but we also want to give him a feeling that as long as he goes to help, he will definitely be able to save people. Therefore, the degree of this must be grasped clearly. There is no need for Chancellor Huang to risk his life at all."
"I think so, we can first …"
