Chapter 143: Baili Water Lake

Juluze is located at the junction of the alluvial fan of the Taihang Mountains and the old Yellow River path. According to legend, Jiuli tribe, one of the oldest clans, is said to have settled here. Therefore, there are many people who call this fertile land of water by "Lize" or "Libo".

When they heard that it was a ze, most people would subconsciously think it was just a lake, just like Zang Ba, Taishi Ci and others. But when they arrived at Julu Ze under Zhang Huang's guidance, they were shocked to find that Julu Ze was composed of many pods (shallower small lakes) surrounding a gourd-shaped lake, which was at least a hundred miles long from north to south and forty miles long from east to west. The nine waters of the Yellow River converged here, which were magnificent and spectacular.

This is not counting. When the Nine Waters of the Yellow River rushed into Julu Ze, a large amount of mud and sand were deposited here, so many mud and sand outside Julu Ze became swamp-like mud. Under the breeding of the river water with nutritional value, the mud and sand beside the big swamp gradually evolved into lush forests, which under the beautiful natural scenery, reveals a vague threat.

In front of such a masterpiece of nature, even Cai Yan was lost for a moment, muttering about the origin of Daluze as far as she knew.

"Dayu guided the river, passed through the water north, as for the mainland..."

"Records of the Grand Historian?" Xu Fu looked at Cai Yan with a little surprised hearing this. After all, it is rare for women who know how to read and write in this idea. After reading Sima Qian's "Records of the Grand Historian", w@≡↓t is probably unique. Therefore, when he first heard Cai Yan reciting a few of the chapters of the Daohe in the Records of the Grand Historian, Xu Fu was filled with surprise.

Unexpectedly, Cai Yan was even more surprised than Xu Fu. It was a bit ugly. It turned out that she always thought that Zhang Huang and his companions were all reckless men who were not familiar with poetry and books. At best, it would be amazing to recognize a hundred words. But unexpectedly, after she recited a few sentences, Xu Fu had accurately said the source of the sentence she recited. This made Cai Yan look at Xu Fu, a young man who always claimed to be the Black Feather Crow Military Advisor.

"Yuan Zhi also read the Records of the Grand Historian?" Cai Yan couldn't help but ask curiously.

At this moment, Xu Fu almost burst into tears.

Because since he was "unfortunately" abducted by Zhang Huang to become a member of the Black Feather Crow, no one has ever called him with the word "大天". Zhang Huang's "Da Fu" made Xu Fu feel the corners of his mouth twitch, and Chen Dao and Li Tong's unceremonious "half-sacred military advisor" made Xu Fu tremble all over, only Zang Ba and Taishi Ci would occasionally call him "长斯斯".

How many days have you been? Xu Fu went from being reluctant to resisting the situation later and was indifferent. During this period, he contained so many helpless sighs and sadness, so that now, Xu Fu actually felt like he could keep the clouds clear and the moon bright.

"Reply to my sister-in-law, I had time to copy it when I was ten years old." Xu Fu replied with the excitement in his heart.

Cai Yan was stunned when he heard this, and a trace of surprise flashed in his beautiful eyes. He asked tentatively, "Can you still recite the whole text now?"

"This..." Xu Fu frowned slightly, shook his head and said truthfully, "You can probably recite it... But if you want to be word-of-mouth, it may be...well, it's a bit difficult."

"..." Cai Yan was quite stunned when she heard this. Although she was extremely intelligent and knowledgeable, she could not recite the whole story of the Grand Historian without copying it once, let alone seven or eight years later.

incredible!

"Take it seriously?" Cai Yan was a little suspicious. Although she didn't think Xu Fu had any reason to deceive her in this way, she still instinctively couldn't believe it, because in her opinion, this was something that even she and her once nominal fiancé, Wei Zhongdao, who was once known as the amazing talent, could not do.

Xu Fu was about to speak. Li Tong smiled and put his shoulder on his smile and said, "Sister-in-law, don't underestimate Dafu. He was once one of Xun Wushuang's beloved disciples..."

Unfortunately, before Li Tong finished speaking, Xu Fu, who had a little displeasure, patted his hand off his shoulder. After all, this was Xu Fu's painful foot. Having said that, even after passing through the Xun family in Yingchuan, Xun Shuang and Xu Fu were once like father-son masters and apprentices, their relationship has not improved much. But if you think about it carefully, with their stubborn tempers that seemed to be carved from the same mold, it would be absolutely impossible for one side to bow his head and surrender, whether it was Xun Shuang or Xu Fu.

"Xun Wushuang? Xun Shuang, Xun Ciming?" Cai Yan was shocked when she heard this and asked in surprise, "Yuan Zhi, you are actually studying under Xun Shuoru?"

A master of Confucianism is a written honorable title for achieving great achievements in Confucian Confucianism, namely a great Confucianism. Although Xun Shuang is not as good as Ma Rong and Guo Tai, two great figures who are like the Confucian banner of the entire era, at least a very small number of Confucian wise men who are qualified to be on par with famous Confucianism such as Lu Zhi, Cai Yong, and Kong Rong. How could Cai Yan, who claimed to be a female student of Confucianism since childhood, have never heard of Xun Shuang's famous reputation?

Xu Fu smiled far-fetchedly and glared at Li Tong hatefully. Xu Fu rarely gets angry unless someone touches his bottom line, and his master-apprentice relationship with Xun Shuang is exactly what Xu Fu is most reluctant to mention, because there is one thing he has not yet been able to let go of.

Maybe seeing Xu Fu, a good man on weekdays, was really angry this time, Li Tong hurriedly ran away, and Cai Yan looked at Xu Fu with a bad face, and he didn't ask any further questions, although she was very curious about how Jingshi Juncai, who could be regarded as a personal disciple by Xun Shuang, would be with Zhang Huang and others like Zhang Huang.

Maybe it was because all the times valued culture over military affairs, even Cai Yan didn't value martial artists who only knew how to swing guns and dance swords. Otherwise, she wouldn't have considered subtly asking Zhang Huang to read more books.

At this time, Zang Ba's steady voice came from the direction of the carriage.

"Boss is awake!...Boss, how are you?"

Hearing this voice, Cai Yan quickly turned around and hurriedly returned to the carriage that everyone was riding, and happened to help Zhang Huang, who was helping Zang Ba, get off the carriage.

"Ahuang, how do you feel?" Cai Yan asked with some concern.

"It's... okay." Zhang Huang moved his stiff neck. Because of the unbearable heat poison, Zang Ba and Taishi Ci were afraid that he would self-harm again under the torment of heat poison, so he directly knocked Zhang Huang out and brought him. It's no exaggeration to say that Zhang Huang almost spent all the way during coma, because as long as he showed a little sign of awakening, Zang Ba and Taishi Ci who were staring at him, he would make up a hand knife without hesitation. After all, although this would not slow down the accumulation of heat poison in Zhang Huang's body, it would at least temporarily relieve Zhang Huang from pain.

Of course, there are still side effects of doing this. For example, now, when Zhang Huang just woke up, he immediately felt the heat from beginning to end in his body, but his head was still groggy and he had not reacted for a while.

"Boss, Juluze has arrived. How should I go next?" As he said this, Chen Dao looked around and looked into the distance, adding in confusion, "Boss, where is the direction of the Huankong Mountain you are talking about? I didn't see any mountain along the way."

When they heard this, the black-feathered crows were also stunned. They couldn't help but look around, but as Chen Dao said, there was only a vast and magnificent lake here, and there were lush forests. As for the mountain, they didn't see any of them.

Facing everyone's puzzled eyes, Zhang Huang endured the gradually increasing heat in his body, forced a smile, and said, "Follow me, you will see it." As he said, he raised his hand and pointed at the many dodians like swamps on the periphery and said, "The carriage is here, let's go this way."

"Road?" The black-feathered crows looked at the road Zhang Huang pointed at with a strange expression. If that mud could be called a road.

"Be careful, don't fall down... These places used to be lakes. Although they are not deep enough, they are at least ten feet..." Zhang Huang pointed to several mud pits in the distance, which were more than ten feet in a radius of more than ten feet and reminded.

I glanced at the mud pits that were even bubbling. The black-feathered crows swallowed uneasy. Many times, people are still quite powerless in front of nature, just like the black-feathered crows all have mastered rigid bodies, but once they accidentally fell into those pits, what role can even rigid bodies play?

Perhaps he noticed the nervous expressions of the Black Feather Crows, Zhang Huang first patted Cai Yan's back of his hand, comforted her slightly after hearing the words, and then he smiled at the Black Feather Crows and said, "Follow my steps and don't fall into the pit... If you want to be safer, you might as well use the Quzhu to match my rhythm."

The black-feathered crows looked at each other and began to simulate the pace of Zhang Huang's walking. In this way, as long as they grasp the distance Zhang Huang took, they could easily step on the footprints left by Zhang Huang and not step on other places.

The only uneasy factor is whether Zhang Huang accidentally stepped on the wrong place.

Out of anxiety, Xu Fu couldn't help asking, "Captain, do you seem to be familiar with this place?"

"Ha." Zhang Huang's face showed a smile as if he was recalling, and he murmured, "When I was young, I had to go down the mountain for about three or five days to hunt some wild game to buy some rice, grain, vegetables and food in the nearest village. After a long time, I probably became familiar with the people here."

"I haven't fallen?" Li Tong laughed maliciously.

"Of course... I almost died several times." Zhang Huang's indifferent expression made the Black Feather Crows look at each other.

As they talked, Zhang Huang and his group walked deeper and deeper in this forest. I don’t know how long it took, but after they carefully passed through a dense forest, the black-feathered crows were shocked to find that they suddenly realized their eyes. It was not the zeal area where the crisis was so great that they didn’t know how to get off. What was presented to them was a green field. What was incredible was that in front of them, in the distance of the blue lake surrounded by the jungle, a towering mountain suddenly appeared in their eyes.

"This..." Everyone was stunned. You must know that they had never seen any mountain on the periphery of Juluze just now, let alone such a towering mountain.

"Illusion?" Xu Fu widened his eyes in shock. At this moment, he really couldn't understand whether the mountains he was seeing now were illusions, or what they had just seen on the periphery of Juluze were illusions. However, he instinctively felt that in Juluze, a place surrounded by large areas of water, there shouldn't be such steep mountains and ridges like fairylands.

"I finally understand why the boss is coming to find his adoptive father..." Taishi Ci seemed to have awakened something and said in disbelief, "If all the things we see at the moment were just transformed by Taoism, the boss' adoptive father would never be under the Zhang Li..."

A group of people looked at Zhang Huang with strange expressions. After all, Zhang Huang had never said that he had such a powerful adoptive father.

Facing the brothers' expressions that were shocked and gasping, Zhang Huang smiled and shook his head, and said, "You misunderstood. This is not created by my adoptive father using Taoism, but by natural formation. My adoptive father is not the owner of this place. He just lives here..."

"Master?" The black-feathered crows looked at each other in confusion and asked curiously, "Who is the master here?"

When Zhang Huang heard this, he raised his hand and pointed to the tops on both sides. The black-feathered crows looked up in confusion when they saw this.

It didn't matter when they saw it, and they immediately turned pale. Because they were shocked to find that there were many weird people dressed in clothes on the trunks of the big trees on both sides of the path they were walking through. Most of these monsters were dressed in wild animals' fur, and only a few were wearing clothes similar to coarse cloth. The dark faces and skin were covered with dark red patterns like blood. They were squatting, standing, holding wooden bone-pointed spears, or holding stone knives and bone knives, looking at them with a bad look.

[Barbarian!]

The Black Feather Crow, who was so scared that he exclaimed in his heart. Although they had heard more or more that even under the rule of the Han Dynasty, there were some disobedient things and would rather live in the secluded mountains like a savage than submit to the mountain people under the rule of the Han Dynasty. However, if they actually encountered the Damin Mountain War, which they encountered in Guangling, they were only the second time.

In the impression of the Black Feather Crows, the indigenous warriors in Damin Mountain in Guangling County were already powerful enough, and with the cooperation of the night, they were simply unmatched killers. However, it seemed that the wave of indigenous people suddenly appeared in front of them would be even more powerful. Because if it weren't for Zhang Huang's instructions, they wouldn't have known that there were already a group of fierce-looking barbarians staring at them above their heads.

This ability to hide the breath is far above the native warriors of Damin Mountain.

Involuntarily, the black-feathered crows touched the weapons they carried with them as if they were facing a great enemy. Seeing their actions, the eyes of the barbarians with thick arms became more and more ferocious.

At this moment, Zhang Huang pressed the Wu Gou Divine Soldier in Chen Dao's hand closest to him and shouted in a low voice, "Don't move!... We are in other people's territory. They are the owners of the place I just mentioned!"

"They are..."

"The ancient Yellow River Yi, the Li tribe!" Zhang Huang whispered.

[Li people? That's not the legend...]

Cai Yan and Xu Fu, the only one who had heard of the records of the book, looked at each other, unable to hide the horror on their faces. (To be continued...)
