The freshest and most beautiful moment in the north.? The sky seemed to have been washed, without a trace of clouds and mist, high and far. A round moon climbed out from the ridge in the east, like a big lantern, illuminating the lakeside, projecting the shadows of branches and grass on the lake surface, and flowers dotted. Guan Yan lay quietly in the tent, but his head was stretched out from the tent and looked up at the stars in the sky. Such a sky, such water, and such air would never be found in later generations. Guan Yan took a deep breath and enjoyed this tranquility and comfort.

"There are thieves!" A long roar broke through the silence of the long night. The outside of the tent was in chaos, and Guan Yan turned over and left the tent, and Zhou Cang was also hurried out of the tent. Guan Yan asked, "General Zhou, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Cang pointed to the official army camp and replied, "It seems that something happened to them."

A man in black was caught in the middle by more than forty officers. In the dark night, the man could not see clearly. He was holding a big sword in his right hand and holding the prisoner escorted by the official in his left hand. Cai Zhe hid behind the two officers and soldiers and said loudly: "That thief, if you surrender, I can keep your entire body." The man in black snorted coldly, kept silent, just looked at the officers and soldiers around him with alert eyes. Two officers and soldiers wanted to attack from behind. The man in black roared and twisted his body, twisted his body and slashed the sword with fierce swords. His sword skills were fierce, and both slashed the necks and blood sprayed the man over. Seeing this, the other officers and soldiers looked at each other in fear and did not dare to approach him.

The two sides were in a stalemate for a while, and the prisoner who was being held by the big man panted: "My son Xuangao, my father is old, and he will die if he dies. Be sure to drag me down and leave." After hearing this, Guan Yan said in his heart: It turns out that it was his son who came to save me, and he was filial. Xuangao? He is a little familiar.

Just as Guan Yan was thinking, the man roared and waved his sword and "slashed Huashan" from top to bottom to split a soldier in front of him in half, and said loudly: "My father has raised his son for eighteen years, and his son has no filial piety. Now his father is harmed by corrupt officials. He should give up his body seven feet to ensure that his father is safe!" After that, he cut off the old man's lock and protected him slowly retreated.

This time, no one of the officers and soldiers dared to approach him within ten steps. Seeing this situation, Cai Zhe was anxious and shouted: "If you escaped by the prisoner, how can you explain to the prefect to the prefect? ​​Do you forget the prefect's methods?" It seems that the prefect is a cruel person. The officials and officers were indeed threatened by this sentence and gritted their teeth and went to the prefect.

However, this great man is very skilled in martial arts, and Cai Zhe still has no psychological understanding. He squinted his eyes and was about to think of some trick to subdue the man.

Inadvertently, Cai Zhe glanced at Guan Yan and others standing not far away. Cai Zhe turned his eyes and bowed to Guan Yan, "That young master, the thief is in trouble now, and the young master is also a member of Yanzhou. I hope the young master will help you. Afterwards, the prefect will thank you very much!" Cai Zhe's words were carrots and sticks. He reminded Guan Yan that you are from Yanzhou, we are officials from Taishan County, Yanzhou, and we are local snakes. He also promised that if Guan Yan helped, the prefect would reward you.

Guan Yan thought about it and smiled slightly: "We are willing to help you with your help!" Cai Zhe was overjoyed: "Okay! Please take this person down!" Guan Yan turned his head and said a few words to Zhou Cang. A cold light flashed across Zhou Cang and said softly: "Don't worry, young master." At this time, the Yellow Turban Strongman was standing aside to watch the fun. Zhou Cang turned around and shouted: "Sons, search the guys!"

Guan Yan was stunned by himself, and Zang Ba and Zang Jie and his son were uncomfortable. Zang Jie asked in a low voice, "Why are you young master?" Guan Yan was shocked and replied, "Ah~ This~ I think Xuan Gao is a martial arts master, and I am really a tiger general in the world!" Zang Jie was very helpful after hearing this sentence, and said proudly: "Xuan Gao was famous for his bravery since he was a child, and he was familiar with military books. I am always proud of his son." After that, Zang Jie happily stroked his beard.

Guan Yan wanted to know where they were going, so he asked carefully: "I don't know what Mr. Zang wants to do?" When talking about his future plans, Zang Jie's expression immediately became weak, and he sighed and said, "Now there are yellow turbans outside the court and corrupt politics inside. I am old, and I wish to get a place to live my life." Zang Jie closed his eyes, and his endless vicissitudes and helplessness, wiped the corners of his eyes with faint tears with his dry right hand, and then said, "I only cherish my son, but I have no use of skills!"

Hearing this sentence, Guan Yan's index finger was shaking and tentatively said: "If Zang Gong trusts you, Xuan Gao can follow me. Although he has no talent, he can find a job for Xuan Gao, and he will never let down his reputation of bravery!"

"Oh?" Zang Jie was shocked, and his eyes were filled with spirit. He looked at Guan Yan and said, "Young Master is the savior of my father and son. If my son follows you, you can not only find a good future, but also repay the kindness of saving your life. I will not be able to ask for it!" Zang Jie pulled Zang Ba over and continued, "My son pays homage to the lord." Zang Ba was very obedient, lifted up his robe and was about to kneel down.

Guan Yan held Zang Ba's shoulder, looked at Zang Jie with a blank expression and said, "Wait, Mr. Zang didn't ask me who I am?" Zang Jie looked up and down and said, "I see that the young master is majestic, and all the generals of Kong Wu are powerful. I believe that the young master must be the descendant of the prominent clan."

"I am Guan Yan, the young commander of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou!" Guan Yan stared at Zang Jie and said word by word.

In fact, Guan Yan really wanted Zang Ba to stay by his side, but he had to let him know who he was. Otherwise, if he would lie to him now, he would be able to keep the fire in the future and Zang Ba knew the truth. If he slaughtered him in anger, he would be a big loss.

When Zang Jie heard this, he stood up as if he was stunned and looked at Guan Yan with a complicated expression. After a long time, Zang Jie sighed and said, "You are a thief, and I am an official, and I should have captured you." Zhou Cang was furious when he heard this: "You two are really ungrateful people, want to take my major general? First ask if I want to have a sword in my hand!" After that, he wanted to draw his sword and chop people.

Zang Ba was also unambiguous, and pulled out his knife to protect Zang Jie. His comrades just now became enemies in a blink of an eye. Guan Yan turned around and held Zhou Cang's right hand tightly and said loudly: "General Zhou, don't move, listen to Mr. Zang." Zhou Cang glared at Zang Jie and looked at the firm expression on Guan Yan's face, snorted, put the knife into the sheath, turned around and stopped looking at Zang Jie and his son.

Guan Yan bowed to Zang Jie and said, "Do you dare to ask if Mr. Zang has any position?" Guan Yan had heard Zang Jie introduce himself before. He asked him knowingly, just to remind Zang Jie: You were framed by Shangguan and almost killed, and he said what kind of official you are? You are like me now, who are wanted by the government.

Sure enough, Guan Yan's words made Zang Jie's expression look very painful. "Ah~ I also know that I am unable to protect myself now. And as today's chaos, Taiping Dao is in a state of storm. However, I, Zang Jie, received a salary from the Han Dynasty, whether it was an official or a thief, just want to have a clear conscience. I will never allow Zang's descendants to insult the Han Dynasty for a day!" Although Zang Jie's words were harsh, Guan Yan seemed to hear something from it.

Zang Jie looked at Zang Ba deeply and continued, "When I die, my son can come to see General Guan to repay his kindness today."

Zang Ba was startled and knelt down and said, "My father has a long life and long life, how can he talk about life and death easily?" Zang Jie laughed, "Xuan Gao should know that life and death are the only way. I have suffered from this disaster for more than ten years, and now I have suffered this disaster again, and my strength is exhausted!" Guan Yan sighed and said, "Why should Mr. Zang? Why should I do this? Why..." Before he finished speaking, Zang Jie raised his dry palm and interrupted Guan Yan's words: "General, don't say much, your order is saved by the general. If the general wants to stay, my father and son should kill him. If he wants to see each other again, I hope the general will make a way." Guan Yan stared at Zang Jie, but the thin Zang Jie stared at Guan Yan without showing any weakness.

Guan Yan was very confused: This was the first general I met in this world, but Zang Jie was so resentful about his identity. Although he asked Zang Ba to come and serve after he died, how could he know if he lied to me? It was a pity to kill the two of them, and he was afraid of missing the opportunity. Alas, I finally understood how Cao Mengde felt about Guan Yu back then. Guan Yan and Zang Jie looked at each other. I don’t know who started, and they laughed at the same time.

After a long time, the laughter gradually stopped. Guan Yan bowed deeply to Zang Jie and said, "Zang Gong Gaojie, although we are Taiping Taoist people, we also take loyalty and righteousness as a warning. Since the Duke does not want to stay, Yan will not force it." After that, Guan Yan waved his hand and all the Yellow Turban Strongmen standing around retreated behind Guan Yan. Guan Yan stretched his right hand forward and said, "Zang Gong, please do whatever you want." Zang Jie did not say anything, but just hugged Guan Yan, then turned around with Zang Ba's support and walked slowly towards the official road. Guan Yan kept looking at the figures of the two until they gradually disappeared into the darkness...
