"Then let me tell you all about this list."
Zhang Liang walked quickly to the list, read all the contents at a glance, and then turned around to explain to everyone. "Only the first and last few sentences of this list are useful. The rest are nonsense. The general idea is that Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Army is about to invade our Youzhou, and the prefect has come out to recruit volunteers to fight against thieves."
Someone asked immediately. "Brother from the Zhang family, I will wait until I have the strength and I am not afraid of death, but it says how much money will be paid for recruitment. I can't just go to the front and fight. My wife and children at home will be hungry."
This sentence was echoed by most people, because Youzhou is adjacent to Wuhuan, Xianbei and other foreign tribes, and will be invaded by them from time to time, so their Zhuoxian men will often accept the recruitment of the prefect to go to Liaoxi and other places to support, and there will be no war. Back to farming again.
Therefore, the men of Youzhou take matters of life and death relatively lightly, and do their duty when it comes to defending their home and country. Although they are generally not well educated, they know the righteousness in their hearts and are loyal to the Han Dynasty.
But first of all, they are other people's sons, husbands or fathers. How can they abandon their loved ones and become ruthless people in vain?
I saw a cold snort coming from the crowd, and a strong man with a leopard head, ringed eyes, and a tiger's beard shouted.
"The national crisis is facing us. We should do our best to serve the country. How can you care about those yellow and white things."
Zhang Liang saw that Li Dao was in a bad state and wondered why this man was here. Although he was in Zhuoxian County, he didn't want to be associated with Liu Bei's camp. He usually lived in seclusion, but he only went out today to borrow books.
Thinking of this time, Zhang Liangliang was surprised. Could it be that the three Liu Bei brothers were present today? He thought it couldn't be such a coincidence.
Facing Zhang Fei's shouting and cursing, most of the locals in the crowd remained silent, knowing that they could not afford to offend this man. Only a foreigner who had just arrived in Zhuoxian County was a little unhappy when he heard this. "You put it lightly. You want me to work hard, but you don't even want to give me anything. We also have a family to support, and we don't have time to wait for you to play with me."
Zhang Fei frowned, his eyes were as big as bells, and he shouted with a huge voice. "Don't you dare say it again."
The man was so frightened by Zhang Fei's authority that he slumped to the ground with a pale face. He quickly begged for mercy and kept shouting for mercy, brave man.
Zhang Fei didn't expect that this person was so useless, so he yelled and fell to the ground. Didn't this make his fellow villagers misunderstand that he was a bully? This was not good, so he walked towards that person with an explanation. In the past, the opponent was frightened and fainted, and the crowd watching the excitement all retreated in unison.
Just when Zhang Fei was depressed, a tall man with a height of nine feet appeared on the roadside. He was handsome and had a beautiful beard that was two feet long. He shouted loudly. "You have to show mercy to others, why are you so arrogant, you black guy?"
Zhang Fei narrowed his eyes slightly, and he was originally in a unhappy mood. He didn't expect that this roadside jujube vendor would dare to scold him, and he immediately responded rudely.
"Jujube seller, when will it be your turn to take care of your grandpa Yide's affairs." Guan Yu, who was already planning to join the army, immediately dropped his face when he heard Zhang Fei calling him a date seller. "Pig-killer, you are allowed to bully others, but you are not allowed to let others see injustice?"
Zhang Fei hates being called a pig-killer the most. Although his ancestors have been doing this lowly business for a living and his family is relatively well-off, it doesn't sound right. Therefore, he has been diligently learning martial arts since he was a child, in order to one day change his family background and no longer be looked down upon by others.
Angry in his heart, Zhang Fei sank and ran straight towards the strong man with red phoenix eyes opposite him. Not to be outdone, Zhang Fei bumped into him heavily.
The two of them were separated as soon as they collided, and they immediately put away their contempt in their hearts. They both understood that the opponent in front of them was not an easy person to deal with. Zhang Fei shouted loudly and punched him again. Guan Yu ducked sideways and grabbed one of his arms under his armpit to break his arm.
Unexpectedly, the experienced Zhang Fei immediately approached Guan Yu and hugged Guan Yu. The two began to wrestle in the field, and for a while neither could do anything to the other.
People like to watch lively things since ancient times. I saw that the onlookers were watching the fight with relish. Some even took out a handful of dry food they brought with them and started to stuff it into their mouths, hoping for another cup. Tea would be even better.
Zhang Liang, who knew what was going to happen next, would naturally no longer be interested. He glanced at the third uncle watching the fun next to him, and tugged at the corner of his clothes helplessly.
"Third Grandpa, let's go back to the village. Troubled times are coming, and you and I must make plans in advance."
"Hey, good boy, these two heroes haven't decided the winner yet, why are you so anxious?"
Zhang Liang rolled his eyes. When Zhang Fei roared just now, he didn't know who was holding his arm and trembling. Why was it okay now?
"If you don't leave, I will leave. Go back and tell Grandma Lian that you came out to drink secretly." Zhang San's face changed immediately when he heard this. The fierce tiger in his family was not a vegetarian. He repeatedly ordered not to drink by himself, so he hurriedly followed. Zhang Liang left.
Liu Bei in the crowd kept looking at Zhang Liang and followed him until he disappeared into the distance. Then he took off his bamboo hat and walked towards the two people who were already exhausted. He separated them in front of everyone and won. Received applause from the audience.
"Why don't you two heroes just let it go?" As the saying goes, heroes cherish heroes. With Liu Bei on the way, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei got off the slope and hugged each other's fists to apologize.
Zhang Fei also confessed that he just went there just to help the man from outside the county, and then he laughed at himself for scaring him because of his ferocious appearance, which made the onlookers laugh. Guan Yu also knew that he had misunderstood the hero in front of him, and he started to make friends in his heart. meaning.
The thoughtful Liu Bei immediately saw this. He always liked to make friends with heroes from all over the world, but he didn't expect to meet two of them in Zhuoxian County. How could he not be happy in his heart. So he pulled Zhang Fei and walked to the unconscious man. At this time, the man had woken up. He immediately apologized on behalf of Zhang Fei and gave him all the broken silver and copper coins he had on him.
The people from other counties who got the money were overjoyed, and since the other party also apologized, they immediately put the unpleasantness behind them, stood up, patted themselves and left. The onlookers also dispersed when they saw that there was no fun to watch.
"Did this guy just pretend to be faint? If not, I have to ask." Zhang Fei's straightforward speech immediately made Liu Bei and Guan Yu laugh, and they took him to have a drink together. Before leaving, Guan Yu glanced at his luggage and goods on the roadside, and then left without looking back.
After a few glasses of wine, the three of them quickly became acquainted with each other and began to tell each other their names and backgrounds. Guan Yu revealed that he had been a shameful bully and had accidentally killed someone. He had been wanted by the government in recent years. , wandering around incognito.
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei immediately applauded Guan Yu. They couldn't bear to see such a scum of the common people. However, when Zhang Fei introduced himself, he hesitated and said that he was a butcher and emphasized that it was his ancestral business.
Unexpectedly, Liu Bei immediately retorted. "How old I am, so I should be as thick-skinned as a brother. My dear brother Yide must not underestimate himself. Fan Kuai, the great general who was famous all over the world in the past, also made a living from this profession before he met Gaozu."
"What's more, I see that my virtuous brother has extraordinary martial arts skills and has great ambitions. Moreover, now is the time when the country is employing people. I don't know that he will not be able to achieve a great career in the future."
Zhang Fei's eyes turned red as he listened, and Guan Yu also nodded, particularly agreeing with Liu Bei's speech.
Unexpectedly, Liu Bei sighed heavily at this time, poured a large bowl of wine and drank it alone. This immediately aroused the curiosity of the two of them, and Zhang Fei asked repeatedly.
"Brother, why are you sighing? Chang Yun and I have already made peace with each other. Why don't you tell us if you have any difficulties? We can help you if we have the ability."
