Chapter 675 Sun Ce chases Yuji
Jiangdong at this time.
Sun Ce did not recover after Jiangxia was seriously injured by Zhang Fei, which led to his final defeat and was forced to take back to Wujun to recuperate.
As a lord, Sun Ce was embarrassed to be forced back by his subordinates again and again.
Sun Ce's personality is very pleasant. He was very angry at first, but in the end he felt that Zhou Yu and the others were doing it for their own safety, so the weather disappeared in a few days.
After a period of rest, Sun Ce's injuries were almost healed.
After healing, the scars forgot to hurt. Sun Ce has this personality. Sun Ce, who is active by nature, can't sit still in Wujun, and takes his subordinates to hunt around, harming wild animals in Jiangdong. The military and internal affairs of Jiangdong were handed over by Sun Ce to Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao, and he became the boss of the hand. Sun Ce thought so, since you want me to recover from the wounds, I can't be too busy, so some chores in the territory will be left to you to deal with. If you do well, there is no reward. This is what you should do. If you don't do well, Sun Ce will hold him accountable. Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao can only smile bitterly and keep working.
On this day, Sun Ce returned from hunting with his subordinates and gained a lot. Sun Ce was in a good mood and invited all his subordinates from Wu County on the city gate tower, eating the prey he hunted.
The whole banquet was very harmonious. Sun Ce had a rare opportunity to drink with his subordinates, but he didn't dare to drink too much. After all, his injuries have not been completely healed now. If Zhou Yu knew that he had such a big show of drinking, he would have been talking endlessly.
When Sun Ce was happy, there were bursts of noisy sounds under the city gate tower.
"What's going on? When is it so noisy outside?" Sun Ce said dissatisfied.
All the civil and military officials in the city gate tower stopped, and their lords were disturbed, which was not possible.
A soldier immediately walked into the city gate tower and said, "Go back to the lord, that's the old god passing by."
"Old God? What's the way it comes from?" Sun Ce became even more confused. Why didn't he know that there was someone called Old God?
"The old god is here. Come and see the true appearance of the old god." Many generals and civil servants present were excited, and they immediately left their seats and walked out.
Sun Ce did not expect that his subordinates would leave the seat without his consent. This was disrespect for him. Sun Ce said angrily: "Bastard! What are you doing! Stop them from both sides."
Sun Ce's personal soldiers immediately stepped forward to stop them, but they could not stop the fanaticism of these generals and civil servants, so they rushed out directly.
Sun Ce counted in his heart and found that more than two-thirds of his subordinates left their lords behind. This was the first time Sun Ce encountered such a thing.
The remaining subordinates all looked at Sun Ce nervously, and they didn't know what Sun Ce would do next.
Sun Ce walked out with a pale face, and the other subordinates immediately followed him out.
As soon as Sun Ce arrived outside the city gate tower, he saw several Taoist boys carrying a child-faced Taoist priest under the city gate tower. The Taoist priest was holding a staff in his hand and smilingly presented bowls of talisman water to the soldiers and civilians around him. The soldiers and civilians knelt on the ground with gratitude, shouting that the old gods were compassionate, and then they drank as if they had drunk the delicious food in the world. Many of Sun Ce's subordinates also knelt on the ground.
Sun Ce looked at his subjects and actually knelt down under the seats of other people. As the Lord, this was something that could not be tolerated.
"Who is that Taoist?? There are so many military and civilians who believe in him?" Sun Ce asked coldly.
Someone around him immediately came out and replied: "Go back to the lord, that's the old god. The old god is named Yu Ji, and he is a Taoist man. I heard that he has lived for more than 100 years and does not eat the fireworks of the world or grains. The old god burns incense and reads Taoist books in Wujun and Kuaiji areas, makes talismans to cure diseases, promotes the way of heaven, and is deeply loved by the people. Many of his colleagues are believers of the old gods, and their hearts are strong."
"So that's it! No wonder so many people believe him." Sun Ce finally understood why this person was so popular.
The world is in chaos, the people are poor, and some poor people are even short of medical treatment and medicine. Yu Ji's appearance of making talisman water to cure diseases for the people. It is through this that Yu Ji gained a large number of people's hearts.
In fact, Yu Ji was able to cure his illness and save him, which was beneficial to Sun Ce. But Yu Ji had already offended Sun Ce's bottom line. Sun Ce did not want his subordinates to be disobeyed. Now, because of Yu Ji's appearance, Sun Ce's subordinates left his master and came to him, which was simply a slap of Sun Ce in the face.
"Come on! I will catch the thief who is rumored to deceive the public!" Sun Ce shouted.
Everyone around was shocked, and many people knelt down for Sun Ce and begged: "Lord, no. That's an old god, you can't catch it."
"Bastard, what are you doing? This general is the lord of Jiangdong! Come and catch the thief. If there is any obstacle, you will be killed without mercy!" Sun Ce was very angry. Everyone's respect for Ji was far more than their awe of Sun Ce. How could Sun Ce tolerate Yu Ji's existence, which poses a threat to his power?
Sun Ce's personal soldiers were only responsible for Sun Ce. They didn't care about anything else. They pulled out the knife and rushed down the city tower, and caught Yu Ji fiercely.
Yu Ji had never seen such a mutation, and he was in a mess. The surrounding soldiers and civilians surrounded him, and they did not allow these people to be disrespectful to the old gods. But in front of the bright swords, these people stopped. The personal soldiers issued Sun Ce's order, and everyone knew that this was their lord who wanted to capture Yu Ji.
Yu Ji was taken to Sun Ce, and a large number of people had gathered downstairs of the city gate. They were very worried about Yu Ji's safety.
"You are Yu Ji!" Sun Ce stared at Yu Ji coldly.
Sun Ce was full of murderous aura, and Yu Jimanlou said nervously: "It's me. I wonder what General Sun has to give?"
Yu Ji knew Sun Ce, but he couldn't know Sun Ce when walking in Jiangdong.
"Your rumors confuse the public. Japan will kill you now!" Sun Ce pulled out his sword and pressed it on Yu Ji's neck, saying, "I will give you a chance to explain your last words!"
"My lord, no. You must not kill!" Sun Ce's subordinates were frightened. No one wanted to see Yu Ji being killed, and they all pleaded for mercy.
"Old immortal!" The people downstairs of the city gate also heard Sun Ce sticking his sword to Yu Ji's neck and screaming sadly.
Seeing this scene, Sun Ce's murderous intent became stronger and stronger, and he said, "What are the last words!"
"General Bo Fu, his reputation is worthy of it." Yu Ji sneered.
When Sun Ce heard this sarcasm, he immediately became furious and said, "How dare you!"
Sun Ce's sword is closer
"Isn't it? General Bo Fu is called the Little Overlord by the world. I think how powerful the King of Chu was back then. Eight thousand soldiers swept the whole world, overthrew the tyrant Qin, and then divided the princes of the world. People say that the king is not a domineering, which is exactly this. On the contrary, when the general raised his troops, he abandoned the city in Changsha and fled to the rebels of Yuan Shu, and then abandoned Yuan Shu and became independent. He advanced to Xuzhou and was defeated by Guan Yu, and now he was defeated by a reckless man Zhang Fei in Jiangxia. The general has no courage, no measure of the King, and no achievements of the King. Isn't the name of the little overlord? "Yu Ji knew that he was dead, so he satirized Sun Ce even more.
"Aren't you afraid of death?" Sun Ce's eyes shined.
Yu Ji said frankly: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature. I have also prepared to die for my own martyrdom."
Sun Ce stopped the movements in his hand, looked at Yu Ji coldly, and finally said, "You make sense. This general is indeed incomparable to the King of Western Chu. Over the years, this general has done a lot. You are also the first person to dare to speak like this in front of this general. This general is not the kind of lord who kills indiscriminately. Today I will spare your life and get out of the territory of Jiangdong. I don't want to see you again!"
If it were a few years earlier, Sun Ce would have killed Yu Ji directly. Now, after several failures, Sun Ce has matured a lot and has become able to control his temper. At the same time, Sun Ce even thought that Yu Ji had so many followers in Jiangdong, and if he killed him, it would definitely make Jiangdong chaotic. Now that Sun Ce has returned in Jiangxia, he does not want any accidents in Jiangdong, so that others will have the opportunity to take advantage of it.
Yu Ji didn't expect that he could survive under Sun Ce's butcher's knife, so he was ready to die. Yu Ji had to re-examine Sun Ce. It seemed that Sun Ce was no longer the reckless man who did whatever he wanted, but a wise master who knew how to weigh the trade-offs.
When Sun Ce lets Yu Ji go, Sun Ce's subordinates breathed a sigh of relief.
"Get out quickly! If I see you in the future, wash my neck and wait for me to kill you!" Sun Ce threatened.
Yu Ji nodded heavily, then walked down the city wall in the reluctant eyes of Sun Ce's subordinates.
I don’t know if it was because of fear or nervousness, but Yu Ji almost fell down when his feet were weak. Fortunately, Yu Ji held the handrail tightly, otherwise he would definitely die. The Taoist boy brought by Yu Ji came to support him immediately and carefully helped Yu Ji to the bottom of the city gate tower.
This scene was seen by everyone, and their inner beliefs collapsed a little. The gods actually fell down by themselves?! How could the gods fall? If it is true, then this god is fake.
Sun Ce showed a smile on his face, you are a kid who is tactful.
Of course, Yu Ji pretended to fall. After living for so many years, Yu Ji has seen so many ups and downs. He knows the importance of acting and can save his life at critical moments. Sun Ce can let go of himself in front of so many people because there are many people who believe in him. His prestige in Jiangdong has surpassed Sun Ce, and it is normal for Sun Ce to kill him. Yu Ji's ambition is to benefit the people, promote Taoism, educate the people, and what is the point of compromise?
In fact, Yu Ji was worried that Sun Ce would send someone to kill him secretly. Now that Sun Ce does not kill him, Yu Ji couldn't guarantee whether Sun Ce would change his mind in the future. The master's mind cannot be figured out, so Yu Ji still prevented it if he did.
Yu Ji immediately took his Taoist boy away without any stop.
The military and civilians present looked confused. They had no culture or knowledge anymore and knew that the old god was not a god. At this time, the military and civilians immediately became confused.
Sun Ce suddenly stood on the city gate tower and said to all the soldiers and civilians: "Everyone, there are so many plagues in Jiangdong. I am the lord of Jiangdong. I will definitely send people to deal with these plagues. I will give the people in Jiangdong a Qingming Festival!"
The military and civilians looked up when they heard the sound. Sun Ce was wearing armor at this time, and under the sunlight, it was very dazzling, as if a god appeared in front of them. The military and civilians suddenly discovered that they had been ignoring a certain point. The little overlord Sun Ce was the lord of Jiangdong and the guardian god of their stable life.
"The lord is mighty!" I don't know who shouted.
Then the same sentence echoed throughout the city gate tower: "The lord is mighty!"
The military and civilians in Jiangdong had a new belief in their hearts, that is, the lord of Jiangdong and the little overlord Sun Ce.
Sun Ce looked at the soldiers and civilians shouting at him under the city gate tower, and felt very excited. I am the lord of Jiangdong! No one can suppress me here!
Yu Ji, who had already walked far away, heard the cheers of the military and civilians, and looked back at the young figure in the distance.
"The little overlord is indeed worthy of his reputation." Yu Ji sighed. Sun Ce's performance has refreshed his cognition. This is the style that the Lord of Jiangdong should have.
"Master, where are we going next? General Sun said he wanted us to leave Jiangdong." Yu Ji's disciples and Taoist boys didn't know where they were going next.
Yu Ji smiled and said, "Those who practice Taoism are all places to go. Remember, the high realm of no desire and no desire that Taoism pursues. The land in Jiangdong cannot be kept, so we will go to the north."
Yu Ji's teachings benefited a lot from several disciples and Taoist children, but they still asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go to Luoyang." Yu Ji said.
Yu Ji came from Luoyang and has not returned to Luoyang for many years. Yu Ji received guidance from experts and learned a lot of skills to observe the star signs at night to predict future events. He predicted that Luoyang would encounter huge disasters. Going to good fortune and avoiding misfortunes is the most basic pursuit of a Taoist man. Yu Ji immediately left Luoyang until now.
Even if Yu Ji had a great disaster last night, he would be fine if he crossed it. However, no matter how capable Yu Ji was, he could not calculate what his great disaster was. In the end, he tried his best to find that there was a glimmer of hope in this great disaster. This is true, Yu Ji avoided this great disaster.
The plan to go to Luoyang was not something Yu Ji had suddenly had. Recently, when he was observing the celestial phenomena at night, he found that purple qi was scattered in Luoyang. Even if Yu Ji's ability was not very reliable, he could still know that Luoyang was the safest place.
