In a relatively remote room in Julu, there should not be many people here, but at this moment, there were more than ten people discussing something in this room.
"Big brother! We already have a lot of disciples now. When can we start the uprising?”The person who spoke was the youngest man among the three people sitting in the group. Hearing this, the man sitting in the middle sighed and said,""Sigh, we can see that there are many disciples now, but an uprising is after all a matter that concerns the lives of the world. We can't be so hasty.”The other man who did not speak saw that the youngest of the three was about to speak and immediately said,"Third brother! Big brother is right. The uprising is a big matter. We definitely can't be so careless. We have to make as many preparations as possible. Otherwise, only death awaits us.”The man who wanted to speak stopped talking.
It turned out that these three were the three brothers, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang. Zhang Jiao was originally a talented scholar, but because of the corruption of the local officials, he was not selected. Therefore, Zhang Jiao hated the government.
One day, Zhang Jiao went up the mountain to pick herbs. He met an old man with blue eyes and a cane in his hand. The old man gave him three volumes of the Tomes of Arcane. The old man said," The title of this book is 'The Art of Peace.' If you get it, you will be enlightened by Heaven and save the world. If you have any other intentions, you will definitely be punished." Hearing this, Zhang Jiao was overjoyed. He quickly thanked the old man and asked for his name. The old man said,""I am Old Immortal Nanhua." With that, he turned into a gust of wind and left.
Ever since Zhang Jiao had gotten the [Essence of Peace], he had studied it day and night and learned many spells. In the beginning, Zhang Jiao treated the commoners dutifully and taught some skills to his disciples, asking them to help. However, as the number of disciples increased, he developed the idea of fighting for the world. Thus, the Road of Peace, which had almost all the disciples in the country, was born.
At this moment, the people in this room were all influential people in the entire Road of Peace. Other than Zhang Jiao and his two brothers, there were only a few of Zhang Jiao's proudest disciples. They were currently discussing the uprising.
Zhang Jiao looked at his two brothers, shook his head and sighed,"These two younger brothers of mine are both mediocre. The second brother is fine and is more stable. The third brother is not so good. He is arrogant and doesn't listen to others 'advice.”Thinking of this, Zhang Jiao raised his head and looked at the few young men standing in front of them. Then, he fixed his eyes on a young man." Fortunately, I have such an outstanding disciple."”Zhang Jiao nodded while thinking, his eyes full of praise and gratification.
Zhang Jiao looked around at everyone in the room and said,"Alright, I have my own plans for the uprising. You don't need to think too much. I don't care about those lackeys of the imperial court. However, you need to be careful of Fan Xing in Youzhou. So far, we don't have a single disciple in the five prefectures under Fan Xing's jurisdiction.”Hearing Zhang Jiao's words, everyone in the room immediately responded respectfully,"Yes, I am! Sect Master (Big Brother)!" Zhang Jiao nodded."Alright, that's it. Tianqi, you stay here. I have something to tell you. The rest of you can leave. Remember to be careful."”After saying that, other than the young man called Tian Qi, the others hurriedly left the house.
At the same time, in a room in an inn in Luoyang, a middle-aged man was writing a letter with all his attention. His thin face occasionally revealed a sinister smile and slightly narrowed triangular eyes, making people feel extremely disgusted.
The night was getting darker, and the door of Julu's remote house suddenly opened. A young man walked out from inside. He first looked left and right to make sure that there was no one around, then quickly ran in a direction and finally disappeared into the darkness.
In an inconspicuous village, the young man from before was currently in a house in this village. He sat on a stool and stared at the three books in his hand without blinking. His eyes flickered with uncertainty.
This man was the young man called Tian Qi who Zhang Jiao had left behind. Although Tian Qi was accepted as his disciple last year, he was the most valued disciple of Zhang Jiao. Although Tian Qi was young, he was steady and talented. Most of Zhang Jiao's disciples were poor commoners. Occasionally, some of the underachieving talents were not as good as Tian Qi.
Zhang Jiao knew that there was no one else in the Road of Peace who could take on such a great responsibility except for him. Although there were some talents, they could only lead an army at most. They might be able to come up with strategies, but they couldn't lead the entire Road of Peace. Therefore, he wanted Tian Qi to be his successor. Zhang Jiao had asked Tian Qi to stay just now to explain this matter to him. He had also given Tian Qi his treasured " Tactics of Peace ".
At this moment, Tian Qi was thinking about what Zhang Jiao had told him in the room. Although he knew that he was highly regarded by Zhang Jiao, he had never thought that Zhang Jiao would want him to be the successor of the Road of Peace. If it were anyone else, they would have sworn their loyalty to Zhang Jiao. However, Zhang Jiao had never expected that he was actually a spy arranged by his lord. If Zhang Jiao knew what Tian Qi was thinking, he would probably have the heart to die. However, Zhang Jiao did not know. Now, he might still be glad that he had taken in a good disciple. He was planning to announce the identity of Tian Qi as the young master of the Road of Peace tomorrow.
The lord of Tianqi was Fan Xing. Fan Xing had the memories of his previous life. Although history had changed a lot because of his arrival, the general direction would not change. Therefore, Fan Xing had arranged for his subordinates to sneak into the Road of Peace a year ago to maintain control of the news in the Road of Peace. However, Fan Xing might not have expected that his subordinates would be so outstanding.
Tian Qi looked at the ? Taiping Essential Technique ? in his hand and sighed."If I hadn't already acknowledged my lord, I would have pledged my loyalty to Zhang Jiao. However, Zhang Jiao is indeed a character. He can see the abilities of his subordinates clearly and won't blindly rely on others.”After he finished speaking, he focused on the [Taiping Essential Art] for a while and said,"Men!" As soon as he finished speaking, a person suddenly appeared in front of Tian Qi in the dark room. Tian Qi handed the << Taiping Essence Technique >> to that person and said,""You must hand it over to the lord as soon as possible.”The man simply nodded and then suddenly disappeared, as if he had never appeared.
A day later, at the Xuantu County Governor's Mansion, Fan Xing was overjoyed as he held the " The Art of Peace " that had just been delivered. Even the heavens wanted to help him. He was already very happy when he learned that his subordinate, Tianqi, had become the Young Master of the Road of Peace. With the identity of the Young Master, he would have greater confidence in the Yellow Turban Army, and it was very likely that he could get unimaginable results at a very small price.
But what was even more surprising was that Zhang Jiao had even given Tianqi the "Vital Tactics of Peace", which meant that he had given it to him. How could this not make him excited? He was also very curious about the book. After all, it was a famous book. He stopped talking nonsense and started reading. However, the more Fan Xing read, the more shocked he became. Although Fan Xing didn't see any powerful spells in the book, he saw many precious medical skills and prescriptions. Although the medical skills of his previous life were far inferior, many of those prescriptions couldn't be compared to the modern world. Fan Xing immediately put the book away carefully.
Two days later, the whole of Luoyang was shaken. The reason was a letter, but the content of the letter was extremely shocking. It was about the imminent uprising of the Road of Peace. The sudden news made the imperial court feel at a loss. The imperial court immediately ordered the emergency capture of Ma Yuanyi and the execution of him in Luoyang. They also mobilized various forces to capture and kill more than 1,000 of Zhang Jiao's followers. He also informed Jizhou to capture Zhang Jiao and his family.
Soon, Zhang Jiao received the news that the uprising had been exposed. He immediately used various methods to inform all parties to start the uprising. "The heavens shall die, the yellow heavens shall stand, the year shall be in Jiazi, and the world shall be blessed."”Zhang Jiao called himself the "General of Heaven", his younger brother Zhang Bao called himself the "General of Earth", and Zhang Liang called himself the "General of Human". Zhang Jiao's army was all wrapped in yellow turbans and was called the "Yellow Turban Army" at that time.
Due to the response of the masses, some joined the army as believers, some sent food and clothes, and the uprising army developed very quickly. After the rebel army conquered the towns, they would often burn down the government offices, kill the corrupt officials, and distribute their property to the people. The corrupt officials usually tyrannized over the people, but when they heard the arrival of the rebel army, they would be scared out of their wits and run away like stray dogs. Within ten days, the world was shocked and the capital was shocked.
