Lu Zigan looked at the man's dress and didn't look like Dong Zhongying's person.

"Who are you working for?" he asked.

"I was sent by Mr. Ding Jianyang." said the messenger.

"Ding Jianyang?" I have never heard of this name.

Cao Mengde, who was standing aside, whispered: "Ding Jianyang is also a rising figure in the war against the Yellow Turban Army. It is said that he has a good relationship with the 'big bosses' in Chang'an City. Ding Jianyang obtained the latest weapon of Chang'an City Research - the 'Fang Tian Hua Ji', which is a weapon that can only be used by heavy mechas. However, Ding Jianyang did not have a heavy mecha suitable for Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand, so he could only set it on a mobile fortress."

"Mobile Fortress? Wouldn't it become a turret for movement?" I think Ding Jianyang's idea is very interesting, but if you set up the weapons used by mechas on the mobile fortress, you may not be able to exert your maximum strength?

The messenger said: "Mr. Ding's mobile fortress is called 'Xuanwu', and his godson Lu Fengxian is personally in charge of command. Under the firepower of the two weapons, 'Xuanwu' and 'Fangtian Huaji', there has been no enemy yet."

While saying these words, the messenger showed a smug look on his face.

"It sounds so amazing!" Zhang Yide said.

"Of course!" The pride on the messenger's face became even stronger.

"What is a movable fortress?" Zhang Yide looked like a curious baby at this time. In his memory, the word movable fortress appeared for the first time.

The messenger was instantly angry: "It is a fortress that can be moved, with tracks under it, which can be moved, and is equipped with cannons and armor..."

"It sounds like a chariot." Zhang Yide looked disappointed, "I thought it was something advanced. We also have chariots. A batch just seized."

"You...you..." The messenger was stunned. It was probably the first time he met someone like Zhang Yide.

Guan Yunchang explained to Zhang Yide: "Mobile fortresses are much larger and more complex weapons than tanks, and their firepower and defense are far better than ordinary tanks. If they are equipped with the latest weapons from Chang'an and defeated the Yellow Turban Army, they should not be underestimated."

A proud look appeared on the messenger's face again.

However, Guan Yunchang changed the subject: "We did not move the fortress, and we defeated the Yellow Turban Army and seized so much equipment. We should be more powerful than Ding Jianyang, right?"

The messenger's expression collapsed again.

Guan Yunchang, who is underage, has a more confident mentality than ordinary people, and may be called pride. However, at that age, he achieved so many impressive results, so what reason is there not to be proud?

In order to prevent the messenger from falling into a more awkward situation, Lu Zigan took him into a house next to him and communicated with him.

The exchange lasted about ten minutes. The door opened, the messenger came out of it, and the expression on his face returned to normal.

He did not say goodbye to everyone, but got into his car and drove in the direction he came.

"What did this guy say?" Yuan Jin asked Lu Zigan.

Lu Zi smiled dryly: "What else can it be? Dong Zhongying and Ding Jianyang have always been incompatible. Ding Jianyang thought we followed Dong Zhongying wholeheartedly, so he sent someone to explore our foundation first. I told the messenger that we and Dong Zhongying were just working together in a short term. After returning to Chang'an, they went their own way. The messenger believed my words. I wonder if Ding Jianyang would believe it."

"That's all?"

"That's all. The messenger said he would keep in touch with us often. He left this." Lu Zigan took out a small box, "It is said that it is an encrypted communication system developed by Ding Jianyang's scientific researchers. The Yellow Turban Army cannot decipher such encrypted communication signals for the time being. We can contact Ding Jianyang through it."

"It seems bad to step on two boats like this..." Zhang Yide frowned.

"We did not step on two boats. Ding Jianyang did not win us over, nor did we betray our agreement with Dong Zhongying." Lu Zigan patted Zhang Yide on the shoulder, "Don't be stressed psychologically. We are born in troubled times to survive."

We did not stay in the village, but built a temporary camp in the nearby forest. Lu Zigan proposed this. He believed that the area in the village was easy to attack and difficult to defend, and it was all plain terrain, and the target was easily exposed when fighting, so it would be better to leave it to the mercenaries. However, our temporary camp was built on trees, and from the outside, it seemed that there was no hiding people here.

Even the two huge mechas were cleverly hidden by us.

The encrypted communication device left by the messenger was put away by Lu Zi. He used the device from time to time to communicate with Ding Jianyang's people in order to understand the information outside.

We were stationed in the forest for a month. Although the resources in this forest were limited (I mean food), it was enough for us.

I have asked Zhao Zilong to help me identify the bottle brought out from the ghost crying pass. He said there was some pattern on it.

"What pattern?" I asked.

"It seems to be some kind of ancient prophecy. The bottle looks at least a thousand years old. The engraved on it is all ancient words."

"What have you predicted?"

Zhao Zilong said: "I recognize the first two sentences. 'The sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand up.' For the others, since my knowledge of ancient characters is not very profound, I won't be ugly for now."

"The sky is dead... Huang Tian should stand..." I thought for a long time. Suddenly, a thought jumped into my mind: "Do you think this is a prophecy of the rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army?"

"It's possible. But it's also possible it's just a coincidence." Zhao Zilong shrugged.

"By the way, where did you learn this knowledge? I think it's very profound." I said.

Zhao Zilong's tone was sad: "That was a long time ago, so don't ask again."

"Okay." I temporarily gave up the idea of ​​digging into the bottom line.

"I also found something else in the bottle," he said.

“What is it?”

Zhao Zilong took out an oil paper bag from his pocket, and after opening it, it was a crystal clear "stone".

"Is this Xingzhi?!" I was so surprised.

"Yes, it's the star marrow. I didn't expect that the star marrow would appear in this bottle, and I don't know what the function of this star marrow has. But I can be sure that it is not the kind of star marrow that Sun Zhongmou and his sisters were looking for." Zhao Zilong handed me the star marrow, "You can take it, after all, it was you found it."

I took the Xingzhi and asked, "Why aren't this Xingzhi they are looking for?"

Zhao Zilong said: "The star marrow with medical effects is only available in one place." He pointed to the distance: "It is our destination, Chang'an!"
