Chapter 1 It’s all here
Wei Xiaobao, the most popular person in front of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, Deputy Minister of the Imperial Guard, Commander-in-Chief of the Plain Yellow Banner of the Cavalry Battalion, who was granted the title of Baturu and was a first-class viscount and wore a yellow jacket, was standing in the street in a daze.

Wei Xiaobao, who appeared along with the strange phenomenon in the sky, had already scared the people on the streets of Yangzhou and made them flee in all directions. Only a few brave ones hid in the alleys and secretly observed this strange man with half of his head shaved and a long braid.

Wei Xiaobao tried hard to recall everything that had happened before. He followed Xiao Xuanzi's order and went to Yangzhou to supervise the construction of Shi Kefa's Martyrs' Shrine. After making a fuss in Chanzhi Temple, he returned to the headquarters and asked Shuang'er to change him into a set of tattered clothes. Then he went to Lichunyuan to visit his mother Wei Chunhua.

Wei Xiaobao looked at his greasy old clothes, confirming his memory.

He grew up in Yangzhou City and was familiar with every street and alley in Yangzhou, but the streets and buildings in front of him were unfamiliar to him. This was definitely not the rich and prosperous Yangzhou City, and it was not even as good as Fuping County at the foot of Mount Wutai.

Wei Xiaobao shook his head and thought, "Could it be that the idea of ​​returning to Yangzhou was just a dream? I haven't even reached Mount Wutai to find the old emperor yet."

Thinking of Xiao Xuanzi's father, Wei Xiaobao didn't dare to delay any longer and consoled himself: "You must be missing my mother, that's why you have these messed up dreams. Once you find the old emperor, I'll take Shuang'er back to Yangzhou. Anyway, I've already told Xiao Xuanzi everything about that old bitch, the Queen Mother, so it can't be considered that I'm not loyal. It's just that my first and second wives are still in the Shenlong Cult waiting for me to rescue them."

Just as Wei Xiaobao was trying to recall how he got here, he heard shouts from behind him: "The blue sky has died, the yellow sky is established, the year is Jiazi, and the world is blessed with good fortune."

Hearing these shouts, Wei Xiaobao was startled: "Could it be that the magic of that old turtle, Master Hong, really worked?"

Although Wei Xiaobao is uneducated, he grew up listening to stories in a teahouse in Yangzhou, and he knows that the group of people shouting slogans are the Yellow Turban Army in the story of the Three Kingdoms.

By this time, Wei Xiaobao had fully realized that he had been transported to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty by Hong Antong's magic. As for where Hong Antong had learned this mysterious magic, it was all thanks to Wei Xiaobao's help. Wei Xiaobao led Shi Lang in an attack on the Shenlong Cult. The Shenwu Cannon bombarded the island with devastating blasts, inadvertently destroying the Dragon Pond on Shenlong Island and allowing Hong Antong to find the treasure left behind by General Tiangong.

This treasure was left behind by General Tian Gong, who caused chaos in the world at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In addition to the gold and silver treasures that were robbed, it also hides a huge secret.

General Tiangong, a disciple of the Nanhua Immortal, mastered a technique that allowed him to travel between the past and present. He succeeded only once, and that time revealed the loss of the Imperial Seal shortly after the Yellow Turban Rebellion was suppressed, followed by the subsequent acquisition of the seal by Yuan Shu, who proclaimed himself emperor. General Tiangong then recorded the technique and the seal's story in a secret chamber on Snake Island, awaiting the opportunity for future generations to return to the turbulent era, recover the seal, and reclaim his cause.

Hong Antong was cunning and unsure whether this was true or not. He was also worried that even if the magic worked, there would be no way to return to the Qing Dynasty. So he captured Wei Xiaobao and threatened him with the lives of Fang Yi and Mu Jianping to force him to surrender.

Even if Wei Xiaobao regretted bombarding the Shenlong Island or going to Lichunyuan alone to make trouble, he had to save his life first and then think of a solution.

Wei Xiaobao was addicted to gambling, and at this moment he also had a gambler's mentality: "I can't bet before rolling the dice. I have to see the situation clearly first."

Seeing the Yellow Turban Army's large group of troops getting closer and closer, Wei Xiaobao quickly hid in an alley and observed quietly.

The Yellow Turban Army had a thousand men, and they marched along the street for a long time without seeing the end of their army.

In the crowd there were soldiers wearing light armor and holding long spears, as well as ragged civilians holding farm tools, and even a large number of unarmed people in the back. These diverse people shouted in unison the slogan "The blue sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established, the year is Jiazi, and the world is auspicious." Coupled with their large numbers, the scene was quite impressive, which made people feel timid.

Wei Xiaobao, who was hiding in the dark, couldn't help laughing in his heart: "No wonder the Yellow Turban Army couldn't accomplish anything great. If the Tiandihui were like them, Xiao Xuanzi would have captured them all and killed them long ago." Wei Xiaobao covered his mouth and laughed, but found that the people hiding with him were all staring at him.

Wei Xiaobao felt uneasy under their gaze. He subconsciously rubbed his head and thought to himself, "I'm dressed like a Tartar. If they find out, they'll think I'm a spy and kill me right away."

In fact, there was no such thing as the Manchus in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and even the Jurchens, the ancestors of the Manchus, did not appear. However, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, people believed that one's hair and skin were inherited from one's parents, and people who shaved half of their hair like Wei Xiaobao would indeed be considered an outlier.

Wei Xiaobao naturally didn't know this, but he also knew that he was different from others and would inevitably cause trouble. Just as he was worrying about this, he saw a headscarf on the ground at the entrance of the alley flying back and forth with the footsteps of the marching troops.

Without giving it any time to think, Wei Xiaobao rushed out, picked up the headscarf and wrapped it around his head. Just as he was feeling proud of his cleverness, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder.

"What are you doing?"

The scolding from behind frightened Wei Xiaobao so much that his legs went weak. His bent knees suddenly lost their strength and he actually knelt on the ground.

"It's over. I've been discovered. These rebels will definitely arrest me as a Tartar spy. The Tiandihui people almost killed me the first time they saw me. We are also rebels, and these Yellow Turbans will not reason with me."

Wei Xiaobao rolled his eyes and tilted his head to look back secretly.

The person behind him had a yellow scarf wrapped around his head and was staring at Wei Xiaobao with angry eyes.

Wei Xiaobao secretly tucked his braid under his yellow scarf and said with a smile, "My scarf fell off."

Whenever Wei Xiaobao was about to tell a lie, he would always laugh and talk nonsense first.

The man kicked Wei Xiaobao on the butt and said, "Hurry back to the team. No one is allowed to run around until we get to the prefectural governor's mansion."

Only then did Wei Xiaobao realize that the headscarf he picked up from the ground was exactly the yellow scarf that this group of people used to wrap their heads, except that the others wrapped it around their heads, while his wore it more like a woman.

The man was urged by the Yellow Turban leader in front of him, and had no time to argue with Wei Xiaobao any more. He urged him to return to the team and ran forward in a hurry.

Wei Xiaobao wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but was pulled into the team by someone.

Wei Xiaobao looked along the arm and saw a bearded face. He wanted to break free from his wrist, but he heard the man whisper, "Xiaobao, it's me."
