When Ye Xun heard this, he couldn't help but speak: "The historical facts you have been talking about don't seem to have anything to do with the exploration of the secret realm......, right?

Ye Xun was still speaking, but Black Butterfly explained: "You are wrong, any legend, or a record of a few words in a history book, is very important to the Divine Explorer. Because you don't know if someone else hid a secret in a certain record. ”

"There has always been a saying in the hands of the gods: no one has not explored the gods throughout the ages. Many people, after getting some kind of secret information, put it into a book, a picture, or even a legend. We call this information the 'Divine Code'. ”

Black Butterfly said: "Once we unlock a certain code, a certain eternal secret will surface, to be precise, the process of exploring the gods is still after cracking the code. ”

Between Black Butterfly and Ye Xun talking, my head is also constantly recalling fragments of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there must be some secrets left in them, or rather, a code hidden in ancient books is waiting for us to crack.

An Ran didn't notice that I was thinking, and kept urging: "Brother Huan, you said that I was half right, what do you mean?"

I explained: "Although Luo Guanzhong initially mythologized Zhuge Liang in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he still did not let him out of the category of mortals, and Zhuge Liang also has his own likes and dislikes, especially his likes and dislikes for people. This point is particularly clear in Wei Yan and Ma Yan. ”

I slowly analyzed: "Let's talk about Ma Jian first. Zhuge Liang can be said to be very fond of Ma Tan, and Liu Bei specially instructed Zhuge Liang before his death, 'Ma Jian should not be used'. But Zhuge Liang's love for Ma Jian still led him to give Ma Jian a chance to make a contribution and send Ma Jian to guard the street pavilion. ”

An Ran sighed: "Zhuge is only cautious in his life. Sending horses to guard the street pavilion may be the only thing that Zhuge Liang has not been careful in his life. ”

"Nope. I shook my head and said, "Zhuge Liang didn't lose his caution because he loved Ma Yan. He sent the general Wang Ping to follow Ma Yan, just in case. Even so, he was still not at ease, and arranged for the four-way army, including Wei Yan, to pick up Ma Yan. It's a pity that Ma Tan's opponent is Sima Yi, who even Zhuge Liang is afraid of three points, and Ma Tan is stubborn and self-serving, so he can only talk on paper, so he lost the street pavilion. ”

I continued: "The description of Ma Jian in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" makes me very strange. According to common sense, Liu Bei should have a lot of important things to arrange when he was dying, why did he have to mention that he was just a member of the army at that time? Could it be that Liu Bei also has the ability to predict the future?"

An Ran blinked his eyes twice: "Could it be that it is just an artistic technique of Mr. Luo Guanzhong, which laid the groundwork for Zhuge Liang's later loss of the street pavilion?"

"If it weren't for this secret, I'd feel the same way. I shook my head in dismay, "But, with this vault, I don't think so." Luo Guanzhong is reminding future generations to pay attention to Wei Yan from Zhuge Liang's preferences. ”

"If Zhuge Liang's love for Ma Yan comes from his talent, then Zhuge Liang's dislike for Wei Yan seems to be unfounded. ”

According to the content of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang wanted to kill Wei Yan as soon as they met, because he betrayed Changsha Taishou and switched to Liu Bei. However, this was not a big deal during the Three Kingdoms period, and the flow of talents and the transfer of monarchs in the Three Kingdoms happened from time to time. ”

Besides, Wei Yan did not receive the great favor of the lord like Lu Bu, and even had the name of father and son, and his defection to Liu Bei did not violate the taboo of feudal warlords. Otherwise, with Liu Bei's ambition, how could he easily accept Wei Yan? If Wei Yan really had a backbone, the person who wanted to kill him would not be Zhuge Liang, but Liu Bei. ”

After listening to this, An Ran nodded in some realization: "According to what you say, it's really like this." ”

I said again: "Zhuge Liang sent troops from Hanzhong to recruit Cao Wei four times, and each time he used Wei Yan as the vanguard, which shows that Zhuge Liang still recognizes Wei Yan's ability very much. However, Zhuge Liang refused to let Wei Yan lead the troops alone. ”

"Every time Wei Yan accompanied the army on the Northern Expedition, he asked Zhuge Liang to give him the command of 10,000 soldiers, and went all the way to tackle the key problems, and finally joined Zhuge Liang in Tongguan, just like the example of the former Han general Han Xin, but Zhuge Liang has not allowed it, so Wei Yan often said that Zhuge Liang was timid and hated that his talents could not be fully used. ”

According to the record of "Wei Luo" in the supplement to the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", during Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition, Wei Yan had made a suggestion at the military meeting, because the Chang'an guard general Xiahou Nan was timid and had no plan, so he was willing to invite 5,000 elite soldiers to take Chang'an directly from the Meridian Valley, and thought that Xiahou Nan would definitely abandon the city and flee, and Zhuge Liang thought that this plan was in danger and should not be used. ”

An Ran asked rhetorically: "Did Zhuge Liang see that Wei Yan had a backbone, so he always disagreed with him leading troops alone?"

I said in a deep voice: "If you look at it from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it is indeed the case, but if you look back at "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it is not so. "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" records that after Yang Yi framed Wei Yan for rebellion, Wei Yan did not resist, but only retreated without fighting. At that time, there was no one in Shu Han who was Wei Yan's opponent, if he really had the intention of rebellion, why didn't he divide Hanzhong?"

"Wei Yan has been guarding Hanzhong for many years, and he knows Hanzhong well, as long as Wei Yan occupies Hanzhong, he can at least sell it at a price, which is better than losing his head in Shu Han. Even Yang Yi can see this, can't Zhuge Liang see it?"

I said in a deep voice: "You said that Wei Yan's rebellion is not valid in a sense. ”

I continued: "However, whether it is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" or "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there is one thing in common, that is, Wei Yan died under Zhuge Liang's scheme. ”

"In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang arranged for Ma Dai to behead Wei Yan, so naturally there is no need to say much. ”

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" also mentions a very interesting thing, that is, Wei Yan and Zhuge Liang's envoy Yang Yi did not agree. Wei Yan and Yang Yi had a deep contradiction, and Wei Yan even drew a knife against Yang Yi several times. In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang reconciled the two of them many times because he cherished Yang Yi's talent, and Fei Yi, who was Sima at the time, also mediated many times, so that the two could be at peace for a while. ”

When I said this, the conversation changed and said: "If Yang Yi is really a great talent, or if the commander of the Shu army has to make Yang Yi, and Zhuge Liang has added importance to Yang Yi, this arrangement is understandable." But Yang Yi is a person who doesn't know how to converge and doesn't know the height of the sky, why does Zhuge Liang have to keep him?"

I was afraid that An Ran wouldn't understand, so I continued to explain: "If you take a closer look at Yang Yi's life, you can also get a general idea of him. After Yang Yi was promoted to Shangshu by Liu Bei, because of the discord with Shangshu Ling Liu Ba, he was transferred to Hongnong Taishou, and later became Zhuge Liang's army. Zhuge Liang decided that Jiang Wan would succeed him, Yang Yi only worshiped the Chinese military division, and Yang Yi was cut down and exiled to Hanjia County because of many complaints. But Yang Yi still did not introspect, and slandered again, with fierce rhetoric, and finally went to prison and committed suicide. ”

I squinted my eyes and said, "Zhuge Liang deliberately left him in Hanzhong because he knew Yang Yi too well, in order to make Yang Yi and Wei Yan turn against each other so that Wei Yan could be eliminated." ”

"At that time, there were not no people who could save Wei Yan, at least Jiang Wei, who was a protector, had this ability. However, Zhuge Liang succeeded to his life in Wuzhang Yuan, but it all failed because Wei Yan extinguished the seven-star lamp, and Jiang Wei naturally would not make a move. ”

Perhaps, Zhuge Liang had long known that the technique of renewing his life would not succeed, and deliberately set a trap for Wei Yan, so that Jiang Wei would not be saved when he died. ”

I said in a deep voice: "From this point of view, Zhuge Liang's removal of Wei Yan must have an element of keeping a secret. Because, after Zhuge Liang's death, the person who may finally open the secret realm to get the inheritance of the organ is none other than Wei Yan. ”

An Ran muttered to himself: "This is unlikely, isn't it?

I shook my head and said, "None of us are parties, and no one knows what Zhuge Wuhou is thinking about. Perhaps, in addition to the secret art of the mechanism, there are other secrets that cannot be known. ”

An Ran said: "You said so much, it has nothing to do with the secret art of the mechanism?"

I looked at An Ran and said, "It's related." The next place to go is a person who suddenly disappeared into the history of the Three Kingdoms, Ma Dai. ”

"Whether it is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" or "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Ma Dai disappeared after killing Wei Yan, and there is no record of his whereabouts or death. How could a general in Shuzhong disappear for no reason? If Ma Dai was still there at that time, he would not have gotten to the point of 'there is no general in Shuzhong, and Liao has become a pioneer.'" ”

An Ran's eyes lit up: "You mean, Ma Dai accepted Zhuge Liang's secret order and went to build the second secret realm?"

An Ran knocked his hand and said, "Yes, Ma Dai's tomb has been discovered." I have seen the information of the Detective Hand, and the site of Ma Dai's tomb is at the intersection of Juntun Town and Mimu Town in Xindu County, Sichuan. Should we go to the Tomb of Mardai now?"

As soon as I was about to speak, Black Butterfly spoke, "I don't think there will be any clues to the Ma Dai Tomb. ”

"As you say, Ma Dai's sudden disappearance is a mystery. There is a legend that Ma Dai felt cold because Wei Yan was killed, and he never went into hiding. There are even legends that Ma Dai was arranged by Jiang Wei to kill Wei Yan because Jiang Wei wanted to regain Wei Yan's military power, and then was secretly killed by Jiang Wei, and Yang Yi was just the person who Jiang Wei deliberately threw out the blame. ”

"Even if Zhuge Liang has any secrets, he will not hide them in Ma Dai's tomb. When we go to Ma Dai's tomb, I am afraid it will be difficult to find any clues. I think it's safer to continue to look for Zhuge Liang's secret treasure according to our original thinking. ”

I pondered for a moment before saying: "Zhuge Wuhou's calculations have always been unpredictable, and there is no point in us guessing out of thin air, so it is better to go to Ma Dai's tomb first and then make a decision." ”
