"It's a pity that Kong Ming seems to have already chosen the master. A certain has inquired many times, and Kong Ming is very favored by Uncle Liu Huang, who is incomparable in benevolence and righteousness. It's just that Uncle Liu Huang didn't know Kong Ming's ability, so he didn't come to invite. However, nowadays, my senior brother Xu Yuanzhi has joined Uncle Liu Huang, and presumably Xu Yuanzhi will recommend Kong Ming to Uncle Liu Huang soon. Uncle Liu Huang is in Xinye, Jingzhou, not far from here. And the champion Hou is far away in the land of Dongchuan. At that time, I am afraid that the champion Hou will be overtaken by Uncle Liu Huang and take the lead. ”

Li Qiang's face changed when he heard this, and he didn't feel panicked in his heart, and hurriedly begged Sima Yi.

"My father-in-law, the heart of the people, countless benevolence, out of Hedong only three years, Hedong is the world's blessed land, the people are rich and strong. After quelling the rebellion of the state and merging the state, within five years, it was recovered, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Later, Yongzhou and Liangzhou will be determined, and the chaos in the two places will be determined at this time, and the people will be able to breathe, and soon they will be able to become a paradise like Hedong and Bingzhou! I also hope that Mr. will help, if I can ask Mr. Wolong to complement my father-in-law, it is really a blessing for the people of the world! ”

When Sima Yi heard this, he didn't give a positive answer, but asked.

"How long have you been waiting here?"

"It's been a day and a night."

"Have you seen you before?"

"I asked for it several times, but I didn't see it.

"Oh? It seems that Kong Ming has no intention of seeing you and others, so he deliberately makes things difficult and makes you wait to retreat. He is a stubborn man, and his mind cannot be changed. You can wait and go back. ”

Sima Yi waved his palm, and after speaking, he walked to the sparse forest. Li Qiang couldn't make up his mind for a while, and suddenly saw Sima Yi walking towards Shulin, and hurriedly shouted again.

"Sir, can you take me into this sparse forest, Li just wants to see Mr. Wolong and show respect!"

"Hmph, it's in."

Sima Yi's face suddenly became gloomy, the corners of his mouth curled up with a sneer, and he secretly sneered. Then his face changed again, and he turned to Li Qiang and said.

"Eh, I don't want to refuse when I see that you are so sincere. Wait and come with me. ”

When Li Qiang heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked the servants to bring the convoy full of gold, silver and jewelry, and follow Sima Yi into the sparse forest. After everyone walked into the sparse forest, Sima Yi's steps were slow or fast, and Li Qiang and others chased after him very hard.

Suddenly, Sima Yi walked to a sparse forest, surrounded by messy trees, and suddenly a gust of wind hit. When Li Qiang came back to his senses, he realized that Sima Yi was missing.

"Sir!? Mr!!? ”

Li Qiang shouted, but could only hear his echo echoing all around.

Thundered~~!! Thundered~~!! Thundered~~!!

That's when things happened again. I saw hundreds of wooden figures holding blades, slowly surrounding from all directions.

"Wow~!! Monsters, these monsters again!! Run!! ”

The few servants who had seen these wooden people before were shocked, and they fled as if they were frantically grabbing the road. The wooden people they met before had not yet held a weapon, and at this time, these hundreds of wooden figures were all clinging to a sharp weapon to kill!!

Li Qiang's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly ordered the people to close together, pull out his weapons and prepare for battle. Hundreds of wooden people surrounded the city in a circle of defense lines, to Li Qiang and the others, Li Qiang was the first to attack, holding a big knife and slashing, only to hear a loud bang, the wooden man who was cut was unharmed, the heavy wooden hand holding the weapon, fell to the ground, Li Qiang hurriedly held a knife to block, who knew that this wooden man was huge, and was suddenly beaten back a few steps.

Just when Li Qiang and the others were besieged and killed by the wooden people. In Zhuangzi, there was a sudden hurricane, and Zhuge Liang, who was playing against Huang Yueying, suddenly changed his face and frowned.

"It's not good, those people have entered the Du Gate!"

After Zhuge Liang finished drinking, he seemed to have lost his interest, and he had no intention of playing chess, so he asked two scholars to come and teach him so and so. When the two scholars heard this, they hurriedly walked out of the village into the sparse forest, and when they arrived at the Dumen in the sparse forest array, most of Li Qiang's people were seriously injured, and one of Li Qiang's right legs was almost cut off. The two scholars were frightened and hurriedly turned a few tree stumps nearby.

Suddenly, the hundreds of wooden people suddenly stopped. The two scholars hurriedly rushed there, but before they arrived, Li Qiang and several servants suddenly slashed at the scholar with knives like evil wolves. The two scholars were frightened, pulled their legs and fled, walked to one place, hurriedly pressed a mechanism, and then rushed out one after another, and drove the people away. Later, Li Qiang and a group of injured people escaped from the sparse forest with the help of some lightly injured people.

Later, the two scholars came back to report, Zhuge Liang heard that Li Qiang had almost cut off one of his right legs, his eyes were slightly angry, and after a calm face, he suddenly shouted.

"Sima Zhongda, your heart is really vicious."

As soon as Zhuge Liang's voice fell, Sima Yi's figure slowly appeared in front of Zhuang. Sima Yi heard the anger in Zhuge Liang's voice, but instead smiled and said lightly.

"I'm just helping you get rid of a swarm of annoying flies, what's so poisonous? What's more, I didn't mean to harm me, it was he who wanted to follow me into this sparse forest. After that, he waited and lost, strayed into Dumen, was injured by him, and asked for himself, what does it have to do with me? ”

Zhuge Liang's eyes narrowed, and he said coldly.

"I don't want to interfere in the affairs of your Sima family and the Wen family. Sima Zhongda, this time I will be stopped, if I am implicated in this way. Then don't blame me for ignoring your brotherhood!! ”

"Haha. So! Sima Zhongda, here to make amends! I also hope that your adult will forgive me a lot of sins. ”

Sima Yi laughed, and then bowed. Zhuge Liang was expressionless, and then ordered a few scholars to take Jinchuang medicine down the mountain to find Li Qiang and make amends to him. This golden medicine is a healing elixir, invaluable, applied to the wound, generally the injury can be healed in only a few days, if it is more serious, such as Li Qiang, who almost broke a leg, it only takes a few months to heal.

After a while, Zhuge Liang suddenly asked Sima Yi.

"If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, what are you looking for me?"

Sima Yi heard the coldness in Zhuge Liang's voice, and knew that his anger had not subsided, in fact, Sima Yi could have taken Li Qiang and others into the door of death just now, once he entered the door of death, he would definitely die. But Sima Yi knew Zhuge Liang's temper well and didn't dare to do too much.

Sima Yi restrained the smile on his face and sighed slightly.

"Senior brother Xu Yuanzhi has joined Liu Xuande. Pang Shiyuan is now traveling the world, looking for his belonging. Kong Ming, you return to Longzhong, like Jiang Ziya straight needle fishing, waiting for the master of your life. Looks like it's time for me to come out as well. When the time comes, when you and I see each other again, we will be friends and foes, not what you and I want. But Kong Ming, if you really surrender to the sworn enemy of my Sima clan, I will never die with you for the rest of my life! ”

When Sima Yi said at the end, his face suddenly changed drastically, and his eyes were terrifying. Zhuge Liang's face was flat, he slightly fluttered the goose feather fan in his hand, and said indifferently.

"What will happen in the future can be decided unless you and I say it. I am dedicated to the people of the world, and if the people I assist can save the people of the world, I will do my best, and after death, I will do my best to assist him. At that time, if anyone stands in the way, even if it is a former friend, he will not hesitate to kill for the sake of righteousness! ”

"Hahahaha!! Good!!! Good!!! Good!!! I don't know the junior brother, but there is a choice of the master. Why don't you and me, sit down and talk, talk about the world, and see who in the world is worthy of you and me!? ”

Sima Yi suddenly burst into laughter, ignoring the strong momentum that burst out of Zhuge Liang's body, and as soon as the words changed, he asked.

"Okay."

Zhuge Liang flicked the goose feather fan, turned around and walked into the village, and Huang Yueying, who was in the village at the same time, quickly got up to prepare tea after listening to the words of the two.

Shaoqing, the tea is good, the two sit down, Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi sit cross-legged opposite each other. Sima Yi picked up the teacup, took a sip, praised the tea first, and then said.

"In recent years, the world has changed a lot. First of all, the northwest changed greatly, Han Sui and Ma Teng defeated Yongzhou, Yongzhou fell into the hands of the champion Hou Wenbufan, and later this person took advantage of the situation to attack, defeated the 150,000 army of Xiliang Jin Ma Chao, and pacified Liangzhou. In this northwest place, it all fell into the hands of this man.

At the same time, Cao Mengde, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and Yuan Benchu, the overlord of the northern land, won and lost the battle. Yuan Benchu was stubborn and indecisive, coupled with the competition between his sons and heirs, so that Cao Mengde had an opportunity, most of the 700,000 soldiers were destroyed, and the rest fell under Cao Mengde's command. As soon as the Yuan clan was destroyed, Cao Mengde's forces covered half of the world, and his strength was so strong that he should be the first in the world.

And in the land south of the Yangtze River, Huang Chengjie took advantage of Jiangdong to send troops to Jiaozhou and successfully booby-trapped Sun Wentai. Later, he was avenged by Sun Wentai's eldest son, Sun Bofu in Jiangdong. As soon as Huang Chengjie died, Liu Jingsheng of Jingzhou took the opportunity to recapture Jiangxia. In addition to the serious troubles of Jingzhou, it can also be regarded as a benefit. Sun Bofu sits in Jiangdong, and has the population and wealth of Yangzhou and Jiaozhou, which stores troops and expands soldiers and horses. In addition, the Yangtze River is at risk and serves as a barrier. The rise of the Sun family is already unstoppable.

At present, it seems that the era of princes competing for the Central Plains has passed. Zhang Gongqi in Hanzhong has been destroyed by Wen Bufan in recent months, Liu Jiyu in Yizhou, and Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou are all ordinary people. As far as I can see, the future may be the tripartite forces of Cao, Sun, and Wen to divide the world and form a three-tripod trend! I don't know what Kong Ming thinks? ”

When Zhuge Liang heard this, his eyes were as plain as the surface of a lake, without the slightest ripple, and he picked up the teacup and sucked lightly. Sima Yi smiled slightly, then closed his eyes and recuperated, and said nothing more.

After a long while, the two still didn't say a word, Sima Yi slowly opened his eyes, his eyes showed a little urgency, and finally spoke first.

"But before, I heard of a strange man named Yin Kui. This person is good at observing astronomy, and once said that the fate of the situation has changed greatly, the four dragons take off, and the future of the world is likely to be, the four dragons are fighting for the sky. If this is the case, Cao, Sun, and Wen have already established the foundation for seizing the world, and they will be among the four dragons, but who is the remaining dragon. I don't know if Kong Ming has a high insight? ”

As soon as Sima Yi said this, Zhuge Liang's eyes finally had a slight discoloration, and he slowly put down the teacup and gently shook the goose feather fan.

"Whether it will be three tripods or four dragons competing for the sky in the future is still too early to say. But as far as I can see, it's all up to one person to see how the situation will change. ”

When Sima Yi heard this, a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and he secretly rejoiced in his heart, and asked again.

"Oh? I don't know who the junior brother is? ”

Zhuge Liang looked at Sima Yi calmly, as if he didn't want to entangle here.

"Senior brother's wisdom is not inferior to Kong Ming. Why bother? ”

"Hahaha!! can change the overall situation of the world with the power of one person, and there is only one person in the whole world!! ”

Sima Yi suddenly laughed again, and glanced at Zhuge Liang, the two knew the answer, but neither of them said it. After a while, Sima Yi smiled, and every word was actually asking Zhuge Liang for advice.

"Senior brother, I want to serve Cao Mengde, and before leaving, I also ask my junior brother to give me a gift."

After Zhuge Liang heard this, he seemed to have guessed that Sima Yi would choose Cao Cao, and his face was not surprised, and he said slowly.

"Cao Mengde, a hero in troubled times. This person has the talent of Jingtianwei, and his ability to march and fight, strategize, and use people to govern the country is peerless. If it weren't for the current generation, Cao Mengde would have been pacified and built an immortal achievement.

This person is the lord of the world, comparable to Qin Shi Huang's 'Ying Zheng', Han Gaozu 'Liu Bang'. However, all such heroes must be cautious and suspicious in their dealings, and do not want to show others what they think.

The senior brother is very intelligent, has endless strategies, and knows things like a god. If you show your ability under this man, he will be feared by this man. Therefore, under the command of this person, it is best for the senior brother to be a little restrained and humble.

Cao Mengde has many ministers, and all of them have extraordinary abilities and are handsome in the world. If Cao Mengde asks about the plan, when the senior brother does not come out, try to avoid it, and when it is absolutely necessary, he will leave seven points. With Cao Cao's wisdom, he will make up for the remaining three points. This will show that he is better than you, and after a long time, he will naturally trust you. ”

Sima Yi's eyes burst out with brilliance when he heard this, and he remembered them one by one in his heart, and then bowed to Zhuge Liang, his face was sincere, and there was no false intent.

"Thank you for the gift! Zhongda must keep it in mind! ”

"Senior brother doesn't have to be like this. As you said, after this farewell, you and I will meet again, but I am afraid that friends and foes will be inseparable. But at this moment, you are still my Zhuge Kongming's senior brother! ”

Zhuge Liang's plain eyes were slightly agitated, and he also bowed his hand in return. After that, Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang seemed to have some thoughts in their hearts.

In the evening, Zhuge Liang set up a banquet to entertain, and the two brothers drank and had fun, only talking about the old days, and nothing more about the world.
