Chapter 20: Zhuge Liang

When Liu Tong was thinking nonsense, the red carp came in with a basin of toiletry.

"Childe, why do you drink so much wine?" The red carp complained while helping Liu Tong get dressed.

"Hey, what's that?" Liu Tong pointed to the three knives on the table next to him and asked.

"You fell out of your arms when you came back to sleep last night."

"Oh", Liu Tong picked up a knife and looked at it carefully, this knife is about ten centimeters long and about two centimeters wide, is it a flying knife? Liu Tong recalled carefully, it seemed to be given to him by Pu Yuan at the banquet, saying that it was made of newly produced steel.

Liu Tong flung it, but the flying knife went out, and it did not fly to the goalpost, but was inserted in the door, and the knife was very sharp, an inch into the wood.

After dinner, Liu Tong practiced martial arts for a while, and played with flying knives for a while, feeling that this thing was not suitable for him, not to mention that he didn't look down on hidden arrows to hurt people at all, so he lacked interest and took the flying knife back to the house.

Liu Tong suddenly remembered, why didn't Cao Hong look for himself recently? Why don't you call yourself to the barracks yet? Cao Ang can't see anyone, it's the Cao Xian sisters, and they don't come to listen to stories these days, so they wonder in their hearts.

After a few more days, Liu Tong was really bored, and then he thought about it, he really didn't have any friends.

Although I have seen Pu Yuan a few times recently, but the age difference is large, but they are not speculative, Dawu and they are mostly rude men, think about it carefully, only Cao Ang can be regarded as a friend. However, the longer he stayed, the more he felt that he had a disparity in status with him, Liu Tong didn't care much about this, but he was afraid that others would care, and he didn't really treat Cao Ang as a brother.

But these days are indeed a bit boring, so I decided to go to Cao Ang to play. Because Liu Tong had already lived in General Zuo's Mansion, the porter took him in directly to find Cao Ang.

When passing through the garden, Liu Tong saw Xiao Caojie playing with a few children from a distance, so he stopped to say hello.

Xiao Cao Jie saw that it was Liu Tong, ran over innocently, and mysteriously pulled Liu Tong to the side, and the porter saw Cao Jie taking Liu Tong and left.

"Brother Luo, are you Liu Tong?"

When Liu Tong heard this, he sighed in his heart, I can't talk to the red carp, who else in this world will know me? But when I thought about it, I called myself Luo Tong at the beginning to deal with Chen Hu casually, and now I have defected to Cao Cao, and it is okay to show my real name.

"yes, you need to keep it a secret." Liu Tong amused Xiao Cao Jie and said.

"Mm-hmm", Cao Jie nodded solemnly as if he had gained great trust, "Brother Luo, are you really from the north?" ”

Well, I was a southerner in my previous life, and I appeared in Xinye in this life, what do you mean by coming from the north? Liu Tong shook his head slightly, and looked at Cao Jie's flickering eyes with questioning eyes.

"Brother Luo, I don't believe you are a spy from the north!" The little face seemed to be uneven for Liu Tong, and it turned slightly red.

What is this, the child is headless and brainless, Liu Tong touched Xiao Caojie's head, "I'm going to find your eldest brother." ”

"The eldest brother went out of the city to greet my father, saying that an important guest had come with him."

Cao Cao is back! Liu Tong was a little excited, after all, he hadn't seen him for so long, he lived in his house before, he went to Xiangyang, and after he came back, he moved out again. After Cao Cao returns, maybe he will be able to really take office.

"When are you coming home?"

"Come to the eldest brother in the afternoon, and the eldest brother will be back at that time!" Cao Jie raised his head and looked at Liu Tong.

Liu Tong squatted down, "Xiao Caojie, can you go and play with Brother Luo to find Sister Red Carp?" Brother Luo will tell you the story of Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie. ”

"Yes, yes." Cao Jie's voice became lower and lower, "The eldest sister won't let me go to you, saying that I will wait for my father to come back and figure it out?" ”

"Why? Figure out what? ”

Cao Jie shook his head in confusion.

Liu Tong felt bored, and he didn't know why, so he patted Cao Jie's little head and got up to leave.

After Liu Tong returned home, he thought about Cao Jie's words, and he couldn't figure it out, Cao Hong and Cao Ang didn't look for themselves recently, thinking about it, there must be some reason. The more Liu Tong thought about it, the more panicked he became, and he was determined to find Cao Ang to find out.

In the afternoon, when the sun was in the west, Liu Tong had just arrived at General Zuo's mansion, and he saw Cao Ang with a group of people moving things to the carriage. ”

You are the wicked person who sues first, can you enter the general's mansion casually, didn't you always look for me before?

"Brother Cao, what are you going to do?"

"Oh, Mr. Kong Ming is here, I'll send some more things to Youxian Pavilion."

When Liu Tong heard this, he rubbed his palms and was very happy.

"Really? General Zuo came out of the horse, and his wish came true! ”

"My father also looked at the thatched house three times before he invited Mr. Wolong out of the mountain!"

Liu Tong thought to himself, although history has changed, the emergence of Zhuge God is still an old bridge.

"What about Mr. Pang Tong?" Liu Tong asked eagerly.

"Mr. Pang Tong has already asked his father to go to Yizhou."

When Liu Tong heard this, Cao Cao was amazing, and he recovered Wolong and Phoenix Chicks at once. Pang Tong went to Yizhou, thinking that Zhang Song of Yizhou came some time ago, and Lu Qian went to Yizhou with Zhang Song, and it is estimated that Zhuge Liang has presented Cao Cao with the strategy of taking Yizhou first and then dividing the world.

Lu Qian's previous trip to Yizhou was probably an alliance or something, but this time Pang Tong went to it, it is estimated that he was planning to seize Yizhou!

Liu Tong was happy for Cao Cao in his heart, and he was happy for himself. With the arrival of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, I can't run away from the credit of recommending talents!

"It's okay left and right, I'll go to the leisure hall with Brother Cao."

Cao Ang paused, and it was not easy to refuse, so he nodded in agreement.

After the things were moved, Cao Ang and Liu Tong rode horses and led a group of people to the leisure hall. After being silent for a while, Cao Ang opened his mouth and asked: "Brother Luo, the salt-making and iron-smelting technologies are all secrets that are not passed down in the north, is Brother Luo really not from the north?" ”

Liu Tong saw that Cao Ang's speech was not as hearty as before, how could he doubt his origin, could it be that the lies he made up about his teacher could not stand scrutiny? Hey, it seems that you still can't lie, how many lies does it take for a lie to be round? Maybe it will never be round.

"Brother Cao, it's true that the younger brother has never been to the north."

Seeing Liu Tong's answer, Cao Ang didn't ask anymore, and the two didn't say anything all the way, and arrived at the leisure hall.

Cao Ang and Liu Tong came to Zhuge Liang's study, and saw a handsome scholar in his twenties with a slightly hearty face, and put down the book in his hand to greet him.

Liu Tong thought to himself, this person has a wise face and a fluttering demeanor, it must be Zhuge Liang, why did he drink before it was dark, could it be that he drank with Cao Cao just now? After all, on the first day of Xinye, there must be a catch-up wine.

Zhuge Liang recognized Cao Ang, and was polite, and saw that a well-dressed young man came in, extremely noble, thinking that it was Cao Ang's younger brother.

"Boy Luo Tong, I've seen Mr. Wolong!" Liu Tong saw the great god in his heart, and he was inevitably a little excited.

Zhuge Liang smiled: "The child's face is unspeakably expensive, I don't know which adult Lin'er is?" ”

"It's just a lonely grass people, how dare you call it noble." Liu Tong is not modest. But when he reported Luo Tong's name, Zhuge Liang obviously hadn't heard it, and he was a little disappointed in his heart, it seemed that no one had mentioned to him that he recommended him to Cao Cao.

As soon as he sat down, Cao Ang was called away by the steward of Youxian Hall.

"Brother Luo, you accompany Mr., I'll come over later." Cao Ang went out and left a sentence.

Liu Tong was a little restrained, and he didn't know what to talk to Zhuge Liang, so he picked up the book on the desk and read it absentmindedly.

"Sir, then Liu Kuan is a Han clan, and there are many people in the north, why doesn't Mr. go to the north?"

Facing the great god, Liu Tong was a little nervous, but he still couldn't let go of his curiosity about Liu Kuan, and wanted to know something through this wise man, so he came to such a sentence, and he felt a little presumptuous as soon as he blurted out.

These days, he also knows some major events in the world, and now the princes have the strongest strength since Liu Kuan eliminated Yuan Shao, and there are also Liu Biao in Jingzhou, Liu Zhang in Yizhou, Sun Ce in Jiangdong, Ma Teng in Liangzhou, etc., as for Cao Cao, his strength is weak, and he just borrows Xinye.

After Zhuge Liang saw Liu Tong asking, he looked down at the book, not knowing its intention.

"The Northern Military Aircraft Department is full of talents, and I am a dispensable person in terms of generals, Cao Gong is a talented person in the world, and he is also the master of the world!"

Liu Tong saw that Zhuge Liang's face was not good, and listening to what he said just now, a person like Zhuge Liang would not go to the north to work with many great talents in the military aircraft department, what he wanted was to be independent and show his ambitions.

Liu Tong saw Zhuge Liang pick up the book again, and knew that he had no intention of keeping guests, so he saluted him and said goodbye and went out of the room.

Liu Tong was in a very bad mood, chatting with Cao Ang was not happy, and the first time he saw Zhuge Liang, he was not happy, so he explained to a subordinate and went back by himself.
