As soon as this person said something, Ma Chao and Pang De beside Ma Teng stood up in front of Ma Teng, staring at the person who spoke vigilantly, and Pang De even asked, "Who is coming?" Don't make a fool of yourself and report your name! ”

The man's face was white, his beard was also very clean, and the whole person also looked energetic, with a slight smile, he bowed to Ma Teng and said: "The grass people are just an insignificant mountain and wild person in the troubled times, and they are only here to recommend the general of the town army to recommend the family of Jingzhao Yin Sima Fang, Sima Fang has eight sons, all of them are talented, people call them Bada, among them, the son Sima Yi Sima Zhongda is the most, since the general of the town army is here, it must be to help the world and the people, if you can invite Sima Bada as a supplement, I think it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort! ”

Sima Bada? Ma Teng didn't have much impression, but Sima Fang was the former Jing Zhaoyin, and he was also a famous family, Ma Teng had heard of it, if he could invite Sima Fang, then at least it would be a big boost in the support of the Shi clan.

Ma Teng smiled, waved his hand to let Pang De and Ma Chao dodge, and then came to the man, and bowed his hand, "Thank you for your advice, although I don't know what skills that Sima Ba has at the end, but this Sima Fang is a famous family, and he is quite famous, if he can get his help, it is also Ma Teng's luck!" The tiger father has no dogs, and it is expected that Bada should also have some ability, but I don't know where the Sima family is now? ”

The man shook his head and sighed, "If the general is only going for Sima Fang, then he will be the last to die." Although Sima Fang has some talent, compared with Sima Yi, that is, the light of fireflies is better than the light of the bright moon, which is not the same! ”

Ma Teng frowned, he didn't believe it a little, this Sima Yi really had such a ability, but since the person in front of him respected Sima Yi so much, then Sima Yi might really have some skills, and it was not known. It's just that who the person in front of him is and what his identity is, Ma Teng wants to know very much at this time.

"I don't know Coats's name, I hope to tell you."

The man smiled, "The Sima family is now in Wenxian County, and if the general of the town army wants to achieve great things, he can find it himself." However, whether it can succeed or not, the grass people dare not guarantee, and hope that the general can carefully search. The grass people's names and surnames are not enough to worry about, since the general asked again, if he doesn't reply, I'm afraid he will save the general's face, and the grass people are Yingchuan Hu Zhao is also! ”

After speaking, the person who called himself Hu Zhao turned around and was about to leave, Ma Chao hurriedly shouted: "Hu Zhao stay, my father hasn't let you leave yet!" ”

It's just that Hu Zhao still didn't look back, Ma Chao was angry and was about to step forward to chase, Ma Teng stopped him, and said slowly: "It turns out that he is Hu Zhao!" ”

Ma Chao asked, "Who is Hu Zhao?" What are the skills? ”

Ma Teng smiled and said: "Hu Zhao, a native of Yingchuan, the name Kongming, is a great calligrapher and a great hermit, and he has repeatedly refused the appointments of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. So it's useless for you to keep him, but since he is willing to carefully recommend the Sima family, this Sima Yi must really have some ability. I will personally go to Wenxian County to find out if this Sima Yi is really the same as Hu Zhao said. ”

After speaking, Ma Teng personally took Ma Chao and Pang De together, and also brought a hundred fine horses, prepared many gifts, and went to Wenxian. As soon as he arrived in Wen County, Ma Teng began to inquire about where Sima Fang's house was, and after inquiring, he didn't stop at all, and went straight to Sima's house again.

At this time, Pound asked a little puzzled: "Why is the lord in such a hurry, I might as well find a place to settle down first, and then visit after preparing the name post, so as not to be too rude!" ”

Ma Teng smiled and said, "Ling Ming! If you want to know whether a person is really talented and learned, you can't look at the situation after he deliberately prepares, but see the emergency response he has when encountering unexpected situations. If I had told him in advance, his family would have been ready, and if I had deliberately lied to lie to me, I might not have been able to distinguish the truth from the false. ”

Hearing Ma Teng's words, Pang De replied with admiration: "The lord is wise! ”

After a while, Ma Teng came to the door of Sima Mansion with his soldiers, and at this time, the Sima family already knew that a large group of people were coming, so Sima Fang immediately summoned his family to come to the door to welcome Ma Teng's arrival.

At this time, Pang De shouted loudly: "My lord is the general of the Zhenjun and the Xiliang Thorn Shi Ma Teng, who came to visit Sima Fang!" ”

When Sima Fang heard this, he hurriedly took all his sons to worship together: "We are waiting to welcome the general of the town army!" ”

Ma Teng turned over and dismounted, and he didn't dare to put on a stand in front of Sima Fang, after all, he came here to accommodate the Sima family for his own use.

Ma Teng spoke in detail and found that there were only seven sons in it, he looked at Sima Fang and said: "I heard that Sima Gongyu has eight characters, collectively known as Sima Bada, why are there only seven people here?" Where is the other son? ”

Seeing Ma Teng ask like this, Sima Fang suddenly had a sad face, couldn't help but wipe his tears with his sleeves, and then sighed and said: "Don't hide it, my second son Zhongda was the most talented person, but he had bad luck, contracted wind paralysis, and couldn't live, and he was usually taken care of by Zhongda's wife Zhang. Now I can't get up, lying in his room, so I can't come to greet the general, and I hope that the general of the town army will forgive me! ”

Sima Yi contracted wind paralysis? Ma Teng muttered in his heart: It stands to reason that this Hu Zhao is a big hermit, there is no need to make such a joke with himself, introduce himself to a person who can't walk, could it be that there is fraud in this?

If it was really Sima Yi pretending, then this Sima Yi must have great ability, how could I miss a virtuous talent because of such a thing. Thinking of this, Ma Teng suddenly asked worriedly, "Zhong Da doesn't know when he got this strange disease?" ”

"Just a few months ago, hey, it really made the old man's heart hurt unbearably!"

Sima Fang replied with tears and snot, but Ma Teng still didn't believe it, and continued: "Why didn't Sima Gong take me to visit? ”

Sima Fang took Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Pang De and others to the outside of Sima Yi's room, and at this time, only a loud roar came out of the room: "Sima Yi! It's a great misfortune in my life that I married you! It's just that you say you have this strange disease, why are you still so ignorant. If you are in an emergency, you can call me or call the maid to help you, why did you solve it directly in bed? The current situation is that this bed stinks every day, how can I still sleep? I'll go to my father and tell me to leave me quickly, my mother won't wait! ”

When Ma Teng and the others heard this, they were already secretly surprised in their hearts, and then they saw that the door suddenly opened, and a woman with a beautiful face rushed out of the room, and saw Sima Fang standing outside the door with Ma Teng and others stunned. This woman is naturally Sima Yi's wife Zhang Chunhua.
