After Ma Hong finished speaking, he took out a large wooden box from under the stone table, Ma Hong opened the lid of the large wooden box, and there were seven small wooden boxes in the large wooden box. Ma Hong opened the lids of the seven small wooden boxes one by one, and the small wooden boxes contained seven different herbs.

"These seven herbs, among them are antidotes, of course you can let me choose the antidote for you, you can also choose the antidote yourself, but only if you choose the antidote yourself, you can pass my level."

Ma Hongxiao pointed to the herbs in the wooden box, looked at Zhuge Liang, and then looked at Xu Shu and Yang Yi who walked into the wooden pavilion.

Zhuge Liang pondered for a while and asked, "What happens if you choose the wrong one?" ”

Ma Hong smiled and said: "If you choose the wrong one, maybe you will get the second poison, and maybe you can fight poison with poison." ”

Zhuge Liang nodded, selected two herbs from the wooden box, put them in the teapot, then poured hot water, covered the lid, and soaked the herbs.

"Why did you choose two herbs, white front and daylily?"

Ma Hong asked.

Zhuge Liang said with a calm face: "Your medicine box contains red arrows, white front, astragalus, daylilies, artemisia, blue lakes, and comfrey. If my guess is correct, you are in order of the seven colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple, but the second is an orange or orange herb, but you put it white, and the fourth is a herb with a green word, but you put daylilies. So I'm guessing that this white front and daylily are the antidote. ”

Ma Hong was not only surprised, but secretly said in his heart: Zhuge Liang is so knowledgeable, and he also recognizes medicinal herbs.

After half a pillar of incense, Zhuge Liang poured a bowl of soaked Chinese medicine, frowned and drank it. The medicine is very bitter, and the bitter Zhuge Liang can't close his mouth anymore.

Ma Hong handed Zhuge Liang a bowl of tea at this time and said with a smile: "Come to Brother Zhuge and drink tea to moisten your mouth." ”

Zhuge Liang didn't take the tea bowl, but stuck out his tongue and said: "I don't drink it, who knows if you put poison in this bowl of tea." ”

Ma Hong smiled slightly, didn't say anything, just looked at Zhuge Liang silently.

Zhuge Liang stretched out his tongue until the bitterness in his mouth was all gone, and then he asked Ma Hong, "Why do you keep staring at me?" Do you think I look better than you? ”

Ma Hong couldn't help but laugh: "Actually, I was fooling you just now, there is no poison in the tea at all." ”

Zhuge Liang was not only stunned, he looked at Ma Hong's smiling face, and his hand couldn't help but want to touch the bamboo pole.

At this time, Xu Shu said: "Senior Brother Ma, daylilies are poisonous, do you just let Brother Zhuge drink it?" ”

Zhuge Liang snorted, shook his head and said: "It's just a small amount of poison, poison doesn't kill people, it just so happens that I can't urinate, I can get through." It has rained a lot just now, so drinking some white before you can prevent the wind chill. ”

Ma Hong smiled slightly and said, "Brother Zhuge , you can go." ”

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment and said, "Are you letting me out of the village?" Or do you want me to go to apprenticeship? ”

Ma Hong smiled and said, "Brother Zhuge is a genius, of course, he is going to apprentice. ”

"Don't you compare yourself to me? I heard that you are good at poetry and lyrics, why don't we try it out? ”

Zhuge Liang continued to ask.

Is it a poetry competition? Ma Hong secretly said in his heart: A teacher is a real name in the world, who can be compared to the middle of the world for a thousand years, although Lu You is talking about your loyalty, but his writing is also very strong, I will not be stupid and compare with you.

"Hehe, Brother Zhuge smiled, Hong's language is simple, and it is difficult to wait for the elegant hall." Ma Hong excused himself.

"Brother Ma, don't shirk, didn't you write "Peach Blossom Fu"? Ryo also read it, and I think it's pretty good. In the first year of Jian'an, the red dragon moved, and it was set to be ...... in Xudu"

Ma Hong saw Zhuge Liang reading the "Peach Blossom Fu" he wrote last year, and quickly interrupted Zhuge Liang and said: "Brother Zhuge , since you have passed the test, hurry up and go to meet the teacher!" It's not early now, if Brother Zhuge misses the apprenticeship time, the teacher will be unhappy. ”

Zhuge Liang saw that Ma Hong didn't compare with himself no matter what, so he could only sigh and said: "Okay, then we have time in the future, and Brother Ma shouldn't refuse me when the time comes!" ”

Ma Hong smiled and said, "When the time comes, Brother Zhuge should call me Senior Brother Ma." ”

Zhuge Liang looked at this Ma Hong, who was a few years younger than him, and said secretly in his heart: This person is so interesting.

Then Xu Shu led Zhuge Liang to meet Mr. Shuijing. Yang Yi saw that Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang had already gone away, and asked Ma Hong softly: "Ma Laosan, why don't you fight with Zhuge Liang?" ”

Ma Hong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If you don't fight, you won't lose." ”

Yang Yi smiled bitterly: "This Zhuge Liang is so powerful, Senior Brother Xu Shu was defeated so badly, it seems that he is not in a very good mood."

Ma Hong shook his head and said, "Zhuge Liang is a genius, and it is not unjust to lose to him." Besides, Senior Brother Xu Shu is broad-minded, and he is older than us, so he will definitely not blame Zhuge Liang.

Yang Yi sighed and said, "I always feel that the gap with you is getting bigger and bigger." ”

Ma Hong smiled slightly, patted Yang Yi's shoulder and said, "You and I need to work hard to succeed." ”

Yang Yi nodded vigorously.

Outside the Water Mirror Villa, Pang Tong sat on the wooden bridge, letting the rain hit his face, he sat motionless, his eyes closed. This time he took the initiative to ask to test Zhuge Liang, but he didn't expect Zhuge Liang to be so powerful, although he is sitting still like a mountain now, he has already set off a thousand feet of waves in his heart. Except for Ma Hong, who can be seen by him, he doesn't bother to pay attention to the rest of his peers. But since he and Ma Hong came to Shuijing Villa, he found that everything was gradually changing. The teacher, Mr. Shui Jing, is so unfathomable, Xu Shu and Liu Ye are both civil and military, and their formation attainments are better than their own, and now there is a clever Zhuge Liang. This small mountain villa is getting more and more interesting, and Pang Tong doesn't dare to slack off, he can't wait to grow up now.

Xu Shu led the way in front and was speechless all the way. Zhuge Liang followed behind Xu Shu, and said secretly in his heart: Fortunately, I have learned medical skills with Mr. Zhang Ji for a month and recognize some herbs, otherwise I would have suffered a big loss today, this Water Mirror Villa is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. [Zhang Ji, the word Zhongjing. When Zhuge Xuan was seriously ill, he lived in Nanyang, and Zhang Zhongjing took care of Zhuge Xuan as a doctor. 】

Xiangyang City, Liu Biao's house.

Liu Qi was sitting with his waist straight.

Liu Biao stroked his beard and said slowly: "Qi'er, Zhuge Xuan's nephews have come to Xiangyang, do you know?" ”

Liu Qi nodded and said, "The child knows." ”

Liu Biao continued: "Zhuge Xuan is my friend and my subordinate, his death in Nanyang is somewhat related to me, and I have the responsibility to help his family." ”

"Father, don't blame yourself too much, my father once asked the famous doctor Zhang Ji to treat Zhuge Xuan, and my father treated him well." Liu Qi said.

Liu Biao sighed and said: "Before Zhuge Xuan died, he wrote to me and asked me to take care of his family, but Zhuge Liang's kid was unwilling to accept my favor, so I could only secretly ask Pang Degong to introduce him to Shuijing Villa for apprenticeship. I don't know if Sima Wei's old guy can take him as an apprentice? ”

Liu Qi said with a smile: "Father, you are as wise as a needle, the person you fancy is naturally a talent, I believe that Mr. Shui Jing will definitely take him as an apprentice." ”

Liu Biao stroked his beard and said: "Qi'er, Zhuge Liang's second sister has also reached the age of marriage, I remember that Pang Degong has a son who has not yet married a wife." You go and meet Pang Degong, find out his tone, if Pang Degong is interested, I will visit him personally. ”

Liu Qi said: "My father has done too much for the Zhuge family. ”

Liu Biao smiled: "You are still young, you don't understand many things, I do this for the love of old friends, and the other is for our Liu family, Zhuge Liang will be grateful to me for doing this, and in the future, whenever our Liu family is in trouble, he will also help." ”

"A mere white clothes, my father actually said that he could help my Liu family, is my father thinking too highly of him." Although Liu Qi thought so in his heart, he still nodded respectfully and said, "The father is wise, and the child has learned." ”
