"Little Er, bring all the delicious food and drink, and you have to go on the road after eating." After Hu Cheng and his subordinates arranged the items they carried, they sat down one after another. Dozens of people crowded around a few tables, and the inn was crowded at once. There were only four people at the table where Hu Cheng sat down, which was relatively loose. After a while, the dishes came up one after another, and they ate in a row.

You have to act, or you'll be left after eating. Get acquainted first, even if you don't accept it, it's good to make a friend. But the people were obviously in a hurry and were in a hurry. If you take the liberty of going up and talking to you, you are likely to be offended. What to do? Liu Yuan pondered.

Noticing the expressions of Hu Cheng and his group, Liu Yuan suddenly had an idea and had an idea. He got up and walked to the Hucheng table and said, "My brother Guan Tai has an extraordinary bearing, and he will definitely have some good achievements in the future." But I just pinched my fingers, and I'm afraid that my brother's trip to Taiwan will not be peaceful, and I am afraid that there will be a disaster of blood and light. ”

Hu Cheng frowned, looking slightly impatient. He glanced up at Liu Yuan and said, "I look at Mr. Guan's dignified appearance, not like a swaggering and deceitful person, why do you say this?" ”

Liu Yuan had already prepared for Hu Cheng's words, and said confidently: "Brother Tai's words are bad, Zhou Yibo is profound, and the way of divination has been passed down for a long time. But today is a difficult time, and it takes noble people to get through it with each other. That's why I speak up. ”

Hu Cheng was cautious by nature, although he didn't believe Liu Yuan too much, but he still wanted to hear what he wanted to say, so he said, "Where did my blood light disaster come from?" Is Brother Taiwan alarmist? "That's the difference between modern and ancient. If you deceive modern people in the same way, you will ignore you, because there are too many liars. But the ancients were different, and although they had doubts, they generally listened to what you said next.

Liu Yuan said: "I pinched my fingers just now, the road ahead is not calm, and robbers are rampant. Although the elder brother and your family are both extraordinary, they can't get rid of the robbers because of the drag of the items they carry. In the end, they either gave up their belongings and ran away, or they suffered heavy casualties in order to protect the goods. ”

"Does Brother Tai know which way we're going? Can you calculate that we are going to be in trouble? Hu Cheng asked rhetorically.

"I've figured it out, you're going west." Liu Yuan said with certainty, "This is the only way to go west, and it is not a matter of walking for an extra day or two if you want to detour." ”

How did Liu Yuan determine that Hu Chengxing was going west? For he found that several of his attendants looked to the west from time to time while eating. Liu Yuan guessed that they were carrying so many things, they should be transporting goods home. There is a way to return to the heart like an arrow. Liu Yuan observed Hu Cheng carefully as he spoke, and found that the surprise in Hu Cheng's eyes was getting stronger and stronger, and he knew that he had guessed right.

Hu Cheng looked at Liu Yuan deeply, paused and said, "After all, Mr. is a one-sided statement, how can I easily believe it?" ”

Liu Yuan smiled confidently: "I'm here to help you." You believe that it is your own blessing, and if you do not believe, you will suffer disaster. What does it have to do with me? That's all, believe it or not. After speaking, Liu Yuan returned to his seat and continued to drink as if nothing had happened.

After successfully attracting Hu Cheng's attention, Liu Yuan played a trick to capture and indulge. My big flickering technique is still not bad, Liu Yuan is a little narcissistic.

Hu Cheng thought about Liu Yuan's words and deeds, and felt that there were no loopholes. His party carried a large amount of materials in exchange for silver, and if they were robbed, the loss would be not small. So he instructed his subordinates: "Li Da, you are agile and nimble. You eat, and look forward to see if you can find any clues to the robbers. Whether you find the problem or not, you will be back in two hours. Li Da agreed and ate quickly.

Hu Cheng got up, walked to Liu Yuan's table, bowed slightly and said, "Mr. was abrupt before, Mr. Haihan." My name is Hu Cheng, and I am a person from Hujiazhuang hundreds of miles away. I don't know the name of the gentleman? ”

"My surname is Liu Mingyuan, the word Guoqiang, and I am now a guest in Cai Yong's Cai Yilang Mansion." Liu Yuandao. Because the people of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms all had characters, Liu Yuan himself chose a word for himself, called "Guoqiang", which was Liu Yuan's usual name in the seventies and eighties of the world. Liu Yuan directly brought out Cai Yong's identity as a guest. Don't underestimate this identity, you must know that being a guest in the university scholar's mansion is not something that ordinary people can do, and you must have the ability to be recognized by the master. Hu Cheng is still a rural person after all, and he faces Cai Yong's doorman like a modern countryman faces a doctor.

"Mr. Liu turned out to be a doorman in the university scholar's mansion, and he was disrespectful and disrespectful. I wonder if Mr. Liu can guide us through this dilemma? Although I am not sure if what Liu Yuan said is true, I would rather believe it. Moreover, Cai Yongmenke's identity also made Hu Cheng have to pay a certain amount of attention. Hu Cheng decided to stabilize Liu Yuan first, and then decide how to deal with it when Li Dada found out the results.

"There are two ways to do it. One is a detour, which will take hundreds of miles more. The second is to find a way to force it through. It is impossible to smuggle in, it is not possible to go fast with these carts of goods, and the target is big, the spies of the bandits will definitely find out, and they will not let go of so many supplies. Liu Yuandao.

"Can you figure out how many bandits there are?"

"Let me figure it out." Liu Yuan closed his eyes and pretended.

"There were hundreds of robbers, mostly rabble. But there are three leaders who have good martial arts and are not under the brother's platform. After finishing the appearance, Liu Yuan said.

When Hu Cheng heard this, his brows furrowed, and he said, "A detour is the last choice, and you have to walk for a few more days." We need to go to Danyang for a long time to buy supplies, is it difficult to make a detour every time? But the thieves are not small, even if they transfer manpower from the village and fight hard, they will not have much advantage, and they will lose a lot of people. If you report to the official, the government may not be able to send troops to encircle and suppress it. Please Mr. Liu teach me how to do it. ”

"Let's talk about it when your subordinates come back." Liu Yuan had a look of confidence in his chest. Since you pretend to be a god, you have to show that you can do anything. After all, his strategy is 76, which is much higher than Hu Cheng and several bandit leaders.

Now that the robbers have geographical advantages, they are in the open and are a rabble, and it is no problem for Liu Yuan to come up with a plan to defeat them.

When the subordinate named Li Da came back from investigation, Hu Cheng would really recognize the reality and face himself. Wait until that time to tell the plan again, which can have a better effect. Liu Yuan had already made up his mind.

"Brother Hu will wait here first, I'll go back to the room first? You can come to me if you have something. Liu Yuan directly said goodbye and left. Being too attentive will arouse suspicion, and there is no way to pass, so Hu Cheng still has to obediently ask himself for advice?

As expected, in the evening of the same day, Hu Cheng came to visit, and his words were very respectful.

"Brother Hu came to me at this time, did your subordinates find out the results?" Liu Yuan asked knowingly.

"It was indeed discovered, a suspected copycat was found, and the bodies of several people were found in the roadside weeds. Within a few days of his death, he was killed by a sword. I did have a lot of neglect to Mr. Liu before, please don't mind, and at the same time, please give me some advice. If you need it, please make it clear that Hu will do his best to help. Hu Cheng was very honest at this time.

"I just know a little about divination and face-to-face skills, and I see that Brother Hu has an extraordinary future, so I just give a little guidance. Helping others is also a matter of accumulating virtue, and I will do my best to help if I can. My retinue of Brother Hu is all outstanding, presumably Zhuang Zhong still retains considerable strength, right? Liu Yuan knew that Hu Sanniang had not yet come out, and it was impossible for Hu Cheng to take away all the forces of Yizhuang, and he would definitely leave a large part of the forces led by Hu Sanniang.

"There is a lot of force at home, but if you fight hard with the robbers, no matter what the result is, even if you win, you will lose a lot." Hu Cheng replied.

"I just calculated a hexagram in the room, and the hexagram shows that the third sister in Brother Hu's family is excellent in martial arts. Brother Hu can send an entourage home overnight to report the news, please Ling Mei out of the horse, only take twenty elite followers, ride a fast horse to meet us, and then act according to my strategy, you can destroy the robbers, and even end the cottage in one fell swoop. And there will not be many casualties on our side. Liu Yuan went straight to the point.

After listening to Liu Yuan's words, Hu Cheng's face was full of disbelief. even counted his sister's martial arts outstanding. You must know that although my sister is strong in force, she has never done anything big, and people within a radius of dozens of miles have heard of it. And Liu Yuan is obviously not from the neighborhood.

At this time, Hu Cheng admired Liu Yuan very much, and thought that he was worthy of being a disciple of Cai Yong's scholar, and he was really extraordinary.

"Okay, I'll send someone to inform Sanniang. Not sure what to do next? Please sir teach me. "Hu Chengdao.

Liu Yuan explained a few words to Hu Cheng softly, and after listening to it, Hu Cheng showed a look of surprise on his face, and arranged it according to his words.
