"Our Pangjiazhuang is in the south of Xinye, in the control area of Liu Biao, that Diao Xiong dared to cross Xinye to come, this courage is really ......"

Pang Degong was amazed, and when he said this, he didn't know what words to use to evaluate Diao Xiong's boldness.

Pang Tong's eyes also changed for no reason, and there was a clear flash of admiration, but in an instant, his face returned to that stiff state.

He flicked his hand and said indifferently: "I'm curious about what kind of character this legendary mink male will be, this time just let me have a glimpse of the style, come, invite him to the village quickly." ”

Pang Tong stood in front of the hall to greet him, but Pang Degong was inconvenient to come forward and retreated to the back hall for a while.

After a while, the door of the village was opened, and Mink Xiong was invited in, and he entered Pangjiazhuang with his head held high.

Along the way, the maids and servants of the Pang family retreated one after another, either dodging in a panic, or standing with their heads down, not daring to face it.

Obviously, they were afraid of the mink.

"It's better to be feared than to be despised by others."

Glancing left and right, those who were afraid, Mink Ambition secretly had a pleasant sense of accomplishment in his heart.

After a few turns, the main hall is right in front of you.

At the top of the steps, a short, ugly-looking young man of his age was already standing in front of the steps.

That person must be the famous phoenix pangtong.

"This Pang Tong, really short and frustrated, if he wasn't born in a famous family, he was really a standard short and poor frustration, no wonder he was depressed for so many years, and even Liu Bei almost refused to use him......"

Diao Xiong secretly sighed, and remembered Pang Tong's life experience.

He remembered that Pang Tong in history was not appreciated by Liu Biao because of his ugly appearance and arrogance, and when he went to Soochow, Sun Quan did not want to see him.

Even Liu Bei, who is very knowledgeable, was quite displeased when he first saw Pang Tong, and it was not until Pang Tong showed his extraordinary talent that Liu Bei's attitude changed greatly and he was regarded as a guest.

Military generals rely on martial arts to eat, literati not only rely on talent, but also rely on face, Pang Tong is because he does not have a good face, he has delayed his youth for many years, but it is not like Zhuge Liang with a little white face, as soon as they meet, Liu Beiyan is fascinated and obeys.

When he was secretly thinking about it, Pang Tong had already bowed his hand slightly, and said lightly: "I don't know that the mink Taishou came to the cold house, and he missed the welcome, so please forgive me." ”

"I have admired Mr. Pang's name for a long time, and I have taken the liberty to visit today, I hope it will not be too abrupt." Mink Xiong also returned the salute.

After a few words of greeting, Pang Tong invited Mink Xiong into the hall and sat down as the guest and host.

During the conversation, Diao Xiong was secretly observing Pang Tong, but found that Pang Tong's words were calm and settled, and he didn't see the slightest fear of him, and his expression was always stiff, and he couldn't see the slightest emotion of joy and anger.

"This Pang Tong has a paralyzed face...... "Diao Xiong thought secretly.

He didn't know that in the inner hall, Pang Degong was also secretly observing him, his eyes gradually became strange, and he muttered: "I didn't expect this mink male to be so young, he looks younger than Shi Yuan, but his courage is beyond ordinary people, and his conversation is even more calm and generous. ”

Pang Degong was amazed in his heart, only to feel that although he was not facing Diao Xiong head-on, but in the back hall, he could faintly feel the strong sense of oppression emanating from Diao Xiong.

In the main hall.

After a few polite exchanges, Pang Tong got straight to the point and said: "General Mink is not in Wancheng to govern affairs, I don't know if you come to my Pangjiazhuang, what do you have to say?" ”

"That's the case, the general has admired Brother Shiyuan for a long time, and now there is a shortage of ...... in the county."

As a guide, as a local author of Nanyang, Li Yan spoke on behalf of Mink Xiong, complimented him, and wanted to tactfully explain the purpose of conquering Pang Tong.

Diao Xiong listened to the verbosity, so he didn't wait for him to finish, and said bluntly: "Ben will just say it directly, I just value your Mr. Pang's talent, and I want to invite you to go out of the mountain and be my advisor." ”

Li Yan was stunned, but he didn't expect Diao Xiong to be so direct, so he smiled bitterly and stopped talking.

Pang Tong on the other side still had a paralyzed face, without the slightest emotion, and arched his hand: "The general's good intentions are really flattering, but Pang Mou is only a shallow learner, just an idler in the mountains and wilderness, from a humble background, I am afraid that I will not be able to share the worries of the general, and the general's kindness can only be understood." ”

Sure enough, as Diao Xiong expected, Pang Tong directly refused.

His sentence "idlers in the mountains and wilderness, from humble backgrounds" is not so much laughing at himself, but hinting at his mink origin.

Diao Xiong knew that although Pang Tong was not talented, he was born in a prestigious family, and it was impossible not to have a family opinion.

In Pang Tong's eyes, although he is extraordinary, he is only a martial artist from a common man after all, and he has not yet reached the standard of making Pang Tong effective.

Ermine Xiong's sword eyebrows were crossed, his amiable face suddenly closed, and he sneered: "Heroes don't ask about their origins, Han Gaozu was just a small pavilion chief back then, and his background is not necessarily noble, as long as he is talented, he doesn't care about other generals." ”

His tone was cold and solemn, with an unmistakable majesty.

Diao Xiong really wants to win over and use the Nanyang clan, but this does not mean that he has to nod to the clans, Pang Tong dares to mock his background, and Diao Xiong naturally wants to fight-for-tat.

As soon as these words came out, Pang Degong, who was listening quietly in the back hall, changed his face, and his eyes were shocked.

Mink Xiong's words were clearly compared with Han Gaozu, implying his ambitions.

At a young age, a mere Dong Zhuo's subordinate dared to have such crazy thoughts, how could he not make Pang Degong feel incredible.

Even if it was Pang Tong, who was "facial paralysis", the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his stiff expression finally had a subtle change.

Then, he said coldly: "General Mink has the ambition of Henkel, but Pang just wants to be an idler in the mountains, and please don't force the general." ”

"Are you an idler in the mountains?" Diao Xiong sneered, with sarcasm on his face, "If this is the case, then why did Ben Jiang hear that Pang Xianxian went to Xiangyang to visit Liu Jingsheng, but because he was not reused, he returned to the mountains and forests." “

As soon as these words came out, Pang Tong's face twitched slightly, and a trace of gloom flashed when his deep eyes were neutral.

Mink Xiong uncovered his scars, and he couldn't help it.

Li Yan was also shocked, and he was busy looking at Mink Xiong, obviously thinking that Mink Xiong's words were a bit excessive, which was equivalent to slapping Pang Tong in the face, annoying this talent, and he would not go out to help.

Sure enough, the angry Pang Tong's expression became more and more stiff, and he said in a deep voice: "Who is Pang going to visit, that is Pang Mou's freedom, and it has nothing to do with others, in short, I want to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests now, and I can't be a general." ”

The mink eagle's eyes froze, and in his eyes, the murderous intent was revealed.

Li Yan's nerves immediately tensed, and he secretly pinched a handful of sweat, but he didn't expect that this conversation would become tense so quickly, and he was even more worried that with Mink's ruthless methods, would he be angry and stain Pang Jiazhuang with blood.

In the lobby, the atmosphere sank to the bottom, almost suffocating.

Mink Xiong stared at Pang Tong deadly, his eyes as sharp as a knife, as if he could pierce his body and see through his mind and heart.

Pang Tong didn't move at all, just sat with a paralyzed face.

After a moment's glare, Mink Xiong's eyes swept around, saw the chessboard placed next to him, rolled his eyes, and suddenly smiled.

"It's worthy of a celebrity, this rigid bone is something I admire, but I don't want to come for nothing, so let's make a bet."

Bet?

Pang Tong's eyes moved slightly, revealing suspicion.

Li Yan and Pang Degong in the back hall were also shocked and at a loss for a while.

Diao Xiong got up, sat on the side of the chessboard, picked up a sunspot, and said lightly: "Although I Diao Xiong is a martial artist, but also a little bit of chess, let's play a game, if I win, Mr. Pang needs to be an official for me, if Mr. wins, my Diao Xiong will leave immediately, from now on, I promise not to bother again, I don't know if Mr. can dare to gamble." ”

It turned out that Diao Xiong wanted to gamble with Pang Tong on chess.

Li Yan suddenly realized, couldn't help frowning, and sighed again and again.

Pang Degong in the back hall, but the corners of his mouth raised a smile.

They all believe that if the mink is brave, after all, a martial artist, even if he can play chess, how high can the level be.

However, Pang Tong's chess skills are already at the level of national players, and the essence of chess skills is well known in Nanyang, even if Pang Degong is a chess master, he is not an opponent, let alone Mink Xiong.

Mink Xiong's proposal is tantamount to giving up the opportunity to conquer Pang Tong.

"Why, doesn't Mr. Pang dare?" Mink Xiong saw Pang Tong hesitate, but provoked him.

Pang Tong snorted softly, a bit of pride burst out of his eyes, and then said: "Since the general has this Yaxing, then Pang will accompany the general to play a game." However, the game alone is boring, let's play, just play an ingenious game of chess. ”

"What is the way to do it, sir?"

"Let's play a game of blind chess."
