Chapter 126: Huang Chengyan

The old man in white showed a look of surprise, "Oh? Who is the other party? Glancing outside, "What about people?" ”

The old servant said: "It is a heroic son, with a sword and a strong bow, and the old slave invited him to come over, but he refused." ”

The old man in white was a little surprised, "The heroic and extraordinary son is not a scholar?" The old servant said, "He doesn't look like a scholar!" By the way, the more than 20 entourages he accompanied him, all with swords, all of them were very strong, even the pro-army guards around Lord Liu Biao could not compare with them! ”

Old Man Bai was surprised, "Have you seen him in the past?" ”

The old servant shook his head, "Never seen before!" If you have seen such an extraordinary character, you will never forget it! Judging by their appearance, they look like they have just entered the city from the south, and they should not be locals! ”

The old man in white was very curious, and hurriedly asked, "Do you know where he lives?" ”

The old servant replied: "The old slave sent a small servant to follow, and if he settles in the city, he will soon be rewarded." ”

The old man in white nodded.

The eyes turned to the largest inn in the city, Yuelai Inn. Zhang Lang and his party settled down in the inn.

Yang Kun pushed the door in, walked quickly to Zhang Lang, hugged his fists and said, "Childe, there is a kid who has been following us from the archway to here, do you want to kill him?" ”

Zhang Lang shook his head, "No need! It won't be a bad thing! "No!" Yang Kun retreated.

Zhang Lang was thinking about tomorrow's trip to Wollongong, a little nervous, worried that there was no Zhuge Liang in Wollongong, and what Zhuge Liang would do if he refused to assist him.

Later that day, a few guards who had been sent out came back and put a bunch of precious items such as brocade and jade that they had just bought from the street on the square table, and one of them clenched his fists and said, "Childe, you have bought everything you want!" ”

Zhang Lang looked at these valuable items in front of him, but suddenly frowned, and muttered: "Characters like Zhuge Liang are only afraid that they can't look down on these things!" After thinking about it, he sat down at the table, ordered the things on the table to be removed, and prepared pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. The guards immediately moved their hands, removed the items, and brought pens, ink, paper, and inkstones.

Zhang Lang spread out a piece of rice paper and drew it, drawing several battle formations currently in use by his army, one of which is the Star Scattering Array, which does not belong to this era, but a kind of infantry against cavalry in the Southern Song Dynasty!

Yang Kun came in and reported: "Childe, someone asks to see you." ”

Zhang Lang didn't raise his head, and asked casually, "Who?" ”

"The person who came called himself Huang Chengyan."

Zhang Lang was stunned, "Huang Chengyan? Zhuge Liang's father-in-law? Please! Wait, I'll go in person. Then he threw down his brush, got up and left the room.

When he came to the door, he saw an old man standing at the door, accompanied by an old servant. The old man was dressed in a white robe, with snow-white hair, a cane in his hand, and a fairy wind and bones, like a fairy among the gods.

Zhang Lang secretly praised, hugged his fists and said: "I don't know if the old gentleman has arrived, I missed the distance, please forgive me!" ”

Huang Chengyan brushed his beard and smiled, looked at Zhang Lang with his eyes, secretly admired, and said with a smile: "It's good that the son is not strange for the old man to come to visit!" ”

Zhang Lang smiled: "Where, where, old gentleman, please." ”

Huang Chengyan walked into the room with the old servant, Zhang Lang invited him to sit down, and he sat down opposite Huang Chengyan. A guard brought tea.

Huang Chengyan glanced at Zhang Lang, "Looking at the appearance of the son, he doesn't look like a scholar, but he looks like a general who leads the army!" Zhang Lang smiled: "The old gentleman praised me falsely, I am just a businessman, but I like to dance with knives and guns." ”

Huang Chengyan inadvertently saw the formation diagram in front of Zhang Lang, showed curiosity, and asked, "Is that Childe's masterpiece?" ”

Zhang Lang smiled: "I have nothing to do and draw casually." ”

"I wonder if I can show the old decay?"

Zhang Lang generously handed the painting to Huang Chengyan, and he also wanted to see what Zhuge Liang's father-in-law had to say after seeing it.

Huang Chengyan looked at it carefully, first frowned, and then showed a look of amazement, and exclaimed: "Okay! Wonderful! These kinds of formations are unheard of, but they are obviously extraordinary! Hurriedly looked up at Zhang Lang, "Dare to ask Childe, these are really Childe's masterpieces?" ”

Zhang Lang smiled and nodded.

Huang Chengyan sighed with emotion: "The son is a great talent, it is really an eye-opener for the old man!" Then he asked: "Dare to ask Gongzi's surname!" ”

Zhang Lang smiled, "I don't want to deceive the old man, and my real surname and real name are really inconvenient to say!" ”

Huang Chengyan smiled slightly, and there was a look in his eyes that seemed to see something.

Zhang Lang asked: "Old man, I came to Nanyang this time to visit my virtuous son-in-law, I wonder if the old man is willing to introduce me to him?" ”

Huang Chengyan was stunned for a moment, "Where did Childe start with this?" Where did the old son-in-law come from? The little girl is still waiting for the boudoir! ”

Zhang Lang sighed and said secretly: Why hasn't Zhuge Liang married Huang Yueying at this time? Hurriedly asked, "Does the old gentleman know Zhuge Liang?" ”

Huang Chengyan nodded, "Naturally." This Zhuge Liang is the most resourceful of all the young people I have ever met, and he is now studying in Wollongong! Then he smiled, "Of course, I don't think the talent of the son is inferior to Zhuge Liang!" Glancing at Lang, "And it seems to be even better!" ”

Zhang Lang laughed, "The old gentleman praised it falsely. Old man, can you introduce me to this Zhuge Liang. ”

Huang Chengyan smiled: "This is a trivial matter. It's just that Zhuge Liang has gone out and is not at home now! ”

Zhang Lang showed a look of disappointment, "Then when will he come back?" ”

"Oh, it's hard to say, or three or five days, or ten days and a half moon."

Zhang Lang felt that he should stay and wait a few days.

"Childe, the old man has some questions, I don't know if I can ask for advice?"

Zhang Lang smiled, "The old gentleman just said it. ”

Immediately, Huang Chengyan asked a few questions that seemed to be very ordinary but hidden mysteries, and Zhang Lang answered them one by one, and he couldn't tell whether Huang Chengyan was satisfied with Zhang Lang's answer. Then, Huang Chengyan chatted with Zhang Lang about the current situation and some of his own views, and he seduced Zhang Lang's views from beginning to end.

Unknowingly, it was getting late, Huang Chengyan stood up and said with a smile: "I have been bothering for a long time, and I also ask my son to forgive me, and the old man has taken his leave." Zhang Lang personally sent Huang Chengyan out of the inn, and Huang Chengyan hugged his fists and said, "Son, stay here." He turned and took the old servant and left.

Zhang Lang returned to the room, thought about it, and decided to go to Wollongong for a walk first.

When Huang Chengyan returned home, a beautiful middle-aged woman and a woman in her twenties were waiting for him to come back for dinner. The woman wore a purple robe with a narrow waist, a bee waist and shaved shoulders, a long hair shawl, and a hosta stuck horizontally above the bun; The face is very beautiful, the temperament is serene, and the eyes reveal the light of wisdom.
