The fence outside the door is sparse, the small grass house is crooked, it seems that it will collapse as soon as the wind blows, Wang Baoyu is completely disappointed, people who live in this kind of place must not have a magic pen in their hands, it must not be the magic pen Ma Liang.

"The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, and Weijia is returning to his hometown. Ande warriors are guarding the Quartet! As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard Lang Lang's reading sound from inside, and when I listened carefully, it seemed that there were only two people inside, one was teaching and the other was reading, and the voice of teaching was louder than reading.

"Ji Chang is here?" Zhuge Liang shouted loudly, and the sound in the room stopped abruptly, and then, a young man in his twenties walked out, looking ordinary and dressed ordinarily. What does not match his actual age is that he has two eye-catching white eyebrows on his forehead and a big brush in his hand, which is Ma Liang.

Zhuge Liang reported his name, and introduced Wang Baoyu and Fan Jinqiang, Ma Liang bowed down and invited Zhuge Liang and others into the grass house.

A young man about twenty years old also hurriedly came over to pay respects, his nose and eyes are similar to Ma Liang, and he is a lot taller than Ma Liang, so he should be a relative. waited for the name on the newspaper, it turned out to be Ma Liang's younger brother, Ma Jian Ma Youchang.

Losing the street pavilion, Zhuge Liang slashed Ma Jian with tears, and almost everyone in later generations knew the name Ma Tan, which almost became a synonym for exaggeration.

However, Ma Jian looks very shrewd, and he is more handsome than Ma Liang. Although he is young, his waist is straight, his eyes are sharp, and he lives in a cold room, and he is still neither humble nor arrogant when he sees his guests, which shows that he is very confident.

The hut was really simple, surrounded by piles of books, and on the mottled desk, there were some scattered bamboo slips, the ink on which had not yet dried, and it was obvious that Ma Tan was studying on it. On the opposite side is a stone slab with many words written on it, and Ma Liang is teaching his younger brother to learn cultural knowledge.

"Mr. Kong Ming, the humble house is shabby, and there are many mistakes!" Ma Liang said apologetically, and asked Zhuge Liang to sit down on the only ** in the house.

"When I was in Nanyang, it was like Mr. Huang's current situation." Zhuge Liang felt the same way, and slowly sat down cross-legged.

One sentence brought the relationship between the two closer, Ma Liang sat on the ground opposite, as if talking about family life with friends, and said slowly: "The world is impermanent, the family is in the middle of the road, and the rest of the brothers go to other places, only me and my brother depend on each other." ”

"Mr. Bo Gu is well-versed in the present, a rare talent at the moment, why did he succumb to this?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"Alas, it's not for me, Ma Liangqinggao, in today's troubled times, there is no virtuous gentleman to assist." Maleonn Road.

"I was ordered by Uncle Huang to come and ask Mr. to come out of the mountain to help." Zhuge Liang said.

Ma Liang was silent for a long time, and when he saw this scene, Zhuge Liang's heart was half cold. Sure enough, Ma Liang finally spoke, and said reluctantly: "Uncle Liu Huang is undoubtedly a hero in the world, there are many people in the world, and Ji Chang is still old, and it is difficult to take on a heavy responsibility. ”

"I'm afraid this is not the voice of the gentleman? Can you be honest, Liang Zi will not be embarrassed Mr. Zhuge Liang said earnestly.

Ma Liang thought about it again and said bluntly: "Uncle Liu Huang and his people are too righteous, and they will be burdened by this matter." ”

Ma Liang's meaning is very simple, he is not optimistic about Liu Bei, thinking that Liu Bei will definitely make a mistake because of his buddy's righteousness. Wang Baoyu is Liu Bei's fourth brother who has not long been married, and he was a little unhappy when he heard this, and interjected dissatisfiedly: "Mr. Ma Liang, you are all mixed up like this, why are you still picky?" People live in the world, who doesn't have a few friends, and sticking a knife in the ribs for a friend, morality is the big husband. ”

Ma Jian immediately looked at Wang Baoyu, and there was a bit of approval in his eyes. But Ma Liang was different, his white eyebrows raised, and he said in a displeased voice: "There is also a difference between righteous words, small righteousness must be selfish, and the righteous will be superior." Ma Liang would rather die trapped here than be greedy for vanity and abolish the public for personal gain! ”

"Cut, what's public, it's private, you won't dislike my eldest brother for not being able to pay your salary, right? People, don't be too powerful, my eldest brother is going to become a climate sooner or later, and he can be poor for a lifetime? Wang Baoyu snorted.

Ma Liang sneered: "If it's for money, why should I be so poor with my younger brother?" ”

Damn, this temper is quite strong, aren't you waiting here to catch a big fish? Wang Baoyu was about to taunt a few words, Zhuge Liang hurriedly waved his hand, signaling him not to talk nonsense, and still said very politely: "Ji Chang, since I have followed the lord, I have never seen the lord misunderstand a major matter because of righteousness, so I am too worried." ”

"Liu Guanzhang has become the laughing stock of the world, why did he tie up again?" Ma Liang squinted at Wang Baoyu and said.

What! The laughing stock of the world? If these words reach Liu Bei's ears, they will definitely kill you, and please fart!

Zhuge Liang said: "Baoyu has always been by my side, and there is indeed a talent that ordinary people can't match, and the lord's move is also discerning." ”

"Looking at the age of the same as the younger brother, what kind of talent do you have?" Ma Liang lost his temper and asked.

Cut, I'm actually a dozen years older than you! Wang Baoyu said secretly, and then said unashamedly: "I am proficient in the way of a warlock, and I can know the rise and fall of the country, honor and disgrace, personal life and death. ”

"What do you think of me?" Ma Liang raised his face and said.

"It's not a big deal, a character on paper. To put it mildly, it's a mouthful! Wang Baoyu looked disdainful.

Zhuge Liang regretted bringing Wang Baoyu here, but in front of Liu Bei, he promised to invite Ma Liang, but he didn't expect Wang Baoyu to play a role in disrupting the situation.

Ma Liang was angry, got up and pointed to his eyebrows and said, "I have a pair of white eyebrows, everyone is different, what do you mean?" ”

"Do you really think of yourself as a character? Ganluo worshiped the prime minister at the age of twelve, boiled his hair white, isn't he also a mortal in the flesh? Wang Baoyu squinted at Ma Liang, and said unceremoniously: "Pay attention to your body in the future, kidney loss!" Lack of qi and blood! Be careful of being like Ganluo, Huaicai has a short life! ”

Ma Liang was a little crazy and said: "I, Ma Liang, have been reading military books since I was a child, and the three eldest brothers can't argue with me!" ”

Alas! Wang Baoyu shook his head and said: "Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth. has the ability to do something big, you stay at home all day as an otaku, and no one recognizes your ability. ”

"I'll go with you, and I'll take a few cities first!" Ma Liang slapped his chest angrily.

Zhuge Liang smiled secretly, knowing that Ma Liang had been fooled, and immediately said: "With Kong Ming here, Mr. Ma Liang is at Uncle Liu Huang, and he will be able to show his talents and live up to what he has learned in his life." ”

Looking at Zhuge Liang's humble appearance, Ma Liang regretted a little, in the end, he was still young and vigorous, and he shouldn't be so light and impulsive. He glared at Wang Baoyu and said to Zhuge Liang: "Mr. Kong Ming, I have a reluctant request?" ”

"Ji Chang, please speak?"

"Can you bring your brother with you?"

"It's okay!" Zhuge Liang nodded in agreement, and asked Fan Jinqiang to put down the congratulatory gift, which contained a hundred taels of silver, plus some satin cloth.
