Chapter 140: Thatched Cottage, Villager

The next day, dawn.

Zhang Xiu looked at the beauty and got up with difficulty.

There is no way, it’s too much to get up in the middle of winter.

After washing up, I opened the door and looked outside the house. The heavy snow had stopped, but the heavy snow really made the entire Xiangyang City covered in silver.

Zhang Xiu recruited Hu Cheer and specially brought many personal guards to the city, crossed the river north, and went to the grand Wolonggang to visit Zhuge Liang.

It was cold and the ground was freezing, and fortunately there was a cotton coat to keep it warm, which made them much more comfortable.

......

It took me more than twenty miles and I walked for nearly two hours.

In the distance, Zhang Xiu looked at the hill. This place was Wolonggang.

Tsk tsk, the village man is still rich. Such a big place belongs to the village man’s family. In the past, there were countless tenant farmers during the Grain Season, and a typical tyrant of aristocrats.

However, Liu Bei worshipped Zhuge Liang three times in later generations. Zhang Xiu didn't believe that Zhuge Liang could do it, and knew that Liu Bei was coming, it was obvious that he had his eyes under Wolonggang.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiu sneered at the corner of his mouth and raised his hand and said, "Yang Xing, you can sneak around the guards and surround me with Wolonggang. If you leave with others, you will take them back to the post."

"No!" Yang Xing nodded and responded.

"Lord, are you still afraid that Zhuge Liang will run away?" Hu Cheer scratched his head and said.

Zhang Xiu shrugged and didn't answer. He probably had to run away with Zhuge Liang's urination, but he didn't have the spare time to play with him.

Today, whether he is willing or not, he cannot let him go. Kill him will not be able to, but if he is not used for himself, lifelong imprisonment is inevitable.

Of course, this is a last resort.

After all, he is here to seek talent on this trip.

......

Wolonggang, in the thatched cottage.

There is a tripod in the thatched cottage, and bamboos crackle and burn it for heating.

Inside the house, the first place.

Zhuge Liang sat elegantly, reading the book with a calm expression, and did not look like he was seventeen or eighteen years old.

He studied Sun Tzu's Art of War, the Terrain of the Four Books and Five Classics, and the Formation and Military Books, and he memorized it like a stream. As for Sun Tzu's Art of War, he studied it more than once.

After reading for a while, his face was chuckled with a gentle chuckling, and he shook his head and showed a hint of bitterness. He then raised his hand and threw the bamboo slip into the cauldron and burned.

On one side, the book boy is used to it.

I don’t know how many rolls of bamboo slips were thrown into the cauldron and burned. Each time I threw one, it means that my master recited one more volume, which was really a very human being.

Zhuge Liang got up, his face was quite boring.

When he turned around and wanted to find a new bamboo slip, someone came quickly outside the house, his Tchaifu.

"Master, a group of soldiers came down from the post, each with a strong and well-known figure. The heads were eight feet tall and were very heroic. I asked the old man about his residence."

Tchaifu said with his head down.

"Oh~, are there people from the army?"

Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows, and a trace of suspicion flashed across the corners of his eyes.

Those who are in the army will not be fine and come to this place in the middle of winter. I am afraid that 80% of those who come to Jingzhou are Zhang Xiu. It seems that Xu Shu and Cui Jun recommended themselves to Zhang Xiu.

After a little thought, Zhuge Liang put on his cloth shoes and said anxiously: "Little boy, destroy the remaining fire in the cauldron. Later, Zhang Xiu came to you and don't show up first. Only when he saw his sincerity could he leave the house."

"When I asked me, I said I went to my friend and I didn't know when I would come back."

"Remember, don't speak nonsense."

"The little boy understands." Shutong lowered his head and said.

After saying that, Shutong shook his head helplessly as he looked at the figure of his master leaving, a little puzzled. His master had been paying attention to major events in the world.

He is not caring about behavior but shows no concern.

Don't understand, don't understand.

He destroyed the Yuhuo in the tripod and just thought about how to fool Zhang Xiu later.

After a long time, not far from the thatched cottage.

Zhang Xiu led Hu Cheer to approach, and more than ten soldiers behind him were responsible for garrison.

Looking at the thatched hut not far away, Zhang Xiu curled his lips, Zhuge Lu, this is a scenic spot in later generations.

Go forward, regardless of whether you are there or not, etiquette will be obtained.

Zhang Xiu bowed and bowed and said loudly: "Zhang Xiu, the general of the big chariot and cavalry, visited Mr. Zhuge Kongming."

The words fell, there was no response in the thatched cottage.

"The great man's chariot and cavalry general Zhang Xiu visited Mr.

Zhang Xiu shouted in a deep voice.

Hu Cheer curled his lips and cursed, "Lord, Zhuge Liang is so arrogant. If you visit him personally, I will not pay attention to it. I will kick his broken cottage."

Zhang Xiu glared at Hu Cheer, and then said loudly again: "The Great Man's General Zhang Xiu visited Mr. Zhang. It is a lot of offensive to come to visit him. I hope he will not blame him."

This time, the book boy walked out of the hut.

Looking at Zhang Xiu, Shutong said calmly: "General, my master has gone to his friend and is no longer in the hut. General can come to visit him again next day."

"His grandma, did this guy really run away?" Hu Cheer's pupils opened and he was so angry that he was really guessed by his lord.

It should be beaten, it should be beaten by such people.

"Lord, after I catch this guy back later, I will help you vent my anger first, see if I don't slap this kid a few times." Hu Che'er said angrily.

Zhang Xiu shook his head and refused to answer, and chuckled, "It's cold and the road back is still far away. I wonder if I can go into the hut and take a break and ask for a cup of hot tea to warm up your body?"

"This..." Shutong hesitated and immediately said, "Please, General."

"Thank you." Zhang Xiu curled the corner of his mouth.

Entering the hut, the furnishings are simple.

There were countless bamboo slips neatly placed on the bookshelf. Zhang Xiu picked up a volume and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows because there was nothing inside the bamboo slip.

"Haha, General, there are very few bamboo slips available for reading in the hut. As for the bamboo slips on the bookshelf, they were all studied by my owner in his life. I have already remembered them in my heart, so I burned the original scroll and left the diabolic bamboo."

The book boy poured tea beside him and explained with a chuckle.

"He remembered all these?" Zhang Xiu's eyes trembled. Is it so strong? There are probably a lot of these together, and it is not easy to remember them in mind.

"Remember, remember, the master can recite it backwards." Shutong said proudly.

Zhang Xiu smashed the corner of his mouth and looked at the highest position of the bookshelf. He wrapped a bamboo slip in brocade cloth. When he was about to take it off, the book boy hurriedly said, "General, no."

"General, this bamboo slip was written by my master's hard work. It should not be shown to others. I hope that the general will not make things difficult for the villain."

"A broken bamboo slip, what can I see?" Hu Cheer curled his lips and said.

Zhang Xiu hesitated, withdrew his hand, and looked at the sketch of the Thirteen State of the World.

The sketch only marks large towns, passes, and some geographical advantages, while some of the prefectures and counties were placed on wooden chess, which seemed to be the corresponding princes.

It seems that Zhuge Liang has been paying attention to the current situation in the world. I think he has always wanted to come out, but he is waiting for a good opportunity. Otherwise, what's the use of paying attention to the current situation in the world?

"Please have tea for general," Shutong whispered.

Zhang Xiu nodded, sat in the second place, and looked out of the house from time to time while tasting tea. I thought it would be soon.

Seeing this, Shutong said curiously: "General, my master is indeed going out to visit his friends. I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to return in a short time, so the general does not need it..."
