Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 578

The bamboo raft has been completely destroyed...

There is a high probability that the six soldiers who went upstream to investigate will disappear, but it is still unknown what accident happened to them.

The scene in front of them struck the hearts of everyone present, because what happened to those six soldiers was likely to be what they will encounter later, and no one could help empathizing.

this moment.

No one spoke, they just silently looked at the wreckage of the bamboo raft floating in front of them in the water, thinking about their own calculations.

Even those soldiers are the same, everyone is an independent person, although those soldiers have no right to speak, or even the right to choose, but when faced with this situation, they still have their own thoughts, just their thoughts Maybe not that important.

at last.

"Master Zuo, what do you think of this matter?"

It was Zhang Liang who broke the silence first, looked at Zuo Ci who was standing aside and asked.

Yan Lu called Zuo Ci an "immortal teacher", and Zhang Liang also called Zuo Ci an "immortal teacher". It is not difficult to see that Zuo Ci should still have some real skills. After all, in such an environment, Zhang Liang and Yan Lu There is absolutely no need to engage in the trick of fooling the people...even though Zhang Liang gouged out one of Zuo Ci's eyes.

"Mr. Zhang, I thought we should first drag the wreckage of the bamboo raft up to see the signs of damage, maybe we can see some clues."

Zuo Ci collected himself, said with cupped hands.

"exactly!"

Zhang Liang suddenly seemed to have been reminded, and immediately shouted to the soldiers under his command, "Come on, quickly drag the wreckage of the bamboo raft!"

"promise!"

A group of soldiers rushed to the river when they heard the words.

Afterwards, they used all the means at their disposal and dragged the wreckage of the bamboo raft to the river bank in a short time.

At this time, everyone saw clearly that the bamboo raft was broken by the waist, and only half of the original wreckage was dragged up, and the remaining half had long since disappeared... As for the bamboo fragments and residues that flowed down in the water, Apparently not enough to form the missing other half of the raft.

"If it was just an ordinary rock, it would never have damaged the bamboo raft to such an extent. Obviously, it must have encountered an unusually strong external force."

After seeing it, Zuo Ci took the initiative to say to Zhang Liang, "I can only make two guesses based on this: one is the strange beast we have seen before, if it shows up to attack the bamboo raft, it should be possible The bamboo raft was damaged to this point; the other is that there are some powerful institutions hidden in the upper reaches of this dark river. If so, this may not be a bad thing, at least as far as I know, most of the known institutions are It is a one-off, once it is triggered, the spring springs out, and if no one resets it, it will be impossible to start it again... And this just shows that the upper reaches of the dark river is where we are going."

"..."

After hearing these words, Wu Liang felt more and more that there was something wrong with Zuo Ci.

Because his words more or less encouraged Zhang Liang to continue to send people upstream to investigate, not to mention that it was just an investigation now, but Zuo Ci's words seemed to have confirmed that there must be something Zhang Liang was interested in hidden in this secret place. The stuff is average.

The important thing is.

After Zhang Liang listened to these words, he didn't ask any questions, but nodded in agreement.

Seeing Zhang Liang's reaction, Wu Liang had to wonder whether the emptied halls and passages he had passed through before had given him clues that he didn't know. After the dark river, there is a secret realm.

"You are right. Since there is no way to go downstream, we can only place our hope on the upstream."

Zhang Liang pondered for a moment, and finally said, "Now that the direction has been determined, I don't want to wait any longer, Yan Lu, you order another four bamboo rafts to be made, counting the remaining two before, we A total of six rafts went to the upper reaches of the dark river to investigate together. My people came to lead the battle, followed by Zuo Xianshi and Mr. Wu, Yan Lu and I were in the middle, and finally my people came to break the rear. What do you think? ?”

"The master has a body of ten thousand gold, how can he put himself in danger?"

As soon as the words fell, it was Yan Lu who raised the objection first, and publicly objected, "According to the opinion of the servants, the master should send a few more people to investigate for many times, and after confirming that all risks have been eliminated, the master will go there in person. "

Wu Liang also thought what Yan Lu said was very true.

Anyway, as far as he is concerned, he definitely hoped that Zhang Liang would send some people to investigate carefully, so he didn't have the awareness to be cannon fodder for others.

It's just that at this moment, in his capacity, it probably doesn't matter much, so it's better not to open his mouth.

"I've made up my mind, don't need to say more!"

I don't know what Zhang Liang was thinking, but he didn't accept Yan Lu's infallible opinion. Instead, he gave him a look and continued, "Quickly follow what I said, are you questioning my decision? After burning the incense, I want to see the finished bamboo raft, otherwise you are the only one asking!"

"promise."

Yan Lu obviously wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't dare to say it, so he had to salute and go to arrange it.

In fact, this is not difficult to do.

The bamboo poles sent in before were very considerable, and now there are still a lot of useless ones left. It should be no problem to make four bamboo rafts. The people are also ready-made, and the work can be started immediately with a word.

It's just that through the attitudes of the few people facing this matter just now, the actual relationship between Wu Liang and the others immediately became a little more doubtful:
Zuo Ci encouraged.

Zhang Liang persisted.

Yan Lu objected.

It stands to reason that Yan Lu is Zhang Liang's slave, so he should naturally be on the side of Zhang Liang, and the opinions he put forward are completely from Zhang Liang's point of view.

In this way, Zhang Liang should seriously consider Yan Lu's opinion, at least he should have some hesitation, instead of going his own way after hearing Zuo Ci's words, and sternly berating Yan Lu when he made an opinion... Unless Zhang Liang has something wrong The reason why taking risks is impossible, and this reason is still unknown to Yan Lu.

Zuo Ci may also know this "reason".

In other words, there may be a secret hidden in this secret realm that only Zhang Liang and Zuo Ci know...

This is also understandable.

As an experienced leader of the tomb robbery organization, Wu Liang can completely assume the roles of the two and make a reasonable inference:

Just like Wu Liang and Yu Ji.

The reason why Zhang Liang called Zuo Ci the Immortal Master must be because Zuo Ci has the ability that Zhang Liang does not have but needs very much.

Wu Liang will ask Yu Ji for advice when encountering some problems in Fengshui and ancient Chinese interpretation.

Zhang Liang seems to be an ordinary person at present, so he should also have some problems that Zuo Ci needs to point out. After all, the art industry has a specialization. If he finds some important things in the passages and halls that have been cleaned up before If the information cannot be deciphered, Zuo Ci may be able to help... Perhaps this is why Zhang Liang kept Zuo Ciqiang in the mansion, and even though he had one of his eyes gouged out, he still called him an immortal master reason.

What's more, it was Zuo Ci's intention that Wu Liang and Dian Wei could come here, so it can be seen that Zuo Ci definitely has some right to speak with Zhang Liang.

Then once Zhang Liang asked Zuo Ci some questions.

And if these questions involve some secrets, the secrets will naturally become a secret between the two of them.

As for Yan Lu.

Wu Liang definitely wanted to see him as a human being, and the soldiers in Jinyang City certainly did not dare to underestimate him, but in the eyes of Zhang Liang, the master, it was hard to say whether Yan Lu was not a human being.

After all, slaves have been a kind of private property since ancient times. For the master, they are no different from the livestock in the field, and their status is not as good as the pets in the master's house.

Therefore, Zhang Liang also had reason to think that it was unnecessary to talk to Yan Lu about some important matters.

So come and go.

Thus formed the delicate scene just now. Although the relationship seems to be a bit confusing, in fact, as long as you think about it from the standpoint and identity of each person, it is actually not that difficult to figure it out.

of course.

This is just Wu Liang's guess for the time being, whether it is correct or not, we have to wait and see.

And this is definitely not Wu Liang's idle imagination.

He is actually looking for an opportunity to break the situation for himself. Things are done by people. If he can figure out the subtle relationship between these people, he will be able to take advantage of the situation at critical moments, and maybe he will be able to create a situation that is beneficial to him. situation...

When thinking about it like this.

"Son..."

Dian Wei suddenly touched Wu Liang lightly while others were not paying attention.

"?"

Wu Liang glanced sideways at him, and there was a doubt in his eyes.

"Just now Zuo Ci secretly ventilated with me. He told me that if I want to protect the young master from retreating safely, I must try my best to protect him in the future and obey his orders at critical moments, otherwise the young master will die here today. .”

Dian Wei squirmed his lips in a very small way, and didn't look at Wu Liang, but said in a very slight volume that Wu Liang could barely hear.

"understood……"

Although Wu Liang just responded lightly without changing his face.

But he was already cursing in his heart: "This bastard who has suffered a thousand knives dares to pry the corner of my wall in front of me, I really don't know what it means!"

of course.

He knows Dian Wei's heart better than anyone else, even if Zuo Ci is eloquent, he definitely has no chance to shake Dian Wei's sincerity towards him.

The reason why Dian Wei listened to his words was because the matter might affect Wu Liang's safety.

But he just listened to it, and still wouldn't listen to him.

Otherwise, Dian Wei would not have deliberately informed Wu Liang of this matter, and Wu Liang had to decide what to do.

"It sounds like Zuo Ci may have grasped some key information, and he already has a complete plan in his mind..."

Wu Liang began to secretly analyze the deep meaning hidden in Zuo Ci's words, "It's just that he couldn't complete this plan alone, so he left me the clues of 'escape' and 'twelfth lunar month' with water marks that day. The two clues are just laying the groundwork for today's plan in advance, and now, he is preparing to implement the plan, but he is not sure whether I have learned about the two clues, so he finally couldn't resist using such a risky way to communicate with Dian Wei."

"However, he just asked Dianwei to cooperate, and didn't mention what I should do..."

"Dogs look down on people, this is it!"

At this point in the analysis, Wu Liang finally fully understood.

Zuo Ci didn't take him seriously at all, and only needed Dian Wei's cooperation from the beginning to the end.

And the reason why he was involved was only because he was Dian Wei's immediate boss, and there was really no way to get around it.

Wu Liang suddenly thought of Zuo Ci's little move before.

Ever since he came here to see Zuo Ci, he turned his body sideways every time he talked with Wu Liang, and every time he turned slightly to Dian Wei's side, and when talking, his only remaining eye would sometimes use the rest of his eye. Light aimed at Dian Wei...

In other words.

At that time, Zuo Ci seemed to be introducing the situation to Wu Liang, but in fact he was introducing the situation to Dian Wei, trying to convey some useful information to Dian Wei, and by the way, he was getting close!
"This poor man..."

After understanding this matter, although Wu Liang wanted to say something to Zuo Ci, he was actually not very angry in his heart.

Now it seems that what Zuo Ci said to Zhang Liang and Yan Lu that "witchcraft comprehends by analogy" and so on is nothing but nonsense, he never thought that Wu Liang had anything special from the beginning to the end.

On the contrary, Dianwei's iron tower-like body is a solid strength on the surface.

Therefore, this cannot be blamed on Zuo Ci.

People are always more willing to believe what they see with their own eyes, and Wu Liang is the same. If he doesn't mention the essence he already knows, and chooses a guard who can go through life and death from Zhen Mi and Dian Wei, Wu Liang will not hesitate. Do not hesitate to choose Dianwei...

But in fact, apart from going into battle to kill the enemy, Zhen Mi's abilities are far superior to Dian Wei's.

After so pondering for a moment.

Wu Liang also didn't look back, but lowered his voice and said briefly to Dian Wei: "Wait and see."

If it would be beneficial for him to cooperate with Zuo Cizhen, Wu Liang would certainly not refuse.

What's more, looking at that eye, Zuo Ci's and Zhang Liang's positions are obviously opposite. An enemy's enemy is a friend, and sometimes it can be believed...

……

Soon after, the new bamboo rafts were also rushed to completion.

There are a total of six bamboo rafts, Zhang Liang did not follow Zuo Ci's previous suggestion, but personally assigned the staff.

There are ten people on each raft.

The ten people on the first bamboo raft were all Zhang Liang's soldiers.

Dian Wei was assigned to the second bamboo raft, and the rest were soldiers under Zhang Liang's command.

Wu Liang was assigned to the third bamboo raft, and the rest were soldiers under Zhang Liang's command.

And Zuo Ci was on the fourth bamboo raft.

Zhang Liang and Yan Lu took the fifth bamboo raft together.

Finally, there is another bamboo raft, which is also Zhang Liang's soldiers, and they are in charge of the rear.

Zhang Liang deliberately divided Wu Liang, Dian Wei, and Zuo Ci into different bamboo rafts, and the idea of ​​dividing and conquering is self-evident.

Although Dian Wei didn't want to be separated from Wu Liang, and Wu Liang also hoped that Dian Wei would stay by his side, he had to bow his head under the eaves, so he could only follow Zhang Liang's wishes at this time.

In this way, the bamboo rafts left the bank one by one, and slowly marched up the dark river.

In the end, it took about half a stick of incense, and the one thing that everyone was worried about had already appeared... A piece of light quietly emerged from the bottom of the water.
