God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

Chapter 398 The Heroes of the Zhuge Family
……

Under the instruction of Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian, the pottery merchant could only accept the arrangement from his father with a wry smile.

Then, under the leadership of the servants, they packed their things and luggage, brought generous gifts, and prepared to go from Xuzhou to Fenggao City in Mount Tai.

Thanks to the wide road built between Taishan County and Xuzhou, large horse-drawn carriages can also travel normally on it.

This large-scale protective carriage was also used as one of the gifts after the road was opened. Ten vehicles were given to Xuzhou Mu Taoqian for daily use and had a good protective effect.

As Tao Qian's eldest son, with Tao Qian's gift, the pottery merchant also had a large carriage for riding and use.

"Tzuyu, hey, I really don't understand why my father would give me such a task. I may not be able to complete it!" Tao Shang sighed, knowing his own abilities.

Being incompetent in writing and martial arts, he may not be able to complete even this simple task well.

The pottery merchant still had a good impression of the two people he pulled into the car halfway, and it felt like he had met his confidant.

Even after getting along for less than a day, you can talk about what is on your mind to relieve the pressure in your heart and reduce the sense of oppression in your mind.

Zhuge Jin looked at such a pottery merchant, showed a gentle smile, and said softly, "Master Tao, you must not think like this. You have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders, but you also have the motivation to move forward..."

Seeing this scene, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but shook his head, no longer paying attention to the two people talking, and turned to look at the wall of the carriage.

Zhuge Liang was still quite interested in such a large protective carriage.

After all, there are only a few such large protective carriages in Xuzhou.

In Xuzhou, this thing is closer to a symbol and proof of identity.

After all, this kind of large protective carriage cannot go anywhere except inside the city. The only way it can go is the road leading to Mount Tai.

The range of uses was small, and there was no place to sell them. As a result, only some Xuzhou dignitaries had such large defensive carriages.

After tapping it twice, Zhuge Liang was able to understand what was contained inside. Based on the thickness and corresponding strength, he could roughly guess the defensive strength of this large defensive carriage.

Defense against crossbows?This kind of structure is too much. No wonder the quantity is so small. With this kind of material, several sets of armor can be better than this!

Zhuge Jin's spiritual talent allowed him to easily understand what the potter was trying to do.

The harmonious attitude and gentle gentlemanly demeanor quickly brought the relationship between the two people closer, as if they were close friends who talked about everything.

The wide and smooth road allows the carriage to travel quickly, even with guards, the speed is not slow.

A group of Danyang veterans who had survived the quelling of the Qiang rebellion were acting as guards. On such a wide and flat road, no one would be out of their minds and come to rob. This was obviously not a team of normal people.

It was precisely this group of guards that gave Zhuge Jin the idea to sneak into them. With his spiritual talent, he easily met the person in charge - Tao Qian's eldest son, Tao Shang.

During the subsequent conversation, the two were very satisfied with each other.

It is adhering to the belief that the pottery merchant should repay the favor if he helps along the way.

At Zhuge Jin's suggestion, the pottery merchant followed Zhuge Jin's suggestion.Instead of going directly to Fenggao City, he wandered around Taishan County to understand the real situation in Taishan County.

Relying on the official letter from Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, at least there were no obstacles in the cities along the way, and I learned a lot about Taishan County.

If the degree is slightly deeper, the pottery merchant will naturally not be able to see it, but the impact is not big and Zhuge Jin can see it.

In this case, the pottery merchant provided protection and food consumption along the way, and Zhuge Jin provided his own opinions.

The two of them cooperated very smoothly. The journey that could be completed in three days took ten days of hard work before they entered Fenggao City.

"Brother, Mr. Tao has already left, do you still want to stay here and continue to watch?" Zhuge Liang looked at Zhuge Jin, then at the carriage that was slowly driving away, and asked with some doubts.

Zhuge Jin saw the carriage slowly disappearing in the distance until it was no longer visible, then he turned to Zhuge Liang and said, "Although Tao Shang has no talent, he is quite generous and treats people well. It's a pity." …”

Zhuge Liang nodded at this point.

On the occasion of parting, the pottery merchant even gave Zhuge Jin ten gold beads. In addition, he also informed him that if he was short of money or in trouble, he could go to him and anyone who could help would definitely help.

"It's a pity that as the eldest son of Xuzhou Mu, these alone are not enough. His talents cannot inherit Xuzhou at all." Zhuge Liang gave his evaluation slowly.

Zhuge Jin just smiled and nodded, and said with emotion, "The eldest son came to Mount Tai just to attend Chen Hou's wedding. No one would believe it."

"Xuzhou Mu is old. Someone needs to take over Xuzhou. The two of them are not capable enough and cannot inherit Xuzhou. What's more, they have no official positions so far. It is very difficult to inherit Xuzhou." Zhuge Liang looked around. , answered calmly.

Zhuge Jin glanced at his younger brother, then looked around, and said calmly, "In this case, Xuzhou Mu can only choose two people."

"Qingzhou Mu Liu Xuande and Yanzhou Governor Cao Mengde." Zhuge Liang said the names of the two people.

When Zhuge Jin heard the names of these two people, he turned to look at Zhuge Liang and said with emotion, "You are smarter than I thought."

"But you helped, helped Liu Xuande, and affected the potter's judgment." Zhuge Liang looked at Zhuge Jin and said calmly. "I didn't influence his judgment. I just told the truth. He was the one who made the decision." Zhuge Jin shook his head and explained his behavior.

"But based on the current situation in Taishan County and Xuzhou Mu's choice, sometimes telling the truth is essentially a form of favoritism." Zhuge Liang looked at his brother, thought for a moment, and then continued, "The people of Taishan County have an impact. I have not judged you, and my brother has not yet become an official, so why did he make such a choice?"

Zhuge Jin glanced at his younger brother, withdrew his expression, and said calmly, "The people of Taishan County are at least living a good life, right? If the places were exchanged, you might have done more than me, right? wrong?"

Upon hearing this inquiry, Zhuge Liang fell silent for a moment.

Seeing his brother like this, Zhuge Jin rarely became happy.

"By the way, where is the address that the old gentleman left for you?" Zhuge Jin, after laughing, looked at Zhuge Liang who was still thinking and asked quickly.

After hearing this question, Zhuge Liang woke up from his thoughts, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, unfolded it, looked at the address written on it, and read it out.

Zhuge Jin just listened to it once and memorized the address. He said with emotion, "I don't know whether what the old gentleman said is true or not. I hope it is true."

Zhuge Liang nodded after hearing this and agreed with his brother.

After all, their trip was, in a sense, more like running away from home.

Originally, he was planning to pack his things and head to Jingzhou with his family.

As a result, I met an old gentleman on the way.

The old gentleman named Zhuge Liang by name. Although he didn't know why, Zhuge Liang still walked out.

A gray-haired old gentleman actually tried to argue with Zhuge Liang.

You must know that Zhuge Liang is only 11 years old. Is this really a good thing?
Without even thinking about it, Zhuge Liang was ready to politely refuse the old gentleman's request.

But then the old man said something, which gave Zhuge Liang the idea of ​​giving it a try.

A book of ten thousand words is used as a bet. If Zhuge Liang can win, the book of ten thousand words will be given to him.

What Zhuge Liang needs to do is to defeat the old gentleman. There are no restrictions on the number of times or types, including military, strategy, internal affairs, etc.

In this case, Zhuge Liang naturally would not refuse. After all, the Book of Ten Thousand Characters is really rare and precious.

The knowledge that can be recorded in one book is equivalent to many bamboo slips.

After learning about this bet, Zhuge Jin looked at Zhuge Liang with a puzzled face. He didn't understand why his brother had such good luck?

There are so many types, and there is no limit on the number of times. As long as you win once, you can take it away. Why can't he, Zhuge Jin, touch it?

Zhuge Liang fought hard for a day and night, debating various types, citing classics, and losing many times. Finally, he seized the opportunity and won once.

Although Zhuge Liang didn't understand why the old gentleman was always so cautious and cautious when debating with him.

But after every victory, the smile on his face is so happy, as if he has achieved an incredible victory.

Zhuge Liang didn't care about his failure at all. Failure was normal for him at such a young age.

From the failure of the initial debate, Zhuge Liang learned a lot of useful knowledge, and no longer debated based on victory. Instead, he gradually expanded the types and tried to understand as much as possible some things he didn't know.

The old gentleman seemed to know a lot. Basically during the debate, except that he sometimes took a little longer to think, he always felt like he knew everything.

After spending a day and a night, Zhuge Liang gained a lot of useful knowledge and also won his first victory.

Then the old gentleman left him a token, an address, and a book of ten thousand words, and left with a smile on his face.

During the debate that day and night, Zhuge Liang felt deeply, and he could understand the reasons for the final victory.

In this case, looking at the address on the paper, it is natural to go and take a look since it is not far from Xuzhou and only a few days away.

As a result, Tao Shang and his brother Zhuge Jin seemed to have wasted more time on the way.

"This distance is a bit far. It's actually in the north of the city. Forget it, it's still early. It's still too late to rush there." Zhuge Jin looked at the address on the paper, then looked up at the sky. The sun had not reached noon yet, and then he seriously said.

Zhuge Liang nodded and expressed his agreement.

Zhuge Liang was still very interested in the place written on the address.

After all, the old gentleman said that there are 10,000+ volumes of books at the address.
