Chapter 231: Encountering Water Mirror and Phoenix Chick
"He who comes is stopped."
Liu Bei, Xu Shu and Dong He were riding horses, but were stopped by a boy when passing the ferry.
"Why are you stopping me from waiting?"
Dong He, among the three, asked first.
The boy first saluted the three people, then looked at Liu Bei and asked, "Are you Liu Xuande?"
Liu Bei, Xu Shu and Dong He looked at each other. Xu Shu gave Liu Bei a reassuring look. He seemed to know the boy, but he smiled and said nothing.
Liu Bei had no choice but to ask the boy, "How did a country boy know my name?"
"I didn't know it at first. It's my good friend who often tells others that there's a Liu Xuande who is a contemporary hero and will be visiting us soon. My master specifically ordered me to wait here."
Friends?
Could it be another young wise and capable minister or general?
Liu Bei asked with a smile: "Where are your friends and master now?"
The boy raised his hand and pointed to the other side of the river. "It's on the other side."
"Please follow me, Envoy Liu."
"it is good"
Seeing Liu Bei walking away with the boy, Dong He wanted to follow him, but was stopped by Xu Shu. He smiled and said
"Youzai, I saw a Go game in the pavilion ahead, why don't we go and have a game?"
Dong He was not a fool. He looked at Xu Shu and then at Liu Bei. Combining Xu Shu's previous performance, he thought that Yuanzhi must have colluded with others. Xu Yuanzhi, who was able to receive the instructions from the immortal in his dream, would certainly not harm his lord.
So he nodded and said "OK."
"Envoy Liu, I can only take you here."
"Thank you."
The boatman rowed the boat slowly to the shore and pointed out the direction for Liu Bei. Liu Bei thanked him with a fist, jumped off the boat and headed away in the direction he pointed.
As he trudged along, Liu Bei saw a man carrying a hoe coming towards him from afar. He was wearing brown clothes, and his clothes and face were covered in mud. He looked not clean at all, and was not much different from a farmer working hard in the fields.
Liu Bei showed no annoyance. He clasped his fists and said to the man in front of him, "Excuse me, is Mr. Pang's family in front?"
"Oh?"
The farmer looked surprised. He did not answer Liu Bei's question. Instead, he looked at the mud on his body, then looked at Liu Bei and said, "I see that your clothes are not ordinary. Even a rich man cannot afford to wear your clothes. You must be a noble. I am just a farmer. Why are you so polite?"
Even though Liu Bei didn't notice anything strange at first glance, he couldn't help but feel surprised when he heard the farmer say that. When he was in Zhuo County and governing Jincheng County, he had communicated with the farmer. How could an ordinary farmer have such a reaction?
Could it be that I have met some talented person again?
Fortunately, Liu Bei only thought for a moment, and he came to his senses and said: "Clothes are just ordinary things to wear. The quality of clothes is not the standard to judge a wise man."
"Good, good, good." The farmer praised repeatedly. He twirled his beard and laughed loudly, "It's not unfair that I lost."
lose?
Liu Bei was confused when he heard this word. At this moment, a young voice came from afar.
"Pang means vast! Tong means overall leadership!"
Pang Tong?!
His heart suddenly trembled. Liu Bei looked in the direction of the voice and saw a child staggering towards him in the distance. It was obvious that he was trying to imitate the leisurely pace of a scholar, but the sight of such a child was hard to avoid making people laugh.
The farmer shook his head and laughed, "This is fear. I broke my promise."
Break your promise?
Liu Bei asked, "May I ask who you are, sir?" The farmer dropped his hoe, clasped his fists towards Liu Bei, and said with a smile, "Greetings, envoy Liu. My surname is Sima, my given name is Hui, and my courtesy name is Decao. I am just an idler in the countryside, and I am not worthy of the title of sir."
Soon after he finished speaking, Pang Tong staggered to the two of them and said seriously, "My lord, Mr. Sima is being modest. My uncle often told me that a man of virtue is like the moonlight at night, which cannot be ignored. He is a great sage, and you must take him under your command!"
"You brat, you've turned your elbow outward just by looking at it, haven't you?" Sima Hui scolded with a smile, but he was also secretly shocked. Lord. In the Han Dynasty, Duke is a respectful title. Elders in high positions are often addressed as Ming Gong. The title of Lord is really unheard of.
No wonder Pang Tong said those words a few days ago. It turns out he was waiting for me here?
Sima Hui, who realized that he had been tricked by Pang Tong, was not angry at all. Instead, he felt that Pang Tong was gifted. He looked at Liu Bei and Pang Tong, and saw Liu Bei picking up Pang Tong and casually taking out a longevity lock and putting it around Pang Tong's neck.
Pang Tong said: "My lord, Mr. Sima has always been trustworthy, and he doesn't want to spread the reputation of breaking his promise. I think his silence must be a sign of his consent."
Hearing this, Sima Hui's face darkened. He didn't care about Liu Bei's expression of trying not to laugh. He changed the subject, "Sir, why don't you come with me to visit Mr. Pang? However, Mr. Pang is devoted to the mountains and rivers and doesn't want to be an official. I hope you can make plans."
Pang Tong whispered in Liu Bei's ear: "My Lord, I am right, am I not?"
"."
Sima Hui looked at Pang Tong deeply and thought, could you please lower your voice a little?
He cleared his throat and said, "A real man should keep his word and do what he says. Tong, I have fulfilled my promise to you. I want to go to see Envoy Liu when I return from the fields today. As for asking for an official position, it all depends on whether the Envoy agrees."
As he spoke, he looked at Liu Bei.
Now that things have come to this, how could Liu Bei not understand what Shui Jing meant? Who was Mr. Shui Jing? It was this gentleman who recommended Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong to him, and he saw early on that Zhuge Liang was not in the right position.
According to Zhen De, there is a comic book in the fairyland in the future, and there is also the Eight Wonders of the Water Mirror.
Mr. Shui Jing must be a great talent of the time!
Liu Bei was overjoyed. He put Pang Tong down, stepped back three steps, and bowed. "Bei, I am willing to entrust you with important matters. I will serve you as my assistant!"
Pang Tong followed suit, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Tong, I pay my respects to the Master."
"Yes, yes, sir, please stand up quickly!"
Two figures, one big and one small, saluted one another, which made Sima Hui smile so hard that his eyebrows bent over. He stepped forward and wanted to support Liu Bei, but seeing that his outstretched hands were muddy, he hesitated. Liu Bei laughed and held Sima Hui's hand without any objection.
"Mr. Shuijing, please"
"Envoy, please"
"My Lord, Teacher, wait for me!"
"Father, do you think Mr. Shuijing is really willing to go with Envoy Liu?"
Pang Shanmin asked curiously.
Pang Degong nodded and said, "If another twenty years pass, Decao's enthusiasm will probably be completely exhausted. After being inspired by the same person, with the ability of Liu Shijun, Decao will not be able to escape."
"Then..." Pang Shanmin looked at Pang Degong who was drinking tea leisurely, and his thoughts inevitably wandered. It was a well-known fact that his father did not like to take up an official position. Before this, no matter whether he was a county magistrate or one of the three highest officials, his father was indifferent.
"What if Envoy Liu comes to invite you to serve as an official?" Pang Shanmin couldn't help but ask.
Pang Degong shook his head, "I'm already virtuous, it would be greedy to invite me again."
Pang Shanmin muttered: "I don't think it's that simple. Why are you so greedy? Who doesn't want a wise man to assist them? If I were to kidnap you, I would kidnap you."
