We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

"It's...that kind of...gurgling sound..."

Seeing Xi Yu looking at him with a half-smile but not a smile, Zhuge Liang didn't know how to talk clearly.

"Sir, it's just that kind of weird sound. I don't know much about it...ahem..."

Zhuge Liang suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Hearing this, Xi Yu unconsciously began to guess what was going on...

Suddenly, Xi Yu's heart tightened: Could it be that Lu Bu's fellow was resurrected? ! After thinking about Zhuge Liang's words carefully, I felt that there were some guesses in my mind, which was strange...

In this way, wouldn't it be that the ghost Lu Bu is even more terrifying?

Lu Bu was beheaded by his own hands. What's more, he brought Diao Chan and Lu Lingqi back to Xuzhou. It would be extremely dangerous to return to Xuzhou to seek revenge!

Xi Yu stood up and said to Zhuge Liang in a deep voice, "Arrange the manpower and follow me to find out."

Zhuge Liang immediately stopped him and said, "No, sir, this is absolutely impossible!"

"Sir, the last time you went into battle to kill the enemy in person, it was already very dangerous!"

Zhuge Liang was very worried and said, "My lord, now you are the backbone of Xuzhou. You must not take risks at will. If something goes wrong, what will Xuzhou do? How will we explain to the Prime Minister?!"

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Xi Yu was very surprised and thought to himself: This change is unexpected.

Thinking back to the time when he was hiding in dangerous places, he never thought that his subordinates would now prevent him from going to dangerous places.

"What's the danger? Lu Bu, who is known as the God of War, will be killed by me, too?" Xi Yu said disapprovingly.

But Zhuge Liang still discouraged Xi Yu from going there. He knew that the place was very weird and surprising, and he really didn't dare to let Xi Yu go and risk it.

But for Xi Yu, he already had an idea in mind: Lu Bu could not be resurrected from the dead, after all, Lu Bu had already been buried.

Xi Yu just wanted to go and find out what happened this time. He needed to find out what the cause was so as not to cause unnecessary panic to the local people.

Xi Yu patted Zhuge Liang on the shoulder and said, "Kong Ming, you don't need to worry. Someone as strong as Lu Bu will die in my hands. There will be no danger here."

"But, sir, how powerful is Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu? In the end..."

Zhuge Liang also wanted to dissuade Xi Yu.

"Xiang Yu, that reckless man, decided on his own. What nonsense are you talking about?" Xi Yu was unmoved and said firmly, "Let's go, come with me to see what happens. I'm here, Kong Ming, you don't have to be afraid."

Outside the city of Xuzhou, close to the peninsula, there is a mountain range called Dongdang Mountain. There are lush bamboo forests in the mountain. Most of the local people live in bamboo houses at the foot of the mountain, and their occupation is logging, and they can also catch fish to survive.

There are many farming fields around the village. In the middle of the fields is a main road, which is the only way to the village. Behind the village is the road to the mountains.

In the village, every household raises pigs, dogs and sheep. All kinds of crops are growing very well this year, and the livestock are also growing very well, especially the domestic pigs, which are very fat.

But recently, strange things have happened on the mountain, which has made the local people very worried and panicked.

Soon, Xi Yu came to the village with Dian Wei and hundreds of guards, and Zhuge Liang went with Guo Jia.

After a group of people had a delicious meal in the village, Xi Yu took them up the mountain. In a short time, they arrived at the place filled with white mist.

It's still winter and it's still cold in the mountains.

Xi Yu was wearing a special large cotton-padded jacket. The cold wind was blowing by, and the mink velvet on the cotton-padded jacket was fluttering in the wind. After some inspection, Xi Yu looked at Zhuge Liang and others, "This is the weird place you mentioned." ?”

Hearing this, a villager immediately ran over and said, "Yes, sir, listen, the grunting sound keeps coming, as if something terrible is roaring. It's really scary..."

Xi Yu's face darkened and he thought to himself: This is a hot spring. However, it is normal for people in this world not to understand hot springs.

Xi Yu came to the place where the spring water emerged and leaned over to observe carefully. At this moment, layers of hot air were constantly blowing out of the water, blowing from the feet to the top of the head. Xi Yu only felt warm and comfortable all over his body.

"The sun is so warm, dig it for me!"

Xi Yu stretched out his hand to explore the hot spring water, then immediately turned around and ordered.

However, compared with Xi Yu's calmness and composure, Guo Jia and others immediately panicked when they heard Xi Yu's words. Dian Wei and several guards had quick eyesight and quick hands, and immediately stepped forward to surround Xi Yu, preparing to pull him away from this place immediately. A dangerous place.

"Sir, be careful, take your hand back quickly!"

"Sir, you are a noble person, how can you be so careless? What should you do if something goes wrong!"

Xi Yu suddenly became displeased, "How can you use your noble body on me? Who dares to talk nonsense?!"

"Sir, you are the lord of us and even the people of Xuzhou, so of course your status is noble!"

Zhuge Liang was even more frightened and said, "My lord is the son of a rich man. If you get even the slightest bit of damage, it will be a loss to us and even Xuzhou!"

"My lord, if you insist on exploring that weird thing, just leave the matter to General Dian Weidian. You must not take the risk yourself!"

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Dian Wei's face suddenly stiffened. He looked at Zhuge Liang and thought to himself: Is Dian Wei's life not my life? Why don't you reach out and test it yourself? !

Seeing that Zhuge Liang and others were really annoying, but also worried about his safety, Xi Yu didn't bother to explain to these people who didn't understand what the hot spring was, and immediately said, "This place is indeed the habitat of monsters."

"This is a fiery demon. Its body can heat up the entire mountain. I'm afraid that in a few days, the entire mountain will collapse. If it is not protected, I'm afraid that all nearby villagers will be killed."

Xi Yu said seriously.

Several villagers suddenly panicked and were very frightened. Several people gathered together and whispered something.

"What a blessing. I never expected that there would be something evil in Xuzhou!"

"Yeah, luckily it was discovered in time, otherwise, our village would have been destroyed!"

"Everything in the world is really full of wonders. I didn't expect this great talent to be so knowledgeable and powerful. He even knows about monsters."

At this time, Guo Jia, dressed in black, looked at Xi Yu suspiciously. He was older than Zhuge Liang, he was careful and steady, and he would think more about everything.

After all, Zhuge Liang was still young, had great talents, and was also familiar with metaphysics, which included the art of Feng Shui, and he also knew a little bit about it.

Zhuge Liang immediately said, "This place has a bad feng shui, and it is indeed easy for evil things to appear."

Xi Yu glanced at Zhuge Liang and said calmly, "However, the solution is not difficult."

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he immediately looked at Xi Yu and was slightly shocked: Can the evil thing in the fierce place be broken?

"Sir, Feng Shui is completely natural, how to crack it?" Zhuge Liang asked in confusion.

He once remembered that ancient books said that if you want to break the Feng Shui and set up a formation, you must know the way of the formation.

Xi Yu looked at Zhuge Liang and smiled lightly, "Feng shui is a dead thing, but people are flexible."

"Everything in the world, such as Feng Shui, will change due to people. The so-called seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is human nature. Once people change, Feng Shui will naturally change accordingly."

"Kong Ming, you just need to wait for my plan to act."

Xi Yu said to Dian Wei again, "Dian Wei, starting immediately, you immediately order people to dig day and night to expand the area of ​​​​the spring."

"Here!"

Dian Wei was not afraid of heaven and earth, not to mention that he never believed in ghosts and gods.

In fact, not many people believe in the theory of ghosts and gods. Because of this, when Zhuge Liang later gained a deeper understanding of astronomical phenomena and geography, he was able to judge weather changes.

It is precisely because of this that Zhuge Liang is considered to be "so intelligent that he is almost a monster."

But in fact, he just knows more than others and is much smarter.

In this regard, Guo Jia is indeed inferior to Zhuge Liang.

Xi Yu sighed a little, "Unfortunately, Wen He is not here. If he were here, he could design the drawings on the spot."

"Sir, am I here?!"

Jia Xu was surprised.

He had been standing in the queue, but because he was hungry, he was eating pancakes with his head down, but he never wanted to hear Xi Yu sigh that he was not here.

"What?! Wenhe, are you here?!"

Xi Yu exclaimed and looked back at the team. When he saw Jia Xu, he was slightly unhappy and said, "Wen He, you should stand in sync with Kong Ming's Fengxiao. How can you be in the team?!"

"Sir, I'm really hungry..."

Jia Xu didn't show off as a scholar at all. In his early years, he followed the Xiliang people, and he had the habit of eating dry food at any time. Especially after Xi Yu improved the method of making dry food, Jia Xu liked to eat dry food even more.

"Jia Xu, come here to me." Xi Yu said.

"good."

Jia Xu immediately put away the pancakes that he had not finished eating, and then jogged to Xi Yu, squatting with Xi Yu on the bank of the spring. After discussing for a long time, he probably knew what Xi Yu planned.

"Sir, do you mean to build a large courtyard here?"

"It's not a courtyard, it's an open-air villa!"

Xi Yu affirmed, "Spring is coming soon. If we delay it until summer, it will be meaningless. This matter needs to be resolved quickly. We must seize the time!"

"Yeah, I got it……"

Jia Xu wrote down the key points of all aspects that Xi Yu said before, and then followed Xi Yu to lead the soldiers back to Xiapi. After returning, Jia Xu spent sleep and food in the design institute and quickly arranged construction matters.

Today, there are nearly 6,000 major craftsmen in Xiapi City.

Jia Xu delegated the construction matter to the school. When Pang Tong, a teacher at the Institute of Engineering, heard about it, he was very interested, "Is it really a strange place? You want to build an evil-suppressing villa here?"

Jia Xu nodded in agreement.

"Since it is truly a God-given place, we can use the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams to control the good and bad fortunes and suppress them."

"It's just that although the yin and yang energy is difficult to reconcile, it is not difficult to stabilize it."

Pang Tong knew the art of yin and yang, so he immediately "burned the midnight oil and fought at night". After two days and two nights of busy work, he personally designed a mountain villa with the village as the entrance and exit to suppress the monsters in the mountain and turn evil things into auspiciousness.

In this way, Xiapi will be more prosperous and wealthy.

After completing the design drawing, Pang Tong handed it over to Jia Xu with confidence.

The next day, Pang Tong's design drawing of the villa was placed on Xiyu's desk.

Xi Yu played Landlords with Zhen Mi and Queen Guo all night last night. He can't remember what he did until the end. All in all, it was wonderful.

Xi Yu didn't get up until noon. When he saw Pang Tong's design, he was very satisfied and shook his head frequently.

Seeing this, Jia Xu suddenly felt bad: Looking at this posture, your lord is very disappointed with Pang Tong's design. He asked carefully, "Sir, if this design is not to your liking, I will reject it immediately."

Xi Yu suddenly said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by dissatisfaction? This is just too much for me!"

"I really didn't expect that Pang Tong was born to be an engineer!"

"Sir, what...master...what materials..."

Jia Xu was suddenly confused.

After all, in his opinion, anyone who adds the word "teacher" must have a good status.

…

Early 200 years.

At the beginning of spring, the construction of the villa on Dongdang Mountain was completed. It was called the Yangsheng Villa. The courtyard was huge. Dianwei and three hundred soldiers followed Xi Yu's arrangements and dug a total of 25 pools.

But the water in the pool is very warm and clear.

The two miraculous doctors Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo from the medical hall also got up to take a look. Then according to Xi Yu's instructions, they sprinkled medicinal materials into the drinking water, and the water was called "soup".

According to Xiyu, after the medicinal materials in the soup are blended, the auspicious aura dissipates, and the evil spirits in the water have nowhere to hide. At the same time, if the human body is soaked in this soup, the exhaustion and evil spirits in the body are dispelled, and even more Refreshing.

Although the two old miracle doctors didn't know whether Xi Yu's words were credible, Xi Yu had created many rises after all, so the two thought to just let Xi Yu go. Anyway, the medicinal materials added were not harmful to the human body.

In this regard, this health-preserving villa is located in a bamboo forest, like a paradise, and Xi Yu has sent heavy troops to guard it.

Soon, rumors about the Health Villa spread throughout Xiapi City, and the Confucian scholars naturally heard about it. Although they were surprised, none of them believed that there was anything weird in it.

After all, Confucianism teaches them: Zi is silent, strange, powerful, chaotic, and divine.

However, the people believed this very much.

They believe in destiny, natural and man-made disasters, and naturally believe in ghosts and gods.

What's more, a master of opera once said, "The fact that you are silent does not mean that you don't believe!"

Such a simple sentence from Xi Yu made the Confucian scholars ponder for a long time: they deeply felt that Master Xi was profound in knowledge, and the reason why Zi was silent did not mean that he did not believe it.

To put it another way, perhaps it was precisely because Zi firmly believed in this that he remained silent.

No matter what Confucian scholars and the common people think about this, in less than a month, this health-preserving villa has spread throughout the streets and alleys, and it has become a hot topic among everyone.

Many people even praised Xi Yu for his bottomless knowledge and for being a benevolent gentleman who made sacrifices for the people's livelihood...

On this day, Xi Yu took all the women, clothes, and utensils in seven cars, and the group wanted to go to the Health Villa.

But as soon as Xiyu and his party arrived at the east entrance of Xiapi City, they saw the people of the outer city and the inner city, and many foreign Confucian scholars were waiting around the city gate. They just wanted to dissuade Xiyu from going to the Health Villa and brought them with them The family members put themselves in danger.

When Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia and others saw Xi Yu, they all tried hard to dissuade him, "Sir, you must not go to the Health Villa. This is absolutely inappropriate!"

"If this matter is really related to Feng Shui and destiny, wouldn't you have to sacrifice your whole family..."

"Kong Ming, I know your good intentions, but I have made up my mind, you don't need to say any more!" Xi Yu said in a deep voice.

Xi Yu stood on the carriage and looked at the huge crowd around him, including common people and Confucian scholars. Xi Yu was quite moved and said solemnly, clasping his fists, "Everyone, I, Xi Yu, am Xuzhou Mu, the military advisor and general of the Han Dynasty!"

"As your parents and officials, I naturally have to take the lead in suppressing evil and driving away monsters. I must not let you live in fear and danger!"

"The fiery demon on the mountain is so evil that only my meritorious body can suppress it and eliminate it!"

Xi Yu's expression was firm and his tone was decisive, "Wait for me to suppress the demons and eradicate the evil spirits, for Xuzhou and for the great man, in order to bring auspiciousness!"

"Thank you for your love, I'll go right away!"

After saying that, Xiyu got into the carriage and ordered the driver, "Get up and go!"

Xi Yu even thought to himself: A group of people who don't understand hot springs, I'll just go and soak in a hot spring and get into such a big fight and mobilize the troops!

It’s true that those who don’t know are not guilty, what’s the fuss about…

Xi Yu's motorcade headed out of the city in a mighty manner, and some of the people couldn't help crying, worried about the safety of Xi Yu's family.

Touched, hysterically grateful.

"Master Xi is really the father-in-law of the people of Xuzhou, a great benefactor!"

"Master Xi is truly a benevolent person, and we are so impressed by him!"

Chen Deng and other members of the gentry class who were dissatisfied with Xi Yu now felt deeply ashamed and decided not to accept Xi Yu.

Many Confucian scholars from all over the world, such as Huang Chengyan, Qiao Gong, Gao Shuang and others, were impressed by Xi Yu's noble character of loving the people.

Nowadays, Xi Yu is like an ancient sage in their eyes.

"Xi Yu is a very good person."

Mr. Qiao stood among the crowd, stroking his beard and nodding slightly in approval.

Duke Qiao's expression of satisfaction was palpable, but no one knew what he was thinking.

At this time, Huang Chengyan came over and asked, "Mr. Qiao, when I see your expression, could it be that you want to marry your daughter?"

"Huh? Haha, in that case, Mr. Huang, do you also have this intention?"

Huang Chengyan immediately shook his head and smiled bitterly, "How dare I have such intention? Haha, it's not that there is no one in my family, we are just quite knowledgeable."

Mr. Qiao smiled faintly, "My little daughter's talent and learning cannot be compared with Huang Gong's daughter, but my daughter's music is acceptable and is no different from the music of nature."

"Really? Haha, my A Chou is as good as a woman of heavenly craftsmanship. She should be able to help Mr. Xi develop military weapons!"

"Oh, my little girl can sing and dance for the adults and relieve their worries!!"

"Here, my A Chou is okay..."

For a while, Mr. Qiao and Huang Chengyan started talking.

"Hey, gentlemen, why are you..."

Seeing that the two old men seemed to be about to quarrel, someone else immediately tried to persuade them.

Huang Chengyan quickly smiled and said, "Haha, it's just a joke. It's nothing. I'm just discussing it with Mr. Qiao..."

"Yes, I was just joking with Huang Gong..." Qiao Gong also said with a smile.

At this time, Xiyu's carriage had disappeared without a trace.

…

At this time, it was already noon. Outside the entrance of the Health Villa, Dian Wei stood as still as an iron tower, not daring to slack off at all.

Xi Yu's motorcade arrived at the entrance of the Health Villa. Xi Yu stuck his head out of the car and looked around before getting out of the car.

Seeing Xi Yu coming, Dian Wei immediately jogged to greet him.

The first few carriages were filled with Xiyu's family and daily necessities. The last carriage was filled with Lu Lingqi and Diao Chan...
