Chapter 969 - Hide Your Identity
Xiangyang City, fifteen kilometers southeast.
The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, and it is the famous mountain Lumen Mountain in Jingzhou.
In the past, when Pang Degong and Sima Hui lived in Lumen Mountain, there was no white ding in the mountain, all of them were famous Confucian scholars, lively and extraordinary, very famous, and it was a veritable Xiangyang holy land.
However, Sima Hui and Pang Degong moved into Chengdu, and many Confucians also left.
At the same time, the two were also labeled as defecting to the enemy by Liu Biao.
Many people were afraid of Liu Biao's might, so they drew a clear line with Sima Hui and Pang Degong, and no longer went to Lumen Mountain. As a result, Lumen Mountain became deserted and became uncared for. Not only that, the grass house where Pang Degong and Sima Hui lived in the past was overgrown with weeds and messy, without any of its former demeanor.
Shi A sent people to find out the situation in Lumen Mountain, and Wang Can settled in Lumen Mountain.
However, Wang Can did not choose the thatched hut where Pang Degong and Sima Hui lived in the past, and built a thatched hut in the mountains and forests.
Only in this way can we ensure that no trace is found and our own safety is guaranteed.
After Wang Can settled in the mountains, he methodically prepared the list of contacts to be contacted, and the first one was Huang Chengyan. Because this person is not an official in the officialdom, he seems to be an idle cloud and a wild crane, but he has a certain amount of energy in Xiangyang. Moreover, Huang Yueying is in Chengdu, and with this relationship, Wang Can set his goal on Huang Chengyan and wants to start with Huang Chengyan.
"Sand! Sand! ”
Outside the thatched house, there was a sound of rustling.
Shi A hurriedly walked in, clenched his fists and said, "Lord, the person who is lurking at the bottom of the mountain to listen to the news has sent back the news that Huang Chengyan has entered Lumen Mountain and is wandering in the mountain. ”
Wang Can immediately asked, "Is there anyone else around Huang Chengyan?" ”
Shi Ah replied, "There is only one person." ”
Wang Can said, "You bring him up, and I will see him." ”
Shi A had already thought of this in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Lord, it is better to let the humble post see him for you." We hid well in Lumen Mountain, although our whereabouts were hidden and no one knew about them, so we were relatively safe. But Huang Chengyan knows that you have come to Jingzhou in person, and you have an insider, in case Huang Chengyan leaks the news, it will be not good for us. ”
Wang Can shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I have already prepared." ”
As he spoke, Wang Can picked up a ghost mask from under the desk and put it on his face, only his eyes were exposed, and the rest of the place was covered and could not be distinguished. At the same time, Wang Can was not wearing a brocade dress produced in Yizhou, but a linen robe worn by ordinary people in Jingzhou, making him seem to be a person living in Jingzhou.
It's hard to tell the difference in such a costume.
Shi Ah scratched his head and said with a smile: "If you had said it earlier, you wouldn't have to worry so much." ”
Wang Can smiled and waved his hand to ask Shi A to invite someone.
Shi Ah turned around and left the grass hut and quickly disappeared into the mountain forest.
Huang Chengyan wandered slowly in the mountains and forests alone, leisurely. Although the news received was that he came to Lumen Mountain to meet people, Huang Chengyan didn't know how to contact him at all. If it was really someone from Yizhou, he would definitely take the initiative to come to him, so Huang Chengyan was not in a hurry at all, and let go of his mind to appreciate the grass and trees in the mountains and forests that sprouted.
Winter has turned to spring, and Lumen Mountain has begun to bloom with vitality.
Every grass and tree is vivid and lively.
At this time, it is a good time to go on a tour with friends.
After he entered the mountain, he walked for most of the hour, and he had gone deep into Lumen Mountain. Suddenly, Huang Chengyan's ears moved, and he heard the sound of Xixi's soo behind him, and he knew that the person who should come finally came.
He had just turned around when he saw the man approaching.
"Ah!!h
Rao is Huang Chengyan had already prepared in his heart, and he was also taken a big jump.
"Whew! Call! ”
Huang Chengyan took a few long breaths to stabilize his restless mood.
Shi Ah arched his hand and said, "Mr. Huang is polite!" ”
Huang Chengyan asked directly: "Are you from Chengdu?" What's the matter with me? Although Huang Chengyan was a little surprised for a short time, he quickly regained his composure without the slightest panic.
Shi Ah shook his head and said, "I'm just passing the word, I don't know the situation." ”
As he spoke, Shi Ah took out a black strip of cloth from his cuff, which was very thick, and he couldn't see clearly after covering his eyes.
Seeing this, the corners of Huang Chengyan's mouth rose, and he sneered: "It's really complicated, although this Lumen Mountain is very big, if you want to search it, it's not that you can't search it." If the army is approaching, do you really think it is useful to cover your eyes? ”
Shi A said calmly: "Mr. Huang, I only believe in what I do. ”
As he spoke, Shi Ah covered Huang Chengyan's eyes with a black cloth and took Huang Chengyan to the mountains.
Where the two passed by, they left footprints, but after walking for I don't know how long, someone came out from behind and eliminated the footprints left by the two, leaving no traces. As Huang Chengyan said, Lumen Mountain is only so big, and if the army comes, it will not be easy to hide the traces.
It's just that Lumonsan Mountain and Dahyeon Mountain stand opposite each other across the Han River, and with Dahyeon Mountain next to it, the difficulty immediately increases. It can be hidden in Lumen Mountain or Da Hyeon Mountain, making it difficult to search.
The two kept turning and detouring for a long time before stopping.
Shi A took Huang Chengyan to the outside of the grass house, and only then did he remove the strip of cloth that covered Huang Chengyan's eyes.
"My lord, Mr. Huang has arrived."
After finishing speaking, Shi Ah waved his hand and motioned for Huang Chengyan to enter the house. Wang Can heard Shi A's title and secretly praised Shi A's cleverness, at this time, it was obvious that he had to change his title, otherwise his identity would be easily exposed.
Wang Can was wearing a ghost mask and a thick linen robe, which he couldn't recognize at all.
"Sit!"
Wang Can waved his hand and motioned for Huang Chengyan to sit down.
He deliberately changed his voice to appear very low, different from the original voice.
Huang Chengyan casually lifted his robe and sat down, staring at Wang Can with his eyes like knives, as if he wanted to see through Wang Can's identity through the mask. It's just that Wang Can sat cross-legged, motionless, as if he was a stubborn stone that had undergone wind and frost and remained unchanged, without the slightest change. Huang Chengyan wanted to find out about the situation, but he found nothing
After a long time, Huang Chengyan sighed slightly and asked, "How is Yueying?" ”
Wang Can raised his eyebrows, and almost blurted out that it was very good.
But when he opened his mouth, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. He is now just a person who stayed in Xiangyang to listen to the situation, and he did not go to Chengdu, and he did not know Huang Yueying's recent situation.
If he answers, doesn't he reveal a hint of information?
Wang Can's mind turned, and he quickly thought of a strategy for how to deal with it, and immediately lowered his voice and said slowly; "Miss Huang's letter was delivered to Mr. Huang yesterday, you should know the situation!"
Huang Chengyan dusted off his robe and said with a smile: "The family letter is only one page, the situation is too little, you can tell me in detail." ”
Wang Can saw that Huang Chengyan was still tempting, and said, "Mr. Huang, if you want to know Miss Huang's situation, I can arrange for you to take your family to Chengdu, what do you think?" As for me being just a small leader in charge of Xiangyang's affairs, if you ask me, I don't know anything. ”
Huang Chengyan smiled and asked, "Say, what's the matter with me?" ”
At this time, Huang Chengyan no longer mentioned Huang Yueying's matter.
Wang Can secretly said that although Huang Chengyan does not ask about the world, he is not unfamiliar with the world, on the contrary, Huang Chengyan is thoughtful, the city is very deep, and he is definitely a very cunning old fox.
Wang Can opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Huang, I said that I am the person in charge of Xiangyang's affairs, you should understand the meaning, right?" ”
Huang Chengyan looked dazed, shook his head and said, "I don't understand!" I don't understand! ”
Wang Can secretly scolded Huang Chengyan for being an old thief, and said, "Mr. Huang, then I will be blunt." Now that my lord is raising troops to attack Chu, the army is coming, and the country of Chu is in danger, I don't know what Mr. Huang thinks? ”
Huang Chengyan flicked his sleeves and said loudly: "The Chu army will win, and the Shu army will be defeated!" ”
"Hahaha......"
Wang Can suddenly burst out laughing, the laughter was very weird, very sharp, and very ugly.
Immediately, Wang Can kept shaking his head and said, "This is the funniest joke I've ever heard, it's really laughing to death." Mr. Huang is a famous man in Jingxiang and has great intelligence, but he said against his will that the Chu army will win and the Shu army will be defeated, is it funny? Do you want me to send someone to captivate a few people to ask them if they think the Shu army will win, or the Chu army will win? ”
When Huang Chengyan heard this, a trace of embarrassment flashed in his eyes, and he calmed down again in an instant.
Of course he knows the situation of the two armies of Chu and Shu.
It's just that Huang Chengyan knows that others have other requests, so of course he can speak at will.
Wang Can saw that Huang Chengyan had not let go, and said straight to the point: "Mr. Huang is a famous man in Jingzhou, and he will definitely be able to judge the current situation, the Shu army will win, and the Chu army will be defeated." That being the case, why didn't Mr. Huang plan ahead for the Huang family? As long as the Shu army enters Xiangyang, the Huang family can also get a piece of the pie! ”
Huang Chengyan shook his head and said; "It is a fact that the Chu army is indeed defeated by the Shu army, and the old man also admits it. However, this time, the Shu army could not win and could not take Jingzhou. ”
Wang Can's eyes widened, and his heart suddenly slammed.
Huang Chengyan's tone was completely different from before, and it was a heartfelt thought.
Could it be that there is still a cat in it?
