In the living room of the Chen Mansion, Li Ru was accompanied by a slightly immature young man, his brows furrowed slightly.

At the door of the living room, there were several dead men dressed in black, standing tightly in place.

The young man came to an unfamiliar position, but he seemed to be a little cramped and uneasy, and looked at the living room with some curiosity with his big black and white eyes.

"Stomp, stomp!"

A rush of footsteps sounded, but Wen Zhao came to the house in disheveled clothes.

From afar, he shouted loudly: "Wen You, but you invited Mr. Zhuge over?" ”

Li Ru saw that his father-in-law's shoes were worn backwards, and he could imagine how anxious Wen Zhao was after hearing the news of Zhuge Liang's arrival, and wanted to come out to meet him.

"This Zhuge Liang is not famous, and he can't see any talent, how can he be worthy of the lord's welcome?"

Although there were some doubts in his heart, Li Ru still didn't dare to say it, so he just got up and saluted: "Lord Qiqi, someone sent someone out, and it lasted more than two months, so he lived up to his mission and invited Mr. Zhuge over." ”

When Wen Zhao heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and couldn't help but stop his eyes on the strange boy.

Just after seeing this person, Wen Zhao felt as if something was wrong, and secretly thought in his heart: "This person looks like he is only about sixteen years old, Zhuge Liang shouldn't be so young, right?" ”

"Moreover, the history books record that Zhuge Liang is extremely tall and has a great appearance, this person is obviously different from the record."

Although Wen Zhao didn't remember what year Zhuge Liang was born, but now that even Sima Yi is in his twenties, how can Zhuge Liang be only sixteen years old?

Although there were some doubts in his heart, Wen Zhao still came to the young man's side, took a long look, and said, "I don't know if Your Excellency is Langya Zhuge Liang?" ”

The current Zhuge Liang seems to have not reached the crown, so Wen Zhao did not mention his cousin Kong Ming.

The young man had long known who had invited him over, and when Li Ru saluted Wen Zhao, the young man knew that the burly and majestic man in front of him was the world-famous general Chen Xu.

At this time, he suddenly saw that the general of the dynasty actually saluted him, and the young man immediately panicked.

He hurriedly returned the salute: "Mr. Zhuge is the master of my family, and the villain is just a scholar next to the master." ”

When Li Ru and the dead man at the door heard this, their faces immediately changed greatly, and Wen Zhao's smile froze on their faces.

Li Ru's face was extremely gloomy, he didn't expect that the dead soldier he had trained for a long time would make such a big mistake in the first dispatch, and he couldn't help but feel angry.

He suddenly turned around and stared at the young man tightly, and said, "I just asked who you are, but why do you say that you are Zhuge Liang?" ”

Several dead soldiers at the door also looked at the young man with murderous intent on their faces.

The first time they went on a mission, it would be a shame to be tricked like this. Such a shameful humiliation, even if it is more unacceptable than their death in Xiangyang.

The young man felt the hostility of the crowd, his face was terrified, and he knelt on the ground and said, "The master once instructed that only after seeing the general can he reveal his identity. ”

"In this way, not only will I not be killed, but the general will give me gold and silk, and give me a gift out of the country. On the contrary, if you reveal your identity before meeting the general, you will surely bring disaster to yourself. ”

"Therefore, in front of several strong men and gentlemen, the villain will pretend to be his master."

Li Ru was even more angry when he heard this, suddenly pulled out the sword in his waist, pointed at the young man from afar, and shouted: "The thief deceives people too much, if I don't kill you today, where is the face?" ”

After speaking, he stabbed the boy with his sword.

Li Ru prides himself on being a wise and resourceful person, and often calculates others, but he didn't expect to be calculated by others today.

Although the first few people to be calculated were only his subordinates, Li Ru also felt ashamed and angry when he lost such a big face in front of his own lord.

When the young man saw that the scribe in front of him wanted to kill him, he immediately turned pale with fright.

"Boom!"

Even if Wen Zhao was in a hurry to go out, he would never leave his sword, which was a habit he had developed over the years. Wen Zhao suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist, blocking Li Ru's sword stabbing at the young man.

"We invited people to be guests, and since they didn't want to see each other, they also sent a scholar over. The visitor is a guest, how can Wen You snub the guest? ”

Hearing Wen Zhao's words, Li Rucai put away his sword and said, "It's me who took the liberty to invite Lord Haihan." ”

Those dead soldiers at the door, at this time, don't know that they have caught the wrong person, and they are really hopeless.

They knelt on the ground one after another and said, "If we fail to complete the task, please punish the lord." ”

Waving his hand, Wen Zhao said, "You guys go down first, I'll have a good chat with this little friend." ”

When the dead men heard this, they retreated in fear.

They were terrified, not because they were afraid of death, but because they felt a little guilty that they had not completed their task.

The reason why the dead are called dead soldiers is that they are loyal, not afraid of death, and are willing to give up their lives at any time in order to achieve their goals.

For the dead, the task, as well as the orders of the master, is above all else.

After seeing the dead retreat, Wen Zhaocai stepped forward to help the young scholar and said in a harmonious voice: "Please sit down first!" ”

The young scholar sat down a little helplessly, and Wen Zhao saw that he was dressed relatively thinly, so he immediately took off his coat and draped it over the young man.

The young man felt the temperature inside his coat, and a warm current and a sweet spring suddenly flowed through his heart.

"General Xie."

After motioning for Li Ru to sit down, Wen Zhao asked the young scholar with great interest: "Can you tell me how your husband found out about those people and made them mistakenly think that you are Zhuge Liang?" ”

When the young man heard the name of his master, he immediately raised his head with some pride and told the cause and effect of the incident.

It turned out that although Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion in Longzhong and cultivated the fields, he was not without the slightest defense.

Zhuge Liang's learning was very complicated, and he set traps everywhere in the mountain. Of course, this mechanism is not fatal, and it can't even hurt people.

Most of the role of the agency is to trap people or give early warning.

After those dead soldiers broke into Zhuge Liang's territory, they were trapped in a pile of stone formations from the beginning, and Zhuge Liang observed for a long time and actually gained insight into the identities of these people.

Zhuge Liang's current understanding of the Eight Array Diagram has not yet reached the point of perfection, and he cannot trap those dead soldiers for a long time.

Even if he took advantage of that time to escape, I am afraid that sooner or later he will be overtaken.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang called his scholar, the two changed their clothes, and asked the young scholar to pretend to be himself.

The scholar has followed Zhuge Liang for many years, and he knows Zhuge Liang's way of speaking very well, and he has no pressure to dress up Zhuge Liang at all.

In this way, Zhuge Liang left the scholar at home, but he himself left quietly.

After the dead soldiers got out of trouble, they naturally took it for granted that the young scholar was arrested as Zhuge Liang.
