However, these words were a bit too arrogant. Immediately, an aide of the Sun family stood up and scolded:
"Bold! Your Majesty, the real dragon emperor, how could he disappear! You cursed the emperor, what should you do!"

Zhuge Liang looked at the old Confucian scholar who jumped out to accuse him speechlessly, and asked him:
"What is a real dragon emperor? If the emperor is a real dragon, then why did the first emperor die? Why did Gao Zu die? Could it be that I cursed him too?"

"Kong Ming didn't know that he had such an ability to kill people with curses."

"You, you, you are eloquent!"

Unable to find a reason to refute, the old Confucian scholar could only launch a personal attack, saying that Zhuge Liang was sophistry.

Zhuge Liang was too lazy to answer him, he looked at Sun Quan, wanting to test his thoughts.

But Sun Quan asked about Xu Mei's coming from Jiaozhou.

"The road to Lingnan is full of mountains and mountains. I don't know which road the two envoys are taking?"

Zhuge Liang looked back at Xu Mei.

Xu Mei replied: "The nearest way is to pass miasma when encountering miasma, overturning mountains when encountering mountains, and crossing water when encountering water."

This is true.

Sun Quan and the others didn't quite believe it.

Instead, I felt that Xu Mei deliberately didn't want to tell the real route.

Only Lu Xun and Zhou Yu began to look at Xu Mei again.

However, she was about 1.6 meters tall, with a well-proportioned figure, and her complexion was different from the fair and delicate skin of ordinary housewives. The whole body was like wheat, revealing a healthy luster.

The two exposed arms look slender, but they can reveal tight muscle lines with a light grip on the chopsticks.

These hands are very powerful!

"The fastest route from Jiaozhou to Yangzhou must pass through a natural moat. The cliff is [-] feet high. During the period, there is nowhere to stay. The strange rocks are jagged. Dare I ask the messenger how to cross it?" Zhou Yu asked curiously.

Sun Quan also looked over, trying to judge from this answer whether Xu Mei was lying.

Zhuge Liang knows this question.

He thought of the thrill and inconceivability of this high cliff, and now he couldn't help but gasp.

Seeing Zhuge Liang's eagerness to try, Xu Mei motioned him to speak.

Zhuge Liang stretched out his arms and said, "Climbing down the cliff with a rope, the rope is still in place at this moment. If you are interested, you can take it to me when we return, and you can go and have a look."

"Rope climbing?" Zhou Yu still didn't understand how a person could stand on a smooth cliff.

What's more, the fifty-foot-high hemp rope is extremely heavy. Do Xu Mei and Zhuge Liang have to carry a large bundle of hemp rope when they are on their way?
Obviously not so.

Zhuge Liang smiled and described, "The rope is not hemp rope, but made of light steel, but the thickness of the little finger is thin, and there is only a small roll of fifty feet, less than twenty catties."

Hearing this, the whole hall was shocked.

Don't look at it as just a small steel cable, considering the current forging technology, Wu Jun can't even make half of it.

Even if there is, it is a treasure-level weapon that can only be distributed to the most powerful warriors.

But Xu Mei and Zhuge Liang directly hung the rope on the cliff and didn't bring it back.

Of course, they had already descended and could not pull the rope down.

Surprised by Xu Jiajun's forging strength, Zhou Yu asked curiously, "I've been to that cliff in person. Only the 30-meter section has footholds. How do you stand on the rest of the cliff?"

Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang proudly puffed up his chest, looked at Xu Mei in admiration and said:
"Xu Mei has a unique rock climbing technique, and she doesn't pay attention to it at all."

"Even with me as a grown man, I can still descend fifty feet."

As soon as the words came out, the staff shook their heads again to express their disbelief.

Bragging is not seen so bragging!

Xu Mei sneered, and couldn't help but say, "You haven't seen it, but it doesn't mean you haven't."

Then, he looked up at the roof of the main hall, and shook his head in disgust, "This hall is too short, if you don't believe me, come out with me!"

After speaking, he got up and walked outside.

Without saying a word, Lu Xun hurriedly rushed out.

Zhou Yu followed closely behind.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Quan led a group of staff and surrounded them.

Xu Mei stood still in the courtyard, her eyes searched around, and finally her eyes settled on the attic to the north.

"That's Miss Axiang's boudoir." Lu Xun reminded.

Xu Mei glanced at him and smiled gratefully.

She had already discovered that this young man was very kind to herself.

Xu Mei took a deep breath, bent her knees on the spot, and made a starting posture.

Outsiders couldn't understand it, and the staff members thought it was funny, and they all raised their hands to cover their mouths and sniggered.

Zhuge Liang glanced over coldly, and the group of old Confucians restrained themselves.

However, he couldn't hide the joke in his eyes.

Xu Mei snorted disdainfully in her heart, and thought to herself, she must give these old Confucians a hard look.

Thinking in this way, his sharp eyes suddenly swept across the group of old men, and then selected the old man who was hesitant to talk to him before, and rushed over with a brisk stride.

Immediately afterwards, with long arms all over his body, under the astonished eyes of everyone, he directly picked up the old man and threw him directly on the eaves.

And she herself, like a cat, climbed up to the roof in a few strokes with the help of the pillars in the porch, and then, the old Confucian scholar screamed in horror.

He was carried on Xu Mei's shoulders, jumping and moving all the way, but after a while, when everyone searched for them again, the two had already appeared on the roof of the north attic.

Xu Mei put the old Confucian scholar on the roof and jumped off the roof.

After a few more breaths, Xu Mei returned to the crowd.

In the complicated and tortuous Jiangnan house, she felt like she was walking on flat ground.

I just felt sorry for the old Confucian student, lying alone on the roof of the high attic, angry and scared, he didn't care about Confucian etiquette, and cursed at Xu Mei.

Xu Mei pretended she couldn't hear, patted the messed up clothes, and said with a sneer:
"Come down and scold if you have the ability, but shut up if you don't!"

The old Confucian scholar had never been insulted like this before, Dang even was so angry that he couldn't get up, and passed out on the roof of the attic.

"who?!"

A terrified woman shouted and asked from the attic.

The attic window, which is usually never opened, was wide open, and a young woman in men's clothes poked her head out of the window.

The attic is on a high terrain, and you can see the front of the main hall at a glance.

I saw my elder brother leading a group of people standing in the yard, among them were two strangers who had never seen each other in strange clothes.

Suddenly, there was a calculation in my heart.

She looked up towards the roof and asked tentatively, "Who is on the roof?"

After a while, the old Confucian scholar who regained his strength cried and replied: "Miss, save the old minister!"

Miss didn't have time to react, the person Sun Quan sent to rescue had already arrived at the attic.

The ladder over the wall was erected, which can be regarded as bringing down the old Confucian scholar safely.

"Who are those two guests?" The lady asked the guard curiously.

The guard replied: "Miss Hui, she is an envoy sent by Xu Jiajun for peace talks."

After speaking, he helped the old Confucian scholar to leave.

The lady in the attic wanted to ask again, but she had to give up.

She looked towards the front of the main hall again, and everyone had already entered the main hall and couldn't see anything.
