Three Kingdoms Swept the World II

Chapter 758 Towards the direction of Yedu

"Who is the first to wake up from a big dream? I have known it all my life. The Caotang has enough sleep in spring, and the sun is late outside the window. Huh? Brother Shiyuan, when did you come?"

In the thatched cottage, a handsome young man stood up slowly, looking at the old man beside him in surprise.This young man is too elegant, and in future generations, he will overwhelm all the little fresh meat.

The boy at the side thought to himself: "My husband is so talented, he is friends with great sages such as Cui Zhouping, Shi Guangyuan, Meng Gongwei, but he is also friends with this ugly black boy. It's really weird."

Pang Tong turned his nose up and shook his head, "Kong Ming, it's already summer, and you don't change your words, it should be Caotang Xia taking a nap."

Zhuge Liang's handsome white face trembled for a while, he smiled awkwardly, fanned his fan and said, "Brother's words are as sharp as ever. In such a hot day, brother Shiyuan is not at home to escape the summer heat. Could it be that the house is too hot and he came to the suburbs to escape the summer heat?" Are you coming? Let's go to the Houtang for a swim first..."

Pang Tong laughed and said solemnly: "Brother Kong Ming, I'm going to leave as a brother, so I'm here to bid farewell to my virtuous brother."

"Where are you going, brother?" Zhuge Liang fanned his feather fan in surprise, and suddenly asked, "Could it be possible to go to Beijing to catch the exam?"

"As expected of Kong Ming, you can figure it out once you do the math." Pang Tong was more excited, and said again: "The imperial examination system of the Prime Minister is really great, and it gives opportunities to people with lofty ideals in the world."

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, nodded his forehead slightly, and said calmly: "This policy of governing the country is still reasonable. It is in line with the level that the prime minister has always been, and it is still above the level."

Pang Tong was dumbfounded, Zhuge Liang had many advantages, amazing talent and learning, but he also had shortcomings, that is, sometimes, he was particularly proud of his talents.You can't listen to anyone's arguments, and you have to argue to accept his arguments.Whenever there is a heated debate, it is like fighting.

"Kong Ming, you are wrong to say that. This is a policy that can change the times and give everyone a chance." Pang Tong said dissatisfied.

Zhuge nodded.

Pang Tong was dumbfounded again. He thought it was another debate, but Zhuge Liang agreed.Pang Tong was very happy. He knew that Zhuge Liang had the same ambition as him, which is why they became friends.Seeing that Zhuge Liang had nothing else to say, he couldn't help but ask, "Don't Kong Ming have any ideas?"

Zhuge Liang fanned his feather fan, smiled lightly, and said, "Brother Shiyuan, the imperial examinations have given ordinary people opportunities, but people like you and me are not among them. I advise my brother not to go to Beijing to catch up with the exams. With your reputation, we will definitely be able to do so in the future." Someone will come to invite you. If you go to take the exam like this, you will not be taken seriously. Youdao is the best in literature. If you fail the exam, it will be even more unbeautiful."

"We are on our own, so I told my elder brother about this, think about it carefully?" Zhuge Liang said, shaking his feather fan.

"Did you fail the exam?" Pang Tong turned his nose upside down and shook his head. Zhuge Liang looked confident at the moment, but he didn't want to be beaten. He had no choice but to say: "Since my virtuous brother is so confident, you can lie down in the thatched cottage. Someone will come to invite you in the future. Farewell to my brother."

"No..." Zhuge Liang sat on the bed in an even manner, without saying a word.

Ever since, Pang Tong went on the road, braving the wind and rain, wearing the stars and the moon.No matter how difficult the journey is, the blood in his heart cannot be wiped out.The closer he was to Yedu, the more he felt that his ambition in this life was about to be stretched.

And Zhuge Liang was still in Longzhong, chatting and drinking with Cui Zhouping, Shi Guangyuan, Meng Gongwei and other great sages every day.From governing the country to marching and deploying troops, they talk about everything.Whenever the debate gets heated, it looks like they have to fight.Zhuge Liang also taught the people farming and manufacturing. His reputation became more and more famous, and he was called Mr. Wolong.

On this day, Zhuge Liang came to Huang Chengyan's house and asked about machinery.

"Mr. Huang has gone north to rush for the exam?"

"Yes, Mr. Huang's family is gone."

Zhuge Liang was in a trance for a while, "When he becomes famous..."

Ever since, in the following days, Zhuge Liang worked harder and talked more and more.In the heated debate, it seems that the idea has been displayed in the world.

And in the mountains, an ugly young man braved the scorching heat and ran towards the place where the hope in his heart was.

On the other hand, at the junction of Runan and Yangzhou, it is a chaotic zone where thieves are rampant.

A group of horse thieves rushed into Wangjia Village.

Horse thief is the highest level among all types of thieves, which comes from Arima.

All the men, women and children in Shaoqing Village were driven out.

The villagers were terrified, but they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the leader of the horse thieves.

The leader of the horse thieves was burly and powerful, and his reputation spread far and wide in this area.Other thieves killed and robbed women, but this group of horse thieves only took food.

"Boss, the whole village has been searched, and there is not much oil and water."

The leader of the horse thief pointed his sword, and the village head was brought out, "Old man, prepare enough food next month, someone will come to pick it up. From now on, your village will be protected by me, Wei Yan. Others come here. Just give me my name."

The village chief was overjoyed. Rather than die at the hands of other murderous thieves, he would rather be protected by Wei Yan, a horse thief.The village head used to be a small official in the county, and now he had a feeling in his heart, and he couldn't help saying: "The leader is quite powerful. If he can win fame, it will be easy to make meritorious deeds. Wouldn't it be a waste of ability to rob houses and houses?"

Wei Yan was annoyed, "I used to be in the army, but I can't reuse the military exploits I made many times. I was defeated by the superiors, but I took the blame! Rather than working my life for those treacherous people, I'd rather be happy here!"

The village head hurriedly said: "The general wants to come and encounter inhumane people. Recently, news came that Prime Minister Qin held the imperial examination in Yedu and set up martial arts exams. If the general passes by and wins the champion of martial arts in one fell swoop, Guangzong Yaozu will not say anything, and he will make great achievements in front of him." .”

"Martial arts? There is such a thing?" Wei Yan was surprised.

"This is also the news that just came in these two days." The village head said, and then said: "The prime minister respects the corporal and wins the official position based on his talent. People like me know it, how can the general not know it?"

Wei Yan quickly made a decision.

"Boss, you are gone, what about the brothers?"

Wei Yan made up his mind, and waved his hand, "The people in this village are nice, so don't be horse thieves, just settle down here and protect the villagers. When I win the champion of martial arts, I will come to find you and lead you to make great achievements."

The village chief had already started to regret telling Wei Yan about this, because Wei Yan left, and his village chief lost his protection.Hearing this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Brothers, don't think about yourself, you must also think about future generations. In the future, following the general and having a family background, wouldn't it be a thousand times better than now?"

Therefore, Wei Yan took off his horse thief clothes and went to Yedu to take the exam alone.

At the same time, there are many people with lofty ideals in the world, with dreams, carrying the sky on their shoulders, stepping on the yellow land under their feet, and walking through thousands of mountains and rivers.Facing the sunrise and rising in the east, watching the setting sun in the west, not afraid of the high mountains and high waters and the long road, I packed my bags and headed towards the direction of Yedu.

　Thank you Hongwei Brothers for your support.
