The last time Chu Nan came to Xuchang, only a chariot was sent to greet him. Although Cao Cao did not greet him personally this time, the standards for welcoming Chu Nan and his entourage into the city were much higher. People from Honglu Temple came to welcome him in person.
It is also the best place in the post house. The etiquette is completely different from last time.
Chu Nan knew that this was a signal of intimacy from Cao Cao.
"The prosperity of Xuchang is far inferior to that of Luoyang. How can it be considered a capital city?" Wei Yue followed Chu Nan. His task was to protect Chu Nan. In fact, there was no need for it. If Cao Cao wanted to kill Chu Nan,
With the current lineup of generals in Xuchang, it would be useless for Zhang Liao to come in. On the contrary, if Cao Cao does not want to kill him, then no one in Xuchang city can kill him.
Wei Yue followed Lu Bu very early, and he also saw the prosperity of both cities. Although Xuchang is now designated as the capital, it has also undergone a round of repairs and broad swords after being designated as the capital. However, despite this, no matter the layout or architecture, both
It is not as prosperous as Luoyang, nor as grand as Chang'an. It may not even be much better than Xiapi, and it really cannot match the style of a capital city.
"Wherever the emperor is, there is the capital. It has nothing to do with the size of the city or its prosperity." Chu Nan lay comfortably on the couch and said casually after hearing the words.
"Sir, when will Cao Cao be willing to see me?" Wei Yue looked at Chu Nan and asked.
These days we have been traveling together and even ambushed Cao Cao together. We are already familiar with each other and can talk a lot more freely.
"Just for a few days, he can't keep us in Xuchang forever. My father-in-law has already stationed troops in Xiaopei. Cao Cao is asking for peace at this time. If the troops are stationed in Xiaopei for one day, it will cause unrest in the counties and counties of Yuzhou. If things go on like this, it will affect Yuzhou
This is not a good thing." Chu Nan said casually.
"That
Wei Yue hesitated for a moment and said worriedly: "Will the incident in Nanyang be exposed?"
"The only people who know about it are me and Zhang Xiu. Even if Zhang Xiu intends to reveal it, Cao Cao will most likely choose not to know." Chu Nan shook his head and said.
"Do you still have a choice between knowing and not knowing?" Wei Yue was a little stunned.
Chu Nan picked up a grape on the table: "You know this grape is poisonous, and I am your enemy. Are you saying you knew and told me, or are you pretending not to know?"
"If it's an enemy, of course we don't know." Wei Yue didn't hesitate at all.
"But if I die, all your wealth will disappear. Do you know at this time?" Chu Nan asked again.
"this
Wei Yue hesitated.
"Then add one more thing, if I die, the people close to you will also die. Do you know at this time?"
"I know." Wei Yue said after struggling for a moment.
"Then you say you know or don't know. Do you have a choice?" Chu Nan threw the grapes into his mouth. He enjoyed the superiority of his IQ over others, but it was a pity that he couldn't show it in front of Zhang Liao. Why are these famous historical generals so smart?
Not entirely, people like Dian Wei and Xu Chu should not be included in this list.
Wei Yue saw Chu Nan eating grapes and subconsciously wanted to stop him.
"You don't think it's really poisonous, do you?" Chu Nan looked at him and found it very interesting. He has now come into contact with many of Lu Bu's generals. Zhang Liao is stable and capable. Being with him makes you feel safe. Hou
His ability is acceptable, but he is a villain. Before you kill him, just stay polite. Cao Xing is a boring gourd. He lacks a sense of presence on weekdays and is easily ignored. When Wei Yue is not familiar with him, he looks like a soldier.
But after getting to know each other, he turned out to be a talkative person.
On weekdays, Zhang Liao and Lu Lingqi were relatively decent when they were around. Now, in order to avoid being recognized, Zhang Liao and Lu Lingqi stayed outside the city. When he was left to follow Chu Nan, he let himself go a bit. It was not clear what his abilities were. But his IQ is average, and he can be used as a source of praise when Chu Nan occasionally wants to show off his IQ.
How good is this? I have satisfied my need to be a good teacher, and he has gained valuable knowledge. Everyone can get what they need. I think he is a good person for the time being and is suitable for training.
Thinking of this, Chu Nan's heart moved, and it fell on Wei Yue.
Just because you have the same longevity as me, I recognize you as the fifth little brother!
Looking at Wei Yue's information, Chu Nan became more and more satisfied with Wei Yue. His number one brother is Demon Mantis, his number two brother is Monster Ant, his number three brother Cao Xing, and his number four brother Wei Yan. Wei Yue naturally has to be ranked. It’s time for number five.
"Sir, why are you looking at me like this?" Wei Yue felt a little uncomfortable under Chu Nan's gaze.
Since the emergence of the three attributes of spirit, energy and spirit, Chu Nan vaguely felt that whether the other party could detect that he was spying was related to the gods. Lu Lingqi also told him that when she used her insight talent to look at her, the gods would detect abnormalities, but for gods than If you are low, it will be useless even if the other party awakens his divine power.
Chu Nan's heart suddenly moved, he looked at Wei Yue and frowned: "Do you have psychic powers?"
"What is psychic?" Wei Yue looked at Chu Nan curiously.
"Just...can you communicate with some ghosts?" Chu Nan looked at Wei Yue and asked curiously. In the introduction of this psychic, it was said that he could communicate with all living things, but Chu Nan instinctively understood it as being able to see ghosts.
Wei Yue shivered and laughed dryly: "Why do you make such a joke, Master?"
It is true that there are ghosts in the world, but he has never seen it. At this moment, hearing Chu Nan suddenly ask this question, he felt that there was a yin energy surrounding him.
"I see that you have psychic powers and can communicate with all living things. All living things naturally include ghosts." Chu Nan was a little confused when he saw Wei Yue's reaction: "General Wei, don't you know?"
"The general is indeed more likely to get close to beasts than ordinary people. The lord's red rabbit was taken care of by the general in his early years, and he would sometimes talk to them, but if we talk about ghosts..." Wei Yue thought for a while, shuddered, and then He shook his head: "I've never seen it before."
It's embarrassing that a psychic can't see ghosts. And you, a great general on the battlefield, are actually afraid of ghosts?
Although Chu Nan had never seen Wei Yue fight, Zhang Liao said that he fought very bravely. A brave general is afraid of ghosts and likes to communicate with animals when he is free?
In Chu Nan's mind, Wei Yue hugged a horse's neck or held a dog and talked nonchalantly. The horses and dogs had humanized expressions of disgust on their faces. This feeling... was inexplicably festive.
"The general is really a genius!" Chu Nan shook his head speechlessly.
Wei Yue suddenly looked at the mantis on Chu Nan's shoulder, hesitated and said, "Sir, you seem to be a very irritable monster?"
"Huh?" Chu Nan looked at Wei Yue in confusion. His mantises and ants usually communicated with him through their thoughts, but their mental communication was usually initiated by Chu Nan as the leader. He was not Wei Yue. Yue, I don’t want to communicate with animals all day long.
"Can you communicate with it?" Chu Nan asked.
"It wants a group of female praying mantises, saying that you restricted it and wants to reproduce." Wei Yue said.
Chu Nan looked at the mantis on his shoulder. The mantis seemed to be aware of it. He looked up at Chu Nan and continued to lie down on his shoulder. In this way, in the past two days, the mantis was indeed a little listless.
When children grow up, they start to think about females?
Sure enough, it is still as good as before. When it was not grown up, it would only be attached to its master and would not think about such messy things. As it grows up, its IQ increases and it has more and more requirements.
In order to reproduce, won't mantises eat male mantises after pregnancy?
Is this instinct?
If so, would my little mantis brother be willing to be eaten?
Let's find something to do for it.
Chu Nan let the mantis fly to the table, looked at it, turned to Wei Yue and said, "General, can you read?"
Wei Yue nodded, not understanding why Chu Nan suddenly asked this.
"General, you have nothing to do these days, why don't you do me a favor?" Chu Nan looked at Wei Yue and said with a smile.
"Young Master's orders are all." Wei Yue felt that Chu Nan's eyes were a little strange, but he didn't know where the strangeness was. He could only bow and say, "I'll give you my orders." But whether he can do it depends on what the specific matter is.
"How about I ask the general to help me teach it how to read?" Chu Nan pointed at the demonic mantis lying on the table and said with a smile. The idea of making these two little guys literate had come up before, but Chu Nan didn't want to do this.
This is a troublesome thing, so it has never been implemented. Now that there is a subordinate who can channel, it is natural to take advantage of it.
"???!!" Wei Yue looked at Chu Nan in shock: "Master, this
Isn't that ridiculous?
Teaching a bug to read? You can find a dog more reliable than this one.
"Don't worry, it has opened its spiritual intelligence and is very smart." Chu Nan said calmly.
Wei Yue subconsciously looked at Mantis, who was secretly holding a grape and eating it. Seeing him, his movements froze for a moment, and then seeing that Chu Nan didn't respond, he continued eating.
Wei Yue:
"Ziri, review the old and learn the new, teach knowledge, and improve your own knowledge." Chu Nan looked at Wei Yue with an expression on his face: "I am doing this for your own good."
"The last general...just become a general." Wei Yue said with a smile. He was not too ambitious.
"If the general is willing to help me, I will give the general a treasure, which can help the general understand the art of war and use the Nine Secrets of the Imperial Army more smoothly." Chu Nan is naturally not the kind of person who lets people do work for nothing. He has used it before
The marching order flag can be given to Wei Yue.
"Don't worry, Young Master, I will leave this matter to the general." Wei Yue had used Chu Nan's marching flag before and knew the secrets of it. Hearing this, he said sincerely: "Young Master will not be disappointed."
"Very good!" Chu Nan nodded with satisfaction and told Mantis the good news through mental communication.
The demon mantis obviously didn't understand what learning was. It just obeyed Chu Nan's instructions and flew above Wei Yue's head. According to Chu Nan's orders, it would do whatever Wei Yue asked it to do in the next few days.
Looking at the harmonious scene of one person and one insect getting along, Chu Nan nodded with satisfaction, he is such a good master!
Cao Cao might be visiting him tomorrow. After Chu Nan finalized the matter, he kicked Wei Yue and Mantis out together and went to bed by himself. Without his mother-in-law, he could only sleep alone on this bed.
