The moon is high in the sky, and the night is sultry.
In front of the deputy envoy's door in the east courtyard, Song Qing would wander outside the door from time to time, frowning: "It's too soon. Are you going to stay overnight?"
After going back and forth several times, Song Qing stopped outside the door and suddenly realized: "Am I stupid? Am I stupid? If this matter becomes my hard-earned horse, isn't there hope?"
"Sir, deputy envoy, the envoy is having a discussion in someone's room. Do you want me to invite the envoy back?"
Song Qing rolled his eyes at the guard: "You wicked thing, what should you do if you are disturbed while you are sleeping with your mother-in-law?"
The guard scratched his head: "The little one may have eaten his heart."
"That's it, go back and sleep. Why, you are far away in the Kingdom of Jin and there is no one to sleep with. You still can't sleep."
"Yes, I am resigning."
The soldier murmured as he walked: "I can't sleep with anyone, I'm talking as if you can. We are all naked men, who is better than the other."
"Zhou Wei, your uncle, if you dare to criticize me for castrating you again, don't you?"
The bodyguard ran away and immediately disappeared into the dim shadows.
The lights flickered, and Mr. Liu waved a branch in his hand, dancing back and forth on the bamboo table: "A long snake formation with a long rainbow shining through the sun. It looks simple, but it can easily surround the enemy, making it difficult for them to look at their head and tail."
"As the name suggests, the Two Dragons Emerging from the Water formation means capturing with two claws. This depends on the command of the general before the battle. If the general is not familiar with the formation, this formation will easily cut off the dragon's body. However, it is still a good formation and must be suitable for the location."
"The formation of the three talents of heaven and earth, the three pillars of heaven, earth and people"
From time to time, Hu Jun looked at the regiment drawn by Mr. Liu on the bamboo table and it was deeply imprinted in his mind, and he deduced it from time to time.
"The merits of the three-pointed kingdom are called the Eight Formations. The Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation is a formation evolved based on the Eight Formations of Zhuge Wuhou. It is divided into Jingmen, Kaimen, Shengmen, Jingmen, Dumen, and Death.
The gate, the closed gate, and the injured gate complement each other. This ambush formation from ten sides is Han Xin's formation. You should have heard about it, so I won't go into details, senior brother."
The brush in Hu Jun's hand quickly recorded something, and then he carefully sandwiched it between the pages of the book.
"Senior brother, where is this Dragon Gate Formation?"
"The Dragon Gate Formation. I only know the formula and the formation diagram for this formation. I really don't know how to set up the formation."
Young Master Liu drank a cup of tea to moisten his throat.
"Can I know the formula?"
Mr. Liu closed his eyes and recalled what the storyteller said when he accompanied his grandfather to listen to storytelling. After pondering for a long time, he finally got the impression: "Flags and flags are arranged in three colors, swords, halberds and guns are arranged on all sides. Fang Tian painted halberds as dragon horns, and yellow flags were brushed on the ground.
The scales are opened, several pairs of silver spears are used as the dragon's tail, a golden gong is arranged on the dragon's belly, a thousand broadswords are used as the dragon's claws, and two silver hammers are opened for the eyes. This is the formula of the Dragon Gate Formation."
After finishing speaking, Mr. Liu picked up the brush beside him and began to draw. He searched a lot for this stuff on Baidu.
About half an hour later, Young Master Liu shook his sore arm and said, "Look, this is the formation diagram of the Dragon Gate Formation."
When Hu Jun heard this, he leaned over the table without hesitation and stared at the drawings drawn by Mr. Liu on the table intently. His breathing could not help but become rapid.
Young Master Liu stood up and stretched, looking at the engrossed Hu Jun, and sighed helplessly, Silly boy, this is something in a novel, just listen to it for fun, how can you take it seriously.
Otherwise, wouldn't everyone in future generations be able to be a strategist and write books and biographies?
"Take your time and watch. Senior brother went back first. I don't know how long we have been talking. The sun has gone down."
Hu Jun waved his hand without raising his head: "Senior brother, please go slowly, I will not send you far."
Looking at Hu Jun who was already addicted, Young Master Liu shook his head, turned around and left, opened the door, and prepared to go back to his room to rest.
When I was telling stories and talking about the art of war and battle formations, I didn't feel tired. When I relaxed, every part of my body ached and I felt uncomfortable.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, two sharp spears were placed on Mr. Liu's neck: "Stop, you are not allowed to go out after the curfew."
Feeling the coolness on his neck, Young Master Liu shuddered and immediately calmed down: "I am Liu Shu, the commander-in-chief of Dalong. I want to go back to my room to rest, can't I?"
One of the soldiers pondered in embarrassment for a while and shook his head at Mr. Liu: "Liu Zhengshi, do as the Romans do in the country. It is your duty. Dalong has a curfew, and Dajin also has a curfew. For the safety of other residents, you cannot let go of humble duties after the curfew." When you go out, I hope Liu Zhengshi understands the difficulties of humble duty. If Liu Zhengshi needs anything, humble duty will have someone prepare it."
"As the Romans do, I naturally have nothing to say, but your Jin Kingdom curfew is too early. When did the curfew start?"
"Liu Zhengshi, it's already past the third watch, and it's almost time to go to the fourth watch."
Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at the bright moon outside the window: "Why is it already the third night so soon? Looking outside the house, it seems that it has only just darkened at dusk."
"Liu Zhengshi, the moon on the 15th day is sixteen full. Today is March 16th, so the moon is extremely bright. In fact, it is already after the third watch. Please Liu Zhengshi not to embarrass your humble position."
Young Master Liu hesitated for a moment: "Brother, how about we be accommodating?" After saying that, he took out a piece of silver and handed it over.
The soldier couldn't help but swallowed his saliva when he saw the bright silver ingot reflected by the moonlight. He still shook his head hesitantly: "Liu Zhengshi, if I accept your ten taels of silver, I may lose my job. Please go back." .”
"Brother, what's going on?"
When he heard the voice, Hu Jun could not calm down to look at the formation, so he stood up and walked out.
Young Master Liu pointed helplessly at the moon in the sky: "It's midnight, the curfew is in effect, and you're not allowed to go out."
Hu Jun was also stunned as he looked at the bright moonlight that had poured down on him: "It's already the third watch so soon? Why does it feel like only a few hours have passed?"
"Maybe I'm too addicted. What should I do now? If they don't let me leave, I can't live here with you!"
"That's all we can do. If senior brother doesn't mind, just sleep peacefully in my little brother's bed for one night. It won't be too late to leave tomorrow."
"Ah? Is this convenient for you?"
Hu Jun turned around and looked at the spacious house: "Senior brother, you are joking, why is this inconvenient? It is just a normal thing for senior brothers and junior fellow students to sleep in the same room."
Young Master Liu narrowed his eyes and looked at Hu Jun: "You are really informal. Anyway, you don't mind that I have nothing to say. I will just rest for the night while I sleep on the floor."
"Senior brother, please."
"good!"
Hu Jun nodded to the two sergeants with an indifferent expression and closed the door.
"Senior brother, you can just sleep on the bed. I will probably stay up all night watching the formations you talked about."
Hu Jun stopped Mr. Liu who was spreading a quilt on the ground.
Young Master Liu nodded in surprise: "That's fine, it's better if you don't sleep."
Shortly after getting on the bed, Young Master Liu fell into a steady breathing, and Hu Jun's expression returned to the array diagram in his hand to look at it carefully.
From time to time, he used a brush to create strange formations on the blank drawings, which were so complex that it was dazzling.
After an unknown amount of time, the first rooster crow was heard outside. Hu Jun put down the brush in his hand, endured his heavy eyelids, blew out the candle, and moved towards the bed.
ps: I'm sorry, I originally wanted to resume updating today, but as soon as I finished my work, I felt relieved and didn't even eat lunch, so I slept from nine o'clock until now.
I promise to resume updating tomorrow. Sorry, I've been a bit tired these past few days.
