On a starry night, under the windless sky and starlight, the entire hillside of Wollongong seems to be covered with a thin layer of gauze, looking extremely quiet and mysterious.
But at this moment, although they were in the midst of this magnificent scenery, Qin Yang and others did not have the leisure to enjoy the scenery at all.
There is no way out. Qin Yang, Guo Jia and others have been walking in Wollongong for an hour. This time, in order not to disturb the guards brought by his subordinates and cause a commotion, Qin Yang simply took Guo Jia, Guan Hai, Zhao Yun and others in the mountains.
explore between
But it is strange to say that it is a hill that is very close, but for some reason a few people have lost their sense of direction while turning around. Fortunately, Guo Jia used the magic of Dunjia to set up countless number numbers along the way, so that a few people were able to
Being able to return to camp when lost
"Is this the legendary Eight Formations?" After losing his way again, Qin Yang did not return to the camp immediately, but sat slumped in a wilderness, looking up at the stars in the sky and muttering to himself that he had already
I don’t remember how many times I have passed through this wilderness, but why is it that the road and direction are different every time when there is almost no access to the wilderness?!
"Eight Formations? Did His Highness recognize this formation?" Guo Jia couldn't help but asked in surprise when he heard Qin Yang muttering.
Qin Yang chuckled, curled his lips and said: "I wish I had this ability. This is just my guess. Isn't there this one sentence to describe Mr. Wolong? His achievements cover three parts of the country, and he is famous as the Eight Formation Diagram Jiang Liushi.
If you don’t turn around, you will lose your regret and swallow Wu.”
"The Eight Famous Formations..." Guo Jia pondered for a moment and said, "Is this Mr. Wolong also a formation master? These eight formations must be his famous formation, right? Then Your Highness, what are the other sentences?
mean?"
Qin Yang smiled. He couldn't explain to Guo Jia what the Three Kingdoms were and what the Wu Kingdom was, right? Thinking of this, he just laughed and said: "Actually, this sentence is about another allusion, but these eight formations
Tu Ke is indeed related to Mr. Wolong..."
"Oh? Hehehe... It seems that these adults are very elegant and cheerful. They are chatting in the mountains at night. What they say makes me admire them in my heart."
Before Qin Yang finished speaking, a burst of laughter suddenly came from near them. It was so close that it seemed as if it was ringing in the ears of several people.
"Who?!" Zhao Yun and Guan Hai released extremely powerful fighting energy almost at the same time, instantly covering the surrounding area of tens of meters. But to their disappointment, they did not find even a single creature within this range.
!
"Haha, you guys don't have to look for me, I can't be that fast..." The laughing voice sounded again. Everyone looked around, but they saw a tall and slightly thin figure in the gauze-like fog above the wilderness.
The figure gradually approaches slowly
"Your Excellency, is this Mr. Wolong?" Qin Yang stopped Guan Hai from rushing over and asked lightly with a slight salute to the approaching figure.
At this moment, the man had already walked not far away from Qin Yang and others. At this time, everyone finally saw clearly that the man who came could not be Mr. Wolong. Zhuge Liang was said to be about twenty years old, with a majestic appearance and a tall figure. But this
The man's beard and hair have turned white, and he is obviously an old man who is over sixty years old. Although the old man is extremely energetic and has piercing eyes, he is far from the legendary Zhuge Liang.
After hearing Qin Yang's question, the old man laughed and said: "You are joking, how can I be Mr. Wolong? The little old man just passed by Wollongong and suddenly heard the gentleman commenting on Zhuge Liang, so he said more.
A few words, please don’t blame me.”
"You're welcome, sir. Qin Yang, dare I ask my father-in-law Gao's name?" Qin Yang was very respectful. He was not stupid, so how could he believe that the old man in front of him "accidentally passed by" this place?
The old man hurriedly returned the courtesy and said: "It turns out that your Excellency is the King of Hanzhong, and His Royal Highness King Huangjin Ming, I am just a commoner in the mountains and fields. I don't dare to offend Your Highness's respect with a humble name, so it's better not to say anything... I forgive my sins and take my leave..."
After saying that, the old man bowed and saluted, he turned and left. Qin Yang finally "caught" a living person, how could he let him leave so easily?
"Wait a minute, old man?" Qin Yang hurriedly called out to the old man.
The old man turned around and looked at Qin Yang and Guan Hai and Zhao Yun who were already eager to try. He suddenly smiled and said, "What? Doesn't His Highness Prince Ming want to keep me by force?"
Qin Yang rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I misunderstood, Qin Yang just wanted to play a little game with me."
"Game?" The old man was stunned for a moment and then said with a meaningful smile: "I have asked for help from countless people, and I have seen countless heroes in the world. But you are the first person who wants to play a game with me. Since His Highness King Ming
If you have this intention, then I want to hear how this game is played, Your Highness."
Qin Yang smiled and said: "This game is actually very simple. I ask the questions. I only need to answer Qin Yang's yes or no. If I can guess my identity within ten questions, then I will win."
If you can’t guess it, then my husband wins, what do you think?”
"Oh? Is there such a thing?!" The old man seemed to be a little more interested. After looking at Qin Yang for a moment, he said: "Then I would like to ask you, what if you win? What if you lose?"
Qin Yang said: "If I win, Qin Yang will naturally send me away respectfully, and if I am willing, I can send Qin Yang to do anything. If I am lucky enough to win, I will ask my father for help."
How about you break the big formation trapped here and do a small favor for me?"
"Is this..." The old man began to ponder after hearing Qin Yang's words, because no matter from which aspect it sounded, Qin Yang seemed to be extremely confident in guessing his identity.
"You old man, you don't know how to praise me. You know that a promise from my Highness is worth thousands of troops!" Guan Hai couldn't help but said angrily when he saw the old man's hesitation.
"Guan Hai must not be rude!" Qin Yang hurriedly stopped Guan Hai, then looked at the old man with a smile and said: "What do you think, old man? Are the rules of Qin Yang's game considered fair?"
The old man was a little shaken by Guan Hai's excitement. However, he was still a very cautious person. He looked Qin Yang up and down and said, "Boy, before I agree to you, I want to ask you a question.
Answer me truthfully”
Qin Yang nodded and said, "I just want to ask, Qin Yang knows everything."
"Okay, let me ask you, do you know the name of your master?" The old man asked suddenly without thinking.
A taboo name?! Qin Yang was startled and couldn't help but think of the overly strong old man who suddenly broke into his camp under Shouchun City. Although the old man kept saying that he was his master, Qin Yang still didn't know this.
The taboo of "Master"
Thinking of this, Qin Yang shook his head honestly and said, "I wonder if I know my master..."
"I don't know!" The old man shook his head decisively, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Since Qin Yang didn't even know the old guy's name, then the old guy couldn't tell Qin Yang some anecdotes in the world.
"Okay, in that case, I promise you to ask any questions you have..." The old man ignored Qin Yang's doubtful look and said directly
Although Qin Yang had some doubts in his heart, seeing that the old man had nodded and agreed to the bet with him, he temporarily put these doubts aside and began to think about it, preparing to ask questions.
"Is my father from Jingzhou?"
"Exactly"
"Is there anyone named Cai among my husband's relatives and friends?"
"Well...it's worth it"
“My husband’s wife’s surname is Cai?!”
"Exactly..."
"Haha, in that case, I think I don't need to ask any more questions. I already know the identity of my father-in-law." Qin Yang's eyes lit up and he laughed.
The old man asked doubtfully: "So, His Highness Prince Ming already knows who the old man is?"
Qin Yang nodded and said: "To be honest with you, I am asking these questions just to confirm my guesses. In fact, from the moment I showed up, I have already had some vague guesses... If what I said is right,
My father-in-law’s last name is Huang Chengyan, right?”
"How do you know my name?!" This old man is indeed Huang Chengyan. At this moment, Qin Yang revealed it, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
In fact, Qin Yang asked these unrelated questions almost all because of Cai Yan's advice. The Cai family was from a famous family. Qin Yang had been with Cai Yan for a long time, so he naturally understood some things between the noble families.
When Cai Yong was alive, Cai Yong was the head of the Cai family. All the Cai people in the world bowed to Cai Yong and relied on Cai Yong. However, since Cai Yong died, the Cai family has lost its original glory and began to fall apart and seek a way out.
One of them, the Cai family, came to Jingzhou, and Cai Mao, the current commander-in-chief of the Jingzhou Navy, was among them. Cai Mao had two sisters. One of them was naturally the wife of Liu Biao, the leader of Jingzhou, and the other sister was older.
She married Huang Chengyan, a celebrity from Jingzhou at an early age
Qin Yang vaguely guessed Huang Chengyan's identity after he appeared in Wollongong, or to be precise, in the formation. However, Qin Yang was cautious, fearing that the current people and events would conflict with the history he knew.
, so based on Cai Yan's description, he asked those questions. If these questions were not correct, then Qin Yang could only bite the bullet and continue to guess at the celebrities of the Three Kingdoms he knew one by one.
After confirming Huang Chengyan's identity, Qin Yang was naturally overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Sir, Mr. Huang, your son-in-law set up a large formation in Wollongong. He is clearly deliberately playing tricks on me. You have to make the decision for me...
