Chapter 109: Zhuge Liang's Intelligence Spying
Ji Hao was very patient towards a woman who would soon belong to him. He chuckled and walked forward, stretching out two fingers to pinch the tip of Sun Shangxiang's sword.
In an instant, Sun Shangxiang's expression changed.
I tried to stab forward, but couldn't get it in; I tried to pull it back, but couldn't get it back.
"Is this the 'power of the emperor' that big brother often talks about? How can it be so strong?" After trying for a long time, Sun Shangxiang found that the gap in strength between herself and Ji Hao was ridiculously large.
Just like she usually plays with her pet little white rabbit.
Skills and the like are completely useless in the face of absolute power.
"City King, my sister is naughty, please bear with me."
Sun Quan's first reaction was to apologize to Ji Hao. After all, it was too rash to attack him with a sword right after they met. He was not a man of the martial arts world and was not used to this way of greeting between "masters".
However, Sun Shangxiang's strength is a bit hilarious.
"It doesn't matter. We'll be a family soon. There's no need to talk about taking responsibility!" Ji Hao shook his head.
Then, he looked at Sun Shangxiang and said, "If I say that your brother Sun Ce is just a nobody and not worth mentioning outside, would you believe it?"
Sun Shangxiang: “…”
Sun Quan: "..."
Are you polite?
"No, my elder brother is one of the twenty-four generals after all, and his ranking is not low. How many people in this world can defeat him?" Sun Shangxiang argued.
Then, Sun Quan was about to speak.
Sun Shangxiang simply drove him away, saying, "Second brother, go away! I don't want to see you today!"
Sun Quan: “???”
But he still walked away honestly, without continuing to be a light bulb, and without worrying about any problems - although the etiquette and laws were strict in ancient times, once the marriage was confirmed, there would basically be no changes.
The nine clans of the family were all included in the extermination of unmarried relatives, and they could not escape.
Therefore, it is not an overstep to let Ji Hao and Sun Shangxiang be alone together to cultivate their relationship.
However, Sun Shangxiang obviously did not have this idea.
Instead, he said: "I have always suspected that my elder brother cheated me!"
"What do you mean?" Ji Hao asked.
"He has been annoyed by me pestering him since they were young. He never puts his heart into fighting me. The same goes for other people in Jiangdong. They all give in to me." Sun Shangxiang said, "What's the point of this? Sometimes I really envy the 'Fourth Lady'. She can now lead female soldiers to fight on the battlefield, but I can't even learn any real skills."
It turned out that she was not unaware that her sword skills were just fancy skills, but she wanted to learn real kung fu but no one taught her.
The Sun family is not the Lu family, they are a legitimate aristocratic family.
He believed that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent, so he would not teach her martial arts, let alone train her to become a top-notch general like Lu Bu did.
But the whole family loves her.
He just found a sword-dancing master and pretended that he couldn't beat her to save her from practicing hard.
But unfortunately, the effect was not good.
Especially after Sun Jian's death, no one has taken care of her over the years and allowed her to practice martial arts, but it is still extremely difficult for her to learn the real things.
Not everyone can write a short essay on "My Father Wenhou".
"Practicing martial arts is very hard, and going to the battlefield can result in unpredictable casualties. If one can avoid going, no one would be willing to go." Ji Hao shook his head.
But Sun Shangxiang didn't feel anything about this.
Ask: "Would you like to teach me?"
"I don't object to you learning. As long as I can do it, everyone in my family can learn it." Ji Hao said.
"Well, I agree to our marriage!"
Ji Hao: “???”
So, if I don’t teach you martial arts, what if you still refuse?
……
Zhou Yu's treatment did not take long, but after he recovered, he could not get out of bed immediately, but had to recuperate - Hua Tuo suggested that he should recuperate for a hundred days, just like a broken bone.
"It's only when it gets better that there won't be a relapse."
However, Zhou Yu had to think more about this, and looked at Ji Hao and asked: "Are you trying to stop us from attacking Jingzhou in this way?"
A joking tone. But everyone knows that many times, what is said in a joking manner may not be a joke.
"That's not true. I don't care whether you attack Jingzhou or not. What I care about is that you don't attack my Xuzhou and Yuzhou." Ji Hao smiled and said, "Instead of scheming with you, I might as well go and have fun with Shangxiang!"
Today, he made an appointment with Sun Shangxiang to go for an outing and hunt.
Zhou Yu definitely can't go.
But Sun Ce and Sun Quan both went.
It is worth mentioning that the old lady has been busy these days, personally preparing nourishing medicine for Zhou Yu, as if she were treating her own son, which made Ji Hao look at her with admiration.
The Eastern Wu was xenophobic, and it was almost impossible for someone who was not one of them to hold a high position.
Zhou Yu, Lu Su and Lu Meng, three generations of great generals, are of the same lineage. Lu Meng is Zhou Yu's deputy general.
As outsiders, Lu Xun couldn’t go up and Pang Tong couldn’t enter.
But on the other hand, due to their extreme xenophobia, they were also very united and had a harmonious relationship. Even if Sun Ce suddenly died one day, Zhou Yu and Sun Quan could still cooperate seamlessly.
As long as the old lady is around, everyone, including Huang Gai and Cheng Pu, can be safe and sound.
In a sense, she also has her shining points like Empress Lu.
"You can't have your cake and eat it too. At first glance, I think the old lady is doing something bad, but think about it carefully. Even if Pang Tong wanted to test Sun Quan's magnanimity, could he use Zhou Yu's reputation to test it? If Sun Quan was magnanimous, how would the officials in Jiangdong see it? How would Lu Su and Lu Meng see it?"
While they were thinking, everyone had already arrived in the wild.
At this moment, a "small dot" appeared in the sky in the distance, which seemed to be an eagle.
"I heard that the most delicious seafood is lobster, and the most delicious mountain food is eagle. How about you shoot it down, brother Chengtian, and we can have a feast?" Sun Ce said.
Ji Hao naturally would not refuse this.
He took out the "Haotian Bow" with an elasticity of more than ten stones, put an arrow on the bow, bent the bow, and shot it out quickly.
The next moment, an arrow hit the target.
The eagle landed.
But what no one expected was that although the sculpture had fur, it had no flesh. It was actually a wooden sculpture, or rather, a wooden eagle that looked like a large eagle.
In short, it is not a living species.
This shocked Sun Ce.
"Have we shot down the god's mount?"
The others also looked confused.
But Ji Hao shook his head and said calmly: "It is not a mount of a god, but a tool used by the enemy to gather intelligence. If I am not mistaken, this is the skill of the Jiangxia Huang family, passed down from Lu Ban, and is a kind of mechanical skill."
In this world, there is no magic that can directly fight the enemy. Even Zhang Jue's magic of turning beans into soldiers would shatter at the slightest touch.
But there is indeed magic.
The mechanical arts are also amazing. In the original novel, Zhuge Liang could build a wooden eagle that could fly in the sky for three days. His "wooden ox and flowing horse" could also travel by itself, passing through rugged plank roads and traveling more than 100 miles a day.
Ji Hao has also studied it in depth over the years.
But unfortunately, we only found the Jiangxia Huang family, and found that no one had mastered it for several generations, and only one Huang Chengyan was suspected to know it.
It is a unique skill.
"Enemy? Could it be?"
"Jingzhou!"
……
On the other side, in Wolonggang, Nanyang, in a thatched cottage.
Zhuge Liang was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, when he suddenly staggered and almost fell down.
There was a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. He looked solemn and said to himself, "The king is not as good as Xiang, and the one above him is the emperor. It is really beyond human power!"
He just took one more look at it in the crowd, and then an arrow shot down the "flying eagle" that he had painstakingly built for many years.
"Too cruel!"
