Chapter 178 Fake Identity
"Where is this?"
Li Huai strives to be a child who, when faced with new things, has an attitude of forcing himself to be calm, but having an inner fear and a little curiosity.
"Look at you, how scared are you?" Uncle Fu looked at the young master with a distorted expression and couldn't help but frown, "Be calmer. Although this is your first time meeting a stranger, he has forgotten how to teach people how to calm down in the book.
Are you calm and interacting with others?"
Well……
Seeing that his acting skills were overturned, Li Huai decisively put away his expression, nodded in agreement, looking like a good student, and then used the corner of his eye to look ahead.
He and Uncle Fu were standing on a hill. Looking down from a high position, they could see a bustling village.
This is the edge of a forest, and a small river winds from the distance, just forming an intersection at the village. The village has tall wooden fences built like a city wall.
"This is a place of settlement called Zuolong, not far from Xinye," Uncle Fu pointed at the village and whispered, "Since the collapse of the world, the imperial court has no longer maintained its order, and heroes from all over the world have emerged. Jingzhou is the
The hub is the place where the four wars took place. After several wars, there were many refugees and they were scattered in all directions. You have also seen Kanyu under heaven. You should know where the place I am talking about is, right?"
"I know it." Li Huai looked respectful on the surface, but his heart was turned upside down, and he vaguely guessed which book it was.
He wrote books before time travel. In order to save trouble and reduce his own workload, most of the books used real-life maps. In order to avoid the interference of the Time and Space Administration and prevent being 404, he had to ignore the dynasty and change the original map.
The setting is changed and the magic is changed into a specious and renamed dynasty.
Because of this, many things and situations are traceable.
"But there are still many details that don't match up, and we still need to observe more..."
Thinking like this, he followed Uncle Fu and headed towards Zuolong Township.
However, while walking forward, Uncle Fu suddenly said: "When you meet someone, you have to remember that your name is Huangfu Huai, and I am your uncle, Huangfu Xuan."
Li Huai was stunned for a moment, thoughts flashing through his mind, and he was thinking about all kinds of things, but he nodded quickly, and then asked: "Does my nephew remember anything else? For example, our family background, origin, if anyone asks about it,
.”
Uncle Fu nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "It doesn't matter, you don't have to remember those things, just answer truthfully, just say that you have studied hard since you were a child, don't ask about him, and I will tell you the rest."
Li Huai still nodded, and then the two of them quickened their pace.
As I walked, I heard the sound of people, and saw that at the gate of the wooden village, there were not many people coming and going, but they were in a hurry, and there were many vendors shouting.
"When refugees gather, there will be bandits, so walls and fortifications need to be built. However, as Jingzhou has gained a new master in recent years, the situation has stabilized, and many bandits and bandits have been eliminated around it. Even the fish that slipped through the net,
Often they would not dare to cause trouble and would hide in hiding, but while the surrounding states and counties were still at war, traveling merchants would come to Jingzhou to gather and exchange information. Although Zuolong is remote, it is no exception."
Li Huai acted like he didn't understand, trying to show that he was thinking.
But Uncle Fu frowned and said: "Don't be so confused when you meet people. Although you are young, you have read a lot of books now. You should nourish your energy. The people you want to meet when you meet will be there one by one.
But they are not easy people. If you act like this, it will only make people think you are no different from ordinary people, and you will not be well regarded, which will be detrimental to your future reputation!"
Seeing that his acting skills were overturned again, Li Huai finally learned his lesson and no longer looked like before. He calmed down his expression, kept a calm demeanor, and followed Uncle Fu all the way.
The streets in the village are planned and paved with stone slabs. Although the houses on both sides are simple and dilapidated, they are not dirty and messy. Moreover, the layout and pattern can be seen, which is clearly carefully arranged. Neighbors and houses live in their own places.
Li Huai even saw ditches on both sides of several sections of the road, which were obviously used to drain water and seemed to be the prototype of sewers.
So he couldn't help but said: "The layout here is very expert."
Uncle Fu nodded and said: "Yes, when Zuo Long was first built, the refugee leader went to the edge of Xinye with his lover and asked Mr. Ming Jing for advice, and then he got the layout."
"Mr. Mingjing." Li Huai's heart skipped a beat, and a name popped into his head.
"Yes, that gentleman has a great talent. Not only is he proficient in astronomy and geography, but he is also involved in hundreds of schools of thought. He has several students who are famous all over the world." Uncle Fu took a deep look at Li Huai and said, "I
This time, in addition to meeting the outstanding figures from several academies, I also hope that you can seize the opportunity and get a first or two evaluation, or at least some criticism, so that you may be able to enter the mirror and become his teacher."
Li Huai's eyelids twitched.
Follow Mingjing as your teacher?
I really want to vaguely remember that there was such a sidekick who was kicked out of the school by Mr. Ming Jing Ouyang An, and then went astray...
Suddenly, Li Huai became more and more certain of his guess.
After thinking about it, the two of them came to a small building in the center of the village.
The buildings in the entire village are simple and crude, but this pavilion is the only one where the craftsmanship can be seen. Although it cannot be said to be very fine, it is of good shape.
"This is it, I don't know how many people are here." Uncle Fu turned his head and looked at the side of the house, and saw two tall horses tied in the stables, and a carriage parked on the road next to it.
Uncle Fu pondered for a moment, and then said: "Sure enough, someone has already arrived." Then he flicked his sleeves and walked in first, followed closely by Li Huai.
As soon as the two of them walked in, they were greeted by a waiter. After meeting Uncle Fu, the man had a smile on his face: "It turns out that Mr. Huangfu is here. Several gentlemen are waiting on the second floor. I'll give it to you."
Lead the way."
Uncle Fu nodded slightly, his expression unchanged.
Li Huai followed him upstairs, already understanding that his uncle had already gained a lot of fame by using a pseudonym in the past, but he didn't know if there was any deeper meaning to his actions.
After thinking about it, I arrived at the second floor.
The second floor is different from the first floor. The floor is polished brightly. Instead of tables and chairs, there are several low tables with seats behind them.
Four people are already seated.
Li Huai glanced at it, then lowered his gaze. According to the etiquette here, when nobles meet for the first time, they are not allowed to look directly at each other, otherwise it will be rude.
But although the time was short and hasty, it gave Li Huai a general impression.
The four people were dressed differently and sat quite far apart.
There are two people sitting at the east end, one is quite rich and smiling; the other is well-proportioned and has an expressionless face; there is a person sitting in the north corner with long hair disheveled, covering half of his face, pouring himself a drink; and there is another person away from the stairs.
Not far from his mouth was a handsome middle-aged scribe.
Seeing Uncle Fu and Uncle Fu, the middle-aged scribe stood up and said with a smile: "Mr. Huangfu, you are finally here. I finally figured out a way to solve the game between you and me."
Uncle Fu narrowed his eyes: "Oh? So fast?"
The scribe said proudly: "This is the same as before when I followed my lord to conquer the Wuxi barbarians in the south. I led the army deep and was surrounded by the barbarians. The situation was similar to that on a chessboard. In desperation, I thought of a way to solve it!"
Li Huai suddenly became energetic!
Could it be that this person is a military leader?
