Wang Can was suddenly shocked after hearing what the old Taoist said. He suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked: "Old sir, my nose is a nose and my eyes are eyes. My facial features are normal and nothing special. What's so strange about my face?"
"
The old Taoist priest paced back and forth in the pavilion with his hands behind his back, glancing at Wang Can from time to time.
He frowned, his thoughts seemed to be choked and he couldn't think through it.
"Huh?"
When the old Taoist priest's eyes fell on Dian Wei, he suddenly opened his eyes wide again, with a look of surprise on his face. He secretly muttered in his heart: What happened today? I suddenly met two people with strange faces. One person
His face showed that he should be a dead person, and the other one did not live long and was about to die. But his face showed that it was different from the actual one, showing that he was rich and noble. It was strange, really strange.
Dian Wei saw the old Taoist priest staring at him and shouted: "Old man, what are you looking at? You are wearing a Taoist robe and you are a monk. Why are you so rude?"
"Forehead……"
The old Taoist priest looked at Dian Wei speechlessly, then sat on the stone pier, thinking carefully. Seeing the old Taoist priest pretending to be mysterious, Wang Can rolled his eyes and said, "Tiger, let's go, do we still have to go up the mountain?
"
When the two stood up, the old Taoist priest's brows moved, but he still sat on the stone pier without moving.
When Wang Can saw this, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly and continued to move forward.
He and Dian Wei untied the horse's reins from the trees and led the horses towards the mountainside without any intention of stopping. The old Taoist priest remained motionless, hearing the footsteps getting farther and farther, and suddenly opened his eyes and saw what was before him.
There was no one there. Wang Can and Dian Wei had already left, blinking with doubtful expressions on their faces.
We were all asking how you looked? Why did you leave so suddenly?
The old Taoist priest rolled his eyes and stood up suddenly.
He ignored the chess pieces placed on the stone table and the charcoal fire burning in the pavilion. He flicked his sleeves and took steps to chase Wang Can and Dian Wei. The old Taoist priest was very fast, taking three steps and two steps at a time, as if he was shrinking.
In the blink of an eye, he was behind Wang Can and Dian Wei and said loudly: "Hey, I didn't expect you to go up the mountain too, and the old Taoist also wants to go up the mountain, so I'll just follow you."
The corner of Wang Can's mouth twitched slightly, this old man is really thick-skinned.
"Pretend to be a ghost."
Dian Wei was a rough man and didn't believe in gods and ghosts. He snorted coldly and glanced at the old Taoist priest with a look of disdain on his face. The old Taoist priest was quite shocked when he saw Dian Wei's expression.
Wang Can took the horse and continued on his way.
Wang Can didn't have a good impression of the old Taoist priest next to him.
Just now, when the old Taoist priest said that his appearance was strange, Wang Can asked the old Taoist priest what was strange about his appearance. However, the old Taoist priest avoided answering and did not give an explanation. This made Wang Can
I think that the old Taoist priest is a deceiver, and what he said just now is just a coincidence, and it is a way for the old Taoist priest to whet people's appetite.
Therefore, Wang Can did not pay attention to the old Taoist priest. In Wang Can's heart, he first saw the old Taoist priest's immortal demeanor and his image as a Taoist master, but now he collapsed instantly.
When the old Taoist priest saw that Dian Wei and Wang Can ignored him, he became anxious. He had been sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai just now, waiting for the two of them to take the bait before taking them back to his residence and carefully studying the faces of Wang Can and Dian Wei.
Now not only did Wang Can and Dian Wei fail to catch Wang Can and Dian Wei, but neither of them cooperated. The old Taoist priest felt very helpless.
All the way to the mountainside, Wang Can and Dian Wei didn't speak.
This time, the old Taoist priest was even more anxious.
His steps swayed, his body seemed to have no bones, and somehow he bypassed Dian Wei, walked to Wang Can, and walked with Wang Can. A strange look appeared on Dian Wei's face, but he did not speak. He could sense that the old Taoist priest was not
There was no malice, so there was no stopping him. The old Taoist priest walked with Wang Can and said in a deep voice: "Little friend, your face is very unusual?"
Wang Can said "Oh" and asked: "What's so strange about it?"
The old Taoist priest pretended to be mysterious and lowered his voice: "Let me tell you, your appearance is that of someone who died young. If my calculation is correct, it should have been more than a year ago. As for the one beside you,
Black-faced people are those who die in middle age, and their fate will be death in a few years."
After Wang Can heard this, he was extremely surprised.
If just now Wang Can thought the old Taoist priest was a liar, now he was shocked.
Perhaps, the words of the old Taoist priest were undoubtedly alarmist in Dian Wei's ears. But Wang Can was familiar with history and knew that Dian Wei did die in Wancheng a few years later for protecting Cao Cao. And Wang Can's own situation was even more accurate.
Wang Can came here just a year ago. It can be said that even the most basic time was calculated by the old Taoist priest.
Wang Can was shocked in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.
He said nothing, with a look of disbelief on his face, and continued walking up the mountainside without saying a word.
Seeing Wang Can's expression, the old Taoist priest said hurriedly: "Little friend, don't believe me. What I say is true. Both of your faces show that you should be dead already, or you should die in a few years."
.However, there is a lot of vitality in such a face, and the face has become very good, and he has the appearance of being rich and noble. It is very strange, very strange."
Dian Wei said disdainfully: "You are pretending to be a god and a ghost, and you are trying to be mysterious!"
The old Taoist priest was anxious when he heard this, and he patted his chest and said, "What I, Zuo Ci, said is absolutely not false."
After hearing this, Wang Can turned his head and looked at Zuo Ci, with a look of surprise on his face. This ordinary old man turned out to be the famous Zuo Ci. Wang Can paused for a moment, still shook his head and said: "
No, no, you look at your age, Zuo Ci is definitely not as old as you."
When Zuo Ci heard this, he hurriedly explained: "Little friend, you have misunderstood. I am indeed not very old, about forty years old, but I have been practicing Taoism for a long time, so I have such a fairy-like Taoist body and a childlike appearance. I saw you two
People have strange faces, and I would like to ask you to go up the mountain with me and study this strange face carefully, can you?"
Wang Can secretly thought that Zuo Ci finally showed his tail. Zuo Ci chased the two of them just for the sake of their looks. Wang Can asked with a smile: "Master Zuo, have you ever heard that existence is reasonable?"
"Existence is reasonable?"
After hearing this, Zuo Ci showed a thoughtful look on his face and said, "Well, this sentence makes sense."
He looked at Wang Can and was about to speak again.
At this time, a twelve-year-old boy walked down the mountain path.
The boy strode forward and walked very fast. He was wearing a black cotton robe and wrapped himself tightly. The most peculiar thing was that the boy had a strange appearance, with a high forehead, a flat nose, thick eyebrows, and a dark complexion.
A black face can be compared with Dian Wei. At best, it is weird, at worst, it is ugly.
When the boy saw Zuo Ci following Wang Can, he laughed and said, "Zuo Liar, you are pretending to be a ghost again and deceiving people."
Hearing this, Zuo Ci was so angry that he screamed and yelled: "Pang clown, what did you say? When did you see the old Taoist pretending to be a ghost? Humph, what the old Taoist said is true to every word. How many people can't ask for it?"
When Wang Can saw the boy's strange appearance, he suddenly thought of a person in his mind.
In addition, Zuo Ci called the boy Pang clown with the surname Pang, which made Wang Can think of a possibility. Wang Can was a little unsure and asked: "Daoist Zuo, who is this boy?"
Zuo Ci rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Who else can there be? This kid's name is Pang Tong. He is a weird elf and extremely annoying. Well, let me tell you, he is also a short-lived person."
Pang Tong!
After Wang Can heard this, he stopped suddenly and then continued walking forward.
Who is Pang Tong? He is praised as a phoenix, a man who can calm the world, and is famous. How could Wang Can not know about it? He watched Pang Tong walk down, with a strange look in his eyes.
He seemed to understand why he disliked Pang Tong so much. It was because Zuo Ci gave Pang Tong a face that made Pang Tong say that Zuo Ci was a liar. However, people like Zuo Ci are cynical and eccentric on the surface, but birds of a feather flock together.
, being able to establish a relationship with Zuo Ci is enough to prove that Pang Tong is extraordinary.
Pang Tong walked up to Wang Can, cupped his hands and said, "Excuse me, who is Wang Can of Yizhou, who is the first?"
Wang Can smiled and said: "It's Wang Can."
Pang Tong's black eyes kept rolling, and thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind. He stared at Wang Can, and saw that Wang Can had clear eyes, a smile, and no look of hatred on his face, so he felt relieved. He handed over his hand.
He said: "I have been ordered by my uncle Pang Degong to come to greet Mr. Wang, please!"
Although Pang Tong was young, he was neither humble nor arrogant. He waved his hand for Wang Can to go first.
In fact, when Pang Degong got the news that Wang Can was going up the mountain, he did not plan to send Pang Tong to greet him. Instead, Pang Tong volunteered and took the initiative to go down the mountain to greet Wang Can, wanting to test Wang Can's situation. When he saw that Wang Can did not judge people by their appearance, he felt relieved.
With a faint smile on his face, he led Wang Can and Dian Wei halfway up the mountain.
When Zuo Ci saw Pang Tong robbing someone, he hurriedly said, "Pang Tong, why did you interfere? These two are my guests. I want to take them to my home for a long chat."
Pang Tong snorted and asked, "Liar Zuo, do you have your house on the mountainside?"
Zuo Ci flicked his sleeves and said proudly: "Old Tao, I am a monk. I have traveled all over the world. Wherever I settle, I call home. Now I have settled in Xian Mountain, and this Xian Mountain is Lao Tao's home."
Hearing this, Pang Tong cursed loudly: "You liar, you are so shameless. This mountain belongs to my uncle's house, and you are my uncle's guest, but you say such things. I am ashamed of you. Hum, I will definitely report to my uncle when I get back to the mountain.
Let my uncle drive you away. I really don’t understand how a liar like you can let your uncle and Mr. Sima treat you with courtesy."
Hearing this, Zuo Ci showed a look of pride on his face and said, "Pang clown, you don't understand."
Pang Tongyi rolled his eyes and led Wang Can up the mountainside.
Zuo Ci heard Pang Tong's words and knew that the two people in front of him were here to visit Pang De and Sima Hui, so he did not continue to argue. Wang Can followed Pang Tong and was surprised. He did not expect that the Xian Mountain in Nuoda was the property of the Pang family.
In fact, in this era, as long as you have money, mountains, fields, and land can be bought and sold.
In particular, the Pang family is a large family in Jingzhou and has certain privileges. As long as it uses a certain amount of money, it can buy a mountain. This Xian Mountain is the private property of the Pang family.
A group of people walked all the way up the mountain.
Wang Can and Dian Wei didn't speak, and watched quietly as Pang Tong and Zuo Ci bickered. The two seemed to be born enemies, and they kept arguing. Zuo Ci, in particular, looked like an immortal and a Taoist.
Yes, he argued with Pang Tong regardless of his status, just like an ignorant young man arguing with Pang Tong.
After nearly half an hour, we finally arrived halfway up the mountain.
Wang Can took Dian Wei and followed Pang Tong to an open and gentle place. This place was very open and there were no woods around it, just like a flat land.
At this time, Mr. Pang De and Sima Hui were standing outside, waiting for Wang Can.
Seeing Wang Can coming up, he immediately greeted him.
