Zhao Yao, who was worried about Sun Kui's safety, was having a very happy chat with the dangerous guy in his mouth.
When Zhao Yao saw that the middle-aged man was willing to talk to him, he enthusiastically told him about the good things he had eaten and the interesting things he had met or heard about.
The quiet courtyard became lively because of Zhao Yao.
The middle-aged man didn't mind Zhao Yao being noisy and listened to his chatter very patiently.
The four of them, Chu Huan, who had been waiting for Zhao Yao outside the house, saw that their boss had not come out, so they thought something had happened to the boss they had just recognized.
Tong Xi came out and told Chu Huan and the others that Zhao Yao was fine.
Chu Huan and the others were very surprised to hear that someone really lived in this house. They also wanted to go in and have a look, but Tongxi told them that the man in the wheelchair would not allow them to go in.
"Why can't we go in?"
"Yes, we are the boss's younger brothers." Zhang He has now completely become Zhao Yao's younger brother.
"The owner of the house said he doesn't like crowds of people." Tongxi said, "Even I can't go in."
"No, don't worry, the boss is alone in this weird house."
"It's just that the owner of this house is weird. He might do something to the boss."
"The boss might be in danger."
"Your Highness..." Tongxi almost said "Your Highness" again, but luckily he noticed it in time and changed his words, "The young master said he will be fine and asked me to wait for him outside with you."
Tong Xi was also worried that Zhao Yao would be in danger if he stayed with that weird man, but His Highness wouldn't let him follow, so he had no choice but to come out.
"Boss is too courageous." Zhang He and the others now admire Zhao Yao very much.
Chu Huan frowned and said, "Boss, is it really okay?"
"If something happens, something happened when the young master and I first entered." Tong Xi said to Chu Huan and the others, "There are many masters hidden in this house." And their skills are better than his. He didn't notice it when he first entered, but he noticed it just now.
"Master?" Chu Huan and the others exclaimed, "Real or false?"
"Really." Tongxi looked back at the house behind him and said seriously, "The owner of this house is extraordinary."
Song Jicai said: "Who would dare to live in a house that looks like a ghost house?"
Shen Sen said: "Who is the owner of this house? He is so mysterious and weird."
"He seemed to have been a soldier before." Tongxi told Chu Huan and others about Zhao Yao's guess.
"Sir?"
"Living in a house like this, he must not have been an ordinary soldier before." Chu Huan's father and brother were both soldiers, and they knew the soldiers very well. Ordinary soldiers will quit the military camp after their legs are disabled. The court and the military camp will pay some compensation, but these compensations will not allow him to live in such a large house. "He should have made military exploits before, and it's not small, otherwise he wouldn't live in such a big house."
"Who is he? If you go back and ask dad and the others, you will find out." In Song Jicai's view, their dad should know about matters related to soldiers.
Shen Sen reminded: "Didn't our father warn us not to get close to this house? If we go back to find out who the owner of this house is, wouldn't it reveal that we are close to this place again."
Chu Huan and the others thought of their father's stern look and words when he warned them not to get close to this house, and a look of fear appeared on their faces.
Tongxi said: "The general and others must know who the owner of this house is, otherwise they would not warn you not to approach this house."
"It makes sense." Zhang He nodded in agreement, "Dad and the others must know."
"Did this person commit something? Otherwise our father wouldn't have warned us." Shen Sen suddenly thought of something and said with surprise, "This person couldn't have committed something big."
"If you commit any serious crime, you will be imprisoned, or executed, or sentenced to exile. You shouldn't be imprisoned here." Chu Huan said, "I think the owner of this house has not committed any serious crime. .”
"It doesn't matter who he is, as long as he's not a ghost." Song Jicai sat down on the stone steps at the door of the house, "Let's wait for the boss to come out."
"That's right, as long as it's not a ghost." It scared them to death before.
In the house, Zhao Yao was talking to a middle-aged man, when suddenly an ordinary-looking man brought two cups of tea. He first brought a cup of tea to Zhao Yao, and then brought another cup of tea to the middle-aged man.
"Thank you." Zhao Yao thanked him, and the man serving the tea just nodded and left immediately. From beginning to end, this man didn't say a word.
Zhao Yao looked at the back of the man serving tea as he left, feeling a little weird, but he couldn't tell what was weird.
After saying something just now, Zhao Yao felt a little thirsty, so he lowered his head and took a big gulp of tea.
The middle-aged man just took a sip or two of tea, then looked at Zhao Yao and asked, "Have you read the book of war?"
"The Book of War?" Zhao Yao was stunned for a moment when he was asked, then shook his head and said, "I haven't read it. I just became enlightened this year, and I have only been studying for more than three months now."
When the middle-aged man saw Zhao Yao mentioning reading, he frowned slightly and asked, "Don't like reading?"
"I don't like it." Zhao Yao said very frankly, "I don't like reading the most. What's the point of reading every day?"
"You're right. Reading these frivolous books is really boring and useless." The middle-aged man said warmly, "Reading military books is very interesting. You can read it."
"Really?" Zhao Yao never thought of reading military books.
"You can read "Spring and Autumn" first." The middle-aged man said, "There are many stories about leading soldiers to fight in "Spring and Autumn". They are very interesting. You will like it."
"Uncle, "Spring and Autumn" is not a military book, it is a history book." Although he has not read "Spring and Autumn", he heard his fourth brother say that "Spring and Autumn" is a history book when he helped his fourth brother sort out the books.
"There are also many famous battles recorded in it. You can take a look." The middle-aged man continued.
"Since you said so, uncle, I'll take a look when I get back."
"If you don't understand anything, you can ask me." The middle-aged man said.
Zhao Yao smiled and said, "Okay." As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something and looked at the middle-aged man in surprise, "Uncle, are you going to teach me the art of war?"
The middle-aged man glanced at Zhao Yao and did not answer his question directly. Instead, he said: "You should read "Spring and Autumn" first."
"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely take a good look at it." This uncle probably wanted to examine him first to see if he had the qualifications. If he has the qualifications, this uncle should teach him the art of war. "But uncle, the next time I come to see you, I have to wait until next month."
"next month?"
"I usually have to study, and I can only take one day off per month. I can only wait until next month to take a rest and come to see you." He can come out through the secret passage, but if he comes out to find his uncle at night, his mother and concubine will definitely not agree. . "My family is very strict about studying. I usually can't get out."
The middle-aged man didn't know what he thought of, and his eyes became dark for a moment, but they soon returned to normal.
"Then come back when you take a bath."
"Uncle, we can communicate every day." Zhao Yao said, "I will ask my bird friend to deliver the letter to you."
"Bird friend?"
"Yes, I have many bird friends. They can help me deliver messages." Zhao Yao said, thinking of Zhang He and the others who said there were many crows here before. "I also have crow friends. Uncle, if you don't mind, I can also invite them." My crow friend brings you a message."
"Friends with crows?" This was the first time the middle-aged man heard that someone made friends with crows.
"Yes, my friend crows, they can also help deliver messages." Zhao Yao thought that most people didn't like crows, so he added, "Uncle, if you think it is unlucky to dislike crows, then I will ask other birds to deliver messages."
The middle-aged man asked: "Don't you think crows are unlucky?"
"It's the people who say it's unlucky, not the crow. The crow is just a kind of bird."
The middle-aged man did not expect that Zhao Yao could say these words at such a young age, and was very surprised.
"There are no other birds except crows here, so just let the crows deliver the message."
"Uncle, why do you only have crows here?"
"Maybe because I'm unlucky."
