Then the curtain of the carriage was slightly opened.

The soldier who had just scolded Wu Liang bowed closer and seemed to whisper a few words to the people in the carriage. Then he turned around and led his men to look around at the intersection where Wu Liang and Dian Wei were standing.

Apparently, Zhang Liang inside the carriage should have only smelled the aroma of "Reviving Soul Incense", but he was not sure where this strange aroma came from, so he sent soldiers to search for the source of the aroma nearby.

"Let's go."

Wu Liang saw that these soldiers did not pay attention to him, so he immediately said to Dian Wei.

Dian Wei had some doubts in his heart.

He knew that Wu Liang's trip was to "encounter" Zhang Liang by chance, so why Zhang Liang's carriage had stopped, but Wu Liang did not take the initiative to offer the treasure, but insisted on leaving.

But seeing that Wu Liang had turned around, he didn't ask any more questions, just lowered his head and obeyed.

It was when Wu Liang turned around that the soldiers immediately noticed him as Wu Liang expected, and immediately shouted at him and Dian Wei: "You two, stop!"

Wu Liang seemed to be startled. He slowly turned around and bowed respectfully to the soldiers. He smiled and said: "Master Jun, I am just a businessman passing through Jinyang City. If I accidentally offended you in some way just now,

I have offended you military lords, or violated the taboos of Jinyang City. I will first apologize to you, and please show your respect to me."

"Cut the nonsense!"

The leading soldier scolded him rudely and stepped forward to look him over, especially after taking another look at the burly Dian Wei. However, he calmly took a step back to stand with the soldier behind him.

Together, he asked, "Let me ask you, did you smell a strange fragrance when you two were standing here just now?"

"Strange smell?"

Wu Liang made a puzzled expression.

"You don't understand strange fragrance? It's the kind of fragrance that smells wonderful but is not easy to smell at ordinary times!"

The leading soldier actually gave Wu Liang a detailed description.

Obviously this soldier has no understanding or research on fragrance. If someone is really knowledgeable, he should explain to Wu Liang in a concrete way now. For example, what is the main note of the strange fragrance he is looking for? It is mixed with

What does it smell like?

It's hard to say whether he smelled the fragrance Wu Liang deliberately diffused just now.

After all, most people are not so sensitive to aromas, especially if they are mixed in such an open area, they will dissipate in a short time, and the concentration is also very limited.

Zhang Liang in the carriage could sense that he was indeed one of the best, at least his nose was sharper than the average person.

"Thank you, Master Jun, for your explanation. Maybe I am stupid. Although I passed here just now, I really didn't notice any strange smell."

Wu Liang cupped his hands and said again.

"hiss"

The leading soldier pinched his chin with a look of embarrassment on his face, "This is strange. Mr. Zhang insisted that there was a strange fragrance that he had never seen before here, and ordered me to come and find out the origin of the fragrance, but I didn't

I don’t smell anything, how can I check it?”

"Master Jun, if there is nothing else, can the villain leave?"

Wu Liang took advantage of the situation and added, and at the same time, he had a small piece of gold in his hand. He stuffed it into the hands of the leading soldier in a covert manner, and said with a smile, "I would like to treat you military masters to a drink with your little thoughts."

.”

"sensible!"

The leading soldier was really rude. He stretched out his hand and put the gold into his sleeve. The other soldiers also expressed their appreciation for Wu Liang.

After all, if they manage points in this way, they can get more points every time they turn around.

But after collecting the gold, the leading soldier did not relent, but said in a slightly better tone: "But you can't leave yet. It's not that we deliberately embarrass you. Mr. Zhang is very fascinated by this smell. If we can't find the source of the smell,

, he will definitely not give up. We will all be reprimanded by Duke Zhang later, so no one can leave until we find the strange fragrance. Duke Zhang may ask you later. You just go and make a certificate for the brothers.

It’s not that we are not doing things well, it’s just that you didn’t smell the strange fragrance either.”

"this……"

Wu Liang suddenly looked embarrassed.

"Why, you are unwilling?"

The leading soldier suddenly stared.

"I am willing to do so. It is an honor for me to be able to help you military masters. I should do my best to help you."

Wu Liang said quickly.

"Hahaha, you are so sensible and understanding of people. From now on, your business career will be smooth and you will have a lot of money."

The leading soldier immediately appreciated Wu Liang even more.

Then he sent two people to stay where they were to watch Wu Liang and Dian Wei, and then continued to search for the source of the strange smell nearby. Even the bamboo basket upside down on the corner of the street had to be turned over and carefully inspected, not daring to make any oversights.

.

As a result, the strange fragrance was not found.

Instead, a piece of dog excrement was dug out from under the bamboo basket. Several soldiers kicked the bamboo basket to the ground while yelling and cursing in anger.

It was Wu Liang who hid the sachet relatively tightly, and the soldier was a little wary of Dian Wei just now, so he didn't get too close to Dian Wei, otherwise he might have found the source of the strange fragrance.

And this is in line with Wu Liang's hard-to-get strategy.

Only hard-earned things will be cherished, and treasures will be those that are not easily taken out. If you take the initiative to offer this strange fragrance to Zhang Liang as soon as you come up, it will appear to be too purposeful, and it may even be counterproductive.

The reason why Wu Liang designed this place on Zhang Liang's only way back home, and passively waited for Zhang Liang to notice the strange smell, was for the same reason.

really.

After about a few minutes, Zhang Liang lost his patience.

The curtain of the carriage suddenly opened, Zhang Liang jumped out of the carriage with a half-crouched body, and then headed straight for the intersection with his two followers.

The leading soldier rushed forward and said with a flattering smile: "Mr. Zhang, my subordinates are doing their best to search, but they haven't found anything yet. Please wait a moment, Mr. Zhang, maybe they will be there soon."

It’s about to be found.”

"Who are those two people?"

Zhang Liang didn't answer his question at all, and directly asked Wu Liang and Dian Wei.

"When I replied to Mr. Zhang, they claimed to be merchants passing through Jinyang City. In order to prevent any omissions and miss Mr. Zhang's affairs, my subordinates detained them first and are now conducting interrogations."

The leading soldier said cautiously.

"Um……"

Zhang Liang nodded slightly, having arrived at the crossroads.

Then he stood in the center of the intersection, then closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he was savoring the smell in the air.

This took about as long as a cup of tea.

Although Zhang Liang did not open his eyes, his feet were already moving. Although his feet moved very slightly, his body also began to turn slowly.

After about a week of this.

He finally stopped, and at this moment, when he opened his eyes, he was facing Wu Liang and Dian Wei.

"Damn it, what kind of ability is this?"

Wu Liang was a little shocked when he saw this scene. He was still waiting for Zhang Liang to come over and ask questions in person when he noticed the fragrance on his body.

As a result, the person just sniffed quietly for a while, and it seemed that he had accurately located the source of the aroma. I'm afraid that's all a dog's nose can do, right?

Is it possible that Zhang Liang is also a gifted person?

Just like Bai Jingjing, she does not actually have any magical powers, but she has hearing that is different from ordinary people. Similar people have existed in later generations, and some have even appeared on TV programs and become well-known public figures.

so.

Is Zhang Liang also such a person?

Just when I was thinking about it.

Zhang Liang had already walked straight towards Wu Liang and Dian Wei with a serious face.

The group of soldiers immediately showed their weapons and ran over, guarding Zhang Liang in the center like stars holding the moon. At the same time, some soldiers blocked Wu Liang and Dian Wei's retreat. If the two of them appeared, there would be no threat at all.

If Zhang Liang makes a move, they will pounce on them together and capture the two of them first.

From this it can be seen that Zhang Liang still has some prestige in Jinyang City, especially among the defenders. Whether it is for performance or sincere protection of him, at least these soldiers respect him.

Wu Liangzi quickly looked flustered.

Dian Wei imitated what he did, but unfortunately his acting skills were still a bit poor, a little unnatural, but this small detail can be ignored.

"Are you a passing merchant?"

Looking at Wu Liang who was a little embarrassed, Zhang Liang asked expressionlessly.

"Exactly."

Wu Liang replied with a low eyebrow.

"Why did you lie when they questioned you just now?"
