Chapter 5 Apprenticeship and Chance Encounter with a Scribe

Cui Hong is gone, and no one knows where he went.

I hope to see Mr. again in the future, Ma Chao thought to himself.

At this moment, Ma Chao saw Ma Teng walk in, "Mr. Cui is gone?" ”

"Sir just left."

I'm looking for you for something.

"Father, please speak."

"Come with me." Ma Teng walked in front, and Ma Chao followed.

Ma Teng led Ma Chao to his study, and after the father and son sat down, Ma Teng said, "Chao'er, what are your plans?" ”

"What are you going to do? Of course, I learned martial arts and read books every day. "Ma Chao doesn't know why.

"No, I'm asking you what you're doing with your studies. Mr. Cui has left, you are not good at school, you are not falling behind. Ma Teng stared at Ma Chao and said.

At this time, Ma Chao remembered what Cui Hong said before leaving, that is, your father has his plans. Don't......

"I wonder what my father is going to do?" Ma Chao asked rhetorically.

"Oh? I was originally asking you, but why is it that you are asking me now? Okay, since you've asked that, I'll tell you directly. My father wants to move his family to Liangzhou, and let you apprentice in Liangzhou. ”

Liang, Liangzhou, are you going to Liangzhou so early? Ma Chao was still a little unacceptable to this, but he could only say: "Everything is arranged by my father." ”

"Okay, let's go in five days."

Five days later, Ma Teng's family set off. To be honest, Ma Teng's family really doesn't have anything, two Yahuan, two entourages, Ma Teng, Liu, Ma Chao and his younger brother, Ma Xiu, who is more than two years old, plus some property, so many things.

Soon after, they arrived in Longxi, and the place they arrived at was where Ma Teng and his father lived before, and they couldn't break it anymore. Also, no one wanted it for free back then, so you say you have to break it now.

There is no way, find someone to renovate and rebuild a big house. Before the house is built, you can only live somewhere else.

Fortunately, Ma Teng also has an uncle here, although his mother died young, his uncle has always been good to him. In the past, when his father was poor, his uncle helped the two of them, and his mother was such a brother, and the other relatives were gone. After Ma Teng returned to Fufeng, he would ask someone to bring things to his uncle during the New Year's holidays.

This time he didn't tell his uncle when he came back, he wanted to surprise him, but this time his uncle was able to get double happiness. One is the surprise of Ma Teng's return, and the other is the surprise brought by Ma Teng's family. The Ma Teng family went to his uncle's house, and his uncle was very happy. His uncle was the only one himself, so he was very happy that his relatives came.

More than half a month passed, the house was finished, and Ma Teng's family moved to a new home.

On this day, Ma Teng took Ma Chao to Longxian County, Hanyang, and said that he would take him to apprentice. Ma Chao heard that the teacher he wanted to worship was surnamed Yan, called Yan Zhong.

Who is this Yan Zhong, why haven't you heard of it, Ma Chao, who is surnamed Yan, knows four of them. One is Yuan Shu's subordinate, called Yan Xiang, the other is Zhang Lu's advisor, called Yan Pu, and the other is Han Sui's son-in-law Yan Xing, the last one seems to be Yan Rou of Wei.

That Yan Xing seems to be from Liangzhou, will they have any relationship, maybe that Yan Zhong is Yan Xing's father. If Yan Xing is here, he wants to know that Ma Chao pointed him out a cheap father, and it is estimated that he can split Ma Chao.

When he arrived at Yan Zhong's Mansion, he let his subordinates take the gifts he brought, and Ma Teng took Ma Chao into the living room of Yan Mansion.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a person standing in the room, with a solemn face and a wise demeanor. This person was smiling at Ma Teng and his son.

Ma Teng pulled Ma Chao and hurriedly walked in front of this person, and said, "Little nephew Ma Teng, I have seen my uncle." ”

When he was young, Yan Zhong and Ma Ping (Ma Teng's father) were friends, and Yan Zhong was not as old as Ma Ping, so Ma Teng's title was not wrong.

Although Ma Ping has no great skills, let alone a university education, he is open-minded, broad-minded, sincere, and even more righteous to his friends, and he is very respected by his friends. That's why I can make friends with a celebrity like Yan Zhong. …,

"No need to be polite."

"This is the dog Ma Chao. Chao'er, I haven't seen ...... yet."

Before Ma Teng finished speaking, Yan Zhong spoke, "Shoucheng, you are here to let Ma Chao apprentice." In this case, Ma Chao, let me ask you, are you willing to worship me as a teacher? ”

Although it was an inquiry, Yan Zhong's tone was unquestionable, and it meant as if you could only worship me as a teacher.

Ma Chao was unhappy in his heart, and said that Yan Zhong had never even heard of his name, and such a person was also a celebrity today? It's really fake, why is there such a big gap between this and what I think. Alas, Ma Chao secretly thought to himself, Ma Teng's coke was broken, isn't this what he came for today, but Ma Chao next to him didn't react, Ma Teng thought that this kid wouldn't be stupid with joy.

So Ma Teng patted Ma Chao on the back with his hand, "You kid, you don't want to apprentice to the teacher, what are you doing stupidly?" ”

Ma Chao came back to his senses at this time, and reluctantly knelt down to bow to Yan Zhongxing, "Disciple Ma Chao, I have seen the teacher." ”

"Get up, all of you sit. I, Yan Zhongnian, am no longer confused, and I accepted disciples for the first time in my life, all because of the appointment with the old man in the past. Today, Ma Chao, you worship under my door, that is, I am my disciple, I don't ask you to benefit the world, but I want to be without fault. Now that you have misbehaved and are evil, you will be expelled from the teacher as a teacher, and you and I have nothing to do with each other, so you should remember. ”

"No, the disciple obeys the master's orders."

"Okay, Chao'er, you stay, Shoucheng, if you don't have anything to do, go back, Chao'er can be here with me."

Ma Teng felt particularly embarrassed, this Yan Zhong was clearly picking up customers, but what could he say.

"Ah, the little nephew is retiring, uncle take care." After saying that, Ma Teng left, and gave Ma Chao a look before leaving, which means that you kid will study hard for me, and if you don't learn well, you will suffer.

Ma Chao looked at Ma Teng and was a little cold, let's go quickly, if you don't go, it will affect me, Ma Chao thought to himself.

Ma Teng left and returned to Longxi. Only Ma Chao and Yan Zhong were left.

"Chao'er, what have you learned?" Yan Zhong asked Ma Chao.

"The Analects and Mencius."

"And which one of them do you like best?"

"Disciple, I like the most in "Mencius", 'If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will be good to the world'."

"Okay, I like this sentence very much."

"The disciple dared to ask the teacher, why do you ask the disciple this?"

"Since you asked, it doesn't hurt to talk to you. Whether it is the Analects or Mencius, it is good to study. But when encountering troubled times, it is not very useful, what the teacher is good at is the way of soldiers, and of course it teaches you. And the reason why I ask you is to let you understand that in a peaceful and prosperous world, you can learn anything. But in troubled times, when there is a focus, what do you think is most useful to you, do you know? ”

"No, the disciple understands."

Ma Chao suddenly realized that Ma Teng did not hesitate to leave his hometown to come to Liangzhou for what he wanted, and he would do everything to let himself worship under Yan Zhongmen. It turns out that this is the case, Yan Zhong is a contemporary celebrity, or a celebrity who is good at soldiers, this person is amazing, Ma Chao thought that he was worshipping a rotten Confucianism who was full of mouths.

Now that Ma Chao's heart is relaxed, he doesn't feel like Yan Zhong like before, he thinks he is so cute, he is simply the cutest person.

"Okay......" Yan Zhong had just said two words when he heard someone knock on the door.

Outside the door was a subordinate of the Yan Mansion, and after coming in, he handed Yan Zhong a greeting post, Yan Zhong opened it and looked at it, his eyebrows raised, "Please let him in." ”

The next person promised to go out, and the person who came should be a junior, but if he is older than Yan Zhong, or a celebrity or a Confucian, Yan Zhong will definitely go out to greet him. It is estimated that he may be a child of a big family, because Yan Zhong made an invitation, and Ma Chao analyzed. …,

After a while, there was another knock at the door, "Please come in." Yan Zhong said.

The person who came into the house, closed the door, walked in front of Yan Zhong, and bowed to salute, "Student Wuwei Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe has seen Mr. ”

"Wenhe doesn't have to be polite." Yan Zhong said and gave him a little help.

After Jia Xu finished the salute, he nodded to Ma Chao, who was now speechless with excitement.

What is it for, do you still need to ask, what is in front of you is the first time Ma Chao has seen the cattle of the Three Kingdoms. What, what, Nanhua and Maten? Then don't talk about it, it's true that Ma Teng is a figure of the Three Kingdoms, but his ability can't reach the level of a cow at all, and in Ma Chao's eyes, he can't compare with a heavyweight like Jia Xu. As for Nanhua, is the old monster a human, remember that the old monster is not a human.

The characters that can only be seen in books are finally alive today, do you think Ma Chao can not be excited.

Jia Xu is twenty-six years old this year, one year older than Ma Teng, and Ma Chao looks at him like he is in his thirties. Jia Xu's appearance is not surprising, and he can't find it in the pile. But the eyes are very distinctive, the eyes are not big, but they are very bright, giving people a feeling that cannot be taken lightly. Wearing a green shirt and a sword hanging from his waist, the overall feeling is that Jia Xu is like an uncle next door.

Ma Chao secretly sighed, it is really unseemly, the ancients were honest and did not deceive me. Just look at the person who feels that such a harmless appearance of humans and animals is the legendary poisoner of the troubled country, Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, who is the best at self-protection.

If he didn't know that the person in front of him was Jia Xu, Ma Chao would never associate the person in front of him with the name Jia Xu. Similarly, if Ma Chao didn't know about Jia Xu's "glorious deeds" in the future, he would not have thought that the person in front of him would be able to do so many great things.

Ma Chao was secretly sighing, and at this time, Yan Zhong pointed at Ma Chao and said, "Wenhe, this is the disciple I just accepted today, Fufeng Ma Chao." ”

Jia Xu was slightly surprised when he heard this, this Yan Zhong is a person who has never accepted disciples, how did he make an exception today? Looks like there's something unknown here.

"Fufeng Ma Chao has seen Mr." Originally, Ma Chao was going to bow down, but Jia Xu reacted quickly and helped Ma Chao a long time ago. "It doesn't have to be that way. Wuwei Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe. Jia Xu hugged Ma Chao with his fist.

"Alright, you all sit down and talk." Yan Zhong had spoken, and of course the two of them were respectful and obedient.

In fact, Yan Zhong had met Jia Xu once before, when Jia Xu was still studying. The two have met, but they haven't had too deep contact. Now Jia Xu has learned something and started to study. And Liangzhou celebrities were the first to recommend Yan Zhong, so Jia Xu came to visit him first and asked a few questions by the way.

After sitting down, Jia Xu and Yan Zhong talked, and Ma Chao was the listener next to him. The two chatted for about half an hour, and Jia Xu said goodbye to Yan Zhong and Ma Chao and left. Jia Xu gave Ma Chao a good impression, at least Jia Xu would not look down on Ma Chao because of his age.

Indeed, although Ma Chao is only five years old, Jia Xu will never look down on anyone and is polite to anyone. Don't look at Ma Chao is only five years old now, what about ten years later, twenty years later, it is precisely because of Jia Xu's character that he can protect himself in troubled times, of course, there are other factors, but this is indeed one of the indispensable factors for self-preservation.

After Jia Xu left, Yan Zhong asked, "Chao'er, what do you think of Wen He?" ”

Ma Chao thought for a moment and said: "Wuwei Jia Xu Jia Wenhe is a great talent in the world. ”

Originally, Ma Chao wanted to say that the poisoners of the troubled country came, but he reacted that he was in the late Han Dynasty, how can he explain this.

After Yan Zhong heard this, he didn't say anything, just nodded slightly. After a while, Yan Zhong said: "Chao'er, Wen He is good and peaceful, and he is indeed a great talent. But Wen He values himself too much and is good at self-preservation, and he doesn't know whether it's a blessing or a curse. ”

Then Yan Zhong told Ma Chao a story, which few people know, and Ma Chao heard it for the first time. …,

said that many years ago, Jia Xu once went out and met a friend, and the two chatted very speculatively, so they walked together.

When the two passed by a river, they heard someone shouting for help, and it turned out that someone was drowning. At that time, there were only two people in a radius of several miles, Jia Xu and his friend, and as soon as Jia Xu heard someone shouting, he immediately pulled his friend to another place.

My friend didn't know, so he asked Jia Xu, saying Brother Wen He, what are you going to do, people are shouting for help, why don't you go to save people and still pull me away?

Help me? Originally, Jia Xu wanted to pretend to be stupid, but it seemed that he couldn't. I can only tell my friends very seriously, the drowning man is not related to me, why should I save him. Don't say I don't know how to water, and even if I did, I wouldn't save him.

When my friend heard this, he threw Jia Xu's hand to the side and said, Okay, Jia Wenhe, you don't want to help, right, then I'll go, don't pull me!

As a result, Jia Xu pulled him alive and didn't let him go into the water to save people, and it took a while before letting go. Seeing this, my friend hurriedly jumped into the water to save people, and really rescued the drowning man, and the person was still breathing when he was rescued ashore, and his friend hurriedly rescued him, and finally rescued the person back, and then sat on the ground tired and gasped. While gasping back, he said Jia Xu, saying that I only saw it clearly now, it turns out that you are such a person.

Jia Xu smiled slightly and said that if it weren't for me, you probably wouldn't be alive today.

My friend said, "So I have to thank you?"

Jia Xu said that there is no need, why don't you let you save people, it is because if you go down at that time, the drowning person will pull you as a life-saving straw with all his might, and you are likely to not be able to get up at the end. Only when the drowning man has exhausted his strength can you all come up if you go down again.

My friend said, what would you do if I went down and drowned.

Jia Xu said, then I'll go directly, if you don't listen to my advice and drown, I won't care about anything.

My friend looked up to the sky and smiled.

When he reached the end of the day, his friend left a letter and left with the drowning man. The content of the letter reads: Brother Wenhe, the younger brother is the last time to call you that. The younger brother admires your talent very much, but he does not dare to agree with your style of doing things.

Looking at his friend's letter, Jia Xu couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

Listening to the story, Ma Chao was also thinking
