Chapter 17: Accidents (1)
"Qin Ye, there is a reluctance in the next place, because I am learning to read and write now, but I have no books to borrow, and I hope that Qin Ye can borrow me a book for me to read, and the younger generation is grateful!"
In the Three Kingdoms, an era when reading is not popular, it is a luxury to be able to get books to read, not to mention that there are books at home, and families with books are really rich or expensive.
has such an opportunity, even if he is cheeky, Cao Xing has to fight for it.
Qin Ye smiled, he didn't say anything, just nodded indifferently, pointed to the books on the bookshelf and said, "I didn't expect Cao Xian's nephew to like reading so much." In that case, nephew, take a look at which ones you like, and I have books here for you to borrow! ”
Since Qin Ye is so generous, Cao Xuan is not pretentious, he directly looked at the bookshelf, and looked down from above, the books placed at the top are probably Zhongyong, Analects, Warring States Policy, Lao Tzu and other books, but seeing these books, the corners of Cao Xing's mouth raised an arc, he ignored these books, but continued to look down.
When Cao Xing's eyes moved to the middle of the bookshelf, his eyes were fixed on a certain book, he only hesitated slightly, reached out and took down the book, patted the dust on it, and hugged Qin Ye with a fist. Obviously, Cao Xing meant to ask for this book.
Qin Ye glanced at Cao Xuan in some surprise, he pointed to the bookshelf and said, "Virtuous nephew, if you want to read the texts, I'm afraid you can't rely on just one book, so you have to borrow a few more." That's my thank you for those delicious dishes! ”
However, Cao Xing shook his head with a smile and replied, "This one is enough!" ”
After Hu San sent Cao Xuan out of the mansion, he ran back, looking at Qin Ye who was still looking at the gate of the mansion at all times, he couldn't help trotting over, looked at Qin Ye and asked, "Master, I don't know what that kid wants is a book!" ”
Qin Ye glanced at Hu San, and then said, "Sun Tzu's Art of War!" ”
Hu San blinked and looked at Qin Ye, who seemed to be a little confused, but Qin Ye touched his gray beard, and said as he walked: "Originally, I thought that Cao Xing was just a businessman with a little vision, however, according to now, his previous refusal seemed not so simple, and he may have thought more in his heart!" The young man's scheming city is quite deep, hahaha! ”
After returning home, Cao Xing lightly turned the first page of Sun Tzu's Art of War, soldiers, major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be ignored.
Cao Xing savored every word, and realized the essence of Sun Wu's knowledge when he wrote this book, he was not in a hurry now, but it was only the end of Zhongping's third year, and there was still a period of time before the beginning of this troubled era.
In the early morning of the next day, Cao Xing and Chen Hu stood in the center of the field, Cao Xing's right hand was placed in front of him, and his left hand was placed in front of his chest, ready for the fighting style, Chen Hu glanced at Cao Xing suspiciously, but still didn't ask more, he shouted directly, and smashed it towards Cao Xing with his fist.
However, in the face of Chen Hu's menacing, Cao Xuan did not panic at all, and easily dodged with a light sideways dodge, and then he stood up with a foot, quite a golden rooster independent taste, and directly punched Chen Hu on the back of the head.
Under the pain, Chen Hu couldn't care so much, suddenly turned around, went all out, his two pairs of fists kept falling like raindrops, and Cao Xuan faced Chen Hu's pair of fists, did not choose to hard-connect, but chose to keep dodging, although there are occasional fists that will hit Cao Xing's body, but after all, it is a minority, so Cao Xuan can still bear it.
The two fought for about half an hour, both panting and looking at each other, unable to move any further.
In the end, Chen Hu gasped, waved his hand at Cao Xing and said: "Big brother, I won't fight, I won't fight, you said you want me to test it, whether your boxing skills are combative, I fought for a long time, and only a few punches fell on you, and you just kept dodging, looking for my gap, from time to time punching me in the back, or kicking my ass, how do you want me to fight!" ”
Chen Hu is an anxious person, and once he encounters something that he has nothing to do, he will show great helplessness, but Cao Xing smiled when he saw this.
Most of the moves he used just now are in modern fighting, thinking about the boxing games he watched back then, those boxing champions and opponents are not blindly hard fighting, their dodging skills are superb, even if they stand in front of the opponent and let the opponent fight, the opponent can never punch them, this is the master.
Among the boxing techniques used by Cao Xing, there is the shadow of Bajiquan and the shadow of Muay Thai, although Chen Hu has not been knocked to the ground now, but Cao Xuan also knows the reason, Chen Hu is not only as powerful as a cow, but more importantly, the skin is rough and the meat is thick, the attack is high and the defense is also high, it is completely a human tank, if you want to completely knock it down, I am afraid it is not so easy, and you must study and practice hard in the future to achieve results.
But at this point today, Cao Xing feels very satisfied, at least it proves that his theory can still be used in practice, as long as I train day after day, year after year, it will eventually become a family of its own.
"Big brother, I can't beat you, but you didn't defeat me either, I think it's a tie, I'm ready to go on patrol!" Chen Hu gasped twice, as if he didn't want to stay here for a long time, so he was ready to slip away.
Cao Xing smiled, this time Chen Hu just didn't want to let himself be defeated, so he said so, but at this moment, the door of the entire compound was suddenly knocked open, Chen Hu was excited, immediately raised the stick in his hand, and glared angrily in that direction.
"Who!"
And Cao Xing couldn't help frowning, without the consent of others, it is very impolite to be good at intruding into other people's residences, let alone this ancient place that valued etiquette.
However, after seeing the person who broke in, Cao He and Chen Hu both glanced at each other, and then immediately went to support him, because the person who broke in was none other than Liu Wan, who was panting and sweating at this moment, and looked like he had run all the way.
Chen Hu immediately fetched a bowl of water and brought it to Liu Wan, wanting him to take it and speak slowly, but Liu Wan pushed someone away and looked at Cao Xuan with a nervous face: "Dongjia, something happened!" ”
Liu Wan is a relatively stable person, so Cao Xing can rest assured that he will entrust Hantian Restaurant to him, but today his expression is so frightened, it seems that he has really encountered a big event.
Cao Xuan immediately went to the study to change clothes, and Chen Hu immediately found three or five people, all holding sticks, and then Cao Xing was under the leadership of Liu Wan, and rushed all the way to the Hantian Restaurant, but at this moment, the Hantian Restaurant had already been surrounded by people on three floors and three floors outside.
Cao Xuan and the others struggled to squeeze in from the crowd and walked into the Cold Sky Restaurant, but there was a loud cry inside.
The surrounding tables and chairs, as well as the food on them, were all smashed to pieces, and the ground was in shambles, and somewhere, three people were wailing and crying around a fallen man.
"Fourth brother, you died so miserably, why are these people so vicious, don't you just want to drink two more sips of spirits, why do they want to poison you!"
"We are all hard-working people, why is the sky unfair to us, running so hard every day, and in the end we have to be calculated!"
"We are brothers, we are kind to others everywhere, why should we be calculated by villains!"
Seeing the three of them crying there and crying for their mother, plus the dead man on the ground, the people around them were all pointing and pointing and talking, some expressed sympathy, some expressed unbearable, but when they saw Cao Xing, they didn't speak again, and directly turned their faces away, as if they didn't see it.
And in this process, Cao Xing also figured out what was going on.
Liu Wan told Cao Xuan that he was doing a good job today, but suddenly four people left, and came in to see what the four people were wearing, they should be people who were working as a day worker outside.
At that time, Liu Wan was settling accounts, he asked the guy to receive the four people, those four people seemed to be ordinary people, and they seemed to be quite easy to talk, he let Xiao Er serve two jars of spirits and some side dishes.
The four of them all ate and laughed, but one of the four seemed to be particularly good at wine, drinking bowl after bowl, while the other three people were just eating vegetables, Liu Wan also heard the three people laughing and scolding, and the other person said that he was a good drinker, and he put a table of good dishes and didn't eat and went to drink.
As a result, the drinker ignored their words at all, and drank wildly, and as a result, after a jar of wine, he was just about to open the second jar of wine, but he suddenly foamed at the mouth and lay on the table, originally everyone thought that he was just because he drank too much, so he passed out, but after a while, he finally found that it was not right, and when the three people went to probe his snort again, they found that his snort was completely absent.
A person no longer has the breath to enter or exit, then it means that the person seems to be dead, and the scene in front of him appears.
If such a thing happens, according to the case-handling procedures of later generations, the two jars of wine should be handed over to the government immediately and let the forensic doctor identify whether there are any toxic substances in them, but in this world, it seems impossible.
Cao Xing's head hurt a little, but he knew that as the boss here, what he should do now was to quickly calm the emotions of the three people, Cao Xuan walked over and patted one of them on the shoulder, but when the person looked back at his appearance clearly, he suddenly broke out, jumped up directly, grabbed Cao Xing's collar and shook it constantly.
"You give back my fourth brother's life!"
