Chapter 6: Tuberculosis and Loyalty

In the Yingchuan Penglai Inn, two fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers are drinking, the first young man is sitting in a precarious position, and is dressed in gorgeous clothes, his face is like a crown of jade, and he knows that he is from everyone at a glance; The next young man leaned on the windowsill, dressed in plain clothes, with a haggard face and a look of indifference.

The young man in Chinese clothes poured a glass of wine for the plain-clothed young man, and said: "Zhicai, my family heard about a famous doctor some time ago, it is said that his ancestor is the imperial doctor of the palace, and it seems that he is going to visit friends in Yingchuan recently. ”

I saw the plain-clothed young man waving his hand indifferently, "Wen Ruo bothered, but I know my own body, I have seen so many Langzhong before, there is no improvement, I have no hope, I really don't care if I am not a famous doctor, let it be fate." But I don't know if Wen Ruo is ready for this spring meeting? Every year it is the same form, the same result, boring and tasteless. ”

Yes, the two teenagers in the inn are Yingchuan Xun Yu Xun Wenruo and Xizhong Xi Zhicai. The two are already close friends, and their reputation among their peers in Yingchuan is skyrocketing. Xun Yu is Xun Zi, his grandfather Xun Shu is famous in the world, known as the Divine King, his father Xun Qi once served as Jinan Minister, his uncle Xun Shuang once served as Sikong, is the second of Xun's Eight Dragons, Xun Yu himself was also called "Wang Zuozhicai" by Nanyang celebrity He Hao, after serving Cao Cao, Cao Cao often called Xun Yu "my son's room", which shows Xun Yu's talent; Although there are few records in the history books, it helped Cao Cao quickly consolidate his power in the early stage, laying a solid foundation for the later development, and he was good at military tricks, and his military attainments were definitely not under Guo Jia.

Xun Yu couldn't help pouting when he heard Xi Zhicai's words, and just wanted to speak, he saw an eight- or nine-year-old boy walking at the door of the inn, looking like an old god, so he said: "Guo Jia, why don't you kid study in the academy well, and you sneak out?" ”

Xiao Guo Jia grabbed Xun Yu's wine glass and poured it into his mouth, like an old drunkard who hadn't drunk for three years, and then grabbed a handful of beef on the plate to eat, ignoring Xun Yu, but turned his head to Xi Zhicai and said: "Sick ghost, I heard a good poem today, I feel that even you may not be able to make it." ”

"Oh? Read it and listen, is there anyone better than Zhicai? When Xun Yu heard it, he felt a little incredible, Xi Zhicai's name is famous in Yingchuan, not to mention the younger generation, even his uncle Xun Shuang is full of praise, in Yingchuan can barely be compared with Xi Zhicai, except for himself, his nephew Xun Yu. And now Guo Jia, a little clever ghost, said that there are poems comparable to those of the drama Zhicai, and he can't help but be curious.

I saw Guo Jia take another sip of wine, and then shook his head and read: "The jasper is made into a tree high, and ten thousand green silk ribbons hang down." I don't know who cut out the thin leaves, and the spring breeze in February is like scissors. How about it, sick man, I feel that this poetic conception is very good, and the talent of the poet does not have to be bad for you. ”

Xi Zhicai's eyes lit up, sat up slightly, and asked, "The artistic conception is indeed very good, Xiao Guozi, where did you hear the poems?" "Today, a ranger came to study in the academy, and I listened to him read it, but I heard that this poem was not written by him, it seems to have been written by a person named Su or something, and I didn't hear it too clearly outside the door."

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Let's go, go back and see, the artistic conception of this poem really doesn't look like it was written by a ranger, if you have the opportunity, you really want to see the person who wrote the poem. Is Wen Ruo interested in being together? ”

Xun Yu glanced at Xi Zhicai, and said secretly: "I know that I have always liked to make friends with talented people, but I use this to squeeze me, Zhicai, Zhicai, is it possible that I was born to be bullied by you?" ”

The three of them returned to Yingchuan Academy, only to see a large number of people at the door of the church (the church here is not a Christian missionary hall, but a hall where the academy teachers teach and educate people), and they all stretched their necks to look inside, Xun Yu was very curious, grabbed a student and asked, "What are you looking at, is there anything strange?" ”

The student turned around and saw that it was Xi Zhicai and his party, so he put away the dissatisfaction on his face, and patiently explained to them: "Today, Shi Guangyuan brought a ranger to the academy, saying that he was going to worship the mountain gate to study, and he also brought a young man over, saying that he was talented, comparable to Zhicai Wenruo, and said that the young man wanted to ask to see Pang Degong. The students were not convinced, and they talked to the young man in front of the hall! However, the young man was really powerful, and several of his classmates were defeated. ”

As soon as the words fell, they heard a commotion in the hall, and the three of them entered the door to take a look, only to see a red-clothed student with a blushing face, a look of disbenement, and a young man in plain green pants said: "The toad in the well wears green pants." "When everyone heard it, they felt that something was wrong, this is something they can't afford to lose, and when they lose their literary talent, they start scolding, is this to lose their own face and the face of the college?

I saw that the young man looked back at the student, frowned, snorted coldly, and said, "The shrimp in the pot are wearing red robes." He turned his head and ignored the student. As soon as everyone heard it, okay, this is not the one who suffers, and in a blink of an eye, he ridiculed back, and the battle was quite neat, this is really a loss and a loser.

Xi Zhicai also heard it in the back, and felt that this person did have some literary talent, although I didn't hear it before, I don't know what kind of collision the two sides had, which led to the discordant scene now, but I can also feel that this person is not lacking in urgency, it is estimated that the poems chanted by Guo Jia before should be from this person, so he stepped forward and arched his hand: "Brother Tai is good at writing, I am loyal in the next drama, I don't know what Brother Tai is called?" ”

The young man in plain clothes also replied: "Don't dare to be, in Suxiu, Xiachangshan, Brother Tai is Yingchuan Opera Zhongju Zhicai?" ”

"Oh? Could it be that Brother Tai recognizes it? ”

"Yingchuan talents are all over the world, and during this period of travel, I have heard of the great talents of Yingchuan Academy. I heard that Brother Zhicai has a lot of knowledge in his chest, he is proficient in the six arts of poetry and calligraphy, and the art of war is even more extensive. ”

"Brother Su has a good reputation, when I came, I heard that Brother Su was endowed with a poem about the willows, and he was very loyal, but the humanistic scenery is just a sauker dancing ink, when the current situation is turbulent today, I don't look at Brother Tai like a person who dances and writes ink, I'm afraid it's not a tongue war in Yingchuan, right?"

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! After listening to this, Su Xiu applauded and smiled: "Qin Shimingyue Han Shiguan, the Long March has not been returned." But to make the dragon city fly, do not teach Hu Ma to Yin Mountain! The horse newly crossed the white jade saddle, and the moonlight was cold on the battlefield. The sound of iron drums at the head of the city is still vibrating, and the blood of the golden knife in the box has not dried! After reading it, he smiled and left.

Xi Zhicai pondered for a moment, smiled slightly, and said, "Interesting, interesting!" This person is very interesting, Wen Ruo, I'm afraid that you and I are the frogs at the bottom of the well. After saying that, he also walked away. Xun Yu and Guo Jia also followed, only to see that Xi Zhicai had already put away his indifferent look, looked up at the sky and said, "Maybe it's really going to change, maybe I should really go out for a walk." Wen Ruo, are you interested in accompanying me to see the heroes in this world?"

Shi Guangyuan and Xu Fu chased after him and asked, "Didn't Brother Su want to visit Pang Degong, why did he leave like this?" Su Xiu saw that the two of them looked puzzled, and smiled slightly, "Since someone helps, please go home and prepare some wine and food, I will use it in the evening." Shi Tao was slightly stunned, then reacted, also smiled without saying a word, and pulled Xu Fu to go home.

At night, the moonlight is hazy, and the backyard of an elegant bamboo hut on the mountainside is slightly lit. On the path not far from the bamboo house, two young men appeared, followed by a little boy. The group of three walked slowly towards the bamboo house, and the little boy pulled one of the young men with a slightly pale face and asked, "Sick man, are you really leaving?" What should I do if you leave, Wen Ruo is always serious, and he will be young next year, but he is like an old pedant, thinking about how to prosper a man all day long, but he doesn't know that the destiny of heaven is difficult to violate, after all, it is difficult for people to overcome the sky. ”

"Xiao Guozi, it's too early to say this, it's just to see someone, how can you think so much, don't be delayed by your own cleverness. Let's go, the front is here. ”

Xi Zhicai glanced at Xun Yu who was lying on the gun, and shook his head helplessly, he also knew Xun Yu's ambition, or the ambition of most of the Xun family, but the Han family has gone through four hundred years of ups and downs, and it has been corrupted inside. However, Xun Yu doesn't seem to understand the current situation of the division of the heroes, listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement, he is biased towards the big man, and he is determined to persuade no matter how he goes, although Xi Zhicai doesn't want his friends to delay his life, but he has no choice but to let it go.

Xun Yu heard Guo Jia's words, and paused slightly, but the idea of loyalty and patriotism has been rooted in his thinking, even if the world has no hope, he will not change. Today, he came to Shi Guangyuan's house with Xi Zhicai, originally to meet Su Xiu, who made them not low, although he also knew that maybe this time Xi Zhicai would end his studies and prepare to implement his ambitions, but he didn't think that Su Xiu's remarks were worth Xi Zhicai's rethinking of his life, because he knew very well that Xi Zhicai had no idea of becoming a leader for the time being, but when Su Xiu played a brief game, he saw the solemnity on Xi Zhicai's face that he had never seen before, and he also wanted to see what charm this young man had. can make Xi Zhicai pay so much attention.
