The old and the young who came were none other than Pang Degong and his subordinate Pang Tong. It is said that the slave is just the son of his distant brother, but Pang Tong's parents died when he was very young. Pang Degong saw that he was pitiful and took him with him, and later found that this son was ugly but unusually intelligent.

So he had the idea of cultivating Pang Tong, so he took him by his side for five years. The current Pang Tong has been carefully cultivated and trained by Pang Degong, and has become very good, both in knowledge and insight, far beyond people of the same age.

Today, Pang Degong brought Pang Tong here, because he felt that he had nothing to hand over to him. Therefore, I want my old friend to see if I can accept him as an apprentice.

As soon as Mr. Shui Jing saw Pang Degong coming, he immediately introduced Han Feilai to him. When Pang Degong heard that this person turned out to be Liu Bei's military Han Fei, he was taken aback. Xin said: "This Liu Bei is so good, is the military division under his command already seeking Jingzhou?" ”

Seeing Pang Degong's surprised expression, Han Fei stepped forward and saluted, "Han Fei has seen Pang Degong. Pang Degong hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Does the Han military division have important business when he comes to Jingzhou?" ”

Han Fei is also a human spirit, and when he heard him ask, he replied with a smile: "Liu Jingzhou is a relative of the Han family, although he has not been in contact with my lord for a long time, but now the Han family is in a small state. My lord sent me here to reconcile with Liu Jingzhou, and watch each other in this troubled world. ”

Pang Degong nodded after hearing this, but he didn't believe Han Fei's words at all. If you don't believe it, you don't believe it, but Pang Degong, you don't plan to offend Han Fei, it's really that the world is so difficult, why are you making enemies for yourself. So after the head, Pang Degong came to Mr. Shui Jing, called Pang Tong to his side, and then said to Mr. Shui Jing: "This is my son Pang Tong, I brought him here today to let you see if he is qualified to worship under your door." ”

As soon as Pang Degong said, Mr. Shui Jing suddenly became interested. So he looked at Pang Tong and said, "Have you ever studied?" ”

"Mr. Hui, I naturally read it."

"Okay, then tell me about the books you've read?"

"Mr. Hui, I have read the Four Books and the Five Classics, and the University Mean."

"Okay, then I'll test you, do you dare to respond?" Mr. Shui Jing asked at Pang Tong. At this time, Pang Tong hadn't answered, and Han Fei interjected: "Wait, Mr. Shuijing, I also have someone on my side and Mr. Wang to investigate on my behalf." ”

Han Fei said as he dragged Zhuge Liang in front of him. Mr. Shui Jing had also paid attention to Zhuge Liang before, but Han Fei didn't make an introduction, so he wouldn't take the initiative to ask. At this moment, Han Fei pushed Zhuge Liang in front of him, and everyone, including Pang Tong, looked at Zhuge Liang seriously.

"Okay, then you two come forward! I have a total of three questions, and you will answer them separately! Whoever answers correctly will be the best! Do you have any objections? ”

"Please sir question!" Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang said in unison. From then on, the two began to fight. Mr. Shui Jing nodded and said, "The first question is the Analect of the Sayings: Learn and learn... The next paragraph. It's up to both of you to write it! ”

I saw the two of them write at the same time, Zi said: Learn and learn it, it is not pleasant, there are friends from afar, it is not happy, people do not know and are not ashamed, and they are not gentlemen. At this point, the two of them stopped writing almost at the same time, and Mr. Shui Jing glanced at what the two had written, and couldn't help but nod and said, "You all answered the first question correctly." But this second question is gone. ”

"Please sir question!" The two spoke in unison.

Mr. Shui Jing said yes, and then said: "This second question is a famous article written silently in Mencius about being born in sorrow and dying in peace. ”

If you want to say that everyone is familiar with the Analects, it is normal to be able to write. But "Mencius" is even worse, and even if ordinary people have read it, it is impossible to write it accurately and silently.

Sure enough, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong both frowned, but then the two of them almost picked up their pens and wrote hard.

Shun is in the acres, Fu Shuo is lifted between the plates, the rubber is lifted in the fish and salt, Guan Yiwu is raised in the Shi, Sun Shu Ao is raised in the sea, and Baili Xi is held in the city. Therefore, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically. People are permanent, and then they can change; Trapped in the heart, balanced in the mind, and then done; Signify in color, sound in sound, and then metaphor. If you enter, you will not be able to go home, and if you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will die. Then he was born in sorrow and died in peace.

After this paragraph was silent, everyone present nodded secretly, and said in their hearts: "That's it, these two people are really capable." At such a young age, he can write this article verbatim, and it seems that he has definitely put in a lot of effort. ”

Sure enough, Mr. Shuijing nodded and said, "Yes, both of you write well!" It is indeed hard work to be able to write this article silently at a young age. In that case, I'm going to come up with the third question as well. ”

The two glanced at each other, and there was a sense of pity in their eyes. After looking at each other, the two said in unison: "Please also ask Mr. to ask for the question." ”

"Okay, you don't need to write this third question silently. What I want to ask is, what do you think of the general trend in the world? ”

As soon as the third question came out, Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang were silent for a moment. Zhuge Liangxin said: It's so dangerous, if you don't come to Jingzhou, you don't know how to answer this question. But this time, with Han Fei coming to Jingzhou, Han Fei discussed the matter with himself along the way. So at this time, his face froze, and then he picked up his pen and began to write.

Pang Tong saw Zhuge Liang move his pen, but he didn't move. Just because the question was so big, he didn't know where to start. If you scribble, it's better not to answer at all. However, Pang Tong is not a person who admits defeat easily, and with the pressure brought by Zhuge Liang, his brain is spinning rapidly. He pondered Mr. Shuijing's words carefully for a while, and really let him come up with something. So he was overjoyed, and then he took up his pen and wrote.

Everyone in the room looked at the two of them with bated breath, but they were all unaware, both of them were writing with their hearts, and they had reached the realm of selflessness. Finally, Zhuge Liang stopped writing first and let out a long sigh. And not long after he stopped writing, Pang Tong also settled on the brush in his hand.

The two of them took two steps back, giving up space for Mr. Water Mirror, Pang Degong, Han Fei and others to judge. Mr. Shui Jing stood in front of the two articles, nodding his head while reading, the level of these two articles is very high, but Zhuge Liang is indeed better and better in comparison.

Of course, Mr. Shui Jing will not announce the results immediately, and he will not be too late until everyone else has finished reading it.

The second watch, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation, ask for a collection, ask for a reward. It's been a long time since I've received a reward, so I sincerely ask the majority of book friends to appreciate some! Thank you!
