Early the next morning, Zhuge Liang, Lu Jing, and Li Yan gathered around the chess table of Lu Jing Pharmacy, talking about yesterday's bookstore while playing chess.

"Hahahaha~! Laugh at me! Lu Jing sat at the chess table and watched the game, laughing wildly with joy, "Isn't it also Zhuanghu?" Ha ha. At the same time, he looked at Li Yan, who was blushing.

Seeing that Ge Zhuang was still calm, and Li Yan didn't say anything, after Ge Zhuang put down a son, Lu Jing felt that it was a bit too much to laugh again, so he also stopped. Then all three of them stared at the game quietly, and this lasted for a while.

"Elder Li."

"Huh?" Li Yan sat up straight, did not bow his head, his eyes looked down at the chessboard and replied casually, "Ge Zhuang has never seen this move...... The last game was folded like this, you have to think about it. ”

Originally, Zhuge Liang wanted to ask some questions, but because Li Yan's mind was all on chess, he didn't speak again. The atmosphere was quiet again......

"Did you just want to say something? Go ahead. After pondering, Li Yan dropped a heavy hand, and then looked much more relaxed.

When Zhuge Liang was second, Li Yan felt that his confidence was too early, but he still asked him puzzled: "Don't you think about it more?" ”

"Shuping, after playing chess for so long, don't you know that the little brother Gezhuang is good at long-term calculations? That's why you fell so fast...... I'm guessing you're going to end up here, right? ”

"Haha, I guessed wrong again, but I still think it's good to be here, you're quite risky there, and Uncle Zhong is in his arms."

Zhuge Liang completely ignored Lu Jing's side argument, he had already calculated this local change, Li Yan certainly hoped that the black chess would take a risk there, but he didn't calculate the black chess in the middle and Da Fei's clever hand to deliberately lure the black chess to play like that, "Li Lao, are the simplified books used in the library "Urgent Chapter" and "Nine Chapters Counting"? Then after leaving a son, Zhuge Liang continued to ask the question he had just wanted to ask.

"Hmm." Li Yan's subordinates are very imposing, and they are almost instantaneous.

"Oh, that's good." Zhuge Liang made a sound.

The so-called "Urgent Chapter" is a comprehensive textbook, focusing on literacy. The content includes the name of the state, the introduction of silk weaving, plants, animals, agricultural products, natural knowledge, disease medicine, body organs, music and dance ritual instruments, official titles, and various miscellaneous items, like a small encyclopedia, often used as a literacy textbook and general knowledge textbook, so the practicality is very high.

Because of this, once it appeared, it was warmly welcomed in a very short period of time, from the deep palace to the frontier, from nobles to craftsmen, all used it as a teaching material for enlightenment and learning, and the bookstore in Juyiwu was naturally no exception. When Zhuge Liang arrived outside the window yesterday, he knew that the textbook Li Yan used was probably in a hurry and nine chapters, and today he asked more casually.

It is not so much casual, it is better to say that Zhuge Liang observed Li Yan for an afternoon and knew that Li Yan was a qualified and strict teacher of compassion, but he also found some shortcomings in his teaching. Therefore, if the content is inappropriate, I am afraid that it will be half the effort, and Diao Yu and they will not learn anything, so they will ask.

The battle on the chessboard intensified, not only arousing the fighting spirit in the hearts of both sides, but also making Lu Jing, a bystander, surging in his heart. The intensity of the emotion made Li Yan's tone also excited, and even a little provocative, "You know this thing?" It seems that the Gezhuang brothers are really knowledgeable! ”

Lu Jing immediately felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and when he wanted to say something, Zhuge Liang spoke first, "No, no, no, this woman and child all know, how profound is it." At this time, a big leap fell, Li Yan was suddenly confused, and the white chess went into a desperate situation.

"So, the old man only teaches low-level fun?" Ninety percent of this chess move was less than one hundred and twenty moves, and Li Yan held back a sullen breath.

"It was."

"......" Lu Jing was taken aback for a moment, his throat seemed to be choked by something, but he could clearly hear Li Yan's breathing panting...... There was a terrible feeling in the air.

Zhuge Liang has always looked down on this common sense book, if it is used as a teaching material for enlightenment education, it is being used well. It's just that compared with the classics of Zhuzi, that point is not as good as it is in his opinion, and some of the anger in his heart comes from the ugliness of many teachers in teaching. If the teachers of the Han Dynasty are just like this, they will have to mislead many children, so he naturally disagrees with the education that emphasizes the surface but not the truth.

Another reason is that he can control the learning of all the sons, and he is not interested in relying on this kind of rote memorization, because it is too simple.

After decades of being a teacher, Li Yan has never heard such wild words, the battle is in full swing on the chessboard, and his emotions have driven him a lot, but he who has always been strict with self-restraint can no longer hold back at this time. Similarly, Zhuge Liang has always respected his predecessors, because of the drive of the chess game and the long-term disdain to the teaching of some tutors, he said such words at this time.

There is a common topic of Go, and it has been some time, so Li Yan has long regarded Gezhuang as a friend in his heart, and it is of course impossible to make trouble just because of this corner of his mouth. Moreover, Lu Jing on the side is an understanding person, and he can be regarded as Li Yan's confidant, and he knows that Li Yan is soft or hard. No matter what happens, if he touches the principle or touches the truth of the Confucian scriptures, no matter how much the other party grinds him, he will be stubborn, because this is like his life.

He knew that the "Confucianism" in Li Yan's heart could not be said to be the "Confucianism" of Confucius, nor could it be said to be the "Confucianism" of today's Confucianism, but the only remaining extravagant hope for the real world. Whether it is etiquette or benevolence, the reason why he insists on these is not strange because of Li Yan's own perception of reality, he needs this thing to give him the motivation to live, the motivation to live in the cruel reality.

In fact, Li Yan sometimes said something to Lu Jing that surprised Lu Jing, such as he said that the Spring and Autumn Period in which Confucius lived had no meaning at all, so what was the "righteousness" that Confucius insisted on? He always said that he was just a small person, and no matter how he used self-denial to interpret Confucianism and Taoism, no one would know. When it comes to those who always call the old Confucian students stupid and stubborn, Li Yan said that maybe they are right, it is quite uncomfortable to live like this, but it is the source of their not to feel abandoned by God.

Because at least there is faith to speak of...... It won't be an empty shell.

In order to prevent Li Yan and Ge Zhuang from tearing apart, Lu Jing thought about diverting the attention of both parties and asking Ge Zhuang to send medicine to Zhao Ning'er. But Ge Zhuang refused, and simply said that he didn't know the way, and if Li Lao led the way, he was looking forward to following......

This made Lu Jing helpless again, it seems that the dispute between Ge Zhuang and Shuping today is inevitable, "Alas, the snow finally stopped this morning, I wanted to finish playing chess and go out of the dock with Xiaozhuang, but I didn't expect the current situation to ......"

It was also at this time that two thoughts flashed through Lu Jing's mind, and he dared to disobey the master to explain that Ge Zhuang's family environment might be different from ordinary people's families, combined with the Ma family's arrow and Ge Zhuang's extraordinary edge on the chessboard, he felt that he could already conclude that Ge Zhuang's background was very large. The second thought is the way to deal with disputes: competition.

So after Ge Zhuang and Li Yan talked to each other a few more words, Lu Jing smiled and stood up, "Why don't you try it?" The test questions are given by me, and the people in the dock testify, whoever wins will be right! ”

"No, no, Elder Lu, I just think that the level of urgency is as simple as the content in the nine chapters, and I don't dare to say that Elder Li can't do it. So this competition can be compared, but if I win, as long as Li Lao agrees with my point of view, it doesn't mean that Li Lao is inferior to me. ”

"Hehe, Brother Ge, your tone is really not small, why don't you say that you lost?" Seeing that Ge Zhuang was not much more excited than when he first argued with himself, let alone as fierce as himself, Li Yan slowly calmed down, lest his emotional control was not as good as that of a kid, and at this time, Lu Jing proposed a fair competition, and his emotions could be said to have calmed down.

"If I lose, I will naturally apologize to you, Mr. Li, and I will no longer dare to have an opinion on you." Zhuge Liang replied with a smile, his face was not half angry at all, and it didn't look like he had just had a heated argument with someone.

"Okay, let's compare!" Li Yan said decisively that he had to win Gezhuang.

“…… Such a mind...... Shuping, I'm afraid you're going to be ugly today......" Lu Jing couldn't help but sigh in his heart, from the beginning of the dispute between Ge Zhuang and Li Yan, Lu Jing was thinking about how to mediate, and at the same time he was always observing Ge Zhuang. The former didn't think about it, but felt incredible because of Ge Zhuang's calm spirit, his face, tone and even his movements were still so calm, as if there was no fluctuation in his heart, and he was fighting with the angry Li Yan like this...... There is no trace of being moved by emotions at all, and if it is said that Ge Zhuang controls his emotions well, Lu Jing does not feel this way, but feels that Ge Zhuang has a bottomless mind that will be fighting and indisputable...... He can contain anger and become invisible.

The little fighting mood that Fang had just brought up for the fierce battle on the chessboard only lasted for a brief moment when Fang Cai had just spoken to Li Yan, and was replaced by a calm tone, a face, movements, and a slightly aggressive and confident language.

"Well, the time for the competition is set for this afternoon, when I will make the question, and the children will be notaries, okay?"

"Yes." Li Yan stood up, slightly bent his neck and glared at Ge Zhuang and replied.

"Hmm." Zhuge Liang just looked up at Li Yan and replied lightly, but didn't stand up.

"Then you should each go back and prepare, and you are not allowed to come to me during this period, and you are not allowed to go to the library, lest anyone cheat." Lu Jing was solemn, he had already thought about what to let the two compete, and he planned to come up with all the competition questions that Li Yan was good at.

"The old man will win by strength!" With that, Li Yan raised his sleeves and left.

Zhuge Liang got up and bowed behind the departing Li Yan, and then turned around and looked at Lu Jing, with some helplessness in his eyebrows...... I'm afraid I'm going to make Li Lao lose face...... How is it good? In fact, Zhuge Liang wanted to take this opportunity to test Lu Jing's reaction, because Lu Jing still remembered his secret for many days, even if he didn't feel much malice from now on.

"Don't underestimate Shuping, although he was only a Maocai when he was young, he has never fallen behind in his homework over the years."

"Understood, then I'll go back and rest first, I'm a little sleepy playing chess."

After bowing to Lu Jing again, Zhuge Liang turned around and left, leaving Lu Jing in place, "resting...... Shuping has decades of education...... What a weird guy. After standing like this for a long time, Lu Jing went to work on the afternoon competition.
