Liang Shiyuan's face stiffened, frowned, and was silent for a while, and his eyes like torches were fixed for a long time. "Alas!" Di Chang sighed and sighed with emotion: "Although the nine generations of champions are sonic and famous, they are rich and noble; But the sea is up and down, and the career is dangerous. The lord has always been loyal and upright, he is the prime minister, and his position is high and powerful, which can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand people, and it is difficult to gain a foothold in the court, and he still ends up in a desperate way and is exiled thousands of miles away. ”

Speaking of this, Liang Shiyuan sighed again: "Fame and fortune, glory and wealth are all things outside the body, and they are all fleeting. ”

"There is a way, once you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, and the companion is like a tiger! Above the officialdom, they deceive each other and kill each other, which is prohibitive. I have no intention of expecting my descendants to be the champions of nine generations, but only to be a common man, working hard in the vicissitudes of life, and having no quarrel with the world. Liang Shiyuan's expression was solemn, citing the past and the present, going through the ups and downs of the sea and the ups and downs, and his career was dangerous.

Zhang Cambodia was very emotional after hearing this, and said with admiration: "In the past, the virtuous brother was a genius in the imperial court, who was in the sea of eunuchs, and retreated bravely in the rapids, which really made the old man ashamed, indulged in fame and fortune, and ended up in a desperate way and exiled thousands of miles away......

Zhang Cambodia felt that he was in a state of decline, and he was overwhelmed with emotion, picked up the wine jug, poured himself three glasses of wine, and said to Liang Shiyuan, "Brother Xian, the old man made a gaffe after drinking that day, so that Brother Xian resigned and did not do it, today he borrowed the wine of Brother Xian, punished himself with three glasses, and looked at Brother Xian a lot!" When he finished speaking, he drank three full glasses of wine.

In fact, Liang Shiyuan had long forgotten that Zhang Khan had ridiculed him as an "exceptional scholar" after drinking. The reason why he resigned and did not do it has a lot to do with the temperament of the people of New Wales.

The temperament of Xinzhou people is hard-working, stubborn, shrewd, rebellious, honest, contented and happy, simple folk customs, and a good view of life. As for the theory of feng shui, it comes out of people, and the charlatans will make money from it. For example, Liang Shiyuan, who went to the examination several times and did not take the Jinshi examination, but was a practical scholar who was eloquent and practical to the Ministry of Rites, not because of where the bones of his ancestors were buried, but mainly because Liang Shiyuan himself had the talent of the heavens and latitudes, and had a golden opportunity: in the court, he was lucky to meet the emperor like Bole, and he was also specially given "the same Jinshi background", and the official was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Seeing this, Liang Shiyuan also got up and picked up the wine jug, poured himself three glasses, and replied to Zhang Cambodia: "Lord Zhang, don't worry about it, the little brother has long forgotten about it!" It's rare for adults to afford it, and the younger brother will salute the adults three more times, and I hope to take more care of them in the future. After speaking, he drank three full glasses of wine.

Zhang Cambodia took advantage of the wine and patted his chest boldly: "You and my brother, you're welcome, your business is my business, the virtuous brother has something, help my brother!" ”

Liang Shiyuan was very moved when he heard Zhang Cambodia's righteous and touching words. Zhang Cambodia did not treat him as a staff member, but regarded him as a brother, which moved him so much that his heart was hot, and he even had the idea of helping this difficult brother.

So, Liang Shiyuan changed his words and asked Zhang Khan Zhi: "After the adults arrived, have you ever heard of the local twisting master?" ”

Zhang Cambodia shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." Is there such a person who twists the master? The foolish brother would like to hear how this master twists the trick. ”

Zhang Cambodia shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, I want to hear it in detail." Then, with great interest, "The old man would like to hear how this master twists the method." ”

Liang Shiyuan said: "Okay! Speaking of this twisted master, it will take some talk, so it is better to go to my study and drink a cup of hot tea to sober up. ”

Zhang Cambodia's hands clapped: "This is exactly what I want." ”

Liang Shiyuan immediately instructed the scholar to go to the study to prepare tea.

Zhang Cambodia followed Liang Shiyuan to the front of the study, and then entered with Liang Shiyuan, and when he went to the middle door, he saw a big book on the door:

Indifferent to Mingzhi

Tranquil and distant

In the study, that is, the place where Liang Shiyuan reads and lies high. Sure enough, the scenery was abnormal. Zhang Cambodia's impromptu poems, the residence of Shan Yinshiyuan:

Twenty miles west of Xinzhou City,

Liantang Gaogang pillow flowing water.

Takaoka buckling and pressing cloud root,

Flowing water gurgling and flying chalcedony.

If you are trapped on the dragon stone,

It is shaped like a single phoenix pine in the shade.

Chaimen is half-closed thatched,

There are high-ranking people who are bedridden.

Xiuzhu Jiaojia Lie Cuiping,

At four o'clock, the fence falls wildflowers.

The bedside is piled up with yellow rolls,

There is no white ding on the seat.

When you knock on the ape, you offer fruit,

The old crane who guards the door listens to the scriptures at night.

The famous piano in the bag is hidden in the ancient brocade,

The sword between the walls hangs seven stars.

Mr. Luzhong is elegant,

Idle to teach the apprentices in person.

Waiting for the spring thunder to return to the dream,

A long howl is known to the world.

Zhang Cambodia's groan, Liang Shiyuan was full of praise.

Entering the room, the two sat at the table, and the scholar offered hot tea and fruit.

After the two of them were polite and humble, Zhang Cambodia looked at Liang Shiyuan and urged: "Brother Xian, please speak." ”

"Good. In NSW, there is a person named Ma Biter who is called 'Master', and the word 'twist' is preceded by the word 'twist'. After Liang Shiyuan made an opening remarks, he then explained the "twist trick": "twist trick" is commonly known as "shrinking bones", "idea", "bridge king", the more intelligent and clever people think of the more ways, tricky, strange, often unexpected. It can be seen that its status is prominent, and its skill and wisdom are extraordinary.

Ma Yaner's real name is Liang Tianpei, a native of Yixiangfang, Xinzhou, and the second among his brothers. Because he grew up in the countryside, he has developed a naughty and mischievous character since he was a child, good at tricks, full of scheming, and strong in competition. But he also sympathized with the weak, hated the bullies, avenged the grievances of the local people, relieved the troubles of life, and selflessly dedicated his talents, so that he was loved and praised by the people. Because of the number of wonderful ideas in Xinzhou and even Lingnan, he is naturally known as the "master of twisting". After Liang Shiyuan introduced and commented on the "Twisted Master" Ma Biter, he told Zhang Cambodia the story of the "Twisted Master" Ma Biter.

Story 1: Shijileliu Village

Once, Ma Yaner took a boat to Guangzhou, and the boat passed near the South China Sea, and heard that Ganzhu Village had built a feng shui tower at the entrance of the village. On the opposite side, several people died one after another, so Leliu Village sued Ganzhu Village and insisted on demolishing the feng shui tower. However, Ganzhu Village has a lot of wealth, and Leliu Village has been unable to win repeatedly, so it posted a notice and recruited capable people with a lot of money.

After Ma Yaner learned about this, he got on the boat and went to Leliu Village, where he disguised himself as a passing guest and went into a house to find water to drink, only to see that the family was also talking about the lawsuit with a sad face.

Ma Yaner stepped forward and said, "This is just a small lawsuit, there is nothing difficult to fight." ”

Seeing that Ma Biter was easy to say, the family called several elders in the village and asked him to write a pleadings to fight this lawsuit. Seeing that the other party valued him so much, Ma Biter agreed and made a plan.

After Ma Yaner accepted this lawsuit, he first asked the people of the village to prepare some coffins in advance and put them at the doors of each house, put some dead fish and rotten meat in them, and put one or two coffins of real dead people at each intersection, burn incense and candles, and call the women and children in the village to dress up like the family members of their deceased relatives and come together to cry and mourn. Then they wrote a pleading, telling them to take it to the prefect to file a complaint.

The prefect took the pleadings and looked at them, only to see that it read: "I didn't see Ganzhu out of Kejia, but I saw Leliu mourning all the people." The prefect couldn't help but be shocked when he saw that so many people had died in the territory under his jurisdiction. Therefore, an official was sent to inspect it. As soon as the official arrived in Leliu Village, he saw so many coffins parked in the village of Lukou, and the smell was stinking, thinking that it was really like what was written, so many people had died, so he hurried back to report what he saw, and the prefect immediately ordered the demolition of this feng shui tower immediately. In this way, Ma Biting Er helped Leliu Village win the lawsuit.

After Ma Yaner won the lawsuit for Leliu Village, Leliu Village wanted to reward him heavily. But Ma Yaner thought that there was a sloped village road in his hometown, and it would be muddy and slippery as soon as it rained, and it was very inconvenient for the villagers to travel, so he proposed that he should not be rewarded, and if he had to thank him, he would repair the sloped village road for his village. Therefore, Leliu Village invited skilled craftsmen to seriously build a hundred stone slabs to repair this sloped village road, and the people in the village called it a hundred step ladder, which did a good deed for the benefit of future generations and immeasurable merits.
