Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Gorgeous Coat

The old man was picked up by a strong man, and Zhao Chen led the group directly into the hall. = There is a wall of fire in the hall, it is hot, Zhao Chen entered the hall and took two Taishi chairs and put them together, and spread a few thick blankets inside, and then signaled the strong man to put the old man inside.

When Zhao Chen did this, the old man looked at Zhao Chen with a very flat gaze, until he sat comfortably inside, the old man looked at Zhao Chen, and said with a smile: "The old man has heard Chao'er say that Xiaoyou has a child-like heart, and when I saw it today, it was really the same!" ”

"Don't be close, old man! One thing is one thing! Zhao Chen unceremoniously interrupted the old man's words, and said straight to the point: "Since you are the great elder of the hidden door, you should understand that the kid has nothing to do with your hidden door, right?" ”

"This old man naturally understands!" The old man nodded very honestly, indicating that he agreed with Zhao Chen's words very much.

"That's it!" Zhao Chen pulled a chair, sat opposite the old man very unimpressively, looked at the old man and said, "Then in this case, why are you so excited to find the kid?" ”

"It's not a big deal!" When the old man heard this, he looked at Zhao Chen very seriously and said: "The old man just heard from Chao'er, recently a young man Lang Jun came to Chang'an, and he is comparable to a grandmaster in Gewu arithmetic, and the old man is curious, so he specially came to take a look!" ”

"And then?" The corners of Zhao Chen's mouth twitched slightly, he looked at the old man, and asked expressionlessly, "Just to see, nothing else?" ”

"Well, just looking!" The old man seemed very honest, and after hearing this, he nodded and said: "Chao'er is the smartest child in my disciple, if Chao'er feels ashamed, the old man is naturally a little curious!" ”

"Wait!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he suddenly waved his hand at the old man, and asked a little confused: "How do you feel about this, do you seem to be very proficient in the arithmetic of things?" ”

Lao Qin told him last time that this hidden door was established by the descendants of the eight surnames of ancient times, and every time there is a person walking in the world in troubled times, setting things right, it is very mysterious, but now Zhao Chen listens to this old man, but he attaches great importance to the arithmetic.

"Gewu is broad and profound, this proficient two words really can't afford it!" As soon as the old man mentioned Gewu, the expression on his face suddenly became solemn, he sighed slightly, looked at Zhao Chen and said: "Even if you are like Xiaoyou, you are comparable to a grandmaster in Gewu arithmetic, and you can't afford to be proficient in these two words!" ”

Zhao Chen's eyes suddenly became hot, he had said this to Li Er, he didn't expect someone to tell him today, at this moment Zhao Chen suddenly had a feeling of confidant.

In today's Tang Dynasty, everyone actually doesn't value Gewu together, that is, Lao Qin, who is closest to him, doesn't really value Gewu much in his bones, and the reason is naturally that Gewu is a side door, where it can be compared to orthodox Confucianism!

"Old man, what the hell are you doing with that hidden door?" Zhao Chen looked at the old man with fiery eyes, and asked curiously: "The kid once heard an elder talk about the hidden door, saying that your hidden door is passed down from the ancient eight surnames, and you have the responsibility to set things right!" ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhao Chen's words came out, the old man didn't speak, but the strong man on the side let out a sneer, obviously thinking that Zhao Chen's words were a bit idiotic.

Zhao Chen glared at the strong man fiercely, and just wanted to ridicule him, but when he heard the old man's words, he sounded slowly: "People in the world always love people and clouds, and one thing that was originally imaginary has become true after being said for a long time!" ”

Wise sayings! Isn't this the most famous saying of later generations - a lie is told a thousand times, and finally it becomes the truth!

"So, the matter of the hidden door from the ancient eight surnames is a lie?" Zhao Chen blinked, looked at the old man and asked.

The old man smiled dumbly, looked at Zhao Chen and said, "No, if you really want to find your roots, you really have to inherit the bloodline of the eight ancient surnames!" ”

Seeing Zhao Chen's surprised gaze in an instant, the old man hurriedly explained: "It's just a surname!" If you really want to talk about it, there are many surnames that have been passed down for thousands of years in this world, it is nothing more than whose ancestor is more famous! ”

Oh, that's what a lineage!

Zhao Chen listened to the old man's explanation, and suddenly showed a relieved expression, if he said so, it was really like what the old man said, there are really many people in this world who have inherited thousands of years, so wouldn't everyone be able to brag.

"What the hell does the Hidden Gate do?" Zhao Chen figured out the so-called inheritance of the hidden door for thousands of years, suddenly looked at the old man again, and asked puzzledly: "How can I listen to what you old man said, it is completely different from what the kid has heard?" ”

"Huh!" When the old man heard this, he opened his toothless mouth, laughed, and looked at Zhao Chen very interestingly: "The rumors that Xiaoyou heard are just deliberately released by my hidden door, which can be regarded as a protective means of the hidden door!" ”

Seeing Zhao Chen looking at him puzzled, the old man paused slightly, and said with a smile: "In fact, the so-called hidden door is just a group of scholars who are powerless!" ”

"Scholar?" When Zhao Chen heard this, he suddenly frowned, thinking of what the old man said before, and suddenly looked at the old man with fiery eyes, and suddenly said with some excitement: "Don't tell me, old man, you are all people who study physical arithmetic!" ”

"Naturally, it's not all about studying things and arithmetic!" The old man looked at Zhao Chen with a smile, and said seriously: "There are also people who study the subset of the scriptures and history, Qimen Dunjia Doctor Bu Xingxiang!" ”

The old man was still talking there, but Zhao Chen was already dumbfounded when he heard it, what kind of hidden door is this! It is clearly the Jixia School Palace of the year, which gathered hundreds of schools, and it is really a hundred schools of thought!

It's just that when I think about it, a doubt flashes in my mind, the hundreds of schools of thought have experienced the Qin Emperor's book burning and Confucianism, coupled with the chaos of the five Hu and the southward migration of clothes, many things have actually been broken.

Could it be that these inheritances have been inherited from the Hidden Gate?

Thinking of this, Zhao Chen suddenly looked at the old man with some excitement, and asked with a hopeful gaze: "Old man, can you make a Zhuge repeater from the hidden door?" ”

"Hmm!" When the old man heard this, he was slightly stunned, hesitated slightly, and finally nodded under Zhao Chen's expectant gaze, and said: "It was invented by Mr. Zhuge Zhuge at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the prime minister of Shu State, is it right?" ”

"That's right!" When Zhao Chen saw the old man nodding, he immediately rubbed his hands excitedly, and then couldn't wait to look at the old man and asked, "What about the wooden ox and flowing horse?" And what about steelmaking? Do you have a hidden door? ”

"Yes!" When the old man heard Zhao Chen ask about the things that had long disappeared in Datang, he suddenly laughed, nodded at Zhao Chen, and said, "These things that Xiaoyou said have been preserved in the hidden door!" ”

Zhao Chen was completely shocked at this moment, these things are priceless treasures, in the wars again and again, they have long disappeared in the rolling river of history, and they can't imagine that they are all preserved by the hidden door today.

At this moment, Zhao Chen even had a desire to see these things!

"Xiaoyou has asked so much, can you also let Lao Yu ask a few questions?" The old man looked at Zhao Chen's colorful appearance, smiled slightly, looked directly at Zhao Chen and asked.

"Yes, you keep asking!" Zhao Chen immediately sat upright, put on a look of knowing everything, and said, "As long as the kid knows, he will definitely tell you!" ”

"Dare to ask who Xiaoyou is learning from?" The old man was really a polite person, and as soon as he heard Zhao Chen agree, he immediately threw out a question that made Zhao Chen embarrassed.

“… Peach Blossom Fairy! Zhao Chen hesitated, looked at the old man and said.

When the old man heard this, he smiled noncommittally, and then looked at Zhao Chen and continued to ask: "Then the paradise that Xiaoyou said must also exist?" ”

"Of course!" When Zhao Chen heard this, his heart suddenly 'chuckled', his eyes looked directly at the old man, and he said without changing his face: "That's where the kid grew up since he was a child, how can it not exist!" ”

When the words fell, seeing that the old man and the strong man on the side both showed suspicious looks, Zhao Chen suddenly pretended to be angry and said, "Old man, don't you believe it?" ”

"The old decay has already lived a nail in the past!" When the old man heard this, he was not in a hurry to answer Zhao Chen's words, but said thoughtfully: "It can be regarded as well-informed, but with Xiaoyou's current attainments in arithmetic and Gewu, it is hard to imagine what kind of character Ling Shi should be!" ”

When the old man said this, his cloudy eyes suddenly looked at Zhao Chen, and said with emotion: "However, such a character, the old man has never heard of it, and he seems to be a character who appeared out of thin air!" ”

"Old man, this world is very big!" When Zhao Chen heard the old man's words, especially the last sentence, he couldn't help but 'chuckle' in his heart, but on the surface, he still looked light-hearted, and said with an exaggerated smile: "What you said is well-informed, I'm afraid it's only limited to the Central Plains!" But in addition to the Central Plains, there are also very large and vast places in this world, and I don't know how vast it is compared to the Central Plains! ”

Seeing the old man's deaf look, Zhao Chen simply looked at the old man and played: "Don't say anything else, the kid will ask you the old man, you have lived for a long time, have you been to Tubo?" Have you ever been to Tianzhu? ”

The old man shook his head honestly!

"That's it!" Seeing this, Zhao Chen said proudly: "This world is very big, and our Datang is just a part of it, and the farther place is wider than Datang, and the customs there are also very different from Datang!" ”

Zhao Chen looked extremely proud, these hidden people, taking off the gorgeous coat outside, are actually just a group of old scholars buried in the pile of books, not as evil as Lao Qin said!

And the so-called walking in the world, the eight surnames of the ancients, are nothing more than smoke bombs released by the hidden door, which are passed around by the world, and finally become like this, even Li Er is very taboo!

When he thought of this, Zhao Chen suddenly had a bold idea in his heart, what if he could let the hidden door go out of the mountain? What will happen? 211
