Chapter Fifty-Four: The Confucianism Who Despises the "Confucian" Sect
The competition between Hu Luguang and Shi Electric continues. Unlike Corning, who had already guessed the result, the others were still watching with relish.
Due to Hu Luguang's superiority in strength, he can often cause some trouble for Shi Dian. So it seems that the whole situation seems to be in a stalemate, but everyone doesn't know that Shi Deng has already grasped the initiative in this round.
A lunge, a stab, very simple action, but let Hu Luguang parry in a hurry. Helplessly, the timing chosen by the other party was too good, and it was just when he switched the support legs.
Hu Luguang hurriedly blocked. Everyone saw him raise his spear and block the spear that had been stabbed by the stone lightning on the other side of his body. Anyone who knows a little about the art of striking knows that it did this to prevent Shi Dian from sweeping sideways and hitting his body.
However, it seems that Shidian is not prepared to do this at all.
I saw him start quickly, and the hands that were still holding the spear just now also left the spear, only the right hand moved along the spear, and then the whole person ran, and instantly flashed to the side and back of Hu Luguang.
At this time, the right hand, which was still behind the spear, had moved to a position very close to the tip of the spear.
Shi Dian allowed his inertia to move two steps forward, and there was still time anyway. Hu Luguang behind him was still adjusting his center of gravity. When he switched the support leg just now, he received a strong interference, so his action lasted much longer than usual.
At this time, the opportunity of stone electricity came. He tilted his head slightly, glanced at the general position of Hu Luguang, and then slammed his spear back.
Hu Luguang just stood firm, but he didn't expect to be poked on the chest, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back, and when he was about to fight back, he saw that Shi Dian, who was far more flexible than himself, had turned the head of the gun upside down, and the tip of the gun was already aimed at his neck.
"I lost." Hu Luguang threw away the weapon in his hand. He wanted to complain a few words, after all, the guy in his hand is really not good. However, thinking that the first round of competition was what he was best at, this second round should naturally give the opponent a chance to show, so he swallowed back the complaint that came to his mouth.
At this time, everyone was cheering for their wonderful competition, but Corning looked worried.
Hu Luguang thought that he was worried that he would not be able to win, so he walked over and said, "Childe, don't worry, I still have the advantage in these two rounds." I've resisted for so long with weapons I'm not familiar with, it's better than abstaining. ”
Kangning suddenly heard him speak, and almost didn't react, and when he heard what he wanted to say, he couldn't help but cry and laugh.
"I'm not thinking about it."
"Childe Hugh wants to comfort me." Hu Luguang didn't believe Kang Ning's words, "I know that Gongzi takes this matter very seriously. I will definitely do my best. According to the competition routine of the Chai Governor's Mansion, the next game should be a fair project for us, maybe it will be a real combat competition. When the time comes, I'll be able to win him. ”
"I'm not really thinking about it." Kangning cried and laughed even more, "I know that you are capable, and you will definitely win." Yes and never worried. It's just that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and I am a little uneasy. ”
Hu Luguang walked away suspiciously and began to prepare for the third competition.
As Tong Hu Luguang guessed, Chai Yinbin's thinking was to adopt a relatively fair approach for both of them in the third game. The two sides directly competed in martial arts, using equipment, horses, and even Chai Yinbin said the words of life and death.
However, the two sides are not too heavy. At least Hu Luguang didn't have much interest in the old man's life. Unless Corning asks him to take off the other man's head.
Shi Dian quickly picked out the horses and weapons, but Hu Luguang picked and chose for a long time. It doesn't matter if there are few good guys, even the horses are so bad.
In the end, he still pulled the general among the short man, and found a horse that was not very old, hoping that this guy would be more energetic.
But when he and his chosen horse appeared in front of everyone, Corning couldn't help but laugh.
"Why do I feel like you're riding on a big dog?"
When Hu Luguang heard this, he also began to complain: "It's still a dog that can't bite." ”
Everyone laughed when they heard this, of course horses can't, and can't bite.
Looking at Shidian again, in fact, the horses are about the same size, but Shidian's body is thinner, unlike Hu Luguang, who is five big and three thick, which sets off the horses like a dog.
So he still looks good on a horse, but he can't be eaten as a meal, and the victory or defeat of the two still has to be seen with real effort.
Hu Luguang roared, and the horse rushed towards Shi Dian. Shi Dian's expression on his face was still calm, but his hand was not half a minute slower, and he also shook the reins and rushed out.
The horses' hooves galloped and the sky was full of dust. Three or five rangers riding tall horses rushed into a manor outside Yuncheng at a speed far faster than that of Shi Diandian Luguang.
"Where is Brother Xu?" The ranger on the horse turned over and dismounted, and asked impatiently before he had time to clean up the dust on his body.
"Meet a distinguished guest in the study." A servant replied.
The ranger's expression froze, and it was naturally inconvenient for him to say what he wanted to report in front of the distinguished guests, but it was better to tell Brother Xu as soon as possible so that he could carry out the next plan.
After thinking about it, he said to the little guy, "Change your clothes for me." ”
The little guy hesitantly glanced at the steward behind him, and when he saw the steward's nod of approval, he took off his shirt and changed it to the ranger.
The ranger wore a funny complexion, and said to the brothers behind him, asking them to wait here for a while, and then turned around and asked the little servant, "Where is the tea?" ”
"Study Southeast ......"
Before the little guy could finish speaking, the ranger hurried away.
In the study, Xu Hongru was chatting with a middle-aged wealthy businessman.
"Dr. Meng's thousands of acres of fertile land must be unmatched in Zou County, how can I, a small place in Bian Jiatun, not measure my own strength, and compare it with Yasheng."
Dr. Meng is talking about Meng Chengguang, the hereditary Doctor of the Five Classics, who and his clan occupy a large area of fertile land around Zou County, and in order to maintain the growing clan population, they have never stopped encroaching on other people's fields.
And the wealthy businessman in front of him is responsible for another major source of wealth for the Meng family, smuggling seafood.
Maybe in the past history, they didn't involve this part, or even if they did, they didn't fall into it as deeply as they are now, but since the appearance of the Black Clothes Society, under the temptation of various interests, they quickly fell into it.
To some extent, he Xu Hongru and Yasheng's family are in a competitive relationship, because they use the same source of goods. But in the surrounding area, the business of the Yasheng family was taken care of by the government, so the benefits were far better than his.
This made Xu Hongru unhappy for a long time, but fortunately, now that she has developed, even Yasheng's family has to see him squarely.
That's why there is this rich businessman, who is actually the housekeeper of the Meng family who is in charge of business, and came to discuss the so-called "cooperation matters" with him. In fact, that is, to apportion the sphere of influence, of course, the Meng family's requirements are naturally very harsh.
However, the place where he Xu Hongru was located was the territory of another Confucian landowner, the Confucian family. In Juye and Yuncheng, whether in terms of floor area or identity background, the descendants of the second shopkeeper Meng Ke did not dare to be too presumptuous.
Therefore, Xu Hongru also had the courage to bargain with the other party.
"Since Xu Yuanwai knows the gap with my Yasheng Mansion, there are some things that I don't need to say."
The wealthy merchant said in a slightly contemptuous tone as he drank his tea pleasantly.
Xu Hongru didn't give him face at all, and sneered in front of him: "It's better for Steward Meng to make it clear." I heard that a few days ago, there was a delivery coward in your mansion, and he encountered a robber on the road north of Yizhou, and he was so frightened that he called the bandit grandpa on the spot, which was a loss of face in Yashengfu. The cowards also moved out of the signboard of Yashengfu, thinking that the bandits would let them go. But those bandits don't care about anything, their beloved wives are the ones who cause them to fall into the grass, even those who care all day long. ”
The incident Xu Hongru said was the robbery that Kang Ning encountered when he first came to the end of the Ming Dynasty. Hu San Mazi made the head of the subordinate in the Yasheng Mansion in a different place with one sword.
Steward Meng had already widened his eyes at this time. I can't imagine that this little rich man would dare to sneer at himself. Looking at him comfortably holding a teacup and sipping tea, with a disdainful look in his eyes, he was afraid that he would be half dead.
But years of business experience still allowed him to stabilize his emotions.
It made his next words sound just a little more gunpowder than usual.
Listening to the tone of Xu Yuanwai's words, the fourth is quite dissatisfied with the readers. However, isn't there the word 'Hongru' in Xu Yuanwai's name? If you don't also want to become a reader, why use such a name? ”
Xu Hongru sneered: "It is precisely because I have read the Four Books and Five Classics that I know how pedantic and hypocritical today's readers are, and I know that these four books and five classics are all farts!" ”
"You!" Steward Meng stood up angrily, this Xu Hongru wanted to fundamentally deny the existence of their Confucius and Mencius families, which of course he couldn't accept, "You, you are so bold!" ”
Xu Hongru continued to sneer: "Heaven and earth have a great avenue, and the so-called Confucianism is just a kind of learning that expounds the avenue. But the believers of Confucius and Mencius are arrogant, and they even take the words of Confucius and Mencius as the meaning of the avenue, and they don't care about it. Such a scholar, if Confucius is resurrected, I am afraid that he will have to be scolded for three days and three nights! ”
Steward Meng finally couldn't help it. He jumped to his feet and shouted: "Hmph, I see that you are a poor scholar who failed the imperial examination, so you have a complaint about the study of the ancestors. However, this is something you are not capable of, but it does not mean that there is a problem with the knowledge of the Holy Religion. ”
Xu Hongru continued to laugh: "You said that you were arrogant, and you still ran out to show off." ”
"You ......"
"Where the Heavenly Dao is, it is made up of countless truths. Endless and endless, in fact, we can wait for the completion of what we can explore. Only those who are arrogant and arrogant dare to be shameless and claim to be holy in front of the vast sea of heaven! ”
"You! You! Steward Meng was so angry that the language center was short-circuited, and he said the word "you" three or five times before he finally held back a sentence, "You are an evil crooked way, I will go to the government to report you." ”
"There you go." Xu Hongru was unaware of the danger, "Your Meng family has always adhered to the principle that family ugliness should not be publicized. You don't want to think about how I know about him being robbed and killed north of Yizhou. ”
After Xu Hongru said this, he immediately showed a majestic face.
The Meng housekeeper's perennial business brain is quite bright, and he immediately heard Xu Hongru's hidden meaning, and then he was so frightened that he took a few steps back, sat on the ground with his buttocks, pointed at Xu Hongru in horror, and said inarticulately: "You, it's your ......"
"You're smart. My men did it. Xu Hongru's eyes radiated a murderous light, but his tone became more tidy, "Next, it's time for us to talk about how to delineate the scope of our business." Hehe. ”
