The fact that Zheng Yanqing worshiped Li Ji as a teacher did not spread.

According to Zheng Shi'an's idea, how could he get an apprenticeship ceremony, but Li Ji refused. It was just a simple ceremony, and it was only in the schoolhouse, and the participants were only Zheng Shi'an and Dou Fengjie. Worship heaven and earth, worship sages, serve a glass of wine, kowtow a few times, and hastily end the ceremony.

Explain in Li Ji's original words: They are all unknown people, and if they do something big, it will only increase the joke.

Zheng Shi'an thought so, but Yan Qing thought there was something strange in it. After thinking about it, I felt that the words that Li Ji said before he apprenticed were not simple temptations. Could it be that there is another reason why Li Ji is reluctant to do it?

However, since he has already apprenticed, Zheng Yanqing put this mind over again and quietly studied with Li Ji.

Li Ji did not open up because Zheng Yanqing became his disciple. On the contrary, he was more demanding in his teachings. And in addition to interpreting the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Li Ji began to impart other knowledge to Yanqing. It is no longer simply sticking to the five cangs and the thousand-character text. The Four Books and the Five Classics, Li Ji thinks that it is too early to teach them now.

But Yan Qing was clearly past the level of learning, so he began to teach some other knowledge.

For example, filial piety, music, and some simple rituals.

Among them, Yan Qing was most interested in the 'shooting salute' taught by Li Ji in private.

The shooter, the advance and retreat of the circumference must be saluted. The salute embodies the most important part of traditional Chinese civilization: morality and self-righteousness, and harmony between etiquette and music. The so-called heart is upright, the body is straight, and the bow and arrow are solid, and then you can say it. The ancients judged a person's virtue by this.

Li Ji attached great importance to the archery salute, and also paid a lot of money to buy a good bow for Yanqing.

When he handed the bow to Zheng Yanqing, his expression was solemn, "Yanqing, the shooter, the way of man is also." Shoot to seek righteousness for yourself, and you will be righteous and then attack. Those who do not win, do not complain about themselves, but seek for themselves1. Do you understand the meaning of this sentence? ”

"Students don't understand."

Lee Ki said: "To learn to shoot, you must first look at yourself, and then seek to shoot. If you can't shoot accurately, don't use other excuses to look at your own problems first. Zeng Tzu said: I say three provinces and my body. Learning to shoot is like doing knowledge, you need to examine yourself from time to time.

Confucius said: If a gentleman has nothing to fight, he will also shoot. Let it go up, go down and drink, and its contention is also a gentleman.

Yanqing, for the sake of the teacher, I hope you will keep this in mind, and say that self-reflection can make progress. Don't be complacent because you have gained. ”

Zheng Yanqing, bow down to be taught.

Said, just like that, day by day.

In the blink of an eye, the school was suspended.

Li Ji also gave Zheng Yanqing two days off and asked him not to come to the school to listen to the lectures. In his opinion, Yanqing is still a child, staying in the school hall all day and listening to lectures without proper relaxation, but there is no benefit. The ancients talked about relaxation, and the same is true for education.

Zheng Yanqing was also happy to rest for two days, and spent a whole day, after completing the plot of burning the Changshe at home, he and Zheng Shi'an entered Luoyang City and went to Tianjin Bridge to visit the old army of the year.

Tianjin Bridge Market, about 100 meters long.

It is mainly engaged in ironware, and there are dozens of shops.

In the past, there were frequent wars, and there were many people who built weapons. Now, after the reign of the emperor, there are fewer and fewer people who think about peace and build weapons. The weapons distributed by the imperial court have their own special channels. The iron shops in the neighborhood can only make a living by building and repairing agricultural tools. If there are only one or two, the business will be prosperous. But dozens of shops, with comparable craftsmanship, made this business a little depressed. Zheng Shi'an took Zheng Yanqing and greeted people all the way.

At the end of the market, he stopped.

On the door of an iron shop, there is a banner with a big word 'Xiong' written on it.

Zheng Yanqing knows that most people in these years like to use their own surnames as the name of their stores. The guise says 'Xiong', isn't it the owner of this iron shop, surnamed 'Xiong'? It's a very unusual surname.

"Sledgehammer!" Zheng Shi'an shouted outside the iron shop, "The sledgehammer is not there? ”

"Who!"

There was a loud thunderous sound in the iron shop, which shook people's ears and buzzed at the roots. The curtain was lifted, and a strong man came out of the back room, about thirty or forty years old, born with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a huge body. The complexion was black and purple, apparently caused by a long period of smoking by the fire. With a beard like a steel needle and a leopard's head and eyes, it is intimidating.

Zheng Yanqing exhaled and said softly: "Grandpa, what a strong man." ”

Zheng Shi'an smiled, walked into the iron shop, and said to the giant man: "Xiongwazi, you are taller than your father in a blink of an eye." ”

When the giant man saw Zheng Shi'an, he looked a little strange at first, but then smiled.

"Uncle Zheng, you are Uncle Zheng...... I remember you, you are Uncle Zheng. ”

As he spoke, he ran towards Zheng Shi'an, carrying a big hammer in his hand, which made people look frightened.

"Stop, stop!"

Zheng Shi'an was obviously a little scared, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop it, "You guy looks like this, quickly put down the hammer." Hairy, my old bones can't stand your affection...... Where's your father, he's not there? ”

The giant man laughed and stopped.

"My father, where are you...... I'm drinking in the back. ”

"Take me in." Zheng Shi'an walked over with a smile, raised his hand and slapped the giant man's chest, "Good guy, this hard body is even more powerful than your father back then." Is the old guy okay? Now you can still eat with one meal and drink one urn. ”

"Hehe, my dad is good."

The giant man led the way in front, and Zheng Shi'an whispered to Yan Qing: "The male sledgehammer was the tiger attendant under the command of the Governor of Dadu back then.

Back then, most of the governors raised troops, and the family of eight went into battle together. When he returned to Luoyang, he was the only one left. This guy has a good relationship with me, but his surname is a little straightforward and his temper is very short-tempered. Before the old army stopped the governor, no one dared to talk to him, for fear that he would be angry and do something drastic. But he is a good man, and his brothers' children were all raised by him...... Xiongwazi's name is Xiongwei, and he is actually his nephew. The last time I saw him, he was still a big kid, but I didn't expect it to be so big in the blink of an eye. ”

"Grandpa, the surname Xiong is so weird."

"Yes, Xiongda Hammer is not from Luoyang, his ancestral home is Gong County. When he was a child, he fled with his father and went to Luoyang. ”

Zheng Yanqing nodded, followed Zheng Shi'an, and walked into the backyard.

In the backyard, there are six or seven juniors clanging iron, some are plowing, some are shoveling.

In the lobby facing the back entrance of the store, an old man with gray hair was sitting in front of the desk drinking.

At first glance, the old man seems to be much older than Zheng Sai On.

The face is full of ravines left by the years, and the face is red and purple. It was a bit hot as the fire in the iron stove in the backyard was blazing. The old man was wearing his upper body, and he could see the terrible wounds on his body from a distance. Zheng Yanqing couldn't help but gasp.

"Sledgehammer!"

Zheng Shi'an roared, the old man who was drinking shook his hand, looked up, and stood up with a look of surprise.

"Zheng big nose?"

Zheng Shi'an was stepping forward, and was roared by the male sledgehammer, and his feet staggered.

He has a relatively big nose, and Zheng Da's nose is still in the early years, he was in the army with Zheng Dashi, and the nickname given to him by the tiger attendants. Decades have passed in a blink of an eye, and Zheng Shi'an is about to forget this nickname. But I didn't expect to be told by the male sledgehammer.

You know, there is still a celebration around him!

"Sledgehammer, don't talk nonsense, you old thing, you're still alive?"

"Hahahaha, you're not dead, and I won't."

The two old men looked at each other in the lobby, and after looking at each other for a moment, they suddenly stepped forward and hugged each other. The size of the male sledgehammer is not as tall as the majestic one, and it is still very amazing compared to ordinary people. Yan Qing felt that if this guy was in the next life, with his head and physique, he would be even more amazing than the big shark in the NBA.

In the past, colleagues on the battlefield were separated for many years and reunited.

Zheng Shi'an finally stabilized his mind and beckoned Zheng Yanqing to come over, "Yanqing, I've come to see your Uncle Xiong." ”

"Yan Qing has seen Grandpa Xiong!"

The male sledgehammer was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "Big nose, this is your grandson?" ”

"Brought ...... Hehe, it's closer than the biological one. ”

The male sledgehammer suddenly realized, stretched out his hand and patted Zheng Yanqing's shoulder. Good fellow, this old man's hands are harder than iron, and he really deserves to be called a sledgehammer. Yan Qing held it strongly, and he was able to withstand the strength of the male sledgehammer.

But unbeknownst to him, the male sledgehammer nodded secretly.

"Big Nose, your grandson is much better than you."

Zheng Shi'an smiled and sat down at the table with a smug expression. Yan Qing sat respectfully behind him, one body behind. Who knows, the male sledgehammer is unhappy, "Zheng boy, sit so far away and look down on my old man?" ”

"You guy, don't make noise, Yanqing is a courtesy."

"Keeping a bird salute...... In my case, there aren't so many rules. It's like being under the Governor of Dadu, casually, casually. ”

"Don't talk nonsense with you!" Zheng Shi'an snorted, and then asked, "Sledgehammer, how are the past two years?" ”

"What a bird."

Male sledgehammer opened his mouth and scolded: "Staying in this bird place all day, I'm about to suffocate to death." You say, why don't you fight in this world? A few years ago, I was still fighting and killing, and my business was also passable. Now that I don't fight, all I have left is to drink and eat. ”

Zheng Yanqing couldn't interject, so he looked around.

Suddenly, his gaze froze.

At the door of the lobby, I saw a half-sized boy squatting, with messy hair, shirtless, holding a large bay in his hand, gobbling it up.

"That's my nephew."

When the male sledgehammer spoke, he found that Zheng Yanqing was watching the kid eating, and he couldn't help sighing, and said in a deep voice: "He is the grandson of the sixth child." The sixth child died in Liyang...... His daughter-in-law was pregnant with a wild seed and died after giving birth to him. This baby has a hard life, and he actually came back to life. It's just that the head melon seeds are not good, but this food intestine is wide, and it can be eaten more than Xiongwei.

Anyway, it's the baby of the Xiong family, so I let him stay.

In the past, when business was good, it was nothing. Now that the baby is getting older, the amount of food is becoming more and more amazing. I don't know how long I can last...... Big nose, if you have any good doorways, take care of the old brother. ”

Zheng Shi'an smiled bitterly, "I want to, but now, I can't protect myself." ”

"How?"

Zheng Shi'an then told him about his current situation, and finally said: "Sledgehammer, I came today to see how the old brothers are doing." If you have any problems, just tell me that I can help you while I can now.

The big man is here, everything is okay to say. The eldest man is gone......

Alas, the eldest lord has taken care of me all my life, and I really don't want to annoy the eldest lord again because of this incident. In this way, Sledgehammer, I will write a letter to the Great Master to explain the matter here. It's really not good, you go to Xingyang? ”

"I'm not going!"

The male sledgehammer pulled down his face, "Lao Tzu has not yet fallen, and he lives on other people's alms." But the big nose, the eldest prince is not authentic, and letting a girl be the master of the house is really a shame for the governor. I thought about it, if I really can't get along, I'll take the children to my hometown. If it really doesn't work, we'll go to Taiyuan. ”

Taiyuan is subordinate to the state, and there are often Turkic borders.

It seems that Xiong Da Hammer also heard some news and wanted to go to Taiyuan to make a living. Think about it, if you are in Taiyuan, you must be able to survive in the iron industry.

But Zheng Shi'an stopped the sledgehammer.

"Big hammer, listen to my brother, don't go to Taiyuan."

"How?"

"That place doesn't stop, you may be able to earn a living if you go there, but if you don't get it right, you will lose your surname."

Yes, Taiyuan was under the rule of Yang Liang, the king of the Han Dynasty......

Zheng Shi'an had no way to explain it, so he had to stop the male sledgehammer vaguely. He thought for a moment, "Big Hammer, don't worry about it first, if it's inconvenient to have it, just tell my brother." While the old brother is still in Luoyang, help you think of ideas.

If I can't figure out a way, you make a decision, and I won't stop you. ”

"Since you said so, big nose, then I'll listen to you."

At this time, Zheng Yanqing walked up to the eldest son. The little boy was half-squatting, but his height was about the same height as Yan Qing was standing. The tendon flesh of the whole body, you can see that the strength is amazing. He also ignored Yanqing and gobbled up.

"Hey, what's your name?" Zheng Yanqing asked suddenly.

The eldest son raised his head, glanced at Yan Qing, and said angrily: "Who are you, why should I tell you?" ”

"Big man, my name is Zheng Yanqing."

"Well, my name is Xiongdahai."

The eldest son replied quietly, then lowered his head and continued to eat, completely ignoring Yan Qing's outstretched hand.

The male sledgehammer said: "Don't take it to heart, baby, Da Heizi is like this to anyone, you don't have to be like him." ”――――――――――――――――――――
