Chapter 456: Falling Short?

With the defeat of Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi, two famous talents in the south of the Yangtze River, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoWith these two talents as a compensation cushion, the people of Nanjing City also have a new understanding of Liu Fan's talent, and they really saw Liu Fan's easy victory, and they also had a little more admiration for him.

And such a result is the last thing the Donglin Party wants to see, Zhang Pu himself is even more anxious, and his liver is furious, and he repeatedly urges the backbone of the Restoration Society to come to power and defeat Liu Fan as soon as possible. Fortunately, there are still a lot of talents in the Restoration Society, and the Restoration Society is not a club, but a dozen associations in the south of the Yangtze River, with more than 1,000 members, radiating the entire Jiangnan.

Xia Yunyi, Hou Qizeng, Yang Tingshu, Gui Zhuang, Lu Shiyi, Qu Shiyun and other backbone members of the Restoration Society took the stage one after another, challenging Liu Fan one by one from astronomy, calculus, water conservancy, governance, famine relief, salt law and many other aspects. But in the end, he was crushed by Liu Fan, and in less than an hour, more than a dozen people were defeated.

If you want to say that compared to moral articles, poems and songs, ten Liu Fan tied up is not anyone's opponent. But compared to these things that include mathematics, physics and chemistry, agriculture and current politics, everyone in the entire Jiangnan is really Liu Fan's opponent. After all, his knowledge of more than ten years was not learned in vain.

From Gu Yanwu's debut on the stage to the beginning of the war to Qu Shiyun's gloomy walk to the stage, no one could defeat Liu Fan in more than two hours, such a result shocked everyone present, and the Fushe side was even more disgraced, almost unable to raise his head. What made Zhang Pu most uncomfortable was that they couldn't find a scholar who was "proficient in miscellaneous studies", and even Zhang Pu himself was not very proficient in other miscellaneous studies. More than a dozen so-called erudite talents were defeated, and Zhang Pu asked himself that there would be no other result except for adding a more brilliant record to Liu Fan's level.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side: "Tianrugong, let me go for this last moment!" ”

Zhang Pu turned his head and looked at it, and said in astonishment, "Bijiang, you don't seem to be very good at these miscellaneous studies, right?" ”

"Hmm!" Mao Bijiang smiled bitterly and said, "This incident was caused by me and Hou Fangyu, and it was me who agreed to make an appointment with Liu Fan. Now in this situation, our failure is irreversible. At this time, if I, the initiator, don't even dare to take the stage, my face for resuming the society will be gone! So I'm going to go up and give it a try anyway! ”

Mao Bijiang also has his own difficulties, at that time on the painting boat he said a big thing in front of everyone, now that the restoration of the society has failed, to be held accountable to take most of the responsibility for Mao Bijiang, when the time comes, it will inevitably be pointed out, and the situation is probably not much stronger than Hou Fangyu, who everyone despises. So he must now stand up and make a final understanding, even if he loses, he will not be criticized too harshly.

Zhang Pu thought about it, and seemed to understand the intention of Mao Bijiang, and glanced at Mao Bijiang with a little appreciation, and said, "What Bijiang said is right, even if it is defeated, it must be defeated above board." You can't lose if you lose! There you go! ”

Encouraged by Zhang Pu, the heart that was hanging in the river suddenly fell back into his stomach, and with a "snap", the folding fan was closed, and he tidied up his clothes, holding his head high as if walking on the stage. What the? Answer the question? Does he need anything to be a big man?

Rubbing his somewhat sore eyebrows, Liu Fan looked at Mao Bijiang, who seemed to exude the "spirit of the king" in front of him, and asked with a funny face, "What advice does Mao Gongzi have?" ”

"Don't dare to advise!" Mao Bijiang raised his face, didn't pinch Liu Fan with his eyelids, and said to himself, "Mr. Liu can defeat all Jiangnan Junjie, this miscellaneous science is indeed much stronger than Mao someone." So if you take someone's time, you won't be humiliated, and now you are on stage just to understand the grievances between us, as long as you can defeat me, you and I will be written off from now on. How is it? ”

Liu Fan suppressed the churning anger in his heart, and said with a cold face: "Anyone can say big things, Mao Gongzi wants to win the governor first, and then talk about this!" Mao Gongzi, please ask! ”

"Hmph, I don't know how to lift!" , Mao Bijiang felt that it was already a great favor for them Donglin to stop chasing Liu Fan's offense, but he didn't expect Liu Fan to dare not appreciate it. In a hurry, Mao Bijiang felt that there was no need to save face for Liu Fan, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Mao wants to learn about Liu Zongbing's chess skills this time?" Astronomy, calendrical calculations, and mathematics Liu Zongbing are so proficient, presumably this chess should also be very good at it! ”

"Poof!" Compared with the other three, this chess is indeed not a necessary thing for orthodox literature, but a way of entertainment among literati and scholars. Not only the literati association, but even some military generals with family roots can talk about a few hands, but he doesn't know anything about Go! Backgammon would, but does that work? At this moment, Liu Fan is thinking of a big country player Nie Weiping possessing his body or something, and teach this "cat boy" how to behave well!

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Fan still didn't come up with a way to deal with it, looking at Mao Bijiang's triumphant and stinky face, Liu Fan pushed his head and said dejectedly, "This governor doesn't know anything about chess, ask yourself if it's not, Mao Gongzi's opponent!" Well, you won! ”

"Ouch!" Mao Bijiang pretended to be surprised and said, "Mr. Liu doesn't know how to play chess, my son still thinks that Mr. Liu is proficient in all miscellaneous studies!" It turns out that Mr. Liu also doesn't understand things! That being the case, what about our previous agreement? ”

"Nature counts!" Liu Fan gritted his back molars and replied with a painful face, "Ben Du is willing to gamble and lose, and he will never regret what he has said, so I apologize to you!" ”

Liu Fan said, his straight body with a black face slowly bent down, and he was very unwilling to say, "I, Liu Fan, admit that it is better to take the plunge..."

"Wait!" At this moment, a sharp voice suddenly sounded in the ears of the two, and everyone heard the voice, only to see Zhang Yixian quickly ascending to the high platform, pointing at Mao Bijiang with an angry face and saying loudly, "Mao Bijiang!" Didn't you understand what the miscellaneous family said before? This competition is not about martial arts, but only about miscellaneous studies! Could it be that things like qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are not included in the text? You blatantly break the rules! Is this contempt for the referee? ”

Zhang Yixian's words were full of emotion, and he almost pointed at Mao Bijiang's nose and scolded. Seeing Zhang Yixian's face full of anger, he was also trembling in his heart, although he hated the "dead eunuch" in front of him, but he was a eunuch in Nanjing, one of the most noble and powerful people in Jiangnan, and he couldn't afford to offend with a small showman.
