Chapter 2 slaps Master Cen in the face
Master Cen's study is the most famous place in the entire Ningyuan Town, because Mayor Yu walked out from here. The families who go to school here are also slightly better off than ordinary people.
Just like Luo Guichen's appearance in front of everyone in brand-new clothes would not cause any surprise, of course, frankly speaking, a few uncompetitive girls secretly glanced at the latter.
"Alas, Xiaocui, have you heard? This is the little prodigy in the town!"
"Shhh, I've heard about it a long time ago, you keep quiet, I don't know what the teacher just explained. The other girl couldn't see an expression on her face, closed the book in her hand and looked up, and said with some surprise: "Didn't you say that the prodigy is unkempt and hateful?"
But in fact, it's quite delicate.
Luo Guichen said politely: "Hello classmates, I'm Luo ......."
"Don't be ashamed, come down quickly, we can also enter the study?" exclaimed Mazi Face, and threw a brush at the latter.
Luo Guichen was a little angry at the moment, and he was embarrassed to smash Master Cen's signboard, but things always developed unexpectedly. He squatted down and picked up the brush that had fallen on the ground and said, "That's a lot easier, isn't it?" Senior brothers, I don't think the word "education" is not very good, is this study opened by his family?"
The pock-faced young man just wanted to reply, but he noticed a cold gaze and immediately closed his mouth.
"Senior Brother Luo, we are just here to test whether you have real talent and learning, after all, we have long heard the name of the little prodigy. The young man in Chinese clothes spoke: "What that senior brother did just now was really a bit abrupt, and I will accompany him." My name is Yu Fangzheng. β
Luo Guichen found a stool to sit down at random, felt uncomfortable, moved his ass to the table again and asked without raising his head: "What does Master Cen mean?"
"It has nothing to do with the teacher, we want to ask the prodigy for advice in private. Yu Fangzheng kept silent about this topic, he was already fifteen years old, his appearance had grown slightly, some handsome appearance, coupled with a kind face, his speech was naturally convincing.
Just last night, Master Cen leaked all the questions of the essay exam of this Dragon Riding Club to the latter.
"Since it's a consultation, then don't we add a color, so as not to be boring, don't you say?" Luo Guichen's face suddenly turned naΓ―ve, if the shopkeeper Luo was here at this moment, he would definitely scold secretly, this kid is not sure how to be bad in his heart.
"If you lose, you will get out of Ningyuan Town. Yu Fangzheng said: "Or be my half-Jiazi's house slave, how about it?"
There was a strong self-confidence in his words, genius, and so did I! So he knew more about the role of being five years older than Luo Guichen, and in every way, he believed that he was 100% superior to the latter.
"Okay, if I win, you will be my apprentice for two days. Luo Guichen hesitated before saying, "Master Cen doesn't come out to make a notary?"
After a long time, there was a cough in the back room.
Master Cen walked out with a gloomy face, and said in a cold tone: "Guichen, Qingming has not passed yet," the implication is, where should you go there, don't hang around in my study anymore.
The conditions mentioned by this kid seem simple, but in fact, they are properly slapped in the face of Master Cen, this kid is here to kick the hall. Don't say it's two days, not even half a moment.
It can be seen that all the students are looking forward to this debate now, and Master Cen can't stop it.
"Master Cen has forgotten that just after the Qingming Festival, people should take more supplements when they are old and think more about their bodies. Luo Guichen's ability to open his eyes and talk nonsense is very good, and there is no respect for the teacher in his words, because he has long guessed who Yu Fangzheng represents today.
Bastard, I've lived half my life, and I can't remember if I'm clear or not. Master Cen subconsciously thought, and before he could speak, the students below coaxed: "Master, it's been clear." β
"Yes, Master, Qingming has long passed. β
......
Luo Guichen smiled, it didn't matter whether he was clear or not, he knew very well that what these students wanted to see was just a comparison between new and old geniuses.
"Brother Yu, don't you go to us to hold it in the bazaar, so that the people can be exposed to the edification of the sages?" Luo Guichen said very politely.
Yu Fangzheng's eyes rolled, and he said with an expression of respect for the old and love for the young, "What the junior brother said is very true, quite a sage's style. β
Immediately, the group went to the market,
Ningyuan Town is very small, so small that the news spreads to half the town in half an instant. The hustle and bustle of the streets undoubtedly adds a touch of fun to a peaceful life.
As soon as Luo Guichen turned around, he saw Lao Luo who was caught in the crowd, Lao Luo was not burly, and it was very difficult to squeeze into the front row. He stole a smile from the latter.
"Isn't this the kid from the Luo family! It's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and even Mayor Yu's own son dares to challenge. β
"Brother, it's not like you haven't seen this kid's ability, I don't think he will lose. "Cheongsam said quite pertinently.
In the middle of the crowd, Luo Guichen smiled and said, "Senior Brother Yu, why don't we just use fame and fortune to argue?"
Luo Guichen was about to think about the following words, but Master Cen suddenly said in a loud voice: "Guichen, since there is a problem, let your senior brother choose first, otherwise it will be unfair." It's no wonder, after all, this controversy has a great impact on Zen Fuzi's study, and he is very worried, but he can only trust Yu Fangzheng at the moment.
Luo Guichen secretly scolded the old fox, and Yu Fangzheng on the other side had a smile on his face even more, fame and fortune have been debated since ancient times, but most of the mainstream is fame, and the subconscious of such a thing as profit has been suppressed, not to mention the simple mountain town.
"That square is disrespectful. Yu Fangzheng said generously: "In ancient times, there were thieves, 9,000 people, rampant in the world, invading and tyrannizing princes; cave room pivots, driving people and horses, taking women; greedy and forgetting relatives, ignoring parents and brothers, and not sacrificing ancestors. The towns that passed, the big countries guarded the city, and the small countries were insured. Correcting its cause and effect, it is benevolence and righteousness that do not work in the world, if you do it, you will believe, you will believe it, and you will benefit it. Therefore, the name of the view is the benefit of the plan, and the righteousness is really also. β
After saying that, everyone nodded yes, even Master Cen was smiling, Yu Fangzheng's words were extremely beautiful, and the ancient sayings that ordinary people couldn't understand, the winning rate would be much greater.
Luo Guichen rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly: "Senior brother, you can't say something that everyone can understand, it's too troublesome to get around in the clouds." β
People who don't understand are still in the majority, so the words resonate as soon as they come out.
Yu Fangzheng spit out a sentence coldly: "I think you little prodigy is afraid that you are just a false name, and if you don't understand, you will admit defeat." "Confidence, strong confidence.
"The shameless are rich, and the great profit is shameless. Luo Guichen couldn't see a trace of panic on his face, Shi Shiran said: "The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit, nature dictates, why annihilate nature, sacrifice the basics?"
The words are loud. Master Cen's face was difficult to look at, and many students were just like the people, with excitement on their faces, so this kind of debate can be interesting.
"In the past, he was the son of heaven, rich in the world, and now he is called Zang Ju, and you are like a tree, then there is a sting, there is a disobedience, and the villain is cheap. Zhong Ni and Mo Zhai are poor husbands, and now they are called prime ministers, and their sons are like Zhong Ni and Mo Zhai, and they are easy to be called insufficient, and they are honest and noble. Therefore, the potential is the Son of Heaven, not necessarily expensive, the poor are the husband, not necessarily cheap, the distinction between the noble and the low, and the evil and beauty in the practice. Yu Fangzheng was also aroused in his heart, and at the end he asked fiercely: "Tell me, which is more important than fame and fortune!"
Luo Guichen was silent, but everyone was talking in private.
"Lao Liu, what did I say, this kid Ma De doesn't measure himself, and he doesn't weigh his own catties. The middle-aged man spat and said, "The edamame hasn't grown all together." β
As soon as the words fell, the head was hit hard, and the man turned his head and immediately punched him.
"How do you speak, I see that you owe it. Lao Luo dodged a punch and then scuffled with the man.
"The petty thief is detained, and the big thief is the prince, and only within the door of the princes can there be morality. In the past, Duke Huan Xiaobai killed his brother and sister-in-law and Guan Zhong was a minister, Tian Chengzi often killed the monarch and stole the country and Confucius received coins. Luo Guichen was a little surprised, of course, this surprise was not brought to him by Yu Fangzheng, just now, the step he was holding in his arms suddenly overflowed with a wisp of breath, warming his limbs and bones. He felt more and more that it was a treasure.
"Why do you talk about relatives and relatives, nobles and lowly, five disciplines and six ranks?" Yu Fangzheng's face was gloomy, and he continued: "If the name does not exist, the education of the Gang Chang will not be completely ruined!"
Generally speaking, the so-called fame is just fame and fame, but Yu Fangzheng skillfully led the problem to the aspect of human ethics, and used the momentum accumulated by his predecessors to defeat Luo and return to the ministers.
It stands to reason that only a small number of people can see it, most of them are pondering, and even Luo Guichen is hanging his head slightly.
"Yao kills the eldest son, Shun exiles the brother of the same mother, what is the common thing between relatives and relatives? Shang Tang chases Xia Ji, and King Wu destroys Shang, what are the criteria between the noble and the low? Wang Ji is the elder, Zhou Gong kills his brother, the elder and the youngest are all bullshit! Hypocrisy and love! What is the difference between the 'Five Disciplines' and the 'Six Ranks'?" The more Luo Guichen spoke, the more he felt happy, as if he spit out a sullen breath in his heart.
"The villain dies for money, and the gentleman dies for the name. As long as you obey your heart and have a good mind, why change your original intention, Brother Yu's heart is all about fame and fortune, so it is better to follow your heart. Compare Gan's heart, Zixu picks his eyes, and the disaster of loyalty is also; bows directly to the father, the tail is drowned, and the trouble of faith is also; Bao Zi is dry, Shenzi does not take care of himself, and the harm of honesty is also; Confucius does not see his mother, Kuangzi does not see his father, and the loss of righteousness is also. Luo Guichen turned to the people in front of him and bowed his head and said, "I hope everyone, don't lose your temperament." β
There was a faint sound of wind and thunder in the words, although Luo Guichen's appearance was very cute, but no one despised it, and they were all courtesy.
Master Cen was bitter in his heart, he had seen this kind of anomaly in ancient books, it was people's words or ideas that attracted this world, or it was to conform to it.
The students are like frosted eggplants, at first they just had the attitude of watching the show, but if they really want to lose, they will not feel better.
Yu Fangzheng opened his mouth to say something, but only let out a breath of turbidity, not only he knew, but others also knew that he lost.
"I knew you kid had a great mouth. Lao Luo shouted in the crowd: "See, this is all taught by Lao Tzu." β
Luo Guichen covered his head with some annoyance, and the atmosphere he had finally created was easily broken by Lao Luo. However, he reacted very quickly and said: "If you want to learn knowledge, you can come to the Luojia Inn, and I will not accept the tea money." β
As he spoke, he swept over Yu Fangzheng, not questioning the previous bet at all.
Yu Fangzheng felt that more and more eyes were converging on him, looking at the people next to him subconsciously moving away from him, and at the moment, his heart was horizontal, and he was about to blurt out.
"Teacher......" readers, the most despised is that they have no faith in their words, and they will not stand up if they have no faith.
"In broad daylight, gather people to gamble, what kind of system will it become, give you ten breaths, don't leave, the official will let you eat official dinner!" The voice was very stern, and Hei Xinyu led a group of officials over.
The fact that the people do not fight with the officials has been the truth since ancient times.
After a while, the bustling crowd dispersed. Luo Guichen stood in place for a long time, while Uncle Luo was in front of him, staring at the officials who came over with a fierce face.
Yu Chengxuan waved his hand, and the two of them saw at this time that the latter was actually full of respect for the inconspicuous old man beside him.
"Cloud people, I'm sorry to waste your time again. Yu Chengxuan looked flattering, then turned his head and shouted, "Zheng'er, I haven't come to see the Venerable Master yet." β
The people on the clouds were extremely mediocre, wearing linen coarse clothes, and their stature was not high, but the majesty that faintly leaked out when he spoke made Lao Luo tremble.
"It's okay, your son is good. The cloud man said lightly, then walked towards Luo Guichen, and with a wave of his hand, Lao Luo, who was in front of the latter, retreated to both sides.
"Gather to gamble, little boy, don't you want to eat official dinner?" asked the cloud man.
"I don't understand what the Venerable Master meant, but we are a group of good people, and we are talking about gambling, gathering people, so that we will not eat official meals. Luo Guichen's hand behind his back trembled slightly, but his tone was as calm as possible.
"Venerable Master, we are gambling. Yu Fangzheng suddenly blurted out, obviously this old man, who was valued by his father, must be profound, and he didn't mind falling into the well.
"Oh?" the cloud man slowly tilted his head sideways and said, "Why did I let you speak?" A hand suddenly stretched out, and Yu Fangzheng came to the cloud man uncontrollably, and the latter grabbed his neck and easily lifted him in the air.
As the son-in-law of Ningyuan Town, how could he have received this kind of treatment, and he threw a punch at the cloud at the moment.
"Stop. Yu Chengxuan drank vigorously, he knew the origin of this person on the cloud, even if he destroyed the entire town, he was afraid that it would not be effortless.
"The Venerable Master, I have no way to teach my son, and I hope that the Venerable Master will show mercy to his subordinates. Yu Chengxuan's attitude was very low.
Luo Guichen was shocked when he saw it, and he vaguely linked the middle-aged man opposite to the Chenglong Club in his mind.
The people on the cloud looked at the thoughtful Luo Guichen and said, "He said gambling, how should you explain it?" In fact, he also had a love for talents, and he didn't mind being kind to this kind of clever seedling.
"He didn't call me Master, and I didn't become a house slave, how can this bet be established?" Luo Guichen's nose climbed with beads of sweat, facing this kind of strong man, reversing right and wrong does have a good psychological quality.
The man on the cloud took a deep look at the young man opposite, and the neck that was pinching Yu Fangzheng gradually loosened. He said repeatedly: "Okay, good, little boy, you are really good." β
The momentum that inadvertently exudes is as majestic as a macro.
It's night.
The Luojia Inn closed early, and on the second floor, the candlelight came out through the veil, sparsely covering the entire room.
The shopkeeper of Luo Da was gloomy, stared at the young man opposite and said, "Let's talk about what happened today." β
Luo Guichen was silent, and without letting go, he looked at the shopkeeper Luo Da opposite and asked, "Did I do anything wrong?"
"The wings are stiff, I can't control you. Do you kid know the identity of the person on the cloud!" The shopkeeper Luo Da jumped like thunder, shaking the candlelight for a moment, and continued to roar: "We almost can't come back today." β
Luo Guichen thought for a while, poured a cup of tea for the latter, and respectfully handed it over: "You're right, I was reckless." β
The shopkeeper Luo Da glanced at him angrily, drank the tea in one go, and said: "Half of my old bones are buried in the soil, it doesn't matter if I leave it there, Lao Tzu is worried about you kid." We can't just be hot-headed, we must consider the consequences in everything. β
Luo Guichen's heart was moved, now not only offended Master Cen, but even the Yu family hated himself, the price of slapping his face once was not small, but he would still do it once, his thoughts were not clear, and he was unapologetic.
"Lao Tzu looks at the girl in the Wang family's rice shop is good, why don't you finalize this matter?" Luo Da's shopkeeper's eyes flashed, and he hit the railroad while it was hot: "I heard that the girl of the Wang family has a good influence on you." β
...... Luo Guichen took a deep breath and said, "Uncle Luo, Widow Zhang, who sells tofu flowers, also said something to me, are you interested in hearing about it?"
"Insidious. The shopkeeper of Luo Da thought of Widow Zhang's appearance, and felt a chill in his heart.
"Uncle Li in the pharmacy, I know him very well. Coldly threw out this sentence, and Luo Guichen went straight to bed. But the corners of his mouth are clearly overflowing with a smile, which is very sinister.
The shopkeeper of Luo Da glanced at the corner of his mouth, Li Wangba's sweat medicine was very useful on himself.
