Chapter 166: The Visitor
Lin Jianzhang went to the village chief Hu Liangcai to arrange for everyone to stay, eat and rest.
Lin Huaiguo, Xu Jingyuan, Liu Changzheng and others quietly stepped forward and squeezed into the crowd of onlookers.
In the middle of the courtyard sat a group of children, the oldest in their teens, the youngest being six or seven years old, but these children basically held their heads high and listened intently to the story told by a young man in a black jacket who looked neat and tidy.
In a circle, there are villagers from Lingziding Village.
No one spoke, everyone listened intently.
Except for the occasional rustling of the wind through the treetops, only Pang Xuelin's voice echoed over the courtyard.
“…… However, it was said that at the fifth watch of midnight, the warship on which Zhuge Liang and Lu Su were riding approached Cao Cao's water village. Zhuge Liang ordered the soldiers to swing the bow of the ship in a row and then beat drums and shout on the boat.
Lu Su was shocked and asked Zhuge Liang: 'If Cao Bing kills out, won't we be captured?' ’
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "I expected that Cao Cao would not dare to attack in the fog. We'll just drink and have fun, and we'll go back when the fog clears. ’
At this time, in Cao Jun's water village, he could hear the drums and shouts, and Mao Jue and Yu Ban hurriedly flew to Cao Cao.
When Cao Cao heard this, he sent an order: 'Heavy fog and misty river, their soldiers suddenly killed, there must be an ambush among them, don't go out easily.' Adjustable sailors, crossbowmen, and arrows shoot back. ’
So he sent people to the dry village to summon Zhang Liao and Xu Huang with 3,000 crossbowmen each, and hurried to the riverside to help shoot.
When the order was handed down, Mao Jue and Yu Ban were afraid that the southern army would rush into the water village, so they had already sent crossbowmen to release arrows in front of the village. After a while, more than 10,000 crossbowmen from the dry village also arrived together, and they all fired arrows into the river, and suddenly the arrows were fired in unison......"
Pang Xuelin is telling the story of Zhuge Liang's grass boat borrowing arrows, his tone is not hurried, but there is a different taste.
In this era, CCTV's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is still being filmed, and it will not be broadcast until next year.
Therefore, Pang Xuelin borrowed from the 94 version of the TV series to talk about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which makes people feel refreshed.
Of course, this sense of novelty is only for Lin Huaiguo and them.
Few of the villagers in Lingziding Village are literate, and they just come to listen to the excitement.
"This is Pang Xuelin, I didn't expect to be able to tell the story of the Three Kingdoms so interestingly, it's a bit interesting."
Xu Jingyuan whispered to Liu Changzheng on the side.
"It's really funny, and it's a skill to get the whole village to come out and listen to his story!"
Liu Changzheng squinted and said.
Compared with Lin Huaiguo, Xu Jingyuan, and Liu Changzheng, Li Zhiguo and Xie Yongxin from the Chinese Academy of Sciences also showed surprise on their faces.
Li Zhiguo, vice president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and director of the Institute of Mathematics, has deep research in the field of number theory and algebraic geometry, while Xie Yongxin, president of the Chinese Mathematical Society, is an expert in the field of differential geometry and partial differential equations.
The two came over this time, and the purpose was clearer.
They wanted to see for themselves how good Pang Xuelin was in mathematics.
In other words, they wanted to personally verify whether Pang Xuelin's idea of proving Fermat's conjecture was valid.
But they didn't expect that Pang Xuelin's academic level in the field of mathematics had not yet been seen, but they first saw Pang Xuelin's ability in literature and history and the level of storytelling.
Pang Xuelin's tone was very stable, and he was very good at creating suspense and conflict, so unconsciously, Lin Huaiguo and the others gradually calmed down into Pang Xuelin's story.
Minutes and seconds passed.
It wasn't until half past seven in the evening that Pang Xuelin finished talking about the preliminary preparations of the forces of the Chibi War, and he smiled and said: "Okay, the time is almost up, today we will talk about it first, tomorrow we will officially talk about the Chibi War, Zhuge Liang of the Seven Star Altar cast a spell to borrow the east wind, and Zhou Gongjin of Sanjiangkou set fire to break the Cao boat......"
"Teacher Pang, can't you talk more?"
"That's right, Mr. Pang, the big guy is listening hard!"
……
Pang Xuelin said with a smile: "It's okay to say two hours a day, no more, let's disperse, ...... tomorrow Tomorrow I will make sure you hear it well! ”
Seeing that Pang Xuelin said this, the villagers had no choice but to disperse with the children.
As everyone left one by one, Pang Xuelin noticed the old men who stayed at the scene and the two staff members who were holding cameras to film.
At this time, Lin Jianzhang, who had been standing in the corner, hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Teacher Pang, let me introduce you, this is Deputy Director Lin of our G Province, this is Liu of the Ministry of Education, this is Xu of the Ministry of Science and Technology, this is Vice President Li of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and this is President Xie of the Chinese Mathematical Society......"
"Teacher Pang, hello, I took the liberty to come and disturb you!"
Lin Huaiguo took the lead in stretching out his hand and smiled.
"Deputy Chief Lin, hello!"
Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned, his face did not show too much surprise, and he stretched out his hand to shake hands with these bigwigs one by one and say hello.
When he finally shook hands with Xie Yongxin, president of the Chinese Mathematical Society, Pang Xuelin said: "President Xie, my paper submitted to Princeton's Annals of Mathematics has been published?" ”
Xie Yongxin's eyes flashed, he breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and said with a smile: "Teacher Pang, that paper was really written by you, but I didn't expect that the Fermat conjecture that has plagued our mathematical community for more than 300 years was solved by you, and it was really a hero out of a teenager!" ”
Lin Huaiguo, Liu Changzheng and others also glanced at each other one after another, on the one hand, they didn't expect Pang Xuelin to guess their intentions so quickly, and on the other hand, they were also surprised that Pang Xuelin was so calm.
After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, they can be regarded as big shots.
Pang Xuelin still maintained such a humble and arrogant attitude when facing them, which is enough to show that he is extraordinary.
Pang Xuelin smiled faintly and said: "President Xie has won the award, I also have a flash of inspiration, everyone come in and sit, it's cold outside, Ah Qing, go make tea for your grandfather!" ”
"Oh!"
Ah Qing, who was standing on the side, answered, and quickly turned around and entered the hall.
Lin Jianzhang helped Pang Xuelin move a few chairs into the hall, and then moved the charcoal basin for the fire.
Everyone sat down in the hall, and soon, Ah Qing brought steaming tea, and everyone drank a few sips to dispel the chill on their bodies.
Liu Changzheng took the lead in speaking up: "Mr. Pang, I believe you already know the intention of our coming, in fact, your paper has not been officially published yet, but just a few days ago, the New York Times has published news about you on the front page, and Deligne, the head of the Department of Mathematics at Princeton University, has also recognized your results, and it is estimated that your paper will be included in the "Annals of Mathematics" published in March, and Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton have officially sent you an invitation. I hope you can go to the United States to give an academic report on Fermat's conjecture, and we come here this time, on the one hand, to verify whether this paper was written by you, and on the other hand, we want to ask if you would like to go to Princeton to hold an academic report. ”
