Chapter 41: Apprenticeship with Cai Yong

"Ahem, cough, cough" The old man saw his daughter, and then made such an excessive behavior, and suddenly became anxious again, but it was not good to teach his daughter again and again in front of Bai Qi, an outsider, which also made his face dull, so he hurriedly coughed to remind his daughter, but he was also strange, his daughter on weekdays, let alone skin kissing, even did not want to say anything to the man, I don't know what is going on today.

The girl on the other side, after hearing her father's coughing voice, also immediately realized that she seemed to have made a mistake again, and quickly put her hand away, and looked at her father, when he saw his father's terrifying eyes, he trembled and immediately shrank into the corner of the carriage like a kitten.

Bai Qi didn't notice all this, because he really thought, how should he answer the old man's question, how to say, could it be said that he had already converted to Buddhism? At this time, although Buddhism had been introduced to China, it had not yet been recognized by the Han people, so it was not a wise choice to say so.

"Here's the thing, my parents died in the invasion of the alien race, so since then I have sworn that I will return to the Han army and not destroy the alien race, and I will not save my hair" said Bai Qi and shed a few tears, these tears were not deliberately done by Bai Qi, but this panic made Bai Qi think of his identity as an orphan, and a sad emotion suddenly came to his heart, making Bai Qi cry sadly.

"Original" After listening to Bai Qi's words, the old man also fell into deep thought, how difficult it is to exterminate the alien race, this requires the efforts of a generation or even several generations, and it may not be able to be completed, but what the old man is thinking about now is whether to help Bai Qi.

"Big brother, it turns out that your life is so miserable, I feel so sorry for you," said the girl, and held Bai Qi's hand.

"Hmm" After hearing the girl's words, the old man suddenly screamed that it was not good, and quickly turned his head to look, and suddenly cried bitterly, what is wrong with her daughter, today it seems that she has changed a person.

And Bai Qi also looked at the girl dumbfounded, didn't he say that ancient women were very reserved? Why do you always take advantage of yourself.

After seeing Bai Qi's eyes, the girl hurriedly let go of her hand, "Don't think about me, I haven't shaken other men's hands, ah no, I haven't let other men touch them, ah, no" The girl turned her head to the side after finding that she was getting darker and darker, and stopped talking.

"It seems that your ambition is not small, but great ambition must be wise, the old man will test you, if you can pass the old man's test, the old man can help you introduce you, let you enter the court as an official, if you can satisfy the old man, the old man can also accept you as an apprentice" After thinking about three, the old man finally made a choice, first of all, he was ready to take a test of Bai Qi's talent.

"Take me as an apprentice? Who is this old man" Bai Qi was very strange, although he knew that the old man in front of him was an official, but Bai Qi never thought that this old man could make himself an official in the court with just one sentence, it seems that his identity is far from being as simple as he thought, after all, he is the person who dares to call the name of the emperor of the dynasty.

"The student is unreasonable, dare to ask who you are" Although it was very impolite, Bai Qi still asked.

"Hahaha, blame me, I've known each other for so long, and I haven't introduced myself yet, the old man Cai Yong, now happens to be an official in the court, and the necessary flowers can help you introduce one or two" The old man revealed his identity as he spoke.

"Big brother, my name is Cai Yan, you can call me Yan'er" Of course, the girl can't be less, and immediately turned her head and introduced herself to Bai Qi with a smile.

"Cai Cai Cai, Cai Yong, Cai Yan, just let me meet" Bai Qi was a little trembling, he never thought that he would be able to meet the big people of the Three Kingdoms period just after crossing over, which is still lucky to say that he is lucky.

"Hahaha, you don't have to be surprised, I happened to go out of the city to visit friends today, and I met you who were injured, it seems that this is fate, how can you be willing to accept my test"

"Willing, of course willing" Bai Qi is worried about how to develop in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, this is really sleepy, someone will send a pillow.

"Okay, I'll ask you three questions next, if your answer satisfies me, I can recommend you to join the court as an official, or even take you as an apprentice, you listen well" Cai Yong also touched his white beard.

After hearing Bai Qi's words, Bai Qi straightened down and said "Okay" very seriously

"Come, first question, what is the Han Empire like today?"

"This" Bai Qi didn't know how to answer, and he was afraid that if he said it truthfully, it would cause the displeasure of the great Confucian in front of him.

"Tell me the truth?"

"Tell the truth"

"Terminally ill"

"Big brother, how can you say that, quickly apologize to your father" After hearing Bai Qi's words, Cai Yan suddenly became anxious, she clearly knew that her father was a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, if Bai Qi's words caused her father's displeasure, nothing would necessarily happen, who said that literati don't kill people.

However, Bai Qi and Cai Yong didn't pay attention to Cai Yan, but looked at each other and stared at each other.

It can be said that Bai Qi is gambling, he doesn't believe that a great Confucian who can leave a name in history will not even be able to see the current situation of the Han Dynasty?

"Okay second question, now the big man can be saved, and are you loyal to the man?"

"If you want to save the Han, you need to use fierce medicine at the right time, and the plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky, and I am loyal to the Han nation"

"Timing?"

"Don't say," Bai Qi shook his head.

"The third question, what is a teacher?"

"Well, the scholars of the ancients must have teachers. Teacher, so preaching and receiving karma to solve doubts. If people are not born to know, how can they be free from confusion? If you are confused and do not follow the teacher, it is confused, and you will not be able to solve it. Before I was born, he heard the Tao before me, and I learned from him; After being born to me, he heard the Tao before me, and I learned from him. My teacher is also the way, and the husband knows that he was born in my year? Therefore, there is no noble and low, no long and no less, the Tao exists, and the teacher exists. After hearing this question, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and without hesitation, he recited the ancient Chinese "teacher said" that he learned when he was in school.

"Wow, big brother, you're so amazing" After hearing Bai Qi's answer, Cai Yan's eyes looked at Bai Qi with a little peach.

"Good one, the Tao exists, the teacher exists, the old man is the first time to hear such an opinion, the understanding of the teacher is ingenious, good text, good text, I don't know if you have a name for this article, but there will be a follow-up" This time Cai Yong did not stop Cai Yan, because he was also amazed by Bai Qi's article.

"Since it's a teacher, it's called the teacher, as for the follow-up, the student still has some understanding, and no one plays" Bai Qi said truthfully, after all, he just memorized the first paragraph of the teacher's words.

"Okay, after returning to Luoyang, I will give you an inscription, your teacher said that it will be passed down for a hundred generations" Cai Yong looked happy, and then asked with a straight look, "Now the old man asks you, are you willing to worship me as a teacher"

I, I, I" Bai Qi was so excited that he couldn't speak.

"Don't be in a hurry, the old man is in a hurry" Seeing Bai Qi's excited appearance, Cai Yong already knew the result, and smiled and wisped his long hair.

"I'm willing" After calming down, Bai Qi said his choice very firmly.

"Okay, old man"

"Great, big brother, isn't it true that we can always play together in the future?" Before Cai Yong finished speaking, Cai Yan next to him "swished" to Bai Qi's side and grabbed Bai Qi's sleeve.

"Oops" At this time, Bai Qi and Cai Yan suddenly heard Cai Yong's cry of pain, and hurriedly looked at Cai Yong.

"Dad, are you alright?"

"Teacher, are you okay?" Since it was already confirmed that he was going to apprentice, Bai Qi naturally changed his words.

"It's okay, it's okay, in this case, let's go back to Luoyang City first, after you recover from your injuries, I'm arranging the apprenticeship ceremony, Inner Yan'er, in front of outsiders, don't lose your sense of proportion like this" said Cai Yong also hid a pinch of beard in his hand into his sleeve.

"It's okay, the teacher must pay attention to his body," Bai Qi said very sincerely.

"What's the matter, Dad, you seem to have lost a pinch of beard."
