Chapter 9 General Shi Wengong
Speaking of Shi Wengong, Wang Han was shocked at the time.
In the fourth grade of primary school, he was familiar with the Water Margin, and he was even more precious to the Water Margin heroes - in fact, the Water Margin hero Wang Han remembered four or five famous ones, except for Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong Wusong, Wang Han remembered a Shi Wengong. The other Water Margin heroes almost forgot about it in the fifth grade of elementary school.
But the name Shi Wengong has been imprinted in Wang Han's mind for a long time, which is because he has a comrade-in-arms who used to be a fan of the Water Margin.
However, this statement is not accurate, Shi Wengong defeated Lu Junyi because of the ghost of Chao Gai, and after a fight to break through, his mental and physical strength are at a low point. And Lu Junyi is waiting for work, taking advantage of the right time, place and people, if the two of them are put into a normal state of fighting, it is not certain who loses and who wins.
The comrades-in-arms once firmly concluded that if Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong fought under the same conditions, it would definitely be Shi Wengong who won, why? Because Shi Wengong is young and can put cold arrows, Lu Junyi is old and must not be an opponent.
Most of the comrades-in-arms don't understand, the age of Shi Wengong and Lu Junyi is not stated in the Water Margin, how can you tell that Shi Wengong is younger?
The comrades-in-arms said that Shi Wengong and Lu Junyi are both disciples of Zhou Dong, Lu Junyi is the eldest disciple, and Shi Wengong is the third disciple, and the third disciple is of course younger than the eldest disciple. Since ancient times, boxers have been afraid of being young and strong, and both of them have the same tricks, of course, the young have the advantage. What's more, Shi Wengong is a teacher in Zengtou City, and it is inevitable that he will dance with guns and sticks every day. Lu Junyi is a big family in Hebei, with fine clothes and fine food, and his physical strength is definitely not as good as Shi Wengong.
For this kind of talk, Wang Han just laughed when he heard it, where did the ancients justify it? But now it's different, how can you not be shocked when the living Shi Wengong appears in your ears?
Combined with Zhou Tong's words, at least it confirms the statement that Shi Wengong is his disciple, otherwise there would not be such a thing as being expelled from the door.
It's just that what did Shi Wengong do to make Zhou Tong lose his temper? Not only must they be expelled from the door, but they must also notify all forbidden military stations not to recruit Shi Wengong into the army, which is tantamount to sealing Shi Wengong's future.
It was definitely not because Shi Wengong stole the money and injured himself, Wang Han knew this.
At the moment, he didn't say much, but he tried his best to show his low eyebrows in front of Mr. Zhou Dong, and he already knew from the old man's words that Zhou Dong had a good relationship with the forbidden army in various places, and he had a good face.
Zhou Tong saw Wang Han's injury, led him into the inner hall, let Wang Han sit in the door, and brought pills and medicinal wine. Let him take the pill first, one into the abdomen, the taste is cold, not two or three minutes, the inside of the chest is burning hot, Wang Han's face is red, and he feels that a ball of qi in his chest is about to burst.
Zhou Tong said: "Hold back, don't shout pain, so that the medicine can be effective." After speaking, he wiped the medicinal wine with his hand and rubbed it on Wang Han's chest and abdomen, and immediately, Wang Han felt that his chest had become an iron plate, struck inside and out, and was extremely hot.
He wanted to shout, but when he heard the old gentleman say that he had to endure it, he didn't dare to shout, and he carried it hard, sweating profusely.
With Zhou Dong's massage, a lot of bright red appeared on Wang Han's chest, and the beige medicinal wine turned reddish-yellow, flowing down his chest, Zhou Dong said: "This is the blood congestion in your body, after it is discharged, there will be no sequelae inside." ”
Wang Han was silent when he heard this, and he only hoped that this ordeal would pass as soon as possible, and it was really uncomfortable to burn inside and outside.
After kneading for more than half an hour, Wang Han felt that the burning inside disappeared, and Zhou Tong stopped and said, "The internal stasis has been discharged, just rest for three or five days." After saying that, he got up and washed his own hands.
Wang Han hurriedly knelt on the spot, kowtowed with his hands on the ground, and said, "The master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship." ”
Saying this, Zhou Tong was startled, and stood with his hands dripping with water, "What is this doing, get up quickly." ”
Wang Han knelt on the ground and responded: "If the master doesn't accept it, I can't afford it." "He learned this from reading martial arts novels, those who learned from teachers, and the unity is this style.
Zhou Tong was funny, he stretched out his hand to help him, so much strength, Wang Han couldn't afford it, he vacated the whole person with one hand, and he couldn't get up.
Regardless of anything else, this arm strength alone surprised Wang Han, and the iron-armed Zhou Dong really lived up to his reputation.
Zhou Tong said with a smile: "Don't do this, the gym has its own rules for accepting apprentices." After speaking, he looked Wang Han up and down, with a happy look on his face, obviously liking Wang Han.
Wang Han was puzzled and asked, "What are the rules for the gym to accept apprentices?" ”
Zhou Tong didn't answer, stretched out his hand to figure it out on him, pressed his shoulder, pinched his waist, patted his hip, and nodded his head: "It's a good embryonic bone." Then he asked, "Where is home, and what relatives are there?" What do you do for a living? ”
Wang Han understood, Zhou Tong had the heart to accept him, but he had to ask about the conditions. Since ancient times, there has been a basic element of martial arts practitioners, that is, the family is relatively wealthy, that is, the so-called poor literature and rich martial arts.
Reading is relatively cheap, just reading and writing, nothing more than preparing pen, ink, paper and inkstone. To practice martial arts, you have to prepare a lot of things, in addition to all kinds of weapons, the most important thing is that the appetite must be satisfied, dancing with knives and sticks all day long, you can't eat enough, you can't eat well, this is why Wang Han insists on eating meat.
Zhou Tong asked three questions, mainly to ask, is the family poor, can they supply martial arts?
Wang Han replied: "My family is in Tokyo, my father died early, my mother is still there, and my family does some business rentals. "This is talking nonsense with his eyes open, his poor roof is leaking, where will there be merchants renting out.
But Zhou Tong was satisfied with this answer, stroked his beard, and said: "In this case, you can bring fifty taels of silver to the boxing gym tomorrow to make a register and try it first." ”
Such an answer is ambiguous, not to say that he will be accepted as a disciple, but to give hope. Although Wang Han wondered, he was still overjoyed and thanked.
Saying goodbye to Zhou Tong, passing through the middle courtyard, and seeing Luan Tingyu instructing everyone to practice, Wang Han went over to thank him again, and said that he was about to come to the boxing gym to study, Luan Tingyu just smiled and encouraged: "It's a good thing for men to practice martial arts, but don't go to those expense places in the future." ”
After speaking, he went to teach his apprentices, and he was not very enthusiastic about Wang Han.
Wang Han understands that the two sides have met for the first time, and the age difference is large, of course, it is impossible to meet each other at first sight and bow down.
Wang Han didn't rush home when he got out of the gym, but went to the teahouse next door and asked for a peanut fennel bean drink. He didn't drink either, and there was no one at noon, so he pulled Xiao Er to chatter, and in a few words, he asked about the matter of the Royal Boxing Gym.
There are no rules for this royal boxing gym to accept apprentices, as long as you pay money, you can come, the three chairs of heaven, earth and people in it are official, and the other teachers are given by the boxing gym. After completing their studies, the three chairs will write letters to recommend to the forbidden army everywhere, some of them are lucky, they can get a head to do it, and if they are unlucky, they can also be a head of the church, they can't be rich and expensive, but a well-off life can be guaranteed.
Although the Great Song Dynasty emphasized literature and light military force, the officers and soldiers under him were not low, and the lowest salary for the head of the sect was six taels a month, not to mention those who were high-level, and they were more than ten taels at every turn, and they were left in the future generations, which was equivalent to a casual monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan.
As for the distinction between heaven, earth and man, it is naturally the most respectful of the heavenly character, the second seat of the earth, and the last of the seats, but it is not that the seats are not as good as the seats of heaven as roughly understood from the outside, but that the three have their own essences.
Zhou Tong is the heavenly seat, and the bishop has fists and feet. The ground seat is Zhang Tingfang, the bishop is immediately skilled, and the teaching field is not in the inner city, but in Happy Valley next to the forbidden army in the outer city. The seat is Sun Zhou, and the bishop archery array is the combat coordination of the military array.
If you want to fight alone on the ground, of course, Zhou Dong is the first in the world, this is indisputable. But in terms of being skillful right away, Zhou Tong may not be able to win against Zhang Tingfang. You must know that Zhang Tingfang grew up on horseback and can speak horse language, no matter how fierce the horse is, it is as smooth as a sheep in his hands. When it comes to archery arrays, Sun Zhou is naturally invincible, but it doesn't mean that Sun Zhou's fist and foot skills are poor, and those who can achieve the position of the chair will certainly not be too bad.
Why are they taught separately? It is the ancient training of martial arts, greedy and not refined. This differentiation allows disciples to better exert their strengths.
To study, first study under the introductory teacher Luan Tingyu, and when the basic skills are proficient, then go to the three chairs of heaven, earth and people to practice, and the three chairs will discuss and decide, to see that it is better to learn that martial arts.
Everyone has their own strengths, but it is decided in the womb, and this cannot be changed. For example, some people are born with excellent eyesight, that is a good seedling to learn archery, and the role of a hundred steps through Yang is naturally greater than that of melee infantry on the battlefield. Others are natural strongmen, and of course melee infantry is the best. Some are more modest and flexible, and they can play the greatest role when they get on the horse.
Such an explanation made Wang Han sigh that the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.
As for the contradiction between Shi Wengong and Zhou Tong, Xiao Er didn't dare to say it at first, and accepted Wang Han with a piece of broken silver, and then whispered: Said that Shi Wengong is a good hand, good looks, thick eyebrows and big eyes, more than eight feet tall, ape arms and bee waist, enter the Royal Boxing Gym to study, the three seats of heaven, earth and people compete to teach, he is also well-behaved, the three seats of heaven and earth and people have learned well, the three seats are very satisfied, and they are full of praise for him.
Zhou Tong once said that when he is old, only Shi Wengong can accept the Tianzi seat. This shows his love for Shi Wengong.
Since you like it? And why be angry?
This is to mention Zhou Dong's character. Zhou Dong has a straightforward and heroic personality, a typical martial temperament, advocating force against Liaoxia, and the boxing gym is well known, especially for the annual payment of [New Year's coins], Zhou Tong is the most depressed, and scolds all day long, clearly and bluntly saying that the court has raised a bunch of cowards.
At this time, Huizong ascended the throne and reused Han Zhongyan and other conservatives, who were also peacemakers, and asked for peace when they encountered border wars, which made Zhou Tong dislike and often complained in the gym. Shi Wengong was a different character, and retorted to Zhou Tong: "The national strength is weak, why should it be a war?" Why not pay a small amount of coins to enjoy peace and ease? ”
Zhou Tong was furious, "If you pay the money, you can buy peace?" What's the use of waiting for martial arts? Just a lot of coins? With 20,000 yuan of money every year, how many military horses can I support in the Great Song Dynasty? Just money, you say? ”
It is said that a few days ago, Zhou Dong bluntly said that he wanted to kill Shi Wengong with a cane, Shi Wengong respected him as a teacher, where did he dare to respond, so he hid and did not dare to see Zhou Dong.
After Xiao Er's words were finished, Wang Han slapped his thigh and sighed in his heart: This Shi Wengong is a talent.
Not to mention anything else, in terms of his dynamic grasp of world affairs, Shi Wengong is higher than Zhou Dong. Zhou Tong is just a martial artist, and Shi Wengong is a general.
The martial artist will only face the hard anus, and the general will judge the situation and seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
After listening to Xiao Er's words, Wang Han had an idea in his heart, he had the opportunity to see Shi Wengong one day, and he must use it for his own use, otherwise, he would have to clean up the portal instead of the master.
Although it was the first time he had seen Zhou Dong, Wang Han had already positioned himself as the most outstanding disciple of Zhou Dong in his heart, and he couldn't help but imagine that in the future, he would go around the forbidden army with the title of Zhou Dong, and any sect leader would bow his head when he met, what kind of majestic scene would it be?
Thinking about it, I can't help but feel beautiful in my heart and grin.
