Chapter 49: Wen Dou Xu Chengye
Xiayi County, Xufu.
Although it is a family in the middle of the road, it has been demoted from a famous family to a large family, but it can't stand the fact that there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkey can naturally be called the king, and the Xu family is still the top family in Xiayi County.
Moreover, the mansion built by the Xu family when they maintained the famous family, the two stone lions at the door alone, and the tall and bright vermilion lacquer gate, were enough to dwarf those who had just been promoted to a large family.
The atmosphere in the house was a little dignified, the head of the house Xu Sheng's face was not very good-looking, Xu Chengzhi, who looked sickly, was sitting on the recliner, and Xu Chengye was standing next to him with low eyebrows.
"What the hell is going on?" Xu Sheng asked in a deep voice.
Xu Chengzhi shook his head, saying that he didn't know.
Xu Chengye raised his head and said, "Father, I am doing this to save the face of our Xu family, and at the same time, I can avenge my younger brother and make the kid surnamed Qin pay the price." ”
Xu Sheng was furious, and said angrily: "Have you made enough trouble? Cheng Zhi is not more troublesome, it is forgivable to make mistakes, you have reached the age of crowning, how can you be so ignorant! Before, our Xu family became the laughing stock of the county, and it is right for you to avenge your brother, but why do you want to do it to the world?"
Now, everyone is saying that the children of the Xu family are bullying others and challenging new children as pre-trial talents, in order to bully the small.
Xu Chengye didn't think there was anything wrong with this, and said: "When his son defeats Qin Mo, the winner is the king and the loser is the thief, who dares to say that our Xu family is not." As for bullying the small with the big, it is a thing that does not exist at all, I have already offered conditions that are favorable to Qin Mo, and he has agreed, so there is no need to be afraid of others chewing on the root of his tongue. ”
"What do you know!" Xu Sheng glared at his eldest son.
As the head of the family, Xu Sheng is responsible for the Zhongxing family business, but his qualifications are limited, although he became a scribe at a young age, he finally failed to pass the Xiucai examination, and can only pin his hopes on his two sons.
The two sons are still very competitive, the eldest Xu Chengye awakened at the age of fourteen, became a child at the age of seventeen in the county examination, passed the government examination at the age of eighteen, and then obtained the pre-test Xiucai Wen, which means that he can become a Xiucai at the age of nineteen, and has caught up with the ancestors of the Xu family.
The second Xu Chengzhi was born smart, he was also awakened at the age of fourteen, and at the age of sixteen, he entered the county Wendao College with the second place, and many people believe that his future results will definitely be above his brother Xu Chengye.
The two sons are the best in the county academy, and Xu Sheng feels that his face is bright.
But less than a month after the second son entered school, because he was jealous of his classmates, he secretly joined forces with the head of the dormitory to harm others, and finally ended up with the tragic result of the collapse of the literary palace and the expulsion from the academy.
Xu Sheng was unconvinced, he had wanted to take revenge on Qin Mo more than once, but when he heard about the relationship between Qin Mo and Gu Meng, He Chang and the county lord Xu Hao, he had to temporarily retreat and temporarily decided to swallow his anger.
Because Yan Ming was also expelled from the academy, the Xu family also lost a lot of silver.
The second son was abolished, he could only pin his hopes on the eldest son, but he didn't expect the eldest son to provoke Qin Mo too, you should put all your energy on the college exam in three months, and it is the most practical to get the academic position first.
Xu Chengye didn't understand his father's hard work, and said: "Anyway, the matter has been done to the world, so you won't let your son be a turtle with a shrunken head, right?"
Xu Shengyu said with displeasure: "Forget about this matter, you are not allowed to do anything privately in the future, go back to your room and rest." ”
......
In the grass house of Tingquan, there are four pairs of characters hanging on the wall, all of which are written by Gu Meng, which are two two-character [ligatures into soldiers], and one pair of three characters and four characters.
For the reason of being greedy and chewing more, he refused to write the fifth pair for Qin Mo.
In fact, in the afternoon of the same day, Qin Mo had already mastered the writing of these four pairs of characters, and tried to use the seal style, which was also successful.
Xu Chengye's challenge to Qin Mo not only spread in the county, but also everyone in the Wendao Academy.
In the blink of an eye, at noon on the third day, the students finished their morning work and did not go to the dining room to eat as usual, but went to the direction of the college gate in groups of three or five, and after a while, hundreds of people gathered.
Among them, there are also many people wearing white background Mo Lan Xiucai clothes, and they also come to join in the fun.
Xu Chengye appeared surrounded by several classmates, he looked around, found no trace of Qin Mo, and said in a contemptuous tone: "That kid won't be afraid, so he doesn't dare to come over to fight." ”
"Will a shuangjia child choose to be a shrunken turtle?" said a fox friend in a deliberately loud voice.
The other person sang a double reed with him and said: "What's wrong with Shuangjia Tongsheng, we are a few pre-test talents, even if we only use the lowest-level musical instruments, we can easily win, knowing that it is a sure defeat, of course Qin Mo does not dare to fight." ”
"It's a shameless thing to miss an appointment, then he can't be called Qin Shuangjia in the future!" a guy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks sneered.
Several people asked in unison, "What should I call him?"
The sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked guy pulled his throat and said, "Qin tortoise shell!"
"Hahaha!"
Xu Chengye took the lead and laughed, and the people in the new children's class of the Calligraphy Branch were all full of anger, they didn't believe that Qin Mo would miss the appointment.
At this moment, a voice with a strong sense of sarcasm sounded: "People from big families are different, and they don't know how to be quiet when they talk about people behind their backs, they are really uneducated." ”
"Who dares to be sarcastic about this son?" Xu Chengye turned his head angrily, and what he saw was Qin Mo.
Qin Mo carried the bag containing the four treasures of the study, and walked over with a calm face, and everyone consciously made a way for him.
Xu Chengye gritted his teeth angrily, but he couldn't find a rebuttal, so he could only stare at Qin Mo with his eyes.
Qin Mo ignored his gaze, walked to the center of the crowd by himself, hugged his fists at everyone, and said, "Thanks to the love of all your classmates, come to watch the battle, I don't know which senior is willing to serve as a referee?"
A showman stepped forward and said loudly: "I am not talented, I am willing to act as a referee." ”
"Thank you, senior. Qin Mo thanked him.
After a while, Xu Chengye and Qin Mo stood ten zhang apart, and their classmates from their own children's class brought the bookcase, Qin Mo took out the four treasures of the study and placed them, and then poured water into the inkstone to grind the ink.
Xu Chengye held a bamboo flute in his hand, one foot three inches long, simple and unpretentious, and it was the most ordinary flute treasure, which could meet the needs of qin scribes.
In the piano lane, the flute is the third most popular instrument.
Looking at Qin Mo's side again, there are two brushes next to the inkstone, which are the Zizhu Spring and Autumn Pen and the Sanhao Qiankun Pen.
Xu Chengye stretched his brows, the corners of his mouth involuntarily rose slightly, he thought that Qin Mo would borrow some brushes, but he didn't expect that the two were ordinary goods, so there was nothing to worry about.
Taking advantage of Qin Mo's grinding of ink, Xu Chengye spoke: "As the party facing the war, you will first propose a gentleman's agreement. ”
Qin Mo didn't raise his head and said, "No duplicate content is allowed." ”
This agreement forbids the writing of duplicate words when it is for the scribes of the way, and forbids the same tune for the scribes of the qin.
Xu Chengye smiled, with an arrogant expression on his face, and said, "My request is that you are not allowed to use Shuangwen Dao. ”
As soon as this remark came out, all the people in the children's class were angry, Qin Mo was just a new child, and he had already made concessions in the choice of brushes, and all he could rely on was books and chess, Xu Chengye actually made such a request, which was definitely a bully.
Qin Mo was very calm, without any change in expression on his face, and calmly put down the ink strip and ended the ink grinding process.
Xiucai, who served as the referee, frowned slightly, and seeing that Qin Mo did not object, he said: "The gentleman's agreement will take effect immediately, and the competition will start now!"
Qin Mo stretched out his hand to pick up the three-milli Qiankun pen, and the literary power passed through his fingertips, forming a dazzling light on the barrel and tip of the pen.
Xu Chengye held the bamboo flute in both hands, which also exuded dazzling light.
On the small earthen bag in the distance, Gu Meng stood on it, looking at this side with burning eyes.
A voice sounded behind him, "Dr. Gu, are you here too?"
Gu Meng turned around, it was He Chang.
He Chang smiled and said, "To be honest, I'm a little worried, do you think Ziyi can win?"
Gu Meng said with confidence: "He will definitely win." ”
The source of confidence is very simple, the day before yesterday when he taught [Ligature] to become a soldier, Qin Mo showed an ability that impressed him.
He Chang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Since you have faith, why do you come here to watch?"
Gu Meng rolled his eyes and snorted: "Watching the battle is an important process of learning, although Ziyi is a child, he can inspire the county lord and obtain the pre-test Hanlin degree, I'm just a pre-test tribute, isn't it normal to come to watch the battle?"
"Heroes see the same thing. He Chang said with a smile.
For his cheeky behavior, Gu Meng expressed 10,000 lofty contempt, if he hadn't been Xuezheng, he would have slapped him a long time ago, Gu Meng turned his head to the scene of the fight, too lazy to pay attention to him.
Qin Mo did not put pen to paper, but stared at Xu Chengye.
His behavior makes everyone incomprehensible, as a low-level party, whether he chooses to attack or chooses to defend, he should be one step ahead, and if he is preempted by the other party, his situation will be very disadvantageous.
Xu Chengye frowned slightly, he also felt strange, but he still blew out the notes very calmly.
When the second note came out, He Chang and Gu Meng said in unison: ""Storm Song". ”
After the third note came out, several people watching the show made the same judgment, Qin Mo had a bottom in his heart, and the pen fell on the paper.
A showman shook his head and said, "It's late!"
A few children next to him were confused, the fight had just begun, why was it too late?
Xiucai explained aloud: "This is the third measure of the first song of "Storm Song", most piano and Taoist children can achieve the point of eight tones of waves, Xu Chengye is a pre-test showman, should be able to achieve six tones of waves. ”
The so-called eight tones refer to the eighth syllable, and the waves refer to the sound of the waves, which are accompanied by the sound to form semi-physical waves that rush in the direction of the opponent.
As more syllables appear, the waves turn into raging waves, overwhelming the sky with thunderous momentum.
The reason why he judged that Qin Mo would be defeated was because when the calligraphers and scribes fought against the "Song of the Waves", the most effective way was to use the four characters of "overwhelming mountains and seas" in [Ligatures into Soldiers], it was obvious that Qin Mo was late in writing, and there was not much time left, which was not enough to write four words.
Moreover, Qin Moqi's strokes have nothing to do with these four words, obviously he doesn't know how to crack it, how can he be undefeated.
