Chapter 92: The Character of the Divine Stick
The joy of righteousness? Is someone going to be a brother to me or am I going to be a brother to someone? No, who deserves to be my brother? That guy with the surname Meng? Well, he is a second-class master, and he is a big man, but he can barely be a brother with me.
Hehe, obviously very satisfied, but he didn't admit it, this is the childishness that Ma Hanshan occasionally shows.
"Mr. Lai, I'm not a casual person, and I won't casually form a righteous relationship with others." Ma Hanshan said with a smile.
"Well, it's true that you're not a casual person, but... But your heart is overjoyed. Lai Wenjin said in an affirmative tone.
"Haha... Mr. Lai is very confident. Mahanshan shrugged his shoulders and said.
"Since my debut, I haven't missed anything." Lai Wenjin is actually very conceited, and he is not modest at all in this regard.
Ma Hanshan glanced at Lai Wenjin and found that this uncle was very similar to him in some places, and his confidence was so shameless that he was shameless.
"Does Mr. Lai know who General Meng is?" Mahanshan turned on the jump mode and changed the subject.
"Don't talk about Da Song people, even the people of Donghu know who General Meng is, there are two Meng generals in the two hundred years since the founding of this dynasty, General Meng Liang has long been ancient, and now there is only one General Meng Zhong." Lai Wenjin looked at Ma Hanshan with the eyes of a fool and said.
"Oh? There is only one general surnamed Meng? Is Mr. Lai familiar with this General Meng Zhong? How can it have such a strange name? Can you tell us about him? Ma Hanshan's idea is that this product is now considered a high position, and it is not bad to marry his son, the key is to get to the bottom and see if the position of this old product is secure.
"Unfamiliar, I never like to pay special attention to a certain official, whether he is a good official or a bad official. Because, if I focus too much on someone, it will affect my analysis of divination. The art of change, a thousand transformations, must be combined with the analysis of the geographical figures, otherwise it will be a thousand miles of error. Lai Wenjin said seriously.
Ma Hanshan was a little disappointed and stopped talking, uncle, I thought that this old man knew something about Meng Laoxiang, but he just knew him.
"Lai, your name as a master of easy learning is not true." Ma Hanshan took a sip of the porridge that had just been delivered and said.
"Hehe, you don't have to provoke me... Today, I will make an exception to help you calculate one more hexagram, and ...... later. Lai Wenjin put his hands in his sleeves, his eyes half-closed, and muttered words in his mouth.
Ma Hanshan smiled and lit his camellia pipe, there was nothing more pleasant than the success of his own tricks, and although Lai Wenjin broke his mind, he still did what he wanted, which made him very satisfied.
"General Meng has been promoted." Suddenly, Lai Wenjin opened his eyes and said.
"Damn, you need to say this, the holy decree has been issued." Ma Hanshan said disdainfully.
"Oh, the decree has been given? Understood, the kid you brought back yesterday has something to do with General Meng... Think about it... Is he the son of General Meng? Lai Wenjin narrowed his eyes again, and his hand was tucked into his sleeve again.
"Yes, General Meng's youngest son." Ma Hanshan shook his head and said, "Forget it, don't forget it, I thought you were really some kind of master, in fact, Yi Shu is just like that, it can only count what happened, but it can't predict what didn't happen, alas, it's too disappointing." ”
Ma Hanshan's expression was very disappointed, in fact, he was also very disappointed in his heart, he thought that this old man was a god, but in the end, he was just a god.
He needs a godman, he doesn't need a god, and if he really wants to pretend to be a god, he does it himself better than many people.
Ma Hanshan's disappointed look stimulated Lai Wenjin, and his face was very bad.
Since his debut, he has never been treated like this, he has always been looked up to, this kid's disappointment and disdain for him made his old face red, hurtful.
"Is General Meng leaving Beijing?" Lai Wenjin said suddenly.
"Huh? Well, he was transferred to the Zhongzheng Army and stationed in Shouchun Mansion. Ma Hanshan said lazily.
"Has he left Beijing?" Lai Wenjin opened his eyes and said anxiously.
"I don't know, what's the matter?" Ma Hanshan felt that Lai Wenjin was startled, and he looked more and more like a god.
"General Meng is not conducive to the westward journey this month, and there is a disaster of blood and light." Lai Wenjin said very seriously.
"Lai, can you not be so chattering...... Ma Hanshan didn't believe what he said.
"Alas, I thought you were different, why do you think of Yi Shu this way? Forget it, since you don't believe it, let's wait for it to happen, anyway, his life is not in danger. After Lai Wenjin finished speaking, he bowed his head to eat breakfast and said no more.
Hehe, the uncle plays with the child's temper, Ma Hanshan thinks it's funny, he also deals with the breakfast on the table seriously, and he doesn't talk anymore, but he laughs in his heart, he has never seen an uncle like Lai Wenjin.
After the meal, the two walked to the inn, and when they returned to the inn, Lai Wenjin said very seriously: "Before verifying what I just said, I won't drink your wine anymore." But every day I will still give you a hexagram until the full moon, and it is your business whether you believe it or not. ”
"You mean, you still keep your promises, but prevent me from keeping my promises? You are forcibly making me lose my trust, Mr. Lai, you can't be like this. Ma Hanshan said with a serious face.
"If you don't believe what I say, I won't drink your wine. When did you believe, when did I drink your wine. "Lai Wenjin is very temperamental, others don't believe in his easy skills, so he doesn't drink other people's wine.
"Alas, I believe it, I believe it, I'll go and tell Brother Meng and let him inform his father of his thoughts." Ma Hanshan said very seriously.
"Hehe, he's not ...... in the inn." After Lai Wenjin finished speaking, he threw up his sleeves and went back to his room.
Ma Hanshan scratched his head, feeling that this uncle was really interesting, even more childish than Shen Hua.
Passing through the lobby of the inn, Mahanshan reached the backyard.
"Brother Meng... Did Brother Meng get up? "Far away Mahan Mountain is screaming.
"Young master, the young general is out." Qi Nanyue flashed out of the room and said.
"Huh? Out? When? Ma Hanshan was very surprised, did Lai Wenjin see Meng Lianghui go out, or did he go out?
"When did you go out?" Ma Hanshan said.
"Got out the back door a quarter of an hour ago." Qi Nanyue paused for a moment and said, "He left a message for the young master, saying that he was going to deal with some things, and he would have to drink with the young master when he came back at night." ”
"Damn, I'm still drinking, if I don't drink with him, how can anyone drink like that, it's just dead." Ma Hanshan waved his hand and said.
went out of the back door a moment ago, that is to say, Lai Wenjin didn't see it, and no one told him that he calculated it, this uncle is really not a magic stick? Is it really that amazing to learn?
"Hehe, I think the young master should drink with him. It can be seen that he has a very good impression of the young master, and the young master should be closer to him. Qi Nanyue said very seriously.
"Cut, he's not a woman, who is close to him... If you don't go to play today, there is nothing fun in Ezhou, take a day off, and rent a boat to Lin'an tomorrow. Ma Hanshan waved his hand and entered his room.
It's not that Ezhou is not fun, but Ma Dazhai is mainly waiting for his "happy event" to appear.
Although Ma Hanshan said that he did not trust Wen Jin, Lai Wenjin still took it to heart when he said that General Meng was suffering from the bloody disaster. Therefore, he must first verify the joy of righteousness that Lai Wenjin said.
He will lie in the inn today to see if someone has come to settle a righteous relationship with him, if someone really has a righteous alliance with him, which proves that Lai Wenjin's divination is really somewhat accurate, then General Meng's matter must be taken seriously.
Regardless of whether it has this relationship with Fan De, Meng Zhong, as the powerful military attache of the main battle faction, Ma Hanshan feels the need to remind.
Ma Hanshan didn't go out to play, Zhang San and Li Si could go out to play crazy, and even Shen Hua went out to play.
Of course Qi Nanyue will not go out, he has to stay in the inn to protect Ma Hanshan, in his mind, Ma Hanshan is not his student now, but his relatives, the relatives of everyone in the village, he must ensure the safety of everyone's relatives.
Lai Wenjin sulked in the room for a while and went out, people like him would only be quiet during retreat, and they couldn't be quiet at other times.
In fact, most people in Lai Wenjin mistook him, and they all thought that he was a master of Yixue, and some people in later generations even said that he was a person who engaged in feudal superstition.
The real Lai Wenjin is not just an easy-to-learn game, divination, just a pastime in his spare time, and he regards this as a kind of proof. He was most fascinated by the art of war, astronomy and geography, and he studied all the military works of his predecessors such as Sun Sun Bin Zhuge Liang and so on. He is also very obsessed with astronomy and geography, in Dasong, he drew the most detailed map of the sea area of Dasong, the most islands, on his sea area map, there are nearly 3,000 large and small islands, almost half of the number of islands in the sea area defined by the previous country of Mahan Mountain.
In the era of using the so-called measuring ruler as navigation, he actually explored 3,000 islands in the sea area, which has to be admired, and if Ma Hanshan knew, he would definitely admire Lai Wenjin to the ground. You must know that the so-called measuring ruler is actually a ruler for measuring the shadow of the sun. In the vast sea, just looking at the position of the sun and stars, and then calculating one's course in combination with the shadow of the sun, how difficult it is, is awe-inspiring to think about.
[Note: The calculation of the course of the measuring ruler and the position of the sun, moon and stars is the original version of the "star pulling technique" used by Zheng He in the ocean, and it took many hundred years before there was a quadrant and an ocant, and a sextant that was used for a long time]
History books, no matter how impartial people compile, cannot completely record all people and events, so later generations only know that Lai Wenjin is a god who plays the Book of Changes, but they do not know that he is a military strategist, astronomer, navigator, and geographer. Perhaps, it is because he was mixed with Mahanshan that it has not been recorded by historians.
At noon, Meng Lianghui didn't come back, Lai Wenjin didn't come back, Zhang San, Li Si and Shen Hua didn't see anyone, Ma Hanshan scolded a few words, and after lunch, he played chess with Qi Nanyue in the courtyard.
"Mr. Qi, Lao Lai said that I have the joy of righteousness today, do you believe it?" Ma Hanshan said as he fiddled with the chess pieces.
"Believe, if Mr. Lai says yes, there will definitely be ......." Qi Nanyue actually trusted Wen Jin.
"I think he's a ......." Ma Hanshan didn't think so, it's past noon, and there is no ghost, so it is difficult for you Qi Nanyue to bow to me, .......
