Volume 2 Linglong Pavilion, Lore Paste Chapter 86 Two Readers
On the second day of coming to the academy, there is still no trace of the leakage of the last letter, according to Wang Qingyuan's arrangement, the public opinion of the academy is only directed to Lao Suo himself, and the students may think that they have always been overly depressed and depressed to their benevolent Lao Suo, so they jumped into the river, and they are sad, but they still respect Wang Qingyuan, the dean who sits on the high platform and is at the same level as Lao Suo.
This made the people full of righteous indignation even more depressed, fortunately, the people from the Tingwei Mansion also arrived, including some comrades in the same pioneer camp, and the students at the bottom did not know how to write letters, but the officials of the imperial court were familiar with it several times, Lao Suo's sincere words before his death, as long as it was a normal bloody man, which would not be indignant, they were ordered by their superiors to strictly check whether the upper-level bureaucratic atmosphere of the academy here was true, as for why they did not point the finger at Wang Qingyuan, it is estimated that he really has a backer, otherwise there is Qu Huang, a great god sitting in Lingping, who can't find out。
Today, Zhao Kai's plan is to contact some students who are with the fisherman Lao Suo, and it is best to pass on the disciples in person, so that they can have a deeper understanding of Lao Suo, and maybe inject a greater vitality into the case.
Zhao Kai and a few people came to this Longyao Academy, itself is the banner of learning, so what they did today is not eye-catching, originally they thought that it was a little difficult to find a student who was familiar with the fisherman Laosuo, who knew that it was a disciple of Laosuo who asked casually, and the so-called peach and plum garden was nothing more than that.
After walking around, Zhao Kai and the others did not get any really useful clues, and the ordinary students in the lower classes didn't even know that their gentle and friendly Great Sacrificial Wine had written a letter before they died, so how could they know about the hidden interests of the upper echelons of the academy, or the mutual attacks between you and me.
"Seeing that you are friendly to the Great Sacrifice Wine, maybe you can visit Liu He and Gan Qi. ”
Liu He and Gan Qi again? Everyone was puzzled, this was the third time they had heard the names of these two people, and what the predecessors said was also to teach them to visit these two people.
"Dare to ask who Liu He and Gan Qi are, and where are they studying in the academy now?" Zhao Kai asked for advice.
"These two are weirdos, one is a nerd, and the other is a scholar but only knows how to be lazy, which can be described as the two weirdos in our academy, hey, I won't say much about these, the key is that they are all personal disciples of the Great Sacrifice Wine. As for their dwellings, they are next to the thatched hut of the great sacrificial wine, in the southwest of a bamboo forest, so you go down this road, turn left, and walk a few hundred steps again, and you will come to their house, which is on the edge of the bamboo forest. ”
"Disciple!" Everyone was happy, they finally found the closest disciple to the fisherman Laosuo, Zhao Kai and they said goodbye, and accelerated their march according to the path pointed out by the benevolent brother just now, just hoping that the subsequent meeting would be worthwhile.
Everyone walked in a hurry, along the way also to see the rest of the students, but also quiet, so soon reached the edge of the bamboo forest, but only to see a few places full of verdant greenery and particularly conspicuous plain white, that is the three adjacent thatched houses, the deepest into the bamboo forest on the house also with a white cloth as the bottom of the writing of a long couplet, meaning to praise the life of Lao Suo, mourning the disciples today sad, no gongs and drums, no crying and mourning, a tombstone before the two kneeling on the rough ground in broad daylight motionless.
Zhao Kai and they came suddenly, and the two of them didn't know that someone would come to visit, so what they did at this moment must be their ordinary actions in the past two days, not an act of acting on the spot, which made a group of pioneer camp teenagers feel very good, and that sad gesture can only be precipitated to the heart, and every move will make people sad, as for the word "weird" that the student said before, it was also forgotten by everyone on the spot.
It was impossible for a large group of people to arrive here without attracting attention, and soon the two kneeling in front of the tomb got up and came forward, but their eyes and faces were quite unkind, and it was obvious that they did not want an unrelated crowd to disturb the purity of their teacher.
"I don't know what happened to the brothers?" I saw that the person who spoke first was dressed in plain clothes, with a tall posture and a delicate face, although the face was sad, but it was still difficult to hide the bookish business, this person spoke kindly, but the words revealed were the rhythm of rushing people, the key is that Zhao Kai had too many people to walk, and they were all face-to-face people, who knew if they were wandering into the bamboo forest here.
Zhao Kai knew that it was wrong when he visited, but he was helpless, they were just to investigate the case, but they couldn't delay the time, so they could only bite the bullet and replied: "Brother Tai is not strange, our group of people are here to pay tribute to the fisherman Lao Suo, Lao Suo's reputation spreads all over the dragon kiln, this time the heaven and man are separated, the listener is sad, it is difficult to hide the pain, I hope to be able to come forward to worship, if there is abruptness, I apologize in advance." ”
Listening to Zhao Kai's sincere words, and then looking at his face, it doesn't seem to be fake, these two people also put away their thoughts to drive people away, if the other party admires the moral knowledge of the teacher, and really wants to do a worship, they are also quite affectionate.
Liu He and Gan Qi led the way in front of them and didn't say much, Zhao Kai and the others followed behind, and they were also infected by this nearby plain white, and the feeling of grief and indignation surged from the chest, and they thought of the obscene sacrificial wine they met yesterday, they were angry, they knew the truth, at least part of the truth, the reputation of the fisherman Lao Suo's integrity was not false, and his death was afraid that the inside story was very deep, and now the sudden defeat is more pious.
Zhao Kai twisted a stick of incense from the stone case, inserted it in the incense burner and burned it, slowly leaned down, knelt on the ground on both knees, and bowed down with a very heavy student, full of piety. He did so willingly, and he read the letter himself several times, and each time it was full of blood and righteous indignation.
Zhao Kai used to have little contact with literati, and the environment was full of conflicting interests, and he always thought that "studying and studying, taking scientific examinations as officials, and seeking a bright future" is the essence, and after reading the letter, he knew that there was really a great Confucian with good morality and learning in the world, and how could he not be in awe, and most of the young people in the pioneer camp were bold and cheerful, and they were known as young geniuses It is rare to be embarrassed, so compared with Zhao Kai, it is not as good as admiration, but there is a lot more spirit, and they all want a good result.
Everyone bowed sincerely, Liu He and Gan Qi saw this scene, and they knew that they had misunderstood everyone before, they really admired their teacher, and the two could even feel a certain spirit from the heart of this group of young people, and even reached a resonance.
"Brothers, let's sit down and have a good time. After everyone finished paying tribute, another person who had not spoken before said, seeing that this person's posture was also upright, and he could even be called burly, but his face was less soft, and his sword eyebrows and starry eyes were quite handsome, if this person changed into other clothes, and if they didn't meet in this Dragon Kiln Academy, everyone would only mean that this handsome little brother was not a good man.
This person should be Gan Qi who is lazy in reading, this body of tendon meat looks like he doesn't want to read, then one person is the so-called nerd Liu He, right, Liu He talks well, and every step has his own reader's romance, before that person was afraid that he was not talking nonsense, Zhao Kai directly marked the person's evaluation of Lao Suo's two disciples with a red cross, and never recalled.
The hut space is not enough, so the yard and the open space come together, and the people in the pioneer camp are informal, at this time, Liu He and Gan Qi are quite embarrassed, thinking that they are not well entertained, but seeing that everyone is still talking quietly to themselves, and there is no displeasure, they also know that these people do not care, and their favor has deepened a little.
Although Zhao Kai and they wanted to tell Liu He and Gan Qi directly about the letter, but looking at their expressions, these two people were the closest to the fisherman Lao Suo, and they lived together, but they didn't know about the letter.
In the past few days, everyone has collected enough information about the fisherman Laosuo, about the famous events in his life, or some works that have been circulated in the world, everyone has already known very well, and he will not show timidity, so he and Gan Qi have not stopped talking at all.
Time passes very quickly, the light of day has risen to the top, and it is time for lunch, the academy has its own supply place, but the two people who live alone here have always made their own fire to cook, and now there is a large group of senior brothers and sisters who have just met, so they also gave up their own stoves to go to the place where they served food, after lunch, everyone returned to the bamboo forest and chatted a little about Lao Suo's writings, Liu He and Gan Qi were about to euphemistically bid farewell to everyone, so that they could continue to guard the tomb, this is Zhao Kai can't hold back after all.
"Do the two senior brothers really think that there is no hidden meaning in the matter of the Great Sacrifice Wine falling into the river?" This statement was earth-shattering, and as soon as the previous atmosphere was changed, even Peng Jiu felt that Zhao Kai was abrupt, and Liu He and Gan Qi also had the same expressions on their faces.
Liu He paused and said calmly: "The government has already determined that the teacher jumped into the river on his own. ”
Liu He's words were quite kind, but Zhao Kai knew the flaws in this statement, it was too gentle, and it was not like a student who had just died of his teacher, obviously, when it came to the truth of his teacher's death, the two of them began to distrust these brothers and sisters in front of them who had just met.
Liu He and Gan Qi exchanged glances with each other, their eyes flashed, and they noticed the strangeness of the group of people in front of them, they naturally did not think that the death of the teacher had no hidden feelings, on the contrary, they did not feel that their kind teacher would jump into the river by themselves if they were positive about learning and even life.
It's just that these words are buried in their hearts, and it is not a problem for them to take root and sprout, but both of them are smart people with their own considerations, and they dare not show their sincerity at all. This is especially true for these people in front of them who have just known each other for less than a day, otherwise if someone deliberately sends them to tempt, the two of them will not fall into their hands.
"You don't have to worry, you should be able to feel the devotion of our ancestors, and the spirit in our hearts, or the righteous indignation, all because we have read this letter. ”
After speaking, Zhao Kai took out a neatly folded paper from his arms, which was the last letter that had been copied.
