3. Talented and beautiful women, chess opponents
Ling Suer seemed to have found an outlet for catharsis, and called out to hit the sky, and said: "If it wasn't for that hard and begging at the beginning, how could I have accepted his layman nephew? Now this kid is saying that he wants to support orthodoxy, shouting that what kind of cultivation is useless to the people and useless to the court, and he also persuaded me to sell my skills to the emperor Lao'er, and fight for a wife!"
"Tell me, what is the matter? The emperor is also worthy of me to order Sur to give him his life?"
Wang Chong was serving his master at this time, and he couldn't help but sneer, only then did he know that his master was actually rejected by his senior brother again.
Ling Su'er looked unkind, reached out and pressed his nostrils, puffed out a white smoke, knocked Wang Chong's skull, and shouted: "What are you kidding about, this kid? From tomorrow, you go to Duhua your senior brother, if you can't get him into the door, I won't accept you." ”
Where did Wang Chong expect such a catastrophe to fall from heaven?
He explained with a bitter face: "The apprentice is not laughing, but he can't imagine that the senior brother is stupid and stupid when he reads and reads, and he considers himself a saint, but he doesn't think about how much strength he has. ”
Ling Suer suddenly remembered that the Xuanhe Daoist had said that Tang Jingyu was also a young scholar, and asked, "I heard that you were also a prodigy back then?"
Young Master Tang Jingyu, who was borrowed by Wang Chong, was born in a family of eunuchs, and indeed had the name of a prodigy, so he immediately responded: "The apprentice did have some talents and fame back then, if it wasn't for the middle of the family, now I am afraid that he will also have fame." ”
Su Er asked curiously, "Why don't you want to go to the emperor's life?"
Wang Chong said with a gloomy face: "My father died, and the apprentice was almost killed by his stepmother, but the court etiquette is there, even if I read the great fame, I must be respectful to my stepmother, and even ask for a seal for her." Isn't it true that the more you read, the more aggrieved you become, and the more you take the exam, the more boring you become?"
The beggar king made Sur know that he was speechless, he really didn't know that this apprentice had a miserable background, and he was almost killed by his stepmother.
Seeing that the two masters and apprentices were angry together, the host master smiled slightly, and said: "Since you can't succeed, let Ling Apprentice go and talk about Ling Apprentice, ......it's not a bad story! Which of these two disciples is the seed of cultivation and the good talent of reading? ”
Ling Suer was just talking angrily just now, but now that he thought about it, it would be a wonderful way to let Wang Chong go to his own eldest apprentice.
He stroked his palm lightly, smiled slightly, and called out twice: "Wonderful! wonderful! How could I come up with such a wonderful method?"
The beggar king Ling Sur said to Wang Chong arrogantly: "I will give you three months, and after three months, I will come back to check." If you can't cross your brother, I will punish you to be a little monk here for a year. I still have some things that I can't stay for long, so I'll leave this matter to you. ”
Wang Chong had dozens of green oxen running wildly in his heart, how could he have expected this master to be so unreliable? He was about to "argue with reason" when he saw Ling Suer's sleeve robe wave, and the room was clear, and he actually left.
Wang Chong was stunned for a long time, not knowing what to say.
Or the host master smiled: "Your master has always been like this, reckless, not like a cultivator, but more like the old monk in his early years." Since your master is gone, you can live in the small temple for the time being, and if there is anything you can tell the old monk. ”
Wang Chong bowed and thanked the host master, and the old monk accepted the chessboard pieces with a smile and walked away.
Wang Chong stayed in the meditation room alone, and until now, he still didn't believe that his master was really gone, and entrusted the matter of Senior Brother Duhua to himself.
"Master, you haven't told me yet, who is my senior brother?"
Since this senior brother is a talented man who is famous all over the world, he naturally has a great reputation, and as long as he inquires a little, it should not be difficult to know who he is. If it is not good, you can also ask the host master, he is good friends with the master, and he must know the origin of my senior brother's identity. ”
Wang Chong stretched out his hand to support his forehead, thought about it for a while, and simply fell asleep.
Following!
Wang Chong got up to wash up, went to ask the host master, sure enough, his master never came back, and then asked about his senior brother, but he didn't expect the master to say "I don't know", I only heard that this Junyan is one of the eight shows in Yangzhou.
Wang Chong could only accept his fate, had breakfast in the temple, and set off to go straight to Yangzhou City.
The temple where their master and apprentice temporarily lived went to the city, twenty or thirty miles, and with Wang Chong's footsteps, they saw the city gate in one or two hours.
Yangzhou Mansion is the richest place in the world.
Wang Chong's Tianxin concept of learning Taoism when he was young was in the bitter cold land of the northwest, even if a litter of demon monks went out to plunder all day long, he didn't see anything good.
As soon as he entered Yangzhou City, Wang Chong felt extraordinary.
This famous city has the world-famous Zen ancestral garden, the slender West Lake, the cultural inheritance, the long history, the scenic spots are numerous, and there is also the reputation of "Huaizuo Famous Capital, Zhuxi Good Place".
Yangzhou merchants are prosperous, lively places, people are fascinated, but Yangzhou is the most famous, but it is the world's most prosperous fireworks willow lane, the world's famous prostitutes, half of Thailand from here.
Wang Chong's waist is far more than 100,000 yuan, there are thousands of taels of silver, and the silver ticket is about 70,000 or 80,000 taels, not to mention gold ingots, as well as countless pearl antiques.
If he wants to splurge it, he will enjoy a few years of happy time, and he may not be able to spend all the money in his pocket.
It's a pity that Wang Chong knows that if he is "lascivious" in this kind of place for a few months, he is afraid that the master will not be able to come back. It's better that he can't even come back, so if Su Er knows that he is such a bastard, he is afraid that he will have to clean up the portal, and he will cut the account with a sword.
Wang Chong inquired in the city and was immediately a little confused.
Now there are eight of the most famous talents in Yangzhou, known as Yangzhou Baxiu, all of whom are young and unruly.
There is a lot of debate about which one is more famous and talented, but none of them prefer to be a monk.
Wang Chong has little understanding of this "senior brother" in his mind, and has no way to judge which of these eight talented men is his "real senior brother".
"It's terrible. Even if I cast a net all over the sky and crossed these eight talents together, I still have to be willing to accept them. ”
He was distressed for a while, and then secretly wondered: "How can there be so many talented people in Yangzhou? ”
Wang Chong walked around Yangzhou City for a while, seeing this famous and prosperous place in the world, he was also quite moved, and he didn't want to go back so early, thinking: "Anyway, Master gave March time, and it's not bad for this day, so it's easy to come to Yangzhou, it's better to play around!"
He believed in the reins of the horse, and walked all the way, but did not pick a place to go, but only a lively place.
