"Wahahaha …" He laughed three times and sorted out his thoughts. After hearing this sentence, he already knew who this girl was. He didn't know if he was lucky or unlucky to meet her outside the temple. He laughed a few times and said, "Miss, we don't know each other. It's not appropriate to say this. I can't say it. You should find someone else. I still have urgent matters to attend to and can't stay for long. Goodbye. "
After saying this, he turned around and wiped his cold sweat. He hurriedly walked out, unwilling to stay for another second.
Miss Xu sighed and said, "There's no difference if I say it or not. I didn't want to do something so boring. I just didn't expect that the person who talked to me so frivolously was someone from the Xiao Family of Jin Ling. I'm really disappointed. "
[This time, I've smeared the name of the Xiao Family. This is really f * cking evil.] He stopped and turned around to look at Miss Xu. He laughed and said, "Do you really want to say it? Fine. I'll catch up with you and then dump you. That's my goal! "
Master Ye's expression changed. He shouted, "How dare you! You're so rude. How dare you blaspheme Miss Xu. You deserve to die."
Lin Wanrong spread out his hands and innocently said, "Young master, you heard it. I didn't want to say it. Miss Xu asked me to repeat it. I just did. What did I do wrong? "
Master Ye didn't say anything. Miss Xu smiled and said, "You're quick-witted. That's not bad! May I ask this Third Young Master, is Miss Xiao also in the capital? I was taken care of by Lady Xiao when I was young. I also heard my father mention the Grand Mistress, but I haven't had the chance to meet her. If she's in the capital, I'd like to meet her. "She pointed out the third young master. That meant she was the woman who took shelter from the rain at the Reclining Buddha Temple.
Since it had come to this, Lin Wanrong didn't need to be afraid. He nodded and said, "Thank you for your concern, Miss Xu. My two misses have already arrived in the capital. I'll definitely convey Miss Xu's thoughts. But I don't know who your father is … "
"My father is just an ordinary scholar. There's no need to mention him." Miss Xu said indifferently, "Speaking of which, when Lady Xiao left the capital, I was still an ignorant child. I didn't expect that twenty years had passed in the blink of an eye. I wonder if she is still well?"
Old people? Such a young and beautiful Lady Xiao was actually called an old lady by this Miss Xu. She really deserved a beating. Lin Wanrong glanced at Miss Xu.
Previously, he had only paid attention to Miss Xu's appearance. Now, he was paying attention to her attire. She was dressed in light blue clothes that were extremely fitting. Her figure was graceful and her expression was calm. Her hair was coiled up high and was casually tied up with a jade hairpin. She looked simple and elegant.
Was Miss Xu already married? Lin Wanrong was stunned for a moment. He remembered that when he asked her outside the temple yesterday if she was married, she did not say anything. Today, seeing this hairstyle, he was even more puzzled. However, this woman was natural and unrestrained. From what she said, she seemed to be over twenty years old. It was not strange that she was married.
The only thing that was puzzling was that this young master Ye was always around a married woman. Was he not afraid of gossip? From Miss Xu's words and actions yesterday, she still valued her reputation. "I'll catch up to you and then dump you." Thinking of yesterday's bold words, Lin Wanrong shook his head helplessly. It was a bad start!
"Madam is as beautiful as before. She is also very happy. Thank you for your concern." Lin Wanrong suppressed the doubts in his heart and replied.
Miss Xu nodded and walked a few steps forward with young master Ye. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she turned around and asked, "Third young master, since you are a member of the Xiao Family. Then on the fifteenth day of the first month, could it be that you were the one who looked at the lanterns and guessed riddles in the 'Cloud Paradise'? "
"Looking at lanterns and guessing riddles? Oh, you're talking about him. His surname is Lin. He's handsome and talented. He's ten times more handsome than this young master Ye! "Lin Wanrong said with a smile.
Miss Xu smiled and said, "Those lantern riddles of mine were very simple. I originally wanted to let everyone in the academy guess them, and also appease their complaints. I did not expect that the Xiao family would be the first to come out on top. This is rather surprising."
Simple? Are you purposely trying to anger me? What was the background of this girl with the surname Xu? She had an improved chain of bamboo in her hands, was familiar with Luo Ning, and even knew Lady Xiao. What exactly did she do?
Young master Ye said with a smile, "When you wrote those riddles, I was also there. I was still wondering why the riddles this year were so simple. I didn't expect that it was to take care of the brothers and sisters in the academy. Miss's thoughts are exquisite. I admit that I am inferior. "
Speechless! These two people are working together to attack me. Miss Xu continued to move forward. When she passed by Lin Wanrong, she suddenly said lightly, "Third young master, it's good to be confident, but don't be too frivolous. Words and actions like yesterday, I hope that I will never hear them again!" She walked briskly and floated past him.
Lin Wanrong was stunned for a moment. He suddenly asked with a smile, "Miss Xu, may I ask if you're married?"
Miss Xu didn't seem to hear his words. She had already walked into the door. Young master Ye suddenly turned his head and said, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
Lin Wanrong laughed a few times. He loudly said to Miss Xu's back, "Miss Xu, what I said yesterday is still valid."
Miss Xu's footsteps stopped. She helplessly shook her head and sighed, "There's nothing in the world. It's just people who worry about nothing!"
She didn't care about the crazy words of this third young master. She was about to enter the classroom when she saw a sixteen or seventeen year old boy rushing out and saying, "Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu, it's not good. There's a natural phenomenon!"
"Master Cheng, what's wrong? What natural phenomenon? "Miss Xu asked in surprise.
"Mr. Xu, look — —" Master Cheng led Miss Xu and Young master Ye to the courtyard. They saw countless ants crowded together, forming a big "Tian" character on the ground. Although these ants were constantly crawling, they were all moving along the "Tian" character. Master Cheng's eyes turned and he said, "Ants in a group, a natural phenomenon! Mr. Xu, how do you explain this? "
After Master Cheng, the students who were studying algebra had already rushed out. They looked at the situation of the ants in front of them and clicked their tongues in wonder.
Lin Wanrong was about to leave, but when he heard the shouts in the courtyard, he couldn't help but turn back. He carefully observed the route of the ants and then looked at Master Cheng's sneaky behavior. Lin Wanrong couldn't help but laugh. This kid, he had a way!
Young master Ye looked at the situation in front of him and frowned, "Why are these ants gathering on their own? Could it be a natural phenomenon?"
Miss Xu shook her head and said, "There is no rootless water in the world. Everything has a reason. There must be a special reason for these ants to gather. Instead of saying it's a natural phenomenon, it's better to carefully investigate it. "
Miss Xu pulled her long skirt and slowly squatted down. She carefully observed the movement of the ants with a focused and beautiful expression on her face.
Lin Wanrong was secretly amazed. It was really amazing for a weak girl to have such knowledge and ability.
Miss Xu observed for a while, then stretched out her slender fingers, wrapped a jade handkerchief, and stroked the ground a few times. A few ants climbed up along her handkerchief. Her body trembled slightly, and her face showed a bit of nervousness. Women were naturally afraid of mice and ants, but this couldn't be blamed on her. She gritted her teeth, and a touch of red appeared on her face. She carefully avoided the ants and continued to wipe the ground with the handkerchief.
After wiping a few times, a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on her face. She put away the handkerchief and said with a smile, "Today, which student brought honey?"
A student said, "I saw Master Cheng bring honey, but I don't know what he wants to do."
Miss Xu smiled and said to Master Cheng, "Let me have a look at the honey."
Master Cheng smiled embarrassedly and took out a small sealed jar. Miss Xu wrapped a piece of wooden stick with the handkerchief just now, dipped it in some honey, and then wrote the word "Heaven" on the ground! It was strange to say that in a moment, the new word written by Miss Xu was also black, and the strange sign appeared again.
Everyone was surprised. Miss Xu nodded and said with a smile, "Master Cheng, this must be a good thing you did, right?"
Master Cheng lowered his head and said with an embarrassed smile, "Mr. Xu, you said that we should carefully observe the things around us and share new discoveries with everyone. Last time you taught the example of the seed germination and overturning the boulder, I also personally verified it. It turns out that it can really be done. "
Miss Xu smiled slightly and said, "I also heard the story of the seed germination. In Hangzhou, the White Lotus Sect once used this trick to deceive the people. Later, it was exposed by a strange person, and the people were saved from disaster. Everything in the world has its own physics. As long as we observe and ponder carefully, we can always find the rules. Just like this time, if it wasn't for Master Cheng's careful observation, we wouldn't have been able to learn this. Therefore, the theory of all things and the method of calculation are not useless. On the contrary, it is closely related to us, just like poetry. They are the treasures of our China, and none of them can be missing. "
The students of Mathematics came here because they were really interested. After listening to Miss Xu's words, they immediately cheered. Lin Wanrong hid behind the crowd and looked at the excited little face of the Second Miss in the crowd. He suddenly felt a faint touch in his heart. That day when they were watching the lantern riddles, he had already seen Miss Xu's remarkable talent. Today, he saw an even more extraordinary side of her. Not to mention anything else, just based on what she said, this Miss Xu deserved the title of "extraordinary woman".
Miss Xu waited for everyone to quiet down, and then said with a smile, "Master Cheng's action today let us learn new knowledge, but it also delayed the teaching time for everyone, so I have to punish you a little. Master Cheng, don't you like the Abacus Technique very much? "
Master Cheng nodded and said, "Mr. Xu, do you want me to learn it?"
Miss Xu smiled and said, "Not only do I want you to learn it, but I also want you to sum up some simple and easy to remember mnemonics, so that everyone can learn it together. You are observant and have a broad mind. I believe you can do it. "
There was a flash of gratitude in the eyes of the young man called Master Cheng. He said loudly, "Mr. Xu, thank you for believing in me."
Miss Xu smiled and nodded. Seeing that there was a beautiful young woman among the students, she suddenly said in surprise, "Are you the Second Miss of the Xiao Family?"
Yushuang said shyly, "Mr. Xu, I am Xiao Yushuang."
Miss Xu took her hand happily and said, "Good sister, you are finally here. Let's go in and have a chat."
The students of Mathematics went into the room happily. Only Master Cheng was still thinking hard. Lin Wanrong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Little brother, what are you thinking about?"
Master Cheng was taken aback. He looked up and saw a stranger. He suddenly felt strange and asked, "Who are you? Do I know you? "
Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "You don't know me, but you will remember me. I have a few strange words that I don't understand. Can you explain them to me? "
Master Cheng was puzzled. He heard the stranger in front of him say, "Five goes to four, two down five goes to three … Eight back one returns five goes to three, nine back one returns five goes to four! How about it, do you remember it? "
Master Cheng was stunned at first, but then he immediately understood something. His voice trembled with surprise and said, "This, this is the Abacus Technique? No, no. Nine goes to one returns one, how can it be ten? "
Lin Wanrong shook his head and said, "I don't know what it is. I will read it again. Remember it and study it carefully when you go back. Maybe you can complete the task that Miss Xu gave you! "
Master Cheng didn't dare to say anything. He listened to Lin Wanrong read it again. He didn't dare to miss a word. Lin Wanrong smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "Little Cheng, do it well. You will have a bright future."
Seeing that Master Cheng was still reading the Abacus Technique in a daze, Lin Wanrong didn't care about him anymore. He wiped his sweat and walked out of the courtyard. Memorizing the Abacus Technique was something that happened in elementary school. Now there were a few sentences that he had forgotten. But with Master Cheng's intelligence, it wasn't difficult for him to deduce a few sentences.
Anyway, he did a good deed today. He was happy and hummed a song as he walked out of Jinghua Academy. He saw two people coming from afar. They knew each other.
The two people were also stunned when they saw him. One of them rushed forward like a whirlwind. He said happily, "General Lin, General Lin. You are finally here. "
Lin Wanrong was surprised. He patted his shoulder and said, "Xu Zhen, why are you here? Oh, Young Master Li Wuling, we meet again. " It turned out that the person walking with Xu Zhen was the boy named Li Wuling who was fishing for lanterns by the river on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Li Wuling asked curiously, "Lin San, why are you here? Did someone bully you? Why did you come here to find me? Why didn't you tell them my name? "
Lin Wanrong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Xu Zhen said excitedly, "General Lin, it's not just me. Sage Li, Brother Du, and Brother Hu are all here. It was General Xu who recommended us to come here to study."
Study? Then he remembered that Jinghua Academy had a military theory course. Xu Wei sent these people here to study. It seemed that he valued them.
These are all my soldiers. He felt a burst of pride in his heart. He smiled and looked at Xu Zhen up and down. "Not bad, not bad. You have grown taller and stronger. It seems that you will have a part in killing the barbarians on the battlefield this year. "
Xu Zhen puffed out his chest and said, "Of course. I, Xu Zhen, will die on the battlefield even if I die. General Lin, Brother Hu, we have been waiting for you to come every day. In a month or so, we will be going to kill the barbarians. With your leadership, we will all have a backbone and we will be able to fight comfortably. "
Damn, this kid only knows how to say things that move me. Thinking of his time in the army, Lin Wanrong's heart was filled with nostalgia. Fighting the White Lotus Sect was an internal battle. No matter how well they fought, there was nothing to be proud of. Killing the barbarians was the duty of a soldier. But to fight the barbarians on the battlefield, was this something that Lin San would do? Moreover, Qing Xuan was here! He felt extremely conflicted.
Xu Zhen did not know what he was feeling. He pulled Li Wuling and said, "Wuling, this is the person I told you about. In the campaign to exterminate the White Lotus Sect, he led the right army to sweep everything before him, Grand General Lin."
Listening to the conversation between the two of them, Li Wuling also understood a little bit. When he heard Xu Zhen's introduction, he looked him up and down, sizing him up and down, and said in disbelief, "You are Lin San, the General Lin who has achieved great merit?"
Lin Wanrong chuckled and said, "I don't look like it, do I? Actually, this is my true nature. I have always been very low-key. "
Li Wuling clapped his hands and said, "Very good, very good. You are the victorious general, everyone praises you. Today I will compete with you on horseback. Let's see who is better, me or you! Let's go, let's go … "
He was a little mischievous. He pulled Lin Wanrong and was about to move forward. Lin Wanrong was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Why did this little demon always want to compete with others? Last time he said he wanted to find his grandfather, but this time he wanted to find him? Competing with this child, if he won, it would be said that he was bullying the young. If he lost, it would definitely be said that he couldn't even beat a child.
Lin Wanrong looked at Xu Zhen. Xu Zhen smiled bitterly and shook his head. Obviously, he also had no way to deal with Li Wuling. Lin Wanrong said helplessly, "Young Master Li, this, I am not good at flowery but impractical moves. What I want is a real sword and real spear. Even if I am injured by your blade, I have no complaints. Pei pei, what do you mean by injured by your blade? It's the other way around. If you are injured by my blade, don't complain. "
Which family did this Li Wuling come from? Why did he like to fight so much? He said to Xu Zhen, "Which family's young master is this?"
Xu Zhen's expression was solemn. "This little brother Li Wuling is the only grandson of the current dynasty's Old General Li Tai."
"Li Tai? Who is Li Tai? "Lin Wanrong said softly.
When these words came out, not only did Xu Zhen's eyes widen, even Li Wuling who had been pestering him stopped making trouble. The two looked at him together, their faces filled with disbelief.
Xu Zhen swallowed his saliva and said, "General Lin, it can't be. You actually haven't heard of Old General Li Tai's fame?"
Lin Wanrong smiled awkwardly and said, "I grew up in a remote and desolate village. I really haven't heard of him. Is this Old General Li Tai very famous? En, just this name alone is extraordinary enough. Of course, Young Master Li Wuling's name is also not bad. As expected, a tiger doesn't have a dog's grandson! "
Li Wuling clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Great, great, finally there is someone who doesn't know my grandfather's name. Otherwise, when he bullies me in the future, he will say that I, Li Tai, have been loyal for generations, guarding the border, and have an illustrious reputation. Who in the world doesn't know that even a little thing like you can't take care of me? "
Xu Zhen already didn't know what to say. Even the number one general of China's imperial court didn't know him. How did this General Lin sneak into the army, and how did he win the war? It was really inconceivable.
He couldn't bear to see his superior and idol in such an awkward situation. Xu Zhen laughed dryly and said, "General Lin might not know. This Old General Li Tai has been in the army for generations, guarding the ten thousand miles of the border. Twenty years ago, General Li Tai personally led fifty thousand elite troops to attack the Hu people's camp and killed the enemy's commander. His reputation is illustrious, and the Hu people are terrified when they hear about him. General Li's martial arts are strong, and he is proficient in the art of war. He is the number one general in China, and his reputation is so high that no one can match him. Not only that, the Li family has been loyal for generations, protecting the country with blood and iron. General Li's eldest son … "
At this point, Xu Zhen sneaked a glance at Li Wuling and continued, "The eldest son was the commander of the border. On the day his wife was about to give birth, he fought with the Hu people for seven days and seven nights, sacrificing his life heroically, leaving behind an orphan and a widow!"
Li Wuling gritted his teeth, his eyes glistening with tears. He waved his fist and said, "What's the point of saying all this? If he dies, then he dies. When going to war to kill the enemy, who doesn't sacrifice? If he dies, there's still me! If I die, there's still my son. The people of my Li family are endless, and there's no end to them. Even if the Hu people die, my Li family will not fall! "
Lin Wanrong understood. He was talking about Li Wuling. No wonder this kid was so competitive. He patted Li Wuling's shoulder, not saying a single word.
Xu Zhen continued, "General Li's second son, as a great general guarding the border, was ambushed by the Hu people eight years ago, and died to ten thousand arrows! It's a pity that he was guarding the border for so many years, but he didn't even get to see his fiancee's face … "At this point, Xu Zhen was already choking with emotions," General Li's family is the protector of the country, and they have been loyal for generations. Their reputation has spread all over the world, and they are the idols of our China's soldiers. "
Lin Wanrong nodded his head heavily. What else could he say? This was a war god! With such a backbone, China wouldn't be bullied by other races, and they wouldn't fall!
He blushed with shame. He actually didn't know such a loyal general, and he was really ignorant. Seeing Li Wuling's expression of grief and indignation, and his small fists were about to be crushed, Lin Wanrong laughed and said, "Li Wuling, didn't you want to compete with me on horseback? What are you waiting for?"
Li Wuling raised his head in surprise and looked at him, "Lin San … General Lin, is what you said true?"
Lin Wanrong nodded his head, and laughed loudly, "How can there be joking in the army? Li Wuling, for the sake of the Li family's generations of loyalty, no matter who you face, you can't lose, understand? "
"Understood! General Lin, I will defeat you! "Li Wuling roared like a tiger, and pounced in front of Lin Wanrong, swinging his fist toward his chest …
