Be a master through ancient times

"Knock Knock Knock!"

Chu Ci stood in front of the gate of Xu's house and knocked lightly on the door a few times.

"Master Chu, the master said that I won't see you today." The man said with some distress, presumably Xu Zheng had ordered him earlier.

"Oh? Why didn't the old man see me?"

"I don't know either. He sat in the backyard for a long time yesterday. After returning to his room, he said, if you come today, you won't be allowed in."

Chu Ci screamed in his heart, the old man must be angry because he didn't come yesterday. "Brother Xu, you can inform me, just say the words 'Master Chu said', and that's enough."

Xu Mu nodded: "Then I'll go in and report to the old man, and you can wait at the door, okay?"

Chu Ci smiled and nodded.

After a while, the old man rushed out himself, and spat at Chu Ci: "You bastard, you used all your tricks on me! Walk around, I won't teach you anymore from today on!"

"Grandpa, don't be impatient, don't you want to know that the student hasn't finished speaking?" Chu Ci blinked innocently at Xu Zheng.

"Say!"

"The student brought a painting, you must like it after reading it."

Looking at Chu Ci's ingratiating smile, Xu Zheng couldn't help but feel a bit like a chicken talking to a fox.He remembered the irregular cube that Chu Ci accidentally mentioned last time. Although he didn't know what a cube was, he couldn't help scratching his heart and lungs when he thought of the word irregular, and finally tossed and turned to Tianjiang I will fall asleep tomorrow.

"Don't you kid want me to see those messy things?"

"Mr. Xu, you don't trust me too much, do you? If you say you like it, you will definitely like it!" Chu Ci's firm expression showed some small grievances, which made Xu Zheng suspect that he had wrongly blamed him.

"Open it and let me have a look." He showed mercy, and finally decided to take a look at his paintings. If those paintings make people uncomfortable, we must shoot this disrespectful kid out today!

Chu Ci slowly unfolded the picture scroll held in his hand, and a spiral figure appeared in front of Xu Zheng. It was round as a whole, with complicated lines in the middle, but each of them had a symmetrical line.Then a flower pattern is formed in the middle, and the left and right sides of the flower are exactly the same.

Xu Zheng looked at the painting and couldn't help but stare blankly.To be honest, he had never come across a painting that suited him so well.Although, this doesn't seem like a painting, does it?It doesn't have the elegant and elegant or vigorous atmosphere that everyone appreciates, and it doesn't even express expressiveness. It's just painting for the sake of painting.

He was instantly satisfied, and this kid actually created a painting for him alone.

"I accept this painting, come in." Xu Zheng took the painting and brought Chu Ci to his study.

The study is neat and tidy, and everything is placed in a fixed position. If someone flips through his study one day, the old man will definitely be the first to know.

Chuci first took out the finished article for him to correct, and Xu Zheng became more serious when he started to learn.He pointed out Chu Ci's mistakes, and then gave him a detailed analysis of the source of the topic and the background of the article at that time, and then guided him to solve the problem again.

After Chu Ci was finished again, an hour had passed before I knew it.

"Thank you Mr. Xu for your advice." Chu Ci put away the article and bowed to him.Although Xu Zheng has not agreed to accept apprentices, Chuci treats him as a husband.

Master Qin is also a teacher and a father to him, but Xu Zheng is also a teacher and a friend to him. When the two get along, it seems that they have forgotten their friendship.

"Here, this is today's topic, take it back and do it, show it to me tomorrow, let's go." Xu Zheng took out the topic that he had already written, and threw it to Chu Ci.

Chu Ci took it, but did not leave.He said: "Mr. Xu, there is still one thing that the students don't understand. I want to ask you, sir. If you were in it, what would you do?"

"Oh? Tell me?"

"It's like this, if someone is watching in the dark, and is always ready to find opportunities to deal with you, and the methods are endless, which is annoying, what should you do?"

"This is not easy to handle? Seize the first opportunity and get rid of the latter quickly."

"Then what method should be used?"

With a "pop", a copy of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" was thrown in front of Chu Ci.

"Are you always reading military books? Forgive me for being stupid, which of the 36 strategies is applicable here?" Chu Ci was unwilling to use his brain.

"You won't tell me the whole thing? How can I give you any advice!" Xu Zheng rolled his eyes at him. Although he knew that this kid was pretending to be crazy, he just wanted to be lazy, but if he didn't use real means to open this kid's eyes, this kid Surely you won't really admire him!

Chuci then told several things together in detail. Xu Zheng stroked his beard and said, "This kid seems to be a man of age. For those of us who govern the Spring and Autumn Period, although we must make good use of methods and skills, we must not lose our heart."

"Students remember the teacher's teaching."

Seeing that Chu Ci responded very seriously, Xu Zheng felt a little unnatural. He coughed, and then said:

"Since he treats you like this, then you don't have to be soft-hearted. You must know that you should stop and accept the truth. In this way, you first use a trick to make the scholar turn against him, and then use a trick to startle the snake and make him Be vigilant, so that he can strike first, and then watch the fire from the other side, watching them fight together, and take the bottom of the pot with the last move to take it down!"

Chu Ci was overjoyed: "Thank you, sir, for your guidance. The students understand. You really deserve to be everyone, no matter what aspect you are in, you are so admired by the students."

"Hmph, you young people still have a lot to learn! You know, the old man has eaten more salt than you have ever eaten!"

"Sir, what you said is, it's just that your taste is too strong, right? Eating so much salt is not good for your health hahaha." After Chu Ci finished speaking, he picked up the things on the table and ran outside. When he ran into the yard, He called into the study: "Take your leave, sir, the students will come back tomorrow!"

Xu Zheng's angry expression only lasted until after Chu Ci left, he shook his head with a smile, cursed "you bastard", then opened the painting on the table again, carefully observing the mystery inside.

……

After Chu Ci returned to the academy, he found that Chu Xiaoyuan was alone in the room, with a sullen face on his face.

"Xiaoyuan, what's wrong with you? Where's Yu'er, where did he go? Did you two quarrel again?"

"Uncle, I'm no longer a child of three or four years old, how can I always quarrel with others." Chu Xiaoyuan said depressingly.

"Then what's wrong with you? What about others?" Chu Ci asked, is it okay to lose the child?

"After school today, I walked back with him. Who knew that Grandpa Xu appeared suddenly and took Yu'er away. He originally wanted to take me with him, but I was afraid that no one would tell you, so I didn't go with him. .”

"So cute!" Chu Ci praised first, and then asked, "Did Grandpa Xu say anything?"

"Grandpa Xu seems to have said something, uncle will come back at night or something."

Brother Kou is coming back?Chuci was overjoyed, but worried that he couldn't find anyone to help him!
