Five days later, he arrived at Beihai. He wanted to meet the famous Beihai Mayor Kong Rong, but he still wanted to take a look around Beihai City first. He wandered around Beihai City, admiring the people and scenery in the city. After two days, the strange things became normal. At noon, Zhao Xin was eating in a restaurant. There were two people sitting next to him.
"I've heard that Governor Kong is going to hold a spring outing these days and invite all the famous people of Beihai to discuss poetry. I wonder if it's true." "
One of them said,"How could it not be true? Our Governor Kong is a very good guest." "
Xin Zhao stood up and walked to his neighbor's seat. He bowed and asked,""You two, I heard you two talking about this outing just now. May I know when and where it will be held? "
One of them replied,"Could it be that this gentleman also wants to go and meet for a while?" "
Zhao Xin replied,"Yes, I've heard of your name for a long time. I want to pay you a visit." "
The man replied,"Oh, the outing will be held in Governor Kong's mansion in two days. You can go there yourself." "
"In that case," said Zhao Xin,"thank you, brothers." "
Two days later, Zhao Xin went to the streets to buy a set of scholar's clothes. After wearing it, he looked a little like a scholar. He made a visiting card and asked someone to write the words "I am Zhao Zicheng from Linyi, paying my respects to the Lord of Confucius" and asked for the location of the prefect's residence. When he arrived at the prefect's manor, he handed over a visiting card and a servant sent it in. Not long after, he came out to welcome Zhao Xin in.
When he entered the hall, there were already eight or nine people in the hall. There was a man in the main seat with a long hat and a broad belt. He was more than six feet tall, his face was slightly pale, and there was a short beard under his chin. He thought that this man was Kong Rong and Kong Wenju. Zhao Xin made a long bow in the hall." I am Zhao Zicheng from Linyi. Greetings to the Lord of the Mansion of Confucius. Greetings, gentlemen." "
Kong Rong replied,"Sir, there is no need to be so polite. Please take a seat." "
Zhao Xin heard the few people beside him only make a slight " oh " sound. He was probably thinking in his heart," Who is this person? I've never heard of him before. He's probably here to seek help from Lord Kong."
Zhao Xin calmly walked to a seat at the side and sat down. After he sat down, a servant served tea at the right time.
"Mr. Zhao has come," said Kong Rong,"and I wonder what you have to say to him. "
Zhao Xin thought that Kong Rong was exaggerating a little. He was holding an outing here, but when he saw a nameless person like him, he didn't think that he was here to participate in the outing. Instead, it was as if he had something to ask of him.
Zhao Xin leaned forward slightly." I'm under your rule. I've heard of your name for a long time. Now that I've heard that you're organizing this outing, I've come to admire you and all of you." "
Kong Rong introduced everyone to Zhao Xin. These people only smiled or nodded. After the introduction, Kong Rong said,"We were just talking about poetry. Zicheng, please join us. "
Zhao Xin was instantly enraged. Kong Rong, you're underestimating me too much. Am I supposed to just listen from the side? When it comes to poetry, you're thousands of miles away from me. The so-called poetry of today is far inferior to that of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Zhao Xin just didn't want to plagiarize the works of his predecessors. Otherwise, he would be able to shock four people with just one of them. When it came to singing and dancing, the era he came from was really full of flowers. He believed that if he took out some classics, it would probably not be popular throughout the country. Thinking of this, he felt a little funny. When it came to these poems, with what he had mastered, he was enough to become a grandmaster in this era. However, he disdained it.
As he thought of this, he immediately lost interest in what they were talking about. He only sipped his tea and smiled as he watched these so-called celebrities talk about these seemingly gorgeous but extremely meaningless things. He thought to himself, I, Kong Rong, have also seen it. It's just that. I can't be bothered to lower myself to the level of you pedantic scholars.
Zhao Xin did not expect that someone would make things difficult for him.
As they were chatting, the person next to Zhao Xin, who was not known by his name, said,"We might as well listen to Zicheng's opinion" and turn to Zhao Xin."I'm willing to hear Zicheng's opinion." "His tone was filled with disdain.
Zhao Xin thought to himself,"Who do you think you are? I've never thought of you as a person. In the North Sea, besides Kong Rong, only Guan Ning and Bing Yuan are ranked high. But it seems that they're not here today." He snorted in his heart,"I'm in a good mood today, so I can't be bothered to argue with a nameless junior like you." "
Zhao Xin nodded and said,"How can I embarrass myself in front of you?" "
Seeing how everyone looked like they knew that Zhao Xin would be like this, he was very unhappy.
What made Zhao Xin especially angry was that someone actually said,"If that's the case, then please sit down. He smiled.
The others also laughed.
[This is really too much. These country bumpkins actually used me, Zhao Xin, as a laughing stock. It seems that if I don't teach them a lesson today, in the future, when they say that one day in Beihai, Zhao Xin and Zhao Zicheng won't dare to say a word during Governor Kong's outing, won't this greatly affect my handsome and unrestrained image? Moreover, my other half hasn't been settled yet. No, I can't let this matter affect Zhao Xin. I especially can't tolerate that these villainous scholars will laugh at me in the future.] The face of an invincible hero from heaven to earth.
Kong Rong was still relatively honest. He said,"Everyone, let's get down to business."
Zhao Xin thought that there was no need to be bullied by such a villain, so he stood up and said," Prefect, everyone, I have the honor of listening to a good discussion today and have benefited a lot. I would like to take my leave now. However, I still have one more thing to ask you. I have heard that Donglai's Taishi Ziyi is a hero. I heard that you know where he lives. I hope you can tell me." "
Kong Rong thought that he had probably offended this person today and felt a little embarrassed."Taishi Ziyi lives twenty miles outside the city, but I don't know if Taishi Ziyi is at home. Zicheng, why don't you stay with me for a few days? When I send people to investigate and find out that Taishi Ziyi is at home, Zicheng can go then. "
Zhao Xin thought to himself, if Taishi Ziyi doesn't come home for a long time, do you think I should stay here? What a guy who fishes for fame.
Zhao Xin refused," In a few days, I have to go somewhere else. If I am fated to meet Taishi Ziyi, that would naturally be good. If I am not fated, there is no need to force it. I will go on my own. I will bid farewell to the governor and gentlemen." "
After leaving the Residence of Confucius, he stayed at an inn for a night. The next day, he bought some food and cloth before heading to Taishi Ci's house.
When they arrived at Taishi Ci's house, they saw a person in the courtyard dancing with his spear. They were sure that the person was Taishi Ci. They saw Taishi Ci dancing with his spear in a domineering manner. He couldn't help but clap his hands and praise loudly,"Good spear technique, good spear technique!" "
Taishi Ci stopped and said,""I'm so generous. I wonder who you are and why you're here? "
When Zhao Xin saw Taishi Ci's pale face, beardless face, seven-foot-six height, and bright eyes, he couldn't help but have a good impression of him. "I'm Zhao Zicheng from Linyi. I heard that Ziyi's martial arts are strong and he's a hero. I've come to pay you a visit." "
"Please." Taishi Ci let Zhao Xin into the courtyard."A little fame is not worth mentioning!" "
Xin Zhao put down his things and sat down naturally."Ziyi, I like to be straightforward. When will we end this politeness? "
"Well said," Taishi Ci said,"I like straightforward men like you." "
"Ziyi, is auntie inside? How about Zhao Xin go and greet her? "
Taishi Ci had originally liked Zhao Xin because he was tall, strong, handsome, and straightforward. When he heard Zhao Xin mention his mother, he couldn't help but feel even happier. He pulled Zhao Xin's hand and said,"Okay, okay. Zicheng, follow me in." "
After paying their respects to Taishi Ci's mother, they sat opposite each other in the living room of his house. The two of them began to talk about martial arts, spear techniques, archery techniques, and the current world. After lunch, Taishi Ci pulled Zhao Xin out to compete with him in archery. They took turns shooting ten arrows at Taishi Ci's usual archery practice spot. Both of them hit the bull's eye. After shooting, they threw their bows down and clapped their hands and laughed.
After laughing, Zhao Xin said,"Zhao Xin and Ziyi hit it off at first sight. Why don't we become brothers?" "
Taishi Ci laughed heartily and said,"I had the same intention." "
So they returned to Taishi Ci's house, set up incense tables, and recounted their ages. Zhao Xin was twenty-four years old, the eldest, and Taishi Ci was twenty-one years old, the youngest. After the ceremony, the two of them addressed each other as brothers. Taishi Ci called Zhao Xin his elder brother, Zhao Xin called Taishi Ci his second brother, and Zhao Xin called Taishi Ci's mother his mother.
The two of them continued to talk about the art of war and martial arts. At night, they went to bed and got along well with each other, better than brothers.
Thus, Zhao Xin stayed in Taishi Ci's house. When Zhao Xin proposed to learn spear arts from Taishi Ci, Taishi Ci agreed without hesitation. After he went to the city and spent five taels of silver to forge a good spear, he began to learn spear arts from Taishi Ci.
After a month, he had actually learned fifty to sixty percent of Taishi Ci's spear technique, which made Taishi Ci call himself a genius. For some reason, Zhao Xin's strength was getting stronger and stronger. A month ago, his strength was on par with Taishi Ci's, but a month later, he was actually stronger than Taishi Ci. Two months later, Zhao Xin's spear skills became more and more proficient. He was almost ninety percent as good as Taishi Ci, which made Taishi Ci furious. He had been practicing spear skills for nearly six to seven years.
On this day, Zhao Xin said to Taishi Ci,""Second brother, now that you and I have some achievements in martial arts, why don't we go and meet the heroes of the world? "
Taishi Ci gladly agreed. He settled everything in the house and bought two horses. Zhao Xin and Taishi Ci set off for Luoyang together.
