Geng Kui didn't know Jia Di, so he naturally didn't know how powerful he was. He stood beside Mu Weizhou and said to him,""Brother Weizhou, what happened? Is someone bullying you?"
Mu Weizhou frowned and said to Geng Kui,""Second Brother Geng, it's nothing. I'm talking to a friend."
Geng Kui did not answer. He saw Han Chao beside Jia Di and said with a smile,""Oh, who am I? So it's Fuma Han's family? What's wrong, Super Han? Don't you know your Second Uncle Geng?"
Super Han was Han Guang's nephew, and Han Guang's wife was the daughter of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu. Logically speaking, Geng Kui's uncle Geng Yan was of the same generation as Liu Xiu, so Geng Kui was naturally of the same generation as Han Guang. Geng Kui was an idiot at home, so it made sense for him to think that Han Chao was his second uncle.
Although Jia Di did not know what kind of person Geng Kui was, seeing his carefree attitude of not putting anything in his eyes, he was also confused. In his opinion, apart from Mu Weizhou who had some ability, the rest of these people in front of him did not have much skill. If he wanted to deal with them, it would only be a matter of lifting his hand and lifting his palm. However, this was Luoyang, the foot of the emperor. He was not willing to offend someone he should not offend because of a small matter. He looked at Han Chao, and after Han Chao leaned over to his ear and said a few words, Jia Di immediately smiled and cupped his fists at Geng Kui."Second Master Geng, I've heard a lot about you."
Geng Kui didn't look at him, and instead sat on the stool that Mu Weizhou had been sitting on and said,""What's wrong? You old man, how did my Brother Weizhou offend you? If there's anything, tell me first.”
When Mu Weizhou heard Geng Kui speak of righteousness, he was naturally moved by his righteousness. However, he thought that Jia Di's martial arts were powerful and might attack immediately. He hurriedly picked up a chopstick and leaned in front of Geng Kui to be on guard.
If Geng Kui had spoken to him like this elsewhere, Jia Di would have killed him with one palm. At worst, he would kill everyone in the shop to silence them. However, in Luoyang, this kind of thing was not allowed because there were too many implications. The smile on Jia Di's face became even wider as he said,"With Second Master Geng around, everything can be discussed. I'll leave now. I don't need Second Master Geng's concern.”Then, he said to Han Chao,"Let's go." Then, he turned around and walked downstairs.
Seeing this, Geng Kui wanted to stop him but was stopped by Mu Weizhou. At this moment, Jia Di had already walked to the staircase. He suddenly took out a wooden token from his bosom and threw it at Geng Kui, saying,""Young Master Mu, on the fifth day of the fifth month next year, we will see you at the Shennong Competition.”As he spoke, he led the group of people downstairs.
Mu Weizhou saw that although Jia Di threw the wooden token easily, the wooden token moved extremely slowly, as if it was floating in the air. He quickly pulled Geng Kui up, afraid that something bad would happen if the wooden token hit Geng Kui. Unexpectedly, the wooden tablet suddenly fell to the ground a foot away from Geng Kui. It smashed onto the ground with a " pa " sound and spun a few times before standing there motionless.
Some people thought that Jia Di knew some kind of spell when they saw the strange sign. However, Mu Weizhou and Ban Chao knew that Jia Di's martial arts were powerful, so they deliberately showed this move to Geng Kui, implying that they were giving Geng Kui face. Geng Kui also knew some superficial martial arts. When he saw the strange token, he knew that Jia Di's martial arts were indeed impressive. He also understood why Mu Weizhou stood in front of him after he finished speaking and did not let him stop Jia Di from leaving. If Jia Di had made a move just now, or hit the card directly at him, how could he still be alive? His heart could not help but jump.
Mu Weizhou saw Geng Kui bully Jia Di and felt at ease. Mu Weizhou walked over and picked up the wooden sign on the floor. He saw a few words engraved on it-Shennong Conference Invitation. Mu Weizhou looked at these words and guessed that this wooden tablet had something to do with the Shennong Assembly. Just now, he heard Jia Di mention something about the Shennong Assembly. Could this be an invitation to the Shennong Assembly? He suddenly remembered that Wang Chong was very knowledgeable, so he gave it to Wang Chong to see if he could say anything. Although Wang Chong was knowledgeable, he did not know much about the Jianghu. After a brief introduction of the Shennong Assembly, he deduced that this token might be an invitation to the Shennong Assembly.
While they were talking, Ma Rong and another young man greeted Ban Chao. It turned out that Ban Chao and Ma Yan were from Fufeng County, Chang 'an. They were from the same hometown. This time, Ma Yan was transferred to Lantai to study books and became colleagues with Ban Gu. The two families had visited each other a few days ago, so Ma Yi had to call Ban Chao second uncle. The one who greeted Ban Chao was Ma Yi's younger brother, Ma Xin. When Geng Kui heard this, he joked with Ma Rong that Ma Rong and Ma Xin should also call him Second Uncle in the future. Everyone laughed when they heard this.
Mu Weizhou asked the innkeeper to add four sets of cups and bowls, as well as more food and wine to entertain the people who came later. Everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while before Geng Kui introduced Ren Shang, another young man who had come with them. Mu Weizhou waited for the dishes to be served and poured Geng Kui a full cup, expressing his deep gratitude for his help just now. Geng Kui didn't mind. He was still complaining that Mu Weizhou shouldn't have pulled him back just now. Otherwise, he would definitely teach Jia Di and the others a lesson. Mu Weizhou had long known that Geng Kui had such a temper, so he did not point it out. A few young men also praised Geng Kui and clinked glasses with him.
When the youngsters drank together, they would not care about anything when they were in the mood. At first, everyone talked about the rules of seniority, but later on, they rubbed each other's shoulders and only drank. There was no second uncle, third nephew, or concubine's son. Superman was also very pleased with this happy occasion. He drank with the crowd while telling them stories about the war against the Xiongnu. The five young men were excited and wondered when they would have the chance to fight on the battlefield. It would be a good life. Mu Weizhou saw that everyone was in high spirits and was afraid that they would be too drunk to go home, so he saved some for them. In the end, he didn't even remember to hold back and started drinking wildly. As a result, the manager of Lantaiju was afraid that they would drink too much, so he filled half of the wine jars with water, but they didn't realize it.
Mu Weizhou did not know when he woke up the next day, but he felt dizzy and weak in his stomach. She clearly felt a thick arm pressing down on her chest, but she did not have the strength to move it. Just like that, he lay there in a daze for another hour. Suddenly, he realized that he did not seem to be in the Sunset Smoke Hall. He hurriedly opened his eyes in shock. What surprised her even more was that the thing that was placed across her chest was not an arm, but Ren Shang's thick leg. Geng Kui and Ren Shang's heads were facing the other side of the bed as they slept soundly.
Mu Weizhou felt dizzy. He absolutely could not remember how he had ended up sleeping in this place. It turned out that everyone at the Lantai gathering had drunk too much yesterday. In the end, only Ban Chao and Geng Kui were slightly sober. Geng Kui asked the shopkeeper to send someone to his house to drive a few cars and pull everyone to his house. Mu Weizhou had intended to thank Geng Kui for his help before going to rest. However, he did not expect to be pulled by Geng Kui, who was also drunk. He fell onto the bed and fell asleep after feeling comfortable. Ren Shang, who was beside them, thought that the two of them were playing around, so he also joined in the fun. He laid on top of the two of them and fell asleep.
Mu Weizhou glanced at Geng Kui and Ren Shang, who were still sleeping soundly. He pinched his head and thought to himself," This time, I've made a big deal." He sat down on the table beside him and tried to recall what happened yesterday. However, he couldn't remember anything else except that Ban Chao had mentioned that he was leaving Luoyang for the Double Ninth Festival and going to Jiuquan.
Mu Weizheng was feeling uncomfortable. He vaguely heard someone walking in from outside. He looked up and saw that it was a servant of the Geng family. It turned out that someone from the Ban family had come to take over. When the servants saw that the drunkards they had pulled back yesterday were still asleep, they came over to ask Geng Kui for instructions. Mu Weizhou saw that Geng Kui and Ren Shang were sleeping soundly, so he signaled the servants not to disturb them. Thinking that he would be on duty in the palace tonight, he went to Ban Chao's room with the servants and woke him up, preparing to leave together. The two of them woke up Wang Chong, and Mu Weizhou supported the two brothers with his legs as they walked out of the Geng Manor.
Mu Weizhou went out and saw that it was Wei Luan who had come to pick him up. He did not think too much about it and asked why Qingping did not come with him before climbing into the carriage. Mu Weizhou alighted from the car in a daze and went into his room to drink some tea. After resting for a long time, he finally felt much more clear-headed. He sat cross-legged on the couch and guided the energy according to the Kongyuan Art while swearing that he would never drink again. After guiding for an hour, his limbs had recovered their strength, and his body was also wearing protective clothing. He felt that it was unrealistic for him to not drink at all after making so many new friends. He spat on the ground three times and swore again that he would never get so drunk in the future.
Mu Weizhou had completely recovered, and it was almost dusk. After casually eating some food, he changed into his guard uniform and walked towards the palace. It was already the middle of June, the hottest time of the year. Although it was already dusk, the hot and humid air and the shrieking cicadas still made people irritated.
Mu Weizhou went to the Eastern Palace and found that Liu Meng was not there, saying that he had been summoned by the Emperor. After asking around, it seemed that Geng Kui happened to be on duty tonight. Seeing that it was almost time for the shift change, but he still did not show up, she could not help but worry for him. Not long after, Deng Zhi hurriedly ran in. It turned out that Geng Kui really couldn't get up, so he sent someone to get Deng Zhi to take over. Deng Zhi was the grandson of the founding father of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Deng Yu. His father was a doctor, Deng Xun. He was the youngest among the Crown Prince's Scheerers. He didn't talk much, but he was very thoughtful when he did things. The other Crown Prince's Scheerers were willing to accompany him on duty.
Mu Weizhou saw Deng Zhi running over and knew that Geng Kui would definitely not be able to get up. He was secretly pleased and thought that he would find an opportunity to joke with Geng Kui about today's matter in the future. Mu Weizhou and Deng Zhi were chatting casually, and soon, they somehow started talking about sword techniques. Deng Zhi was currently learning fencing. He had long heard that Mu Weizhou's swordsmanship was exquisite. Today, after listening to his lecture, he was indeed very logical. Mu Weizhou saw that Deng Zhi was listening attentively and became even more interested. He found a wooden stick and started to explain his understanding of swordsmanship to Deng Zhi while making gestures with it.
Mu Weizhou's understanding of the sword mostly came from the Tao Le Sword Art. With Mu Weizhou's current understanding of the sword, it was definitely not very profound. However, after practicing the Tao Le Sword Art for a long time, he naturally began to think about the sword. The reason why he was talking about the sword with Deng Zhi today was partly because people were " teacher-loving ". Just like how all seniors were willing to preach to their juniors, thinking that it was for their own good, but most of the time, it was actually for self-satisfaction. On the other hand, Mu Weizhou subconsciously had some thoughts about his experience with the sword during this period of time. It could be considered a sign that he wanted to undergo a qualitative change in his understanding. In fact, what Mu Weizhou needed the most right now was a brilliant teacher who could give Mu Weizhou guidance and suggestions from a certain height. Unfortunately, Deng Zhi could only play the role of a silly fan who listened to his lessons and could not give Mu Weizhou guidance and inspiration like a teacher. If that was the case, Mu Weizhou's understanding of the sword could easily advance to a higher level.
Speaking of being a teacher, it was a very special profession. Normally speaking, after a long period of interaction with society, everyone would naturally discover their own strengths and then find a suitable position for themselves, such as occupation, income, and other attributes that reflected social characteristics. However, many times, people took the initiative to play roles that they were not suitable for different reasons-- Han Yu once said," A teacher is a teacher who preaches knowledge and dispels doubts." Luo Su once believed that " the purpose of education is to cultivate a person's ideal character." Let's not delve into the deeper meaning behind their words, but we can clearly get a consensus-the education method of giving people the skills to serve society should not be the main function of education. If people were treated as educational products, then a person who only had work skills must be the crudest product. Perhaps all paintings had the function of decoration, but the value of a long-lasting work of art to the environment or to others was definitely far greater than that of a decorative painting that was judged by its age. At the beginning of man's life, it is like jade. Whether it was jade or drawing paper, although there might be a difference in quality or cutting, it would be a good work for everyone to make the best use of it. However, it would definitely be a waste of materials if it fell into the hands of a lousy craftsman. In fact, there was no difference between a teacher and a craftsman. It was just that the object of operation was a person with spirituality. However, there were too many lousy craftsmen in reality. They had no interest in sculpting or creating, and it was difficult for them to have enthusiasm. They were more eager to get paid after completing piecework. In fact, they did not care what they created, especially when there was no reasonable supervision or good standards. Confucius, the great teacher, once said a very classic saying-teach students according to their aptitude. A good teacher should adopt specific guidance and education methods according to the specific stage of each target. Only in this way could a person's potential be excavated to the greatest extent. A workshop with the concept of artistic creation would definitely be more valuable than a workshop with the concept of manufacturing, and it would have more vitality. Of course, for a person, the teachers that he could not get rid of were those people or things that he spent his days with.
Mu Weizhou didn't have anyone who knew the sword. He thought that he could ask Old Man Xi Yan for advice when he arrived at Xi Yan Hall, but he had not seen her for two to three months. Although Mu Weizhou was quite talented, practicing martial arts was also a skill. In many cases, it was like a thousand-year-old dark room that could be lit up with a single light.
The more Mu Weizhou and Deng Zhi talked, the happier they became. The other guards on duty listened to his lively speech and also surrounded him. At this moment, Mu Weizhou had completely sobered up. Looking at the guards around him who were staring at him with wide eyes, he suddenly felt like he was surrounded by stars, and he became more and more engrossed. In the beginning, he talked about his own understanding of the sword, but later on, he could no longer stop the car. He said that after mastering some sword techniques, he could use a flying sword from a thousand miles away to take a person's head. Some sword techniques could turn one sword into ten thousand swords after being mastered. Some could even stand on swords and fly after mastering it, and they didn't even need to use carriages. Wait, wait, wait. Some of his theories came from the legends of swords or swordsmen recorded in books, while some came from movies and games in the 21st century. The few young guards had never heard such a "wonderful" view before. On one hand, they were also filled with youthful sentiments. For a moment, they surrounded Mu Weizhou and clicked their tongues in wonder, asking him all sorts of questions. Later on, Mu Weizhou realized that if he wanted to answer the guards 'questions perfectly, he would really need to exhaust two thousand years of cultivation. However, he had already boasted to this extent, and could only counter every move. At least, he had no room for retreat.
Mu Weizhou had been living in vain in the courtyard, but he did not notice a person dressed as a Lantai Magistrate. He was already standing at the entrance of the Eastern Palace not far away, listening quietly. This person was about fifty years old, of medium build, slightly plump, and had a pair of bright eyes. The old man listened to Mu Weizhou's speech, occasionally stroking his white beard and looking at him with a faint smile. The application was hard to fathom.
Suddenly, a guard noticed the old man and shouted,""Who is it? How dare you barge into the Eastern Palace?"
In fact, these guards were supposed to be guarding the palace gates, but the Crown Prince was not around today, and they were all fooled by Mu Weizhou. They all ran to the courtyard, and no one realized that the old man was already standing at the entrance of the Eastern Palace.
When Mu Weizhou saw that someone had barged into the Eastern Palace, he also woke up from a dream. They were responsible for the security of the Eastern Palace. If they neglected the security of the Eastern Palace and caused someone to break into the palace, it would be a crime of dereliction of duty. Mu Weizhou parted the guards and walked two steps towards the old man. He saw that the old man was dressed in official robes and had a calm attitude. He had a refined and friendly bearing and did not look like a bad person. Just as he was about to ask, Deng Zhi said from behind,""Uncle Ma, why are you here?"
