Time flew like an arrow, and the sun and moon flew like shuttles.
In a flash, Liu Bei spent several months studying in the Lu Residence. Time really flowed like water, always making people unaware.
Perhaps it was because of his transmigration or some other reason, but Liu Bei was able to pick up any knowledge very quickly. His photographic memory was a small matter, and he could even draw inferences from one instance.
For example, he only needed Lu Zhi to teach him once and Liu Bei would remember it.
Another example was the art of war. He only needed Lu Zhi to explain it once and Liu Bei would understand.
On the other hand, in terms of martial arts, even if his teacher Lu Zhi and his senior brother Gongsun Zan taught him together, Liu Bei did not make much progress.
It was fine for Liu Bei to ride a horse and shoot arrows, but it was already good enough that he could ride a horse. It was already rare for him not to fall off.
As for Liu Deran, he was in a miserable state. He remembered this word and forgot that word. His martial arts skills were also relatively useless. However, Liu Bei realized that the little fatty was very talented in business. It was better than nothing.
During this period, it was worth mentioning that the relationship between Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan was getting closer and closer. However, Liu Bei was the leader, or rather, Gongsun Zan and Liu Deran listened to Liu Bei.
Teacher Lu Zhi was happy to see this happen. Lu Zhi was more optimistic about Liu Bei. If Lu Zhi only had hopes for Gongsun Zan to guard the border, then Lu Zhi had hopes for Liu Bei to pacify the world.
As a result, every time a friend came to visit, Lu Zhi would bring Liu Bei along and let Liu Bei know his face in front of his friends.
Who were Lu Zhi's friends? Many of the great people in history. For example, the great scholar Zheng Xuangong, the military magnate Huangfu Song, the calligraphy magnate Cai Yong, Guan Ning, Hua Xin, and other great talents.
Regardless of whether it was ancient or modern times, connections were one of the most important resources. With connections, there would be a future, and he would be able to achieve great things.
It could be said that Lu Zhi had opened up all his connections to Liu Bei, which made Liu Bei very grateful. It also made the name of Liu Bei, a genius that was given to him by the gods, widely known. Under the spread of the big shots, Liu Bei's name as a Han clan relative was also confirmed.
In return, besides studying and practicing hard, Liu Bei also used the medical books he had read in his previous life and his limited medical knowledge to carefully condition Lu Zhi's body.
Lu Zhi's health was not good, but he did not hide his illness from the doctor. On the account of Liu Bei's good intentions and filial piety, he really let Liu Bei play with him. Moreover, Liu Bei had clearly explained Lu Zhi's illness and even hit him to the point.
In the future, high blood pressure, high blood fat, and cardiovascular diseases were considered common and frequently-occurring diseases. Anyone would know a thing or two about them, and they would even be able to name a variety of medicines to treat them.
There was no western medicine, nor was there any Chinese medicine. There was only Chinese medicine and daily conditioning.
As for where the herbs came from? With Erha's senior brother Gongsun Zan around, everything was not a problem.
Moreover, the medicinal herbs were only ordinary Chinese herbs, such as Tianma, Danshen, Hawthorn, and so on. Its effects were to dredge the meridians and promote blood circulation, calm the liver, calm the wind, and lower blood pressure.
Even so, after a period of recuperation, Lu Zhi's body was no longer a problem. It was countless times better than the same period in history.
It could be said that as long as Lu Zhi didn't encounter anything that attacked his heart in anger and lived a peaceful life, it wouldn't be a problem for him to live to 70 or 80 years old. Compared to the average age of 40 to 50 years in the Han Dynasty, this was definitely a long life.
……
On a certain day.
While Liu Bei was learning martial arts, he felt that his life lacked entertainment. Since he couldn't go online or play games on his phone, he started to fiddle with some entertainment projects.
Due to the limitations of the conditions, Liu Bei started with chess. This was simple. He just needed to carve a set of chess out of wood. The rules of the game were also simple. It was just that it was easy to learn but difficult to master. It was just right for entertainment.
There were records of Chinese chess during the pre-Qin period. It was called Xiangqi during the pre-Qin period. There were six black and six white stones each, and the method was different. Liu Bei didn't understand how it was different.
What Liu Bei wanted to make was the chess of the later generations. It was said that it was made by Niu Sengru of the Tang Dynasty. However, Liu Bei would definitely not say it and treated it as his own invention patent.
"Junior Brother Liu, what is this? Elephant Acer? It doesn't look like it!" Gongsun Zan was confused. The elephant was not like this. It did not have so many chess pieces.
"It's an elephant chess piece, but it's just an evolved version. According to the dream of the gods, it's called Chinese chess.”Liu Bei explained," The black and white chess pieces have six pieces each, while the red and black chess pieces have sixteen pieces each.”
"How? How? Teach me, teach me." Gongsun Zan and Liu Deran shouted in unison.
"Don't worry, let me carve another chessboard first.”Liu Bei had already carved thirty-two chess pieces and was carving the chessboard.
To learn how to play Chinese chess, it was definitely the fastest way to learn while playing. Even if Gongsun Zan and Liu Deran did not request it, Liu Bei would still press these two families on the chessboard.
Very quickly, Liu Bei finished carving the chessboard. He did not forget to write the words " Chu River and Han Realm " and the two lines of small words " Watching the chess without saying a word, a true gentleman, raising his hand without regrets, a true man."
"Chu River Han Realm. Junior Brother, are you inspired by the conflict between Chu and Han?”Gongsun Zan glanced at it and said,"I'm the best at marching and fighting."”
Liu Bei looked at his Senior Brother Gongsun Zan who was bragging and rolled his eyes."Inspired by the war between Chu and Han, you are the best at marching and fighting, hehe!”
Liu Bei then explained the basic moves and rules of Chinese chess. This wasn't difficult to learn. Even Erha's senior brother Gongsun Zan and the little fatty Liu Deran quickly understood.
Understanding was one thing, and playing was another. What made Liu Bei depressed was that these two guys really only knew these chess pieces and did not know what to do when they played.
After playing a few rounds, Gongsun Zan presented the chess to his teacher, Lu Zhi, as if he was presenting a treasure. Lu Zhi was indeed worthy of being a master of military strategy. He immediately understood the meaning and fun of chess.
"Xiangqi, isn't this just war chess deduction?”Lu Zhi shook his head and said,"Since ancient times, the basic structure of the army is a five, composed of five infantry." Combat weapons were also made up of bows, spears, spears, daggers, and halberds.”
Lu Zhi's explanation was reasonable and well-founded, which made Liu Bei, the creator of the invention, gasp in amazement. It could only be said that Lu Zhi was indeed Lu Zhi. An awesome person would always be an awesome person, and a big shot would always be a big shot.
Liu Bei did not know that Lu Zhi's performance was even more exaggerated. Otherwise, he would regret playing chess.
On the first day, Lu Zhi studied Chinese chess.
The next day, he started to play with Liu Bei. He was still playing well, but he was beaten up by Liu Bei.
On the third day, Lu Zhi and Liu Bei played well. Lu Zhi lost more than he won.
On the fourth day, Lu Zhi and Liu Bei fought back and forth, with each side winning half of the battle.
On the fifth day, Liu Bei could not hold on.
On the sixth day, Liu Bei flipped the chessboard and fled.
As for Gongsun Zan and Liu Deran, the two of them were very good at playing. Against Liu Bei and Lu Zhi, they could only be cut into pieces.
It was also because of Chinese chess that Liu Bei and the others had an additional interest in their boring learning life. The combination of work and rest had always made people happy, and they could get twice the result with half the effort.
It was a pity that it was not a male and female combination. Otherwise, it would have been even better.
……
Another day.
While Liu Bei was learning and practicing, his teacher Lu Zhi grabbed him and pressed him against the chessboard. Liu Bei could only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.
Yes, it was to let go and let Teacher Lu Zhi press him on the chessboard.
"Xuande, life is like chess, and chess is like life. What kind of game are you going to play?”Lu Zhi suddenly said while Liu Bei was thinking hard about what to do next.
Liu Bei thought for a while and said,""Use the world as a chessboard and all living beings as chess pieces.”
Lu Zhi laughed out loud and stroked his beard." What a big game of chess. Good, good, good. I have high hopes for you!"”
