Chapter 617: Xiao Bang is confused
A group of villains continued to laugh, which made Qin Feng unable to endure it, and couldn't help but say: "It's just an elephant, and it's not a divine beast, what are you proud of?" ”
The laughter stopped abruptly, and the people who were still laughing just now looked at Qin Feng incredulously like a male duck whose neck was choked.
Cai Mao, Zhang Yun and the others exclaimed, they really didn't expect that Qin Feng would know about elephants!
"Elephant!" When Liu Bei heard about it for the first time, he was immediately relieved when he saw the appearance of everyone, and said in his heart that this Heshan is really well-informed, and Zhuge Liang is not as good as him.
Cao Cao was also taken aback, and said in his heart, okay, Zijin, where have you seen this kind of thing! After Cao Cao was surprised, his mind sank. Because he has known Qin Feng for more than ten years, he has never seen a thing that can stump Qin Feng.
For example, this elephant is not available in the Han Dynasty, unless Qin Feng has been to a wild land! This made Cao Cao almost unbelievable that Qin Feng had been to that kind of place, and he was so well-informed, which made Cao Cao afraid of the inevitable battle in the future.
The scene fell silent, and Cai Mao and the others were speechless when they saw that Qin Feng was not stumped.
Qin Feng sneered back: "A long-nosed elephant is very ordinary, and only ignorant people like you are regarded as a treasure!" ”
Liu Biao was embarrassed when he heard this, glared at Cai Mao, and said in his heart that your idea of sassing people has not been able to stump people now, and it is embarrassing.
The people of the Jingzhou clan who attended the meeting couldn't help but look at Qin Feng with admiration, and said in their hearts that this person came from the north, and he was really well-informed, and even the elephants knew about it.
Qin Feng said that elephants are ordinary, which in people's eyes is because they are well-informed. However, in the ears of the barbarians, it is a different matter. This elephant is huge. Fearlessness is very good, and in the eyes of the barbarians, they are all divine beasts.
The elephant was brought to Jingzhou by three barbarians. The leader of them was named Wu Lijin, and two other companions. One is called Abasse, and the other is called Busy. After the three of them came to Jingzhou with the elephant, everyone was shocked and amazed everywhere they went, and the three of them were very proud.
They were accustomed to listening to words of admiration, and now after hearing Qin Feng's understatement, they were very dissatisfied.
The barbarians were very in awe of elephants, and in his anger, the Wu Lijin led by him thought of a problem that had plagued his people for thousands of years. Therefore, he asked Qin Feng and said: "This adult, in the small state of Xiajiaozhou, he admires the culture of Shangbang, and specially sent the precious elephant and giant beast of Xiaobang, which is invincible and fearless. Since you said this thing is very ordinary, do you know how much this behemoth weighs? ”
"Yes! How much does such a huge elephant weigh! Everyone was aroused by curiosity, and suddenly came to their senses.
"Look, how can there be a thousand catties!"
"No, no. There are hundreds of ordinary horses, so huge, let alone 3,000 catties! People talked.
It was the elephant brought by Cai Mao, who failed to stump Qin Feng. So there is no face. He was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Heshan, do you know how much this elephant weighs?" ”
I'm going to go! Qin Feng scolded secretly. The heart said that there is no weighbridge here, how do I know how heavy! However, he smiled and asked, "Dare to ask General Cai how heavy it is?" ”
Cai Mao was stunned when she heard this. Can't answer.
Qin Feng sneered: "This thing passed through the hands of the general, and the general should know how much it weighs. Now the general doesn't even know. Not to mention going to explore and explore, he actually came to ask me, it's really putting the cart before the horse! ”
"This ......! Damn it! Cai Mao's face suddenly turned pale, and she was speechless for a while.
At this time, Zhang Yun on the side whispered.
Cai Mao immediately came to the spirit, he immediately asked Wu Lijin and the others, who knew that Wu Lijin and the others were using the questions in the clan to ask Qin Feng, and they didn't know how heavy this elephant was.
Since ancient times, small states have been very small in all aspects, and if they can stump Shangbang, it will be really face-saving. Therefore, Wu Lijin no longer asked Qin Feng alone, and saluted for a week and said: "We have always admired the culture of the Central Plains, and you are all capable people with lofty ideals, I don't know which one can solve the villain's doubts?" ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, this barbarian was obviously asking for advice, if they couldn't give an answer, then the face of the kingdom would be lost.
The people of the barbarian tribe also have face, and they suddenly found that this problem that has stumped their own people for thousands of years is very likely to stump these high-ranking old men of the Han Dynasty, and they suddenly came to their senses.
I saw Wu Lijin salute Liu Biao again, and said: "Lord Liu is a relative of the Han Dynasty, and our small states respect him." This elephant has been in the small state for thousands of years, and no one can know how heavy it is, and I don't know that the upper state may solve the puzzles of the small state. ”
Liu Biao was embarrassed when he heard this, and he had to say to his subordinates: "Everyone, who can weigh this elephant and solve their doubts?" ”
I only heard Kuai Liang say: "If you can make a big scale, you can weigh it if you want to come!" ”
Han Song immediately sneered and said, "Don't be kidding, even if you can build a scale, no one has the strength to lift this elephant up and weigh it!" ”
At this point, Liu Biao's subordinates were helpless. The wealthy families in other places in Jingzhou are bystanders.
Liu Bei immediately seized the opportunity to improve his prestige, and he hurriedly heard Zhuge Liang and said, "Military advisor, what can you do!" ”
Zhuge Liang was silent while thinking.
Liu Bei hurriedly asked Qin Feng again: "Mr. Heshan, what can you do?" ”
Qin Feng came from a later life, and he could estimate the general weight of an elephant, but no one would believe it when he said it, and he still needed to be weighed on the scale. But this Eastern Han Dynasty guy has little to do, and it is really difficult to get the weight of an elephant, so Qin Feng said: "There is no way for a while!" ”
His words were immediately heard by the people on Liu Biao's side.
"Heshan, this kid can't think of it, hurry up, you guys quickly think of a way!" Cai Mao hurriedly said to his colleagues on the left and right.
As a result, Kuai Liang, Yi and others, who were suppressed by Qin Feng, had a brain teaser turning, but they only read the classics of Chinese studies and had the ability to be the champions of liberal arts, and no one could think of a way to study science for a while.
The three barbarians who sent the elephant were all overjoyed when they saw that they were able to stump the kingdom. He communicated in barbarian language, showing a look of contempt from time to time.
Jingzhou is Liu Biao's territory, if he is ashamed, he is the most humiliating. If it is embarrassing internally, forget it, this person is thrown abroad, which makes Liu Biao almost unbearable. Displeased. said to his first confidant: "General Cai, quickly think of a way to come out!" After speaking, he picked up the tea bowl and drank tea. to hide the embarrassment.
"Yes, yes!" Cai Mao saw that Liu's appearance was not good. The heart said that if he couldn't think of a way, his position would not be guaranteed.
At this time, a guard behind Cai Mao who was five big and three thick, with a face full of meat, approached and said, "General, is this so?" ”
"Not bad!" Cai Mao immediately became excited, and saw him flip a whole roast chicken on the table and flip it on the table.
This immediately attracted everyone's ideas.
I saw Cai Mao suddenly pull out his sword. The sword light and sword shadow flashed, and after the sword was sheathed, the roast chicken on the table became more than a dozen pieces, and Cai Mao stroked his beard and smiled: "What do you think of it!" ”
Poof~, Liu Biao squirted out the tea in his mouth at that time.
Who could not know such an image, and the scholars at the banquet exclaimed one after another. However, this is a good way to weigh an elephant.
Qin Feng smiled secretly, and hurriedly got up and said, "General, this method is really beyond the reach of others. Heshan is willing to bow to the wind, hurry, quickly divide this elephant! The trunk of the elephant is single-cut, and the ivory is left to me! ”
Cai Mao was triumphant when she heard this. I can't help but look at Kuailiang, Yi and others. The heart said that you civil officials are not good, and in the end, you still have to rely on General Ben to stump this Heshan.
Kuai Liang, Yi and other civil officials looked at each other, revealing disdainful expressions. The heart says that you are a big old man. You have slaughtered other people's tributes, and it has been reported that people are embarrassed. How can people give up!
Sure enough, the three barbarians were all heartbroken. looked at Liu Biao together and said, "My lord, don't, don't kill!" ”
Abasse said, "What kind of solution is this! ”
The companion hurriedly said: "I thought that there were countless capable people in Shangbang, and they could come up with a proper way to weigh the elephant and solve the puzzles of our small state." Who knew it would be such a bloody method! If this is the case, Xiaobang already knew the weight of elephants thousands of years ago, and I still need to ask you! ”
Wu Lijin said indignantly: "The kingdom of heaven has come up with such a cruel method, and it is not a state of etiquette!" ”
Everyone was embarrassed when they heard this, Liu Biao wiped the tea on his mouth, and hurriedly said: "General Cai, this method is not feasible, how can you kill the elephant and snub the admiration of the foreign domain!" Let's think of another way! ”
"How good this is, you'll know ...... right away." Cai Mao muttered and sat down stupidly.
At this time, Cao Cao couldn't help but say: "Zijin, what kind of bullshit method is this, children can think of it!" ”
Qin Feng smiled and said loudly: "General Cai really deserves to be the number one general in Jingzhou, rough, he is a good hand when he wants to kill pigs and sheep!" ”
Cai Mao was furious when she heard this, and shouted: "Heshan, you don't have to be proud, you have the ability, you have to find a way to come out!" ”
Qin Feng smiled slightly, ignoring him.
At this time, Wu Lijin, led by the barbarians, sighed: "The Central Plains culture has a long history, and great sages have emerged in an endless stream, and our small states have always admired them. I thought I could solve the puzzle, but unfortunately, it's a pity ....... ”
"It seems that the former state has decayed...... ”
"There is no capable man ......." Finally, he said suddenly.
All the wealthy families at the banquet looked extremely embarrassed when they heard this, but they couldn't think of an idea, so they could only let others ridicule them.
Cao Cao was also embarrassed, and said: "It's a shame, people come to pay tribute, and they can't answer a single question, if they are filial piety here, they will never let us lose the national body!" ”
For Qin Feng, personal affairs are small, national affairs are big, and this country must not lose face.
When everyone went to the meeting and was embarrassed to face the barbarians of Xiaobang, Qin Feng pondered it, recalling what he had seen and heard in later generations, which really made him think of a feasible solution, so he stood up and sneered: "How can it be difficult for me to go to the state with a small problem!" ”
Everyone was surprised, and their eyes couldn't help but focus on Qin Feng. Now, from the internal factional struggle, it has risen to the height of the nation. Therefore, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun and others, although they have an enmity with Qin Feng, they also expect him to be able to answer and let these small states know how powerful Shangbang is.
For thousands of years, the elephant has been the largest animal on land, docile and powerful, and has been revered as a totem by the people of all ethnic groups in the wilderness. At this moment, Wu Lijin really wanted to know how heavy the elephant was, and after bringing the news back, he could solve the problem that had plagued his clan for thousands of years. Therefore, he said sincerely: "This adult, if you can solve your doubts, Xiaobang is really grateful!" Just don't kill elephants, such a giant beast is really hard to come by! ”
When Qin Feng saw the friendliness, he became kind and said, "This envoy is relieved, this ...... This method will definitely not hurt the elephant! ”
Wu Lijin was overjoyed and saluted respectfully: "I don't know what the adults do?" ”
And with that, everyone's ears stood up. (To be continued......)
