Chapter 1156: Cause and Effect Determine My Thoughts?
"Master Hou knows me?" the boy looked surprised, and then smiled freely, "I see, with a character like Lord Hou, it is also very normal to know a cheap name, how can you deal with common sense." ”
As he spoke, the person clenched his fists again, and then said solemnly: "In the south of the Yangtze River, Sun Xun of the Sun family, I have seen the Marquis of Dingguo!"
After saying this, he didn't say anything, let alone twist at all, so he went straight to the carriage, and then said to Qiu Yan: "My scholar came all the way, and I hope that the Hou Ye will arrange a place for him to stay." ”
Qiu Yan nodded and said: "Look at your waist, hips, and arms, you are also a person with kung fu, you look weak, but in fact, your strength is restrained, and you must also be a good rider. ”
"Thank you, Master Hou. ”
"Hmph! It's fake, it's really hard to guard against. At this time, Wu Meng also turned over and landed on the horse again, he was tall and strong, this volley fell, and his feet stepped on the carriage, which actually made the carriage not shake and sink at all, reflecting the precise control of strength.
Sun Xun was not angry, looked at Wu Meng and said with a smile: "Brother Wu seems to have a prejudice against Sun. ”
"Pretending!" Wu Meng pursed his lips, "The most unaccustomed person in a certain family on weekdays is the children of a family like you. ”
"Brother Wu is really straightforward, but it is inevitable that he will be blinded," Sun Xun first arrived, but he was not afraid at all, he didn't have much scruples when he spoke, and he didn't seem to be afraid that he would annoy Qiu Yan by saying Wu Meng's words, "I have already said before, Brother Wu, you yourself are also the character of the family, and as far as I know, you also have a friendship with the children of the Bei family and the Tang family, and you are also a member of the family, how can you enter the eyes of the law? This is not contradictory to your statement?"
As soon as he said this, the air around him instantly froze. But it was that Wu Meng's eyes narrowed, and there was substance in the essence of his eyes, and the whole person exuded a solemn aura, which condensed the surrounding air a lot.
"It seems that you know Wu very well, I don't think you just came to investigate today, even if you came here to wait for Hou Ye, but you shouldn't expect Wu to accompany you, I don't know what your intentions are! You say that Wu is also the blood of the family, but this is not true, although my mother is also from the family, but she was not taken seriously at home at home, and when my father rose and the snobbery of the family, he paid attention to his mother. ”
"The family has been passed down for thousands of years. has its own set of survival rules, whether it is north or south, it is general, and what is done is just to maintain the bloodline. It's just that in the eyes of others, it is inevitable that there will be some forces, which is also a fact. Sun Xun's face was as usual, and he didn't seem to be affected by this solemn air in the slightest.
His body was thin. Although he was full of energy, he could still see it with Wu Meng's vision. This boy has not practiced martial arts, and he can't resist his aura and qi with vitality and strength, but this usual face is not deliberately pretending, not desperately resisting, the reason why this is so is because of his heart.
If the heart is firm and tenacious, the traction of the qi machine will not bring pressure and influence at all, because in the final analysis, this aura and qi machine are the expression of the influence of people's thoughts on the thoughts of others.
However, if he is not affected, he can feel it the same, of course Sun Xun understands why Wu Meng on the other side has such a violent reaction, so after saying that the family, he immediately changed his words and said: "However, Brother Wu, don't misunderstand, I didn't deliberately collect your intelligence information." ”
Wu Meng sneered: "If you don't deliberately collect it, how can you count the treasures?"
At this moment, Qiu Yan, who had been sitting next to him and watching Wu Meng and Sun Xun face to tooth for tat, said: "This matter, maybe it is really as Sun Gongzi said, but his so-called did not deliberately collect, not that he did not collect, but that he did not collect you." ”
"Hmm, what do you mean by that?" Wu Meng looked the same as usual when he faced Qiu Yan, but when he looked closely, he could still detect a trace of respect in his words.
Qiu Yan didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "The meaning of this is that Sun Gongzi should have an understanding and involvement in the intelligence information of people from all over the world, and he is familiar enough with everyone, so when it comes to one of them, of course, it is not deliberate." ”
"What?" Wu Meng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and then he looked at Sun Xun, seeing that the latter had no intention of refuting, he unconsciously acquiesced to Qiu Yan's words, and couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
"There are so many people from the world's families, does this Sun Xun know everyone?"
With such thoughts, Wu Meng's gaze at Sun Xun also changed slightly, although he hated the family, but the people who really had the ability among them still had some respect, but on the surface, there was not much change, and he still spoke badly to each other.
The sudden addition of Sun Xun and the scholar did not affect the progress of the entire team, and after passing through a small town and adding a horse, they continued to move forward.
On the way, Wu Meng and Sun Xun were still-for-tat, but as they spoke, the two of them vied with each other to ask Qiu Yan for advice, the difference was that Wu Meng asked more questions about martial arts, while Sun Xun focused on learning.
These two people are very different in terms of interests and temperaments, and it is inevitable that there will be contradictions - Qiu Yan also discovered that although Sun Xun is very indifferent on the surface, he still has a faint hostility towards Wu Meng and is unwilling to be compared to the other party.
However, although the two are hostile to each other, they become more and more respectful when facing Qiu Yan, this is because when the two are hostile, they want to suppress each other with words, and sometimes they will ask Qiu Yan for advice, but there is no topic that can ask Qiu Yan, whether it is martial arts, soldiers, Confucianism, Taoism, or even the words of the hundred schools, and even some questions from farmers and craftsmen, Qiu Yan can always explain things clearly in simple terms.
So, after some arguments, the two of them admired Qiu Yan more and more, so that both of them had other thoughts in their hearts.
This thought, when he arrived at a village and town on the outskirts of the capital, was finally picked out, and it was Sun Xun who made it clear.
"All the way together, the students are very impressed by the knowledge of the Hou Ye, when they are really pedantic, every word and deed are deeply reasonable, the students have learned along the way, compared to the previous accumulation is not much more let, I hope to serve the Hou Ye in the future, often taught. ”
This is still a bit vague, but the true meaning is not hidden at all.
"This person actually wants to worship Hou Ye as a teacher!"
As soon as Wu Meng heard this, he understood Sun Xun's plan, and anger immediately surged out in his heart, because he also had the same thought in his heart, but because of all this, he couldn't say it, but now he let Sun Xun, who was pretending to be in his eyes, take the lead, and of course he was angry.
This anger swelled up, and he immediately broke through his reason, so that Wu Meng didn't ask anything else, moved his body, and came to Qiu Yan, but he knelt down directly, and then said: "I also hope that Master Hou can take me under the door and listen to the teachings every day." ”
He is more direct than that Sun Xun, but this also forces himself to the point where there is no way to retreat, there is no room for turning, if Qiu Yan refuses, he will immediately lose all possibilities, but he is not as flexible as Sun Xun, he can attack and retreat.
It was Sun Xun who was not angry, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes fell on Qiu Yan, waiting for others to make a decision.
And Wu Meng also realized that his Meng Lang was nervous, and his rather casual temperament couldn't help but condense and wait for the result, but the sweat on his head couldn't help but flow.
"I had a reckoning ......"
Fortunately, Qiu Yan didn't let them wait long, so he spoke directly: "The method of calculation is quite mysterious, but the foundation is also in reality, and it is to judge the suitable person through the details and physiognomy, and the result I deduced at that time was that there should be five disciples in this life." ”
As soon as he said this, Wu Meng and Sun Xun were nervous, knowing that the next words were related to their own future, and they were also a direct reflection of the results of today's apprenticeship.
"Five disciples, doesn't that mean that there are still two places left?
Wu Meng's heart moved, this already tense heart, suddenly tightened a little, although he was stubborn on weekdays, but he was not ignorant of the world, for the things in the world, after all, he still knew something, so he knew that Qiu Yan already had three disciples.
But in comparison, after all, it is not as clear and comprehensive as Sun Xun knows.
"The real disciples of Dingguo Hou are Zheng Yun and Meng Sanyi, and that Huashe is said to be a registered disciple, but in fact there is no real entrance ceremony, it can only be said to be a false rumor, so there are still three people left in this disciple quota, so can I be one of the three?"
However, even if he knows more than Wu Meng, he is still worried about the same thing, because two people, or three people, are meaningless for a single person.
Of course, if it was someone else who sued them, saying that they had calculated that they could only have five disciples in their lives, then whether it was Wu Meng or Sun Xun, they would scoff at it, but if it was replaced by Qiu Yan, it would be different.
Of course, if it weren't for Qiu Yan, these two would not have raised the word of apprenticeship at all, let alone care about how many apprentices they could have.
But things have developed to this point, even characters like Wu Meng and Sun Xun will inevitably suffer from gains and losses, and I hope that I am fortunate to be one of the remaining places.
But Qiu Yan's next words disappointed them all.
"Among the remaining disciples, there are no two ......"
As soon as he said this, Wu Meng and Sun Xun were like deflated balls, and their whole spirits fell, but then Qiu Yan's words rekindled their hopes.
"However, if this theory of cause and effect is really predestined, life in the world will not have much meaning, but I will not stick to the amount of these five people!" (To be continued......)
