Lin Tailai's rhetorical question sounded like a provocation to Gao Panlong's ears.
Because when Gao Panlong was a boy, he was a famous child prodigy in eight villages and towns in Wuxi County. When he reached adulthood, he won the imperial examination three years ago, when he was 21 years old.
Moreover, he was praised by the examiner as "the best scholar in the world", so he was a very arrogant person, and no one except Gu Xiancheng accepted him.
Gao Panlong immediately jumped off the platform and said to Lin Tailai: "Then I will learn Mr. Jingchuan's skills from Lin Sheng!"
Lin Tailai looked around and saw a flagpole erected in the open space behind him.
Rumor has it that during the reign of Emperor Taizu Gao, students who violated laws and disciplines and did not study seriously would beheaded and then hung up flagpoles to show the public.
An unruly person like Lin Tailai would probably not survive more than three days if he fell into the hands of Emperor Taizu Gao.
Then Lin Daguan walked to the flagpole, stretched out his hand to test the thickness, and nodded with satisfaction.
When everyone was confused and didn't know what Lin Tailai was holding the flagpole for, they saw Lin Tailai shouting loudly and pulling out the flagpole without any effort.
This flagpole is also four to five meters long, and the end that is inserted into the ground has a pointed end, which can be used as a gun tip. Lin Daguan is even more satisfied.
He skillfully shook the "big gun" with both hands, pointed the gun tip at Gao Panlong, and shouted again: "Let's start!"
Gao Panlong: "???"
An Xifan and Gao Panlong, who were standing in the crowd, were close in age. They had always had a good relationship and would get married in the future.
At this time, An Xifan couldn't stand it, so he stood up and shouted: "Friend Lin is planning to rely on his height and strength to defeat others with force?"
Lin Tailai replied rationally: "Didn't this high-ranking friend want to see the skill inheritance of senior Tang Jingchuan?
This is the Liuhe marksmanship passed down by senior Tang Jingchuan, and I am here to show it to my friends! "
Everyone was stunned. Is this the skill you mentioned was passed down from Tang Shunzhi?
Gao Panlong angrily scolded: "This is the academy, hundreds of comrades are here, An Neng can sit back and watch you do whatever you want!"
After hearing Gao Panlong's words, everyone seemed to be reminded of something and silently stayed away from Gao Panlong.
Tang Shunzhi's marksmanship was very famous back then. If Lin Sheng really learned Tang's marksmanship, it would be safer not to be around Gao Panlong.
Seeing Gao Panlong with a large circle around him, Lin Tailai got into a mischievous mood, suddenly stepped forward, and then stabbed straight with his gun!
Gao Panlong stepped back subconsciously, but his heel accidentally caught in the crack of the bricks, and he fell backwards and sat on the ground.
Lin Tailai couldn't help laughing, leaning on the flagpole and laughing: "I was just joking with the Xishan gentlemen, why should I take it so seriously!
I, Mr. Lin, am also a gentle man, but I don’t know much about martial arts. Gao Jun can rest assured! "
At this moment, suddenly the Zhang brothers in the distance shouted: "Be careful while sitting in the restaurant!"
From the crowd of servants not far away on the other side, six big men with angry faces rushed out.
And without saying anything, he went straight to Lin Tailai.
Lin Tailai subconsciously turned to Gao Panlong and asked, "Who are these people?"
As soon as Gao Panlong fell, these people rushed out, and they must have something to do with Gao Panlong.
Besides, the Gao family made their fortune from loan sharking. How could such a family not have any thugs?
Therefore, Lin Daguanren guessed that these six big men who looked like thugs were probably Gao Panlong's servants.
Gao Panlong climbed up from the ground without saying a word, and just watched the six thugs rushing towards Lin Tailai with an expressionless face.
As long as you don't say anything, it's not your instigation, and no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with you.
Six against one, the advantage is mine.
Lin Tailai saw Gao Panlong and did not answer. He could only turn around and fight with the flagpole in hand, shaking his gun.
When the distance was about the same, the gun shot out like a dragon in an instant, stabbing down two big men in succession!
But the crisis has not been resolved yet, the scene is relatively open, and the other four big men are already close.
Anyone who knows marksmanship knows that people who are used to big guns are most afraid of being approached.
Gao Panlong thought to himself, four against one, I still have the advantage.
Lin Tailai immediately dropped the flagpole, jumped a few times to dodge, and opened up a little space to prepare for the situation.
In the eyes of outsiders, they could only see that Lin Daguan was forced to throw down his weapon, jump and dodge a few more times, and then punch a few times with his big sleeves, and all four big men fell to the ground.
One to six, he was completely defeated without any injuries in the blink of an eye, and the total was less than ten rounds!
Lin Tailai didn't even break a sweat and sighed secretly. This time was not satisfying at all.
The locals on and off the stage were stunned. This Lin Sheng still said you don’t know martial arts?
These thugs from the Gao family are known to be brave, and they have defeated all the opponents in Wuxi County. Are they all fake?
Before everyone came to their senses, Lin Tailai shouted extremely angrily at Gu Xiancheng on the platform:
"I am a scholar with a trivial life! I am just passing through Xishan on a study tour!
Unexpectedly, he was besieged by villains in the academy! It turns out that this is how you, the Xishan literary world, entertain your fellow outsiders! "
Gu Xiancheng, who has always been extremely eloquent, was left speechless when questioned.
What kind of useless thugs do the Gao family have? If you win, there will be no problems!
Another student, An Xifan, the most loyal believer, stood up and accused Lin Tailai:
"It was your nonsense about Mr. Jingchuan's inheritance that caused the misunderstanding in the first place!"
Lin Tailai retorted: "It is etiquette to sing whatever song you go to in any mountain!
I deliberately mentioned Mr. Jingchuan, a famous scholar from Changzhou Prefecture, out of respect for you from Changzhou. Is this wrong?
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't they use Mr. Jingchuan's name to flatter each other and appear friendly?
Who would have thought that there would be such a fool in your land? After hearing Mr. Jingchuan’s inheritance, he would jump out and challenge!
Then what else can I do? "
An Xifan: "."
Oops! This person can quibble even more than Teacher Gu, what should we do!
In fact, when asked about the origin of the sect just now, it wasn't that Lin Daguan had to talk about Tang Shunzhi, it was mainly because there was no other suitable person to talk about.
Limited to his social circle, the people he knew in Suzhou City were all dissolute celebrities, and none of the orthodox scholars were willing to accept him as a student.
In the end, there was only the crazy Zhang Youyu who was willing to teach the Book of Changes and could be regarded as a master.
But as for Zhang Youyu's character, Lin Daguan was generally embarrassed to tell the outside world.
At this time, I heard Gu Xiancheng ask Lin Tailai clearly again: "Who did you learn from in Confucian classics?"
This time we will not talk about skills, but directly talk about classics.
Not because Mr. Gu is verbose, but because this is a very important issue.
Anyone who has read Journey to the West knows that before fighting monsters, you must find out where the monster is, and then you can decide whether to capture it alive or kill it directly.
Official Lin sighed and said helplessly: "Follow Mr. Zhang Youyu to study the Book of Changes."
Maybe you can turn around and leave without answering the teacher's origins, but that's not enough respect for the teacher.
But if his identity is discovered in the future and he is attacked as "ashamed of his master's sect", it will become a stain in his life.
Gu Xiancheng breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be this old madman who couldn't pass the national examination.
Gao Panlong finally waited for the opportunity and immediately said: "It turns out to be this ugly scholar."
This is the reason why Lin Daguan doesn't want to mention the sect.
As a plastic student, Lin Tailai had to defend himself in public, but he was not in a hurry to scold Gao Panlong. He just said:
"Young and old men are innocent and innocent, and their hearts are much purer than those who are enthusiastic about political affairs."
Everyone didn't feel much after listening to it, mainly because they didn't specifically refer to the person who was "enthusiastic about political affairs."
However, Lin Daguan said to Gu Xiancheng without hesitation: "I heard that Mr. Gu wrote more than ten letters to Shen Shoufu. His spirit is commendable!"
Mist grass! Gu Xiancheng was surprised. How did the man named Lin know about this? Even the specific numbers are quite different.
Then he immediately explained: "I am just persuading Prime Minister Shen, as the chief minister, to be brave enough to take on the responsibility and correct the imperial court. I have no other intention."
Lin Daguan praised: "Mr. Gu is really enthusiastic about political affairs. He is the official in charge and cares about the heart of the chief minister."
Everyone felt that it was very harsh, and the good words came out of Lin Sheng's mouth, which made them feel uncomfortable.
Gao Panlong responded: "A scholar takes the world as his own responsibility, and Mr. Jingyang is really a role model for our generation.
It is always more useful than those ugly people who pass the market in enchanting clothes, pretend to be crazy, and live in a state of intoxication. "
Of course, Lin Tailai would not be stupid enough to argue directly with others about whether Zhang Yousu was a pervert or not. There was no need to argue.
He only knew how to move the world, and said: "You are right! In fact, I also admire Mr. Gu very much!
Mr. Gu's mentality of taking the world as his own responsibility is worth studying, so that we can learn to emulate it.
For example, why did Mr. Gu take three years of leave to return to his hometown to give lectures?
Do you feel that you are too old to be in charge, and that there is no future in taking the orthodox path of officialdom?
In fact, I think that maybe we can try another path.
For example, cultivating loyal believers in the name of giving lectures, and then constantly using the distinction between good and evil to gather people's hearts and purge the disloyal people.
After it snowballs into momentum, we can unite as one to hold the moral high ground, manipulate public opinion, and become the prime minister of the people to influence the government."
When some people heard this, they couldn't help but raise their heads in confusion and look at Mr. Gu on the platform.
Do the heroes think the same way?
"Cough cough cough!" Gu Xiancheng suddenly coughed violently.
Lin Sheng could not be allowed to talk any more, and then Gu Xiancheng forcefully changed the topic and said: "I am not a saint, and my thoughts and intentions are not worth studying!
The original intention of us gathering here today is to discuss the scriptures and their meanings, and don’t go too far off topic! "
Then he asked: "Does Lin Sheng have any insights into the treatment of the Yijing?"
Gu Xiancheng has been focusing on the study of the Yi Jing and the Spring and Autumn Period in recent years, and his attainments are very outstanding, so he dares to talk about the Yi Jing.
Anyway, it is better to talk about the meaning of the scriptures than to talk about your own thoughts.
Lin Tailai said casually: "I had a question about the Book of Changes back then, but it has never been answered."
Gu Xiancheng said: "What's the question?"
Lin Tailai asked: "The original text of the Book of Changes says that the hexagrams are linked, the images are like images, and the lines are effective.
Just looking at the literal meaning of these words, what do they mean? "
Gu Xiancheng smiled slightly. Lin Tailai probably wanted to use the opportunity of asking questions to make things difficult for him in Confucian classics, so he found a few almost meaningless words that were difficult to interpret.
But Mr. Gu still has a lot of skills. As long as it is serious debate, he will not be afraid.
This is your own strength! After Gu Xiancheng pondered for a moment, he began to answer:
"The hexagram means hanging. Hanging means hanging, and its symbolic meaning is."
"Wait!" Lin Tailai suddenly interrupted Gu Xiancheng, and then took out a booklet from his arms.
Then Lin Tailai lowered his head, flipped through the pages, and finally stopped on a certain page.
Lin Tailai raised his head again and said very sincerely: "The book in my hand is Mr. Zhang Youyu's Yili experience.
It also involves those few sentences. I would like to listen to Mr. Gu and make a reference for Mr. Gu’s lectures. "
What else can Gu Xiancheng, who is a scholar, say? Can we still prevent others from expressing their opinions?
Then everyone heard Lin Tailai holding the book and reading:
"The hexagrams are separated from actions if they are not based on the handle; the images are separated from the body if they are not used; the lines are separated from the words.
The hexagrams are inactive, the images are formless, the lines are wordless, and the cover is all Tai Chi.
And the hexagrams are added with the hexagrams, the images are added with the hexagrams, and the lines are added with the hexagrams. This is Ming Xue.
Then from forgetting to forgetting, from images to forgetting images, from effects to forgetting effects, from learning to attaining. "
After finishing reading, Lin Tailai closed the book and said, "This is the ugly theory of Gao Panlong. Can you refute it?"
Gu Xiancheng was stunned and speechless. He wanted to say something, but couldn't for a while.
Because this explanation is too subtle! With Pearl in front of you, no matter how you interpret it, it's like showing off your humiliation.
This Lin Sheng didn't ask questions sincerely, but he didn't want to deliberately make things difficult for others, or he just wanted to ask and answer questions for himself!
From the beginning to the end, I never gave myself a chance to show off, so I just kept teasing people!
Lin Tailai looked around and muttered loudly: "I'm not good at martial arts, I'm not good at mental skills, and I'm not good at academics!
What a huge disappointment! You’re gone, it’s better to go back! "
The pretense is over, how long will it take if I don’t run away?
But the local scholars in the audience unitedly surrounded Lin Tailai, not wanting to let him go and ruin the situation.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise from the direction of the gate, and ten or twenty people suddenly poured in.
The first person pointed at Lin Tailai and shouted: "He's still there, don't let him escape!"
People who know the situation better will understand immediately when they see this battle.
This is after the Gao family members were beaten just now, the reinforcements came to take revenge!
Therefore, the local scholars had a tacit understanding to make way for the thugs to rush over.
Since he is stubborn, he has no choice but to kill Shaozhengmao.
The Zhang brothers, each carrying a skin bag, could no longer watch the fun and quickly moved to Lin Tailai's side.
Lin Tailai looked at the thugs rushing over and shouted excitedly: "If the scholars in Wuxi County cannot debate scriptures, they will be beaten!"
Everyone: "."
Mr. Lin, is your reaction a bit abnormal? Don't you know how to write the word "death"?
Finally, some local scholars couldn't bear it anymore and directly punched Lin Tailai.
But Lin Tailai quickly dodged it, and then at some point, two iron whips appeared in his hand.
With a flick of his hand, he immediately swept away a large number of people in the crowd!
At that moment, all the scholars were enraged. How dare you, a foreigner, resist and take action!
So Lin Daguan, with the Zhang brothers as cover, skillfully formed a three-and-three formation and rushed to the gate of the county school.
Fighting and escaping at the same time, he knocked down dozens of people along the way, most of them were scholars, and finally broke out of the gate of the county school.
After standing on the street outside the door, Lin Daguan began to shout again:
"Wuxi scholars! Debating scriptures is not as good as it is! Colluding with the Gao family to beat people! I, Suzhou Linsheng, refuse to accept it!"
Asking for a monthly ticket! Check your pockets to see if you have any more!
