Chapter Fourteen: The Arrival of Brother Taiji Zhenwu
"Stop! What are you doing?!" Just when the gangsters were about to reach Xie Xin, a voice not far away shouted.
Everyone stopped and turned to look over.
But it was Xie Kui who rushed out after being reported by his disciples.
"What are you doing? Xie Shen, Xie Xin is your clan brother! We are all from the Xie family, so it's fine if we don't work together. Doesn't this kind of oppression chill the hearts of the other clan members?!" Although Xie Kui still doesn't understand.
What happened, but he still knew Xie Shen's character.
"Third uncle, thanks to Xin's wealth, he suddenly got back a group of rare horses. I suspect that he got them from theft, so I just plan to detain them for interrogation. If he is really innocent, he will naturally let them go.
He." Xie Shen still showed some respect for this uncle who was a tutor.
"Hmph, that's nice to say! I have already stated before that this horse was a gift from my sworn brother Gongsun Sheng. He invited me and him to go to western Liaoning that day. In order to give me a transportation tool, he specially gave this horse to me!
I have said this repeatedly, but you intend to be greedy and maliciously slander and frame me, so I want to ask you what your intentions are and whether you still have the law in your heart!" Xie Xin replied angrily.
After being an otaku for so many years, his state of mind has not improved, but has regressed a lot. Now, he is the most intolerant of others insulting his personality.
"Good thank you letter. Just what you said, I can use the name of the Muwu family to give you family law! Give it to me and take him to the ancestral hall to practice family law!" Xie Shen was also very angry.
How could he, who was running rampant in the Xie family village, tolerate others, especially the bastards from the Xie family's side branches, being so rampant?!
"You all stop it!" Xie Kui was also angry. Xie Shen, a dandy, was spoiled by his parents and actually dared to ignore his clan uncle.
Indeed, Xie Shen was ignoring Xie Kui's existence at this moment.
To be precise, if you take it too seriously, you won't have a horse to ride on.
If you don't take such a good horse today, who knows if that guy will sell it or kill it another day?
The other ruffians named Xie thought that they had Xie Shen's support and could not find them if anything happened, so they naturally gave priority to Xie Shen's orders.
But seeing them getting closer and closer to Xie Xin, Xie Xin showed no sign of fear.
On the contrary, he is still a little happy?
"After practicing for so long, it's time to test your power! I thank Xin, but I can't be a loser for the rest of my life!" Xie Xin muttered in a low voice, but the next second he flew out.
A Tai Chi single whip, combined with internal force, knocked the gangster directly in front of him away; then a push hand caused two gangsters flanking him to collide together; and finally, a white crane spread its wings and beat a weaker gangster until he suffered internal injuries and vomited blood.
With just one confrontation, the four gangsters were beaten until they could not stand up, and the other gangsters were naturally frightened.
Not to mention them, even Xie Kui and Xie Shen were looking at each other in shock at this moment.
"Xie Xin, what kind of trick are you doing?! I've seen Huangjiacun's martial arts, but nothing like this!" Xie Shen asked with a trembling voice.
At this moment, he understood that although Xie Xin was still a poor bastard, he was already aggressive. With his current strength, he was not something that his subordinates could deal with. He needed the militia controlled by his elder brother to deal with him.
"You don't care what moves I use, as long as they can defeat the enemy, they are good moves!" Xie Xin said lightly.
"Okay, that's it for now!" Seeing that the two parties had separated, Xie Kui quickly walked to Xie Xin.
At this moment, even if Xie Shen wanted to take action again, he had to worry about accidentally injuring Xie Kui.
"Thank you, Xie Shen took the initiative this time, so I won't say anything to you.
But you have to know that the most trustworthy people in this world are definitely not outsiders, but the clan members. No matter what you want to do, only the clan members can truly support you and truly think about you.
Never estrange your relationship with your family, because this will cause you to lose a place that can give you comfort and protection when you are wandering around.
Let's forget about today's matters. In three days, I will take my disciples and go over to your place to have academic exchanges with you. Let's talk about anything at that time!" Xie Kui said earnestly.
"Okay, I'm looking forward to your arrival, Third Uncle!" Xie Xin nodded, quickly mounted his horse and drifted away.
"Uncle Third, I missed that horse. I'm afraid it will be difficult to get it in the future!" Xie Shen looked aggrieved, like a prostitute who had been used but the customer left without paying.
"You don't know what kind of character Xie Xin is? Since it is said that it was given by his brother, then it is naturally given by his brother.
You have to know that his brothers are descendants of the Gongsun family in Liaoxi. Compared with them, our Xie family is not enough to fill the teeth of others! But if we use the letter of thanks to establish a relationship with them, it will not be easy to get many troops and horses in the future.
thing?
You boy, look at things further from now on. Do you understand that giving up a group of top-quality horses for a not-so-high-quality Youzhou horse is called a huge loss?!" Xie Kui cursed with hatred.
Although Xie Shen was said to be a dandy and lustful, at least he was not stupid. He felt unhappy being scolded by Xie Kui, but he did feel that Xie Kui's words made sense.
It's just that he has a tough mouth, and even now he still complains: "But what if he has nothing to do with the Gongsun family, but that horse really belongs to someone else?"
"Nothing goes wrong. I heard from your second brother, who is the chief clerk, that a team from the Gongsun family in western Liaoning recently entered Wancheng to stay, and even sent people to escape to find out where Huangjia Village is.
If I'm not mistaken, maybe they came here just to get a letter of thanks.
If Xie Xin is really related to Gongsun Sheng by then, we will take the opportunity to establish a relationship. If there is no relationship, the Gongsun family will naturally find trouble with Xie Xin. Then we will spend some money to buy the horse.
.
Do you know why I made an appointment with him in three days? Because according to the estimated distance, the Gongsun family's team will arrive at Huangjia Village in three days!" Xie Kui sighed and slowly said to him.
"Well, let's see how things get better in three days!" After hearing Xie Kui's words, Xie Shen no longer had any worries. He called his brothers with a smile and went to find a place to have fun.
Seeing Xie Shen's appearance, Xie Kui could only helplessly shake his head.
After Xie Xin returned to the private school, he did not tell what happened today. He just announced that the students from Xie Family School would come back in three days to have a chat with everyone, and then continued to do whatever they were supposed to do.
It's just that there is no airtight wall in the world. The next day, Xie Xin's story of defeating four Xie family villagers with one person's power reached the ears of Xie's mother.
Xie's mother didn't say anything. Her son was older and it was hard for her to say anything.
Only Xie Yi and Bian Linglong surrounded Xie Xin, asking him to tell in detail what happened that day.
Xie Xin finally couldn't defeat them and told the truth.
"Brother, next time you go to Xiejia Village, remember to take my younger brother with you! Whoever dares to beat you, I'll beat him until his mother doesn't recognize him!" Xie Yi immediately made his stance clear.
Bian Linglong seemed to want this too, but she also knew that she had a special status, so she could only stand silently behind Xie Xin to show her position.
Mother Xie still didn't say anything, but frowned.
Perhaps like Xie Kui, she is also worried that Xie Xin and the family are at loggerheads, and if something happens in the future, the family will not take care of it.
Xie Xin, however, had no intention of repairing anything. He just went to class and practiced martial arts.
But after the previous battle, Xie Xin became more diligent in practicing martial arts.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
Xie's private school is ready to welcome guests, but the first ones to arrive are not students from Xie's school.
"Brother, brother is here to see you!" A familiar voice came from outside.
Xie Xin heard it quickly and ran out quickly. He looked at the young man at the front and said with a smile: "Brother, why are you here?! Come on, don't stand outside, come inside and sit down!"
The visitor was none other than Gongsun Sheng, who was left behind by Xie Xin in Luoyang. At this moment, he had led the soldiers of the Gongsun family and after many inquiries, they arrived in front of Xie Xin's house.
"Brother, you left without saying goodbye. I thought something big happened to you and was worried that you wouldn't be able to handle it, so naturally I brought my troops over to help!" Gongsun Sheng said with a smile.
After a simple arrangement, Gongsun Sheng followed the letter of thanks and entered the staff room, where he usually also made a guest appearance as the reception room.
"Brother, why did you open this private school without saying a word? With your talent, if you can follow your brother to Liaoxi, I can still get you a position as the bookkeeper!" The two of them sat down.
Afterwards, Gongsun Sheng asked unhappily.
"Brother, I know how much talent I have. Even if it's not much, it's only half a bucket of water. If I directly hold a public office, I'm afraid I will miss my brother's affairs." Xie Xin said apologetically.
"My brother's memory has not recovered yet?" Gongsun Sheng frowned.
"Although I have tried, there is still no improvement." Xie Xin replied with a wry smile.
"I originally wanted to take you, brother, to Liaoxi to enjoy the blessings, but now, brother, you refuse. What are you asking me to do? You know, we brothers made an oath at the beginning, saying that we would share blessings and suffer hardships together.
Yes!" Gongsun Sheng was a little embarrassed at the moment.
Even if Xie Xin doesn't remember anything, he is still his sworn brother. Moreover, he still suffered from amnesia because of himself, so it is even more responsible for him to take care of him for the rest of his life.
"My brother is living well here. If he has time in the future, he can go to Liaoxi to visit him. And if he has time, he can also come and get together with his brother.
The younger brother has figured it out. If he joins the officialdom at his own level, the most he can do is add a drop of blood to the court. But if I train thousands of disciples, then it will add thousands of drops of blood to the court. That is how it works.
It’s a good thing that the work goes to the country and benefits the future!” Xie Xin patted Gongsun Sheng’s hand and comforted him with a smile.
"Well, you are indeed my brother!" After hearing Xie Xin's speech, Gongsun Sheng couldn't help but praise him.
I never thought that a poor scholar could have such a grand ideal. After hearing this, I had no idea of taking him to western Liaoning.
No, it's not that he didn't, but if he was taken to Liaoxi, for some reason, he would feel guilty.
"Since my brother has such an ideal, it's not easy for him to deprive him of it. Just here are books for teaching..." I wanted to ask if I could help collect some, but suddenly I saw a copy of "The Thousand-Character Essay" on the desk.
, "This book is..." As a Tai student, he has many books to read, so he is naturally very interested in books he has never read.
"This is an enlightenment book written by my younger brother, and there is also a "Three Character Classic"." Xie Xin did not blush and directly took over the copyright.
Gongsun Sheng nodded to express his understanding, then found the "Three Character Classic" and started reading it together with the "Thousand Character Classic".
About ten minutes later, he closed the volume and said excitedly to Xie Xin: "Not to mention how many children my brother will train in the future, but with these two books, my brother has already contributed to the country and benefited the future!"
"It's just two enlightenment books, nothing worthy of praise." Xie Xin, a big thief in the literary world, was obviously a little embarrassed by Gongsun Sheng's excited eyes.
"No, no! These two books are simply rare enlightenment gifts for scholars all over the world! Can my brother make a copy and take it back to Liaoxi?" Gongsun Sheng was still so excited.
"You are the elder brother and I am the younger brother. Why do we have to worry about this?" Naturally, I would not refuse to give him a letter of thanks.
"So, for my brother's sake, I have thanked my younger brother Gongsun's family!" Gongsun Sheng immediately bowed to Xie Xin.
The two are brothers, but now Gongsun Sheng does not represent an individual, but the Gongsun family in Liaoxi, so the etiquette must be complete.
"Brother, please don't do this. Isn't this embarrassing me, brother?!" Xie Xin felt a little at a loss.
"By the way, does my brother have other copies of these two books?" Gongsun Sheng suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but ask the thank you letter.
"That's true. In order to prepare for the increase in student unions next year, I asked students to help me copy a few more books in the past two days." Xie Xin nodded and moved out a few boxes full of volumes.
"Let me give you twenty troops. I want everyone in the Han Dynasty to know that there is a famous scholar in Nanyang named Xie Xin and his courtesy name is Zishou!" Gongsun Sheng said excitedly.
"You don't have to be like this... How can I be embarrassed to call my brother like this..." Xie Xin is an otaku after all, but he is very embarrassed to be the center of attention.
"My brother, what you said is wrong. Since there is such a good book, it will naturally benefit the scholars of the world. But if the scholars of the world know this book, but do not know the author, and let the villain take it as their own,
Isn't this a brother's loss?" Gongsun Sheng complained.
"That's true. If so, I'll help my brother!" Xie Xin also felt that Gongsun Sheng's words made sense.
Just when I heard Gongsun Sheng mention the word "villain", my face couldn't help but turn red.
"Brothers, why do you need to be so polite?!" Gongsun Sheng smiled and patted Xie Xin on the shoulder.
"By the way, it's convenient for me this time. Why don't you stay with me for a few days?" Xie Xin thought for a while and extended an invitation to Gongsun Sheng.
"That's fine, you and I haven't had enough chats in Luoyang, so now we're getting together!" Gongsun Sheng happily agreed.
At this time, Xie Yi knocked on the door and walked in with Xie Xin's permission.
"What's wrong?" Xie Xin asked.
"Brother, the students from the Xie Family School have arrived!" Xie Yi whispered.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce my brother! This is my brother Xie Yi, who is studying in the school now! His qualifications are quite good, and I'm afraid his achievements in the future will not be as good as mine!" Xie Xin introduced to Gongsun Sheng.
Then he turned around and said to Xie Yi: "This is Gongsun Sheng, my adopted sworn brother in Luoyang. From now on, you can just call him Brother Gongsun or Brother Sheng."
"Brother Gongsun!" Xie Yi thought for a while, and it would be better to call him Brother Gongsun. After all, the two parties are not very familiar with each other.
"Thank you, little brother, it's our first time meeting you!" Gongsun Sheng smiled and nodded.
Then he turned to Xie Xin and asked, "What did the little brother say before?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I had an appointment with students from the Xie Family School before, and I came here today to have some academic exchanges with the students. I never thought that my brother would be here." Xie Xin explained with a smile.
"Is that so? Why don't we go out together and take a look at this academic exchange?" Gongsun Sheng couldn't help but become interested after hearing this.
"That's fine, brother, please don't think that the level of communication this time is too low! You know, my disciples can only read the "Thousand Character Essay" in full." Xie Xin couldn't help but give Gongsun Sheng a vaccination first.
.
"It's okay, it's okay. I remember back then, when you and I didn't know how to read?" Gongsun Sheng was also open-minded.
