Liang Yundao couldn't believe his eyes. In the room, Guo Song was concentrating on writing, and he was writing very fast. Without more than ten years of calligraphy skills, it would have been impossible to write so fast.
There was a thick stack of writing next to it, and Liang Yundao could see a few words, which turned out to be in running script. The writing was extremely beautiful, even better than his own.
Liang Yundao was a little stunned. He had no idea that Guo Song could actually write and could write so well.
He took two steps back, walked down the steps, pondered for a moment, coughed heavily, and asked, "Did nephew Guo Xian rest?"
Guo Song was writing "Han Feizi" silently in his study. He was afraid that as time passed, he would gradually forget many things, so he would write silently when he had the opportunity. He not only practiced calligraphy, but also retrieved the memory of his previous life.
The pens, inks, paper and inkstones were all obtained from Liang Wu's study. Although the boy knew a few words, he didn't like to read. The four treasures of his study were just decorations.
Hearing a cough outside, Guo Song stood up and took a look. It turned out that the head of the family, Liang Yundao, was here. He quickly put down his pen and hurried out to greet him.
"My nephew is not here because he is here, so he will be welcomed from afar!"
Guo Song was still very grateful to Liang Yundao, who went through a lot of trouble to restore his household registration and even made a special trip to Mingsha County.
Liang Yundao smiled slightly, "I hope I didn't disturb you!"
"No interruption, Liang Shibo please come in and talk."
Guo Song invited Liang Yundao into his study. When Liang Yundao saw that Guo Song did not hide his calligraphy, he knew that he did not care about others knowing.
Liang Yundao pretended that he had just discovered something. He stepped forward and took a look. It turned out to be "Han Feizi. The Death March" written by Guo Song. He picked it up and read a few sentences:
“Those who are ambitious but have no regrets, who lead a country to chaos and multiply themselves, and who fail to realize that the resources within their territory are transferred to their neighbors and enemies, will perish.
A country that is small but does not feel humble, a country that is small but does not fear the strong, a country that is rude but bullies its big neighbors, a country that is greedy and clumsy in friendship will perish.
If the prince has been placed, and he marries a powerful enemy as his second wife, the prince will be in danger. If this is the case, the officials will be worried about him, and he may die.
Those who are timid and guard weakly, those who see the fleas but are soft-hearted and cowardly, know that there is something to be said, but those who are cut off and do not dare to do it will perish."
........
Liang Yundao was full of praise and said: "Good calligraphy, good calligraphy! It's unexpected that my nephew's calligraphy is so good!"
Guo Song said with a smile: "There are no years in the mountains. Master taught me since I was a child, but his writing was not good, which made Shibo laugh!"
Now that his master, Mu Zhenren, has transformed into a scapegoat, he can just leave everything to his master.
"Your master is indeed unique. Martial arts are becoming more and more popular. There are not many scholars nowadays. Your wise nephew is both civilized and martial, and he is a pillar of talent!"
Guo Song shook his head, "Lingzhou is stronger than Guo Song, like a crucian carp crossing a river. I am just a humble little Taoist priest in Kongtong Mountain. I am a mediocre person and dare not be praised by the uncle."
"My good nephew is too humble."
"Uncle, please sit down and talk. I'll make some tea for you!"
"No, I'll just say a few words and leave. You can sit down too!"
The two sat down, Liang Yundao stroked his beard and said: "The draw has just come out, we will play against Guojiabao tomorrow."
After saying that, Liang Yundao looked at Guo Song's expression and saw that his expression was calm. He was neither surprised nor pretending to be calm. Liang Yundao felt a little relieved and said with a smile: "Guo Jiabao is our old opponent. They are strong.
, although the foreign aid is from Lingzhou, he came from the capital and has been their foreign aid for three consecutive years, and his martial arts skills are very strong."
Guo Song didn't speak. He knew the purpose of Liang Yundao's coming. He listened quietly to Liang Yundao's words.
Liang Yundao thought for a while and then said: "If my nephew feels embarrassed tomorrow, he doesn't have to participate in the contest with the Guo family. In any case, my nephew helped the Liang family defeat the Ma family today. We will keep this favor in our hearts."
Guo Song shook his head, "Master, don't take this favor too seriously. The Liang family paid for me to be a foreign aid. I will definitely do my best for my employer. This is the most basic business ethics. The so-called being entrusted by others and loyal to others."
I don’t care who my opponent is. If I cared about the Guo family on the opposite side, I wouldn’t accept this foreign aid commission. Please don’t worry at all, head of the family.”
Although it was a bit hard to accept that Guo Song suddenly showed no mercy and only talked about business, Liang Yundao was very happy in his heart. This was another way for Guo Song to express his determination. He would not care if his opponent tomorrow was Guo Song.
Home.
"After all, the Guo family in Mingsha County is also a distant branch of the Guo family in Lingwu. Doesn't my nephew care at all?"
Guo Song pondered for a moment, "I won't hurt anyone tomorrow at most. If I do this, I think I have done my best to be benevolent and righteous."
Liang Yundao nodded, "With the words of a wise nephew, I feel relieved!"
He picked up the piece "Han Feizi" he had written and said with a smile: "Just give this piece to me! I like it very much."
"This is just me practicing calligraphy. If uncle likes it, I will write another one."
"Then I hope you will write another one, but I also want this one."
Liang Yundao laughed, said goodbye and left.
Guo Song sent Liang Yundao out of the yard. He was pacing back and forth in the yard. Tomorrow's opponent is actually the Guo family. I wonder if Guo Sheng will play?
At this time, footsteps were heard outside, and Liang Wu walked in and said with a smile: "I'm afraid you'll fall asleep, so hurry up to the inner hall and let's discuss tomorrow's tactics together."
Guo Song nodded. The Liang family was quite organized in doing things. The head of the family came to confirm his attitude first, and then invited him to discuss it to avoid embarrassment to both parties.
The two came to Sheyan Building, which is the main building of the Liang family. It covers an area of at least ten acres and is built on a 1.5-foot-high bluestone foundation. The building is five stories high. There are wells inside that lead directly to the ground, and a large amount of food is stored.
It's completely a military fortress.
Guo Song followed Liang Wu to the second floor, where the command center of Liangjiabao was brightly lit. Liang Huihe stood in front of a large table with dozens of clay figures placed on the table.
Guo Song walked to the table and his eyes suddenly lit up. There were ten little clay figurines arranged on the table, five in black and five in red. The names were written on the backs of the clay figurines. The tallest clay figurine in black with a gold belt wrote himself.
His name is Guo Song.
"Second uncle is arranging troops and formation!"
Liang Huihe smiled and said: "This was made this afternoon. It feels more practical. I will face Guojiabao tomorrow, so my nephew already knows about it!"
"My uncle has already told me that the Guo family's foreign aid is said to be very powerful."
Liang Huihe nodded, pointed at the clay figurine in red clothes and gold belt and said: "This man's name is Guo Chongqing. He is about twenty-four or five years old. He is from Lingzhou, but he comes from the capital. He is very skilled in martial arts. He has never been defeated in the past three years. He is also good at bow and arrow."
It’s five points.”
"His surname is also Guo?" Guo Song was a little surprised.
"His surname was not Guo originally, but he was the commander-in-chief Guo Ziyi's personal soldier and his pretend son, so he changed his surname to Guo."
Liang Wu also said from the side: "The Guo family basically relies on this foreign aid. I fought against this Guo Chongqing last year. I lost to him in the tenth move. His sword skills are very similar to the Ma family's foreign aid Wu Zheng.
It is simple, practical and very sharp. If you are hit by it, you will not be able to get up, but he is very measured in his attacks and has never really hurt anyone."
"How is Wu Zheng?" Guo Song suddenly asked.
Liang Huihe shook his head, "The Ma family put the responsibility for the failure on him. After the afternoon, I heard that they had a big quarrel. Wu Zheng should go back to the military camp."
Guo Song didn't ask any more. He walked around the little clay figurine and suddenly picked up a little red man, "Is this Guo Sheng?"
Liang Wu snorted and said: "He can participate only because Guo Shichang put pressure on Guo Zhi."
"You can't say that!"
Liang Huihe said unhappily: "We cannot underestimate the enemy. It is what it is. You will only mislead Guo Song when you speak with emotions like this."
Liang Wu also realized that he was a little emotional, so he had to add: "Guo Sheng's bow skills are not good. In the archery competition in the Shenjian Hall, he only got five points once, ranking in the middle and lower reaches, but his sword skills
He ranked second after me in the Shenjian Hall. He did not participate in the bow game this morning, but he participated in the sword game in the afternoon and was ranked fifth. However, he had no chance to play. The Guo family had three wins and one loss.
Won the sword game."
Guo Song nodded, "Second uncle, let's continue talking about the strength of the Guo family."
"This afternoon, Guo Chongqing ranked first and second, Guo Liangpai ranked third, Guo Jiang ranked fourth, and Guo Sheng ranked fifth. These four are not the Guo family's starting lineup.
, Guo Qiang must replace Guo Liang in the next game.
We all don’t know why Guo Zhi arranged for Guo Liang, a very weak newcomer, to participate in the competition. I guess it’s because Xujiabao is too weak and Guo Zhi wants to train the newcomers. Apart from Guo Liang, the other candidates are also of no concern.”
Guo Song raised his hand and said, "Second uncle, let me add one more thing. In the morning, my second uncle said that the results of the bow game will also be carried into the subsequent sword game. What does that mean?"
Liang Huihe explained with a smile: "Because there are seven companies entering the second round, one of them will have no opponent and will become a substitute. So which one will become a substitute? Generally, the one with the lowest score in the game is a substitute. At present, it seems that Jiangjiabao is the substitute.
, its game score is 105, it will be a substitute and will have a blank round tomorrow.
Then the other six companies will compete fiercely in the second round tomorrow morning. The winners of the three companies will be the first to enter the top four. The three eliminated companies and the alternate Jiang family will have another two rounds of fierce battles to compete for the last spot in the top four. This is also called resurrection shortlisting. Then the top three companies will compete.
The four will fight for two more rounds to compete for the final leader, you understand!"
"I see!"
Guo Song smiled and nodded, "I won't interrupt the second uncle anymore. The second uncle will continue to explain tomorrow's troop deployment arrangements!"
After repeated discussions, they unanimously decided that against Guojiabao, Liangjiabao would continue to use the same tactics as against Majia, with Guo Song playing the first and third games, Liang Wen the second, and Liang Wu taking charge of the fourth and fifth games.
On the field, Liang Cang and Liang Juer were arranged as candidates.
Just as the Liang family was arranging their troops, a quarrel broke out within the Guo family.
Guo Zhi couldn't hold back the anger in his heart. He held the table and said to his father Guo Yangchun: "Father, we must hold a family meeting in the ancestral hall to let everyone in the family know about this. The best son of the Guo family was actually used by him.
He used despicable means to drive out the Guo family, and he should bear full responsibility for this!"
Guo Yangchun is about sixty years old, with a slender face and a pair of long and thin eyes that are particularly distinctive. Faced with his son's excitement, Guo Yangchun behaved extremely calmly.
"Don't take this matter so seriously. The Guo family is not supported by one person. It is everyone in the family who supports the Guo family. Without Guo Song, the family will still function, but without Guo Shichang, the family will collapse.
Which one is more important or less important, I know very well in my heart!"
"Father, I am not referring specifically to the matter of Guo Song, but the bad influence that their father and son brought to the Guo family. They used despicable and shameless methods to drive away outstanding children, while the arrogant and arrogant children stood high and let the children of other families
What do you think? Where is the future of the Guo family?"
"You are too extreme. Every family has mediocre people. You can't expect every family member to be as outstanding as Guo Song. That is unrealistic. I admit that Guo Shichang is a little selfish, but have you ever thought about it, if I
What will be the consequences of pursuing this matter in the family ancestral hall?"
Guo Yangchun stared at his son sternly and said coldly: "It will cause the family to split. The scene where the Guo family split from Mingsha County seventy years ago will happen again, and the Guo family will completely decline."
"But father, if you don't pull out the weeds in a wheat field and let them grow wildly, it will destroy the wheat field. Only by pulling out the weeds can the real wheat seedlings thrive."
Guo Yangchun sighed softly, "I'm afraid if we pull out the weeds, there won't be a few wheat seedlings left in the wheat field!"
Guo Zhi was silent for a moment, and Guo Yangchun patted him on the shoulder gently, "When you become the head of the family in the future, you will understand that the prosperity of the family lies in unity, and the strength of the family lies in the whole body. You should prepare well for tomorrow's competition. Don't worry about it anymore."
