Chapter 63 Tit for tat
After Mo Qiu sent Qin Lisheng over, he had a brief chat with him and then left in a hurry.
The Mohist School had grown a lot, and there were as many as 3,000 Mohists, which was more than one or two times stronger than before he went to Yuzhou to risk his life. But he was not relaxed at all, and the burden on him became even heavier.
From the moment we open our eyes every day, there are countless things to do.
There is no priority, it just depends on which one can save more people.
There are more and more Mohists, but they are becoming less and less enough.
How many Mohists are needed to make up for the suffering in this world? Mo Qiu didn't know the answer. He only knew that some things had to be done by someone.
That's all.
Watching the tall and burly figure walking away in a hurry, Gu Dan's expression was quite complicated.
I wanted to be a candle by the river, knowing its own brightness and darkness. But the bright moon was beside me, and my afterglow finally stained me.
Looking at Qin Lisheng and Xun Ke who were still arguing, Gu Dan shook his head gently again.
Now is not the time.
Ever since Qin Lisheng came to this small courtyard, the whole courtyard has become more lively.
Because he had nothing to do, he would provoke Xun Ke. Although Xun Ke was young, he was well-read. How could he tolerate such humiliation?
Besides, we are all disciples of Master Mo, so who is afraid of whom? If you don't agree, let's fight! At first, it was just a verbal battle. Since Qin Lisheng found that Xun Ke was not very interested in martial arts, he would occasionally pretend to be defeated during the verbal battle, and when he was particularly dissatisfied, he would directly beat Xun Ke.
Xun Ke was only a teenager, how could he bear such humiliation? Apart from other things, he couldn't win in theory, but was beaten to the ground in the end? How could a gentleman bear such humiliation! From then on, he stopped reading books and began to practice martial arts diligently.
"If you keep teasing me like this, I'm afraid he'll secretly get up in the middle of the night and add a few more holes to your body."
Sitting by the window, holding the restless Cang in his arms, Gu Dan took a few leisurely glances out the window.
Xun Ke was holding a stone lock that was half a person's height, raising it up and putting it down again. Even though his clothes were soaked with sweat, he was unwilling to let go.
"Ha ha."
Qin Lisheng sat opposite Gu Dan, eating an orange slice in his hand, with his left knee pressed against his right leg, and said nonchalantly, "If he can beat me, then he has the ability."
"He hasn't even read books in recent days." Gu Dan was also amazed.
It can only be said that there is always someone who can defeat him. Qin Lisheng can always easily make Xun Ke go crazy, but it is hard to say whether he can win or not, and he can never defeat him.
If this continues, the child will either become independent and strong-willed, or be ruined.
"What book are you reading?"
Qin Lisheng's face wrinkled up because of the sourness of the orange, and he said with bared teeth: "How much truth do you have to have to be a saint? Don't persuade others with weak words, and don't argue with reason when you are humble. Now is not a good time to study, it's better to learn martial arts."
Gu Dan glanced at him in surprise.
Qin Lisheng is different from Moqiu and Gong Shangguo.
Moqiu has great love for all people in the world and is willing to go through fire and water for them; Gong Shangguo is more like a gentleman, gentle as jade and full of benevolence.
Only Qin Lisheng had a ruffian air about him. If he changed his clothes and was thrown into a mountain den, anyone who saw him would think that this guy was not a good person. They didn't know how he got mixed up with the Mohist school.
But he has a lot of lofty principles in his mouth, no wonder he made Xun Ke so angry.
When Xun Ke in the courtyard finally ran out of energy and put down the stone lock to rest for a while, Qin Lisheng threw the half-eaten orange on the table and cursed, "It tastes terrible."
Then he quickly ran to Xun Ke's side, and with a slight raise of his eyebrows, a disgusting expression vividly appeared on his face, "Hey, Master Xun, you can't do it anymore? Didn't you say you had to do it 500 times? How about I wipe off the 100 for you?"
"You"
Xun Ke, who was gasping for breath, opened his eyes wide and felt that the man's face was extremely hateful.
"It's okay. After all, we are from the same school. I am of course willing to forgive my little brother's slight offense. After all, I am not a bad person!" Qin Lisheng walked over with a smile, stretched out a hand and gently patted his head, and rubbed it.
At first glance, the scene can only be described as brotherly and obedient.
Xun Ke almost bit his silver teeth to pieces.
How can there be such a mean person in the world!!! "Get out of the way, who said I can't do it 500 times?"
Xun Ke, who was already exhausted, suddenly became furious and, with strength coming from nowhere, he suddenly lifted the stone lock.
It almost hit Qin Lisheng's head.
"Really? Then I have to keep an eye on you. We agreed on 500. Not even one less~"
Qin Lisheng didn't take it seriously, he walked to the stone pillar and sat down comfortably, pointing at Jiangshan and Bibi Lailai: "Alas, this one is not high enough! You will run out of strength after a few lifts. Lift it, don't shake it, or your arm will be broken! This one is good, try again"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Gu Dan, who was sitting by the window, fell into deep thought.
Or maybe we should lock the door of Xun Ke's room at night. "Gu Dan!"
Gu Dan, who was enjoying the show, was awakened by a call and saw Andy Hui walking towards the gate of the courtyard.
"Uncle Xu, you're here?"
Leaving Cang to be taken care of by Qin Lisheng, Gu Dan hurried over to meet him.
"This is the inner breath technique you requested. I have found it for you. Come with me to Prince Yu's Mansion first. There is news from Prince Yu's Mansion that Princess Ying may not have much time left."
After slapping the books in his hands on Gu Dan’s chest, Andy Hui said again.
"good."
Gu Dan took the books without saying anything. He had been informed of this matter a few days ago.
Prince Yu’s Mansion.
Prince Yu is not well-known among the people, but his mansion in the imperial capital is extremely large and luxurious.
The pavilions and towers are naturally carved with jade, there are gurgling water under the small bridge, there are rockery and gardens, and there are thousands of wind chimes hanging on the eaves. When a slight breeze blows, thousands of pleasant and light sounds are gently played.
There is no need to say much about the various rare and precious trees. Every courtyard looks just right, and it must have been designed by an expert.
Occasionally walking through the rockery, it was like a change of scenery on earth, with pleasant flowers and plants, or jagged rocks, pavilions standing in between, boats reflected in the lake, green rocks upside down, colorful Huachi, winding corridors, high eaves, each embracing the terrain, beautiful beyond words! Only by stepping into it in person can you understand why Emperor Zong Ming wanted to build the Wanshou Palace.
Even the prince has such a grand ceremony, how can the father be worse? No matter how expensive the imperial capital is, the princes and grandchildren of the emperor have no shortage of places to enjoy, and one person can occupy a mansion worth tens of millions.
If it weren't for the servants of Prince Yu's Mansion leading the way, someone with a poor sense of direction would have lost track of where they were after so many twists and turns.
Finally, when they arrived at the gate of a courtyard, the servant who led the way stopped and said respectfully: "The courtyard ahead is Princess Lin's. We need to wait for someone to report. Please wait for a moment."
