Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

In early summer, it rained and the sky cleared.The summer cicadas have not yet started their feast, but all kinds of fragrant flowers and plants have seized the rainy and hot seasons and rushed to bloom.

The school of Xun Family Studies has a semi-open design. There are no walls on the left and right sides of the classroom, only bamboo curtains and detachable wooden boards.During class, the bamboo curtains are rolled up, and the wooden boards are removed, so that light and cool breeze can pass through the classroom.This is sacrificing winter warmth for good lighting.

In the past, there should be a few cases and futons neatly arranged on the wooden floor, but today it is different.The desks for writing were removed and replaced with chessboards that looked like small square tables.17 lines are drawn horizontally and vertically on the chessboard, a total of 289 drop points.

"Today, we will learn Go. Go players are chess players." Wearing light-colored clothes, Xun Jing walked slowly between the children's seats to ensure that everyone could hear him clearly.He lectures at a relatively slow speed, and his cadence has the rhythmic beauty that the ancients loved.

Go was still in its infancy at this time, and most of the theoretical works were written by Eastern Han people who had died less than a hundred years ago or were still alive. It is a metaphor for gods and morality, black and white symbolize yin and yang, and the arrangement of chess pieces symbolizes stars... Therefore, playing chess is not only about wisdom, but also reflects a person's character and cultivation, and even peeps into the world, ancient and modern, and the principles of governance."

After Xun Jing finished explaining this theory, he returned to his seat directly in front of the classroom, sat upright, focused, and burned incense.

What he burns is the incense made by the Xun family.Sandalwood, ash, dragon, musk, borneol, orchid osmanthus, layer upon layer of aromas, clears the mind.

"Calm down one thing." Xun Jing's voice hovered between the beams and pillars like a bell.

The children sat upright in response, closing their eyes and resting their minds.

After the first incense burner is finished, the second kind of elegant incense is replaced.

"The second game."

So the elementary school students sat down in twos and started playing chess.There are also teaching assistants in the classroom who assist in teaching. Once someone has a dispute, they will step forward to stop it.

Because Cao Cao and Cao Sheng were taking Go lessons for the first time, Xun Jing took the lead in arranging them. "Have you ever learned Go?"

The twins looked at each other, then shook their heads vigorously.

"No hurry." He smiled, placed pieces on an empty chessboard himself, and explained the basic rules of Go to the twins.What is eye, what is air, what is point, what is flying, what is length, etc., and what is winning and what is losing.

"Learning to play chess, the fastest way is to play more games with others." Xun Jing finally said, "Ah Sheng plays the best with Ah You on weekdays, so let Ah You play with you. If Ah Cao, ask Ah Qi Come with you, how about it?"

Xun You and Xun Qi were originally playing the game, but in order to take care of their new classmates, they had to disrupt the half of the game, and they each changed their opponents and set up again.Therefore, Xun Qi was a little unhappy because he had the upper hand.

Xun You, on the other hand, had a good temper and cupped his hands: "Have A Sheng and A Cao never learned Go?"

Ah Sheng also bowed his hands to him: "Ayou, please be merciful, after listening to Mr. Shuci's speech, I don't think I will ever be able to learn Go in my life."

Xun You covered his mouth and smiled, he didn't believe Ah Sheng's nonsense.

The two sat down opposite each other, and gave way to each other for who would go first.In the end, the young Xun You took Bai Zi and went first.

The morning breeze is gentle, the dark fragrance floats, and the open school is full of crisp sounds of falling.

Xun You is the kind of magical child who is silly on the face and very tricky in chess.Ah Sheng played two sets with him, and each game was tighter than the other, but they lost both.

"Hey, I lost again." Ah Sheng had an "angry" expression on his face, "Ah You's belly is black."

Xun You continued to cover his mouth and smile: "You are just learning, you don't have any rules, and you have a lot of leisure time."

Ah Sheng covered his head: "I have a lot of ideas, but I can't use them. Well, that's it for today, it's time for lunch." She turned to look at Cao Cao at the next table.

Cao Cao and Xun Qi played fast chess. "Crackling" is like throwing a bomb, full of momentum.The smell of gunpowder surrounds the two of them.

Ah Sheng cautiously leaned over to watch, the game of chess had come to an end.She used the Go knowledge she had just learned to carefully count the number of chess pieces on both sides. "Hey, brother is going to win?"

Not a win.

Cao Cao won three pieces.

Xun Qi stood up abruptly: "What are you so proud of? It's only one round. You lost to me three rounds before!"

Cao Cao pursed his lips, his dark eyes seemed to suppress some emotion: "Then, come again?"

Xun Qi quit: "I don't. I, I, I... If it weren't for Mr. Shuci's order, I wouldn't play chess with you. I don't bother to play chess with you. What kind of eyes do you have? You look sinister and behave vulgarly. My father Tell me, the eunuch's family doesn't have a single good thing."

Excessive, this is a very serious slander.Xun Jing was the first to scold: "Ah Qi is rude!"

Ah Sheng also stood up, and said almost at the same time as Xun Jing: "The benevolent sees benevolence, and the wise sees wisdom. The sinister can feel the cold even in the sun, and the narrow-minded can find a cramped place in the wilderness. I Brother Chen Shi and Chen Zhonggong have praised you for their good manners, do you think you know people better than Chen Gong just because of the prejudice of your family status?"

Xun Qi blushed, couldn't say a word, glared at the Cao brothers and sisters, turned around and ran away.

Even Xun Jing, who was a teacher, was stunned for a moment.

Cao Cao kept silent all the time, but at this moment he stood up and ran away.

"Hey, brother." Ah Sheng only cared about paying respects to Xun Jing, and ran out with Cao Cao.Cao Cao has good physical fitness and runs fast. It took a lot of effort for Ah Sheng to catch up with him under the big tree at the entrance of the village.

"Hoo-hoo--" Ah Sheng panted while holding the trunk of the tree. It was a miracle that her shoes were still on her feet. "Brother—huh—brother."

"Ah Sheng, I am going to leave Yingyin."

"Eh?" Ah Sheng's head went blank for three seconds before she regained her ability to think. She spoke slowly while giving herself some comfort: "Brother, if it's because of Xun Qi's matter, there is no need. After all, short-sighted people are a minority. Like Ayou, don’t we get along very well? Since we have received the favor of our father and grandfather’s wealth and status, we naturally have to bear the reputation of eunuchs. This kind of prejudice will be borne until after we die. If now If you can't bear even small grievances, then what are your ideals and ambitions?"

"I'm not here for this. Xun Qi, I don't pay attention to it." Cao Cao stood upright in the midday sun, his tone so calm that Ah Sheng was startled, "Xun You is very good, and the Xun family's ethnology did not treat him harshly." Our place. However, it is not my ambition to learn from hermits in plain talk, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, burning incense and making tea, and the metaphysics of Huang Lao."

"It's not my ambition, it's for..."

"Asheng is for Xun's collection of books, I know it. But sorting out the classics, gathering the best of a hundred schools of thought, and becoming a great Confucian, it is enough for Asheng to do it. Asheng persuaded his father to come to Yingchuan for his own goal. Clarity, decisive action, is what I need to learn. I also have my own goals, where I want to go."

"Brother..." Ah Sheng's eyes were red, it was the first time she saw such a firm Cao Cao, so firm that she couldn't persuade her.

Cao Cao looked at the distant sky. "Yesterday, I received a letter from Lord Ran Ming. He is currently serving as the prefect in Wuwei, and he is quite leisurely. He said that he is willing to teach me from "Shangshu" and "Historical Records". The Zhang family is also a family, and I can meet the etiquette standards of Lord Ran Ming." That's enough. Besides, Wuwei is located at the border, so I'm going to train my soldiers there."

Cao Cao's soldiers are those young boys whose average age is less than 15 years old.

Ah Sheng's tears rolled down. According to this time, Cao Cao might have written to Zhang Huan before they entered school. "It turns out that brother has already planned it out, I don't know at all. Could it be that uncle sent the letter for brother?"

Cao Cao acquiesced: "Don't tell father just yet."

"Brother... take care, brother. Wuwei is an important town in the northwest, an important place for military strategists, and lives together with the Qiang people. Even if there is no big war, there will be small frictions. After all, brother is young and his strength has not yet matured. Don't be brave and fight with others. Please stay safe in everything. For yourself."

Cao Cao wiped his sister's tears away with his palm: "I know. Since I arrived in Yingchuan, have I ever fought with anyone?"

Ah Sheng recalled it, but there really wasn't one.They had suffered the most discrimination in Yingchuan since they were born, but Cao Cao, who was always like a bully, endured all of them. He didn't even get angry in private, but became restrained at an astonishing speed.Ah Sheng couldn't help crying again: "It was my negligence that made brother suffer."

"What stupid things are you talking about? I should take care of you. Now I want to let you alone in Xun's house. Don't scold me for dereliction of duty in your heart."

"I don't scold you, you think too much." How could I scold you, you have grown up.

At the same time, in the classroom of Xun Family Studies, the children had already left, but a man in his 30s was sitting in Cao Cao's position just now, watching the endgame while making calculations.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes.

"Sixth brother, how are you?" Xun Jing asked aloud.

"This son is bold and careful, with amazing courage, and will soar into the sky in troubled times."

As soon as this remark came out, a young man standing next to him was taken aback: "Does Uncle Liu think so highly of others?"

Known as the Sixth Uncle is the legendary Xun Shuang.Xun Shuang, courtesy name Ciming.The local people say that "the eight dragons of the Xun family are unparalleled in their kindness", which means that the sixth son Xun Shuang is the most outstanding one among the "eight dragons of the Xun family".He was only in his 30s and already had a very in-depth study of the Book of Changes.

Xun Shuang has a very majestic appearance, and when the corner of his mouth shows a smile that is not a smile, the original majesty becomes mysterious. "A Yue, I'm just telling the truth." He pointed to the chessboard, "This one can be the master, but you brothers are almost counselors, and the best are Wang Zuozhi. This is not a difference of wisdom. It’s the difference in temperament.”

Xun Yue was silent.

Xun Yan and Xun Chen showed curious expressions.

Xun You took a step forward at this time, pointing to the mess left by him and Cao Sheng next to him. "Uncle Ciming, let's look at the sunspots in this round."

"Oh, this is the one..." He was halfway through the calculation, and suddenly stopped, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were fixed on the chessboard.

"Can't figure it out." Xun Shuang said suddenly.

"What?" Everyone was surprised.

"Only looking at his thinking from the way of chess, he is self-contained and quite strange. But if I want to figure out the origin behind this strange idea..." Xun Shuang took out a bamboo stick and two copper coins from his cuff, and began to occupy Forget it, I calculated it several times and finally gave up:

"The secrets are unpredictable. The child prodigy is really extraordinary."

The author has something to say: Cao Cao ran to the border without seeing Xun Yu, Xun Yue and Xun Chen, a sad butterfly effect.

There are 17 moves in ancient Go, and Bai Zi moves first.Unlike modern 19 ways, Heizi goes first
