Chapter 35: "One Eye"


Xue Tui, a native of Shaoxing, Zhejiang.He has been intelligent since he was a child, he knew how to read at the age of three, wrote poems at the age of five, wrote chapters at the age of ten, and was admitted to the Juren at the age of twelve.What is the concept of lifting people in the middle of the day?

If you want to make an analogy, it is roughly the current 985......

In other words, he was already admitted to a prestigious university when we were just in junior high school.However, it is still the same sentence......

The world is unpredictable.Before the age of thirty, Xue Tui went to the Spring Festival five times, but as a result, he was the champion, and even the nomination for the apricot list was nothing.As he got older, he failed more and more times, and the voices of praise and envy around him gradually turned into ridicule and ridicule.Generally speaking, if a person has not been pregnant for a long time, his personality is easily distorted; After all, there are a few people who can adjust their mentality, and Xue Tui is obviously not among them.His personality began to become obsessive, and he became estranged from his former friends......

He stayed closed all day long, studied hard day and night, until he was thirty years old, and he made up his mind to go to the capital again to take the final examination.Who knows, this time......

He still missed.And when he returned home, he found that in the few months when he went to Beijing to take the exam, his parents had contracted a sudden illness and died; His wife did not write to him so as not to disturb him about the exam.The double blow of Luodi and bereavement made Xue Tui slump and he became seriously ill.After recovering from his illness, he remained at home for another three years......

During this period, his family's money was gradually emptied.No way, people, you have to eat; If you want to eat, you have to find a way to go out and earn a living.But Xue Tui didn't know anything except Wuwen and ink, and he couldn't do any physical work.So he thought: I'm a dignified master, it's no problem to go to the county to be a master, right?

There is a problem, there is a big problem......

Who are you, Xue Tui?

The "prodigy" in the township, from childhood to adulthood, is what other parents call "other people's children", so do you think how many scholars in the township hate you?

As for the scholars, most of the families are rich and powerful, maybe there are officials in the ancestors of their families, and maybe some "poor students" at the same level as Xue Tui are now officials themselves......

Can those people give you Xue Tui a good look?

After more than a month, after finding a lot of people, trusting a lot of relationships, and exhausting the last bit of silver, Xue Tui, who had touched a gray nose, finally understood one thing: he couldn't stay in his hometown.In order to support himself, his wife and children, Xue Tui had no choice but to sell his ancestral property, drag his family with him, and go to another country; After several tosses, I came to Luoyang.It was here that he met the noble man in his life, that is, the boss of this non-return building, who is this boss......

Let's talk about it later, let's talk about Xue Tui first.Xue Tui, who first arrived in Luoyang, made a living selling calligraphy and paintings in the market, and his business was not good, and there were often gangsters who came to the door to find fault and blackmail, and sometimes he couldn't earn back a penny for several days.That year, their family was almost all supported by his wife's meager income from laundry and sewing.At that time, Xue Tui often thought: His wife used to be the best lady in his family, but now he has fallen to this point, he is really sorry for others.It was also during those most difficult days that Xue Tui's personality had another transformation - he became sleek.Since her wife, a woman who had not even washed a bowl before the age of twenty-five, was now able to work until her hands were full of mouths and calluses, why couldn't he Xue Tui lose his costly pride and self-esteem?

It was from then on that he began to write some floating poems and beautiful essays that he found vulgar in the past, and painted some spring palace beauties that were more in line with the public's aesthetics......

He gave up his personal pursuits and put his family's quality of life first, using this as motivation to entertain his talents.It wasn't until one day that he was favored by the boss of the non-return building and invited him to come here to be the guest of the "Zhixian Pavilion", and that kind of days came to an end.It is not difficult to see from the experience of Xue Tui for most of his life that he is not an unsophisticated sour and rotten literati; Although there is a proud side of his character, he can also retreat in a roundabout way on appropriate occasions.To sum it up in a sentence that is more popular now-the old yin and yang people.At the moment, his "easy as a hand" to Huang Donglai and Sun Yihuan is undoubtedly putting on a high hat and a secret cover for these two, so that even if he comes out of the whole super problem for a while, the other party will not be able to make excuses.Of course, Sun and Huang are not so easy to fool......

As far as your Xue Tui's ability to arch fire, compared with Sun Yi, it is a big deal.Huang Donglai was arched by Brother Sun all day long, can you still see what you Xue Tui wants to do at the moment?"

Huh......

It's hard to say. ”After thinking about it for a while, Huang Donglai responded with a smile, "We still have to see what Mr.

Xue has before we can make a judgment." ”"Hah!"

Sun Yihuan, who had just shown his face once, was proud at this time, and when he heard this, he touched Huang Donglai's arm with his elbow and said with a smile, "Hey, Brother Huang, this is not like you, aren't you the most daring to make judgments?"

”"Get out~" Huang Donglai has nothing to be polite to talk to Sun Yihuan, "It's okay if people talk about it, what the hell are you doing here, are you full of fish?"

”"Heh......"

Sun Yi smiled in a humorous manner, "Okay, let's not talk about it, I'll let you go to the next level, I'll watch Brother Huang perform on the side." ”The chat between the two of them is full of swear words, and it is very natural for them to say it, and there is no sense of disobedience in listening, but if you think about it carefully, the information that leaked between the lines shows that they already know very well what Xue Tui is doing, and even a little bit of the meaning of Sang scolding Huai in it.Xue Tui was listening, and he was also secretly frightened......

Over the years of non-return, he has also seen many so-called "young heroes", but most of these young people in their teens and twenties are too flamboyant and upright, and they always like to talk big and full of ......

Just a few words of praise and they will easily step into the trap.But the two boys in front of them not only have a certain ability, but also are quite experienced in dealing with the world - they are not sure of the force, they basically don't pretend, even when they are touted, there is a way out in the words of response.Xue Tui has only seen such a young man in his life, which makes him interested.………… After a while, Xue Tui led the two to a study on the second floor; There are bookshelves on all sides of the room, and in addition to books, there are also many antique calligraphy and paintings, potted plant ornaments; There is a table on the south side of the room, and the paper, ink, pen and inkstone have already been prepared on the table.As soon as the three of them came to the room, before they could stand still, Xue Tui suddenly turned around and said, "Two sons, I'll get straight to the point......"

He wanted to kill these two people by surprise, "Today's 'one look', please ......look here" At this point, he pointed to something on the third floor of the bookshelf next to him at this moment.That's right, the so-called "eye" is actually "knowing things".Of course, what can be taken out to test others cannot be something very common, it must be a treasure, and it is a rare and even unique rare treasure in the entire Dashu - so the "one eye" level, the test of eyesight is the second, and the test of knowledge is the main thing.At this moment, what Xue Tui showed Sun Yihe and Huang Dong was one of the many collections of the owner of the building that they did not return.Behold......

As soon as he finished speaking, before he could put on a provocative expression, Huang Donglai looked at the thing and said, "Isn't this a telescope?"

”As soon as these words came out, Xue Tui almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood......

"one glance" level can be said to be the most difficult of the three levels; "Yipin" may also rely on guessing to pass the test, and the judgment of "Yiyan" has a certain degree of subjectivity, but the answer of "at a glance" is the kind of "you know if you know, and you can't guess if you don't know".Moreover, today Xue Tui deliberately chose a rare thing that the boss got from overseas Fanbang not long ago, and it can be said that few people in the entire Dashu know what it is; I didn't expect ......

The other party just stood in the distance and glanced at it, and didn't even come over to confirm it, so he directly reported the name of this thing."

Huang Gongzi......

Have you seen this before?

”When Xue Tui was surprised, he blurted out.Can Huang Donglai be so tricked by him?

If this topic continues, what can Brother Huang answer?

Is it to tell him that he is a time-traveler?

Or do you make up a story about the Netherlands where you have been to this universe?"

Well......

Heh......"

Huang Donglai laughed dryly, clenched his fists and arched his hand, "I'll forgive Huang for the inconvenience." ”There is nothing wrong with that, and there is no obligation to answer such questions that may involve individuals; There is also this rule in the rivers and lakes, if you don't want to say some things, it's nonsense, and it is clear at the beginning that it is "inconvenient to tell each other", which is not considered to be a loss of face for the other party."

Oh......

Heh, it's Xue who is abrupt. ”Xue Tui also quickly realized that he had asked Bald, he smiled, made a gesture, and quickly changed the topic, "Okay, since the 'one eye' level is not difficult for the two, then let's start the third level 'one word' directly." ”According to the requirements of "one glance", it is not only necessary to say the name of the item, but also to say the general function of the object; However, Xue Tui did not put forward mentally retarded requirements such as "please tell Huang Gongzi what the telescope is for", after all, the functions of the "telescope" are already included in the name, and there is no need for that.In this way, Sun and Huang passed the second level without much effort.But for the "one word" of the third level, they were still panicked......

Because according to their speculation, this level is likely to require them to be serious "fighting for literature"; The "well-informed" persona they have just established is likely to disappear at this level and be replaced by the "Zhangyu" persona.
