Chapter 392 Careful Thinking

The old Taoists had extraordinary ability to accept, and they had not taken much time to understand the relationship between density, volume and buoyancy, and said goodbye and left happily.

With Li Hao's earnest advice, Yuan Tiangang also said goodbye in a dusty manner and went back to prepare the two thousand guan of money.

Li Hao watched a group of old Taoist priests leave excitedly, shook his head in a relaxed manner, turned around and was about to go to the back house to have a good sleep. As soon as he turned around, he saw Ma Zhou smirking and said in surprise: "Why haven't you left yet?"

Ma Zhou smiled brightly, his face was almost about to crack. He bowed his hands and bowed deeply and said, "Mr. Ma Zhou had drunk too much before and offended him so much. I hope he won't take it to heart."

The night owl enters the house and comes without any trouble.

Just look at Ma Zhou's arrogant look at him and then respectfully, you will know that this guy must have something to say.

Given the series of things that happened before, Li Hao couldn't guess what Ma Zhou wanted to say, and he immediately gave up the door without hesitation: "Okay, I don't care about it, you go."

"Ah?!" The smile froze on his face. Ma Zhou had already prepared a lot of words, but they were blocked in an instant.

Originally, I thought that no matter whether Li Hao forgives his rudeness or scolds him angrily, as long as I deal with it carefully, and then do this and this, I will eventually find an opportunity to get closer to him.

After all, everyone is a person with great knowledge and talent. He should appreciate each other and be confidant.

Since you are a confidant, it will be normal for you to exchange knowledge with each other in the future.

But the plan was not as good as change. Ma Zhou never expected that Li Hao would not play according to the routine, neither getting angry nor getting involved. He just said in a simple sentence and blocked all the words he had made to prepare.

How can I get any knowledge about that... physics from the other party in the future?

Seeing that Ma Zhou was still blocking him, Li Hao frowned: "What, didn't I say I had forgiven you? Let's go quickly. I have to go back and have a sleep. I'm so tired to deal with this group of old men. I don't know how many brain cells I've died."

Ma Zhou was anxious: "No, my husband, you..."

"What's this? Go quickly and go quickly, don't delay the teacher's rest." Before Ma Zhou finished speaking, Wang Xuance had already caught up and pushed him out.

Really, who is this drunkard a fool? He apologized for not seeing that others are interested in 'physics'?

I have never been in contact with it before, and I don’t know that the teacher is so knowledgeable. Even how to fly. Now, the teacher is surrounded by the madman (Xue Rengui) and the fool (Iron Pillar). Doesn’t this mean that I can give priority to inheriting the teacher’s knowledge?

While pushing, he turned his head to look at Li Hao who was wandering around. Wang Xuance felt excited: "Teacher, go and rest, the students will drive him away immediately."

Li Hao's eyes twitched and he said with a dark face: "Wang Xuance, when will I become your teacher?"

Wang Xuance, who was pushing Ma Zhou, took the time to reply: "Teacher, in the hearts of students, you will always be my teacher."

Ma Zhou saw that, and immediately realized what Wang Xuance was, and pulled his neck and shouted: "I'm the same. I'll hear it in the morning and die in the evening! Teacher, please accept me as a student."

"Get out of here." Li Hao waved his hand boredly, turned his head to yell at Xue Rengui who was watching the fun: "What are you watching? I'll drive these two bastards out for me."

"Oh." Xue Rengui suddenly came back to his soul. Without saying a word, he smiled and pushed out all the two guys who were tearing at the door, and then closed the door with a "bang", completely ignoring his previous brotherhood with Wang Xuance.

Why isn't it? Is it so easy to become a disciple? I have worked hard for more than ten or twenty years, and only learned a little thing, and moved to the Tang Dynasty after more than 1,400 years... How could it be so easy to sell it?

Hu merchants transported grapes from the Western Regions across regions, but they felt it was hard to get a few times the price.

How can things I move through time and space be cheaper?

When he returned to the back house and sat down, Xue Rengui also walked back from the front, carrying Wang Xuance's gifts and other items in his hand.

Li Hao pointed to the wing room, signaled Xue Rengui to put the things there, and then asked lightly: "Have you driven away?"

Xue Rengui turned around and looked forward, and said with a frown: "I drove them out, but they didn't seem to want to leave, and they were kneeling outside the door."

"Oh, I've gotten cheating on me." Li Hao paused his legs and then continued to shake again: "Okay, if you want to kneel down, just kneel down. Rengui, I'll tell you, don't worry about them, just let them kneel there. I want to see when they can kneel down."

"Uh... General, this is not good, there are so many people outside..."

Li Hao curled his lips, got up and lie up beside the bed, closed his eyes: "Tsk, what's wrong with it? Anyway, my reputation is already smelly on the streets of Chang'an, so I'm afraid of them."

Seeing that Li Hao was about to go to bed, Xue Rengui left helplessly.

It’s not that he didn’t understand why the two outside wanted to become disciples. If it weren’t for his ambition to make achievements on the battlefield, he would probably be exactly the same as the two outsiders.

That is the technique of flying in the sky. If you can learn it, the glorious clan and glorious ancestors are just around the corner.

Thinking of this, Xue Rengui came to the flower hall in front, opened the door, and squatted in front of the two guys who were kneeling on the ground and still resentful to each other and were competing with each other: "I said you are almost done. The general has rested. You two will have no result if you kneel down here."

"Rengui, don't persuade me. In the past, Wang Xuance, I, had no idea about Mount Tai. I didn't want to worship the prince, but I just thought about what imperial examination to take. Now I understand that the prince is my guiding light. From now on, I will go wherever the prince goes. If the prince asks me to go east, I will never go west."

"Bah, you're ready." Ma Zhou spitted on the ground in one mouthful of saliva, saying disdain: "You have lost all the faces of the literati in the world."

"Ha, am I embarrassed?" Wang Xuance stopped hearing this and glared: "Your surnamed Ma is much better than me, and you are not kneeling here like me."

"I'm different from you. My purpose here today is to find the young master to become a disciple. Unlike some people, they don't show off their eagles without seeing rabbits."

"You fart, I haven't seen the teacher for a long time."

“Always more than I see.”

Xue Rengui suddenly felt that he should have listened to Li Hao just now, and found a place to have a good rest and have a nap. Why did he have to come out and persuade these two people to make trouble? He really asked for trouble.

"If you want to kneel down, just kneel down. I'll just come out to tell you that the general has rested. You've gotten up and go whatever you should do in the future. That, Xuan Ce, your room is in the west wing. If you are tired of kneeling, come in by yourself." After saying this, Xue Rengui ignored the two kneeling on the ground and turned around and went back.

Behind him, Ma Zhou and Wang Xuance continued to compete with each other with big eyes.

The businessmen or tourists who were shopping around were quite curious about these two people, but after seeing their kneeling positions, they all stayed away like hiding from the plague gods.

In the Tang Dynasty cram school, except for the first disaster in Chang'an, who would normally give the store this name?

This is really a person's name. The shadow of the tree has not even seen the main owner here. It can scare people just by just one brand so that they dare not come over.

Even at night, the entire Guan City in Dongcheng City had a drum sounded three times, and the Wuhou of the Shangjie walked back and forth three or four times at the door of the store. Seeing that they had no intention of getting up, they went there on their own without even asking.

Only then did Ma Zhou and Wang Xuance understand the terribleness of the first disaster in Chang'an.

The warrior who was afraid of the heavens and the earth actually didn't even dare to come up and ask a question? The teacher was indeed mighty and domineering.

The two of them, each with their own thoughts, were trembling in the cold wind, glaring at each other from time to time, and secretly praying that the other party could not hold on.

Time passed by little by little, the moon sets and the sun rises, and the words gradually turn white.

"Cruff", the closed door was pulled open from inside. Li Hao, who was sleepy, bit the willow tree strips in his mouth, squatted in front of the two and muttered, "Why are you two still here? What are the foods of the military guards in the streets? Didn't you take them away last night?"

Wang Xuance endured the numbness from his legs and smiled and said, "Teacher Hongfu, Mr. Wu has come many times. For your sake, you have not made things difficult for your disciple."

"Haha..." Li Hao pulled out the willow branches, grinned and rinsed his mouth with clear water, spit out the green salt in his mouth, patted Wang Xuance on the shoulder and said, "I am really good at speaking, and my teacher's confidence in you going to Tubo has increased a lot."

Wang Xuance looked overjoyed and burst into tears: "Really? Did the teacher agree to accept the disciple?"

Li Hao nodded: "Well, for your sincerity, you can temporarily accept you as a registered disciple. If you can complete the mission successfully during this trip to Tubo, you are accepting you as a formal disciple."

Seeing that, Ma Zhou was jealous and shouted: "Teacher, you are unfair. My disciple has also knelt down all night. Why do you only accept him but not his disciples?"

Li Hao turned his head, looked at Ma Zhou, and said lightly: "Because you are not him, he is not you. You have different weights, different knowledge, and different personalities. Since they are all different, how can you measure the same thing?"

"I..." Ma Zhou almost squirted out a mouthful of old blood. Is that how fair understood?

"Teacher..." Wang Xuance felt a little reluctant to look at him, and at least he had knelt all night long.

"Do you want to plead for him?" Li Hao looked at Wang Xuance with a smile.

Wang Xuance hesitated for a moment and finally made up his mind: "Teacher, my disciple dares, please forgive me."

Li Hao smiled without comment and squatted in front of the two again: "What if I don't agree? What would you do?"

"Disciple..." Wang Xuance whispered, but didn't know how to answer.

Wang Xuance, who lost his father since childhood, knew very well that survival was difficult. Being able to take Li Hao as his teacher would mean not to say that he had a chance to take revenge all at once, and in the future he would have a strong backer in the court.

So he couldn't say anything, if Li Hao didn't accept Ma Zhou, he would do whatever he wanted.

Ma Zhou never thought that Wang Xuance would help him. After a moment of silence, he held Wang Xuance in a dilemma and said, "Brother Wang, it's not easy to become a disciple. Don't miss the opportunity because Ma missed it."

"Brother Ma..."

Without waiting for Wang Xuance to finish his words, Li Hao interrupted him and said, "Okay, come in with me."

After that, he ignored Ma Zhou and turned around and returned to the store.

After a while, Wang Xuance followed in slowly: "Teacher."

"But I think I'm a little unkind?" Li Hao pointed to the chair opposite and signaled Wang Xuance to sit down.

"The disciple dares not." Wang Xuance stood there and said in a pun.

Li Hao shook his head without forcing it, sighed and said, "Xuance, what do you think of Ma Zhou?"

"This..." Wang Xuance hesitated for a moment, recalling the previous encounter with Ma Zhou, and said nervously: "This person is a rebellious person."

"You're right." Li Hao nodded in praise and said, "Ma Zhou, whose courtesy name is Binwang, is from Chiping, Qinghe. He has been lonely and quick-witted since childhood. He has been frustrated because of his poor family, so he has developed a unrestrained and unruly personality.

During the Wude period, he was given a re-education as an assistant teacher in Bozhou, but he drank every day and did not take the lecture seriously. He was scolded by the assassination, and then ran away angrily and ran to Chang'an to study.

Xuan Ce, do you think that such a person should accept him as a disciple?"

Wang Xuance didn't know much about Ma Zhou before, but based on his rash performance yesterday, he felt that he was a rebellious person.

Now that he heard Li Hao's explanation, he vaguely felt that it was inappropriate to accept such a person as a disciple. He said, "Why didn't the teacher tell him clearly just now, so that he could stop his thoughts of becoming a disciple."

Li Hao said with slightest voice: "Because I want to give him another chance. If he can restrain his unruly nature and persist for another day, it will be impossible to accept him as a disciple and let him rise to the top from now on."

So that's how it is. Wang Xuance realized it all at once and said in admiration: "The teacher is far-sighted, but Xuance is not as good as possible."

Li Haoruo smiled meaningfully: "Haha..., not bad, I speak people's words when I see ghosts, and can stick to principles. I am indeed not wrong to you as a teacher."

"Uh..." Wang Xuance touched his nose awkwardly, trying to explain but didn't know where to start. If he didn't explain, he was afraid that Li Hao would misunderstand.

Li Hao was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with him and waved his hands: "Okay, I dare to go to your room and have a good rest for a day, and pack up tomorrow to prepare for departure. Your trip to Tubo this time is very important, don't be careless."

"No!" Wang Xuance bowed respectfully, turned around and went to the back house.

Last night, I had a night of fighting with Ma Zhou. When I returned to the back house, I found my room under the guidance of Xue Rengui. Wang Xuance pierced his head on the bed and fell asleep.

The only thought that happened in my mind before going to bed was: Why did the teacher know Ma Zhou so well? Could it be that the teacher had been paying attention to this person?
