Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 309 Zhou Cang accepts another disciple (2)

"Hey...hey..." The child stuttered a little, staring at Zhou Cang with wide eyes.

"Patriarch, Huang Zhong is only a general under Liu Biao and Liu Pan, how can he be so important to the Patriarch?" Zhou Chong asked persistently.

"General Zhonglang? Hehehe, that's Liu Jingsheng who doesn't know how to employ people. Tell me about this kid first, where did you find it?"

"Uh, Patriarch. There is nothing outstanding about this kid. He is an orphan I met on the way to Xinye. It is said that his family name is Deng. After his father died, his mother remarried and lived with the clan. The clan didn't treat him well. I took him back when I saw him being pitiful. Don’t look at him looking dull and silent, but he is smart. If there is anything, just teach him once and he will remember.”

"What? Surnamed Deng?" Zhou Cang's eyes widened, making Zhou Chong a little nervous, thinking that he had done something wrong again.

Zhou Chong said awkwardly: "The surname is Deng, and the name is Deng Fan. He still stutters a bit, and the children follow his example. They don't play with him. It's very pitiful."

The new savage, surnamed Deng, has a stutter, and all the characteristics match up.Just why is it called Deng Fan?
"Hehe, Zhou Chong, Zhou Chong, how do you think I should reward you?" Zhou Cang said leisurely.

"Zhou Chong made the decision without authorization and did something wrong, please punish the Patriarch!" Zhou Chong knelt down on the ground, not daring to look up. "The Patriarch knows that Zhou Chong was an orphan since he was a child, and he became rich and honored only when he met the Patriarch. It was only when he saw the pity of this little boy that he felt pity for a moment, and then he did something wrong."

"Get up, I mean how to reward you, not how to punish you."

"Ah?" Zhou Chong was completely confused. What did Zhou Cang mean by this? He didn't say that he would reward Huang Zhong for bringing him back to Xuzhou. Could it be that Deng Fan is a descendant of a phoenix living among the people.

"Deng Fan, I really like him and intend to accept him as a disciple."

"Ah, the Patriarch wants to take him as a disciple?" Zhou Chong finally understood that Zhou Cang didn't want to punish himself, but why did Zhou Cang accept a five-year-old boy whom he just met, who was not good at speaking, as his disciple?Zhou Cang's personal disciple is the Major General. How can an orphan turn into a phoenix like this?Although I and Zhou Xi are also orphans, after meeting the head of the family, they have gone through untold hardships. They were born and died in Luoyang and Chang'an. With their own talents, loyalty and fearlessness, Zhou Chong didn't understand .

Zhou Chong didn't understand, but Zhou Cang couldn't explain it. Did he want to tell Deng Fan that he was one of the best generals in the late Three Kingdoms period?Is it the wizard who wiped out Xishu?
Zhou Cang said with a straight face: "Don't you still believe my eyes?"

Uh?Is this also an explanation?Of course Zhou Chong believes in Zhou Cang's vision, but he doesn't believe that there are gods and men in the world. He can judge his talent by looking at a five-year-old child. He and Zhou Xi have experienced Zhou Cang's test at the beginning, and they still often Speaking of the scam that Zhou Cang saw through.

"Get down on your knees and call me teacher." Zhou Chong pulled Deng Ai to kneel down and kowtow, bowing to the teacher. "This is Xuzhou Mu, Lord Zhou Cangzhou. He will be your teacher from now on, and you will be his second disciple."

"Hey...hey..."

"Your elder brother's surname is Wei Mingyan, and Zi Wenchang is no longer with the teacher. He has gone to practice as an official. You may meet in the future." Zhou Cang said to Deng Fan.

"Ma'am is inconvenient now, so Deng Fan is staying with you temporarily. You find the best husband to teach him how to read and write. Let him go in and out of every place in Xuzhou except Mr. Hua Tuo, and you arrange a few more guards to protect his safety. .When he is seven years old, I will train him myself."

"Yes, Patriarch, please rest assured." Patriarch is serious, Zhou Chong thought to himself.

"In addition, Dianman, Gan Xiang, Zhang Xiong, and Xu Gai let him get to know each other, and told them not to make fun of Deng Fan, or I will punish him severely. Give him a good body, he is a bit too thin .”

Dian Wei's son Dianman is nine years old, Gan Chi's son Gan Xiang is eight years old, Zhang Jai's son Zhang Xiong is seven years old, Xu Huang's son Xu Gai is six years old. peak.Zhang Xiong lived in Zhou Cang's mansion, and Zhou Cang sent someone to call Zhang Xiong to play with Deng Fan.

Only Zhou Cang and Zhou Chong were left in the lobby.

"Okay, you did a lot of credit in going to Jingzhou this time, and now you brought Huang Zhong and Deng Fan back." Zhou Cang pondered for a while, "It's not too much to reward you with a jade medal, but some merits slowly come to you." I’m afraid I’ll be very dissatisfied with you if I give it to you now, and you’ve been promoted from me, so it’s inevitable that some people will think that I reward you out of selfishness.”

Zhou Chong knelt down on the ground again: "It's only natural to be able to do things for the Patriarch, so how can you reward me? At the beginning, Zhou Xi and I did some cheating and abducting things for a meal, and now I vividly remember it. Without the Patriarch, we would not be where we are today. Even if his body is smashed to pieces, it is difficult to repay the great kindness and virtue of the Patriarch, Zhou Chong dare not forget his roots!"

"If you have faults, you will be punished, and if you have meritorious service, you will naturally be rewarded. Your official position is still not small, and you are not short of money. What rewards are there for you?" Zhou Cang was a little worried.

"Uh, Jian'an paper is enough, why do I need toilet paper?"

"Ask Zhou Fu yourself, it's so wonderful." Zhou Cang glared at Zhou Chong, "Tell me what's going on in Jingzhou now?"

"According to the entrustment of the Patriarch, I first went to Xinye to meet Cui Jun, and then found out that Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang went to Fangling County together to meet Zhuge Liang's eldest brother-in-law, the prefect Kuai Qi, and planned to enter Sichuan. I had to invite Cui Jun and the other three Come to Xuzhou."

Zhou Cang nodded slightly. Has Zhuge Liang started to inspect Xichuan now? "The three of Cui Jun have come to Xuzhou a few days ago, and met me unexpectedly outside the city. After some conversations, they are planning to stay in Xuzhou temporarily, and now they are guests of the academy."

"That's really great. Now that I've come to Xuzhou, I can't move my feet if I want to leave, hehe." Zhou Chong continued: "Although I haven't seen Zhuge Liang, I met his younger brother Zhuge Jun. Zhuge Jun was born in the first year of Zhongping. In Xuzhou, little Zhuge Liang was three years old, just in time for the Yellow Turban rebellion. In the fourth year of Chuping, when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, he went to Yangzhou with his uncle Zhuge Xuan and elder brother Zhuge Liang, and he was nine years old."

What did you do in Chuping four years?Didn't that year just catch up with me to go to Chang'an?Since returning to Xuzhou, except that I have been traveling between Xuzhou and Luoyang, and then moved to Pengcheng, I did not expect to miss Zhuge's family by mistake.It's fine for me to miss it, but Tao Qian would miss it anyway. You must know that Zhuge Xuan took refuge in Yuan Shu after he left Xuzhou.

"Zhuge Jun grew up in Xuzhou, so he misses Xuzhou very much, and keeps asking me about the current situation in Xuzhou. In addition, Zhuge Jun is not good at governing the country and the art of war. He only has a sense of Qimen Dunjia and Qiqiao I am very interested, and I am quite curious about the establishment of the artisan school in Xuzhou."

"Then you didn't bring him back to Xuzhou?" Zhou Cang laughed.
