Chapter 430 It's so flat(2/2)
Although Yang Fan could ignore it, Sima Caizhang didn't think so.
Although this old guy is a bit stubborn, he is not stupid. Of course he can hear the harmony between Kong Yingda and Yang Fan, and he immediately angrily yelled: "Boy, don't you think I have the talent to teach you?"
Yang Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said with a wry smile: "Senior, how can this junior dare to think like this? You are too worried!"
However, Sima Caizhang refused to give up and said directly: "You kid clearly despises me. I can't tolerate it, but I can't tolerate it. Today you must know how powerful I am."
Looking at the old troll as if he had been given blood, Yang Fan said helplessly: "Professor Sima, you really care too much. I sincerely admire you for your achievements in the way of saints!"
Sima Caizhang smiled proudly and asked: "In that case, I ask you, what do you think of the "Five Classics" compiled by me?"
Sima Caizhang attached great importance to the "Five Classics" that he compiled based on his own reference, and could not tolerate the slightest doubt or disdain from others.
Yang Fan's disapproval when he heard his name just now made him feel deeply humiliated.
Then he relentlessly attacked Yang Fan, wanting to overpower Yang Fan's "Enlightenment and Arithmetic" in compiling the "Five Classics" so that Yang Fan would be convinced!
Now asking Yang Fan what he thinks of the Five Classics is actually a naked show off.
Nowadays, the "Five Classics" he participated in compiling has not yet been finalized and has not been published. How can Yang Fan have Mao's opinion?
Besides, Yang Fan is a fake and has never even read the general contents of the Four Books and Five Classics. What can he think?
However, Yang Fan did not want to have any conflict with this old man who had a somewhat stubborn personality.
In ancient times, the relationship between superiority and inferiority or the relationship between old and young was still very important.
Regardless of whether he is right or wrong, if he insists on arguing with an elder who is only a few years younger than his grandfather, even if others know the reason, they will definitely label Yang Fan as disrespectful to his elders.
Thinking of this, Yang Fan had no choice but to say: "The younger generation is less talented and less knowledgeable. He doesn't even know what the Four Books and Five Classics are, and it is even less likely that he has any opinions on the works that the old gentleman participated in!"
"If the seniors can participate in the compilation, it will definitely be a great masterpiece. If a kid makes random comments, it will become a trick. I don't dare!"
Regarding the compilation of the Five Classics, Yang Fan only knew that it was completed in the Tang Dynasty.
After all, the "Five Classics" is a masterpiece that can be passed down to future generations, and its explanation is still remarkable, but Yang Fan did not understand its content at all.
Yang Fan could do as he pleased with the lake, but Sima Caizhang was very proud of his academic achievements.
He is even more proud of his participation in the compilation of the Five Classics.
Yang Fan's obviously perfunctory words naturally did not satisfy him, so he asked: "What do you think of "Enlightenment" compared to yours?"
Seeing Sima Caizhang chasing after him, Kong Yingda suddenly felt a little ashamed.
Yang Fan, a young man with such a grumpy temper, can still give himself a bit of a hard time.
But you, a person who is about to be buried, are so ignorant of how to advance or retreat. You simply don’t know what to do.
People have already tolerated you time and time again, so why do you, a bad old man like you, need to be aggressive?
Even though he and Sima Caizhang were on good terms, Kong Yingda felt that Sima Caizhang was going too far.
What's more, the compilation of the "Five Classics" is based on the summary, organization, and interpretation of the classics of sages, which is a work of picking up people's wisdom.
The "Enlightenment" written by Yang Fan is from another perspective to provide education and enlightenment for children.
The two works have different starting points, so what is there to compare?
Thinking of this, Kong Yingda said displeasedly: "Cai Zhang, is this the behavior of an elder? Don't you think it's too rude?"
Sima Caizhang may also feel that he is a little too impatient, but his character does not allow for submission, so he can only bite the bullet and say: "Reputation is a small matter, truth is a big deal. This boy obviously despises me, I have to let him know
There are mountain high mountain."
"I have eaten more salt than the grain I have eaten, and the bridges I have crossed are farther than the roads I have walked. Don't think that you can underestimate me just because you don't know the so-called "Enlightenment"."
Kong Yingda's old face turned cold and he said displeasedly: "There is no end to learning. As the saying goes, there is no first place in literature and no second place in martial arts."
"Literati only have others to look down upon themselves, so there is no reason for them to look down upon themselves. I think you are living longer and getting better, and you are actually getting angry with a young man. It is really inappropriate. I am ashamed to be associated with you."
Sima Caizhang's face turned red and his beard stood up in anger: "Academic exchanges are inherently divided between young and old. Isn't it too much to say this, Brother Chong Yuan?"
After hearing this, Yang Fan decided not to be spoiled anymore, and said solemnly: "Thank you, Mr. Kong, for your care. Since Senior Sima is so elegant, how can I let this junior down?"
"Since Senior Sima feels that he has a deep understanding of the way of saints, then Junior will take the liberty of communicating with Senior!"
This old man is so arrogant that he won't give up until he is given some color to show him!
