Chapter 6 Nanye first met Cai Wenji and accepted his apprentice Guanghua (11)
Cai Yong accepted Nan Ye as a disciple and naturally did not have to move again. Cai Yong, who was in a good mood, asked Cai Yan to prepare a pot of wine and a few side dishes, left Nanye at home for dinner, and asked Cai Yan to accompany him.
As soon as Nan Ye saw Cai Yan's take out Jiaoweiqin, his eyes immediately brighted and said to himself, "There are really a lot of treasures from my father-in-law's house in the future!"
Treasure: Jiaoweiqin, one of the four famous pianos in ancient times. Compared with the other three pianos, the name of Jiaowei is straightforward, but its background is extraordinary, so it was created by Cai Yong, a celebrity in the Eastern Han Dynasty. When Cai Yong was desperate in the sea of the river and traveled far away from Wuhui, he rescued a piece of sycamore tree that had not been burned and sounded abnormally in the fire. He made a lyre based on the length and shape of the wood, and the sound was indeed extraordinary. Because there are still scorch marks on the tail of the piano, it is named "jiao wei". After equipment charm +5. The treasure is bound to Cai Yong and can only be equipped if the star is higher than 392.
Nanye's current treasure column is equipped with a star control handle. When he just got the Tao Te Ching, he found that his intelligence had not increased. It seems that no matter how many treasures are collected, it is useless, so he is not too jealous of the tail piano. After praising two good pianos, he sat down to drink and listen to the piano.
Cai Yan's piano skills are superb, coupled with the crisp and pleasant sound quality of Jiaoweiqin, a song "High Mountains and Flowing Water" pops up as if he is in the mountains, and the river is really a kind of enjoyment.
Cai Yong asked about Nan Ye's background while listening to the piano and drinking. He regards Nan Ye as his future son-in-law. Of course, he has to ask who else is in the family. Nan Ye has already made up a set of words, and it is easy to deal with it. Asking Cai Yong, he suddenly thought of a question and said, "Can Master Nan have a table?"
Nan Ye said bluntly, "Young, there is no table. Could you please get me a word for me?"
Nan Ye knew that the ancients were famous, but where did he come from as a modern man? In addition, others have been calling him a mage, and no one has asked him, so he has never taken it. Now that he worships Cai Yong as his teacher, it is always difficult for Cai Yong to call himself a mage. No wonder Cai Yong would ask this question.
The word is usually taken by parents or teachers, and is usually related to the meaning of the original name. Nan Ye asked Cai Yong to take the words to show that he agreed with the teacher, so Cai Yong not only refused, but said happily, "Ye is brilliant and has the meaning of sunshine and moonlight. Master Nan came from afar to preach and teach the Dharma. Just as the sun and the moon shine on the world, how about taking the word Guanghua?
"Nan Ye, Nan Guanghua..." Nan Ye couldn't tell whether the word was good or bad. He meditated twice in his heart and felt that it was still oral, so he thanked him: "Thank you, sir. In the future, Mr. and Zhaoji will call me a table. Don't call me a mage again.
Cai Yong nodded and chatted with Nan Ye for a while. It was not until it was getting late that Nan Ye got up and left. Cai Yan sent Nanye to the door on behalf of Cai Yong and said, "The mage will teach the law tomorrow. Can I listen to it?"
Nan Ye pretended to be angry and said, "Why are you called a mage again? Didn't we say that we would call each other words? Zhaoji wants to go there. Why do you need to ask again? If I have time, I will often come to visit my husband and learn calligraphy. Zhaoji won't bother me.
Cai Yan's face turned slightly red and said, "How can the slave family be annoyed? Guanghua, don't think it's the slave family."
Cai Yong saw his daughter and Nan Ye standing at the door in the yard smiling reluctantly. He also hopes that his daughter will have a good home after marriage. Today, it is very gratifying to see that Nan Ye is polite to his daughter and does not dislike that his daughter is married.
On the way back to the inn, Nan Ye thought about Cai Yan's smile today. Li Yue next to him frowned and giggled when he didn't dare to ask more questions. He thought the mage was practicing some spells.
I was speechless all night. The next morning, the more than 100 newly received disciples and Cai Yan arrived outside the inn. Naturally, the inn owner knew that Master Nanye would not drive away these people, but Nanye was embarrassed to always occupy other people's territory.
Because the house rewarded by the Spirit Emperor has not been cleaned up, Nan Ye led a group of people to the ring. Anyway, this ring is also idle, and it is not as good as waste. When the people around saw Master Nan leading a large group of people to the ring, they thought it was lively, so they all gathered around the ring and refused to disperse.
Nan Ye has become a habit of being watched, and he doesn't care. He said to the people on the stage: "There are many kinds of science avenues, as far as I know, including Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry, history, art, music, sports, biology and so on. My strengths are mathematics and physics, and the rest of the subjects are only a little dabbled. So today, in addition to telling you the mystery of the first question, I will explain mathematics.
A saint in the West, Gauss, said: 'Mathematics is the first of science.' Marx, another saint, said: 'A science can only reach a truly perfect level when it successfully applies mathematics.' Another saint Bacon said, 'History makes smart, poetry makes witty, and mathematics makes fine.' This shows the important role of mathematics in various sciences.
So what is mathematics? That's what I often talk about. Only by laying a good foundation in mathematics and practicing science can we get twice the result with half the effort. In order to let everyone learn mathematics well, I specially made a set of teaching aids. Li Yue, give me the cards I prepared before.
Mr. Lin of Nanye and Lin talked for a long time. Before the disciples could take notes, they saw Li Yue and Yao Cheng carrying a large wooden box on the ring. Then one person sent a pile of paper, and Nan Ye also took a pile in his hand.
Cai Yan looked curiously at the pieces of paper in his hand and counted a total of 54 pieces, each of which was the same size and cut, with different patterns painted on it. Four of the main patterns are Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum, which are painted in the middle, and there are different symbols in the corners. Among them, two pieces of paper are different, with +-two patterns on one and ×÷ two patterns on the other.
Yes, this is the invention that Nan Ye thought of - poker. However, this poker card has been improved by Nan Ye, which not only turned ♠♥♣♦ into the four gentlemen in the flowers, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, but also turned JQKA into XYZ1, and the king also replaced it with +―×÷ four operation symbols. It can be said that it has been improved into a pair of mathematical poker.
After getting the cards, Cai Yan was not the only one who was curious. No one knew what these pieces of paper were used for, let alone what those symbols meant. So when Li Yue issued the card, he quietly talked about it.
"Brother, what do you think is painted on it?"
"I don't know! What do you think, brother?
"The mage's spell is mysterious. I guess this is a spell drawn by the mage."
"Well, that's reasonable! I just don't know whether these spells can exorcise ghosts or avoid evil spirits.
"Diuldn't you see the picture above? Some must be able to exorcise ghosts and some can avoid evil spirits.
"Sure enough, let me see yours too. Huh? Why are these charms in my hand the same?
"That's true. It must have been painted by the mage alone!"
"No! There are more than 150 of us, each of whom has 54 charms in his hand, which is... Anyway, there are many, many, can the mage draw it alone?
"You don't understand this! The mage is powerful. With a wave of a pen, thousands of charms are instantly made, and it doesn't take much time at all.
......
Listening to everyone's comments, Nan Ye sighed in his heart: "It's uneducated, it's terrible!" In order to make these cards quickly, Nanye did use some means, that is, engraving printing.
Although engraving printing technology began in the Sui Dynasty, seals appeared as early as the Shang and Yin dynasties, and there were naturally many craftsmen who carved seals in the Han Dynasty. Nanye just needs to design the pattern and then give it to these craftsmen as a large seal to engrave. As long as the mold of 54 cards is carved, it will be much easier to print and cut.
Seeing that all the disciples got the cards, Nan Ye said, "I know you have a lot of questions. Now let me talk about the use of this set of paper. First of all, it is not a charm, but a card. The cards in everyone's hand are exactly the same, and the pictures on them are all blue bamboo, chrysanthemums and plums, representing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. It doesn't matter whether the painting is good or bad, but the symbols on the corners. Let's get to know these symbols."
After saying that, Nanye pulled out a plum blossom 1 and showed it in front of everyone: "The vertical on this corner represents the number one, so this card can be called plum blossom 1 or winter plum 1..."
