Chapter 458: First Conversation with Cai Wenji

The young generation mentioned by Cai Yan refers to the younger generation, including their classmates. Of course, the younger generation also includes Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other older people.

Cai Yan's father Cai Yong and Wang Can's father Wang Chang are considered the previous generation!

There is no big boundary when describing generations.

For example, Zhu Hao's father Zhu Jun, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others should also be considered the younger generation, but this boundary is just a little higher than Zhu Hao and them.

…

While Zhu Hao and Cai Yan and Wang Can were greeting each other, Lin Mu followed behind them calmly.

"By the way, let me introduce you to this Lin Mu, who is from the same county as me and is also from Kuaiji County. He is the seventh-rank general who suppresses rebellion and the Sima of the separate department of Kuaiji County! A young hero!" After greeting the two, Zhu Hao did not forget to introduce his new friend Lin Mu.

Hearing this, Lin Mu raised his eyebrows slightly. Zhu Hao was not a mistake.

"Seventh-rank anti-rebellion general?" Wang Can smiled faintly upon hearing this.

Before, Cai Yan nodded to Lin Mu, and he saw it in his eyes, thinking that she was someone he knew, a fellow traveler, but he didn't expect that she was just a general of a miscellaneous title, a general who fights rebellion. Lin Mu, who did not meet his standards, fell behind in his heart.

"Master Cai, Mr. Wang, Lin Mu is polite!" Lin Mu bowed modestly and smiled indifferently.

If he was not excited, it would be impossible. Seeing the legendary goddess Cai Yan, his heart was inevitably rippled. But he just had to keep a straight face.

"Master Cai? Haha, what virtue do I have to bear this name. Mr. Lin, you don't have to be polite, just call me Wenji." After Cai Yan nodded to Lin Mu, she had been observing him without leaving any trace. When she heard Lin Mu call her Master Cai, she slightly confirmed some of her guesses in her heart, but she was still modest.

"Zhongxuan, Lin Mu is a disciple of Master Xun, and we are classmates." Zhu Hao mentioned it lightly, as if he knew Wang Can's temperament.

"Master Xun? Which Master Xun?" Cai Yan, who was beside him, heard the words and asked calmly.

"Oh! Look at what I said. It is the great scholar Xun Shuang, who is known as the Eight Dragons of the Xun Family and is known as the peerless benevolent and wise!" Zhu Hao said faintly.

The Xun Family of Yingchuan is not as withered as in the history of the real world. The Eight Dragons of the Xun Family are still alive, but they were harmed by the [Party Imprisonment] and did not enter the government.

Of course, Lin Mu did not know the details, but he knew that the Xun Family was a prominent family in Shenzhou with many talents.

The younger generation of the Xun Family includes Xun Yu, Xun You, etc., and the older generation includes the Eight Dragons of the Xun Family. Above them, there are still elderly and transcendent beings.

Except for the younger generation, who do not have the title of "Master Xun", the others can be crowned with this title, so Cai Yan asked this question.

When Zhu Hao was talking to Lin Mu before, he asked Lin Mu about his master. Lin Mu did not hide it and directly brought out Xun Shuang, a big backer who had just worshipped him not long ago.

Zhu Hao also asked about Xun Shuang's location and wanted to visit him. Unfortunately, even he didn't know where Xun Shuang was now.

For people in the same camp, there is no need to hide Xun Shuang's whereabouts.

Xun Shuang, who was exiled by the party, was very worthy of respect from these scholars. Therefore, when Wang Can heard that Lin Mu was Xun Shuang's disciple, he immediately put away his contempt.

"So you are Xun Shuoru's disciple, Zhongxuan is polite." Wang Can clasped his fists slightly. He used his courtesy name to represent himself, and on the surface he accepted Lin Mu into his circle and recognized him as a [classmate]!

"Brother Zhongxuan is polite. It is my honor to meet the disciple of Mr. Cai." Lin Mu replied slightly.

Afterwards, like Zhu Hao, Wang Can also asked about Xun Shuang's whereabouts and wanted to visit him.

Same question, same answer.

Afterwards, thanks to Xun Shuang's reputation, Lin Mu gradually began to enter the legendary circle!

Everyone began to chat.

"Zhongxuan, why did you and your teacher come to Yangzhou? Didn't I hear that you were traveling in Yizhou before?" Zhu Hao asked with doubt.

Hearing this, Lin Mu frowned slightly. He already knew about this question, but why did Senior Cai Yong come to see the Dragon Yuan Stone? The Dragon Yuan Stone of the Han Dynasty is a 15-zhang imperial-level Dragon Yuan Stone.

The Kingdom is 9 zhang, the Dynasty is 12 zhang, and the Empire is 15 zhang!

The Dragon Yuan Stone of the Han Dynasty is inherited from the previous dynasty.

"Could it be that Senior Cai Yong wants to ask for the Dragon Yuan Stone to make some kind of stone tablet?" Lin Mu said in his heart. Apart from this, he really couldn't think of any other reason.

Sure enough, Wang Can's words echoed Lin Mu's guess.

Wang Can said softly, "Teacher, I came here because I heard that Governor Liu Yao obtained the Dragon Yuan Stone through some means, so I came to ask for a bottle and then make a handed-down scripture stele."

"Dragon Yuan Stone?! No wonder, this is a top-grade material for engraving Dao marks and carrying Dao rhyme! It is a level higher than the blue-veined jade stone that is the material of the stele in front of our Taixue Academy!" Zhu Hao said in a concentrated voice, quite surprised.

"Yes! Apart from the known Dragon Yuan Stones that guard the ten directions, this is the first time we have heard of its appearance. After getting the news, we rushed here without stopping." Wang Can smiled slightly.

"Haha, the Dragon Yuan Stone that guards the destiny, the princes of the vassal states in our Shenzhou don't have such high-end things. Liu Yao has the opportunity to obtain this thing, and I don't know how popular he will be among the princes!"

"Yes, the teacher was worried that it would be traded to other princes, so he rushed over immediately to grab the first opportunity. However, no matter how popular it is, the teacher came here specially and put down his status. Governor Liu Yao should give up his love and give or exchange a bottle for the teacher."

Listening to the conversation between Wang Can and Zhu Hao, Lin Mu sighed slightly in his heart, yes! Dragon Yuan Stone is a heavy weapon for the town. The princes in Shenzhou must have fought for it and made Liu Yao a rich man.

In the Han Dynasty, in addition to the Dragon Court, there are many princes, all of whom were enfeoffed by the relatives of the Liu family.

A vassal state is equivalent to a county, such as the [Anping State] owned by Liu Xu, the famous prince of Jizhou.

Lin Mu does not know the specific effect of Dragon Yuan Stone for the time being, but as a heavy weapon of the kingdom, its effectiveness must be extremely powerful. As far as he guessed, the gathering of luck and condensation of the world is one of the outstanding effects. The other effects are hard to guess.

"What a pity, it was snatched away by Liu Yao. I wonder if I will encounter such a treasure again in the future." Lin Mu felt quite sorry.

Afterwards, everyone returned to the banquet and continued to eat. Lin Mu was called by Zhu Hao to sit on a table that was newly added on the high platform. He didn't have any psychological burden, so he sat down calmly, and occasionally talked with Cai Yan, Wang Can and Zhu Hao.

During this period, Cai Yan also asked Lin Mu about his views on current affairs. Lin Mu thought about it and told her.

They had a great conversation!
