Chapter 1105 The God Wei
"Chen Xuan, you don't need to blame yourself. This matter has nothing to do with you. It's all fate. I've already calculated it, and this fate cannot be changed. My master is destined to not escape this calamity."
Situ Qing comforted Chen Xuan instead.
As members of the Xuanmen, they believed more in so-called fate.
After speaking, Situ Qing took out the spiritual tortoise shell, altar cloth, and five emperor coins from the cloth bag and pushed them in front of Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan couldn't refuse and was about to accept them, but he would return them to Situ Qing whenever she wanted them.
Suddenly, Situ Qing screamed and said, "Chen Xuan... you..."
"What's wrong?"
Chen Xuan looked over and saw Situ Qing staring intently at the spiritual tortoise shell and other items, her eyes filled with shock.
"Chen Xuan, you've learned the Yi Ji Shu?" Situ Qing asked in surprise.
"Mmm..." Chen Xuan nodded truthfully.
Situ Qing blushed: "You learned Yi Ji Shu in such a short time. I've been learning for years and still can't learn it... My master always said I was stupid."
Back on the mountain, Situ Qing had been learning Yi Ji Shu for years. Perhaps it was due to her poor calculation skills that she couldn't learn Yi Ji Shu at all. Now, she hadn't even entered the threshold.
"Uh..."
Chen Xuan was suddenly speechless, but at the same time, he figured something out. The reason Master Ma set such a condition was to take this opportunity to pass on Yi Ji Shu to him, so it wouldn't be lost with him.
After dinner, Situ Qing settled the bill and stood up to leave. The boss suddenly grabbed Chen Xuan and reprimanded him with an elder's tone, "How can you make a young girl so sad? If you dare to treat her badly, I won't let you off!"
Chen Xuan found the boss's words both amusing and exasperating. He didn't know how to explain, so he could only nod and promise not to bully Situ Qing anymore before the boss would let him go.
"Now that you're in the provincial capital and have no relatives, and your master has also had an accident, why don't you come back to live with me? It'll be good to have someone to look after you."
Chen Xuan looked at Situ Qing and said sincerely.
Chen Xuan felt full of guilt towards Situ Qing. Although Master Ma's death was fated, he was closely related to this matter. To repay Master Ma, he had to take good care of Situ Qing.
Situ Qing shook her head, "No need. My master has some things to give me to handle. After I finish, I'll come find you. Oh, by the way, Chen Xuan, give me your phone number."
Seeing that Situ Qing had important matters to attend to, Chen Xuan did not refuse. He nodded in agreement and urged Situ Qing to find him. Chen Xuan gave Situ Qing his phone number. Situ Qing took out an old phone and saved her number.
Before parting, Chen Xuan also gave Situ Qing a bank card with a large sum of money in it.
Watching Situ Qing leave, Chen Xuan took a taxi back home.
He closed his eyes to rest, recalling his encounter with Master Ma and the three things he had promised him.
The first was to teach Liu Feifei a lesson. It seemed that even though Master Ma hadn't met Situ Qing, he had been observing her in secret. He knew Liu Feifei was hunting Situ Qing, which was why he asked him to teach Liu Feifei a lesson.
The second was to learn Yi Ji Shu, which was to allow Chen Xuan to inherit his Yi Ji Shu to prevent it from being lost.
As for the third, it was a dying wish to entrust Situ Qing to his care.
In fact, Master Ma had planned for a long time to become this Dragon Tamer.
He quickly returned home and carried all the spiritual tortoise shell items back.
He found a safe place to put them away and then went downstairs. He saw Su Yunxi sitting on the sofa, looking dejected.
He couldn't help but ask, "Yunxi, isn't the lithography machine about to be completed? Why are you still unhappy?"
Su Yunxi said, "We've found the method, but we've encountered a new problem."
"Oh? What problem?"
"We need to find a mathematician to help us calculate a piece of data. Only after this data is calculated will the lithography machine be truly completed," Su Yunxi said immediately.
"A mathematician? Is there a candidate?"
"Professor Long recommended someone. This person is a bit strange and said he can definitely calculate it. You might need to go to Jiangnan University tomorrow to invite him over," Su Yunxi said.
"No problem, I'll handle it. But who exactly is he?"
Chen Xuan couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, Su Yunxi's expression also turned strange. She took out a photograph.
Chen Xuan looked at it, and after a moment, he also frowned, "Yunxi, are you sure this person is a great mathematician?"
The photograph showed a thin young man with unkempt hair, as if he hadn't groomed it for a long time, messy like a bird's nest. He looked dazed, carrying a large barrel of mineral water and a few steamed buns.
How could this person look like a great mathematician?
Su Yunxi gave a wry smile, "To be honest, my expression was almost the same as yours when you first saw this photo. However, this person is indeed a great mathematician, and a very formidable one, respected as 'Wei Shen'!"
Seeing Chen Xuan's skeptical expression, Su Yunxi picked up her laptop and searched for Wei Shen. A page quickly appeared.
"See!" Su Yunxi said.
Chen Xuan looked at it, and his eyes widened with each word.
Wei Yidong won the gold medal in the Olympiad competition at the age of 16 with a perfect score.
After that, due to his outstanding mathematical achievements, he was eligible for direct admission to Tsinghua and Peking Universities. However, Wei Yidong chose to stay at Jiangnan University, which was closer to his home.
This embarrassed Tsinghua and Peking Universities, as no one had ever refused their offer of direct admission before. Therefore, they sent their top mathematicians to challenge Wei Yidong, but they were all defeated by him, and he became famous overnight.
During his university years, Wei Yidong won one Olympic gold medal after another, becoming a legend in the mathematical world, and was revered as Wei Shen!
After that, Harvard University broke its century-old rules to recruit Wei Yidong, offering him a scholarship of millions and allowing him to not take English exams, but Wei Yidong rejected them all.
More recently, an interesting incident occurred. A team of five post-doctoral researchers worked on a mathematical problem for over four months without solving it. Later, someone found Wei Yidong, and he solved the problem in just one night.
However, Wei Yidong denied this incident, and its authenticity is unknown.
After reading this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but exclaim, "I initially thought he was an idiot, but after reading it, I realized I was the idiot. This guy is a genius!"
"Who says not."
Su Yunxi also said, "Regarding the last incident, someone from Professor Long's team knows one of the five post-doctoral researchers and confirmed that it did happen, but Wei Shen is extremely low-key and denied it."
Chen Xuan was completely speechless. He never expected this academic prodigy to be so low-key.
