On the second floor of the Wenge, everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high, and soon made a table of dishes, and there was a large circular table on the second floor of the Wenge, which was enough for 100 people to eat together, and all the gentlemen who read the papers brought the food they had made to the large circular table.

Mr. Wang Shuhan made a large pot of fish soup, and the aroma filled the second floor of the entire Wenge.

"Mr. Big's cooking skills are indeed quite good, although he is a mortal, he is very good at knives, he can slice meat like a piece of tissue paper, the meat is thin enough to thread a needle, and the cutting speed is very fast, quite skillful. Tang Wenshan said to Jiang Dongyu, while smelling the fragrance of this fish soup, he was a little greedy, even as a person who doesn't like to eat fish and pick thorns, Tang Wenshan still wants to drink fish soup and eat a piece of fish.

Wang Shuhan came to the main seat of the circular table, took off his previous fishy coat and put it on the chair.

"Gentlemen, please take your seats. ”

After everyone was seated in an orderly manner, Wang Shuhan spoke: "Two years ago, there was a full score paper in Wenge, and his test paper is now hidden on the sixth floor of Wenge. ”

Jiang Dongyu got up, first saluted Wang Shuhan, and then looked at the gentlemen sitting on both sides of the ring table, and said: "Jiang Dongyu has seen all the seniors, thanks to the grace, I can come here, it is an honor, Wenge forbids alcohol, I only toast three glasses of tea instead of wine." ”

Jiang Dongyu took out three wine glasses, which contained tea that was not wine, he raised one glass and drank it all.

"A cup to God. ”

"A glass of respect. ”

"A toast. ”

The last cup is Mr. Jingda, all the gentlemen here, and all the gentlemen here, three cups.

"Tongjing!" The gentlemen present raised their glasses, looking at Jiang Dongyu's eyes were all recognized, there was no intrigue in the Wenge, no one despised Jiang Dongyu because he was young, and no one was jealous because Jiang Dongyu was valued by Wang Shuhan, for no other reason, just because their hearts were strong enough, and those who were full of poetry and books respected heaven and earth and were not afraid of ghosts and gods.

"Eat. Wang Shuhan spoke, but he didn't move immediately, and then folded his hands and prayed.

Looking at Jiang Dongyu's puzzled gaze, Tang Wenshan explained: "Mr. Big's father starved to death, but as the imperial chef of the palace, this way of death is really sad, since then, Mr. Big has to thank God every time he eats so that he can have a full meal." ”

Jiang Dongyu didn't ask why he was starved to death as a palace chef, this should be Mr. Big's wound, he didn't want to know, but he could understand Mr. Big's approach, people must have faith, faith can be God, it can be gods and Buddhas, it can be the country, it can even be itself, faith can be anything, only faith makes people feel awe, do not determine right and wrong by preference, and do not mess with the common people with selfish desires.

Jiang Dongyu also has faith, if you want to say what his belief is, it should be described in two words, that is, culture!

Famous books and ancient books are culture, brick and tile are culture, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are culture, dancing knives and swords are culture, human development has been millions of years, and the cultural precipitation of it makes Jiang Dongyu dare not look at no one and be arrogant.

The next day, Jiang Dongyu read the test papers of the four Peach Blossom Town, Jiang Dongyu really knows the handwriting of his classmates, and one of them is still Henghu's test paper, his accuracy rate is extremely high, the speed is also very fast, 50% of the guessing rate, at the same time, Henghu through his own efforts in the past two years, its own foundation is firm, if Jiang Dongyu will give Henghu's test paper to a pertinent score, then Henghu's paper score will even exceed the first test paper read by Jiang Dongyu, is expected to become this year's champion, and such a result is not Henghu's real results, Jiang Dongyu just wants to let Taohua Town's classmates pass the town exam, and at the same time hope that his friends' scores are as high as possible, but such a result completely broke the balance of the exam, Henghu is still like this, what about Li Tianyi, what about Jiang Tianyu, how can their scores not be high?

For a while, Jiang Dongyu fell into deep thought, and he didn't dare to mark the score on Henghu's test paper for a long time.

Jiang Dongyu thought of the mirror in the first test paper, high-ranking officials have no livelihood, and profits come and go, if that test paper can get the first place in the literary test, but because Jiang Dongyu broke the rules and everyone is unknown, then how can Jiang Dongyu's heart be at ease?

"I was wrong. Jiang Dongyu showed deep remorse, he was wrong!

"Mr. Big. Jiang Dongyu raised his head, and his voice was firm.

"What's wrong?" Wang Shuhan frowned, looking at Jiang Dongyu's gaze with some bad premonitions.

"Please cancel all the test results of the people in Peach Blossom Town this time, I guessed half of the exam questions with the painting path and leaked out, which seriously damaged the balance of the exam, this matter is only my fault, Jiang Dongyu is willing to bear it, I just hope that Mr. Big can re-write the question, so that the people of Peach Blossom Town can retake the exam once. When Jiang Dongyu told the truth, the depression in his heart finally disappeared.

Wang Shuhan was silent, guessing the question is not a crime, which one of the school teaching is not to guess the town exam questions, it's just that no one can guess it, at most he has done similar questions, but Jiang Dongyu guessed more than half of the original questions like Jiang Dongyu is unprecedented, how to judge, only in his thoughts.

The hundred gentlemen of Wenge all stopped reading the papers at hand and waited for Mr. Big's choice.

"You don't need to read the papers for the time being, go to the ninth floor of the Wenge and come down for three days. ”

"Yes. Jiang Dongyu didn't ask about the handling of the candidates in Peach Blossom Town, he can't think about anything else now, and he always has to pay the price for doing something wrong.

After Jiang Dongyu left, Tang Wenshan spoke: "I haven't been to the ninth floor of the Wen Pavilion, you let him go up this is considered a punishment?"

Wang Shuhan glared at Tang Wenshan and said angrily: "Shut up, don't tell me you don't know about this." ”

Tang Wenshan was taught by Wang Shuhan in public, showing a slight smile, in terms of age, he is older than Wang Shuhan, but he is a Taoist, not old, Tang Wenshan said indifferently: "Seeing that half of your feet are about to enter the ground, I don't care about you." ”

Wang Shuhan blew his beard and pointed at Tang Wenshan: "You get out of me." ”

"Virtue, I don't want to be confined here yet. Tang Wenshan also moved the real fire, waved his big hand, and left the Wenge directly.

"Continue to read the papers!" Wang Shuhan said in a deep voice, everyone was silent, and hurriedly began to read the papers at hand.

The ninth floor of the pavilion is as empty as a wilderness, and only a humanoid statue is placed in the center.

As the supreme level of the Wen Pavilion, there are very few people who can come here, but Jiang Dongyu didn't expect that there is nothing else here except a statue.

"Who is this person?" Jiang Dongyu wondered in his heart, he came to the statue, with piety in his heart, the statue that could be placed at the top of the Wenge Pavilion must be a saint-like existence of the Wenzong.

When he got closer, Jiang Dongyu found that at the foot of the statue, there was an article carved on the ground.

"Lao Tzu 5,000 Wen!" Jiang Dongyu was shocked in his heart, it is rumored that Lao Tzu's 5,000 Wen is the wisdom of the sage, expounding the truth of heaven and earth, as large as the universe is reasonable, and there are exceptions to the small to deal with people and things, and Lao Tzu is one of the three saints of the literati, but Lao Tzu's 5,000 Wen is circulated in the world is lacking, a few sentences are not comprehensive, Jiang Dongyu has read three words and felt very deeply.

"The good is like water, the water is good for all things without fighting, and it is evil for everyone, so it is more than the Tao. ”

The meaning of this sentence is that the superior goodness is like water, and the manifestation of water goodness lies in nourishing all things without fighting for merit, and being willing to live in the spurn of everyone, so water is closest to the great way.

However, every word of Lao Tzu's 5,000 texts can be understood in many ways, is it true that the good is like water to let the warriors enter the Tao with water in the future? Yes and no, is it to tell people what the real good is? Yes and no, is it to tell the superior how to govern the country? Yes and no, every word can be repeatedly scrutinized, no matter how you think about it, but it is very reasonable, and no one can overturn it.

"The road is wasted, there is benevolence and righteousness, wisdom comes out, there is great hypocrisy, there is discord between the six relatives, there is filial piety, the country is chaotic, and there are loyal ministers. ”

"Those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are clear." The winner is powerful, and the self-winner is strong. Those who are content are rich, those who are forced have ambitions, those who do not lose their place for a long time, and those who die do not die. ”

This is the fragment that Jiang Dongyu has read in ancient books, and the truth in it is that Jiang Dongyu can't read it thoroughly.

And now he's lucky enough to see the whole thing!

"It's a good way, it's a very good way. The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. From the first chapter, Jiang Dongyu began to read, he read very slowly, every sentence had to be thought about repeatedly, asked, scrutinized, until he couldn't figure it out before moving on to the next chapter, as for trying to figure it out, there was no way to figure it all out, at least temporarily.

Jiang Dongyu knelt in front of the statue of Lao Tzu, like a devout believer observing the classics of the saint, with a sacred and solemn expression.

"Faith is not beautiful, good words are not believed. The good do not argue, and the debater is not good. Those who know are not knowledgeable, and those who are knowledgeable do not know. The saint does not accumulate, because he thinks that the more he has, the more he has with others. The way of heaven is beneficial but not harmful. The way of the saint is indisputable. After reading the eighty-first chapter, Jiang Dongyu fell asleep, he was too tired.

In his sleep, he returned to the school to read in the morning, he saw that the world was not opened, he saw the sage Venerable, asked with him, asked for advice, he also saw Lao Tzu riding a bull to the west and left only Lao Tzu 5,000 Wen, he saw too much, three thousand years ago, the king was mediocre and the people were not living, two hundred years later, the holy monarch quelled the chaos, established the country Haichuan, and after another three hundred years, the traitor was in charge, the loyal minister came out, and the traitor was sent to the guillotine with a 10,000-character document, and finally sent the traitor to the guillotine, and then five hundred years, the two countries were at war, the Haichuan Empire fell to seven cities, and the Lingfeng Empire slaughtered the city, Recapture the city, other countries dare not commit again, since then, the Haichuan Empire has been heavily armed by the whole people, but there is only a Wen Pavilion but no Wu Pavilion in the imperial city.

"The reason why the human race was able to develop the Five Domains was not because someone had achieved the immortal king, but because the barbarians were civilized, and only after they had wisdom could someone be at the top of the Dao. A voice came from Jiang Dongyu's ears.

"Who are you?" Jiang Dongyu wanted to speak, but he couldn't say it, he suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that he had a big dream.

Jiang Dongyu knelt in front of the statue again, knelt three times and bowed nine times, respecting Lao Tzu, respecting scriptures, and respecting wisdom.

His mentality has changed subtly, Jiang Dongyu in the past has no righteousness in his heart, he hates the lack of heaven and the palace to make me lose my parents, he hates that there is no laughter in his childhood, and the occasional warmth is not enough to melt the pain in his heart, and he will not sacrifice himself for others, which is a stupid act.

Now, Jiang Dongyu still won't sacrifice himself, at least he thinks so, but he is willing to try to do something, maybe for the common people, or maybe for the worthless scholarly anger.

He has been moved, and he is willing to move others, which is cause and effect and reincarnation.

It is not uncommon for people who have no faith to be terrible, but even more terrible for those who have never had warmth in their hearts, who have not felt any warmth since birth.
