Lu Bu opened his mouth and said:

"Lord Yue, it is precisely because we have experienced hardships that we should stand up so that the people around us and those behind us do not have to repeat the mistakes of the past."

Cai Yong's hand holding the teacup shook slightly,

His eyes looked at Lu Bu in surprise.

Lu Bu bowed his head slightly and continued:

"There is a way that the predecessors planted trees and the later people enjoyed the shade. Isn't everything we do today just for future generations to live better and happier? ”

Lu Bu saw Cai Yong nodding in agreement,

Then he continued:

"That's why we're trying to do everything we have to do. There will certainly be suffering in this process, and it is precisely these sufferings that allow us to grow, give us valuable experience, and guide us to avoid detours and take precautions on the road ahead. ”

The light in Cai Yong's eyes became brighter and brighter,

Nodding his head, he continued:

"A lesson from the past, a teacher from the future."

"What Lord Yue-sama said is right. Therefore, the hardships that you older generation have experienced are precious treasures for future generations. It is precisely because of this that my son-in-law asked you to raise the matter of forming a school. At the same time, I also think that Mr. Lu is really a very suitable candidate for this important responsibility. ”

Cai Yong gently put down the teacup in his hand,

looked at Lu Bu seriously,

There was a look of relief in his eyes.

"Fengxian, you are becoming more and more mature."

Lu Bu hurriedly bowed and saluted:

"This is all the teacher's teaching, and the students are really ashamed."

Looking at Lu Bu's gaze,

The look of relief became more and more intense,

Said lightly:

"You kid, let's call the old man and father-in-law, it sounds comfortable. Hahahaha. ”

Seeing that Cai Yong regained his spirits,

Lu Bu beat the snake and said with a stick:

"The son-in-law respectfully obeys the orders of the father-in-law."

"Hahahaha, you kid. No wonder Wen Ji always said that you are the most pleasing to people, it seems that not only your ladies, but even me, an old man, can't escape it. Don't worry, I will try my best to convince Lu Zigan, but this person's personality is a little stubborn, and you don't put all your hopes on me. ”

"Please rest assured, this son-in-law will naturally save it."

Lu Bu clenched his fists and said to Cai Yong.

Now that it's in the depths of winter,

The whole northern country is covered in a row of silver,

The scorching sun in winter spreads its rays on the earth,

Reflected on the snow,

It's so dazzling that you can't open your eyes.

In the northern part of the new county of the state,

There is a county town called Yunzhong,

It is located at the junction of Xinxing County and Yanmen County.

A team of people in the snow,

Walked in the direction of Jinyang with difficulty.

The wind and snow are fluttering,

The bitter north wind hits people's faces like a blade,

Under this bad weather,

Very few people travel far away.

But this team of people looks like dusty people,

Apparently after a long journey,

Riding in two carriages,

Each carriage was dragged by four tall horses,

Even so,

The carriage was still moving very slowly.

These two carriages, though not very ornate,

But the eight horses pulling the cart were all good horses of the grassland,

Just by looking at these horses, you can see that the owner of the carriage is not a mortal.

The horses pulling the carts were covered with countless frosts,

Obviously, such weather is unbearable for any living being.

The driver of a car in front of him cowered,

At this time, the carriage door behind him slowly opened a gap,

An old voice came from within,

"Lu Yuan, where are we now?"

Lu Yuan is the driver of the car,

Wipe away the frost on the tips of your eyebrows with your hands,

I saw that this was a young man in his twenties.

He shook his head and looked forward with great difficulty.

Then he replied:

"Back to the eldest master, we should only be about thirty miles away from the clouds, the wind and snow are too big, it is really difficult to move forward. So it's slower. ”

After the man in the carriage had heard the report,

Silent for a long time,

With a long sigh,

But no sound was heard.

Lu Yuan waited for a while,

Still not hearing the commands of the people in the carriage,

Finally, I couldn't help but ask:

"Sir."

"What's wrong?"

The old voice in the carriage sounded again.

"Master, please forgive the villain. We've all left the Jizhou border. It's been two days since we entered Bingzhou, so the Yuan family definitely didn't dare to come to catch up, why are we still in such a hurry? ”

The man in the carriage then replied:

"Lu Yuan, listen well."

After a pause, Lu Yuan, who was driving, hurriedly pricked up his ears.

Then the old voice came again,

In the chapter "Mencius: Dedication to the Heart", the second sentence. Mencius said: 'If it is not fate, it is obeyed by it, so those who know their fate do not stand under the rock wall.' Those who die in their own way are righteous; Shackling the dead is not the right fate. 'Do you know what you mean?' ”

Lu Yuan tilted his head and thought about it,

Somewhat uncertain, he replied:

"Master, what this is saying is that everything is destined by heaven, and conforming to the destiny of heaven is the right way. He who understands the Mandate of Heaven does not stand under the gables. It is a normal destiny to die if you try your best to fulfill your mission; But if a person commits a crime or is trapped and dies, it is not a normal destiny. ”

"Hehehehe, yes, yes, there has been a lot of progress."

The old man's voice came with joy.

A slight flush appeared on Lu Yuan's face,

Apparently hearing this man's praise,

He was very happy.

After laughing, the old voice went on to explain:

Literally, it means as you say. But how can the meaning of the saint be so simple? What he wants to tell the world is that you must stay away from dangerous places. There are two meanings in this: the first meaning refers to the need to take precautions, detect potential dangers in advance, and take corresponding preventive measures; The second meaning is that if you find yourself in danger, you should need to leave in time. ”

Lu Yuan listened carefully to the old man's explanation,

Keep these carefully in mind.

There was a "squeak", and the door of the carriage was slowly opened.

The bitter wind immediately blew into the carriage,

Sweep away the warmth in the carriage,

Lu Yuan's face changed drastically:

"Master, it's windy outside, how can you ......?"

A withered palm patted him lightly on the shoulder,

A thin old man with gray hair,

Leaning out of the carriage,

The old man has a clear face,

But it is recognizable,

When he was young, he must have been a handsome guy.

His face was resolute, and his eyes flashed from time to time,

Jimu looked at the outside environment,

A faint smile appeared on the old man's face and said:

"Lu Yuan, you really think of me as a bad old man. The old man has been riding a horse for half his life, will he be afraid of this little wind and snow? ”

Lu Yuan still wanted to speak,

Again he was interrupted by the old man,

"I know you care about the old man, although it is warm in this carriage, it is really too stuffy."

The old man turned around and closed the door of the carriage,

tightened the big puff on the body,

sat next to Lu Yuan,

Exhale a mouthful of white dragon,

"Whew—it's still so comfortable."

Turning his head to see the concerned and helpless look in Lu Yuan's eyes,

I couldn't help but laugh and said:

"You kid, hahaha. Come on, come on, the master will continue to tell you the question just now. ”

Gently patted the snow that fell on his head,

The old man's gaze deepened,

Said lightly:

"Do you think we're not in danger right now?"

Lu Yuan tilted his head and thought about it,

Then he nodded lightly and did not speak.

A glint flashed in the old man's eyes,

"Do you know why Yuan Shao sent someone to find me?"

Lu Yuan replied as a matter of course:

"Naturally, he wants to ask the master to be his military advisor, haven't you been here several times before?"

The old man nodded, then shook his head again.

Lu Yuan didn't understand what the old man meant,

Scratching his head, he asked:

"Sir, what do you mean by nodding and shaking your head?"

The old man squinted at Lu Yuan,

sighed slightly in my heart; The kid was a little more reckless.

However, he patiently explained:

"I mean, you're only half right."

"Half?"

nodded, and the old man no longer sold the guanzi,

"Yuan Shao, he really wants to ask me to work for him, but if I don't agree, he will kill me."

Although the old man's tone was indifferent,

But there was a hint of evil in the words that spoke,

It makes the cold wind seem even colder.

Lu Yuan, who was beside him, shuddered unconsciously,

Asked with some incredulity:

"Master, although Yuan Shao is the fourth and third duke, but you are also famous all over the world, how dare he do it to you?"

"Hmph." The old man sneered,

There was a strong sarcasm in his eyes.

"The Fourth and Third Princes? So what? It seems that these so-called famous families have done less dirty and pickled things? Although I, Lu Zhi and Lu Zigan, have a lot of reputation, I am just an ant in their eyes. My life and death are not valued by them. When the time comes, it is only necessary to put the blame on others. ”

Lu Yuan still couldn't believe it,

Continue to ask:

"But why did he kill you, sir?"

"Alas——!"

Shaking his head slightly and sighing,

Lu Zhi raised his head and looked into the distance,

There was a faint look of sadness on his face.

"In the seventh year of Guanghe, the old man was framed by a traitor and imprisoned, and then experienced Dong Zhuo's chaotic government, and came to this military capital mountain to live in seclusion in frustration. In the past, there were Gongsun Bogui and Liu Xuande, both of whom were my disciples. Yuan Shao invited me at that time, and although I refused many times, he did not dare to use force on me. But now, Bogui has been defeated and died, Xuande is nowhere to be found, I have lost my support, how can Yuan Shao still be willing to accommodate me, this is one thing; Second, these two disciples are my favorite, the world knows, but the end of the end is all thanks to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao must be afraid in his heart, if I can't be used by him, I must be afraid that I will wait for the opportunity to retaliate, how can I still be allowed to live in the world? ”

Lu Yuan was dumbfounded when he heard Lu Zhi's narration,

He didn't think that

There is so much inside information in this.

Lu Zhi glanced at the young man beside him,

I smiled helplessly in my heart,

He shook his head, but didn't speak.

I was stunned for a long time,

Lu Yuan came back to his senses at this time,

opened his mouth and asked Lu Zhi:

"Master, then let's go to Jinyang to defect to Lu Bu and avenge Yuan Shao?"

"Revenge?" Lu Yuan raised his head,

The eyes burned, and a blazing flame burned in it,

Faintly, it seems to be becoming more and more vigorous.

Suddenly, he let out a long sigh of gloom,

Gently closed his eyes,

When it opened again after a while,

The eyes regained their depth.

Shaking his head, he said a little lonely:

"The old man is tired."

Although it is only four words,

But it seems to be healed again,

It contains too much bitterness, bitterness and exhaustion,

Although Lu Yuan is young,

But I also deeply understand Lu Zhi's past,

was by this sentence,

I almost burst into tears.

Lu Zhi rubbed Lu Yuan's head,

Opened a smile and smiled:

"Boy, why are you doing this? The old man went to Jinyang to defect to Na Lu Bu. It's just that he was entrusted by his old friend Cai Bojiao to help him proofread some classics. Now I don't want to ask about these trivial matters anymore, I just want to live quietly and die. ”

Lu Yuan didn't understand Lu Zhi's thoughts very much,

He's just young and vigorous,

The age of longing for fame and fortune,

often takes his own master Lu Zhi as an example,

And proud to be able to be Lu Zhi's retainer,

But now listening to Lu Zhi's words,

But he doesn't seem to want to repeat his military career,

I couldn't help but ask:

"Master, but are you willing?"

"Willing?" Lu Zhi repeated in a low voice,

There was a thick reluctance in his eyes,

Even behind that reluctance,

There is also a deep unwillingness.

How could he be willing to give up,

And how can you be willing to give it?

When he was young, he set up a grand wish to help the community and help the world.

He once studied under Taiwei Chen Qiu and Daru Ma Rong,

I studied hard only to be able to achieve my wish one day in the future.

Finally, the hard work paid off,

With the ability of both civil and military,

Rose to prominence in the imperial court,

However, several times the ups and downs of the sea,

But finally made him soberly realize,

Today's court has decayed irretrievably,

All the wishes of a lifetime have come to naught,

A piece of ruthless loyalty in exchange for only suspicion and frame-up.

Eventually, when he found himself powerless to change all this,

When you can no longer fulfill your wish to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty,

The loss and confusion in my heart can't be overgained,

In addition to the depraved self-abandonment,

He didn't have any ideas anymore.

Now, the only thing he is still keen on is - delving into knowledge,

At least, at least he thinks he's a good teacher.

Although the two most proud disciples,

One dead, one missing,

But it can't be denied that the two of them are excellent,

Therefore, when I learned about my friend's preparation for the college,

Then I gladly went,

Perhaps, it would be good to be able to teach a few more excellent disciples in the second half of his life.

Looking at the cold wind,

Dancing snowflakes,

Lu Zhi said to himself secretly.

"Master, then Liu Bei, are we going to look for it?"

"Xuande ......" Lu Zhi stroked his beard,

Liu Bei's face couldn't help but appear in front of him,

Although I don't like this disciple very much,

But after all, he is the only excellent disciple under his disciples.

Sighing firmly, he said:

"Xuande, this kid has great luck, he will definitely not die easily, he must be found."
