Xu Ji replied "I don't know", everyone thought that he was admitting defeat, but Kou Daogu felt that he could continue to argue.

Yan Wei, who was passing the word, blushed on his face, bowed deeply, and said, "The disciple is short-sighted and has failed to understand the deep meaning of Mr., ashamed, ashamed. ”

"You didn't understand it, but you should. But Xu Ji's answer may also be just a coincidence, and I want to ask a second question. ”

"The disciple is willing to go and spread the word."

"You may not be suitable, do you know the general trend of the world and the trend of the heroes?"

"Uh...... Have a smattering of. ”

"It's not enough to know a little bit about it, you have to be familiar with the situation and understand the direction." Kou Daogu looked at the prince of Jibei.

Zhang Shiyu was both annoyed and embarrassed, with his status, how could he be a messenger? But he couldn't admit that he didn't understand the situation in the Quartet, and reluctantly smiled: "It's just a word, do you need to be so troublesome?" ”

"Xu Ji suddenly abdicated when the situation was good, and I only thought about it after hearing about it. Whether Xu Ji's move is to steal the name or has another hidden secret, it is very important to have to do it as a last resort. So someone has to tell him about the general situation in the world and see how he responds. ”

Zhang Shiyu himself also wanted to find out what his brother-in-law really thought, glanced at the onlooker and the entourage in the distance, he could find someone else to pass the word, he was also familiar with the general trend of the world, he might say it more clearly than him, and after thinking about it, he decided to go by himself.

"I'll go for a trip, does Mr. Kou still have an explanation?" Since Zhang Shiyu was going, he had to behave willingly, and his tone became respectful.

Kou Daogu shook his head, "You can say whatever you want." ”

"Okay, please wait with you for a while."

The prince of Jibei was willing to be driven, leaving everyone with doubts and dissatisfaction, but they did not dare to speak at this time, and they looked around, but they refused to look at Guandao.

Yan Wei sincerely respects Kou Daogu, named Senior Brother, in fact, he already recognizes him as a teacher, seeing that the scene is a little embarrassing, so he opened his mouth to resolve it, and he also wants to make a name for the new teacher.

"Mr. Yu, the disciple has doubts, can you ask?"

"Ask."

"The gentleman asked, 'Is the Tao visible?' Do you know? Xu Ji replied "I don't know", I think Xu Ji admits defeat, why does Mr. think the debate can continue? ”

Even in the face of the reverent, Kou Daogu would sneer, "For example, if you fish with bait, can the bait be bigger than the fish?" ”

"Of course not, the bait is less than one percent of the fish, one point, the bait is much smaller than the fish, the natural principle is also, if the bait is too big, the fish is difficult to swallow, even if there is a good case, the big bait fishing small fish, is not worth the loss."

"But then words are bait? For the fish? ”

Yan Wei was a smart person, and immediately arched his hand and said, "The disciple seems to have understood." ”

"Stand down."

Yan Wei walked away and stood on a tree to ponder.

The others still didn't understand too much, but they were too embarrassed to ask.

Fan Sect disciple Yu Zhan once argued with Xu Ji, and retreated in defeat, he was always unconvinced in his heart, he was very concerned about this confrontation, and stepped forward and said, "Senior Brother Kou, can you speak more clearly?" ”

Kou Daogu sighed lightly, as if he was a little impatient, but he still spoke: "To put it more clearly, I am Fan Shu." ”

Kou Daogu despised the ancestor so much, and the disciples of the Fan Sect were all angry, but they didn't dare to refute it easily, for fear of being humiliated.

Yu Zhan said: "It's a blessing to be able to get the teaching of 'Mr. Fan' again. ”

"I try to be as straightforward as possible: Fan shuts up the Tao, the words come out of his mouth, the words fall on the paper, you ask with your own ears, see with your own eyes, are those words the Tao?"

"Yes...... Right, how can we be enlightened without the words left by our ancestors? ”

Kou Daogu leaned over and picked up a stone and handed it to Yu Zhan: "Take it." ”

Yu Zhan was stunned for a moment, slowly stretched out his hand, and took the stone, not knowing what it meant.

"I'll give it, you take it. But when I give it, you can't receive it? ”

"This ...... No, it's too simple. ”

"Can everyone understand the text of Fan Shu's discourse?"

"It depends on the level of understanding, Senior Brother Kou thinks that we have a low level of understanding, and there are people who are lower than us......"

"However, Fan Shu's words are not as good as this stone, the stone can be received by everyone, but the words are not acceptable to everyone."

An Chongqian couldn't help but interject: "If this person is blind and can't see the stone, what if he has no hands and can't catch the stone?" ”

"Hey." Kou Daogu refused to answer such a simple question.

Yu Zhan replied for him: "Senior Brother An is biased, Senior Brother Kou means that the stones are real, the words are empty, and they have nothing to do with the eyes and hands. ”

Yu Zhan flipped over and threw away the stones.

"If it doesn't matter, don't make analogies." An Chongqian muttered.

Yu Zhan continued: "Words are bait, avenues are fish, even if they are said to be wildly and written in a shocking way, they are only used for fishing, and sticking to words is to stick to small bait and forget about big fish." ”

Kou Daogu nodded slightly, and then shook his head again, "You have stayed under Fan's closed door for too long, and occasionally you have a small understanding, and it will be difficult to realize it in the end." ”

Yu Zhan is known for his strong temperament, but at this time, he has no temper at all, and obediently retreats.

An old gentleman couldn't stand it and said: "No matter what, fishing always has to use bait, which just shows that the text cannot be wasted." ”

Kou Daogu sneered, "Of course, words can't be wasted, without words, you will be stunned for the rest of your life, and even Xiaowu will be gone." Fan Guan's doubts in his later years are precisely here, he teaches you to be enlightened, handy, and if you want to be enlightened, you can't do it. ”

Kou Daogu is in his thirties, looking even younger, the old gentleman is called "Er", and his face is a little unbearable, "To put it nicely, what are your so-called avenues, great doubts, and great understandings?" Speak it out and listen to it, and let everyone refer to it in detail. ”

Kou Daogu turned his face away again, refusing to answer.

Yan Wei walked from under the tree and said, "Mr. Shen still hasn't understood? When you understand the Tao with the Tao, you can't understand the Tao, Mr. Shen wants to 'say it', but he has fallen behind, and Xu Gongzi said that he 'doesn't know', but he has peeked into the door. ”

Mr. Shen also sneered, but the power was much smaller, more like a bluff retreat than a direct attack, "According to his analogy, is he going to fish for fish?" ”

"There is still an end to words, for example, it is a temporary convenience, not exhaustive, but needs to be stopped." Yan Wei replied.

Mr. Shen laughed a few times and turned to his companion, "What Mr. Kou means: he understands, others don't understand, if you ask, you are not qualified to understand, if you want to understand like him, you have to be as mysterious as him." No wonder Mr. Fan is reluctant to recognize him as an apprentice, one is pragmatic, the other is pragmatic, and the opposite is true. ”

Only two people perfunctorily agreed, and everyone else was thinking, not necessarily completely agreeing with Kou Daogu's statement, and there were some thoughts in their hearts.

On the other hand, Zhang Shiyu's task is relatively simple, and he doesn't have to talk about any big truths, and he doesn't even need to make special preparations, so it's very easy.

At the door of Xu Ji's residence, Zhang Shiyu stopped and was surprised to see his sister Zhang Shiqing striding towards with a group of women.

"What are you doing here? Don't you want to see him? ”

Zhang Shiqing and more than a dozen of her companions have been completely conquered by Feng Juniang.

The art of argumentation, Feng Juniang only learned for less than a month, just to relieve boredom, she is a helpless weak woman, circling among the leaders of the Descendant Army and their wives, although the reputation is poor, but has been living very well, and can win the favor of Niu Tiannu, relying on not being bitter and mean, but will please people, no matter whether the other party is a man or a woman, she can please people.

Arguing to establish authority, currying favor to win people, Feng Juniang naturally combined these two tricks into one.

In her description, Xu Ji is the world's first-class amorous man, and he never forgets the lord of Fangde County, and marrying the daughter of the descending king is forced by the situation, not voluntary, and the only thing in his heart is still the original wife.

When Xu Ji was called king, he defeated all the officers and soldiers in a row, but he retreated in the face of the Jingzhou army, because his father-in-law, King Jibei, was in the opponent's army, and he was afraid of hurting his father-in-law, so he had no shame to come to see his wife.

In order to return to his wife, Xu Ji retired from the army, abdicated, and retired - letting the golden saint go to Qinzhou is considered a retirement.

There were many flaws in Feng Juniang's words, but the listeners didn't care, they were all moved, and several people even shed tears.

Feng Juniang not only praised Xu Ji, but also cited her own experience as evidence, feeling how rare a loving person is.

For these girls, Feng Juniang's experience is so rich that she can make a world of her own, and each paragraph can surprise them and open their eyes.

Feng Juniang observed the words and looks, and soon saw the status of the women, and guessed who had already decided to marry and whether she was satisfied with her future husband, so she took advantage of the situation, and finally became the women who rushed to tell the secrets in their hearts and asked her for guidance.

Zhang Shiqing has already married, but he is still unmarried, and other girls are married when they are in the Eastern Capital, and their fiancés either did not come to Yecheng, or they fled and their lives and deaths are unknown, or they have already joined the army and are about to go to war, two of them are unlucky, the marriage date is set, but the fiancé died on the battlefield.

In their eyes, Feng Juniang, who met for the first time, was more understanding than her mother and sister, and many things that could not be said at home could be poured out at this time.

Kou Daogu won the respect of the scholars one by one in front of the grave, and Feng Juniang also won the favor of twelve noble ladies at the same time in the tent.

Zhang Shiqing was still a little puzzled and asked, "...... him Do you really care so much about me? ”

"Why did Xu Gongzi abdicate only in the face of the king of Jibei? The world is so big, why do you just come to Yecheng for refuge? Why don't you go into the city? There can only be one explanation for all this. ”

"But...... He used to seem reluctant to marry me. ”

"Xu Gongzi's face is cold and warm, and things are often like this, the farther away from the county lord, the more Xu Gongzi misses the county lord, and the deeper the affection is because of it."

Zhang Shiqing felt a little guilty, "But I've already divorced him......"

Feng Juniang said with a smile: "The most loving husband and wife occasionally quarrel, the county lord Hugh Fu, it's just a joke, will Xu Gongzi take it seriously?" ”

"I don't have a good face for him either."

"But you've never forgotten him in your heart?"

"Didn't you?" Zhang Shiqing himself is not sure.

"Otherwise, why did the county lord come to think about the valley?"

"I'm here to ask for sin, and even if he marries another wife outside, he still has ...... When Sister Ju came back, I didn't know what Sister Ju was, but I listened to the rumors and thought you were ...... Vixen, he used you to humiliate our family, so I ......"

"A misunderstanding. If I can make Xu Gongzi tempted, I will never follow him to Yecheng, but persuade him to go to seclusion elsewhere. To tell you the truth, Xu Gongzi's deep affection has indeed moved me, but unfortunately, I can't make Xu Gongzi a little more blue-eyed when I use my whole body skills. I was able to face the county lord calmly today precisely because nothing happened. I admire Mr. Xu's personality, and I also envy the county lord for marrying a good husband. ”

Zhang Shiqing was puzzled, the "Xu Gongzi" described by Feng Juniang and the "Lou Ji" in her memory are not like the same person, but they are so real and credible that she can't doubt them.

Feng Juniang felt that it was almost over, and persuaded: "Since the county lord is here, let's go and see Xu Gongzi to comfort his lovesickness and save his life." ”

The women persuaded one after another, but Zhang Shiqing couldn't refuse, so he went out of the account together half-pushed and half-on-the-spot, came to Xu Ji's residence, and met his brother outside the door.

"What are you doing here?" Zhang Shiyu asked.

"I'll ...... See your own husband. Zhang Shi replied confidently.

Zhang Shiyu was completely confused, feeling that there was something evil here, and everyone was acting strangely.

Feng Juniang secretly "advised" Xu Ji in the house not to show too obvious flaws.
