"What's the good thing?" Zhuangzi asked with a smile.

"I finally saw and heard that you were eating and drinking at the same table with the two brothers, the beggar and the beggar, and preaching to them. Are you talking about your 'theory of death', your philosophy of death? ”

The senior brother in black was not polite, came to the table, lifted the hem of his clothes, and sat down beside Mai'er.

Zhuangzi smiled: "I thought it was a good thing? Didn't I preach to the two brothers all the time? It's just that! One is indirect preaching, and the other is direct preaching! I didn't eat with them before, but I was preaching, right? I'm telling them where I stand! If they don't change their way, I'll kill them at any time! In that sense, isn't this also preaching? ”

"You cow! You cow! You've got a point! The black-clothed senior brother didn't like to listen to it, and waved his arm at Zhuangzi.

"But! There is really a good thing today! ”

"What's good?" The seller asked a little impatiently.

The two beggar brothers also looked at the senior brother in black, not knowing what a good thing it was. After getting along for a period of time, the two brothers' impression of the senior brother in black is getting better and better! Even! More than the two grey cloaks of their saviors.

Maybe it's because the brother in black was also a wicked person, and they had a common experience. In addition, during this period of time, the senior brother in black preached to them when he was free.

"Tell me! What's good? Zhuangzi urged.

Mai'er moved his own chopsticks and wine glass, put them in front of the black-clothed brother, and motioned for the black-clothed senior brother to eat and drink. She got up and went to the kitchen, where she brought another set of cutlery.

"Now the lacquer garden! Ever since you preached, things have changed! It's changed again! The senior brother in black looked very excited and said.

"How has it changed?" Zhuangzi asked.

"Now! The enthusiasm of the people of Qiyuan is very high, and they have all accepted your idea of war preparedness! All the people are soldiers, and every household is stepping up military training! Oh! You don't know! It's all upside down. All the people who are active in every family have joined the ranks of martial arts training. Even children who have just learned to walk practice martial arts behind adults. Qiyuan people, labor and production during the day, and practice martial arts at night to strengthen the body.

Our Dharma Protectors, and those who know martial arts, are very popular! They were all asked to be coaches. Yes! All of them are fragrant and spicy! Oh! That positivity. ”

"Oh!" Zhuangzi nodded in satisfaction.

"I tell you! Don't talk about us, I know! You must say that we Dharma Protectors only teach others martial arts, not preach! We were helping the villagers with farm work during the day, while preaching. In the evening, while teaching martial arts, he also taught them the principles of being a human being, and taught them Taoist doctrines and thoughts......"

"Good!" Zhuangzi listened and applauded.

"We teach people to learn to protect themselves first. And then! Protect your family. And then! Combine people who are related by blood. First, combine siblings and let them form an alliance. And then! Combine blood related people such as cousins and uncles into a big alliance. Then you can combine your neighbors and the people around you. At last! The place of the lacquer garden becomes a whole......"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Zhuangzi praised: "That's it! Master told us that we should not only divide society into individuals, but also combine individuals into one big family! How to combine? That's how it works.

Your dogma is useless! If you force others to participate in society and dedicate themselves, you say, 'Pluck a hair and benefit the world', but others don't believe it. Only in this way can you educate and guide others, and others can truly feel what a social family is!

It is! It is! Only when you let a person feel the power and importance of family unity will they be willing to cooperate with siblings, cousins, blood relatives, neighbors and people around them!

That's the only way! Only then can these individuals be combined into a whole society ......"

Zhuangzi also talked about how to divide the society into zero, and how to combine the individuals into the society.

In fact! These words are all superfluous nonsense for the senior brother in black. But for selling children, begging half, and begging brothers, it is a must. Zhuangzi's intention was to take this opportunity to preach to the two brothers.

In the evening, Zhuangzi and the others were still drinking and talking about the lacquer garden, and the two gray-clothed protectors returned.

The money shopkeeper heard that Zhuangzi had come back from the customs, and he also came to visit Zhuangzi. Seeing that Zhuangzi was drinking, he asked the man to prepare wine and food, and sent it over, and everyone continued to drink and talk.

Zhao Dacheng heard that Zhuangzi was out of the customs, and he also rushed over.

When it was dark, several white-haired old monsters and others also came back one after another.

"How's it going over there?" Zhuangzi asked with a smile.

"Good! Good! It's really right by you, there are tens of thousands of troops in Qiyuan! Not at all! All are soldiers! It's true! All are soldiers! An old white-haired monster said excitedly.

"Our lacquer garden is just missing weapons! Alas! The money shopkeeper sighed on the side.

Zhao Dacheng took over the conversation and said, "That's it!" It is! But? If you have weapons, it's dangerous. To know! The Song Kingdom, like other vassal states, was not allowed to train troops among the people! It is not allowed for the people to hide weapons privately! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! There are just no weapons! If only there were weapons! That's really! If there are tens of thousands of troops, there will be tens of thousands of troops! Another white-haired old monster sighed.

"If all the lacquer gardens are equipped with weapons, how many weapons will it take? How much silver does that cost? Another white-haired old monster sighed.

Equip tens of thousands of people with weapons, and pile them up to form a hill.

Zhuangzi thought to himself: If you really equip these people with weapons, it will not be difficult. It's enough to have an old man come out! How much silver can tens of thousands of people have? According to his father-in-law, he can configure the equipment of 100,000 people at one time.

"Don't!" Zhuangzi said: "If you have a weapon, it is a rebellion." That's it! Here's where the trouble comes. ”

And then! And again: "Actually! What weapons do we need? The heart is a weapon, as long as our heart is horizontal, the heart will kill. Even if you have a knife in your hand, you have no intention of killing someone, what use do you want a knife? Isn't it? ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"That's it!"

The people discussed this issue again.

"Actually! We can use anything as a weapon, a hoe for farming, a copper shovel, and a wooden stick. Not to mention these objects, even the stones and dirt on the ground can be used as weapons......"

"Can dirt be used as a weapon?" Selling asked incredulously.

Zhuangzi laughed: "We can grab a handful of dirt and smash it into the enemy's eyes and make the enemy blind." And then! If we take the enemy's weapons, won't we have them? Isn't it? ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" A white-haired old monster said seriously: "We have to discuss it with them, Zhuangzi is right!" In fact, we can use anything as a weapon. The bowl on the table, the chopsticks in the hand......"

"A shovel for cooking, a rice spoon in your hand, a stick for burning a fire, and ashes under the stove can all be weapons! Yes! Brother Zhuang! Water can also be a weapon! Selling suddenly understood, and said excitedly.

Zhuangzi smiled: "Boiling water is still a very powerful weapon!" You don't even have any skin! ”

When they heard this, they all burst out laughing.
