After listening to Ning Jiang's words, Nangong Jiayou's face changed slightly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although he had realized that the situation was not good, he did not expect that it would come to such a point.

Ning Jiang said with a smile: "Although it may be a little inappropriate for me to say this myself, it is actually too late to draw a line with me now." On the side of the Changhe Martial Arts League, it is also the time to employ people, if you vote now, they will definitely welcome it. Or, start collecting my crimes...... I know that if you want to collect them, you will definitely be able to find a lot of them, and then hand them over to the Criminal Department, the imperial court, what you need most now is a name, a righteous name. Like what are the conditions for making peace with the barbarian army...... They would never admit such a thing. Hand in the 'criminal evidence' of the Heaven and Earth Society and the Southeast Martial Arts League, and then you can soar, and you will definitely have a share of the future members of the Criminal Department. ”

Nangong Jiayou gritted his teeth, clenched his fists and bowed down: "Don't hide it from the alliance leader, although his subordinates are headhunters, and they all say that they are the laws and disciplines of the court and the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, but sometimes at night, after self-reflection, they know that they are actually a person who forgets his righteousness. ”

Ning Jiang nodded: "It's not easy to recognize yourself, and that's what I value about you." ”

Nangong Jiayou said: "But over the years, following the alliance leader, the subordinates have been impressed by the righteousness of the alliance leader, the alliance leader can only rest assured, although the subordinates are people who forget their righteousness for profit, they are willing to throw their heads and spill blood for the alliance leader, but the alliance leader has orders, and his subordinates are duty-bound." ”

Ning Jiang smiled and said: "Not only do you forget your righteousness, but you are also shameless. ”

While speaking, outside, Sun Ziluo came to the back garden: "Alliance leader, there is an official who calls himself Dian Hong, who asks to see him outside the door. ”

Ning Jiang said: "Please let him in." ”

Nangong Jiayou arched his hand and said: "The subordinates will leave first." ”

Ning Jiang raised his forehead and didn't say anything.

Nangong Jiayou walked out of the Ning Mansion through the back door, and soon, two people turned out of the shadows. One of them said: "Catch the head, did you say that the leader of the alliance should not go to Lin'an?" ”

Nangong Jiayou said: "The alliance leader has his own decision, we just need to abide by it." ”

"But," the other whispered, "what is the situation...... Headcatcher, should we also think about it......"

"Consider what?" Nangong Jiayou glared at him and said coldly, "Allianceism Bo Yuntian, one day with him, I, Nangong Jiayou, will willingly go to Daoshan and go to the sea of fire for him, and I will never regret anything." ”

The man didn't dare to say anything at once, but secretly, he had already quietly beat the drum and had other thoughts.

Nangong Jiayou left like this, taking the two of them away.

How could he not know what the person next to him was secretly thinking? But he didn't say anything more. Everyone has a different choice, and his choice is profit...... He still believes that as long as he follows that person, he can have the greatest benefit.

After Nangong Jiayou left, Ning Jiang met with the former prefect of Linjiang County in the hall.

When he participated in the government examination in Ningjiang, Dian Hong was the prefect of Linjiang County, and he made Ningjiang a first-class student, and from the perspective of Confucianism, he was also a teacher in Ningjiang.

It was only later, because of the meteorite falling from the sky on Yuehu Lake, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, which paid attention to the induction of heaven and man, there was a natural disaster, which meant that the local magistrate had no way to govern it, and offended the heavens, so he was naturally dismissed from his official position.

It was not until Song Hong ascended the throne that the new dynasty was temporarily elected to Lin'an Jianfu that he was activated again.

At this time, Dianhong's hair has turned a lot whiter, obviously, the turmoil and turmoil over the years have had a great impact on him. In particular, he was originally born as a Jinshi, although he was only a top three, but he was also a pillar of the country. The collapse of Emperor Wen Xing also had a great impact on him, the literary atmosphere was no longer there, the barbarians invaded, the Confucian students in the world were panicked, and the bright future suddenly became dark and lightless, as if there was no end in sight.

Ningfu is located in Gaosuo County, which is one of the eight counties under the administration of Linjiang County. Ning Jiang naturally knows a lot about Dian Hong and knows that he is indeed a good official.

At this moment, seeing Dian Hong's arrival, he personally got up and poured tea for Dian Hong, and said, "Why did the teacher suddenly come here?" ”

Dian Hong hurriedly got up and said, "I'll come by myself, I'll come by myself." "Today's Ningjiang, although there is no official position, but it is famous in the world, even according to the practice of the field, although he can barely be regarded as Ningjiang's teacher, but Ningjiang is a first-class champion, he is just among the top three, the officialdom of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the ranking in the field, and the official position.

Ning Jiang didn't pay so much attention to it, and after pouring a full cup of tea for him, he sat down and said with a smile: "Teacher, you don't have to be polite." Hehe, over the years, I haven't been back home, I came back today, I thought there would be a lot of old people to visit, who knows, I thought it would be a crowd, but I didn't expect it to be a bird, and I don't know if I suddenly became a plague god. I thought that no one would come today, but I didn't expect the teacher to appear, but the students were quite surprised, and I felt that I still had some popularity. ”

Dian Hong was speechless for a while, and then sighed: "I'm old, and now this world is ...... I don't understand it. In the past few days, I quarreled with the children at home, and I was a little upset, so I came to sit down. ”

"I wonder what they said to make the teacher so upset?"

They said that the 800-year-old Confucianism and Taoism had already reached the end of the road, and it was time to change. Alas, actually, this is still what they say? I have been a magistrate for so many years, how can I not understand the problems of this world? The tenants at the bottom are getting more and more impassable, the fields of the local gentry are getting more and more, and the common people are getting poorer and poorer. Take me as an example, after I became a jinshi, I warned my family every day to guard the door and guard against greed and pollution, but the fields under my name have still multiplied many times, where did they come from? I don't even know ...... myself."

Ning Jiang said: "It's no wonder that the teacher, everyone is like this." ”

"Yes, it's all like this, while we enjoy the glory and wealth brought by fame, we look at more and more people, slaves and servants, and then think to ourselves, this world should have changed...... It's time for a change! Dian Hong smiled bitterly, "But no one thought that in our lifetime, it was really possible for this world to change." ”

Ning Jiang nodded and didn't say anything more.

"I know it's time to change, but where should I go? I couldn't read it at all. Dian Hong held the cup full of tea on the table in his hand, but his eyes looked blankly at the outside of the hall door, "My youngest son, these days, I have been talking about Confucianism and compassion all day long, and he said, in this world, why is there so much killing?" It is because there is a lack of kindness between people, and there is also a lack of kindness between kindness and things. If everyone were aware of the truth of compassion, there would be much less killing. When is the time for retribution, today the barbarians kill the Chinese people, tomorrow the Chinese people kill the barbarians, and if this continues, the killing will never end. In this life, people eat animals, and in the next life, animals eat people, and this cycle will never stop. If each of them can start with themselves, step by step to dissolve hatred and reduce killing, eventually, peace will be achieved in the whole world...... Makes sense...... It always makes sense. ”

Ning Jiang was across a table from him, and the two sat side by side, looking out together.

Dian Hong continued: "My eldest son has been studying the Nine Yin True Scripture all along...... And those nine yin true explanations you wrote. He said to me that the way of the world should indeed change, that the world is the world of the people of the world, and that the so-called compassion is meaningless. Killing can never be eliminated, so those who have the ability should try to make themselves stronger, and then take on more responsibility. Fish, birds, and beasts have become the food of human beings, which is originally the choice of nature, because they are weak and because human beings are strong, so fish, birds, and animals have naturally become the rations of human beings. As for talking about the afterlife, not to mention whether there is such a thing as an afterlife, even if there really is, at that time, the beasts will live above the humans, will they really know what kind of mercy and let the humans go? At this moment, in the wilderness, there are also many tigers and insects, cannibalism and harming people, why don't those who advocate compassion and learning go to reason with them first? Let's stop cannibalism first? Makes sense...... I always think it makes sense. ”

Ning Jiang said: "Since the teacher thinks it makes sense, what is the teacher struggling with?" ”

Norihiro turned his head and looked at him in astonishment.

Outside the hall, the drizzle continued, and with the autumn wind blowing, the rain was sprinkled, making the sky in the distance seem to be covered with a light veil, misty.

Somewhere in the back garden, a tall barbarian woman was teasing a little girl with a bunch of cat ears on her head, the little girl ran around idly, occasionally pouting, and then turned into a little black cat, jumping into the light rain, I don't know how to do it, the strange cat shadow, intermittently, disappeared in a flash.

The little black cat jumped on the windowsill of the living room, and the young man sitting on the big sandalwood chair beckoned to it. The little black cat wanted to jump on his lap and let him pet it, but after all, because there were still outsiders in the hall, he didn't pass, so he turned around and jumped back.

"The world is the world of the people of the world, become stronger, and then take on more responsibilities...... Although it feels very reasonable, but when I think about it, there is indeed no end to it if it goes on like this. The strong are exhausted, everyone has his own ideas, the weak eat the strong, endless, strife is indispensable, wars are endless, in the end the strong die, the people suffer, and then continue from generation to generation," Dian Hong sighed, "Actually, I have also read the nine yin true explanations you wrote, the Six Classics note me, I note the Six Classics, I certainly know that those scriptures, there are hidden ideas in those scriptures, and these ideas may be summarized in one of the inner sentences, that is...... Natural selection, survival of the fittest. ”

Ning Jiang said: "The teacher is not mistaken, those nine yin true explanations were originally written for those who practice martial arts, although the world is the world of the world, I hope that everyone can take their own responsibilities, but in the final analysis, blood and rain are the normal state of the rivers and lakes and martial arts." In the book, I not only preach the distinction of Huayi, but also expound the principle of natural selection, that is, I hope to guide the warriors of the world to regard their family and country as their own responsibility, and to be able to rise up and fight in the face of barbarian aggression. ”

Dian Hong nodded: "However, this is not a long-term solution after all, the world is the world of the people of the world, but everyone's 'world' is different, this is a dispute." For example, in this martial arts dispute that anyone with a discerning eye can see, the strong take on more responsibility, Mr. Mei Jian stepped into the martial arts, he was strong, he felt that he had the responsibility to save the world, but the responsibility must be corresponding to the power, he wanted more power, so the bloody storm rose. And even if he obtains the power he wants, but he will eventually grow old and die, no matter how powerful the Zongsheng is, he is not an immortal after all, and when he dies, there will be more strong people on the rivers and lakes, followed by a bloody storm, so, endlessly, when will there be an end? ”

Ning Jiang said: "In this case, why doesn't the teacher tend to be kind to learning?" If everyone can be kind to all living beings in the world, without harming life or life, wouldn't we be able to usher in the ultimate peace? ”

Dian Hong said helplessly: "But there is also a problem, I believe in Cixue, do not harm life, do not harm life, but people are harmless to the tiger's heart, the tiger hurts people's will, is it true that eating fast and vegetarian, reciting the scriptures of heaven and earth benevolence and the equality of all souls all day long, can really make those poisonous insects and beasts not hurt themselves and not harm themselves?" Like the barbarians...... In these days, how many people have been killed in our Huaxia, complaining with virtue and resolving grievances...... I can't be angry. ”

Ning Jiang said: "So, teacher, what are you struggling with?" ”

Dian Hong was surprised: "How can you not be entangled? These two directions are far apart, and water and fire cannot tolerate ......"

"Actually, I also know that when the teacher comes to me, he must be more inclined to the concept of natural selection," Ning Jiang cut off, "but I think that Cixue is a good thing, and what it says is very reasonable." Teacher, the reason why you find them intolerable is because you don't know the reason to look at them dialectically. These two seemingly disparate ideas can actually be combined. Whether it is natural selection or compassion for things, there is nothing wrong with it. ”

Dian Hong frowned tightly: "How can it be all wrong?" Of these two, there must be one wrong ......"

"There's nothing wrong with that, it's just the timing!"

"Timing?"

"That's right, timing! Cixue is a good thing, but the timing of promoting it is not right. A person slapped you, and then told you to endure it, to repay the grievances with virtue, to be beaten on the left side and to the right cheek, to resolve the enemy's grievances...... What the is this? Ning Jiang said coldly, "So we should become stronger, strong enough to be able to beat him back, so that he can't even recognize his mother, and then we will also teach him what forbearance is and what is revenge with virtue...... That's perfect. ”
