Chapter 21: In the Courtyard

"I have also heard Wang Shuping's remarks, and natural selection and survival of the fittest are indeed the main points he mentioned...... However, it is doubtful that it can be understood in the same way as yours. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" The Taoist who was obviously much better dressed than the Qixia Guan Taoist said, and at the same time pointed to a person next to him and said, "Brother Shangyang was fortunate to meet Wang Shuping at the Spring Festival that day, and he listened to it in detail, but it was a little different from you, why is this?" ”

Qixia Guandao's face was a little ugly, he really hadn't heard the theory of evolution put forward by Wang Shuping, but what he said now was passed on by others, and he would say it when he heard the concept that was beneficial to this side, but he didn't expect to understand it wrong.

Wang Ningzhi, a Taoist who was called Shangyang, had the impression that he was the person who drank with him at the Spring Festival Gala that day, and he said: "The key point of my understanding of evolution lies in the word 'evolution', and the word 'evolution' is inextricably linked with 'adaptation'...... However, Qixiaguan still maintains the original ritual precepts, which seems to be indeed a bit shallow and vulgar now, not suitable for today, and destined to be annihilated! ”

"You also said that anything that can adapt to the current is called evolution, so since I can live here and get the trust of the poor people around me, it is naturally adaptable, so how can I say that it is shallow and vulgar?" Qixia Guan Daoist seized the gap in Shang Yang's words and immediately refuted it, thinking that he was already exhausted, and he could only pick bones from the other party's remarks.

"Ignorance...... I only discussed Wang Shuping's remarks with you, but I did not say that Wang Shuping's remarks were correct, and only a Taoist temple like Qixiaguan would take a young man's casual words as a dogma. Shang Yang smiled contemptuously, "Although Wang Shuping is the son of Wang Yishao, he doesn't say that everything is right, in my opinion, the so-called theory of evolution is nothing more than him casually mentioning it, and then being put on the platform by others...... As for whether there is real talent and real learning, I don't believe that a pedantic and mediocre person suddenly becomes a blockbuster......"

Wang Ningzhi, who was listening on the side, silently praised this Taoist named Shangyang, and did not speak, but he could guess that he was just casually talking, which is indeed amazing, but it is a bit too much to belittle himself like this.

Before he could show anything, Hei Qi'er next to him said directly: "What's the point of you arguing over there, how can Wang Shuping's remarks be based on your personal understanding...... It just so happens that Wang Shuping himself is here, if you have any questions, just ask him directly! ”

After speaking, Hei Qi'er pointed at Wang Ningzhi and drew the attention of a group of people here, and the big white goose in his arms was still symbolically quacking.

The young man is arrogant, and Wang Ningzhi can only be regarded as harming the pond fish...... Hei Qi'er was caught off guard by such an indication, and even when a group of people shifted their eyes here, he was still immersed in the idea of being angry because of Shang Yang's disparagement, and when he reacted, he looked up with his sister-in-law He's worried.

He shook his head helplessly, and said viciously to Hei Qi'er: "Why are you pulling me out...... I'll be looking for you later! Then he stood up and clenched his fists at the people outside the window: "I'm sorry, this little guy can't keep his mouth shut, it's definitely not me who wants to be in the limelight...... You go on, you go on, leave me alone.

This is indeed the case, but I don't know how many people will believe it just by explaining it this way...... It's strange to believe it.

Sure enough, seeing that it was indeed him who appeared here, Zheng Qingfeng, the Taoist who presided over this debate and was also the master of Qixia Guanguan, opened his mouth and said: "Since Shuping Xiaoyou has come in person, we are waiting for the discussion to be involved, so please come over and talk about what you think." ”

There are Taoists who have added a seat in the past.

Since he was invited, Wang Ningzhi didn't intend to shirk it, and he didn't know whether what he was talking about was really evolutionary, but in this era, he should be the first to put it forward, and since he was the first to put it forward, what he said was the most correct...... As for his understanding, he can only take one step at a time.

He Shi was a little worried, how could he have expected to encounter this situation when he came out to pray for blessings and talk about things, although Wang Ningzhi had changed after getting married, but the senses she had given her before had not completely changed, so that she subconsciously thought that he was not good at arguing.

Wang Ningzhi looked at her sister-in-law, with a goose egg face, although the green silk was a little messy, she could still see that it was a beautiful woman's hair bun, and now she was tilting her head, revealing a smooth chin and a white neck, her good-looking eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and her eyes were full of worry. He could only return the favor by smiling to show that it was okay to reassure her, and at the same time did not forget to glare at Hei Qi'er fiercely when leaving, and showed a trace of the momentum of the former superior, Hei Qi'er was fine, but he scared the big white goose in the young man's arms to quack.

Quite helpless.

Walking out of the side hall, passing through the periphery occupied by Xiaowu, Meiji, and Shizi, he walked into the courtyard and sat down on the seat added by the Taoist, which was very close to Zheng Qingfeng, the master of Qixia Guanguan.

Regarding the background of this Zheng Qingfeng, when he talked with his sister-in-law He, he had an understanding, he was a poor scholar, and the first half of his life was similar to Wang Xian of the Wang Family School, and the officialdom was unexpected...... Although he is knowledgeable and has excellent character, his background has become a shackle that shackles him, and after all, he can't be proud.

After Wang Ningzhi sat down, the debate continued.

Zheng Qingfeng asked on behalf of the person who was arguing just now: "Did Shuping hear what the two sides said just now?" ”

"You've been listening to me since it was mentioned." Wang Ningzhi replied honestly.

"That's right, I also hope that Shuping will explain the 'theory of evolution', you are the one who put it forward, the most authoritative, I wonder if our understanding of the theory of evolution just now is correct?"

Wang Ningzhi, who had already finished the draft, nodded, looked at the people present, and said: "There are a thousand suns in the eyes of a thousand people, and each person has a different understanding of things based on the external environment in which they live and their own cultivation. Personally, I believe that the so-called word 'evolution' is a concept of time, which is related to the past, present, and future. In the same way, some people or things now may be outdated in the future, society is always changing, and no one is qualified to characterize others as ......"

Shang Yang frowned and said, "What Shuping said has nothing to do with today's topic. ”

Qixia Guan Taoist: "He has already said that he only expounds the five buckets of rice Dao, and does not express today's topic." ”

Wang Ningzhi tried his best to speak in detail, but he didn't know if the people present could understand it, and now he stopped when he saw that the two sides began to argue again, but he didn't expect that soon the Taoist of the Shangqing Sect would shift the topic to himself again.

"What Xiaoyou said is a bit vague, can you give an example of this topic." The Taoist of the Shangqing Sect did not deliberately make things difficult, and estimated that some of the words in what Wang Ningzhi said were a little ahead of the times, and he couldn't understand it, so he asked this question, and added a sentence later, "Of course, it's just an example, I won't characterize you!" ”

The two sects have obvious opposition of interests, Wang Ningzhi's current identity is the son of a big family, and he is actually the same class as the Shangqing faction, but he is naturally impossible to agree with the theory of the Shangqing faction from later generations...... In fact, he did not identify with any denomination.

However, disagreeing does not mean that he cannot understand, he can understand the teachings of both sides, therefore, after a little thought, he chose a statement that neither side is offended: "To understand the current situation with natural selection and survival of the fittest, the family is the most suitable class for today, and it is the natural selection; It is not unreasonable for the poor to be cold and civilian, and it is uncertain whether there will be outstanding people born in a few years. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Yang, who had drunk on the same stage with him, frowned, and said with a slight mockery: "A few days ago, I heard from Shuping's mouth that there was no intention of arguing for the poor and the common people, but today I listened to Jun's words, but there are some discrepancies. ”

As soon as Shang Yang's words were finished, without waiting for Wang Ningzhi to answer, Qixia Guan Daoist said: "Don't be entangled, listen to what Shuping Xiaoyou said, although he has never defended the cold and civilians, but he is also objective and fair, Yang Gong has already said before, he will not characterize what he said about the coffin, you are so provocative, but I don't know what the intention is?" ”

"Huh...... What do I mean? Shang Yang laughed out loud, but the laughter was harsh, which was clearly sarcastic, "I don't know what my intentions are, but I know very well the intentions of some people, what Wang Shuping said is clearly defending you, and you will naturally help him speak, originally it was just a guess, but now it seems that it is indeed the case......

"Nonsense!" The Taoist of the Shangqing faction, known as Yang Gong, scolded and stopped Shang Yang's speech, and then said to Wang Ningzhi with a slight apology, "What Shang Yang said, Xiaoyou don't have to take it to heart......

Because of Wang Ningzhi's arrival, because of what he said just now, there was a vague tendency for the Qixia Guan Taoist to counter the Taoist of the Shangqing Sect, and the latter naturally wanted to strike, but Wang Ningzhi was pushed around as a topic, which he was extremely disliked.

"I came here to plead with Zheng Guanzhu, hoping that he could have a group of poor people under his command, and they didn't care about doctrinal disputes, but some people went too far, that is, the clay people still had three points of anger, and they kept picking thorns from my words to testify that I was from the side of Qixiaguan, ignoring the objectivity of the 'theory of evolution' itself...... I'm very angry. Wang Ningzhi grimaced, his eyes became sharp, and he stared at Shang Yang, "So I decided to help Master Zheng Guan say something, just in terms of saving lives and helping the wounded, what Qi Xiaguan is doing here is much better than you!" You guys, what a failure! ”
