ps:ps: To clarify, the recent chapter is a summary, for readers and friends who love war plots, it should be relatively bland, but I have to write it for the sake of the complete story, please forgive me.

Zhang Zhidong walked into the cross street in the center of the town.

The street, which is directly connected to the main road from south to north, is particularly narrow. Like any city or street in China at this time, no one considers the amount of traffic and people. The signs of the shops on the street intersected overhead, and the two horse-drawn carriages marching opposite each other took up most of the space, forcing passers-by to dodge.

In most cases, there is no artificial division of traffic at all, and no matter which direction you enter the street, you will have to deal with disorderly pedestrians, cows, horses, vehicles, and chickens and dogs scurrying around.

Most of the shops on both sides put their wares out and occupy the public space, and they don't care about the inconvenience of traffic caused by this.

Zhang Zhidong and the others were all plainclothes, their melon skin hats and braids of different lengths, plus the long shirts that represented the scholars, or Ma Fuyi's short clothes, which did not look very abrupt in the crowd. Although it has been a year since the revolutionary army occupied the area, there has been no strong demand for people to change their hairstyles and clothing.

In the words of Yang Hao's announcement, New China fully respects the rights of the people, who can keep their hairstyles and clothes to their liking. However, it is not for the whole people to be laissez-faire, ∈at least students and government officials, soldiers, and workers must wear their own uniforms. And the braids and robes and horse coats were all forced to change by the Han people after the Manchus entered the customs, which represented the shame of a nation being enslaved.

If you can see this qiē from your heart like a master of Chinese studies, then you can leave it alone. If you can't see it at all. Keep that outfit again. It's a bit out of place.

Residents of small towns near the border between the two provinces. Most of them still retained their original attire, and they were clearly worried about the stability of the revolutionary junta.

Zhang Zhidong saw this qiē in his eyes, and a subtle feeling appeared in his heart, as if he was happy to see such a scene.

However, after walking into the market for a moment, he and the rest of the group felt inexplicably uncomfortable. It's as if they have suddenly arrived in a strange world that looks familiar, but has deteriorated in their bones.

"How can you feel like that?"

Zhang Zhidong frowned, his eyes searched for external sources of interference all around, and his heart quickly pondered. Suddenly, I heard Ma Fuyi exclaim: "It's not right! Why are the people here so clean? ”

Clean? Right! That's how it feels!

Zhang Zhidong suddenly realized. If you look closely, whether it is the crowds of people, the dusty streets, or even the signboard doors and windows of the shops on both sides, they all show a characteristic that is obviously lacking in China in this era - cleanliness!

He opened his old eyes and looked carefully, and saw that the faces of the people who were moving back and forth on the left and right were all clean. Most of their clothes were patched, but they were just as crisp and washed. The streets are still paved with loess, but there is no filth such as chicken manure and cow feces, and there is no garbage discarded at will. Other than that. Looking at the whole street, there is not a single beggar to be found!

It's incredible!

Huang Xing sighed in surprise: "Is this really the area that has just been renovated?" It's just a year. It has become like this, and the speed at which the people's customs have changed is unprecedented! ”

For them, who are rich in five cars, the shock is nothing more than this. Since ancient times, the most difficult thing to do is to change customs. Except for the two major upheavals at the end of the Song and Ming dynasties, it was difficult for other Chinese dynasties to shake the traditions established by Confucian rule. That is the gene that runs through every detail of the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the entire country, and it is almost impossible to change.

At the end of the 19th century, most of the Chinese people lived in poverty and had no food and clothing. They wore patches of clothes, lived in low, dark houses, their faces were covered with dust, and black and thin indifference was the most standard expression. Regardless of the south and north of the Yangtze River, only the scholar class and landlord families can wash every day with oil and water, dress up brand new, use green salt to clean the mouth, and walk on the street with their heads held high.

However, Zhang Zhidong and the others unexpectedly found that the spirit of the people in this border town has undergone earth-shaking changes!

No matter how fat or thin men or women are, how old or young they are, you can see the enthusiasm from the heart on every face. The washed face has a yearning brilliance, and the pace of the march is confident and powerful. The sound of greeting and exchanging words is filled with vigor.

This is the atmosphere that only exists after the new dynasty is settled!

Anytime the people express similar feelings, it can only mean that they have full trust and confidence in the new government, have ample expectations for the future of life, and are satisfied with what they have now.

Zhang Zhidong's face was slightly gloomy. It's not that he doesn't want to see the changes in the new revolutionary area, it's just that this huge psychological gap has greatly impacted his consistent concepts. Originally, some luck was destroyed and destroyed.

On the streets, police officers dressed in black are directing traffic, unceremoniously driving people who change lanes to the right. Horse-drawn carriages attempting to break into the main street were driven to the grounds outside the town, and cattle and motor vehicles were strictly prevented from entering the narrow commercial streets.

The boiling sound seemed to shake the roof, and an extremely vigorous vitality invisibly permeated the surroundings, making people involuntarily accelerate their blood flow and be excited.

Zhang Zhidong didn't judge, he couldn't decide what words to use to describe the feelings in his heart for a while.

The group observed the scene on both sides, and unconsciously crossed the street and suddenly heard a loud shout in the distance. It was the crisp and immature voices of a large group of children and teenagers, gathered in unison, with a high-pitched voice that pierced the clouds and cracked stones, and suddenly suppressed the noise in the street market.

"The voice ......."

Zhang Zhidong raised his eyebrows, and suddenly felt something.

Ma Fuyi grabbed the shop pù guy very simply, and asked loudly: "This little brother, please ask, who is shouting over there?" ”

The shopkeeper startled him, shook his arm and broke free, swept his eyes up and down, and replied, "Brother is a foreigner, right?" That's the elementary school in our town. Hundreds of students are out practicing boxing! What's the matter. You don't have this meeting over there? ”

Ma Fuyi grinned. A fist: "Thank you!" ”

Turning around to talk to everyone, Huang Xing raised his eyebrows and muttered, "Oh? This is unusual, we can just take a look at what their new school looks like. ”

Zhang Zhidong didn't express his opinion, and walked quickly to the end of the street with them, and saw that a mansion facing the street had been replaced, and between the gardens and courtyards inside, many fields had been flattened into playgrounds. There were hundreds of teenagers of all heights dressed in neat sportswear. With the order of a physical education teacher, he strode and swung his fist one by one, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. Its neatness and uniformity, like a stacked wave, attracted many people who looked at the lively people on the wall.

Ma Fuyi and Huang Xing relied on their physique to squeeze out a few positions, so that Zhang Zhidong could calmly observe, and after a while, the old man snorted unhappily: "It's a good school, but you have to teach students to dance and play fists and feet, isn't this to teach a group of martial artists from an early age?" How different is it from the reckless soldiers? ”

Huang Xing said solemnly: "The elders and students don't dare to agree with this. We, the people of China, have attached equal importance to civil and military affairs since ancient times. The ancient scholars also had the learning of the six arts. Only since the Song Dynasty, scholars have only sought the Six Classics of Literature and Art. He did not understand practice, so he led the country to emphasize literature and ignore military force, and the country's military affairs were sluggish. However, there were many self-righteous scholars who assumed the position of military commander, resulting in countless catastrophic defeats. At this time, the countries are strong and rejuvenate the country, and China wants to be stronger than the world, and it must revitalize its armed forces. Cultivating newcomers who are both civil and military since childhood, but they can create a generation of powerful teenagers and serve as the foundation of the country. ”

Tan Renfeng said leisurely: "Mr. Yang Da proposed, two paintings of human characters, and each branch of civil and military. For thousands of years, the ancients only sought literary attainments and neglected their own strong cultivation, like a crippled leg, how could they support a strong national fortune? Our Chinese civilization has been inherited for thousands of years, and all the classics contain the method of self-cultivation and the way of health maintenance, which cannot be generalized and ignored in the past. ”

His words were more straightforward than Huang Xing, but Zhang Zhidong couldn't refute them.

Want to accuse him of talking nonsense? The old master, who is proficient in various classics, obviously can't open his mouth. Even if they consider Confucianism to be authentic, whether it is Confucius's Analects, or the Mean, the University, and Mencius, there are clear sentences that teach people how to cultivate qi and practice to strengthen themselves.

The dialogue between Confucius and Yan Hui is almost the standard textbook for the introduction to spiritual practice. Mencius's "Mighty Qi" directly describes the mental state and external appearance of each stage. In "University", it is simply taught to advance from each order of the seven politics and eight eyes, to know how to be quiet and peaceful, and to learn from things, sincerity, and self-cultivation...... This is the cultivation setting of the ready-made Fantasy Cultivation True Text!

It can be said that there are similar things in the hundred classics of China, because the sages of the pre-Qin dynasty formed their theories through the guò body. Confucianism has been passed down to the present, and all the real Confucians, which one will not cultivate qi and kung fu? The old man Zhang Zhidong himself will do it!

Of course, Confucian scholars in the past generations regarded this kind of kung fu as a stump, and they could cultivate it themselves, but they looked down on the cultivation of other martial artists, which was clearly factional discrimination, which was appropriate.

But if you want to make the old man admit defeat like this, it is impossible. Zhang Zhidong snorted coldly: "Now that the revolutionary army is extremely powerful, any partial division can sweep the whole country's soldiers and horses, why do you need to train again?" Even the great powers, the sea and land armies, can't beat him, but he still has to be trained like this, so who will he use it against? It's nothing more than a waste of money! ”

This time, it was Huang Xing's turn to give advice: "The students thought otherwise. The strength of the country is not in others, but in our own perception of strength and weakness. Judging from the program announced by the new government, they want to promote a healthy life for the people of the whole country, from walking, sitting, lying, eating, resting, and all aspects, fully carry forward the essence of thousands of years of civilization, and make sure that the people are on the road to health, not just for military war. ”

In a word, for thousands of years from ancient times to the present, the vast number of people at the bottom of China have struggled to survive in an extremely unhealthy state.

In the long ancient time and space, because of the underdevelopment of the productive forces and the bottomless greedy possession of the means of production by the ruling class, the vast majority of the people lacked the most basic means of subsistence. They don't have enough to eat, they don't have warm clothes, they don't have enough to eat, they don't have enough to eat, they don't have enough to eat, they don't have enough clothes, they don't have enough to eat, they don't have enough clothes, they don In such a bad situation, there is no care for health and wellness.

And those people in the ruling class don't worry about material things at all, they can't go hungry or cold, so they can study all kinds of knowledge with peace of mind, and practice the way of health and health in their bodies. In this way, the foundation of their rule was greatly solidified.

Today, Yang Hao has used resources across one plane to build a new nation, and he is determined to change the distorted course of this world. Factors that directly and fundamentally change the strength of the entire nation. It will not waste the valuable knowledge accumulated by countless ancestors over thousands of years.

China from time immemorial. He has been constantly researching the way of life.

Since the era of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, which has no written records, the Taoist ancestors have begun to carry out various explorations, and related achievements have been incorporated into many myths and legends. Until the Western Zhou Dynasty, the entire theoretical system was basically completed, so we can find those words for health and health from the hundreds of classics of Zhuzi. The meridians, acupuncture and other techniques of ancient Chinese medicine were also perfected at that time, and finally formed the peerless treasure of "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" in the Western Han Dynasty.

Arguably. The Chinese are the people who know how to maintain healthy life among the human beings on the whole earth, and were the first to form a practical, real and effective operation manual, the central idea of which has been the core of the entire national culture until thousands of years later.

In terms of its level of achievement, this academic system can be divided into three levels: longevity, health preservation, and medical treatment.

The way of immortality was later developed into Dan Dao Qigong by the pre-Qin Qi practitioners and Fang Shi, and then it was deified, kept secret, and detached from reality from the mainstream society. What's more, because the bold and reckless Fangshi of the past dynasties fooled the emperor and ate a lot of Jinshi pills to death. It is strongly rejected by Confucianism.

When they arrived in New China, they simply beat them into cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods. Feudal superstition has swept the whole country, regardless of whether you really understand it or not. As a result, in the 80s, hundreds of liar qigong masters came out of the mountains, causing a miasma of smoke in the whole country, but few orthodox people dared to come out and tell the truth.

The way of health preservation has been running through all dynasties. There are descriptions in various classics, and in the herbal medicine and medical books of the past dynasties, there is no lack of its rich and colorful means. Whether it is guided gymnastics, qi cultivation and meditation, boxing and martial arts, and various medicinal diet prescriptions, they are all listed.

The key to this is that people can adapt to the changes in the earth's environment from the basic living habits, rotate various climates at all times, adjust their body and mind at any time, and always maintain a healthy state, so that they will basically not get sick.

At the same time, this is also the most different thing about Chinese medicine, which is not to treat the disease before it happens, and to prevent it from happening.

Further down is the medical treatment. It is that the human body has already developed the disease, and it can only be treated by means of guò medicine and acupuncture. At this point, the person itself has been destroyed, and no matter how good the medicine is, it is only a deficiency after all.

In this regard, the development of modern medicine is particularly rapid, but it is a pity that in the seventies of the twentieth century, because of the stagnation of Western medical theories, the major medical groups deliberately manipulated medical research for the sake of interests, and the West has discovered the guiding role of the "holism" of the East in modern medicine.

The future of medicine will be a combination of Eastern and Western cultures. The theory of health preservation in Chinese culture directly guides people to ensure their health from the basic details of life, stimulates the vitality of the human body itself to eliminate diseases, and greatly reduces the correction of drug abuse - the wrong medical treatment method that causes great damage while resisting treatment, so that the public can embark on a new era of life along a new path of health.

The integration of cultures is a long process, especially in China, the world, a hundred years of inferiority and overkill, leading to the overall benefit of its own culture. With the development of economic and military power, the self-confidence of the people has increased, and they have begun to pick up the essence of culture that has been abandoned by rigidity. It will take a long time to recover, and it will take tens or hundreds of years for the country and the nation to truly dominate the world.

Yang Hao naturally could not wait until then, in the face of the current situation of China at the end of the nineteenth century, it just set off the reflection of the whole nation, broke the erroneous line of etiquette and religion for thousands of years, returned to the positive and inclusive Chinese culture, and with the help of strong external support, while realizing an industrialized power, while building a strong and healthy nation from the foundation.

Zhang Zhidong also knew in his heart that what Huang Xing said was actually not wrong, but he had preconceived ideas in his heart and it was always difficult to look at it correctly.

In the primary school, the physical education teacher who was transferred from the folk master training led more than 100 primary school students of all grades to complete a set of simple boxing techniques, and then calmed down, calmed down the breathing and heartbeat, and spread out free activities.

The crowd of onlookers also left the door of the wall one after another, and their mouths kept exclaiming: "Today's students are really happy!" I heard that they have an egg and a bag of milk powder in the morning, and meat to eat at noon and night, which is more comfortable than the landlord's old rich family! You see, it's only been a long time, and they are all tall and strong, and their faces are flushed. Hey, this new government is really amazing! ”

"Is it more obedient than being able to call the villagers and fathers? Who doesn't expect their children to be sent in and live a good life! This is a blessing that you will never enjoy in eight lifetimes! ”

Shaking his head and sighing, the satisfaction dissipated.

Zhang Zhidong snorted: "Buy people's hearts!" I'll see how he can sustain it! There are more than 40,000 Li people in the country, and there are tens of millions of young people, where can he get so many eggs, milk powder, and meat offerings? ”

This question is also incomprehensible to Huang Xing and others. Tan Renfeng knew something, but he didn't know much about it and immediately explained it to them. It's better to see than to hear, so it's better to let them discover it themselves.

Leaving the school, the group wandered to the back alleys, from the lively street, into the deserted and cramped houses. What kind of illusion is hidden under the houses that are still covered with mud and fur?

Zhang Zhidong wanted to know. (To be continued......) R752
