Chapter 10 Sugar gourd
Tian is not afraid that he has always been very envious of his ancestors and his senior brothers.
Whenever he saw them reprimanding the juniors seriously, he couldn't hold back his excitement in his heart: When will I be able to have my own students like them, and then train and play when I am happy, and get angry when I am unhappy?
Although the old ancestor later handed over the entire Sichou Zhai to himself, and there were some disciples who called themselves "sir", but after all, it was taught by the old ancestor and the senior brother, and he started later than these disciples, and he was the youngest, how could he have the confidence to reprimand others?
Now, he has finally accepted students, and his wish to be a "good teacher" has finally been realized, but there is no trace of joy - if there is one, it is only the moment when he hears Hua Hate Liu agree to worship him as a teacher.
The rest is all grievances and depression.
The two of them are still walking on this official road with a lame donkey, and now it has only been two days since the sky is not afraid of "three sentences of dead Confucianism".
After the two of them experienced some "heartache", they seemed to have ghosts in their hearts, and they didn't mention it again. But Hua Hateliu felt that she had an obligation to put forward "evasive opinions" about what she was not afraid to do in front of Confucianism that day. So he pretended to chat and chatted with Tian Bu for a few words, which meant nothing more than "you shouldn't divulge the secret of heaven", "you shouldn't say something shocking at that time", "it's not appropriate for you to do this properly", etc.
But God is not afraid and not stupid, when he was a child, he was familiar with how the ancestors and senior brothers taught students, and the reprimand is not false on the one hand, but there is also a euphemistic way called "pointing" - no matter which one it is, the gentleman will not be unreasonable, it must be that something was wrong before, and the gentleman was not satisfied.
Thinking of this, I am not afraid of being annoyed: How can I say that I am also your husband, let's not talk about the difference between nominal and practical, you can't help but give face! What's wrong with the heavenly machine, I don't believe that the heavenly machine was punished or something--I'm not the coward of Zhuang Boyang.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, but he was not afraid of being a cultivated person, and it was absolutely impossible to yell at the flower hate willow "Roll over", he knew that the sound he roared out of his strength was not as light and far-reaching as the lame donkey seemed to be "taking a leisurely walk".
So it's useless to be loud. He has his own way of coping - you don't let me reveal the secret, I'll tell you; If you don't let me hit someone else, I'll hit you.
I saw the boy sitting on the back of the lame donkey, closing his eyes and groaning slightly, and when he opened his eyes again, although he still had a sad face, the light of excitement was already leaking out. He greeted the flower hater willow who was flipping through the book while walking in front of him:
"Hey! I'll have a sugar gourd to eat later. ”
The flower hates the willow and ignores it. Still buried in the road and reading.
"I said I'll be able to eat sugar gourds later, ten knots, red and big—but you can't eat them." Tian is not afraid of the slightest frustration and further deepens the details.
Flower Hate Willow finally gave a reaction. He raised his head, turned his face to look at the smug boy on the donkey's back, and looked back and forward at the official road for a while.
"Did you say this sugar gourd fell from the sky?" What he was reading at this time was a military book, which said that the army should be deployed and marched, and the city should be plundered and defended as much as possible, so as to achieve the unity of "heaven, earth, and man", that is, favorable timing, dominant terrain, and appropriate employment. To put it bluntly, it is to use the right person, in the right place, to grasp the right time, and to accomplish the right thing. And a few of his actions just now are just trying to watch people, measure the situation, and wait for opportunities, to see if what Tian is not afraid of is a favorable condition for the realization of the existence zài.
"Nonsense, when will the sugar gourd be lit from the sky...... Although the sugar gourd is delicious, it hurts to hit it if it falls from the sky. Besides, if you can't catch it, it will be dirty if you fall to the ground...... I've told you before, sugar gourds grow on the ground, and your memory is so poor! "Mr. Dang is not satisfied with this new student...... But these things will be talked about later, and the main thing now is to sulk yourself.
"Where does it not come from heaven? Can you plant it for me now? You see, in front of or behind this road, there is not even a figure - who will send it? "Hua Hate Liu's question is not to criticize his own husband, this is like a good student will drill the tip of the horns, Hua Hate Liu does not have the slightest doubt about the ability of the sky not to be afraid of the heavens to predict the heavens - although the sugar gourd may not be worth using other means to cover up any signs in the eyes of the heavens!
"I ...... I don't know...... "Tian is not afraid of suffocating his breath, and I wonder how I don't know when and who sent it." But Mr. is Mr., he can't be asked by students, anyway, he has listened to too many lectures from his ancestors, so he searched for a few words in his head that he felt could barely explain to answer: "Providence is unpredictable and changes rapidly." Heavenly Opportunity, it is to take a unique kind of research and understanding in the thousands of evolutions, but whether the 'one' grasped is cause or effect, whether it is a moment or a fragment, it is impossible to predict, and it is not so easy to be swayed by people's hearts......"
Seeing that the flower hated Liu nodded frequently, he was not afraid of the sky and was a little bold, "You are reading a military book, even if you have not personally led the soldiers, you should also understand the principle of 'using the magic of one mind', the art of war says that it is necessary to balance the situation and examine the enemy's fourteen changes, which is visible, but when to send troops, when to chase the enemy, when to strengthen the side, when to defend the void, when to gather and annihilate, when to divide and escape, when to fight near the water, what time to rely on the mountain, these can only be grasped by the feelings of the generals themselves, Sometimes I can feel it, and I will order an attack for no reason, and sometimes it seems to outsiders that it is a good time, but I don't dare to be greedy for merit before the spirit rhino arrives...... This heart, feeling, spirit, and timing are all heavenly opportunities. This is amorphous, and what specific presentation will there be in luxury......"
Listening to this set of not being afraid of the sky, it really shocked Hua Hate Liu: It's not simple, sure enough, everyone is a monster in his four sorrows, and a child actually understands these truths!
Thinking like this in his heart, he was not afraid of the sky and the ancestor he often mentioned suddenly had three points of respect, and bowed slightly to the sky: "What Mr. taught. ”
Tian is not afraid that he was worried that he would not remember everything, and if he didn't make sense, he would be recognized by Hua Hate Liu, which is good, Gong Xue's attitude has moved out, he was happy in his heart, and his face was slightly pale on the other hand, and then he thought about it: Which skill they learned later is not the religion of the ancestors, there is a saying in Confucianism that makes sense, "There is a precedence in hearing the Tao", I listened earlier than the flower hate Liu, what is wrong with helping the ancestors to promote their thoughts? That's what you're supposed to do as a husband.
Thinking of this, I also accepted this worship with peace of mind. But sir, it's impossible not to hold back because you have a good attitude and make a mistake. "It seems that you are quite self-motivated, very good...... But well, the will of heaven cannot be violated, saying that without your sugar gourd, there will be no sugar gourd without you - the student should not rob the gentleman, if the gentleman gives it to the student to eat, or falls to the ground, or gets stuck in the throat, it is the majesty of the will of heaven, and it has to be guarded against! ”
Hua Hate Liu was still respectful, but after listening to the last half of the sentence, he looked helpless: What is this......
At this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, although it was far away, but the sound was faintly audible.
"It's Zhuang Boyang!" Tian was not afraid to get up from the lame donkey's back and looked behind him. "It's really him...... Well, there's a sugar gourd, haha! Or two strings! Tong Sheng almost jumped up on the donkey's back, but fortunately the lame donkey answered his name, and knew his temperament, and cooperated with him to cry "uh-ah-hmm-ah".
After some time, Hua hated Liu saw the visitor clearly, his face was white, beardless, his eyes were slightly closed, his skin was dry, his knuckles were exposed, he was more than seven feet tall, and he was wearing a cyan robe.
He sighed in his heart: It's hard for you!
When the person came to ride the horse, he was vigorous, but after getting off the horse, he trembled and trembled, and he was not afraid to come to the sky, bowed down, arched his hand, and respectfully greeted: "Mr. Don't come to harm, student Zhuang Boyang ......"
"Excuse it!" Seeing Zhuang Boyang walking to him, Tian was not afraid to jump off the lame donkey carefully, and he was about to snatch the sugar gourd in his hand with one hand.
"Sir!" Zhuang Boyang's face was straight, and he said: "When the student came, he remembered that you liked to eat this thing, so he bought a skewer for you and rushed over. ”
Tian was not afraid of being unhappy, and asked, "What's wrong, I'll tell others that you respect the teacher, can't you?" ”
"You can't say that." Zhuang Boyang still refused, "If you say so, the students will know that you care about the students and do not forget the contributions and contributions made by the students!" ”
"yes, what's so bad about that?" Tian is not afraid to be in a hurry, and at this moment, it seems that all the worms in his stomach have woken up and he is crazy with hunger.
"It's a good idea, but it's not the best way." Zhuang Boyang ignored it, and had to finish speaking, "What the student wants to say is the problem of hard work, there is nothing in this world that can be done, sometimes even if it can't be done, we can't chill people's hearts, and make people feel ashamed and resentful." ”
I'm not afraid to hear it, it makes sense!
"So what do you say?"
"The student thinks that since this thing was bought for you, it naturally can't change the original intention." Zhuang Boyang looked at the sky and was about to rejoice, and then followed: "But...... Students send sugar gourds to honor you, this is merit; Thousands of miles to come, this is suffering; There is both merit and hard work, so the students think that since there are two strings of sugar gourds, why don't we have one string each? ”
Flower Hate Willow had never seen such a tangled expression. On the one hand, he really wanted to eat both skewers, and on the other hand, what Zhuang Boyang said was also reasonable, to be a gentleman is to have the discipline of being a gentleman...... Choosing between selfish desires and public morality is indeed a bit difficult for a child who is not afraid.
"Alright then!" Tian is not afraid to finally stop being entangled, he feels that the more he does not make a decision, the longer he will endure it, and the sugar gourd that is obviously close in front of him can't be eaten, which is really painful for him.
The spoils are divided.
"Oh, this little brother is ......" took a bite of the sugar gourd, Zhuang Boyang suddenly realized, and asked towards Hua Hate Liu.
"Student ......" Hua Hate Liu is not afraid to say that Zhuang Boyang is the prime minister of Shu today, so according to the identity of the world's scholars, it is no problem to call himself a student - of course, this is in the past.
"What a student!" Tian is not afraid that his mouth and hands are full of sugar residue, but this does not prevent him from criticizing and educating his students: "He is my new student, and he is called Hua Hate Liu." The second half of the sentence was directly said to Zhuang Boyang.
"Oh? In this way, I should call you Senior Brother Hua......" Zhuang Boyang smiled slightly after hearing this, "But I don't know which of the three schools of heaven, earth, and man that Senior Brother Hua has learned?" ”
"Huh?" Hua hated Liu was still muttering in his heart that the title "Senior Brother Hua" was too evil, but unexpectedly, he had never heard of Zhuang Boyang's question.
"What? Pushing the heavens and breaking fate, feng shui yin and yang, the art of war and political affairs, don't you know which one you have learned? Zhuang Boyang felt that his new junior brother was too disagreeable, and he didn't even know what skills he had learned, so how could he use what he had learned to help the common people?
"Oh, don't ask, I haven't had time to tell him yet...... Tian is not afraid to say indifferently, "It's not pushing the heavens to break your life, it's not feng shui yin and yang, it's not the art of war and politics, to be precise, it's 'miscellaneous'!" ”
"What! Miscellaneous? When the old man heard this, he almost threw out the sugar gourd in his hand, he ignored his sticky hands, and tightly wrapped his hands around the shoulders of Hua Hate Liu, "What miscellaneous science did you study?" ”
"Uh...... Tianji seemed to have said a little bit just now, and I've been watching the art of war or something recently...... "Hua Hate Liu didn't understand why Zhuang Boyang reacted so strongly, but he felt that there was nothing wrong with telling the truth.
"You...... You...... You ......" Zhuang Boyang pointed to the flower and hated the willow "You, you" for a while, pointed to the sky and was not afraid for another while, and pointed to the lame donkey, but he didn't say the second half of the sentence.
Hua hated Liu didn't know how to respond, looking at the meaning of not being afraid of the sky, he didn't bother to respond to this kind of thing, but only the lame donkey carefully replied with two sentences: "Uh-ah-hmm-ah-"
Zhuang Boyang didn't understand what it was called, maybe it was "It's a pity, it's a pity", or it was "What's the matter", anyway, he didn't have the heart to guess.
After a while, he sighed like a frosted eggplant: "It's okay, it's okay, after all, it's hard to disobey destiny." "I walked to the sky and was not afraid, "I have helped him put a coffin for burial, although it is not as good as the quadruple coffin, but it is not bad in this world." ”
"Well, hard work." Tian was not afraid to respond, sticking out his tongue to lick the syrup left on the bamboo sticks.
"Since Mr. has a plan, the students are also relieved, it seems that there is no need for students to take care of this place, and the students want to go out for a walk again."
"Oh, don't worry, come back often, remember to bring sugar gourds." Heaven is not afraid that the most important thing cannot be forgotten.
"Student farewell!" Zhuang Boyang was also neat, and he didn't look back after the salute, how to get on the horse and gallop away.
When leaving, Zhuang Boyang did not forget to hold the string of sugar gourds tightly in his hands.
Hua Hate Liu felt that his head was not enough, he couldn't understand that this old man came here just to send a string of sugar gourds, and then care about what he learned by the way?
Respect the teacher, care about the backward, Boyang is a good comrade.
