Eastern Zhou, Luoyi.

Xia Li, who is very familiar with Xianyang, after coming to Luoyi, gave him a completely opposite feeling.

Xianyang is orderly, and in the construction of the city, you can see the majesty of the Kansai Han and the strict hierarchy of the bureaucracy.

But Luoyi is different, it is very relaxed and relaxed, relatively free and loose, and merchants and envoys between the princes often gather here, making it a more inclusive and interesting place.

Xia Li stayed here for a while, and obviously felt that the people of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty were better at communicating, more sleek accidents, and skilled in human feelings.

Xia Li didn't know what year it was, he inquired about the current time, and probably vaguely knew that it might be the end of Spring and Autumn.

Unfortunately, even Xia Li, who was in the Qin Dynasty, knew very little about the history that had passed for three hundred years.

After drinking a few cups of tea in the teahouse in Luoyi, it was already noon, and I had a little meal on the street by the way.

Coincidentally, Xia Li heard some news after eating, and the most well-informed here were those merchants who were in an endless stream.

The businessmen who listened to the Lu accent said with some pride that they came with Confucius, and Confucius promised to let his children go to school with him, and the businessmen were very happy.

After Xia Li heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, this seemed to be a very good time.

Confucius stood at thirty and greeted Lao Tzu, if what the merchant said was right, he must be about to arrive.

Confucius is also famous now, he opened a private school and taught without class, and he is also a very famous teacher.

Xia Li rested in the inn.

Compared with waiting for Confucius, Laozi Li Dan is easier to find, just ask directly in Luoyi, where Laozi Li Dan manages various classics of the Zhou royal family.

is also a person who has read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles, and has a lot of knowledge.

The big names in the Mingyue world of the Qin Shi actually know some martial arts more or less, not to mention the Lao Tzu Li Dan, who founded the entire Taoism, there are still very few wise men like Han Fei who really don't learn martial arts.

Not to mention Confucius, he is a standard Shandong man, tall, strong bones, the six arts are also advocated both civil and military, in addition to driving, Confucius believes that driving is also a science.

is a practical skill.

Xia Li glanced at Luoyi, there are many people here who know martial arts, and there are several people who have very strong internal strength, and finally Xia Li's attention is fixed on an old man who came out of the library of the Zhou royal family.

The man looked to be in his sixties, but he was in good health, in good spirits, and radiant.

At this time, there must be no clear Taoist statement, looking at the old man's appearance, alone, he went home after work, and did not accept disciples.

Chat groups.

Xia Li: "Wang Yuyan is not there?" ”

Wang Yuyan: "Here, what's wrong with the group leader?" ”

Xia Li: "Good news for you, I've also traveled through time." ”

Wang Yuyan: "When did the group leader go?" Is it the future or the past? ”

Sister Bao'er Society: "Let me say it must be in the past." ”

Xia Li: "That's right, I came to the Spring and Autumn Period, and I also met the ancestor of Taoism, Laozi Li Dan, and Confucius also came soon. ”

Sister Social Bao'er: "Oh. ”

Flame Spirit Ji: "Why don't you go to the future to take a look, I really want to know how beautiful I will be when I become an adult, as the saying goes, the eighteen changes of the female university, I will definitely look better." ”

Qi Lin: "You little goblin, you're already very beautiful, what do you want?" ”

Flame Spirit: "Beauty never ends. ”

Xia Li: "When I finish the things here, I will go to your world, and if I can travel freely, I will take you to see what your future will look like." ”

Flame Spirit Ji: "Okay. ”

Xia Li was a little helpless, after she saw it, she would probably be even more depressed, her future was more beautiful, but the experience was even worse.

Although she didn't follow Tian Ze to fight now, and didn't let his thief ship, but in her future, even if she was at home, she would only have a mere fifteen years to live, and fifteen years later, when Han Feike died in the Qin Kingdom, the world of Tianxing Nine Songs would end, and she would disappear with it.

Tianji Wang Hexi: "Does the group leader really master the ability to travel through time?" ”

Xia Li: "I'm not very proficient yet, don't worry, wait until I'm familiar with it again." ”

After Xia Li chatted with them for a few words, his mind returned to reality.

Evening.

Xia Li saw Li Dan, the old man who had eaten and came out to play, from Xia Li's point of view, his internal strength was very profound, and compared with the Mingyue world of Qin Shi, even if the Eastern Emperor Taiyi was in front of him, it was much inferior.

Although the old man was old, he was not retired, and he was in good spirits, and after dinner, he went out for a walk and rested.

Xia Li took this opportunity to say hello to him.

After all, this person is the ancestor of Taoism, and his status in China has always been very high, sometimes higher than the holy master Confucius.

Now that he has seen me, Xia Li, as a junior, should be respected enough.

Xia Li was still very polite, he thought about it for a long time before he came up with a name that was both lined up and not seen.

Xia Li beckoned: "Hello, Lao Li." ”

Li Dan didn't know him, but when he saw that it was him, he chimed in: "Well, wow, have the children eaten?" ”

Xia Li said with a smile: "I ate it." ”

The two exchanged a few words, and together in a crowded place, they heard the storyteller tell a story, which was very interesting and comfortable.

This old man is not like Master Xun, he reads in the study all day long, he is very talkative, although he is not familiar with Xia Li, but it doesn't matter, he chatted as soon as he came up, pulled him to tell him a lot of small stories, talked eloquently, and always had a trace of a smile on his mouth.

It's an interesting old man.

Xia Li asked, "Lao Li, I heard that you are from Chu, right?" ”

Li Dan nodded and said: "Yes, but there is only myself left at home, it doesn't matter, my peace of mind is my hometown, wherever I go, it doesn't matter where I live." ”

Xia Li chatted with him for a while, this kind and wise old man saw very clearly, his heart was open-minded, and his heroism of not liking things or being sad was vividly displayed in him.

Li Dan said with a smile: "Young man, you don't look like an ordinary person, where did you come from?" ”

It's just that in this world, etiquette is broken, and it is impossible for a person with a heart to stay out of the matter willingly, Xia Li finds it hard to believe that he can really bring his ability into the coffin with peace of mind if he has a peerless talent.

Xia Li said: "I'm from Xianyang, I'm going to play around and stop and stop, I heard that Confucius from Lu has recently come to Luoyi, so I want to stay and see, if I'm lucky, I can meet in person." ”

Li Dan nodded, he is old, and his favorite thing is to chat with others, if Kong Qiu really comes, he has to find a way to chat with him.

After thinking for a while, Li Dan said: "Since the children want to see Kongqiu, I will find someone to inquire tomorrow, let's have a dinner in the evening and chat while eating." ”

Xia Li readily agreed: "Okay." ”

The two of them chatted a few more words, and they were all short parents, and outsiders sounded very vulgar.

They sat in the teahouse and chatted for a while, Xia Li listened to the story of the storyteller on the stage, a little bored, and gradually felt a little sleepy, then waved his hand to him, and went back.

After Xia left, Li Danmu saw him off, then stood up, picked up the Mazha on the ground, carried it behind him, and left the teahouse.

He doesn't like to sit on the ground, his legs hurt, he can't sit on the bench, his buttocks hurt, or this Maza, which doesn't look like it's on the table, is comfortable to make, and it's soft.

Xia Li returned to the inn, thinking a lot of things in his mind, this Luoyi was far from his original imagination, and after staying for two days, he could understand Lao Tzu's thoughts somewhat.

There are only more than 5,000 words in the Tao Te Ching, which is the amount of words that an online writer can complete in a day (some people can't finish it), Li Dan poured his life's learning into it, and Xia Li didn't know whether what he knew about Li Dan was true or self-righteous.

It's just that the ease and comfort of this Luoyi, the feudal hierarchy is not obvious here, the slavery system has come to an end, and many young strong laborers have also been freed, and it seems that everything is better than imagined.

Luoyi of the Zhou Dynasty has not fought for many years, and since the Zhou Dynasty suffered a loss to the Duke of Zheng Zhuang that year, the royal family has changed its policy, and it has become a slippery head from top to bottom, and it can no longer be tough.

With fewer wars, there will naturally be fewer slaves.

The utopian-like Ida system gave the common people plenty of freedom at this time, and Li Dan was in this environment, which was unique and absolutely unique.

The old class order is facing collapse, and the new class order is not yet clear.

This point in time is indeed strange enough, there is a war all over the world, and there is a war between the princes for three days and two ends.

Only the Zhou Dynasty is relatively stable here, no matter how bad the etiquette is, it will not affect the rice bowl, and the people of Luoyi, even the storytellers, can laugh and talk about the wars of other countries.

Others are fighting, and the Zhou Dynasty is watching the play.

The royal family of the Zhou Dynasty has also undergone several changes, but the impact is not great, and it can't be fought, after all, there are not many soldiers in hand, and basically the solution to the change of the royal family is assassination.

Assassination is simple and can be done in a moment.

Because of the face of the Son of Heaven, no one took the initiative to beat them, and they also made offerings regularly.

It has become a unique paradise in troubled times.

The people of Luoyi have found a unique way of survival.

In this environment, the people of Luoyi, including Lao Tzu Li Dan, have invariably formed an idea that has never been used before and will not be useful in the future.

It's the Taoist school.

Let Xia Li feel that maybe this is like what Kong Qiu said, do what you want from your heart.

Xia Li fell asleep in the inn, and after waking up, it was the next day.

After Xia Li woke up and eaten, Luoyi was still bustling with people, even more open than any other city.

It's the evening of the day again.

An old man, a young man, and a young man found a meal, asked for a few hard dishes, and waited for a good seat.

The half-dead etiquette system, the etiquette is still there, but the class is no longer a little unstable, especially in the strange place of Luoyi.

Xia Li smiled and poured wine for the two of them, this young man was Kong Qiu from Lu State, he was indeed the strongest man among the three, and he was also tall, so he should also have the strength to handle it.

The identities of these people are completely different, Li Dan is an iron rice bowl with eight classics, he is a member of the imperial court, Kong Qiu is a teacher and is famous, Xia Li made up an identity and said that he was selling red dates.

Li Dan was a little impressed by Xia Li, this kid couldn't see it, he was quite rich.

Kong Qiu said with some loss: "Luoyi is the center of the world, and it is also the center of etiquette, but what I have seen and heard in Luoyi in the past few days seems to be that I can't see the etiquette and music of King Wu." ”

Kong Qiu was a little disappointed, he had been in Luoyi for a long time in the past few days, originally he thought that in terms of etiquette and music, Luoyi should be a high-profile version of the Lu Kingdom, but he didn't expect it to be a low-profile version of the Qi Kingdom.

The attitudes of Qi and Lu are very different in their treatment of etiquette and music, and Lu Guo was the back cover of King Wu's younger brother Zhou Gong, and he was a real cronie.

This is not the case with the Qi State, the Qi State is Jiang Ziya's fiefdom, the status of this old man has been blown a little too much, and the people of Qi are fierce, and those who are not polite and happy have long been left behind.

The two countries are only separated by a mountain, but they are worlds apart.

Li Dan smiled at the chaotic taste: "Come to Kongqiu, come all the way, eat first." ”

Kong Qiu was not ambiguous, picked up the rice bowl and started eating.

Li Dan said: "Kongqiu, no matter how you say it, there will be no more in the past, who said that the future will not be expensive and better than the past, let it be." ”

Kong Qiu smiled bitterly, and said in his heart, this Luoyi made him a little disappointed, he traveled around the world to read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, originally thought that Luoyi, as the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, should be the holy place in his heart.

And that's it.

It's probably like after Tang Sanzang arrived in the West Heaven and saw that Anan and Jiaye were going to take in personnel, it shouldn't be worse.

Even if he accepted the personnel, Tang Sanzang still retrieved the true scriptures.

Kong Qiu's feeling now is like Tang Sanzang in the Western Heavens, but he didn't get the true scriptures.

The only thought left was to hope that the Buddha would give him a few words.

Confucius frowned, very puzzled in his heart, and asked: "If there is chaos today, with the ability of the master, he must be able to do something, why should he be content with the status quo?" Could it be that the current state is what the Master wants to see? ”

Xia Li has been listening to the conversation between the two of them, but they have said over and over again that they just can't talk together, and they are always arguing on opinions.

The rice is not fragrant.
