Li Keding thought to himself: In this world, there is really rampant scheming and bustling, all for profit. up to Yuan Shikai and those who seek Yuan from all walks of life; From the cultural pioneers to the three religions and nine streams, all living beings are busy for interests. Only a saint is 'unrighteous and rich and noble, like a floating cloud to me.'" Now that the avenue is not good, the heart of a saint is about to be thrown into the dust of history. This vast earth is planting arrogant slogans, what monster will grow in the future, to desolate this wilderness, to plague this world? Yue Fei once wrote about cleaning up the old mountains and rivers, which are trampled by iron hooves; Who will clean up the old mountains and rivers of this culture in the future. Those who eliminate evil on the surface, but in fact go to good, abound, and their unashamed words are like a cursed flood, which is poisoning the four wildernesses and bewitching the world that has lost the Great Dao.

Lu Wan saw that Li Keding had been pondering, looking at him with autumn-like eyes, and said with a smile: "Fang is born and dies, Fang is dead and alive, the demolition of one temple may be the establishment of another temple." Let's go to our school, we can't take care of that much, let them live and die. ”

Li Keding saw that Lu Wan was between flowers and clear water, his eyes were like autumn water, his words were leisurely, and he was calm and indifferent, so he said: "I really envy you, you can be so detached." But I'm a layman, and I prefer to eat radishes salty and worry about it. Now I feel that it is also very good to put aside everything and live this earthly life with you. ”

Lu Wan glanced at him and thought to himself that if he could really live this earthly life with you, then the world would be even more splendid. I fantasized about being with Li Keding: 'Look at the rise and fall of the sun, the waxing and waning of the moon, the soothing volume of the clouds, and the blooming of flowers', and I can't help but be intoxicated.

Li Keding looked at Lu Wan with a yearning look, so cute, and when he was about to get close to her, he heard Gu Luocheng call him: "Keding, it turns out that you came down to the lake." ”

"Why are you back again, Kejing, you sent home?" Li Keding asked him.

"Sent back." Gu Luocheng said, "Don't worry, Kejing is not a child." ”

"It's good that you know, I can tell you, don't bother Kejing's crooked thoughts, otherwise, I won't be able to spare you." Li Keding said solemnly.

Gu Luocheng was very disdainful of this, and sarcastically mocked Li Keding: "Cut! What do you think, I, Gu Luo, are honest and open-minded, and you don't want to measure me with the heart of a villain. ”

Lu Wan saw that the two of them were arguing again, so he said, "Luo Cheng, you came back on purpose to tell Keding and send Kejing home?" ”

Only then did Gu Luocheng remember what Liu Zhisi had entrusted him, and he hurriedly sent the invitation.

At noon on Saturday, after eating in the school cafeteria, Li Keding and Lu Wan followed him to the school magazine editorial room according to the agreement with Gu Luocheng.

At this moment, Liu Zhisi is studying with Qin Zhou in an article. Qin Zhou is the first capable cadre under Liu Zhisi, the son of Qin Xiangbei, the fourth master of the Qin family in Jingnan, 20 years old this year, good appearance, reserved and calm, influenced by his ancestors, he likes to study the Book of Changes, so his classmates gave him a good name, called 'Little Zhou Gong'.

Gu Luocheng brought the two in, Li Keding and Liu Zhisi met again and greeted each other, this time Li Keding was fully mentally prepared, so he did not lose his temper. Liu Zhisi is still so generous and decent, and after greeting Li Keding, he came to see Lu Wan.

Lu Wan had only seen Liu Zhisi from a distance before, but this time she saw it up close, which made her heart tremble, and she secretly thought that she was so naturally beautiful and flawless, could she be Eve, the only deliberately created by God. Seeing that she was wearing a light red silk dress embroidered with floral patterns, her skin was like jade, she was dignified, her beautiful eyes were affectionate, and she was as happy as she was ashamed, as if she had a halo, which made people feel ashamed in front of her, and her eyes were also attracted by her, and she unconsciously moved back and forth with her figure.

Liu Zhisi has heard of Lu Wan for a long time, and now he sees Lu Wan's long figure, thick hair draped behind his head, his face is like a flower, he looks like autumn water, tactful and light, and praises in his heart, what a symbol beauty.

Take your seats and get down to business. Qin Zhou first gave a general introduction to the school magazine: it was said that this journal was a monthly magazine, and when there was a special topic, it would be added appropriately. The journal not only reports on the situation in the school, but also pays attention to the situation at home and abroad, focusing on enlightening and guiding everyone's thoughts. He then made clear the theme of this issue, that is, 'The Shadow of the Western War on China', and said that after this great war, the Western powers will inevitably suffer a great loss of vitality, and the international environment that is conducive to China's long-term development will certainly be able to make achievements as long as we change ourselves and abandon the shackles of the old ideas.

Liu Zhisi added: "Looking at the path taken by the Western powers today, their strength depends on the development of science and the establishment of institutions. But many of our traditions are like a big pot lid, suppressing the vitality of social innovation, so it is what we should do to lift the lid on the head of the nation and let the new sunshine shine into China. ”

Lu Wan listened to Liu Zhisi's words softly, but firmly and powerfully; smiling, but also a bit majestic; I thought that although this person was not old and extremely beautiful, he was quite a king, no wonder countless people were prostrate at her feet and crazy about her.

Li Keding's attention is completely different from Lu Wan, he listened to Liu Zhisi and Qin Zhou, the purpose seems to be advocating a new culture, but I don't know whether these two people want to completely deny the tradition, or partial negation, remembering the demolition of the Shenzhou Confucian Temple, which can have a lot to do with Liu Zhisi, so he asked: "Now someone has set a precedent, I heard that the Confucian Temple in Shenzhou has been demolished, I don't know what the two of you think about this matter?" ”

After hearing this, Qin Zhou thought for a while and said, "I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing!" Crabs always need to be eaten by the first person, and then everyone dares to eat them. As for whether it is good or not, it depends on the impact after demolition, if it is beneficial to the society, naturally some people will follow up one after another; If it is not good for society, it should be regarded as an experiment, and everyone should take it as a warning. ”

Li Keding thought that Qin Zhou was full of blood, and his heart to save the country was commendable. But how to save the country, how to try to be strong? Is it necessary to defeat Kong Meng to save the country? asked Qin Zhou: "I have a question, and I want to ask, what is the reason for China's backwardness?" I have never figured this out, but I used to hear that it was because the Western powers extorted money, then I heard that it was because there was no constitution, and now I heard that it was because of Confucianism. Which one is true? I hope to get your advice to clear my mind. ”

Without waiting for Qin Zhou to answer, Liu Zhisi had already understood Li Keding's intentions, and said that this matter should not be argued, and there would be nothing to argue about in a short period of time, it would only lead to mutual dissatisfaction, so he smiled and said to Li Keding: "I appreciate you for thinking so much." Now that I have the opportunity, I would like to listen carefully to your views and talk about the root causes of China's backwardness. However, let's just make a small talk today, I am very happy to officially meet you and Lu Wan, and I hope we can become good friends. ”
