Immediately afterwards, another reader replied: "What Lu Maocai said is extremely true, the people are the foundation of the country, and we should pay attention to it." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"The people are our food and clothing parents, without them, what would we eat? Without them, what would we wear? Drinking water and thinking about the source, although the people do not have a literary degree, they have given us precious food and clothing. ”

"Even if it is the children of the family, without the labor of the people at the bottom, they all have to go hungry, what grain in the world is not planted by the people?"

An Yan of the miscellaneous family immediately replied: "Ridiculous, ignorant! If there were no scholars, the country would have been leveled by the demon clan, and how could the people live and work in peace and contentment!"

"The people have worked hard and made great achievements, but where is it higher than us scholars? Without us, how could the people have such a day today?"

"As a scholar, it is understandable to speak for the people, but this can never change the fact that the scholar is higher than the people! The life of the scholar is more precious than the people! Because one day when a war breaks out on the Sacred Forest Continent, the first one to rush to the front is always the scholar!"

After An Yan released this remark, many readers immediately agreed with his views, and the originally neutral readers also favored him.

Lu Ming's opinions are different, the scholars repelled the invasion of the Eastern Demon and the Southern Barbarians, and it is indeed an indispensable contribution, but it must not be forgotten that all the scholars in the world are not born to be scholars, and not all the children of the family are born into a family.

"If a war breaks out on the Holy Forest Continent one day, the person who rushes to the front will definitely not be a child of a miscellaneous family. Lu Ming replied.

"It's not Lu Maocai either. An Yan did not show weakness.

"If I am not on the front line, I can still strategize and win a thousand miles. ”

"Don't be ashamed, Lu Ming, I remember that you are Liang Guomaocai, so I respect you, I didn't expect you to be so unreasonable, I will definitely teach you how to be a good person one day. ”

An Yan's words were very powerful, many readers secretly ridiculed, and some people secretly wrote down the name "An Yan" and directly included it in the "non-circle of friends".

"An Yan, right? I remember you, if we have a chance to meet, I will definitely have a good exchange with you. ”

After Lu Ming replied, he ignored it and continued to browse other messages.

Half an hour later, Lu Ming read many articles on the literary list, and then quit the literary list.

In the afternoon, at the suggestion of the Tao Governor's Mansion, the three family Hanlin led the scholars of each family to the nearby villages to search for the whereabouts of the demon people.

Lu Ming did not go with them, but went to another village with Tao Zhifu.

After arriving at the village, everyone immediately launched a search, but after a small half a day's work, there was still no trace of the demons.

In the next few days, the scholars in various prefectures, counties, and towns all searched for the demons, but they found nothing in the past few days.

Despite this, all localities have not relaxed their vigilance because of this, but have taken strict precautions.

It wasn't until the fifth day that Lu Ming and the scholars of the family met in Xinghua Town and returned to Suzhou City together.

After returning to Suzhou City, Lu Ming resigned from Zhou Dongyue as a temporary supervisor and returned to his home to study hard behind closed doors.

Two days later, Lu Ming was visited by a scholar who was in his early twenties, dressed in a clean talent suit and with a hand-cranked folding fan.

Lu Ming bowed his hand to this person, "May I ask who you are ......?"

"Below is the student Xiang Zhisheng of the Zongheng family, may I ask if your Excellency is Lu Maocai?"

"It's me, what's the matter?"

"Sure enough, it's Lu Maocai, who has been looking up for a long time. ”

Xiang Zhisheng said with a smile: "I am entrusted by Brother An Yan of the miscellaneous family to invite you to come to Suzhou Restaurant this afternoon to participate in the debate meeting, and please be able to attend the meeting." ”

After finishing speaking, he handed over the invitation and was respectful.

"Dialectical Literary Meeting?", Lu Ming's face changed slightly.

The so-called debate is based on a proposition, and the two sides have different opinions and refute each other, and the winner is famous for one side, and the loser is discredited.

When it comes to debates, the most famous ones are the Taoist Zhuangzi's "Debate of Fish and Music" and the famous Gongsun Long's "White Horse Not Horse".

And the most proficient at dialectics are the Zongheng family and the Mo family, in addition, there are also some scholars in the miscellaneous family who are proficient in dialectics and have a good reputation, including An Yan.

"Dare to ask Brother Xiang, An Yan is also in Suzhou City?", Lu Ming asked.

"That's right, Brother An Yan is the most eloquent reader in the miscellaneous family, and he has been traveling around the country to hold dialectical literary meetings in recent years. ”

"I see. ”

Lu Ming nodded slightly, knowing the general situation in his heart, he didn't expect that An Yan would come to Suzhou in person for the things on the literary list, presumably to use his dialectics to attack his literary name and discredit himself.

"Please let Xiao Sheng speak bluntly, what kind of debate is An Yan good at?"

"That's a lot, in fact, it doesn't matter if you tell you at all, after all, Brother An Yan has countless debates, and very few people can beat him. ”

Xiang Zhisheng smiled slightly, was very confident in An Yan, and said: "I'll take a famous argument that Brother An Yan is good at the debate of 'white horses and non-horses'. ”

"Isn't that a representative work of a famous artist? I wonder who has more eloquence ability compared to Brother An Yan and the scholars of the Gongsun family?"

"It's up to them individually. ”

Xiang Zhisheng said: "Although the Dialectical Literary Society refutes each other with the name of the text, it is actually based on communication, and victory or defeat does not matter. ”

It seems that Brother Xiang is also a debater, and he can speak so high-soundingly, and his face is not red or breathless. ”

"Why did Lu Maocai say this?"

"Brother An Yan has already released his words on the literary list, and his tone is very great, this dialectical literary meeting is coming at me, the purpose is to use dialectics to attack my literary name, it is impossible for you, as his friend, not to know. ”

Hearing Lu Ming's direct point, Xiang Zhisheng's face was not different, and he was very calm.

"Lu Maocai is thinking too much, scholars pursue the holy path of self-cultivation and self-cultivation, and there is nothing else to ask for, and reputation is something outside the body, since you are a gentleman known to the world, how can you be dragged down by reputation?"

"Brother Xiang is reasonable, but there are only a handful of people who can really regard the name as dung today, but there will definitely be no peace in it. ”

"Why?"

"An Yan just wanted to promote his literary name, so he came to me. ”

Xiang Zhisheng's expression finally changed and he didn't speak.

"The debate will be quite interesting, please tell Brother An Yan, I will definitely come to participate in the afternoon. Lu Ming said.

"Then we are waiting for Lu Maocai to come. ”

Xiang Zhisheng smiled and waved slightly at Lu Ming, "There are still invitations to be sent below, so don't bother more, just leave!"

"Slow down to my brother!" (To be continued.) )
