Lao Dao got up and looked at Li Chong and the others, and said with a smile: "Thank you two sons, Lao Dao really has something to do, although my pot of soup medicine can also cure diseases, but if you add some sulfur, the effect will be better, I don't know if this son can help?" Lao Dao looked at Li Chong and Li Jing's war horses while talking, sulfur is not very valuable, so Lao Dao didn't mention money, the key is that the war horse, walking to buy sulfur, came back and the medicine was burned dry.

Li Chong's face was embarrassed, what should I do if Li Jing ran away when he went to buy medicine by himself? Let Li Jing go to buy medicine, that is even more idiotic, the two of them will go together, I rely on you to buy some sulfur and use two people to go together?

Lao Dao asked with some surprise: "Is there any difficulty with this son?" ”

Li Zhong smiled bitterly: "War horses can be lent to the villagers, Dao Chief, you can find someone who can ride a horse to buy medicine, it is inconvenient for the two of us to separate." ”

"Oh!" Lao Dao glanced at Li Jing thoughtfully, stretched out his hand to greet the villagers, fortunately, in the Sui and Tang dynasties, the people were strong, and it was not difficult to find someone who could ride a horse.

"I don't know the name of Changzun?" Li Zhong asked casually.

The old Taoist priest also replied casually: "Sun Simiao." ”

Li Chongzheng was fiddling with the weeds (that is, herbs) around Lao Dao, and when he heard this, he almost fell to the ground, and blurted out: "Medicine King Sun Simiao!" ”

Sun Simiao said with a smile: "Nonsense, although I think my medical skills are passable, I can't be called the king of medicine." ”

Li Chong didn't care about his slip of the tongue, stood up with a swish, patted the dust on his clothes, and bowed to Sun Simiao: "Senior Li Chong, I've seen Sun Daochang." ”

Sun Simiao's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "It turned out to be the famous Li Gongzi, hehe." Lao Dao can't afford your gift. ”

Sun Simiao is also a Taoist, he and Ning Daoqi are about the same age, and it is normal to have heard of Li Chong's name, so Li Chong is not entangled in Sun Simiao's own hearing, and said in a loud voice: "Affordable, affordable......"

Li Jing asked strangely on the side: "You are a strange person. I see that you don't care much about the ancient emperors and generals, why do you respect Sun Daochang so much? ”

It just so happened that Sun Simiao also had this question.

Li Chong sat down cross-legged, turned his head and asked, "Li Jing, what is your ideal?" ”

Li Jing touched his chin: "My previous ideal was to follow in the footsteps of the champion Hou, seal the wolf and live in the throne, and the name will be remembered through the ages, but now the ideal is to escape from your hands!" ”

Only then did Sun Simiao know what the relationship between the two was, no wonder Li Chong was reluctant to buy medicine in person.

Li Chong said slowly: "According to your talent, there is indeed hope to do this, and most emperors and generals can achieve fame through the ages." But you can only do this, and Sun Daochang is different, Sun Daochang can not only be famous through the ages, praised by thousands of people, and even after tens of millions of years, Sun Daochang can still influence the world, so in my heart, you are far inferior to Sun Daochang, you are far from being comparable! ”

Not only was Li Jing stunned when he said this, but even Sun Simiao himself was a little awkward when he heard it. A little embarrassed, he said: "This, Li Gongzi's words are too ...... It's ......"

Li Chong smiled: "It's too much, isn't it." Otherwise, Li Jing, think about it, how Qin Shi Huang is, unify the six countries, sweep the eight wildernesses, and then, Qin II died. Champion Hou swept the Huns. Feng Wolf Juxu, now, the grassland and the Turkic people are rising, and the Shang Dynasty has changed the law to strengthen the Qin State, and now. Confucianism reigns. Yang Jian ruled the world and established the Great Sui, which can be called a rich country and a strong people, but now it has disappeared. ”

With a long sigh, Li Chong continued: "...... Therefore, these emperors and generals can be famous for eternity, but they can only affect one era, and no one can resist the rolling tide of history, and they will be submerged in time after all. And this influence is not good or bad, there are good generals, and there are many tyrants and traitors. Sun Daochang can always influence future generations, and use his knowledge to relieve the pain of generations of people, so Sun Daochang is a person who has truly been remembered through the ages, and he deserves my respect. ”

Sun Simiao smiled and said nothing, he couldn't say that Li Chong was right, that would be too arrogant, but he couldn't say that Li Chong was talking nonsense, it would be too rude.

Li Jing somewhat agreed with Li Chong's words, and a little disdainful, doctors can indeed save lives and help the wounded, but Li Jing thinks that doctors can save too few people, and what can save all the people is ...... Li Jing couldn't say it himself, so Li Jing asked, "Then what does Li Gongzi think of Confucianism?" ”

Li Chong shook his head and smiled: "Now Confucianism is in charge and controls the temple, but I don't agree with some of the ideas of Confucianism, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty can respect Confucianism alone and depose the hundred schools, and there will be emperors with great talents to depose Confucianism in the future." Moreover, Confucianism is not the most suitable statecraft, for example, the Confucian dynasty is not necessarily the most powerful. ”

Li Chong is really not a lie, Confucianism ruled in China for thousands of years, and was completely knocked down by several emperor-level figures. And Confucianism is really not the most suitable way to govern the country, this proof is much simpler, no matter what the attitude towards the United States, whether it is love or hate, but anyone must admit that the United States is the most powerful country, and their concept of governance has nothing to do with Confucianism.

Li Jing still listened to Confucianism, and frowned when he heard this: "According to Li Gongzi's statement, Confucianism is useless?" ”

Li Zhong looked at Li Jing, and suddenly smiled: "Of course not, I still respect Confucius, but what I respect is his practice of teaching and educating people and spreading knowledge, not the concept of Confucianism." A teacher, a preacher, a teacher and a healer, is a person worthy of respect like a healer. ”

Sun Simiao listened with relish, and asked seemingly casually: "Then what does Gongzi Li think of Lao Tzu?" ”

Li Chong was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" is enough to be famous through the ages, "Tao Te Ching" is subtle, but "Tao Te Ching" is too subtle. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Sun Simiao asked very cautiously.

"Ethereal!" Li Zhong pointed to the lively villagers: "What do these people need, they need to eat well, they need doctors to treat them, they need to eat meat during the Chinese New Year, and they need to pull two more feet of flower cloth for their wives and children to make clothes." But these are not what the Tao Te Ching can bring them, the Taoist chief went to talk to them about the Tao, the Tao, the name, the name, the name! Can these people understand? They definitely don't understand, I can't understand it, Lao Tzu's concept is too high-end, and it can only be used to improve itself, transcend life and death, and it is really not suitable for governing the country.
