Chapter 43: Rise (2)

Han Long chuckled and walked to Li Ru's side, unceremoniously picked up the tea cup that belonged to Li Ru on the table, and then drank it "Gu Dong Gu Dong".

Such a bold gesture made Han Long even more shocked in the eyes of everyone.

Li Ru is very natural, looking at Han Long's unruly appearance, it makes him feel a little calm, although he can't be regarded as a cronie who has followed Han Long for many years, but he is still very much in agreement with Han Long's cautious and casual nature of small things.

"Lord Wang, this is the talent that Xiao Lao'er found for you!" Li Ru also knew what to do at this time, and directly called Duanmu Ci, who had not yet recovered from the shock behind him.

"Duanmu Ci, I've seen it.... I've seen the prince!" Duanmu Ci wanted to directly recognize the lord at first, but finally gave up, his current age is indeed an age that longs to fly and reach the princes.

But in the face of this young prince, this lord who doesn't know the future, he still hesitates.

However, Han Long didn't care about this, none of these people under his command seemed simple, but in fact, it made him think hard, and now that this Duanmu Ci was such a character, then he didn't have any surprises.

"Get up!" Han Long helped him up from the ground with a smile on his face, patted his rather thin shoulder, and looked this immature young man up and down.

"Duanmu Ci, I just watched your movements and studied Confucianism?"

"The knowledge of the ancient sages is naturally what the kid yearns for!" Duanmu Ci couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed after hearing Confucianism, "But the kid is soft-spoken now, but he once heard one or two Confucian lectures on the tree, so he ....."

"Poof!" Before Duanmu Ci's words were finished, one of the stewards of the caravan beside him let out a sneer, "It turns out that he is still a person who steals learning, so funny!"

Nowadays, Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism are all popular avenues, and each of them can lead to the supreme realm.

But now Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism require a lot of requirements.

Not to mention Buddhism, if you want to learn the Confucian method, it is not something that ordinary people can do.

Confucianism has a lot of inheritance, but all the inheritances are now passed down from generation to generation, except for some breaks.

One of the biggest consequences of going on like this is that they need a very important thing, and that is to be a teacher.

In this era, if a Confucian student without a teacher is not recognized, he will even be described by the word "stealing", which makes him even more unable to get ahead.

This kind of ridicule that has accompanied him since childhood and old age makes it difficult for them to get ahead.

And it is difficult for Confucian children who do not have a teacher to learn anything, and as for those who have a teacher, it is difficult to surpass their teacher, so after passing it down from generation to generation, it leads to the fact that although Confucianism is prosperous, there are fewer and fewer people who can really be called Confucianism.

Then in this case, when Duanmu Ci said that his Confucian knowledge was "self-taught", this could not help but make others feel funny.

"No wonder this salute is quite nondescript, it turns out that there is no teacher!"

"It's just an anti-dog to draw a tiger!"

"An ignorant child, no wonder he dares to be so presumptuous!"

A word of ridicule ran out of their mouths without hesitation, and it was Situ Hao, the city lord of Flame City who did not say a word of ridicule, and his eyes were a little contemptuous when he looked at that Duanmu Ci at this time.

In this era, this kind of person who steals people's knowledge is an existence that people can't look down on.

And for this kind of ridicule and gaze, Duanmu Ci is also used to it, if it was before, maybe he would still want to hide this matter, but now he has experienced a lot of things.

He can also see that the more he wants to hide, the more he can't hide it, but when he doesn't want to hide it, those ridicule and disdain, he can care less about it.

Looking at those who laughed at him at this time, he just smiled in return, did not argue, did not argue.

Looking at Duanmu Ci with a smile on his face, Han Long was quite amused, "When they talk about you like this, don't you have anything to refute?"

"No!" Duanmu Ci shook his head, "They weren't wrong, I didn't get anyone's recognition, and no Confucian was willing to accept me, a wild boy, as an apprentice, so they weren't wrong, and I had no way to refute it." ”

"Then that's how you recognize this identity?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Ci shook his head again, but this time he groaned a little before continuing.

"I don't think I'm a wild Confucian who steals learning, learning is learning, learning bought with money, learning bought by strength, or learning stolen by climbing trees over the wall, that's the same knowledge, I don't think I climb trees to listen to the roots of the wall, what's wrong with this. ”

"Hahaha....." After Duanmu Ci said this, everyone laughed again, and the stewards of the caravan looked at Duanmu Ci laughing wildly one by one, and their eyes were full of looking down on him.

"They all said that they were stolen, so what do you want to quibble, wild Confucianism is wild Confucianism, and it can't become a big climate!"

It can be seen that such rampant ridicule and insults still make Duanmu Ci a little uncomfortable, but after he worked hard, he suppressed this discomfort.

In this case, Han Long looked at Duanmu Ci, who had slowly returned to normal, and then looked at the stewards of the many chambers of commerce who were still laughing loudly.

"Wen You, if any of them dare to open their mouths again, they will kick me out!" Han Long's voice was very soft, and there was nothing threatening to listen to, but it made them all shut up.

At the same time, looking at this group of guys who had learned to shut up, Han Long still didn't let them go.

"Lord Situ Hao, Lone has a small request, I hope you can fulfill it!"

Han Long said it to Situ Hao, the city lord of Flame City, this time, which made Situ Hao a little surprised.

"Lord Wang, please speak!" Situ Hao can not be so respectful to Li Ru, after all, he knows Li Ru's background, and the existence of an old thief really makes him not care.

But unlike Li Ru, even if Han Long is no longer powerful, he is also the prince of Fuling Kingdom, and he is also his nobleman.

He is now being co-opted by many forces and being curried over by various chambers of commerce, and this is because of who it is, the young man in front of him.

And at this time, he didn't choose more and better forces to take refuge, and why, or because of the young man in front of him.

Therefore, in the face of this young man, he really didn't dare to be disrespectful, and in the face of his request, he didn't dare to disagree!

"If the prince has any request, just say it, the lower official will definitely obey it!" Situ Hao said directly towards Han Long with his hands in fists.

Han Long nodded towards Situ Hao, which was regarded as an endorsement of Situ Hao, and then stretched out his hand and pointed to the caravan steward who had just shouted the most and said.

"It's this guy, just now very disrespectful to Lone's subordinates, no matter what Lone's subordinates think, but Lone is not allowed to insult him, as the saying goes, the lord humiliates the minister to death, the courtier receives the insult, I, the lord, can't let him be wronged like this!

I wonder if it will be okay to drive him and the caravan behind him out of Flame City and not let them enter again for the rest of their lives?"

Han Long looked at Situ Hao in front of him with a smile on his face, and he couldn't help but agree when he saw it.

When the caravan steward who was named by Han Long saw that Situ Hao suddenly agreed to such a "ridiculous" thing, he couldn't help but be startled.

"What are you doing, I'm a ..... of one of the top ten chambers of commerce in Fuling Country"

The steward still wanted to say something, and wanted to work hard to fight for some opportunities, but before he finished speaking, Situ Hao directly interrupted his words with actions.

"A few of you, clean him out, and clean him out of his Chamber of Commerce!" Situ Hao said directly to the soldiers behind him, saying very decisively, without any hesitation.

When the steward, who was still taunting them just now, was dragged out like this, all the caravan personnel didn't dare to say any more nonsense, and there were some other things in their eyes when they looked at Duanmuci.

Looking at the scene that was finally no longer noisy, Han Long nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his finger and pointed at Duanmu Ci.

"You follow the Lonely King up!" Han Long said condescendingly, and at the same time looked at Li Ru, "Wen You looks down, who dares to make trouble.....

"The villain understands, don't worry, the prince!" Li Ru bowed his hem, and then the cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building was undoubtedly revealed.

Behind him was Situ Hao, who was full of sluggishness.

In the room, Han Long sat directly on the main seat very naturally, looking at Duanmu Ci, who was quite restrained, Han Long wanted to make such a big capital at one time.

"System, how did the Confucianism and Taoism inheritance come about?"

"The ancient sage Confucius traveled all over the world, but for some unspeakable reason this period of history was sealed in the dust, and the Confucian and Taoist inheritance can allow the person designated by the host to enter the illusion world for ten thousand years.

Directly in the illusion, follow the sage Confucius who traveled the world back then, and travel all over the world together, and then..."

"Okay, Lone knows!" Han Long directly interrupted the verbose system again in his heart, "In that case, let's withdraw the reward." ”

As one of the ten philosophers of the ancients, Zigong, he deserves his own attention and investment.

"Duanmu Ci, you cut here!" Han Long first beckoned to Duanmu Ci and let him walk in front of him, "Since you have always said that you have no inheritance, then today I will give you a piece of inheritance, I hope you will not live up to his greatness!"

After finishing speaking, Han Long didn't give him time to react, and directly pointed a finger on Duanmu Ci's forehead.

Then Duanmuci, who didn't know what this situation was, felt a wave of dizziness in front of him, and then when he regained consciousness again, he saw a majestic middle-aged man in front of him.

"Zigong, it's time for us to hit the road!"
