Chapter 3: The Great Confucianism that Saves the World and the People
As the capital of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City is prosperous, and the architectural concept of law and heaven makes this metropolis full of nobility, prosperity and mystery.
The streets are full of traffic, countless merchants and vendors come and go, and the crowds of people who rush to shop shuttle through the bustling streets and alleys.
Many literati and scholars also played on the streets, admiring the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.
On Ximen Street, a group of people crowded around a hut, making a lot of noise, but the people in the house were quiet, lined up neatly, and did not dare to make a loud noise.
The four walls of the house are full of embroidery. The fragrance of the duck is unbroken, and the magnetic bottle water is clear. On both sides of the wall are Wang Wei's paintings, and a portrait of Guiguzi hangs high on the seat.
On the desk, there is a river inkstone, gold smoke ink, and a large pen of frost, and on the left is a fire bead forest, Guo Pushu and Taiwan political Xinjing.
Behind the desk sat a middle-aged man with a strange appearance and a coercive appearance, quietly calculating, sometimes closing his eyes and thinking deeply, sometimes writing hard.
The man standing in front of the desk held his breath and waited quietly for his calculations.
When the hexagram shop was full of people, no one noticed that a handsome young man with a delicate appearance, wearing Confucian clothes, and heroic appeared quietly at the mouth of the West Street, with a pair of eyes shining, looking at the hexagram shop thoughtfully, this young man was Li Chong. Today, I came to see Yuan Shoucheng.
Although Li Chong is a prince, he is not known, and just in case, Li Chong also specially used his soul power to transform his appearance.
However, when Li Chong arrived, a trace of shock suddenly appeared in the quiet and steady expression of the fortune teller in the shop. Eyes searched outside, as if trying to find something.
The middle-aged man in this hexagram shop is naturally Yuan Shoucheng, the uncle of Yuan Tiangang, who is now the Qintian Supervisor.
Looking at Yuan Shoucheng, Li Chong couldn't help but think of Wu Chengen's description of him in Journey to the West.
The six masters are familiar with and proficient in gossip. can know the geography of the sky, and know the expression of ghosts. One neck noon is arranged by the master, and the belly is full of stars. The real future things, the past things, look like a moon mirror, a few prosperous, a few defeated, like a god. Knowing the evil and determining the auspicious, judging the death and the life. Talking about the wind and rain, the next pen is terrifying.
Although this description is extremely exaggerated, Li Chong did not dare to underestimate Yuan Shoucheng, judging from the fact that Yuan Shoucheng later made a selfless plan to break the rules of heaven and the old dragon king, this person definitely has the talent to go through the heavens and latitudes, although he is only a warlock now, but Li Chong still understands the truth of the hidden dragon in the abyss.
It's just a little sorry for the head of state, but later Yuan Shoucheng was used by Buddhists to start a journey to the west, but he was forced to leave the country. But now Li Chong is not here to lament Yuan Shoucheng, but to stop the Jinghe Dragon King from being beheaded, so as to achieve the purpose of stopping the journey to the west.
The beginning of the old dragon king's clumsy plan to commit the heavenly rules was that the fisherman Zhang Xiao's salvage of the Jinghe aquarium transition caused the dragon king's uneasiness and caused a gambling fight, so the best way now is to follow Zhang Xiao to prevent the dragon king from coming to gamble.
Now Li Chong doesn't know who Zhang Xiao is, but as long as he stares at who sent the golden carp, he can determine that person is Zhang Xiao.
Although this is a bit of a waiting, Li Chong knows that Yuan Shoucheng only counts three pillars a day, so he won't wait too long.
Sure enough, in less than a moment, an old man walked from a distance, holding a golden carp in his hand, and walked into the hexagram shop with joy on his face.
Seeing this old man, Li Chong was overjoyed, and finally waited for the fisherman Zhang Xiao, now as long as he touches the melon, he can see the little dragon of Jinghe, as long as he is persuaded to prevent the dragon king from being killed.
It didn't take long for the fisherman Zhang Xiao to walk out of the hexagram shop happily and towards the outside of the city. I am going to know where Zhang Xiao lives, so I can follow him to the Jing River tomorrow.
Because I don't know when the little dragon will come out, I can only use this stupid method, although Li Chong of the immortal realm can easily enter the Dragon Palace, but you can't tell the Jinghe Dragon King as soon as you enter, you can't go to investigate the large number of disappearances of the Jinghe Water Tribe, otherwise you will be killed.
Let's talk about whether you can enter it easily, that is, when you enter the Dragon Palace, you suddenly say so, and you won't be beaten out of the Dragon Palace by those dragon sons and grandsons as crazy people.
As soon as he got out of the city gate, Li Chong found that this Zhang Xiao actually walked straight to the Jing River and came to the Jing River.
"Are you looking for a place to fish, and you can't fish the next day?"
Puzzled, Li Chong hid in the dark and quietly watched the fisherman's behavior.
After searching for a long time, Zhang Xiao seemed to have found a place, sat down and took out a fishing rod and started fishing.
"Haha, since there are a lot of fish here, let's catch more,"
Hearing Zhang Xiao's laughter, Li Chong couldn't help but scold, this guy is simply greedy, no wonder the huge Jing River cares so much about and hates a fisherman's hammer fishing for a day and a moment.
The feeling is that this fisherman is too eager to kill.
In less than a moment, Zhang Xiao caught several huge koi fish, including a golden carp.
But Zhang Xiao doesn't seem to have any intention of stopping fishing.
Li Chong on the side felt that it was too much.
According to this guy's greed, it's strange that Jinghe doesn't look for Yuan Shoucheng to settle accounts, but now that he knows the whereabouts of the old fisherman, he is waiting for the little dragon to play.
All I can do now is to wait for the rabbit, and in order to survive, patience is inevitable.
After a long time, Zhang Xiao's fish basket could no longer fit it, so he was reluctant to leave slowly. Looking at the old fisherman's departure, Li Chong couldn't help but sweat for the Jinghe Water Tribe, and these Water Tribes were finally spared.
Li Chong is not prepared to follow the old fisherman, as long as he guards the Jing River on time.
And Li Chong always felt that this old fisherman was very weird, to be precise, the difficulty of the water tribe of Jinghe, the opening of the Journey to the West was caused by this inconspicuous fisherman, because this fisherman was too inconspicuous, so all everyone's eyes were focused on Yuan Shoucheng and the Dragon King of Jinghe, who would care about this ordinary mortal who could not be an ordinary mortal. But it was this mortal who was extremely ordinary in the eyes of the world that caused a great change in the earth.
Based on these, Li Chong always felt that this old fisherman was not so simple, it was too ordinary but it didn't make people feel ordinary, but Li Chong's super sense of death soul power did not find any flaws, so Li Chong was even more puzzled by the old fisherman Zhang who had not gone far.
Looking at the old fisherman who was getting farther and farther away, Li Chong was also happy in his heart, today's harvest was still good, and now he had to consider how to get close to the little dragon dragon and the Jinghe dragon king, so as to further prevent the dragon king from being beheaded.
Since coming to this world, Li Chong has not been to Jinghe, and now he has finally come here, ready to take the opportunity to visit this famous river.
Walking slowly along the river, looking at the clear and huge river, Li Chong couldn't help but feel that the environment in this world is really good, and the river is much bigger than his own world.
"Baa-baa"
Just as Li Chong was playing with his surname, a flock of sheep came from the shore.
"Hey, how can there be sheep by the river?"
Surprised, Li Chong walked towards the place where the sheep crowed.
Seeing a beautiful girl in palace costume from a distance, without any powder, giving people a feeling of weakness and pity, with infinite sorrow on her face, which makes people feel extremely pitiful.
She was surrounded by countless animals that looked like sheep and not sheep, and these animals cried like sheep but brought all kinds of thunderous feelings.
Seeing this palace girl, Li Chong's eyes froze, in the induction of soul power, the strength of this girl actually reached the realm of ghosts and immortals, and the breath on her body faintly had a kind of oppression, which seemed to be a natural coercion, and those sheep seemed to be like the legendary dragon rain workers.
After possessing the ability of the god of death, the powerful soul power sensor can penetrate the strength of other people in Tsing Yi.
Although this woman's strength is strong, after having the strength of the god of death, Li Chong's lowest strength is also a human immortal, and he is not afraid of this woman, but now he has a great curiosity about this woman.
There is an immortal on the side of this Jing River, and he is also the weakest ghost immortal, you must know that Jing River is close to Chang'an City, if there is no position of canonization in the heavenly court, it is impossible for these immortals to come to Chang'an City, let alone a small ghost immortal.
And this immortal is completely on the side of the river, generally speaking, Jinghe is under the jurisdiction of the Dragon King of Jinghe, and he is a righteous immortal canonized by the heavenly court, with the official position of the heavenly court, and the area under his jurisdiction does not allow other immortals to come and go at will, of course, you are strong, he can't control it, so he can only turn a blind eye, but this woman is just a ghost immortal, and she is grazing rain workers in this bright and bright way, which is not only trespassing into the field, but also interfering in internal affairs.
The most important thing is that Jinghe is located in Chang'an City, Yanjing through the ages, not to mention a small ghost immortal, even if it is a powerful Taiyi Scattered Immortal, he must shrink his immortal power and pretend to be an ordinary person, otherwise it will conflict with the Ziwei Emperor Qi in the city.
If you are a Taiyi Golden Immortal, or even a Heavenly Immortal, or if you have a stable Dao heart and master special exercises, you can not be afraid of Ziwei Emperor Qi.
Then you also have to live with those Confucian Confucians in Chang'an City. These great Confucians devote themselves to Confucianism and pay attention to humane governance, although there is no immortal magic, but they have studied Confucianism all their lives, devoted themselves to humanity, and have their own heroic righteousness in their hearts. It can be integrated with heaven and earth, mobilize the righteousness of heaven and earth, and those who are profound in Confucianism can even easily drink the strong people at the level of immortals with a word, if you practice evil Taoism, then those who do not enter the immortals, the great Confucianism will die as soon as you drink it. Even if you are cultivating the righteous path, then the ghost immortal will not be able to escape the drink, if the human immortal is not stable in the Dao heart, he will not be able to escape serious injury, even the earth immortal master will be suppressed to death.
Legend has it that at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, a Demon Dao Taiyi Golden Immortal and many immortal demon masters tried in vain to subvert the Tang Dynasty and support the Demon Dao Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty officials and troops were simply unable to resist these immortals. A large number of troops died, and people were displaced.
Just when the Tang Dynasty was in crisis, Yan Shenggong led seventy-two Confucians to Chang'an. In the face of Taiyi Golden Immortal, Yan Shenggong shouted loudly, mobilizing the Haoran righteousness of the entire Chang'an region, and this Demon Dao Golden Immortal was drunk to death by Yan Shenggong.
The seventy-two great Confucians even joined forces to kill the Dao Demon Immortals who tried to subvert the Tang Dynasty. From then on, the Demon Dao did not dare to commit the Tang Dynasty.
This is the only time that Confucianism has made a move in recent years, and it is also the most shocking. From then on, the immortals of heaven and earth did not dare to despise Confucianism, nor did they dare to interfere easily in human affairs. Those immortal and demon masters who were not strong did not dare to approach Chang'an.
Moreover, in order to minimize Confucianism's restraint on themselves, the two profound cultivators of Taoism and Buddhism will study Confucian classics, and some are even well-educated people, but these immortal Buddhas will never become great Confucians, because Confucianism only focuses on Confucian ideals and pursues Confucianism throughout his life, and his lifelong experience is related to Confucianism and the national economy and people's livelihood. Life is short, but there are no regrets.
Therefore, Li Chong was very curious that this woman with the strength of a ghost immortal dared to approach Chang'an City. And this woman can't be a person from Jinghe, she has never heard of an immortal-level dragon girl in Jinghe, and she is an immortal but she is grazing rain workers, all of which seems incredible.
With curiosity, Li Chong unconsciously slowly walked towards the woman.
