Volume 1 Travels Chapter 44 Lesson 1

Zhang Fan came to the entrance of Lijia Village first, and saw that there were still some old people looking at the mountain at the entrance of the village, and he did not hesitate, floated to the old people to put down the black pig, and asked them to arrange the handling of wild boars for food. I want to have a few hundred catties of black pigs enough for these apprentices to eat a good meal.

As for how these old people will arrange Zhang Fan, he will no longer pay attention, these old people can't solve it, and he will ask their village chief. Thinking of this, Zhang Fan no longer hesitated, and floated to the edge of the threshing floor. With both hands, he slowly pulled up a three-foot loess platform from the ground, and then Zhang Fan inserted the wooden card on the edge of the platform, and meditated cross-legged and floated in the air.

Zhang Fan now likes to float in the air, and floating requires maintaining the balance between the continuation of mana and the output, which will make him much more proficient in mana operation. Practice makes perfect, you must know that many spells require the user to master the mana very accurately, and mastering proficiency and precision can achieve change, and accurate mastery is only the beginning of change.

It didn't take long for the village chief of Lijia Village to come to Zhang Fan to ask about the black pig. Zhang Fan thought for a while and said; "After this black pig is cleaned, it will be divided, and each family will be divided according to the head. You look at the details as soon as possible, and we will start the first class after a while. ”

Finally, Village Chief Li arranged everything and returned, and asked Zhang Fan for instructions again, Zhang Fan got up and stood on the high platform, let Village Chief Li stand on the edge of the high platform, and then looked at everyone in the audience.

Everyone has lined up in order according to their height, standing in front of the high platform, and they can see the wooden signs on the high platform.

Zhang Fan came to the high platform and looked deeply at the people in front of him, they were either in the prime of life, or teenagers, and some were just children, but they only looked at Zhang Fan with hot and respectful eyes, which was the person who wanted to bring knowledge to them.

Looking at the people in front of him, Zhang Fan was silent again for a while before saying: "I don't know if what I teach you next is good or bad for you, things in the world don't mean that you can live a better life if you gain knowledge." It's not that without knowledge, you will have a bad life, everything is relative. So today I'm going to talk only about the first lesson, "Man", who won't give you power, but I'll try to make you see your heart clearly. After seeing your heart, you can decide tomorrow morning whether or not you want to come and study. “

After Zhang Fan finished speaking, he flipped his wrist and took out a carbon bar, wrote the word "person" on the wooden card behind him, and then wrote a stroke on the back, and then measured it to the side and turned to look at everyone.

I don't know if any of you have ever been to school and learned words, but I will only teach you one word in my first class today. Then he used the carbon bar in his hand to point to the word "human", which reads ren, the "human" of the human race, that is, our race.

This word is very simple, there are only two strokes, one stroke and one stroke, but this word is not simple. A pinch and a pinch indicate that only a man and a woman can be called a human race.

However, there are many other interpretations of this word, one of which is that it is a pictograph. It means an erect animal that knows how to bow and be humble. The reason why people are able to bow is because they think inwardly, understand the inadequacy of individual strength, and need to cooperate with others. The nature of heaven and earth is also the most noble. People are born vertically, which is more valuable than horizontal life, so they are like their upper arms and lower shins.

The second is said: people, the virtue of heaven and earth, the friendship of yin and yang, the meeting of ghosts and gods, and the beauty of the five elements. He also said: People, the heart of heaven and earth, the end of the five elements, the taste, the silence, and the color of the life. According to the birds, beasts, ships, and trees are all born of heaven and earth, and not the heart of heaven and earth; Only man is the heart of heaven and earth. Therefore, the birth of heaven and earth is extremely precious. The heart of heaven and earth is a person who can be in harmony with heaven and earth; The heart of the fruit is also called the person, who can resurrect the tree into fruit. All are small and have the whole also. (Note 1)

An ancient sage once asked a question: "What is it? It is also discerning. Meaning: What is the reason why man is human? Answer: Because people can distinguish between the upper and lower, the noble and the low, the eldest and the younger, and the relatives and relatives. Wanting to eat when hungry, wanting to warm up when cold, wanting to rest when tired, liking benefits and hating evils are the natural nature of human beings who are born and do not need to learn.

The above are all people, and one person is single, two people are subordinates, three people are many, and only when there are more people can they be called human race. Our human race is a whole, and it is a whole that requires a division of labor, and there is no high or low division of labor, and there is only what you can do, for yourself and for the human race.

The continuation of the human race is not controlled by the strength of a single person, we need all of us to work together, everyone must work hard to complete their own responsibilities, their own obligations, Shinong industry and commerce have their own strengths, and each must do their best, in order to let our human race be developed, to be continued.

But the continuation of the race cannot always depend on a certain part of the people, on a certain part of the people to resist all the pressure of foreign races for us, by them to carry the burden for us, and we live in peace under their protection.

When one day we rely on mountains and mountains and rely on water to dry, who else can we rely on? If we can do our part, even if it is only a small obstacle under our feet, for those who are carrying the weight for us, then he may take us further and give us more time to grow.

The wisdom of the youth is the wisdom of the human race, the wealth of the youth is the wealth of the human race, the strength of the youth is the strength of the human race, the independence of the youth is the independence of the human race, the freedom of the youth is the freedom of the human race, the progress of the youth is the progress of the human race, and the male of the youth is in Zhongzhou.

The red sun is rising, and its path is bright. The river flows out of the subterranean flow, and the ocean is poured out. The hidden dragon soars into the abyss, and the scales and claws are flying. The milk tiger roars in the valley, and the beasts are terrified. The falcon tried its wings, and the wind and dust were blowing. The first child of a strange flower, the emperor. The cadres will be hairy, and there will be a man. The sky wears its blue, and the earth wears its yellow. Through the ages, there are eight wildernesses. The future is like the sea, and the future is long. Beautiful, my young people, and the sky is not old! I am a young man of the human race, and the clan has no borders! (Note 2)

I don't know why, Zhang Fan said this, the corners of his eyes suddenly moistened again, he slowly turned around, turned his back to everyone and said: "Today's first lesson ends here, tomorrow will start to gather here every day, and it will end at the end of the hour, no matter how windy or rainy, it will be disbanded now." After speaking, Zhang Fan floated away.

Today's lecture reminded him of the memories of the past, the memories are very good, when the rooster crowed, he was picked up from the bed by his father to start practicing martial arts, and after breakfast, he began to learn poetry and etiquette, and in the afternoon there was agricultural fishing, and there was a daytime quiz exam in the evening, and it was difficult for him to have time to rest in a day. At that time, I was so busy studying every day, I wanted to hit my head on the ground, I didn't want to get up every day, and every time I was beaten by my father, and now I think about those days, and I am only full of memories.

It's a memory, but it's heavy, heavy, so that I can remember it for a lifetime.
