In the small courtyard of the Gu family, it is plain and bland, spring goes and autumn comes.

The scorching heat of summer seems to have just passed, and the bleak autumn wind has already sprinkled the world.

Countless people on the earth are busy on such days, and the increasingly fierce war must be slightly slowed down at this time.

The people live on food, and no one can really dig the grain, and they will starve to death if they don't have food to eat.

From princes and generals to ordinary people, they all know the importance of this season.

But this year is not destined to have a good harvest, and this is the case for the whole world of the big moon.

Yuzhou, which should have produced the most grain, has fallen into the flames of war that has lasted for more than a year, and the members of the White Lotus Sect are still fighting and tugging with the people and horses of the court.

Although the White Lotus Sect has faintly begun to look a little irresistible, and has begun to retreat slightly, the land of Yuzhou is vast and vast, so it is like this, and it will not be able to pay it off in another three or five years.

As for the Huang Dynasty and the Huang Tianjun, they have always insisted on implementing the appearance of a group of powerful bandits, and it is true that they rob the poor less, and the big ones really don't let go of anyone!

Even those blood relatives within three generations of those big families who were identified were all slaughtered without being left, and the killing machine went straight to the sky.

However, Yangzhou is sandwiched between Yuzhou and Yuzhou, and those rich families living in Yangzhou can be described as unlucky.

Running south and hitting the Four-Nation Alliance, you will definitely die!

Running north, they met the White Lotus Sect, and life was better than death.

Stay where you are and don't run, and Huang Chao is here, and the whole family is killed!

The dilemma plus sitting on pins and needles is the mood of those who stay in Yangzhou.

Of course, if they are really willing to scatter their wealth and join the Huang Tianjun, Huang Chao is not unable to open the net.

Only those who resist stubbornly, or even spend money to recruit troops to fund the court or try to resist, will be so ruthless.

Unfortunately, almost all the big families refused to bow to him.

Then there's not much to say.

Kill!

In the two years that he was hunted down by the imperial court, the number of Huang Tianjun not only did not decrease, but increased.

Even the naked eye can know that more people will join them soon.

Because most of Yushu has been lost!

From the 37th year of Zongming to the autumn of the 2nd year of Kangjing, it took a full three years for the Four-Nation Alliance to capture Yuzhou.

This kind of speed, whether compared with the Huang Dynasty or the White Lotus Sect Master, seems to be very uncompromising.

Actually, it can't be counted like that.

The Four-Nation Coalition came for the slaughter, and even slaughtered several cities in a row as soon as they entered Yushu, although its original intention was to warn the subsequent cities to give up resistance, and if they did not resist, they would not slaughter the city.

But before they could shout these words, Moqiu took the three thousand inkers and directly slaughtered the culprit.

They were supposed to be the one who should be pressurized, but they became the one who was pressured!

This incident has achieved the reputation of the saint of Moqiu, and at the same time, it has also aroused the common hatred of the people of Yuzhou!

Because defeat is death!

And no matter how much the Yellow Dynasty and the White Lotus Sect Leader made waves, they mostly fought against the government and coerced the people, if they had to say anything to order the people to be arrested and deliberately abused and slaughtered, it was really not, at most it was only forced to death.

Ordinary people can join them with hoes and become a part of them directly.

What about the Four-Nation Alliance?

Killing, burning, and robbing it will not matter directly, and people will not accept it.

Even if someone wants to join, they can't find a way!

In this way, can the people fight with them?

That's not all, the Mo Qiu who was wanted by Da Yue still took the ink man to defend the city, the key is that the Mo family really knows how to defend the city!

To be precise, when it comes to defending the city, no one will study more deeply than the Mohists in this era, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Mohists represent the highest level of defending the city at this time.

Don't think that the people of the Mo family are holding the type of "I am good to you, and I will never hurt you".

On the contrary, since the establishment of the Mohists, Moqiu has always said: the benefits of the world and the harm of the world!

For this goal, it is natural to choose the big among the benefits and the small among the harms!

Defend the city for the big, and the individual for the small.

The Mo family is definitely not only able to reason, but also raises a knife.

Once the order of the Ink Scholar to defend the city is implemented, anyone who does not obey or transgress will be personally beheaded by the Ink Scholar.

There was a friend of the Ink Painter who wanted to go to the rescue because of a fire in the city, so he left the place where he needed to guard, and was shot by the Ink Artist with a bow and arrow, even though he knew that he was kind.

This is the style of the Mohists.

Simply treating the ink as a virgin, an ascetic, and a good person is too one-sided.

This is a group of people who are not afraid of death for the sake of their ideals.

Those who are not afraid of death do not only include themselves.

Before many people became ink writers, they could not be called good people in the secular sense!

But no matter how powerful the Mo family is at defending the city, it is only defending, and if it can't be stopped, it can only be withdrawn.

Dragged the Four-Nation Alliance in Yuzhou for three years, the Mo family has made a great contribution to the world of this big moon, and the ink people who followed Moqiu's side have changed several rounds in three years, and they really can't ask for more.

In the face of an increasingly erosive situation, temples are also very difficult to manage.

The most important thing is that the first batch of money collected by Emperor Kang Jing has already been spent!

But there is no silver left in the treasury!

What to do?

Another Guilty Silver?

Emperor Kang Jing did not dare to do this.

In order to save money, Emperor Kangjing, who really couldn't find a better way, chose to give up Yuzhou for the time being, leaving some people to pursue the Huang Tianjun for the time being, and most of the remaining people to encircle and suppress the White Lotus Sect with all their might!

The price of grain in the big moon has risen to the price in the winter, and this is the time of the autumn harvest!

If Yuzhou is not pacified quickly, what shocking level can the price of grain soar after winter, I am afraid that no one will dare to give a clear word.

Since Zongming Zongming and the ancestors are unknown, another sentence has begun to circulate quietly.

Kang Jing Kang Jing, no Kang no Jing!

The internal troubles can't be calmed down, and the external worries can't be stopped, which is really disappointing.

Step by step, the situation is collapsing.

Autumn is over, and the cold winter is here again!

When the cold snowflakes begin to fall from the sky to the earth, there are not many people who can sigh that the snow is a good year.

More are hungry people shivering from the cold and showing vegetables.

Gu's small courtyard.

There were occasional cheers in the courtyard.

Xiao Ying was building a snowman in the yard, her hands and feet were red from the cold.

Xun Ke stared blankly at the sky, his eyes were stunned, and he wandered out of the sky.

He has been teaching Cang for nearly half a year.

Half a year's teaching cannot be said to have had little effect, it can only be said to be ineffective.

Except for letting Cang recognize some words, everything else is basically in vain, and it is normal for the left ear to go in and out of the right ear.

And now there is a seemingly simple puzzle in front of him.

Since we want to teach children, we can't help but talk about people.

So the question is, how to teach?

Is human nature good or evil?

Good has a good way, and evil has evil benefits.

The education that the vast majority of people in the world have received is to say that "human nature is inherently good", which is also the most acceptable statement for everyone.

But if human nature is good, why did the situation in Otsuki rot so much?

This makes no sense!

If it weren't for the endless encroachment of evil thoughts, how could this be the case?

Mo Shi once expressed his opinion, he is considered a centrist, and he still agrees with it.

[Zi Mozi sighed when he saw the silk dyeer: Dye in the blue is blue, and dye in yellow is yellow. The person who enters changes, and its color also changes, and the five must be, and it is already five colors! Therefore, dyeing must not be careless! Not only dyed silk, but also dyed. 】

To put it simply, human nature is amorphous, and what is dyed is what it is.

If you come into contact with many wicked people, you will naturally be prone to evil. Good people are naturally willing to do good. Not only people, but also the country!

Master Mo emphasized that the good and evil of human nature are not static, but may change from moment to moment.

Of course, this is a good answer, the only problem is that this answer requires a certain degree of understanding of the world, and more importantly, a relatively objective attitude towards world affairs.

But teaching a three-year-old child in the words of the ink master is inevitably too profound.

It is simply impossible for children to truly understand, not even understand, let alone use it to enlighten learning?

Others didn't know that Xun Ke was struggling with such a problem.

The conclusion of whether human nature is good or human is inherently evil is almost impossible to change, and all teaching programs must revolve around the same theme.

There is no room for compromise between good and evil.

As for the delicate gray in the middle, it is not a problem that children who have just begun to think about.

Xun Ke stretched out his hand and kept writing lines on the snow.

The advantage of the theory of sexual goodness is that it can lead to conscience, and everyone has four hearts - compassion, shame, respect, and right and wrong, which can lead to benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, and wisdom.

But people are clearly born to be profitable, born to be lustful, and born to be evil!

Otsuki's current world is the best way to say.

Simply nodding his head and acknowledging the theory of sexual goodness, when Cang grows up and really walks out of the small courtyard and sees what it is like outside, will he ask him: 'Since everyone is a good person, why did they become like this?' Human nature is inherently good, isn't it? ’

At that time, how should I tell Cang?

The initial point of view cannot be established, and all the learning after that will become a piece of waste paper, empty words.

If you can't even convince yourself, how can you dare to use this knowledge to measure the morality of the world, so that thousands of generations can learn and think from it?

This point of view may not seem worth mentioning, but it is just a choice.

In fact, the impression will be extremely far-reaching, so far-reaching that Xun Ke can't make up his mind for a long time.

In other words, I dare not draw conclusions.

Xun Ke hesitated for a long time, and suddenly remembered that Cang hadn't studied with him today.

Then he stretched out his hand to wipe the handwriting on the snow in front of him, and his eyes wandered around the yard, Xun Ke asked Xiao Ying, who was still building a snowman in the yard, "What about Cang?" Where did it go? ”

Xiao Ying was examining a big snowman she had built, and when she heard Xun Ke's inquiry, she said casually: "Cang went out with a book." ”

Xiao Ying's snowman in front of her was much taller than her, although it was made of snow, it was taken care of by a pair of skillful hands, and it vaguely looked like a care, but she was not very satisfied.

Uncle Gu is so good-looking, why can't this snow be like that?

And Uncle Gu always likes to wear a green robe, the green leaves in winter are not easy to find, if you really put a robe on the snowman, you will be beaten by your mother, right?

After all, my mother said that many people don't even have clothes to wear now, and she must also set an example and not waste them.

Really put on a robe for the snowman, and the mother can't split her?

That's not going to work!

"Cang went out with a book? What is he going to do?! ”

Xun Ke's voice suddenly rose and shouted in disbelief.

What are you kidding, that little rabbit cub is dying and alive every day when he learns words for an hour, how can he like to read?

"It seems like I'm playing with the little girl from the aunt's house next door, right? Kids, you have to find a playmate. ”

Xiao Ying was still looking at her newly made snow sculpture, ready to wait for Gu Dan to come back and surprise him, "Let's see if this snowman statue I made looks like Uncle Gu?" ”

Xun Ke glanced at it and nodded slightly, "It's indeed a bit similar." ”

"What do you mean it's kind of? Very much like good or not! It's just that the face can't be done well, and it's not as good-looking as Uncle Gu. Xiao Ying tilted her little head in thought.

"How can a dead thing be compared to a living man?"

Xun Ke said uneasily: "Why don't I go and find Cang?" I can't imagine what that little guy is going to do when he goes out with a book! ”

"Oh, how do you look like an old woman? Cang just went out to play, and he kept staying in the yard either to bring disaster to the flowers I raised, or to pestering her to tell stories, and to go out to be cleaner. Xiao Ying waved her hand impatiently.

The little kid who is just three years old is really annoying, without the cuteness that he let people fiddle with when he was a child, and has a more naughty nature, and occasionally a whim can find them some unexpected little trouble.

It's still a little short leg, but it's not idle at all, scurrying around, I really don't know where the energy comes from.

Last time, she had a whim, and she was going to take care of Canglai to appease her sudden maternal brilliance, but she was tired enough after just taking care of it for half a day.

Or did she try her best to find a playmate for Cang - the little guy went out to trouble others, don't worry about tearing down her own courtyard!

For Cang's willingness to go out to cause trouble to others, she raised her hands and feet in agreement.

However, the heavens do not fulfill people's wishes.

As soon as she finished speaking, the door of the small courtyard was pushed open.

Xiao Bu nodded and walked in, and at a glance, he fell in love with the snow sculpture that Xiao Ying had just piled up.

"Wow!"

Cang shouted excitedly, and the little short-legged Mai ran over quickly, "Sister, is this what you did?" It's so high, it's amazing! ”

"Yes! Like Uncle Gu? ”

Seeing that Cang knew how to appreciate it so well, Xiao Ying also smiled and said with some pride.

The answer to her was Cang's small black hand that suddenly slapped at the snow sculpture.

Two small black palm prints were imprinted on the pure white snow sculpture.

"Hehe, now I have a share!"

Cang shouted happily.

"Hiss~"

Seeing this scene, Xun Ke couldn't help but gasp.

How dare you?!

"!!"

There were no surprises.

A roar resounded through the sky.

When Gu Dan pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, he saw Cang Zheng lying on Xun Ke's lap, crying hoarsely.

Xiao Ying clenched her tooth crown, held a book in her hand, and hit Cang's little ass viciously.

"You two are?"

Gu Dan was surprised, how did this start to match men and women?

"Uncle Gu, come over and beat him up!"

Xiao Ying was very angry, "Such a little guy started to eat inside and out, I have to kill him today!" ”

Gu Dan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said suspiciously: "Eat inside and outside?" ”

"He took Xun Ke's book and burned it for people, saying that he wanted to help people keep warm!" Xiao Ying gritted her teeth and said.
