Chapter 294: Helpless and at a loss
Shang was rescued.
and was exempted from the penalty of murder.
But what happened to him, how to spend it?
The Xia Dynasty is indeed very prosperous now, but no matter how prosperous the country is, it does not mean that there are no unsightly things in the shadows.
The courage of the general trend does not mean that personal misfortune can be avoided.
Unfortunately, he's the unlucky one.
After being rescued, Shang Fei worked hard and returned to his home in his memory.
But there was no one at home, only a lonely dusty yard.
His parents had sold their possessions in search of him, and had traveled far and wide in the hope of finding him.
So the rescued merchant joins a caravan to earn money, and also searches for his biological parents.
He had indeed found the whereabouts of his parents, as long as he had followed in the footsteps of his parents.
But his parents are dead, because they really found the original human teeth, and such a person would dare to kill people.
Even if the human tooth has been removed later because of the murder, what will happen to the dead?
Shang Ju was at a loss.
He didn't even have a home of his own.
After thinking about it, Shang originally wanted to join the Mo family.
As a result, after inquiring, I learned that the real Mojia giants had left with a large number of Mo, and it was now the era of Confucianism.
Confucianist?
What's that?
Compared to the Mohists who often mentioned to him when he was a young child, he really didn't know anything about Confucianism.
Fortunately, he is very hardworking and intelligent.
He used the money he earned to feed himself and then searched for books.
There would often be Confucian scholars, and he would come over, and if he was lucky, he would be able to get almsgiving porridge.
The Xia Dynasty was rich, as long as he was willing to work, he would not starve to death no matter what.
Because of the relationship with the bottom, Shang has his own set of logic, and he has a particularly deep understanding of the people at the bottom.
So much so that after hearing the news that Xun Ke was going to preach, he sold everything and embarked on the road to the imperial capital, so that he had a question in the Tianxia School Palace.
"It's no wonder this kid is so extreme."
After listening to Shang's life experience and experience, Gu Dan was thoughtful.
What happened to him when he was a child gave Shang the deepest understanding of the evil of people, and he himself was the biggest victim.
And the experience in the mountain village made him suffer a lot, and when he calmed down and thought about all this, he was naturally not interested in the messy things of benevolence, righteousness, and propriety.
The Mohist family is not in the past, and Confucianism does not meet his appetite, so he will come up with a new concept by himself.
He extremely agrees with Xun Ke's "evil of human nature", but he scoffs at the matter of education.
Because he has been a commodity for a long time, where is the "person"?
In that small mountain village, if there is no sudden visit from the ink man, where can we find benevolence, righteousness, and courtesy?
Under the circumstances, how could an eleven-year-old save his fate?
There is no way.
No matter how wise he is, he is destined to have no time for liberation.
He put his most desperate experience in the whole world, and finally made up his mind and turned it into four words: struggle and strength.
It doesn't matter whether the weak are pitiful or not, miserable or not, and only the strong can win.
Although he himself was rescued by the Ink Man, for the people of that small mountain village, how could the Mo Man not be a strong man?
The strong and the weak attack each other, naturally the strong wins, and how to fall after that depends on the thought of the strong.
So, he gave birth to his own ideas, and in the Tianxia School Palace, he questioned Xun Ke.
In his opinion, benevolence, righteousness and etiquette are just fig leafs, and those people are not worthy of it at all, and they are completely incomprehensible, so they should be punished with the law.
It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you will understand it after the pain, and if you don't understand it, then you will find another opportunity in the next life.
"I've heard: oranges are oranges in Huainan, and oranges in Huaibei are oranges."
Under the darkness of the night, Gu Dan leaned on the willow tree behind him and said slowly: "Shang knows the bitterness of citrus, so he doesn't believe in the sweetness and sourness of oranges." ”
"That's true."
Xun Ke also nodded.
Shang is naturally talented, but this talent is a bit too extreme.
The misfortune that happened to the individual is irreparable, but if the misfortune of the individual is put in the world, then why is it not the misfortune of the world?
At the beginning, under the stars in Yuzhou at night, Xun Ke's parents in Yuzhou were killed by the red-eyed warrior, and he didn't hate the warriors all over the world because of this!
was also rescued by the ink man, and his parents were also killed, Xun Ke still has benevolence and great love, while Shang has become ruthless and no longer trusts everyone.
The Fa is just a tool, but he wants to put the tool firmly on everyone's head, and everything works according to the tool.
This is where the root of his extremes lies.
"Then I'll leave you in trouble."
Gu Dan picked up the teacup, blew it gently, and drank it all.
Xun Ke's ability and Gu Dan are naturally recognized.
Under his hands, it is enough to reshape business, and the future may not be glorious.
Although today's Shang has experienced the world, it is like a sword that has just been unsheathed, and the edge is very sharp, and it does not see half of the convergence, and it needs to be re-polished and baptized.
But in the affairs of the Xia Dynasty, Gu Dan has paid little attention.
The Xia Dynasty is still becoming stronger, and in the future that can be seen with the naked eye, Xun Ke will also be the new guardian of the Xia Dynasty and lead the Xia Dynasty to continue to be strong.
He has fulfilled his promise.
Now, only a few people are left as companions.
There aren't many days left.
As night came, the courtyard gradually became quiet.
Gu Dan didn't pick up the book again to read, because of the Xia Dynasty, he had already read all the books on cultivation.
The white lotus visualization is still being practiced every day, but the fifth petal lotus has not moved at all.
Even his physical body seems to have reached a bottleneck after years of baptism, and Gu Dan has not felt himself enter the realm for a long time in recent years.
He seems to have reached the pinnacle of the earthly world in a real sense, whether it is the physical body, true qi, or even the divine soul, they have all reached the limit of the mortal world, and the path of martial arts seems to have stopped here, and he can no longer take a step forward.
The night was deep, but the spirit was still uplifting, and I couldn't sleep left and right.
After thinking about it, his mind moved, and Gu Dan exhaled the panel.
[Shouyuan: 106/299 (+237586)]
[Aoki Chemistry Recipe: 50067/1000000 (+237586) So-so]
The familiar panel unfolded before his eyes, and nothing had changed except for the changes in the numbers themselves.
It is worth mentioning that his own longevity age has broken 100 years old, and according to the algorithm of this era, he can be called a human being.
But because of the upper limit of longevity, he has actually only just reached the level of one-third of his life, even if he goes on normally and reduces this age proportionally, he can be called "young".
It is particularly worth noting that the upper limit of his longevity has been stuck for a full thirty-seven years.
When he was just promoted to Grandmaster, Shou Yuan was only ninety-five years old, far less than the limit of one hundred and twenty years old for Grandmaster, but with the steady improvement of his strength, the upper limit of Shou Yuan was also rising.
It can be seen that Shou Yuan does not reach the limit at the moment of breakthrough, but with the influence of strength, it slowly increases until that limit is.
Although the upper limit of Shouyuan is actually just a number for Gu Dan, it is enough to roughly assess his own strength through this number.
But now, that hand seems to be ineffective.
The upper limit of his longevity is firmly stuck at the number 299, and he cannot advance an inch, and he reaches the limit before his strength.
Even if in the past thirty-seven years, the White Lotus Visualization has made a breakthrough, the Divine Soul has been gained, and the physical body has been achieved again, there is still no change in the upper limit of the longevity yuan.
Everything probably has its limits.
Considering the burden, he should have reached the limit of the Great Grandmaster by now, the limit that cannot be surpassed.
As for Shou Yuan, who will break through Aoki's reincarnation recipe next time. A glance at that number shows that it is simply unrealistic to save by relying on oneself to treat diseases and save people.
It must be a real act of hanging the pot to help the world, so that it is possible to bring him great progress in one breath.
The problem is that, according to Qing Pingzi, sooner or later the immortals will return.
It's been so long since the immortal stones have been smashed, why is it that until now, except for a Buzhou Mountain Range, there is still no news from the real immortals?
Gu Dan couldn't figure it out.
The porcelain didn't collide with the tiles, and he couldn't take that risk.
As a person who has already reached the realm of the ultimate thirst of the Immortal Dao while alive, Gu Dan does not need to be a gambler.
Shouyuan accumulates, a little slower, and it is important to live.
And now, the medical halls in various places within the Xia Dynasty have been effective, and they can bring him a lot of longevity every year, after all, as the leader of the compilation of the "Shennong Baicao Sutra" and the direct initiation of this matter, Gu Dan's contribution is undoubtedly not small.
With this income, the accumulation of Shouyuan cannot be said to be slow, it is nothing more than waiting for a few more years.
What really makes Gu Dan a little uncomfortable is that his strength has reached the point where he has nowhere to go.
If you continue to stay in the Grand Master, there is no room for continued growth.
But regarding the innate realm of martial arts, so far, Gu Dan still doesn't know enough deeply, and he hasn't found a way from any classics.
And all the attempts in the world ended in failure, and even the grandmaster died several times.
Even if he is as calm as a burden, he now feels a trace of irritability.
He has been a great master for 60 years, and he has no way to advance, so why hasn't he felt the feeling of 'water overflowing'?
He originally wanted to let himself reach the limit of the current realm and go with the flow to impact the innate realm, but now he is really at the limit, but he has not broken through the half sign of the innate realm.
This is completely different from what is recorded in the classics of cultivating immortals, according to the classics, when the realm of the immortal path reaches its limit, it will produce a special induction, urging it to be promoted quickly.
The method of the Immortal Dao is different from the Martial Dao.
Now that he continues to stay in the Xia Dynasty, he can't even concentrate on cultivation, because there is no way to cultivate.
As for how to successfully reach the next realm, it is somewhat too much to describe it as clueless, and it can only be said that it is at a loss.
As the first great master in this world, the person with the highest and strongest martial arts entry, he can't even find someone to refer to, he himself has become a monument to future generations, only future generations refer to his truth, and there is no possibility for him to refer to others.
The matter has come to this point, and Gu Cheng has the intention of leaving.
That day, for him, I am afraid that it is not far away.
In the sixty-first year of the Xia Dynasty, Cang returned to the imperial capital, and he was promoted.
He will take over Xun Ke's former position, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
So Cang returned to the Gu family's courtyard and implicitly said that he also wanted to move in.
Gu Dan was very happy and told him to get out of here.
In desperation, Cang could only rent a few houses not far from the Gu family's small courtyard to accommodate his hundred-room wives and concubines.
But it can't be said that his arrival is all to smear Gu Dan's face, at least when Xiao Ying feels bored taking care of flowers and plants in the Gu family's courtyard, she can go to Cang's side to chat with his wives and concubines to relieve her boredom.
There are so many wives and concubines, and the chat can't be finished, and I can always find a few like-minded people, barely doing a little insignificant human affairs.
In the sixty-fourth year of the Xia Dynasty, Confucianism was already adjusting and dividing the law.
The leader of this matter is naturally Xun Ke.
And the other person is a businessman who has emerged in the Tianxia Academy.
He was not only accepted as an apprentice by Xun Ke, but also appreciated by Emperor Chengping, who is said to have grabbed his hand and talked at night in the palace.
But Gu Dan paid little attention to these things, and he almost faded out of everyone's sight.
The great master who used to guard the Xia Dynasty has been replaced.
There are talented people from generation to generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years.
He is over 100 years old, belongs to his time, and it is time for him to pass it on to the next generation.
The sixty-fifth year of the Xia Dynasty was an ordinary day.
Xun Ke was busy and took the time to go back to the Gu family's courtyard to eat.
The meal is now made by Cang's wife and concubine, and every day when the meal arrives, the best one among them will come over in advance and cook for a few people.
Xiao Ying is now left to take care of the flowers and plants in the yard - in addition to this, she has also found time to compile two medical books herself.
The medical skills in it are not some exquisite and ingenious techniques, but the most ordinary things such as how to deliver a baby, how to raise a child, etc., and even have fine pictures to facilitate future generations to learn and understand.
Of course, this kind of medical book is passed on to women and not to men.
Xiaoying asked Gu Dan to review it, and Gu Dan gave a high evaluation.
At this time, after simply eating in the Gu family's courtyard and chatting casually, Xun Ke was leaving.
But Gu Dan stretched out a hand and grabbed him.
"Mr. Gu?"
Xun Ke was puzzled.
"Stay here, don't go anywhere."
Gu Dan stared into his eyes and said almost word for word.
"Me"
Xun Ke wanted to say that he still had a lot of things to do, and he was rectifying the laws of the Xia Dynasty.
But Gu Dan's eyes had already looked at Xiao Ying, who was carrying the dishes and going to the kitchen to clean.
Following his gaze, Xun Ke seemed to understand something for a moment.
He was struck by lightning, and his whole body froze in place, his lips buzzed, and he couldn't say a word.
A thousand words are clogged in my heart, and the grand master is already at a loss.
