Volume 1 Study Tour Chapter 143 The Literati Are Empty and Eloquent
In front of the Tushi Palace, the two who had never met were chatting very warmly, and the cold-faced old man changed his old appearance, smiling and adding a cup of hot tea to the old Confucian student, and said affectionately:
"The Confucian sage will meet the Ji Mountain, the green mountains and green waters, leisurely and happy, and the envy of people, why do you want to meddle in this matter today and get involved in the quagmire of the rivers and lakes?"
The old Confucian pretended to be displeased, and replied: "What does the Taoist chief say about Confucianism, where are there people who were canonized during his lifetime, and the title of saint is added after he dies. It sounds more like a curse.
Wang Mou is just an old talent, relying on his old age, he has a little status in the literary world, and there are many people in the world who are not talented, claiming to be holy in vain, making people laugh. ”
"Mr. Wang is too modest, and the name of Confucianism is also recognized by the emperor. It's just poor or I don't know, why are you here?"
The old Confucian raised his glass, and the two took a sip of hot tea, and then the old Confucian asked rhetorically: "Why did that long come here?"
First sighed, this old Dao's face was full of sorrow, and said: "Poor Dao was greedy before, and he owed debts, if he wanted the sect to be stable, he could only work himself. ”
The old Confucian nodded, "I see, the old man is here to be a peacemaker on the orders of His Majesty."
Whether it is a sergeant or a person in the rivers and lakes, they are all people of the Han Dynasty, how can they spend their lives on this boring infighting. ”
When Lao Dao heard this, he just wanted to support his forehead, although it sounded like that at first glance, Lao Dao was sure that this person must have come from nonsense.
Isn't he already known as a saint? Why don't you even have a word of truth in your mouth?
"Sir, don't be joking, poor people come here to be sent by the emperor. ”
"There is such a thing? The old man's disciple went to Longhu Mountain to block the door, which was also His Majesty's will. ”
This is the truth, after Longhu Mountain contributed to King Yan in the battle of the ghost market that day, the little disciple of the Confucian Sage went to Jiangxi with an injury, and asked all the swordsmen in Jiangxi with a sword, and no one could beat him.
Lin Qiu, the new sword crown of the Tibetan Sword Valley, became famous in the rivers and lakes, and also achieved the emperor's goal of deterring Longhu Mountain.
Liaodong in the north balances the Yan King, the Confucian sage in the south of the Yangtze River and the King Ning contain each other, and the attainments of the balance technique of the first emperor's temple can be seen from this.
Seeing that the old Confucian was talking left and right, he just didn't get down to business, and the old man was quite helpless.
Obviously you know that the person in front of you is, but you can't start beating him? If you want to do it, I'm afraid it will be a mistake.
Waiting for an answer in the sky in real time, it's quite urgent.
Seeing that this old man had regained his cold face, the old Confucian snickered like a naughty boy, and laughed for a while before saying to the old man: "I don't want to be happy with you, the old man is here, just to visit the old man's little apprentice." ”
"Why did that gentleman target the people in the Poor Taoist Temple?"
A hint of sharpness flashed in the old Confucian student's eyes, but his tone was still gentle.
"It turned out that the person turned out to be the head of the Tao, this was really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and his family didn't know his own family. If the old man had known his identity earlier, this would not have happened. ”
Lao Dao's face improved, and when he was about to speak, he heard Confucius say: "Originally, the old man saw that this Taoist man had no words, but he lacked virtue, but now he knows that he is a noble disciple, then there should be a misunderstanding." The old man did something wrong, and he didn't dare to ask for your understanding, so I apologize to the Taoist and your superiors. ”
As he spoke, the old man arched his hand towards the old man.
When the old Taoist saw that Confucianism gave him the steps, he also got off the donkey down the slope, waved his hand, and said indifferently: "There is a Taoist proverb that blessings and misfortunes depend on them, and misfortunes and blessings lie in waiting." This poor apprentice is used to being arrogant on weekdays, and Mr. today gave him a lesson, which may not be a good thing. ”
"The Taoist is open-minded, and the old man admires it. ”
But to the surprise of the old Taoists, after some mutual praise of the Confucian saints and the Taoist leaders, Confucianism made a rather outrageous move.
The old Confucian squinted his eyes, and the corners of his mouth still hung a warm smile, but the air was covered with dark clouds, and with a move, a lightning bolt was pulled from the dark clouds and landed on the top of Longhu Mountain.
Although it was just a casual blow from the old man, it landed on the Dragon and Tiger Mountain that the old Taoist contemplated, but it caused the mountain peak to tremble, and even the suppressive power of the Dragon and Tiger Mountain was much weaker than before.
Lao Dao's face was full of anger, and when he saw it, he was about to lift the table and fight with this old showman. But seeing that he had been practicing for many years, and seeing the eager expression on the old man's face, Lao Dao instantly calmed down his emotions.
"What does Mr. mean by this? Lao Dao has the emperor's order, if Mr. wants to ask for two tricks, please also make plans after Poor Dao completes his mission. ”
Lao Dao's eyes were sharp, as if he wanted to peek into the heart of the old Confucian in one fell swoop.
Sure enough, the old rivers and lakes that have calmed down are not as easy to deal with as before. Borrowing strength is the true meaning of Tai Chi, as a Taoist figure with a head and a face, Wudang Mountain, this one has also been there.
It is indeed an excellent choice to oppress people in the temple, Confucianism sets the order for the world, and the monarch of heaven and earth is the teacher. As long as the Xiucai in front of him still admits that he is a Confucian, this is an iron rule that he cannot deny.
The old man did not go against this philosophy, and he never felt that he had violated it.
"The old man and the little apprentice once said that the children in the family are not sensible, and most of them are the result of the pampering of the elders. In our capacity, we will teach the juniors to avoid the suspicion of bullying the small. ”
Speaking of this, the old man raised his head and glanced at Lao Dao defiantly from the gap in his eyes.
"So, the best way to deal with it is to beat the old one, and then the old one goes home and beats the little one, which is what everyone is happy about. In this way, you can not only block the excuse that the old children are ignorant, but also achieve the purpose of educating the juniors. ”
The old man's response is also quite simple and practical, in a nutshell, you talk about business, and I talk about personal vendettas.
Listen, this is the countermeasure that these gentle and elegant scholars have come up with all day long, what a loss, the literati are shameless, but it is really infinitely harmful!
Angry, but Lao Dao still didn't make a move, the reason why he endured it so much is that the main problem is that he can't beat it.
This old Xiucai doesn't look good, but his true identity is a living saint in the three sects. Such a character is a celestial dragon, and it can also be killed.
"But Mr. still made a move on the poor apprentice, don't you really think that the old way is weak and can be bullied?"
"No, no, the old man didn't want to make a move on him, even if he didn't value virtue, it was the responsibility of his division commander, and it had nothing to do with the old man.
But he wanted to bring a poor apprentice to the old man, and he thought that Zixia was also bullied by him on weekdays, and the old man was angry for the apprentice, so why not?"
Until this time, the old man did not forget to squeeze this old saying.
Seeing that the old Taoist gradually showed signs of being unable to suppress his anger, the old man spoke again, "When this matter is over, the old man will naturally go to Longhu Mountain to ask for an understanding. ”
"Hmph, it's a waste of tongue!"
Originally, it was just a scene, but the old man replied quite seriously.
"If you are worried about the lack of strength, then it will be a siege, and the old man will take it over. ”
Lao Dao broke the defense in an instant, and his body escaped into the Tushi Palace, the door was closed, and he didn't seem to want to listen to the words of this old Confucian anymore.
The old man was not annoyed, he was happy, found a comfortable position, and took a nap by leaning on it.
