Volume 1: Reading is not Confucian sour Chapter 100 Confucian "Changping."
That man looked ordinary, not as handsome and handsome as Ji He or Gu Qingrang. His clothes were nothing more than a gray robe and gray clothes, pure monochrome, without the sign of Xinzhai or other forces.
Could it be that in addition to Yue Wanfeng, there are other loose cultivators or rangers who have entered Xinzhai to participate in the martial arts examination? Yes, of course, there are, but they don't have the strength and reputation of Yue Wanfeng. If it doesn't attract attention, it means that it doesn't. But even Ying Tianchang, who stepped into the half-immortal, couldn't perceive the breath, and he didn't think it was an ordinary person, and the extraordinary person that Ying Tianchang understood was the top ten characters in the Xinzhai or the two courts.
It's just that the man didn't look hostile to him, so Ying Tianchang didn't let Baozi detect him.
But because of this, it seems that Ying Tianchang is extremely vigilant against people.
Ying Tianchang had a feeling that if he asked Baozi to detect him, he would expose some things about Baozi, such as the reincarnation of gluttony.
Ying Tianchang suddenly missed this feeling, and after meeting Chen Lin'an, he didn't let himself be so cautious.
In the past, when they were with rotten oranges, fear accompanied them like breathing, and walking on thin ice was their daily routine. Even after the rotten orange died, Ying Tianchang, who picked up the cultivation again, did not think that he was the immortal on the mountain, but was more careful, for fear that those true immortals who also had the power of cultivation would fall in front of his eyes, and then easily take his own life.
Therefore, Ying Tianchang's cultivation was extremely serious and hardworking, but he almost never made a move, and he put on a layer of protection for himself as an ordinary boy who escaped from the wilderness.
As for Ying Tianchang, who had already had a good cultivation before he met Chen Lin'an, he didn't know what his strength was, let alone the common sense foundation on any cultivation path.
Fortunately, I picked up a small black dog bun with a lot of origin, otherwise it would be difficult for Ying Tianchang to survive that time.
It's not that Ying Tianchang hasn't encountered those tribulations that endanger life and death, on the contrary, there are still a lot, if it weren't for the gluttonous reincarnated buns devouring it with magical powers that ordinary monks can't detect, he would have died a long time ago.
Ying Tianchang didn't know, because the old drunkard, the old bookworm, and the old bald head secretly changed his life and luck, and he would inevitably have ups and downs in his life, and fortune and misfortune depended on each other.
"There's no need to be so defensive about me. ”
Before Ying Tianchang could prepare, the man was the first to speak. He said: "I am also a student of Xinzhai, we are classmates, and I am your senior brother. ”
This is the first time Ying Tianchang has heard a student say this kind of thing, the reason is very simple, because Ying Tianchang is the disciple of Zhang Yuanchun, the master of Xinzhai, and Chen Lin'an, Xu Lu, and Li Qinglian are Ying Tianchang's real senior brothers, even if this so-called senior brother is a polite name between Xinzhai's classmates, ordinary students dare not climb this relationship.
Even Luo Qingfeng, who had already been an official outside, didn't dare to let Ying Tianchang call himself a senior brother at the first time. Although they all knew that whether it was Zhang Yuanchun or Chen Lin'an, Xu Lu, and Li Qinglian, they would not care about such trivial things, but ordinary students were not afraid of 10,000, they were afraid of what happened, and they were afraid that they would care, so they were extremely concerned.
So Ying Tianchang showed a smile, he didn't hate this man's character, and at the same time, he also knew that if a man was not really like this, he would rely on his strong strength.
And obviously, this man who claims to be his fellow classmate is both.
"Senior brother, why haven't I seen senior brother in Xinzhai?" asked Ying Tianchang. Even if the other party has already said that he is his classmate and a student of Xinzhai, Ying Tianchang's defense has not been let go at all.
"There are so many students in Xinzhai, are you done seeing them one by one?" the other party asked rhetorically, but still told Ying Tianchang his name.
"My surname is Chang, contentment and happiness are often the impermanence of the world, a single name is a flat word, and I am peaceful and plain. Usual, usual, usual, usual. ”
"My name is Ying Tianchang. Ying Tianchang didn't introduce himself as much as Chang Ping, just five simple words. Ying Tianchang looked at Chang Ping, he had never heard Chang Ping's name. But since Ying Tianchang couldn't detect his qi, Ying Tianchang knew that this person was very strong, and even put pressure on himself no less than ten seats in Xinzhai. And this is what Ying Tianchang is particularly concerned about, he has been fasting for so long, but this is the first time he has heard Chang Ping's name.
Is there still a person who hides the dragon and crouches the tiger in Xinzhai?
Ying Tianchang remembered a person mentioned by Gu Qingrang, but he didn't believe it very much.
"I know your name is Ying Tianchang. Chang Ping put away his smile, his expression was flat and normal, and said: "I am a student of Xinzhai, even if I am only released now, I am eligible to participate in the martial arts examination." You don't have to worry about the martial arts order in your arms, don't worry, I won't rob you of the martial arts order, the martial arts meeting in the back, it's interesting to have you. ”
Ying Tianchang was confused, who or what kind of strength had this classmate ever been locked up by? Although Ying Tianchang had questions, he didn't ask, and he didn't plan to ask.
"I want to see who can become the fourth disciple of Old Master Zhang, and become the junior disciple of Mr. Chen, Mr. Xu, and Mr. Li. Chang Ping said a sentence that Ying Tianchang had heard countless words.
"Probably disappointed you. Ying Tianchang said. When he said this, the boy didn't feel too much, and now he has slowly accepted the identity of Mr. Shinsai Four, and also accepted the pressure and weight it brings. The only thing that Ying Tianchang can't accept is that he is too weak, and he can't bear those responsibilities and weights now.
"There was no disappointment. Chang Ping said that he walked up to Ying Tianchang, turned around, and stood side by side with Ying Tianchang.
Chang Ping's gaze stretched along the blue surface of the island and Tianqi Lake to an unknown distance, and the lake was coming, in the distance where there was nothing but the lake, Chang Ping seemed to be able to see things that ordinary people could not see, some real things.
"I have a question for Mr. Four. Chang Ping said suddenly.
Ying Tianchang said: "I may not be able to teach you anything. ”
Ying Tianchang was a little confused, even he himself knew nothing about the world, and he didn't know any big truths, how could he teach others. Ying Tianchang learned the four words "Misleading People's Children" from the old bookworm, and he didn't want to affect anyone's opinion of this world, just like he couldn't bear the weight of life now, Ying Tianchang felt that this was a little more important than life.
Chang Ping seemed to understand Ying Tianchang's concern, he grinned and said, "There's no need to think so complicated, I just want to hear your thoughts, there's no need to think too much, just look at what you say." ”
Ying Tianchang scratched his head.
Chang Ping said: "But there is a big truth, and no one can grasp any big truth, and everyone can grasp the truth." Things in the world are complicated, and people's hearts are also complicated, and it is true that it is not possible to tell the right or wrong words, but we can still do it without the wrong words. ”
Ying Tianchang thought about it, didn't speak, and he couldn't say anything. This kind of seemingly reasonable words are not something he can say now.
Chang Ping asked: "What if everyone in the world says that you are wrong, but you admit that you are not wrong?"
Ying Tianchang turned his head to look at Chang Ping and said, "Did you do anything wrong?"
'Nope. Chang Pingping replied.
"If there isn't, what's wrong?" Ying Tianchang asked rhetorically.
"Why?" Chang Ping thought of countless words to ask Ying Tianchang, for this matter, he was deeply distressed, but in the end there were only two words, not a long speech.
Ying Tianchang said: "You know the truth and morality, know right and wrong, know right and wrong, since you think you are not wrong, that is no mistake, others, even if it is a husband and master, family and friends can not tell you half a word of right and wrong." Because this is only useful if you say it. The old bookworm once said that morality in the Tao is always just to restrain oneself and make oneself enlightened, not to bind the ropes of others. ”
"Then why does the world say we are wrong?" Chang Ping asked again.
"Because of the rules. Rules and laws are what are used to bind others, to each of us. I once read a sentence in a book, Confucianism uses literature to violate the law, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate the ban. When the emperor was a high-ranking official, he hated them deeply, but are all Confucian scholars bad, and are knights all wicked? Naturally, no, it is the thorn in their side that they break the rules. Ying Tianchang squatted down, he was a little tired from standing, and saying these things made him feel even more tired.
"As far as you can see, is it right or wrong?"
Ying Tianchang sighed, he felt that this person was more brainless than himself, and said, "Didn't you say it before, no, that is, there is no mistake in your mouth." ”
Ying Tianchang looked at Chang Ping as if he wanted to ask something, and added: "Can you say that the rules and laws are all right? Can you say that everyone in the world looks at everything from a fair perspective? Even so, back to the original question, the rules and laws are wrong, others say you are wrong, we are wrong?"
Chang Ping's words were swallowed by Ying Tianchang after his words. Chang Ping also turned his head to look at Ying Tianchang. "There is no such thing as a fallacious reason?" he said.
Ying Tianchang scratched his head, then nodded.
Chang Ping smiled, he was really a crazy person like himself.
Chang Ping asked: "I feel uncomfortable, what should Mr. do?" This time, he added the word sir.
"Why can't you make it comfortable if it's uncomfortable, what is it that people live for a lifetime, not for comfort?" Ying Tianchang scratched his head, he felt that he had never scratched his head so many times in his life, and his hair was about to be scratched off in order to come up with words to answer Chang Ping.
"Of course, except for the people you care about who make you feel uncomfortable, for their sake, these discomforts can be kept. Ying Tianchang added another sentence, and when he said this, he thought of the old drunkard, the old bookworm, the old bald head, and the senior brothers Chen Yi, Xu Er, and Li San. When he said to the end, he thought of a girl with a white cat in her arms, her brows rarely furrowed, light and peaceful, but she hid countless living people who did not enter. Ying Tianchang said: "Sometimes because the people you care about make you feel uncomfortable, in fact, if you slow down, you will find that these discomforts are actually very comfortable and sweet." Bitter tea enters the throat, and the aftertaste is sweet. ”
Chang Ping didn't continue to ask questions, he was very satisfied, this conversation he heard two words "Confucian" and "Confucian" who violated the law with martial arts, "Confucian" Chang Ping, it seemed to be very good.
