Chapter 109: Meng Bai, since you are already here, then you must be careful
Perhaps because of the word "Confucianism", this restaurant is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and is built in a place with dense mountains and forests and blue lakes. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
And if that's all there is, this hotel wouldn't be famous. More importantly, the name of the mountain where this restaurant is located, Xunyou Mountain.
The reason why this mountain is famous is not because of its vastness, but because of the story of the story. In the romance novels read by almost all girls in the Great Qi Kingdom, half of the poignant love affair between humans and demons comes from this place.
Although there are a lot of suspicions of artificial propaganda in these stories, there are indeed many innocent girls and boys who believe in such stories. Therefore, the Confucian restaurant here is also covered with a layer of scholar and goblin temperament.
However, there are many risks in the Demon Hunting Mountain, and under normal circumstances, people who do not have some skills will not easily enter it. As for the Ruyin Hotel in the center of the Demon Hunting Mountain Range, Shuiyue Lake. It took a lot of effort to do this.
At the entrance of the Demon Hunting Mountain, they opened an outer building. If you want to eat and drink in a normal way, you can also choose this place, but if you enjoy the top service of Ruyin Hotel, someone will follow their pre-opened and safe route to Shuiyue Lake.
Of course, this security is also only relative. So the guards they sent were not vegetarians, and something like this had happened before, and there was an old customer who was familiar with this route. I went to Shuiyue Lake alone to enjoy the scenery, but until now...... There was still no news.
However, if you go to Shuiyue Lake, there is generally no danger. Because there are many Confucian masters, they have already opened up a safe area with their "words and swords". What's more, there are top Confucian masters guarding here, which is even more foolproof. In particular, there will be some delightful and cute monsters here to increase the atmosphere.
This shows how high the cost is here. But...... The prices here are a bit strange. Treating ordinary people, it is naturally a shocking price. But for talented poor Confucian children, all expenses are often waived.
Many Confucian children do not regard this place as just a restaurant, as if it were their own home. I want to be a academy, or a sect. Naturally, there will be great sponsorship from Confucian masters, so there will not be a situation where you can't make ends meet.
And Meng Bai, Su Xiaoyou, Jing Hezheng and the three of them are sitting here, looking at the beautiful scenery next to them, drinking the unique tea of the Confucian Restaurant. There were also people playing flutes and Chang Xiao beside him.
It's just that the people who play the flute here are often not the service staff here. It is some authentic Confucian students, who have learned musical instruments since they were children, either for the sake of cultivating their minds and cultivating their nature, or for comparison. In short, the people who can come here are generally not ordinary people. Naturally, there will be no unpleasant music. Around you can often see young men and women sitting on the grass playing chess, sitting freely on the grass, not sticking to the form.
It's like a paradise. Everyone who comes will feel a sense of peace from the bottom of their hearts.
"Meng Bai, so you are the principal of Qingchuan?" Jing Hezheng also learned from the people around him, took a sip of tea, and asked Meng Bai.
When Meng Bai was thinking about whether to answer Jing Hezheng truthfully as a fool, and the consequences of answering this fool. Jing Hezheng scratched his head again and said to himself, "Then you still dare to come here? I heard that the imperial examination system of the Great Qi State was not abolished because of you?"
Suddenly, Jing Hezheng found that his voice was a little louder. After all, this is one of the strongholds of Confucianism. looked at the people around him worriedly, but he didn't expect a neatly dressed Confucian student to come over.
"It turns out that you are Meng Bai. This Confucian walked up to Meng Bai and said to Meng Bai.
The atmosphere instantly froze a little, and even Su Xiaoyou's hand touched the pair of daggers on his waist. And Jing He was staring at the comer, and there was a tendency to start fighting immediately.
Because after all, Meng Bai ruined the path to becoming an official and becoming a knight for thousands of people who worked hard to read articles, although Confucianism has always refused to recognize those people as Confucians. But when I broke my leg, I still had tendons. To say that Confucianism has nothing to do with Confucianism without martial arts. I'm afraid no one will believe it.
What's more, for so many years, the Confucian Sect itself has not done anything to them. Suddenly, an outsider purged them. Isn't it a bit too much?
So no matter how Su Xiaoyou and Jing Hezheng looked at the personable Confucian in front of them, they were a little ill-intentioned, and they hid the taste of knives in their smiles.
Meng Bai glanced up at the Confucian student, and then put down the tea in his hand. Picking up the roasted fish on the carved wooden table, he asked while eating, "Well, are you here to thank me for helping you get rid of these tumors?"
Confucian Sheng was a little surprised, he didn't expect Meng Bai to react like this. It's as if he doesn't care that he's going to have a sudden attack. I had a little more admiration for Meng Bai in my heart.
In fact, Meng Bai's idea is very simple, if the person in front of him is a pedantic Confucian student, or a Confucian student who is not friendly to him, he must use their profound literary skills to scold him at the beginning. But no. Even if he hides a knife in his smile, there is no need to worry about him as soon as he comes up.
"Haha, I didn't expect Meng Bai to be as interesting as rumored. After the Confucian scholar said in praise. He sat down without any hesitation, faced Meng Bai and said, "But if my fellow disciples hear it, I guess I will have to compete with you." ”
These words made Su Xiaoyou and Jing He face each other head-on. I don't know what the situation is now.
Su Xiaoyou slapped the table with both hands, attracting the attention of this Confucian student. "Wait, you shouldn't be because of the abolition of the imperial examination system. And find Meng Bai trouble or something?"
"Although there are quite a few of us Confucians who want to teach him a lesson. But we also have many people who are very grateful to Meng Shaoxia for what he did this time. ”
Looking at Su Xiaoyou and Jing Hezheng, who were staring at each other with big eyes, this Confucian shook his head upside down. In a soothing tone, he talked about the reason, "In fact, in the earliest days, the essence of our Confucianism should not be to serve as an official. Kong Sheng has said that teaching students according to their aptitude is not suitable for everyone. Therefore, the texts he left behind are often used to teach a person the character that he should have. There are even places that, as it now seems, are fallacious. ”
I heard that a Confucian disciple actually had such a novel idea. Su Xiaoyou and Jing Hezheng both quieted down and listened attentively.
However, the king of the day took a fancy to this. So he wanted to increase the imperial power. Educating the people will raise the status of our Confucianism. Even the imperial examination system was gradually perfected. But in fact, in terms of serving as an official and engaging in politics, we are not as good as many schools of thought, such as Legalism. In particular, there is a specialization in the art industry, and in the military, we cannot compare with the soldiers. But gradually, we have almost monopolized all the ways in which we can become officials. ”
Speaking of this, this Confucian disciple sighed. As if to get to something irritating. But there were some other Confucian disciples around who listened to his words and gradually left the place. It seems that it is not this Confucian who is enlightened, but that he is a wonderful flower among Confucianism. A strange thing to be in this group, but not to fight for more interests for this group.
"If we really let pure Confucian scholars become officials, to be honest, I don't have any opinion. Because at that time, there were still many of us who were very noble in character. Compare it to the educated. Even if we don't know so many things, we can go and learn. Go to the Legalist to learn the law, and go to the soldier to learn strategies such as using soldiers to fight. But among us, there is a ...... People who don't know what to say. ”
Su Xiaoyou nodded thoughtfully, patted Confucian on the shoulder and said, "Actually, I think you are also a person who doesn't know what to say." Aren't you really afraid that other Confucian scholars will beat you?"
"Actually, I grew up and I don't know how many times I was beaten. As if self-deprecating, the Confucian said, "But until I found the real Confucian." Everything is much better, you must know that I almost gave up on Confucianism. Later, I realized that it was not "Confucianism" that was wrong. It's that those people's "Confucianism" is wrong. ”
Their thinking gradually became extreme, and even proposed that everything is inferior, only reading is high. Look down on everyone except scholars. I no longer get the truth and understanding from the book. Gradually, they turn to memorization, or write useless essays according to a certain stereotyped structure. They don't understand that what they are reciting now is actually teaching them what kind of virtue they should have?"
"On the surface, they pretend to be righteous men and gentlemen, but their purpose is only to be officials. has no morality, no character, no one asks about the cold window for ten years, and he becomes famous all over the world in one fell swoop. It sounds great, but they wasted ten years just to be a stereotypical official. I didn't think about what I did, what I could do for others, or whether my books were useful. ”
When Meng Bai heard this, he finally put down the charcoal-roasted leg of mutton in his hand and said to Confucius: "Young man, in fact, I think you are already dung. ”
"What, angry youth, that's a good word, I'm just angry. I didn't understand how we Confucians could have such scum, until I found out that there were still people like me in this world. This is the real Confucianism. When we practiced Confucianism, we also practiced martial arts. With his own pen and ink, he depicts the world. Our poetry may not make us famous, but this is "Confucianism". There has never been a useless scholar, but the scholar described in this sentence is not our real Confucian student. ”
Meng Bai took over and said admirably, "Well, although you are dung. But I like the of you. ”
But in my heart, I was thinking, fortunately, I didn't bring Zhou Yu's kid over. It is better to take such a situation, Zhou Yu will definitely rekindle his hope for Confucianism.
After this Confucian scholar finished his stinky and long speech, he stood up and was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered something. Turning his head to Meng Bai, he said, "By the way, I didn't expect you to really dare to come." Although we real Confucians do not recognize the "fake Confucianism" who study to the death, there are many people who also think that you should not interfere in this matter. They are thinking about how to fix you, since you are here, tonight's Tanabata poetry meeting, you must be careful. ”
