Chapter 9 Confucianism

Wangshan ran a dead horse, and by the time Zhao Xinming ran nearby, it was already two hours later. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info a round of full moon hanging high in the sky, under the bright moonlight, Zhao Xinming saw a few huts from afar, and the sound of reading came from afar, which only made people feel refreshed.

Zhao Xinming walked all the way over, and when he arrived at the gate of the small courtyard, he suddenly woke up, only to see a fierce tiger, two wild wolves, and a mountain bear squatting in front of the small courtyard!

Seeing these fierce beasts, Zhao Xinming was shocked, and at this moment, the sound of reading in the small courtyard stopped abruptly, and the tigers, wild wolves, and mountain bears also woke up from the sound of reading, raised their heads and let out a long howl, and turned their heads to look at Zhao Xinming.

Zhao Xinming knew that there was no hope of escaping, and he was about to fight to the death, but after these beasts glanced at Zhao Xinming, they were no longer interested, bypassed Zhao Xinming, and swaggered over!

Zhao Xinming looked at the beasts walking by, and couldn't figure out what the situation was for a while, and the voice in the small courtyard sounded again: "It's nice to have friends from afar." Friends have come from afar, why don't you come in and sit down?"

When the tigers, wild wolves, and mountain bears walked away, Zhao Xinming hesitated for a while, but still walked over. Standing at the door, Zhao Xinming hesitated, stretched out his hand, and couldn't knock down.

After a while, the door creaked open, and a man dressed as a 16 or 7-year-old scholar walked out. The scholar looked at Zhao Xinming and said with a smile: "Sir, please come in, my husband has been waiting for a long time." ”

Zhao Xinming couldn't help but whisper, "Who is your husband?"

The scholar smiled and did not answer, but said, "Sir, don't be nervous, my husband has no ill intentions. If you have any doubts, you may wish to ask my husband directly. With that, the boy turned and moved out of the way.

Zhao Xinming took a deep breath, tidied up his clothes, and then stepped into the door. The hut was very basic, and there was nothing else but the necessary tables and stools. Zhao Xinming looked around, didn't stop, and walked straight inside.

Bypassing the screen, I saw a Confucian scholar sitting behind a low table, with a book in the middle of the low table and a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone next to it. Obviously, it was this Confucian who was reading just now.

Zhao Xinming walked to the table, gave a deep salute, and said loudly: "Under Zhao Xinming, I have seen Mr." ”

"Mr. Zhao doesn't have to be polite, please take a seat first. Confucius raised his head, smiled slightly, and made a gesture of please to the left-hand position.

Zhao Xinming was not polite, sat down directly, and looked up at Confucianism. Confucian was in his 40s, with a dignified manners and a gentle demeanor, giving people a natural sense of intimacy. As soon as the two of them sat down, the scholar brought tea and snacks. Zhao Xinming took it with both hands, put it on the table, and did not eat it, and Confucian Sheng was not reluctant, and ate something by himself.

Confucian looked at Zhao Xinming and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao don't worry, I just want to chat with Mr. Zhao." ”

"I don't know what to call him. Zhao Xinming looked at Confucius and asked softly.

"Under Wu Ziyu, he is a Confucian student. Living in this place, just to specialize in knowledge, it made Mr. Zhao smile. Wu Ziyu explained with a smile. Wu Ziyu spoke softly and softly, like a breeze, which made people feel good.

"Sir is dedicated to learning, and I admire him. Zhao Xinming hurriedly said.

Mr. Zhao was serious. Wu Ziyu shook his head, and then asked, "Mr. is here late at night, but is there something wrong?"

"I was chased and killed below, and I was afraid of being caught up by others when I took the official road, so I took the mountain road. I don't know why, in the face of Wu Ziyu, Zhao Xinming was unsuspecting, and said that he would come out with the matter.

"I see, I hit it off with Mr. at first sight, if Mr. has any difficulties, you might as well say it, and I can do my best in the next. Wu Ziyu nodded, and said comfortingly.

After Zhao Xinming heard it, he was moved and told the ins and outs of the matter again. When he was about to talk about what happened in his body, Zhao Xinming suddenly woke up and broke out in a cold sweat.

In a hurry, Zhao Xinming reacted quickly, only saying that he was rescued, and as for what happened in Qinghe County, he said a word. After saying this, looking at Wu Ziyu again, Zhao Xinming suddenly felt scared for a while!

Wu Ziyu was also surprised, he is not an ordinary Confucian student, but a pure person, living here, called reading, is actually a practice, educating sentient beings, guiding people to learn is a first-class cultivation method!

Wu Ziyu has been immersed in this way for many years, not only people, but also beasts in the mountains, listening to him talk and reading, but also "put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha", so there are tigers, wild wolves, mountain bears "listen to books and learn" such a miracle!

But this Zhao Xinming in front of him, who is only sixteen years old, is not more powerful than a chicken, and he can resist the power of his "education" and wake up on his own, how can he not be surprised!

Wu Ziyu is a human spirit, seeing that Zhao Xinming's face is different, he knows that the other party is aware, so he no longer tempted, and proposed with a smile: "I see." Mr. Zhao might as well stay here for a while longer, and when the matter passes, Mr. Zhao does not need to worry whether he wants to take revenge or make a living. ”

Zhao Xinming shook his head and excused himself: "Thank you, Mr. for your kindness." I don't know Mr. in my life, so it's better not to bother. ”

Wu Ziyu nodded, didn't persuade much, and proposed again: "It's okay, it's dark today, Mr. Zhao might as well rest here for the night, what does Mr. think?"

"Then excuse me, sir. Zhao Xinming wanted to refuse, but when he thought of the tigers, wolves, and mountain bears just now, his heart moved, and he agreed. Wu Ziyu was also very happy, and the two chatted for a while, and then Wu Ziyu ordered Xiao Wu to take Zhao Xinming down to rest.

After Zhao Xinming left, Wu Ziyu did not rest, but sat in the hall, thinking carefully about Zhao Xinming's words. Wu Ziyu is not an ordinary person who reads, but is waiting for the price to sell!

Now that the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty is unstable, the world will be chaotic, and the situation of competing for hegemony will soon take shape. At this moment, Wu Ziyu is observing, waiting for the opportunity, in order to vote for the master, show what he has learned in his chest, and be a character who will be famous for centuries!

"Dig up something?" Wu Ziyu muttered to himself.

"What is there that deserves so much attention from the imperial court?" Wu Ziyu pondered carefully, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Could it be that this Zhao Xinming is a 'hidden dragon'?"

Thinking of this, Wu Ziyu shook his head again, "If there is no chaos today, it is too early for the 'Hidden Dragon' to be born." After thinking about it, Wu Ziyu didn't know the essentials, but he paid a little attention to Zhao Xinming.

In the dead of night, Zhao Xinming lay in bed and did not fall asleep. Looking at the moonlight sprinkled outside the window, Zhao Xinming couldn't help but think of Wu Ziyu, everything that happened just now was so weird, he actually told everything to a "stranger" without reservation, what the hell is going on?

Zhao Xinming thought about it, but he couldn't figure it out, and then he thought of Li Zhong again, and remembered his words "The so-called cultivation, all forms of life are cultivation". For a while, I had a special understanding of the word "cultivation".

Zhao Xinming couldn't sleep here, and Shan Haiqi didn't sleep at all. Master Qian's "hidden dragon" theory directly shocked Shan Haiqi to the outside and tender inside, and led people to rush here overnight, and even brought Master Qian here in order to be foolproof. After rushing for most of the night, he arrived outside Qinghe County, ordered his men to set up camp, and Shan Haiqi found Master Qian again.

"Master Qian, how sure are you that Zhao Xinming is the 'Hidden Dragon'?" Shan Haiqi asked in a low voice.

"Master Shan, whether it is or not, just kill it. Master Qian said with a smile.

"Master Qian, you and I have known each other for so many years, why bother me?" Shan Haiqi said a little unpleasantly.

"It's not an adult anyway. Master Qian replied nonchalantly.

"Having said that, it's just ......," Shan Haiqi said hesitantly.

"I understand Master Shan's concerns. Master Qian said, "That's it, yes or no, how about letting me see you first?"

"Then there is Master Laoqian. Shan Haiqi was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked.

"Shan adults don't need to be polite, in fact, adults really don't have to worry. Master Qian paused for a moment, and then said, "I have been thinking about this matter, and I always feel that it is not very likely that this Zhao Xinming is a 'hidden dragon'." ”

"Master Qian, is there something wrong?" Shan Haiqi was secretly surprised and hurriedly asked.

Master Qian said in a deep voice: "As far as I know, this Zhao Xinming is not outstanding except for being a little smarter, and until now, there is no noble person to help, and it is difficult to say whether he can live or not, so I feel that it is not very likely." ”

"Right or wrong, it's better to be careful. Shan Haiqi shook his head and muttered to himself.
