Chapter 45
45 Big brother is really annoying (1)
Stargazing tower, Eight Trigrams stage.
A white-robed, white-haired, and white-bearded supervisor sat in front of a table, twirling a cup of wine in his hand as he silently gazed toward the Northwest of the capital.
There was another table on the left, and it was filled with delicious food. In front of the table sat the Oval-faced, big-eyed Yan Caiwei, who had exquisite facial features and a hidden sweetness.
As she ate, she continued to chatter, “”Master, when can I reach the sixth rank and become an Alchemist?”
“The time will come when you stop eating and focus on cultivation,” the supervisor replied with a smile.
“That’s impossible in this lifetime.” Yan Caiwei said with difficulty.
She swallowed the food and continued to ramble, ” by the way, fake silver is easy to burn. It explodes when thrown into water. It can’t be preserved at all. It’s not good to report to the Emperor like this.”
“The Emperor has nothing better to do, just tell him to get lost,” the supervisor said softly.
Li Caiwei stuck out the tip of her tongue. I don’t dare to say that. You can go by yourself.
The supervisor smiled kindly.
“Master, fourth senior brother is going crazy. He’s always running out of the city, saying that the door to the profound meaning of alchemy is already open for him.”
“…..”
“Master, I think Xu Qi ‘an is a good guy. Can’t we take him in? Oh, you don’t know who he is. He’s the one who solved the tax and silver case …”
“….”
“Master, what is grafting?”
“Caiwei,” the supervisor sighed.
“Master, please speak.”
“Can’t you shut your mouth even when you’re eating?”
“Oh.”
After a few seconds …
“Master, why do you keep looking over there?”
“Caiwei ah, master has some regrets.”
“Master, please speak.”
“Master, why don’t you know the forbidden technique of the scholarly faction?”
“Hehe …” A proud expression had just appeared on Yan Caiwei’s face when she suddenly realized that the food on the table had instantly rotted and was emitting an unpleasant stinky smell.
She pouted her little mouth and looked like she was about to cry. Her heart ached so much that she couldn’t breathe.”Master, I was wrong. Quickly change back.”
The supervisor was still looking in the Northwest direction and said with a smile, ” I’ll teach you one more thing. In the field of alchemy, most of the transformations are irreversible.
As she wiped her tears, she left in tears. I’ll never come back to accompany you again, old man.
……
In the pavilion next to the bamboo forest, director Zhao Shou said in a deep voice, “”No one is allowed to get within 300 feet of this place,”
As he spoke, he waved his sleeve, and the clear air expanded, covering a radius of 300 feet around the pavilion.
After doing this, he turned around and looked at the three great Confucians who had been summoned.
Li Mubai held the teacup in his hands and had a solemn expression, ” I’ve asked around. At that time, there were no students near the quasi-Saint Academy. I also didn’t know who entered.
“The words on the stele don’t belong to any student of the Academy. To be able to write such ugly words, I don’t think he’s from our Academy.”
After saying this, li Mubai felt a little guilty. If he wasn’t a student of the Academy, who else could he be other than that cheap disciple?
“Du du …”
At this time, Zhang Shen knocked on the table. This great scholar put away all his cynicism and retorted his friend with a blank expression, ”
“Handwriting can be disguised, and ugly words are even more so.”
“Then, what’s the reason for the disguise?” Chen Tai suddenly asked. That monument had been erected there for more than ten years, and all the teachers and students in the Academy had tried it. They were all willing to be the hero. There was no reason to disguise the handwriting.
“Furthermore, Xu cijiu and Xu ningyan happened to be on a mountain trip.”
The three great Confucians finished their discussion and didn’t speak for a long time.
Li Mubai sipped the tea in his cup and sighed, for the sake of Heaven and earth, for the sake of the people, for the sake of inheriting the Supreme Arts, for the sake of peace for the world …
“I’m ashamed. I’ve long given up on the idea of an official career. I only want to leave my name in history.”
“Brother Chunjing has a noble character and unquestionable integrity.” Zhang Shen gave him a thumbs up and praised him, then continued, “”Let me guide you on the poems.”
Li Mubai immediately changed his words,”for the country and its people, it’s not contradictory to leaving a name in history ..”
Director Zhao Shou was stunned as he stared at li Mubai. His eyes flashed as he asked in surprise,”You’re about to establish your life?”
“!!!”Chen Tai and Zhang Shen were shocked.
Li Mubai laughed as he stroked his beard,”I had a moment of enlightenment.”
The other two great Confucians instantly felt sour.
After being exposed by director Zhao Shou, the two of them immediately felt a slight change in li Mubai’s aura.
The third stage of the life establishing realm was a realm where one searched for a goal in life. Some people read for the sake of fame, some read for the sake of wealth, and some read for the sake of blessing the future generations … Everyone had their own path.
Dean Zhao Shou’s Dao was to create a new school of thought for the Confucians, to break the shackles of thought and find a new path for the millions of scholars in the world.
Therefore, as long as he could not achieve this goal, he would not be able to break through to rank-2.
The others didn’t ask li Mubai about his life goal. Because at this moment, he was also in a hazy state.
Zhang Shen and Chen Tai looked at each other. They decided in their hearts that they would stay in the quasi-Saint Academy to comprehend the Dao and never come out again.
“From today onwards, the quasi-Saint Academy forbids students from entering.” Zhao Shou’s eyes scanned across the Confucians present. “Don’t tell anyone about this. I’m going to speak to the three of you.”
The three great Confucians looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Zhao Shou concentrated his Qi in his dantian and gathered his strength on the tip of his tongue.”A gentleman should keep his mouth shut.”
……
The two of them galloped quickly. When they were close to the capital, the brothers slowed down and let the horses gallop.
They rented inferior horses, which were only slightly better than Fuma. The advantage was that they were cheap, but the disadvantage was that they had poor physical strength.
Unable to maintain high-speed running for a long time.
If he died, he would have to pay more than ten taels of silver. The two brothers were both people who knew their wallets very well.
Xu niannian let out a breath of air and finally asked the question in his heart, “”Big brother, shouldn’t you explain?”
He was referring to the shocking aphorism.
“What do you want me to explain?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.
“Big brother was only enlightened, how could he say such earth-shaking words?” Xu niannian proudly raised his chin.
Look at how smug you are … ‘Of all the lower-class students, only the ones who are good at studying are good …’ I graduated from nine years of compulsory education and police School … Moreover, he was an experienced keyboard warrior who was deeply influenced by the keyboard culture and knew a little about everything …
“That’s something only scholars can say.”
Look at how smug you are … ‘Of all the lower-class students, only the ones who are good at studying are good …’ I graduated from nine years of compulsory education and police School … Moreover, he was an experienced keyboard warrior who was deeply influenced by the keyboard culture and knew a little about everything … In terms of knowledge, you scholars are only little brothers in front of me!
Xu Qi ‘an really wanted to complain about this.
He pondered for a moment and changed his words. cilao also felt that there were some problems with the current Confucian thinking, but when I asked you what a scholar should do, your answer was still the standard answer of the times.
Xu niannian fell into deep thought.
“This is the limitation of one’s thinking. You scholars are influenced by some kind of thinking, and over time, you have become like it. Even if they realize something is wrong, it’ll be hard for them to break free.” Xu Qi ‘an said, ”
let’s put it in another way: mental imprisonment.
thought imprisonment … Xu cijiu repeated the words.
Yun Lu Academy’s headmaster is also restricted by his thoughts and is affected by the Cheng clan’s learning. He wants to break through and find a new school of thought, but he’s in the vortex himself, so how can he lead all the scholars in the world out of it? ”
“The only ones who can do it are those who are outside the vortex.
“Maybe it’s because I haven’t read many books that I’m able to take an unconventional path, stand out from the masses, and not be confined by the Cheng clan’s science.”
Of course, I also have the mental shackles from the 21st century, but no one has given me a hard time … Xu Qi ‘an said in his heart.
To put it bluntly, the confinement of one’s thoughts was the three views, which were created by the times. You’re in this era and have been influenced by it, so you won’t find it a problem. Only when the time scale reached a certain distance could one be able to see the problem from a higher position.
Xu cijiu did not speak for a long time. He began to think and examine the objects. After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he looked at Xu Qi ‘an with a bright and energetic expression.
“Big brother’s words have enlightened me.”
Big brother is so amazing.
His comprehension was very strong … Xu Qi ‘an made his evaluation in his heart, but he did not take it seriously on the surface. Instead, he revealed a mocking expression.
“It’s a pity that you didn’t inherit the good genes of my Xu family. You inherited the good genes of the Li family.”
Big brother is so annoying … Xu cijiu suddenly didn’t feel like talking to him.
If his mother heard this, she would be so angry that she would slam the table and curse, “This little Rascal’s birth characters were exactly the opposite of his mother’s.
