Chapter 702: The vast world changes

ps: Chapter 2, ask for a recommendation ticket!

"One day in the middle of the mountain is a thousand years in the world..."

At the east gate of Xinzheng, Gu Bu Ziqing looked at the mans shoes that poked his feet under his feet, and the dark clothes that were ripped into rags, touched his bun, which turned from black to gray, and sighed in an old-fashioned manner.

Seven years ago, after meeting Zhao Wuxi, he left Xinjiang and went all over the world to track down Lao Tzu. Involved in the land of three states and beyond the realm of the five kingdoms, I followed the Weihan that Laozi finally rode a green ox to look for, and finally found the old man in Taihua Mountain who saw the dragon in sight!

The mountain of Taihua is cut into squares, its height is 5,000 meters, the land is ten miles wide, and there are no birds and beasts.

But it is also a natural place of seclusion, with mountains and clear springs, making people feel that they can become immortals here...

In the next few years, Gu Bu Ziqing was willing to serve Lao Tzu, and lived in seclusion with him, watching the cranes croak, the purple smoke rising from the rocks, the white clouds and the dogs, and the spring water turning into ice, and the snow melting in the spring. ...

Lao Tzu realized the Great Way of Heaven and Earth here, and he was lucky to be preached by it. Gu Bu Ziqing touched the bulge of his chest, and he was carefully protecting a silk book of five thousand words. This is the crystallization of Lao Tzu's lifelong learning. It is also worth his study in the second half of his life.

But what Gubu Ziqing didn't expect was that in just seven years, the world outside the mountain has changed!

In his unfortunate prophecy, Le Qi failed to eat Sishang fatty fish while he was alive, and he died in Jin State, Taihang Mountain, and Yangchangban.

But what surprised him was that the shirtless little gentleman who had only met once in those days had suddenly become a man of change in the world! After coming down from Taihua Mountain, you only need to listen carefully in well-informed stores, and all you hear is about him! He is simply a living legend!

"It seems that the Zhao clan is going to thrive!" Gubu Ziqing wondered if he wanted to go to the place controlled by the Zhao clan after he left the country of Zheng. Those fair and smooth papers that only nobles can afford are the best carriers for spreading Lao Tzu's five thousand words! He is now in urgent need of financial support.

But things started to get nasty. At this time, it seemed that he had truly entered the "Ji Shi" asserted by sages such as Zichan, Yan Ying, and Ji Zha. The six ministers of Jin State, Qi State, Zheng State, Wei State, Song State, Lu State, Cao State, and Sishang princes. Suddenly, the whole Central Plains was engulfed by the flames of war. If Gubu Ziqing wanted to go to Zhao's territory, he had to consider his own safety along the way.

He thought about it while walking, and when he passed by Xinzheng East Gate, when he looked up, he saw a person first.

A very unique person in the eyes of those they meet. He has broad shoulders, protruding forehead, tendrils hanging down his chest, and gentle manner. Even if he doesn't look at his face, his height of more than nine feet is enough to stand out from the crowd!

Gu Bu Ziqing couldn't help but stop and look at the person carefully...

...

Confucius and his disciples were separated, and they could only wait in the east gate of Zheng State, in the bustling city. The old man stood alone, carrying a burden, and described being restrained. Quite depressing.

But he was not in a hurry, because this was not the first time he had been separated from his disciples, and the last time was more dangerous and serious.

In September of this year, he was ordered to be expelled from Nanzi by the rude Nanzi because of a "debate between heaven and man". Facing this unreasonable and powerful daughter-in-law, Confucius couldn't help but scolded him, "Only villains and women are difficult to support. Also!", with a wave of his sleeves, he left Song country in a gloomy manner.

This journey back on the road has been bumpy from the start. When passing through Kuangyi on the border of Zheng and Song, Gongliangru, a disciple of Confucius who was driving a carriage, showed off. Pointing to a large area, deep grooves and high bases. Kuangcheng, who had many buildings and fortified walls, said, "I traveled from Chen Guobei back then. I have been to this place before, and I came in through the gap in the city wall."

The people of Kuangyi, who were working in the fields, saw his actions and heard these words, and when they looked at Confucius' tall figure and face, their eyes turned red all of a sudden, and they all shouted: "Yanghu is here again. Hugh let him run away."

This is a pure disaster. When Yanghu was in charge of the state as his escort, he helped Jin to attack Zheng. He once occupied this place and treated the people of Kuang brutally. Think it's Yanghu.

As soon as it was passed on from ten to ten, a group of people suddenly came from Kuangyi, holding farm tools and weapons, and besieged Confucius and his party on a small hill.

During this process, Yan Yuan, Confucius' favorite disciple, disappeared, and when he emerged from the bush with all the wounds and grass on his head, Confucius stroked Yan Hui with some distress and said back: "I think You are dead..."

"You are here, how dare Hui to die first!" Yan Hui said.

This is probably the most dangerous thing that Confucius encountered in his life. The people of Kuang did not listen to their explanation, and more and more people came around. Since they couldn't get out and the food was almost exhausted, the disciples were very anxious.

In order to calm the hearts of his disciples, Confucius caressed a section of the qin on the spot.

"Since King Wen is gone, the ritual and music of the Zhou Dynasty is in our hands. If God wants to destroy the ritual of Zhou, we should not let us learn it. If the heaven does not want to destroy the ritual of Zhou, then the people of Kuangdi can destroy the ritual of Zhou. How am I?"

The disciples asked, "Does the Master also believe in the mandate of Heaven?"

"Man has destiny, and heaven also has destiny. Dao will act and it will also be destiny; Dao will be destroyed and also destiny. I believe in the destiny, but it is not the destiny interpreted by the sorcerers of the Song Dynasty!"

The disciples immediately settled down and waited quietly. Finally, on the fifth day of being trapped, reinforcements arrived when the Kuang people made up their minds to rush in and kill their hundreds of people. It was Zilu who ran out and brought in the rescue soldiers of Song from Pucheng, and then dispersed the Kuang people and let Confucius and his party escape.

After expressing gratitude to Chen Dingguo, the Song general who was guarding Puyi, the master and apprentice set off again, but when they were in Hulao in the east of Zheng State, they were detained for several days because of the disturbance in Kuangyi before they were released to continue westward. go.

After crossing the sour jujube and crossing the Sishui River, I finally dragged my tired and hungry body to Xinzheng, but it didn't come at the right time. It happened to be the climax of entering the city in the morning. Because of the crowd and confusion, Confucius and his disciples were separated.

The world is bustling, all come for profit; the world is bustling, all for profit. It is perfect to use this sentence to influence Xinzheng, the capital city of Zheng State: the haggling is endless, and the soldiers carry sackcloth bags, and put precious things such as salt and flour, as well as common things such as sesame and millet, on the carriage for inspection. After passing the talisman, the wheels squeaked, and the heavy cargo flew away.

This is a city with the word "li" in the head, everyone seems to be very busy, but Mr. Kong has nothing to do, standing in a daze under the city wall of the east gate of Zhengcheng.

Selling husbands and wives came and went next to Confucius. There was also a man in tattered clothes, leaning on a bamboo stick and wearing mango shoes. He seemed to be a hermit. He stared at Confucius for a while, Confucius. Raising his robe and salute to him, he nodded with a smile and left.

Confucius did not leave this place hastily, because Confucius had an unknown weakness, that is, he didn't know the way well... In the words of later generations, he was blind.

In a prosperous city like Xinzheng, you will lose your way if you are not careful, so it is better to stay where you are.

I don't know how long it took before a group of disciples came here out of breath to look for it. The leaders were Zigong and Zilu. After seeing Confucius from a distance, they ran up to him in surprise and saluted.

"Finally found the master!"

Confucius smiled at his disciples: "How did you find this place?"

Zigong said, "Just now there was a man leaning on a bamboo stick, wearing mango shoes, and wearing a tattered coat. He suddenly grabbed me on the street and said, "There is a man at the east gate. His forehead is like Yao and his neck is like Gao. Tao, his shoulders are like Zichan, but three inches from the waist down from Yu. He looks like a 'lost dog', so he may be the person you are looking for."

He told Confucius this passage one by one, Confucius was stunned for a moment, but laughed calmly and said: "This person just passed by me, probably a reclusive person, tell me about my appearance. It's an exaggeration to be like this. But to say that I'm panicking like a lost dog, yes! yes!"

Confucius hasn't laughed like this for a long time since he left the state of Lu, but for some reason, after hearing the evaluation of "the dog who lost his family" today, he laughed so hard that he almost burst into tears... The ups and downs along the way , cold and warm self-awareness.

...

"Master is still used to Zheng's climate and diet? If it doesn't feel right, I will find a few chefs from Ludi."

"I'm here to travel and reflect, not to retire."

Zigong found an unowned ordinary house for Confucius and his party of a hundred people in Dongcheng, Xinzheng. After a few days, he came to see the teacher again. But seeing that Confucius's troubles and fatigue had disappeared, he Shijuan looked back at Zigong and asked, "I can tell you that the ruler of Zheng Guo wants to hire you to stay in Xinzheng and become a doctor?"

"That's right, when I entered the West Palace, the government of Zheng Guo told me privately that Zheng Guo still lacks a big person, and I hope I will consider it..."

"How do you answer?"

"The boy declined..."

"Although Zheng is not a big country, it is also a country of thousands of vehicles. It is not easy for you to refuse the post of doctor. But you are doing the right thing. You have the destiny in your body, how can you switch to another country..."

There is something in the words. The biggest difference between the master and the apprentice is also Zigong's biggest heart problem. Zigong bowed his head: "Master, I..."

Confucius looked at his former disciple earnestly: "Junjun, ministers, Zhao Zitai treats you with courtesy, and you return loyalty, which is understandable. Besides, although Zhao's family disrespected the monarch and Shiqing in Lu State~www.wuxiahere.com ~In terms of people's livelihood, you have done a good job. Although I am in a foreign country, you have done a good job in your government.

"But since he returned to Jin, he has been fighting every day. The people of Jinyang, Hanoi, and Lu have also been involved in the war. I don't know how many years this war will last, and how many people will die."

"The Zhao family was forced to fight."

"Forced to fight? He has already destroyed Fan, disabled Zhongxing, and clan Handan. It has been half a year now, and it should be over. But he still blatantly rebelled against Jin and the emperor. This is to fight against the world. What is this for? What? How far does he have to play to be satisfied?"

"The lord has said that the six generals of Jin have been divided for a long time, the morality of Jin has been greatly abolished, and the top and bottom are out of order. The state of Jin would not be able to live in peace for one day, and the lord also thought hard, and finally came to a conclusion..."

Zigong took a deep breath and said loudly, "Is Jin's government evil?
