The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 24 Burning Books
Burning these anti-books without anyone noticing is the best ending.

"Brother Zhou, burn this anti-book for you. Stay outside the concierge and don't allow anyone to come in. Otherwise, the news of burning the book will spread, and the master will definitely blame us..."

Bai Gui brought the poetry collection over and said in a low voice.

The ancients cherish books!

From the first day of school, the teacher will teach all scholars what it means to cherish calligraphy and paper.The paper that has been written on is not dared to be thrown casually, and must be burned in the pagoda of pity.

The opening poem of Volume [-] of "Er Ke Pai An" says: "The scriptures and scriptures in the world are the same, and those who see them must put them in the fire. Or put them in a long and clean place, and the natural blessings will be endless." The father of Wang Yigong in the Song Dynasty cherished the calligraphy and paper, Whenever he saw discarded paper on the ground, he tried to pick it up and burn it. Even if it fell on the place of dung, he would take it out and wash it with water.After so many years, suddenly there was a dream. The sage Confucius said that he cherished paper, so he sent his disciple Zeng Shen to be born in their home.After the dream, she gave birth to a son. Because of the words in the dream, she named him Wang Zeng.Later, Wang Zeng won three yuan and was named the Duke of Yi.

In the eyes of the ancients, the crime of disrespecting calligraphy is extremely serious. You will not be expelled if you fight or fight, but if you disrespect and love calligraphy and spread it out, you will definitely be expelled from the school.

"Thank you, Brother Bai!"

Zhou Yuan was instantly moved.

In his opinion, Bai Gui respects and loves his teachers in everything, unites relatives and friends, and has excellent character.It is not too difficult for a rich family to pay Shuxiu to enroll, but it is extremely difficult for a poor family.

Now that Bai Gui can burn books for him, he immediately introduces Bai Gui as a confidant and good friend.

What is a friend in need?

Today he understood.

Bai Gui didn't understand, so although he has integrated into the living atmosphere of the ancients, he still has the disconnection of the modern people. Looking at Zhou Yuan's appearance is a bit weird, he didn't think much about it. It's a treasure. He was afraid that Zhou Yuan would see something, so he said casually: "When I burn the books later, I will also take a look at your other books to see if there are any taboos..."

He felt that this was an excellent reason for him to burn books and Zhou Yuan to watch over them.

It has just been proved that his knowledge is better than Zhou Yuan, and he can see whether there are any taboo points in some books.

Otherwise, if Zhou Yuan burns the book if he keeps watch, he will miss this collection of poems.

"Okay, go out and watch the wind..."

Zhou Yuan took a deep breath and suppressed the emotion in his heart. He is a scholar, so he can't show his emotions at will, and always keep in mind the style of a gentleman.

lean less.

After seeing Zhou Yuan walking outside the door, he seemed to be digesting food.

Bai Gui didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately stored this collection of poems in the mirror, and Kunlun Mirror also sold the ancient book after a while, adding another 20 yuan to his property.

"It seems that this book is not an attractive authentic work, but a printed copy. It's a pity."

He sighed, and felt that he was a little wishful thinking.

In his previous life, he had seductive calligraphy works. In his era, a single character cost hundreds of thousands.One lot, the three words "Rundetang" was auctioned for a high price of 126 million.

If this "Half-Crying, Half-Laughing Lou Poetry Grass" is authentic, not to mention selling for hundreds of millions, it is estimated that there will still be tens of millions.

Another printed book was exchanged from the mirror, more than ten yuan.

Bai Gui threw it into the stove and let it burn.

Whether any books have been burned, the ashes after burning can still show one or two doubts.

Taking advantage of this gap, he carefully read other books.

Not one place was missed.

If it is found that there is a counter-report, it will not only be a disaster for Zhou Yuan and the Zhou family in Nanyuan Pangjia Village, but also a disaster for the school in Bailu Village, and even Xu Xiucai who teaches Zhou Yuan will be questioned.

This is something Bai Gui dare not imagine.

Soon, he found some anti-Qing articles from these books, which were hidden so deeply that it was difficult for ordinary people to find them, but after a little thinking and contacting current affairs, he would find "unpredictable intentions".

Tear off these pages and burn them together.

"Half-Crying, Half-Laughing Lou Poetry Grass was published in Sanyuan in 1903, and it was quickly seized by the government, so the circulation was extremely small. Naturally, there are not many surviving copies handed down to later generations. It is a lonely copy, so the value is higher... "

"As for the ordinary collection of books in the late Qing Dynasty, they are not worth a lot of money."

Bai Gui put the books he was flipping through back together.

The money he keeps in the Kunlun Ancient Mirror is equivalent to black money, and he occasionally spends one or two taels. With his identity, others will suspect it for a while at most, thinking it is saving money, so they will not care too much.

But if you spend too much, it will cause people to worry about it.

Money laundering is also related to status. The higher the status, the easier it is to launder money.

It takes a long time to burn a book.

A quarter of an hour passed.

Bai Gui coughed twice, and Zhou Yuan, who was pacing outside the gatehouse, came in and asked in a low voice, "Brother Bai, are you alright?"

"look!"

Bai Gui pointed to the book-like ashes inside the clay stove.

"It's finally healed, but I was terrified." Zhou Yuan patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief. He picked up a piece of hard wood, stuffed it into the earthen stove, and smashed the ashes from the burning book. Original appearance.

After this incident, Zhou Yuan and Bai Gui became good buddies who talked about everything.Of course, generally speaking, it was Zhou Yuan who was talking, Bai Gui was listening, and Bai Gui also realized how much kindness he had towards Zhou Yuan. Ask the teacher to ask.

Although Zhou Yuan's knowledge is far inferior to that of Bai Gui, a later generation, his attainments in scriptures are far ahead of Bai Gui.He has read the Four Books and Five Classics thoroughly, but only breaks the good rule of the Spring and Autumn Period.

The Master said: "When you enter a country, you can know its teachings, and its people are gentle and honest, so you can teach poetry; if you are far away, you can teach books; if you are broad and easy to be good, you can teach them happily; if you are quiet and subtle, you can teach them easily; if you are respectful, thrifty and Zhuang. Respect, etiquette is also; it belongs to words and things, Spring and Autumn teaching also, "

The general idea is that when you go to a country and look at the customs there, you can know the enlightenment of that country.If you are gentle, gentle, honest and simple, then it is the result of the teaching of "Poetry"; if you know the ancient things, it is the result of the teaching of "Book"; If it is subtle, it is the result of the teaching of "Yi"; if it is dignified and respectful, it is the result of the teaching of "Li"; if it is good at eloquence and eloquence, it is the result of the teaching of "Spring and Autumn".

Knowing that Xu Xiucai and Zhou Yuan both governed the Spring and Autumn Annals as the main scripture, Bai Gui naturally would not look further away. After studying the Four Books, he also chose "Spring and Autumn" as the main scripture.

Zhishangshu or other classics are a bit tasteless for later generations of the Republic of China.

Shan Chunqiu, at least he can learn from Dr. Hu and write an "Outline of the History of Chinese Philosophy" when it is rolled out, and it will be famous all over the country.

Zhou Yuan was also overjoyed after knowing that Bai Gui chose to govern the Spring and Autumn Period.

After establishing friendship, Bai Gui asked him for knowledge, and he would not refuse anything.
