Liaozhai: A scholar should draw a sword

Chapter 32
Upon hearing what the blind old man said, Zhou Yu immediately retorted:

"Fortunately, you are still a member of Taoism. The Tao Te Ching says: Tao produces one, one produces two, two produces three, and three produces all things.

All things are living beings, born, grown, prosperous, withered, and reincarnated according to the way of heaven.

Confucian sages also said: There is no distinction between teaching and learning.

28 constellations, 36 celestial gangs, 72 dishas, ​​how many of them are human proofs?

You have only learned a little superficiality, so you dare to speak nonsense here and speak for the heavens.

In the end, you didn't even comprehend the Tao clearly, so what the hell did you do?What do you do?

In the eyes of this master, you are a crooked devil! "

"it is good!"

"Wonderful words, sir!"

Several students immediately applauded loudly, clapping their hands together.

The blind old Taoist master and his disciples had an exasperated look on their faces, and they were furious.

In terms of verbal skills, they are far behind.

Several yamen servants came to their senses, and one of them stepped forward with a smile on his face and said, "Master Zhou, look..."

"Okay, my master won't embarrass you, just go and search."

"Thank you Master Zhou for your understanding, thank you Master Zhou for your understanding..."

The other party hurriedly bowed their hands and thanked him.

"Humph!"

Ma Zhenren snorted heavily, but did not speak again.

Because he knew very well that if he opened his mouth again, he might be humiliating himself, so he might as well quickly pull out the monster and slap him in the face severely.

After a while...

"Beeping bell~"

The copper bell rang suddenly.

Immediately Ma Zhenren laughed triumphantly: "Hahaha, you still dare to argue, the monster is in your yard."

"Master, it should be in that yard."

Xiao Shunzi pointed to the west courtyard.

"Apprentice, open the way!"

"Yes!"

The two masters and apprentices walked into the west courtyard with high spirits.

"The highest goodness is like water. Water is good for all things without fighting. It deals with the evils of everyone, so it is more than Tao.

Live in a good place with a kind heart; with kindness and benevolence, speak kindly and faithfully; govern well, do things with kindness and ability, and act with kindness at the right time.

Husband only does not fight, so there is no preference..."

In the courtyard, Ying Ning was as calm as before, and while copying the "Tao Te Ching", he recited it happily.

"Yingning~"

"gentlemen……"

Ying Ning stood up and greeted her.

"It's okay, you continue to copy." Zhou Yu gave a reassuring look.

"Yes~"

Ying Ning sat down again, reading and copying:
"It's not as good as it is to keep it full. It can't last forever..."

"Master, it's her!"

Xiao Shunzi observed the movement of the copper bell, and couldn't help pointing at Ying Ning excitedly.

Ma Zhenren was furious: "What a witch, you dare to recite the Tao Te Ching nonchalantly in front of this real person, then I will let you experience the power of shaking demons and flying bells..."

While speaking, he raised his hand to pinch the formula, said a mantra in his mouth, and waved his hand again, many small copper bells appeared out of nowhere in the air, spinning around Ying Ning and making tinkling sounds.

Xiao Shunzi followed up diligently: "Zhenzhen, Zhenzhen, so shocking that the evil spirits showed their original form..."

At this time, Zhou Yu was still somewhat worried, fearing that Ying Ning would lose his mind and reveal his real fox body.

Although he is confident that he will save Ying Ning, spreading the word will ultimately be detrimental to his reputation.

Especially now is a special period when all the people are panicking.

The result was surprising.

Ying Ning didn't seem to be affected in the slightest, and without squinting, she wrote down seriously:

"Hold one's soul, can you be inseparable? Concentrate on being soft, can you be a baby? Get rid of mysteries, can you be flawless? Love the people and govern the country, can you be ignorant..."

She is not pretending, but really has nothing else to do.

The husband once warned her that fear often comes from a person's heart, and the fear in the heart is far more harmful than the real threat.

She believed in her husband, and she also believed in herself.

"Demon girl, don't read anymore... Apprentice, accept her book."

Seeing that Zhenyao Feiling had no effect, Ma Zhenren couldn't help shouting angrily, and ordered his disciples to accept Yingning's book.

"Yes!"

Xiao Shunzi responded, and rushed to the table to snatch the Tao Te Ching.

"roll!"

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Zhou Yu grabbed Xiao Shunzi's collar and threw it out.

"Well, you sour scholar, how dare you touch Ben Zhenren's disciple, Ben Zhenren must teach you a lesson today."

Ma Zhenren was so angry that he stepped forward two steps and raised his hand to grab Zhou Yu.

"Dare you Dare!"

Ning Caichen roared angrily and rushed forward.

Several other students also rushed forward, pushing Ma Zhenren to the ground, punching and kicking him.

Several yamen servants had no choice but to step forward to persuade...

In fact, they also couldn't understand the arrogance of the blind old man, and while pretending to persuade, they took the opportunity to kick a few times secretly.

In the end, the old guy left in embarrassment with his apprentice.

However, he still refused to admit defeat, and yelled as he walked: "That is clearly a demon girl, I will definitely not be mistaken..."

One of the yamen servants said angrily: "What does the Taoist priest use to look at it?"

"Nonsense, of course you have to look at it with your heart..."

After the blind old man left, a group of students were still furious and lashed out.

Zhou Yu waved his hand: "Okay, don't involve factional disputes in this matter, the old Taoist does not represent Taoism, or is a scum of Taoism.

Confucianism and Taoism have an inseparable relationship. If you have nothing to do, you can read some Taoist classics. "

"Yes, sir!"

"Okay, let's go back to class."

Ning Caichen said with some concern: "Sir, it seems that the blind old man won't let it go."

"It doesn't matter, if he dares to play tricks again, the teacher will never let him go lightly!"

At this time, Ying Ning came forward and gave a sincere blessing: "My little girl, thank you sir!"

"Hehe, it's okay, go and continue reading."

"Mmmmm~"

In the Zhou mansion, Ying Ning's identity was kept secret, except for Zhou Yu who knew it well, no one else knew her true origin.

Zhou Yu didn't intend to say anything, and everything went with the flow.

Shortly after.

Zhou Yu came to the county government alone.

"Master Zhou, I'm really sorry, what happened before was purely a misunderstanding..."

Obviously, Chang Fugui had already received the news, so he expressed his apology as soon as they met.

"It doesn't matter, the yamen's servants are also responsible.

It's just that the blind old Taoist keeps saying that there are monsters in Zhou's mansion, making it seem that Zhou is the culprit of the murder..."

"Misunderstanding, I have already reprimanded Daoist Ma..."

"Master Chang knows it's a misunderstanding, but the common people don't necessarily think so. Therefore, Zhou still wants to personally intervene in the case, and try to find out the culprit as soon as possible to prove his innocence."

Chang Fugui's expression changed: "Oh? Then I don't know what good plan Master Zhou has?"

"My lord, please send someone to accompany Zhou. Zhou wants to see the dead body of the victim with his own eyes. Maybe he can find some clues."

"No problem, come..."

Chang Fugui was eager for someone to help, so he immediately called a Yamen messenger over, and accompanied Zhou Yu to the Lianfang to check the dead body of the victim.

After arriving at Lianfang, the yamen servant opened the door, but he didn't dare to go in, saying it was a bit evil.

Zhou Yu is not even afraid of ghosts, but is he afraid of dead bodies?
Therefore, I walked into the morgue with a calm face...
