Chapter 240 Breaking Everyone's Face
"Since it's a group arena, who can continue to answer this question?" Lu Deming's master's demeanor was not angry and prestige.

His hawk-like eyes shot at everyone, and the people around were suddenly speechless.

Finally, when his gaze fell on Changsun Jing, he saw that Changsun Jing was trembling all over, blushing and lowering his head.

No one answered for a long while, but those old fellows smiled slightly and smoothed things over and said, "It's getting late, brother Yuen Long, shall we take a seat?"

Lu Deming nodded when he heard this, and then said: "The sage has a saying, three people must have my teacher. In this round of group arena, Ni Tu won, and he will be our teacher for a day. The gift of a gentleman is with beauty. That being the case, everyone bows to the winner."

"Yes!"

Everyone tidied up their clothes and saluted Ni Tu according to Lu Deming's command.

Raise your hands high, go up and down, hold your fists with your hands and raise them above your head, and bow.

Ni Tu also made a long bow at the right time to return the salute.

Stand upright, clasp your hands, left hand on top, palms inward, when leaning over to push your hands, slowly raise your hands up to your forehead, slightly higher than the center of your eyebrows, bend your body about [-] degrees, and restore your standing posture when you get up.

The long bow of the literati is different from the clasping ceremony of the heavy martial arts period.

There are distinctions between civil and martial arts, good or bad, and good or bad.

One is right palm and left fist, and the other is left palm and right fist.There is a saying in the Tao Te Ching: The left is more valuable for a gentleman to live in, and the right is more valuable for using soldiers.

For auspicious things, the left side is the top, for ominous things, the right side is the top.Therefore, the words of right palm and left fist contain the meaning of life and death, but left palm and right fist are just for learning.

The way to salute is to stand side by side, put the four fingers of the left hand together and straighten them into palms, and bend the thumbs together.

The right hand forms a fist, the left palm covers the face of the right fist, and the left fingertips are at the same level as the chin.

The right fist and eye are obliquely facing the chest socket, placed in front of the chest and bent into a circle, the tip of the elbow is slightly drooping, and the distance between the palm of the fist and the chest is [-] to [-] centimeters.

The head is upright, the body is straight, the eyes are on the recipient, and the face and manner are natural and generous.

Ni Tu has researched that the traditional etiquette at this time is inseparable from three books: "Zhou Li", "Yi Li" and "Book of Rites".

When people meet each other, whether it's hand-clasping salute, clasped fist salute, or hand-to-hand salute, cross-hand salute, etc., these movements formed according to the changes in the posture of the hands are all evolved from the bow salute before the Spring and Autumn Period.

But no matter how it evolves, Yin Yang Tai Chi comes from Taoist rituals.The core meanings of handcuffing, bowing, and clasping fists are still so stable.

Such as precautions.

When arching the hands, the hands are slightly bent, stacked in front of the chest or on the upper side, forming an arch, or one hand can be held empty, and the other hand can be used to hug.As a kind of traditional ceremonial ceremony, there are also differences between men and women. When a man salutes, his right hand forms a fist and his left hand wraps around, which means that he suppresses the aggressive right hand to express friendliness.

The clasping salute actually evolved from the ancient military salute.

The standard posture for holding fists is: step forward with the left foot and follow with the right foot.

While walking side by side, embrace the chest with both hands, make a fist with the right hand, with the face of the fist facing the left hand, and the top of the fist facing the lower end of the middle finger of the left palm.

Straighten the four fingers of the left hand, or put the four fingers of the left hand together to naturally cover the right fist, clasp the thumb of the left hand with the tiger's mouth of the right hand, bend the thumb, and push out the palms of both hands toward the chest.

This etiquette alone can now become a systematic course.

Moreover, teachers who teach etiquette are often hired for life.

The powerful families will spend a lot of money to hire a professional etiquette master to teach the whole family's boys and girls.

Even if the child grows up to be a weak crown adult, even if the child gets married and starts a business after enrolling in the imperial examination, and takes over the position of patriarch, he still cannot do without the ritual of the clan.

If you are a person who worships the government, the etiquette above the court is an independent system.

Paying homage to ancestors and holy spirits is another grand and cumbersome system.

In the land of etiquette, the character of etiquette alone is a huge and profound cultural heritage. Unfortunately, in later generations, in order to pursue interests and indulge selfish desires, people kicked this Chinese treasure into the garbage dump of history.

After bowing to each other, Lu Deming admonished these men and women again, and he didn't give up until everyone showed any signs of piety.

Lu Deming took Ni Tu's hand and walked towards the VIP room together.

The rest of them were divided into men and women by Xue Sanniang and sat in different rooms.

A large copper pot is placed in the middle of the round table that can be rotated, not only for shabu-shabu, but also using hot steam to heat the room.

Before the meal was short, dozens of deals were negotiated at the round table.

Zhen Zhener registered the names of these new guests and went out to urge the dishes.

Food and wine were served on the table one after another, and the atmosphere gradually warmed up.

Pushing a cup and changing a cup, the atmosphere is harmonious with laughter and laughter.

After drinking for three rounds and eating five flavors, Lu Deming put down his chopsticks and said to everyone: "I am a Confucian scholar, and I shouldn't mention some copper-smelling things, but people are not sages, and all plants and trees need the dew in the morning sun. This time Ni Tu is going to visit Tianzhu Kingdom, I heard that there is gold all over the place. This old man is not too greedy, he just wants to be able to provide for his children and grandchildren before closing his eyes, and this old man will die with peace of mind."

Speaking of this, Lu Deming had tears in his eyes.

The old man on the side raised his hand and patted Lu Deming's shoulder to express his sympathy.

Lu Deming suppressed his excitement for a while, and continued: "I don't have much money to fund this trade as capital, so I'll be a bit poorer, and take 1000 taels of silver. Brothers and virtuous brothers, if you want to make a fortune with me, We can also go together."

When he said this, everyone was very happy.

This is a good thing in the first place, who doesn't want to get rich.

When Lu Deming said this, he looked at his old face and helped Ni Tu.

Who wouldn't want to do this kind of good deed that not only makes a lot of money but also makes others owe a big favor.

"I also offer 1000 taels!"

"Me too!"

"And I!"

……

Everyone expressed their support.

Lu Deming was extremely moved and raised his glass to express his gratitude.

There was another burst of toasting.

The banquet lasted until it got dark.

After seeing off the crowd, Ni Tu added some more firewood to the hot kang firewood stove, felt the temperature of the kang head, and tucked the quilt over the sleepy Lu Deming, then tiptoed out the door and closed the door again.

Xue Mei'er, who was sitting by the square table in the middle hall, was giggling while drinking.

Ni Tu who had just stepped into the room was taken aback by her appearance.

"What's the matter? Have you drunk too much? Come, drink the hangover soup I prepared for you."

Xue Sanniang heard Ni Tu's voice, raised her head, stared at Ni Tu intently, and suddenly burst into tears with a "wow".

"what happened?"

Ni Tu quickly put down the medicine bowl and helped stroke her back.

"Did you drink too much? Are you feeling uncomfortable? I'll rub your back for you, drink this soup for a while, and sleep for a while and you'll be fine."

"No! You hug me!" Xue Meier rushed towards Ni Tu...
