Longevity starts from Liaozhai

Chapter 32

Tixue was so curious that he took a closer look at the content on the paper.

"I would like to get a yellow croaker."

Ti Xue twirled his beard, angry and funny, and cursed in a low voice: "This kid is ridiculous."

Liu Lao smiled slightly: "He is a wonderful person, but unfortunately I have to go back to Dongting Lake, otherwise I will definitely treat him to a meal."

Ti Xue: "Old Liu didn't blame him, it's a great gift, this kid doesn't know what's good, I'll talk about him personally later."

Old Liu: "God will forgive young people for their mistakes. Besides, he has done nothing wrong. I like him very much. You don't have to blame him. Well, my old wife has prepared delicious food and wine at her natal home, which coincides with Dongting Lake. The flowers are in full bloom, so I'll go slowly." He put away Qin Chuan's manuscript and walked outside.

Tixue and the others sent Mr. Liu out. There was a small boat beside the boat, and Mr. Liu suddenly appeared on the boat. The boat parted from the waves and disappeared into the night after a while.

Seeing all this, everyone felt suspicious, Huang Mingshi asked: "Great Master, what is the identity of this old Liu?"

Tixue said lightly: "I am also a sage of Confucianism. I ask you to keep what I have seen today, and don't publicize it too much."

He also knew that this matter must not be hidden, but he just hoped that these people would be sensible and not publicize it.

Tixue Youyou sighed with emotion, "The way is not good, you can float in the river and sea by taking a scorpion."

It's really enviable.

So Huafang sang the first word of Qinchuan Water Tune as the finale, and then the song ended.

Huang Menghun didn't keep the house and went downstairs, wanting to see Qin Chuan, but found that Qin Chuan and Xiaoqian were gone.

After asking around, I found out that the two had been invited by Tixue to another boat.

...

...

A flat boat appeared above the sea of ​​clouds.

The boatman who rowed the boat was none other than Qin Fang from the Dragon King Temple in Qinjia Village.

Mr. Liu stood on the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, "After you take me to Dongting Lake, then take a flying boat to the East China Sea to fetch a psychic yellow croaker and give it to the scholar. Don't take it lightly, lest people say I'm stingy. After the incident , you go to the post."

"Follow the law."

...

...

In a private room of a painting boat, there are only Ti Xue and Qin Chuan.

"Qin Chuan, your knowledge is definitely not something that can be taught by a country school teacher, but I don't ask you about your teacher's inheritance. You can tell these secrets if you want to, and don't tell them if you don't. Don't use some lies to prevaricate me. Success." Tixue paused and sighed, "You know you missed a great opportunity, I feel sorry for you, and happy for our Confucianism."

Qin Chuan: "Students do have some secrets. Grandmaster doesn't want to explore them. Thank you, students."

Ti Xue suddenly smiled, "Aren't you curious about the chance?"

Qin Chuan clasped his hands and replied: "Master has something to say, you can't be dissuaded from the past. There is really no need to get entangled in what happened."

Tixue laughed and scolded: "The previous generation of Tianhan and the great Confucianism said 'never forget the past, the teacher of the future'. Why didn't you learn it.'"

Qin Chuan: "The students have learned it now."

Ti Xue smiled, "You are really interesting, but it is a pity that I will be resigning. Otherwise, it would be nice to go out with you if I have something to do. Let me tell you straight, the noble person tonight is the Dragon King of Yujiang, who is also the god of water in Dongting. His post is supernatural. Even if he blasphemes the dragon god four times, he must be given three points.

Of course, if I tell you about these divine things, you must not be very clear about them.These things are secrets that can only be learned by two Jinshi.And knowing this doesn't mean much to my Confucian disciples.After all, my Confucian disciples, if they become great Confucianists, they should cultivate a noble spirit, avoid ghosts and gods, and be difficult to get close to the divine way.

And based on the appreciation of your poem by Lord Long tonight, if you make some unreasonable demands, it may not be able to lead you into the divine way, enjoy the incense, and live hundreds of years. I don't know, anyway, you missed this opportunity.Do you regret it now? "

Qin Chuan thought to himself: "What a lifespan of hundreds or thousands of years."

He has obtained the longevity Tao seed, and he really doesn't have a cold at all about the life extension of the Shinto Tao.However, Tixue's words revealed another layer of mystery in this world. It turned out that the powerful people in this world are no strangers to these ghosts and gods.

They know the truth of the world far better than ordinary people.

"It's useless for students to regret, so I still don't regret it."

Tixue smiled: "I admire you for this. In today's world, there are many people who are pragmatic in my Confucian school, but few who are pragmatic. The article in your courtyard examination has a lofty intention and can take into account the essence of benevolence and righteousness. Therefore, I have reported to you a little inaccurate." realistic expectations."

Qin Chuan: "Please also ask the great master to express it."

Tixue Youyou sighed, "In today's world, there are no saints in the Confucian school, no heavenly venerable in the Taoist school, and no Buddha in the Buddhist school. If my Confucian school produces a saint first, it can keep my fortune in the Confucian school from declining for a thousand years. I have been a scholar for many years. Good talents and beautiful qualities, neither one can see the hope of becoming a saint until I met you. Speaking of it, this is also unintentional. It is just a little hope. There has never been a saint. During this period, many great Confucian scholars have worked hard to study the relationship between heaven and man, understand the changes of the past and the present, and become the words of a family, but they have not become a saint. My expectation of you is really wishful thinking. After you hear it, tell me Talk nonsense."

Qin Chuan: "Well, students don't want to be saints either."

He has been a villain for two lifetimes, and his greatest wish is to be a good person for the first lifetime. I hope God will not force him.

As for becoming a saint, Qin Chuan never thought about it.

Ti Xue: "A sage is not whether he wants to do it, but whether he can do it. I found that you have a high spirit, which really surprised me."

If someone else would answer that he is not capable of being a saint, but when he came to Qin Chuan, he didn't want to do it.As if he could do it if he wanted to.

Such an inadvertent display of spirit made Ti Xue unbelievable.

At most, he thought that behind Qin Chuan, there was an immeasurable hermit Confucian who taught him what he had learned all his life.But can this mentality be trained?
Just like them, scholar-bureaucrats always want to persuade the emperor, and they have to pretend that there are hundreds of millions of people in the world.

That is only the emperor is qualified to be such a person.

For the emperor, accepting the filth of the country and the ominousness of the country is something that can't be imagined.

Others are not qualified to do it.

Qin Chuan's tone was a bit like that of the emperor. The affairs of the world are not about whether you can, but whether you want to or not.

Qin Chuan also realized that he had vented a little bit.He didn't have much to worry about, the big deal was to stop pretending and have a showdown.There is no place to stay here, but there is always a place to stay.

Kyushu is all over the world, the world is huge, there will always be a place for him and Ying Ning to shelter, and when they have developed for dozens or hundreds of years, the problems they encounter will always be solved with absolute strength.

If dozens or hundreds of years are not enough, then add another 100 or 200 years.

The most indispensable thing for longevity species is time.

Of course, things obviously didn't go this far.

The current environment is very good, Qin Chuan will definitely not change if he can.

The purpose of showing his talent and learning is to attract Ti Xue's attention. In this way, with Ti Xue's deterrent to others, Qin Chuan can save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Qin Chuan: "Didn't the Great Master hear that you can be strong without desire."

Tixue: "That's right, but don't give up on the imperial examination, it will save you a lot of trouble. Of course, the journey to become a great Confucianist and sage has nothing to do with the imperial examination. Even the awe-inspiring righteousness that fears ghosts and gods is not enough for a great Confucian who aspires to become a saint." It is optional. After I leave office, you can devote yourself to learning. If you are selected, I will recommend you to go to the academy. You must not refuse this matter. There are three floors of attics in the academy, which are all-inclusive. You go Definitely love it."
