Touring the Ming Dynasty

"At the beginning of this year, a meteor pierced the sky and fell to the east, and then a star brighter than the morning star appeared in the sky over the East China Sea. ten days) disappeared, but it has already aroused the interest of the old man... So I started to pay attention to the strange things in Jiangnan, so I knew your existence from the very beginning. I know everything you have experienced, although the old man is very Be optimistic about you, but you must not spread the fact that I accepted you as an apprentice, otherwise I will never admit it, and even kill you to silence it, do you understand?"

Duan Fei was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "The mentor has his own opinions, and this disciple respects the orders of the master, and will never tell anyone else."

"Yes." Wang Shouren said, "Do you know why I strictly forbid you to speak out?"

Duan Fei shook his head, Wang Shouren said: "This is because I am not going to teach you how to learn from the heart, nor do I want to teach you how to govern and be an official. I saw that you were very active in killing Japanese pirates, and you are looking for teachers everywhere to learn martial arts... What I hate the most are the traitors who seek glory, and the second is the Tatars and Japanese pirates who keep invading my land of Ming Dynasty. I intend to teach you my art of war, and then teach you the art of bow, horse and archery, as well as the martial arts you dream of. I hope you can succeed in your studies, and in the future you will be able to clear the country and kill all those enemies who are spying on me!"

Duan Fei felt that he was about to faint with happiness. To be honest, although Wang Shouren's mind science was famous, Duan Fei, who traveled from later generations, was not interested in it. But Wang Shouren was not only famous because of his mind science. Xinxue is not very famous, but his art of war, his archery is famous for a while, as for his martial arts, Duan Fei doesn't care much, Wang Shouren is a famous Confucian, what kind of martial arts can he teach him?

However, Wang Shouren's next actions and words made him even more unbelievable. He saw Wang Shouren took out an ingot of gold from his arms, and casually kneaded it like flour to make a little golden man. Wang Shouren threw the little golden man Going into Duan Fei's arms, he said: "For my teacher, I set three arrows against the Beijing army, captured King Ning on horseback, and lured Shark to death by myself. With real skills, do you think I am a scholar with no strength to restrain a chicken? I hang on the wall I'm afraid there are not many people in the world who can draw that bow."

Duan Fei caught the statuette, took it in his mouth and took a bite, it was real gold!It is unbelievable that the great Confucian Wang Shouren is both civil and military!

Wang Shouren shouted: "I just let you keep the next words in your heart. Fortunately, you don't have the habit of talking in your sleep, otherwise it will be difficult. You are not an ordinary person as a teacher. You have also handled several cases involving martial arts missions. You should I know that there is an organization in this world called the Demon Sect..."

"Teacher... are you a master of the Demon Sect?" Duan Fei opened his eyes wide in surprise, and the corners of his mouth were almost drooling. He was not very confident in the innate skills that Su Rong taught him. If he could learn some magical skills of the Demon Sect, hehe, Xiu Not to mention the rapid progress, there may even be many additional benefits, such as harvesting yin and replenishing yang... How many men who traveled to ancient times did not want to embrace three wives and four concubines?

Wang Shouren said: "Well, but when there is no one, you should call it the Holy Sect, or the Holy Sect of Light. Since the founding of the country by Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, it has been repeatedly suppressed. Disciple, but the guardian of the Holy Gate, whenever the Holy Gate declines, it is the responsibility of finding disciples to revive the Holy Gate, and you are the one I chose, now you know why I gave you a ban order?"

Duan Fei nodded in understanding. Duan Fei has also heard about the founding of the Ming Dynasty. It is said that Taizu was born in Mingjiao. And other sects, because they have been fighting against the imperial court, and their behavior is secretive, the believers are mixed, and their reputation is not very good.

After Duan Fei nodded, he hurriedly said: "Teacher, you know my temperament. I just want to live in peace and stability. It's okay to solve cases and beat Japanese pirates. Let me lead people to rebel... That's absolutely impossible."

"Who told you to do those things?" Wang Shouren glared at him, and said, "I took you as a disciple because I want you to be the guardian of this Holy Gate for me, and preserve the spirit and martial arts of the Holy Gate until needed." When it is passed down again or the Holy Gate is in decline, it is up to them to teach disciples secretly and let them become the masters of the Holy Gate, so what does it have to do with you?"

"I'm relieved." Duan Fei took a deep breath, and then said strangely: "Men, you are an important minister of Ming Dynasty, but you let those artificial courts who are affiliated with the Holy Gate rebel against you. Do you know why?"

Wang Shouren said approvingly: "I'm at ease if you can ask me that. You don't stick to etiquette and small details. This is what I like about you. I don't bother to take a look at those who talk about morality. You only see people who oppose Daming. and the harm of the common people, but did not see the benefits brought by the rebellion, in fact, you benefited from the rebellion of King Ning, don’t you have any ideas?”

Duan Fei let out a groan, and said: "The teacher is talking about the matter of me becoming a fifth-rank official, and the matter of intimidating Duke Huai to arrest the villains?"

"That's right, these are just two of the benefits. If there is a rebellion in a certain place, if it is not a natural disaster, it must be because of the rampant local bureaucrats and bullies, and the people are in dire straits. If they are allowed to develop naturally, the chaos will be out of control. The White Lotus Sect , Maitreya Sect these people wait for the opportunity, looking for opportunities everywhere to spread the congregation to stir up rebellion, so that the rebellion can break out in advance, and at this time the matter has not developed to the point of being out of control, it is much easier to suppress the rebellion, such as King Ning During the chaos, there were Bailian disciples in Qingzhou, Shandong Province who took the opportunity to rebel, but they did not succeed, and there were only a few followers, and they were wiped out by local officers and soldiers within a day."

Duan Fei nodded again and again, and said, "I understand the truth, but... what if the court mishandles the situation and even overthrows the court?"

Wang Shouren said: "There is a reason for the growth, decline and prosperity of all things. If the imperial court is so violent that it can't even extinguish this small fire, but instead let it burn into a monstrous fire, such an imperial court will continue to harm the people. Everything has been demolished and rebuilt, and the responsibility of the Dharma King is to pass on the teachings and miraculous powers, and do the rest if you can, and let them develop what you can’t do.”

Duan Fei nodded, but he didn't take it seriously, Wang Shouren said, "Don't interrupt, I'll argue with you when I have time, just now I talked about the benefits of rebellion, but most of the local officials who rebelled will have to be punished. one
