Taoist temple that will cross

Chapter 88
Seeing this, Ying Zheng put the charm on his smooth forehead, but within two breaths, the spell fell off, and Ying Zheng's appearance changed slightly.

"It's enough to deal with unfamiliar people."

Cao Yi took a closer look and nodded in satisfaction.

This face-changing talisman was read through the first volume of the Encyclopedia of Spells in the spare time of teaching the scriptures to the twelve disciples in the past few days, and I copied it several times, but I didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

"His Majesty"

Li Si opened the curtain of the car, and when he saw Cao Yi and Ying Zheng, he was stunned for a few moments before he realized: "Master Dao, why did you and His Majesty's faces change? Si almost mistook you for someone else."

Cao Yi raised his hand and pasted the remaining 'Changing Face' talisman on Li Si's forehead, and Li Si also changed in a blink of an eye.

"See for yourself"

Cao Yi picked up a bronze mirror in the corner of the carriage and handed it to Li Si.

Li Si took it in confusion, looked at it, and a look of surprise appeared on his face: "This is really Si"

"It's all fake." Cao Yi smiled and said, "When you go in, don't mention the word Your Majesty, and don't call yourself Si, so as not to reveal your identity."

Li Si thought for a while and said, "In this way, the name will not be changed. After entering, Si will call himself Cao Si."

Cao Si!The name is okay.

Cao Yi looked at Ying Zheng.

"My name is Cao Zheng"

Ying Zheng followed Li Si's lead.

All surnamed Cao, what is this?Cao Yi couldn't help laughing.

"get off"

Ying Zheng got off the carriage first.

Cao Yi then got out of the car.

A group of three entered the Qufu Academy without hindrance.Along the gravel path, through a piece of azure woods, came to a courtyard-style three-storey building called "School Palace". The first floor was already full of people, many of whom could only stand.In the middle is a large wooden platform, on which sit a dozen or so plainly dressed old men.

“Not many people above”

Li Si pointed to the second and third floors.

Cao Yi shook his head: "Just stand here"

Li Si turned his head and saw that His Majesty the Emperor had not expressed any objection, so he said nothing more.

A quarter of an hour passed.

Cao Yi suddenly felt unwell, so he looked inside and saw that the five-element aura in his dantian was constantly floating up and down.

"Go out for a while"

Cao Yi left the sentence, walked out of the academy, walked through a dense grove, and came to a small lake with quiet water surface and covered by huge rocks, sat cross-legged on the rock, and performed the "Gold Liquid Returning Alchemy Method", suppressing the five elements in his body The aura, unexpectedly backfired, and the aura of the five elements became even more irritating.He stopped and read the scriptures silently for a while before he calmed down.

Running the "Golden Liquid Returning Alchemy" again, an unexpected thing happened. One or two meters away from the water, crystal water droplets floated one after another. The water droplets accidentally collided with each other, and immediately fell to the water surface, splashing a Invisible splashes.

"There is such a thing"

Cao Yi's spirit relaxed, and all the water droplets fell on the water surface, splashing countless small splashes.

Cao Yi tried to continue mobilizing the spirit energy of the five elements, but the scene just now did not reappear.

"strangeness"

Cao Yi tried twice more, still the same.

Shaking his head, he got up and went back. After walking a few steps, a sound of footsteps came from the woods opposite the small lake.

Turned around and looked, but nothing happened.

"It always feels like something big is going to happen today"

Cao Yi said something to himself, and stepped back.

Back to the academy.

Seeing Ying Zheng and Li Si's puzzled faces, Cao Yi just smiled.

After [-] breaths of time, an old man stood up among the dozen or so old people on the stage. This old man was in his fifties, with a red face: "From now on, the old man Fu Nian will be in charge of the Qufu Academy."

"Congratulations to Master"

There were neat voices at the scene, as if everyone knew about it.

Cao Yi looked around and found a very interesting thing. The first floor and the third floor congratulated and handed over, but the second floor was silent.

"On the second floor are the disciples of the Legalist School and the Mohist School. There was a conflict just a few days ago..."

Li Si whispered.

The more Cao Yi heard, the more surprised he was. A few days ago, disciples of Legalism, Mohism, and Confucianism fought in Qufu City. Because it was too fierce, they finally fought. With 40 Confucians, they defeated 50 Legalists and five Mohists. Five more people from the Mo family came, and all the Fa and Mo families had to lie down.The gentle and elegant Confucianism can be so fierce.

"look"

Li Si pointed.

Cao Yicai noticed that many of the students were wearing short weapons, which were hidden between the loose clothes, and would only be exposed accidentally.

Fu Nian's voice came from the platform: "Today's debate is not only a three-yearly debate among a hundred schools of thought, but also an unfinished debate among the three schools of Qufu City a few days ago. I am in charge of the Qufu Academy, and today I am willing to accept the two family, and the challenges of each family.”

As soon as the voice fell, there was a buzzing sound from the second floor, and soon there was a sound of going downstairs.

Needless to say, people from the French and Mexican families came down.

The ground floor gets even more crowded.

Cao Yi had to retreat with Li Si and Ying Zhengchao.

On the stage, Fu Nian knelt down again, cupped his hands and said: "Confucianism has been established for hundreds of years, and it generally advocates that everything is known to the world. , can hit the nail on the head."

Someone in the crowd cupped their hands and said, "I'm from the Yang Zhu School."

There was a buzzing sound.

Cao Yi listened for a while before he realized why.

Back then, Yang Zhu, the founder of the school of Yang Zhu, did not provoke Confucianism, but because of the conflict between his core ideas and Confucianism, he was scolded by Mencius, the great Confucianist at that time, and the two families became enmity.

On the stage, Fu Nian remained motionless: "Please speak"

The man cleared his throat and said, "May I ask Master, what is the most important and what is the least of all things in the world?"

The hum of the scene grew louder.

Cao Yi didn't need to listen to others this time to know why. In today's world, when the government is in power and the Legalists are the ideology of governing the country, what he hates the most is Mencius's idea that the people are more important than the emperor.

As a great contemporary Confucian, Fu Nian naturally would not say anything that conflicted with the sage Mencius, and immediately said in a deep voice: "The people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least."

The man cupped his hands and said nothing more.

All the Confucian disciples present said loudly: "The people are more important than the emperor!"

Cao Yi glanced at Yingzheng. His majesty, the emperor who regards the law as his life, did not change his expression.

At this time, someone in the legalist crowd asked: "May I ask the master, Qin, who valued legalism, ruled the world, and Qi, which valued Confucianism, Lu was destroyed one after another. Why?"

The buzzing sound at the scene was even louder than before, and many Confucian disciples put their hands on short weapons, as if they were ready to fight.

On the platform, Fu Nian was silent for a moment, and said: "The Legalists can conquer the world, but they cannot rule the world for a long time. As we all know, the most rigid is easy to break, and the tightest will be broken. The same is true for people. The Legalists are too strong. Sooner or later, the people of the world will not Bear."

The Legalist disciple who asked the question cupped his hands.

The Confucian scholars present said in unison: "Cai!"

"Cao Si, you go up"

Cao Yi heard Ying Zheng's voice.

Then I saw Li Si squeezed out of the crowd, walked from seat to seat, walked towards the stage, and said as he walked, "Since it is a debate, there is a reason for you to sit on top and I to stand below."
