Chapter 99: The skills taught should be for human beings (third update)
Zuo Chen only invited a few people by name during this lecture.
Including Xiao Changcheng, Coach Guo, Monk, Caiyi, and three characters carefully selected by Zuo Chen.
They are a scholar in the village, an old farmer, and the cavalry manager in Xuzhou city.
The scholar didn’t have much ability, but he was always busy helping others. It is said that he did well in the exams back then. Before the famine, King Kang wanted to take him to Xuzhou City with him, but he felt that something was wrong. , he did not leave with the horse. Later, after the famine broke out, he wandered around for a while. Fortunately, he came to the monk's village and survived.
The old farmer came to the village later. After being deserted in Xuzhou, he guarded the one-third acre of land in his village. With good luck, he met a few Jianghu people and managed to survive with a few tricks. , barely able to survive by growing grain.
After seeing Mai Hai, he followed him with hundreds of people from his village, and is now farming the land with a large force outside.
The cavalry general is the person who rebelled with Coach Guo. He is taciturn and dull. He doesn't talk much on weekdays. If he hadn't followed the coach this time and fought out, none of the coach's men would have known about him. Jumped backwards.
These seven people naturally agreed after receiving the invitation. Although half of them had never seen Zuo Chen take action, it had little impact.
Seeing means you have never seen it, but hearing it means you have heard it.
There is such a master who is willing to teach me some Taoism. How can I not do this kind of pie-in-the-sky good thing?
Even Xiao Changcheng and the others in Xuzhou City rode fast horses to the monk's village.
When they arrived at the main entrance of the village, Coach Guo and the cavalry manager saw the high outer wall at a glance.
The place where the monk is located is far from being comparable to an ordinary village. A large number of people are cultivating and farming nearby, and it is very lively.
At a glance, it is actually larger than the farmland outside Xuzhou City.
In time, this may become the second central city in Xuzhou.
"There is still a shortage of food in the village now, and things planted in the ground still take a while to grow." After Xiao Changcheng took a look at the village, he sighed and then looked towards Guo The coach turned around.
Coach Guo immediately reacted.
"Brother Xiao, don't worry. Now that the dog Kang Wang has been killed, it is absolutely impossible for the people to starve again. After listening to the lecture, I will prepare a few more carriages when I go back and let them bring the meat. "
Hearing this, Xiao Changcheng smiled: "It's really troublesome, coach."
After these polite words, the attention of instructor Guo and the cavalry manager couldn't help but be drawn in the direction of the village gate.
There are two three-meter-tall golden warriors over there, holding weapons in their hands, like two stone sculptures, standing at the gate of the village.
Just looking at their faces, they look so tight!
Although they looked fierce, there were many children playing around at their feet. Some of the brave ones even climbed on top of the golden warrior, clasping their arms with both hands and wandering around. The golden warrior was not annoyed at all. They even carefully protect the children with their palms to prevent them from falling.
The cavalry manager stared at the two generals twice and remained silent for a while:
"I sent out a group of iron cavalry before, but half of them were defeated. After I came back, I heard them say that they were defeated by two fierce men. Now it seems...it is indeed impressive."
"This is The Taoist priest’s work was to protect the village from being invaded,” Xiao Changcheng said.
The cavalry leader stopped talking.
The three of them entered the village and walked along the main road. In the picture, many villagers greeted Xiao Changcheng and looked at Coach Guo and the cavalry manager with doubts, curiosity, and a bit of vigilance.
When the three of them arrived at the center of the village, others had been waiting here for a long time.
This is the monk's big temple. Now it has been converted into a big pavilion by the people in the village.
The monk's golden Buddha is in the middle of a small lake on the mountainside. Lotus flowers grow in the small lake, and the huge lotus leaves are like futons. Several vermilion pillars were built symmetrically around the small lake, and a canopy was built on top to protect them from rain.
Some craftsmen hung some wind chimes on the shed cover. Occasionally, the breeze blows, and the bells ring.
The setting sun is shining down, and the brightness is eye-catching.
At this moment, Zuo Chen was sitting on a lotus leaf next to the big Buddha in the center of the lake, and in the palm of the big Buddha's hand, a monk wrapped in gold was standing there, talking and laughing with Zuo Chen.
On the lotus leaf on the other side, Cai Yi seemed to be very sleepy, lying on the lotus leaf and falling asleep, drifting back and forth with the wind.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zuo Chen pushed his hand gently, and a few leaves floated directly to the lake. Caiyi's snot bubbles from her sleep also exploded, and she woke up in a daze. I came over, obviously still a little sleepy.
The people who were called looked at the lotus leaves floating on the lake, and for a moment they were a little afraid to move.
Under normal circumstances, if you step on lotus leaves into the lake, you will sink directly.
In the end, Xiao Changcheng was the first to stretch out his foot and step on the lotus leaf.
He just felt like walking on flat ground, soft and very comfortable, so he simply sat down cross-legged and let the wind blow him to Zuo Chen's vicinity.
Seeing that Xiao Changcheng was fine, the others also got on the lotus leaf and drifted to Zuo Chen's side.
I was still a little nervous, but seeing the magic of this lotus leaf, I was only filled with surprise.
I just feel that the Taoist priest is really just like the rumors, and he has thousands of wonderful methods.
Looking around, Zuo Chen nodded and said:
"Everyone, now that King Kang is dead, Xuzhou is in ruins and waiting for prosperity. I have no intention of competing in the world, and I cannot live in Xuzhou for a long time. It depends on a few people to save and govern the people.
"Fortunately, I have learned some great knowledge. If used properly, it will be enough for the people to live in peace and contentment.
“This is not a method of cultivation, but a simple technique to benefit the people.
“I hope you will listen carefully to what I am saying next. If it is difficult to digest, the lotus leaf will Send everyone to the lake. ”
After saying that, Zuo Chen slowly opened his mouth and talked about the ideas that he had heard a while ago and which are still impressive to this day.
"...The political power in this world comes from the people, and only by benefiting the people can we benefit the world. But we must not benefit the people without a way. If we only listen to public opinion in everything, we will be hijacked by public opinion. We should have the guidance of a star like a star to lead the people forward... …”
“…too much Food, only when you are full can you think about everything. This is what the monk is doing, and it is a top priority. Some people who are good at farming should be allocated to assist the monk. If it can be done, the foundation of the world can be built..."
"... …Guangli Education, the more people who are literate, the more The more talented people can be produced, this is a long-term solution, and a large number of talented people need to be invested as teachers. Many scholars are self-reliant and need to do more psychological construction..." "...the techniques and techniques should also be used. Share more. Those who need corpses and those who want to harm or kill people should not enter. The door is simple and easy to understand. You do this first, and I will also take some time to study..."
Zuo Chen's voice sounded throughout the pavilion, but it didn't sound like it. The sky is full of strange phenomena when teaching the Fa in other places.
What he said, recited, and taught to others did not involve wonderful magical powers or mysterious Taoist scriptures.
But as long as you listen to it, you will know how important what Zuo Chen said is.
The lecture was slow, the lotus leaves moved with the wind, and after a while, shadows were sent out one after another.
Zuo Chen did not directly recite the memory in his mind as per Xuanke, but modified it and made adjustments to better suit this era.
But even so, many people on the lake were still sent out one after another.
First it was the cavalry manager, then the old farmer, and then Coach Guo.
After Coach Guo came out, he felt a little regretful, but when he saw the cavalry manager, he couldn't help but smile.
"Old Li! You are the first one to be sent out!"
"...It's not like I don't know that I get dizzy when I read a book." The cavalry manager sighed: "More What's more, the Taoist priest said these things."
After a pause, he said: "The Taoist priest said he was preaching on the Taoist scriptures, but I feel that what he talked about... was better than all the scriptures I have read. All high.”
"This is a way to govern the world." Coach Guo nodded, with a slight smile on his face: "But if the Taoist priests say these things, if they are heard by today's feudal kings... hmph, they will destroy those feudal kings. Live and die!"
"Not necessarily King Xuan. If I haven't seen the Taoist priest, I will definitely ride to King Xuan."
"You are a prodigal. Coach Guo laughed and cursed: "I think you are greedy for other people's beauty."
Looking into the depths of the pavilion, the scholar was obviously a little confused, but he pinched his arm hard with his hands. Meat, imitating cantilever thorns.
Xiao Changcheng is in relatively good condition and looks like he can last a long time.
Without saying a word, Caiyi took out a small notebook and started jotting it down.
Only the monk still talked with Zuo Chen from time to time, and he obviously learned the fastest and most thoroughly.
"Lao Guo, how far can we go?"
The cavalry manager suddenly asked.
“How far do you want to go? How far do you want to go?” Coach Guo snorted: “I said we can go to the world where there is peace and the people have no worries. We can go in all directions from Xuzhou, all the way to Kyoto.”
"Then I'm afraid many people will die along the way, and they will never return."
"Then there will be no return."
...
Speaking of "Dharma" "It lasted two days.
Instructor Guo and the cavalry manager rode back to Xuzhou City. They still had some people to deal with and could not stay in the village forever.
After the old farmer came out, he found a few craftsmen and planned to build more private schools to teach new-born children to read and read.
The scholar came out on the first night. He had a headache from hearing it. He found a room and fell asleep deeply. He had a long dream in which he began to digest the knowledge.
Xiao Changcheng came out at noon the next day, found a hillside and sat alone, looking down at the whole village, as if thinking about what it would be like in the future.
Not long after Xiao Changcheng, Caiyi finally couldn't hold on any longer. She lay on the lotus leaf and fell asleep, drooling again.
Only the monk heard the last moment, and even after Zuo Chen finished speaking, he was still a little unfinished.
"Taoist Master, what you said is very good. But I feel like there are some things that you didn't explain completely." The monk asked Zuo Chen with some doubts.
"Monk, although I have the rest of the content, it is really not suitable for the current situation of the beams. Applying it mechanically will only be too hasty. Wait for me to walk among the beams first, and wait for me When I come back, I will only tell you everything that happened next."
Zuo Chen laughed dumbly.
He really didn’t expect that the monk actually heard the end and digested a lot.
Getting up from the lotus leaf, he saw Caiyi sleeping happily, so he was not in a hurry to wake her up.
Floating away from the pavilion, he reached the slope in a few steps and stood next to Xiao Changcheng.
When Xiao Changcheng saw Zuo Chen in a panic, he wanted to stand up and salute him, but Zuo Chen just waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to be nervous.
The two of them looked at the village together. After the lecture, it was getting late again, and the half-hanging sunlight fell on the entire village, dyeing the countryside among the farmers with a layer of darkness. A hint of orange.
There are children, old people, and farmers in the fields.
Although it is sunset, I feel full of vitality.
"These things I teach you cannot be separated from others, you must keep this in mind."
Xiao Changcheng nodded vigorously and looked at Zuo Chen:
"Come on, Taoist Priest , can’t you stay in Xuzhou?”
“I still have something to do,” Zuo Chen said with a smile.
Xiao Changcheng didn't know what Zuo Chen was talking about.
He just felt that Zuo Chen seemed to be seeing extremely far at this moment.
