After thousands of years of changes in the Shang Dynasty, the power of the Shang emperor fell away, and Chao Ge gradually lost his political status.
On the streets, the flow of people was bleak. Even though it had lasted ten thousand years, it was still not as good as when the Shang Dynasty was in its heyday.
"Did you hear that?"
"Zigong paid a lot of money to redeem the slaves of Lu who were abroad. The king wanted to give Zigong a reward, but Zigong didn't accept it."
"You are truly noble and upright, a role model for our generation!"
"It's extreme, it's extreme."
Zhong You followed Confucius with approval on his face, "I never thought that Zigong was such a kind-hearted rich man. Teacher, let's..."
boom!
Zhong You was thinking and bumped into Confucius' De's back.
Then he saw that the teacher was gnashing his teeth, with boundless anger on his face.
"Teacher, is there a kidney problem?"
Confucius pressed his left hand on his sword, his whole body filled with murderous aura, "I wanted to convince others with my virtue today!"
"Zhong You, prepare to fight!"
"Okay, teacher!"
Zhong You was not as virtuous and talented as his teacher, so he had to make a small saw. In the middle of the saw was a human character, called principle.
"Follow me as a teacher!"
Confucius led Zhong You and rushed towards Duanmu Mansion.
None of the servants I met were enemies of Confucius and Qiu Yihe.
Zigong walked out of the mansion with confusion on his face, "What happened?"
"Two strong men, why did you beat my slave so violently?"
"Hit the slave? The one I want to beat today is you!"
"Zhong Yuan, convince people with reason!"
"is teacher!"
Zhong You easily subdued Zigong with three strokes, five divided by two, and put the saw on Zigong's head.
"Are you convinced?"
"Strong man, strong man, I surrender."
The fighting in Duanmu Mansion soon alerted the Chaoge defenders.
All the people gathered in front of the mansion, pointing and pointing.
"Is Zigong a good person?"
"I don't know where the evil thieves came from to be so barbaric?"
Confucius swung his sword and put it on Zigong's neck.
"Zigong, do you know you are wrong?"
Zigong was about to cry, "What's wrong with me?"
"You dare to be so harsh?" Zhong You pressed the saw deeply, and tooth-like blood oozed out.
"You have harmed the people of Lu and deserve to die!"
Zigong: "??"
"Forget it, I'll make sure you die today."
"Did you spend a lot of money to redeem the slaves of Lu?"
"Yes, isn't this a good thing?"
"Have you refused the reward from the king?"
"Yeah, I'm not interested in money. I never know what the use of asking for so much money is."
"No one in Lu's country is as wealthy as yours. If you redeem slaves from abroad, your normal life will not be affected if you don't receive rewards. What about other families?"
"Their family is not rich. If they save their compatriots and don't receive a reward, their family members will risk starving to death. If they receive a reward, they are afraid of being accused of being mercenary. Do you think they will save their compatriots who have become slaves when they encounter them abroad in the future? "
Zigong looked stunned, "Ah this?"
"Probably so."
The people around him lowered their heads silently.
Song Sanwei was one of the common people. He redeemed a slave a few days ago and came back to collect the reward. His spine was bent.
"Zi Gong doesn't want any money, what money do you want?"
"A mercenary guy!"
"The intention to save people is not pure!"
Song Sanwei was so ashamed that he silently returned the reward.
But the family is too poor to open the pot.
Song Sanwei vowed from the bottom of his heart that he would never redeem anyone randomly again.
And Song Sanwei is just a microcosm.
In the past half month, the number of slaves rescued from Lu State has dropped by at least 60%.
No one wants to do thankless things.
Be someone else and starve yourself to death.
Confucius shook his head indifferently, "No!"
"Human nature is all selfish, and we will not sacrifice ourselves to save others."
"You acted only out of concern for your own reputation and ignored the overall situation, causing countless slaves to be unable to return to the country. Are you guilty?"
Zi Gong's face showed shame, "I...I was wrong."
"Mr. De's words today made me suddenly enlightened. Fang felt that he had done such a stupid thing."
"I'm so damned good!"
Confucius took back his sword and nodded knowingly, "If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good."
"Zhongyou, let's go."
Zhong You suddenly became anxious and said weakly: "Teacher, we have no money."
"Walk!"
Zhong You had no choice but to follow Confucius.
Take one step, take two steps.
Before he took the third step, he heard a shout from behind, "Sir, please stay."
"I learned a lot from what you said today."
"If you don't give up, sir, Zigong is willing to worship you as your teacher."
The corners of Confucius' lips raised slightly, "Isn't this right? Do you have the tuition fees for traveling around the world?"
Confucius took Zhong You to live in Duanmu Mansion for half a month.
Half a month later, I set off again to travel around the country.
But this time, it became three people.
Zigong was willing to travel around the world with his teacher and gain knowledge.
A luxurious carriage drove out of Chaoge City. There were some gold, silver and copper in the car (the default currency is gold, silver and copper).
Almost luxurious.
Two and a half years later.
When Confucius arrived in Qin, he was dressed in rich clothes, with a Xingting sword on his waist, and his muscles were strong.
Behind him, a group of strong men followed.
There are seventy-two hall masters and three thousand great disciples.
Confucius said: "Isn't it true that a person who doesn't know something and is not upset is also a gentleman?"
Some people don't know my name, but before I get angry, I'm already very gentlemanly.
Confucius said: "If a gentleman is not serious, he will not have authority."
A gentleman must act harshly, otherwise he will not be able to establish prestige!
Confucius said: "When three people are walking together, they must have me as their teacher."
There are three people, and as long as one of them is me, our combat strength is equivalent to that of a division.
Confucius said: "..."
The seventy-two masters and three thousand disciples followed Confucius for two and a half years. They compiled what the teacher did and said and included it in "The Collection of Fearful Sons"
Qin, located in the west of Kyushu, was a poor place. Although it was the overlord, it was the weakest.
Confucius traveled to Qin.
And when Confucius was mourning for his mother.
Thirty miles away from Chaoge City, there is a mountain named Yunmeng Mountain.
There are two peaks in Yunmeng Mountain, named Jianxiu Peak and Longwang Peak.
There is a natural cave between the two peaks, where a child was conceived.
"Consult in yin, achieve in yang, control vertically and horizontally, only I can control everything!"
When Zongheng was born, he accepted several disciples and taught them the art of war and the strategies of governing the country. After they completed their studies, they went to serve in the State of Qin.
same time.
A family named Mo was born on the land of Nine Provinces of the human race.
The Mohist family loves each other and benefits each other.
All human beings are created equal, who dares to be superior?
Mohism was in line with what the people wanted, and became popular in a short period of time, becoming a prominent school and leading the way.
Only then did the rulers of various countries begin to reuse laws, especially the State of Qin, which formulated relatively complete Qin laws.
At the bottom of the common people, two bald donkeys in monk robes were preaching the theory of reincarnation.
"If you join my Buddhist family, you can transcend the sea of suffering."
"If you suffer in this life, you will suffer even more in the next life. Why not join my Buddhist family!"
The Taoist Li Er is still traveling around the world, proving that Taoism follows nature.
Confucius continued to convince people with virtue and reason.
Between the various vassal states, killings continued, and bloodshed and sacrifices continued.
This is the worst of times.
At the same time, this is also the best time.
Hundreds of schools of thought, like brilliant stars, bloom across the land of Kyushu, adding a brilliant color to the civilization of the Xuanhuang race.
Qin State, Xianyang.
A young man dressed in black stood quietly in the small courtyard, feeling the breeze blowing. His eyes were covered with a layer of mysterious light, staring at the sky and the earth, as if he could see through the changes in luck in the world of great strife.
"Taoist? Mohist? Legalist? Yin Yang strategist? Gone?"
"I declare, Bao Bao, that I am a scientist, and my teachings are: study of things to gain knowledge, and the unity of knowledge and action."
“Everything must be done scientifically!”
