"Old man, school has just started and I don't have any classes. Why did you ask me to come over?"
To the east of Taixue Palace, Li Ziye was summoned by the Confucian leader. He sat in a ridge in the field, pulled out a radish in the garden, washed it, and ate it while talking.
"causal talk."
Kong Qiu sat down opposite the young man in front of him and said with a smile, "How is the matter between your eldest sister and Wangyu?"
"not so good."
Li Ziye chewed the radish and said, "I asked Sister Youwei, but I didn't find anything. For things like fate, just let it take its course, don't force it."
"That's right, I can't force it." Confucius said with a smile.
"Old man, why are you so concerned about this matter?" Li Ziye asked suspiciously.
"Can you not worry about your children?"
Confucius smiled and said, "It just so happens that your eldest sister is not betrothed to anyone else. She is a talented man and a beautiful woman, which is quite good."
"There's no point worrying about this."
Li Ziye responded while chewing a carrot, "Old Li has long wanted to find a good marriage for Sister Youwei, but he hasn't found one yet. Old man, please don't worry about it. Things between men and women cannot be forced. "
"Haha, yes, just let it happen."
Confucius laughed loudly and said, "What about you, do you have a girl you like? I heard that you have been very lucky recently, and a girl has come to you."
"You mean Zhu Zhu?"
Hearing this, Li Ziye felt dizzy and said, "Zhu Zhu is indeed a good girl, but this happened too suddenly, and I can't accept it."
"You'll get used to it gradually."
Confucius smiled and said, "Okay, let's stop chatting. Let's talk about something serious. Have you heard about Mobei?"
"Are you talking about the eight tribes in Mobei sending troops to suppress the monsters?" Li Ziye asked.
"Um."
Confucius nodded and said seriously, "They failed again."
"Expected."
Li Ziye said helplessly, "Those monsters are simply monsters. It is difficult for humans to fight against them."
"I plan to send Confucian disciples to the Eight Divisions of Mobei to help fend off those monsters. What do you think?" Confucius suggested.
"Let the Confucian disciples go to Mobei?"
Li Ziye looked stunned and said, "Old man, are you crazy? Are you asking them to die?"
"of course not."
Confucius shook his head and said with a smile, "Faru will also go with him. If I am not wrong, Tianyu Palace will also send people there by then. In this way, won't the power to resist monsters be greater?"
"Although everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, this is all nonsense. If we send people there, it will be okay if we can really stop it. If we can't stop it, these disciples of the Confucian Sect will die in vain. Don't you feel sorry for me, old man? Well, these are all your disciples and grandsons." Li Ziye advised.
"Of course I feel distressed."
Confucius said softly, "But if you think about it carefully, what would the people of the Eight Tribes of Mobei do if they were forced by those monsters to have no way out?"
Li Ziye frowned slightly when he heard this. After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something and said in surprise, "Go south!"
"Yes, so if the Confucian sect can serve as an example for the people of the world and take the initiative to help Mobei resist the monsters, it will not only enhance the confidence of the eight tribes in Mobei to continue to resist the monsters, but also make them dare not risk the condemnation of the people of the world and lead troops Invade the Central Plains." Confucius said.
"That makes sense."
Li Ziye listened to the words of the old man in front of him and said with appreciation, "Sure enough, Jiang is still old and hot. When the time comes, they will work hard and we will win a reputation, which will be good."
"So, people still have to be sent."
Confucius smiled and said, "As long as we send people there, the Tianyu Palace, which prides itself on being bright, will definitely send people as well. Perhaps the Buddhists also want to join in the fun and go back and forth. In fact, the pressure shared by us Confucianists will not be too great. "
"Then send it."
Hearing Confucian Chief's explanation, Li Ziye said nonchalantly, "Since Confucian Chief you have already made a decision, and Fa Ru is here to take charge, why don't you come to me to discuss what to do?"
At this point, Li Ziye suddenly paused, looked at the old man in front of him, and said in disbelief, "You, you don't want me to go with you, do you?"
"Guessed it right."
Confucius nodded and said with a smile, "That's exactly what I mean. You have many ideas and are good at adapting to changes. It just makes up for the shortcomings of Confucian disciples who are too observant and don't know how to adapt."
"I dont go!"
Hearing this, Li Ziye stood up and said, "I'm so weak. If I go, I'm not going to die. If I don't go, I won't go even if I'm beaten to death."
"Don't worry, sit down and talk."
Kong Qiu stretched out his hand, pulled the young man in front of him back to sit down, and said with a kind smile, "Wangyu will also go with you. With him protecting you, what are you afraid of?"
"Then I won't go either."
Li Ziye shook his head vigorously and said, "Mobei is so chaotic and there are so many monsters. If Little Red Riding Hood doesn't have time to protect me, won't I become the monster's food? If I don't go, I won't say anything."
"It's not that dangerous."
Confucius advised earnestly, "The great righteousness of Confucianism, the Buddhist essence of Buddhism, and the divine light of Tianyu Palace are all the power of the Supreme Sun, which can restrain those monsters. With so many masters here, you are basically not needed." Contribute, and maybe when the time comes, you can just follow around and get some credit back."
"Old man."
Li Ziye looked at the old guy in front of him with contempt and said, "Do you think I'm stupid? I don't believe a single punctuation mark of what you said."
"Ah."
Kong Qiu chuckled lightly and said, "What if I tell you that if you go to Mobei, you will not only have the hope of finding the fourth Medicine King, but you will also be very likely to get enough cold dew of the polar night to successfully forge a sword?"
"real or fake?"
Li Ziye had a look of suspicion on his face and said, "You didn't fool me, old man. It's immoral for you to lie to a junior like me at your age!"
"of course not."
Confucius smiled and said, "When did I lie to you? Let's not mention the fourth medicine king for now, but let's talk about the cold dew at the extreme night. Unless you go to Mobei, when will you be able to collect enough demon blood to make a sword? "
"let me think again."
When Li Ziye heard this, a look of struggle appeared on his face.
The King of Medicine and the Cold Dew of the Extreme Night were all things he desperately wanted. If the old man hadn't lied to him, he could have taken a trip to Mobei.
Confucius was not in a hurry, and sat there with a smile on his face, waiting for the decision of the young man in front of him.
"Okay, when are you leaving?"
After a long time, Li Ziye made up his mind, raised his head and asked.
"A month later."
Confucius smiled and said, "At that time, the Fa-Confucianism Association will select the most outstanding disciples of the Confucian sect and go to Mobei together."
"Old man, is there really no danger?" Li Ziye asked still worried.
"There is a risk, but there is no danger." Confucius replied.
"I think I'm still too weak, old man, why don't you give me something to protect myself." Li Ziye said expectantly.
"You already have."
Confucius smiled and said, "I don't need to give you any more. Okay, go back. Don't keep Wangyu waiting."
"mean."
Li Ziye muttered, then stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and walked outside.
Outside the hospital, Bai Wangyu saw the young man walking out in front of him and smiled, "Agreed?"
"Do you know what the old man wants to do with me?" Li Ziye asked suspiciously.
"Um."
Bai Wangyu nodded and said with a smile, "The Master of Law and Confucianism has already told me. It seems that my guess is correct. Brother Li really agreed."
"I can't worry about you!"
Li Ziye patted the shoulder of Little Red Riding Hood in front of him and said righteously, "We are all brothers. You must protect me when the time comes!"
