Time passed quickly as the three of them chatted. Xun Yu looked up at the sky and stood up and said: "General Qin, Mr. Lu is preaching today, and we can't delay! We should leave!" Lu Zhi and others The great Confucian preaching is a compulsory course for studying scriptures. Qin Ge did not dare to delay. He stood up and said to Xun Chen that if he liked it, he could move here and they would study scriptures together. After hearing this, Xun Chen went home happily and moved his bed. Then he shook his head with a wry smile and led Qin Ge to the academy hosted by Lu Zhi.
Qin Ge and Xun Yu came to the Archery Academy hosted by Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi was in charge of the archery and royal arts in the six palaces. To be precise, he was in charge of the martial arts training! Qin Ge and Xun Yu came to a school field in the academy. Lu Zhi was wearing a warrior uniform, riding a horse with a bow and an arrow, and was shooting at the target.
Xun Yu and Xun Yu stood outside the school grounds, watching Lu Zhizheng teach his students the art of archery. Xun Yu chuckled and said, "I wonder if General Qin has discovered the difference between your master's archery and that of normal warriors!" Qin Ge looked at it As Lu Zhi rode his horse back and forth, each arrow hit the bull's-eye of a special jade target. Lu Zhi's shooting didn't seem to have any abnormalities. What surprised Qin Ge the most was the students who were shooting. Some people in the middle couldn't even draw the bow string, and some people fell off their horses while shooting arrows. They were so embarrassed.
Qin Ge frowned and said: "Although these noble men are not diligent in their limbs and do not distinguish between grains and grains, they have grown up with fine clothes and fine food, and their bodies are much stronger than those of ordinary people. They have almost reached the strength of cattle for physical training. With their The quality can’t be so bad!”
Xun Yu chuckled and said: "This is because what they practice is the Confucian way of controlling archery. Confucianism focuses on nourishing Qi. If there is no Qi in the heart, you will not be able to control archery. Even if you are strong and possess the unique knowledge of your family, you will not be able to control archery." How about it? Mr. Lu is going to teach you the art of nourishing Qi from the art of archery. From today on, you will take turns receiving the words and deeds of the great scholars from various schools every day. Of course, I will also follow you to get the honor!" It is very rare for great scholars to give public lectures. It is rare, especially this kind of one-on-one teaching by the great Confucians from various schools. Only the Emperor Xiudian enjoys this kind of treatment. Xun Yu was originally the companion of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, but he has never seen him since he took office. The emperor edited the canons, so he had not participated in the canon revision at all since he took office. He was only responsible for sorting out the slips in Luoyang. Now with Qin Ge, he can finally get back to his own job.
Qin Ge watched Lu Zhi's every move very carefully, but he couldn't grasp the true meaning. But as for what it was, he couldn't explain it. Although Zhang Jiao had heard about Confucianism, as a member of a poor family, he had little knowledge of the art of nourishing qi. Qin Ge suddenly became a little nervous, because he knew that the art of nourishing qi was a crucial step in completing the cultivation of scriptures. However, Xiu Dian, who deceived the emperor by deceiving criminals, will be executed by the nine tribes. This is no joke! He did not hesitate to put down his body to imitate Xun Yu, all in order to successfully pass the canon.
Xun Yu and Qin Ge lived together for many days, and naturally felt Qin Ge's inner thoughts and comforted him: "General Qin, don't worry too much, Qi is conceived by a person's character, and it has always been hidden deep in his heart. Every day Everyone has Qi, but they are all different. Although Qi is hidden in the chest and abdomen, it is evolved from everything in the world. Everything you say and do, study and work, even sleep and eat is all about nourishing Qi!" Qin Ge was even more confused after hearing this water.
Xun Yu laughed and said: "Does General Qin know why he trained you to cultivate your qi and learn archery as the first among the six arts of a gentleman? Because gentlemen, considering that you were born in martial arts, martial arts should be more suitable for you to cultivate your qi!" Qin Ge thought to himself, Zhu Juan was in charge of etiquette, and Huangfu Song was in charge of economics. Both of them had crossed paths with Qin Ge, but Qin Ge had never met Lu Zhi. When he led his army to Jizhou when he attacked the base camp of the Yellow Turban bandits that day, Lu Zhi Because he was impolite while suppressing bandits, he was escorted back to Beijing for trial, and his command was seized by Dong Zhuo.
Qin Ge knelt on the ground with Xun Yu and was about to listen. At this time, a large number of scholars came from the side. It turned out to be Wei Zhongdao leading hundreds of disciples from the Confucianism and Taoism Academy. After hearing the news, he knelt down and cried bitterly. , accusing Lu Zhi of Qin Ge's misdeeds, hoping that Lu Zhi can drive Qin Ge out and not tarnish the sanctity of Confucianism.
Qin Ge saw that Lu Zhi's face was livid. He stood up and was about to leave voluntarily, but was pulled down by Xun Yu.
"You bastards! How dare you interrupt my class, come here!" As Lu Zhi shouted, a group of strong soldiers walked out from all directions. Lu Zhi shouted: "Those who violate the etiquette of the academy and interfere with the class will be killed." All the students pressed it down, ten strokes on the spine of the staff!" The elegant scholars were all tender-skinned gentlemen. When they heard that they were asked to stroke the spine of the staff ten times, they were frightened. Some were so frightened that they burst into tears. Lu Zhi turned pale and ignored him. And a group of guards led these elegant and elegant people to pull them down and punish them with sticks.
Lu Zhi glanced at Qin Ge, who was sitting in the corner, and continued to teach. After about an hour, Lu Zhi finished teaching. Qin Ge seemed to have realized something in his heart while listening to Lu Zhi's instructions and explanations.
During the break between classes, when Lu Zhi was resting, Xun Yu took Qin Ge over to see Lu Zhi. This was Qin Ge’s first contact with Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi’s face was thin, as sharp as a knife, and his skin was a little dark. Lu Zhi was the most famous. There should be two disciples of Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan. Lu Zhi taught the way of martial arts, so many generals who were born in the gentry were almost his disciples.
After Qin Ge finished his salute, Lu Zhi was a little surprised, because everyone said that Qin Ge was a reckless and vulgar person, and today in class, he only had half an hour of class, and saw Qin Ge listening, so It lasted for an hour, and Qin Ge followed Xun Yu and listened respectfully, without showing any signs of irritation. Lu Zhi was very satisfied with Qin Ge's attitude towards studying. Confucianism often says that teaching students in accordance with their aptitude is not afraid of poor talent, but of bad attitude.
"I heard that you made a big fuss in Luoshui River for the sake of publicity!" Lu Zhi's face was livid and expressionless when he spoke. Lu Zhi's strict reputation was well-known in the Confucian and Taoist academy. Even Xun Yu felt a little apprehensive when facing him. anxious.
Qin Ge was a little confused by what Lu Zhi said, and clasped his fists and said: "The students did end the debate in excitement, but they did not attack any celebrities! As the saying goes, 'a father will disgrace his son,' and Mr. Zhu is not only the student's mentor , I am also very kind to my students, if I just watch with cold eyes, I am no different from an animal!"
After hearing this, Lu Zhi said expressionlessly: "Yesterday you passed the first round of ten-day examination, which can be regarded as stepping into the threshold of Confucianism. Drinking, sex, wealth and spirit are harmful to the spirit. Don't go to that kind of smoky place in the future! To avoid self-contamination! Come with me. Let’s go!” He said and led the two of them towards the palace behind them.
Lu Zhi's attitude confused Qin Ge, and Xun Yu urged Qin Ge to follow.
Lu Zhi took the two of them into the academy and came to a sword dojo. There was a statue of Confucius standing in a prominent place. However, this statue was different from other statues of Confucius holding ceremonial gifts. This Confucius was wearing a ceremonial sword and knelt on one knee. Rise up with your sword drawn! After Lu Zhi led the two of them to worship the statue of Confucius, Lu Zhi knelt down in front of the statue of Confucius, and Qin Ge knelt down opposite it. Qin Ge's etiquette standards and disciplined actions made Lu Zhi My impression of him immediately changed greatly.
Lu Zhi said straight to the point: "Everyone in the world is studying Confucianism. The essence of studying Confucianism is to nourish Qi. Preaching and teaching, reading and studying classics, every word and deed are all for nourishing Qi! And our Confucian and Taoist Academy has been established by Confucianism since the time of Emperor Wu. Saint Dong Zhongshu began to study the classics in a poor way. Countless great Confucians came out from this time, containing thousands of classics. Confucianism is righteous. Today, I will use the spirit of a saint to lead you to the flourishing of Confucianism, so that you can feel the existence of Confucianism's righteousness. This nourishes Haoran’s righteousness!”
Lu Zhi then continued: "You were born in the army, and the spirit of war is the best way to nourish your heart. Now I will teach you the Confucian swordsmanship!" The Confucian way is all about internal cultivation, and you use your own cultivation to understand all the external ways.
After Lu Zhi finished speaking, he knelt down quietly and said: "I am standing under the Sage Kong. There used to be countless warriors here who used swords to draw Qi. Just relax your heart and stir up your heart with the thoughts in your body." The energy in the air!"
Qin Ge took a deep breath and put on the white jade sword when he came. He held the scabbard with his left hand and the hilt with his right hand. He knelt down with his right leg, like the statue of Confucius in front of him, intending to draw the sword.
According to Lu Zhi's story, Qin Ge began to try to use the Qi in his body to urge the sword in his hand. However, when he felt a hint of Qi in his body, the Confucius Holy Elephant suddenly exuded a mountain-like pressure that directly oppressed him. came, but Qin Ge was as frightened as an ant under the pressure.
Lu Zhi's powerful voice, set off by the mountain-like momentum, came and said: "The righteousness cultivated by Confucianism is the responsibility of carrying the destiny of heaven and earth. Taking the common people of the world as the responsibility, cultivating the righteousness of the awe-inspiring! If you don't have this! If you wait for magnanimity, then you are not worthy of being a Confucian!"
Xun Yu looked at Qin Ge with some unbearability. He inhaled the spirit in his chest under the statue of Confucius. Although he could cultivate the purest spirit of a saint, there were only a few who succeeded. At that time, only Liu Bei and Cao Cao were the only two people in the world who stood under the statue of Confucius. The successful cultivation of qi is said to be a rare miracle for hundreds of years, and it seems a bit too much to let Qin Ge nourish qi here now... But he did not dare to refute Lu Zhi's decision.
Qin Ge was trembling under the terrifying pressure and was already sweating profusely. Under such huge pressure, every cell in his body was trembling. He knew that as long as he took back the surging breath in his chest, the pressure would also follow. However, as long as he flinches, it means failure to draw Qi, and failure means that the criminal deceives the emperor, and he will be executed by the nine tribes. No, he must use all his strength to draw Qi successfully, for the Qin family, for the free leader, and for There are tens of millions of refugees living in Taishan County.
Suddenly, the terrifying bloody evil energy escaped from Qin Ge's body. The violent killing intent seemed to be tempered from the sea of blood in the corpse mountain. The killing blood energy was like a red glow filling the entire martial arts hall, and even red light shot into the sky. From then on, the entire Wuru Palace was enveloped in blood energy.
Lu Zhi was astonished and said in disbelief: "What kind of monster is this guy reincarnated? He has such a terrifying evil spirit. How much killing is contained in that terrifying blood evil!" Even Xun Yu was incredulous and murmured: "Liu Bei's is The aura of treachery, Cao Cao’s is the aura of war, and Qin Ge’s aura is of violent killing, the age of great strife is coming, with these three, the world will never be at peace!”
At this time, outside the main hall, Wei Zhongdao and other Confucian and Taoist students heard that Qin Ge was about to cause trouble. Regardless of their pain, they came to watch one after another. When they saw the bloody evil aura in the sky, these scholars had never seen such a terrifying evil aura before, and they were a little frightened. With his face pale and soulless, Wei Zhongdao showed a ruthless look on his eyebrows, raised his arms and shouted: "Qin Ge is an unparalleled monster. Such a monster can actually become a Confucian. This is a shame to the Confucianism and Taoism Academy. We want to file a letter Impeach Zhu, Lu, and Huangfu! They are harboring evil spirits and pretending to be great scholars! We are going on a hunger strike in front of the palace to safeguard the righteousness of the world!" As Wei Zhongdao raised his arms and shouted, many scholars were encouraged, and they formed a team one after another. Walk towards the palace.
Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were sitting not far away playing chess. They were also shocked by the bloody aura of Wuru Palace. Huangfu Song looked at Wuru Palace and murmured: "This boy has such a murderous aura. Such a tyrannical person should be called Confucian!"
