"The most miserable people in the world are the people who are digging for food in the land!"
After washing the mud off their hands and feet in the ditch, Li Zexuan and Mo Huai put on their shoes again and walked towards Yunshan. As for Liu Feng, Liu Yun and other guards, Li Zexuan sent them back first. , On the way, Li Zexuan couldn't help but sigh.
"It is a great blessing for the people of Lantian County that Mr. Hou can understand this! If Mr. Hou is here in Lantian County for a day, the people of Lantian County will definitely live a better life than the people of other states and counties!"
Mo Huai put his hands behind his back and smiled slightly.
Li Zexuan paused, raised his eyebrows, looked at Mo Huai, and said, "Does Mr. Mo think so highly of me?"
Mo Huai shook his head and said: "It's not that Mo doesn't look down on the mountain chief. It's the mountain chief's true heart that drives the mountain chief to work for the welfare of the people. Today, the mountain chief can go to the fields to plant rice for an old farmer. This job You can’t pretend to have good intentions, and Mo hopes that Mr. Shan can always remember and keep this kind intention to benefit the people of the world, because engineering requires saints~!”
Engineering needs saints!
These seven short words shocked Li Zexuan's heart and made him stunned!
Mo Huai's words may seem very simple, but they are actually very profound!
Confucianism has been spread for thousands of years and has not declined because the sage Confucius and his three thousand disciples have been honored throughout the ages. The Taoist school has Laozi, the Mohist school has Mozi, and the Legalist school has Han Feizi!
As for engineering, although there are now more than 600 engineering students, there is still a lack of a saint who can represent engineering!
saint!
Li Zexuan never wanted to be a saint, but when Jing Mo Huai said this today, he couldn't help but feel a little excited!
In other words, if he promoted engineering and made the industry of the Tang Dynasty prosperous, would he also be able to become a saint respected by thousands of people?
Who would dare to say that engineering is a subpar miscellaneous major when you see it?
Thinking of this, Li Zexuan couldn't help but become excited!
But is the name of a saint really what he wants?
Suddenly, such a thought suddenly came into Li Zexuan's mind. Under the temptation of the saint's name, this thought seemed so small, but it was so strong. It was like a weak spark in the vast dark night. , tenaciously lighting up a space!
A single spark can start a prairie fire!
That spark became more and more powerful, burning crazily in the slowly endless night. Li Zexuan's mind was getting clearer and clearer at this moment!
After Mo Huai waited for a long time, Li Zexuan finally spoke. He only heard him whisper softly: "I don't really want to be called a saint. We should act in accordance with our true intentions throughout our lives, punish evil and promote good, support justice, and benefit the common people. , Pleasure and freedom! As for how future generations will evaluate it, what does that have to do with me? Right or wrong, merit or demerit, they can say whatever they want~!"
As he finished speaking, Li Zexuan felt that his previously chaotic mind exploded with a bang, but soon became clear again. At the same time, the true energy in his Dantian that had been silent for a long time now became clear. There was some restlessness, and the threshold for the later stage of Grandmaster seemed to have become a little loose!
Since last year's battle with the bearded man, Li Zexuan was lucky enough to enter the middle stage of a master. Since then, he has given up the idea of improving in martial arts, because he knows that the further you go in martial arts, the harder it becomes. If you want to become his master Lingxu It is estimated that he may not be able to achieve a great master like a real person in his entire life. Instead of practicing martial arts 24 hours a day, it is better to take time out to spend time with his family and have fun. With his current status, he would not be able to achieve it. You must suffer that sin!
Besides, as a modern highly educated intellectual, Li Zexuan values science and technology far more than martial arts. Therefore, for more than half a year, he only practices sword practice for half an hour every morning, and then goes to work in the fief and the academy. Something happened!
But he never expected that his Dantian, which had been silent for more than half a year, would become restless and lively again at this moment. He was very familiar with this feeling. It was a sign that the realm was loose and there was hope for breaking through!
Everyone in the world likes to say the phrase "fame and wealth are just floating clouds" to express that they are indifferent to fame and fortune. But when huge fame and wealth are really before their eyes, how many people can resist the temptation? Li Zexuan resisted. He only did what he wanted to do in his life. He cultivated the Tao of following one's heart and everything went according to one's heart. He did not want to be tied up by the name of a saint and be timid!
Because of this, he was able to have clear thoughts and a clear mind at this moment!
Mo Huai couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard Li Zexuan say "I don't want to be called a saint" just a moment ago. After all, if Li Zexuan could become a saint, it would have a huge impact on Confucianism. Although he He doesn't expect Mohism to become a prominent school in the world again, but that doesn't mean he can get used to Confucianism being spread all over the world now!
While he was disappointed, Mo Huai's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Li Zexuan with a frightened look!
Because he noticed the fluctuation of zhenqi!
Looking at Li Zexuan with his eyes closed and his face turned to the sky, as if he was undergoing a telepathic reaction, Mo Huai's heart suddenly stirred up a huge wave!
Oh my God! Is the mountain chief going to break through again? Do you want to be such a monster? Obviously, he just entered the middle stage of Grand Master last year. How long has it passed? Why is he breaking through again?
At this moment, Mo Huai couldn't care less about his disappointment. He quickly put his mind on guard and helped Li Zexuan protect the law to prevent anyone from disturbing Li Zexuan's enlightenment.
Fortunately, the location they were in was next to the forest road at the foot of the mountain. Usually no one would come here at this time.
While Mo Huai was helping Li Zexuan protect the law, he looked at Li Zexuan intently with extremely complex eyes!
Perfect!
Li Zexuan's martial arts, knowledge, and character are all among the best among men. If you want to use one word to describe such a person, it can only be "perfect"!
Such a perfect young man has time and ability. It would be a pity if he does not become a saint!
Mo Huai sighed with regret in his heart.
But after Li Zexuan refused to become a saint, he was able to understand his thoughts and have an epiphany. This just shows that the way he chose is the way that suits him best!
Thinking of this, the pity in Mo Huai's heart instantly turned into a blessing for Li Zexuan!
After two quarters of an hour, the sky had completely darkened, and Li Zexuan finally opened his eyes. The moment he opened his eyes, Mo Huai could clearly detect a ray of light in those sharp eyes. Pass away!
"How is it? Chief Shan? Have you made a breakthrough?"
Mo Huai asked quickly.
The reason why I ask is because Li Zexuan's true energy is restrained. He can't feel the true energy fluctuations in Li Zexuan's body at this moment, so naturally he can't see Li Zexuan's current state!
Li Zexuan shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Mr. Mo is joking, how can it be so easy to break through the realm after the master? I just walked around in front of the threshold!"
Mo Huai said seriously: "Shan Chief, this is already very good! Now that you have touched the threshold, it will be a matter of time before you break through. It is unimaginable that, Chief Shan, you can touch the Grand Master before you are twenty years old. The threshold for the later period, this martial arts qualification, not to mention the entire Tang Dynasty, even if you look around the world, it is difficult to find the second person~!"
Li Zexuan only felt that his mind was clear and his whole body felt refreshed at this moment. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Haha! This is just a fluke! Mr. Mo, please don't praise me, maybe I will be proud! The weather is dark now It’s not too early, let’s go up the mountain quickly!”
After that, Li Zexuan took the lead and walked towards the mountain.
"Um!"
Mo Huai responded and followed.
"Oh, right!"
Li Zexuan suddenly stopped, and with Mo Huai on his back, he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Mo, don't talk about saints anymore. Engineering is still a seedling. I don't want to stir up disputes between schools now. It's good for us to just settle down in this corner." "Although a single spark can start a prairie fire, there are only a few hundred students in engineering, which is not enough to start a prairie fire!"
After that, Li Zexuan continued walking towards Yunshan.
Mo Huai, who was following behind, couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart. Apparently, Li Zexuan had noticed his little thoughts, which made him feel a little ashamed.
He secretly said that he must never play tricks in front of Li Zexuan from now on!
............................
On the second day, after Li Zexuan finished sword practice and had breakfast, he walked towards the other courtyard where Sun Simiao was.
After he came home last night, Han Yuxi told him that Sun Simiao had looked for him yesterday afternoon but could not find him, so Li Zexuan came over in person.
Walking into Sun Simiao's villa, he saw that Hu was already helping Sun Simiao clean up in the yard. This little girl lived in her own home at night and would come to Yunshan early in the morning to take care of Sun Simiao's food, daily life and help. Sun Simiao took action to treat illnesses and save people.
She really regarded Sun Simiao as her savior and tried her best to repay her, repaying Sun Simiao for allowing her to see the light again, and even repaying Sun Simiao for curing her brother's stuttering!
"Master, you're here! Yesterday, Master and I went to the other hospital and academy but couldn't find you. Master is reading medical books in the backyard now. Go quickly!"
When Hu Jingran saw Li Zexuan coming, he quickly stepped forward and said with a smile.
Li Zexuan smiled and said: "I was busy in the workshop at the foot of the mountain yesterday, not on the mountain! Surprisingly, you came to see me yesterday. What happened?"
Hu Jingran said "Oh" and replied: "Master, the Datang United Medical Center in Lantian County has been built. I guess Master is looking for you for this matter. Why don't you go to the backyard and ask him in person? "
"What? Has the medical center been built? When was it built? Where is it built?"
Li Zexuan said in shock.
He had never heard that a medical center was being built in Lantian County. Why was it suddenly built?
"It was built two days ago. It was built in Yong'anfang, the county seat. It is not far from the master's mansion! Master, you told the master before that the medical clinic should be divided into departments. This time, the master built the medical clinic in accordance with the rules. That’s what you asked me to do, the medical center is quite big, it has dozens of rooms~!”
Dozens of houses? Do you think dozens of houses are big? This is considered a county hospital after all, right? How could it be so shabby?
"Surprisingly, why didn't Master Sun discuss with me when he was building a medical center? Also, where did he get the money to build a medical center?"
Li Zexuan said helplessly.
Hu Jingran thought for a while and replied: "Young master, you have been busy all day long. Master feels that you have forgotten that you promised him to help build a medical center. A few days ago, you went to find He Jingran." County Magistrate, as for where Master got the money to build the medical center, I don’t know, you’d better ask Master in person~!”
Li Zexuan couldn't help but patted his forehead. If Hu Jingran hadn't mentioned it today, he would have been so busy that he had completely forgotten about the medical clinic. He coughed twice in embarrassment and said, "Ahem! That's okay. , I went to find Daozhang Sun! You are busy with your business!"
After that, he hurriedly went to the backyard.
"Well, Xiaoxuan, are you here? Sit down!"
In the backyard, Sun Simiao was reading medical books and taking notes under the small pavilion. When he noticed someone coming, he looked up and saw it was Li Zexuan. He pointed to the stone bench opposite and said with a smile.
Seeing that Sun Simiao didn't mean to blame him, Li Zexuan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He sat down and asked Sun Simiao tentatively: "Master Sun, I heard that the joint medical center in the county has been built?"
Hearing this, Sun Simiao put down his medical skills and nodded: "Well! Pindao came to you yesterday just for this matter. Now that the medical center is built, it must be put into use as soon as possible to treat patients. Otherwise, so many houses will be lost." If it’s empty, wouldn’t it be a waste?”
Li Zexuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes! Daozhang Sun is right. It should be put into use as soon as possible! Oh, by the way, I heard that there are dozens of rooms in this medical center. Is it true?"
Sun Simiao said: "Yes! It's true! Pindao thought that if this medical clinic was divided into departments, it would have to prepare more rooms. This is not a deliberate waste of Xiaoxuan's money!"
Li Zexuan shook his head and said: "No! That's not what I meant. I think the number of rooms you have prepared, Mr. Sun, is a bit small! At least you should prepare hundreds of rooms! Eh? Isn't that right? You always say you're wasting my money. What do you mean?" Could it be that my money was used to build this medical center?"
Sun Simiao raised his eyebrows and said: "That's right! Didn't you say, Xiaoxuan, that you would fully support Pindao in developing medicine and spreading medicine in Lantian County? You said that you would provide all the necessary manpower, material resources, and financial resources for this building. Of course you should pay for the medical center! Oh, by the way! The county government still owes the villagers money for the project, Xiaoxuan, go and settle the money as soon as possible!"
Li Zexuan was suddenly stunned, and then he felt dumbfounded. Apparently, Sun Simiao was asking Magistrate He to help summon a construction team to repair the medical center in his name! He didn't expect that even though Sun Simiao was so old, he could be so naughty. It seemed that from now on, instead of calling Li Shizhen's naughty skin, he should be called Sun Simiao's naughty person!
"Ahem! Okay! Okay! This junior will go to the county office soon to settle the debt with County Magistrate He! You don't have to worry, Mr. Sun!"
Although Lao Sun was a bit naughty, since he had agreed to help Sun Simiao build the medical clinic, he had to pay for it.
Sun Simiao nodded, then sighed and said: "Xiaoxuan, this medical clinic has been established, but there are still a lot of doctors missing here. You have to help me!"
