Wandao long distance

Chapter 314 The Liu family (please take a leave)
The Patriarch of the Liu Family is a middle-aged man with a long beard, he looks very calm, and his clothes are very simple, nothing fancy.

I really doubt whether Liu Shenzhi is his own. Compared with this simple father, Liu Shenzhi likes to wear fancy clothes, and when traveling, he must have hairpins in his ears, which is very high-profile.

"Uncle, you don't have to be so polite. Brother Liu and I hit it off right away, we just helped each other, so it's not worthy of praise." Li Qi immediately lowered his head and cupped his hands, and said modestly.

The other party called himself 'Young Master', that is to say, his status as the guest of honor was 'Mr. Wushenshan', not 'Liu Shenzhi's classmate'.

So Li Qi immediately replied like this, and addressed him as Uncle, just to show his attitude, saying that he did not come here as a son, but just as a classmate, visiting Liushen's house as a guest.

After all, in any case, this identity is actually very 'noble' in a sense.

However, this meal was much duller than Li Qi imagined.

Mother Liu did not come out to meet the guests, nor did she have any other brothers or sisters, not even a maid, and even Liu Shenzhi was sitting on the table blankly.

Not to mention Liu Junyi, he is a boring gourd, although he doesn't hate talking, but he usually doesn't talk if he can.

Driven by Liu's father, everyone at the table couldn't eat or sleep, didn't speak a word, and just ate.

But what they ate were not expensive ingredients, they were all ordinary things that could be bought in the market. Although there were meat and vegetables, they were not at all the same as the wealth and honor shown by Liu Shenzhi.

Liu Shenzhi is very rich. He breeds witch silkworms, and such a nest consumes the price of a seventh-rank magic weapon.

When he bought his witchcraft magic weapon, he also spent the money for a piece of sixth-grade jasper. That was the money given by the world, and silver was not easy to use.

It can be seen that the Liu family is actually not poor, it can even be said to be very rich, and Liu Shenzhi's pocket money has not been deducted, it's just a habit.

This made Li Qi a little curious...

What exactly happened to make this 'fief' family become such a hobby?

However, although Li Qi was curious, he also knew that it was the rule here not to speak or sleep, so he set up his etiquette and ate seriously.

Although he doesn't usually pay much attention to it, Li Qi has learned a lot, so he is very familiar with these etiquettes, and he can take them out whenever he needs them.

His movements are rigid, with all kinds of rules at his fingertips, his movements are standard, and his temperament is in place, which made Liu's father and Liu Junyi look at him.

Ritual is the embodiment of personal cultivation, and following the ritual is the value of humane Confucian monks, so both of them were a little surprised by Li Qi's performance.

Who would have thought that a shaman would know more about etiquette than Liu Shenzhi.

However, he wasn't surprised by heaven and man, just a little bit surprised.

Because true Confucian monks know that there is a big difference between superficial rituals and rituals that guide social development. The usual rituals can be used as a method of self-cultivation, and there is really no need to be harsh on others.

Look at Liu Shenzhi next to him, with perfunctory etiquette, although he didn't speak, but his eyes are empty, obviously his mind has flown outside, he doesn't care about etiquette at all, in fact, no one cares.

Because this is just a gift of oneself.

One's own rituals are based on one's own physical and mental cooperation, and are only used to restrain oneself.

The etiquette to be promoted to the world is another set of things, which is a set of moral principles that exist in everyone's heart.

By promoting this set of moral principles, the 'great harmony' desired by Confucianism can be achieved.

What is Datong?

The great way is hidden, the world is a family, select the virtuous and capable, preach trust and repair harmony, people are not only kissing their relatives, not only their sons.

There is something for the old, something for the strong, something for the young, something for the widowed, lonely, disabled, and sick.

That's why they don't prosper when they seek closure, and they don't engage in thieves and thieves, so they don't close their homes. This is called "Datong".

So Li Qi's deliberate performance was just to surprise them, but he didn't react too much.

Li Qi was also thinking when he was eating, and he offered to observe the reactions of Liu's father and son to guess his location.

This is also a manifestation of witchcraft.

Find the position that nature should have, and then put it right, and then the world can be stabilized, as the saying goes: 'If there is something in the world, this official should be established. '

The original theory of "Hundred Officials" was actually proposed by Wu Dao.

Baiguan was born to determine the position.

It's just a pity that in the end, it is humanity that will carry forward all the officials and even form the 'official position'.

After the meal, although no one spoke, they got to know each other better.

Sometimes, a lot can be said without words.

Li Qi felt...it was really... quite difficult for Liu Shenzhi to grow up like this in this environment.

After the meal, everyone cleared up their own tableware, because everyone is divided into meals, so they all handle it by themselves.

Li Qi didn't think there was anything wrong, but he just washed it with water, and Liu Shenzhi next to him hastily pulled him away, without even saying hello to Father Liu.

While pulling, he shouted excitedly: "Brother Li, it's boring here, you'd better go to my place, let's discuss big things together!"

Li Qi was sweating when he heard that.

Discuss major issues... I don't know if you think you are rebellious.

However, Li Qi himself was also interested in the witchcraft silkworm, so he didn't refuse, so the two came to the yard and began to study how to make the witchcraft silkworm progress.

This was also the purpose of one of the willow ginsengs, so he couldn't wait.

The two young men went about their business.

----------

On the other hand, Liu Junyi went to Father Liu's door after eating and packing his things.

Knock on the door and see you.

The two saluted each other, the elder and the younger took their places, and then sat down.

An uncle and a nephew face each other, and their temperaments are basically the same, but Liu Shenzhi's biological son seems out of place between these two people.

"Uncle, what's the problem with classmate Li? Why is he so indifferent this time? No classmates have ever been like this before. Why this time?" Liu Junyi asked first.

The atmosphere this time was so serious that even Liu Junyi felt that something was wrong.

Anyway, there are guests coming, how did this happen?

That's Liu Shenzhi's friend, not to mention showing off, at least he has to have a smiling face, right?
Uncle is not an unreasonable person, how to make such an appearance this time, made the capital of Liushenzhi feel bad, and you can see it when eating.

But Father Liu sighed: "There is news from Dali Temple that he is a key surveillance target, and there is also news from Nanshan Academy that this person's teacher once personally killed two members of the Academy."

Liu Junyi also frowned.

He said: "Although there is a connection between the academy and my uncle, the inheritance is different, and we have never been in contact with each other except for the New Year's day. We will not..."

Liu Junyi went on to say: "The sage said that he is the enemy of Kun's younger brother, and he is an official and a common country. He is sent by the king's order. Even if he meets him, he will not fight."

This is what the Confucian sages said. The hatred between brothers means that you cannot live in the same country with him and completely cut off contact with him, but there is no need to fight desperately.

As for the Liu family and the academy, at most, it is considered to be the relationship between Kun and his younger brother.

Not even to, can only be counted as colleagues.

With this kind of relationship, there is no need to fight for him because of the hatred of the academy.

"A disciple in the academy was killed by the great witch. The relationship between this battle and ours is nothing more than the enmity between Kun and my brother. It is not enough to risk my life. Besides, if we want to fight, the opponent should also be Li Qi's teacher. How could we target Li Qi? "

"If that's the case, if you kill one Li Qi, then Zhu Fengdan will accept another apprentice, what should you do? Do you want to kill him too? Anyway, the Academy is a Confucian resort, so it shouldn't be so small." Liu Junyi said.

Yes, from Liu Junyi's point of view, if he wanted to take revenge, he should go to Zhu Fengdan. What's the point of staring at Li Qi?Two adults have a bad relationship, if they go to the gate of the kindergarten and slap each other's child, what else can they gain besides losing face?
However, Father Liu replied: "The academy didn't target your classmates because of hatred, but I don't know the reason behind it. The head of the academy wrote to me personally, asking me to stay away from your classmates." '."

"The head of the Nanshan Academy is my uncle, and I must follow the elder's instruction. Although I don't know why, I should do it." Father Liu said lightly.

"I won't prohibit you from interacting with Li Qi, but it's inconvenient for me to be too intimate. The matter between your children can be resolved by yourself, but... there is one thing, I need to ask you, Jun Yi."

Hearing this, Liu Junyi got up quickly and said: "If uncle is destined, just give orders, don't talk about begging."

Father Liu nodded, and didn't struggle with his words, but said: "Although Shen Zhi is smart, but his heart is too honest, he seems to be gaudy and out of tune, but his heart is still too simple."

"But that classmate Li of yours is too scheming, help me watch out, don't let Shenzhi be tricked by others, that classmate Li of yours can be targeted by the Academy and Dali Temple at the same time, and can also become the envoy of Wushen Mountain It's not that simple, I'm afraid that Shen Zhi will suffer if he follows him." Father Liu shook his head and sighed slightly.

"Uncle is worrying too much. Although classmate Li has a lot of thoughts, he has no bad intentions, and nothing you worry about will happen." Liu Junyi was a little funny when he heard the reason, and then began to persuade his uncle.

How could someone like my uncle have such unfounded worries?

However, Father Liu's words made Liu Junyi's smile disappear.

Father Liu just said: "A scheming person grows fast. I'm not worried about him now, but he is in the vortex of struggles of many forces, and he is also cultivating so many paths at the same time...even has the breath of the devil. "

"Today is like this, but tomorrow might be different." Father Liu said with a sigh.

Young people become the fastest.

They have not been honed over time, and new ideas may emerge every moment.

This represents their vitality, but also their fickleness.

Li Qi, this person, may be okay now...

However, the devilish energy in his body and the many incidents he was involved in made Father Liu feel uneasy, and the letter from the academy finally made him make this decision.

Liu Junyi put away his smile, with a serious face, cupped his hands and said: "What uncle said is true, I will pay attention."

"Just pay attention, don't do other superfluous things, it's just a precaution, not really trying to target him." Father Liu urged.

Defenses can not do without.

Li Qi...it's too dangerous.

----------

However, what Li Qi never expected was that the matter of Liu's father was not an exception.

Li Qi's deeds, followed by investigations in Dali Temple and many letters from Nanshan Academy, quickly spread to the upper echelons of Chang'an.

These things were not put on the news with much fanfare, but gradually spread among the people related to the academy.

But there is another story in the news.

Li Qi was on the news, but it was the news on the "sacrificing wine preaching" which is rare in the etheric science.

But in fact, not many people paid attention to this news.

It only caused a small wave, but it was quickly overshadowed by a lot of other news.

There are two situations where people basically know nothing.

One has no information at all.

The other one has all kinds of information.

Wandering in the sea of ​​endless information, one or two news will be covered up very quickly.

You said that Li Qi's matter is very strange?Once in a thousand years?But you have to think about the limits of the Humane Jurisdiction.

Every one that can appear on the news is a 'once in a thousand years'.

The once-in-a-millennium events are happening all the time, and no one reads the events below the category of the once-in-a-millennium in the newspapers and terminals of Tang Dynasty.

Let alone a rare event in a thousand years, even a rare event in a thousand years is not very unusual. For example, regarding the war in the East China Sea, more than one fourth-rank will fall every year.

Even if the fourth rank is outside the endless domain, it is an extremely rare existence, even if it is in the world, it is considered a strong one.

However, under the conflict between the two major forces, one will fall every day.

Even until now, several of the third ranks have fallen.

The fall of the third rank is really rare in ten thousand years.

It can be seen that as long as the eyes are wide enough, nothing is unusual.

Therefore, Li Qi's news basically did not cause any fluctuations all year round, and was covered up by various other things.

Time passed little by little.

Li Qi stayed at Liu's house all night, neither of them slept, they spent the whole night researching about the silkworm.

Until the sun rose the next day...

Taixue, school has started.

Liu Shenzhi ended the conversation with Li Qi contentedly: "Okay, brother Li, let's stop here for now, we have written down all the ideas from last night, and when I sort it out, we can start to cultivate the first one." The second batch."

"As for your Holy Flame, it's quite simple. This thing was born for the witch silkworm! With the help of this thing, the iteration speed of the witch silkworm will be greatly improved."

"Okay, let's not talk about this, the sun has already risen, today is the first day of Taixue, let's go to school, I haven't been to school yet." Li Qi smiled, looking very calm.

But that's just what it looks like.

He has realized it.

I am afraid that the witch weapon silkworm can really earn a lot of money.

However, that takes a while of hard work.

At the same time as research and development, studies must not be left behind.

(Recent funerals, moving, and a bunch of miscellaneous things, the author has become numb, and the quality has also declined. I asked for a day off to refresh my spirit... I have reached the limit.)
