Becoming an Immortal from the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 73 Apologize
Zhang Yuqing stopped writing and stood there, and handed the Chinese manuscript to Zixuan who was beside him and said, "The academy will be built according to this shape, and I will also issue an edict that all the students in my teaching, who are over 16 years old and under 25 years old, can be admitted to the academy based on merit." , as my disciple."

"Yes, Daozi." Zixuan took the manuscript, held it in her arms and stood up, looking hesitant to speak.

Seeing Zhang Yuqing closing her eyes and ignoring her, Zixuan still couldn't hold back the doubts in her heart, and asked, "I still don't understand why I spend all this money and food to teach these disciples. Considering their age, they are already family members. Adults, the concept has been consolidated, why not start with the child, and under the persuasion and guidance, you will be able to accept His Highness Daozi's concept more quickly."

Zhang Yuqing closed his eyes and said: "You don't need to worry about it, it's not that I don't understand this principle. It's just that what I worry about in my heart is definitely not the three thousand disciples here, but the people in this world!"

"If you want to educate the people, teach all living beings, make people enlightened, and worship immortals, it will not be possible to rely on me or you alone."

"Therefore, we must first educate a group of qualified pioneers, and then let them carry out enlightenment, one spreads to ten, ten spreads to hundreds, and as time goes by, people from all over the world will naturally come to my nest one after another."

The preparations for the new drama are in full swing here, but Zhang Yuqing has not forgotten about teaching. He has finalized the first generation of textbooks, all selected from primary school textbooks, and strives to quickly transform a citizen of the Northern Song Dynasty to the level of a primary school diploma in the simplest way. .

The so-called simplicity is naturally a comparison of the two.

In the Northern Song Dynasty and the long feudal regime era, elite education was generally promoted.

That is to say, only a group of extremely intelligent people can receive the most elite education at that time, and the essence of receiving this education is to let them become masters, not to let them increase their wisdom and work for food.

This is different from mass education in the era of simplified Chinese characters. Because machines in industrial society have replaced most of the manpower, a hundred ignorant people are far less useful than a knowledgeable worker.

In order for people to better control machines, education for all must be instilled.

And Zhang Yuqing wants to increase productivity, increase the population, increase the concentration of aura in the Northern Song Dynasty, and forcibly break through, and also needs more qualified industrial society citizens.

Therefore, he must engage in education.

Moreover, education can also be mixed with private goods to transform the atmosphere from the social level, so that everyone knows the teachings.

As time goes by, it directly isolates the influence of Confucianism on the common people from the physical level.

Make people only know immortals, but not saints.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

After all, people are profit-seeking.

When the machines are popularized, a person who has received the education of the perfect longevity education system can quickly get started with the latest machines, familiarize himself with its principles, and use them to produce the most advanced products to create profits, so naturally he will not worry about finding a job.

And a poor scholar who studied hard for ten years and dreamed of passing the imperial examination to become an official and earning a lot of money came out of the examination room, and found that the hard requirement for recruitment all over the street was that he had a high school diploma from the Longevity Teaching, and he was bound to break his defense on the spot , died suddenly.

However, this is not safe.

After all, the Great Song Dynasty also left a way to become an official in the court for scholars all over the world. Those who study Confucianism will not give up, and will inevitably accumulate strength to make a comeback.

And next time, they will fully realize that this emerging Changsheng religion is cutting off their path of Confucian scholars from the root.

At that time, all vested interests in the world will be crazy, and they will even go to the Liao Kingdom and Xixia to start a war and exterminate the Longevity Cult.

Therefore, they cannot be given this opportunity.

Zhang Yuqing already had a preliminary plan in his mind, but it was not yet the time to make a move.

After all, the shadow of the industrial age has not yet been seen, and it has just evolved into hydraulic machinery. Even if I have my Taoist and immortal master behind the scenes to help them, it will take some time to successfully produce the first steam prototype. day.

If we want to reform at the moment, we will inevitably startle the snake.

It is the best policy to lie dormant and wait for the opportunity to move.

He was thinking about it, when he heard someone outside the door saying:

"Teacher Daozi, the Yang family is visiting and wants to meet with you."

"Ok?"

He opened his eyes and said lightly, "Yes."

After a while, a group of people led Mu Guiying, Yang Wenguang, and Yang Huaiyu into the hall, bowed their hands and left.

The three looked cautious, saluted and asked: "My old man (my lord, a certain one) has seen His Highness Daozi, and his flesh and blood are in pain. I pray that His Highness can enjoy long life as soon as possible, and become immortal and ascend!"

"Excuse me."

Zhang Yuqing unceremoniously sat on the grand teacher's chair, and looked at the three of them through a silk cloth.

However, Mu Guiying was over sixty and nearly seventy years old, and the high-spirited middle-aged man looked only thirty or forty, but in fact, his inner muscles, bones, skin and flesh were all rotten.

Yang Huaiyu didn't change much, he was still the handsome young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes.

His pupils are like lacquer, the bridge of his nose is straight, his fair complexion reveals a faint blush, and he reveals a sharp-edged and cool handsomeness.

However, His Royal Highness Daozi was present, but he didn't dare to put on airs as a child of an aristocratic family, he was worried, lest Daozi would get angry.

"What are you waiting for to see?"

Hearing Daozi speak, Yang Wenguang cast his eyes on his old lady as if asking for help.

Entering this hall, the ubiquitous aura of majesty almost wiped away the fierceness of a martial artist that he had accumulated in his body for decades!

The mysterious Daozi is like a god who does not eat fireworks in the world, sitting high on the altar, with a layer of fairy light shining through the outline that can be vaguely seen through the silk.

The statue of the Immortal Venerable stands behind Daozi, with a pair of indifferent pupils that seem to be filled with compassion for the common people in the world, and seem to be illusory, quietly settled down.

The buildings around the body are painted with many deeds of longevity and immortality. There are pictures of the first coming to the world thousands of years ago and enlightening the people. Thousands of images of terrifying monsters in various shapes.

Under the coercion of the immortal god that was almost condensed into substance, everything seemed to come alive, which made him tremble, and he suddenly felt that he could not control his own destiny, and the future was unpredictable.

Mu Guiying had a look of peace on her wrinkled face. She sensed the magnanimity and compassion of the Immortal Venerable, and sincerely bent down to the statue of the Immortal Venerable and prayed softly: "I hope the Immortal Venerable will protect my Huaiyu. An'an, I have nothing to repay for my old age, I only wish to worship the immortal and recite the name of the immortal for the rest of my life."

After she finished speaking, she raised her head, turned to the side where Dao Zi was, bowed and apologized and said, "My son disrespected Dao Zi the day before yesterday, and it was because of his old age that he was incapable of teaching. I hope His Highness Dao Zi will forgive me."

Zhang Yuqing snorted coldly: "Your family received the favor of the Immortal, but you forgot it when you turned around. Now that my sect is powerful, and you are looking forward to it, you have really insulted Jiyegong's great name!"

Mu Guiying looked apologetic, and pulled Yang Huaiyu and said: "I have no way to discipline myself, now I have no choice but to hand this grandson into the hands of His Royal Highness Dao Zi. I hope he can lead the horse and fall for His Highness Dao Zi, and accept Dao Zi. Correct the adult by precepts and deeds, don't learn to be as stupid as his father!"

"In this way, even if the old body dies, I can rest in peace!"
