Hanging pot to help the world, I just want to live forever

Gu's small courtyard.

After a few years, come back again.

This time, the Gu family's courtyard was neither messy nor dusty.

Clean, tidy, spotless, as if it had just been tidied up.

Emperor Qizhi took the lead and said: "Every day, guards come to sweep the yard to ensure it is clean and tidy. Now that Mr. Gu has returned, naturally we cannot let it get dusty again."

"Have a heart."

Gu Dan nodded slightly and glanced at the Sunflower Chrysanthemum beside the wall.

As bright as fire, as crystal clear as ice, it grows more and more pleasantly.

Even the fragrance in the courtyard has a faintly special charm. When I sniff it lightly with my nose, my mind becomes clearer.

But when I was outside the courtyard, I couldn't feel the special fragrance of the Sun Chrysanthemum at all.

Apart from the Sunflower, only a willow tree beside the stone table added some color to the small yard.

It was a small willow tree that was completely reborn from a dead tree. The branches and leaves were slender and soft, and the emerald green veins looked quite complicated, but it did not make people feel messy. Instead, it had a unique sense of beauty.

However, the small willow tree does not look very big. Although it is reborn on the dry and dead big willow tree, it does not blend in with each other and is distinct from each other.

Life and death coexist in that "twins in one body" willow tree, which is enough to make people ponder for a long time. Is the dead willow tree reincarnated, or is the dead willow tree giving new life to future generations?
There is quite a bit of mystery in it.

Gu Dan walked into the small courtyard of the Gu family, and Emperor Qizhi was one step behind.

It wasn't until both of them walked in that Qingniu, who was following Gu Dan, reluctantly squeezed into the small courtyard, which was a bit small for it.

However, just as he stepped into the courtyard, Qingniu's amber eyes suddenly widened and rounded!
"Mo~"

Qingniu couldn't help but let out a roar, his nose twitching crazily, causing a large airflow, and he almost greedily sniffed the unique aroma in the Gu family's courtyard.

As his huge eyes turned, he saw at a glance the lonely Lieyang Tianju beside the wall.

"Mou!!"

Qingniu roared almost in shock, and moved its hooves towards Lieyang Tianju involuntarily, and two thick streams of white air spurted out from its nose.

The blood is telling it, swallow that flower, swallow that flower!
As long as you can swallow that flower, it will be like a new life!
Where has it ever experienced this almost irresistible temptation?
Who wouldn’t be confused when encountering it!
It's a pity that the idea is beautiful.

Before it really got close, the whole body suddenly froze in place.

Not to mention moving his hooves, he couldn't even blink his eyelids.

"Be respectful, that's a 'senior' who is almost two hundred years older than you. Do you still want to go up and take a bite?"

Gu Dan smiled and cursed.

As his words fell, Lieyang Tianju seemed to feel a hint of threat.

The petals that were originally sparkling like fire quickly converged, and then the scorching breath began to spread. The original fragrance in the air instantly turned into a blazing breath, as if the sun was blooming here.

A "hissing" sound suddenly came from Qingniu's body, and the sword could not even damage his skin. It lost some of its luster at a speed visible to the naked eye, and white mist rose.

Qingniu's amber eyes showed endless fear.

Flowers are so powerful?!
But that's not all.

Along with the wrath of the Sun Sky Chrysanthemum, a branch on the thin willow tree suddenly bloomed with a subtle brilliance, stretching out like a rope to tie up the green cow.

The willow branches that should have been weak and tender were extremely flexible and strong at this time, wrapping around the green cow's body and slowly tightening.

The two of them can work together!
"All right."

Gu Dan walked over, ignoring the blazing heat, and gently touched the petals of the Lieyang Sky Chrysanthemum, and a trace of cyan luster flowed through them.

Of course, spiritual plants can be lethal - even non-lethal spiritual plants will attract guardian spirit beasts, mutually benefiting each other.

This Fierce Sun Celestial Chrysanthemum already had some strangeness before the drastic change in the world. It was also a beneficiary of the drastic change in the world and was nourished by the green wood liquid.

It is no exaggeration to say that no matter from every aspect, it is quite unusual, and he also knows how to keep his little brother in captivity!
This green bull spirit beast is a rising star, and it is unreasonable to want to bite the old man from 200 years ago.

If he hadn't stopped me, we would have had roast beef for dinner today.

After Gu Dan comforted her, the petals of the Sunflower Celestial Chrysanthemum gently rubbed on Gu Dan's fingers. The original fiery breath gradually disappeared, and the fragrance once again filled the Gu family courtyard.

The willow tree followed his lead, and the outstretched willow branch retracted instantly, as if nothing happened.

Emperor Qizhi was really dumbfounded.

As the emperor of the Xia Dynasty, what has he not seen before?
He has really never seen this before!
Although there are various "auspicious" news coming from various places in Xia Dynasty from time to time, the auspiciousness of this level is really unique to Scorpion Baba!

Today is an eye-opener.

It seemed that those auspicious signs were not as easy to obtain as he thought. They really couldn't treat them as crops, just like drawing a circle and claiming the land as their own.

"Mr. Gu, these two rare things look really extraordinary!"

Emperor Qizhi did not hide the shock on his face.

He has seen many masters who can fight, and plants that actively attack - this had only existed in story novels before.

Think about the practitioners that Xia Chao secretly cultivated. The more outstanding ones among them were only at the first level of Qi training.

He was quite happy before. What happened to the first level of Qi training?
The first level of Qi training is also the cultivation of immortality!
Compare it to neighboring countries, or even look at the entire world.

Xia Chao also had the confidence to say those four words:
Far ahead!
It's just that people are dead compared to others, and goods are thrown away when compared with goods.

It seems that the monks currently trained by Xia Chao can't even defeat the plants in the Gu family's courtyard.

No, it's not like, but definitely.

This undoubtedly extinguished the excitement in Emperor Qizhi's heart. Originally, he wanted to brag to Mr. Gu.

As a result, the good news didn’t need to be exported at all. The plants in the other party’s yard were so magical!
That's right, don't look at all the people who came out of the Gu family courtyard!
Mo Qiu founded the Mo family after leaving the Gu family courtyard.

Xun Ke founded Confucianism after leaving the Gu family courtyard.

Even his ancestor, the founding emperor Wang Mang, left the Gu family courtyard!
Shang, who was not lucky enough to live in the courtyard of the Gu family, was inspired by Mr. Gu to become a disciple of Xun Ke and eventually founded Legalism.

How can ordinary people measure the vision of such people?
Even the plants in Gu's courtyard are more powerful than outside, so it's normal!
There is nothing difficult to understand. Who told the other party to be Mr. Gu?

Both the ancestors and Emperor Qizhi, who once questioned Gu Dan's decisions in the past, are now absolutely convinced of Gu Dan, even if they don't.

"There are many extraordinary things, so be in awe."

Gu Dan said nonchalantly.

After all, he is someone who has met Venerable White Lotus, and his horizons must be opened.

His current achievements are not enough to be praised.

He must always have the heart of an apprentice until he has nothing more to learn, and then re-evaluate himself. This is what he wants to grasp.

"However, precisely because of this, I am also worried, and I would like to ask Mr. Gu to clarify my doubts."

Emperor Qizhi's face straightened and he said seriously.

"Tell me more." Gu Dan said casually after returning to the stone table in the yard and sitting down.

"Under the drastic changes in the world, as you said, spiritual energy has appeared in the world, and it is bound to have an impact on the world beyond imagination. Now there are signs."

After glancing at the Sun Chrysanthemum and the willow tree in the yard again, Emperor Qizhi said: "How will the Xia Dynasty respond to this change?"

The problem is huge.

He thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

Even Shang avoided talking about it.

He could only turn to Mr. Gu, hoping to get instructions to re-plan the direction of the Xia Dynasty under the current situation.

"there is always a solution to a problem."

Gu Dan said quite simply.

Emperor Qizhi nodded repeatedly and looked at Gu Dan with blinking eyes.

Until I realized that Gu Dan seemed to have finished speaking - he didn't wait for the next sentence for a long time.

Although it was not good to question Mr. Gu, Emperor Qizhi couldn't help but ask: "Is that all?"

"if not?"

Gu Dan asked back, "Do you want to get an answer from me that can perfectly fit the Xia Dynasty and will never change?
If I could do that, why would there be people from Mohism, Confucianism, and Legalism in the Xia Dynasty?

Times will change, and so will the environment.

When the Xia Dynasty was first established, people were poor and poor, and the people suffered from wars and hated war. Therefore, the Mohist family was at its peak and people yearned for it.

It was not until decades later that the Xia Dynasty prospered under Wang Mang's rule. The people who had been devastated by the war and the people who had truly endured the war gradually passed away.

By that time, the Mohists had begun to be disliked by others, who thought they were too 'conformist', even though the term was initially a good reputation.

Xun Ke saw this, so he founded Confucianism and promoted benevolence and righteousness. At that time, the Xia Dynasty was no longer a broken country, but a rising Xia Dynasty.

The surrounding countries would no longer focus on Xia Chao. Instead, they would worry about Xia Chao causing trouble for them, so the Mo family seemed a little out of place.

If the powerful Xia Dynasty continues to act according to the Ten Principles of Mohism, it will hinder its own development.So at that critical node, Xun Ke replaced Mohism with Confucianism and successfully changed the direction of the Xia Dynasty.

There is no doubt that Confucianism at that time was more suitable for the Xia Dynasty than Mohism.

No one forced the Mohists to leave, and no one forced Qin Lisheng to travel around the country, but the Xia Dynasty was no longer a suitable soil for the Mohists.

Only in other places can the Mohist family exert greater value, that's all.

By the time your father, Emperor Taiping, took over, the Xia Dynasty was already very prosperous.

Confucian scholars took the place of Mohists and became the mainstream.Decades of rest and recuperation also allowed the Xia Dynasty to grow and even gain a group of powerful people.Benevolence and righteousness began to become a sharp knife in their hands to make profit.

Both Mohism and Confucianism are too benevolent in this regard, and it is easy for them to lose their tail.

Then Shang saw this.

Later he founded Legalism - I don’t need to tell you this anymore, right?
What happened next should be clear to you.

Taking a closer look at the past of the Xia Dynasty, if the Xia Dynasty is a carriage, then the Mohists are the ones who created the carriage, the Confucians are the ones who push the carriage forward, and the Legalists are the ones who put the reins on the carriage. . "

After speaking for a long time, Gu Dan warned: "As the emperor of the Xia Dynasty, you can't just look at it for a moment.

Don't ask me what I should do, but ask what Xia Chao needs you to do.

Different periods and different situations naturally require different things.

It is an irrefutable truth that things should adapt to local conditions and change with the times.

Where is there anything that can be done once and for all?
Could it be that since the world today is following Legalism, Confucianism and Mohism are meaningless?
Do you still want to ask why you didn’t directly praise Legalism at the beginning and jump to today?”

Emperor Qizhi was speechless for a moment.

This kind of thinking that transcends the times is what he lacks.

As the saying goes, the authorities are confused.

Perhaps it was precisely because Gu Dan was so important in the Xia Dynasty that as long as he was in the Xia Dynasty, the decision-makers of the Xia Dynasty felt that they still had a backer.

With a backer, it is inevitable to try to take advantage of others.

But unfortunately, there is no shortcut to this kind of thing.

Gu Dan could not predict what would happen next.

At the crossroads of the times, everyone is in the fog.

For a major change of this level, everyone is just a wave in the river. Only when the waves gather together to form a huge wave sweeping the world can it be possible to influence the general trend and even skyrocket.

If he could help Xia Chao take two steps faster, that would be the limit of what he could do.

"I understand, I am too greedy."

Emperor Qizhi smiled bitterly, then his face became serious, and said: "I will do my best to see the way forward clearly and let Xia Chao choose the right direction again."

"That's your business."

Gu Dan nodded slightly, but his eyes were looking deep into the sky, which even with the eyes of the sky could not see clearly, "Maybe this time, it is not our turn to choose the direction."

Just like Jedi Heavenly Power.

Just like the previous drastic changes in the world.

Sometimes, many things have been smashed onto your head before you even have the chance to choose.

Whether you are willing or unwilling, you can only go with the flow.

The strength of Xia Dynasty will give Xia Dynasty more opportunities, but it does not mean that it will stand forever.

"No matter what, Xia Dynasty will definitely become stronger and stronger!"

When even Gu Dan felt helpless, Emperor Qizhi said with extra confidence.

Even far more confident than Gu Dan.

The spirit of an emperor finally emerged from his body, and his unquestionable tone was like an order given by a king to heaven and earth.

It doesn't matter if you sit in a well and look at the sky, or if you have a newborn calf.

After all, the Xia Dynasty emperor was not a heartless person.

He was certain that the Xia Dynasty would not fall behind even in the new era, and would even continue to climb upward.

Because in the Xia Dynasty, there were always outstanding people who were willing to open up the way forward and worked tirelessly to guide the way forward.

"it is good."

Gu Dan laughed heartily and repeated in a positive tone: "The Xia Dynasty will definitely become stronger and stronger."
