Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 28 Unpredictable People
Qin Zhiyong doesn't have many things, just a few clothes and a few books, put them in a package, and he can leave with them.When Qin Zhiyong left Chenjiagou, the village would naturally invite other masters to teach the children to read.

The school will definitely continue to operate, and Qin Zhiyong does not need to worry about this.

Chen Zhengying made her own arrangements.

late at night.

Qin Zhiyong, Chen Zhengzhou, and Yang Yuqian were all awake.After such a thing happened in the village, almost everyone was sleepless.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Second Uncle, Ah Gan, I'll go to the village."

Yang Yuqian asked: "Mr. Qin, what are you doing in the village so late? How about I go with you?"

Chen Zhengzhou is older and has more experience than Yang Yuqian.He guessed that Qin Zhiyong must go to his elder brother Chen Zhengying to discuss something.Since Qin Zhiyong didn't invite Yang Yuqian to go with him, it would be inappropriate for Yang Yuqian to follow.

Chen Zhengzhou said: "Gan, sit down for me, boy. Qin Zhiyong has business to do when he goes to the village, why are you coaxing him? If you are too energetic and have nowhere to vent your energy, why not punch a few times. Qin Zhiyong, Go early, boy, come back early."

Qin Zhiyong smiled, nodded to Chen Zhengying and Yang Yuqian, and walked down the mountain.

………………

The lights in Chen Zhengying's small courtyard were still on, obviously not asleep yet.

Qin Zhiyong knocked on the gate of the small courtyard.

Chen Shaoqi opened the door and asked, "Qin Zhiyong, it's so late, why haven't you rested yet?"

Qin Zhiyong said with a smile: "Aren't you also up? Where's your father?"

Chen Shaoqi said: "My father is in the house. Come in."

Both Chen Zhengying and Chen Shaoqi are well dressed.It's so late, dressed like this, it's practicing boxing.

Chen Zhengying is teaching Chen Shaoqi the essence of Neijiaquan and the secret technique of winding silk strength.

The arrival of Cui Tianba gave Chen Zhengying a sense of urgency and crisis.As for Chenjiagou's ancestral motto "Pass on sons but not daughters", he can no longer take care of that much.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Senior, I want to talk to you."

Chen Zhengying nodded and said, "Okay."

Chen Zhengying asked Chen Shaoqi to go back to her room to rest first.

Qin Zhiyong and Chen Zhengying talked for more than half an hour.What exactly did the two talk about?No one knows except Qin Zhiyong and Chen Zhengying.

………………

In a private house.

Cui Tianba and the others also didn't feel sleepy at all.

Qin Zhiyong's Taijiquan shocked Cui Tianba too much.He had heard of the great name of Neijiaquan, and he used to think that Neijiaquan was nothing special, it was just passed on as miraculous.

After really seeing Neijiaquan, Cui Tianba had to admit that Taijiquan is indeed very miraculous and exquisite.

One of the spies said: "Master Cui, do you think that little Taoist priest is going to play some tricks? Chenjiagou feels like a villain, too evil."

There are Taoist priests in the village.

Prince Duan attached great importance to this Chenjiagou.

Can it be evil?

Cui Tianba snorted coldly: "No matter how powerful Chen Zhengying and that little Taoist priest are, forgive them for not daring to attack us. Offending the prince will lead to death."

Cui Tianba's mind is vicious and domineering, but he is not a fool.Chen Zhengying and Qin Zhiyong are very good at martial arts.If you want to deal with yourself, you don't need any conspiracy at all.

Those who play tricks are weak.

The strong don't bother to use conspiracy and tricks, but directly crush them.

Cui Tianba went to the bed and said, "Go to sleep, go to sleep. Tomorrow morning, we can take the little Taoist back to the capital to return to life. We have an explanation to the prince."

………………

the next morning.

Chen Zhengying made an amazing decision in front of all the villagers.

Take Yang Yuqian as his apprentice!

Yang Yuqian was stunned.Unexpectedly, he really became Chen Zhengying's disciple.Doesn't it mean that in the future, I can ask Chen Zhengying for advice on Taijiquan in an open and honest manner, and I can also learn the essence of Neijiaquan and the silk winding strength?
OK.that is really good.

Chen Zhengying accepted disciples, and Qin Zhiyong and Cui Tianba, as outsiders, became witnesses.

Seeing Yang Yuqian standing there stupidly, the second uncle Chen Zhengzhou pushed him and said, "Boy, what are you doing standing there? Hurry up and kowtow to your master for tea!"

Yang Yuqian came back to his senses, a little at a loss, kowtowed three times to Chen Zhengying on the spot, and offered tea.

The apprenticeship ceremony is very simple.But for Yang Yuqian, it means a lot.For Chenjiagou, the significance is equally great.

Chen Zhengying broke the ancestral motto of "pass on the inside but not the outside", so that Tai Chi can be widely spread and carried forward in the future.

Chen Zhengzhou whispered to Qin Zhiyong: "Boy Qin, what did you say to my elder brother last night? It made him change his mind and take Yang Yuqian as his apprentice."

Qin Zhiyong smiled and said, "I didn't say anything. I just had a casual chat with the village chief."

The ancestral precepts are important, and more importantly, the essence and lingering strength of Neijiaquan cannot be lost.

Qin Zhiyong taught children to read, not like Chen Zhengying, but taught them all.

As long as the children are willing to learn.Qin Zhiyong asked for advice.

Compared with Qin Zhiyong, Chen Zhengying's heart and structure are inevitably a little smaller.The arrival of Cui Tianba made Chen Zhengying figure it out. If he really had a chance, the essence of Taijiquan and the silk winding power would be lost.At that time, even if he died, he would have no face to meet the ancestors of the Chen family.

What kind of person is Yang Yuqian?Chen Zhengying's heart is like a mirror.

A boy who came to learn boxing suddenly came in from the village. As the village head and head of the sect, it was impossible for Chen Zhengying not to pay attention to Yang Yuqian.Yang Yuqian is able to endure hardships, has a high level of comprehension, and has a good character. He is an embryo of martial arts.

Accepting Yang Yuqian as a disciple is not necessarily a bad thing.

Qin Zhiyong said to Cui Tianba: "Coach Cui, we should go."

Cui Tianba nodded and said, "Okay. Let's go now."

Just out of the village.

Yang Yuqian chased after him.

Qin Zhiyong asked, "Agan, what are you doing here?"

Yang Yuqian said gratefully: "Mr. Qin, I know that Senior Chen Zhengying is willing to accept me as an apprentice. You must have convinced him. Thank you, Mr. Qin."

Qin Zhiyong patted Yang Yuqian on the shoulder and said, "I didn't help you with anything. The reason you were able to learn authentic Taijiquan from Senior Chen Zhengying was because you, Yang Yuqian, respected your teacher, had martial virtues, and were good enough. If you No matter how talented you are, Senior Chen Zhengying will not pass on the essence of your internal boxing. The benevolent is invincible, it is not a lie."

Yang Yuqian nodded and said, "Mr. Qin, I will remember what you said."

………………

When passing through the county seat, Cui Tianba bought a carriage.It's a long way to go to the capital, and walking is not enough.

Qin Zhiyong got into the carriage without saying a word.

Cui Tianba thought to himself: "The little Taoist really doesn't treat himself as an outsider. Could it be that he doesn't know that he is now half a prisoner?"

Qin Zhiyong and Cui Tianba are different.His mentality is correct, calm and natural, full of energy, without any slavishness.Of course, there is no aloof aloofness.

This shows that Qin Zhiyong has no prejudice against others.Even if he meets a beggar and an emperor, he will treat them equally in his heart.

Cui Tianba looks domineering and fierce, but he is still just a slave in his bones.In the face of those who are stronger than oneself, he bows his knees; in front of those who are weaker than himself, he is brutal and domineering.In fact, people like Cui Tianba are the most hateful and shameful.It's just that he doesn't know it.

It's like maggots that can't smell the stench on their own body.

Cui Tianba's ideas are deeply ingrained, and Qin Zhiyong's virtue is not enough to change his ideas.

Converting others is something that only sages can do.

Qin Zhiyong is currently just an ordinary scholar, and he has not even reached the state of "fixation".It is far from possible to convert others.

Of course, Qin Zhiyong had no prejudice against Cui Tianba.The same rice can raise hundreds of kinds of people.It is normal for people like Cui Tianba to exist in the world.

Qin Zhiyong just didn't want to join forces with him.

Qin Zhiyong said to Cui Tianba: "Coach Cui, get in the car. What are you waiting for?"

Qin Zhiyong has a refined temperament and a strong aura, and he has vaguely become the person who makes up his mind on the road.The two palace spies took it for granted, there was nothing wrong with it.As if it should be.

Cui Tianba snorted coldly and got into the carriage.

Two secret agents of the palace sat in front of the carriage and drove the carriage.

………………

It took nearly a month to hurry.

The traffic is really inconvenient.

When he was about to arrive in the capital, Qin Zhiyong smelled a strange and pungent fragrance in the carriage.

Qin Zhiyong's physical fitness has improved in all aspects. His eyesight, hearing, taste, and smell are all sharper than before.

There are oddities.

Qin Zhiyong held his breath and thought to himself.

"Stop." Qin Zhiyong suddenly shouted.

One of the spies said, "Mr. Qin, what's the matter?" But he still stopped the carriage.

Qin Zhiyong got out of the carriage and said, "Come out to get some air."

Walking to the side of the road, Qin Zhiyong took a few deep breaths, exhaled the turbid air, and felt much refreshed all of a sudden.

Cui Tianba sat on the carriage and said with a sneer: "Little Taoist priest, you are going to the capital soon, and you are wasting your time. Could it be that you regret it and don't want to go to Duanwang's Mansion?"

Qin Zhiyong said calmly: "Qin will never regret what he promised. It's you, Coach Cui, who poisoned the carriage just now. If I hadn't been vigilant, I would have fallen for you. Let's go Wang Fu, I am discussing martial arts and boxing with Prince Duan. If I am poisoned and lose all my martial arts, I will end badly, but you, Coach Cui, will inevitably be accused of deceiving the prince. Do you think that Prince Duan will easily forgive you all? Three?"

Cui Tianba's expression changed.

The faces of the two spies were not good either.They glanced at Cui Tianba, but dared not speak out.

I really don't know what Cui Tianba is thinking, what kind of mental state is it?He was about to go to the capital, and he even prescribed medicine to Qin Zhiyong.

Along the way, Qin Zhiyong behaved very easy-going, not aggressive at all.

This matter let Qin Zhiyong know that the human heart is the most unreasonable and unfathomable thing.It is easy to understand that some people do things that harm others and benefit oneself; but it is difficult to understand that there are also people who do things that harm others and benefit oneself.

Cui Tianba drugged Qin Zhiyong to harm others and benefit himself.

But he did it anyway.

At the same time, Qin Zhiyong also knew his own shortcomings.

After all, Qin Zhiyong is just like ordinary people, he is made of flesh and blood and has no supernatural powers.Boxing and spiritual cultivation cannot guarantee absolute safety.There are many things that can hurt you.

For example, poison.

Cui Tianba would not admit that he poisoned himself even if he was beaten to death: "Little Taoist, you fart. You say that I poisoned you, what evidence do you have?"

Qin Zhiyong didn't argue with Cui Tianba, because it was meaningless.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, after the pungent smell dissipated, Qin Zhiyong got into the carriage again.

"Teacher Cui, I would like to advise you that it is best not to do anything in the future. Otherwise, you will harm others and yourself, and you will not end well." After Qin Zhiyong finished speaking, he closed his eyes and meditated in silence.

　Ask for tickets, ask for collections.
