Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 508 Emperor Yan's Legacy, Lie Shan Clan.

Qin Zhiyong couldn't even find Niu Teng now.Some methods of the monster race are better than those of the human monks.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Prime Minister, Niu Teng left as soon as he left, it doesn't matter. He can't go back to court again."

Jiang Ziya nodded and could only give up.Otherwise, what else can we do?Want Niu Teng?
Qin Zhiyong took Ji Song along the street, wandering casually.

Ji Song has always stayed in the palace.

Inside and outside the palace, separated by a wall, it is simply two worlds.Ji Song widened his eyes, curious about everything.

Qin Zhiyong took Ji Song's little hand and said, "Is there any fun outside?"

Ji Song nodded immediately, and said excitedly: "It's fun. It's much more fun than being in the palace."

How many people are there in the palace?And those people are all respectful to Ji Song, which is extremely boring.Where is the outside world fun.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Then let's go out to play often."

After all, Ji Song was only six years old. He was young and had limited physical strength. After walking half a mile, he was a little tired.Normally, there must be a servant to hug him or carry him.But Qin Zhiyong turned a blind eye to Ji Song's exhaustion.

Ji Song couldn't hold on any longer and said, "Teacher, I'm tired. Let's rest for a while before leaving."

Qin Zhiyong said: "I'll teach you a simple breathing method. If you follow it, you won't be tired soon."

Ji Song breathed according to Qin Zhiyong's method, and it really worked, and soon recovered his strength.

Ji Song said: "Teacher, your breathing method really works. I'm not tired now, and I feel warm all over."

Qin Zhiyong said: "You need to practice more in the future. This method of breathing is used to nourish qi, blood and spirit. If you practice to a high level, there will be unexpected effects."

the following few days.

Qin Zhiyong took Ji Song to walk in the streets and alleys of Kyoto every day, and ate all the delicious food.

this day.

Qin Zhiyong said to Ji Song, "Let's go to the slave market."

Ji Song had some doubts in his eyes.At his age, he still doesn't understand what a slave market is.

Qin Zhiyong brought Ji Song to the largest slave market in Kyoto.

Human trafficking here is reasonable and legal.

From the slave owner's point of view, slaves are not human beings. Like animals, they belong to the owner's property and can be bought and sold at will.

Ji Song looked at the ragged and unkempt slaves around him, and said in surprise, "Teacher, these are all human beings? Why are they different from us?"

Qin Zhiyong nodded and said, "They are all human beings, of course they are the same as us. It's just that they don't have enough to eat, don't wear warm clothes, and have to do coolies every day. They look a little different from us. If you don't believe me, you can buy a few slaves When you go back, you will know whether what the teacher said is true."

The slaves were chronically malnourished and most of them did not live past the age of 25.

Ji Song nodded and said: "Okay. I will listen to the teacher and buy a few slaves to go back. But... I have no money with me."

Ji Song thought that Qin Zhiyong would give him money directly, but he didn't expect Qin Zhiyong to say: "No money? Then go make money."

Gentlemen love fortune, in a proper way.

It is necessary to instill correct ideas in Ji Song.

Wealth does not appear out of thin air, but needs to be obtained through labor and wisdom.

Ji Song said shyly, "Teacher, I don't know how to make money."

Qin Zhiyong smiled and said, "I'll teach you."

The power of money is actually very terrifying.

The downfall of each dynasty seems to have various reasons on the surface.But in the final analysis, there are still economic and financial problems within the court.

This was the case in the Ming Dynasty, and it was also the case in the Qing Dynasty.

At the end of the dynasty, the court could not come up with money, so the court had to wait to be overthrown.

In order to stimulate the vitality of all classes in Dazhou, Qin Zhiyong had to teach Ji Song how to make money and how to spend it.It is always easier to make government orders from the top down than from the bottom up.

From top to bottom, it is called reform.From the bottom up, it is not a reform, but a revolution.

Wealth is taken from the people and used for the people.This is what the co-owner of the human race should do.

When everyone is rich, there is a foundation for practice and exploration.Not enough to eat, talk about cultivation, talk about exploration, it is a castle in the air, meaningless.

Food is the most important thing for the people, which is not empty talk.

The conversation between Qin Zhiyong and Ji Song was overheard by a scruffy old man sitting around the corner.

The old man's eyes flashed, and he glanced at Qin Zhiyong and Ji Song.

Qin Zhiyong's perception is so keen, even if someone is staring at him from a hundred miles away, he can sense it.

Qin Zhiyong looked up at the slovenly old man.

I saw the sloppy old man, as if nothing had happened, soliciting business and fortune-telling.

Qin Zhiyong said to Ji Song: "There is an old man over there who is doing a fortune-telling. Come on, let's go and do a fortune-telling."

Qin Zhiyong pulled Ji Song, sat in front of the sloppy old man, and said with a smile: "Street fortune-telling? Either a powerful hermit, or a small liar. The old man's cultivation is advanced, so he must not be a liar. It is said that Prime Minister Jiang was in Chaoge Cheng also did fortune-telling for others. I don’t know if the old man’s calculation is accurate or not?”

The aura on the sloppy old man was very subdued, if he hadn't just glanced at Qin Zhiyong, his mood would have fluctuated a bit.

Qin Zhiyong really might not notice him.

Those who can hide from Qin Zhiyong's perception are all remarkable people.

The old man said with a smile: "For sure, it depends on who it is for. Mr. Qin is an emperor's master, his cultivation is unpredictable, and he suppressed the general Niu Teng with one move. It can be said that he is famous in the capital. Today I can see Mr. Qin , I just realized that you are stronger than the old man imagined."

The old man broke Qin Zhiyong's identity.

But Qin Zhiyong was not surprised at all.

Qin Zhiyong nodded and said: "It seems that the old man is here to wait for Qin specifically today. I don't know if the old man's hexagram counts or not?"

The old man said: "I don't know what Mr. Qin wants to count, official luck? Wealth luck? Or marriage?"

Qin Zhiyong shook his head.

Official luck?As the emperor's teacher, I can be said to be an extremely human minister in the world; fortune?If you want to make money, it is a piece of cake. It only takes a few years to become wealthy; marriage?Qin Zhiyong has no plans to get married yet.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Neither. I want to ask, when will the human race really rise up and no longer be bullied by monsters. Can the old man answer me?"

The old man was stunned, and smiled wryly: "Mr. Qin's question... this old man can't answer it. When the human race will really rise, the old man has no say. Mr. Qin's xinxing cultivation is no longer below the old man, why don't you figure it out yourself Woolen cloth."

Qin Zhiyong laughed: "That's right, it doesn't count if you say it, and it doesn't count if I say it. It takes the whole human race to say it. Dare I ask who the old man is?"

The old man said: "Old man Lie Shan is the head of the family, Lie Shan Yuanhong."

Qin Zhiyong said: "Lieshan clan? You are actually a descendant of Emperor Yan."

Lie Shan Yuanhong said: "Hey, the descendants of the Lie Shan Clan are not up to the mark and are ashamed of their ancestors. Mr. Qin, if you have time, you might as well come to my Lie Shan Clan as a guest."

Qin Zhiyong nodded and said, "I can't ask for it. If I have the chance, I will definitely come and visit in person."

The Lie Shan clan is the descendant of Emperor Yan, so there must be some very ancient inheritance.

Qin Zhiyong wanted to study the mysteries of the celestial beings. Perhaps ancient families like the Lie Shan family and the Lian Shan family could provide him with some help.

Both Qin Zhiyong and Lie Shan Yuanhong are strong in the human race, and they are unwilling to be oppressed by the monster race.The demands of the two are the same, and there is no conflict of interest, so there is a basis for cooperation.

Lie Shan Yuanhong said: "The old man is at home waiting for Mr. Qin to drive."

Qin Zhiyong stood up, pulled Ji Song and said, "Let's go. Find a way to make money to buy some slaves."

…………

Inside a cave.

Niu Teng knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to the black shadow sitting on the high platform: "My lord, you have great supernatural powers, and please help me restore my cultivation."

Niu Teng's cultivation is still there, but he just can't use it.

Before, Niu Teng was a perfect monk of the Earth Immortal, and he also practiced the kung fu of the Yaozu. His thinking was so fast that thousands of thoughts would flash into his brain in an instant.

After Qin Zhiyong suppressed Niu Teng with his palm, Niu Teng remained dazed and unresponsive.In this state, not to mention comprehending the law, comprehending the Dao, it is impossible to guarantee that the cultivation base will not regress.

Niu Teng could only pin all his hopes on Soi Ying.

Heiying snorted coldly: "I told you a long time ago, keep a low profile, keep a low profile. But you actually went to provoke Qin Zhiyong. Who is to blame for you making this like this? Qin Zhiyong's methods are extremely clever. Yuanshenzhong has tampered with it, and I have no law to rule your situation."

Niu Teng looked frustrated, and said: "That kid Qin Zhiyong is just a casual cultivator, who would have thought that he is so powerful?"

The black shadow said angrily: "Who told you that Qin Zhiyong is a casual cultivator? A few days ago, Kui Mulang sent me a letter, which mentioned Qin Zhiyong. Do you think I will go to the capital to save you at the risk? The God Whip is located in Kyoto, if you are hit by the God Whip, even a strong Jinxian will either die or be injured."

Niu Teng's eyes were a bit miserable, and he said, "My lord, what should I do now?" In fact, Niu Teng felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had known this, he would not have joined the Yaozu.

The person Niu Teng hates more is Qin Zhiyong. If it weren't for Qin Zhiyong, he would never be so downcast, like a bereaved dog.
