Although Confucius had no cultivation in his life, his understanding of the magical power of space was still not comparable to that of ordinary people. The moment the space in Qufu Palace was imprisoned, Confucius' eyes suddenly froze.
Everyone froze, but a golden light flashed between Kongqiu's brows, and the broken golden body of the Dharma helped Kongqiu break through the confinement at this moment.
Although he didn't get up, he vaguely heard the conversation outside.
It wasn't until Sheng Jiutian and Yang Hu left Qufu Palace, everything in the outside world recovered, and the chaotic sounds of the disciples were heard, that Confucius stood up slowly, stood at the window, and looked at the panicked outside world.
"Victory over Jiutian? What a victory over Jiutian!" Confucius squinted and looked into the distance.
Sheng Jiutian's ability made Confucius fearful. At that moment, it seemed as if Sheng Jiutian had mastered the entire time and space.
As for Yang Hu who transformed into himself, Kong Qiu didn't pay much attention. If he could suppress him once, he could suppress him a second time.
There was a panic outside, but no one dared to disturb Confucius. It was not until the next day that anyone came to report Confucius.
"Teacher, the student is incompetent and failed to take good notice of that monster. Please punish him!" Duanmu Ci and several classmates suddenly showed bitterness.
"It's okay, I don't blame you!" Confucius shook his head.
---------------
Lu State, Ji Mansion.
Ji Sunsi looked at Shao Zhengmao, who had a gloomy expression.
"The tiger demon has disappeared, and no one knows where it has gone!" Ji Sunsi said with a bitter smile.
"Bastard!" Shao Zhengmao's face was gloomy.
"Is the tiger demon so important?" Ji Sunsi asked curiously.
"You know nothing. Do you think it's so easy to take away King Lu's Qi? With the tiger demon, I can do it easily, but...!" Shaozheng said in a bitter voice.
"What? That tiger demon can help me take away the Qi of King Lu and make me become King of Lu?" Ji Sunsun suddenly stared and exclaimed.
"Otherwise, what do you think?" Shaozheng glanced at Ji Sunsi.
"Ah, it's all my fault, Shao Zhengmao, I misunderstood you. If you had told me earlier, I would...!" Ji Sunsun immediately regretted it.
"What's the use of telling you earlier? If I let you get Qufu Queli, you still can't get it?" Shaozheng Mao said coldly.
Although Ji Sunsi knew that Shaozheng Mao had not finished his words, he understood that he must have missed a great opportunity, and he immediately felt regretful.
"Damn Confucius, if he hadn't provoked me so much and wasted time, I would have taken action long ago. If I took action early, I would definitely be able to suppress the devil tiger before it regains its strength!" Shao Zhengmao said angrily.
"But, but Confucius is now protected by the Meng family, I...!" Ji Sunsi felt bitter for a while.
Shao Zhengmao's face was gloomy and he was silent for a while: "Humph, I will defeat him!"
"Shao Zhengmao, don't act recklessly!" Ji Sunsi said worriedly.
After all, Ji Sunsi saw Confucius' previous terror. Obviously, Shaozhengmao was not as good as Confucius. If he recklessly looked for trouble, what would he do if Confucius got angry with him
"Hmph, don't worry. As Li Er's student, I will naturally not do anything shameful. I will go back to my teacher's place immediately and report to him!" Shaozhengmao said in a deep voice.
"Ah? Are you leaving now?" Ji Sunsi asked worriedly.
However, how could Shaozhengmao stay? He left on the second day. Ji Sunsi was left alone and felt annoyed.
Having offended the great sage Confucius, what should I do now
---------------
Great Zhou Dynasty! Chaodu!
A land of palaces surrounded by purple air. There are two words "Collection of Books" on the palace.
Shaozhengmao looked respectfully at a man in Taoist robes.
"Brother, what did the teacher say?" Shao Zhengmao looked expectantly at the man in Taoist robes in front of him.
The man in Taoist robes glanced at Shaozhengmao, frowned and said: "The teacher is a little interested in what you said, but let me tell you again, when you see the teacher later, you must not be rude. The teacher is devoted to the Tao and does not have much energy to spend on other things. This is a place where you are not allowed to make any unreasonable demands. If you have anything, please tell me later! Don’t make the teacher angry!"
"Definitely, definitely!" Shaozhengmao said respectfully.
"Come with me!" the man in Taoist robes said solemnly.
Shao Zhengmao followed closely and entered the library hall. As soon as he entered, he saw countless bookshelves, row after row, arranged very neatly, and the bookshelves were filled with books.
Shaozhengmao knew that these were all the books in the Great Zhou Dynasty, accumulated over nearly 10,000 years in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and enshrined by all the small countries in the world. It can be said that all the books in the world are in this palace.
The hall was very long and there were many books. Shao Zhengmao followed the senior brother and walked quietly for a long time before arriving at a place with a skylight.
The skylight seemed to be surrounded by purple air, and one could vaguely see an old man leaning on the soft cave in the purple air, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, looking carefully through the light of the skylight.
Two Taoist boys stood beside him, motionless and ready to serve.
With the purple energy lingering, Shaozheng Mao did not dare to raise his head to look at the old man's face, so he could only follow his senior brother and bow down respectfully. Pay obeisance to this teacher, Li Er, who is the supreme moral leader in the world and has the most powerful spirit in a country. Some people already call him Lao Tzu.
"Teacher, Shao Zhengmao is here!" The senior brother said respectfully.
I looked at the bamboo slip in my hand, and seemed to have just seen the beauty. I did not put down the bamboo slip, but said: "Tell me again everything about your trip to the State of Lu, from beginning to end!"
"Yes! When the student went to Lu State, he went to Ji Mansion...!" Shaozheng Maozheng was about to explain.
"Shao Zhengmao, the teacher asked you to tell me from the beginning to the end. He is not asking you to avoid the important and take the easy. He is asking you to detail everything, starting with why you went to the State of Lu!" The senior brother at the side glared.
This young boy, Zheng Mao, has never been taken seriously by the teacher because he is rather cunning. He can only be regarded as a registered student and cannot be taught by the teacher himself. Although he is talented, his cleverness makes the teacher dislike it. Now, the teacher speaks Ask, given the opportunity, you actually dare to be clever
The senior brother looked like he hated iron for not being able to become steel.
Shaozhengmao's face froze and he immediately lowered his head. Don't dare to look directly at me.
I also continued to look at the bamboo slips, as if I didn't notice Shaozhengmao's little thoughts. However, Shaozhengmao understood that in today's world, there is almost no one who can hide from me.
"When the student was sorting out the old books in the Zhou Dynasty, he found in a historical scroll that the former Zhou Gongdan sealed a tiger alien race. The tiger demon had the magical power of space and could summon the magic of the universe to determine the number of Qi. Student, The student became greedy and wanted to seize his magical power, so he came back to offer it to the teacher, asking the teacher to give the student the qualification to listen to the Tao! The student had no other greed, but was eager to seek the Tao, so he quietly went to the State of Lu. Teacher...!" Shaozhengmao suddenly said said.
"Stop talking nonsense, keep talking. The teacher is listening and didn't ask you to stop. Don't go off topic!" The senior brother frowned.
"Yes, when the student arrived in Lu State, I asked the Ji family of Sanhuan to help me circle Qufu Queli first. In order not to hurt the innocent, I asked the Ji family to help me take the people away first and wait for me to bring out the tiger demon. But , that Ji Sunsi did not do things well, and the result... , and later... !" Shaozhengmao described everything that had happened before in detail.
Regarding Lao Tzu, Shao Zhengmao didn't dare to hide anything, and told everything in detail.
After finishing everything, I suddenly put down the bamboo slip out of curiosity.
"One word 'property'?" I asked curiously.
"Yes, the student sent someone to find out. The man named Confucius advocated 'Zhou Rites', but his 'Rites' surpassed those of Zhou Gongdan. Student...!" Shaozhengmao explained with a wry smile.
I pondered for a moment, then showed a slight smile and said: "It seems that someone is using you to explore the road to Lu country!"
"Use?" Shao Zhengmao said in surprise.
That was a secret that I discovered by accident. How could I use it? However, when I opened my mouth, Shao Zhengmao naturally did not dare to refute.
"It's really interesting. In Zhoudu, where I am in charge, there are still people who can do things secretly?" There was a flash of surprise in my tone.
"Students don't know...!" Shaozhengmao suddenly said in panic.
"That's all, your temper is like this. It's normal not to stay early without benefit. I will handle the affairs of the capital. Tell me about Confucius!" I said.
Shaozhengmao looked startled. Thinking of being embarrassed in front of Confucius, a flash of resentment suddenly flashed in his eyes, describing Confucius as extremely arrogant.
"The teacher asked you to describe it, not for you to slander based on your personal bias!" The senior brother on the side suddenly glared.
"No, no, it's true. I sent someone to inquire about it. Confucius looked down on the teacher. I heard that before he started teaching, he inquired about the teacher many times. He even called the teacher by his old name 'Lao Dan', with no trace of emotion in his tone. A little respect!" Shao Zhengmao immediately swore.
"You're so brave!" The senior brother's eyes widened.
"Besides, that Confucius didn't practice cultivation either. He was just a mortal. He wanted to imitate the teacher, but he didn't overestimate his abilities!" Shao Zhengmao said again.
"Having a mortal body has the benefits of being a mortal!" I said lightly.
"What's the benefit? Please ask the teacher for advice." The senior brother also showed curiosity.
"Faced with a ferocious beast with a powerful aura, would a person with the same level of cultivation feel the stronger, or a mortal?" I looked at the student.
"Because the cultivation level is almost the same, I don't care much about the other person's aura. But an ordinary mortal can feel death at any time, so he is naturally more sensitive to the ferocious beast. He is afraid of the beast and has a stronger sense of it!" The senior brother thought for a while and said.
"A truth! When facing the way of heaven, you should have a heart of awe. The stronger your cultivation level, the easier it is to lose your heart of awe. Confucius, like me, has a heart of awe for the way of heaven and earth. With the most ordinary body, I feel the most The Supreme Way!" I explained.
"Teacher, how can Confucius compare with you?" Shao Zhengmao said flatteringly.
I shook my head: "From your description of Confucius, I feel that this is probably an old friend!"
"Old friend?" Shaozhengmao asked in surprise.
"Teacher, this is a portrait of Confucius. He has a rather handsome appearance and a dome on his head, but it's not very good...!" The senior brother handed over the portrait.
I shook my head, obviously knowing that pictures cannot explain the problem.
He lowered his head and glanced at Shaozhengmao: "Do you have any grudge against Confucius?"
"No, no, student, student...!" Shao Zhengmao suddenly showed a look of horror.
"It doesn't matter. The dispute between schools of thought is open and honest. As long as there are no evil or evil methods, I have no objection!" I said calmly.
"No, no! The students are just dissatisfied with his way. The students think that the teacher's way is the best in the world!" Shao Zhengmao said worriedly.
"I don't exclude you from going to him to fight, but the premise is that you really learn the skills. From today on, when I preach in the future, you can come and listen. When will you feel that you have learned something? , you can go find Confucius Doudao yourself!" I said calmly.
"Ah? Thank you, teacher, thank you, teacher!" Shaozhengmao said with great joy.
"Teacher, this Confucius...!" The senior brother at the side said worriedly.
"Although I don't know who his old friend is yet, if he is really capable, no one can suppress him. If he is not capable, no one can help him. Let him go!" I said calmly.
"Yes!" The senior brother nodded.
I held up the bamboo slips again, and the senior brother and Shaozheng Mao bowed respectfully and left.
After exiting, the senior brother solemnly said: "Shao Zhengmao, you must study hard. When you go back to find Confucius, you must not lose the teacher's face!"
"Senior brother, don't worry, don't worry, I will work hard, I will work hard, and I will crush Confucius's path under my feet!" Shao Zhengmao said excitedly.
"Just let's compete. You are still so eager to win!" Senior Brother shook his head.
