Chapter 3: Tao Canon

Views:

Fang Zhengzheng's voice was not loud, but the village chief immediately trembled when he walked to the door, because the problem Fang Zhengzheng mentioned was the problem he was most afraid of.

If these words were said by an adult, the village chief would really have to think about the impact, because normally when encountering this kind of thing, he would compete in advance before deciding on a quota, but this time it was different. , the one who came was the Shenhou Mansion. This kind of opportunity was so rare that it had never appeared in decades.

Touching a few silver ingots in his trouser pocket, the village chief's face turned pale and red. Finally he gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and prepared to leave. He knew very well that if he missed this opportunity, I'm afraid there won't be such a good opportunity again in the future.

Li's sister-in-law's expression was relatively normal. After all, she was a "major customer" who had given money to her, so she was not afraid of the village chief's regrets.

"Oh, what do children know? How can you have so much time to arrange any kind of competition? If you have this time, you might as well ask your mother to teach you more knowledge about hunting in the mountains, so as not to know everything when you grow up. I don’t understand…” Sister-in-law of the Li family pretended to be an elder.

"Hunting in the mountains?" Fang Zhengyi didn't wait for Qin Xuelian to speak, and immediately looked at Li's sister-in-law with a confused expression: "Aunt Li, I heard that you know everything about the mountains, but do you know which snake has the longest lifespan?" ?"

"Which snake has the longest lifespan?" Li's sister-in-law was stunned, looking at Fang Zhengyi with a look of fool on her face: "Zhengzheng, there are the most snakes and insects on Canngling Mountain. There are three-eyed snakes, small-winged snakes, Silver-clawed snake... Silly boy, who knows which snake has the longest lifespan?"

Outside the door, the village chief who was about to leave also heard Fang Zhengzheng's question and sighed inwardly. This child is really stupid. Why does he care about the longevity of snakes? You should pay more attention to the type of snake and its attack method.

"What a pity. I originally wanted to tell you." Fang Zhengzheng shook his head with regret.

"Oh? You know?" Sister-in-law of the Li family was a little surprised.

The village chief was also a little surprised. Can a six-year-old child know which snake has the longest lifespan? It's unlikely. Even the veteran hunters in the village who have been in the village for decades are not sure about this kind of question.

"Well, it's a three-inch snake, don't you know?" Fang Zhengzheng looked at the two people at the door with an expression that looked like a fool.

"A three-inch indestructible 'snake'?!" Being looked at by a six-year-old child with such eyes, Li's sister-in-law was stunned for a moment, and then the fat all over her body began to tremble.

Is this little brat scolding himself? How can this be? How could a six-year-old kid come up with such a way to curse? No, this must have been taught by Qin Xuelian.

"you… "

"Stop talking, let's go!" The village chief's face was also a little red from holding back, and he couldn't tell that when Fang Zhengzheng was scolding Li's sister-in-law, he was also scolding him.

To show off the prestige of the village chief? Arguing with a six-year-old

After all, the village chief still wanted to have some face. He already felt guilty about this matter, and then he thought of the person in the inner room of the Fang family who had never spoken...

Without waiting for Li's sister-in-law to speak again, she picked her up and turned around to leave.

The Li family's sister-in-law wanted to say a few more words, but while being pulled by the village chief, she thought that if she said more, wouldn't she just comply with the phrase "a three-inch snake"

Suddenly, the words came to your mouth, swallowed, and then came to your mouth again, swallowed again.

After going back and forth three or four times, Li's sister-in-law was already a little far away.

Qin Xuelian looked at the village chief and Li's sister-in-law who had "fleeed", and then at Fang Zhengyi, who looked "innocent" next to her. She was a little surprised. She didn't understand where Fang Zhengyi learned this question from, but What he is more concerned about at the moment is the issue of quota for children's examination.

because…

She was really unwilling.

He gritted his teeth and was just about to chase him out when a coughing sound came from the room inside the door.

"Stop chasing..." A sighing voice came out.

"They are clearly bullying! Sister-in-law of the Li family must have stuffed her money! The four fire-feathered chickens are definitely not the point. Our Fang family is poor, but I don't care about this. Nanshan Village has not seen outsiders for decades. , this time the Shenhou Mansion sent people over, and there was another child test. It was agreed that children between the ages of six and eight would have the opportunity to participate. Zhenger was right, no matter what, we had to compete first. Why should the village chief be alone? Who has the final say? If we really rank them by age, even the tigers of the Li family won’t be ranked. I can’t let Zheng’er lag behind others. I don’t know how long I’ll have to wait for such an opportunity next time!”

Qin Xuelian bit her lip, stretched out her hand and grabbed Fang Zhengzheng's little arm tightly.

Fang Zhengzheng was sighing secretly that he seemed too young and his words had no weight after all, when he felt his little arm hurting from being pulled by Qin Xuelian, and he suddenly grinned.

As a couple, just discuss it. What does it mean to pinch me hard

"It hurts..." Fang Zhengzheng couldn't move his hand, so he could only make a sound to protest.

"Oh, Zheng'er, my mother's heart aches too. I think that when the green fire wolf came down from Cangling Mountain, if your father hadn't stepped forward and stood in front of him for the sake of the village, he wouldn't have died. One arm. At first, those people were so moved that they called you daddy a hero. But within a few years, they began to bully people. The prey was divided into small portions, and the houses were not even close to living in. No quota for the children’s examination will be given!”

When Qin Xuelian talked about her arms, she was obviously a little excited and squeezed her hands tighter.

Fang Zhengzhi's forehead was sweating, the veins on the chubby hands were pinched out, and there was a trace of worry that was inappropriate for his age on his round face.

My mother is beautiful, patient, gentle, and virtuous, but she is just a little short-sighted and has a too big brain, right? No wonder I had no choice but to get married after being told by my father for a few years. I clearly meant that my arm hurt, okay

"Stop talking, it's not good for children to hear these things. Zheng'er is still young now, and there is still a long way to go in the future. Since someone has come to the Shenhou Mansion this time, it means that they have noticed our Nanshan Village. If we can really set up a Daotang, then our future life in Nanshan Village will be promising!" The father's voice sounded again in the house.

"Hope? I really hope it belongs to someone else. Judging from the village chief's attitude just now, I guess even if the Shenhou Mansion does set up a Taoist temple in the village, it will definitely not be worthy of Zheng'er!"

The more Qin Xuelian talked, the angrier she became, and her hands squeezed tighter and tighter, almost lifting Fang Zhengzheng up.

Mom, my dear mother, why don’t you be so “rude”! Fang Zhengzheng was about to burst into tears. How could this make a man with a mental age of over 20 years old feel so embarrassed

"Mom! My hand, my hand hurts..." Fang Zhengzheng felt that if he didn't say anything, he would really die here.

"Oh, Zheng'er, what happened to you? Who beat your hand like this?" Qin Xuelian looked down suddenly and found that Fang Zhengzhi's little arms were a little blue, and immediately wondered if it was just now I was bullied outside.

Thinking of her sadness, Qin Xuelian began to cry softly again.

"Zheng'er, you are my mother's hope in this life. You must remember that this world respects the 'Tao of all things'. Don't look at the Li family next door who is now powerful, but that is just brute strength. You can’t join the stream!”

"What is the way of all things?" Fang Zhengzheng blinked his dark eyes and asked curiously, raising his little head.

Fang Zhengzheng is the kind of person who likes to be leisurely and comfortable. Unfortunately, his family is really poor now, and he can't even have enough to eat. If he continues to be leisurely, he may be bullied like today, and he may happen more often. .

Leisure is leisure, but the kind of leisure that is bullied every day can only be called a coward.

"The way of all things is... Haha, in fact, I don't know too much about it, but I know one thing. The way of all things comes from the "Tao Canon", so Zheng'er, if you want to become stronger in the future, you must be literate and read! "

Literacy and reading? ! Isn’t it cultivation

Fang Zhengzheng became more and more curious. He couldn't understand. What was the relationship between becoming stronger and becoming literate

"Mom, have you read the "Tao Canon"?" Fang Zhengzheng regretted a little after asking this question. As a mother, she didn't even know the words, so how could she have read the "Tao Canon"

"Haha, you are right to ask this. Although Wei Niang has not read it, when she was a child, she went to the city and passed by the Fucheng Taoist Hall and secretly heard a few words. However, Wei Niang is illiterate and can't remember much. , let me think about it..."

Qin Xuelian smiled mysteriously, then gently raised her voice, put her right hand behind her back, raised her head lightly, and imitated Mr. Daotang, and began to "preach and teach" Fang Zhengzheng.

"Ahem, there is an article that starts with... By the way, Tao can be said, it is very Tao, it can be named, it is very famous... What's next? I forgot... "

When Fang Zhengzheng was surprised that his mother actually knew the "Tao Canon", his eyes suddenly widened.

Road to Road, very Avenue…

"Tao Canon"? , isn’t this the Tao Te Ching from the previous life

"Don't be impatient. I have forgotten this article. I remember another article. In the past, the Yellow Emperor created the Qimen. There are four thousand three hundred and twenty bureaus. The year is divided into eight sections according to the Eight Diagrams. There are three Qi in each section, and the annual rate is twenty. There are four qi. There are three phases of qi: heaven, earth and man, and there are seventy-two phases of age..."

Fang Zhengzheng's heart was beating very fast. Isn't this "Qi Men Dun Jia"

"Later... wait, mother will tell you another story, haha..."

Qin Xuelian smiled awkwardly, and then, seeing Fang Zhengzheng's slightly blushing expression, a look of pride appeared on his face. It seemed that his son was shocked by her, right

Qin Xuelian was somewhat proud of being able to show her "talent" in front of her son. She cleared her throat again and continued to read.

"The Master said: 'Isn't it right to learn and practice it over time? Isn't it a joy to have friends come from afar? Isn't it true that a person who doesn't know and is stunned is not a gentleman?'..."

When Fang Zhengzheng listened to his mother's hesitant sentences, he couldn't react at all. He felt as if he was stepping on the clouds. Who dares to say that what he was reading was not "The Analects of Confucius"

Why is there Confucius and Mencius in this world? Will there be hundreds of classics? What happened to such a coincidence

Moreover, what is the "Tao of all things" contained in this "Tao Canon"

Wait a moment…

If my mother remembers it correctly, then there are indeed no Four Books and Five Classics in this world, and there are no great classics, because the Four Books, Five Classics and hundreds of classics all have only one name, and that is "Dao Canon"!

As a top student majoring in ancient history and literature, Fang Zhengzheng dare not say that he can memorize the entire so-called "Dao Canon", but there is definitely no problem in reading through the explanations.

This is going to be a meteoric rise! Even the gods can’t stop it!

"Mimi Mummy..."

Fang Zhengzheng recited a passage from the Tao Te Ching quickly in his mind, then pointed his finger to the sky and shouted: "The way of all things, come!"

“…”

After a while, the sky was still the sky, so blue, and the earth was still the earth, so yellow. If anything had changed, it was the dull look on Zuo Xuelian's face.

Fang Zhengzheng's little face turned red after all...

what happened? Why is the plot wrong? What went wrong

After Qin Xuelian was stunned for a long time, she looked at Fang Zhengyi again. Thinking of the question her son had just scolded the village chief and Li's sister-in-law, her expression became a little solemn: "Father, come quickly! Should Zheng'er do it right?" Could it be...possessed?"
