Hearing the little scholar in front of her ask this question, the old woman subconsciously said: "Of course my grandson is called this name, but the name is given by the most learned person in our village. You are really a young descendant, and you asked such a strange name. Weird question."
Xue Tingxiang's eyes flashed, and he looked at the old woman's expression.
But no matter how he looked at it, the old woman's expression didn't look like she was lying. Could it be that there was something wrong with this
Just as Xue Tingxiang fell into contemplation, the crowd had changed again.
The people from Qinghe Academy swarmed up as if to discuss.
"What do you people in Qingyuan want to do? Mother-in-law, don't tell him that the people in the Qingyuan Academy are the most cunning, but that's how Sun He followed their way that day, and he lost his life!"
"You really confuse black and white. I don't know what it means. Don't think that because you have a lot of people, you can bully our few people."
"Let's go quickly, so as not to suffer a big loss, wait until we go back and report to the owner of the museum."
The dozen or so students from Qinghe were talking all over the place, and they picked up the old woman and swept it away like a gust of wind.
Seeing this group of people finally leave, everyone can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Master, are you alright?" Mr. Meng asked.
Lin Miao wiped his cheeks and shook his head: "I'm fine."
Mr. Mo sighed beside him: "It's fine."
The three of them looked at each other in dismay, and they were extremely embarrassed to each other. How could they still look like a scholar, they all felt a burst of grief in their hearts.
"Are you all okay?" Looking at the students around, Lin Miao asked.
"Master, we are all right."
"As long as there is nothing wrong, let's go first."
Everyone filed in, and when it was Xue Tingxiang's turn, Lin Miao suddenly said, "Xue Tingxiang, come with me."
Mao Badou and the others looked at Xue Tingxiang worriedly, but they couldn't say anything.
After entering the room, Lin Miao first went to the inner room to clean up.
Not long after he came out, he had returned to the upright and rigorous owner of the museum before, and the blood marks on his face had also faded a lot. He came to the book desk, sat down, and glanced at Xue Tingxiang: "Thanks to you for helping everyone, but the victim is already heartbroken, you shouldn't take the opportunity to use their pain to achieve your own goals, although your intention is It's for everyone's sake."
Lin Miao sighed: "You are smart and witty, courageous and resourceful, but you are good at forcibly sophistry, which makes people unhappy. It is necessary to know that a gentleman stands in the world, and he should be magnanimous. Virtuous, not deceiving the sky, not deceiving others, not deceiving the heart, not deceiving the world, be a true gentleman.
"That day, the wise brother of Mo led you to study, originally wanted me to accept you as a disciple, but I have no intention of accepting a disciple at the moment. I see that you are diligent and eager to learn, and your mind is excellent, presumably in the future. Small. But you need to keep in mind that a gentleman has what he can do and what he can not do. You are used to taking shortcuts by taking advantage of your cleverness. I am afraid that you will miss your important affairs in the future. "
Therefore, Lin Miao is really not good at being a human being. Others came up to help with enthusiasm, but when he turned his head, he said that he used cleverness to force sophistry.
It can be seen that his words are earnest and earnest in teaching, and Xue Tingxiang is not disgusted. He also knows that the judgment of the museum owner about him probably comes from the matter of Mao Badou's collection of books that day.
Since Xue Tingxiang had that dream, his temperament and behavior have changed drastically, and two people have already said the same thing to him.
One is Zhao'er, and the other is the curator Lin in front of him.
He was disdainful of everything in his heart, but Zhao'er he was willing to be kind, because that was Zhao'er. At this time, this person also said the same, and Xue Tingxiang felt a little bit of rebuttal.
"And I don't know what the owner of the museum thinks of as a gentleman?" he asked suddenly.
Lin Miao was stunned for a moment, and replied, "A gentleman should be cautious about virtue first. Do everything you can."
These words come from the "University", and they are two different words. A gentleman should be careful about virtue first, to the effect that the first thing a gentleman should do is to prudently improve his virtue. And doing everything to the extreme means that the gentleman is always in pursuit of the most perfect moral realm.
"And I don't know that the gentleman is magnanimous and the villain has a long relationship, but the world is completely opposite. In this world, the villain is usually arrogant and proud, while the gentleman is persecuted and full of humiliation. This is what happened to the owner of the museum and the two gentlemen."
"Clear is clear, Chu is Chu, even if the gentleman will suffer for a while, but one day the truth will be revealed, and the injustice will be snowed."
"The time is already dead, so what's the use of the truth?"
Lin Miao took a deep look at Xue Tingxiang, not angry because of his rude remarks, but said: "A gentleman with a big heart will follow the rules of the sky, if he is careful, he will be afraid of righteousness; Law; when you see the reason, you are respectful and stop; when you see the closed, you are respectful and orderly; when you are happy, you are harmonious and reasonable; when you are worried, you are quiet and contrary; If you are careful, you will be promiscuous; if you are aware, you will be robbed and gradually; if you are stupid, you will be poisoned and thieves will be confused; if you see the reason, you will be arrogant; if you see the closed, you will be resentful and dangerous; if you are happy, you will be light and anxious; if you are worried, you will be frustrated and scared; if you are general, you will be arrogant. On the other hand, the poor will give up and be stunned. It is said: 'The gentleman is twice promoted, and the villain is twice abandoned.' This is also called."
This statement comes from "Gou Zi", originally there is a sentence at the beginning, a gentleman is the opposite of a villain. But it was omitted by Lin Miao. The main idea is to take the behavior of both the gentleman and the villain and make a positive and negative list.
When a gentleman is ambitious, he will follow the way of heaven; when his mind is small, he will fear the best behavior and restrain himself; when he knows, he will understand and understand the categories of things; when he does not know, he will be upright and respectful and follow the law; Be respectful and disciplined, respectful and equal when not used; be docile and reasonable when happy; calm and leave when worried; elegant and bright when knowledgeable; frugal and good when poor review.
But the villain is the exact opposite.
Lin Miao did not mean to be humiliated, but he still had the intention of teaching.
However, Xue Tingxiang smiled: "It is the original Zhang and the bow and arrow, and the forest is lush and the axe is heavy."
Lin Miao used the words of "Gou Zi" to teach, and Xue Tingxiang also used the words in "Gou Zi" to teach him, but because he took it out of context, the sentence completely lost its original meaning. Instead, it became 'Since the target is set, don't blame the arrow for coming. The trees are luxuriant, and the axe naturally comes'.
What he means is that no matter how much a gentleman cultivates virtue, it is useless, because the villain will always come like a maggot on the tarsus, and it is the gentleman who is also hurt.
Hearing such a sophistry answer, Lin Miao was dumbfounded and couldn't come back to his senses for a while.
After a long time, he sighed a little: "You child seems to be respectful, but in fact, you are very rebellious. Little do you know that a gentleman has three fears: fear of heaven's mandate, fear of adults, and fear of sage's words. Words. There will be a day when you will burn yourself into flames because of your reckless behavior. Well, you are still young now, and the old man will teach you well in the future."
A sentence in Xue Tingxiang's heart: So I am not a gentleman, but a villain. This sentence has not been finished, and this is the word.
Could it be that it is rare that his unscrupulous and evil deeds clearly expressed the meaning of his heart, not only did he not attract disgust, but instead made people feel admired and want to accept him as a disciple
Now it was Xue Tingxiang's turn to be surprised.
Seeing this, Lin Miao showed a smile: "Let's wait for this, the teacher will teach you well."
This, this, can he say no
Even a wise sophistry like Xue Tingxiang was a little dizzy at the moment.
He pursed his lips and replied: "The owner of the museum should focus on how to protect himself at this time."
This time, Lin Miao's face darkened.
Xue Tingxiang didn't stay long and left soon.
On the way back to the house, what he was thinking about was his own dream.
He would ask the old woman that way before, precisely because of an incident that happened in his dream. He actually met this old woman, but because he didn't pay attention at the time, and the other party described it as vulgar at the time, it was just a glance. It wasn't until he got close this time that he remembered who this person was.
In that dream, a student died in the Qinghe Academy. At that time, there was a lot of panic in the school, but it was suppressed by the gentlemen and the owner, and the students did not dare to speak.
The dead student was called Sun He, not Sun He.
The name Sun He did not exist in Xue Tingxiang's memory. And this thing didn't happen in that dream, maybe he didn't know it happened, because in that dream, because of exclusion, he was always alone and never interacted with others.
But it was precisely because of these insignificant things that Xue Tingxiang felt that there must be something strange.
He couldn't say what was wrong, but he smelled a conspiracy.
After returning to the dormitory, the three Mao Badou gathered around and asked the owner of the museum to ask him to come over, but they praised him.
Xue Tingxiang touched his nose, but he didn't praise him, but he was scolded for being a villain. But he certainly wouldn't talk about this kind of thing, but inferred that he had discovered something and needed a few people's help.
Xue Tingxiang naturally wouldn't mention the matter of dreams. He then said that he had met the old woman before, and by chance, he knew that her grandson was not named Sun He, but Sun He.
The two words sound the same, but the words are different.
So when Xue Tingxiang said this, the three of them were also suspicious. Especially Mao Badou, as if he had been beaten with blood, became excited.
"I smell a conspiracy!"
After the four of them looked at each other, Chen Jian asked, "What's your charter for that court?"
"The old woman I used to talk about, she once said that her grandson's name was taken by the most learned person in their village. For now, we only have to find out where they are first. And then find the person who took this name. As for the rest, press it for now."
"That's fine. It's just how we can find it. Who knows where this family is from in the eight villages in ten miles and eight villages."
"It's hard to find and try it."
"How about we tell the owner of the museum?" Li Datian said.
Mao Badou immediately said: "Tell the owner of the museum to do something, this is the time for us to turn the tide. If this is done, we will be the great saviors of the academy in the future. Maybe the owner of the museum appreciates me and accepts us as disciples. What, I heard people say that the owner of the museum never accepts disciples, and Yu Ziyou and the others are scrambling to be the disciples of the owner."
When I mention this, I naturally think of Yu Ziyou and others who are now behind bars.
This time the matter of Wendou was led by Yu Ziyou. There were only twenty or so students in Qingyuan, but now more than half of them have fallen into it. Yu Ziyou and Wang Qi were both included, but Hu Lianshen narrowly escaped due to diarrhea that day.
Pressing not to mention it, since it was agreed, the four of them discussed how to leave the museum.
Because of the panic in the past few days, several students in the academy have made excuses to go home first because they are afraid of being implicated.
These people are naturally despised by the students who stay in the museum, feeling that they are greedy for life and fear of death. Not to mention these, this gave Xue Tingxiang and others a chance to leave the library smoothly, because the four of them also left, which caused the rejection of the remaining students, so I will not describe them one by one here.
When Lin Miao received this news, he smiled lonely and was relieved immediately.
Xue Tingxiang's move is not exactly what he said before, the villain has the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Forget it, the two of them didn't have a relationship between master and apprentice.
The four of them left the academy, not knowing where to go.
They were wandering in the street when a mule cart suddenly stopped in front of them.
"Ting'er, why are you here? The academy rests today?"
It's a trick.
Gao Sheng was driving the mule cart, and she was sitting on the side in a man's clothes. After the car stopped, she jumped down and stopped in front of the four.
Although Zhao'er said so, his eyes were solemn, and he clearly suspected that the four of them had sneaked out.
"Ah, sister..." It was Mao Badou.
He scratched his head and didn't know what to say. Don't look at his good gag in front of Xue Tingxiang. He was really right on the move. Not afraid of being beaten to death by Zhao'er, but also afraid of being killed by Xue Tingxiang.
He got off to a good start, and Li Datian and Chen Jian also followed up and called Sister Zhao'er. Especially Li Datian, he didn't pay attention to himself, he should be bigger than Zhao'er.
This is connected to the three sisters, making Zhao'er smile and squinting, but also making Xue Tingyan black.
He endured the unpleasantness, and said to Zhao'er, "Don't think too much, we didn't come out to sneak out to play, but to have something to do."
"What's the matter?" Zhao'er asked, and said again: "Let's get in the car and tell me, where are you going, I'll escort you."
Don't think that there is nothing wrong with what he said, but it was just a smooth sentence, but Xue Tingxiang could hear a hint of surveillance. Zhao'er is like this, even if there is any dissatisfaction with his words and deeds in his heart, it is not the key and he will not say it outright, most of them are detours.
In this case, Xue Tingxiang couldn't hide it, so he told what happened in the academy and his findings one by one.
"You really are. Naturally, the more people who help this kind of thing, the better, but you are trying to hide it." Zhao'er laughed and didn't say a childish word.
"I also don't want to leak the rumors. I guess there are ghosts in the academy." Xue Tingxiang said.
