It can be seen that the Third Elder has high praise for Taoist Buyu. Perhaps the Third Elder lacks something, so he envies others for what they have.
After bidding farewell to the Third Elder, Lu Yang came to Junzi Peak again.
Junzi Peak is the territory of the Fourth Elder. The mountain is elegant and cool, and it is like summer all year round. Pavilions and streams can be seen everywhere, and the bamboos are green and tall. You can tell at a glance that this is a good place for literati and poets to stay and write poetry. Even if the bamboo suddenly recites a few words of sages, Lu Yang would not find it strange.
After seeing all kinds of strange and bizarre things in the Wendao Sect, Lu Yang's psychological quality has been trained to a very strong level.
Lu Yang also saw black and white iron-eating beasts rolling around in the mountains. Some senior brothers were drinking and having fun, using their brushes and ink to paint. They then entered the paintings and had fun with the people in the paintings, looking very comfortable.
The iron-eating beast nudged Lu Yang, almost making him fall. It was playing with Lu Yang, but Lu Yang had something else to do, so he tried to persuade the iron-eating beast, and the beast let him go. Before leaving, it gave Lu Yang a half-eaten bamboo.
"Hello, senior brother. Where is the fourth elder?" Lu Yang asked respectfully while standing in front of the painting, holding half a bamboo. This senior brother had extremely high attainments in painting, almost to the point of being indistinguishable from the real thing, which was very scary.
When Brother Huadao heard Lu Yang calling him, he half stretched out his body from the painting and asked, "Who are you?"
"My name is Lu Yang."
When Senior Brother Huadao heard Lu Yang's name, he suddenly realized: "Oh, I know you, the new Lu Yang, Yunzhi's disciple."
“… It was the senior sister who accepted the disciple on behalf of the master. I am the disciple of Taoist Buyu.” Lu Yang seriously corrected his senior brother’s mistake.
"My name is Ji Hongwen. I entered the Wendao Sect in the same year as the senior sister. I am the eldest disciple of the fourth elder." This senior brother was not arrogant and did not have any opinion about Lu Yang's low level of cultivation.
"Hello, Senior Brother Ji." Lu Yang was surprised. He didn't expect that Ji Hongwen was in the same class as the senior sister.
He only knew that Dai Bufan was from the same class as the eldest senior sister, the most senior among all the disciples, and his cultivation was not much different from that of the elders. The elders were already very confident in his handling of things, and he had a high prestige among the disciples. He didn't expect to meet another one now.
By analogy, this Senior Brother Ji’s cultivation level would not be too low.
The big men who can hardly be seen in any city or county in the outside world can be seen everywhere in the Wendao Sect.
"You want to see the master? Let's go. The master should be teaching his students." Ji Hongwen floated out of the painting and hooked his finger, and another person appeared in the painting.
It was only then that Lu Yang noticed that there was not only Ji Hongwen in the painting, but also a beautiful woman.
The woman looked like she had walked out of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. She had a blush on her cheeks, was gentle and elegant, had a beautiful smile, and her eyes were expressive. Her appearance was truly peerless, and her clothes were even more bold and revealing. Even a pure boy like Lu Yang blushed when he saw her.
"Haha, does it look good? This is what I drew. Do you want me to draw one for you? I can draw one for you so that it can accompany you to sleep at night." Ji Hongwen teased, and Lu Yang shook his head repeatedly after hearing it.
He must protect his kidney water.
The beautiful woman held Ji Hongwen's arm and looked at him lovingly.
What Lu Yang didn't know was that there were more people who wanted to learn Ji Hongwen's move than those who wanted to learn the Third Elder's "Six Heaven-shaking Moves".
Under the guidance of Ji Hongwen, Lu Yang came to the depths of the bamboo forest, where there was actually a private school. In the school, there were four elders who were role models for teachers, the unyielding barbarian Gu, and passers-by A, B, C, and D who listened to the lectures attentively.
The fourth elder was explaining the meaning of an ancient Chinese text: "… Looking from the southwest of the pond, you can see a winding path that flickers and flickers. Its banks are jagged and intertwined, and its source is unknown… Come here, Mangu, translate this. What does 'its banks are jagged and intertwined, and its source is unknown' mean?"
Man Gu lowered his head and thought carefully, then said in a positive tone: "There are two dogs fighting on the shore, I don't know why."
The fourth elder silently closed the ancient book, rolled up his sleeves, and took out the ruler.
Just as he was about to hit Man Gu on the back of his hand, he remembered the saints' earnest teachings - to teach without distinction and to teach according to the aptitude of each student.
He saw how hard Man Gu studied and thought he was a good boy. This translation should have been an accident. I asked a simple question, and if he answered it correctly, I wouldn't have to beat him. It was also a way out.
"Kings, princes, generals and ministers, are they of different species? What does this sentence mean?"
According to historical records, when the Dayu Dynasty fell apart 100,000 years ago, the princes and nobles of the Dayu Dynasty stood up, raised high the banner, re-unified the world, and restored the rule of the Dayu Dynasty.
People believed very much in the idea of bloodline, and thought that the bloodline of the Dayu Dynasty was naturally noble. The claims of the princes and nobles won over the hearts of many people.
However, the ancestor of Emperor Xia, who was deeply poisoned by princes and nobles, knew how rotten they were to the core. They were high and mighty, greedy for pleasure, ignorant of the sufferings of the people, and unaware of the difficulties of practicing. Each of them was nurtured by natural talents and treasures since childhood, and their cultivation soared, and they themselves were almost becoming natural talents and treasures. Even if such people could establish the new Dayu Dynasty, they would soon rot.
As an insightful man, the ancestor of Emperor Xia raised his arms and shouted, "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers born into different families?" This saying has become a famous saying that will be passed down through the ages.
Even Man Gu, who came from a barbarian tribe, had heard these words and felt great admiration for the courage of Emperor Xia's ancestor.
"What this sentence means is, kings, princes, generals and ministers, do you have the guts?"
The whole room burst into laughter.
The fourth elder did not hesitate any longer, picked up a ruler and hit the back of Man Gu's hand, causing him to grimace in pain.
Man Guleng didn't understand where he was wrong. It took great courage for the ancestor of Emperor Xia to challenge him in front of the princes and nobles.
Isn't this what this sentence means
Lu Yang stood at the door and listened to the class silently, observing a three-second silence for Man Gu.
Seeing this scene, Ji Hongwen shook his head and laughed: "I don't know what Junior Brother Man Gu was thinking. As a member of the ancient barbarian tribe, he ignored the Third Elder's unique skills and became Master's disciple. He has been beaten a lot in the past year."
"But I found that he was smarter after returning from this mission. Do you know why?"
Lu Yang shook his head. How would he know
"By the way, the way the Fourth Elder hits the back of the hand seems to have some kind of pattern. Is it my illusion?" Faced with Senior Brother Ji's suspicious eyes, Lu Yang quickly changed the subject.
Senior Brother Ji looked at Lu Yang with a little surprise: "You are not mistaken, this is actually a way to stimulate the blood, but it is too painful, few people can endure it. Master is using this method to activate Junior Brother Man Gu's ancient barbarian blood. By the way, don't tell Junior Brother Man Gu about this."
Lu Yang nodded.
"When Master is done with get out of class, you can find him."
After saying that, Senior Brother Ji took the beautiful woman's hand and left.
The class time was always very long. Lu Yang listened at the door. The Fourth Elder spoke for a quarter of an hour, but Lu Yang felt like several hours had passed.
Finally, the fourth elder finished his get out of class and met Lu Yang, who loved to ask questions.
"You're asking who the wicked, bad-hearted, and evil-minded Lao Jiu is?"
Lu Yang: “…”
Thank you, I think I already know what kind of person Master is.
