one's door

At this time, Luo Changshan, who had been silent until now, spoke.His tone was much lighter than that of the elders who spoke before.

"Actually, although the ideas put forward by the people in Beiwu are not suitable, it cannot be said that they are all fallacies. I think there are merits. After all, many rules are now in the field of miscellaneous learning. It was decided when the suppression had to hide from XZ. It is very different from today's external environment. We can't always look forward and backward and ignore the essence of miscellaneous learning, right?"

The person who seemed to want to refute Luo Changshan swallowed it back when he heard his last sentence.

What is the essence of miscellaneous studies?Isn't it just to let knowledge fight for the nature of the world, and use manpower to fight for a place in the world?Even Zhang Yan present here has heard of this essence.It is the long-cherished wish of the oldest ancestors from the lineage of miscellaneous studies.

Luo Changshan continued: "I met a very interesting and capable young man before. I originally wanted to persuade him not to be so showy, worried that he would be used by others, and also worried that he would break the rules of miscellaneous studies. But After getting in touch with him a lot, he disturbed me as an old man. I can't help thinking, should those old rules really be changed?"

"At the end of the day, Luo Changshan, you old man, are you planning to emulate Beiwu and integrate into the world? Why are you pulling others?"

Luo Changshan laughed, shook his head, and said with a smile to the person who insulted him: "It's not a bullshit, but the truth. That young man's words of 'applying what you have learned' is enough to make people think deeply. Even the old man felt ashamed Ask yourself what is the meaning of what you have learned in your life? Is it really for writing a few books? Or teaching a few apprentices?"

After this sentence, Luo Changshan picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip.To him, this kind of liqueur is just to join in the fun and moisten his throat.It has been a long time since I wanted to say these things in my heart.

"However, the methods of those barbarians in Beiwu are not advisable. They are too impatient and too desperate. Once there is any disturbance, they will not be able to handle it at all.

So, ask me to say.Tomorrow's tea party can no longer break the old rules with them like before, but discuss with them how to integrate the surrounding forces more reasonably, instead of rushing forward blindly.We even have to consider how we should deal with the event of a change in Beiwu..."

Luo Changshan obviously came prepared, every sentence is based on his own views and ideas, and it is not vague, but has specific rules and regulations, which can be moved to the group of people in Beiwu at tomorrow's tea party use.

"No! It's not easy for miscellaneous studies to survive so far. How can you let your guard down easily? Luo Changshan, you flirt with Shi Xuan of the Eastern Army and think others don't know? They all regard the rules set by the ancestors as child's play just like you? You are harboring evil intentions!"

The dispute arose again.The fundamental reason is that the old rules about miscellaneous studies are really deep-rooted and it is true that this school has been able to survive from the predicament to this day.To overthrow such a rule, there is naturally great resistance.

Zhang Yan listened, and drank the whole pot of fruit wine on the table.Even though the wine weighed less than half a catty and was a very low-alcohol sweet wine, it still made him feel a little tipsy.Shaking his head, he was really indifferent to these arguments within the school of miscellaneous studies.Otherwise, I wouldn't drink to pass the time.Now his eyelids are sinking and he wants to squint while he is a little bit drunk.

"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang!"

It didn't know how long Zhang Yan kept sitting upright, and the standard classroom sleeping method with his head down was also awakened by someone.Opening his eyes in a daze, he found that all the eyes that should be staring at the innermost boss in the table were all on him.

What...why are you looking at me?

If another person encountered such a thing, he would definitely panic and tighten his hook.But because of Zhang Yan's rich experience in school, he didn't appear flustered at all. He smiled and wiped the corner of his mouth subconsciously, and found that it was dry, so he became calmer.

"I'm sorry, this wine is smooth to the throat. I forgot my own amount of dregs when I drank it, and I was a little confused. I made everyone laugh." As he said, Zhang Yan made a circle around him.

This attitude immediately confused the old men who were going to say a few words about him.Now it's a feast, and he's a little bit drunk, can't you blame him?

"Mr. Zhang, just now Luo Changshan talked a lot about Mr.'s idea of ​​'applying what you have learned', and he thinks that this can promote the strategy of blending miscellaneous learning into the world. So I would like to ask Mr. what's your opinion on this?"

"Me? I have no opinion."

Chapter 177

No opinion? !

Luo Changshan has been talking about your idea as a stepping stone and an example for so long. Not only did you doze off and didn’t listen, but you also said “I have no idea” when you woke up?Is this not giving Luo Changshan face?

Perhaps Zeng Hao and Luo Changshan were the only ones present who smiled and were not surprised.During the few days on the way, Luo Changshan had already tested Zhang Yan's idea of ​​whether the school of miscellaneous studies was suitable for gradually integrating into the world, and without exception, he "had no opinion".

This is also the reason why Luo Changshan was talking all by himself, but he didn't ask Zhang Yan to join him.But the people around didn't know, so they wanted to call Zhang Yan up to join the debate when they said that Luo Changshan's situation was not good enough, and refuted Luo Changshan's point of view in a roundabout way.

"Mr. Zhang, you are also a member of the school of miscellaneous studies. This matter is related to the future direction of the school of miscellaneous studies. Your ideas are so different and are used by Luo Changshan as the basis for your views. How can you do it without saying a few words? "

Maybe it's the high status in the habitual miscellaneous studies, maybe it's the sense of superiority in words due to the huge age difference, or maybe it's aversion to Zhang Yan's previous use of alcohol to doze off, in short, the tone of these questions is not good. With the meaning of questioning.

The people on the side were also waiting for Zhang Yan's answer, and many of the juniors at the back were pursing their lips and smiling, and they exchanged glances with each other, as if they were watching a joke.

"Hehe, the juniors can't understand what the seniors said. "Practice what you have learned" is a concept that the juniors have comprehended and will gradually practice according to their own ideas. Why do you need to say more to the seniors? The seniors feel that they agree, and it will be easy Take it as a reference from the seniors. If you think the bullshit doesn't make sense, then just ignore it.

Besides, let's talk about the future direction of miscellaneous studies, how can this be something that a mere new kid in the younger generation can control?You seniors can discuss it and do it. "

The attitude is respectful and the words are calm, but it gives people an inexplicable sense of toughness.

"Mr. Zhang means that no matter how the rules of miscellaneous studies are set, it has nothing to do with you, right? You just need to act according to your own ideas. Is that what you mean?"

Now there is no need for the "Nine Elders" to ask, a person sitting not far from Zhang Yan has already stood up, frowning slightly and opened his mouth.

Zhang Yan looked at the other party with a smile, not hiding the other party's eyes at all, and said affirmatively: "Yes. What I have learned is for my own use, why should I be subject to rules and regulations?"

As soon as Zhang Yan said this, discussions and accusations exploded around him.On this occasion, Zhang Yan's words are equivalent to directly excluding himself from the rules of miscellaneous studies.

"Zhang Yan! Do you know what you are talking about?!"

"You are so insolent when you first entered miscellaneous studies. Do you really think that you can be lawless if you show your skills outside? It's a joke!"

"In the field of miscellaneous studies, knowledge lies in the accumulation of past dynasties. How can you, Zhang Yan, be able to bypass the contributions of those ancestors of the school? How can you say such forgetful words!"

……

Before the meeting, the idea that Zhang Yan was considered a very good newcomer by Zhang Yan's communication skills was instantly reversed at this moment.Not to mention disgusting, at least no one will treat him as a "modest and kind" young man anymore.But at this time, the people who jumped out to speak out and reprimanded were all those who opposed Luo Changshan's school of thought.The words were sharp, but for Zhang Yan, who was used to hearing swear words from the market and the army, he couldn't even make him emotional.

"Actually, why do you need to be so excited? The origin of knowledge is created by continuous accumulation and continuous improvement. And the role most people can play in this process is just to absorb and pass on the achievements of their predecessors. What can really be done in the past? There is no one in a hundred, or even one in a million, who makes breakthroughs in human achievements.

Therefore, everyone should honestly do a good job of inheriting the culture, and carry it forward to attract more people to join it.Isn't this better?Instead of always thinking about accusing others of the rules of a special period, this is wrong, what is wrong, and what is the point?

If you don't reveal any of your knowledge, don't talk about studying, I'm afraid it will be hard to continue with the money and food for living?Not to mention the fine dining expenses nowadays.

Why bother? "

Zhang Yan was dumbfounded by his words, not to mention the people he met for the first time, even Zeng Hao and Luo Changshan were also stunned by his strange thoughts and remarks.

In addition, the three words "Why bother" at the end are like a knife piercing into everyone's heart.To be able to engage in such a big ostentation and have so much money to spend, let alone growing the land by yourself, in the end, is it not obtained in exchange for what you have learned?So what about hiding?Do you really have to pretend and stand again?Why bother?

"unreasonable!"

"No reason!"

"The kid is crazy! Hurry up and apologize!"

This is really blown up.Even the juniors who watched the excitement with their mouths pursed all stood up with ugly faces.Although he didn't open his mouth to scold like his elders, but judging by his posture, he was almost unable to hold back.Even Zeng Hao began to worry about Zhang Yan.But Zeng Hao was anxious and at the same time subconsciously thinking about what Zhang Yan said just now, it seems that what he said... makes sense?

In fact, there are not a few people who are pondering like Zeng Hao.Look at the "Nine Elders" in the innermost circle who all frown and think deeply, and you can understand.Compared with those who blatantly scold Zhang Yan, they are less likely to be irritated by words, on the contrary, they can focus on the harsh-sounding opinions Zhang Yan said.

"Zhang Yan, I heard that you entered the martial arts academy as a guest teacher, right?"

Suddenly, an old man sitting next to Luo Changshan in the inner circle smiled and asked a question.It was the first time he spoke tonight, and his words were soft.One sentence stopped the noisy scolding in the scene.Everyone silenced and waited for Zhang Yan to answer.

"Yes."

"I haven't seen the badge of Kejiao, you should have brought it?"

"Huh?" Zhang Yan then remembered why Luo Changshan asked him to wear his belt card before going out, even if he didn't hang it on his waist, he still had to keep it in his bosom.At first I was still wondering, it turned out that it was waiting for him here.

Zhang Yan took it out from his bosom, the lettering on the waist card was clear, those who were nearby could see it clearly at a glance, and those who were a little further away could get closer to distinguish it, in a few words, although Zhang Yan was surprised that Zhang Yan was actually an instructor of the Martial Arts Academy However, the waist card is the real thing, and no one suspects that Zhang Yan is deceiving.

"Joining the Academy of Martial Arts and serving as a guest teacher, is this what Mr. Zhang said is the responsibility of doing a good job of inheritance, and the practice of attracting more people to join?"

"Yes. The younger generation realizes that 'learn into practice' and hopes that what they have learned can be accepted by more people so that more people can join in miscellaneous studies. The guest teacher status of Jiangwu Academy is quite unexpected, but it is a rare opportunity. The juniors should practice what they say and not be disturbed by external things."

Chapter 178 Example

Zhang Yan originally thought that his words at the Nanyuan National Miscellaneous School Meeting yesterday were too offensive, and he would never have the opportunity to participate in the North-South Tea Party later.But in the end, he became the "leader of the younger generation" unanimously elected by the nine elders. It would be impossible not to participate.

"Senior Luo, why do you insist on me going?" Back at the inn, Zhang Yan looked puzzled.At the same time, I lost my sense of novelty about the gatherings of miscellaneous studies, and I felt that it would be worthwhile not to go, and my spirits became weak.

However, Luo Changshan smiled and seemed very satisfied with today's gathering, explaining: "Mr. Zhang, don't worry too much. Most people with miscellaneous studies are relatively closed. Even if they are forced by life, they don't easily get in touch with them. Not much. Even if they have disagreements, they are just discussing the matter as it stands, and even if there is some ostentation, it will not affect the essence.

Therefore, inviting Mr. to participate in tomorrow's conference is also to recognize Mr.'s deafening rhetoric at the meeting today.

I really didn't expect that.At this age, Mr. has already seen so thoroughly, even if you don't talk about Mr.'s superb knowledge, this vision alone is worthy of a top spot.Not to mention the younger generation, even us old people are not as good as Mr.! "

"But don't all my words shake their heads except you?"

"Shaking their head doesn't mean they don't understand it. And how do you know they're shaking their head at you? What if they're shaking their head at themselves?"

"what?"

Zhang Yan doesn't understand how true knowledge people feel about the school they live in and how much they value it.He didn't even know how what he said just now during the banquet shocked the cognition of those old men.

Everyone thinks that they can be called "family" in miscellaneous studies, and they all think that they are very knowledgeable, but what is the truth?When Zhang Yan said that "there is no one in a million who can really make a breakthrough on the achievements of the predecessors", all those superficial complacency or pretentiousness collapsed like a sandcastle in an instant.

After self-examination, I found that what I am proud of is that I have absorbed more of the accumulation of predecessors than others, and how many people have really made breakthroughs on top of it?Even if they are like this, what about those who are not as good as them?

"Even if they haven't fully agreed with your statement, they must have listened to it. Tomorrow's big tea party will definitely be different from the past."

Zhang Yan didn't fully understand, and asked: "But at the banquet today, the seniors didn't reach a consensus? Then tomorrow, won't it be endless?"

"Hahaha. Mr. Zhang, you are really quick to talk. That's right! People who play with words are hypocritical, and they can care about trivial matters for a long time, let alone such a big matter? Do you think it is really possible to reach a consensus in today's situation? ?” Without waiting for Zhang Yan to answer, Luo Changshan gave the answer himself: “No!”

Laughing self-deprecatingly, Luo Changshan paused, and continued: "There are so many people, such a big matter, and there is no recognized authority to restrain it. It is absolutely impossible to reach a consensus."

"Then why..."

"We still need to get together to discuss? Right? It's just to have a new direction. As long as the opposing, neutral, and changing parties feel that they can give it a try for a while, that's fine.

So, Mr. Zhang knows his own importance, right?If the dispute persists tomorrow, what you said today will definitely be thrown at the people in Beiwu again. Let's see how they respond. "

"But wouldn't that be considered as Beiwu's approach? How could those seniors on our side give up?"

"Who said it was convergence? They actively merged into the secular world without leaving room for the purpose of turning themselves into a part of the secular world, even at the same time as those mainstream schools of thought. But we are different. We are practicing what you put forward. The concept of "use" is to carry forward the inheritance and attract latecomers, rather than to pursue integration.

They seem similar, but they are actually different in essence. "Luo Changshan's expression was serious and meticulous when he said the latter, as if he was correcting a big mistake of Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan leaned back on the back of the chair, thinking: You still know how to play!In this way, the miscellaneous studies of Nanyuan Kingdom and Beiwu Kingdom really sound like they are completely different.Even conversely, it sets off the miscellaneous learning of Beiwu Kingdom as reckless and mindless, and even feels like a prodigal son.

After comforting Zhang Yan and reluctantly agreeing to participate in the Qiannanbei tea party tomorrow, Luo Changshan asked Zeng Hao and Zhang Yan to go downstairs for supper together with a smile, and took out the half pot of wine left over yesterday and sat in the room with a smile drink alone.

"Hehehe..."

Luo Changshan drank two glasses in a row, then laughed lightly.Today was a better result for him than expected.Not only did it give the Nanyuan Kingdom miscellaneous studies, which were originally scattered like sand, a new concept that could barely balance the ideas of all parties.Even pushed Zhang Yan to the front desk.

Why did someone who is also one of the "Nine Elders" suddenly ask Zhang Yanxin about the martial arts academy?It's not what Luo Changshan said.Before, he met a few friends while he was taking the "Miscellaneous Scrolls of Spiritual Affairs" for Zhang Yan, so he mentioned Zhang Yan, and everyone thought of pushing Zhang Yan out later.It's just that the matter of the Martial Academy became a step, and several people with the same opinion as Luo Changshan used it as a starting point to push Zhang Yan up.

What else is more meaningful than a master of miscellaneous scholars who serves as a guest teacher at the Jiangwu Academy?Whether the concept of applying what you have learned is feasible will also be answered by Zhang Yan.In this way, the miscellaneous studies on the side of Nanyuan Kingdom will not talk about each other as before, but have specific examples of identification.

There are too many benefits.What's more, Zhang Yan's methods are not limited to miscellaneous knowledge, he also has alchemy.Luo Changshan didn't talk too much to anyone about this matter.

Early the next morning, Luo Changshan got up before dawn to tidy himself up.Made it very decent, and put on a formal black robe.

When he went downstairs, he saw that Zhang Yan and Zeng Hao, who had also packed up and changed into black robes, were already waiting below.The three simply ate breakfast and went out.Take a carriage to the outskirts of the city. Today, the Gannanbei tea party will be held in a tea house in the outskirts of the city.

As soon as he entered the tea house, Zhang Yan saw a lot of people wearing Beiwu country costumes walking around in the tea house in twos and threes, admiring the flowers or laughing and talking.There are also a lot of people, there are more than ten people just seen along the way.When I walked into the elegant Pingba surrounded by tea trees, I saw nearly 20 people.

"These Beiwu people are interesting!"

Zhang Yan discovered a very interesting place.That is, there are many warriors among these Beiwu people of miscellaneous studies.If you distinguish carefully, you will find that these warriors are basically young and half-children.By analogy, it should be the same generation as Zeng Hao.

Chapter 179

"Huh! Is it you?! You can come here too?"

Zhang Yan was listening to Luo Changshan telling him who the miscellaneous scholars in the surrounding Beiwu Kingdom were, and at the same time, he had to say hello to the acquaintances from the Nanyuan Kingdom who came to gather together.Suddenly he heard someone shouting and asking beside him, which made him stunned.

Turning his head to look, he saw a few half-grown children about the same age as Zeng Hao standing not far away, and one of them was pointing at him with a look of disgust and surprise.

Zhang Yan's first reaction in his heart was: Who is this baby?

Immediately after seeing the girl surrounded by these half-grown children, I remembered who it was.Isn't it the same few people I met when I was shopping in the city with Zeng Hao when I first arrived in Xiangkou?At that time, it seemed that the young man who was pointing at him now was bluffing to give him double the price to buy the gift he gave to his younger sister Zhang Huiyuan from him.The result was ignored.

"Didn't your adults teach you that pointing at a stranger is very impolite? Or do you lack education in this area?" Zhang Yan put away the smile on his face, turned to look at the still Said the boy who never put his hand down and still pointed at him.

"Hahaha! Upbringing? Do you know who you are facing? Talking about upbringing with this son, how many heads do you have? Quickly kneel down and kowtow to admit your mistake! Then offer the rouge and gouache owed to Princess Mingxiang with both hands, Otherwise, you will definitely be forced to live or die!" While speaking, he glanced to his side.This time, he was surrounded not only by his peers, but also by several powerful martial artists.

ha?Zhang Yan blinked, stunned by the yelling, and was in a daze for a while.After carefully looking at the style of the robe on the other party's body, he was sure that it was the robe of Beiwu Kingdom, which made him even more curious, what made this child dare to be so arrogant and domineering in Nanyuan Kingdom?Just those few martial artists who seem to be in the Tongqiao state?Or is it the aura hidden in the dark of the tea house that should belong to a strong person in the Hundred Refining Realm?

It's like lighting a lantern in a latrine.

Without even thinking about it, Zhang Yan looked at the other party, and a syllable came out of his mouth: Sure!

Because the voice was very low and hurried, no one noticed when Zhang Yan said this syllable.They were still surprised at the other party's arrogant remarks.

"How unreasonable! Whose disciple are you! How can there be such an arrogant and rude person like you in the miscellaneous school?!" Luo Changshan was immediately angry.The long beard was trembling from the rough air, and he raised his voice to question, and looked at the people he knew from the Miscellaneous School of Beiwu Kingdom nearby.

Same as the mainstream school of thought.The School of Miscellaneous Studies also pays great attention to etiquette and the order of seniors and children.It was obvious that juniors like Zeng Hao didn't even have the qualifications to speak yesterday.What's more, such a baby who has not even shed his lanugo dare to point at Zhang Yan and tell him to kneel down, and Zhang Yan "would rather die"?

Even if this kind of person is young, he is worthy of studying in the field of miscellaneous studies?Have the people at Beiwu actually become such a jerk?

As for the titles of "princess" and "children", in Luo Changshan's opinion, they are all secondary.Even a prince should follow etiquette on such an occasion, how could he be so vulgar?

Not only Luo Changshan was angry, but also the "Nine Elders" of Nanyuan Kingdom and the rest of the people who came to the tea party were also angry.They all shouted and asked whose apprentice was so unbearable?

But in the face of the surrounding questioning, the faces of the miscellaneous scholars of Beiwu Kingdom were not good-looking, and most of them turned away with livid faces, acting as deaf people.Some have bulging cheeks, looking hesitant to speak.Only a few people walked over quickly to stand between the group of teenagers and the experts from Nanyuan Kingdom.The words are neither soft nor hard to prevaricate.He didn't intend to scold the group of young people at all, nor did he answer who the young man who pointed at Zhang Yan was his apprentice.

And in just a few breaths of time, the group of teenagers had already gathered ten martial artists around their bodies, the lowest cultivation level was at the Kaiyuan level, and there were five at the Tongqiao level.However, the Hundred Refining Realm hidden in Zhang Yan's perception did not show up.It's just that a qi machine swept across the group of people on Zhang Yan's side and there was no movement.

"Are you all Mu Yuanqian's apprentices?" Luo Changshan asked speculatively with a frown when he saw the other party's confident look and the reaction of the northern martial arts experts next to him, and then contacted some clips from the tea party the previous year.

The few people in Beiwu all showed surprise on their faces, it was obvious that Luo Changshan had guessed right.But the scene fell into silence, and quickly became weird.

Just when everyone was looking at the arrogant young man pointing at Zhang Yan, wanting to see how he would answer, they found something was wrong.Because the boy kept his previous movements and expressions motionless, without any reaction at all.Even if you look carefully, you don't even blink your eyelids.
