The road to becoming a god of Chinese scholars

After paying homage to his teacher, Mencius dragged Yu Juexiu, a freshly appointed apprentice, to chat about TV dramas and variety shows. As a result, this young apprentice never watched TV dramas or variety shows, so he couldn't get along with him at all.

"Xiaoyu, you can't do this. You can't just study in your life." Mencius said earnestly, "Watch more TV dramas and variety shows, broaden your horizons, and entertain your mood."

Yu Juexiu: "..." He was actually persuaded by Mr. Mencius to watch TV dramas and variety shows, which is too fantastical.

"You just can't live like an 80-year-old man." Mencius stroked the mustache on his chin and said with a smile on his face, "Young people should have the vitality of young people." As a finalist, I strongly gave him several TV dramas and variety shows.

Yu Juexiu: "..." Uh...he felt that he was out of step with the times.He is more like an "ancient man" than Mr. Mencius.

Gongsun Chou kept nodding in agreement, saying how good this drama is, and how interesting that drama is.

Listening to the conversation between Mencius and Gongsun Chou, Yu Juexiu began to doubt life in his heart, always feeling that he and them were turned upside down.

Mencius and Gongsun Chou talked about TV dramas and variety shows, and they talked endlessly.The more they talked, the more excited they became, while Yu Juexiu looked dazed aside.

After Mencius and Gongsun Chou finished talking about the play, Mencius asked Gongsun Chou to take Yu Juexiu to meet other students.

When Yu Juexiu was about to leave, Mencius gave him a set of the Four Treasures of the Study, implying that he hoped that he could study hard in the future.

After saying goodbye to Mencius solemnly, Yu Juexiu followed Gongsun Chou to meet other senior brothers.

"Are you scared by me and my husband?" Gongsun Chou asked with a smile, "Do you think we are completely different from what you imagined, especially my husband?"

Yu Juexiu nodded vigorously: "Well, it feels too unreal."

This sentence made Gongsun Chou laugh: "Hahahaha... In your imagination, we read books and do literature every day, right?"

Yu Juexiu touched his nose unnaturally: "Yes..."

Gongsun Chou chuckled: "Little brother, we have stayed in the system for a long time, it is impossible to do literature all the time, we also need to get in touch with new things and keep up with the pace of the times."

Yu Juexiu smiled embarrassingly: "I really didn't expect..." It still feels too incredible. Who would have thought that Mencius would follow dramas and variety shows.

"We live in the system and cannot go out, but the system will give us the greatest freedom, allowing us to do whatever we want in the system." Gongsun Chou said.

Yu Juexiu understood what Gongsun Chou meant, nodded and said, "When the system is reliable, it's quite reliable."

"This can be regarded as our welfare." Gongsun Chou said with a smile, "Little brother, when you see Mr. Confucius tomorrow, you have to calm down."

When Yu Juexiu saw Gongsun Chou say this, his expression was very meaningful, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.Listening to the meaning of what my brother said, Mr. Confucius is probably even more exaggerated than Mr. Mencius.

"Brother, sir, they don't often get together to discuss TV drama plots and variety shows, do they?"

"That's for sure. The two of them often quarrel because of discussing the plot." Gongsun Chou said while shaking his head helplessly, "Once the quarrel started, they would not speak for days, or even months."

Yu Juexiu: "..." Isn't this a situation where children are arguing awkwardly? I didn't expect that two famous writers, thinkers, and philosophers in history were like children.

Thinking about Confucius and Mencius having a dispute because of discussing the plot of the TV series, and then ignoring each other, and seeing each other, they would snort angrily, then turn around and leave the lake, Yu Juexiu inexplicably felt a little cute.

"Sir, they are living happily in the system, they are becoming more and more like children."

"Old children, old children, old children are like children." Yu Juexiu said, "It can be seen that the two gentlemen are living happily in the system."

Gongsun Chou nodded in agreement: "That's right, all of us are quite happy living in the system."

Yu Juexiu and Gongsun Chou came to Meng's Academy to meet several other seniors.

In fact, there are many disciples taught by Mencius, but not every disciple can enter the system.

There are only eighteen disciples of Mencius recruited by the system, because these eighteen disciples appeared in the book "Mencius", and they are the eighteen most outstanding and famous disciples of Mencius.

Before, several disciples taught Yu Juexiu, such as Wan Zhang and Le Zhengzi.

Yu Juexiu, the little junior, saluted and said hello to the seniors one by one.

Everyone likes Yu Juexiu, a little junior, and gave them a gift for the first official meeting, and this gift will cause quite a stir in the real world.

Because Yu Juexiu is the No.19 disciple, his brothers affectionately call him "Little Nineteen".

Next, Yu Juexiu, the "Little Nineteen", sat and chatted with his seniors, pulling closer to each other.

If you don't chat, you don't know. When you chat, you will be shocked.Yu Juexiu found out that his seniors were really talented and knew the real world very well.Not only that, his seniors also learned many skills in the real world, such as the most common foreign languages, Western musical instruments, and Western arts.

Compared with his seniors, Yu Juexiu felt that his achievements were nothing, so he still had to learn.

In the next few days in the system, Yu Juexiu got to know his seniors thoroughly, and also had a certain understanding of his eighteen seniors.

"Little Nineteen." Gongsun Chou's name for Yu Juexiu changed, and others called Yu Juexiu Xiao Nineteen. "The next time you enter the system, you will formally worship Mr. Confucius as your teacher. Brother Ziyuan will take you there then."

Yu Juexiu nodded: "Senior brother, I understand." He had just finished speaking when he remembered something and asked, "Senior brother, do you still give lectures like before?"

"Lectures, but not every day." Gongsun Chou said, "Lectures are given once a week now. Little Nineteen, if you don't understand anything, you can discuss it with your brothers."

Yu Juexiu felt relieved, "Okay, I understand." He was just worried that Mr. Mencius would not give lectures like he did back then, and he would not be able to listen to them.Fortunately, Mr. Mencius will give a lecture once a week, so he can listen to it.

"Little Nineteen, if you want to discuss literature or other aspects, you can come to the brothers at any time." Gongsun Chou said with a smile, "Don't be polite with the brothers."

Yu Juexiu smiled slightly: "Don't worry, brother, I won't be polite to you."

"Okay, go back quickly." Gongsun Chou raised his hand and patted Xia Yu Juexiu's shoulder.

"Brother, I'm leaving first." After Yu Juexiu finished speaking, he exited the system and returned to the real world.

As soon as he returned to the real world, Yu Juexiu went to the Jinjiang system.

"system!"

This time, the Jinjiang system didn't pretend not to hear it on purpose. Yu Juexiu yelled the first time, and it obediently came out.

"Host, why are you looking for Ben cute?"

Yu Juexiu didn't go around and said directly: "I passed the Confucianism assessment, you should fulfill your promise and reward me with materials that replace silicon."

Jinjiang system: "Host, I'm cute and won't break my promise." After speaking, he gave a piece of ore to Yu Juexiu, "Host, the material you want is this stone."

Yu Juexiu looked at the dark stone in his hand, and after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't see anything special, so he asked with a puzzled face, "What kind of stone is this?"

Jinjiang system: "This stone is called Black Silver Stone."

"Black Silver Stone?" Yu Juexiu had never heard of this name before, "Where is it mainly distributed in Huaguo?"

"It's distributed in many forests. It's very common but it doesn't have a sense of existence." The promotion system introduced, "The black silver in it is the material you are looking for to replace silicon."

"Only the country of Hua has the black silver stone?" Yu Juexiu seemed to think that the black silver stone was very ordinary, and no one would notice it if it was thrown on the road.

"Yes, there are none in other countries." The Jinjiang system said, "Host, you have to rely on your own strength to extract the black silver from the black silver stone and make it into materials. I won't be able to extract it for you."

Yu Juexiu never expected the Jinjiang system to help him extract the black silver from the black silver stone. "I know."

"Ben cute can only help you get here, and then it's up to you, the host, to work hard."

"I see." After Yu Juexiu finished speaking, he added, "Thank you." The system has provided him with raw materials, which has been a great help, and he will then rely on him to do the experiment and practice.

"You're welcome, the host. This was originally a reward for you." The Jinjiang system retreated after finishing speaking, instead of joking with Yu Juexiu as usual.

There are no tools at home, so Yu Juexiu can't cut the black silver stone even if he wants to.Besides, it's getting late now, and it's time for him to go to bed.

Although he can't wait to cut up the black silver stone and study it, he can only wait until tomorrow to go to the laboratory to make it.

The next morning, Yu Juexiu woke up on time, washed up briefly, and went out for a run.

After returning from running, he hurriedly finished his breakfast, and then rushed to the laboratory as fast as he could.

As soon as he arrived at the laboratory, Yu Juexiu cut up the black silver stone, and then carefully studied the black silver in the stone.

He has no class all day today, so he can do experiments in the experiment all day.

After careful observation, Yu Juexiu found that the black silver stone was not all black silver, but also other substances.He estimated that the black silver in a black silver stone is 80.00%, but this content is also very high.

He also searched the Internet, but there was no stone called Black Silver Stone, nor any specific information about it.I only found out after asking the Jinjiang system that geologists classified black silver stone into granite.

When Luo Xiuming came to ask Yu Juexiu for dinner at noon, he saw Yu Juexiu tinkering with a stone and asked him what he was doing.

Yu Juexiu said that he was observing and researching, but there was no result for the time being.It is impossible for him to tell Luo Xiuming that this is black silver stone, the black silver in it can replace silicon, and can be used as a solar cell.

Luo Xiuming didn't ask any further questions, and took Yu Juexiu to lunch.

During the meal, the two chatted about the previously discovered unknown substances.

Luo Xiuming guessed that it was a semiconductor material, but Yu Juexiu didn't think so.

After lunch, Yu Juexiu hurried back to the office to fiddle with his black silver stone.

After returning to the apartment at night, Yu Juexiu entered the system.

He is going to meet Confucius today and formally worship Confucius as his teacher.

Just like meeting Mencius before, Yu Juexiu had to burn incense, bathe and change clothes, and tidy himself up.

The Confucian shirts of Kong's family are black and white, the whole is white, and the clothes are embroidered with bamboo.The neckline and sleeve edges are black.

After Yu Juexiu changed his clothes, he went to Yan Ziyuan, "Brother, I'm ready."

Yan Ziyuan nodded slightly: "Let's go."

Before going to meet Confucius, Yan Ziyuan briefly introduced the situation.

Because Confucius had many disciples, it is said that he had 72 disciples, that is, the famous 72 sages of Confucius.Of course, it is impossible to have 72 sages in the system.

Today, the disciples of Confucius in the system are the most famous ten disciples, namely Yan Hui, Min Ziqian, Ran Geng, Ran Yong, Zaiyu and others.Among the top ten disciples, half of them had taught Yu Juexiu before.

Yu Juexiu followed Yan Ziyuan to a bamboo house, and saw that the courtyard wall of the bamboo house was surrounded by thin bamboo.

Before that, Mencius' house was a thatched cottage.Now, seeing that Confucius' house was a bamboo house, Yu Juexiu was not surprised at all.

Yan Ziyuan pushed open the bamboo door and led Yu Juexiu into the courtyard.

Stepping into the yard, a path paved with white stone leads directly to a two-story bamboo house.

On the left side of the path is a garden, to be precise, an orchid garden.On the right is a small bamboo forest, which seems to be the unique spirit bamboo in the system, slender and emerald, very beautiful.

Passing through the small bamboo forest is a section of stairs, above which is a two-story bamboo house.

Yu Juexiu followed behind Yan Ziyuan, looking around curiously while walking.

There are two peach blossoms in front of the bamboo house, which are in full bloom at this time.

There are no four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter in the system, so the flowers here bloom all year round.

At this time, there were bursts of ethereal and distant guqin sound in the bamboo house. If you listen carefully, it is "High Mountain and Flowing Water".

Yu Juexiu asked, "Brother, is the master playing the piano?" There was a legend before that Confucius once compiled the "Book of Music", so Confucius was very proficient in rhythm.

"Yes."

Perhaps because of meeting Mencius before, Yu Juexiu was not nervous at all when he came to visit Confucius this time.

Yan Ziyuan led Yu Juexiu into the bamboo house, and a faint scent of bamboo mixed with ink came to the nostrils, which made people relax their nerves and mood.

Yu Juexiu followed Yan Ziyuan up to the second floor, and stopped outside the room where the sound of Guqin came from.

"Junior brother, wait a moment, I'll go in and talk to Mr."

"Yes, brother."

Yan Ziyuan walked into the piano room, first saluted Confucius, and then said respectfully: "Sir, the junior brother has arrived."

Confucius kept playing the piano in his hand and nodded slightly: "Let him in."

"Yes." Yan Ziyuan walked out of the room and said to Yu Juexiu, "Little brother, sir let you in."

"Thank you, brother." Yu Juexiu followed Yan Ziyuan into the piano room, and he could see Confucius sitting in front of the window playing the piano at a glance.

I saw that Confucius looked upright, with a big beard on his cheeks, and a tall and burly figure.

The appearance of Confucius is very similar to the portraits in history.

Yu Juexiu knelt down and saluted: "Student Yu Juexiu has met Mr.." To be honest, just looking at the appearance and figure of Mr. Confucius, the first reaction is a martial artist, not a writer.

Confucius stopped what he was doing, the melodious melody came to an abrupt end, and he said softly, "Get up."

"Mr. Xie." After Yu Juexiu stood up, he lowered his head, not daring to look around.

Confucius took a deep look at Yu Juexiu, and suddenly said: "A gentleman is better than Zhou..."

When Yu Juexiu heard this sentence, he blurted out: "Xiaobi is not Zhou."

Seeing Yu Juexiu, Confucius immediately agreed without any hesitation, with a satisfied smile in his eyes.

"Those who know are happy, those who are benevolent live long."

Yu Juexiu said without any hesitation: "Those who know enjoy water, and those who are benevolent enjoy mountains; in the east of Zhejiang, those who are benevolent are quiet; those who know are happy, and those who are benevolent live long." This sentence comes from the Yongye chapter of "The Analects of Confucius".

Confucius continued: "Everything can be established if it is forewarned, and it will be destroyed if it is not forewarned."

Yu Juexiu replied: "Before you say something, you will not be lazy; if you are determined beforehand, you will not be sleepy; if you are determined before you do it, you will not be guilty; if you are determined before the way, you will not be poor." This sentence comes from "The Doctrine of the Mean".

Confucius: "A gentleman does not feel guilty in introspection, and has no evil in his will."

Yu Juexiu continued to answer: "What is out of reach of the king is only invisible to people?" Is Mr. Confucius evaluating him?

Confucius: "The one who is in the middle..."

He only said three words, but Yu Juexiu was still able to answer: "The one who is in the middle is the foundation of the world; the one who is in harmony is the way of the world; the one who is in harmony is the position of the heavens and the birth of all things." This sentence is still from "The Doctrine of the Mean".He had just finished examining the Four Books and Thirteen Classics of Confucianism some time ago, and it was not difficult for him to be tested by Confucius at this time.

Seeing that Yu Juexiu was able to blurt out answers every time, Confucius was very satisfied and pleased, and praised: "Not bad! Not bad!" This little apprentice is not only good-looking, but also quick-witted.

"Mr. Xie's compliment." Yu Juexiu muttered in his heart, it seems that Mr. Confucius is stricter than Mr. Mencius.When I went to see Mr. Mencius yesterday, Mr. Mencius did not test him, but Mr. Confucius gave him a test immediately. Fortunately, he has already memorized the entire book of "The Analects" from beginning to end.

Next, Confucius inspected Yu Juexiu again, and all the random checks were sentences from the original texts of the Four Books and the Thirteen Classics.

No matter how many random checks Confucius made, Yu Juexiu answered them all.

After half an hour, Confucius' spot check stopped.

Under the auspices of Yan Ziyuan, Yu Jue practiced three kneeling and nine knocking rituals, formally worshiping Confucius as his teacher.

Confucius took Yu Juexiu's tea, drank a few sips gracefully, and began to lecture Yu Juexiu. It was nothing more than the principles of life, the etiquette and rules of Kong's school, and don't forget the original intention of reading.

After the training, Confucius formally accepted Yu Juexiu as his disciple.

Yu Juexiu is the No.11 apprentice of Confucius in the system, so he is directly called "Eleventh".

Confucius gave Yu Juexiu a jade pendant, which is a status symbol for the children of the Confucius family.

The jade pendant is full of jade, with Yu Juexiu's name engraved in seal characters on the front and "Students of the Kong Family" engraved on the back.

After officially worshiping as a master, Confucius asked Yan Ziyuan to take Yu Juexiu to meet other disciples, instead of pulling Yu Juexiu to talk about TV dramas and variety shows like Mencius did.

Walking out of the small bamboo hut, Yu Juexiu thought to himself, Mr. Mencius is like the old man next door, amiable and amiable.And Mr. Confucius doesn't seem very close, he looks like a strict teacher.

Yu Juexiu didn't know that after he left, Confucius smiled smugly. He felt that he was very stylish just now.

Yan Ziyuan took Yu Juexiu to meet other disciples, and everyone welcomed Yu Juexiu's arrival.

The ten senior brothers liked Yu Juexiu very much, and each of them gave Yu Juexiu a meeting gift generously.

Next, Yu Juexiu sat and chatted with ten senior brothers.

Unlike the brothers from the Meng family, the ten brothers from the Kong family pulled Yu Juexiu to chat about literature.

After chatting for a long time, Yu Juexiu left.

After the junior brother left, Zai Yu immediately said, "Did we give a good impression on the junior brother just now?"

Ran Yong said with a smile: "We have left a very good impression on the younger brother."

Duan Muci said: "Young junior brother will definitely think that we are all very serious senior brothers."

Ran Geng shook his head helplessly: "Why bother?"

"Zhong Gong, this is the first time our little brother meets us, we can't be too casual, we have to put on airs like a senior brother, we can't let little eleven think we are not serious." Zhong Gong is Ran Geng's word.

"That's right, Gongsun Chou and the others scared the little junior brother yesterday. We can't leave a bad impression on Little Eleven like they did."

Ran Geng said angrily: "Are you going to keep pretending?"

"Of course it's impossible to keep pretending. We have to give Little Eleven a process to slowly accept us."

"Yes."

Yu Juexiu thought to himself that the senior brothers of the Kong family were normal and not as mysterious as what Senior Gongsun said.And Mr. Confucius is also very strict, and not as cute as Senior Brother Gongsun said.

He felt that the masters and brothers of the Kong family were normal, exactly as he had imagined.On the contrary, the teachers and brothers of the Meng family are not normal.
