The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 71: Farewell Poem

The carriage arrived at the State Academy of Literature, and many parents of scholars had gathered in front of the gate. Many scholars were reluctant to have their parents around. After all, they were the envied students of the State Academy of Literature outside, but their parents always treated them as children.

Especially the dull Du Shudai, who was almost rubbed by his grandmother, with a sad face, Fang Yun wanted to laugh.

Fang Yun walked over with a large backpack that was half his height, and Nunu lay comfortably on the backpack, looking around, curiously looking at the people around him, and when he looked at the holy temple in the State Academy of Literature, he showed a little fear and turned his head hurriedly.

Lu Yu waved to Fang Yun and asked loudly: "Fang Yun, you actually raised a spirit beast? Now we are safe. Come, let me see!"

As Lu Yu said this, he was about to come over to hug Nunu, but Nunu suddenly had his hair standing up, grinning, and looked fierce. Lu Yu was so scared that he hurriedly retreated and bumped into his father, who slapped him on the forehead.

"No future!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Nu Nu was also amused, and patted Fang Yun's shoulder with one paw to signal, and pointed at Lu Yu with the other paw and cried, as if to say, "Look at a fool, look at a fool."

After the laughter, the sixteen students from the three classes and the three squads of the government army stood together in neat rows.

Gao Yuanzheng, a fourth-rank official from the State Academy of Literature, came over. After everyone paid him a visit, he began to write the famous "Changwu" in the "Book of Songs" in public. This is a poem praising King Xuan of Zhou for going to war. It is also the best "strengthening poem" in Shengyuan Continent at present. If the great scholar writes "Changwu" with the holy page, it can guarantee that 100,000 people will have three times the physical strength, strength and endurance of ordinary people within three months!

Strengthening poems are the fundamental power of ordinary soldiers fighting monsters, and are far more powerful than ordinary poems to kill enemies.

"The king ordered the ministers, the great ancestor of Nanzhong, the master's father.

Reorganize my six divisions to improve my military, respect and caution, benefit this southern country.

..."

When writing "the king ordered the ministers", everyone present heard a voice that seemed to have traveled through time and space.

"Let's go!"

A layer of very light translucent white light appeared on the page.

"The first realm of calligraphy, the pen falls with sound!" Fang Yun thought to himself, even a little envious, this first realm can increase the power of war poems by 20%.

When writing "reorganize my six divisions to improve my military", everyone heard the slogan of the army reorganizing and the sharpening of knives.

While Gao Yuanzheng was writing this poem, Fang Yun clearly found that Gao Yuanzheng could not only mobilize his own talents, but also borrow the talents of the state literary academy.

"It seems that the rumors are true. Studying in the State Academy of Literature will unconsciously be baptized by the talent of the Holy Temple, and your talent will grow faster. It seems that my ability to reach ten inches of talent so quickly has a lot to do with the State Academy of Literature. I'm afraid that this is also the reason why Jianmei Gong stayed in the State Academy of Literature for a long time."

A large amount of heaven and earth energy surged, and even the whistling sound of the wind formed in the sky, not to mention these scholars, even ordinary people can hear it.

Everyone present was infected by the power of this farewell song and listened quietly. Even the parents couldn't help but straighten their bodies and think of themselves as soldiers about to go to war. Some of the parents who had been on the battlefield even recalled their experiences in the past and their eyes were filled with tears.

Gao Yuan was a Jinshi. At first, he only wrote with a sound. After writing half of it, everyone saw that every time he wrote a word, a translucent pink flower bloomed at the tip of the pen.

Everyone stood in awe. This was the second level of calligraphy, because even Jiangzhou's number one Li Wenying's calligraphy was only at this level. However, once Li Wenying wrote a war poem, it was full of flowers, and his level was slightly higher than Gao Yuanzheng.

The white light on the paper began to spread, and finally covered 40% of the paper.

Fang Yun watched quietly, and saw that after Gao Yuanzheng finished writing the last stroke, the white light on the surface of the paper quickly expanded, as if a light shield was buckled on it, but unfortunately only 90% was covered.

Fang Yun looked at the pen in Gao Yuanzheng's hand. The last 50% of the light should be the power of the pen. It should be a brush made of the bones of a big monster, which belongs to the collection of the state literary academy.

The paper page carrying the aspiration poem "Changwu" flew into the air and burned quickly, turning into pure white light spots that fell like rain on the people going to the battle.

Suddenly, bursts of bone explosions sounded one after another.

This "Changwu" with nearly doubled power has great power. Everyone's body has visible changes, muscles bulge, height increase, strength increase, and there is a heat flow in the body at all times.

Fang Yun got Li Yuncong's reminder. He originally wore loose clothes and pants, but now he felt that the clothes were close to his body, which was very uncomfortable. It took some time to adapt.

Fang Yong clenched his fists and felt that he could kill a cow with one punch.

"It's really a magical world. No wonder ordinary soldiers of the human race can fight against monsters. My fighting spirit now seems to be affected by "Changwu". I have become warlike and I can't wait to go to the battlefield to kill monsters. This farewell poem and those auxiliary war poems are not only harmless, but can continuously strengthen people's bodies. As long as the nutrition can keep up, a boy soldier can even easily kill a monster soldier."

Nunu stretched out his white front legs and pressed Fang Yun's upper arm muscles with his claws. He felt full of elasticity and explosive power, and his eyes were full of curiosity.

Gao Yuan Zhengdao said: "This "Changwu" can last for a month. All students should remember the grace of the sages and the protection of the saints, and kill monsters and barbarians for our human race! Let's go!"

Everyone bowed to the direction of the holy temple and said: "Thank you, sages, thank you, saints!"

The students and the soldiers turned and walked towards the ox cart.

Fang Yun looked at the armored cows curiously. These cows had no hair on their bodies and seemed to be covered with shiny black armor.

The armored cow was originally the offspring of a demon cow and an ordinary cow. After years of improvement, it can survive as long as it eats grass. It is extremely powerful, has a docile personality, and is good at running long distances. It is the most widely raised animal in all countries, more than the dragon horse.

At that time, Qi General Tian Dan's Fire Ox Formation used this kind of armored ox.

The armored ox cart is much larger than the ordinary carriage and can seat twenty people, and only two armored oxen are needed to pull the cart.

On the battlefield, there are also armored oxen chariots. Among the six arts of the gentleman (ritual, music, archery, charioteer, calligraphy, and mathematics), "royal" refers to driving a chariot, and now it also includes riding a horse.

The scholars of the three classes and the Sanshi Prefecture Army rode six armored ox carts in total. The seventh armored ox cart contained cooking utensils, dry food, pickled meat, bacon, marching tent weapons and other items.

Amid the waves and loud instructions from many parents, the team headed out of Dayuan City.

The armored ox cart drove very slowly in the city. When it arrived outside the city, it slowly gained strength and soon ran faster than ordinary people. The wheels of the armored ox cart are made of strange wood from Yaoshan Mountain, and the people in the cart only feel slight bumps.

Fang Yun estimated that the speed of this armored ox cart could exceed fifty miles per hour.

In the car, the teachers from three classes took the trouble to explain how to kill monsters and various precautions. Even if these students already knew it, they listened carefully.

After two hours passed, Mr. Wang had finished talking about everything, and everyone in the first class started chatting.

While chatting, the affairs of the court came up. Mr. Wang glanced at Fang Yun and said: "Confucianism is the only way, and those who are interested in becoming a saint must follow it. But the way of sainthood is difficult, and many people only want to become a great Confucian." Some only want to be educated and reach officialdom, so they study miscellaneous arts; some only want to protect the human race, so they major in military skills. Some rule the country by law and major in Legalism; some try to save the country from danger and take the path of political strategists to survive in the cracks. Since hundreds of years ago, miscellaneous scholars in various countries began to focus on power, so even if there are Confucianism and Taoism in each country. Suppression will not be able to shake this huge group, after all, the Lu family is behind them."

Then, Mr. Wang analyzed various families in Jingguo, which was actually about the factions of Jingguo officials.

Fang Yun gradually understood that most of the liberal arts departments majored in Confucianism, while the military was dominated by military strategists, while the civil service department was very complicated. The miscellaneous families who practiced power often gained power and controlled the most important personnel department, which happened to be the most important ones. The yamen is responsible for evaluating officials and appointing officials, so the power of the Zajia family is extremely prosperous.

Liu Shan, the left prime minister, is extremely shrewd. He has been infiltrating various forces without breaking the bottom line. At the same time, he has attracted farmers, legalists, strategists and many other forces to control the state affairs with powerful power.

Although Wen Xiang was a great Confucian and was in charge of the education of Jingguo, because he was a true gentleman and acted upright no matter what he did, he could not abandon the Confucian path and study power to fight with Zuo Xiang. Naturally, he was always at a disadvantage in the court, so In Jingguo's court, the left prime minister still covers the sky with one hand.

Mr. Wang also specifically mentioned Fang Yun: Confucianists, Legalists, etc. can be trusted with their literary courage, but the oaths of some people cannot be trusted. Military strategists have

"A war is never tired of deceit", the strategist has "Chao Qin, Mu Chu", the miscellaneous family has "all-inclusive", and the famous person has "white horse but not horse". They can all avoid oaths or promises to a certain extent, but there are still certain dangers and hidden dangers.

Mr. Wang also said that there is actually a Confucian saying that can be used to circumvent oaths. Confucius once said, "If you want an alliance, the gods will not listen." This means that if a person makes an oath under coercion, he can break the oath, but only if he does it correctly. When it comes to matters of justice and righteousness, if one does not stand upright, the oath cannot be circumvented.

Fang Yun understood that Mr. Wang was teaching him, and he was very grateful. If it hadn't been for such a person to teach him, he would probably have to break his head and bleed to understand.

The journey went very smoothly. At noon, seven armored ox carts arrived at the county seat of Mi County. The county magistrate, who had already received the news, led yamen officials and prominent families to greet them.

Killing monsters in the hospital is to sharpen one's mind. According to the rules, he cannot enter the big city to have fun, so the magistrate of Mi County places a meal at the inn outside the city and invites everyone.

At the dinner table, Magistrate He introduced what happened in detail.

Mi County is crisscrossed by waterways, and there will always be monsters coming from the Yangtze River. However, the monsters are no more than children, but they are stronger and have lower intelligence. Three or five big men with weapons can easily kill them.

But because Qushui County and Mi County are adjacent, a few demon soldiers and demon people from Qushui River fled here. The government army first sent people to clean up the demon generals, and finally found that there were no demon generals, so they reported it to the government, so the Prefectural Academy of Arts changed the place where the demon generals of the scholar class were killed here, and Qushui County, where the demon generals appeared, has been under martial law.
