The adults above are so busy with war and power that they don't really care about little things like that.
Xia Buli has already helped his master bury many children who are similar to himself.
He knows that he is lucky compared to other children.
The master will only take him by his side, and the other orphans will be placed in houses in the city. The master will teach them how to survive in troubled times, but he will not take those children with him like he did.
Although Xia Buli is only six or seven years old, he matured very precociously because he experienced many things with his master.
It's just that he was spoiled and lacked the hard-working spirit of other children, so he was very tired and lazy most of the time.
However, the person who brought him up was Master. Others might not be able to do anything about it, but Master firmly grasped the child's weakness, unceremoniously attacking him from various angles.
One thing lowers another thing, although Xia Buli is helpless, he has nothing to do with his master, he can only "difference in ways and not seek each other".
The master watched him go back to his room, laughed a few times, made himself a pot of tea, and enjoyed it leisurely.
After Xia Buli changed into clean clothes, he finished his cup of tea, patted his butt, stood up, and picked up a package beside him.
Xia Buli was amazed to see, they would only leave this small village every two days, go to the town to do some shopping, bring some food to the small courtyard of the town to visit the children brought back by their master.
And they just went to the town yesterday, logically speaking, they should go out the day after tomorrow, and today they should be collecting wind and herding cattle, feeling the atmosphere of the world, reading, and thinking about the knowledge of hundreds of schools.
Even if he really wanted to leave this place, he would have told him a day in advance to make him ready.
Don't tell Xia Buli that this was not prepared for a long trip. Xia Buli, who has followed his master since he was a child, knows his master relatively well.
The package that the other party took out was usually for traveling, or for going to far away places. Judging by the size, it should have been packed in together with his clothes.
"Master, what do you mean?" Staring at the package for a while, Xia Buli raised his head again, looked at his master, and raised his own question, and at the same time, there was a little bit of questioning.
"Oh... I'm sorry, after you fell asleep last night, I watched the stars at night and found that the Emperor Star was about to come into the world... I didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but when I saw your sleeping face, I thought of the current turmoil in China. You are gone, how can you survive in this troubled world?
So, I thought about it all night, and just now I decided to take you to the Emperor Star to find a way out for you. "
"Do you believe what you said?" Xia Buli rolled his eyes, his face was full of "Why don't I believe it?"
"It's normal that you don't believe me. After all, I usually act too casually in front of you, so that you can't feel how reliable and powerful your wife is. But this time, you must believe me. Let's find the emperor who was born in the human world together!
Maybe we really got lucky and found that kid? "
"Master, it's daytime now." Xia Buli sighed and said this out of nowhere.
As if he didn't understand, the master pretended to be stupid and asked, "So?"
"So don't continue to meet Zhou Gong." Xia Buli smiled.
The master didn't care what he said, and twisted him up with a smile, "Buli, you have to think a little bit about being a human being, even if it's a delusion for you for a while, try it anyway! You can't Before I tried it, I thought it would be impossible.”
Xia Buli struggled for a few times, but found that he couldn't break free from his master's palm at all, and spread his hands on the appointment: "I don't dare to resign from the elder's gift."
"Hey, you're so cheap and so good, I'll help you find a way out for the future, and you still hate it." The master laughed, and reached out to poke Xia Buli's forehead fiercely.
Xia Buli covered his forehead with his hand, and squinted at Master, "Master, are you disappointed in me? Are you ready to give up?"
"You have a good idea, but I've made up my mind to look for it. Are you going to stay and look after the house? Or come with me?" The master's peachy eyes fell on Xia Buli slyly, and the latter sighed, "" How can I have a wife like you?"
It is impossible for him to stay to watch the house. Once he stays, he may really become an orphan. The master will stay in other places for a long time, and the money and so on will be brought back by trustworthy people.
No one knows, once it is left behind, it will never find the Master again.
For Xia Buli, Master is his only family member, and it is impossible for him not to be by his "father".
The master calculated the mentality of Xia Buli, and there was no need for Xia Buli to reply at all, so he just smiled, told the package to be carried on his back, put down Xia Buli, and went straight out of the courtyard gate.
Xia Buli looked bitter, and chased after him with a sigh, almost overflowing with resentment.
The two soon left Wei State and went to Zhao State.
The road was very chaotic. I heard that Lord Xinling of Wei State found someone to steal Wei Wang’s military amulet, killed Jin Bi, seized the military power, selected 8 soldiers, joined the Chu army, and went to Zhao State to join him. At the critical moment At the moment, Handan, the capital of Zhao, launched a defensive battle with Qin.
Not to mention the outcome of this battle, when the people heard the news, which one didn't want to escape?There was chaos in many places, and panicked and nervous people could be seen everywhere.
Master and Xia Buli traveled all the way, and they often encountered robbers, thieves, soldiers, liars and the like.
In troubled times, the country will not have a country, and the mental outlook of the people is also very bad. Xia Buli sees the most people who don't care about the state of Zhao, and only want to live a better life for themselves, even if they only have one day to enjoy themselves.
Regardless of whether their actions were right or wrong, Xia Buli was in a bad mood all day watching these things happen.
The master looked at his stinky face, and reached out to pat his head, "This is the way of the world now, no matter how much you stinky face, it is impossible to change it."
"Master, can you accept this?" Xia Buli asked sullenly as he glanced around the city.
"I don't like it either, it can even be said that I hate it to the extreme." The master replied in a deep voice, his eyes were looking into the distance, a little erratic, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
Xia Buli looked up at him, feeling even more depressed, "Since you hate him so much, why don't you become a servant of those powerful people? Or join the army to earn meritorious service and become a general?"
"Buli, there are many ways to change the world. Sometimes, people in this era need to experience and realize those. We are just the guides to influence other people's thoughts and behaviors, not the fire of the times." Master stopped He stepped down and murmured, Xia Buli half understood what he heard, and couldn't help but refute.
"Master, have you made a mistake? We are here now. If we have the ability to change, why don't we change? We can't wait for others to change. How do you know? Do you think the same?
What if they also think that it should be changed by others?Wouldn't all of this become unchanged? "
The master's smile remained the same, and he stretched out his hand to ruffle the hair of the chaotic man, and said in a meaningful tone, "I can't change this troubled world, and you know that your master is not a reliable person!"
Xia Buli couldn't see Master's face clearly, and he didn't want to see the other person's expression clearly at this time. He was very angry now, and Master was making excuses for his laziness again!
He doesn't want to be like the master who doesn't care about this troubled world, he wants to use what the master gave him to do something within his ability.
Before arriving at the capital of Zhao State, Xia Buli's behavior changed. He was no longer a bystander like the master, and would intervene whenever something happened on the road.
The master did not stop his actions, and allowed him to destroy a den of thieves, arrest a family of thieves, conduct laundering... ideological education, and try to make them change their ways and start a new life.
But no matter what Xia Buli did, these people still looked numb, and there was no hope in their eyes, and none of Xia Buli's words seemed to be able to touch their hearts.
This caused Xia Buli to have a deep self-doubt. When he left, seeing the numb people, he couldn't help but grabbed the master's sleeve, "Master, did I do something wrong?"
"Your heart is good, and your ideas are right, but in this era, what is needed is not preaching, what is needed is change, and it is peace and happiness that can be placed in front of everyone. The people don't care who is the king at all. They I only care about my own life and my family.
If you can't even survive, no matter what you talk about, it's just a castle in the air, and they don't care.
When you are full and warm, you think about lust, and when you are hungry and cold, you steal your heart..."
Xia Buli wrinkled his little nose, and at the end, he couldn't hear the Master's muttering clearly.

Thank you for the monthly ticket support of Bianjiang~!Thank you X Sauce for your monthly ticket support~!
The 840th step to achieve Yuelao: Abandon the thief and follow the hero?
Leaving the Kingdom of Wei with his master, the experience along the way made the young Xia Buli feel a little sluggish and unable to cheer up.
Not long ago, he followed a thief, found a den of thieves, and arrested a group of thieves. He originally gave them some money in order to make them listen to him and change their minds.
But the numb expressions on the faces of those people made Xia Buli doubt himself.
He didn't blame Master for only watching him fail and not coming to help him, but he was very puzzled why that group of people became like that.
He still doesn't understand many things, so he can only listen to him say some things that he half understands beside his master.
He wrote down those words, maybe when he grows up, he will understand the meaning of those words.
Along the way, under the encouragement of Master, Xia Buli did not stop trying.Every time he fails, the master will ask him to think about the reasons for the failure, summarize these reasons, and try again.
Xia Buli also lost his temper. The more the other party frustrated his confidence, the more he would not be reconciled. No matter what, he must succeed once!Even if there is only one person!
As long as one person changes, he has the confidence to continue.
Gradually, the master stopped telling him about the war situation in various places, and the pace of Xiabuli also completely slowed down.
He no longer simply only contacts those who commit crimes, and no longer simply wants to change them.
He began to think seriously, why are those people unwilling to listen to his words?He reached out to other people.
However, his slovenly appearance is not so pleasing, he failed to strike up a few times, and when he saw the disgusted expression when others looked at him, he was a little enlightened, but not very deep, so he could only ask the master.
"Master, I don't know if it's my illusion, other people seem to like to communicate with people who are similar to themselves.
First from the clothes, then from the conversation, and then from the thoughts of each other... It seems that everyone is always wary of people who are different from themselves... But... why?Aren't we the same person from the outside? "
In the small teahouse, the Master looked at Xia Buli who had returned from another failure, helped him tidy up his messy hair, and said with a smile, "There are no two identical things in this world. Everything is different. People will People who are different from themselves have a vigilant heart, which is also derived from the biological genetic instinct.
From a long time ago, creatures have been in the path of survival of the fittest. Weak beings will be abandoned by their own species, and the old and frail will be swallowed by other beasts. It was like that a long time ago.
So not only humans, but all living creatures are always on guard against all things that are different from themselves.
They will first confirm whether the other party is the same as themselves, and then confirm whether the other party is harmful, what type of existence they belong to, and can they hunt together?Or can it be prey?Or, you need to stay away as soon as you see it.
Although people have transitioned from the most primitive state to the present, is this troubled world not another form of avenue forest?
People cannot get rid of the [experience] and instinct left over from the ancient past.
Unless... most of them can understand the truth and understand right and wrong, but this cannot be changed by a single individual, and more coercive means are needed to restrain and guide them. "
"Is that why there is a theory of a hundred schools of thought?" Xia Buli still half understood, but at least he understood a little bit, people are still making progress and thinking.At least, there are so many theories that are guiding.
"It's not enough just to have theories of a hundred schools of thought among the people, it must be accepted by the public." Master said.
When Xia Buli heard this, he squatted down with a headache, let the public accept it?Just talking about it is still very easy, but he tried it himself, and he couldn't even convince a single person!
"It's too difficult!" Xia Buli was dejected, "Everyone hates me now..."
"So you need to learn to imitate." The master helped him tidy up his clothes, and helped the child tie the belt around his waist in a professional way.
Xia Buli let him do this, and couldn't help but tilt his head, "Mimicry? What is that?"
"That's a way for creatures to protect themselves." The master replied, after thinking for a while, he gave an example, "Do you still remember that green snake we met when we were in the woods?"
"Ah! The snake that startled me!" Xia Buli widened his eyes, remembering the experience when he and his master passed through the woods, and still had some lingering fears, "I didn't even find it, but it shocked me! "
"Do you know why you didn't find it?" The Master said persuasively.
Xia Buli didn't need to think too much about this question, and replied: "It's the same color as the leaves, and it's hiding in the trees, so I didn't notice it. If it was a white snake, I would have spotted it!"
"Yeah, just because it makes itself look like the whole forest, we can't recognize it with naked eyes, so we will approach it unsuspectingly. We didn't realize that there was such a dangerous existence until it showed hostility and attacked suddenly."
While the master was speaking, he had already taken out his handkerchief, and began to wipe his face for help.
Xia Buli's eyes were extremely bright, and he quickly understood why the master told him this. He looked up at the master and asked, "Is that the snake's mimicry? It makes itself blend into the forest. Everyone uses their eyes Seeing things, so I can't see his danger? If I'm like them, they won't be hostile to me?"
"You really deserve to be my student, you can see through at once." The master smiled and boasted, and put away the handkerchief.
Xiao Er, who was serving refreshments at the side, was stunned for a moment when he saw Xia Buli, and quickly turned his eyes to Master, "It turns out that this young master is a student of Master, and he looks so handsome!"
The master turned his head to look at Xiao Er, the smile that was originally inseparable from the hero changed a little, and he seemed a little casual, "The appearance is all given by the parents, so what has it to do with me? In other words, he understands good and bad."
The shop clerk smiled awkwardly, saying that the human nature of each theory is weird, and he has seen it.
But the other party asked him to take the initiative to tell a child what he said just now, and he really didn't know what he should say...
"Thank you for the compliment. I have been told that I am good-looking since I was a child. Although I can't see it myself, but you also said so, little brother, it must be really good, right?"
Xia Buli didn't wait for Xiao Er to continue to be in trouble, he spoke first, and touched his own cheek with his fingers, showing a big smile.
Xiao Er was unconsciously happy because of the words that the hero never leaves. He didn't notice anything special in what the child said, but he felt quite happy when he heard what he said.
He couldn't help but lower his body and look at the hero, "How old are you, child? What's your name? What are you doing here with your wife?"
Xia Buli answered Xiao Er's first two questions truthfully. When it came to the last question, he hesitated for a moment, and replied with some melancholy, "I hope there will be no more starvation, no more bandits, no more wives in this world." I want to guide people who have done wrong things, but everyone seems to be unwilling to listen to me and avoid me."
Xiaoer was stunned when he heard this, and was a little moved. He heard from the shopkeeper that all schools of thought have lofty ideals, and they are all great figures. He never expected...that a child he met today could have such a wish.
Thinking of the conversations between Master and Xia Buli he overheard just now, he didn't want to hurt the child's heart, he hesitated and said: "You will succeed, as long as the troubled times are over, the day you expect will definitely come."
The brilliance in Xia Buli's eyes became even brighter. Although he might not be a big shot, he was the first person among the many people Xia Buli met who didn't laugh at him, but believed in him.
This swept away Xia Buli's depressed mood, and the smile unconsciously reappeared on his face, but it was not as formal as before.
This smile is very beautiful, not the kind of beauty on the outside. Xiaoer doesn't know how to describe the feeling he saw. He feels that it is a kind of hope, which is shown by something that he has lost but the other party has not lost. beautiful.
Maybe... the troubled times will end soon, right?
This idea involuntarily came to Xiao Er's mind, and he also smiled, "I really want to see the world in your eyes."
"That's not the world in my eyes, it will definitely become the world in everyone's eyes!" The childish words of the child remained in Xiaoer's heart until he was old, and until that day came, he still did not forget it.
...
"In a good mood?" Looking at the child who became confident again, the master smiled with the same viciousness.
Xia Buli glanced at him, "I want to learn mimicry, I want to blend in with them!"
"It's hard, isn't it? You might forget your true heart." The Master reminded.
"Master, have you ever forgotten your true heart?" Xia Buli didn't refute, but looked up at the side of Master's face, and asked back.
