Chapter 266 Strong Enemy

The Minister of the Honglu Temple watched the battle below.

He almost couldn't control himself and almost crushed the armrest of the chair.

This was very rare for a third-rank existence like him, although he was not a real third-rank.

His real cultivation was a fourth-rank Confucian cultivator of humanity, and his official position was a third-rank minister.

But even so, it was rare for him to lose his composure and almost lose control of his power.

And now, it was like this.

"Nineteen..." He counted silently.

Then.

"Twenty...!" He finally couldn't help it and leaked out extremely subtle pressure, and the tables and chairs around him were a little cracked.

These tables and chairs are magic weapons and are very valuable, but now they have been broken by the pressure he leaked unconsciously.

Not far away, the young master of Wushen Mountain defeated twenty people in a row!

They are all famous young talents. You know, those who are qualified to attend this banquet are all geniuses with high hopes in various departments, and they are here to see the world.

But the young master of Wushen Mountain...

He is well-informed and good at talking about theories, so I won't talk about him.

His words were shocking and made people grit their teeth, but he also pointed out solid evidence to shock the audience, causing waves of fear below.

Just like what Li Qi said, he was not afraid of anyone when it came to reciting books.

As a third-rank official, the Minister of Honglu Temple had countless ways to refute Li Qi in his mind, but he could only see the juniors below being beaten!

This made him even more annoyed.

Moreover, it was not that there had never been someone who could refute him.

However, he immediately beat up the junior he saw, saying that the other party was only good at talking and did not understand the principles he was talking about.

It was this incident that made the Minister of Honglu Temple completely lose his composure.

But he also felt extremely surprised.

How could it be possible?

He observed the other party's age in spirit and soul, and found that he was only in his twenties or thirties. How did he memorize tens of thousands of ancient books? Every word and sentence is from the classics, with great adaptation and deep understanding. The key is that he can also use the corresponding magic.

However, how can a man in his twenties or thirties remember so many things even if he has been practicing since his mother's womb? And he can understand so deeply.

Does he have thirty hours a day? !

Doesn't he practice anymore? All the time is spent on memorizing and learning? !

This is not something that can be done by distorting the light of the universe, but it is practical. It only took so much time, because even if the light of the universe is distorted, the age will advance normally.

What's more terrifying is that the Minister of Honglu Temple used his magical powers to observe the cultivation veins of this son of Wushen Mountain and found that he had only practiced for more than three years.

More than three years, he entered the eighth rank at a fast pace. At the same time, he is knowledgeable and has a solid foundation. He can even win the upper hand in a debate.

How is it possible! ?

Has the quality of Wushen Mountain's personnel reached this level now! Is this a natural spirit child picked up from that mountain ditch?

One level of impact after another eventually caused this third rank to lose his composure a little.

This slight loss of composure did not escape the eyes of the great wizard opposite.

The great wizard took a look and deliberately let out a very clear low laugh.

This made the Minister of the Honglu Temple even more furious!

No matter what the junior would do, he would not lose his composure, but the mockery of a great wizard of the same rank really made him angry.

However, after being really angry, his expression became calm, and even his eyes softened.

Anger never clouded his mind.

How could he practice to this point if he couldn't even control his own thoughts?

However, he still had to find a way to deal with it.

Since the other party is a real genius, I'm afraid I have to find those geniuses who are worth looking forward to to stop him, otherwise it would be a shame.

This is the face of the Tang Dynasty!

He took a breath lightly, and his mind moved.

Even the great wizard on the opposite side didn't notice that a secret message was transmitted from here to the human terminal, spread to the dragon vein, and then passed all the way to the Imperial College.

————————

At this moment in the Imperial College.

In a college.

A man who looked like a modest gentleman suddenly raised his head from the pile of books.

He looked ordinary, but his temperament was excellent. It seemed that there was a faint sense of righteousness in his body. Although his appearance was ordinary, he gave people an extremely fresh and comfortable feeling, like a green bamboo.

Green bamboo is not as beautiful and dazzling as flowers, but it can make people feel refreshed.

He looked up at the door because someone was outside.

However, he was not angry that his research was interrupted, because he knew that someone must have something to disturb him.

But someone pushed the door in.

It was the doorman.

"Liu Zhijiang, there is news for you, expedited and encrypted. Look at the logo. It is sent by a purple-robed official. Please deal with it quickly. The things will be placed here first." The doorman said very respectfully, and then looked at the "Liu Zhijiang" with admiration.

Because the other party is indeed worthy of admiration.

Some students in the Imperial College, although they have not graduated yet, have already obtained official positions, that is, official positions in the Imperial College.

There are tutors in the Imperial College, whose official title is Four-door Doctor, who is of the seventh rank. They are in charge of the ceremony of collecting tuition, supervising classes, examinations, and selecting the best candidates, called "selectors".

To put it simply, they are the dean of teaching, responsible for supervising studies and examinations, and judging the performance of students in the Imperial College.

Four-door Doctor has three assistants, who are of the eighth rank.

There are also four direct lecturers, whose salaries and grants are the same as those of direct officials.

This Liu Zhijiao held the post of Zhijiao as a student.

Directly talking about his responsibilities, he holds the position of assistant doctor and teaching assistant, specializing in teaching Confucian classics. That is to say, although he is a student, he is actually teaching other students.

What kind of quality and knowledge are the students of Taixue? They are both students, but they can teach them. How good is this Liu Zhiguo?

That's why the concierge gave him an admiring look.

In fact, most Tai students who take Confucian classics classes will respect Liu Zhijiao, who can be called a 'big brother'.

Perseverance and courage, charity, wisdom, erudition, careful thinking and discernment...

Evaluate him with as many compliments as you want.

Some people even say that every time someone thinks of a good word, they can better understand what Liu Zhi said.

Jijiu of Taiyuan University personally commented on his academic performance: "Liu Junyi is erudite and knows everything, from astronomy, laws and calendars, to mountains and rivers, collating classics and history, and compiling various books. He is well aware of the pros and cons of governing chaos in ancient and modern times, and has a thorough understanding of practice." The classics are compiled by various schools since the Tang Dynasty, and the history books are compiled by various schools."

Such outstanding talents can be ranked in the top ten even in a place like Taixue where geniuses gather.

The only pity is that his cultivation level is average. Because he focuses on the scriptures and meanings of various aspects, he does not have so much energy to improve his cultivation level. As a result, he is now in his forties and is about to graduate, but he is still at the eighth level.

But the official positions in the Tang Dynasty were set up for such talents.

Even if you devote yourself to studying and doing research and don't have the time and energy to accumulate cultivation, you can still be directly promoted to a high rank through official positions without worrying about longevity.

Everything was very well arranged.

Liu Junyi put down the book, picked up the terminal, and began to read the information on it.

"News from Honglu Temple..." he murmured.

Honglu Temple invited him to a foreign banquet to debate with others?

To be honest, he didn't like arguing with people very much, but after all, this was an invitation from a purple-robed minister and it was hard to refuse.

Moreover, the news said that this young master from Wushenshan, who came from another place, was very knowledgeable and had a rare opponent. He was also very curious that there was such a person.

Well...in that case, let's go and take a look.

Liu Junyi put away his things, adjusted his Confucian shirt, and went out quietly.

Didn't alarm anyone.

But he saw a breeze blowing around his body,

Mu Mu The breeze is coming, and the green shirt is blowing.

The green shirt is like spring grass, the grass is long and windy.

I saw algae in the water, and the green lotus came out of the dust.

Repair the Tu Chixuan car and carry the light boat on the Changchuan River.

As the wind blows, he goes with the wind.

But a moment later, on the island in the river in Dadu, a Confucian scholar in green clothes came gracefully, walking on the road like an ordinary person.

——————————

At this time, Li Qi was blaming his twenty-fifth opponent.

He shouted loudly: "The sage said that the etiquette of governing the ancestral temple is worthy of the gods of heaven and earth; the outspoken etiquette of governing is enough to establish the respect of everyone above and below. You talk about etiquette in your mouth, but you try to win with a strange move. It shows that you don't believe it. Etiquette, words and deeds are not consistent, you know but don’t act, and you still try to talk about etiquette?”

Following Li Qi's scolding, another person retreated in shame.

The scene was silent, and no one stood up to challenge Li Qi for the time being.

Li Qi was talking and fighting, and he had swept through twenty-five people in a row, and the others no longer dared to get up easily.

The embarrassment is small, but I am afraid that it will continue to increase Li Qizhi's power.

A person's spirit has its own courage. Li Qilian stood with twenty-five people, and his victory accumulated, and his spirit was powerful. It was precisely the tendency that he became braver with each battle. No one dared to challenge him lightly, for fear that he would make his momentum grow bigger and bigger. .

It's better to let Li Qi dry out and let his momentum subside before challenging him again.

But at this time, everyone in the Wushen Mountain next to them was enjoying themselves. Things were getting cold in front of others, but they deliberately started cutting meat to eat, chatting and drinking.

Yanke and Zhong Minglou were relatively restrained and just started eating.

Boyue, who was not afraid of death, even ran to propose a toast to the witch, laughing loudly as if he had never been beaten.

But with Li Qi in front, he wouldn't be able to hit them.

However, just when Li Qidu thought the group would stop, someone suddenly answered him.

"The rituals of the husband guide heaven and earth; they manage human relations, and when they are used to govern, they will flourish together with heaven and earth. Therefore, Zuo in the 26th year of the Zhao Dynasty said that Yan Zi said: "Rites can be used for a country for a long time, and they are integrated with heaven and earth. "Based on this, Emperor Sui first came up with the method of grasping the machine, using the method of operating the fighting machine, and pointing to the sky to administer politics and religion."

"Ritual is the principle of heaven and earth. Why can't strange moves be regarded as etiquette?"

Li Qi looked towards where the sound came from. A monk in green shirt with an easy-going temperament came from outside.

The Confucian scholar in green shirt came over and continued Li Qi's previous topic, saying this.

Li Qi's heart trembled.

Even the people in Wushen Mountain put down their food and looked at the newly arrived Confucian scholar, Mida Wu also narrowed his eyes slightly.

the other side.

Many people in the Tang Dynasty were refreshed, and the expression of Honglu Temple Minister became relaxed.

Some Confucian scholars whispered: "It's Mr. Liu."

"It's actually Liu Jun, why is he here?"

"Who is Mr. Liu? But he seems to be able to catch it?"

But some people didn't know him and quickly asked the people around them who Liu Jun was.

However, Liu Junyi ignored the whispers around him and continued to move forward, asking Li Qiqi:

"Ritual is the change of heaven and earth, the birth of politics and religion. It started from the beginning of the human emperor, and after the emperor Sui, it lasted for six periods and ninety-one generations until Fuxi first made the ten-word teaching. This is how it was established. Regardless of Fuxi and Sui, they are all human emperors. It can be seen that ritual comes from the human emperor and human nature."

"Since you are a witch, how dare you talk about ritual to human nature? What does ritual have to do with witches? Young master mistakenly thinks that ritual is a restraint of vulgar rituals, and even uses this as a basis to refute others. Do you really understand ritual?"

Liu Junyi walked forward slowly, walked to Li Qi's position, and asked Li Qi.

The scene was silent, and everyone looked over here.

Li Qi frowned, the other party asked the point.

If you understand "ritual" from this direction, then what Li Qi just said is purely a fallacy and unconvincing.

At the same time, he saw "rules" unfolding around him.

Li Qi felt that there was an unknown force that formed a "ritual system" that bound his limbs and made it difficult for him to move.

But...

It's very gentle, not aggressive, just a simple restraint.

It's just like water.

If you just soak in it, you will feel almost nothing, as if it doesn't exist.

But if you want to move faster, the weak water will form a huge resistance. The arrow that can easily break the speed of sound in the air can't move in the water.

Li Qi felt that he was wrapped in water. As long as he followed the direction fixed by the "water", he could move without hindrance, but if he wanted to go against the current, it would be difficult.

Feeling this restraint, Li Qi immediately became serious.

He knew that this was the other party's understanding of etiquette and the corresponding magic.

So, Li Qi looked at the other party, thinking seriously, and then he came to the conclusion: "What is the origin of the gentleman's words about etiquette? The sage said: People are born with desires. If they cannot get what they want, they cannot help but seek. If they seek without limits and boundaries, they cannot help but fight; fighting leads to chaos, and chaos leads to poverty. The ancient kings hated chaos, so they made etiquette and morality to divide it, to nourish people's desires and give people what they want. So that desires will not be exhausted by things, and things will not be succumbed to desires. The two will grow together, and this is where etiquette comes from."

What Li Qi said is what he thinks is the origin of etiquette.

People are born with desires. If they want to satisfy their desires, they will ask for something from the outside world. If they ask for it without limits and without standards, there will be fights.

Fighting will lead to chaos, and chaos will lead to poverty. The ancient sage kings hated chaos, so they made etiquette regulations to make materials and desires restrain each other and maintain long-term coordinated development. This is the origin of etiquette.

"Rituals are regulated by people and created by ancient sage kings. What is the connection with the principles of nature? Do gentlemen think that the principles of nature created the ritual system?" Li Qi asked back.

At this time, the Confucian scholar immediately replied: "Why not? At that time, the nature was simple, and things naturally had rituals when they were born. Therefore, lambs kneel to suckle, wild geese line up, and ants can form an army. How can they be taught? After the three talents are determined, rituals naturally exist."

Rituals themselves are natural, so lambs kneel to suckle, wild geese line up by themselves, and ants can form an army. These are all natural rituals.

As the two debated, the techniques of both sides also unfolded.

The small fish are gone, and the fierce guys are here.
