Chapter 869 Gongzi Yu
Named "Li Dan", with the "Tao Te Ching" written by Daode Tianzun himself, Meng Qi subconsciously thought of preaching on behalf of Tai Shang.
Tai Shang escaped from the Conferred God World and could not show up again. After realizing his involvement with Yuanshi Tianzun and Yuxu Palace, he gave him the "Tao Te Ching" and led him to preach in this world?
At this point, trapped in the chess game and having experienced a lot, Meng Qi is no longer as ignorant as before. He is always a little wary of coincidences, but now it can't be described as coincidence, it's almost "intentional"!
If Tai Shang wanted to transform himself into Li Dan and preach for him, the matter of the earth's body must be clear and calculated, otherwise there would not be the current situation, so he is at least neutral. Although he did not provide assistance and help, at least he did not expose it.
If he regarded the Heavenly Lord of Daode as the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation or a group of powerful people behind him, then his last trump card would be exposed, and he would no longer see any hope of getting rid of his "fish" identity. He could only pray day and night for other powerful people to get involved, and life and death would no longer have anything to do with his efforts.
This was the situation Meng Qi least wanted to see. Fate was controlled by others, and he had no control over it. It didn't matter whether he tried or gave up, which was equivalent to denying himself. If this was the case, he would rather choose to have a glimmer of hope to grasp, even if he was torn to pieces, turned to ashes, and died in a blaze of glory, it would be better than this!
Therefore, Meng Qi subconsciously separated the Heavenly Lord of Daode from the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. At least so far, except for the fact that the matter of the Tao Te Ching had been known by the Six Paths, there was no sign that they were in cahoots.
Taking a breath, Meng Qi's thoughts fluctuated, thinking about what to do.
Things had already come to him, and it was unwise to escape or refuse. If he annoyed the Supreme because of this, or if this was his good intention to help him out of trouble, then it would be too late to regret.
But preaching for him is a "technical job". If you show your "talent" directly, "conquer" Li Rong, become a member of the Luoyi keeper's room, and then read all the books, understand etiquette, understand morality, and become famous, attracting people like Confucius to seek advice, then you will be discovered by the six ways in a minute, and all your secret efforts will become a laughing stock!
Therefore, you still have to keep a low profile, delay for a few years, make other preparations, and wait until the master steps into the critical moment of cutting off the past, and then cooperate to open a world avenue, so as to borrow the power of the entire Conferred God to help.
The timing must be grasped accurately and properly. If you are late, the master will easily fail, and if you are early, the six ways will discover it in advance.
"Thank you for the name given by the keeper of the treasury." Meng Qi arched his hands and deliberately used Li Rong's official name as a respectful title.
Li Rong was stunned: "Have you read the scrolls and can recognize words and sentences?"
Not like an ordinary refugee!
"I had a teacher when I was young." Meng Qi misled the other party to position himself as a ruined gentry.
Li Rong already felt a sense of accomplishment that Meng Qi listened to his teachings and stopped begging. Now he was even more fond of his talent. He stroked his beard and said, "Yes, you will be called the Keeper of the Treasury in the future, not the Master. But when you first enter the Li Mansion, you still have to start as a menial servant. You will be responsible for cleaning the courtyard in front."
"Yes, Keeper of the Treasury." Meng Qi hoped to be so low-key.
Watching him being taken away by other servants, Li Jianjia pouted: "You can't tell that he has studied."
"You can't judge a person by his appearance." Li Rong shook his head and sighed, "This shows the influence of the chaos and frequent wars in the world. A descendant of a doctor has ended up in such a situation. If you don't learn martial arts well, you will be more miserable than him when the chaos spreads to this point."
As for the matter of defending Luoyi, Li Rong had already seen through the weakness of the Zhou royal family and no longer had any illusions.
In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.
Because of the name "Li Dan", Meng Qi did not dare to neglect it. With the help of the immortal traces, he slightly adjusted the time and separated the day and night. When the body was in the day, the earth body was in the night, and vice versa. In this way, he could barely take care of both ends. Where the day was, the consciousness was there, so as to avoid mistakes.
This is also one of the reasons why Meng Qi did not dare to directly exchange for a longer time to practice. In a few years, who knows what the earth body will encounter.
With a rustling sound, Meng Qi swept the courtyard, concentrating and meticulous, as if this was not a lowly chores, but the most sacred and worthwhile thing.
Through the window of the study, Li Rong and Li Jianjia watched Meng Qi cleaning, and they were actually infected with a bit of peace and relaxation.
"He does menial work without slacking off, and he does not fall into hardship. Jianjia, just this mentality, this will, and this concentration, he is a hundred times and a thousand times stronger than you, you should learn this well." Li Rong sighed.
Li Jianjia's eyes flickered, and she snorted, "So what? He's still cleaning the courtyard."
She actually admired Meng Qi's concentration and meticulousness, and felt that she would definitely not be able to do it, but she couldn't help but talk back when her father taught her so.
Li Rong laughed, "Father is testing him. Now that he has passed the test, he will become a long-serving servant, responsible for cleaning and organizing the study and the storage room. If he has free time, he can read the collection and practice martial arts."
"It's a pity that he has wasted his best time. It's hard to achieve success in practicing martial arts, and I'm afraid he won't become a teacher in reading." Li Jianjia said stubbornly again, but what she said was also the fact she recognized.
Li Rong didn't say much, and agreed with Li Jianjia's judgment, but this was to train a servant like a long-serving servant, not a great general or a great sage, so it was enough.
He turned around and walked behind the table, knelt down, and looked through the various news collected by the servants and copied by the court.
Suddenly, Li Rong suddenly took a picture and cut the hard case into two parts. He was breathing rapidly, blowing his beard, and his anger was beyond words.
"Father, what's wrong?" Li Jianjia stared blankly with a pair of wonderful eyes.
"The Mohists of Qi State abolished many etiquettes in the name of being cumbersome and useless, not only ceremonial funerals but also downplaying the principle of superiority and inferiority." Li Rong said angrily, "Etiquette is ruined and music is ruined! Seriously, etiquette is ruined and music is ruined! Su Mozhen is the first person in history. A treacherous one!”
"People's hearts are not ancient, people's hearts are not ancient, I just hate that I don't have enough strength to kill this thief!"
Sneeze... Meng Qi sneezed, feeling like he had been shot again, and then silently continued sweeping the floor.
Li Rong put his hands on his back and walked back and forth in the study, his anger gradually dissipating. When he saw Meng Qi's every move, which was concentrated and unaffected by external objects, he finally calmed down, shook his head, with a frustrated face, returned to the desk again, and looked through other things. paper.
At the end, he saw a greeting card and opened it in confusion:
"Zhongshan Kingdom Ji Yu?" Li Rong muttered to himself.
Li Jianjia was responsible for helping his father sort out these things. Hearing this, he said, "Gong Ziyu? Does father want to see the greeting card he handed over today?"
"What's his origin?" Li Rong asked.
Li Jianjia recalled the words of the servant in charge of this matter: "He is a young master of the Zhongshan Kingdom. It is said that he is rich in knowledge and knows the general trend of the world. After the fall of Zhongshan, he has been living in exile in other countries. He did not expect to come to Luoyi."
"A rich scholar? That's good to see." Li Rong nodded.
…………
A carriage drove slowly towards Shouzang Shifu, neither fast nor slow, like an outing.
In the car sat a man with a crown, black hair, a wide robe and long sleeves. His facial features were considered to be of high quality, a bit noble, but there was always a bit of frivolity and impetuousness between his brows.
He closed his eyes, relaxed his mood, and calmed his expression. At this moment, a servant with extraordinary skills got in through the car window and handed over a few pieces of paper: "Master, what you want."
This person was Gong Ziyu. He reached out to take the paper, signaled the servant to step back, and then slowly read it:
"...There is no Li Dan...no Lao Dan...no Li Er...no Boyang...it seems that there is really no Taishang Xianshi, enlightenment path in the Cangzang Room..."
A smile appeared on Gong Ziyu's face. I am afraid that no one in this world knows that there may be an incarnation of the Moral God in the small Luoyi Cangzang room. If he appears, he will become a teacher for all generations. The handwritten moral five thousand The words contain the true meaning of the great road and open up the way to this world!
If he hadn't come from the earth and traveled here by chance, he would never have guessed it.
Now that the Supreme Being has not manifested himself, wouldn't this merit and honor be cheap for him?
He has been in Gongziyu for several years, relying on what he learned in his previous life, and gradually gained the reputation of being a rich scholar. When he occasionally preached a few words that had not yet appeared among the scholars, he actually gained moral and meritorious qualities. This was an unexpected encounter with him. The skills complemented each other, making his strength improve by leaps and bounds.
After tasting the sweetness, he set his sights on Luoyi and the storage room. If the Supreme Being didn't show up, it would be his chance!
Nowadays, many scholars have appeared. If the Supreme Being does not appear in the world and preach the Dao, it stands to reason that he will not appear in the world again, because he has noticed that the embryonic form of Confucianism has begun to appear.
When the time comes, he will be the saint who opens the way to this world!
In the beautiful imagination, the carriage arrived at Li's house. Under the guidance of the house servant, Gong Ziyu entered the study and saw two men and one woman inside. The man with a white face and long beard was Li Rong, the woman seemed to be his daughter, and the other one. The man has a vicissitudes of appearance, showing signs of premature aging, as if he is a domestic servant.
After greeting each other, Gongzi Yu made it clear why he came. He said that he saw the collapse of etiquette in this world, and his own knowledge was shallow, so he felt helpless. He heard that Luoyi's keeper Mingxiao etiquette came here to ask for advice, and asked Li Rong to allow him to translate it. Look at the collection of books.
These words hit Li Rong's itch, and he praised Gong Ziyu so much that he agreed immediately.
Gong Ziyu pretended to sigh and said: "There is no morality or morality in this world, people's hearts are not ancient, chaos is frequent, and I am not talented. I hope to read through the collection of books and find out where the truth lies."
This is a foreshadowing to prevent "big news" from making people suspicious in the future, and he can't remember the complete "Tao Te Ching", so he needs Li Rong's help to complete it.
"This is a great thing to say!" Li Rong said while stroking his hands, Meng Qi curled his lips, this guy can really pretend, he thinks he is a moral saint.
Gong Ziyu was secretly proud and pretended to be humble: "The history of Shouzang is over-reputed."
Haha, I will open the road!
Before he finished speaking, he heard Li Rong order: "Li Dan, take Gong Ziyu to the storage room first."
Li Dan? Gong Ziyu was stunned.
Li Dan!
His expression suddenly froze on his face, turning white and red, red and black, black and white, as if he had opened a dye shop.
Learning to drive, I came back late and forgot the time. .
