The Lord who use immortals as food

Qu Xin looked up at him.

"In two days." Pei Ye said while lying on his stomach, "I'll buy some more things. Please take them with you."

Qu Xin lowered his head again.

Qu Xin kept him for a day, and Pei Ye slept peacefully in the medical building for a night, resting his body and recovering his spirit.

After the resurrection of the true qi, the injury was just an injury, and it no longer affected the vitality of the whole body. Pei Ye got up and put on his clothes and boots, but still asked for the medical fee list. Looking at the numbers on it, he gritted his teeth and waved to the girl who was looking at him, saying, "Don't worry, it's not less for you!"

They made an appointment to come back for a follow-up visit in two days, and left the medical building.

Qi Zhaohua was waiting in the car, and prepared tea and breakfast for him.

Pei Ye lifted the curtain and boarded the carriage, smiling, "Mr. Qi, are you not busy today?"

"My Lord said you were injured, and he was afraid that you might be inconvenient, so he sent me to take care of you, and also invited a royal doctor. Who knew that I found out yesterday that you came here by yourself." Qi Zhaohua looked at the back of the girl who sent him out. Several doctors were looking down at her and asking her, and turned back to look at Pei Ye, "Who is this?"

"Qu Xin, the [Little Medicine Lord] of Taishan Medicine House, she treated my injuries when I was in Shaolong before, so I know her." Pei Ye put away the pill bottle that Qu Xin gave him, and picked up a small bun.

"Oh"

After finishing his meal, Pei Ye looked at the route of the carriage: "Where are we going?"

"Imperial Academy, isn't it time for Pei Shaoxia to attend class today?"

"."

"Pei Shaoxia, just go to class, the case is getting better. I'll take Pei Shaoxia back to the academy to meet with you after class today."

The carriage drove into the Tang Dynasty academy quickly. Pei Ye got off the car and was about to say goodbye, but saw Qi Zhaohua also walked down the curtain.

"Pei Shaoxia, go by yourself." Qi Zhaohua smiled and gestured, "I just happen to have something to do."

Pei Ye tilted his head and saw Fang Jidao holding two books and staring at the sky in a distant pavilion. At this time, he seemed to notice his gaze, turned around, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Pei Ye waved to him and left.

He wrapped his clothes. It was still very cold, but there was golden sunshine. In the peaceful and harmonious academy, groups of scholars came and went, and there was a vibrant atmosphere.

Qi Zhaohua was very considerate and brought him a pen and a book. Pei Ye sighed and walked into the depths. The last time he made a mistake, he had left a shadow on him. He decided not to hand in homework in the future. But it was still quite interesting to just listen to the class and listen to the teachers citing and talking about some subtle and profound things.

Pei Ye had vaguely heard his name three times along the way.

Even among the groups of men and women, there was always a tone of astonishment, mostly curious looks, and the conversation was full of keywords such as "Liguan", "Xichi", "Taiping Cao Gang", "Di Jiu", "Qiu Tianyu", "Yan Feiqing".

He realized at this time that after a day and a night, the matter had begun to spread and ferment in Shenjing.

From the common people to the scholars to the officialdom, people's concerns are different, but they are all triggered by this incident. It can be imagined that in the future, Xu Chuo will use this power to reshuffle many places.

But that is a topic for the evening. Pei Ye approached the school with his schoolbag at this time, and was surprised to find that there were circles of scholars in front of the door.

Obviously, there were more than students from the four schools, and obviously more than students from their year. People looked into the school. When Pei Ye walked over blankly, he heard their voices and his body could not help but pause.

"Which one is Pei Ye?"

"I don't know. I hope I found the wrong one."

"It is said that he is on this level."

"Does he really know Yan Feiqing?"

"He is injured. Maybe he won't come today."

"But the seats are full."

"Maybe I didn't see clearly. Is the one who kills people without blinking really studying here?"

"Is he really that powerful? Can Qi Sheng kill the master? How did he fight that day?"

"Don't worry. "Chang'an Sword Affairs" published the news yesterday, saying that Cui Zhaoye is already writing sword reviews."

"I have never heard of this person."

"The lecture is coming. Let's go first."

Pei Ye lowered his head and squeezed through the crowd. For a while, no one paid attention to him. Li Mingqiu also arrived at this time. The scholars who were watching bowed and saluted. Some dispersed, while others greeted him carefully.

Pei Ye saluted the old gentleman first. Li Mingqiu looked him up and down and nodded.

Pei Ye entered the door, and from the first glance, the tide of silence quickly spread throughout the school. Hundreds of eyes looked at the figure who walked in.

Unlike the scholars outside the door who heard some rumors and rushed to watch the excitement, everyone in the school knew him. I still remember clearly that the young man stood up from the back seat, looked around the whole school and said calmly: "I said I would run the Taiping Cao Gang. It won't survive the tenth day."

At that time, people had different ideas in their hearts. Although they admired his toughness, they rarely trusted him.

Who knew he really agreed.

On the night when Di Jiu's life and death were unknown, the three divisions were in name only, and the Taiping Cao Gang was at its peak, He Yan Feiqing used two swords to overturn this behemoth that was pressing on Baifang. Before that night, how many people were proud to meet the heroes under the Taiping banner, and how many people admired the name and demeanor of [Taiping Quail], including many students sitting here.

People now know that his sword is actually ten times harder than his words.

At this time, this young man walked in. His clothes were clean, his posture was upright, and his expression was as quiet and gentle as before. It was hard to imagine the rumored way that he looked coldly at the general and killed five with one sword.

In fact, this is what Shenjing is constantly discussing now - a new name has emerged, but how can people who have not witnessed the battle define his true position?

Not to mention there are too many people who don’t know how to practice.

Therefore, many times the strength of a cultivator has to be explained to everyone through the Crane Fu List or the Sword Critic.

Pei Ye was a little surprised at the silence he had caused, and turned to look at everyone. Many people looked away unnaturally, and many others looked at him with bright eyes. In the back seat, Tinghua raised her hand to him slightly.

Pei Ye nodded to these acquaintances, but today he came later, and there was indeed no empty seat in the back. It was not until he moved his eyes to the front row that he saw the only empty seat next to Chang Sun Jue.

When the girl saw him looking at her, she was startled and moved her things back to make room for him.

He had met this girl several times. Pei Ye walked over and sat down, but saw her looking up at him in a daze. Pei Ye nodded to her hesitantly, and the girl quickly returned the greeting. , sit upright.

But after a pause, the girl tilted her head elegantly: "Classmate Pei, is your injury healed?"

"Ah, it's nothing serious." Pei Ye was startled for a moment, "I'm thinking about Mr. Lao Changsun."

"That's good." Changsun Jue couldn't help but glance at his inconvenient right arm, but didn't ask any more questions.

Li Mingqiu finally walked in from the door, stood on the stage and slowly opened the book.

The atmosphere in the school finally became normal. Li Mingqiu continued to talk about "Spring and Autumn" as usual. Pei Ye could not help but frown again, but today there was no Fang Jidao for him to ask. Pei Ye hesitated, then turned his head and handed over the book, and whispered: " Classmate Zhangsun, excuse me. I didn’t find what you just said in the book.”

Changsun Jue was startled for a moment: "Is it true that 'Master's words about nature and the way of heaven cannot be heard but only heard'?"

"Yes, yes."

"This sentence was quoted by Mr. Zheng, and it is a sentence in The Analects of Confucius." Changsun Jue explained in a serious voice in a low voice, "It comes from the chapter "Gongye Chang", 'Zigong said: Master's articles can be read and heard. Master's articles can be read and heard. Talking about nature and the way of heaven cannot be heard. "The teacher just talked about the theory of nature and the way of heaven. However, thousands of years ago, the sage did not explain it, so he quoted this sentence."

Pei Ye nodded blankly.

However, the great scholar on the stage today seemed to be a little distracted. He just sighed, put his hand on the book, and remained silent.

After a long time, he raised his head and looked at the students in the hall: "If I don't talk about it today, I would like to ask you to talk about your views on sex and the way of heaven. How about that?"

There was a slight commotion in the hall, and Pei Ye subconsciously looked at Changsun Jue. The girl whispered: "This is a very deep and big question, from definition to debate. Generally speaking, 'sex' refers to The essence that human beings are born with; 'Dao of Heaven' refers to the order and law of the movement of heaven and earth, a Confucian theory."

But I heard Li Mingqiu shout: "Yu Xian."

Lin Yuxian stood up, hesitated for a moment, frowned and said: "Life is far away, the way of heaven is dim, 'Master's words cannot be heard by those who can't be heard', because Master does not talk about this. Learn Confucianism and govern the world, know the common people, rulers and ministers, and cultivate benevolence and righteousness." It’s just etiquette and wisdom, it doesn’t talk about nature and the way of heaven.”

Li Mingqiu nodded, without comment, and looked around and said: "From now on, those who want to comment on this, please raise your hands."

Pei Ye turned around, only to see that most of the rattles had been lifted up.

Li Mingqiu signaled to put it down, turned his head and looked at the girl next to Pei Ye: "Changsun, do you dare to speak?"

Pei Ye was startled.

Changsun Jue slowly stood up, remained silent for a moment, and said in a clear voice: "Master, I rarely talk about nature and the way of heaven. It's not that I don't talk at all."

There was silence in the hall.

The girl eloquently said: "The Analects only mentions 'nature' in one place, that is, in 'The Analects of Confucius Yang Huo', Confucius said: 'Xing is close, but habits are far apart'."

"There are two places where the "Way of Heaven" is mentioned. One is from "The Analects of Confucius: Weizheng" in which Confucius said: "When I was fifteen, I was determined to learn; If you are obedient, you will follow your heart's desires when you are seventy, and do not go beyond the rules.'

"The second is that in "The Analects of Confucius: Ji Shi", Confucius said: 'A gentleman has three fears: fear of destiny, fear of great men, and fear of the words of sages. A villain who does not know the destiny of heaven is not afraid, and he will insult the great men and insult the words of sages.'"

Changsun Jue paused for a moment: "Strangeness, power, chaos, and gods are all found in the world; Heaven, Tao, luck, and momentum are relied upon by the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, I think it must be discussed, but students are shallow in learning and have no real knowledge. "

There was a deathly silence in the hall.

Li Mingqiu nodded: "These are sincere words, let's try to say them."

Changsun Jue said: "All the ancient sages for thousands of years have said that people are born in heaven and earth, and their 'nature' is the 'way of heaven' projected onto people. Therefore, people should follow the laws of nature. This means that heaven and man are one."

"Are you going to talk about it from now on?"

".Students can find no rebuttal."

Li Mingqiu was silent for a moment and then nodded: "Those who want to comment from now on, please raise your hands."

Many more people lifted it up.

Although there were obviously quite a few people who had not raised their hands, Li Mingqiu did not ask any more questions, but suddenly tilted his head and said: "Pei Ye, you are a practitioner, what is your interpretation?"

Pei Ye was startled and stood up slowly: "What cultivators want is to talk about the word 'Tao'. The theory of 'human beings unite with heaven'. The seven Taoist schools all adhere to this method of cultivation, and their achievements are unparalleled in the world." , the swordsman’s pursuit of movement, intention, heart, and Tao ultimately connects the heart to heaven and earth, so I think this Confucian theory is consistent.”

Li Mingqiu was silent for a moment: "So, in practice, 'Tao' is the highest pursuit of the cultivator, which is also the 'Way of Heaven'?"

"That's right -" Pei Ye nodded, but suddenly froze, and a torrent of water rushed from his back to Tianling.

No, that's not right. There's one thing it's not.

"Sword." Pei Ye said suddenly, and the whole hall fell silent.

"The way of the sword is not the way of heaven." Pei Ye raised his head and looked at the great scholar on the stage, "The sword is a human sword."

This profound and somewhat solemn class was finally over, but this was the section that Pei Ye was most devoted to, because for the first time he realized that the things discussed in these books were not just for him to read and write, but also for him to read and write. They are so closely related to his practice. They live in the same world because they follow the same rules and care about the same issues.

This class made him ponder for a long time. In the second half of the class and even the whole afternoon, he eagerly asked the girl next to him for advice. As expected of a student who also "knows all five classics", the girl's explanation skills were not inferior to Fang Jidao's. The details are still too much, and he will even take the initiative to ask him what he doesn't understand.

But when the classwork was over and Pei Ye stood up, he looked at the door of the school again and was stunned.

A dense crowd of people surrounded it, leaving only one passage for entry and exit, and the word "Pei Ye" came in repeatedly.

Pei Ye stood frozen on the spot, and Changsun Jue was also stunned holding the book. He looked at the boy next to him, then at the figure at the door, and was stunned for a moment.

But soon her eyes lit up and she whispered to Pei Ye, "Go to the back door and wait for me."

Pei Ye was startled, but he saw the girl holding the book and going out. Naturally, she was not blocked by people. The back door was diagonally opposite to the main door. It was unknown where it led. Pei Ye put on his schoolbag and came here. He saw that it was years old. It was locked from the outside and had collected a lot of dust.

He waited here, and soon there was a soft gasp from behind the door, and then there was the sound of unlocking. Changsun Jue opened the door with a smile from the outside, his eyes bright and his cheeks slightly red.

Pei Ye quickly got out of here and said with a smile: "Lao Changsun, classmate, ran in such a hurry."

Changsun Jue locked the lock again and said seriously: "If you are too late and there is no one in the school, they will see you at a glance."

Pei Ye looked around and found out that it was the same road that Xu Chuo took him to the library. It must have been a resting place for the gentlemen who were giving lectures. The girl had the key because she was trusted and close to him.

Naturally, it was inconvenient to stay for a long time at this time, so the two of them walked around in a circle and headed outside the Imperial Academy. It was already dusk, the lights were on, and the stars were hanging in the dim sky. Pei Ye looked at the girl next to him with gratitude: "My eldest grandson, classmate "Thank you for your explanation today."

At the end of the day, he benefited a lot, and the girl's voice seemed a little tired, but she was never impatient. Pei Ye believed that Fang Jidao had the patience, but he didn't have the time.

Changsun Jue shook his head: "No, if classmate Fang is not here next time, classmate Pei can ask me to explain."

Pei Ye was a little apologetic: "My knowledge is too poor and I know almost nothing. You are a first-rate scholar. I'm afraid it will hinder your ability to attend lectures."

Changsun Jue shook his head, looked at him seriously and said, "Classmate Pei, you are also a brave and resourceful swordsman in the world."

"."

Changsun Jue lowered his head and paused, then raised his bright eyes to look at him: "Classmate Pei, can you tell me how you practice swordsmanship every day in the Sword Xiu Academy?"

So Qi Zhaohua leaned in front of the carriage and waited for a long time, and finally saw the familiar figure walking and talking and laughing with a beautiful and elegant strange girl. The girl was dressed in elegant and elegant clothes, and she looked like a wealthy family. Mr. Shi looked at him seriously.

The two of them nodded to each other and separated when they reached the door. Pei Ye came over, Qi Zhaohua turned his head and looked at the girl's back, then looked away: "Who is this again?"

"Chang Sun Jue, a classmate who went to school with me." Pei Ye smiled, "He is a very nice person and he taught me a lot of scriptures and meanings."

But he saw the woman looking at him silently, her eyes quite calm.

".What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Qi Zhaohua sighed lightly, "I just felt that when I was in Bowang, I gave advice on Pei Shaoxia's love affairs. Looking at it now, I was more or less humiliating myself."
