The Lord who use immortals as food

Chapter 555: Chasing the Moon (Part 2)

After Zhu Wen finished speaking, the throne was quiet for a while, as if he was slowly turning the pages.

Then the voice of compiling the book came to the court in a low voice: "I had read the theory of "Two Heavens" earlier, and listening to Zhu Qing's detailed explanation today, there are indeed many profound and new things that I have never learned. However, there is no evidence mentioned here, so I must not have omitted it.”

Zhu Wen bowed his head as he left the case: "If I told you three days ago, I will show you this with ice water."

In fact, this is not a secret. Although it has not spread throughout Shenjing, it has been spread among the ministers. People say that the two days will be decided by the freezing of the pond, leaving countless listeners stunned and speechless.

But now, with the Saint, there seems to be nothing wrong with this.

"Zhu Qing has been thinking about it for ten years. What is the result? Didn't he get it first?" the saint said softly.

Zhu Wen bowed again: "Who dares to say anything in the vast sky? I have been pursuing it all my life, like an ape climbing up to the moon, but in the end I can't get it. Now it's enough to invite all the ministers to see it... The principles of heaven are mysterious, and this is solid evidence. There are results, but they may not be true.”

The throne was silent for a while.

Zhu Wen left the four volumes of books on the case, lifted his lapels and walked down the jade steps step by step, and came to the front of the ministers. Then he turned back, shook his sleeves slightly, made a courtier's salute to the high place, knelt down and said: "I only have one request. If "Two Heavens" is true, I hope that Mr. Xu's name will be restored and he will be awarded the title of Duke Wen posthumously."

It was as quiet as a night in front of Hanyuan Hall.

After a moment, the throne figure nodded and said: "Yes."

Zhu Wen stood up, his face still expressionless, but his two eyebrows drooped a little in the cold wind, as if they were covered with light frost, sinking down.

His figure seemed to be a little drooped, but Li Du's face became tense and cold at this time, his eyes were staring at the ground in front of him, and the hand holding the rosary turned a little white. He glanced at Ziyi next to him, Wang Mingyuan's face turned slightly pale, and he stepped out of the queue and reported: "Your Majesty, Haotian's theory has been established. No matter what evidence is found in the past two days, it must not be overturned. It is difficult to say the word 'true'. I ask for your enlightenment."

After saying this, he knelt down.

As soon as these words came out, at least thirty people in the back row knelt down.

However, Zhu Wen didn't seem to hear it, or he didn't care at all. The philosopher turned around, and everything around him seemed to have nothing to do with him. He stepped on the cold floor and headed towards the mirror pool at the end of the palace.

The ministers stared blankly, as Zhu Wen left, the young scholar held a copy of "Two Heavens Theory" with his head lowered and walked to the front of the court column, and then climbed up the jade steps. It was then that many people suddenly discovered that the Confucian robe that represented the philosopher... was actually worn by this young man.

The single-clothed and barefooted figure walked step by step toward the medium-sized imperial pond. When he came to the edge of the pond, he raised his hand and untied his hair crown.

The wind suddenly lifted up her long gray hair, fluttering like a flag.

The weather in Shenjing got cold very quickly. In fact, the pond was supposed to freeze three days ago, so Zhu Wen asked them to wait for three days.

Regarding the matter of two days and one day, his attitude of verification is just like his attitude of studying. If you can get it directly, don't ask for it from the song. Since there is a question about whether the Heaven is one or two, the only and necessary verification is to really return it to its original state and see whether it is one or two.

This is a very simple truth.

But of course it is a difficult thing, but you must work hard and try to do it.

Zhu Wen's method of doing this is not difficult to understand. He found a small piece of heaven and earth, then mashed, ground, melted, and decomposed... This process lasted for ten years. When it was completely understood, it was thrown into the world and no longer existed. When it is similar to anything that already exists, it means that you have obtained the essence of heaven and earth.

Then just see if they are one or two.

This small world needs to be enclosed without any interference. Of course, it also needs to have living beings in it... In short, there are many requirements, big or small.

Zhu Wen got such a small world when he logged into the Tianlou ten years ago.

It's his own body.

He really didn't know if it was one or two, and the only person in the world who would never know the final result was himself.

He had no expectations for that. What he was pursuing was not a certain result, but the result itself.

Ten years ago, his best friend who was regarded as his brother died in a car crash. Seven years ago, his wife died of illness. Five days ago, his only student was beheaded in a political dispute... He was very used to being silent and had no intention of saying anything to others.

Zhu Wen coughed twice. There was no expression on his unpredictable face. He lowered his head and looked at the lake, where his shadow was reflected, as well as a pale moon rising at night.

He let go of his body and threw himself towards the crescent moon.

On the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month in the Xinsi year of Suolin, Zhu Wen, the philosopher of Tianliyuan, threw himself into the mirror pool with the tenth level of the Tianlou. His body turned into misty water, and there was no trace of him anymore. At this time, six hundred people in Shenjing, including the East Pond and the West Pond, Thirty-one ponds froze simultaneously.

In Tianliyuan, Pei Ye looked at the small pond and slowly stood up from under the eaves.

The quiet round pond in front of him seemed to be slightly disturbed by a twig, and then the crystal ice covered the water in an instant. Pei Ye was caught off guard by this scene, but his heart was already high.

And after just a few breaths, the result that stunned him appeared before his eyes. The round pond was as quiet as a small mirror, solidifying into a pattern. It was really half ice and half water... This was a Tai Chi picture.

After a few breaths of daze, Pei Ye suddenly felt joyful. He breathed a heavy sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his cheeks. He leaned against the pillar and was stunned for a while, then walked down to the small courtyard and tentatively touched the ice cubes in the pond. However, it was ordinary ice water and could really be crushed.

Here, the feeling of closeness to heaven and earth surged before him again, and it was clearer than that night. Pei Ye still couldn't figure out why. He walked around and went back to sit under the eaves. Seeing that it was dark and the time was almost up, he went to the second floor first.

However, the second floor surprised him today, because the long table on the table was not cleaned up. The pottery jar with dried flowers was still placed on the corner of the table, and the paper roll was also spread on the table. The brush next to it was not washed.

This was really a rare scene in January. Pei Ye walked over to wash the brush, but when he lowered his head, he saw that the paper was full of several lines of writing. The handwriting was very neat, of course, it was Mr. Zhu's ink.

It turned out to be a poem.

Pei Ye looked at it in a daze, and it said:

Who pushed a bright moon up to the green willows that pierced the sky. It shines on my rattan bed, as cool as water, and flies into the jade platform. The fog is cold, the flute and the wind is light, and the jade lock is unchecked. The idle clouds are gone, and the sea light and the sky shadow meet.

Who believes that there is a medicine for immortality? Su'e is newly refined, flying frost and condensing snow. Breaking corals is better than seeing the luxuriant and endless fairy laurels. Washing away worldly desires, covered with dew, cold and soaking hair. Then she will grow flying feathers, and in the world tomorrow, remember not to tell anyone.

A night wind blew, and the cold and crisp dried flowers in the pottery jar were broken into pieces and drifted into the night sky with the wind.

Pei Ye subconsciously tried to fish it out but failed, so he had to put the remaining jar back, spread out the Book of Rites, and sat in front of his desk waiting with his chin in his hand.

However, Zhu Wen did not come until two quarters after the hour of Xu. Pei Ye was stunned for a while, and then he remembered that he had just made up for the four missed hours last night, and Mr. Zhu did not ask him to have a class today.
