Thinking of the plan in his heart, Shen Buhao's expression softened. In his eyes, Confucian scholars like Jiang Wenxin were already dead people. Shen Buhao had always been relatively tolerant towards dying people. He patiently tried to persuade him with sincerity, Jiang Wenxin finally listened.
Su Wen initially thought that the scene of a group of Confucian scholars sitting down and listening to Shen Buhao's distorted interpretation of the saint's words and deeds, and then having to memorize them and use them to teach Crayfish, seemed a bit crazy.
But to his surprise, Jiang Wenxin and others were more cooperative than he imagined. Shen Buhao quickly convinced these people and made rapid progress in learning "Yu", drawing inferences from one example.
Shen Buhao just started, and Jiang Wenxin and others were able to invent new ideas, far-fetched ideas, and forcibly put together a set of theories. Compared with Long Aotian's wild approach, the explanation was more reasonable.
"Sure enough... when a scholar becomes evil, it is much more terrifying than an illiterate person."
Seeing this scene, Su Wen sighed repeatedly.
But when Su Wen told Shen Buhao his feelings, Shen Buhao's expression became very subtle.
If others don't know, doesn't he still know that all this happened under Su Wen's careful calculation? If the Confucian scholars don't act according to his ideas, it will be impossible to expect to be a teacher for crayfish. almost.
How could Shen Buhao dare to say these words?
He had to nod his head repeatedly, indicating that what Su Wen said was correct.
After the preparation of the secret medicine was completed, Su Wen seemed to have forgotten about his promotion to the second level of the Legalist Sequence, and did not mention the retreat. He went to teach crayfish an hour-long class on time every day. He still taught the rhythm of poetry, and some of the crayfish were quite good. He was gifted and wrote the poem "The lobster has eight legs and the sea is all water", which moved Long Aotian to tears, thinking that the tribe was about to prosper.
In his free time, Su Wen was not in a hurry to leave the altar, but took the initiative to chat with Long Aotian. They talked about Confucian elegance. He always admired Confucianism, but Long Ao knew nothing about Confucian elegance. God, I found a treasure.
There are almost countless elegant interests of Confucian scholars. Just the qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting, which are the skills of literati to cultivate their sentiments, can be discussed for a long time.
Naturally, there is no shortage of various materials in the space of the Earthly Branches. Su Wen gave Long Aotian pens, inks, paper and inkstones, systematically letting Long Aotian know what it takes to be a "scholar".
It only took Su Wen less than a day to bring Long Aotian into an unprecedented spiritual world.
Putting on the Confucian shirt presented by Su Wen - the student uniform of Qingshan Academy, and wearing a jade pendant around his waist, he went to the bottom of the sea to dig for cold jade and taught himself seal cutting. After all, Su Wen once said, a Confucian scholar can only get one or two yuan if he doesn't have one. You are embarrassed to call yourself a literati when you hand out a seal. You must be proficient in everything, such as playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. If you can make your own rice paper, polish stone inkstones, bake ink blocks, and make your own brushes, you will be the most elegant among Confucian scholars. people.
Su Wen's words were unintentional, but the listeners were intentional. They conscientiously demanded themselves according to the "standards" of Confucian scholars. Groups of lobster people received orders and tried to obtain various materials for making pens, inks, paper and inkstones for the high priest.
Such an order seems insignificant, but the main target of the lobster people's attack is Guixu. It is easier to obtain pens, inks, paper and inkstones. After all, most extraordinary people are scholars, and they will carry them with them, but the raw materials... no one has any brains. If you have a problem, you will bring this kind of thing with you.
But Long Aotian's status is extremely high, even the white lobster must respect its will, and no matter how excessive the request is, it must be satisfied.
In order to obtain materials, the lobster people had to release a group of captured extraordinary beings and used them to make a deal with the human race in exchange for a batch of materials for making pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
The lobster man even made a request. If the extraordinary person can give away a few craftsmen or some secret manufacturing recipes when he delivers the materials, a few more people can be let go in the next round of transactions.
But the human race proposed that unless they agreed to let go of a few robbed extraordinary beings, there would only be one transaction between the two, and there would be no possibility of mutual trade in the future.
Faced with the conditions given by the Council of Hundreds of Schools, the White Lobster Man screamed angrily, but in order to satisfy the high priest's small wish, he finally let go of several extraordinary people on the list.
However, as Long Aotian's demands increased and the number of transactions with the human race increased, it was inevitable that there would be some complaints among the senior officials of the Lobster People.
Many times, when they finally catch high-sequence extraordinary beings, they could have killed and stripped them of their spirituality to replenish their bloodline power, but because Long Aotian thought it could be exchanged, the final portion could be used to advance to the level of bloodline power.
The spirit of strength eventually turned into a pile of wood, rags and some animal skins.
Of course, there are also some secret recipes for making paper, teaching materials on calligraphy for engraving seal characters, etc. These are secret techniques that are not passed down by famous and upright masters. They have high artistic content and even music scores composed by Su Muzhe himself.
But just for a piece of music, seven captured Sequence 5 Transcendents were exchanged from the Lobster Man, and a promise was obtained from the Lobster Man that once the human race laid down their weapons and surrendered, they would not be killed or tortured, and they would be exchanged for it through trade.
This move was naturally opposed by most lobster people, but Long Aotian believed that this condition was not excessive.
The lobster people just want to conquer Guixu, which is bordered by the human territory, has the ability, and has the opportunity to conquer the human world. By getting the blessing of human civilization, it can increase the evolutionary speed of the group. And killing may allow the people to gain more power.
But opening up wisdom will not help, and may even make them more barbaric.
This goes against the plan the Lobsterman had planned from the beginning.
If you can use some captives in exchange for the crystallization of human wisdom, and at the same time alleviate the hostility between the two sides, and lay a foundation for future conquests, why not?
Su Wen was full of praise for Long Aotian's wisdom and believed that he was the smartest being in the history of the entire lobster tribe. In the future, he would not only have an immortal name among the lobster tribe, but also make a significant contribution to human civilization. After all,
The sage said that there is no distinction between religion and distinction. Confucian scholars from other races are also Confucian scholars. In the future, Long Aotian may be able to enjoy the holy name and enjoy incense in the Confucian temple.
This flattery made Long Aotian's bones soft. Long Aotian, whose "Dragon" Yan Dayue looked at him, smiled happily for a moment. At the same time, he took out a seal made of deep sea ice from his arms without hesitation and stuffed it into Su Wen's hand.
in hand.
"Brother Su Xian, please don't be polite. This is a little thought from my brother. You must accept it..."
Long Aotian's face was a little twisted.
The seal was engraved with the eight characters "Lobster Man", half of which Su Wen did not recognize, he only knew it was the secret text of Lobster Man, and the other two characters were extremely ancient bird seals, which meant "Seal of Proud Heaven".
It was obviously a private seal carved by Long Aotian himself.
It's just that the writing style is a bit clumsy, and it's still far behind Su Wen, let alone the seal-cutting masters.
but……
The material of this seal is not simple in itself, but is made of deep sea ice. Deep sea ice is not an ice cube, but a kind of strange jade, which is completely transparent and almost indestructible. It can only exist at the sub-sage level.
Only then can we leave traces on it.
And this is also one of the secret medicine materials used by most decent extraordinary people when they enter the seventh stage of the sequence. Deep sea ice is not a necessary material. If other materials are available, its existence is not needed.
But if any kind of material is lacking, it can be replaced by deep sea ice. This is its value.
As for the value of the seal, the material is secondary.
As the first seal carved by Long Aotian, it contains its power rules. By observing the carved handwriting and knife marks, you can figure out its secret method of power and enhance your cultivation.
Even... this seal can be used as a weapon.
Many extraordinary beings from well-known families like to use secret techniques to attach their power to seals, and then use it to deal unexpected blows to their enemies when fighting with others.
Long Aotian is naturally no exception.
Although Su Wen did not mention this kind of use, it is still a self-taught one after all, leaving a defense and a secret method of killing on the seal. Once activated, it will be a saint-level attack and defense.
Moreover, this is the first seal carved by Long Aotian with the power of extraordinary sainthood. It can also carry many abilities, which Long Aotian has not noticed yet and can only discover slowly.
It can even be said that Long Aotian may be able to carve more seal seals with exquisite brushwork in the future, but it is not easy to imagine that seal seals can carry such powerful power.
"Isn't this bad..."
Although Su Wen was moved, he still said politely.
In addition to being polite, he was also worried that Long Aotian would tamper with the seal. It was not impossible for a piece of treasure to become an instrument for Long Aotian to monitor or even control him.
"Hey, what are you being polite to me about? Take it and tell me, what do those literati eat when they talk... Fifty Sans? Hmm... It's a stone of stones... I'm just curious, dear brother.
Do you know how to prepare this Five Stone Powder?"
Long Aotian would not give Su Wen a chance to refuse.
In the end, Su Wen had no choice but to put away the seal. After thinking about it carefully, he also believed that Long Aotian was still intoxicated with his status as a scholar and elegant guest. When carving the seal, he wanted to make people think he was powerful and to lay some secrets.
The possibility is extremely low.
"When Walnut comes back, let him identify whether there is any danger..."
Su Wen thought so in his heart.
The Earthly Branches also have the ability to identify dangers, but Long Aotian's level is too high after all. Su Wen feels that the Earthly Branches may not be able to detect Long Aotian's secret skills.
"Five stones scattered..."
Hearing that Long Aotian was actually interested in the secret recipe he mentioned casually, his heart skipped a beat, and a bold idea came to him, but in the end he felt that the risk was too great.
"Wu Shi San is very harmful to literati, so don't try it lightly."
Su Wen said seriously: "Especially for those literati who have not awakened their cultural background, the harm will be even more fatal. We can just listen, but we cannot try."
"Hey, brother, my cultivation level can't be harmed by the gods. It's just a human medicine, but it won't hurt me at all. I just want to try what it feels like..."
