When Zhou Jun was watching TV and reading novels in his previous life, a question would pop up in his mind from time to time.
The protagonist who travels back in time to ancient times can casually utter famous sayings throughout the ages without any prior knowledge, can invent things that transcend his time, and can also understand astronomy and geography.
Could it be that the ancient people who interacted with him were so stupid that no one suspected that this guy was not a normal person, but came from the future?
Now, Zhou Jun finally understood.
The ancients were actually not stupid at all.
On the contrary, this group of people did not have television and the Internet to keep them company. They had nothing to do on weekdays except to ponder human nature and history. In terms of thoughtful thinking, they were not much inferior to later generations.
The Kong You in front of him is a living example, but he does not know the concept of "time travel", but he regards Zhou Jun's abnormal behavior as the work of ghosts and gods.
After thinking about this, Zhou Jun looked at Huayue and made a calm gesture.
Then, he asked Kong You: "Bo Hong, why did you seek me out to play chess outside Yu An's house earlier?"
Kong You cupped his hands and said, "I used the excuse of playing chess to try out Erlang's skills."
"However, I discovered that although Erlang has acquired supernatural powers, he does not have a magical technique that can penetrate the heavens and the earth. He just knows more and understands it more thoroughly than ordinary people."
Zhou Jun: "Because I played chess with you repeatedly and failed, but in the end I defeated you with a chess game I had never seen before?"
Kong You: "Yes."
Zhou Jun pondered for a moment and then asked: "When did you have this doubt?"
Kong You picked up the Romance of the West Chamber on the table and said, "A certain fellow student gave me this book as a gift. During the conversation, I accidentally heard that the plot and scenes of this book were written by a slave Yalang."
"Out of curiosity, I asked a few more questions."
"A fellow disciple said that he and Erlang drank together and made a bet on the day when my master entered the capital. Unexpectedly, Erlang took the initiative to accept the defeat."
"A certain person became suspicious, so he began to collect documents and documents on weekdays. After paying more attention, he found many clues."
"Finally, my master's obituary came from Yuezhou. I am also certain that Erlang must not be a mortal. He may be a nobleman who received the help of gods and ghosts, or he may even be the reincarnation of a true immortal."
After hearing these words, Zhou Jun sighed with emotion. Kong You was nicknamed Kong Chi. From this point of view, not only was he not crazy at all, but he looked more like a fortune teller.
Hua Yue, who was standing by, came over again holding a sword.
Zhou Jun saw her expression was unkind and wanted to speak.
Huayue first pulled Zhou Jun to a corner, lowered his voice, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "In Dashi, there are two categories of people who perform holy miracles."
"One type of people just say that they have encountered signs of God in dreams or on the road, and were inspired by them to perform holy miracles; another type of people say that they are God's messengers who have come to the world, and all living beings, including kings,
Everyone should surrender to him."
"For the first type of person, the caliph will invite him to the palace and listen to his experience. If he is trustworthy, he will prepare jewelry and delicious food as gifts to him."
"For the second type of person, the Caliph will prepare a mouthful of boiling water and tell that person in front of everyone: If you are really an angel, then fire and water will avoid you. If you are not, your lies will be paid for.
The price of life.”
"In the end, the second group of people, without exception, will die tragically in the boiling water."
After Zhou Jun heard this, he immediately understood the meaning of Hua Yue's words.
Zhou Jun looked at Kong You again, and saw that the latter calmly cleared the desk, took three more papers from his bag, and motioned to the former to read them.
Zhou Jun took a look and found that the first copy was actually Kong You's commentary.
The article says that Kong You claimed to be suffering from ailments, suffered from night sickness and nightmares, and often made mistakes when doing errands, so he begged to resign his post as a secretary and regent and return to his first robe.
After Zhou Jun finished reading, he frowned and asked Kong You: "Why did you resign as the Secretary of the Ministry of War's Staff Department?"
Kong You said nothing and just pointed to the second document.
Zhou Jun looked over and saw that the second note came from Sinong Temple. It said that he agreed with the official slave Kong You to leave his home.
Kong You picked up the third piece of paper and placed it in front of Zhou Jun.
When the latter saw it, he was shocked.
This third note is actually a slave contract.
The slave is Kong You, but the master is Zhou Jun.
Zhou Jun looked shocked, looked at Kong You and asked, "What does this mean?"
Kong You said in a deep voice: "Good birds choose trees to roost in."
Zhou Jun kept thinking in his mind, wondering why the other party did what he did.
Kong You also said: ""Tang Lu Shu Yi: Law of Fighting Litigation" says that in various parts of the song, slaves and maids sue their masters, and those who are not treason, rebellion, or rebels will be hanged."
"I voluntarily serve Erlang as his master. For all matters, the master's family should prevail."
"From now on, Erlang no longer has to worry about someone speaking nonsense outside."
Zhou Jun stared into Kong You's eyes and said softly: "Bo Hong is originally a talented man. Chang'an is so big that he could defect to him, but he pretends to be a fool. Why is this?"
Kong You cupped his hands and said, "Although Chang'an is big, it looks like a bird cage."
"The world's intrigues and intrigues are all vying for a bite of food in the cage. It's sad and ridiculous."
"I would rather die of old age and waste my life by taking refuge in such vulgarities."
Seeing that Kong You didn't look fake, Zhou Jun asked again: "I am just a slave tooth man. He may know more than ordinary people, but he has no power. How is it different from the vulgar things you said?"
?”
"Bohong voted for me, how could he know that he would have hope in the future?"
Kong You said with a smile: "You have a destiny. Since Erlang has acquired supernatural powers, he must have a great responsibility, so why should he belittle himself?"
When Zhou Jun heard this, he suddenly remembered the goal in his heart - to prevent the Anshi Rebellion and restore a bright future to the prosperous Tang Dynasty. He couldn't help but froze on the spot.
After thinking for a while, Zhou Jun said to Kong You: "Three months ago, a certain person met a person in a dream."
"The other party said that a certain person had a favor with him in his previous life, and he will repay it in this life."
"He told some stories and poems that I had never heard before, and he touched my forehead with his finger, which helped me understand my heart."
Kong You listened and just nodded.
Zhou Jun added: "Bohong said that someone is a noble person helped by gods and ghosts, which is barely close. If he said that someone is a true immortal who has turned around, it would be an exaggeration. In the final analysis, someone is just a meritorious person who has cultivated in his previous life and has received blessings in this life.
"
Kong You glanced at Zhou Jun and asked, "Did that Taoist say about my master's congratulations to the supervisor?"
Zhou Jun was stunned, nodded and said: "That's natural."
Kong You touched his chin, thought for a while, and nodded as if he agreed with Zhou Jun's statement.
Zhou Jun breathed a sigh of relief.
This Kong You didn't even do any writing or making history, so he came all the way to join him and take him as a slave... It seemed like there was nothing wrong with him.
Firstly, this person knows a lot, and if you let him go out and talk nonsense, it will easily cause trouble; secondly, this person is very thoughtful, and if there is anything in the future, there will be someone to discuss it with.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jun picked up the slave deed and asked Kong You: "I ask you again, do you regret recommending yourself to me?"
Kong You smiled and said with determination, "No regrets."
Zhou Jun: "Okay, you go and find the young man named Qu just now, just say it's my words and ask him to find a place for you to stay first."
Kong You saluted Zhou Jun and exited the door.
Seeing Kong You walking away, Zhou Jun turned his head to Hua Yue and said in a deep voice: "Come into the wing, I have something to ask you."
Huayue was startled, put away her dagger, gritted her teeth and entered the wing.
Zhou Jun closed the door and asked Huayue: "About your life experience, what have you heard from me?"
Huayue lowered her head and whispered: "It's nothing."
Zhou Jun thought for a while and asked: "Did I say something when I was drunk that time?"
Hua Yue glanced at Zhou Jun, finally nodded and said: "I said some words about my past life and this life, but I can't remember the details."
Zhou Jun let out a long sigh, sat on the couch, and said, "You didn't go back to Dashi before, but chose to stay. Is this also related to this matter?"
Hua Yue carefully sat next to Zhou Jun, hesitated for a while, and finally decided to tell her frankly: "On my seventh birthday, the astrologer in the palace told me something."
"He said that one day in the future, I will meet someone."
"Every move this person makes will determine my future; by following him, I may be able to see the reality of this world."
