The first thousand and eleven chapters speculate on the intention of the Confucian saints
Sacrifice hundreds of millions of your kindred?
This mosquito Taoist is a ruthless person, no, he is a ruthless monster.
As far as the human race is concerned, this mosquito man seems to have done a good thing.
Otherwise, if these billions of mosquitoes were not sacrificed, how many people would suffer?
Lin Ze was thinking wildly.
Meng Ke continued to say on the side: "Since returning to the same path is useful for the realm of heaven and man, with the ability of my teacher the Confucian sage, it may not be impossible to improve it and use it for my own use."
Lin Ze followed up: "So the sage would suspect that the death of sage Yan Hui was related to the Confucian sage?"
Meng Ke took a deep look at Lin Ze and did not answer directly. Instead, he said indirectly: "As we all know, Confucianism is of the same strain, and Haoran's righteousness is everlasting."
"I really can't think of anyone in the Confucian community who can use my junior disciple Yan Hui as a cauldron, except my master Confucian sage, who has this ability."
Lin Ze pondered for a moment, then said to Meng Ke with a solemn expression: "I would like to ask the sage a few questions."
Meng Ke looked calm and replied: "May I ask, King Qin?"
Lin Ze: "Regardless of whether the Confucian sage was the murderer of Yan Hui's sage, even if the Confucian sage was, why was the sage so sure that the Confucian sage wanted to join his fellow disciples instead of deliberately seeking revenge?"
"Just imagine, the Confucian sages went through hardships and prepared to make a comeback. However, when they saw several sages breaking away from Confucianism and establishing their own schools, they became angry and killed them. It seems reasonable."
"If this is the case, there seems to be no need to forcibly accuse the Confucian saint of being so unscrupulous."
Meng Ke said without changing his expression: "The words of the King of Qin can be said to hit the nail on the head, and I am telling the truth. Thousands of years ago, by chance, my two junior brothers, Yan Hui and Xun Kuang, learned that my master, the Confucian sage, had secretly moved this matter.
read."
"For thousands of years, in order to avoid this disaster, my two junior brothers, I and I, have read countless classical books, practiced many unusual secret techniques, and conspired countless times in private."
"I thought these methods would have some effect, but the death of Junior Brother Yan Hui has poured a basin of cold water on me that's bone-chilling."
"If it weren't for this secret, when my master Confucian Sage lost his holy title, with just a few words of coercion and inducement from the King of Qin, how could my brother betray his master so easily and establish his own sect?"
"Who is willing to be a traitor who is spurned by the world? Who is willing to turn against the mentor who lives with him day and night and is regarded as his biological father? Who is willing to live a horrible life of being eaten as a delicacy at any time every day?"
"If you don't rebel, you will die. If you rebel, you may live. If the King of Qin were to face such a situation, what would you choose?"
At the end of the sentence, a somewhat ferocious look appeared on Meng Ke's face, which was originally calm.
Meng Ke had been suppressed for thousands of years, and this was the first time he confided to outsiders. His inner dissatisfaction was vented so much that he was extremely emotional and on the verge of breaking out.
Lin Ze hurriedly spoke to comfort him: "Sage, please be patient. I can understand your mood, but there is a doubtful point that makes you unhappy."
"Even if a Confucian sage wanted to return to the same religion, he would normally not announce it to the public. However, the three sages could actually learn about such a secret matter by chance. Doesn't the sage find it strange?"
Meng Ke frowned slightly and said: "What's so strange about this? The realm of heaven and man can communicate with the way of heaven. Although some things cannot be judged true or false through the way of heaven, you can get warnings from the way of heaven."
"After the three senior fellow apprentices learned about the news, they made many calculations about the secrets of heaven and the information fed back by the law of heaven revealed that a catastrophe was imminent."
"If this is false news, how can we explain what happened to my three brothers?"
Lin Ze thought thoughtfully and said: "So, the source of the sage's information is unknown and needs to be verified."
Meng Ke was slightly confused and said: "As long as the news is true, does it matter where it comes from?"
Lin Ze replied seriously: "Of course the source of the information is very important."
Meng Ke asked back: "Couldn't it be that my master, the Confucian sage, accidentally revealed it?"
Lin Ze chuckled and said: "Of course it could be that the Confucian sage accidentally leaked the news, or of course it could be that the Confucian sage deliberately released the news. The two may not seem to be much different, but the meaning behind them is completely different."
Seeing that Meng Ke still didn't understand, Lin Ze explained: "If it is the former, it means that the Confucian sages are not secretive. As long as the sages are careful, they may not be able to escape."
"If it's the latter, it's obvious that the Confucian sage has decided to eat the three sage brothers, or maybe the three sage brothers' hard struggle is just to make the "taste" of this delicacy better in the eyes of the Confucian sage."
After hearing this, Meng Ke felt cold all over and said with difficulty: "The speculation of King Qin is probably the true thought of my master the Confucian Sage. The effect of returning to the same path is related to the strength of the person being sacrificed or devoured. The stronger the strength."
, the deeper the understanding of the great truth, the greater the harvest.”
"Think about it. There are so many coincidences in this world. Some roads were deliberately built by certain people. But at the beginning, how you walked and how far you could go were all clearly planned by others."
Lin Ze couldn't help but be a little stunned when he heard Meng Ke's touching words. The Confucian sage could calculate everything from beginning to end, but what about the Taoist sage who was better than the Confucian sage?
From the day he accepted himself as a disciple, Tao Sage calculated how deep he was. I am afraid that no one except Tao Sage can know.
After being depressed for a long time, Meng Ke's expression suddenly shook, and he returned to normal in a blink of an eye. He bowed to Lin Ze and said, "The King of Qin was able to deduce such important information based on clues. I seem to see hope of escaping this disaster, so why not
Please spare no effort to save me, King Qin."
Lin Ze shook his head: "Even if you know some things, there may not be a solution. The cultivation of Confucian saints is unfathomable. Please forgive me for my inability to solve it."
Meng Ke's bright eyes dimmed instantly.
Lin Ze suddenly changed the topic and said: "My inability to do anything does not mean that the Taoist palace is helpless. The sages can stay in Chang'an first. Chang'an is guarded by my senior brother. The Confucian sages who have lost their holy status will probably not fall into the trap."
"Although this method treats the symptoms but not the root cause, if the sage is willing, he can continue to treat the symptoms."
Meng Ke sighed slightly and said: "Then I will trouble King Qin and Zhuang Sheng."
Lin Ze said with a smile: "Sage, you don't have to be polite. Come, take Sage Meng Ke to choose a courtyard in Qiming Palace to settle down. The standard of entertainment will be the same as that of a prince."
After Lin Ze finished speaking, four servants walked in from the outside, bowed and said: "I obey the order."
Lin Ze ignored the chamberlain, but said to Meng Ke with a smile: "The days are long, and sages are welcome to come and discuss the avenue at any time."
Meng Ke looked at the chamberlain standing aside with respectful expressions and Lin Ze sitting in front of him, stood up and bowed: "I'll take my leave."
Then Meng Ke left the side hall under the guidance of the chamberlain.
As soon as Meng Ke left, Zhuang Zhou immediately sealed the entire hall, making it difficult for any news to escape.
After all this was done, Zhuang Zhou asked: "Junior brother, do you think what Meng Ke said is true or false?"
