Chapter 1,178 Traveling around the world(1/2)
When people's hearts are broken, they need fists to correct them. Although Qi came to the south this time, his mother Nvjiao followed him. With Nvjiao's magic as a witch, she is not afraid of the robbery of those small tribes, but she is still very grateful.
, the master who came out halfway to fight against injustice.
What surprised Qi was that his father stared at the master until he shouted "Da Yi" in uncertainty.
"Who are you? Are you my friend? It's great to have friends from far away!"
The image of Dayi was completely different from that of the past, and of course the same was true for Wen Ming. Now we really didn't know each other when we met, but we just lamented the rapid changes of the years, the mountains and the sea have become old, and the cucumbers have become sour.
"I am Wen Ming."
"What, why have you become so powerful? This big beard, these big arms, these broken straw sandals, this big shovel..."
Dayi was surprised because he had not seen Wen Ming for a long time. Probably after the flood control during the Sanmenxia period, Dayi moved to Huai River to live, and they almost never saw each other again.
In his impression, even Wen Ming, who followed the old man Tai Ti to control floods, was just a dark and strong young man. But now Wen Ming is tall and thick, wearing a straw hat, a big beard, and dark skin.
Blue veins, palms covered with calluses, tall and strong...
There is nothing wrong with this look, even if it is Zhang Fei or Lu Zhishen who controls floods.
Ke Wenming also complained about Dayi's attire.
"You said that my appearance is different from the past, but I think you are also very different from the past!"
In Wen Ming's eyes, Dayi looked younger than in the past. There is no doubt that he was also stronger. However, he was so strong, but he was wearing a long robe that didn't fit him at all.
The robe burst.
There is still a turban on his head, which looks like he is carrying a small bag on his head. His beard is also groomed differently than in the past. He pays attention to appearance. In fact, it looks like Dayi is indeed a bit handsome.
How can an old man in his seventies still have such an appearance and body?
"I am preaching the principles of benevolence and righteousness now. After so many years, I have encountered many people and things. I have found that it is not okay to block other people's desires blindly. Desires must have a place to vent, so I thought of
It’s a good idea.”
"When someone fulfills his desire, I will jump out to persuade him and give him a punch with my sincerity, so that he can correct his evil ways. I have used this method to promote benevolence and righteousness many times, and have taken in
I have many disciples who are willing to follow me, so I decided to imitate the ancient Confucius and travel around the world..."
Dayi told Wen Ming that he had done a lot of things over the years and felt very fulfilled. He promoted benevolence, righteousness and morality every day. Once a person finds his goal, he will not be inactive...
"The rest of my life is extremely long. At least after eating the Immortal Grass, it is unknown how long I can live. But I think that there will probably be no problem for thousands of years."
"So, once a person cannot find a goal for the rest of his life in a long life, his temper and personality will undergo huge changes. Therefore, in order to prevent myself from going an uncontrollable wrong path in my future life, I chose to promote benevolence and righteousness.
Morality, I am determined to change this world into a world of great harmony."
After all, according to geography experts such as Azai, Shuhai, and Mr. Hanman, there is land to the west of the west, frozen soil to the north of the north, and land to the south of the south. The world is huge...
Wen Ming listened to these words blankly.
For a moment, he didn't know what expression to use in response to Dayi's preaching.
but.....
"Did you eat the immortal grass? Where did the immortal grass come from?"
"Azai gave it to me. It is said that it was purchased from Kunlun Heavenly Palace."
Wen Ming was also surprised. The Immortal Grass has long been extinct. The last people to eat the Immortal Grass were the Ten Witches of Lingshan. Unexpectedly, he could find a manufacturer for Azai and ship the original package directly...
Of course, eating Immortal Grass only increases your lifespan and keeps your body functions healthy, but it does not mean that you will not be beaten to death. But come to think of it, there is no one who can kill Dayi... right?
"Wen Ming, are you going to Hongzhou?"
Dayi asked Wen Ming why he came here, and Wen Ming said he was here to send his children to primary school in Hongzhou.
"Wait a minute, I heard that the schools in Hongzhou are filled with wise people, and the teachers in the elementary schools are all outstanding figures in a certain field. But don't say that you are going back to Hongzhou this time...
..”
"Yes, I want to give it a try and see if I can become a Chinese teacher."
Wen Ming was immediately confused.
It’s impossible to get hired!
"finally, I understand....."
Dayi: "Huh? What do you understand?"
Wen Ming's smile was a little stiff, and his beard trembled wildly: "I mean, why did Confucius's ideas of benevolence and righteousness never be applied by ancient monarchs? I was confused before, but now I hear you say you want to apply for a Chinese teacher, I
I understood it all at once.”
With your level of force, if someone else dared to occupy the class, you would have punched the teacher to death at the door, with blood splattering three feet away... You also said that the other teacher was unethical and came over to infringe on other people's classroom use.
right.....
Others are just talking about Tao, but when you talk about Tao, you punch it twice and fall down, which proves that your argument is correct.
Which ancient country dared to use Confucius? If not, all the other sages would drag their families with them and run away. Naturally, no monarch would want to see Confucius!
Wen Ming asked Dayi if he wanted to go together. Dayi said that he wanted to stay to let the robbers participating in the zero-yuan shopping event realize their mistakes, so Wen Ming and the others left first.
From the beginning to the end, Boyi and others did not dare to say a word.
Not to mention Qi, his face was already pale at this time.
The carriage continued to drive, and soon, everyone arrived at the edge of the river.
"Huh? Why is this road still extending forward and getting higher and higher?"
"You should start taking boats here!"
Wen Ming felt strange. When we arrived near this place, we should be almost at the boat ride. How could there be an extended avenue?
Where will this road extend?
So, the carriage continued to drive higher until it reached the highest point... This time, everyone was stunned. The most shocking one was Wen Ming.
"What is this?"
A thoroughfare stretches across both sides of the river, with busy traffic and unobstructed pedestrians. The roaring torrent seems to have disappeared, leaving only the smooth road to the sky!
The little Kai sat on the carriage, leaning his head and looking at the flat road around him.
How come there is such a huge road on the river?
The river was suppressed by this huge road, and the river rushing from afar became more gentle in this section. The water flowed through the huge stone piers, like tamed cattle and sheep.
The memory of enlightenment began with the great flood.
My father dredged the three great swamps in the Dongyi area, so that the waters of Juye, Mengzhu, and Leixia would no longer be full, and the hundreds of rivers would have their own order.
In Qi's memory, he still remembers the man wearing white linen clothes, sitting under the red sun, suddenly flying down from the sky. That man is said to be his father's teacher, but for him, that man, let himself feel in his heart,
I feel a huge fear that smiles and eats people without spitting out their bones.
But, was this avenue built by that terrifying uncle?
My mother often said that he was a saint in the world. Although his words were always unreliable, in terms of doing practical things, there was no one more practical and reliable than him.
Many useful wonders were built by his abbot. The people of Zhuxia would not make useless things, but any huge buildings that needed to be built had their place where they could be put to use.
Big means strong, big means hard, big means power.
On the carriage, Boyi was also horrified:
"I never thought that one day I would be able to walk on the river!"
"The architecture in Hongzhou has reached this level, which is no longer surprising, but terrifying!"
In fact, it was not just the carriage that Wen Ming and the others were riding in, but almost all the carriages and ox-carts from north to south had similar exclamations. They were driving along the bridge, but the horses were a little scared.
Even if there are guardrails, being so far away from the river and the roaring water of the river gives people an unreal and illusive feeling.
"This is the bridge. In the past, the south of the river and the north of the river were connected with each other by war boats... It is said that Xu Ao's country overestimated its own capabilities and when attacking Hongzhou, they connected the war boats together to form a
The floating bridge was completely burned by fire."
Wen Ming told others about some things that happened to Hongzhou in the past. The Xu Ao tribe used war boats to cross the river and build beams as bridges. This tactic was very famous, although it failed...
But now, the real bridge appears.
Wen Ming firmly believed that this was the bridge that Yu Zai had mentioned before, but he did not expect it to be so huge.
It turns out that the "bridge" can actually span such a long distance!
"There are bridges on the Luoshui River and the Weishui River, but there is no bridge like this, which is so shocking."
"At the earliest time, Brother Zai said that he wanted to build a huge bridge across the river, but due to the hydrological environment on both sides at that time, there was no way to realize it. But fortunately, after the river was dredged, a river water conservancy network appeared.
Now that the flood season has passed, traveling by ship can be considered very convenient and very fast."
"But I haven't seen the bridge over the river, but I didn't expect that the bridge over the river has already been built!"
Yu Zai said that in this era, the water flow of the Yellow River was several times more ferocious than that of the Yangtze River. However, with the completion of the Yellow River management work, the water flow of the river has gradually lost its ferocious momentum in the past.
In the following eras, the river will experience several huge earthquakes and dry up, and even pseudo-drainage... That will be at least hundreds of years later.
"The emergence of the bridge over the river has connected the north and the south. There is no longer any obstacle between commerce and various strongholds, and direct exchanges can be made. This has brought huge benefits to Hongzhou and various strongholds..."
To be continued...
