Chapter 133 Just a few words, an epiphany!
The little girl is only twelve years old this year, her temper comes quickly and goes away even faster.
After seeing with her own eyes that Lieyang Tianju, who was half-dead by Cang Huohuo, recovered in the blink of an eye in Gu Dan's hands, and even became more charming, the shock on her little face could not be concealed at all, and her little mouth could not close.
A pair of bright eyes sparkled with star-like light, full of admiration! Uncle Gu is really amazing! The next moment, Xiaoying rushed into Gu Dan's arms without any hesitation, hugged Gu Dan's waist tightly with her two little hands, and said coquettishly: "Uncle Gu, I want to learn this! Can you teach me?!"
The sunflowers that she had worked so hard to grow for two years before finally blooming, now blossomed in the blink of an eye in Uncle Gu's hands!
If she could learn this, wouldn't it be easy to grow any exotic flowers and plants? There is nothing better than this! Xiaoying's delicate and pretty face rubbed against Gu Dan's arms, blooming a bright and dazzling smile, with an excited and bright tone, as if she would never let go unless you agree.
First cry, then make a fuss and then act like a spoiled child, the little girl has already grasped the essence of it.
"ha."
Reaching out and rubbing the little girl's twin ponytails, Gu Dan said with a smile: "Do you really want to learn this?"
"Yes! I want to learn! Uncle Gu, can you teach me?"
Xiaoying nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice. In her mind, she had already begun to imagine herself walking along the way. With just a touch of her fingertips, hundreds of rare bouquets of flowers would immediately bloom beside her, colorful and fragrant. She looked like a fairy from heaven descending to the mortal world! "Hehe."
Thinking of this, Xiaoying's saliva was about to flow out of the corners of her mouth.
When she learns this skill, if others see her, will she be called a "Flower Fairy"? Who doesn't like to show off their talents in front of others?
That's really great! Seeing Xiaoying's silly smile, Gu Dan couldn't understand what the little girl was fantasizing about. He curled his index finger and gently hit her smooth forehead, saying, "This kind of thing requires a martial arts master to have a chance to master it. It's not that Uncle Gu doesn't want to teach you, you have to become a martial arts master first before you can learn it!"
Ever since the battle in front of the courtyard gate, Gu Dan no longer avoided anything in front of them.
Firstly, it has been demonstrated, and secondly, naturally, strength is increasing day by day. Not causing trouble does not mean that one has to travel at night in fine clothes.
Showing a few skills appropriately is enough to settle many things and avoid tragedies like Ding Ji's from happening again.
Times have changed and things are very different.
"ah?"
Xiaoying was stunned. Her bright smile quickly turned into depression. She pouted her lips and asked pitifully, "Do I need a martial arts master to learn this?"
"Yes, only martial arts masters have the chance to master it."
Gu Dan nodded very sincerely.
In fact, the life span of a martial arts master is about 120 years. For ordinary people, this is a very lofty number that they can only look up to.
But at the age of one hundred and twenty, there is still nearly four hundred years away from the five hundred years of internal breathing technique, a gap that is enough to make people despair.
Of course, there is no need to explain these things in such detail. There are less than ten martial arts masters in the entire country of Dayue, so you can imagine how difficult it is.
It is indeed a very useful move to directly attribute the internal energy that one has mastered to the identity of a martial arts master. Even someone who is not a master cannot find any fault with it.
"Then how am I supposed to learn!"
Xiaoying's smooth little face wrinkled.
That blockhead Xun Ke has been practicing martial arts all day long, but his muscles and bones are only now almost fully developed!
Later, she will have to start training the internal organs, and after training the internal organs, she will have to train the internal organs to perfection. After training the internal organs to perfection , she will have to face the obstacles of Qi and blood. After the obstacles of Qi and blood, she will have to face the Five Elements Interaction, which she has no idea whether it will work or not. Even if she starts to practice martial arts hard from now on, and waits until all of this is completed, and is lucky enough not to encounter the barriers of the Five Elements Interaction, and successfully becomes a master, she will already be an old girl in her fifties or sixties!! Even if an old girl in her fifties or sixties has mastered the unique skill of making all flowers bloom, can she still be respected as a "flower fairy"?
Old witch is more appropriate, right?
"Woo woo woo, what should I do!"
Xiaoying gently hit Gu Dan's waist with her forehead and said, "Uncle Gu, you killed the beautiful dream of a twelve-year-old girl!"
"Don't be depressed. You like this sunflower so much because you have worked hard to take care of it for two years! Its flowers are indeed beautiful, but without those two years of hard work, no matter how beautiful the flower is, it is just a flower."
Gently rubbing the little girl's face and forcing a smile on her face, Gu Dan continued, "The result is important, but if we just skip the process, it would be a bit boring, wouldn't it?"
Xiaoying tilted her head and thought about it.
That’s right!
There are so many flowers in the yard, and some of them have been damaged by Cang before.
But she wasn't actually that angry. After all, those flowers were everywhere to her, so it wasn't a big deal if a few were damaged.
As long as you say a few nice words to your mother, someone will deliver it the next day.
But that sun chrysanthemum was the fruit of her hard work in planting and caring for two years. She was so angry when she saw it being destroyed beyond recognition by Cang's unclean claws.
What makes you angry is not that the flowers are gone, but that all your hard work for a long time has turned into nothing, and the things you cherish have become a temporary plaything.
With her status, if she really wanted something better than the Fiery Sun Chrysanthemum, where could she not find it? Of course, those were good, but she just didn't like them.
The little girl burst into laughter, "Uncle Gu, now that you said that, I don't feel so bad anymore! But if Cang dares to pick my flowers again, I will spank his little butt into four pieces!"
Cang, who was standing under the willow tree in the yard and trying to climb up with his little hands, heard his own name, turned his head to look, and then continued to jump around under the willow tree carefree.
Gu Dan looked over and pondered for a moment.
He actually didn't want Cang to learn too many things too early, but the little guy has become more and more presumptuous recently, and he is showing signs of becoming a devil, causing destruction everywhere.
Last time, Xun Ke complained to him that Cang secretly put ink on his clothes!
It really won't work if you don't teach.
"Well, let Cang study with Xun Ke for one hour every day from now on, and increase it to two hours next year, step by step."
After a moment's thought, Gu Dan made up his mind.
Xun Ke, who was practicing martial arts: "?!"
Why is it always me who gets hurt?
Cang is still a little kid, can he learn?
You know he can't learn it! He can't even recognize words, how can I teach him?
Xun Ke, who was assigned a task, looked at Gu Dan pitifully and said weakly: "Mr. Gu, if Cang wants to learn, the most important thing to do is to find an enlightenment teacher who can teach people to read."
"Why? You don't like it?"
How could Gu Dan not understand what Xun Ke meant? He said without question, "Since you want to be like Mo Qiu, Brother Mo can lead three thousand Mo practitioners at will. You are not going to tell me that you can't even handle a three-year-old kid, right?"
"I"
Xun Ke's words of evasion died on the tip of his tongue, and he didn't know how to open his mouth.
"Think carefully about how to teach children. Don't think that this is something that any enlightenment teacher can do. The knowledge involved is very profound, and the power it can exert is far beyond your imagination.
If you can master this skill, maybe your achievements won't be worse than Brother Mo's!"
Gu Dan knew very well the principle of giving someone a sweet reward after a blow, so he started to make promises on the spot.
It cannot be said that these words are without reason, it can only be said that the reason is too great and ordinary people cannot understand it.
"Can you teach children and be on par with Master Mo?"
Xun Ke's face was full of questioning, as if to say, "Although I'm still young, don't lie to me."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Master Mo is working hard for the people of the world. How many children does he have to teach to be comparable to him? Even if he dies of exhaustion, it won't work!
"Who says it's impossible? If your method of teaching children can become a model for the world, and every family can follow your method to educate their children, and help those children become successful, wouldn't the glory and praise you can get be less than Brother Mo? Isn't it a great merit that will go down in history and benefit the country and the people!
Not everything has to be done with force. You need to have a broader vision. While you are still young, think carefully about the truth behind this, understand?"
Gu Dan spoke righteously and confidently.
Xun Ke stood there in a daze.
Mr. Gu's words actually made some sense! Nowadays, knowledge in different parts of the world is different and varied, and naturally there are both essences and dregs among them.
But most people do not actually have the ability to distinguish between the dross and the essence. Instead, they put everything into one basket, treating the dross as food and the essence as ribs.
If he could really compile a book, a way to educate children, and spread it widely, so that the world would be able to learn it, what a great merit it would be! It is no exaggeration to say that by then, all the descendants, as long as his books are still circulating, as long as there are children learning his knowledge, even if there are only a few words, it will be enough to leave a name for eternity! Master Mo worked tirelessly for the people of the world, and did not avoid suffering, in order to protect the morality of the world.
Then can he also do a great deed for the people of the world, so that morality can be passed down? Master Mo pursues the present, so he may also seek the future!
Xun Ke's eyes became brighter and brighter. Mr. Gu's words seemed to have removed the huge rock that was pressing on him, allowing him to glimpse the vast sky!
This is what is called an epiphany!
"I see!"
Xun Ke shouted excitedly, bowed three times to Gu Dan, and said happily: "Thank you Mr. Gu for your guidance!!!"
His words were sincere and heartfelt, without any excuses or dissatisfaction, and were full of the youthful vigor and confidence.
"Well, it's good that you can figure it out."
Gu Dan smiled and turned back into the house.
Xiaoying followed him secretly, walked into the house, tugged at Gu Dan's sleeve, and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Gu, are you trying to trick that fool? You want to find a way to teach all the children to become useful people! I'm afraid even a saint is not enough!"
Although she is young, she is from the royal family after all, so she naturally understands the importance of books.
The bunch of pedantic scholars supported by the royal family would rather fight their brains out than admit that some classics can be used as the way to apply to the world. This is the fundamental reason why many enlightenment books seem to be a bit jumpy and completely different in style.
After all, which scholar doesn't want to be the teacher of all his descendants? If even the top can't say which one is the most important and what kind of rules and restrictions should be set, then the lower levels will naturally be even more chaotic! In the end, it is better to simply give a general direction, but how to learn specifically is up to each party, just don't jump out of the big framework.
If you want to educate the people, you can't just write a book and expect it to be recognized and used by the world.
Only real gold is not afraid of fire. Are all educated people fools for not understanding this shortcut that sounds like the easiest way to leave a name in history?
No, on the contrary, it is precisely because this road is more difficult, difficult enough to discourage people! Xun Ke is only a year older than her, and her lifelong dream is just to grow many beautiful flowers and plants. Only that fool dares to take such an ideal that is almost nothing as a goal, right?
If you want to promote it throughout the country and gain its recognition, you must first conquer all the scholars in the world!
Could that wood be made to this extent? She was skeptical.
"Uncle Gu, his brain isn't working well to begin with. Why don't you try to persuade him and give him a different goal? If he gets stuck in this dilemma, I'm afraid he won't be able to eat for the rest of his life!" Xiaoying advised.
"Ha, the little girl thinks a lot."
Gu Dan nodded in agreement at first, but then changed the subject and said, "Although Xun Ke is still young, he has always wanted to do something for the people of the world, and this is the most important thing. He has a tough, simple, intelligent, and steady character. The most important thing is that he dares to question and has his own thoughts.
Instead of always being against martial arts, why not try another method? Maybe that's what he's good at?"
Ever since Moqiu killed the emperor, Qin Lisheng became obsessed with martial arts.
In the past two years, Xun Ke has also tended to become more like Qin Lisheng's crazy self!
How could his little courtyard have deserved the birth of two such desperate monsters?
Besides, Xun Ke's aptitude in martial arts is actually not as good as Qin Lisheng's. According to the current rate of progress, Qin Lisheng will be able to complete the blood and qi barrier in a few years, and at worst he can become a quasi-grandmaster.
It would be extremely difficult for Xun Ke to achieve success in this area. Changing the track might give him some surprises. He should stop acting like he is risking his life to fight martial arts.
"Even if it doesn't work, the process of thinking is also a kind of growth. He has come out of the hardships of Yuzhou, so his mind shouldn't be that fragile. Let him think about it for a few years. At his age now, he doesn't need to take action, so why bother to fight with martial arts?"
Gu Dan explained to Xiaoying.
"So this is what Uncle Gu thinks?"
After the doubts were resolved, Xiaoying showed an expression of "I understand" on her face and nodded repeatedly.
Although Uncle Gu always behaved very coldly and would not make particularly close moves with anyone, he actually saw everything and remembered it silently! He would only point it out at the right time, and it was usually unknown to outsiders.
Uncle Gu is really a very warm person!
