V17.chapter 54 (1/2)
Confucius carriage team, out of Peidi!
This time, although Confucius was seriously injured, it was better than the last time in Mang Mountain. After three days, Confucius woke up.
After waking up, Confucius looked at a group of students.
The students are not as vulnerable as expected, each performing his or her own duties, as usual.
”Teacher, be careful. Take a rest here and drink some water.” Zi Yu supported Confucius and sat on the stone beside him.
Confucius drank some water and looked at a group of students.
”As a teacher, I lost to Laozi again. Don't you have any idea?” Confucius calmly looked at a group of students.
This time, the students shook their heads.
”Why? Don't you think Confucianism and Taoism are wrong? ” Confucius looked at the students.
”Teacher, we have been traveling around the world with you for decades. We have already understood that our Confucianism is a broad road, and there will always be a time when it will bloom. Now it is not my fault, but their loss, that we are not treated by other countries.” Yan Hui said solemnly.
”Teacher, you didn't lose to Lao Tzu. We can see clearly that we just started late, and there is no more accumulation of righteousness than Laozi! If there is the same amount, I am not as good as the teacher! ” Ziyu immediately held the fist.
”Yes, teacher, the same 30000 Li Road sea, Laozi can not do anything to the teacher, but also vowed that only 30000 Li and the teacher's road sea collide, the result is not betrayal?” Zilu said immediately.
”Teacher, my Confucian road is a broad road, which students have insisted on for decades, right!”
”Teacher, no one can shake our adherence to Confucianism and Taoism!”
”I raise Haoran with my heart!”

A large number of students expressed their insistence on Confucianism and Taoism. This insistence, this perseverance, was not intended to comfort Confucius, but a real sense of magnanimity in their hearts.
”Maybe it's not a bad thing for me to lose to Laozi this time!” Confucius looked at the students and sighed.
”Teacher?”
”Although I lost, but I let you see more clearly, more firmly to Confucianism and Taoism! I'm glad to be a teacher Confucius sighed.
”Teacher, you didn't lose, we all saw it!” Zilu insisted again.
Confucius shook his head: ”being a teacher is not someone who can't afford to lose. If you don't win, you don't win. Taoism still has its own uniqueness. Laozi was just caught off guard by my temporary understanding of the Tao. The conditioned reflection is to display the sea of Tao that is more than 30000 Li. If you are new, the victory or defeat will be unknown.”
”No matter what, I'm a Confucianist, I'm not inferior to Taoism!” Zi Yu insisted.
Confucius nodded: ”I also firmly believe that the future of Confucianism, will be able to cover the entire era! However, we need to forge ahead together! ”
”Teacher, you are enough! We all learn from you? ” Ziyu felt ashamed.
Confucius shook his head.
”Today, the Taoist school is supported by Laozi alone, but Confucianism is different. Our knowledge of Confucianism and Taoism is not in me alone, but in you. Being a teacher is just preaching and learning to solve doubts! You are the foundation of the development of Confucianism and Taoism. Confucianism and Taoism are not personal thoughts of one person, but the sum of all of us. My Confucianism and Taoism have your credit, and the whole Confucianism also needs you to inherit and carry forward. It is not me who created Confucianism alone, but all of us created Confucianism together. I am not enough! Not without you Confucius was solemn.
”Teacher!” All the students were moved.
”Let's go, while I still have strength, I will follow you to travel around the world, understand all kinds of things in the world, and observe the beauty of all living beings in the universe.” Confucius was solemn.
”Yes, teacher!” A group of students nodded solemnly.
Confucius got on the carriage and went on.
Then, Confucius traveled around the world, talked with the monarchs of all countries, and collided with the theories of the world.
This tour is another 16 years.
Sixteen years later.
Confucius' carriage came out of Hangu pass again.
In the past, Wu An Jun was promised to go to the sifangguan of the state of Qin to meet scholars from all over the world. This time, the four party Pavilion and his party have really gained a lot.
When we left Hangu pass.
Confucius is even more gray, only a little black hair, led by King Wu'an of Qin, personally sent to Hangu pass.
At the moment, Confucius, with the sea of roads on his head, is as large as 300000 Li. It is majestic and magnificent, which makes the world full of righteousness.
Numerous scholars want to come to see Confucius.
All were stopped by Ziyu and others.
Confucius is now sixty-seven years old. Because he is a human being, his daily energy is limited.
No one can easily see Confucius. It was not Confucius who deliberately put on airs. On the one hand, he sought numerous scholars, but Confucius had no energy to parry. On the other hand, Zi Yu, Zi Lu, Yan Hui and other disciples all learned to understand Heaven. A group of students would be enough to guide all parties to seek scholars.
Confucius was limited in energy. He took a nap on the carriage and woke up after a bumpy ride.”Where is it?” Confucius asked in the carriage.
”Teacher, we have already left Hangu pass!” Ziyu said respectfully outside the carriage.
”Out of Hangu pass? One step closer to home There was a tenderness in Confucius' eyes.
He left home again. At the age of 67, Confucius had no energy to travel around the world. Now Confucius is on his way home.
At home, Qi guanchi has been waiting for himself for 37 years, and he is also very tired!
There is a corner of the carriage, which stores the letters sent by Prince chituo Jinwu, the official of Qi, every copy of which is carefully preserved by Confucius, because every word and sentence in the letter is full of love.
Looking at the letters, Confucius touched them gently and showed a gentle smile.
”Teacher, students have heard about Laozi's residence. We can pass by on the way. Can the teacher see Lao Tzu again?” Ziyu said again.
When Ziyu opened his mouth, all the Confucius students suddenly fell silent and raised their ears together.
”Laozi?” Confucius looked out of the car.
”Yes, we can pass by!” Zi Yu stressed.
Confucius looked at the sky, and then showed a slight smile: ”no need!”
”No? Teacher, our road now is sure to win Laozi Ziyu said immediately.
Confucius looked at Ziyu, showing a slight smile: ”how to win, how to lose?”
”Eh?” The students were puzzled.
”No matter whether I win or lose, I will never change my belief in this life. Whether I win or lose, I will firmly adhere to Confucianism. Since winning or losing will not shake me, why should I fight for a win or lose?” Confucius said calmly.
”Teacher!” A group of students were thinking.
”It doesn't matter whether we win or lose. What matters is that we have found our way! Why do you have to look at the way of others? Have you not recognized our Tao yet? ” Confucius looked at a group of students.
