Luoyang City, Imperial College.

Yesterday afternoon, Li Zhongyong received a textbook compiled and improved by his master. But how to promote the textbook? It was the first problem that Li Zhongyong wanted to solve.

It is really inconvenient to use bamboo slips to copy textbooks.

In fact, Li Zhongyong consulted his master for how to promote textbooks. But Chen Yanzhi said that he would find a way for himself.

Li Zhongyong thought of writing in silk, but that was too wasteful and too expensive. It was unrealistic.

In the end, Li Zhongyong decided to write on paper.

Cai Lun has invented paper for more than a hundred years. However, Cai Hou’s paper is very rough and not very suitable for writing. If you want to use paper to write inherited texts, you must improve the paper.

Fortunately, Li Zhongyong is already a "living dead person". He really has to concentrate on one thing and find a way to solve the problem.

It's just the length of time it took.

………………………………………

Li Zhongyong improved the papermaking process and took nearly half a month to finally create white rice paper.

When he got the first piece of rice paper, Li Zhongyong was excited and picked up his brush and wrote the four big words "righteous and sincere" on the rice paper.

"Haha." Li Zhongyong said with a smile, "Master, I finally found a way to promote text."

When he made rice paper, Li Zhongyong also wrote a letter to his master to report good news.

He thought that the master would be very happy.

But I didn’t expect that Chen Yanzhi’s reply was very dull, and he just said one word “good”.

At this point, Li Zhongyong realized that his master's state of mind had truly reached the level of Gujing Bubo, and he could not compare with him.

……………………

Li Zhongyong has always remembered his master's words, and there are many smart people in the world. In order not to lag behind others, Li Zhongyong is walking on thin ice every day, restrains himself and cultivates himself, and makes continuous progress.

Whether it is learning literature or practicing martial arts.

Li Zhongyong wanted to improve his mind and reach the legendary state of "harmony between man and nature".

However, how can the spiritual realm be so easy to improve?

As of now, in the entire Han Dynasty, Li Zhongyong only knows three people who have reached the unity of man and nature, namely, Master, Wang Yue, and Nanhua Immortal.

Li Zhongyong's martial arts major was Tai Chi, not Chen Yanzhi's health guidance technique. Because he thought Tai Chi was more suitable for him.

Li Zhongyong's Tai Chi has reached the state of being softest, hardest, and comfortable. With this body of martial arts and knowledge, he can go anywhere in the world.

Recently, Li Zhongyong met a friend, Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu, whose courtesy name is Dezu, was in his twenties. He was extremely smart, literary and outstanding. If he had a literary talent, Li Zhongyong might not be able to beat Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu has not reached the realm of "living dead", but it is not far from that. Although Yang Xiu was born in the Yang family of the gentry and received a good education since childhood, Li Zhongyong believes that Yang Xiu definitely does not have much of what he learned. In terms of self-cultivation, Yang Xiu definitely does not have the guidance of a skilled teacher, and Yang Xiu even knows martial arts.

If Yang Xiu could be worshipped under his master, Li Zhongyong felt that Yang Xiu's achievements at this moment would definitely be above him.

Speaking of Yang Xiu, Li Zhongyong remembered Cao Chong, who was only three years old. He was such an extremely intelligent little guy.

Li Zhongyong said in his heart: "Yang Xiu, I have seen him. I wonder what kind of person Zhuge Liang, who was "much wisdom is almost demonic" that the master said?"

"Is Brother Orthodox?"

Yang Xiu's voice came from outside the study.

Li Zhongyong came to his senses and said with a smile: "It's Brother Dezu. Please come in."

Yang Xiu walked into the study wearing a gray robe and said, "Brother Medal, I haven't seen you for half a month. You have been staying in the Imperial Academy. What are you busy with?"

Li Zhongyong said: "Brother Dezu, you came just right. Look, what about my improved Cai Hou paper? Also, the words I wrote can catch your eye."

Yang Xiu looked at the desk.

The snow-white rice paper has four regular script characters "righteous and sincere" written on it, which is dignified and generous, just like Li Zhongyong's temperament.

Yang Xiu's pupils shrank slightly and he said in surprise: "Good paper, good handwriting. Brother Orthodox, if you improve the paper of Cai Hou, I'm afraid no one will write it with bamboo slips in the future."

Li Zhongyong said: "Bamboo slips are too bulky and it is really inconvenient to write. In the past, when a person was described as having knowledge, he used the 'five car knowledge'. In fact, how much knowledge and knowledge can the five car bamboo slips carry?"

Yang Xiu's eyes rolled and he said, "Haha... Brother Doctrine of the Mean is reasonable."

Li Zhongyong asked: "Brother Dezu, you are not going to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. What's the point of finding me?"

Yang Xiu said: "A small matter. We haven't seen each other some days, so I plan to invite you to dinner. In my house, a new chef has been hired, and his skills are good."

Cooking skills?

Li Zhongyong thought to himself, whose cooking skills can be comparable to those of the master? His cooking skills have reached the pinnacle and are superb. He has never eaten any delicious food.

"Okay." Li Zhongyong said, "I will definitely attend the banquet tonight."

Yang Xiu clasped his fists and said, "I'm waiting for Brother Orthodox to come to the evening and say goodbye."

…………………………………

evening.

Li Zhongyong left the Imperial Academy and went to Yang Xiu's mansion.

Yang Xiu was the leader of Cao Cao, and he had his own mansion in Luoyang City.

Li Zhongyong is an alternative among the officials in Luoyang City. He was the priest of the Imperial Academy and the Imperial College, but he did not live in the mansion, but instead lived in the Imperial Academy.

Li Zhongyong lived in two small rooms, one was a bedroom and the other was a study.

Life is too hard and too frugal.

Li Zhongyong doesn't care.

Master Chen Yanzhi's knowledge and ability are thousands of times better than himself, but he still lives a frugal life.

I once said that if you want to live a long life, you must hold the Three Jewels: kindness and frugality, and dare not be the world. Li Zhongyong deeply agrees with it.

When he arrived at the gate of Yang Xiu's mansion, the butler "Uncle Zhong" said enthusiastically: "Li Jijiu, my son has prepared the wine and food, please invite him quickly."

Li Zhongyong smiled and said, "Brother Dezu, please be polite."

Li Zhongyong followed the housekeeper to the hall.

When Yang Xiu saw Li Zhongyong, he said happily: "Brother Zhongyong, you finally came in time. Please sit down."

Li Zhongyong said: "It's better to come sooner than to come by chance. It seems that I came at the right time. Brother Dezu asked me."

The two of them entered the seat.

After drinking, I went through three rounds of dishes and five flavors.

Yang Xiu said: "Brother Medal, it is said that your master Mr. Chen is not only profound in knowledge, but also has the best martial arts world. Brother Medal Medal has experienced your knowledge. I wonder if I can let me see your martial arts?"

Yang Xiu had never seen Chen Yanzhi. But Chen Yanzhi's reputation was already well-known. Yang Xiu has always been very confident, but in front of Li Zhongyong, he felt a little depressed.

Because except for his literary comparison with Li Zhongyong, Li Zhongyong is far behind him in other aspects.

Li Zhongyong is so powerful. Yang Xiuzhen doesn’t know. As Li Zhongyong’s master, what level will Chen Yanzhi be so profound?

Li Zhongyong said: "Actually, my martial arts are not the most outstanding compared to my fellow brothers. I major in Tai Chi, which is a health boxing technique, not a killing technique. Since Brother Dezu wants to see it, I will make a fool of myself once."

Li Zhongyong talked about the wine in the wine glass and poured it into his palm.

The wine in the palm of the palm did not flow away, but instead condensed into a "crystal ball" the size of a table tennis ball.

Li Zhongyong's palm trembled at a strange frequency, and slight ripples appeared on the surface of the "crystal ball".

Li Zhongyong threw the "crystal ball", and then used the Tai Chi Cloud Hand and the soft power to operate. The "crystal ball" flexibly kept jumping around his body, as if he had life, full of spirituality.

Yang Xiu widened his eyes and said in shock: "Impossible. Brother Orthodox, you are not martial arts, you are a magic trick, right?"

Li Zhongyong smiled and said, "Brother Dezu, this is not a trick, but the use of the softest force in boxing."

The "Crystal Ball" returned to the palm of your hand again.

Yang Xiu touched the "crystal ball" with his hand.

Suddenly, the frequency of the vibration of the wine was destroyed and could no longer remain condensed, turning into liquid, flowing down from Li Zhongyong's palm and dripping on the table.

Li Zhongyong said: "Fighting and killing is a misunderstanding of martial arts. Crushing on the battlefield is the most superficial use of martial arts. My master once said that martial arts are profound and profound, and it is a skill of self-cultivation and mind-regulation, and learning is endless. As long as you practice martial arts to a high level, you will naturally have some ‘magic powers’ that can do things that ordinary people cannot do.”

Yang Xiu said: "So that's it. I've learned a lot. Mr. Chen is really a judicious person. Brother Doctrine of the Mean. In ten days, the Imperial Academy and the Imperial College will start. It is said that Mr. Chen has compiled the textbooks and has been sent to Luoyang City. I wonder if I can take a sneak peek?"

Li Zhongyong smiled and said, "Haha, Brother Dezu, you treat me to dinner, it's not just to read the textbooks, right? It's a small matter. The textbooks are in my study. If you want to watch them, you can do it anytime."

Yang Xiu clasped his fists and said, "Then I'm grateful for the mean. Yang is so grateful."

…………………………………

The next morning.

Li Zhongyong asked someone to send the textbooks to Yang Xiu's mansion.

Yang Xiu opened the textbook and looked at the fly-sized regular handwriting, and suddenly felt a sense of mighty aura coming to his face.

"Good word."

Yang Xiudao: "Mr. Chen's calligraphy is even more powerful than Brother Orthodox."
