Chapter 1192 Living Immortal
Zhuge Liang looked at the bookcase under his feet, then looked at Jiang Gan, and smiled and said, "Are you a god?"
"Of course not." Jiang Gan smiled, but felt a little nervous. He didn't know why Sun Ce took special care of him to visit the boy, but Sun Ce had done too many things that were puzzled, and it was nothing more. What he was strange about was that when he looked at the boy, he suddenly felt a sense of disconfidence.
After following Sun Ce in the past few years, except for that trip to Jiujiang, he has been in trouble and is so confident that he is almost conceited that he hasn't felt like this for a long time.
The living god was right in front of him, but Zhuge Liang was not interested in seeing it. Obviously, he was not convinced by the saying of the gods. When he asked this sentence, he implicitly said that he had guessed wrongly. He could not forcefully open Zhuge Liang's bookcase to verify. Betting is not the goal, but inviting Zhuge Liang to go to Pingyu is the goal. If Zhuge Liang doesn't want to go, what can he do if he guesses correctly?
"I have two bookcases. If you say this, you will lose."
Jiang Gan stumbled and smiled knowingly, but could not hide his regret. "I will fulfill my contract if I admit to the bet."
"You can't say you are completely wrong, because there are notes from the martial arts lecture hall in another bookcase in my bookcase." Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "It's better to do this. When you go back, if you pass by Yangdu, you might as well take us two brothers to a bet. How about it?"
"You won't go to Liaodong?"
"I came to send my eldest brother to Liaodong, and I didn't plan to go there. My second brother just came out to relax and see the world."
"Okay, it's a matter of determination." Jiang Gan laughed loudly. "If your elder brother doesn't dislike him, I can arrange for him to take a boat to Liaodong, and the food and accommodation safety is guaranteed. If we encounter any trouble, we can also help."
"It's better to obey your orders than to be respectful."
As the two were talking, the crowd rushed towards this side, and an old man with white hair and hair was surrounded by stars. He was tall and looked at least nine feet tall, with a thin face, long beards, and no crown on his head. He only had a wooden hairpin with snow-white hair. His eyes opened and closed, and he was in good spirits. Jiang Gan was shocked and felt a sense of familiarity.
At this time, Sun Qian squeezed over from the crowd, pulled Jiang Gan, and looked furious. "Brother Ziyi, the living immortal returned from the fairy mountain in the sea, and wanted to go to Pingyu to meet General Sun."
"Oh, is that?" Jiang Gan was caught off guard. He actually didn't believe in gods, nor did he believe in living gods. Jian originally regarded himself as a god, but now he has become a doctor around Sun Ce. Recently, he has studied dye purification with a group of Taoist priests in Chenliu. To put it bluntly, they are just alchemists who know some alchemists and have nothing to do with gods. At this moment, he was a little shaken when he saw Yu Ji.
Why is it so coincidental that Yu Jihui appeared here when he was welcoming Gongsun Xu, and said bluntly that he wanted to go to Pingyu to meet Sun Ce?
When Jiang Gan was hesitating, Yu Ji came to them. He was not in a hurry to walk, but he was tall and long, and could only take two steps to others. He seemed not in a hurry, but he walked slowly. He came to Jiang Gan in a few steps. However, he did not look at Jiang Gan. His bright eyes looked back and forth twice on Zhuge Liang's body, and finally fell on the book in Zhuge Liang's hand and laughed loudly.
"Young man, you are an immortal who is a worldly being born, not an immortal who is born. This "The Greatest Taoist Talk of the World" is not suitable for you."
Zhuge Liang was surprised and looked up at Yu Ji. "I dare to ask the immortal, what is an immortal who is an immortal who is an immortal who is a worldly being born?"
Yu Ji stroked his long beard and smiled. "You said, is it Dao, is it Xiandi?"
"Naturally, it's great."
"That's right, the Tao is great, and the gods are just people who practice Taoism. The worldly immortals and the worldly immortals cultivate Taoism, but the methods of cultivation are different. The worldly immortals regard the worldly immortals as the universe, and cultivate the way of the world, first become kings and then become saints. If they are blocked in the middle, they will disappear and their fame will last forever. The worldly immortals regard themselves as the universe, and cultivate the way of personal ways. The way of gold and jade is to become saints first and then become kings. Even if the fortune is not good, they cannot leave their names forever, and they can still be seen forever. Although the "Talk of the World's Supreme Tao" is named after the world, they still practice the way of personal ways, which is the way of the world, not the way of entering the world."
"Whether you enter the world or leave the world, you are all Taos. Can't you have both? Cultivating oneself and becoming a saint, and cultivating one's world's king isn't the goal of scholars all over the world?"
Yu Ji looked at Zhuge Liang, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes. "Young man, even though he said that, the road is difficult to walk. For example, when you go to Liaodong, the sea can be feasible and land can be feasible. Although the journey is different, the experiences on the road are very different and cannot be both. You have great wisdom, but also great ambitions, and wisdom is not enough to support your ambitions, so you can become a worldly immortal, but not a worldly immortal."
After hearing this, everyone looked at Zhuge Liang. Even if he was an immortal in the world, he would be an immortal. It was a great blessing for this young man to be so valued by immortal Yu Ji.
Jiang Gan watched coldly, and was also surprised. Although Zhuge Liang had a young face, he was tall and had an extraordinary demeanor. He was still calm and composed while watching, and he could not see the clues at all. This demeanor alone was not an ordinary person. No wonder Sun Ce asked him to come here to visit him. Fortunately, he had a good luck, so he met him here, otherwise he would have almost missed it.
Zhuge Liang pondered for a while and let out a sigh of relief. "The world is in chaos, like hell. How can I stop it and not ask, just seek personal enlightenment. Zeng Zi said: A scholar must not be broad-minded and resolute, and the road is long. There is a god in the West saying: If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? Since I can't get both, then I will be a world-renowned immortal."
Yu Ji stretched out his big hand like a palm fan and gently stroked Zhuge Liang's shoulders. His fingers were thin and long, with almost no flesh, with clear joints, but smooth and visible skin, and no wrinkles were seen. "Young man, although he was unavailable for immortality, he could expect his life to be expected, breathing and guiding his mind and calming his mind, and having no desires to observe its wonders, and having desires to observe its boundaries is also a joy."
Zhuge Liang bowed to thank him. "Thank you for your advice from the immortal."
Yu Ji turned around and looked at Jiang Gan, with his snow-white eyebrows slightly raised. "It's crazy to gallop and hunt. You've been rushing too hard during this period."
Jiang Gan laughed and bowed. "Thank you, the immortal. I have limited qualifications, and I probably won't be an immortal in this life. If I meet a wise master, I just want to do whatever I want. I will live for a day and I will not dare to ask for too much."
"The way of civil and military affairs is to relax and relax. Do not blindly seek speed. You must know that hasteness will not be achieved." Yu Ji looked back and said to Zhuge Liang: "I want to go to Pingyu and pass by Langya. Are you willing to walk with me?"
Zhuge Liang looked at Jiang Gan and bowed and smiled, "Thank you, Immortal. But I just made an agreement with Mr. Jiang that I would take his car back, so I won't bother with the immortal. Since the immortal is going to Pingyu, we may have a chance to see you again."
Yu Ji nodded, said nothing, and drifted away.
The crowd followed Yu Ji and rushed past Jiang Gan and Zhuge Liang, and finally the two of them were left. Jiang Gan grinned, raised his feet, dusted off the shoes that were trampled by others, rubbed his feet, frowned slightly, and felt an indescribable uneasiness in his heart. He raised his head again and looked at the sea in the distance.
