"What you say is true? You didn't lie to me? You're not here to hit me, are you? Confucius stopped the carriage, looked at Zilu and asked.

"Why did I lie to you? Mr? ”

"Then why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Am I not? I'm afraid that Mr. won't believe it? No! I was afraid that Mr. wouldn't be able to stand it, so I didn't dare to say it! I? Isn't it? When it comes to this topic today, I just said it openly! I'm sorry! Mr! I? My son! I? ”

Zilu means: Sir! I'm just that person! That's it! I? I can't hide something! I feel uncomfortable holding something in my heart.

"What's not to stand about this? I? I don't care anymore! Confucius sighed.

"Sir! You're going to have to resist it! I? I can't stand it anymore! I? I'm already doubting life! I? ”

"You? What age are you? Do you still doubt life? ”

"Sir! You don't know! I've always doubted life! Isn't it? I have always suspected that there is something wrong with the mind of the gentleman! I believe in the words of Prince Rakuge! I believe in Taoism! I'm supposed to be a Taoist! I? ”

"You?" Confucius snorted angrily.

"But since following Mr. to govern the capital, I have some faith in Mr. again! Afterward! I believe there is a start again! But since the fall of Sandu, I don't believe Mr. anymore! I? I'm conflicted! I? I doubt life! ……”

Confucius interrupted, "What age are you?" You're not convinced? You have to believe in yourself! Don't be swayed by others! Walk! ”

Talking! Confucius got up the carriage and walked forward.

"Firm faith? Whining! Zilu muttered to himself: "Prince Lege said! We don't call it firm faith, but too deep obsession! The obsession is too deep! Uncle Le Ge said! That's a preconception! It is very dangerous to form a preconception! Alas! ”

Confucius ignored Zilu's exclamation and drove the carriage to it. After running for a long time, he said to Zilu who was walking on the side with his head bowed: "We must strengthen our beliefs: Lu Country does not keep people, but has its own place to keep people!" Walk! Let's go to Song Kingdom first! ”

Seeing that Confucius was still so persistent and firm in his beliefs, Zilu doubted life again. In desperation! I had to obey him and go forward.

After several years of hard work in the state of Lu, Confucius ended in failure. But! Confucius was not convinced! He still believes that his efforts will pay off.

At Zilu's suggestion, the two crossed to the west, and then went up to the official road of the Song Kingdom. But! Instead of taking the nearest official road, take a detour to a small checkpoint to pass the customs.

Zilu and Confucius didn't know the situation on the Lu Palace, so they were still very careful.

After three days of walking, the two reached their target route.

Because I was worried about accidents, and I didn't have much money on my body. So! At the suggestion of Zilu, I didn't live in the inn. Guest houses are not only expensive, but also unsafe.

Isn't it? The two of them lost a set of clothes, and they have to buy a new set to change? Naturally, the money to buy silk is not enough and I can't afford it. So! You can only buy cloth clothes. Outcome! There's less money on you.

Confucius didn't bring much money in the first place, he came out a little blind and angry. And the sub-road! I don't have much money on me. He is the pillar of the family, and he will find a way to bring it home when he receives it.

In order to save money and there was no way, Confucius had to obey Zilu's arrangement and stay in the wilderness.

In the past, Confucius also occasionally slept in the wilderness. So! I don't feel strange to sleeping in the wilderness. It's just that! After being a gentleman for more than ten years, and being an official for a few years in recent years, he is a little pampered, and now he suddenly has to live a hard life, and he is really not too adaptable.

But! In the face of reality, you have to bow your head.

Only by accepting reality can we adapt to real life.

Zilu is the appearance of Orion, and he is the best at camping in the wild. Not only did he sleep in the wild, but he could also return to his old business as a hunter.

After finding a place to settle down, Zilu went hunting.

They had two horses and a carriage, and it was not difficult to sleep in the wilderness, and they could sleep on the carriage at night. There are bamboo books in the carriage, and you can lay the books flat on it.

After Zilu had set up his hunting tools, he came back, made a fire, and sat down in front of the fire to eat dinner. And then! Just talk to Confucius.

Because of what I have been through, and I am on the way to escape. So! Confucius lost his previous gentlemanly spirit, and he didn't preach much. Most of the time! It's all exclamation.

Zilu didn't have the heart to listen to Confucius's preaching, and he didn't bother to listen to Confucius's preaching. For Confucius's teachings, he was mostly in contradictory. Though! He still believed for a while and lived according to the teachings of Confucius.

"Kill! Kill! Kill ......"

In the middle of the night, there was a non-stop shouting of killing from the official road.

Listening to the sound, the battle was fierce.

"What's going on?" Confucius also woke up, sat up and asked in surprise.

"I don't know?" Zilu rubbed his eyes and said.

"Where?"

"Over there on the official road!" Zilu answered.

The place where they slept was not on the official road, but came down from a fork in the official road, not far from the official road.

"What's going on?"

"I'll take a look!" Zilu said.

"Be careful! Don't be too eventful! If you encounter robbers, don't shoot if there are many people on the other side. You know what? Confucius confessed.

"Yes! Mr! I know! Zilu picked up a wooden stick and went towards the official road.

Soon! It's near.

The battle was very exciting, and there were many people on both sides. On the caravan side, all the costumes. The robbers' side! It's all black.

The number of people on the caravan's side was relatively small, only a hundred and ten. On the side of the robbers, there were more people, more than a hundred. But! The people on the caravan side are very good at fighting, and the people on the robbers' side can't get close.

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ……”

It was at this time! The robbers launched a new round of attacks, and the archers, who were hiding in the dark, unleashed their arrows on the side of the caravan.

Because it's night, it's a dark arrow again, as a result! The caravan suffered heavy casualties on its side.

"Protect the young master!"

"Protect the young master!"

"Protect the young master!"

Seeing this, the people on the caravan's side hurriedly moved closer to the vehicle behind.

"Leave me alone! Fight back! Our reinforcements will be there soon! This is Lu country! Afraid of hair! Inside the carriage, a young man's voice was heard.

"Who?" Zilu felt that the voice of the "young master" was very familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

After a long while, Zilu slapped his head and remembered, and shouted, "Zigong! ”

That's right! Who is he not Zigong?

Zigong! He was one of the best businessmen among the students of Confucius. Because he is a rich second generation, he has a good relationship with everyone.

Oh, yes! Zigong has disappeared in recent months, saying that he went to the Chu State to do a big business! That's right! A caravan of hundreds of people, how many people can there be in the Great Zhou world? Who is he not Zigong?
