Seeing that it was an elegant young man, the man couldn't help but have a good impression and said, "The gentleman doesn't know, this man's name is Toad, and he is a well-known worried person in our country, and he will tell him what he worries about here every other month, and today is the day he started to talk about it." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

When Lu Di heard this, he couldn't help but be curious, there was a moon in the Three Kingdoms in the later generations, and this Qiguo scholar was good, and he talked about worries on a fixed day every month.

At this time, the man called Toad said, "What I am talking about today is what I was worried about last month, this thing is not impossible, if it happens, you and I will die." ”

Rumble! Lu Di almost didn't fall down when he listened to the tone of his words, why did this guy's opening remarks look so much like Liu Baorui, a master of cross talk in later generations?

My story doesn't happen now, it's a matter of the Republic of China, if it is...... You and I......

Lu Di was trembling by Lei's body, and the onlookers seemed to have long been used to it, and the horned boy who only listened urged, "Hurry up, tell the story quickly......

Evil, Toad Wen looked at the child with white eyes, and the worries he told every month became a monthly story meeting in his heart!

Thinking of this, he sighed and recounted his worries: "You know what? Heaven and earth were originally together, just like this piece of earth. ”

His words caused the children to be shocked, and the adults said, "Toad, we already know this, at the beginning of heaven and earth, it was for chaos, and the great god Pangu opened the world to create us today." ”

Hearing this, the toad laughed and said, "Since you know that the heavens and the earth are split, aren't you worried that one day, the sky above our heads will fall and destroy us?" ”

This? Everyone looked at each other in shock and panic, and they didn't know what to do?

yes, what if that day comes?

"The sky is falling, the sky is falling, Daddy, Daddy......" the children cried.

There was a scuffle in the crowd.

Lu Di looked at the man named Toad, his expression was motionless, and the person called Toad also seemed to notice that someone was staring at him, and he and Lu Di looked at each other.

Lu Di bowed, and the toad returned the salute.

Toad said, "Lang Jun is not from my country?" ”

Lu Di was stunned when he heard this, and said, "How do you know, sir?" ”

Toad smiled, "Your etiquette is not our country's etiquette."

Lu Di was stunned when she heard this, and then laughed.

This toad's scholar should be a hermit in the kingdom of Qi!

But I didn't expect the worrying story recorded in "Liezi" to be true!

After everyone dispersed, Toad saw that Lu Di did not leave, so he smiled and said, "I don't know son, what do you have to teach me as a scattered person?" ”

Yes? Lu Di was really surprised this time, "How does Mr. know the identity of Tu?" ”

The toad laughed again, and Lu Di patted his head and said, "Oops, it's still etiquette!" ”

Toad stroked his beard and nodded, "Plus yesterday's rumors in the city and your accent."

Lu Di admired the toad's ability to observe and reason, and threw himself to the ground, and hurriedly gave another salute.

Toad smiled, "Childe, if you have time, would you like to go to the grass hall to talk?" ”

Lu Di agreed.

Toad's cottage is located under a giant crooked-neck tree.

"Sir, this tree is so useless, why don't you cut it down and plant some pillars?" It was Zhang Mengtan who spoke.

Toad looked at Zhang Mengtan, but turned his head and smiled at Lu Di, "Childe, do you know why I didn't cut down this tree?" ”

Lu Di looked at the surrounding environment for a while and said, "Presumably, the existence of this tree can provide shade and escape the heat for the surrounding people in the scorching summer!" ”

Toad nodded and smiled, "What Childe said is good, but this is only one of the reasons. ”

"One of the reasons?" Lu Di couldn't figure it out, and looked at the toad inquiringly.

"Lao Dan once debated with me about usefulness and uselessness, and we debated this topic for three days and three nights, and then we reached a consensus that if it is useless, it will be of great use!"

"Just like this tree!" With that, Toad pointed to the huge crooked-necked tree.

When Lu Di heard that Toad and Lao Dan (Lao Tzu) could talk about the Tao for three days and three nights, his heart moved, and he became more and more respectful to him.

When he looked at the giant tree with a crooked neck, he seemed to realize, "Sir, you mean that this tree is not worth cutting down, so it is of great use to this tree?" ”

Toad smiled and said nothing.

Zhang Mengtan was puzzled: "Then what does this have to do with the reason why this tree is not cut down?" ”

Lu Di said, "Meng Tan, useful and useless are relative, cutting and not cutting are relative, why do you have enough reasons not to cut down?" ”

Zhang Mengtan suddenly saluted Toad and Lu Di.

The toad entered the thatched hut and took some utensils and futons.

Lu Di smiled when he saw it, it was a tea set produced by Qi State.

"Su Wen Gongzi, I have studied tea, Toad wants to learn today, and I hope that Gongzi will teach him" Toad uses charcoal as fuel.

After a while, the water in the pottery teapot boiled.

"Childe, please look, this is my baby" With that, Toad opened a clay pot.

As soon as the clay pot was opened, Lu Di smelled a bitter smell.

"Sir, who is this?" Lu Di asked suspiciously.

Toad said, "This is the leaf from a bitter ding tree in my South Garden, and I dare to order it to be bitter tea." ”

Kuding tea? Lu Di looked at the toad in astonishment, don't bring such a play, it's enough to invent tea and tea art by yourself, and now it's good, Kuding tea came into being thousands of years in advance.

It's just that the Kuding tea in later generations was not all grown south of the Yangtze River?

Why does Qiguo also have this thing?

Oh yes, now the climate has moved north, and now it will be temperate, and now it will be subtropical, and if it is subtropical, it will be tropical, so of course the types of vegetation will also move north.

Therefore, it is not unusual for Qiguo to have bitter tea.

After the hot water is sent to the clay cup where two or three tea leaves are placed, a bitter taste that attracts the tongue buds rushes straight to the nose.

"Good tea, good tea!" Lu Di strained the tea several times before drinking it into her stomach.

"Is it bitter?" Toad laughed.

Lu Di replied, "Bitter, but bitter is energetic, bitter has a doorway, and bitter makes people refreshed!" ”

Hearing this, Toad stroked his beard and was very pleased, "Childe, since this tea is bitter and can make you feel an unusual taste, what about the pain of life?" ”

Well? Lu Di was stunned when he heard this, and the great hermit seemed to see that he was forced to run away, so he gently comforted himself, "Thank you, Mr. for your advice today." ”

Hearing this, Toad laughed: "Childe's consciousness ability is really the first among his peers in the world!" ”

"Haha, Mr. Miao praised, falsely praised!" Lu Di said embarrassedly.

"Come, please," the two of them raised their glasses and drank tea instead of wine.

"Sir, there is something unclear about Tu, I hope Mr. can solve the doubts" Lu Di couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart.

"Childe, please speak" Toad is also a free and easy person.

Lu Di said, "I heard that Mr. will tell a worried thing in the crowd on the street every month, and these worries often appear in a short period of time or very rarely, but you still said, why is this? ”

Toad said, "Childe, what kind of person do you think I am?" ”

Lu Di said: "Mr. is a person of great wisdom, great virtue and great wisdom. ”

Toad smiled, "I am such a person who is almost comparable to a saint in the eyes of Gongzi, but in the eyes of Qiguo and other people in the world, I am a ridiculous, ridiculous, stupid and useless person!" ”

"For example, when I tell me today that I am worried that the sky will fall, those who think they are wise must laugh at me for being stupid."

"Childe, do you know the reason why the world is chaotic?"

Lu Di said: "People's hearts are in turmoil! ”

Toad smiled and nodded, "Yes, people's hearts are confused!" ”

"Confucius wants to use etiquette to bring back people's hearts, but Lao Dan is desperate and thinks that people's hearts will be restored to the extreme, and I think that the chaos of people's hearts lies in the lack of awe, so I preach to the scholars every month that people should have a sense of crisis and awe, so that people dare not follow their minds......"

After hearing this, Lu Di stood up and saluted respectfully to the toad, "Today's teachings of Mr. Tu will never be forgotten for a lifetime." ”

"Come, continue to drink tea...... toad added another cup of bitter tea to Lu Di.
