After a while, Yun Luo said angrily, "Then we can join forces with the Confucians and the Kong family to start the battle of the Divine Path!"
Wu Jiu looked at Yun Luo with pity and said, "If it was five years ago, no, even three years ago, the Hall of Rites would definitely win the battle of the Divine Path. But now, if the Hall of Rites starts the battle of the Divine Path, the Legalism Punishment Hall, the Military War Hall, the Medicine Hall, the Gong Hall, the Mohist Hall, the Farmer Hall, and other forces will follow Fang Sheng like a pack of hyenas and devour the Hall of Rites. Not even a bone will be left! "
All the elders present felt a chill run down their spines.
Wu Jiu was absolutely right. The current situation of the human race was completely different. Everything else aside, the Legalist Discipline Hall was already eyeing the Confucian Rites Hall. Fang Yun only needed to give them a look, and all the Legalist scholars would pounce on him like hounds.
Until the Hall of Rites was dead!
Wu Jiu continued, "If we lose the battle of the Divine Path with Fang Sheng, we will be nailed to the Pillar of Shame in history and go down in history in infamy. If we win and Fang Sheng's Divine Path collapses, then we won't have to worry about the Pillar of Shame. Because before the Pillar of Shame was built for us, the humans were already wiped out by the demons and barbarians! "
Wu Jiu's words made Yun Luo and the other elders sweat profusely.
They couldn't refute him at all.
All of them seemed to have been awakened by a bucket of cold water. Their minds regained their calmness, and they abandoned all their emotions and used their divine sense to think.
In the end, they came to the same conclusion as Wu Jiu.
Once they started an all-out war with Fang Yun, either they would lose or the human race would lose.
Wu Jiu continued, "In these years, the human race has experienced unprecedented upheavals. If we think about it carefully, almost all of these upheavals are related to Fang Sheng …"
"The biggest change is the Literati Star. How is he related to Fang Sheng?"
Strangely, Yun Luo was clearly questioning him, but after he finished speaking, he looked a little anxious, as if he had said something to deceive himself.
Wu Jiu was silent for a long time, then said, "After Kong Sheng killed the Saints of the Water Race, who doesn't know about the rumors of the Saint Clans?"
"What rumors?" Kang Ha-chuan asked in confusion. Then he realized that many scholars were also curious.
Yun Luo immediately said, "Those are just rumors! Don't take it seriously. "
"I wonder if Brother Wu Jiu can elaborate on the rumours!" Kang Ha-chuan could not help but ask.
Wu Jiu continued, "You should know that Fang Sheng won a bet with the Monster Realm and obtained a tributary of the Immemorial Galaxy."
All the Great Scholars nodded.
"This item has the ability to travel through time and space."
All the elders were shocked.
"Before Dragon City opened, Mr. Jinglong had the East Sea Dragons bring this item to Dragon City. The Notre-Dame has a clear record of this. I … heard it with my own ears."
The Pavilion Elders all knew that Wu Jiu was not qualified to investigate such matters, but they had personally gone to verify it with the relevant people and found out the truth.
Wu Jiu swept his gaze over the crowd and said, "The rumor among the Saint Families is that Fang Sheng traveled through time and space to the future! He had seen the future! That's why he's so radical in his actions. He can't tell us that he can only solve all the disasters that will affect the future! Emperor Qing is a disaster, Rites and Music is a disaster, Veneration of the Ancients is a disaster, and even … a certain Half-saint could be a disaster! "
The Great Scholars who had never heard of this were shocked. They did not expect such a thing to happen.
"I don't believe it!" Yun Luo said firmly.
"Then what do you believe?" Wu Jiu asked.
Yun Luo's gaze swept over everyone and said slowly, "Old Man believes that the ancestors were right, and Kong Sheng was right. In ancient times, the road did not pick up anything left behind, and the door was not closed at night! Old Man believes that what the Old Man learned is right, that the Old Man's brain is right, and that the Old Man's eyes are right! I don't oppose the reform, but I oppose the complete rejection of Kong Sheng! I oppose the complete rejection of Confucianism! Without benevolence, without Rites and Music, would it still be Confucianism? It wouldn't be Confucianism! "
All the Pavilion Elders were silent, speechless.
Kang Ha-chuan suddenly sighed and said, "I didn't want to express my opinion. However, the Old Man talked to Fang Sheng about this issue. "
"What did he say at the time?" Yun Luo asked.
A look of admiration appeared on Kang Ha-chuan's face as he said, "He said that there was a ship owner on the Yangtze River who would replace the rotten ship with a new plank every once in a while. When the first plank was replaced, would the ship still be the original ship? "
No one responded. This question seemed obvious. Of course it was.
"He continued to ask me, 'Is the ship still the original ship after replacing half of it?'"
All the Great Scholars were stunned. This was not easy to judge.
"He asked me again, 'If there is only one plank left on the ship, will it still be the original ship?'"
This time, everyone fell into deep thought.
"He finally asked me, 'If the last plank is replaced, will the ship still be the original ship?'"
No Great Scholar replied.
Wu Jiu asked, "What did you say at the time?"
Kang Ha-chuan smiled and said, "I always speak my mind, so I finally said, 'If the last plank is replaced, then it will naturally not be the original ship.'"
Several Great Scholars nodded.
"What did Fang Sheng say after that?" Yun Luo asked.
Kang Ha-chuan pointed in the direction of the Two Boundaries Mountain and said, "Fang Sheng asked me, 'If there is a rock on the wall of the Two Boundaries Mountain that hasn't been replaced, is that the Two Boundaries Mountain?'"
Everyone in the Ceremonial Hall was stunned.
"Fang Sheng then asked me, 'Thousands of years later, if there is a person who is completely different from me from head to toe, but how can I be sure that he is not my descendant?'"
The Ceremonial Hall was silent.
After a long time, Yun Luo's mouth slowly moved. He opened his mouth with great difficulty, as if his lips were sewn shut.
"What did Fang Sheng say in the end?"
"Fang Sheng said, 'If the ship can still carry the owner to fish, can still provide food and clothing for the family, can still carry the hopes of the family, and can still ride the wind and waves, that ship will still be the same ship.'"
"Fang Sheng said, 'If the Two Boundaries Mountain collapses, or even if there are only ruins left, as long as someone stands on it one day and says,' We humans once fought against the demons and barbarians here! ' 'Shed our blood here!' 'Shouted here, roared here, cried here, and raged here!' 'Even if only one person says it, the Two Boundaries Mountain will still be the Two Boundaries Mountain!' "
"Fang Sheng said, 'That person thousands of years later may be in a distant star, and may even have a completely different accent, but when he speaks, you will feel deja vu. That person may wear strange clothes, but when he writes, those words will make your heart beat faster. That person may not know what etiquette is, but when he politely greets you, you will feel comfortable. That person may not know what a ruler is, but when he speaks, you will feel respect. That person may not know what Confucianism is, but when he says that he wants to be a good person, you will see the sincerity in his eyes. Even …'"
