Chapter 43 Debate Under the Light 2

The first time I saw such a scene, the people on the south wall were scared. They thought there were some demons and monsters hidden in the lightning furnace. Otherwise, where did such a strong wind come from? However, in the blink of an eye, there was not yet a whisper from the crowd. An unprecedented lightning rushed out of the clouds with a sharp cry and fell straight down towards the lightning furnace. The bright beam of light shook around like the day. After hitting the huge spear pointing straight to the sky, it was enough to destroy the sky. The lightning suddenly shook like a tame lamb and obediently rushed into the arms of the lightning furnace. The originally dark and quiet stove suddenly shone out tens of thousands of blue lights, accompanied by waves. This ancient wonder continued until the heavy rain poured down, and it came to an end.

Li Chuhou and a group of officials from Luzhou Prefecture stood in the Nanchengmen Tower for a long time and pondered for a long time before leaving slowly with an indescribable color.

The next day after the rain, the Luzhou government became lively, surrounded by whether the lightning furnace was harmful or beneficial. A group of boring market people began to talk, but in contrast, the government office was having the same debate.

This topic is still thrown out by Li Chuhou. As for the two sides of the debate, he doesn't have to look for it. These people come uninvited. The local Confucian scholar Lin, led by Mr. Ruo Chong, the head of Wuzhi Academy, is a faction. Xia Yu represents the official faction. The rich merchants and craftsmen in Luzhou Prefecture and local rich families form their own faction. These three factions , talk about your own words and tongue.

Mr. Ruo Chong proposed: "The lightning in the air is the way of heaven, and the fate of heaven cannot be violated. Moreover, it is even more against the law of heaven to deceive the lightning born with magic ** cleverness. From ancient times to the past, it is difficult for those who go against the sky. It is difficult to tolerate it is true that they will perish and humiliate themselves. It is not the act of a wise man!"

Xia Yu nodded in cooperation and did not agree or disagree. Next, he asked Tang Xuan, the representative of the rich family, to talk about his opinion. Tang Xuan nodded, his face was still black, and the charred beard had not been repaired, but his spirit was particularly good. He was eager to say, "Fathers, lightning is really wonderful. Listen. At that time, most of this thing is harmful to the world, and it is also obvious to all. If it is light, it will burn houses and trees, and if it will kill people. On the contrary, if it guides lightning like Zhao Ashi, it can turn harm into profit. Today's electric light is an example. This electric lamp does not need candles, torches, lanterns, and lanterns. It needs electricity to light up, and this electricity is also the lightning given by God. It is inexhaustible. It is like a trickle of water. The only difficulty is that the light bulb production is kept secret for the time being. I think if Zhao is able to pass on the technology of light bulb making to the world in the future, it will be very beneficial to the country and the people!"

After Tang Xuan's words, there was a lot of ** among the merchants behind him. Some people agreed, some were worried, and some people had a wait-and-see attitude. Those who agreed were nothing more than found business opportunities through Tang Xuan's words; most of the people who were worried were businessmen who made a living by candles, lamp oil, etc. As for the wait-and-see attitude, it was I haven't figured it out yet. Let's take a look at the limelight!

After listening to Tang Xuan's words, Xia Yu also nodded, did not make a statement, and let Mr. Ruo Chong continue to refute.

I only saw that the old scholar seemed to have been prepared for a long time. Suddenly, he moved out of "Zhou Yi" and made a divination on the day of the birth of lightning. The hexagram was: Heng.

"Strange, strange!" Mr. Ruo Chong said strangely, "What's the explanation for the emergence of Henggua at this time?" The constant shocks up, the top is strong and the bottom is soft, the thunder and the wind are both strong and soft. The sun and the moon can shine for a long time, and the four changes can be completed for a long time. The saint has been in his way for a long time and the world has turned into a long time. Look at its constant, and the feelings of heaven and earth can be seen!"

But on the other hand, does the hexagram imply not to go against the sky? After thinking about this festival, Mr. Ruo Chong suddenly said, "Since the way of heaven cannot be violated, the tunnel cannot be violated. Things in the world have to rely on yourself to last for a long time. If you want to be lazy and borrow the power of God, I don't think it may last forever. It's better not to have it. !"

Although Tang Xuan is not good at Zhou Yi and is not good at divination and arguing, he is a businessman. Even if he is looking at Wensheng, he can find his own reason. Thinking of Tang Xuan, he rolled up his sleeves and said to Mr. Ruochong, "What Mr. Zhao means, the farmland does not need to water when there is a great drought, and there is no need to seek medical treatment when he is sick. The barbarians disturbs. The Song Dynasty doesn't have to fight back. Just let nature take its course according to the will of God. How about it?"

"A school of nonsense, when did I say that the arable land does not need to be watered when there is a drought? I just talk about the matter, saying that lightning is the divine power of heaven. This divine power is like the reverse scales of the dragon. It can't be touched at will. Maybe it will harm the world. Tang Yuan, this out of context is not done by a gentleman. I think you are too eager to profit. !"

Mr. Ruo Chong's last sentence poked Tang Xuan's pain, and he regretted it as soon as he said it, but it was impossible to take back the water spilled out.

At this time, everyone looked back at Tang Xuan and saw that his face was red and white, blue and purple, and he was so hateful. Although Tang Xuan has an official position, he hates some people most in his life that he is snobbish, because his family member and foreigner is donated by his father's money, so he can't stand it. That is, someone mocked him in his words. Today, Mr. Ruo Chong is an enemy who is automatically sent to the door. It didn't take long for the old scholar to say a word. Tang Xuan suddenly shouted, "Ruo Chong Laoer, you also bully people too much. Eat me!"

Before he finished speaking, Tang Xuan flew with one foot. Ruo Chong's old scholar's stomach was firm and firm. In the public's office, Mr. Ruo Chong fell to the sky, and his face was swept to the ground. After running, a nameless anger suddenly appeared in his chest. With this anger, Mr. Ruo Chong seemed to rush to Tang Xuan, two Individuals wrestled on the spot.

Li Chuhou, the governor, didn't expect that a debate that would shock the world in the future would turn into a fist and foot. In a hurry, he scolded loudly, " Stop it. Isn't it possible to be an official who is so presumptuous in the court?"

The shocking wood fell, and the sound shook the roof tiles. However, Tang Xuan and Ruo Chong were both angry. Li Chuhou shouted in vain, and Jing Tangmu's voice was even more powerful. Who is afraid of whom? Tang Xuan is not afraid of losing his official, and Ruo Chong is not afraid of who will retaliate. He is the mentor of today's top student Yang Yu.
