live with conscience

Chapter 116

When Lin Lan woke up the next day, Xiaogu had already brought him back to Shanzheng's residence. There was a man named Yuan Zong in the team, talking and laughing with Zou Yan.

"Xiao Lan, come on, this is Mo Zi from the Mohist Guild who has been helping me a lot, Senior Yuan Zong. He is about to take Shan Rou and Niu Zheng as his disciples!" Zou Yan asked with a playful look. Lin Lan: "What do you think?"

Mohist Mozi!

But Lin Lan didn't give this old man a chance: "Zheng'er refused, what else do you want me to say? I met Senior Yuan Zong."

Yuan Zong nodded: "How do you know that your brother refused?"

"Because he is not suitable." The Mohists advocate universal love and non-aggression.

It's okay for Jian Ai to be able to cope with it.

Non-offensive or something, with my younger brother's aggressive behavior, it is impossible: "The purpose of the senior, in fact, from the very beginning is our kind and upright leader, Shanrou."

On the contrary, Shanrou is more suitable, no, it should be said that it is tailor-made for the spirit of Mohism.

Yuan Zong admitted frankly: "Yes, I plan to take my apprentice away."

It turns out that he has already succeeded in apprenticeship?

The younger brother's daughter-in-law is about to fly!

Lin Lan subconsciously looked at Niu Zheng.

After Niu Zheng and Shanrou looked at each other, he gave the result of their serious thinking and discussion: "We have considered this before, but we just couldn't find the right time, but if someone from the Mohist Guild joins If so, we can move faster. Sis, what do you think of each of our countries setting up a kind and righteous branch?"

"First set up experiments in several countries near Qin State, we will continue to Chu State, and Shanrou will go to Zhao State with Senior Yuanzong..."

When he spoke like this, he was still very confident, but when he looked up and saw his sister's blatantly looking at him kindly and kindly, he unconsciously felt his face was hot.

"The branch is only for designated locations, and does not involve the production of any core formula items. All the materials and money are sent by our team to find someone..."

Lin Lan didn't delve into it, but analyzed it realistically: "If it's here, Xiaogu can guarantee that you will act without mistakes, but once you separate, it will really depend on your long-distance control."

In short, it's all up to you.

Moreover, there are more things to consider for remote control. I am afraid that the two of them definitely get together less and leave more.

But seeing the firm eyes of Niu Zheng and Shanrou, Lin Lan knew that the two had made up their minds.

"Just do what you want!"

When she said this sentence, Lin Lan really had the feeling that a young eagle was about to fly high. At that moment, she suddenly felt that her mentality was getting old.

Sadly, he didn't notice that Niu Zheng looked at her with grievance.

Yuan Zong stood up and saluted Lin Lan who was sitting on Xiaogu, but Xiaogu led Lin Lan away quickly: "Senior Yuanzong, what is this for?"

Yuan Zong said his purpose: "The prince's mansion in Qin State has heard that the paper has been successfully manufactured. On behalf of the people of the world, thank you Lin Lan for your generosity."

Lin Lan was not used to being called everyone for the first time: "This is my teacher's last wish. Besides, the art of papermaking was not created by my teacher. I just told the method to Lord An. Senior thanked the wrong person. Lin Lan is not capable enough to bear the title of everyone."

However, Yuan Zong firmly believed: "Just by the various strange prescriptions you have made in Shanzheng, you can be called a master! The root of making Shanzheng invincible is you. The ones in your hands are unheard of and unseen in the Seven Kingdoms."

Without those luxury items that can be sold at a high price to the family, Shanzheng absolutely cannot afford to prepare so many funds and materials. Without all kinds of ordinary prescriptions tailored to local conditions, Shanzheng can't help so many people in time. Without those unheard of management methods, Shanzheng With a group of children, it is impossible to do it!

Lin Lan stopped talking, waiting for this senior who suddenly put a high hat on her, what did she want to say?

Yuan Zong is also not a person who can turn around: "I hope Lin Lan and everyone can make these strange recipes public, so as to benefit people all over the world!"

Obviously, when he said this sentence, the expressions of the people present were not very good.

Especially Niu Zheng, who was about to get angry.

"I refuse." Lin Lan didn't wait for him to explode, and refused without thinking: "For the time being, my prescription will only be used in the good and righteous. If other forces or organizations use it without authorization, don't blame Lan for using it very means."

Xiaogu stomped his claws in unison, and the ground cracked in response to the occasion, and within a foot, there were cracks like spider webs.

Yuan Zong: ...

Suddenly I was too scared to continue.

However, he quickly grasped Lin Lan's unfinished words: "For the time being? That is to say, Lin Lan and everyone will eventually make these public?"

Lin Lan nodded: "After the troubled times are unified, there will be no more wars and disputes. When everything about Lan does not contribute to the flames of war, it will be made public."

Make these public, let the princes and countries raise themselves stronger and fight more happily?

Everyone knows the reason.

Although it was a pity, Yuan Zong was relieved knowing that the other party was not a self-preserving person, so he could only tell his real purpose: "The old man is cheeky, and I beg Mrs. Lin to give me the method of making paper." portion, may I?"

The normal way of bargaining is of course to propose an impossible price first, and then test the bottom line. In fact, his purpose was only this at the beginning.

Lin Lan's statement was of course also: "Sorry, Senior Yuanzong, I still can't do this, but as long as it is a Mohist student who is in the middle of goodness, I can provide a fixed amount of paper."

Originally, it was used to brush up the favorability of the thigh, so of course you can't go back on your word at this time.

Besides, Lin Lan's initial purpose was to use paper for himself.

Now that even Mozi of the Mohist School has received the information, it means that the technology for large-scale production of paper capable of writing has matured. She feels that, as a technology provider, it is no problem at all to ask Duke An for some. .

Lin Lan, who turned her head around many times, has already turned her attention to various derivative products (sanitary products) that may appear after paper. (Everyone understands...)

However, he still dealt with Yuanzong: "Since the senior has already spoken in person, he naturally knows the convenience of paper. Even if I don't say it, Qin will not keep it alone for too long."

The point is just how much other countries are willing to pay for papermaking.

Yuan Zong said solemnly: "Lin Lan, everyone can't trust the old man? As far as I know, there is no agreement between you about papermaking!"

"Since senior speaks, does it mean that senior has figured out the key to papermaking?" Lin Lan looked directly at this Mozi: "Cao Qiudao's skill, against senior, even needs to use poison, which shows that senior's martial arts are superb and absolute. Above the Juggernaut, it is not difficult to obtain the crafting technology in a heavily guarded place, but still wanting to get a promise from Lan, is it an excuse to use it justifiably?"

Yuan Zong was really speechless.

Can he say that he did infiltrate the paper-making land of Qin State and write down all the methods of paper-making?

After all, among the craftsmen who make paper, there are a large number of children of his Mo family.

The State of Qin suddenly recruited craftsmen to a secret place on a large scale. They didn't know what to do. As the head of the Mohist school, a large number of Mohist children were secretly imprisoned by those in power. Of course, they must investigate clearly!

As soon as he checked, he found something that excited him.

That white paper that can be written on.

But at a glance, Yuan Zong can conclude that this is something that can change an era.

With it, the era of knowledge controlled by powerful families will come to an end.

"Don't do to others what you don't want to be done to others. Gentlemen's friendship is only based on the heart. Why should senior fall into injustice?" Knowing that she guessed right, Lin Lan rolled her eyes indecently: "If you didn't know, senior has always been virtuous." A noble man..."

Xiaogu frowned, and made a warning voice: "Gulu..."

Threateningly flapped its wings twice, bringing up a gust of wind.

Fan you!

Yuan Zong clasped his fists: "Forgive me, after all, the effect of paper is too amazing. I have a treasure that can benefit the world, but I can't show it to others. This old man is also uncomfortable. Now I have to wait!"

The skilled craftsmen of the Mo family, as well as the number of people in many countries, as long as he reveals his identity as Mo Zi, no matter which force he is in, he will give three points of favor. Even An Guogong will probably not stop him from doing it. It's a big favor, but it's not what he wants.

It doesn't matter to him personally, but if he owes Qin the great favor in his capacity as Mozi, then absolutely not.

"Since everyone in Lin Lan is unwilling, the old man will use some means to let the existence of the paper be quickly notified to the various kings and aristocratic families, is it feasible?"

Just let them know, and the recipe for that paper will soon cease to be a secret.

Not everyone has a guardian statue that can look down upon the world!

This fits Lin Lan's thoughts, but... ahem, she still can't agree directly: "What did senior say? The wind is too strong, and Lan can't hear anything clearly..."

"Guru~"

Xiao Gu cooperates with fanning around again, and sure enough, a strong wind blows.

Those present: ...

Was blown dumbfounded by the wind.

Yuan Zong: ...

He would forget that he was rendered speechless several times by this thin girl during the short communication time.

Are young people nowadays so slippery?

It’s just—Niu Zheng asked everyone’s doubts: “Paper? What is papermaking?”

Lin Lan answered quite easily: "Paper is a kind of writing material similar to silk, which is thinner and lighter than silk, and the cost is lower. Abandon our bait."

Otherwise, how could that guy say without the lower limit of integrity, I hope you are his son!

Although it was taken advantage of by him, but also because of this sentence, everyone who wanted to kill him became very cautious.

What Lin Lan said was too lighthearted and realistic, it didn't make Niu Zheng feel angry, and it didn't matter if he didn't, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

He always thought that the Anguo Guild took such good care of Shanzheng because of his affinity with him, and because he and his sister had saved him many times. He never thought that his sister would do these things behind his back.

Just like before, whenever he thinks he has done well enough, his sister will always let him discover how naive he is!

He couldn't imagine what he could do without his sister.

Helpless, Niu Zheng finally chose to pick up his spear, turned and left, pulled the horse, got on the horse, swung the whip, and ran out.

Shanrou gestured to Lin Lan, and followed closely behind on horseback.

Lin Lan didn't understand, yesterday it was a man chasing a woman, but today it's a woman chasing a man, what happened.

Brother's rebellious youth has come?

Fortunately, she has an understanding sister Qin Qing.

"Yesterday, because Zheng'er saw Shan Rou holding a large bag of poison, he asked her if she wanted to ruin everything about Shan Zheng." Qin Qing said with emotion: "It turns out that Zheng'er knew that Shan Rou used to be an assassin. For a woman, Shanrou is really not easy. Compared with her, Qing is too narrow."

Lin Lan's eyes widened: "It's actually because of this quarrel, I thought it was because of..."

King Qi bestowed a marriage yesterday, so the two little guys had a quarrel at night.

"Pfft..." Lin Lan's expression was too detailed, Qin Qing couldn't help laughing: "Qing originally thought so, but I just found out today."

"The killer organization that adopted Shanrou, that is, Shanrou's lord and master, seems to be thinking about Shanzheng's secret recipe. After arriving in Qi State, they used their organization's secret method to issue instructions for Shanrou to find a chance to prescribe the medicine. Shanrou was struggling with how to confess to us, but Zheng'er recklessly exposed it..."

After she said this, Lin Lan connected the events before and after.

Just as Shanrou wanted to confess, she was exposed by Niu Zheng. It is estimated that her younger brother's tone and words were not very friendly, so Shanrou slapped him angrily, and was about to go to her lord. Solve the follow-up.

But it happened that her lord poisoned Yuanzong.

Niu Zheng arrived...

Together with her, they fought with the lord, and in the end Xiaogu got in, making her discover that her lord and the Sword Master of Qi were the same person.

Lin Lan: ...

There is no romantic color at all!

"What happened to that Sword Master Cao Qiudao?"

Qin Qing replied: "Senior Yuanzong woke up and pleaded for mercy. His martial arts have been abolished and handed over to the Mo family." Sighing: "People's hearts and human nature in troubled times are really complicated."

Lin Lan really wanted to say that even if it wasn't a troubled time, people's hearts and human nature would not be so simple, but she still decided not to interrupt the instant sigh of this talented woman.

Interrupt, she will definitely tell you her feelings in detail, don't interrupt, she will be able to think about it by herself in a while.

Lin Lan has experience.

Sure enough, Qin Qing quickly changed the subject: "Thinking about it now, Qing is very envious of Zheng'er and Shanrou. They are both people who have the world in their hearts, can afford it, and let it go. Let me understand that in troubled times Among them, the personal relationship between children is the least important compared to the great love in the world! Unlike Qing, who can only immerse himself in the past and cannot detach himself from it."

"Before today, Qing thought that Xiaolan, like Qing, was just a person who wanted to find a quiet haven in this troubled world and live his life without any disputes."

Lin Lan remained silent: No, your judgment is very correct!

"But after hearing what you and Senior Yuanzong said today, Qingcai knew that it was wrong. Lan is also a strange woman who has the world in mind, and she is willing to give such amazing things as papermaking to Duke An without hesitation. It enables people all over the world to quickly use paper."

Do you want to interrupt?Lin Lan felt that Qin Qing's misunderstanding was a bit deep!

"The power of the Qin State has already surpassed the other countries. Only the papermaking technology in the Qin State can make the other countries flock to it. Only the Qin State can guarantee that the paper will not be coveted by others after it is produced. But if all the countries If you want to obtain papermaking skills, you must compete with Qin State... Although it may make the situation more chaotic, the role of paper will be spread to the ears of every insightful person at the fastest speed, and play to it The energy it deserves! Qing really admires such a strategy!"

Lin Lan: ...

You like to think so, so be it!

"So, Qing has already decided that I want to learn from you. After I get the paper, I will copy books from various countries with my godfather, and then sum up a set of books that are most suitable for children and teenagers. Let people in the world, as long as they want to be with you May all be able to read and write!"

What a great ambition, and Lin Lan absolutely believes that this sister is fully capable of this!

According to these days, Niu Zheng and Shanrou used the textbooks she edited to teach the literacy efficiency of the staff in Shanzheng.

Holding her hand tightly, he encouraged her: "Sister Qin Qing is definitely fine, I believe in you! In the future, Sister Qin Qing will definitely be a master who will be sung through the ages!"

Lin Lan did speak admonishingly.

Because of her intrusion, she, the Great Qin Princess, Great Qin Empress Shanrou, and Great Qin Emperor Shi have become characters that have been sung throughout the ages, and because they played indelible contributions in the establishment of the first feudal dynasty.

It has raised the status of women in later generations by more than one class. Because of these three insurmountable milestones, patriarchs who wanted to suppress women in the past dynasties were photographed by many tough ladies as soon as they took the lead.

Want to keep us women in the backyard with three obediences and four virtues? !

Not to mention the door, there are no windows, and the dog hole will be sealed for you!

Can this be regarded as a gratifying existence?

perhaps!

When Qin Qing interrupted her like this, it was already evening when Niu Zheng came back. Lin Lan, who was dozing off in her tent, saw her brother, ran in quickly, and made something he hadn't done for a long time. Actions.

The whole person nestled in Lin Lan's arms, pretending not to move.

Well, with Xiaogu's intimidating eyes, he just hugged and refused to let go.

Lin Lan was entangled by him and couldn't move her hands. She didn't know why he was going crazy, so she just lowered her head and tapped his chin lightly on the top of his head a few times: "What's wrong?"

Niu Zheng didn't speak, and hugged him even tighter, but Lin Lan felt her clothes were wet. Her brother, who was fearless, actually cried? !

but……

Why!

Lin Lan went crazy!

It took a while for Niu Zheng to calm down: "Sister... I will do my best obediently, please don't leave me, please!"

"I..." When did I want to leave you?

Lin Lan suddenly couldn't say this.

Ahem, it seems that her original plan was really to let her younger brother be able to stand on his own, then leave and find a place where no one is around to recuperate and practice.

It's just that the task of the current plane is to protect him, the future emperor, so the plan has just changed.

So the exported words become: "Don't worry, I won't leave."

By your side, there are merits and beliefs to earn.

Unexpectedly, Niu Zheng, who would get a positive promise, couldn't react stupidly. He raised his head and revealed his red eyes: "Really? Sister, you won't lie to me?"

"I won't lie to you." Lin Lan promised again, but: "How can you tell that I want to leave!"

Niu Zheng puffed up his face: "Obviously there is, you almost put it on your face that you need to learn things quickly and get rid of trouble!"

Lin Lan stared: "Can you understand what I wrote on my face?"

I can understand that I have already withdrawn!

However, she finally understood why her clever younger brother always liked to skip school.

"Don't worry, even if you have a wife and don't recognize your sister, I won't leave, okay!" Lin Lan still reminded this bear boy: "If you don't let go, I don't know what will happen."

Xiaogu's sharp mouth had already appeared in front of Niu Zheng, barely touching the bridge of his nose.

"Guru..."

let go!And get out!

Niu Zhengcai found out that he had done something embarrassing, so he quickly let go, scratched his head and smirked: "Hey..."

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

A few fluffs fell, and Niu Zheng's figure had disappeared.

"Guru..."

Xiaogu nodded in satisfaction.

You are so naive to think that I will let you go just because you are giggling.

Lin Lan looked at the swaying curtain and the parabolically shrinking figure: ...

Taking a bath in this weather shouldn't be a bad thing, right?

Go to sleep.

After this episode.

Shanzheng officially separated the two teams. Niu Zheng's team, as the main team, still set out for Chu State according to the original plan, while Shanrou counted a group of personnel, supplies, took people, turned around, and joined Yuanzong , set off towards Zhao Guo.

Lin Lan watched Niu Zheng and Shanrou's snappy parting, and began to worry about whether her younger brother would be able to find a wife smoothly.

In order to win back the favorability of the future sister-in-law for her younger brother, she shamelessly brought out a line from a poem among the well-known and unknown friends of the masters: "If the two loves last for a long time, how can they be in the day and night, kind and tender?" , I believe in you, and Zheng'er... also believes in you!"

What they got in exchange was Shanrou's hellish eyes, and He Niuzheng's helpless expression looking up at the sky.

Yuanzong looked at Niu Zheng with a murderous look in his eyes, don't be too obvious with that look at a weasel!

Zou Yan and Qin Qing snickered unkindly.

Afterwards, the two parties communicated through letters, using the paper generously provided by An Guogong.

Lin Lan learned that Shanrou rescued a strange man who fell from the sky while chasing an assassin who stole the secret recipe.

The first sentence asked: "Where is this place? Has Qin Shihuang ascended the throne?"

The man's character and ability are quite good, and Master Yuanzong taught him martial arts and swordsmanship in a good mood.

It's just that his accent is quite strange, and he always asks her about Mr. Shanzheng. Shanrou feels that although he has no bad intentions, he is just asking about Lin Lan's existence.

What almost didn't scare Lin Lan was that Shan Rou asked in the letter: "Xiao Lan, do you know where is Xiangjiang Special Administrative Region?"

Lin Lan: ...

She really knows!
