The reason why the Changsun family attacked the pencil was not because Changsun Wuji and Shilin stood together, but because the Changsun family saw that the pencil business was out of control, and in the whole world, only Chen Chu could make pencils, and only Chen Chu had the money How can one make money alone, so they want to ban pencils.
The folk anti-pencil momentum is huge!
In the middle of the court, Changsun Wuji and others also came forward one after another, asking His Majesty Li Er to issue an order to ban pencils.

in the backyard.
With a bitter expression on his face, Zhu Neng said, "Boss, we have already hoarded a large batch of pencils. Since a few days ago, we have not been able to sell even a single pencil... In the long run, we will lose money..."
Chen Chu frowned and said, "Those people from Shilin, are they really so powerful? How can they make our pencils unsold?"
Kong Yingda held a chicken leg, touched the oil stain on his mouth, and said, "Boy, you underestimate scholars, scholars, farmers, businessmen, scholars are ranked first, and people all over the world will believe what scholars say..."
Everything is inferior!
Only reading is high!
This is the reality of this era.
Many people naturally think that scholars are superior to others.
There is a kind of blind worship for scholars.
Now, people in Slam think that pencils are evil weapons.
Merchants and common people naturally believed it.
Chen Chu smiled and said, "So, these guys will make the pencil disappear completely?"
Kong Yingda nodded: "It's not impossible!"
Chen Chu's smile suddenly became cold, "Okay, they forced me to take action...then don't blame me for being rude..."
Kong Yingda took a bite of the chicken, looked at Chen Chu, and said nothing.
Because he knows that no matter what this kid does, someone will protect him and everything will be fine.
……
The state religion of the Tang Dynasty was Taoism.
Therefore, in Chang'an City, various Taoist temples can be seen everywhere.
In the west of the city, there is a very lively Taoist temple called the Three-day Temple.
The incense is flourishing here, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going.
I saw that the gate of Santian Temple is made of brass, which is very dazzling from a distance.
The reason why this place is so lively is because the temple master has an extraordinary background.
At this moment, in a courtyard in the Taoist temple where outsiders cannot set foot.
An old man with nearly a hundred hair and beard, dressed in a gray Taoist robe, with a fairy-like appearance, was staring at a group of Taoist priests who were busy.
On the ground, on the steps, there were pencils scattered here and there, most of which had been dissected.
The Taoist priests were sweating profusely.
Finally, a Taoist stood up, his hands were as black as charcoal, and he said: "Master, it still doesn't work, I'm waiting, I still don't understand how this pencil is made..."
The old Taoist frowned and said, "It's really weird. Could it be that this pencil fell from the sky? Why can't we make it..."
The Taoist priests all looked at each other in blank dismay.
The old Taoist waved his hand: "That's all, you keep thinking about it, when you figure it out, there will be a lot of rewards..."
"Yes!"
The Taoists continued to study.
The old Taoist walked out of the courtyard, but saw a disciple running towards him, saying, "Master, today, the Confucianism sect has started attacking our Taoist sect again."
The old man's face suddenly changed.
Confucianism and Taoism have had conflicts since ancient times.
But after the Tang Dynasty, the contradictions became even worse.
The reason is that after the Qin Dynasty, the previous dynasties were dominated by the Confucian family, and the Taoist family could only live in seclusion in the mountains and fields.
When he arrived in the Tang Dynasty, in order to find a good ancestor for himself, Li Yuan asked someone to concoct an ancestor Li Er, who was the founder of Taoism.
Therefore, the Tang Dynasty regarded Taoism as the state religion.
This time, Confucianism quit.
Confucianism and Taoism attack each other.
But in recent years, Confucianism has increasingly gained the upper hand.
The old Taoist said sadly: "Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer officials in my Taoist sect in the court, and the influence is not as good as before...this...what to do!"
Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice from beside him: "Now, there is an opportunity, and it depends on whether you can grasp it, Master Yuan."
"Huh? Who's talking?" The old man was startled suddenly.
He turned his head, and saw a young man in white coming out from behind the rockery, handsome and unrestrained.
The little Taoist pointed at the other party and said in surprise, "You...you are Chen Chu?"
Chen Chu?
The old Taoist glanced at Chen Chu and asked, "How do you know that he is Chen Chu?"
The little Taoist said: "Master, everyone in the world says that Chen Chu is the most unique and beautiful man in the world. Look at him, he is so handsome, who else is it?"
The old way: "..."
Chen Chu stepped forward, cupped his hands at the old Taoist priest, and said, "Master Yuan, I am Chen Chu. I take the liberty to visit. Excuse me!"
The old man asked in surprise: "Do you know the old man?"
Chen Chu said with a smile: "Yuan Tiangang, the name of Master Yuan is unknown to everyone. Even His Majesty often invites you into the palace for divination. A person like you seems to be hanging in the sky." Sun, everyone in the world can feel your radiance, just like the most popular brand in Pingkangfang, everyone in the world wants to sleep with you..."
"Cough cough cough..."
Yuan Tiangang coughed violently.
What a mess.
The previous sentence sounded like human speech, but the latter sentence was outrageous.
He said: "The old man knows you!"
"Oh?"
Chen Chu was a little surprised.
Yuan Tiangang said: "I heard that you can excel in martial arts?"
Chen Chu said modestly: "It's just a false name, it's all wrongly praised by others."
Yuan Tiangang stared at Chen Chu's small body, and asked, "Do you dare to compete with the old man?"
Chen Chu waved his hands hastily: "This is not good..."
Chen Chu's thinking is, once you're old, I'll break you, how can this be good.
Seeing this, Yuan Tiangang thought that Chen Chu was really a vain name, so he strengthened his determination to compete in martial arts.
"Young man, don't babble, come on, let the old man see how much you weigh..." Yuan Tiangang took a horoscope step and gestured towards Chen Chu.
Seeing this, Chen Chu had no choice but to bite the bullet and compete.
He stood opposite Yuan Tiangang, with a very angry expression on his face.
He knew that all Taoists were masters of cultivation, and this old man looked extremely weak, but he might be a ruthless character like Zhang Sanfeng.
Therefore, he dare not be careless.
I only heard Yuan Tiangang say: "Come on..."
"excuse me!"
Chen Chu rushed forward and punched out.
boom.
It hit Yuan Tiangang's nose.
Yuan Tiangang fell straight on the ground, his body twitching.
Then, I saw Yuan Tiangang's two nostrils spraying blood like a fountain.
……
Chapter 175 So You Are My Long-Lost Junior Brother
Seeing this, Chen Chu panicked immediately.
He hurriedly shouted: "Damn, old man, you don't follow the rules, you even touch porcelain!"
Ugh!
Still too young indeed.
I was fooled!
In future generations, if you meet such an old man, you will take a detour.
Chen Chu thought that Yuan Tiangang would rely on him, and then dozens of Taoist priests rushed out from around to surround him.
Who knew, Yuan Tiangang stood up abruptly, covered his nose with his right hand, and pointed to his nose with his left hand: "Young man, you...you don't talk about martial arts... how can you make the first move!"
Chen Chu said speechlessly: "Old Yuan, you called me here!"
Yuan Tiangang said angrily: "Just... Even so, you should stop it. We are a martial arts competition, not a life-and-death fight. How can we make a deadly move?"
Chen Chu: "..."
Blame me?
At this time, a few Taoist priests ran in and saw Yuan Tiangang's face covered with blood. They were shocked and asked, "Master, what happened?"
Yuan Tiangang glanced at Chen Chu and said, "It's nothing, hurry up, help me down quickly..."
Then, Yuan Tiangang was rushed away by several disciples.
Chen Chu stood where he was, a little messy.
Fortunately, Yuan Tiangang wanted to save face and didn't let people besiege him.
Chen Chu thought for a while and found a place to sit down.
……
After a moment.
Yuan Tiangang changed into a Taoist robe and walked back.
His face was a little pale.
Must be bleeding too much.
The nose was swollen high and became a big nose.
Chen Chu laughed: "Say, Lao Yuan, Taoist people always like to call themselves Ox-nosed Old Daoist. Now, you can be regarded as a real Ox-nosed Old Daoist. If you don't believe me, go to the pond to have a look..."
Yuan Tiangang walked to the edge of the pond and looked at the reflection in the water, his face turned livid with anger.
He turned his head, gave Chen Chu a hard look, and said, "Boy, you came here today to watch old jokes, don't you? Hurry up..."
Chen Chu shook his head: "I won't go, I'm here to help you."
"help me?"
Yuan Tiangang was furious: "That's how you helped me..."
Whoever comes to help someone will beat him up first.
Yuan Tiangang was very angry.
