Chapter 396 Teaching
Not only because the other party is his younger brother, but also because Changsun Ji has always felt a little guilty towards Changsun Huang.

Since Changsun Ji was sent out of the capital by him, for so many years, except when he was in Yanzhou, he heard some news, but after he suppressed the main force of the grain army, he sent people to look for it, but it was still a step too late, and he couldn't find it.

Later, after returning to the capital, they have been sending people to look for the trace of Changsun Huang, but after so many years, they have not heard any news. The life and death of Changsun Huang is unknown.

He couldn't find Changsun Huang, and subconsciously transferred his guilt towards Changsun Huang to Changsun Zhi.So for Changsun Zhi, his pampering is much heavier than Gao's.

Changsun Zhi liked to read since he was a child, so his overall performance was more stable than his peers. He was just a child of seven or eight years old, but sometimes he looked like a young adult.

Treating his doting, he is not proud of being petted, on the contrary, he respects his elder brother very much, and follows the etiquette in every word and deed, and rarely oversteps.

"Brother, please read this book. It is said in this book that there was a literati who liked to practice calligraphy very much. Sometimes he practiced to such an extent that he forgot to sleep and eat. His mother brought him a bowl of rice porridge and a steamed bun for lunch."

"As a result, the scholar was too absorbed in the practice. He held the steamed bun in one hand. He originally wanted to eat it with rice porridge, but he didn't want to press the steamed bun into the inkstone directly. One steamed bun was stained with ink and he ate it. Until his mother came to pack his things. At that time, when he reminded him, he realized that he had swallowed a mouthful of ink."

"Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things have always been able to forget food and sleep in their studies, and have no distractions. But brother, when I was studying, I couldn't do this. No matter what I do, I can't do it."

Changsun Ji chuckled lightly and said, "Young brother, you have already achieved this level, but you haven't realized it yourself. Look, isn't it the same as this that you can forget the time when you read a book?"

After finishing speaking, it seemed that Changsun Zhi's mood was a little high, and Changsun Ji went on to say: "But brother Zhi, I want to remind you that this waste of sleep and food is just a state of reading, which shows that people are very serious, but elder brother doesn't think this It is a good habit, whether it is doing things or learning, all things need to be combined with work and rest, and it should be done in moderation, which is the best."

"Besides, you can't read dead books even if you read books. You have to know that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Can you tell me what this sentence means?"

"Brother, don't underestimate me. I am naturally not the kind of bookworm who only knows how to read. This sentence should mean that traveling thousands of miles, experiencing many things, and learning more than reading ten thousand volumes of books."

"Then why is that?"

"Naturally, what you have experienced yourself will have more experience than what you read in the book, and you can learn more."

Changsun Ji smiled and said, "It's pretty good that I can think of these things at this age."

"As the saying goes: "Humanity and sophistication are all knowledge.All kinds of things in this world pay attention to learning, and the old farmer carries the burden and the blacksmith forges iron.When you travel thousands of miles, what you see, hear, and learn along the way is countless knowledge.If you read a travel book, you can also learn a lot, but these things are what others have seen, heard, and learned. Compared with the first type, what you have to learn is much less. "

Changsun Zhi frowned, thought for a moment, raised his head to Changsun Ji and asked, "Brother, although I learned more from traveling thousands of miles than reading thousands of books, it is not without its disadvantages. It takes too much time to travel thousands of miles, but it only takes ten days to read a book of travel notes. If I spend the time of traveling thousands of miles to read all the travel notes, then the knowledge I have learned may not be better than traveling thousands of miles. I have learned very little."

"Besides, people's time is limited, but the knowledge in this world is infinite. As my elder brother said, everything needs to be learned. If I want to learn, I can't finish it in my whole life. So I just need to learn from me. Useful knowledge is fine."

"Haha, not bad, really good. Younger brother, it is very good for you to have your own opinions in doing things and learning. And what you think is also very reasonable. But the meaning of what the elder brother said is not to let you Learn everything. You are right. Your energy is limited. If you want to be broad, you can’t be fine. If you want to be fine, you can’t be broad. That’s not what I’m talking about. But I want to tell you that to learn, you should not only read books, but also know how to practice, how to associate, and how to get to the bottom of it.”

"Just look at the short story on this side. You only see the state of the scholar who wasted his time on learning. Can you see anything else?"

Changsun Zhi frowned and thought about it, but soon shook his head in distress.

Changsun Ji smiled and continued: "What I said before is knowledge in everything and everywhere, not just talking, if you want to achieve what others can't, then see what others see in doing things." something that can’t be reached.”

"This scholar dipped steamed buns into ink to eat. What does this mean? Apart from the state of the scholar who forgot to sleep and eat, there is one more thing, that is, this ink is not inedible. If the scholar is not holding steamed buns but brushes, he will be fine if he eats it in his mouth." Even if he forgets to sleep and eat, he will react."

"Thinking of this, you have to think again, since ink can be eaten, why don't ordinary people eat ink? Since ink can be eaten, what is ink made of?"

After asking, Changsun Ji looked at Changsun Zhi, waiting for his answer.

Changsun Zhi raised his head and thought about it carefully, and soon his eyes lit up, he turned around and walked to the table, put his finger into the inkstone beside him, and then stuffed his finger into his mouth.

But just tasted the ink, Changsun Zhi's small face wrinkled into a ball, he spit two mouthfuls of jet-black saliva into the open space, then raised his face, frowned, and said slightly annoyed: " Big brother is playing tricks, this person doesn’t eat ink, so of course ink is not good to eat, there are so many reasons, you’ve got me involved.”

The posture of the eldest grandson Zhixiao was broken in an instant, with a small face wrinkled, very cute.

Changsun Ji looked at Changsun Zhi's mouth stained black with ink, and couldn't help grinning. Amidst Changsun Zhi's face full of resistance, he stretched out his hand to pinch Changsun Zhi's cheek, and wiped away Changsun Zhi's frown .Then he chuckled and said: "You are a little kid, you are a little adult when you have nothing to do, you are not cute at all. How good it is now, and also, don't frown in the future, you like to frown at such a young age, you are already old before you grow up .”
