Yin Xi frowned and smiled at Lu Di's answer, obviously he agreed, but also opposed and doubted. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Childe listens to you, what I perceive is art, not Tao"

"Sorcerer, Fang Ye! Therefore, it is called a monk, a Taoist, and a Taoist, and a Taoist. Today's son's words are beautiful, and his words are evil. Just like the big pear tree behind me, I want beautiful fruits but only fertilize and kill insects for it, in my opinion, it is really to abandon the way and cultivate, and abandon the roots and raise the end! ”

Lu Di understood what Yin Xi meant, he disagreed with his exaggerated strength and individual efforts, but he did not deny that his view had drawbacks: "When Tu was in Qufu, Lu State, he used to live in Tu's aunt Jing Jiang's house, and she planted many gourds in the backyard of her house."

"Tu has a cousin, named his father-in-law Wenbo, one day Tu saw that there was a worm on the gourd vine, Tu said to his father-in-law Wenbo, cousin, there is a bug on the gourd vine, it should be killed"

"Who would have thought that my cousin would not be the same thing: brother, I want a gourd and not a worm"

"Later, the gourd vine was eaten up by insects, and no gourd came out"

"Therefore, Tu believes that the Tao is to be rebellious for people, just like the worms that naturally grow from the gourd vine, if we don't kill the worms, we won't get what we want."

"Sir, do you still think that the Tao is more noble than the arts, and the root is more important than the end?" Lu Di finally asked rhetorically.

Yin Xi fell into deep thought after listening to Lu Di's words, obviously he was moved by Lu Di's words, and even had an epiphany.

"Childe, do you think there is good and evil in the Tao?" Yin Xi spilled all the pear blossoms in his hand, and since the spring breeze, they floated into the air, and then rolled up and flew down the mountain.

"There is no good or evil in the Tao, and people give good and evil," Lu Di replied.

"What's the explanation?" Yin Xi became more and more interested in Lu Di, and he found that Lu Di's views were the same as those of the master and himself, and the differences were often the confusion between himself and the master.

Lu Di pointed to the red sun that was slowly setting and said: "Tai Chi has yin and yang, such as night and day, it is not intended, but people paint black and white."

"People love the daytime because it is bright and the most glorious time of their lives"

"People hate the night, because it often hides covetousness and terror"

"But what people don't know is that the night is the happiest paradise for the beasts, and when the beasts are happy, the people are not happy, so good and evil are judged by people."

This was agreed by Yin Xi, and then he thought of something: "Childe, you talked about the technique before, so what kind of technique does Childe practice?" ”

Lu Di said: "When I was young, I once listened to Confucius and Lao Guolao debating under the apricot altar (see Chapter 019 for details), Confucius said: The ultimate in Taoism is the warmth and coldness of the world and the firewood, rice, oil and salt of the people."

"But Tu thinks that it is not the ultimate of the Tao but the ultimate of art, oh, it is indeed the ultimate of human art."

"So Gongzi will not be able to become a saint in the future, but can only become a mortal monarch," Yin Xi suddenly sighed.

Lu Di was silent when he heard this, the people of the world said that he was the reincarnation of a saint, but they were destined to be disappointed, because he had too many predestined and destined encounters, which were destined to force him to be despicable and to the so-called Ming Jun.

Everyone, whether they admit it or not, has a servility in their body, and this servility affects you to go to a dark life.

Don't say that it is the other party's force that domesticated you into a slave, you have to stay alive, this is just a hypocritical excuse, just like saying that a dark horse is not a horse.

"Childe, cultivation is actually a long road, this road needs to be explored little by little, in the process of exploration is full of hardships and thorns, can you endure it, can you persevere?" Yin Xi saw that Lu Di seemed to be thinking something in a daze, so he said again.

"The human heart is long, and when encountering thorns and hardships, it will naturally be painful and retreat, but if you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach thousands of miles, and if you don't accumulate small streams, you can't merge into rivers and seas... Throwing stones into the water, no waves, but also ripples! ”

"I believe that as long as I do it little by little and endure it, I will not give up at the last moment when my body can still move, I believe that as long as the ideal does not die, I can persevere."

Seeing Lu Di's resolute expression, Yin Xi was very moved.

"Sir, what is the relationship between Tao and people?"

"A man can contain the Tao, but the Tao is not a man! Man is born in response to the Tao, so he is part of the Tao, and he can attain the Tao. ”

"How to attain enlightenment?"

"Two words, shun and clear"

(Among the top ten saints of the pre-Qin Dynasty, Yin Xiguiqing is not apocryphal)

……

"What is the difference between the way of the gentleman and the way of the old country and the old Laizi?"

"The Master's words are one for two and three, the way of Lao Laizi is one and five, and my way is three and four and three thousand"

……

Lu Di and Yin Xi debated from morning until it was dark, and the two were reluctant to go down the mountain.

After going down the mountain, Yin Xi asked Lu Di and his party to dress up as their entourage and then went out, and Lu Di thanked him and said goodbye.

Watching Lu Di and his party leave in the moonlight, Yin Xi fell into fluttering contemplation, and the moonlight shone on his body, chic as a fairy.

What Lu Di didn't know was that after Yin Xi finished arguing with him again, he hung up the seal and left.

As for Yin Xi's destination, like Lao Tzu, it is the lush southwest.

With the help of Yin Xi, Lü Di left Hangu Pass, bypassed Michi, and directly crossed the Great River (Yellow River) into the territory of the Jin Kingdom.

The mud of the Jin Kingdom obviously had a dry and cracked smell, which made Lu Di feel very bad.

"I heard that the reason why the Jin Kingdom has dominated the world for a hundred years is because the land is fertile and the people are hardworking, but why is the land of the Jin Kingdom so barren now?" Lu Di looked around at everyone in confusion.

Everyone didn't know how to answer for a while, and Zhang Mengtan seemed to think of something: "Childe, is it related to the way of farming?" ”

Zhang Mengtan's words aroused everyone's doubts, and seeing this, he explained: "In the past, when Gongzi was the commander of Tai'anyi, there was a harm in addition to Tai'an, and that harm was called sandy land."

"Oh, how did Childe get rid of the pest?" Gong Mingyi shouted, this was the first time he had heard of this.

Zhang Mengtan smiled: "That year, in order to extinguish the tiger pest of Mount Tai, Gongzi called on the people to go up the mountain to hunt tigers, because the night was dark, Gongzi and the people slept under the mountain, there was wind at night, and some people accidentally let the flames splash into the dry grass, and when everyone realized, the fire had burned up the mountain."

"I've heard about this," it was Yan Ke who spoke, and he could only hear him say: "The fire burned Mount Tai to ashes, and later there was a legend that it was Gongzi who killed the tiger and caused the wrath of the mountain god, so the disaster fell." ”

Zhang Mengtan nodded: "It is precisely because of this that Gongzi was framed by Yangsheng Gongzi, and Gongzi could only turn the tide and use the burned grass and wood ashes to improve the barrenness of the sandy land, and later proved that Gongzi's move was right, and the grain grew better than ever that year."
