Jin Ge Hong's "Hugging Puzi and Fallacies": "The world is sophisticated, and etiquette is declining. Respect Mo Chong, arrogance is customary. ”

Arrogance, a word, refers to a state of mind, containing the meaning of arrogance and emptiness, and is used to describe people's attitudes, expressions, and manners. It also refers to looking down on others and disrespecting people, and is mainly used to describe people's attitudes, which means excessive love for oneself or expecting others to pay attention to their own manifestations, or even seeing oneself as superior to God or other beings.

When an individual is unable to overcome his inner inferiority, and derives an overcompensating superiority to cover up the inferiority complex deep in his heart, it is a manifestation of self-arrogance. Frankly speaking, arrogance is actually an individual's emotional behavior in order to enhance self-worth and overcome the inner inferiority complex, which can increase the motivation to perform well, but it is also easy to show a contemptuous posture and superiority of others.

Arrogance is attributed to the inner feelings of the individual and is divided into two aspects: true pride: the sense of self-worth that accompanies the real experience that accompanies the individual's efforts, and arrogant arrogance, which maintains self-worth through the self-expansion and amplification of the inner self through the self-amplification of the individual's consciousness.

The former makes people full of self-confidence and a sense of efficacy, improves the efficiency of life, and brings more positive interpersonal communication, winning the respect and appreciation of others. The latter is precisely the sense of conceit and arrogance that people hate, which can easily make people step on a position higher than others and dictate to others, lose themselves in the illusion of self-superiority, think that they can dominate others, and reduce the possibility of communicating with others.

The red arrogant mask flew into the range of the Heavenly Demon Sect and was picked up by An Yang of the Heavenly Demon Sect, who was a disciple of the Heavenly Mandate Daoist of the Heavenly Demon Sect and was picked up by the Heavenly Mandate Daoist. The Heavenly Mandate Daoist is not a Demon Emperor, but only the Great Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect, so naturally there are not so many restrictions, so the Heavenly Mandate Daoist often travels in the human world. Once, when traveling in the world, I saw a little beggar, this little beggar is Anyang, Anyang was abandoned by his parents since he was a child, I heard that the person who bought Anyang said that it was because Anyang's mother gave birth to two children, Anyang was their third child, the family was not very wealthy, and the weather was not beautiful at that time, it happened to be a drought, almost all the crops died, and there was almost no harvest at home, with this scene can no longer feed the family.

Some monks who are worried about the world see this scene, they can indeed cast a spell to rain and benefit the people, everything has two sides, just like in the world, if there are good people, there will be bad people, in the eyes of bad people, human life is like a mustard, and they are the most important. They don't care so much, they believe that people should live for themselves, people are not for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, and the demon monks can use human blood to forge their magic weapons and strengthen the power of the magic weapons. After all, these ordinary people were like ants in the eyes of those monks, and even ordinary people in a city could not be the opponent of monks. Because of this reason, the eight major sects and the Xiuxian family signed an agreement in the Human Emperor Palace, except for some specific times, cultivators are not allowed to interfere in mortal affairs, so as not to disturb the balance of the mortal world, if there are cultivators who interfere in mortal affairs and destroy the balance, then they will be jointly executed by the eight major sects.

His parents decided to abandon one in order for the family to survive, just at that time Anyang was sick, which was undoubtedly worse, and gave this family a big trouble that could not even eat, Anyang's parents discussed selling Anyang, to reduce some of the burden on the family, in such a bad environment at that time, selling sons, selling daughters is very common, Anyang was bought by an old man with no heirs in the family with three pieces of broken silver, the other children are healthy, and the sale is more expensive, because Anyang was sick at that time, so it was sold cheaper than ordinary children, and it was natural to go to see Langzhong when he was sickIt costs a lot of money here, so it's sold cheaper than the average child. The old man's family is also very cold, in order to buy Anyang, almost spent all the family's savings, there are only two lonely old people in the family, because they can't give birth to children, they plan to buy one, to inherit the incense, so that they can get old to have a dependence, the old man is Langzhong, the old man will also cure some minor diseases, but the lack of medicinal materials, in order to treat Anyang, go up the mountain to pick herbs for him, Anyang in the care of these two old people, but also gradually recover health, but also slowly grow up, the good times are not long, when Anyang was thirteen years old, these two old people died together, Anyang has no support, in order to buy a coffin for these two old people, and prepare for the funeral, these people need money to support them.

How could Anyang be rich, he could only sell himself to bury his father, Anyang pulled other people's trouser legs again and again, begging others to buy him, there are some good-tempered people, so they won't do anything excessive, sometimes they encounter that kind of bad temper, just give Anyang a kick, Anyang is only thirteen years old, how can he bear the power of adults, Anyang still silently persevered. Anyang knelt in this bazaar for two days, did not eat or drink for the past two days, no one was willing to buy him, after all, Anyang is so small, a lot of heavy work can never be done, and it is necessary to provide food and clothing every day, for this reason, no one has been buying Anyang, no money, the old man's funeral has not been settled, at this time, the Mandate of Heaven Taoist saw this scene, perhaps remembered the tragic experience when he was a child, so he gave this little guy some food, some silver, and helped this little guy bury his parents. Just when the Heavenly Mandate Daoist was about to leave, An Yang knelt down and said to the Heavenly Mandate Daoist: "Benefactor, I know that you are leaving to return to the Taoist Temple, although I am young, I can only sweep the floor, pick up water, and do some small things, I hope the benefactor will not be disgusted, give me a chance to repay the benefactor." The Heavenly Mandate Daoist looked at the young An Yang and remembered that his master had taken him in. asked An Yang if he was willing to worship him as a teacher, and An Yang was naturally willing, and in this way, the Heavenly Mandate Daoist accepted An Yang as an apprentice and brought him back to the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Anyang's talent is average, and the Heavenly Mandate Dao found out when he checked his body, and told Anyang this fact, Anyang knows that his talent is mediocre, and he can't be compared with those talented people in terms of qualifications, Anyang thinks that diligence can make up for his clumsiness, as long as he is willing to spend time, Spend energy, cultivation will naturally not be pulled down, so in the practice is very attentive, others spend twice as much time to practice, but it takes him three times as long to catch up with others, the Heavenly Mandate Daoist knows that the apprentice's talent is like this, and he is not very strict with his apprentice An Yang, but An Yang is strict with himself, and everything is perfect, I hope that the Heavenly Mandate Daoist can pay more attention and care about him. But where is there so much time? In addition, the Heavenly Mandate Daoist is the highest person in the Heavenly Demon Sect's cultivation, although the position of the Demon Emperor has been given to Ye Yu, Ye Yu's cultivation is not high, and many things cannot be handled, and it basically needs to be handled by the Heavenly Mandate Dao person himself, so naturally there is not so much time to spend on apprentices, and apprentices are generally free-range. Since An Yang is an apprentice of the Heavenly Mandate Daoist, his identity and status are extraordinary, and he can basically walk sideways in the Heavenly Demon Sect.

(Free-range: It is to put the child in a free environment, let yourself be the master, do what you want to do, parents do not block or order, although this is said, but parents still have to teach children what to do, what to do, how to do, so, free-range children are actually only a small range, there are time and geographical restrictions!)

Night Rain is the younger brother of Night Star, the current Demon Emperor, became the Demon Emperor at the age of thirteen, although he was supported by the Heavenly Mandate Daoist, but the identity of the Night Rain Demon Emperor is there, usually sitting alone in the lonely hall, very lonely, basically no friends, and later the Heavenly Mandate Taoist accepted Anyang as an apprentice and took him back to the Heavenly Demon Sect, Night Rain has a playmate, Anyang and the Demon Emperor Night Rain happen to be about the same size, the two of them have been together for a long time, often have nothing to say, and are very good friends. Everyone else is hindered by the identity of the two of them, one is the Demon Emperor, and the other is Tianyu's beloved disciple, if there is no certain status, it is really not something they can afford to provoke, in case something is not right, which thing is not handled well, and accidentally makes the two of them unhappy, but it will be a big disaster.

An Yang is very humble and can empathize, so he has a lot more friends than Ye Yu, but Ye Yu basically only has one friend, An Yang, and An Yang is not particularly concerned about other things, as long as it is not involved in his master, he will not interfere, once his master is involved, he will intervene, and then do his best in this matter and prove himself in front of the Heavenly Mandate Dao people.

It is precisely because Anyang cares too much about the views of the Heavenly Mandate Daoist, and the Heavenly Mandate Daoist basically stays in the Demon Emperor Palace every day to deal with things, or goes out to do something, so he has less time to meet with Anyang, and even less time to be alone, and spends most of his time with Yeyu, which makes Anyang very envious, eager to prove himself, and wants the Heavenly Mandate Daoist to praise him and give him more care.

This envy also made Anyang more and more alienated from Ye Yu, he used to come to chat with Ye Yu every day, but now he comes less and less, basically only when the Heavenly Mandate Daoist is in the Demon Emperor Palace, although Ye Yu sees all this in his eyes, Ye Yu thinks that it is not a big deal, it is all some small things, which cannot affect the deep friendship between the two of them. The Heavenly Mandate Daoist had too many things to do all day, and he didn't have time to care about these little things, and he didn't know what his apprentice was thinking.

After Anyang picked up the mask in the back mountain of the Heavenly Demon Sect, he said to himself: "Is this the mask that the master has been looking for? The master said that this kind of mask is a treasure that he has refined, and it is very peculiar, but I just don't know what it does, does it look similar to an ordinary mask? I found it, and I will give it to the master later, and it is another great achievement." ”
