And he was dressed casually, dressed in sackcloth, and open, sitting barefoot on the ground. It looks very casual, but from the eyes of his disciples, you can see how much respect and love they have for their teacher. Although he is very casual, he does not give people any feeling that he can be despised in any way.

He is like a peerless master, and every move has that touching demeanor. It can be said that he is not unrevealed, but has reached the state of returning to the basics.

After reading a volume of "Zhou Li", the scene fell silent.

"If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me, and I'll answer it for you." The teacher said.

"I have a question that I want to ask the Master, but I am a little embarrassed to say it." A young disciple said.

"You ask, as long as it's what you think in your heart, there's nothing to be embarrassed about." The Master said.

"We study every day, and to be honest, I'm getting a little tired of it. I wish I could have a good rest and a place to rest. The disciple said.

"Hahaha......" Hearing this disciple's question, the rest of the students began to laugh. Wang Tian also felt that his question was a bit strange, which was a typical disgust with learning. However, he boldly said it, which is also very commendable, even in the 21st century school, students dare not say such things directly.

I wonder how this master will answer, will he reprimand him like a teacher in the 21st century? Wang Tian was very curious.

"Don't laugh at him." The Master said, "Actually, each of you has this idea in your heart, but you buried this idea in your heart and didn't say it. ”

Hearing that instead of reprimanding this disciple, the master praised him, and the rest of the disciples stopped talking and laughing.

"Then the Master means that we can rest?" The disciple who asked the question just now said with a happy face.

"Not really." The Master said, "When a man is alive, there is no place to rest." ”

"Isn't it tiring for us to live, then?" The disciple said.

"Yes. If a person lives to rest, then what is the point of his life? Do you see the tomb, so high and upright, it is a good place to rest? The Master said.

Hearing him explain this, Wang Tian thought so. His phrase, translated into modern terms, is that life is in motion. This principle is also very much in line with the laws of nature, tigers will starve to death if they don't hunt for food, and antelopes will become their prey if they are not always vigilant. Life is more complicated in the world, so a person can't relax for a moment.

"So to speak. Death is also very useful? The gentleman can get rest inside, while the villain has to be tamed inside. The disciple continued.

"It seems that you have understood some of the truths of life and death." The Master praised, "But most people only know the joy of being alive, not the pain of being alive. We all know the fatigue of aging, but we don't know the comfort of aging. There are also people who think that death is an abominable thing, but they do not know that death is the best rest. Yan Zi once said, 'It is very good that there has been such a thing as death since ancient times, because the gentleman can be rested, and the villain can be tamed.' ”

Hear the explanation of the Master's words. Heaven knew that this master had now comprehended the way of death. The so-called death is the disappearance of a person in a certain world, and basically everyone cannot avoid it. Death can give the gentleman a rest and the villain tamed. Other words. Or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather.

After death, when you go to the underworld, you will be judged by the judges of the underworld, and the gentleman and the villain will get different opportunities. The gentleman enters the higher planes. It can be better for cultivation, while the villain will go to hell or be tortured. Of course. He wouldn't say that directly. Because among his disciples, not all of them have any qualifications that are suitable for cultivation.

"Can I ask the Master about something?" At this moment, another disciple stood up and said.

"There's something you can say." The master waved his hand at him and motioned for him to sit down and speak.

"I heard that the king of Chuzhuang was seriously ill and made people divination, and the diviner said that he had offended the god of the Yellow River. King Zhuang's doctor asked him to use cattle and sheep and other sacrifices to worship the god of the Yellow River. But King Zhuang said, I want to go to sacrifice can only go to sacrifice to the gods in our country, the Yellow River is not in the Chu State, so I know that I am not offending the god of the Yellow River. Three days later, he was cured, but what was going on? The disciple asked.

"There is also a reason why King Chu Zhuang can become the overlord, he knows how to use etiquette to control himself, and he knows where his duty lies. Things related to himself can be consistent inside and out, so he can become the hegemon. The Master said, "Not sacrificing to other gods is what a person should do. ”

"I see." After listening to the master's explanation, this disciple finally understood.

And listening to his words, Wang Tian also understood a lot of truths. During this period, there were many gods, and some gods would also protect the local people in order to gain people's faith. And the gods of other sides will never blame the monarchs of other places, because they will also have scruples.

"Anyone outside the door is listening, please come in and tell us." At this time, the master looked out the door. His disciples also followed his gaze towards the place where Wang Tian was.

Wang Tian knew that he had been discovered, so he walked in generously. This master's name is Kong Qiu, that is, one of the three saints, the 'human saint', with his strength, of course, he can know where Wang Tian is.

Check out the properties!

Name: Kong Qiu. Age: 67 years old, gender: male. Level: 300.

Qi and blood: 20W-20W.

Attack: 25W-30W.

Ability: Unknown. This NPC is too high to detect its skills. Since Wang Tian has no ill will towards him, he is an NPC in the system, not a 'humanoid monster'.

Wang Tian checked his information by the way, and the results surprised him. He actually reached the height of level 300, and he deserved to be one of the three saints. It is enough to be shocked that he has such power before he has become a true god. He's here to give lectures to these people, but of course he won't talk about anything about cultivation.

He only talked about some principles of life, but even these principles are very useful to these disciples. The so-called Taoism is divided into two aspects: 'Tao' and 'Shu'. The teachings he preached belonged to the category of 'Tao', while he did not speak of 'art'. Everyone can comprehend the Tao and tell it in words, but the art is different, and to learn the art requires not only talent, but also a certain amount of chance.

"Join the Master." Wang Tian said.

"Who are you?" The man Sage Conchu asked.

"I just happened to be passing by and heard someone preaching here, so I came to take a look." Wang Tian said.

"In that case, you may sit down beside the people." Kongqiu said.

"Okay." Wang Tian said, and after finishing speaking, Wang Tian casually found a place to sit down. He wanted to ask him questions about the arts, but in public, these questions could not be asked. Since he is preaching now, it is better to listen to it for himself. Listening to the preaching of the human saint is only good for oneself, and there is no harm in it.

"I have come to listen to your sermon, and I have something to ask Master." At this time, a disciple who looked like he was more than ten years old stepped forward to speak. Many of these disciples would ask the Master if they had something on their minds, and Confucius would give them satisfactory answers.

"Okay, you can ask." Kongqiu said.

"Is it filial piety for children to obey the orders of their parents, and is it true that courtiers obey the orders of the monarch to be loyal?" The young disciple asked. When he asked, he expected the Master's answer, but Confucius did not answer him.

"Is it filial piety for children to obey the orders of their parents, and is it true that courtiers obey the orders of the monarch to be loyal?" At this time, the young disciple asked again. He thought that Kongqiu had not heard clearly, so he asked in a louder voice. But Conciu still did not answer him.

Then the disciple asked a third time.

"So what do you think of yourself?" At this time, the Master finally spoke. Wang Tian also knew the reason why he did this, because this issue was too sensitive. This is the era of absolute monarchy, and if he says no, he is dissatisfied with the monarchy. Although he has now become one of the saints, he still has scruples in many aspects.

"I believe that the obedience of children to their fathers is filial piety, and the obedience of courtiers to the monarch is loyalty." The young disciple thought for a moment and said.

This is the topic of loyalty, patriotism, and filial piety, and Wang Tian wants to know how he answers. Of course, Wang Tian also had his own opinions on this issue, but he wanted to know what this saint would say.

"It's really a villain's insight, it seems that you haven't understood the truth yet." The Master said, "In the beginning, there were four courtiers in a great country who dared to speak out, so that the territory of their country would not be reduced. If there are three courtiers in a medium-sized country who dare to speak out, there will be no danger to the community. If a small country has two courtiers who dare to speak out, the king will not be overthrown because of hatred between him and the people...... If a father has children who dare to speak out and advise, he will not do things that violate etiquette, and people with lofty ideals and friends who dare to speak up will not do things that are immoral. Therefore, obedience is not filial piety and loyalty. ”

"So what is true filial piety and loyalty?" The young disciple asked again. (To be continued......)
