Chapter 114: Cherish Life

"He's not convinced! disobey the king. He is encouraging the world to oppose the king and fight against the king, and he wants to rebel! ”

Under the podium, in the crowd, there was a stir.

"That's it! The principle and principle that all people abide by in the world are to help each other, to be united, to be good, to obey the king's commands, and to obey the laws issued by the king. But he! It's just a dime, and it's eloquent! ”

"What did he say? He Yang Zhu obviously clamoured others not to obey the king's orders, and not to obey and obey the laws promulgated by the king. He himself could not name a specific standard for governing the world. What did he say? How do you govern the world, how do you govern the mind, you name your way? ”

"He called the Taoist 'rule by doing nothing' hahaha!" The person next to him said hecklingly. After saying that, he laughed.

Needless to say, these people are here to make a fuss.

Hui Shi and Song Yu were drilling around in the crowd. Wherever anyone spoke, they stood there and listened. They continue to listen when they feel it makes sense, and they walk away when they feel it doesn't make sense or can't understand it.

After Yang Zhu finished explaining why he "didn't pull out a hair", he took Zhuang Zhou, Tianya Nameless, and the man in black back to his residence.

He was used to arguing off the podium. Let these people make a noise! Naturally, there will be talented people who understand things to argue with these people, and the truth is more and more discerning, and they are not afraid of being smeared!

Yu Huali also left with his disciples, ignoring the arguments under the podium. After listening to Yang Zhu's explanation, he was completely convinced. Taoism is the one who really analyzes things thoroughly.

If you want to rule the world, you must first cure the heart!

Even if you make the cruelest and most comprehensive laws to bind others, they will not obey them. Opposite! Only will resist! They can obey on the surface and stay alive, but behind the scenes they are fighting!

There are policies above, and there are countermeasures below!

And Taoism! Let's not talk about governing the world, only talk about people's hearts, and only talk about the essence of human nature. First analyze the essence of human beings clearly, understand yourself clearly, and then talk about governing the world.

The Tao Te Ching says: Those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are clear. The winner is powerful, and the self-winner is strong. Those who are content are rich, and those who are forced have ambitions. Those who do not lose their place will live for a long time, and those who die will not die.

Those who know others are wise, and those who can see others clearly can be regarded as wise. Those who know themselves know it, and if they can see themselves clearly, they can be clear! Bright! Got it! Thorough! If you can see the essence of human beings clearly, you can truly understand it!

And the situation is often like this: you can see others clearly, but you can't see yourself clearly, let alone the essence of people.

Selfishness is the essence of human nature, the essence of all things! This is the result of analysis from the perspective of people, and only by recognizing the essence of human beings can we treat the mind in a targeted manner.

And those who argue under the podium, they don't dare to face themselves, they don't dare to face their true hearts. Don't dare, don't want to admit that you're selfish! They don't talk to you about the nature of human nature, they don't talk to you about selfishness, they just jump over and talk about governing the world.

They believe that if they admit that human nature is selfish, and everyone is selfish, the society will be in chaos. There will be no cohesion in this society, and the people's hearts will be weakened, which will not be conducive to the rule of kings.

There are no princes and kings, no kingdoms, and those who eat and drink in the institutions of the king lose their superiority and suffer as much as the people.

So! They used the king, the power given to them by the king, and the people who did not know the truth, to ban Taoism!

I let you mess with people's hearts, I let you mess up society, I let you smash my job, I have studied hard for more than ten years, learn and excel, Nima you Yang Zhu, you ruin my career! Smash my job, I'll destroy you!

Thinking of this, the bird smiled.

Before this, he thought like most people, and he didn't dare to face people's hearts. With a heart of worrying about the country and the people, so! After hearing Yang Zhu's "unstoppable" discussion, he was just as worried. So! At the instigation of the spies, they began to kill the Taoists!

Back at his lodgings, he rested for a while and the Protector prepared lunch for him. After lunch and a nap, Yang Zhu and the others went to the podium again. Afternoon! He didn't give a speech, just! Stand on the podium and listen to the debate of those below. When the debate goes to the extreme, biased, it is only when it stands up and explains.

Afternoon! The fowl did not come. He was ready to leave, went to Xiqin to live in seclusion, and went to Xiqin to find his mentor Mozi by the way. He believes! The teacher Mozi may not have died, living in seclusion in the deep mountains of Western Qin.

Hearing this, he had fully understood the Taoist doctrine, and there was no need to listen to it anymore. He just wanted to take advantage of the fact that his disciples were not paying attention and leave quietly. Since you are a seclusion, a seclusion in the mountains and forests, you can't let too many people know your whereabouts.

After listening to Yang Zhu's preaching, the man in black felt more and more that what the Taoists said was the truth, and what they were talking about was the great truth of life. People are selfish, so why do they have to talk nonsense with their eyes open? What about saying that human nature is good? Deceitful! That's a lie!

Afternoon! Under the nameless escort of Tianya, he naturally came and continued to listen to Yang Zhu's preaching.

After dinner, he didn't wait for Yang Zhu to look for him, he took the initiative to come to Yang Zhu and begged Yang Zhu to give him guidance.

"Alright! Since you took the initiative to come to me to learn the Tao, I, Yang Zhu, are naturally duty-bound! ”

Seeing that the man in black didn't pretend to make a living, Yang Zhu was very happy.

If you can convince people like the man in black to convert to the Daomen, in the future! must be a protector of the law, swearing to the death to escort the spread of Taoism. Especially this kind of person who has lost his way and returned to it, once he understands it, he is even more loyal. Stand firmer!

Under the light, Yang Zhu was dressed in gray, and his tall, thin body sat cross-legged on the wooden bed, his eyes squinted slightly, and he opened them from time to time, glancing at everyone.

The man in black knelt in front of the bed, looking like he was asking for advice in a false alarm.

Zhuang Zhou sat cross-legged at the other end of the plank bed, diagonally opposite his master Yang Zhu.

Tianya Nameless stood on the side of the bed, as Yang Zhu's protector.

In the thatched house, there are still a few people standing, Zhuang Zhou doesn't know, it is a talented man of the Great Zhou who came to seek advice. Outside the thatched house, there were countless protectors in the light and dark, staring at the surroundings with pairs of eyes, ensuring Yang Zhu's safety.

These protectors, no one persecuted them, no one organized them, they all did it spontaneously. For the sake of the spread of Taoism, they were willing. Yang Zhu is a representative of contemporary Taoist doctrine, a leading figure, and the people are willing to protect the Dharma for him, so that Taoism can spread all over the world.

"What should I do?" The man in black knelt down and begged.

"You have to cherish life!" Yang Zhu replied.

"Reunion in troubled times, life is in danger! How to cherish? ”

"Cherish the lives of others, and others will cherish your lives!"

"No one will cherish our lives, King? The king's gentlemen? Or who? ”

"People around you!"

"People around you? Who? ”

"Me!"

"You?"

"And the parents who gave birth to you! And siblings born to the same parents as you! And your wife, and your children and grandchildren! Many, much more! First of all! You have to cherish your life, then! You are to cherish their lives. ……”

The man in black looked up at Yang Zhu, his ears listening intently to Yang Zhu's preaching.
