"Xianggong, the situation is getting worse, do you still have the leisure to enjoy tea at home?" As soon as the Eighth Route Army entered the door, Shi Qin Gu asked the teacher for his crimes.

He immediately laughed dumbly: "Zijian is out of order?" ”

Qin Guqi snorted: "The morale of the army is unstable, the rumors in the officialdom are fluctuating, and the hearts are floating, there was originally a thriving situation, but now everyone is afraid of each other inside and outside, the troops of Fenglin Mountain have set up several checkpoints on the road to check the passers-by, Angel Jingfan was detained on the mountain by those lawless Qiu Ba, your old man hid Tao Shilang in the house and did not ask about the world, and the government affairs of the four states are all on me alone, although I want not to mess up, can I get it?" ”

Li Bin sighed softly: "What about the article? Are you still on the council? ”

Qin Gu frowned and said, "Ming is in the state office, after all, he has read the sages, and he will not be like Huairen at this time, regardless of the overall situation. But Xianggong is doing nothing, but why? Could it be that Xiang Gong thought that hiding Tao Shilang in the mansion would be able to appease the movements of the group of killers? Xianggong must know that Yanzhou is not as good as before, once a mutiny occurs, the disaster will be huge, and I am afraid that it will be several times more than Gao's! ”

Li Bin stood up and paced two steps, and said with a faint smile: "Even you think that I didn't let Tao Xiushi leave the house to protect him?" ”

Qin Gu was stunned for a moment, but listened to Li Bin ask with a slight sarcasm: "In the past few days, how many people have been walking around the Jiedu Mansion to spy on you about the imperial court's division of the feudal Tui'en, and how many people are wandering outside the gate of my mansion, nominally to ask to see me, but in fact they want to see Tao Xiushi...... Do you think that when I sit in the house, I have countless things in my chest? ”

Qin Gu was stunned and couldn't help asking, "Could it be that the Xianggong has other plans?" ”

Li Bin smiled coldly: "Tui En Order, the court's suspicion of Li Huairen is known to passers-by, there is something good at the top, and there is no one to respond to?" After all, Bianliang is the imperial court. It's Zhengshuo. Yanzhou officialdom is mixed with mud and sand, how many people will be active? Li Huairen has been operating in the army for several years, how can his foundation be shaken by a small push order? The king of Jin in the capital has been a good hand in bringing weapons since he was a child, how can he not penetrate this layer? Knowing that it is invalid, but still issuing this edict, what is the purpose of it? Zijian, deal with civil affairs, you are a talented follower. However, if you fight with these smart people in the court, you will suffer if you are too honest......"

Qin Gu reminisced for a long time, and said with a deep salute: "Gu is stupid, please make it clear!" ”

Li Bin sighed: "With the order of separation, the civil and military forces in Hezhou naturally know that Li Huairen has lost his holy family, and he is a wise person." Those with a loyal temperament may still be unmoved? Those who have hills and valleys in their hearts will inevitably drill up and down the camp left and right, and the more times like this, the more obvious the thickness of the distance will be...... Sediment that had been submerged under the water will rise. For Huairen, it is clear who is reliable and who is unreliable, even if Huairen is kind, if he does not take this as a crime, how can he not have the slightest mustard in his heart? Work together in the future. Can we still work together as before? The reason why Yanzhou is what it is today. It is not Li Huairen's work alone, but the harmony between the civil and military affairs in Yanzhou in the past two years, once there is suspicion, the upper part cannot settle down, and the lower is worried about his life, even if the matter in front of him can be suppressed. After three or five years, it is inevitable that some people's hearts from the outside will gradually increase, so Huairen doesn't want to kill people, but he is afraid that he can't do it. A Yanzhou where internal friction is still frequent, does the imperial court still use taboos? Chai Rong fought hard to be scolded by the emperor, and he also wanted to divide the civil and military forces in Yanzhou, and this strategy could not be said to be poisonous......"

Qin Gu smacked his tongue and said, "This Jin Wangdi is so deeply attentive? If he is the Son of Heaven. Isn't the minister bitter? ”

"Otherwise, why do you think Wang Xiufeng always looks down on him?" Li Bin asked coldly.

Qin Gu pondered for a long time. Fang Dao: "So the prince hid Tao Shilang in the mansion. On the surface, it is to protect him. \\\\ In fact, it cut off the way for Yanzhou officialdom to form a good central place in the imperial court. Is that what it means? ”

Li Bin snorted: "The old man has been up and down in this troubled world for decades. Gao Yunquan will give me three points when he is there. If you let Chai Rong have a future life, he will calculate. Isn't this age living on a dog? Li Huairen is a person in my sect. Isn't civilization the same? Chai Rong wants to use the room in Yanzhou. You have to let Li Bin not die! ”

Qin Gu took a deep breath. Said: "However, now the relationship between civilization and Li Huairen has been completed. How to resolve the relationship? ”

Li Bin smiled faintly: "In the end, it's just a choice!" Chai Rong pushed the grace order. In fact, it is also forcing Yanzhou to make a choice. Between the imperial court and Li Huairen. Whether the people of Yanzhou chose the imperial court or Li Huairen, a martial artist. This is the first layer of choice. Between Li Huairen and civilization. Do you Qin Zijian choose Li Huairen or civilization? It's another layer of choice......"

Qin Gu pondered for a long time, gritted his teeth and said: "Huairen's behavior is really hateful, but if you call the humble position to say a fair word, Yanzhou can have no article, or Qin Gu, but it can't do without Li Huairen......"

Li Bin smiled slightly: "Chai Rong's plan was originally extremely effective, although Huairen is an open-minded person, under the pressure of the situation, it is inevitable to do something extreme. But now that we have penetrated this layer, how can we let him succeed? ”

Qin Gu raised his head and said, "What do you mean by Xianggong......?" ”

Li Bin shook his head lightly: "It's a pity that Hu'er went to Gyeongju, otherwise it would be most appropriate for him to handle this matter, and he wouldn't have to go through it himself without my old bones......"

Zhou. In the Gewu Zhi", there is such a record: "In July of the third year of Guangshun, Huo Gong's Cultural Revolution was hidden in the mountain of truth, and Tu Nan Zhenren replied to the Tao of Nature on the ether with the knowledge of the changes of the physical Heavenly Dao, and Tu Nan Zhenren replied to the Tao of Nature in the ether, and then the Emperor of the World destroyed the Liberation Gate, and the learning of the world was greatly prosperous, and the Natural Dao was the ...... of the Emperor of the Kingdom."

The same story is told in the Taoist book Wanfa Zang. In the preface, it is recorded as follows: "Huairen entered the world and asked the law, Tu Nan Zhenren answered it with the natural way, all the laws follow the world, all in nature, Lao Tzu used to transform the three clears, one is the number theory, the second is physics, the third is chemistry, the three are clear, and the world is governed by the law." ”

Of course, in the eyes of the Confucian disciples, Gewuzhi is the official history, and the so-called Wanfa Zang is just a sideline heresy of the Taoist priests. The Northern Tang Family". Confucian Zhengshuo historians recorded this history as follows: "In July of the third year of Guangshun, King Sejong pushed grace to Yanxia, and the king resigned from illness and went into the mountains to express his ambition. Bingyin, Wang and Linzhen Mountain met Huashan Tu Nanzi, on the study of the world, with number theory, physics, chemistry to the old Dan Wu as the way of nature, Tu Nan Zi. The book was recorded into a book, and it was collected by later generations of Taoists, which is similar to the so-called learning of learning from things today! ”

"Taixue Temple Official Physics Canon. Li Chen's Three Laws" expounds: "The so-called three laws of mechanics, named Li Chen, are actually the enlightenment of the ancestors. In July of the third year of Guangshun, the ruling king of the Northern Tang Dynasty asked Chen Tunan of Huashan. There are three things to force, and the inscription is inscribed, so it is named! ”

The content of "Li Chensan's Law": First, the person who is stressed by the Buddha goes straight at a constant speed; Second, the ratio of the weight of the object to the force received is constant; The three say that the one who exerts force exerts his body, the size is similar, and the face and back are opposite.

These three laws of physics that only Li Wenge knew about in that year were first published, and they were indeed in the mountains of Linzhen County, and the "Linzhen Sanqing Palace" that was later widely expanded was only a few thatched houses that could shelter from the wind and rain, and the simple stargazing platform on the top of the mountain was not the "Fuyaozi Observatory" that later became famous all over the world, but on July 31 of the third year of Guangshun. Li Wenge did indeed do something groundbreaking here.

"Founders? Don't do it, don't do it. If the Zhang family of Longhu Mountain knows, it is impossible to take my head with a flying sword......" Chen Lu's old Taoist head shook like a plucked drum, and even his long beard dangled on his chest.

Li Wenge's heart is not the Shushan faction, where did he come from the flying sword stunt, but he still persuaded Chen Shu in his mouth: "Gunpowder, sulfur essence and other things, the periodic table and the like." There are too few people practicing and practicing the Tao in the world, and if it is on this scale, even if a hundred Fenglin Courtyards are built in Yanzhou, I am afraid that those foolish men and women in the villages of the world will not send their children to practice. When it comes to accepting disciples and disciples, apart from Confucianism, there are no more than two ways to explain the Tao, and the monks are reciting the barbarian scriptures passed down from Tianzhu, so that they can't change their ways. Besides, they cannot marry and have children. Even if one has cultivated such advanced learning, the mere fact that one must not marry a wife is limited to the realm of accepting disciples. Speaking of which. Lao Tzu originally admired nature, and the Taoist gate couldn't help but inherit the wind of men and women. ”

Chen Jun said with disdain: "What Daomen is good at is alchemy and drawing talismans to drive away evil spirits and catch ghosts, and it has been the main vein since the Wudou Mi Fu Han Heavenly Master has been passed down from generation to now. Although there are many branches such as the Shangqing faction, the Danding faction, the Lingbao faction, etc., but they are all short-lived, there has never been a shorter elder who can compete with the Heavenly Master, if you want to compete for hegemony and the king, or be more appropriate in the world, Lao Jun in front of the furnace to pay attention to a quiet and inaction, and the struggle for power is not the Taoist director! Li Wenge snorted: "Taoism really does nothing, why do the three acts of destroying Buddha in history involve Taoism?" ”

One sentence made Chen Shu choked, but Li Wenge said: "It's not that I look down on the so-called Zhang Tianshi, compared with other Tianzhu monks, he is really uncreative." The so-called Taoist scriptures are incomplete and logical, and there is no perfect and complete theoretical system, how can it compete with other people's Western Sanskrit singing? Together with Confucianism's instigation of the imperial court to destroy Buddhism, not only is it Gan Tianhe, but it is also easy to hurt itself. If the Daomen does not cultivate the truth, there will be another thousand years and thousands of years that will not be the opponent of the Buddhists......"

These words aroused Chen Tong's interest: "The Heavenly Master Dao has been inherited for thousands of years without decay, and it has its own certain reason, why are you so obsessed with it?" Furthermore, although you are a martial artist, you are also a person who believes in Confucian classics, why do you want to use strange powers to do the way of foolishness? ”

Relying on the eight words "strange power and confusion" and "the way of the foolish people", Li Wenge dared to conclude that this guy in front of him, who was respected by later generations of Taoists as the ancestor of Chen Tuan, who became a Taoist priest in a fit of anger after failing to take the first place in the two imperial examinations, and this well-known scholar who diligently pursued chemical knowledge and had a strong desire for knowledge, was definitely a complete pseudo-religious person.

But he didn't care, and said with a wicked smile: "Isn't Confucianism stupid? Who said that the people can make it happen, but they can't know it? If the Chinese people can be educated, so that people can read words, know etiquette, and know the way of the world, it is the study of ghosts and gods and the study of benefiting the people. ”

Li Wenge was an atheist in his previous life, but he always thought in his heart that atheists were not necessarily more civilized than theists, and materialists were not necessarily more advanced than idealists.

The history of the development of human civilization has proved that at a certain stage, science and theology are only two aspects of the same substance.

A society that is not theologically developed will also be quite limited in its scientific development......

In this sense. Theism is actually the most primitive form of scientific enlightenment.

"The natural one, from the beginning, is also the way to seek knowledge, seek what it is, and seek it as it is! Therefore, Lao Tzu said that the Tao is Taoist, and it is very Taoist. The Tao can be the Tao, the reason of all things can be sought, so the Tao can be the Tao. However, the way to obtain is not Chang Daoer, and there are real people in later generations, when it can be high in scale, wide in its vision, and deep in its refinement, then the way to seek it is the way of the first teacher. That is, the very way, but the way can also be the way, so it is said that the way can be the way, and the way is not the way. Li Wenge smiled and thought about it for a while before he finally wanted to read such a complete paragraph of metaphysical prose, and sure enough, he successfully read the "shocked" look on Chen Jundi's face.

"It's ...... Is this the truth you came up with in your own home? Chen stammered and asked.

Li Wenge smiled evilly: "This truth is actually not difficult to understand, it can come out of my mouth and into the ears of Mr. From today. It's the gentleman who realized the truth...... "This passage is original and good, but it is the credit of Yiniang to be able to polish it so catchy......

Chen Tuan glanced Li Wenge up and down, and said puzzledly: "I really can't see through it, only this paragraph is the "Lao Tzu Xiang'er Note" of the Auxiliary Han Heavenly Master." It's time to bow down. Since you have this understanding, it is enough for you to transcendentally enter the Dao Sect and form your own sect, and the name of the Grandmaster is only a matter of time...... Why do you want me, a mad Taoist priest who has no supernatural powers but sleeping, to plagiarize him? ”

Li Wenge smiled: "How broad is Brother Tunan? The journey of the avenue, but the form is different, the path is different, and its return is the same? The sons of the pre-Qin Dynasty were hundreds of schools, and there were many people who said it, but the essence of it was nothing more than the technique of strengthening the country and enriching the people. Academic Taoism can be divided into Confucianism and Taoism. Love for the people. The ambition of helping the people is the same as that of a hundred schools. Confucius's method of repentance. It is to stop the war; Lao Tzu advocates inaction, is it to provoke disputes? Therefore, the Tao is the Tao, Confucianism is also the Tao, and the Shang Dynasty and Mo Zhai are all the Tao. As for the strong division of sects and Taoism in later generations, it was Dong Zhongshu's technique of destroying Taoism and seizing power, not only lost the original intention of Taoism, but also lost the ideal of Confucianism and helping the world. ”

Chen Tong's eyes widened, and he gradually understood what Li Wenge meant: "You mean, you want me to unify a Taoist sect that has never been seen since the pre-Qin period, and in the name of Lao Tzu, tolerate the truth of a hundred schools of thought?" ”

Li Wenge's expression finally became solemn, he nodded, and said: "Exactly, a sixteen history, how many dynasties have risen and changed, and how many people have been displaced?" Wang Ba's grand plan is empty, only the inheritance of Confucianism and Taoism has not faded in the previous year, why not? It is the nature of people to seek knowledge, and if the human race is immortal, it is not natural. No matter who sits in the world, doesn't he still want to respect the tablet of Confucius? To put it mildly, this is for the master of all ages, and to put it seriously, this is to carry the ups and downs of mankind......"

Chen Tuan frowned and asked: "After all, Confucianism is the right thing in the world, aren't you afraid of being the enemy of Confucianism in the world?" ”

Li Wenge laughed: "Didn't Shicai say that Confucianism is also the Tao, but it is just the way to govern the country." The way led by Mr., in the dialect of our hometown, is science, the so-called science is to explore the principle of mutual existence and restraint of all things, the sun rises in the east has its reason, the stars fall in the west has its reason, and the country is peaceful in the world, and nature also has its reason, so the road is not the other way, the liars on Longhu Mountain can continue to draw talismans to catch ghosts and play their game, and that kind of deceptive thing can never be called a Taoist. What we want to do is to open up the atmosphere first, so that the pursuit of knowledge and further study will become the real road in the world, and completely dispel the obscurantist haze that obscures the sky. Buddhism has Vedas, could it be that Mr. Nature's way can't there be such a vajra protector as the Cultural Revolution? ”

These words were murderous, not only made Chen Qian Lingling shiver.

He pondered for a long time and asked, "Who is this Tao you are talking about?" ”

"Lao Tzu ----" Li Wenge replied without hesitation, "what is the true spiritual position karma diagram, it is all false, there is only one ancestor in the world, that is, Taishang Laojun, Lao Tzu one gasification and three clearing, one is number theory, two is physics, and three is chemistry; All things are reasonable, and all things are natural, so this sect can be called the natural way, or the Taishang Sanqing natural way. Those who enter our door must study number theory, physics, and chemistry for three years, and after three years, they can choose to study one according to their interests and wishes. Disciples in the Tao can't help it, they can marry their own children, they can enter the imperial examination, they can be officials, they can be businessmen, they can be farmers, they can be workers, they can be doctors, they can be scholars, and those who enter the Tao and practice all include food and lodging, regardless of age, regardless of men, women, old and young, and those who are willing to enter the school are all apprentices of Mr. ......"

Speaking of this, Li Wenge's speech slowed down, and looking at Chen Tong, who was already stunned, he slowly said the last sentence: "...... Confucianism can also enter the Tao, and the natural Tao is too high...... Take Confucius as a teacher"
