"Why? You can't do it? Fang Jishi's anger was a little loud, and he asked loudly.

"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land! What can we do? In-laws? You? You are as obsessed as Lao Tzu! You? Confucius argued.

"How can I be the same as Lao Tzu? I am a student of Lao Tzu! I'm a Taoist, I'm a real person! I! I? What's wrong? It's you! What happened to you? Are you bent on abiding by the old system? ……”

"You don't know! If you want to break the old system, you need to pay a price! Every time there is a change of dynasty, it is a ...... that kills people."

"Could it be? Are there no dead people now? ”

Fang Jishi interrupted: "How many years have you been?" Since the collapse of etiquette, since the princes fought for hegemony, that year did not die? Listen to Lao Tzu! What was the population of the Great Zhou Dynasty at its peak, and now? How many people are left? Do you want me to talk about this? You said?

Which vassal state has not been at war since the fall of the Zhou dynasty? There has been no civil unrest. What year does not die? War is coming, how many people are going to die? Why? You said? You? Alas! ……”

Fang Jishi shook his head and continued: "Lao Tzu said! The weekly rites and the weekly system are outdated and no longer suitable for this era. A new era is coming, and before the new era arrives, there is a time of 'darkness before the dawn'. But! If no new ideas emerge and the most suitable ideas for mankind are found, even if the old system is overthrown, it will not bring happiness to the people.

Lao Tzu said! If the guiding ideology of life is wrong, there will be no happiness for human beings! And this new guiding ideology is his Taoist ......"

Confucius interrupted: "Sir's Taoism can't be promoted!" ”

"If you can't promote it, you have to promote it! Continue to promote until one day, let everyone in the world know. ”

Confucius interrupted again: "I think the same way! I'm just stubborn to the weekly rites and the weekly system! Even if everyone in the world doesn't abide by the weekly etiquette and weekly system, I have to abide by it! I, Kongqiu, believe that someone will follow me! I, Kongqiu, believe the same, as long as we persevere. I believe that one day, everyone in the world will be like us! ……”

"I don't think you're a saint! It's a scourge! ”

Fang Jishi interrupted: "Why do you want to stubbornly stumble on the weekly rites and the weekly system, and cater to social management? You? Why can't you govern society from the perspective of people and human nature?

He has clearly interpreted that the state is a temporary institution, a phenomenon in the historical process of human society. When human civilization has reached a certain period, when human beings realize themselves, the state as an institution does not exist.

What Mr. means is: the state is only a temporary institution, not a permanent one. When humanity understands why and what it is for, there will be no more wars for mankind. Without war, nations would not exist.

So! Do you always think about the country from the perspective of the country and govern the society? Why do you have to be a human being in order to cater to social management? Why can't you just be yourself? What about being a human being? ”

"Under the whole world, if it is not the king's land, how can we escape?" Confucius emphasized.

"If we follow the teachings of the gentleman, we can escape!"

"Sir taught us to do nothing! But? How does he make us do nothing? We live in the real world and can't escape it? Unless? Let's take refuge in the mountains? When you see a stranger coming, you hide and never see anyone else......"

"How do you understand that? Is that what Mr. taught you? ”

"That? What does the gentleman teach us to do nothing? How should we be governed? Confucius asked rhetorically.

"Said the gentleman! Don't chase superfluous things, don't chase fame and fortune, etc., ......"

"How is that possible? I can't do it! If we don't chase the superfluous, how can we survive in this troubled world? ……”

Fang Jishi interrupted: "You understand bias again!" Mr. taught us that not chasing superfluous things does not mean not going to work and not pursuing! What does the sir mean! Stop! It's not that you only work today to earn today's food, and tomorrow you will work again to earn tomorrow's food. That's not what it means!

What does the sir mean! We still have to earn as much as we can earn! We can earn a lot at a time, and no one is competing with us, so why don't we earn more? You don't have to understand dogmatically!

For example! We found a wild fruit tree in the trees, which was full of fruit. We can't dogmatically understand that instead of chasing superfluous things, it is enough to pick one meal and eat, and tomorrow we have to eat and come back tomorrow. If you understand it this way, you are dogmatic! Isn't it? Tomorrow we will go, and the fruit of the fruit tree may be plucked by wild beasts or enemies. Or! Tomorrow we will not be in this place.

Another example! You can't work in the winter, and if you don't stock up some food in the fall, you'll starve to death in the winter? Isn't it?

And also! You don't plow in the spring and summer, where do you get your grain storage in the fall? Isn't it? So! You don't dogmatically understand what Lao Tzu said about ruling by inaction and going with the flow! And what Lao Tzu said about not chasing fame and fortune, you don't understand it dogmatically.

What Mr. Lao Tzu said, not chasing fame and fortune, does not tell us not to do things and not to dedicate! Mr. Lao Tzu said! Dedication! Yes, it is needed! Only selflessness can lead to selfishness! The gentleman said, "The reason why heaven and earth are long and long is because they are not selfish." Because he is selfless, he can become his private ......"

"Stop!" Confucius interrupted, "Where have we come to this? How can we just 'sit back and talk'? ”

"Where are we? We've said you're a scourge! You are not a saint! You are a scourge! You? Fang Jishi said angrily.

"Me?"

"You!"

"Me?"

"You!" Fang Jishi glared as if he was arguing with Confucius, and said, "Mr. taught us to save society from the perspective of people and human nature!" And you! Be sure to be dogmatic! Govern society from the perspective of managing society! What do you mean? I'm debating with you, and you're still saying that I don't have a sense of social responsibility, aren't you? ……”

"That's what Mr. Lao Tzu said! I said he didn't have a sense of social responsibility! ”

"You say that, sir? You? ”

"Me?"

"Sir's Taoism is from the perspective of human beings and human nature. Society! Country! It is all composed of individual people, and does not solve the fundamental problem of human beings and human nature! You can't manage and govern society well!

And you! It's stuck on this. You must stand in the perspective of managing society, you must 'deny 1 self and 1 courtesy', don't count yourself if you suffer, but also lead your followers to suffer together! You? Aren't you a scourge? You? ”

"Me? I do! Who did I recruit and who did I mess with? ”
