Chapter 620: Listen to Lao Tzu preach
"Enlightened what? You've come to your senses! Lao Tzu smiled.
"Me?"
"Lift your head up!" Lao Tzu greeted.
Fang Zhong had no choice but to raise his head.
"Stand up! Sit down on the bed! ”
"Me?"
"I'll tell you to stand up, stand up, come up and sit, come up and sit! There are no outsiders here. Lao Tzu nodded.
"He's a dog! If he loves to kneel, let him kneel! Zhang Shanfeng followed up and coaxed.
Lao Tzu didn't speak, and glared at Zhang Shanfeng. Seeing this, Zhang Shanfeng stood aside with a smile and didn't dare to say more.
Lao Tzu saw that Zhang Shanfeng still treated him as a gentleman, so he said: "You go outside!" I want to preach to Fang Zhong! ”
"Yes!" Zhang Shanfeng agreed, left the thatched hut, and went to stand guard outside.
Outside the thatched house, there are several dogs walking around, looking like a family dog.
Zhang Shanfeng came outside and squatted down and beckoned to the dog. Seeing that he was calling, several watchdogs came over one by one, shaking their heads and tails, sticking out their long tongues, ready to lick his face......
"You brutes! Do you really think I'm your dog? Zhang Shanfeng said in his heart, and then began to tease the dog to play.
Under Lao Tzu's greeting again, Fang Zhong got up, took off his shoes, sat cross-legged on the bed, and sat opposite Lao Tzu.
"Fang Zhong is willing to listen to Mr.'s teachings!"
"Hehehe!" Lao Tzu smiled: "You close your eyes first!" Then relax yourself! Breathe deeply! Relax your waist! Relax your neck and relax your mind ......"
Fang Zhong did what Lao Tzu said, one by one. In the past, he had also listened to his father's teachings and cultivated. It's just that! Later, when he entered the Ji Mansion, he did not continue. In Ji's Mansion, there is his own martial arts teacher. From then on, he began to cultivate the martial arts of Ji Mansion.
Seeing that Fang Zhong's progress was very fast, Lao Tzu was particularly satisfied. After some guidance, Fang Zhong basically comprehended the Taoist mind. No! It was the cultivation method that he created and invented.
"When the mind is quiet, it is clear! You know what? You have attained enlightenment, but you are not determined! Why? Because! You can't handle all kinds of people. Isn't it? You know you're right, and you're not wrong. But when others say you're wrong, you feel as if you're wrong. Therefore! It shows that you are not confident enough and your will is not strong......"
After Fang Zhong entered the state, Lao Tzu began to preach.
He did not preach the ideas of Taoist doctrine, but only the current situation that Fang Zhong was facing. Hit the nail on the head and get to the point.
"So? How do I do that? ”
After listening to Lao Tzu's explanation, Fang Zhong had to admit that what Lao Tzu said was the truth. But? How can we change the status quo?
"Be yourself!" Lao Tzu nodded at him and said affirmatively.
"Be yourself? How to be yourself? ”
"Take advantage of the situation!"
"What is situational guidance?"
"Go with the flow!"
"What does it mean to conform to the environment?"
"Do as the locals do?"
"What does it mean to follow the local customs?"
Lao Tzu explained: "What is the advantage of the situation? It just depends on what kind of environment was there at that time? For example? Today! In this case, you just can't come hard! You shouldn't even say anything about 'slaughtering villages'. You do! It's not about taking advantage of the situation! You know what? ”
"This?" Fang Zhong was a little disagreeable and wanted to explain, but in the end he didn't explain, and continued to listen to Lao Tzu.
"Another example! Others say you! How should you cope? Take today's incident as an example, Zhang Shanfeng said that you are a dog, why can't you bear it? ……”
"Me? What should I do? Fang Zhong interrupted.
"You have two and more options, not one: default! The result of your doing this today is the default! You admit that you are a dog in Ji Mansion! Isn't it? ”
"Me?"
"You can choose to fight!"
"Fighting?"
"Whoever says you're a dog, you should hit him! ……”
"Are you a Taoist? Are you the ancestor of Taoism? Fang Zhong interrupted.
Lao Tzu didn't answer, just looked at him with his eyes.
"The Taoism I've heard of doesn't seem to be like this!"
"How?"
"Let it be! Forbearance, seclusion......"
"Who is misinterpreting my Taoism?"
"The world!"
"Me?" Lao Tzu paused and said, "I'm angry! But I believe! Not the world! It's certain people, including you! You may have misinterpreted my Taoism in this way! But! The reason is not entirely yours! You heard about it from someone else, and you understand it that way! Isn't it? ”
"Yes!"
"Let's not talk about learning yet! Let's talk about you first! Zhang Shanfeng treats you like that! You can choose to fight! There is also the option to argue! ……”
"That?" Fang Zhong interrupted again: "What if my father and mother also understand it like this? ”
"Hehehe!" Lao Tzu smiled: "Good question! Asked to the point! When answering this question, there are also conditions and environmental factors, not just your father and mother asking you. The premise is: what kind of environment is my father and mother in, ask you?
Have you thought about it? Need to say more! In public, your father's attitude has already made it clear, hasn't it? Their attitude is resolute. But! What about behind the scenes? When there are no outsiders, will your father and mother say the same about you? ”
"This?"
"What if?" Lao Tzu continued to enlighten: "If you go home secretly alone, will your father and mother kill you?" ”
"This?"
"To be angry is to be angry! After losing your temper, your mother still doesn't hug you and call you? Don't cry yet? Your dad will kill you? You yourself put a knife on your neck, and you say that you are sorry for them, that you are willing to die. And then! See how they react? ”
"This?" When Fang Zhong heard this, his tears soared.
"Anyway! Or is your will not strong! If your will is firm, you are not afraid of Zhang Shanfeng talking about you! Don't be afraid that your father and mother will misunderstand you! I am not afraid of the world misunderstanding! You know what? Some people say that you are the dog of Jifu, and some people think that you are doing the right thing! Why don't you think you're doing the right thing? Don't? What you did was wrong? ……”
"This? I? Fang Zhong knew in his heart: what he did at the beginning was right! From his standpoint, he should help Ji Pingzi and confront Lu Zhaogong! He's not wrong! Even if there is a mistake, it is Ji Pingzi's fault. As Ji Pingzi's grandson-in-law, as a person from Ji Mansion, he should do that.
Furthermore! What can Lu Zhaogong do if he succeeds? Does Lu Zhaogong have the ability to build the country of Lu well and make the country of Lu strong?
In the face of the course of history, there is no right or wrong! That's how the wheel of history is, moving forward all the time. Sometimes! It is to run the corpse of an era forward. Sometimes! But he specially ran over the corpses of some people. Some of these people, who may be good, innocent, or evil, deserve their sins.
And as individual people, in the face of history, we are helpless. When facing the world, there is no moral standard to speak of with a clear conscience. If a person is evaluated by moral standards, from different angles, anyone can become a sinner in history......
This is the saying: the winner is king, and the loser is the loser!
What's the other word? People are shameless, invincible in the world!
