The gray-robed man threw out this topic, Wang Chongyang nodded slightly, and even Ah Fei, who didn't care about the content of this debate, thought about it a few times in his heart.

In the martial arts system, Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, Mo, etc. are some theoretical schools of cultivation, and most of the martial arts in the rivers and lakes are Taoist or Buddhist, and some people claim to be able to gather the strengths of the two families, but there are very few Dacheng, because the concepts of each family are really conflicting with each other, and the two will bring about conflicts on the martial arts routine. It is as strong as a sweeping monk, and it is only to achieve the ultimate completion of the Buddha with the Tao, but it is not both.

However, what the gray-robed man said about learning martial arts with Taoism and entering Taoism with martial arts are two different ways of Taoist martial arts. One is to pay attention to the knowledge of the Jing Dao family, and then suddenly realize at a certain moment that all kinds of martial arts are also easy to understand, so as to embark on the peak of martial arts. The other is to immerse yourself in hard practice at the beginning, and when the martial arts have reached a certain level, suddenly you have also glimpsed the supreme truth of Taoism through guò martial arts, so that the martial arts have advanced to the realm of Dacheng.

From the rivers and lakes that Ah Fei knows, martial arts people often follow the latter way. After all, everyone didn't practice martial arts for any reason at the beginning. At the end of practice, I found that the truth is in one move and one formula, which is the theory of the realm. The broken void in the Huang martial arts is actually just a kind of expression that glimpses the supreme truth.

Wang Chongyang was silent for a while, then raised his head and said: "Fellow Daoists, is the ultimate goal of entering the Tao with martial arts and entering the martial arts with the Tao?" ”

Lin Chaoying listened to Wang Chongyang's question, and nodded secretly, she already knew Wang Chongyang's thinking. The gray-robed man thought for a moment. Said: "Different paths lead to the same end, and the original is not the same end." In the end, all the knowledge of Taoism was understood. The truth of martial arts is also understood. If the final return is that both are understood, then it can be regarded as the same return. If it is said that the ultimate goal of some people is to practice martial arts, and the ultimate goal of some people is to cultivate the Tao, then it is not the same goal. ”

Wang Chongyang laughed and said, "Daoyou's words are really cautious. So do you want to practice martial arts, or do you want to cultivate the Tao? ”

The gray-robed man smiled and said, "If you make a choice according to your words." They have fallen into your trap. Let me ask you, those Shaolin monks are practicing martial arts. Or chanting the Buddha? These two were indispensable, and the 'martial arts barrier' of the sweeping monks back then also made a lot of sense. ”

Wang Chongyang nodded and said, "That's right. But if I had to choose now, I would choose to enter the Tao with martial arts. ”

The gray-robed man was stunned for a moment. "It's not like you. You are a true person of Chongyang, the ancestor of the Quanzhen Sect, if you say that you are obsessed with martial arts, few people in this world will believe it. ”

Wang Chongyang said: "What you said is also true. I mean, now, at this moment, I, Wang Chongyang, have a choice, and I will choose that the ultimate goal is to practice martial arts, not to cultivate the Tao. ”

"Could it be that you have doubts about Taoism?" , the gray-robed man was puzzled.

Wang Chongyang shook his head. said: "It's not that I'm puzzled, if I change it again." Maybe you will choose to cultivate. ”

The gray-robed man sighed, and chose to bow his head and ponder, he seemed to have realized something from Wang Chongyang's words.

These two people have lotus tongues, but Ah Fei's mind is a little confused. The two of them have already talked about some philosophical and ideological levels, Ah Fei feels that what the gray-robed man said has some truth, and he also feels that what Wang Chongyang said has some truth, but the words of the last two people are a little difficult to understand, and it sounds like this makes him very unhappy in the clouds. He squinted at the others, and found that Lin Chaoying was also thoughtful, and Qingmeizhu listened to it with relish. Ah Fei sighed, which could only be understood as the difference between players and NPCs.

After a while, the gray-robed man said: "The statement of Chongyang Daoyou is nothing more than that the time is different, and people's thoughts are also different. However, in the Taoist classics I have read, there is a universal truth, which will not change. If it's changing, that's not true. ”

Wang Chongyang frowned, this time it was his turn to be silent. Ah Fei also understood that the truth is the truth, just like when he studied physics and mathematics, there were always some axioms and formulas, if they were constantly changing, they would not be axioms and formulas. However, the development of modern science is no longer to look for those unchanging axioms and formulas, but to find the eternal and unchanging relationship in the ever-changing things......

Ah Fei realized that his thoughts were off topic, and quickly moved the crooked building back. Just when Wang Chongyang was thinking, Lin Chaoying suddenly said: "Senior, the truth you said is also sought and explored by countless people in Taoism, and there is actually no one to say such a truth. Did the predecessors make discoveries? ”

The gray-robed man sighed and said, "The Tao is good, the Tao is very good." Even after reading so many books and the Ouchi Collection, I have not found a single eternal truth. But isn't this exactly what Taoism is all his life pursuing? ”

Lin Chaoying said: "Maybe not." Whether we are practicing martial arts or cultivating the Tao, we always have a goal at the beginning, but as time changes, this goal also changes, and we just look for the truth that we agree with in the process. There is a junior named Guo Jing, you know the seniors! ”

"That's right, the great man Guo Jing, this person has something to do with you and me, and I have always admired it!" , gray robe humane.

Lin Chaoying smiled: "He is a model of my martial arts. I heard that when he was a teenager, he practiced martial arts only because of a bet from several of his masters, and he didn't know why he practiced martial arts. Later, when he came to the Central Plains, his behavior gradually changed, and all he knew was that he was constantly practicing martial arts and being strong, and he might be able to fight for the qualification of Huashan to discuss swords. Later, his martial arts gradually improved, and he could even be said to be the first in the world of martial arts at that time, but he turned to seek the national righteousness of the country and the people. Martial arts is just a way and means for him to realize his thoughts, and it is his help to defend Xiangyang and stop the soldiers. Can the senior say that he has always believed in an idea? ”

The gray-robed man said, "Naturally, it won't. But his martial arts didn't just follow Taoist ideals. ”

"Yes, Guo Jing's martial arts are extremely mixed, and it can't be said that he is all Taoists. It's just that his foundation, whether it is internal strength or the Nine Yin True Scripture, and the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending, are all in harmony with the Taoist concept. Taoism is a school, in fact, you don't have to really learn those truths to be considered Taoist," Lin Chaoying said.

The gray-robed man smiled and said, "Your theory is sharp. Even so, I would like to say that this Guo Jing still has an eternal truth in his heart. He pays attention to a clear conscience and is above board, whether it is practicing martial arts or guarding Xiangyang, he has never changed this truth from beginning to end. If there is a change in his mind, then he is not Guo Jing. ”

Lin Chaoying was also stunned, bowing his head and pondering. Wang Chongyang laughed twice on the side and said, "What the two of you said is very reasonable. I want to ask Daoyou, although you said that you didn't see a truth, then you have been trying to find this truth all these years? ”

The gray-robed man sighed: "When I was young, I read and learned to write, and when I lived in officialdom, I was also ignorant. Later, after reading so many Taoist classics, I seemed to have learned a lot of truths, but these truths never became a system. Even when I learned all kinds of martial arts later, it was only passive, and I didn't really want to learn martial arts. As my martial arts skills grew, there was no one on the rivers and lakes who was my opponent, but I became more and more confused. What is my life for, is it to learn martial arts, or to cultivate Taoism, to live in seclusion in the wilderness, or to live in seclusion in the court? Today, the emperor has recruited me many times to become an official again, but I don't have this idea anymore. The reason why I have been debating with you these days is because I want to find what I want. In terms of martial arts cultivation, I can say that no one is afraid of being proud of the rivers and lakes, but when it comes to Taoist learning, you are a real person in Chongyang, and you are also a grandmaster in the Taoist faction, and you are better at this system. ”

Wang Chongyang waved his hand again and again when he heard this, and said: "I'm better at not daring to say it, but what I said before is what I think in my heart, and it is also my lifelong experience in cultivating." At this time, what is believed is the truth, and at the next time, what is believed is another truth. No matter how the truth changes, the principle I firmly believe in my heart is unchanged, just like Guo Jing's hero. Daoyou, you are a Taoist friend, and you are also my predecessor in martial arts, what a splendid legend of your achievements in this life in the history of martial arts, Gai is that you have a firm belief in every time. There must also be something constant that sustains the emergence of some of your thoughts. ”

The gray-robed man was noncommittal about this, but he thought silently in his heart, but Ah Fei's head was bigger, and he felt more and more that this debate was a course in ideology, politics and philosophy, and the more he listened, the more he couldn't sit still. Those three people are obviously unborn masters, why don't they use some short-answer tricks to compete against each other? Isn't it obvious that whoever wins will have a big reason? Just when he was thinking nonsense, the gray-robed man said silently: "The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more than is lost. I originally saw this sentence in Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, and later when I wrote this sentence in my own classics, I would also think, is it not necessarily in the loss of these heavenly ways, but in some truths? ”

Before Wang Chongyang could answer, Ah Fei had already jumped up and exclaimed: "Senior demon, I know who you are!" Huang Shang, it turns out that you are Huang Shang before! (To be continued......)
