Chapter 417: If a Man Can Be Like the Sky, He Can Preach!
"It turns out that what I know is just one of the seas in the real ancient history......"
Kong Qiu couldn't help but smile bitterly, which made him a little ashamed, but more of a joy after really gaining knowledge.
After a few moments of digestion.
Confucius asked again:
"The teacher is really a great virtue, and the disciple has another question, I don't know what is the status of the Divine Prefecture where we are located, and the vast universe and ten thousand domains?"
After Zhou Tianzi and the others were shocked, they couldn't help but be shocked by this question and immediately looked at the past.
If it was said that Zhou Tianzi was still worried about the invasion of the vassal states above Shenzhou before, then after Chen Xixiang opened up the vast cosmic perspective just now, some changes occurred invisibly in his state of mind.
The pressure from the local Shenzhou couldn't help but be subconsciously ignored by him, and he turned his attention to this problem.
What is the existence of Shenzhou in the universe?
Chen Xixiang was asked about this, his eyes slowly fell on Kong Qiu, looked into the depths of his eyes, and smiled slightly:
"You just need to know that the land under our feet has a great origin, and even in the universe, its status is lofty and supreme......"
He didn't lie at all, the earth in the sky is different from the earth in other time and space, strictly speaking, this is a corner of Kunlun after it was destroyed, and Kunlun was a corner of the fairy domain in the past.
It is precisely because of this that in the past, the emperor laid down ninety-nine dragon mountains on the earth, and the earth could become a 'place for raising corpses' that could nourish the body of the emperor.
It is precisely because of this that the Feather God Dynasty captured all kinds of physique geniuses from the universe and wanted to water the green tripod and open the way to immortality on the earth.
The elder brother of the Ruthless Emperor was brought to Earth and fell in the Kunlun Mountains of Earth.
All of this is because of the special nature of the earth.
None of this can be told to the people in front of them, because they can't hold such a big secret.
If these are exposed.
The earth will become the first place of contention in the universe.
Hearing Chen Xixiang's ambiguous and mysterious answer about the earth, Kong Qiu also knew that this old gentleman was unwilling to reveal too much to them.
Confucius didn't ask, and after thinking about it, he asked another question:
"Sir has solved many doubts of the disciple, but the disciple has one last question, what is the Tao? How to preach? ”
When Chen Xixiang heard this, he immediately looked at Confucius with deep meaning in his eyes, and the other party was not asking one question, or rather, there were two meanings in one question.
One is the Tao in the literal sense of the word, and the other is ......
It's asking...... The Law of Becoming an Emperor.
There is no end to life, and there is no end to learning, when Kong Qiu himself has stepped into the realm of the peak of the Great Sage on the earth, he must want to know the realm above the Great Sage.
He is not just a scholar in history, he is also a great monk in this time and space.
"The Tao is the way, not the constant way."
Chen Xixiang smiled slightly: "The Great Dao is indescribable, I can only answer you what is the Heavenly Dao?" ”
"The Tao is the way, but the Tao is not the constant ......"
Confucius's body was shocked, and he was immediately touched to the soul by these six simple words, and immediately realized something, and then heard the second half of Chen Xixiang's sentence, immediately got up and bowed deeply:
"Heavenly Dao? Please teach me too! ”
Chen Xixiang said slowly: "The Tao is not an inconceivable thing, it is unspeakable, and there must be mistakes in words, but ...... The sky can be spoken, even considerable, proven, and beyond the ......"
After a pause or two, he said slowly:
"The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more loss, and the way of man is to make up for the deficiency than it is to give more."
"When the way of man is like the way of heaven, then the way of heaven can be preached."
Hear this passage.
Confucius's pupils constricted in an instant, and he was covered in cold sweat:
"The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency with more loss, and the way of man is to give more than enough to give if the loss is insufficient, if people can be like the ...... of heaven"
This moment.
Even Zhou Tianzi also had hairs on his back, he didn't practice enough, he couldn't hear the true meaning of cultivation behind this sentence, he only understood it in a literal sense, and only felt that Chen Xixiang had told a great horror truth.
The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more than is lost.
Heaven is noble and constant, regards all things as dogs, treats everyone equally, and balances yin and yang with the most attention.
It is like a bucket of water, if it overflows, the Heavenly Dao will begin to balance, and move its surplus to another lacking place in the universe.
This is called the way of heaven, where there is more than enough to make up for what is lacking.
But the way of man is not, and the loss is insufficient and the service is more than enough.
Zhou Tianzi was covered in cold sweat because of this sentence.
This is the way of man.
To the detriment of oneself and to complement others.
Gather the wealth of the poor and the lowly, and flatter the heart of the noble.
The lower-class families were surrounded by walls and suffered a lot.
The upper class has a lot of money and is inexhaustible.
Because of this sentence, he saw that for example, the people of Li today, and even the people of Li in all dynasties, the people themselves are extremely poor, but they still have to support the dignitaries and nobles, and use their own modest strength to worship them, the already rich princes and nobles.
One sentence exhausted the difference between heaven and man, and also broke the horror of the human dynasty.
But many Lebanese people are not aware of this.
If they are awakened to this point or led by others, they will immediately overthrow this extremely unequal human world and realize that they are the masters of the world.
Just when Zhou Tianzi and the ministers were chilling behind their backs and covered in hair.
Kong Qiu always muttered Chen Xixiang's words just now:
"The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more loss, and the way of man is to give more than enough for the loss, if people can be like the sky, they can preach the Tao......"
What he saw naturally did not know the worldly side that Zhou Tianzi only saw, but the true meaning of cultivation behind this paragraph.
It means that people cannot contribute themselves, but ask for the way of heaven, and use the way of heaven to supplement themselves, so that they are no different from the sky, so that they can integrate the mark of the heart of heaven, and subdue the ten thousand ways with one piece, so as to become an emperor.
This is the method of enlightenment, to seize the creation of heaven and earth with one's own body, to seize the heavens and the earth without limits, to damage the surplus of heaven and all things, and to make up for one's own shortcomings.
The law is like the Tao, and it can be preached.
He remembered the scene he had seen before he came to the Zhou royal family, which was the scene of Chen Xixiang's old and shriveled hand snatching life towards the Great Avenue of the Universe.
But, this kind of ......
Take the essence of all things and become yourself.
As if seeing Confucius's hesitation, Chen Xixiang said lightly:
"The saint does not care about the heart, there is no perfect person above the heart, however, the way of heaven and the earth do not care about the heart, the heaven and the earth are not benevolent, in fact, the great benevolence, the most balanced, will not plunder everything excessively, after becoming an emperor, it is to better protect all beings, but there is indeed a group of people who will fall because of this, only look at the aspirations of each humane."
This is the difference between the Great Emperors and the Darkness in the Heaven and Space.
Covering the world, using one's body as a seed, seizing the mysteries of the universe, nourishing one's own Dao species, and finally becoming enlightened.
The ancient emperors attained enlightenment, and it was not a rebellion against heaven and earth.
But in the end, there were two results.
One is that people such as the Void Emperor, the Hengyu Emperor, and the Beginningless Emperor, after becoming emperors, choose to protect sentient beings.
On the other hand, there are those supremes in the forbidden area of life, who have no living beings in their eyes, and regard all things that contain essence as source energy that can replenish themselves.
As long as he can live, he will not hesitate to plunder the universe and devour all things.
Because the choice of the heart is different.
As a result, there was darkness and turmoil, but in fact, they all built the same road.
When Confucius heard these words, he was like being washed by the evening drum and morning bell, and bowed deeply:
"The disciple is enlightened!"
Next, he asked many questions, and Chen Xixiang answered them one by one.
Time flies by in the process of this question and answer.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
In the main hall, Kong Qiu had completely presented a student attitude, and he was convinced of Chen Xixiang from the inside out.
"Listening to Mr. preacher for seven days, Kong Qiu suddenly opened his mouth, Zhong Ni once heard, teacher, preaching, teaching, and solving doubts."
Kong Qiu bowed deeply in front of Chen Xixiang and kowtowed three times:
"Jonny meets the teacher!"
Chen Xixiang smiled and reached out to help him up:
"I am very fortunate to have you as an apprentice."
He spans all worlds, and the apprentices he has received are not few, but none of them are as big as the identity he received this time.
Although this one is just an ordinary great sage in the sky.
However, his true identity in the heavens of eternity, the ancestor of Confucianism and Taoism in the ages, and the first person to open up the dark long night.
Heaven does not give birth to a master, and eternity is like a long night.
This is the evaluation of the fourth sage of Confucianism.
Now that he has received this holy master in the time and space of Shatian, it can be said that he has received the greatest help for his preaching.
Practice, preach.
He crossed all worlds, and cultivation was one thing, and preaching was also a must.
After worshipping Chen Xixiang, Kong Qiu slowly got up and finally asked the question he wanted to ask from the beginning:
"With the teacher's practice, but for some reason he lives in the storage room......"
From the other party's preaching in the past few days, Kong Qiu only felt that his teacher, who had the depth of the universe, and his identity must be a surprisingly large one in the universe, otherwise it would be impossible to know so much about the things of the universe.
But he chose to stay in the library of a country above Shenzhou.
"There is a way to hide in the court, in the middle in the city, and in the wild ......"
Chen Xixiang got up slowly:
"But you say yes, I really shouldn't live here anymore, and tomorrow I'll get up and leave here."
Now.
Zhou Tianzi's face changed greatly:
"What? The old gentleman is leaving? ”
He still expects the other party to help him subdue those dynasty overlords.
"It's all you, Kongqiu!"
Zhou Tianzi even looked at Kong Qiu angrily, if it weren't for your mouthy question, how could the old gentleman abandon my royal family.
However, he immediately heard a sentence from Chen Xixiang's mouth that made his expression turbulent.
"There is a place that is related to the lifeblood of China, and the old man needs to go and see it, so it is inconvenient to bother it anymore."
The lifeblood of China?
Zhou Tianzi's heart was shaken, what big thing is going to happen?
Chen Xixiang didn't elaborate, turned to look at Kong Qiu, and smiled slightly:
"Will you come with me?"
"I don't know where the teacher wants to go?"
Confucius hurriedly bowed.
"West of Shenzhou."
Chen Xixiang's voice was calm and indifferent:
"Hangu Pass."
