Chapter 486: This master is not his master

"Sneer......"

"Uh......" Xuan Chu was frightened by the sudden snort! What's wrong? This guy, why is he angry like this when he mentions his wife's absence, it has always been his pain point, then his wife must be gone, otherwise why would he be so angry?

"Who asked you to ask my wife, of course she lives, she not only lives, she also lives well, and she has always lived in my heart now, forever......" as if to calm down his anger before speaking.

Chu Chu exclaimed: "Ah! Your wife is dead? It's a shame, I've been touched by your story......"

"Snort...... You don't talk nonsense, you're arranging my wife's words with you, he's the best woman in the world, no one is qualified to say her, and you don't have the qualifications to say her, aren't you afraid of angering me and eating you? ”

Xuan Chu thought to himself, this guy must be lying, because he cares too much about this matter, so don't lie, covering up the reality that he can't accept in his heart, indicating that he has pressed these things into his heart as the truth.

Xuan Chu said: "If she is still alive, why do you emphasize the fact that she is still alive so much? ”

"Snort, what nonsense are you talking about, I don't know my own affairs, let you talk nonsense, I was thinking about whether to leave you a letter, after all, your master is quite powerful, when the time comes, I'm afraid that I can't afford to provoke your master after I eat you, who knows that you don't cherish your life so much, don't cherish your time alive, just want to force me to eat you early?"

Chu Chu thought to himself, ah! It seems that this monster is quite smart, he knows who can afford to mess with and who can't, it seems that he still knows a lot about the master!

Xuan Chu said: "Haha, since you are so afraid of my master, then you still come here and wait to eat my flesh and my blood, I really admire you goblins, I know that this road will not work, and I have to go up this mountain, and I don't know if you are not good at IQ or greedy!" ”

"Haha, you yellow-haired girl, what do you know, when I kept saying that I was born to you, I just said that he said to your master, it was not interesting to see if he listened first, just respect him, you really think how powerful he is, I still follow you, can you honor your master?"

"Sister, just listen to the goblin's nonsense, he is disturbing your heart, then you don't have normal judgment, and then he will confuse you and make you his bag, the meal on his plate......"

Xuan Chu whispered to the ginseng doll: "I won't tell him now, if there is any way, I have to drag his hind legs, otherwise you want him to eat me like a hungry tiger right away......"

Ginseng Doll: "Uh......"

Xuan Chu said to the monster again: "Monster, cultivation is rampant, if you wait for my master to come, you will be too late to run, how long will you wait if you don't run now?" ”

"Hahaha, joke, you yellow-haired girl, do you know how to write the word master? It's really self-conscious to yell at me......"

"Chinese culture is broad and profound, and many times a simple word has a very rich connotation, and synonyms and synonyms should not be confused and used. For example, in Chinese, there is a very strict distinction between the words "master" and "master". Liang Hongda pointed out: Strictly speaking, these two words cannot be called indiscriminately, let alone used indiscriminately, but modern people ignore this point. ”

"Hahaha, it's like you know a lot, what do you know? What was overlooked? ”

Chu Chu said, "Haha, you're still an anxious goblin, aren't you?" "Shifu" first appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and when it first appeared, it did refer to people who were engaged in teaching activities, that is, what they call teachers in modern life. After Qin Shi Huang unified the world, the feudal autocratic society began to form ......"

"Fu" is specifically used to refer to people who participate in teaching in the imperial family, such as Taishi and Taifu who served in the imperial court, both refer to people who are engaged in teaching activities and have the duty of teaching students, where the word is a joint structure, that is, Shi and Fu are synonymous.

It was not until the Song and Song dynasties that the meaning of the word master began to expand, not only referring to the teachers of the imperial family, but also the common people who called teachers can also be called masters, in fact, this can also be seen, and the etiquette of feudal autocratic society is becoming more and more relaxed.

Later, in the Qing Dynasty, various Western civilizations and technologies were introduced in the middle and late periods, and we had to learn more skills, so the word master not only existed in the educational world, but also applied in handicrafts and other industries.

But today, the meaning of the word "master" has been further expanded. Not only people who have unique skills or are highly respected will be called masters, but in real life, anyone who meets them will politely say "master", and this word has become an indispensable substitute word in our social interactions.

"Master" appeared much later than the word "master", first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and at the beginning it was basically synonymous with master, that is, it refers to a teacher who preaches and teaches his profession. However, in the Yuan and Ming dynasties, with the gradual development of Taoist culture, Taoists began to become an important part of Chinese society, so the word "master" was often used as a term for Buddhists or Taoists. This was the biggest shift in the term, and it is still used today.

To put it simply, "Master" and "Master" both refer to the teacher, and both express respect for the person they are called, but there will be differences on some specific occasions

The admonition of being a teacher for one day and a father for life is still applicable today, and the order of the teachers of heaven and earth determines the extremely high status of teachers in feudal society. Both master and master can denote a master-apprentice relationship, but the former is more formal.

In the Taoist world, it is generally necessary to use the master to call the people in the Buddhist sect, to show respect, to call the master, will make others feel very disrespectful, which many people do not pay much attention to, in fact, this is also a point that needs to be corrected.

"Immortal Dao Guisheng" is an important feature of Taoism, but it does not advocate detachment from society in order to learn Taoism, and the immortal Tao does not depart from humanity, and only "all-humane" can "cultivate immortal Taoism". "Nine Essentials of Taoism" says that those who learn the Tao are the first, and only when they fulfill their social responsibilities can they be qualified to learn the Tao and cultivate the Tao and help the world.

If you believe in Taoism, you should apply the wisdom and compassion of the Tao to your life and work, and cultivate, practice, and enlighten in society. Harmony in life, service to society, benefit all beings. This is the fundamental way to bring out the role of the Tao. So, what kind of attitude should a person who learns the Tao have towards life?
