"Meng Yuan is a Confucian Taoist cultivator who is superb and knowledgeable. In the past few days, several of us in Class A have formed the seeds of Confucianism and Taoism and have successfully entered the Dao! There are also a few people who originally entered the Dao and are now consolidating and consummating. Meng Yuan is really a great contributor......"

Zou Yan glared: "Why do you praise him so much, are you my disciple or his disciple?"

Lin Hu couldn't help but shrink his head, and hurriedly said, "Of course it's yours!"

Seeing that Zou Wei's face was slightly softened, Lin Hu smiled and continued: "Actually, the disciple has been thinking about it for a long time recently, although the disciple can't listen to this Confucian and Taoist classic, but it's not that there is no other way to cultivate Confucianism and inherit your Taoism!"

"Oh, what do you say?" Zou Yan was a little surprised, and suddenly became interested.

Lin Hu sorted out his thoughts in the past few days, and said slowly: "The so-called subset of Confucian and Taoist classics is nothing more than the writings of Confucian and Taoist sages to inherit Confucianism and Taoism?

Zou Wei nodded slowly and said, "That's right!"

Lin Hu suddenly became interested, and continued: "And the reason why there are Confucianism, the way of the sword, the way of ink, and the way of soldiers, and the reason why these avenues are divided is nothing more than the different angles from which everyone looks at problems! And this interpretation is nothing more than heaven and earth, and nothing more than people's hearts! Therefore, there are hundreds of schools of thought in the world, and there are countless avenues, so they should be different paths and the same end! As long as it is the truth, it should be universal!"

Lin Hu paused and said:

"For example, just like my father, he is a military cultivator. His Tao is the eight words 'kill with killing, and counter violence with violence'!"

"Kill to stop killing, and fight violence with violence...... In this way, arrogant and domineering...... Who is your father?" asked Zou Yan curiously.

"Well, Master, that's not the point, we'll talk about it later. Listen to your disciple's sermon first!"

Lin Hu seemed to have something to gain, stood up excitedly, and even wanted to directly "preach" to Zou Wei, who was only middle-aged and had already become a half-step Confucian?

Zou Yan smiled, didn't mind, made a "please" gesture, and motioned for Lin Hu to continue.

"And when I went home this time, my father told me another sentence, that is, 'repay virtue with virtue and repay grievances with integrity'. He said that this sentence was the most recognized Confucian and Taoist classic, and he asked me to remember and do it!

"The Analects of the Constitution." Zou Wei replied casually.

"That's right! This is what Confucius Zu, who stresses moderation and benevolence, said! But how is this core concept different from my father's violent and murderous military ways? My father has been fighting horses all his life, killing people in many fields, and I am afraid that there will be no less than 100,000 million people killed by this father! But I think, if my father had not beaten the enemy so hard and scared that the enemy would not dare to go to war! Will more people die in the future? Then can my father say that he saved millions of people?

"You've got a point. Zou Yan nodded thoughtfully.

was recognized by Zou Wei, and Lin Hu was even more excited:

"My father also warned me that it is difficult for people to distinguish between good and evil, and that things are easy to distinguish between right and wrong. I also took it to heart. Recently, I listened to Meng Yuan's lecture, and I seemed to hear a similar classic, that is, a gentleman does not exalt people by his words, and does not ...... What's the second half of the sentence?'"

"'A gentleman does not exalt a person by his words, and does not use a person's nonsense!' is also from the "Xianwen", what Confucius said is that you can't approve of this person just because he says something good, nor can you deny all his words because this person is not good. Zou Wei explained.

"That's right, that's it!" Lin Hu nodded, "Isn't this another truth! It's about dealing with people, not about things, not about people! My father, a general who cultivates the way of soldiers, why does his teaching to me coincide with the Confucian classics everywhere?"

"Although your father cultivates soldiers, he has great wisdom, and he is not a mortal! I hope to have the opportunity to meet him!" Zou Wei sighed and said from the bottom of his heart.

"Well, yes, Master. Lin Hu first nodded in agreement, and then said, "Doesn't this prove what I just said! The principles of this world are all the same! Confucianism, Soldiers, Swords, and Mo...... These avenues are only in different forms, and from different angles, they interpret and perceive heaven and earth and the human heart! This is like-"

Lin Hu looked down at the tea on the table: "Just like the tea on this table, although I don't know what the name of this tea is and where it comes from, I can also taste the fragrance of this tea! Why should I stick to form, why not seek its essence?"

"Seeking the Tao is not confined to the form, but only the essence?" Zou repeated the sentence in a muttered manner, his eyes lit up, "then how to do it?"

Lin Hu smiled and scratched his head: "I haven't figured this out yet." ”

After speaking, he also sat down and raised the teacup in his hand again: "I think that as long as I follow this road, maybe I will be able to understand Confucianism and Taoism on the basis of my sword! Perhaps, in the future, I will be able to understand the Yin and Yang Dao, the Mo Dao, the Soldier Dao, and the Dharma Dao on this basis...... Then unite all the ways and point straight to the avenue of heaven and earth!"

Well, as soon as this sentence came out, he couldn't help but regret it a little!

This tone is also too big! I am just a monk who has not yet reached the cultivation of the yuan, and it is really not my own style to say such big things.

It's just that in the past few days, he has been thinking about cultivating Confucianism and Taoism and inheriting his master's Taoism, and today when he saw that his master had gained something, he couldn't help but blurt out, but there was some Meng Lang!

Lin Hu lowered his head and drank tea, his face was slightly red.

And Zou Yan's eyes were closed, as if he had been thinking for a long time and did not move, and finally, he opened his eyes.

He stood up, straightened his clothes, bowed to Lin Hu, and bowed uprightly: "Thank you, Master Lin!"

"Ahh

The cup in Lin Hu's hand almost overturned, and he hurriedly stood up, hurriedly flashing, not daring to accept this gift.

"Master, what are you doing here, the disciple can't afford it!"

"You can bear it!" Zou Wei straightened up and said solemnly, "The so-called threesome, there must be my teacher! If you have this word, you can be called a teacher! Today, I have benefited a lot from your words, maybe you can enter the realm of heaven and man earlier, and this will be more than a thousand words?"

Hearing the master say this, Lin Hu was also overjoyed: "The disciple just said what he thought in his heart in the past few days, and he was really lucky to be able to give the master some small help!"

Zou Yan shook his head: "How can this help be "small"!"

After that, he raised his head and laughed, and said excitedly: "I really didn't see the wrong person! You must be the person who is in the middle of my yin-yang, Confucianism, and Taoism! Maybe in the future, my yin-yang, Confucianism, and Taoism will no longer be named, but a new Taoist system will inevitably be born! Just like breaking out of a cocoon into a butterfly, like being reborn from the fire! Repeatedly, the inheritance will not be extinguish......ed."

"Master, it's a false compliment!" Lin Hu was also a little embarrassed to be praised.

Zou Wei calmed down and said with a smile: "Actually, I called you here today just to comfort you." If you can't listen to the subset of the classics, you don't have to force it! Master thought of teaching you in other ways, but he didn't expect to be taught a lesson by you first...... Haha, I'm so relieved!"

Thinking of this, Zou Wei laughed out loud again, obviously very proud.

Hearing this, Lin Hu was also very moved, and Master kept thinking about himself: "Thank you, Master!"

Zou Yan thought for a while and said, "I originally wanted to teach you my Yin-Yang Confucianism and Taoism in a few days, but I know now that with your understanding, this arrangement is a complete waste of time! From tonight onwards, I will preach the Yin-Yang Confucianism and Taoism of you and me! Tonight, you and I will be on the top of Xiaoqingshan Mountain!"

"Huh?" Although Lin Hu was a little surprised by this time and place, he still respectfully said yes.

"Alright. It's time for class to end! See you tonight, don't miss the hour. Zou Wei waved goodbye kindly.

Lin Hu bowed down and said goodbye and went out.

When he left, Zou Wei suddenly laughed again, he stood up, walked to the side, stretched out his hand to open the door of the other room, tilted his head slightly and said proudly:

"How is it, my disciple, what do you think?"

There was a moment of silence in the room, and a serious, low voice rang out from within. If Lin Hu hears it, he will naturally feel very familiar, if this voice says the word "go out", Lin Hu will definitely recognize it immediately, unambiguously!

"The sons of the saints should be here!"
