However, after Jia Huan saw this thing, he was not surprised.

Because there are gods and ghosts in this world, but Shenjing is the residence of the Son of Heaven, and it is the safest place in a dynasty, and ordinary demons do not dare to approach this place at all, even if they are big demons and fierce demons, they will not die to come to such places to find trouble.

Jiafu is also in a prominent place in Shenjing, so the demons dare not approach.

The ancestor Jia Yuan is a top military general who followed Taizu to fight the world, and his qi and blood can condense the smoke of the tiger and the wolf, and evolve all kinds of incredible top martial arts supernatural powers, suppressing demons and monsters, just like exploring the bag.

Even if Jia Yuan has sat down now, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the heritage inherited by the older generation of Jiafu is still not an existence that ordinary demons dare to peep at.

Therefore, the people of Jiafu eat, drink and have fun, do not want to forge ahead, indulge in gentle township every day, and have never encountered strange things such as fairy spirits, female fairies and fox fairies.

It's like a newbie village in the world of the novel game, and in the safe area, demons are forbidden to pass!

If it weren't for Jia Huan's desire to ascend to the Immortal and seek the Tao, he had intentionally collected information in this regard, and now he would not be very clear about browsing this content rashly.

However, Jia Huan always believed that Jia Dairu took out this book and must have other deep meanings.

Jia Dairu did not speak.

Jia Huan had to open this "Great Wilderness Sutra" and browse it.

The content of this book is a notebook written by Wang Yangming, the prime minister of the former dynasty, which is written about demons and monsters, Taoist priests and immortals, talented and beautiful women, and female fairies and fox fairies.

"Wang Yangming? An invincible master of mind? The Confucian sage who shouted the unity of knowledge and action, and the knowledge of things? ”

"This book is full of fairy ghosts, mountain goblins, fox fairies, talented and beautiful women, Taoist demons and other wonderful stories, the narration method is not much different from Han Feizi's "Difficult to Say", all of them use fables to expose the darkness of people's hearts and persuade people to be good. Many of the wonderful methods mentioned in it may be real cases that the saint himself once witnessed. ”

"Others write notebook novels about fairies and ghosts, but they are afraid that they will be suspected of making up nonsense. It's just that this world of the immortal god Red Mansion manifested by gods and ghosts, I'm afraid this is the author's personal experience. ”

"Although Wang Yangming of the previous dynasty has become ancient, the Confucian masters and officials in the imperial court are all disciples and grandchildren of Yangming Xinxue, and if I can understand this saint a little more, and make articles that are in line with the saint's avenue and cater to the tastes of the saint's disciples, then I will definitely be able to go to high school."

"Those clan students who only know how to study dead don't know the sophistication and reasoning of the people in it. When the time comes, if you discuss the way of Confucius and Mencius, even if you write a wonderful scroll and write brilliantly, as long as it does not conform to the sage path expounded by Yangming Xinxue, you will definitely not be able to get into high school. ”

Before the autumn exam, Jia Dairu gave this book to Jia Huan to figure out, just to let Jia Huan have a preliminary understanding of the sage avenue of Yangming Xinxue, and also to remind and warn him sideways, what school of thought is the examiner of this autumn exam, and what is the style of the splendid article he hopes to make.

Once the examiner is angered, resulting in a failure in the autumn exam, the bamboo basket will be empty, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

Jia Huan seems to be young, but the thoughts in his heart are by no means idle.

"It's a good unity of knowledge and action, it turns out that there is such an explanation."

Jia Huan flipped through it casually, and suddenly saw a story, read it carefully, and was surprised.

The story goes like this:

A disciple named Xu Yue met Wang Yangming on the shore with the same devout hope as a believer's pilgrimage, and followed Wang Yangming to practice the Divine Passage Method in order to achieve great fame.

Wang Yangming saw that he was extremely talented and sincere in seeking Taoism, so he agreed.

Xu Yue is still in the initial stage of Wang Yangming's mind - meditation, but he is sure that in meditation he understands the true meaning of Wang Yangming's mind and the unity of knowledge and action.

Wang Yangming asked him to give an example, Xu Yue excitedly cited an example, he cited one, Wang Yangming denied one, and cited more than a dozen, there was no example to enumerate, and he was quite frustrated.

Wang Yangming pointed out to him: You are too obsessed with things.

Xu Yue didn't understand.

Wang Yangming pointed to the light of the candles in the boat, and suddenly the entire boat was filled with light, and said, "This is the light in the house." ”

Then he drew a circle in the air, and in an instant, the light of the stars outside bloomed brightly, obscuring the sky and the sun, and suddenly, the heavens and the earth were clear, as if it were day, and said, "This is also light." ”

He pointed to the position where the starry sky was illuminated by the light of the ancient stars, and the moon led the stars to shine brightly, as if competing with the sun, ignoring Xu Yue's shocking gaze, he said, "This is also light", and then pointed to the place where the eye could see, "This is still light." “

Xu Yue was at first at a loss, but soon became excited and said, "Teacher, I understand." ”

Wang Yangming said: "Don't be attached, the light is not only on the candle, remember this." ”

Xu Yue thanked him and left.

At that time, Wang Yangming and a group of apprentices around him discussed this matter, and a group of apprentices thought that Xu Yue's understanding was good, but his ideas were unique and whimsical.

But Wang Yangming is strong against public opinion, saying that the key to the unity of knowledge and action lies in motivation and action, when Wang Yangming was a teenager in Mengxue, he once said that the world's first-class ambition, that is, to become a saint, at that time everyone thought it was just a teenager's joke and whimsy.

But after a few years, who can hide the brilliance of Wang Yangming?

At that time, all the apprentices laughed at Xu Yue's ambition and delusional desire to ascend to the sky in one step, but Wang Yangming said a completely different truth: "In fact, the truth is always very simple, but it is difficult for people to act." The unity of knowledge and action, four big words, easy to say, difficult to do! It is like the distinction of turbidity, corrupt officials are like the sand of the Ganges River, which cannot be counted, and clean officials are like the clarity of the Yellow River, which is difficult to see. Everyone in the world knows that the evil of corrupt officials is to spurn corrupt officials, but in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, how can the greedy people have ever decreased? Everyone in the world praises it, the likes of clean officials, righteous and annihilated relatives, but inside and outside the court, how many people are so honest? ”

One of the protégés nodded and asked, "The unity of knowledge and action is still so difficult, how can we practice?" ”

Wang Yangming said again: "The sage book says, I am three times a day, and I am self-conscious. You wipe yourself every day, reflect on your own mistakes, and change your mistakes, how can you not achieve the unity of knowledge and action? ”

"If a scholar is upright and strict, his own thoughts will naturally become strong and pure. Even if you have never cultivated and cannot reach the ability of Taoist real people to travel thousands of miles at night, go out of your body, and call for wind and rain, you can still rely on a breath of Haoran to suppress Xiaoxiao and destroy evil spirits! ”

Everyone has just seen Wang Yangming's ability to change the world, and now they have heard Wang Yangming's experience on the road.

Everyone seems to be talking eloquently, but in fact, they have long admired Wang Yangming.

So he asked him the Taoist principle of cultivating the Heavenly Immortals and Yang Gods.

Wang Yangming said: "Yuanshen Avenue, Concentration, Out of the Shell, Night Tour, Day Tour, Exorcism, Manifestation, Possession, Ghosts, Immortals, Yang God, One Step and One Heavy Heaven, Yuan Shen Night Tour, Unable to Manifest, Human Eyes Can't See It, Formless and Qualitative, In the early stage, it still needs to be blessed by external objects to be able to manifest power, and to the Yang God realm, it is pure Yang Wuji, heaven and earth are returned to one thought, and the world is created and born, and the magic is endless." ”

Everyone listened fascinated, and wanted to ask more about cultivation.

"People walk humanely, and do not ask about ghosts and gods. Confucius said: The son is silent, and the strange force is chaotic. Now that I have talked to you about the secret of cultivation, I have already crossed the line, so I will stop this matter and stop mentioning it in the future. ”

"If a person has the power of ghosts and gods, if he does not have the luck of going against the heavens, he will be punished by heaven and it will be difficult to die well. Remember, you must not peep at the immortals in a mortal posture, otherwise, you will definitely die. ”

In this story, Jia Huan thought that Wang Yangming was really powerful, and with a wave of his hand, the stars shifted, and the stars captured the sun, and he learned the secret of Daomen cultivation, knew the Yuanshen Dao, and divided the cultivation level, which felt refreshing.

"Whew! To solve the many puzzles in my heart, this book is truly a book of God. ”

Jia Huan sighed with a long sigh in his heart.

Time passed, and many treacherous and bizarre cases and experiences appeared in Jia Huan's mind, making him hungry to supplement his knowledge and skills about the mysterious world of this world.

After a long time, Jia Huan put down the book, looked at Jia Dairu, got up, bowed his head and bent over, bowed his hands, and said sincerely: "Thank you to the teacher, the grace of teaching and preaching, Jia Huan has nothing to repay, and he should kowtow three times to thank the teacher." ”

After that, Jia Huan "bang-bang" kowtowed to Jia Dairu three times!

It can be regarded as a formal apprenticeship.

"Hurry up, please get up, I can accept you as a protégé in the twilight years, which can be regarded as a great luck for three lives."

Just as Jia Dairu pulled up Jia Huan, Jiao Da, who had been watching from the side for a long time, also walked out from outside, let out a hearty laugh, and said: "It is indeed a Qilinzi of Jiafu, quite a gentleman's style." ”

"The grace of dripping water, when the spring reciprocates, this son can make a great gift, and I will take care of one or two for Jiafu, with the kindness of the old master."

Jiao Da looked at Jia Huan, thought a little in his heart, and said.

Born in the army, the most loyal and righteous, Jia Huan can kowtow three times to thank his teacher, his heart is not bad, and he does not seem to be ungrateful.

When you can cultivate one or two.

When Jiao Da was pondering, Jia Huan looked up at this white-haired old man who walked in from outside the door, with white clothes and white hair, white beard and wide jawbones, and strong spirits, especially the momentum exuded from his body, like a hellish Shura, stormy waves, not angry and self-imposing, which people dare not underestimate.

Jia Huan frowned and got up calmly.

But he knew not what had come of this man.

Friend or foe?
