I don't know where I started, I don't know where I went.

Ji Zhao sleeps quietly here, there is no up and down, left and right, time never flows, and all the rules are in chaos.

Ji Zhao fell asleep, and the whole world slept with him.

Then he woke up.

There was light in this world, chaos turned into order, he opened his eyes, and what he saw was the fragrant peach blossoms all over the mountains, and there was a wooden house under the peach forest.

"Lao Tzu? O near-path! ”

This is the first time that Ji Zhao has woken up because of the people of the Feiluo clan, he never thought that his existence would be observed, this is unreasonable, but Lao Tzu may be reasonable.

Ji Zhao looked at the majestic luck accumulated for more than two hundred years, except for using it to exert the blessing of the ancestors, it has not been touched for a long time, and it is worth using it to see Lao Tzu today.

"Luo Yan." Ji Zhao called softly.

Luo Yan suddenly heard this, knelt directly on the ground, bowed his head and said, "Old Ancestor." ”

Li Er's body trembled, and endless waves were set off in his heart, and he felt that the truth of the world was about to unfold in front of him.

O Su King!

Are you really a god who lives forever and lives with the sky?

If you really exist, can Haotian still be ruthless and desireless?

Even if Hao Tiantian is really just a law of nature, but what about you? How many times have you interfered in human affairs?

"Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs; The saints are unkind, and they use the people as dogs. ”

Li Er raised his head and muttered.

Heaven and earth are selfless, they will not favor anyone, the way of heaven is inactive, and the development of the way of heaven can last for a long time.

Heaven is not God, Tao is not God, learn the selfless way of heaven, use the way of heaven to replace humanity, this is the foundation of his theory, the appearance of King Su, let Li Er doubt his theory a little.

If the Heavenly Dao is not selfless in the first place, then what is the difference between the Heavenly Dao and humanity?

"Boyang Gong, you asked Haotian if he had affection, would you like to elaborate on your cognition?"

Li Er came back to his senses, and he understood that this was King Su asking himself.

"There is heaven and humanity in the world, heaven is selfless, humanity has desires, heaven is eternal, humanity is short-sighted......"

Ji Zhao listened quietly, this set of theories was actually very different from the previous life, and it was full of fragmentation.

Lear is a person who is close to the Tao, he sees the operation of the Great Dao, he sees the operation of the rules, and he holds the key to thought.

Then he saw that King Su was between heaven and man!

This confused his thoughts, King Su should not have appeared, but existence is the truth, so he thought that there was a mistake in the heaven and earth he observed.

As Li Er's voice gradually disappeared, through Luo Yan's mouth, Ji Zhao began to explain the Tao Te Ching to him.

This is the world without Ji Zhao, Lear's cognition of heaven and earth, and the cognition of the real world.

"King Su!"

As Ji Zhao talked more and more, Li Er couldn't help but sigh: "I see, heaven and earth are not benevolent, only you are special." ”

What Ji Zhao said was similar to Li Er's eight layers, but the core of it was completely different, and it was not affected by the slightest divine influence, which swept away all the doubts in Li Er's heart.

This was the answer given to him by King Su.

Haotian is ruthless!

The avenue is selfless!

This is the truth of heaven and earth, but the existence of the king is another reason, you use the principle of heaven and earth to observe the king, this is a contradiction.

The truth of heaven and earth is there, but the truth of King Su is changing all the time and is unpredictable.

A smile finally appeared on Li Er's always calm face, his eyes became deeper, and his expression was more calm, like a mountain.

Chaowen said, death can be carried out.

Ji Zhao left here and returned to his own world, and he was a little expecting what version of the Tao Te Ching Li Er would be able to perfect.

Seeing the old ancestor leaving, Luo Yan immediately said: "Boyang Gong must have an understanding, you have been serving as the keeper for decades.

I think I have already read these books, and I can't help you anymore, there are far more books in the country of Los Angeles than these.

From the oracle bones that existed in the Yin Shang period to the records of the wise men of the school palace in the past dynasties, there is a treasure house of wisdom in the world, and there must be what you want.

If you are willing to serve as the sacrificial wine of the Academy, I am even willing to promise you to take out the scriptures of King Su for you to read. ”

This is what Li Er originally wanted, he wanted to read more of the classics of King Su, as well as the classics of Ming Gong, only in this way could he make better classics.

So he responded: "According to what the prince said, he served as the sacrifice wine of the school palace, but I don't know if the sages of the school palace are willing." ”

Luo Yan said with a smile: "Your talent is thorough, your wisdom is the best in ancient and modern, you are the bright moon in the sky, they are just fluorescent the size of rice beads."

If I really don't open my eyes to meet you, I'm afraid that I will bow to you between my hands. ”

Luo Yan praised Li Er without hesitation, this was the truest feeling in his heart.

Luo's inheritance has been passed down for 500 years, and many family heads can only see King Su in front of the sting, which is why Luo Ci is not afraid of death.

Luo Wengong, Luo Xuan Gong, and Luo Ming Gong, who saw King Su before his death, were all the most outstanding heads of the Luo family.

The high level of Lear's wisdom can be seen.

Returning to the kingdom of Luo, Luo Yan took Li Er to the storage room of the kingdom of Luo.

When the door opened, Li Er, a saint who was not shocked, also had a slight ripple in the calm lake in his eyes.

"Prince, the learning of the world is all due to Luo!"

Luo Yan smiled when he heard this: "Before today, it was all due to Luo."

When I saw Boyang Gong, I realized that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky.

If there is no of your scriptures in the Tibetan room of Luoguo, how dare you call it the learning of the world? ”

Li Er walked into the storage room, and Luo Yan immediately went to see his father, informed Luo Ci of this matter, and brought all the two versions of the Tao Te Ching.

After reading it for half a day, Luo Ci sighed: "It's just a few thousand words, but it can say all the truth of the world, and this book is enough to be the reason of all things!"

No wonder King Su is willing to meet, this is the real sage, not comparable to mortals like us. ”

The Principle of All Things.

How high is that?

Even Luo Minggong's Wang Badao, which is enough to calm the troubled times and prosper the world, has not received such an evaluation.

Because what Luo Minggong wrote, after all, is still the art of rule, which is based on the classics of King Su, and is summarized from it, maybe the monarch will like it very much, such as getting the treasure, but for Luo's family, it is not enough.

But what Li Er is writing now is the source of the truth, the embodiment of the way of heaven, and even points out the way from man to heaven, and even in the text, they see the shadow of King Su.

After Li Er came to Luoguo, he plunged into the storage room of the Luoguo Mansion and stayed for three months before he finished reading the classics written by King Su.

He walked out of the storage room, and he was going to the palace of the school to serve as a sacrificial wine.

This is the division of the country of Luo.

The school palace festival wine in Luoguo is a very special location.

He does not directly hold political power like Dr. Qing, but no one dares to ignore it, because the sacrificial wine is the teacher of all the students in Luoguo.

In the country of Luo, whether it is the Gong clan or the Qing clan, they will enter the public school to study, if the knowledge of sacrificial wine can conquer everyone, the horror of political energy is unimaginable.

There were once three sacrificial wines who once ascended to the large mound of Luoguo and became big people under one person and above ten thousand people.

Li Er was an outsider, but everyone knew that he was specially invited by the crown prince from Wangji.

This must be a great man!

This is the common idea of everyone, and the public office has never made a mistake in the choice of sacrificial wine, and all the sacrificial wine so far are virtuous and talented nobles.

But everyone wants to see, what is this great sage good at?

In the midst of all the attention, Li Er came to the School Palace, after two hundred years of expansion, the area of this School Palace has become large like a palace.

Luo Yan personally took Li Er to the school palace, and hundreds of noble children sat on their seats, all dressed in uniform dark clothes, all of them bowed their hands solemnly, and gathered in wide robes.

Luo Yan said with some pride: "Boyang Gong, among these hundreds of students, fifty percent are the children of the Luo Kingdom, they are all pillars, but they are not willing to go out, they are only willing to study the truth of heaven and earth here. ”

The princes of Luoguo are talented, which is famous in all countries, and the monarchs of many countries like to invite talents from the Luoguo Academy, but many of the children of the princes are unwilling to go out.

Most of those who came out of the country were scholars from all over the world who came to study, and their wish was to learn the art of dragon slaying, and then get the king's weight and display their ambitions.

Many people in the Luoguo clan have been poor all their lives, just to annotate the "Luo language" and countless classics of the school palace, hoping to be able to make a word of sanctification.

The temptation to speak up is far greater than the situation of going to a country to serve as a doctor or a ruler.

When Luo Yan walked in with Li Er, all the teachers and students stood up, bowed down and said, "The prince is healthy." ”

Luo Yan bowed deeply and returned the salute, "Everyone is well." ”

Fu pointed at Li Er and said: "Everyone, this is Boyang Gong, a great sage, a sage as King Su said, but that's it!" ”

The whole hall seemed to be silent for a moment.

Sages?

What a compliment!

The ceremony cannot be abolished, especially in the Luoguo Academy, no matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, they still say in unison: "Boyang Gong, I wish you good health!" ”

As Li Er returned the salute, everyone looked at the old man who was called a sage by the crown prince, and everyone who looked at Li Er couldn't help but be attracted by his eyes.

His eyes are like mountains and seas, but his temperament is soft and tough.

It's really extraordinary, everyone said secretly in their hearts.

Luo Yan was already a little impatient to see the scene where Li Er convinced everyone.

After the two of them sat down, a student immediately got up and asked Li Er: "Boyang Gong, you are a sage invited by the monarch and the crown prince, you must be a virtuous person, I don't know what you think of virtue?" ”

Virtue is emphasized in the "Luo Yu", Luo Xiu believes that it is very simple for the country to be strong, but the country is strong and at the same time makes the people happy and healthy, it must rely on the power of virtue.

The law was made so that all people should be virtuous, so those who are not virtuous are to be punished and those who are virtuous are to be commended.

So how to become a virtuous person is the top priority, so he asked Li Er how to be a virtuous person, which was not an embarrassment, but really wanted to ask.

Li Er's expression did not change, and he said calmly: "Noble virtue is like water, which is beneficial to all things but does not fight with all things. ”

Good as water!

This is an argument that has never been heard before, but with Li Er's elaboration, everyone in the academy found themselves easily convinced.

Because this idea shines with wisdom, anyone who hears it will feel that there is truth in it.

This is one of the strongest parts of the Tao Te Ching, and its language is persuasive.

Another student stood up and asked, "Boyang Gong, you are a sage, what should a sage do?" ”

Li Er replied: "The reason why beautiful things are beautiful is because there is ugliness; The reason why the good are good is because of the existence of unkindness.

The existence of sages is because of the existence of unvirtuous people, if there are no unvirtuous people, then everyone is a sage, don't praise virtuous people too much, this is not in line with the principle of heaven and earth. ”

This remark can be called an earth-shattering statement, and virtuous people have always been admired, especially in the various commentaries of the "Luo Yu", which is full of debates between virtuous and unvirtuous.

These students have always received this kind of education, and they are a little unacceptable to Li Er's remarks, but Li Er naturally will not just output opinions.

In his countless examples, the students found that Li Er did not disrespect the sages, but believed that the pursuit of the sages should not be excessive.

Once the normal limit is exceeded, the sages are given too high status, and the sages are given power and prestige, then a kind of atmosphere will be formed in society.

The pursuit of sages will change from the sublimation of the ideological level to the struggle for power and profit in reality, which is not conducive to social stability.

From early morning to evening, the maids changed the food back and forth, and hundreds of people tirelessly asked questions to Li Er here.

Lear knows everything, he can always say something logical and self-consistent, and he can vaguely contain the truth they have learned in the past.

Good as water!

This Boyang Gong practices this truth with himself, his thoughts are inclusive of all things, and his wisdom perceives everything.

Everyone had already thrown themselves to the ground for Li Er's admiration, and Luo Yan asked the waiter to record all today's conversations, and he got a copy of the original annotation of the Tao Te Ching for nothing, which couldn't help but make him unhappy.

"Boyang Gong, you are a real sage, is there any truth in this world that you don't understand?" A student just finished asking a question and said with some emotion.

Li Er was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "I wrote five thousand words of the Tao Te Ching, and I studied the truth of the world, but I don't know how to explain everything about King Su. ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience instantly boiled over, and then suddenly fell silent.

The wisdom of the king is as holy as the sky.

The character of the prime king, the supreme and noble.

Everything in King Su is taken for granted, and there is no need to think about it.

As the bell rang, the name of the sage of Li Er spread to the countries of the four directions along with some fragments of debate, and countless scholars who were confused about the world came to the Luoguo Academy.

A new era has begun.

There are still 2,000 words in the afternoon
