Chapter 4: The Messenger

Inside the pagoda.

Fairy light.

Thirty-six jade boxes appeared in the eyes.

It emits four different colors.

The most blazing is bright gold, there is only one, and the last five are pale gold, ten silver, and twenty white.

In the jade box, Song Zhishu didn't understand what was hidden, but looking at this fairy light, he could know it with his toes, and it was definitely not an ordinary thing.

Click.

It was also when Song Zhishu was excited.

A crisp sound sounded, and all the jade boxes seemed to be locked, and then the light disappeared, staggering and transposing at an extremely fast speed, making people dizzy, and they couldn't look directly at it at all.

Stay until a quarter of an hour later.

Thirty-six jade boxes stopped moving, and were silently suspended above the pagoda.

At the same time, a golden scripture appeared in front of me.

【Confucian Immortal Pagoda First Heavy】

There are thirty-six immortals inside.

With the ten Confucianism and Taoism righteousness, you can unlock and open the jade box immortal fate, if you get the treasure fairy fate, with the Confucian knowledge of the holy realm, you can go up the double pagoda, looking for the supreme immortal fate.

---

The scriptures don't contain much.

With just one glance, Song Zhishu clearly understood the role of this pagoda.

Possess the great world immortal fate, placed in the nine-fold pagoda, a pagoda has a treasure, if you are lucky, choose the treasure, with the Confucian realm can unlock the second one.

If you're unlucky, you'll have to unlock the thirty-six jade boxes.

"Ten Confucian righteousness?"

"Confucianism knows the holy realm?"

After the effect of the Mingwu Pagoda, Song Zhishu couldn't help frowning.

For Confucianism and Taoism, he really knows a little about it.

Most of the active dynasties of Confucianism, except for some major sect pujas, Confucian disciples rarely come to cultivate immortal sects.

And after more than ten years of inquiry, Confucianism in this world is indeed very strong, but there are not many of them, and there are various theories about why.

Confucianism is strong, speaks the law, listens to the heavens, changes the celestial phenomena, has great power, is born to be the nemesis of demons and evils, far better than the two religions of Taoism and Buddhism, so Confucianism is one of the three religions in the world.

It's just that there are very few people who practice Confucianism and Taoism, and compared to the Immortal Dao, you can practice with a spiritual root, which is nothing more than a difference between fast and slow.

Confucianism, on the other hand, focuses on understanding, and although everyone can learn it, the threshold is extremely high.

To say something ugly, there are many illiterate people in this Taihao Sword Sect, not because they can't learn, but because they are too lazy to learn.

Reading is a very abrasive thing in any era.

In addition, in the world of cultivating immortals, you can get all kinds of benefits if you have force, so why go to school?

Is it bad to just take shortcuts?

"It looks like I have to get to know Confucianism well."

Song Zhishu secretly said in his heart.

At the same time, he is now more curious about what Confucian righteousness is.

Ten Confucian righteousness can unlock a jade box.

How many ways do you have?

How do I get it?

These two questions are important.

Unable to think of an answer for a while, Song Zhishu could only search around to see if there was any information.

It's just that about two quarters of an hour later, after searching around, Song Zhishu found nothing.

"Confucian righteousness."

Song Zhishu stood in the pagoda, his eyes full of curiosity.

For a moment, I couldn't really guess what it was.

"Wait."

After a while, Song Zhishu thought of something, he calmed down, and then slowly stretched out his hand.

Immediately wisps of white mist filled the air.

This is the white aura obtained by writing articles every day, and I didn't know what it was before, but it can nourish the original spirit.

Now that it has been condensed, Song Zhishu understands that this thing may be Confucian righteousness.

Fifteen years of accumulation.

The white mist filled the air, turning into a gas as thick as a finger, emitting a faint white light, and finally adding up to a total of six.

"It's only six?"

Song Zhishu was a little stunned.

He didn't expect that after fifteen years of accumulation, there were only six Confucian righteousness?

In other words, if you want to open a jade box, it may take more than ten years.

This moment.

Huge disappointment struck, he could even accept to open the worst jade box, but he couldn't accept that he would have to wait for more than ten years.

Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty years old this year, and if you wait for another fifteen years, forty-five years old, even if you open the Immortal Yuan, I am afraid that it will be too late.

Unless you get the so-called Arcana.

"There are fifteen years in life."

Song Zhishu let out a long sigh.

There is unwillingness.

There is also discomfort.

But more of a disappointment.

I thought I got a treasure mountain.

But I never thought that the conditions would be so harsh.

What a hellish start.

"Do I really want to do nothing like this in my life?"

"Why does it have to be like this?"

"Why?"

Song Zhishu took a deep breath, he was full of unwillingness and anger.

Be quiet.

The tower was incredibly quiet.

Song Zhishu stood in place, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

But.

Fifteen years of traversal.

taught Song Zhishu too many things.

If it was fifteen years ago, Song Zhishu was only afraid that his Dao heart would collapse, but fifteen years of tempering made Song Zhishu's Dao heart much more stable.

Although it will still be affected, its self-regulation ability has become much stronger.

"There should be other ways to obtain Confucianism, Taoism, and righteousness."

"I can't be in too much of a hurry."

"If you want to hurry, you can't get there."

"Thinking about the good, there is not necessarily no other way."

"Thinking about the worst, fifteen years is fifteen years, it's better than no hope."

"In this life, it's already a good thing to be able to build a foundation."

Song Zhishu adjusted his mood as quickly as possible.

The impact of fairy fate is too great.

So let yourself have thoughts that you shouldn't have.

Building a foundation is already something that I can't pursue in my life, and now I rely on this pagoda, it stands to reason

If you think about it more, you will be greedy.

There is really a feeling of being satisfied with being the son of heaven and wanting to live forever.

Thoughts.

Song Zhishu did not continue to struggle.

waved his hand.

The six Confucian righteous qi did not enter the body.

Then leave towards the pagoda.

He didn't know if he would be able to return to reality by leaving the pagoda, but it was obviously not possible to stay here.

And when Song Zhishu walked out of the pagoda.

All of a sudden.

That feeling of dizziness came back again.

Then, the world swirled.

The next moment.

Familiar houses come into view.

Returned to the accommodation.

Quiet inside the house.

It was still pouring rain outside the window, beating on the eaves and windows.

Such heavy rain.

Song Zhishu didn't plan to go out.

Rest in peace at your accommodation.

The three jobs I received yesterday are not in a hurry for one or two days.

The immediate priority should be to study the pagoda in your mind.

"Confucianism."

Song Zhishu came to the desk of the book, and he wrote the words.

Confucianism and Taoism are divided into two parts, one is Confucianism before the pre-Qin period, and the other is Confucianism after the pre-Qin period.

The purpose is humanity, love and respect.

The meaning of Confucius is people-oriented.

Before the pre-Qin period, Confucianism was one of the hundred schools of thought, and there was no distinction between high and low.

But after the hundred schools, Confucianism was dominant, and after Dong Zhongshu proposed to respect Confucianism and depose the hundred schools, Confucianism completely evolved into a deeper 'Confucianism'.

Monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons.

Eight words, imprisoning the minds of the people of the world, is the strongest means of the rulers of the feudal dynasty, and there is almost no one.

Conquest by force is never as terrible as ideological confinement.

Think about it carefully, since the Han Dynasty, the monarch wanted his ministers to die, and the ministers had to die, throughout the long river of history.

"I don't know what Confucianism and Taoism are today."

"But according to the pagoda inside me, it obviously has nothing to do with domination."

"The true core of Confucianism, in the final analysis, is nothing more than benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith, the root of the five constants."

"The Confucian righteousness condensed in the body may have something to do with this."

Song Zhishu pondered in his heart.

He now wants to understand how to attain Confucian righteousness

Conventional Confucian imprisonment is certainly irrelevant.

When it comes to righteousness.

Then this qi is naturally Haoran righteousness.

"Heaven and earth have righteousness, and miscellaneous manifolds."

"The lower ones are the river mountains, and the upper ones are the sun stars."

Song Zhishu muttered to himself.

This is a song of righteousness.

It's about what Haoran righteousness is.

And in the Chinese civilization, Mencius was the first to put forward the righteousness of Haoran.

"Dare to ask the master how evil he is?"

He said: "I know what I say, and I am good at nurturing my heroic spirit."

Song Zhishu once understood it seriously.

Haoran righteousness is a kind of mysterious and mysterious positive energy, this kind of energy, the impact is great, it is invisible, but it is everywhere, and there is no race, only good and evil.

Those who are benevolent and righteous will have righteousness.

If a righteous person has a corresponding morality, then he has a great righteousness.

"The righteousness in my body should not be Haoran righteousness."

"Thinking about it carefully, in the past fifteen years, although I have not done anything wrong or bad, I can't talk about benevolence and righteousness, although I am not a villain, but there is no such thing as high morality."

"Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith."

Song Zhishu savored these five words.

An hour later.

Song Zhishu frowned slightly, but he still didn't know where to start.

He understands everything.

But it is precisely because I understand that I will be confused.

"I don't understand benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith, in the final analysis, I just know what benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith are."

"To truly understand is to be clear, to know."

"But from now on, I have to think about this issue carefully, and I can't be busy running around, copying articles, and finding new ways as before."

"You can't be in too much of a hurry now."

"If you want to hurry, you can't get there."

"We need to be down-to-earth, to deal with all changes with the same, and to face everything with a normal heart."

In front of the desk, Song Zhishu felt his confusion and made a solution as soon as possible.

Ordinary heart.

Bang bang.

Bang bang.

Just as Song Zhishu was thinking, a hurried knock on the door sounded, which made Song Zhishu come back to his senses.

Get up and push open the door.

He was a middle-aged man, dressed in a blue cloth shirt with the words 'Jinling Messenger' embroidered on his chest.

But he was soaked and looked extremely miserable.

"Immortal Chief."

"This is your reply."

"It's raining heavily outside, and it may be a little wet, so you take the responsibility, and the small ones are not intentional."

The messenger was full of apologies, worried that Song Zhishu would be angry.

He's just a mortal.

In the face of monks, even if they are monks at the second level of Qi cultivation, they dare not offend.

The main thing is that no one expected this sudden heavy rain.

"It's okay, it's raining too suddenly."

"Wait a minute."

Song Zhishu looked at the other party soaking wet and took out a paper umbrella from the room.

"Take it."

"Be careful on the road."

Song Zhishu has nothing to give, he can't bear to give Lingzhu, the only thing he can help is to lend an umbrella to the other party.

To put it mildly, I am also a poor person, how can I help?

"This ......."

The latter was visibly stunned.

He didn't expect Song Zhishu to be so good at talking, and he also gave him an umbrella.

Umbrellas are not worth much.

But this kind of treatment made him inexplicably moved.

He was just a messenger, a mortal, and lived in Bright Moon City.

These monks and immortals, in his eyes, are all high, even if they are monks at the first level of Qi cultivation, as long as they are monks, then their class has been clearly demarcated.

The distinction between the upper and lower levels is deep-rooted, and no monk can afford to look down on mortals, and of course he will not take the initiative to trouble mortals.

Because no one is going to trouble the ants.

"Thank you, Immortal."

"But I still don't want this umbrella."

"It's a bit presumptuous to ask for a paper umbrella if you hurt the letter."

"Don't be afraid to get wet, just go back and wash your body."

The middle-aged man smiled and hurriedly refused.

"Even if I have an umbrella to cover some letters, just because I'm gentle doesn't mean that others are the same."

"Take it."

"It's not worth anything."

Song Zhishu handed the paper umbrella to the other party again.

"This."

"Little one, thank you for growing up."

"Tomorrow will come and give it back."

The messenger smiled, did not twist and pinch, took the paper umbrella and retired.

Just as the messenger was leaving.

Wisps of white mist.

Poor self-confidence is submerged in one's own body.

In a flash.

Song Zhishu was surprised.
