Chapter 509: Trial
Taoist thought, the principle of doing things is not to be burdened by external things, go with the flow, and rule by doing nothing. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Therefore, Su Lin also understood this, so he deliberately used "joining the Su Society" as a condition to see if this champion Lang Zhuang was really "not burdened by foreign things".
If Zhuang Buxiu agreed to join the Su Society, then he can be regarded as violating the Taoist heart, which shows that his Taoist heart is not stable enough.
However, if Zhuang Buxiu refused, then he would lose the opportunity to observe the soul of the Tao Te Ching.
It can be said that this can be regarded as the trade-off problem that Mencius said "fish and bear's paws, you can't have both"!
The students below who were slightly involved in Taoist thought also understood Su Lin's deep meaning almost immediately after laughing.
"President Su's move is so powerful!"
"Yes! The most feared attack on cultivating the mind comes from the attack and temptation of one's own essential thoughts. ”
"Su Lin's move is impartial and square, and it is the origin of Taoist thought. Zhuang Buxiu is in a dilemma this time, but he has to suffer. ”
"According to me, President Su's move is both a bad move and a good move. If this Zhuang Buxiu does not have enough thinking himself, and because of such a choice, which leads to the defect of thinking, then he has nothing to say. But if Zhuang Buxiu can overcome this hurdle, then he will be able to go further......"
……
Although these students didn't know what Su Lin used to lure Zhuang Buxiu, seeing Zhuang Buxiu's embarrassed appearance was enough to know that this thing was not light on him.
"Brother Ye, how do you think this village is endless, how will you choose?"
Su Ye knew about Su Lin's acquisition of the soul of the Tao Te Ching, so when he faced Su Lin's question, he simply said three words: "He will come!"
"Oh, will it come? Not necessarily!"
What the soul of the Tao Te Ching means to Taoist disciples is completely self-evident, so Su Ye used his own Zonghengjia thoughts to weigh the pros and cons, and naturally felt that this was a very cost-effective deal.
However, Su Lin didn't think so, the sage Lao Tzu can give up all the prosperity and hustle and bustle of the world, and ride the green ox to the west, and many Taoist disciples are also willing to live in seclusion in the mountains all the year round, and do not ask about the world's Qing Xiu, which represents that the way of thinking of Taoist Confucian scholars is very different from that of ordinary Confucian scholars.
Sure enough, after struggling for a while, the Zhuang Bunong brow gradually loosened gently, and then thanked Su Lin: "Thank you President Su for your kindness, and I will leave without stopping!"
After speaking, Zhuang Buxiu walked directly through the crowd with ease, went straight out from the gate of Guozijian, and continued his penance.
This time, almost everyone present was dumbfounded.
"Zhuang Buxiu just left?"
"Why is this champion Lang's temper still so stinky? President Su kindly invited him to join the Su Society!"
"Besides, it's not impossible to negotiate anymore!"
……
Many students didn't understand Zhuang Buxiu's approach, but it was a Jinshi who had a more spiritual mind and found some clues from the demeanor of Zhuang Buxiu when he left.
"What's the matter? Did you just find out? When Zhuang Buxiu left, his expression was so comfortable and relaxed!"
"Yes, this is really a strange thing, obviously he didn't borrow President Su's thing! Why are you so happy in turn?"
"This is the strangeness of Taoism! I heard that many Taoist Confucian scholars will go to the coast of the East China Sea to watch the sunrise on the sea for a year! Some Taoist Confucian scholars will stay in the mountains all year round in order to see some wild ** breeding in the mountains, and stay in the mountains all year round......
……
It is true that the Confucian scholars of Taoism are regarded as outliers in the eyes of all Confucian scholars, but no one can do anything about them, because they don't care about anything, and sometimes they don't even care about their own cultivation and life.
It seems that in their world, this feeling of "not caring" is what they care about the most.
"Really gone?"
Seeing this, Su Ye was also taken aback, because Su Lin's prediction just now was completely accurate.
At the same time, Su Ye also had some worries: "Su Lin, have we offended this Zhuang Bu endlessly? After all, he is the champion of the previous session. ”
As the inheritor of the Zongheng family's ideology, Su Ye suffers more from gains and losses in his thoughts, and generally wants to unite all the forces that can help, so he will express such feelings.
However, Su Lin laughed and said, "Are you offended?" Brother Ye, didn't you hear that Zhuang Buxiu was thanking me?"
"Thank you, that's just a kind word!"
In Su Ye's opinion, Zhuang Buxiu's "thank you" was just used to politely reject Su Lin's wooing.
However, in fact, this sentence of "thank you" has two meanings, the first is to politely refuse Su Lin's wooing, indicating that he does not want to join the Su Society. The second layer is to thank Su Lin for this invitation, because Su Lin threw out such an invitation, which made him more aware of the essence of quiet and inaction.
"Brother Ye, do you think that Zhuang Buxiu came to me to ask for that thing, and I really lent him that thing, so it was really good for him?"
Su Lin squinted, shook his head and said, "Actually, from the moment he returned to the country, he had already gone astray. ”
"What? Gone astray? What does that mean?"
Su Lin's voice was very loud, and the students around him also looked over one after another, and they all expressed their doubts about what Su Lin said.
However, Su Lin said unhurriedly: "There are smart people among you who can see that my invitation to Zhuang Bu just now is not a real invitation, but a test of his choice. But, did you know that in fact, this test was not thrown by me, nor was it thrown at the present moment, but already existed when Zhuang Bu Xiu returned? ”
Crash!
Hearing Su Lin say this, everyone was like a burst of enlightenment, and they suddenly woke up.
The students who can enter the Guozijian are not stupid, who is not a smart person, with Su Lin's reminder, they also remembered.
Before, when Na Zhuang walked over, his steps were a little heavy, but his breath was restrained but exuded a dull lowness. However, when it came time to leave, it was so relaxed.
This shows that Na Zhuang has not stopped, in fact, he has taken a wrong step from the time he decided to come back and ask Su Lin for something to borrow. However, Su Lin's invitation once again gave him the opportunity to torture his heart, and as a result, he thought about it and embarked on the right path again......
