Chapter 467: Uniting the Hundred Schools

In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere became very depressing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info The people stared at Xiao Yi, the rebellion in their eyes rose rapidly, and once Xiao Yi misresponded, he would definitely attract a fierce counterattack.

provoked the anger of the public, and at that time, Xiao Yi would have a full stomach, but I am afraid that he will be powerless.

Xiao Yi's success or failure is directly related to the reputation of Taoism. Changyang Zhenren also saw Xiao Yi's danger, so he endured his casual way and fully supported Xiao Yi.

However, when the Taoist people were solemn and worried about Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi smiled slightly and asked rhetorically: "The situation that Senior Yu said is still the situation in the past when the Legalists were in power, right?"

Yu Linfeng said: "Not bad." The fall of Legalism can be learned from history. ”

That Han Li's face was sad and angry, but he dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.

Xiao Yi immediately said: "In the past, the Legalists' harsh punishment and strict law were only intended to dominate the people with severe punishment. And when I talk about the punishment lord virtue and auxiliary today, I am using punishment to promote virtue, how can I generalize?"

Yu Linfeng was stunned for a moment, as if he understood a little, and said, "I would like to hear the details." ”

Xiao Yi faced the people and said: "In the past, the criminal law was only followed by the ruler, and the feelings of the people were never considered. Nominally, its law is the law of the world, but in reality, its law is only the law of the ruler. Everything is for the benefit of the ruler, how can such a law convince the people? And the law that Xiao Yi said is based on virtue, and all the laws are for the purpose of making the people understand virtue and virtue. ”

Hearing this, the people also seemed to understand a little, and their mood eased slightly.

Xiao Yi continued: "In today's world, we are chasing fame for the upper and profit-seeking for the lower. As the saying goes, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked. Because the superior is not virtuous, the people no longer know what virtue is, and in the face of all kinds of temptations, how can they hold on? At this time, the people's will deviates from the matter, and the key is that the people's heart is impetuous, and there are very few people who can listen to the Tao and repent on their own. The trend of 'no virtue' is already higher than the trend of 'Chongde'. From good as flow, from evil as collapse. If we continue to follow the ancient law and only teach moderates, the result will not only not be able to remedy the situation, but will make it worse. ”

Those who can come from thousands of miles to hear the Tao are higher in wisdom than ordinary people, and they can still understand Xiao Yi's words. Moreover, among the people, there are many people who are not accustomed to the status quo of the world, and they are confused, so they come to hear the Taoist seekers, listen to Xiao Yi's words, and feel in their hearts, and then gradually calm down.

Xiao Yi always pays attention to the changes of the people, and when he talks about this, he can't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, I heard Nayu Linfeng say: "Even if there is no virtue in the world, but it is enough to use the criminal law as an auxiliary, why should you inflict severe punishment?"

Xiao Yi asked rhetorically: "Xiao Yi heard that Confucianism implements the teaching of morality and punishment, let me ask, are the people in Qingzhou virtuous?"

Yu Linfeng was stunned for a moment, speechless, thinking of the situation in Qingzhou and the internal affairs of Confucianism, and suddenly sighed.

Xiao Yi suddenly said sharply: "Fierce medicine to get rid of scabies, heavy canons to control chaos." Only by using heavy punishment to create a deterrent force can the people be able to know evil in a short period of time and quickly curb unhealthy tendencies. ”

The people finally understood, and they were suddenly surprised.

Yu Linfeng was still worried: "In this way, the people are only afraid of heavy punishment and dare not make mistakes, it is not that they cannot achieve enlightenment." ”

Xiao Yi smiled and said: "Confucianism has no class, and the teaching of benevolence and virtue is unparalleled at that time. At that time, it shouldn't be difficult for Confucianism to make the people enlightened, right?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they realized that what Xiao Yi was talking about was not only the way of Taoism, but also thought: "This son has a great plan." ”

Then, Xiao Yi looked at the audience and said: "Let the people see morality, all the sons and hundreds of schools have their own ways, and the ways and methods are different, but here Xiao Yi must state one point." Before teaching, you must find your own way, and you must not act arbitrarily. ”

"Your own way?" the families looked at each other, not knowing what Xiao Yi meant by this.

Xiao Yi said again: "The teachings of all families have their own strengths, but they also have their own disadvantages. Previously, Xiao Yi has already said that if we want to return the world to the world of virtue, we must abandon the propositions of all families, so that the people only know the virtue, but do not know the virtue of whom. Even so, in terms of the law of morality and education, all schools of thought should also put aside their prejudices, learn from each other's strengths, promote each other's weaknesses, and unite with hundreds of schools of thought to change the current situation. ”

"How is this possible?"

As soon as the sound fell, a voice of doubt suddenly sounded among the hundred schools.

Virtue is virtue, which is virtue, regardless of family affiliation. Therefore, when Xiao Yi mentioned the basic morality just now, the reaction of the schools was not strong.

But when it comes to the union of the hundred schools, the disciples of the hundred schools are as if they have heard a big joke. If it weren't for Xiao Yi's good performance just now, he has always been eloquent, and he is not a person who talks nonsense, but I am afraid that he would have already spoken ridiculously.

In fact, when Xiao Yi commented on the ways of the schools just now, he analyzed the ways very thoroughly, and already showed the world that the ways are not hostile, but actually have the meaning of promoting each other. But the matter of uniting a hundred schools of thought was too shocking, and the disciples had never heard of it, and their first reaction was naturally unbelievable.

However, who would have thought that Xiao Yi originally wanted to say "fusion", not "union", but when the words came to his lips, considering the reaction of the hundreds of schools, he changed his words in time. Despite this, with such a reaction, if you really say the words of "integrating the way of a hundred schools", I don't know how much storm it will set off.

The head of the miscellaneous family said righteously: "The word 'union' is easy to say. Do you know that the way of a hundred schools of thought is all-encompassing, broad and profound, vast as a sea of smoke, and full of sweat. There are many contradictions in the ways of various schools, and they cannot be separated. Unite 100 schools?hum...... This is a rhetoric, not a rhetoric!"

Miscellaneous families run through hundreds of schools, dabble in the ways of all schools, and know the difficulties of uniting hundreds of schools. But listening to a small Taoist disciple dare to say that he unites a hundred schools, where does this put the face of the miscellaneous family?

The disciples of all the families also nodded, and it was rare to be consistent with the miscellaneous families.

Although the people did not dare to speak out against Xiao Yi's invisible deterrence, the look of doubt in their eyes was no less than that of the disciples of the other families.

At the same time, the Taoist disciples also showed signs of concern. In their opinion, this topic is too big, and it is impossible to deal with the past with Xiao Yi's strength anyway.

Faced with the doubts of the people of the world and the loss of the support of his family, Xiao Yi glanced at the audience, but suddenly burst out laughing.

The audience was stunned for a moment, and then thought: "This son can't think of a response for a while, so he is in a hurry, and he is crazy?"

However, Xiao Yi laughed, but suddenly laughed and said: "The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, what the predecessors can't do, can we never do it? I don't even have this point, mind and courage, how dare I talk in front of the people of the world? It's really ridiculous." ”

"Boy, you ......" The corpse was furious, pointing at Xiao Yi, so excited that he couldn't speak, and he couldn't wait to step forward and fight with force.

Although Xiao Yi's words were quite arrogant, they were extremely shocking. When the other hundred disciples heard this, they were deeply touched and suddenly felt embarrassed. (To be continued.) )
