Chapter 258: Lost

"The human beings of the two worlds are originally of the same origin, and their traditional consciousness is the same. However, due to the difference in climate between the two worlds, the difference is getting bigger and bigger. Speaking of which, I have to say that before the catastrophe, the situation in Kyushu. Xuanwu Zhenren said unhurriedly, "In the past Kyushu, yin and yang were mixed, and yang energy was the majority, somewhat similar to the climate in the depths of a million mountains. In the beginning, humans and beasts were equal, and all things competed for dominance, although human beings were weak, but they were superior in their wisdom, and they lived in groups to keep warm, and jointly resisted the beasts, and gradually became the master of Kyushu. The so-called, Cang Liao knows etiquette, food and clothing and knows honor and disgrace. After the well-being of human life, various ideas collided, and there was a grand occasion of a hundred schools of thought contending. ”

Nowadays, Kyushu is controlled by nine schools such as Taoism, Confucianism, and Mo, and in addition, Xiao Yi has also heard of novelists and the like, which is far from the theory of a hundred schools. But thinking about the grand scene of a hundred schools of thought contending and competing for beauty in the past, Xiao Yi was a little excited, and he couldn't wait to be born ten thousand years ago, read a lot of books, and see the style of the ancients.

Xuan Wu Zhenren continued: "At that time, the life of the common people was much backward compared with today, but human beings were influenced by various cultures, their thoughts were full, and their morals were noble, and they were far more comfortable and happy than human beings now. Although there are often disputes, it is the process of common enlightenment, and there are no personal grievances. The surface is contradictory, but the heart is one. ”

At that time, the power of heaven and earth was very heavy, and although all the sects practiced the Tao in their spare time, in order to strengthen their bodies and better participate in the Dao of Enlightenment, they all set the same rule: only the virtuous learn it. That is to say, cultivating truth first cultivates virtue, and practicing the Tao first cultivates the heart. ”

Hearing this, Zou Ji was a little impatient, and secretly thought: "It's just to strengthen the body, so what's the point?" Lin Yuehe's expression remained unchanged. Placid. Xiao Yi and Jing Shu both showed their yearning for it, and they were deeply attracted by it, and said in their hearts: "Cultivating the truth first cultivates virtue, and practicing the Tao first cultivates the heart, and it should be so." ”

Xuanwu Zhenren was also very touched, and paused for a long time. sighed: "At that time, Kyushu was simple and simple, and the people were kind, which was really a fairyland on earth. ”

Bingque suddenly interjected and interrupted: "Didn't you say before that heaven and earth are constantly evolving naturally? Why are you so nostalgic again? Do you think that today's evolution is evolving to the bad?"

Xuanwu is really humane: "Poor Dao felt it for a while, which made the ice lord laugh. There is a saying in the Book of Changes that the world has the same end but different paths, and the same and all considerations. There are many kinds of processes, some right and some wrong, some good and some bad. The result is unanimous. Now, Kyushu is in a relatively bad stage in the process of evolution, and the poor road is just a little prejudiced. ”

Bingque was stunned for a moment, and after a few circles in his mind, he didn't understand the meaning of Xuanwu's real words, snorted coldly, and stopped talking.

Then, Xuanwu Zhenren returned to the truth and preached: "In the past. The cultivation methods of all schools are both yin and yang, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. Transform the yin and yang of heaven and earth. In particular, the Taoist Tai Chi, the Yin and Yang Five Elements Bagua and other exercises, secretly in line with the way of heaven and earth, unfathomable, exquisite, can be called the crystallization of human wisdom. But. After the catastrophe, the aura of heaven and earth underwent great changes, the yin energy dissipated, and the yang energy flourished. Most of the exercises were no longer in place and had to be stopped. Among them. There are some wise people who have improved the original exercises, abandoned the method of Yin Qi cultivation, and cultivated the Yang Dao alone. This cultivation is not tight, but he has cultivated a capable man who flies to the sky, which shocks the world. ”

"In the past, although people also claimed to be able to fly to the sky and enter the ground, they were actually only three feet above the ground, which is very different from today's achievements in cultivating the truth. ”

As a result, all the sects followed suit and improved the exercises. Speaking of this, Xuanwu Zhenren looked sad and said sadly, "Just in order to fly to the sky, the crystallization of wisdom over the past tens of millions of years has changed beyond recognition in just a few years." ”

When Xiao Yi heard this, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart, as if he had lost a beloved treasure.

Xuanwu Zhenren continued: "For a while, Kyushu set off a craze for cultivating the true Tao. The sects no longer concentrate on the study of knowledge, but focus most of their energy on cultivating the true path. After that, there were less verbal arguments between the various factions, and more of them used spells to compete with each other. Hundreds of schools of thought are still contending, but the taste has changed. Later, the various factions began to compete for territory, forming the current situation of the nine factions in charge of Kyushu. ”

The mockery in Xuanwu's real words is very obvious, and everyone can hear it. I only heard Bingque say: "Xuanwu Zhenren is talking about the ancestors like this, is it against the norm?"

Xuanwu Zhenren disagreed and said: "The Tao is the Tao, but it is not the constant Tao." The poor way is the way of things, and everything in the world can be said. What's more, rushing for quick success and quick profit is not taken by people in the first place. The ancestors were wrong in this way. Poor Michi admits that after the catastrophe, Kyushu has indeed become better, the people are healthy, and everything is happy, but human beings, as primates, have become impatient and lost. ”

Although Xiao Yi didn't know what kind of state human beings were in ten thousand years ago, he thought of the Taoist practice of emphasizing Taoism and ignoring Taoism, and felt that Xuanwu Zhenren was in his words, and couldn't help but nod.

Xuanwu Zhenren was slightly relieved when he saw Xiao Yi's appearance, and said: "You haven't been to the (lower) netherworld, so you don't feel deeply, and you think that the poor road is open." ”

Xiao Yi couldn't help but think, "What does this have to do with the (below) netherworld?"

I only listened to Xuanwu Zhenrendao: "The people of the (below) netherworld just rely on their memories to sort out the crystallization of wisdom left by human ancestors for thousands of years. However, until now, the (lower) netherworld has maintained these traditions and essences. ”

Everyone looked at each other in amazement.

Xuanwu Zhenren took a deep breath and said, "Do you know that nine times out of ten, people in the (below) Netherworld will not live to be forty years old. It is just because they insist on the dual cultivation of yin and yang, resulting in a lack of yang energy in the body, and the yin and yang are out of balance, and they all die young. ”

Hearing this, everyone was moved and awe-inspired.

Zou Ji was surprised and said: "Why don't the people in the netherworld know how to be flexible?

Xuanwu Zhenren asked: "What is the old way, what is the innovation?"

Zou Ji was dumbfounded, speechless, stunned for a moment, and then said: "Please make it clear to the real person." ”

Xuanwu Zhenren Zhengse said: "The poor Tao thinks that putting aside history and starting a new chapter cannot be called new; ”

Xiao Yi couldn't help but applaud and said: "Doing nothing does nothing, it seems to be conservative, but in fact it is new." Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years. The disciple was taught. He had heard Nangong Xiaoli say this, but he felt that it was reasonable at this time, so he stole it and used it.

The Taoist disciples praised the Taoist real people, but they used Confucian famous sentences, and they listened to the Xuanwu real people so angry and funny, they could only shake their heads helplessly. (To be continued.) )
