Chapter Seventy-Six: Self-Contained
Confucianism, one of the sacred places of Confucianism in Shilin, and the reason why most Confucian territories in the world like to establish Confucianism is also derived from Confucianism in Shilin.
The Confucianism in the Shilin is different from the Confucianism recreated by the outside world, which is usually based on the qi operation of one side of the force, with the power of the humane order, condensing the strange plants between the virtual and the real, and at the same time, because it will record its cultural characteristics, so the vegetation of the Confucianism in the outside world will manifest into different plants according to the changes in morality and integrity.
The Confucianism in the Shilin, relying on the entire Confucianism and Taoism, Jiuzhou is the subordinate heaven and earth of Kyushu, as long as there is a Confucian and Taoist student, a corresponding reading seed will be born here, and with the growth of its knowledge, integrity, thought, and morality, the seed will also grow.
Of course, most of the scholars who study Confucianism usually only learn some fur and have a slight understanding, so the most in Confucianism are those seedlings that have just sprouted, because their hearts are uncertain, the root system is difficult to grow, and once the corresponding person in the present world dies, the seedlings will naturally wither. Only those who have strengthened their hearts, can understand from Confucianism, and understand the principles of being a person and doing things, can they take root in Confucianism, even if they pass away in the present life, they will be blessed by Confucianism, and will be preserved here, and will continue to be used to cultivate the next generation for millions of years, becoming one of the foundations of Confucian inheritance.
Li Chuping stood in the Confucian forest, looking at the trees in front of him with some confusion, according to his grandfather's words, each tree here contains a Confucian bachelor's degree, if you want to forcibly absorb it, it is easy to resonate with the trees connected to the root system, a large number of knowledge and wisdom of the same root system will constitute a terrible torrent of ideas, enough to destroy the sea of knowledge of any bachelor, if you want to obtain the knowledge of a simple person, you need to water a certain tree with a literary atmosphere, so that its branches and leaves are luxuriant, and the leaves will fall naturally.
But there is another problem with this, after all the trees have grown to a certain extent, there will be no new changes, and the appearance is almost the same, and it is difficult to tell how much knowledge has accumulated inside from the appearance alone.
According to Li Chuping's own speculation, his tone makes up to three trees lose their leaves, so how to choose has become the top priority.
"Huh, Brother Li, why are you here?" The sudden sound made Liu Yuanzong a little surprised, and when he turned his head, he saw Li Haocheng again, and he was even more surprised: "Brother Liu, why are you here?"
"I just followed the method you said, and I walked and walked here! I still wondered, Brother Li, why are you here? Isn't this the holy place of Confucian painting?" Li Haocheng looked at Li Chuping with an innocent face.
With his brows furrowed slightly, Li Chuping thought for a moment and said, "This is Confucianism, and it is generally only by some people who practice Confucian orthodoxy that they can come. ”
"Actually, it's not all!" Another voice came from the Confucian forest, and a young man in a Confucian robe walked out, he was holding a jade ruler, and the whole person was surrounded by a faint literary aura, and his momentum looked much more powerful than Li Chuping, a bit of the feeling before Cai Ying's breakthrough.
Li Haocheng arched his hand and asked, "Dare to ask Your Excellency?"
"Kong Hongtai!" The young man also returned the salute, but compared to Li Haocheng's actions, this young man's gestures were all in line with a certain legal principle, faintly in line with the humane order, producing wonderful power, and the original turbulent literary atmosphere gradually calmed down.
'Li?' Li Haocheng's eyes lit up slightly, this young man's movements in the immortal path are a dao technique, and it is also a dao technique specially used to restore himself, the jade talisman is clear and flickering, constantly analyzing, wanting to turn it into his own. In contrast, Li Chuping's focus was on the surname of this young man, and he was a little excited: "Dare to ask Master Kong, where is your origin?"
"Qufu Kong Clan!" Kong Hongtai responded with a smile, Li Chuping was a little restrained as if he had seen his predecessors, Li Haocheng glanced at him, turned his head to look at Kong Hongtai and asked: "Dare to ask Master Kong, do you know why I came here? Logically speaking, I should not go to the Confucian Painting Pavilion where I practice painting?"
Kong Hongtai looked at Li Haocheng and was slightly stunned, but he appreciated his ordinary heart even more, and nodded: "Confucianism is the foundation of Confucian inheritance, although most of them accept Confucian orthodox bachelors, but if someone has first-class knowledge, the root system of the trees corresponding to him in Confucianism is strong enough, and he can also be brought in." As a painting monk, your Excellency was able to enter the Confucian Forest, and it was obvious that you were first-class in learning. ”
"Is it reasonable?" Li Chuping was slightly stunned when he heard Kong Hongtai's words, and then reacted and muttered in a low voice.
"Rational view?" Kong Hongtai's jade ruler in his hand shook slightly, and he was a little surprised: "I wonder if Master Li can explain it in detail?"
"Of course you can!" Li Chuping said, that is, Li Haocheng said the physical fur before entering Shilin, Kong Hongtai's face changed slightly, the jade ruler in his hand swayed slightly, the Taoist law changed, and countless literary qi surged, deducing with Li Chuping's oral concept of reason, and finally triggered the change of Confucianism, and the wisps of white light fell, faintly condensing it into seeds, but in the end, it seemed to be disturbed by some force and failed to take shape.
Seeing this, Kong Hongtai's face was a little emotional, he turned his head to look at Li Haocheng, and said with regret: "Master Liu is almost self-reliant, if he had studied the orthodox method of Confucianism at the beginning, maybe I would have another half-saint in Confucianism and Taoism in the future." ”
After speaking, Kong Hongtai seemed to see the difference between Li Chuping, and explained: "Master Li should not underestimate this self-righteous person, you must know that Confucianism has never been a one-person statement, and the reason why Confucianism and Taoism can flourish is because countless ancestors have been constantly opened, deduced, and perfected. A person like Brother Liu, who has established his own side, has always been the most popular existence of Confucianism, and the number of qi in the dark is favored, and his future achievement of Confucianism can be said to be a certainty, if he practices Confucianism and Taoism orthodoxy, it is only a matter of time before he becomes a semi-saint in the future. ”
Li Haocheng on the side heard this, and nodded secretly, this Confucian student, both in knowledge and temperament, is very good, and did not choose to elevate orthodoxy and suppress the rest of the branches because his ancestor was the holy master.
After all, although Confucianism was the words of the Holy Prophet in the early years, the people who studied it later understood different emphases, and the insights born were naturally different, and these perceptions would become a new branch after being perfected and completed, thus constantly enriching Confucianism.
It can be said that the current Confucianism is only a huge knowledge network with the holy master as the core orthodoxy, and has gone through the understanding, interpretation, and evolution of the Confucianism from generation to generation.
In the final analysis, whether a doctrine can develop and grow and continue to future generations requires not only the doctrine itself to have something to say, but also the successors of the doctrine, even if Confucianism and Taoism are now extremely prosperous, there are also more disciples and grandchildren to continue, repeatedly, and study the meaning of it, so that Confucianism and Taoism can continue to spread and extend to all aspects of humanity.
The reason why some trees in the Confucian forest resonate with other trees when touched? The reason is that the Confucianism of those trees originates from the same root system, and their perceptions are relatively similar, and the root systems are very closely intertwined, and it is difficult to distinguish each other. This is also a major problem derived from Confucianism and Taoism, once a branch is derived to the extreme, the truth will be repeatedly studied, and the inherent thinking, as well as the limitations of thinking, will make people's ideas be limited to a range, difficult to break free, so that the branch evolution is more and more rigid, so that it declines.
And that's why Rulin is so fond of people who set up their own side.
Because they put forward a new derivative direction, a new breakthrough, in the Confucianism, the person who founded a group is not just an ancestral tree, his root system will not only spread with the spread of his thoughts, grow new trees, but also stimulate the changes of the rest of the ancestral trees, so that their root system derivation breaks the deadlock, so that Confucianism enters a new stage of development, and makes the power of Confucianism further stronger.
Therefore, Kong Hongtai and the original Li family Confucianism will be so emotional, but it is a pity that Li Haocheng is not practicing the orthodox way of Confucianism, otherwise, he who specializes in Confucianism, will definitely be able to perfect this branch in his lifetime, and the feedback of Confucianism and Taoism brought by this branch is enough to let him step into the holy path, and the semi-holy position is almost a stable thing.
