Chapter 130: Morality

Some people say that this is because of the merits of King Aheima, but the disciples know that King Khan only likes to hunt, drink, and play with women. Some people say that the good name of the sect master is too great, and he wants to seize the throne of the Khan. But the sect master gave up most of the power in the sect, returned to the Ming Dynasty, and almost didn't care about the things in the sect, and the rumors were self-defeating. Half a year later, the Ming Dynasty came to the court and wanted to ask the master to pray for the first emperor. The disciples don't know if the sect master will pray for blessings, but the Mixed Yuan Dadeshi said that he can take the opportunity to pass the Five Virtues Sect back to Daming, so that all the people of Daming can also enjoy a happy life. The disciple was tempted, because the disciple was a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, so he took the initiative to return to the Ming Dynasty with the senior brother and came to the capital. ”

"But everything in the capital of the Ming Dynasty made the disciples extremely uncomfortable, prosperous and depraved, exquisite and dirty, polite and cold, profound and stubborn. Since the senior brother met Banzai, he has been talking about Taoism, nature, science and history every day, but because he first went rampant with demons and monks, every time the officials of the DPRK and China accused him of demons, we were deeply burdened. The senior brother wants to say long live with the law of governing the country and the people, but some officials of the DPRK and China say that they are not ashamed of their words, and they are always responsible for the truth. The senior brother wanted to inform the situation of the countries in the world, and some officials in the DPRK and China said that the barbarian small state was not worth mentioning. In the end, the elder brother said that the evolution of human civilization was made, and the officials of the DPRK and China said that the gods and ghosts are ghosts, and the gentleman should respect the ghosts and gods and stay away......"

Feng Youshi's knowledge is not high, and his speech is a little scattered. But from Feng Youshi's words, Yue Buqun understood that Bai Xiaoyun had always wanted to follow Yue Buqun's example and preach from top to bottom to change the status quo of the Ming Dynasty. But the resistance is too great, not because Bai Xiaoyun doesn't do anything, but because he can't do it. Even the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple also had the support of many officials from the DPRK and China, who came to restrain Bai Xiaoyun. The matter of collecting money is specifically to discredit the Five Virtues. The clothes and ornaments on the five virtues and the Taoists are all given by Emperor Hongzhi, because they have to enter the palace to face the saint, they have to wear them, and they are usually simple and spend the day. It's just that Feng Youshi is only shallow after all, and he doesn't know how the Five Virtues Sect should develop and act in the future.

Yue Buqun stroked Bai Xiaoyun's head and said, "It's because the teacher is to blame you, the teacher has always emphasized that you should talk less and do more." Seeing that you **** entered the palace and talked about the scriptures with Long Live Dao, I thought that you had also become those rhetorical and self-depraved rotten Confucians. I, a member of the Five Virtues Sect, know it first, and although I can teach others how to do it, I have to do it myself. Bring all the people in the world to your own actions, and prove your own right with your own actions. ”

Bai Xiaoyun sobbed and responded: "The disciple understands, the disciple has been frightened for the past half a year, for fear that if he is not careful, the Five Virtues Sect will be isolated from the Ming Dynasty. Today, I am not very happy to see the master coming, and I finally have someone to rely on. I don't know if the master wants to face the saint here, and pass on my five virtues teachings?"

Yue Buqun shook his head and said: "You are wrong, after more than 2,000 years of development and evolution, Confucianism has basically reached the point of self-perfection and self-justification. Even if they make mistakes, they can always cite scriptures to explain their mistakes and deal with various problems in life and government affairs. Coupled with the uniqueness and authority of Confucianism, the court he occupies is the core of its Taoist system, and it is absolutely impossible to allow the intervention of other sects, including the two Taoist schools that are widely spread and widespread in the Central Plains. Even though the Five Virtues are all-encompassing, we pay more attention to practice, and pay attention to the quality of life, moral quality, and intellectual ability of the people. But in their eyes, we are just a branch of Taoism, or a new ordinary religion, or a miscellaneous reproduction of a hundred schools. ”

Yue Buqun helped Bai Xiaoyun up, and said: "Emperor Hongzhi is young and knowledgeable, and he is deeply influenced by Confucianism, so he will not easily believe in the teachings of my Five Virtues Sect and the ultimate goal. Even if we are loyal to the Chinese civilization, we will not be loyal to the whole of mankind. If Emperor Hongzhi was forcibly persuaded to believe, he would either be disgusted by Emperor Hongzhi or be counterattacked by Confucianism. Just as Confucius killed Shao Zhengmao in the past, Dong Zhongshu deposed a hundred schools of thought, and respected Confucianism alone, it was extremely shameless to use administrative means to solve academic problems. ”

"The Five Virtues Sect was established for a short time, and although it has a share of the foundation in the Turpan Khanate, it is congenitally deficient and very easy to die, and now is not the time to develop outward. If I had been in the Western Regions at that time, I would not have let you come to Daming so early. The ancients have been gathering for ten years, and they have learned lessons for ten years. My Five Virtues Sect is now just a child, and it will take a longer time to grow. Ten years from now, you will be only twenty or thirty years old, and you will be able to learn. He could slowly preach to Tibet, Mongolia, and Gansu. Ten years later, you will only be in your thirties or forties, and your years of life experience, missionary experience, and rich knowledge will surely enable the Five Virtues Sect to spread throughout the Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop. After another ten years, the Ming Dynasty will be able to spread the Five Virtues Religion throughout the earth. If this continues, within 50 years, the Five Virtues Sect will take root all over the world, turning the whole world into a world of great harmony and a world of heaven. It also guides human beings to evolve into the future, to space, and to the universe. ”

Bai Xiaoyun was still unwilling, and said: "Master, we will return to the Turpan Khanate, so that the disciple's Hebei missionary right that he has sought in the past half a year will be in vain?"

Yue Buqun said with a smile: "It's not in vain, the teacher doesn't want you all to evacuate, but you can leave a group of people to preach in Hebei." But not from the top down, but from the bottom down, following the example of the White Lotus. I think that there are hundreds of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty, accounting for more than ninety percent of the number of people, but most of them are living in poverty and need the help of my Five Virtues. In addition, the three types of people, such as industrialists, merchants, and soldiers, do not have a high status in the Ming Dynasty, and urgently need the support of our Five Virtues Sect to increase their right to speak in society. Therefore, to proselytize, we must first preach among the people, train believers, teach clergy, and help the government to stabilize the local government, so as to gain the support of the local government. But the most important thing to pay attention to is that the obstruction of the patriarchs of all places and surnames must find a way to break the absolute authority of the patriarch over the people. Recruit local officials and officials into the church, change their thinking of doing evil, and then slowly develop to the officials, and guide them on how to govern the locality. It may take longer, but it will be relatively smooth. ”

"You can first preach from Jizhen, Xuanda and other places to improve the lives of the local people, strengthen the armament of the people in the frontier, and prevent the invasion of Northern Mongolia in the future. After ten years, when the foundation was solid, he went to the northeast to preach and included the northeastern Liao town in the diocese. Ten years later, he cooperated with the head church to preach the entire Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop. Bai Xiaoyun and other Taoist priests said in unison: "I respect the master of the sect and the edict of the master." ”

Bai Xiaoyun asked, "I don't know who the master wants to keep to preach?"

Yue Buqun said: "Missionary from the bottom up is naturally a priest who can integrate into the people. Let's take Feng Youshi, who was born in a poor family, as the main one, and appoint Feng Youshi as the great monk of the Ji Mission District. In the future, the priests who will be sent from the Archdiocese to Daming will also be priests born from poor families. ”

Bai Xiaoyun and other Taoist priests said in unison: "I respectfully respect the order of the sect master. Yue Buqun gave a lot of instructions, and asked Bai Xiaoyun to ask Emperor Hongzhi to pardon a large number of people who had been convicted of the five virtues when he resigned. (To be continued.) )
