Chapter 36: The Three Talents and the Analects

"Qiao Song, Qiao Song!" Han Tongwen shouted as he ran.

There was a cough choking on smoke from inside the bamboo house, and a small head poked out of the door of the bamboo house, and its face was black

"It's okay if you're okay, Qiao Song!" Han Tongwen was relieved when he saw Qiao Song

"What can I do?" Qiao Song didn't care

"Why is the house on fire?"

"It's on fire, where is it on fire?" asked Qiao Song, puzzled

"It's not such a big black smoke" Han Tongwen instantly understood, and slapped the back of Qiao Song's head, "You stinky boy, what are you doing?"

"Wronged, master" Qiao Song cried with a sad face, "An old man sent a lot of vegetables over, as well as meat, so I just thought about making a meal for you!"

Such words came out of the mouth of a four-year-old child, Han Tongwen felt warm, "Okay, okay, don't cry, it's the master who blames you, the master apologizes to you, okay?"

Qiao Song turned his head and said that he did not accept Han Tongwen's apology

"It's okay to forgive the master!"

"Forgive me, forgive me" Han Tongwen had no choice but to press Qiao Song's head and nodded, which can be regarded as forgiving Han Tongwen

"Let's go, the master will teach you to cook!"

Han Tongwen opened the window, scattered smoke, and washed Qiao Song's face, and the beautiful scenery was ruined by the billowing smoke, I heard that the experts said that PM2.5 appeared in this kind of stir-frying? Wang Laoshi sent a lot of things, pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and some vegetables and meat. Han Tongwen extinguished the fire and took out a black and soft thing from the fire.

"Qiao Song, what kind of thing is this?"

Qiao Song took a closer look and scratched his head, "What, it seems to be a piece of meat."

Han Tongwen laughed: "You are going to make bacon for the master!"

"You're laughing at me, I'm ignoring you," Qiao Song was very angry

"Okay, okay, don't laugh," Han Tongwen held back a smile, "Apprentice, you have to cut him open first!"

Han Tongwen washed the meat with water, cut off a small piece of meat that could not be used, turned over the vegetables and saw that there was celery, so he said, "Today, the master taught you to make celery fried meat!"

Under Qiao Song's envious gaze, Han Tongwen skillfully cut the meat into diced meat. After such a farce, it was not early to eat dinner, and after a good dinner, Han Tongwen took Qiao Song to Wuyuan's Boyang Pond to wash early, and when he walked back, it was already in the middle of the moon, and Qiao Song on his back was already asleep. Han Tongwen feels very much

Satisfied, he was very grateful to Qiao Song, and let him experience these trivial joys of life, he and Qiao Song This is a new home.

Qiao Song didn't sleep well, he always kicked the quilt, the weather was not warm, Han Tongwen woke up several times and covered him with the quilt before falling asleep. Han Tongwen and Qiao Song's morning class were the same, first meditating and practicing internal strength, beside him was the roar of a waterfall, and in front of him was a churning sea of clouds! The two of them sat cross-legged on the top of the mountain, breathing in the purest breath of heaven and earth.

The two of them remained motionless in a meditative posture for an hour, and when the sun came out of the sea of clouds, the first rays of sunlight shone on the two of them, and the two of them got up, took a deep breath and woke up from their meditation!

"Comfortable!" Han Tongwen said

"Comfortable!" Qiao Song also said as he learned from Han Tongwen

The two looked at each other and laughed.

"Qiao Song, I have some time to contact those basic swordsmanship, I will teach you a set of swordsmanship for the teacher, the Thirteen Swords of the Divine Gate!"

Han Tongwen took a piece of wooden branch as a sword, this swordsmanship was created by Zhang Sanfeng, the martial arts created by Zhang Sanfeng are extremely exquisite, although the thirteen swords of Shenmen are not his mastery but they are also extraordinary. There are a total of thirteen moves in this sword technique, and the no moves are different, but the stabbing places are all the Shenmen points on the enemy's wrists, and the hands of the person who is in the sword can no longer exert any strength.

After Han Tongwen's demonstration, another move was dismantled and taught, Qiao Song's kendo talent is really good, although it is not the top but it is rare, the two of them are on the top of the peak of Wulao Peak, meditating and practicing swords, and the morning has passed.

The afternoon class of the Academy of Literature was not too difficult, Song Ren explained the Analects, and he was able to be a gentleman in Bailu Cave, and he was naturally a high fighter, and a book of Analects was full of fun. The Analects of Han Tong have been memorized for a long time, but there are still many things that are not well understood.

"Students, what Sancai is, does anyone know!" Song Ren asked

"Heaven and earth people!" Don't talk about these students, almost all of them know such a simple question.

"Then why put heaven, earth and man together?" Song Ren asked with a smile

This time I asked everyone, even Han Tongwen didn't know, just like a pig, why is it called a pig and no one knows what the reason is.

"It seems that everyone doesn't know, so let's change the question" Song Ren didn't mind that they didn't know, after all, if they all knew, it would be useless for Mr. Yao "How are the heavens and the earth formed!"

"In the Three or Five Calendars, it is said that Pangu opened the heavens and split the earth!" said a student below

"Okay, so what's written in the book?" Song Ren encouraged

"Heaven and earth are chaotic like chickens, Pangu was born in it, eighteen thousand years old, heaven and earth are opened, yang is clear for the sky, yin is turbid for the earth, Pangu is in it, nine changes in a day, God is in the sky, holy in the earth, the sky is one zhang high, the earth is one zhang thick, and Pangu is one zhang long. 18,000 years old, the number of days is extremely high, the number of places is extremely deep, and Pangu is extremely long. ”

Song Ren was very satisfied, after all, the Three or Five Almanacs is a very rare book, "There are many reasons why heaven, earth and man are put together, Pangu holds the sky with his palms, steps on the earth, and heaven, earth and man are connected as one, this is one of them." ”

"What do you think when it comes to the sky!"

"Broad!"

"You can fly!" a burst of voices drew laughter from the classroom

"Very well, the sky is wide, because it can hold all our fantasies about it, and the sky can fly, because our minds can be as wild as our imagination!

"Down-to-earth"

"We can stand firm!"

"Yes, we can stand on the ground very steadily, we can walk, we can even run, because we are down-to-earth. The reason why heaven, earth and people are called three talents together is because people need to have dreams and then practice them in a down-to-earth manner!"

"Good!" burst of applause from below.

"Everyone must be thinking that I am a teacher of the Analects, why do you say that the three talents of heaven, earth and man are irrelevant things, but in fact they are not. What is the Analects. Song Ren asked again

"The Analects are a book written by the disciple of the Master based on his words and deeds!" someone replied

"Integrate into your body the thoughts that are as inclusive as the sky and the behavior that is as generous and calm as the earth, and these are the Analects! The Analects are not the words of the unattainable saints, but the most simple truths, like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west. The essence of the Analects is to tell us how to achieve spiritual satisfaction in life.

Poor and happy, rich and good. The principles recorded in the Analects are so vast that everyone can find their own place in them. It doesn't take much to learn the Analects, only one or two needs to be learned to be useful for a lifetime, so after the death of the Master, Confucianism was divided into eight schools, because what they learned from the Analects was not the same.

There is Zhang Zhiru, the son of "the soldier sees the danger and death, sees the righteousness, sacrifices and respects, and mourns". There is a Confucianism who "ignores the law before the king and does not know its system". There are the Confucians of the Yan family who are "happy and happy", the Confucians of the Meng family who practice "benevolent government" and "the royal road", the Confucianism of the Qidiao family who "has good and evil in human nature", and the Confucianism of the Zhongliang family who "has the learning of Zeng Shen and Zixia".

There is "heaven and man are divided", "the mandate of heaven is used" Sun's Confucianism, and there is Lezheng's Confucianism. That's the first lesson of the day, how to learn the Analects!"

Song Ren is indeed a very good gentleman, step by step, from the three talents to the Analects, Han Tongwen benefited a lot, especially Song Ren's view of the three talents, is not a fortune telling, but a real knowledge based on people, Han Tongwen feels that he is really right to learn scriptures. As for Wu Qinghe, as the dean of the Hongru Academy, what he needs to do is to only give one lesson to each class once a week, because Wu Qinghe is old after all, and his energy is limited.
