Chapter 3: The Peerless Grand Master (2/2 for the head of the book friend "Fallen Heaven, Lucifer")
"The emperor's methods, turning his face ruthlessly, Zhu Yuanzhang's attack on Mingjiao is reasonable, it is not surprising. But on the bright side, he and Wudang are not related, why should he reward Wudang?"
"After Yitian, Zhu Yuanzhang ascended to the throne of God, and the greatest hero, Mingjiao, fell apart and was suppressed to the point of direct destruction. The six major factions that were once prominent, except for Wudang and Shaolin, also collapsed. The only ones that can remain are Shaolin and Wudang. ”
"Shaolin has been inherited for hundreds of years and has not changed with the times, so it is not difficult to understand that it has survived. But a Wudang faction that has just been established, after Zhang Sanfeng's death, he can still enjoy the reputation of martial arts and worship endlessly, and even the royal family recognizes the status of the Wudang faction. Junbao, have you ever wondered why this is?" asked Zhao Hao.
"Master, how did he do it?" Zhang Junbao wondered.
Naturally, Zhang Sanfeng is the only one who can cause this situation.
His disciples and grandchildren are more than successful, but there is a big gap in progress.
Today, the reason why Wudang can compete with Shaolin is because of the existence of Zhang Sanfeng.
After Zhang Sanfeng, the Wudang Seven Heroes seem to be famous all over the world, but compared with the three crossings and four emptiness of Shaolin Temple, the gap is not ordinarily large.
But after Zhang Sanfeng went, the Wudang faction did not fall behind.
Although it did not surpass Shaolin to become the first major faction, it was also recognized by the people of the world as the only martial arts sect that could compete with Shaolin Temple.
Shaolin in the north, Wudang in the south.
In the Ming Dynasty, the development of Shaolin Temple was stagnant, while the Wudang faction rose slowly, and finally kept pace with Shaolin.
It has to be said that this is a miracle.
In the martial arts. There are many sects that have risen like comets, and quite a few forces have been extremely strong for a while, trampling the Shaolin Temple under their feet.
But the only thing that can be with the long river of time is the Shaolin Temple.
Until the emergence of the Wu-Tang Clan.
"I don't know exactly how Zhang Sanfeng did it. But it is obvious that the friendship between him and Zhu Yuanzhang. Far more than outsiders can imagine. It's not difficult to understand, Junbao, if you see the Han people being ruled by foreign races, and the Tartar court is unscrupulous in the Central Plains, you will also rise up to resist, right?" Zhao Hao said.
Zhang Junbao nodded and said, "That's nature." ”
"You are so, and so is Zhang Sanfeng. He experienced the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty and the rule of the Yuan Dynasty. Over the years, what has the Central Plains been ruined. He saw it all. With his reputation, if he supported the Yuan Dynasty, he would have been named a national teacher a long time ago, where would there be a situation where he is now sitting on Wudang Mountain, and he has even been repeatedly targeted by the imperial court. Zhao Hao said.
"But he never seems to have openly opposed the rule of the Yuan Dynasty?" said Zhang Junbao.
"After all, he is not a person, the top and bottom of the Wudang Sect exist because of him, and he can't just think about himself after all. It's different from the rebels like Mingjiao. The six major factions all play the role of protectors in their respective stations. In recent years, the Tatars have ravaged the Central Plains. But they have never really calmed the world, because these people have never really given in to their hearts. After a hundred years of martial arts in the Central Plains, martial arts have become more sophisticated, because the blood of the warriors has never dried up, and the persistence of the warriors is still there. But after all, they are only a martial arts sect, and they can protect a hundred people. But it can't protect thousands of people. The Tartar court, and they formed a delicate balance. For the people they support, life is naturally better than that of ordinary people. But at the same time, they must not move, or they and the people they support will be attacked by the Tartar court. Zhao Hao said.
"This is the limitation of ordinary martial arts sects. However, they also lived up to the name of righteousness after all, even if they could not change the world, at least they did what they could. Don't take evil as small, don't do good as small. Zhang Junbao said.
Zhao Hao nodded and said, "The six major factions can be respected by ordinary people, so naturally they have something to be respected. There are two ways of righteousness and demons, and there are different opinions, but they will not be groundless. Even though people in the righteous path hide filth and dirt, on the surface they will only do chivalrous and righteous things. And the Demon Sect, even if there are also people who are heroic and dry, but when are there fewer people who wantonly slaughter and exterminate human nature? There is no love for no reason, and naturally there will be no hatred for no reason. If one person doesn't have black spots, others can't do it even if they want to be black. ”
"Master, I understand. Zhang Junbao said.
Zhao Hao patted Zhang Junbao's head and continued: "As I said before, Zhang Sanfeng is also anti-Yuan, even if he can't come forward himself, it's not strange to find a person to support." ”
"Master, are you suspicious?" said Zhang Junbao.
There is no other reason to explain all this, people like Zhu Yuanzhang will never be good to others for no reason. I believe in Zhang Sanfeng's anti-Yuan sincerity, but the Wudang faction is bound to not be at the forefront. There must be a connection between Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Sanfeng, but when did this connection start and to what extent, I can't be sure. Zhao Hao said.
"Master, I have a chilling feeling, could it be that my future is such a scheming person?" Zhang Junbao shuddered.
"What's wrong with being scheming? Junbao, can Zhang Sanfeng indiscriminately kill innocents in his life? Can he deceive teachers and destroy ancestors? Can he bully and oppress the people?" Zhao Hao asked.
Zhang Junbao shook his head.
"Since none of these are any, on the contrary, he is still an example of the righteous path of martial arts, and he has even secretly made great efforts to expel the Tartars and restore the Central Plains, even if such a person is scheming, what does it matter?" Zhao Hao asked rhetorically.
Zhang Junbao was speechless.
Zhao Hao patted Zhang Junbao on the shoulder and said seriously: "Good has great good and small good, and evil has big evil and small evil. Zhang Sanfeng is a world-recognized great master, and you already know his achievements. But his position as a great grandmaster was never obtained by virtue of martial arts alone. Junbao, there's still a lot to learn. I don't want you to grow up to be unprincipled, but I don't want you to be pedantic either. Guo Jing is Guo Jing, Zhang Wuji is Zhang Wuji, they are all amazing. But Zhang Sanfeng's ultimate achievement is by no means comparable to these two. I don't know if you'll be able to surpass him, but at least until you get past him, you have to respect him enough. He also deserves your respect. ”
"Master, I was wrong. Zhang Junbao said.
"Before learning martial arts, learn to be a human being. Although there are many masters in this world, there are very few who can become grandmasters. And there is only one person in the world who has achieved the great master. Junbao, I'm working hard, and you have to work hard. Zhao Hao said.
