Chapter 262: Five Thousand Words Collect Beauty

"What is 'Enlightenment'? What does it have to do with 'Poor Dao'?" Li Shu looked at Zhao Xuan, with an expression of "You don't say I'm not done with you", obviously I have to understand this today.

She has been very troubled by that "enlightenment" these days.

That's right, just a few days!

Although there is no way to know the time here, Li Shu is sure that Zhao Xuan's "enlightenment" will definitely not be less than three days.

Zhao Xuan looked at Li Shu's slightly embarrassed appearance, although he didn't know how to get it, but he thought it should have something to do with his enlightenment, besides...... He seemed to think of something, smiled slightly, and immediately explained: "'Poor Dao' is the self-title of 'me', 'Enlightenment'...... It's my practice. ”

"Cultivation?" Li Shu was still puzzled.

Zhao Xuan chuckled and explained again: "It's just like your cultivation of literature and martial arts, and you are poor in cultivating the Tao." ”

"What is the 'Dao'?" Li Shu was even more puzzled.

Zhao Xuan shook his head and was silent.

Li Shu looked at him expressionlessly.

Seeing this, Zhao Xuan pretended to sigh and said: "It's not that you don't say it, but you can't say it, you can't say it." ”

"Are you a fool to me?" Li Shu didn't believe it at all.

What can't be said or said in this world?

It's just that I don't want to say it!

Zhao Xuan saw Li Shu's expression, smiled in his heart, and said secretly: Maybe it can really be! After thinking about it, he said: "If Poor Dao is not mistaken, when you and I first met, you made a poem. The poem says: 'Look at the sky all day long and don't raise your head, and the peach blossoms are full of flowers and start to raise your eyes.' Rao Jun has more nets to cover the sky, and he can be closed even if he is closed. This poem has the meaning of breaking through the void and seeing the mind. One of the sentences, "look at the sky all day long and don't raise your head" has the meaning of "pulling weeds all day long, seeking the truth, but having no time to raise your head"; Only then did he break through the truth. I know the meaning of raising my eyes to look at the sky'; the third and fourth sentences 'Rao Jun has more nets covering the sky.' Even if you are in prison, even if you are closed', it seems to say, 'Even if you have a net that covers the sky, I can also grasp the light through the prison', which means 'break through all prisons, get rid of all worldly constraints, and enter the realm of happiness and inaction, liberation and freedom'. In this way, it can be regarded as a deep root of the Tao and a deep Tao nature. Since you and I are destined, I wonder if you would like to follow the path of poverty and cultivate the Tao?"

Li Shu knew that the poem Zhao Xuan said was made when she met Zhao Xuan and Zhao Ling'er when she was embarrassed by Liu Wenhao when she was playing in the capital, but she really just had a flash of inspiration at that time. There is no such thing as "breaking through nothingness", "clear mind", "deep roots of the Dao", "deep Dao nature" and the like as Zhao Xuan said.

She doesn't even know what these four idioms mean!

Suddenly, she came back to her senses and looked at Zhao Xuan suspiciously: "Are you changing the subject?"

The corners of Zhao Xuan's mouth twitched, and he shook his head and said: "The Tao is the Tao, the Tao is not the Constant Dao, the Wendao and the Martial Arts are the Dao and the Dao, and the Dao of the Poor Dao can be explained in two words." If you don't know the Tao, you won't be able to understand it, even if you preach it, if you know the Tao. Even if you don't talk about it, you can know it. ”

What is the Tao is not the Tao, but the Tao is the Tao and the Tao is not the Tao. How do you go around it like this?

Li Shu's first reaction was that Zhao Xuan was fooling her again, just savoring it, especially the first sentence "Tao is the way, not the constant way", it seems that there is a great truth in the mystery, and she couldn't help but bow her head and fall into contemplation for a while.

Seeing this, Zhao Xuan smiled slightly, looked up at the sky, and waited quietly.

If others can pass through his eyes, they will see that above this abyss, there seems to be some kind of power that blocks the qi of all things under the abyss from connecting with the heavenly path that is high above.

Even Li Shu is the same!

A hint of discoloration flashed from Zhao Xuan's eyes, and he lowered his head and looked at Li Shu again.

After a long time, Li Shu raised her head and said, "If you don't say it, how can I know what the 'Dao' is? I don't know what the 'Dao' is, how can I know whether to cultivate the 'Dao'?"

Zhao Xuan smiled lightly and said: "Okay, just let the poor road trouble, first give you five thousand words of morality, a total of nine hundred and eighty-one chapters, the first part of the word, the next part of the word." If you can attain enlightenment, you will naturally cultivate with the poor path, and if you can't attain enlightenment, even if you agree, you will not agree to the poor path. ”

This was said extremely politely, but Li Shu just frowned, and suppressed the evil fire in her heart.

She wants to see what the "Tao" Zhao Xuan said!

I saw Zhao Xuan's big sleeves swing, and a long table appeared out of thin air, with the four treasures of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Zhao Xuan spread out the paper very skillfully, pressed the paperweight, gently grinded, and after a while, holding a brush, splashing ink, one by one the handwriting jumped on the paper.

Li Shu frowned, took a step forward gently, and saw that it was written: "The Tao is the way, not the constant way." The name can be named, not the permanent name. Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth, named, the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always none, and there is always a desire to observe its wonderfulness. These two have the same name and different names, and they are the same mysteries. Mysterious and mysterious, the door of all wonders. ”

"Everyone in the world knows that beauty is beautiful and evil, and everyone knows that what is good is good and what is not good. Therefore, there is no mutual birth, difficulty and ease are mutually compatible, the length is dwarfed, the high and the low are inclined to each other, the sound is harmonious, and the front and back are with each other. It is to do what the saint does not do, and to teach without words. All things do not quit, they are born without being, they are not ashamed, and they live in success. Fu Wei Fuju is not going to go. ”

"If you are not virtuous, you will not fight the people. Inexpensive and rare goods, so that the people will not be robbed. If you don't see what you want, the people's hearts will not be disturbed. It is the rule of a saint, who is humble in his heart and strong in his belly, weak in his will and strong in his bones. It often makes the people ignorant and desireless, and makes the husband dare not do it. If you do nothing, you will not be cured......"

Li Shu couldn't help but be stunned when she looked at it.

I don't know why, she just feels that Zhao Xuan's words are expounding the truth of the world, even more unfathomable than the words of the sages she has learned since childhood. Especially in the first paragraph, she couldn't understand the meaning at all, but she also felt that the meaning was vast and boundless. It was only in the second paragraph that she realized a little, as if to say: "Everyone in the world knows that the reason why beauty is beautiful is because of the existence of ugliness." We all know that the reason why good is good is because there is evil. Therefore, existence and non-existence transform each other, difficulty and ease form each other, long and short appear to each other, high and low complement each other, sound and sound harmonize with each other, and the front and back follow each other - this is eternal. Therefore, the sages treat the world from the viewpoint of non-action, and teach in a way that does not speak: let all things arise naturally without their origins, do something, but do not add their own inclinations, and do not pretend to be accomplished. It is precisely because of the lack of merit that it doesn't matter if you lose ......" for a moment, the word "inaction" came to my heart and could no longer linger.

Zhao Xuan's pen and ink did not stop, and the "Tao Te Ching" was written chapter by chapter, until the thirty-seventh chapter, the last chapter of the "Tao Jing", that there was a slight pause.

"The Tao often does nothing and does nothing. If the prince can keep it, all things will be self-transforming. I want to do it, and I will make it a nameless simplicity. The nameless simplicity will not be desired. If you don't want to be quiet, the world will be self-determined. ”

After writing this chapter, Zhao Xuan glanced at Li Shu, saw the enlightened expression on his face, smiled slightly, and continued to write down the "Book of Virtues":

"If you are not virtuous, you are virtuous, and if you are not virtuous, you are not virtuous, but if you are not virtuous, you are not virtuous. The upper virtue does nothing and does nothing; Shangren did nothing for it. The righteousness is for it. If you don't respond to it, you throw it with your arms crossed. Therefore, the loss of morality followed virtue, the loss of virtue followed by benevolence, the loss of benevolence followed by righteousness, and the loss of righteousness followed by courtesy. The husband is the one who is faithful, and the first of chaos. Those who know before are the flower of the way, and the beginning of foolishness. It is the husband who treats it thickly, not thinly, and in fact, does not live in its glory. Therefore, go to the other and take this. ”

All the way to Chapter 81: "Faith is not beautiful, good words are not believed." The good do not argue, and the debater is not good. Those who know are not knowledgeable, and those who are knowledgeable do not know. The saint does not accumulate, because he thinks that he has more and more with himself. The way of heaven is beneficial but not harmful. The way of the saint is indisputable. Only then did he pause and turn his head to look at Li Shu again.

Seeing that Li Shu slowly closed his eyes after he finished writing the last word, and at the same time, a unique floating aura of "Taoist" emanated from his body, and he couldn't help but shrink his pupils slightly.

This is...... Epiphany?

It's an epiphany!

Zhao Xuan's heart shook slightly, he never expected Li Shu to fall into an epiphany so easily. Although he could see from the poem that Li Shu had already been born and escaped, he didn't expect that Li Shu would have an epiphany so easily.

How would he know that the world is flooded with all kinds of theories about entering the WTO, especially Confucianism, although it talks about moderation, but it does not talk about birth, Li Shu is now like a dry sponge, soaked in the "Tao Te Ching", a Taoist holy scripture, a holy book of birth, and naturally launched a crazy absorption.

This is naturally different from his sponge, which has long been soaked in the vast sea of "Tao Te Ching".

......

A day later, Li Shucai woke up from an epiphany.

Zhao Xuan had been standing in front of her and counting the time, and when he saw her eyes open, he immediately asked, "How is it, what do you know about the 'Dao' now?"

Li Shu didn't seem to have come out of the afterglow of enlightenment, and stayed for a while before saying, "Dao...... Is it the road, the path of cultivation?"

Zhao Xuan couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, and said, "It seems that you are still bound by the inherent viewpoint. After all, if you are entering the Tao for the first time, you can't force the poor Tao. Poor Dao now asks you, would you like to learn the Tao with me?"

"Do you want to apprentice?" asked Li Shu.

Zhao Xuan smiled: "Of course!" If he didn't have to apprentice, what would he do with so much effort?

Li Shu was instantly silent when she heard this, as if she was hesitating about something.

Zhao Xuan didn't urge, put his hands behind his back, and looked at each other quietly.

After a long time, Li Shu suddenly raised her head and said, "Okay!" As soon as the word came out, Zhao Xuan's eyes instantly froze, staring at the two of them.

Seeing that his Dharma Eye had quietly opened at some point, under the Dharma Eye, the gray line of cause and effect connecting the two people trembled violently and began to dissipate rapidly.

It's just that it dissipates quickly, and it stops quickly, only dissipating to a third of the way, and the causal line stops instantly, but Zhao Xuan still laughs: "Okay, good! Poor Dao really didn't guess wrong!" seemed to have been expected.

Speaking of which, with his character of not seeing rabbits and not scattering eagles, if he has no purpose, how can he bother to lead Li Shu into the Tao and take her as an apprentice......?
