Chapter 1433

As soon as the door of the room opened, Lan Daoxing saw Xu Jin standing outside the door with bloodshot eyes, probably riding a long way all night.

When Xu Jin saw Lan Daoxing coming out of the house, he was stunned for a moment, but the latter bowed his head and said, "The Emperor Wuliang Tianzun. It's really a place where we meet in the world. Mr. Xu, we're meeting again."

Xu Jin nodded and said with a slight joking saying, "As the saying goes, you can get a boat trip together after a hundred years, and you can get a pillow together after a thousand years. Master Lan, it seems that we are indeed destined to be destined to be destined to be destined to be destined to be destined to be destined to be destined to be destined to be at least a hundred years."

The little Taoist Qingfeng couldn't help but remember what Wang Shouren said just now. In the future, his master and the Prince Beijing would have some entanglement, so he couldn't help but retort: ​​"Young Master Xu, that's just the Buddhist saying. We Taoists do not believe in cause and effect, but only talk about fortune."

Xu Jin pretended to be surprised and said, "But why did Master Lan say that Buddhism and Taoism were not separated? Did he change the course so quickly, or did your disciple not learn well? If he didn't learn well, he should be beaten."

Qingfeng was speechless, Lan Daoxing laughed and said, "Young Master Xu is not irresistible. You are asking for trouble. Mr. Xu, please come in, Brother Yangming is still waiting for you."

Xu Jin noticed that Lan Daoxing called Wang Shouren Brother Yangming. It seemed that the two had a close relationship. He nodded and walked into the house. Lan Daoxing outside the door took the door with him.

Although he was mentally prepared, when Xu Jin saw Wang Shouren, who was lying on the chair and was so thin that he was skinny that he was left with bones, he was also surprised and blurted out: "Why should the prince stop?"

Wang Shouren coughed lightly and said disapprovingly: "I am in my twilight years and I am about to die. Why should Prince Beijing make a fuss? Haha, I am unable to move, so I can't stand up and salute the prince."

Xu Jin hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, don't be polite, you should call me Xu Ziqian like you used to."

Wang Shouren smiled: "Sit down, Ziqian can come to see me. I am very happy. I heard from fellow Taoist Lan that you met on the Han River. I guess you were on the boat from Hanzhong to the east."

"That's right!" Xu Jin said.

Wang Shouren actually nodded: "It's good to avoid getting involved in the storm in Beijing."

Xu Jin's face was slightly embarrassed. It seemed that although Lao Wang was seriously ill and dying, he was still very clear-headed. He suddenly realized his intentions. What was rare is that he did not seem to oppose himself doing this. If it were Mao Cheng and Shi Yu, he would probably be able to scold his ancestral tomb.

"I really don't want to get involved in the storm in Beijing, so I used the excuse to go back to my hometown to visit relatives." Xu Jin said frankly.

Wang Shouren said: "It's enough not to violate one's true intention."

"What is the original heart?" Xu Jin asked back.

"The original heart is the law of heaven, and is the conscience."

"What is the law of nature? What is conscience?"

"The stars change, the cold and heat change festivals, flowers bloom and fall, birth, old age, sickness and death are all laws of nature, and knowing good and evil is conscience."

Xu Jin raised his eyebrows: "What is good and what is evil?"

Wang Yangming smiled and said, "It is only in your heart. It is natural that it is good, and it is evil when it is angry."

Xu Jin shook his head and said, "It's too empty. Are there any specific standards?"

Wang Yangming pondered for a moment and said, "Some people are good to benefit themselves; benefiting others are good to benefit themselves is great good; harming others are bad to benefit themselves is evil; harming others are bad to benefit themselves is great evil."

Xu Jin nodded and said, "It sounds like some reason, but what about selfishness but not harming others? Is it good or evil?"

Wang Yangming smiled and said, "It is natural that good."

Xu Jin laughed and said, "I'm back again. How should this be defined?"

"No need to define, human hearts are the laws of nature, and there is no distinction between good and evil, but they can distinguish between good and evil." Wang Yangming said.

Xu Jin heard this and said, "Since there is no distinction between good and evil in a person's heart, and he is naturally able to distinguish between good and evil, why do some do good and others do evil?"

Wang Yangming smiled and said, "There is no good or evil in a person's heart, but the thoughts have good or evil. If you see a child falling into a well, you will feel compassion. If you see a neighbor with a virgin, you will be coveted. In a specific external situation, the heart of a person who is not divided by good or evil will have a thought that is divided by good or evil. If you have good or evil, you will do good or evil. If you have good or evil thoughts, you will do evil. This is the so-called body without good or evil, and there are good or evil movements."

Wang Yangming glanced at Xu Jin who was thinking and continued: "Knowing good and evil is conscience, and doing good and eliminating evil is to investigate things. I have taught in my life, only the three words "to achieve conscience". Anyone who does not violate the original heart or conscience is to develop malice that violates the original heart and conscience, should be erased as soon as possible to avoid doing evil things."

Xu Jin was silent. He partially agreed with Wang Shouren's point of view that there is indeed no distinction between good and evil in human nature, but it is not inherently able to distinguish between good and evil. People's distinction between good and evil will only use their own values ​​as the criterion for measuring, and human values ​​are not innate, but formed by the acquired influence.

For example, the monarch, minister, minister, father, son, son, and other values ​​are the values ​​of feudal society, while Xu Jin, a time traveler, is equal to everyone and not bound by feudal ethics and doctrines. Therefore, those ministers who protect the etiquette thought that Jiajing had done something wrong, Xu Jin did not think it was a big deal. Just because of the placement of a god lord, it would cause you to the death. Why bother?

Of course, if personal values ​​are the original heart and the conscience, Xu Jin's intentional avoidance and resignation to Beijing this time is indeed not against his original heart.

If you feel at ease, you will naturally be able to make sense!

So in this regard, Xu Jin agrees with Lao Wang’s point of view!

Seeing that Xu Jin was silent, Wang Shouren seemed to have some insight, and couldn't help but show a satisfied expression of Ru's ability to teach. He pulled the rope bell lightly, and a disciple pushed the door and walked to Wang Shouren and bent down respectfully to wait for the orders.

Wang Shouren had just a look, and the disciple understood it. He walked to the corner of the wall and opened a box, took out a copy of Yangming's Xinxue from it and gave it to Xu Jin.

Wang Shouren's breathing was a little anxious at this time, and he said, "I have experienced my whole life in this book, so I will send it to Ziqian as a souvenir. If you have something to gain, it will not be in vain for you to come here."

Xu Jin quickly stood up and took the thanks. This is the famous Yangming Mind Studies. It was even popular in later generations and was praised as a powerful tool for solving all problems. I have to read it carefully.

At this time, the disciple brought a bowl of water and fed Wang Shouren and two of them, but the light in the latter's eyes became dimmer and he said weakly: "Xu Ziqian, as the saying goes, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. Some things are not something you can avoid when you want to. Lan Daoxing's bull nose is quite friendly with me. You might as well walk around more in the future, which may be beneficial to you."

Xu Jin couldn't help but feel moved. When Lao Wang was dying, he was thinking about mentioning himself. He was very good to him, his junior, so he bowed deeply to Lao Wang who was already dying.

Seeing that the master seemed to be out of reach, Wang Hongfu hurriedly called all the other disciples in. Master Lan Daoxing and disciples also came in, and everyone surrounded Wang Shouren.

Looking at the master whose eyes were gradually dissipating, the disciples were crying. Wang Hongfu leaned into Wang Shouren's ear and asked in a low voice, "What else do you have to keep with you?"

Wang Shouren grinned, a smile came out from the corner of his mouth, and a index finger on his right hand pointed lightly in front of his chest, "This heart is bright, what else can you say!" After that, he closed his eyes peacefully.

"Master!" The disciples cried in unison, and the people waiting outside the yard burst into tears when they heard the movement.

On October 14, the eighth year of Jiajing, Wang Yangming died of illness in Qinglong Lane, Dageng County, Nan'an Prefecture, Jiangxi Province. Although he died in a foreign land, he was not lonely. The soldiers and civilians along the way all wore mourning clothes to see him off, and were deeply loved by the people!

After Xu Jin was mourning and mourning, he personally sent Wang Shouren's coffin for a journey. He returned to Nanchang three days later to meet Wang Cuiqiao and continued to go to Shangrao County, Guangxin Prefecture.

While Xu Jin was still on the way back to Xujia Village, Lan Daoxing's master and apprentice had already arrived at Xujia Village first. After a little inquiry, he found Xu Jin's parents' grave.

As the saying goes, one person has achieved enlightenment and ascended to heaven. Xu Jin has been soaring to the top of the world over the years and has become the king of the different surname of the Ming Dynasty. All the members of the Xu family naturally benefited from it.

Today, Xujia Village is no longer the dilapidated mountain village that year. The wide and flat official roads have been built to the entrance of the village. The houses in the village are full of large houses with courtyards. Moreover, the area of ​​the village is several times larger than before. People come and go, and it has become a bustling and bustling town. There are endless people who come to visit the "Former Residence of King Beijing" every day.

Because of this, the arrival of Lan Daoxing and his disciples did not attract much attention. They found out a little about Xu Jin's parents' grave.

However, when the two masters and apprentices saw the tomb of Xu Jin's parents, their faces changed drastically and they hurriedly left Xujia Village without stopping.

It was not until he left Xujia Village for more than ten miles that the little Taoist priest Qingfeng said with lingering fear: "Master, it is clearly a place where the dragon is broken. The angry one is cut off. Xu Jin's parents were buried on this land. It is a perfect tomb of a family. It should be a family of children. But that guy actually lived well. Not only was he a high official and generous salary, he had a lot of beautiful wives and concubines, but he also had a lot of children. How strange it is!"

Lan Daoxing said with a serious expression: "It can be confirmed now that this boy has indeed changed his fate by a master who has defied the heavens. It turns out that there are people outside the heavens. There is such a powerful person in this world that he can reverse a person's fate. It's terrible and terrible!"

The little Taoist Qingfeng stuck out his tongue and said, "It's really terrible. It would be great if I could see the master behind it. A little tip would benefit a lot. I don't know what kind of blessing this Xu Jin had cultivated in his previous life, but he actually met such a god. Alas, why didn't I meet him?" After saying that, he glanced at the master next to him with disgust.

Lan Daoxing praised the boy with a blow-up shot and taught him a lesson: "It's already your kid's fortune to meet a teacher for ten years. Go quickly and don't meet that person again." After that, he kicked the little Taoist Qingfeng in the butt.

Qingfeng touched his butt unhappily, took a big step and ran away, leaving his master far behind, and deliberately kicked the dust high.
