Chapter 571 Do Confucians also believe this? Poor monks are not evil monks
In fact, generally speaking, when meeting talented young people, people in their position are rarely tempted.
But once they respond to this, it is obvious that it is the other party's talent, and it is difficult for even them to ignore it.
Regardless of what Li Bai was like in his previous life, he is undoubtedly a human race in this life... Besides, Taibai Jinxing was originally a human race who practiced to become an immortal, but he was born in the Dongzhou human race, not the Nanzhou human race.
Now that the memory has been sealed, reincarnation... In the words of Emperor Fuxi, it will be another matter whether Li Bai admits that he is Taibai Venus in the future... Don't worry about it when the Jade Emperor himself can't bear it.
After all, Taibai Jinxing can be said to be a confidant of the Jade Emperor. Many times, even some heavenly government affairs are directly left to Taibai Jinxing to handle. Moreover, if he did not trust Taibai Jinxing, he would probably not be able to do the job of recruiting people.
It won't always be left to him to do it.
Among them, Taibai Jinxing's own ability cannot be denied, otherwise, he would always give the work to him, but fail to complete the task... Wouldn't this trust be wasted in vain?
After all, with a status like the Jade Emperor, how could he have an unreasonable preference?
Even little Nezha, who is full of privileges in the Jade Emperor, would have done it if he hadn't been the descendant of Nuwa, the only direct descendant of Taiyi Zhenren in Yuxu Palace, and the sworn brother of Erlang Zhenjun...
Regarding those things, no matter how loyal Li Jing is, it will be difficult for them, father and son, to continue to live in heaven.
But speaking of Nezha, his past life memory has actually been restored when he reshaped his refining incarnation... I am afraid that according to Master Taiyi's idea, he might not want him to take the opportunity to give up the name "Nezha"
With a new identity, he returned to the three realms as a "spiritual pearl".
But perhaps because it was self-defeating, little Nezha's hatred for Li Jing at that time directly took away the control of the body... This may also be the reason why "Lingzhuzi" took the initiative to give in, but in fact, Lingzhuzi has already
It has become a thing of the past, and now only Nezha is left in the Three Realms.
Moreover, the father and son have also reconciled.
When Li Jing was able to hand over the Linglong Pagoda to Nezha without any worries, it proved that there was no longer any barrier between father and son.
There are many anecdotes and strange things in the Three Realms, but the ones that are truly known to the world are only superficial...Wu Jing believes that there is a lack of a responsible recorder and disseminator.
And he wants to be this person.
So...even the monks who wanted to return to Jiejiao and came to investigate little Li Bai didn't find out that besides Miss Gongsun, there was actually a split soul of Zen Master Wu Jing beside him.
Doppelgänger.
Now he saw Wang Xuance and Zeng Zi wielding hoes one after another, as if they wanted to dig into the corner of the Madonna... He couldn't help but take out the pen and paper he carried with him to record this famous painting.
Xiao Li Bai obviously didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing on the way to find his master... For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with it.
Zengzi's temperament was naturally much more easy-going than Wang Xuance's, and it was obviously not the behavior of a gentleman to make things difficult for a child... and he shouldn't take advantage of others' danger.
"It's rare to see a young man with such talent." Zeng Zi broke the deadlock, took out a copy of "The Analects of Confucius" and presented it to Li Bai, "I will give this book to you as a souvenir."
Wang Xuance turned sideways and looked at Zeng Zi with a bit of confusion, but he didn't say much at this time... and temporarily stopped thinking about disturbing the situation. He just used the power of his own blood to attack Xiao Li Bai's human blood.
He mobilized his strength a little bit.
Li Bai was still young, which was not the best time to practice the power of human blood. Wang Xuance only opened a valve for him, allowing his body to adapt to this power independently...
In fact, there is no fixed formula for the cultivation of the power of human blood. Each person's cultivation method and characteristics can be said to be unique... The most important point is that the human body will self-regulate and find the one that is most suitable for them.
The rhythm of blood circulation.
If you practice forcefully, it will be beneficial and harmless.
In contrast, in Taoist practice, the age of seven is a key point for entry.
Seeing that it was just two human seniors who were supporting the underachievers, Zen Master Wujing, who was hiding aside, would not be disappointed because he failed to see "a good show". He still recorded the scene. Perhaps Li Bai would be "in the Three Realms" in the future.
When he became famous, this encounter was also an important memory in his life.
If you don't keep it all, there will be a moment when you think about whether you should follow Wang Xuance or one of Zengzi to leave, instead of continuing to the East China Sea to find Jin'ao Island where Master Jie's sect is.
After Xiao Li Bai left, Wang Xuance curiously asked Zeng Zi: "Did you just give him a copy of the Analects?"
"Enough." After all, Zeng Zi was one of the sages of Confucianism. He had a pair of majestic and bright eyes, which could more or less see through some of Li Bai's details. "Although he has the appearance of soaring talent, he is not solid...and his aura is not solid."
His luck is elusive, and in addition, he studied under Wudang Shengsheng. It would not be a good thing if he forced himself to follow the path of civil and political affairs. But with his talent, perhaps in the near future, there will be many more poems and articles handed down in the Tang Dynasty.
Maybe."
"Confucianism also believes in this?"
"One method can lead to the enlightenment of all things." Zengzi smiled slightly, "I, the Confucian, do know a little bit about this way of observing Qi... Although I don't fully believe it, it can be used as a reference."
A true Confucian scholar is by no means a pedantic person...especially Zengzi and others who were direct descendants of Confucius. They had the boldness of their master as an example. As disciples, they would inevitably inherit some habits.
Wang Xuance nodded to express his understanding. He considered himself a civil servant and not a military commander, but even if he understood the aura of awe-inspiringness, he also didn't consider himself a Confucian disciple.
As far as today's Tang Dynasty is concerned, literati and scholars are not necessarily Confucian disciples, and Confucian disciples are not incapable of practicing chivalry with swords.
There is no essential conflict between the two.
There is no separation between civil and military families. This is the tone of the Tang Dynasty today. If any of them are missing, they will not be able to stand in the court.
Either they were beaten so hard by the civil servants that they couldn't open their mouths, or they were beaten so hard by the generals that they couldn't move their hands... Even though the Zhenguan era has passed quietly, under the Tang Dynasty under the rule of Emperor Li Zhi, this traditional show is still preserved.
A dynamic court is the greatest helper for a capable king like Li Zhi... Besides, he has been observing politics in the Zhenguan court since he was a child, so he actually doesn't think this is a bad thing.
Only an incompetent emperor would be afraid of ministers who could not be controlled.
Li Zhi, a man who wants to inherit his father's imperial ambitions, obviously will not worry about this. But today's courtiers are still not as unrestrained as the Zhenguan veterans, and when they take action, they are all worldly...
According to Li Zhi's opinion, let alone passing on this tradition, even if it is here, it probably won't last long.
.......
The difference between Dongsheng Shenzhou and Nanfangbuzhou is actually quite big.
Just like demons, you encounter them less in Nanfangbuzhou...There are fewer demons in Nanfangbuzhou. There are basically two reasons. One is that the home of Zhenjun Erlang is at the mouth of Guanjiang River.
When he hunts, he naturally sticks to the principle of staying close, and then sweeps out in circles; secondly, during the Zhenguan period, Xue Rengui, the war god of the Tang Dynasty, led the Xuanjia cavalry to wipe out demons everywhere.
It was actually at that time that Xue Rengui's human bloodline power began to truly break through and evolve.
But since entering Dongsheng China, whenever little Li Bai stayed in the wilderness at night, he would almost certainly be attacked by demons.
Even Miss Gongsun who came with him was miserable... Although she had good talent, her training time was still short after all. Fortunately, the sword cultivator was naturally good at attacking, and some ordinary monsters were really no match for him.
But the frequency is too high to withstand... While the swordsman's attack is sharp, his fragile body can also easily become a breakthrough point for the demon.
"I thought this journey was a test for little Li Bai..." Miss Gongsun cut off the head of a wolf demon and sheathed her sword... There was a hint of exhaustion in her eyes, "I didn't expect that the real sufferer would be
it's me."
In fact, along the way, Miss Gongsun had already discovered that with the "Qingping Sword" protecting Little Li Bai, what kind of monsters could get close to him?
There is no need to worry about this kid being abducted. This kid followed "Qingping Sword" and walked through the mountains and wilderness. He didn't bump into a few pedestrians along the way... The only person who was a little surprised was Wang Xuance whom he met at the junction of the two continents.
With Zengzi...but fortunately, the two parties only had a little contact, and that was it.
However, for little Li Bai, whether it was the power of human bloodline activated by Wang Xuance or the "Analects of Confucius" given to him by Zeng Zi, they were obviously opportunities that ordinary people could not reach.
This is where his luck lies.
Luck is actually conserved... When a person has good luck, there will always be an unlucky person around him who has a lot of bad luck. Miss Gongsun thinks that she is this unlucky person.
Because the noise of killing the wolf monster was a little louder tonight, and the smell of blood was floating in the mountains...it obviously attracted other monsters.
Judging from this momentum alone, it is also a difficult enemy.
Hissssss——
The basilisk in front of him was a yellow snake monster spitting out words. It had open and closed lips and teeth, and jagged fangs. It also erupted with a smelly smell... which made Miss Gongsun extremely uncomfortable.
Miss Gongsun's eyes were firm. Although she also thought about giving up halfway and leaving...but this obviously did not suit her Taoist heart. For practitioners, if there is something wrong with the Taoist heart, it is very likely that after so many years of hard training,
He was completely wiped out.
Besides, these monsters are not to the point where she really can't deal with them... The master asked me to walk alone in the three realms to gain experience. Isn't this journey just a training? Moreover, it is our responsibility to conquer demons. If we retreat because of this,
There is no need to do any sword training.
To practice swordsmanship, you must have an attitude of going forward in an indomitable way.
Miss Gongsun always remembered her original intention. Her practice was not purely for immortality, but she thought that one day, she would be able to stand beside the Third Prince and let him treat him differently.
Generally speaking, if a woman is based on emotion, then naturally it cannot be treated with common sense if it is transformed into motivation for practice.
Miss Gongsun continued to stimulate her potential here, and little Li Bai, who was heartless, slept very soundly under the protection and isolation of Qingping Sword... Even if the snake demon's body was broken into several pieces,
Jie's body fell beside him, but it did not wake him up.
Miss Gongsun, who had almost exhausted her strength, collapsed beside Xiao Li Bai... looking at the crescent moon in the sky, and then looking back at the Qingping Sword beside her, with a hint of helplessness in her envy.
People compare to each other.
Outside the mountain, Zen Master Wujing naturally did not let other monsters into the mountain... He clasped his hands and looked at the monsters in front of him with a calm expression, as if he was narrating a very trivial matter, "Now that we are here,
Well, why not just stay and listen to the poor monk lecture?"
None of the demons left. They all sat in place obediently, trying to look as pious as possible...
It's not that they don't want to leave, it's that they really don't dare to leave and can't leave...
It's not like I didn't want to challenge the opponent before, but...some of them were overtaken on the spot, and some of them had their legs broken.
"Where did this evil monk come from?! How could he be so evil?"
More than one demon was muttering similar words in his heart.
As if he could see through their thoughts, the other party even replied: "Oh, by the way... I forgot to tell me my family name. The poor monk is not a demon monk, but a monk from the Great Ci'en Temple of the Tang Dynasty, under the seat of Tripitaka Tathagata.
Disciple, Sha Wujing.”

Danger!
The second day.
Miss Gongsun, who had recovered, had already cleaned up the corpses of the snake demon and the wolf demon... She even covered up some of the traces of the battle in the mountains.
After Miss Gongsun finished all this and left, just as the sun was rising, the "Qingping Sword" woke up Little Li Bai and reminded him that he could continue on his way.
"call--"
Miss Gongsun looked at little Li Bai who had successfully set off, patted her chest and said, "You are really lucky. If another goblin had come last night, I would have had to seek the protection of Qingping Sword..."
As for Zen Master Wu Jing, he naturally hides his body and reputation deeply.
Those goblins who came last night and those who usually eat people were all saved by Wu Jing, including their souls... As for those who had not eaten before, they all went to the underworld to report.
The precept in Buddhism that people are not allowed to kill is obviously not a restriction for eminent monks who practice the consciousness-only teaching.
If we take it seriously, the Buddhist precepts are not used to restrict the behavior of eminent monks... They are only used to restrict those who cannot control themselves, and use external force to restrain them to achieve the purpose of practice.
Master has a saying that has benefited them a lot: "Instead of obeying those precepts without knowing why, why not think about why these precepts were formulated?"
Buddhist precepts are not formulated out of thin air. They are finally written down after practice and are not set in stone.
Just like the idea of "abstaining from meat and fish"... it was spread from Nanzhou to Xizhou.
There is also the "Killing Precept", which at first only prohibits killing innocent people indiscriminately, but because some people are stupid and can't really distinguish between good and evil, and some clever talkers are good at converting black and white with words...Buddhism simply takes one step to get it right.
, directly set the "killing ban" so that no one has to worry about it...
This is also the reason why eminent monks like Fa Hai are able to ignore the precept of killing and realize the Tathagata themselves.
