"Two great scholars, students dare not lie. This scripture is indeed not written by students. It is a dream."
“Fifteen years ago, the student suffered a serious illness, and then he often dreamed of an old man preaching in his dream, reciting this scripture over and over again. The student didn’t know what this scripture meant, but every time
Excerpting and dictating it every day will eliminate fatigue."
"I met Mr. Wenyuan a few days ago, and I have a clear understanding of Confucianism, and I have a different understanding of this scripture."
When Song Zhishu spoke, he made some slight modifications, but the general content remained unchanged. He was not afraid that the other party would notice anything strange. After all, it was impossible to tell the truth from the lie whether looking at things logically or from any angle.
The most perfect lie in the world is the truth, which is nothing more than a certain amount of rhetoric.
"Receiving karma in a dream."
For a moment, the great scholar Gu Yun could not help but speak out. The two of them did not have any doubts about Song Zhishu's answer. Even on the way here, they had already guessed that this scripture was probably not written by Song Zhishu.
It’s not that I look down on young people, but the full text of the scripture “Da Da” expresses how to become a gentleman and what it means to be a gentleman.
It is difficult for a person who has not been exposed to Confucianism and Taoism to have this kind of understanding. He may have doubts about what a gentleman is, but he will not express it so clearly. This requires certain cognition and insights.
I have read countless books and traveled thousands of miles before I could write such an article.
So when Song Zhishu directly admitted that this was not his fault, the two of them developed a huge fondness for Song Zhishu. A gentleman does not lie and seeks truth from facts.
"Sure enough, my little friend, I have great blessings. I met a sage who came to me in my dream to teach me. I just wonder if this sage has recited other scriptures?"
The great scholar Ning Ping sighed with emotion, and asked about other scriptures.
As soon as these words came out, Song Zhishu immediately shook his head: "The saint in the dream did not teach other scriptures, saying that I have not yet understood clearly and cannot teach other scriptures."
Song Zhishu replied that he did not directly say that there must be other scriptures, but left an introduction. This was selfish and seeking benefits for himself.
"Is it clear?"
Great Confucian Gu Yun was a little puzzled and couldn't help but look at Great Confucian Ning Ping. The latter thought for a moment and then said: "It should be a matter of Confucian realm. Saints teach, and students naturally need to understand. But Song Xiaoyou is afraid that he is only thinking about cultivation."
Tao, I didn’t delve too deeply into the scriptures of the saints, so I stagnated for a long time.”
The great scholar Ning Ping gave a guess, and Song Zhishu immediately agreed and nodded: "In the past fifteen years, students have indeed been busy cultivating immortals, but they have not paid too much attention to understanding."
Hearing this, the two of them nodded, even more certain that this was the result, but they were also communicating with each other spiritually.
"What do you think?" Great Confucian Ning Ping asked Great Confucian Gu Yun.
"A gentleman is sincere. This is a good boy. I like him very much." Great Confucian Guyun was extremely satisfied with Song Zhishu, which left Great Confucian Ning Ping speechless.
"I feel that what Song Xiaoyou said should be true. Whether intentional or not, this scripture comes from Song Xiaoyou. In any case, Song Xiaoyou is extremely important to me as a Confucian."
"He is sincere and has a good heart. This is true. I recognize this person." Ning Ping's great scholar said.
After deciding on his idea, Ning Ping the Great Confucian looked at Song Zhishu with a serious look on his face.
"Little friend Song, as a contemporary scholar, I am your elder, so I won't hide some things from you."
"This scripture is of great significance to Confucianism. We have been studying it for a long time and have concluded that this scripture can be the first Confucian scripture in the world. In this way, Confucianism owes you a huge favor.
"
"Of course, you can refuse. This is your freedom, but I still want to say something. Now that the saint has passed away, in a few years, troubled times will come. All the major righteous paths in the world are preparing for a rainy day, thinking about breaking the situation, and welcoming the troubled times."
"So if little friend refuses, we will also rewrite a new sutra based on this sutra, little friend. We still lack the kindness of my little friend, but I must do this, little friend.
Forgive me."
"If you are angry and blaming me, I will pay any price to appease your anger. I also ask you to agree to my request for the sake of the people of the world. I hereby implore you to seek a chance for survival for the sake of the people of the world."
When Ning Ping opened his mouth, he directly stated his purpose and even how to proceed. He was extremely candid, and at the end of his speech, he bowed deeply to Song Zhishu, showing great uprightness.
Dare to be the first in the world.
"A gentleman does everything he can to be righteous." Song Zhishu returned the greeting to the other party. Regarding Ningping's words, Song Zhishu deeply felt the spirit of Confucian decency.
To be honest, these two great Confucian scholars could have completely swallowed up this scripture. The two of them joined forces to say that this scripture was written by them. It can be said that no one would believe it.
I was in a humble position and had no qualifications to fight for anything, so I could only accept the situation. But what I didn't expect was that the great scholars Ningping and Guyun would come to Taihao Sword City in person. Not only that, but they would also respect my ideas so much.
For this alone, and the character of this Ningping scholar, Song Zhishu admired him.
So he opened his mouth and said this sentence: A gentleman should do everything possible. This is a saying in the university. Its original meaning is that a gentleman will make every effort to achieve the state of perfection. This is exactly what the Ningping Confucian is today.
It can be seen that people like Ning Ping Da Ru are upright and pursue extremely high spirits. Such people must care about reputation and will never force others. However, for the sake of the common people in the world, Ning Ping Da Ru did what he was least willing to do.
He does not hesitate to sacrifice his own reputation and violate his own morality.
Because he is pursuing a higher realm of perfection and dares to be the first in the world.
Upon hearing this, Master Gu Yun immediately understood what Song Zhishu was thinking. He couldn't help but smile, looked at Song Zhishu and said with a smile, "Thank you, little friend."
He was grateful to Song Zhishu, and his gratitude was genuine and not mixed with any other interests.
"A gentleman is already beautiful as a man, not to mention the beauty of the people in the world. If this scripture can help people in the world, it will be a great honor for Mr. Song."
Song Zhishu looked serious and spoke out. He did not show any pretense in his words, but explained his own thoughts.
After studying in university, Song Zhishu had a different understanding of this article. The way to university is to understand morality, and the word "virtue" is the most important.
At that moment, Great Confucian Gu Yun and Great Confucian Ning Ping showed surprise in their eyes. As great Confucians, how could they not feel whether Song Zhishu was speaking from the bottom of his heart or a lie?
"Song Xiaoyou has the heart of a gentleman, and I admire him. With this kind of character, his future achievements will be no less than those of me." Great Confucian Ning Ping spoke up, praising Song Zhishu's character.
Then, the voice of Master Gu Yun sounded. He looked at Song Zhishu and spoke slowly: "Since my little friend has such a moral character, I don't have anything to hide. I admire your talent and intend to accept you as my disciple."
"But you don't need to give an answer immediately. I will stay in Taihao Sword City during this period. If you don't mind it, you can come and listen to my teachings. If you feel that I am not good at learning, just treat it as a
Just kidding, if you think I am qualified to serve as a teacher, what do you think of Song Xiaoyou talking about becoming a disciple?"
When Guyun Daru opened his mouth, he also said bluntly that he wanted to accept Song Zhishu as his disciple, but he did not appear too anxious, but wanted to show off his talents, which would have the best effect.
Faced with the words of Gu Yun Da Ru, Song Zhishu bowed very respectfully.
"Sir, I am willing to accept this junior as my disciple. This junior is very happy. It is just a matter of apprenticeship. It is of great importance. Song needs to think carefully about it. However, this junior does have many confusions and would like to ask sir for advice one by one."
Song Zhishu was naturally willing to become a disciple. Anyway, he was now poor and had nothing to do. It was really a bit high for a dignified scholar to choose him. However, Song Zhishu understood better that directly becoming a disciple would be too profitable. This was not appropriate and required a period of contact. In this way,
better.
"If you have any questions, you can ask directly. Ningping Daru and I have plenty of time."
Guyun Daru smiled and asked Song Zhishu to sit down and ask.
Song Zhishu thought for a while, sorted out some of his doubts, and then spoke.
"The student has four doubts, and I hope these two gentlemen can enlighten me."
"First, if the saint is enthroned, the world will be in chaos. Where is the chaos? How much impact will it have?"
"Secondly, how does the Confucian realm help monks? Or, can younger generations practice immortality and Confucianism at the same time? Or, is it best to practice only one kind?"
"Thirdly, although I have listened to this scripture for fifteen years, and Mr. Wenyuan has given me some guidance, I still feel that it still lacks a finishing touch. I hope these two gentlemen can give some guidance to the younger generation."
"Fourth, what is the strength of Confucianism?"
Song Zhishu asked four questions in a row. After he finished speaking, he realized that he had asked too many questions, so he couldn't help but quickly added: "This junior has too many questions, please forgive me, gentlemen."
These four questions were indeed the things he wanted to know most at the moment. Zhou Wenyuan knew some of them and gave a few answers, but they were not comprehensive. Now that the two great scholars were here, he naturally wanted to ask clearly.
However, in the face of Song Zhishu's inquiry, Guyun Daru and Ning Ping Daru were slightly silent. They seemed to be communicating about something. After a short while, Guyun Daru's voice sounded.
"My little friend, of these four questions, the second, third and fourth questions can all be answered, but for the first question, do you really want to understand it?"
"I think my little friend's state should be the state of Qi training. It might be a good thing for you not to understand some things."
What Gu Yun Daru said is a bit euphemistic, but the meaning is simple. The realm is too low. There is no need to know these things. What can you do if you know it? Do you have any solution? It is better not to know anything, this will not work.
psychological burden.
But when faced with what Gu Yun said, Song Zhishu looked calm and slowly spoke while looking at the two of them.
"Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!"
His voice was calm, but his eyes were extremely firm.
When the voice fell, the two great scholars couldn't help but trembled.
