Because of the Moon God's question, Lu Yan sorted out the evolution from the original five elements to Zisizi's theory of the five elements. Zisizi's thought opened up Mencius' theory of the goodness of nature.
Mencius believed that people are born with four qualities: benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom. People can maintain and expand them through introspection, otherwise they will lose these good qualities.
"Sincerity" (faith) has become the highest heaven in Mencius' theory. The moral concept of "sincerity" is defined as the essential attribute of heaven, and heaven is considered to be the origin of the inherent moral concepts of human nature.
At the same time, God has will. The replacement of dynasties in the human world, the changing of kings, as well as the rise and fall of life and death, wealth and poverty, are all determined by the destiny of heaven. Humans must be obedient to heaven. "Those who obey heaven will prosper, and those who go against heaven will perish."
Providence is irresistible.
It can be seen that Xunzi scolded Zisizi's Five Elements Theory, and there was a reason why Mencius was also brought in to scold him. Xunzi's thoughts and Mencius's thoughts are just like the sparks hitting the earth, the theory of evil nature, and the use of controlling destiny. King Fahou said
, are completely different from Mencius’ theory.
Xiaoshengxianzhuang gathered the three schools of Zisizi, Mencius and Lezhengzi. It stands to reason that Xunzi should regard them as enemies and bandits, and they should not have any contact with each other till death.
But the beauty of Little Sage Zhuang is that it teaches scholars to practice knowledge and moral character, and it promotes Mencius’ educational philosophy and does not advocate those political ideas. At this time, Mencius’ people-centered thoughts and educational thoughts had a certain influence, but the theory of destiny
But no one believed it.
Xunzi recognized moral education very much, and Meng Si was an old friend with him, so Xunzi had a good relationship with Xiaoshengxian Village.
Lu Yan learned from Xunzi and was able to clarify the essence of the three schools of Xiaoshengxianzhuang. Combined with his own insights, the realm of Confucian learning finally reached great success.
Breakthroughs in internal strength come from accepting the science of this world.
When he was in Korea, Nong Yu made him realize that he already had a family in this world and had a sense of belonging to the world.
Now the Moon God threw the theory of Yin Yang and Five Elements in front of his eyes. Lu Yan, who had been dominated by the scientific ideas of later generations, finally suddenly realized that he had been avoiding the science of this world. He knew how to use the so-called qi and internal power, but he avoided its origin.
The theory of Yin Yang and Five Elements has such a profound influence even in later generations, so in this Qin Dynasty world, will it itself be science?
After accepting the five elements of Yin and Yang, and with Lu Yan's weak understanding of the five elements of Yin and Yang, he was actually able to make the originally weak ice-attribute internal force in his body use the interplay of ice and fire to rapidly grow and achieve the harmony of ice and fire.
Lu Yan became even more interested in this theory, which was previously regarded as metaphysics.
Among the hundreds of schools of thought, those who have the deepest research on Yin-Yang and the Five Elements should be the Yin-Yang family and the medical school. The Yin-Yang family studies astrology and numerology, while medical doctors study the human body. They are two different directions, and both are of great value for learning.
"I was wrong. When I exchanged knowledge with the Moon God yesterday, I should have exchanged the most basic Yin and Yang techniques. What kind of forbidden techniques were needed?" Lu Yan slapped his head and regretted it endlessly.
Ju Shuang saw him twitching his face, sat down and asked, "What's wrong with you? It's obvious that your strength has improved, but you still look sad?"
Lu Yan didn't hide anything and told the truth: "It's nothing. I made a deal with the Moon God yesterday, and now I feel like I'm at a loss."
She recalled that when she was protecting Lu Yan, she stared at the Moon Goddess. She felt that the other person's strength should be higher than hers, and she couldn't help but feel worried, "That Moon Goddess of the Yin Yang family, what deal do you make with her?"
"I asked her for the Six Soul Terror Curse and the Sleeping Curse Seal. Now that I think about it, the most basic principles of onmyoji are the right way." Lu Yan lamented. At that time, he was thinking about Han Fei, which was really a mistake.
Ju Shuang thought that Lu Yan was interested in learning martial arts again. She was a little speechless and joked: "Sir, do you still want to learn Yin Yang Technique? With the quality of being eager to learn, if there are ten dendrobiums in the world, you may be able to monopolize eight."
"As long as it is something that I think is useful, I will naturally learn it if I can. Moreover, Onmyoji will be very helpful to me in the future. As long as-"
Before she finished speaking, she rolled her eyes and interrupted, "As long as you can't learn to die, learn to death. You used this as an argument every day in Songhai. At that time, I was worried that one day you would drown in a book.
sea miles.”
When she mentioned it like this, Lu Yan thought of his own style in Sanghai and scratched his head, "Haha, isn't it you, Sister Ju Shuang~"
"I don't have the ability to swim in the sea of books."
"But Sister Ju Shuang can transform the sea of books into rivers, divide them and guide them, just like Dayu controlled the floods. Wouldn't this be able to save me?"
Faced with Lu Yan's cowardice, Ju Shuang asked coldly: "Is this the reason why you scattered letters all over the room every day and then waited for me to clean them up?"
Lu Yan was embarrassed, "Ahem, it's all in the past."
Seeing Lu Yan's expression, she put her words back on track, "Okay, that's enough for the jokes. Onmyoji is very powerful, and the sword can go off the edge. It is feared by hundreds of schools of thought, saying that it is not on the right path. Young Master, you still have to fight against the Moon God.
I can trade with people I don’t know about, but what if something goes wrong in my cultivation?”
"Of course I won't practice it directly, I'm just observing its principles. What's more, what I trade is not basic onmyoji."
"Forbidden arts are even more dangerous."
"Don't worry, I'm just preparing for a rainy day, I may not need it."
Ju Shuang was a little unsure after hearing about the precautions, "Will we be hostile to the Yin Yang family in the future?"
Lu Yan nodded. The Yin Yang family played a lot of villain roles in Qin Shi Mingyue.
"In the future, this is for sure. They are also preparing to defect to Ying Zheng. Their purpose is unknown, but they obviously will not be of the same mind as me."
"Understood, I will pay attention." After finishing speaking, Ju Shuang was about to leave, but suddenly turned back, "Seeing that you have a sad face, you have forgotten the main thing. Mr. Qingxu of the Taoist Tianzong just came here to talk about it.
The sword will take us up the mountain before it starts."
Lu Yan was a little surprised, "He is responsible for Confucianism alone?"
"Well, every family has a Taoist disciple to receive them. The Confucian Tianzong Qingxu, the famous Tianzong Qingle, the Mohist family Zongqingqing, the Yinyang family Zongqingzong, and the peasant family Zongqinggu. Master Meng and Master Xun admired Qingxu quite a lot. Come to think of it,
These disciples sent by Taoism are very good in cultivation."
"Well, I've met Qingxu, and he's really very accomplished." Lu Yan recalled that when we met, he was a man with a calm temperament and an open-minded and free-spirited temperament, which is truly extraordinary.
"That's all. As long as you don't cause trouble, sir, I think we will live a peaceful life in the next few days." Ju Shuang stood up and walked around, speaking in a strange tone.
What do you mean I don't make trouble?
I haven’t had any trouble since I came to Taiyi Mountain. It’s all trouble with me...
While complaining in his heart, Lu Yan remembered something again and asked her, "Please help me pay attention to the doctor."
"Doctors have always been around and their whereabouts are unpredictable. They probably won't show up. I'll keep an eye out."
A medical family that Lu Yan admired very much.
Walking around the world with a worldly attitude, never participating in political struggles, and practicing the way of entering the world with compassion for others. Such an attitude is really rare and valuable.
If a family of doctors can practice the Taoist sect's mental method, I don't know what level they can reach.
In addition, their research on the Yin, Yang and Five Elements of the human body is also a valuable wealth of knowledge.
It's a pity that I may not have the opportunity to meet the doctor this time.
Lu Yan stood up and opened the window. The red clouds had dispersed a lot, and the day was about to pass.
There are still four days left for the sword debate at Miaotai.
Confucian, famous, Mohist, Yin-Yang, peasant, Gu Shuang is right, after a few consecutive games like this, he should calm down next.
