Chapter 22 Every road is a blood road

"How do you kill your inner demons?"

"have no idea!"

Yun Zheng thought for a moment and said, "If you need help, don't worry, I'll be there."

"You won't be polite. If you need help, I won't let your men go."

"That's right. While you are meditating, help me keep an eye on my family's treasures and don't let thieves steal them..."

Yun Zheng walked out of the family temple with his hands behind his back. He looked at the falling snow and wanted to curse. The current situation in Wugou was very dangerous, very dangerous. There is only a thin line between genius and madman. Those who have passed the level of obsession are geniuses.

, those who cannot pass the level of obsession are lunatics. Buddhism emphasizes that in the process of enlightenment, you should kill demons and Buddhas when you encounter them. This idea comes from the Zen Master Yijing. He once mentioned: "You can achieve what you want.

Follow the Dharma and understand it, but don’t teach others to mislead them. Go inward and outward, and kill wherever you encounter them. Kill Buddhas wherever you encounter them, and kill ancestors wherever you encounter them.”

No matter what you see, it is all fake and imaginary. Only when you are bearish can you truly cultivate without worries and achieve positive results. The obsession in Wugou's heart is too much and too heavy. As his old friend, Yun

Zheng knows very well that this test may not be easy to pass.

Yun Zheng didn't know whether his explanation was correct, because becoming a Buddha has always been just a legend, and those legends were different from each other and were not legal at all.

After the saint in "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" spent nine years in seclusion in the mountains, the first thing he said to the world was "God is dead."

What will he say after he comes out of seclusion? I even want to know if this guy will be burned with fire after death and will produce countless relics like Xuanzang - I have never seen this thing before!

Yun Zheng really wanted to pick something from Nietzsche's thoughts that could help Wugou. The madman once said - "This work is an unprecedented gift to mankind, and the voice of this book will resound throughout the ages. It is not only

The tallest book in the world is the truest book on the mountaintop - the whole phenomenon and mankind are far below it - and it is also the deepest book. It arises from the richest truth and is an inexhaustible source.

, full of treasures, you can put down the bucket and get it at your fingertips."

Yun Zheng agrees with the saying that all laws are unified. Whether it is Western philosophy, ancient Buddhist doctrines or obscure Confucian theories, once they are reached to the extreme, they will all derive the same thing.

Yun Zheng didn't know what the process of Zen meditation was, but he knew some of the fruits of Zen meditation. He was going to write it down and show it to Wugou, but he was afraid that he would become obsessed with it and be completely ruined.

Nietzsche's and Schopenhauer's theories were read very seriously when I was in college just to pick up girls... Nietzsche's stuff was too radical, but Schopenhauer's theory was relatively gentle.

Schopenhauer advocated that the only reality is the will to live, that is, blind and aimless efforts to survive. According to Schopenhauer's point of view, life is the access to will. Since human desires are infinite and never satisfied, life is full of

It is pain. Happiness is only the temporary disappearance of pain. For Schopenhauer, the only way to escape pain is to deny all desires and reach a state of complete indifference to life, which is similar to the Buddhist nirvana. Painful

Transient disappearance can be achieved through compassion for others and contemplation of works of art.

Yun Zheng put down the pen in his study with satisfaction and re-read the exposition of Schopenhauer's theoretical principles that he had written down. He flicked the thick stack of paper in his hand with his fingers and felt very proud. Good things never come.

There is no distinction between the West and the East, and there is no distinction between the past and the future. It's a bit ahead of its time, but it's not a big problem. Anyway, those monkeys in the West are still consuming hair and blood. It will take another three to four hundred years before the Renaissance begins.

Schopenhauer believes that the four different manifestations of the principle of sufficient reason are: law of cause and effect, logical inference, mathematical proof, and behavioral motivation. Yun Zheng does not intend to fully explain it clearly. Firstly, he does not have the ability. Secondly, he thinks that only

It is enough to simply discuss the law of cause and effect that is closest to Buddhist dogma.

Being able to catch a wave in the vast ocean is enough for a person to shine through the ages. There is no need to swim in that ocean, you will drown. If you really see someone doing that, if that person is not the Jade Emperor, he must be

God.

These days, I have been hiding in my study, racking my brains to study Schopenhauer, and I have treated my daughter poorly. As soon as I went out, I saw the little girl looking at me resentfully, and finally stretched out her arms to ask her father to hug me.

Putting down the paper in his hand, he gave his daughter a big bear hug with a smile. At this time, he could only let go of the Wugou matter. Anyway, he would be fine for a while.

He carried his daughter to the bearskin cabin. The housekeeper lit a small stove here as usual. The temperature inside was very high, so there was no need to wear fur coats. Both father and daughter were wearing single clothes. Yun Zheng happily played jigsaw puzzle with his daughter, a series of laughter

Continuously falling down from the wooden house, Lu Qingqing held her son and listened quietly for a while, then left with her son in her arms with a smile on her face. Once the mother and son went up again, the father and daughter would be unable to play.

Lu Qingqing's knowledge of interests does not mean that others know their interests. After the father and daughter played for a while, a big bearded head came in. He threw the colorful tiger-skin cloak aside and said loudly: "I won't play jigsaw puzzle anymore.

Let's play pick-up sticks!" As he spoke, he took out a handful of thin sandalwood sticks. Each stick was polished smooth and smooth, which showed that a lot of effort had been put into it.

When the little girl Luo Luo saw Di Qing come in, she was even more happy. She rushed over and gave Di Qing a hug, making Di Qing laugh happily. She sat down on the seat by the window, spread her hands, and let the little girl come from

He holds a small sandalwood stick in his hand.

Yun Zheng sighed and said, "You are so stubborn and won't let go!"

While Di Qing pretended to snatch the last stick with the little girl, he said angrily to Yun Zheng: "I have no choice, I have something to ask for, so I have to put down my body to flatter you, and I started flattering you since I was a little girl.

"

Yun Zheng hugged his daughter who had collected all the small sticks and said with a smile: "Actually, your subordinates should hold on a little longer. No one cares about things that are easily obtained. This is why they have been poor and unlucky for many years, so

This is the result of not believing that good things will happen to you.

I have been studying a kind of science recently, which is about cause and effect. When I figure it out, we will have a good chat."

"What nonsense are you talking about! When you returned from a battle with a great victory, the soldiers under your command were rewarded with rewards, those who gave you money were given money, and every one of them was so fat that they farted in their crotches. I heard that some of the soldiers married second wives. Now my soldiers want to

I can't even get a full meal, so I quickly thought of a way to make money. The brothers are waiting for dinner." Di Qing took out a clay doll from his arms and handed it to the little girl, looking at Yun Zheng with a hopeful look on his face.

I’ve been holding it in for several days.”

Yun Zheng thought about it and said slowly: "Do you know the ancient Tang-Tibet Road?"

Di Qing nodded and said: "How could I not know this road? It starts from Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, passes through Xianyang, goes west along the eastern section of the ancient road, crosses Longshan, passes through Qinzhou in the middle of Longxi, Longxi, Lintao to Linxia, ​​and ends in Bingling

Cross the Yellow River at the temple or Dahejia, enter Qingtang, pass through Gushan, Ledu, Huangyuan, climb Riyue Mountain, wade down the river, Princess Buddhist Hall, and then pass through Qieji Grassland, Daheba, hot springs, Huashi Gorge,

Along the Yellow River, around Zhaling Lake, Eling Lake, over the Bayan Hara Mountains, across the Qingshui River in Yushu, across the Tongtian River in the west, to Jieba Tang, up the Ziqu River to Zaduo, along the avenue that Princess Wencheng walked on.

, cross Dangqu, cross Tanggula Pass, Naqu, and finally reach Luoxue.

It's just that this road has been occupied by your subordinates. I'm afraid the merchants in Sichuan are unwilling to hand it over, right? Do you mean that you plan to hand over this road? I have no merit and no reward."

Yun Zheng stared at Di Qing dumbfounded for a long time before saying, "Why do you think I will give this trade route to you? You are overthinking. My subordinates will rely on this trade route for their livelihood in the future."

Di Qing's old face turned red and said angrily: "Since you don't want to give it, why are you mentioning him?"

Yun Zheng hugged his daughter tightly and said, "I'm just making an analogy. When I talk about the Tang-Tibet Ancient Road, can't you remember the other Ancient Tea-Horse Road? My men are occupying Qingtang, but don't forget that yours

My subordinates are guarding the choke point of an ancient tea-horse road in Dali, and the Wuchi Road near my hometown Douchuan is part of that road."

Di Qing closed his eyes and thought for a moment and said: "Is the Ancient Tea Horse Road you are talking about the commercial road that started from the foothills of Cangping Mountain in the middle of Sichuan and finally arrived at Luoxu? That trade road has now been abandoned. Besides, the Tubo people are all poor.

Damn it, we have no shortage of war horses now, so who cares about their products?"

Yun Zheng knocked his head and whispered: "Who told you that road only leads to Luosu? That road can go to Nepal further west, and after Nepal, you will reach ancient Tianzhu. Do you still think that road is not

valuable?

Did you do anything else besides killing people in Dali? Weren't you attracted by the prosperous local business when you passed through Douchuan? If there were no big profits on that road, who would invest so much money there?

Build so many shops?”

Di Qing's expression was gloomy, and he muttered for a long time before saying: "That business road is too dangerous and too difficult."

Yun Zheng sneered and said: "When I opened up the trade route between Shuzhong and Qingtang, did I say it was difficult? If it wasn't difficult, do you think that trade route would win our soldiers? Those civil servants would have seen bloodshed.

It pounced like a shark.

Since we are fighting to kill Han, this life is worthless! In order to find a way for my wife and children to live, it is impossible not to risk my life. Those merchants in Sichuan are willing to accompany me on the expedition to Jiaozhi, what can't your men do? If

He is a coward and deserves to be hungry."

It took Di Qing a long time to raise his head and calmly said to Yun Zheng: "Let's go try it. It's okay for brothers to work hard, but we have no capital or experience in doing business. How should we do it?"

Yun Zheng poured a cup of tea for Di Qing and handed it over and said: "You underestimate your own value too much. As long as you, Di Shuai, say something, I'm sure countless businessmen will pounce on you, hold your thighs and stuff money into your hands."

You, there is no shortage of merchants in the world. What you lack is just business routes that can make a lot of profits. Once this business route to ancient Tianzhu is opened up, your subordinates’ problems of eating and marrying will be solved.” (To be continued)
