Chapter 194: This Great Wish to Help the People (Part 2)
Chapter 194: This great wish to help all people (Part 2)
"If you only want to get started with the divine way, just one person can help the people and the country. After death, you will naturally have immortal virtues, great divine light, and achieve Yin God. However, if you want to cultivate immortals in the world, or even have both spiritual and physical appearance in the future, this is not enough."
"Immortals are mountain people. This has been explained thoroughly. This mountain is the world. In other words, the path of immortality is not only in people, in their bodies, in their hearts, but also in the world. If there is no permission from the world, how can you live forever?"
"If you talk about being separated from the world and only pursuing the mind and nature, although there are three thousand worlds in one thought, you are not a fairy way, so only the fairy way can stay in the world!"
"It is beneficial to people, so human nature has virtue, and it is beneficial to heaven and earth. Heaven and earth return to the five virtues. Therefore, when you want to become an immortal, you must not be limited to people, but know that the heaven and earth are the most common and all spirits regard each other. This is the way of merit."
"I never uphold the most preaching way. Why? People cannot be selfless, and people cannot be free from struggle. Human beings are still like this. They do not fight or do things in the world. Therefore, I do things against the way. Therefore, I love myself and start from myself to relatives, from relatives to friends, from friends to clans, from clans to country, from country to country, and the world is mixed with the world."
When Fang Xin said this, he remembered what he said in the Dafan plane: "I am the only one who is king and establishes the system. If you want to consolidate people's hearts, you must first formulate etiquette and law. However, the law should be simple and simple. Military law, civil law, criminal law, and great laws. Can you hear that Confucius blamed Zi for giving tribute to the tribute and money, and did Zilu be kind to receive a cow?"
Zigong gave money and Zilu received a cow. The people in the world were already in trouble. Parents from above should be raised, governments should be exploited, and children should be raised, and life was not enough. They also wanted to promote selflessness and emphasize "unconditional dedication and sacrifice", which was already lost. The purpose of morality is to create better times, not sacrifice.
To infinitely elevate morality and treat personal personal morality as public morality, this practice will only result in one result - that is, morality has become a tool for superiors to exploit the people in the world.
"The only thing between public and private is that the lower virtue does not violate the upper virtue. Therefore, there is virtue and benevolence as virtue, and nature begins to enter the Tao. The two are inseparable. I have finished my words. How much do you get is the same as how many points, and the future will be ripe."
The so-called lower virtue does not violate the superior virtue. In short, it means that individuals pursue interests and will not violate the development of the overall human society. The development of human society cannot be achieved by destroying the world alone.
Speaking of this, Fang Xin has already explained his Tao very clearly. His merits are not based on the mind and nature, but exist through publicity, but actually exist in the human way and the world. The mind and things are the same, and are closer to things, so it is called "one energy runs between heaven and earth", which is also the foundation of Taoism.
It is his humanitarian merit to promote the operation of humanity.
It is his merit of heaven and earth that can benefit the movement of heaven and earth.
It is not just the mind that can be tolerated, nor can it be simply unified by Hunyuan. It can be said that this is the principle of the world's "yang gains and yin advances", so it is believed that the way of merit is different when it falls in people, but it is difficult to distinguish from the merits of Zen. When it falls into heaven and earth, the difference is very obvious. It is qi but not the mind, which fills the world and exerts the five virtues, so it can stay in the world and show saints. This is the essential difference.
After waved his hand, Zhu Xin asked him to withdraw, and that's the end of this matter.
After Zhu Xin went out, he naturally left him to go, but Xiao Bing came in at this time.
Fang Xin looked at it and saw that the five energys had formed, forming the principle of birth and restraint. The true method of the Five Elements had entered the door, and then said with a smile: "Wife, your true method is considered to be the beginning, and you will not have to be bound by the Water Mansion from now on."
"Yeah, but today, there is something wrong." Xiao Bing sat down and said.
"Oh, what's the matter?"
"Have you noticed that there seemed to be some affection between Yu Xue and Wang Lu?"
"Oh?" Fang Xin did not notice it. At this time, he thought about it, but there were indeed some clues.
On that day, Yu Xue and Yu Qing each got one thing. Yu Qing refined the bloodline of the dragon and immediately added a little magical power to call the wind and rain. Fang Xin called it up to cooperate every time the rain fell. Although the cooperation was insignificant, it also added a little merit.
When he returned to the Shui Mansion, Yu Qing also focused on practicing.
But Yu Xue followed Xiao Bing to the shore. When she saw Fang Xin studying, she also wanted to learn something. Fang Xin Xiao Bing was the master, but she couldn't ask for advice from time to time. At this time, she naturally asked Wang Lu for advice, so the two of them naturally got closer.
"Then, what are the regulations?"
"It's nothing. Yu Xue has already received the title, but she is no longer a demon. If you really want to be in love, let them go. I guess she should have an idea." Fang Xin didn't care about this. He paused and said again: "You have already had the first fortune of the Five Elements, and you have also entered the door. Why don't we go to Taoist Zhou to see him refine the alchemy this time? He took a lot of medicine, but he wanted to refine the Yanshou Yangqi Pill."
Seeing that he didn't care, Xiao Bing nodded and said, "Okay, in another seven or eight years, the thousand-year-old red fruit tree in the Water Mansion will really bloom and bear fruit. Husband, I checked it and found that this Yuan Dan is extremely precious. There is no problem with some introductory Taoism. Moreover, I think it was originally a fruitful one, but in the Water Mansion, it can bear fruit every twenty years."
"Well, you can also hold a meeting for returning the Yuan Dan." Fang Xin also talked with a smile. Seeing that there was no one around, he took her hand and just one step to hide in the sky and pass through it.
At this time, Zhu Xin was returning in a ox cart. Of course, he was not without a cart, but he loved the immortal way and deliberately found a gentle ox to ride it, which was like an ancient monk.
Sitting on the ox cart, although he was thinking about it, he was a young man after all, but he was elegant and elegant. There was a heroic spirit between his eyebrows and eyes. As the thoughts rose and fell, he suddenly saw a group of people. The first four and the back four were all wearing red and black hats, but they were yamen runners with long swords on their waists. The two in front were yelling gongs in their hands to signal to avoid them along the way, and in the middle was a four-person sedan chair.
Seeing the ox cart running straight, the yamen runner in front shouted: "Who dares to collide with the magistrate?"
This interrupted his thoughts. Zhu Xin raised his head and saw that it was the magistrate's car sedan, so he asked the driver to avoid one place. He did not expect that the yamen runners would pretend to be powerful, and the two people holding fire sticks would come forward to beat them.
"Bold!" Zhu Xin's family naturally practiced some martial arts, avoided a stick, and was furious, so he flew out and kicked a yamen runner away.
Someone actually resisted, and the yamen runners were in a state of great anger.
The magistrate heard the noise and opened the sedan chair and saw that the young man was very familiar with him. After thinking about it carefully, he quickly scolded the yamen runners and said, "It turns out that it is Mr. Zhu, why are you free to go to the countryside?"
The Zhu family is the count of the county and the family of the Dingzhong. The local officials take office and need to visit him, but the magistrate met him.
"But when the teacher and friend of the visit came back, the magistrate went to the countryside, what's the matter?" After all, the magistrate was the head of a county. Although Zhu Xin was the family of Shijue and Dingzhong, he had to return to his face and get off the car and bow.
"Oh, it's not that the rain is heavy in summer, the mountain torrents have erupted, and many breaches have occurred, so I will just check it everywhere." The magistrate did not go to the countryside to check it simply, but there was something wrong.
"The magistrate is kind and loving to the people, but the students admire him." Zhu Xin said casually, but as soon as he spoke, a sudden light flashed, his body shook, and he asked again: "Is this flood like this year?"
"Why is it not? I am in the western part of Rongzhou, surrounded by mountains on all sides. Although the climate is mild and humid, the terrain is complex and there are frequent flood discharges. Not only in this county, but ten of the eighteen counties are like this!" The magistrate said with emotion.
From Fang Xin's perspective, the eighteen counties of Cui Kingdom are also 500,000 square kilometers, but the geography is complex and the mountains are continuous, from plateaus, mountains, canyons to basins, hills, plains, from rivers, lakes to hot springs and waterfalls, from karst terrain to Danxia landforms, everything is available.
Perhaps it is a blessed land for immortals, but for ordinary people, it is difficult to survive, so there are not many places to survive and the population is not very rich.
When Zhu Xin heard this, his spirit suddenly became bright, but he had a certain plan and said, "With such official duties, students dare not disturb you. Please ask the magistrate."
The magistrate nodded, got into the sedan chair, and then went forward.
"My country has Dongshui, Yihe River, Linjiang, and it converges into Liangjiang, and Liangjiang flows into Rongzhou's main trunk, and it forms a big river. Today I asked about the immortal way. When I went out, I heard about the mountain torrent. Could it be that the gods gave me the secrets of heaven and me? Is this immortal way of immortality here? "The ox cart is rushing forward, but Zhu Xin became more and more clear. After a moment, he felt that it was a cold sweat from his forehead. When he touched it with his hand, it turned out that it was his own cold sweat.
"However, to govern the Sanjiang Rivers uniformly, it involves water conservancy in ten counties, accounting for almost half of the country. In charge of this project, except for the king, only the prime minister can do it." Zhu Xin was originally a child of a noble family and was familiar with political affairs. When he thought about it carefully, he felt more and more difficult: "This project is not a year or two. If it can be completed in the first and second years, it will be a great charity. This will not only become the prime minister, but also become the prime minister."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a breath.
Although the Zhu family is a first-class gateway to Zhutai County, it is difficult to monopolize the national affairs.
"Also, if you do this project, you need to act on the whole country and consume countless financial, material and manpower. Although success in the future will make your country prosperous and strong and help the people for thousands of years, at this time, it will cost the people and cause money. The resistance and the risk are so high that I am afraid I cannot bear it."
After thinking about it, I was embarrassed and frowning.
After the ox cart was gone for a while, Zhu Xin couldn't think of a way. At this time, summer showers came again and dark clouds were covered. The driver hurriedly drove the ox cart, but saw a Shili Pavilion and hurriedly rushed up.
At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky were pressing down. Although it was only noon, it was almost like night.
It was a time to say that, and a sudden lightning flash came down from the sky, cutting through the sky, and then, with a "boom!", the raindrops as big as beans pounced down, and there was a mist between the sky and the earth.
"Young Master, you are not frightened, are you?" He tried his best to pull the frightened green bull and comforted him. The coachman hurried up to serve him.
