Journey to the Heavens from the Mountain God

Chapter 183 Jixia Academy
After the Tu Niang Niang bid farewell, Wang Mingzhen returned to the City God's Law and began to sort out the harvest of this trip.

At this moment, endless auspicious colors emerged between the heaven and the earth, auspicious clouds spread all over, and a purple light descended from the sky. Taoism evolved and laws were intertwined, which seemed to contain infinite mysteries.

Wang Mingzhen spun the God of Creation with all his strength, and looked at the vision, but it was an old woman in her seventies who gave birth to a son with white hair, and became an old man when she fell to the ground. The old man was even named Li Dan.

"Li Dan, this is the birth of Lao Tzu!"

Wang Mingzhen exclaimed, a strange color flashed in his eyes.The birth of Laozi means that all schools of thought will be born one after another, and the general trend of humanity is approaching.

Form a self-contained team, divide the luck, and dissolve the seal!This is Wang Mingzhen's most essential thought at this time.But which one to use as the foundation, he still has some hesitation and hesitation.

"Taoism, enlightenment and meditation, learning from the world, being pure and inaction, the way is natural, staying away from the world of mortals, being at ease, violating the way of God, is not suitable for me!"

"Confucianism, grand righteousness; Mohism, both love and non-aggression; Yinyang school, yin and yang and five elements; Strategist, vertical and horizontal; Miscellaneous school, both Confucianism and Mohism, combined with the name and law."

"Legislatives, follow the law of the past and do not follow the present, combine techniques and powers; famous scholars, debate names and facts; farmers, encourage farming and mulberry, and have enough food and clothing."

"Military strategists, be wary of war and mergers, practice Taoism and protect the law; doctors, save the world and save people, generalize the same; novelists, do not have their own ideological core, but only record folk gossip and alleys."

Logically speaking, a novelist is Wang Mingzhen's best choice.He has created a lot of online novels, some of them hit the street, and some of them are masterpieces. This is his real wealth.

However, the novelist is an unpopular theory among the hundreds of scholars, and the luck that can be divided is limited.

It is very rare to get a lot of luck and merit like this. If you miss such a good opportunity, it will be very difficult to completely dissolve the seal of heaven!
For a while, Wang Mingzhen had a hard time making a choice.After thinking for a while, he decided to travel to Nanbubuzhou to accumulate knowledge and strive to create his own theory.

And the first place he chose to travel was the birthplace of Lao Tzu.As soon as he took a step, the vision disappeared, and the void returned to calm, as if it had never appeared.

At this time, the secret of the sky was covered by a burst of purple air, making it hazy and chaotic, making it difficult to see clearly.And the place where Lao Tzu is, has lost all sense.

Wang Mingzhen was not discouraged either. The birth of all the sons was not only blessed by human aura, but also blessed by heavenly aura. It is normal if they cannot be found.

He calmed down and started to travel.For decades, he traveled to Jin, Song, Chen, Zheng, Wei, Lu, Cao, Chu, Qin, Wu, Yue, Yan and many other countries in Southern Buzhou.

During this period, while absorbing the essence and blood of the ancestral ancestors of the ancestors, he polished the body of the divine way; at the same time, he visited great sages from all over the world.

During the tour, he rescued Jiang Xiaobai, the son of Qi State who was bumpy and wandering, and escorted Jiang Xiaobai back to Linzi, the capital of Qi State.

Outside the Jimen Gate of Linzi City, Wang Mingzhen somehow sensed the arrival of an opportunity.After calculation, he knew that it was the time when Jixia Academy was born.

With the secret help of Wang Mingzhen, and the assistance of Guan Yiwu and Bao Shuya, Jiang Xiaobai ascended the throne smoothly.

When discussing meritorious deeds and rewards, Wang Mingzhen retired and asked Jiang Xiaobai to give him a piece of land outside Jimen to build a school.

After Jiang Xiaobai pondered for a moment, he gave Wang Mingzhen the land of a hundred hectares outside Jimen, and allowed him to build a school.

Afterwards, Wang Mingzhen built a huge Jixia Academy in Jixia, which was as large as the palace city of Qi State.

When the Jixia Academy was completed, Wang Mingzhen wrote letters to Laozi, Confucius, Mo Di, Guiguzi and other great sages, inviting them to give lectures at the Academy.

The first great sage who responded was Mo Di, the founder of the Mo School.He once discussed Daoism with Wang Mingzhen for three months, and worked together to perfect the magic power of the Mohist school, so the friendship is naturally very deep.

After receiving the letter, Mo Di didn't hesitate at all, and directly brought his disciples to Linzi, the capital of Qi.

These disciples who followed Mo Di were the last group of Mohists.They all have unique skills, and no difficulty can hinder their progress.

In the eyes of these Mohists, opening roads across mountains and building bridges when encountering waters are all easy things to do.

Make the words of the Mohists fall into practice.This is where Wang Mingzhen's letter can move Mo Di, and it is also the root of Mo Di's coming to Jixia Academy.

At the same time, Confucius encountered many difficulties in preaching. After receiving Wang Mingzhen's letter, he resolutely brought a group of disciples to Linzi City.

When it comes to walking distance, it is really not much slower than Mohist disciples.Kong Qiu is proficient in the six arts of a gentleman and possesses extraordinary combat power.

Under his precepts and deeds, even the gentle and gentle Yan Hui has a good swordsmanship, and his imperial skills are even more superb.

It can be said that there is absolutely no simple role for a scholar who can travel around the world in this war-torn world.

This is true for the disciples of the Mohist school, and it is also true for the disciples of the Confucian school, and the rest of the schools are no exception!

After coming to Jixia Academy, Confucius and Mo Di became neighbors, and they argued and questioned each other five miles away from each other.

Mohism advocates light burials, not joy, while Confucianism insists on thick burials, and educates the world with rituals and music.

Mo Di said that "Officials are not always noble, but people are never forever cheap", so people should be appointed on their merits.This made Confucius, who has always advocated "orderly respect and inferiority", scold Mo Di for having no king and no father!
Not only Mo Di and Kong Qiu were arguing endlessly with each other, but Wang Mingzhen even witnessed Zilu and Qin Huali's spectacular scene of literary fighting first and then martial fighting.

Although Confucianism and Mohism both pay attention to "convincing people with reason", but in a hurry, it is inevitable that there will be some bumps and bumps.

After all, big fists are justified, and only when you win the opponent can you make the opponent calm down and listen to your reasoning.

As time went on, although the disciples of the two families had no major injuries, they continued to suffer from minor injuries, which made the medical officers in the academy somewhat insufficient.

At this time, Bian Que, a doctor, led hundreds of children of doctors, and came to the school.After the arrival of these medical children, the daily "discussion" became more frequent without any worries.

As the enthusiasm of the sages in Jixia to preach and teach became higher and higher, the medical disciples in the academy became more and more popular.

However, the children of the medical family didn't complain about this situation, and instead they seemed to be happy with it.After all, there are not so many opportunities for them to practice in other places.

The Legalist Guan Yiwu is Qi Xiang, the number of times he came to Jixia Academy to preach has decreased, and his disciples are also very rare.This is not what he did intentionally, but the way of Legalism is different from other schools.

No matter what the legalist students are academically, first of all they should have the belief of "no distinction between relatives and estrangements, no distinction between high and low, and one must be bound by the law". Only in this way can they be regarded as qualified to learn the way of legalism.

Otherwise, even if he is full of legalist words, he is just a boastful person. How could Guan Yiwu recognize such a disciple?

Originally, Guan Yiwu's strict criteria for accepting apprentices has been called the strictest gentleman in the academy by the scholars of Jixia Academy.

But when Guiguzi arrived, Guan Yiwu's record was broken by Guiguzi!Among the tens of thousands of students in the academy, only Su Qin and Zhang Yi were selected by Guiguzi as disciples.

Guiguzi's several lectures shocked tens of thousands of students in the palace.Whether it is the magic number, Yibu, or the sun, stars, and latitude, they are all in the palm of his hand.

Occupying the past and observing the past, everything is true; the momentum of war and conquest, the strategy of the six secrets and three strategies are all in the chest; the changes are endless, and the deployment of troops is unpredictable.

Even with the art of arguing with the tongue, he has a wide range of memorization and knowledge, and he can understand the situation clearly, and he can't speak well when he speaks and argues.

Along with Mo Di, Kong Qiu, Gui Guzi and other great sages, and Wang Mingzhen also gave lectures from time to time, the statement of Jixia Academy almost spread to all the countries in Nanfangbuzhou.

All of a sudden, countless underappreciated scholars gathered towards Linzi City like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

Being able to trek across mountains and rivers to come to Jixia Academy in this chaotic world was already a big test.

More and more scholars came, making the environment of Jixia Academy more open.Humanity energy gathers, countless dao rhymes pervade, and there is a faint prototype of a holy place of humanity.

The increasingly large group of scholars made the daily material supply of the Academy more and more tense.As the great sacrificial wine of Jixia Academy, the pressure of material supply is all on him.

He personally took action to open up spiritual fields with great supernatural powers, plant spiritual grains, elixir, and spiritual plants; he even captured fierce beasts, established animal gardens, and so on.

In addition, there are many smart workshops such as spiritual food, alchemy, refining, wine making, etc., to supply daily needs.

Around the distribution of these cultivation materials, the disciples of various schools in the academy started a lengthy discussion again.

The amount of resources is crucial to practice, and even great sages such as Confucius, Mo Di, and Bian Que are very concerned about it.

"Those who have a state and a family don't worry about scarcity but inequality!" Confucius said first.

Mo Di also nodded in agreement with Kong Qiu's point of view, but Wang Mingzhen thought it over and over again, and finally came up with a negative opinion.

"The world does not suffer from widowhood, but from injustice!"

As soon as Wang Mingzhen said this, Confucius and Mo Di frowned slightly, only Guiguzi stroked his beard and smiled.

It's not that Guiguzi is more intelligent, but that there are more disciples from Confucianism and Mohist schools, and he is in the midst of the situation, subconsciously ignoring his inner thoughts.

After negotiation, in addition to the supply of basic materials, the rest of the cultivation materials need to be debated and struggled by the students themselves.

Afterwards, Wang Mingzhen set up a scripture platform in the center of the school palace as a place for debate.In front of the scripture platform stands a copper pillar, engraved with the law of the school.

In this way, the disciples of the Academy use the number of victories in the Jingtai debate as a measure to divide up the monthly cultivation materials.

With the passage of time, the structure of the academy gradually changed, and many students were gradually divided into ranks and ranks.

Wang Mingzhen, the Grand Priest of the academy, presided over all affairs of the academy, and had the most noble status; followed by Confucius, Mo Di, Guiguzi and other great sages.

Thirdly, those scholars who stand out by virtue of their own abilities are collectively called "scholars under Jixia".

Finally, there are those ordinary scholars who can also listen to the lectures of the scholars, but they can only rely on basic materials to barely practice.

Most of the time, ordinary students can't understand the principles taught by the great sages in the academy, and they even have to ask those scholars from Jixia repeatedly before they can barely understand.

As the school's reputation grew, Wang Mingzhen finally understood why he came out at the right time.From the theories of your gentlemen, some students have come up with other ideas to express their own words.

For example, Deng Xi, a down-and-out scholar in the state of Zheng, unexpectedly realized the "learning of distinguishing names" from the way of Legalism, and called himself a "famous scholar".

The masters he set up no longer explore the original meaning of the law, but directly distinguish the name from the reality on the basis of the law, and even use words to reverse the cognition of right and wrong.

There is also Sun Wu, who was originally a down-and-out aristocrat in Qi State. He learned the way of military strategist from Guiguzi's vertical and horizontal theory.

There is also Xu Xing, a disciple of Mo Di's school, who realized the way of farming from the words of Mohism, with the core idea of ​​"sowing a hundred grains, encouraging mulberry cultivation, and sufficient food and clothing".

There is even Shi Jiao, an exiled scholar from the Qin State, who combined Confucian classics, Mohist words, famous scholars' debates, and Legalist principles to form a miscellaneous theory.

With the continuous introduction of scholars in the Jixia Academy, those Confucian scholars under Confucius' seat were almost overwhelmed.Every day is either in the debate, or on the way to the debate.

After all, those newly emerged doctrines are either influenced by the words of the Legalists, or inspired by the words of the Mohists, or they are the words of the vertical and horizontal, and they do not take Confucianism seriously.

Therefore, those Confucian scholars were outnumbered and had a very difficult time. It had been a long time since they had won the debate and obtained those extra cultivation resources.

When Zou Yan, a native of Qi, came to Jixia Academy with "Five Virtues Ending and Beginning", these Confucian scholars could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Zou Yan claimed to be a yin and yang family, and he always talked about the world and the world, so many scholars in the academy thought he was talking nonsense.

However, after passing the debate, these disciples retreated one after another, and could only aggrievedly admit the existence of the Yin Yang family.

It can be said that among the hundreds of schools of thought, except for Taoism and novelists who have not yet been born, the founders of the other schools are all in the Jixia Academy.

At this time, Laozi rode a green bull and came towards Jixia Academy.His white hair is like snow, his eyebrows hang down his temples, his ears hang down his shoulders, his beard hangs down his knees, his red face and plain robes are simple and clean, like the incarnation of the Dao.

After noticing Lao Tzu's presence, Wang Mingzhen was overjoyed, and quickly invited Lao Tzu into the school to give lectures and pass down the Taoist theory.

After thinking over and over again, I finally agreed to Wang Mingzhen's invitation.But after he entered the Jixia Academy, he did not preach, but stayed in the library of the Academy.

In the blink of an eye, three months passed. Lao Tzu watched the classics of various schools of thought, accumulated knowledge, organized his own thoughts, and gradually realized something in his heart.

The heaven and the earth have a feeling, the Taoist bell rang, and there were ripples;

Between heaven and earth, fairy music flutters, auspicious clouds float, and purple air comes from the east.The blue dragon soars in the east, the red bird spreads its wings in the south, the white tiger roars in the west, the basalt bears its back on the mountain in the north, and the unicorn manifests in the Chinese side. All kinds of visions shake the world.

"I am worthy of being an old man, this kind of vision, this sound of Dao, is really extraordinary!"

Wang Mingzhen sat cross-legged, his eyes were brilliant, and he listened quietly, all kinds of great insights kept coming to his mind.
