If I am not a Confucian saint, I will set off a revolution

"Can you hear it?"

Lin Ke looked at the cloudless sky curiously, then patted the water dragon turtle on the head: "Are you going to be promoted to the third realm?"

"Yes, Master!"

The water dragon turtle's ferocious head split open its mouth and laughed. After a moment, the smile turned into a bitter face: "But I can't condense the demonic thoughts!"

"Oh?" Lin Ke became interested: "What is the difference between demonic thoughts and Confucian thoughts?"

This water dragon turtle was captured near the Vulcan Mantis Island. It has a solid foundation in the late second realm. It seems that it still has inherited memories. It was also said that it has Xuanwu bloodline, which is quite extraordinary.

The most important thing is that there is no family yet, so there is no need to worry about taking in the younger ones and leaving the older ones.

Just like King Kong's family, if someone subdues the little Golden Crow prince, a whole bunch of brothers will probably come to seek revenge.

"I don't know either!" The Water Dragon Turtle sighed: "The inherited memory tells me to eat more and move less, and I will naturally reach the third level. I also want to seek the guidance of the human race, but I am afraid of being stewed!"

"I see." Lin Ke touched his chin: "Are you underage?"

"It seems so..." Water Dragon Turtle nodded when he heard this, and then shook his head: "But even if I can directly become the third realm when I reach adulthood, such a foundation is still unstable."

The memory of the Water Dragon Turtle shows that their race can have three realms as long as they reach adulthood.

Lin Ke rarely saw such a monster clan, and had never even heard of it.

It is estimated that he does have Xuanwu blood, and the blood concentration is not low.

"You are lucky." Lin Ke knew the reason and was ready to preach: "In that case, I will tell you."

As the demon with the highest realm under his command, if he could break through to the third realm, it would have a big impact on his combat power.

"The so-called thought is something that condenses the spiritual will of a person...or a demon. To condense thoughts, you must have your own 'intention'."

"For example, some sword cultivators will practice their sword intention, and Confucianism, Taoism and Zen are the three most powerful ideas. Among them, Confucianism is the first among hundreds of schools of thought. Once a thought comes out, it will reach Yang. It is vast, more powerful than the illusory Tao and the compassionate and universal Buddha.”

"If you want to condense your Confucian ideas, you need to read various Confucian books and understand the essence to form your own ideas. For example, read "The Great Learning" to understand the meaning of Mingde, read "The Doctrine of the Mean" to understand the meaning of the mean, and read "The Doctrine of the Mean" to understand the meaning of the mean. "Spring and Autumn" to understand the meaning of righteousness and so on."

Lin Ke told Water Dragon Turtle what he had learned before.

This is the benefit of inheritance, this is opportunity... Water Dragon Turtle's eyes showed excitement, and he refused to let go of a word Lin Ke said. He kept it all in his heart for fear of missing a sentence.

"I have heard that the 'intention' condensed by most demons is the intention of killing, or the intention of the five elements. There are also a few who can know other meanings, but they are only a minority."

"As a Xuanwu relic, you can try the meaning of water or earth, or the meaning of hunting or preying. If you want to read and write, you still have a long way to go."

It’s not that the demon race can’t learn.

can!

However, most monsters cannot bear their temper and are naturally restless. After they grow into second-level monsters, they will even less want to read and write.

"Ah this..." Water Dragon Turtle was also confused.

Lin Ke knew it when he saw him like this. It was probably that Water Dragon Turtle had been thinking about concentrating on Confucianism before.

"You have to know that even those who have started reading and literacy since childhood, there are still many who stop at one level and two. If there is no foundation, it is extremely difficult to fully understand the Confucian principles and condense the meaning of the text."

"but……"

"If you really want to learn, I can also teach you." Lin Ke smiled: "Once you learn how to read and write, you may not stick to Confucianism in the future. You can try one or two of other schools of thought and see. Which one is the most favorite and suitable for you?”

The choice lies before the water dragon turtle.

Should we condense some meanings of hunting, killing, survival, etc. that all other demon clans can condense, or should we study writing?

If it is to gather the will of those monsters, it will not be difficult. It is estimated that he will be promoted in a few years. But what if you want to learn to read and write?

That would probably take a long time.

The world is fair.

Whatever you think is easy and simple, everyone does.

And if everyone knows something, it means it is difficult for you to stand out.

If you want to surpass the demon clan in the same realm, it is difficult to use any other method except reincarnation.

But now, a difficult road lies in front of the water dragon turtle.

Are you pursuing a higher position in the future, or are you pursuing a shortcut now?

The Water Dragon Turtle pondered for a moment and said seriously: "Let's forget it. I feel like sleeping after looking at human things."

Lin Ke was speechless when he heard this.

He laid the groundwork so much, but it turned out to be real.

"Are you sure? I even have the Tao Te Ching, the Book of Changes, the Diamond Sutra and other sutras in my hand." Lin Ke followed the temptation and said: "If you gain enlightenment, you may not be able to become the Holy Realm Demon Emperor in the future and lead an area."

"The Holy Realm..." Water Dragon Turtle's voice was full of longing, and the next moment he shook his head: "Forget it, it's better for you, Master, to become the Holy Realm, and I will enjoy the hot food in the back."

Good guy.

Lin Ke was even more speechless: "Why are you so lazy? Didn't you just want to reach the third level?"

"But I don't want to study!"

The water dragon turtle was like a primary school student, opening his small eyes innocently and helplessly: "Once the giant mountain banyan gave a sermon, I listened to it from a distance for a while, and then I heard the fish next to me say that learning human classics is the most basic and most important thing. The minimum thing is to memorize those words..."

As he said that, the Water Dragon Turtle lamented: "There are so many words! How can I memorize them! Instead of doing that, I might as well just be a turtle in the quagmire. It's comfortable anyway!"

Hearing Water Dragon Turtle's words, Lin Ke suddenly felt something.

What he said is quite consistent with some of Zhuangzi’s thoughts.

However, if the son fails to teach, it is the father’s fault.

Since this water dragon turtle has become his beast, it will definitely not work without culture.

Otherwise, how shameless would it be to ride out on an uncultured horse, speaking dirty words and talking nonsense?

How proud would he be if his horse always quoted scriptures and talked about the past and present whenever he went out to talk?

Lin Ke suddenly realized what some parents who wanted their children to succeed thought.

So he made a stern face: "No, you have to learn! Hey, I've thought about it. From now on, as long as I control the beast, I have to learn!"

Lin Ke touched his chin and had already thought about what to do with the education classes for beast masters in the future.

"All...all beast mastering must be learned? Really, really...enough!" The Water Dragon Turtle shuddered.

He could imagine how he would be targeted and retaliated against by Lin Ke's beast masters later.

"No, I have to pretend to be the best and do it for their own good, otherwise I will be beaten by a group of people..." (End of Chapter)
