Comprehensive Martial Arts: Read to become a sage, use martial arts to break the ban

Chapter 31

Dao can be Dao, very Dao; name can be famous, very famous.

In midsummer, Xiao Luo was still sitting upright, reciting the "Tao Te Ching" loudly.

On the side of the desk, there is a bowl of chilled lotus seed soup.

Since Xiao Luo and Xiao Han expressed their position, Xueyun City's troubles seemed to have come to an end, and no one disturbed them these days.

Li Hanyi's disciple was replaced by Lei Wujie, and Xiao Luo did not go to Changfeng Pavilion again.

There are cool winds in summer and snow in winter, which is when men are studying.

This year, he will read Taoist classics, starting with the Tao Te Ching.

"Tao Te Ching", also known as "Tao Te Ching", "Lao Tzu", and "Five Thousand Essays", was written by Li Er, who is known as Lao Tzu in the world.

It is divided into two parts, a total of 81 chapters.

Taking "Tao" and "virtue" as the keynote, discussing the ways of self-cultivation, governing the country, employing soldiers, and keeping in good health, and mostly focusing on politics, it is the so-called "inner sage and outer king" study.

The text is profound and inclusive, and is known as the king of all scriptures.

Lao Tzu said: "Tao follows nature."

"Tao" is not only the way of the universe, the way of nature, but also the method of practice.

"Virtue" is the foundation of Taoism, without "virtue", one cannot cultivate "Tao".

The opening chapter of "Tao Te Ching" is what Xiao Luo recited just now——

"The Tao can be Tao, but it is very Tao; the name can be famous, but it is very famous.

Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth, famous, the mother of all things.

Therefore, there is always no desire to observe its wonderfulness, and there is always desire to observe its sway.

These two have the same origin but different names, and they are called Xuan, Xuanzhi and Xuan, the door to all wonders. "

Xiao Luo covered his books and pondered, he had read this scripture for more than two months, thinking over and over what is Tao?What is virtue?

Tao is not an ordinary Tao.

Names are not spoken languages.

Tao is nothingness, born before heaven and earth; it is existence, giving birth to all things.

It is invisible, because Tao is nothingness; it is real, and you can see the traces of all things.

Nothing and being are just different terms, they actually come from the same source.

This identity is called Xuan.

Xuan is the source of all mysteries in the universe.

Read on, Chapter 2——

"Everyone in the world knows that the beautiful is beautiful, and this is evil. Everyone knows that what is good is good, and this is not good.

Existence and non-existence are born together, difficult and easy complement each other, long and short complement each other, high and low complement each other, sound and sound harmonize with each other, and front and rear follow each other.Heng also.

Therefore, the sage does not do things, and teaches without words; all things do not start, are born without existence, do without relying on them, and do not live after they are accomplished.

Husband only lives in space, so I don't want to go. "

Everyone in the world knows that beauty is beauty, which is ugly; goodness is good, which is evil.

Being and non-existence are interdependent, long and short are compared with each other, high and low are the direction of each other, sound and echo are echoed, everything is a mutual relationship.

Therefore, a sage acts inaction, teaches silently, is not arrogant, does not take profit, does not hold power, and does not claim credit.

Although a sage does not claim credit, his credit will last forever.

Xiao Luo was speechless, the first half of Chapter 2 turned out to be the theory of relativity.

In the entire "Tao Te Ching", the part discussing "morality" and politics occupies most of the part, but later generations pay more attention to the part of "Tao".

From the Tao into the art, it becomes Taoism.

Lao Tzu believes that all things start from Tao, so Tao produces one, one produces two, two produces three, and three produces all things.

He also said: "Dao Chong, and using it, there is Fu Ying."

A person who has achieved the Tao has inexhaustible material and energy in his body, but it will not overflow due to complacency.

The body of Tao is soft but not rigid, pure inside, unpretentious outside, and clear and transparent, which exists between heaven and earth forever.

Xiao Luo is not a cultivator, but when he entered the Immortal Ascension Profound Realm twice, he seemed to perceive the mysterious and mysterious origin.

He couldn't help feeling hot in his heart, with his martial arts and clean body, he might be able to ascend to Taoism and immortality.

The night is as cool as water and the glaze is slippery, open the window and let the moon return.

Uncle Dumb made some insect-repelling sachets and hung them under the window of the study to prevent mosquitoes from crawling in.

After finishing, Uncle Dumb sat on a recliner in the yard, shaking while looking at the silhouette of the study.

Xiao Luo didn't sleep, so naturally the dumb uncle couldn't sleep either.

Every night is like this, every year is like the past.

……

When Confucian Sword Immortal returned, it was already late autumn, and the red leaves were covered with frost.

Xiao Luo truthfully reported the grievances with Weaving Net to him: "Master, let's leave Xueyun City."

"Ugh."

Confucian Sword Immortal never expected that the people from Xueyun City would be the ones who had the first conflict with Xiao Luo.

"This is a big matter. I'll go see Sikong Chengfeng and Li Hanyi tomorrow, and we'll make a decision later."

Leaving Xueyun City, there are endless rivers and lakes.

Staying in Xueyun City, there will be a knot between Sikong Chengfeng and Sikong Chengfeng, especially Sikong Chengfeng has expressed his attitude and supports Xiao Han in winning the heir.

"Master, I don't want to embarrass you, do you also support Xiao Han?"

Xie Xuan was taken aback, he had asked himself this question more than once, and the answer was always to support Xiao Han's ascension to the throne.

In this way, Xiao Luo can be sheltered safely for the rest of his life.

But now, when Xiao Luo and Xiao Han really started the battle for the heir apparent, he hesitated.

"Luo Er, I only hope you are safe."

"Master, what did you see in the Qin Tianjian this time?"

Xie Xuan smiled wryly: "Qi Tianchen has been busy for a long time, but he has not been able to help me enter the Mysterious Realm. He said that the luck of the Northern Li Dynasty is no longer in Tianzi."

This was a surprise.

"He also said that the imperial energy seems to have shifted to the direction of Xueyun City."

"Hahaha~~ The national teacher is really interesting, this is to attract the attention of the whole world to Xueyun City."

Xiao Luo couldn't help laughing.

"Now Xueyun City has become the center of the vortex. When I left Tianzi, I heard that the troops of King Bai and King Red were also rushing here."

"Then I don't know if they are targeting me or Xiao Han."

Xie Xuan was not so optimistic: "Xiao Han's martial arts has been lost, so he can't pose a threat for the time being. But if you don't, they will punish your parents and elder brothers, and they will not let you go."

"If they dare to come, I will dare to kill them."

"Luo Er!"

Xie Xuan glared at him dissatisfied: "You are reading the "Tao Te Ching", why is your body full of tyranny?"

"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, they regard all things as straw dogs; sages are not benevolent, and regard the common people as straw dogs. Between heaven and earth, is it still like a dog?"

"The reason why I have a big patient is that I have a body and I don't have a body. What trouble do I have? Therefore, if you regard your body as the world, if you can send it to the world; if you love your body as the world, if you can entrust it to the world."

What Xie Xuan means is that people worry about great disasters because they have a physical life to preserve.

If you put your physical life aside, what trouble is there to worry about?
Therefore, those who give up their physical lives to serve the people of the world can be the sustenance of the whole world; those who give up their lives to love the world can be trusted by the whole world.

Xiao Luo was dumbfounded.

He is just a mortal, if he gives up his physical life, he has nothing left.

Compared to the enlightenment of a saint, Xiao Luo admits that he is far behind.

So he forcefully argued: "When the Dao is abolished, there is benevolence and righteousness; when wisdom comes out, there is great hypocrisy; when the six relatives are not in harmony, there is filial piety; when the country is chaotic, there are loyal ministers."

Once again, the master and apprentice disagreed.

Xie Xuan shook his head: "Luo'er, I know you always want to abolish before establishing, chaos before order, but the world is such an unsatisfactory world."
