Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 729
It's hard to imagine the ghosts and spirits in the world, on this peaceful day.

Li Xiuyuan, a born saint, will meet the last saint in an unremarkable mansion, in an ordinary ancestral hall.

The former is a born sage who is determined to govern the world of ghosts and gods, and uses strong methods and methods to clear the world and reset the rules of Yin and Yang. Confucianism, determined to carry forward and educate the people.

One was young and full of vigor, the other died halfway, and died of illness on the bed, and the god of ghosts and gods, who was already aging, appeared in front of him.

But those who can take this road, no matter whether they have met before or are familiar with each other in the future, they are worthy of respect.

Because whether it is Li Xiuyuan or Zhu Shengren, their final goals are almost the same, and they are all for the four words of peace in the world.

Zhu Shengren said first: "I have been a ghost for a long time. I originally wanted to reincarnate and contribute to the world with a useful body, but I didn't, because I can't let go of this world. Most of the people left in this world are notorious, so the old man
Today, I don't want to see the second person fall into the same fate as the old man. "

"I don't know what great opinion Mr. Zhu has?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

"You will die." Zhu Sheng said humanely.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Everyone will die, and I am no exception, and I have never thought about immortality."

"Your way is endless." Zhu Shengren said again.

"How did you meet?"

Zhu Shengren said: "You have killed too much, and the cause and effect are too heavy. Once your luck declines, you will encounter a catastrophe of life and death, which is almost impossible to survive. Moreover, your way has gone astray. You want to rule ghosts and gods, and you want to calm down the world. It is not advisable, you can succeed only if you are firm together, if you can't let go, you will
get nothing. "

Li Xiuyuan became silent when he heard the words, and he had to say that this Zhu Shengren had a very vicious vision, and he really cared too much.

"I heard from a god that you can resolve my karma for me?" He turned to ask, "I wonder if Elder Zhu can help me with this?"

"Then you have to agree to the old man's request first." Zhu Shengren said.

"Mr. Zhu, please speak frankly." Li Xiuyuan said.

Zhu Shengren said: "Be sure to leave the capital after one month, and don't go north for the rest of your life. If you agree, your Karma old man will memorize it for you and help you achieve enlightenment."

"How to help?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

Zhu Shengren said: "Da Song gave birth to and raised you for twenty years, and you have been protecting the country for twenty years. This old man can only help you after this great karma."

"How do you say that Mr. Zhu wants me to serve the court?" Li Xiuyuan said: "I didn't expect Mr. Zhu to be a patriotic person, but the current court is not the court when you were alive. Things are different, and time can change. There are so many things, why do I feel that the Great Song Kingdom is going to be ruined and cannot be saved?"

"No, you have no choice. This karma is irrelevant, and your way cannot be fulfilled. This old man has both selfishness and sincerity, and it's not just to persuade you." Zhu Shengren said: "After becoming a ghost, this old man understands many things, such as"

"For example what?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

Zhu Sheng said: "For example, the emperor of the next dynasty should be named Zhu."

"That's terrible, Mr. Zhu's good fortune stretches, and he will bless his descendants, and the descendants will have an emperor." Li Xiuyuan laughed.

He didn't mean to make fun of it, on the contrary he was a little surprised.

Leaving the luck of blessings to his descendants means that this sage Zhu can neither become a saint nor a god, but can only be reincarnated. For future generations, if a certain person is born at the right time, relying on this luck and blessings, he will become a king
Even the generals and ministers are not enough to exhaust this luck, and only one emperor can inherit such luck and blessings.

"Because only in this way can I inherit all your karma with the power of a dynasty. Your Dao will start after the old man's luck is exhausted. When the karma is eliminated, your Dao will be a way to reach the sky." Zhu Shengren said.

"How can I say that I have to wait for hundreds of years?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"Some things are worth waiting for, just like the old man is waiting for you." Zhu Shengren said.

Li Xiuyuan said again: "I'm curious about a few things, Mr. Zhu, please don't be offended. It is recorded in Mr. Zhu's book that you really died of beriberi?"

Zhu Sheng said: "No, he was framed and poisoned by villains. The old man's ideas have influenced many people in the world. Some people agree with them, and naturally others oppose them. It's not surprising that the dispute over ideas has turned into an intriguing fight."

"Idea? Preserve the principles of nature and eliminate human desires?" Li Xiuyuan said.

Zhu Shengren's face darkened immediately when he heard the words: "Has the world distorted the old man's ideas to such a serious extent? Do you know what the old man said?"

"Not sure."

Zhu Sheng said: "Diet is the law of nature, the delicacies of mountains and seas, human desires, husband and wife, the laws of heaven, three wives and four concubines, human desires, the old man's preservation of natural principles and elimination of human desires, which means that we should eat normally and not pursue those things. Luxurious delicacies from mountains and seas are just a waste of money, extravagant and arrogant

Well, how can there be half a point?Husband and wife, is it natural?The old man teaches the common people to love their wives, and they should not indulge themselves recklessly with three or four concubines. "

"Those vicious literati in later generations took the meaning out of context. This is to make this old man notorious for thousands of years. Moreover, when I talk about Neo-Confucianism, I even debate Yin and Yang, and use the theory of Yin and Yang to solve the confusion of ghosts and gods, so that the people of the world should not be superstitious about ghosts and gods. Is this also wrong? gone?"

After finishing speaking, even after being dead for so many years, I couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

The beautiful idea has been misinterpreted like this, if his body is not dead, he might jump out of the coffin right now.

After hearing this, Li Xiuyuan understood the idea of ​​Mr. Zhu.

He advocated that the people should be diligent and thrifty, not extravagant, advocated monogamy, not three wives and four concubines, and even taught the people that ghosts and spirits are not to be feared.

But the seemingly beautiful concept has offended many people behind it.

First ban extravagance?This offended many dignitaries and dignitaries.

Monogamy?
As far as the current era is concerned, it is still too early, and it is not appropriate at all. Even the emperor is in the Sangong and Liuyuan, so how can he advocate monogamy?
Let the people not be superstitious?Isn't this cutting off the incense of temples all over the world? Those people and ghosts who rely on these for food have to join hands to destroy you.

"Tell me, is the old man's idea wrong?" Zhu Sheng asked humanely.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Your idea is right, but the world is wrong. This world cannot accommodate your idea for the time being, but I think your idea is a seed. If you plant it today, it may bloom and bear fruit in 1000 years. After all You can be sanctified because God agrees with your ideas, otherwise you can’t either

So sanctified, isn't it? "

Zhu Shengren calmed down, then lost his mind and said: "It's useless, I'm not a saint, I'm only a half saint, even if the idea spreads, it can only meet half of my expectations."

"But it doesn't matter. Your idea can restrain the ghosts and gods in the world. As long as you succeed, it will also help the old man's idea to carry forward. Therefore, when the old man helps you, he is also helping me. Do you have any other questions now?"

Li Xiuyuan said: "There is one last thing, that is, later generations said that you made your daughter-in-law's belly bigger. Is it true?"

Zhu Shengren's face suddenly turned red and purple, as if he was changing his face, and blue smoke rose from his head.

"Good boy, old man, old man" he trembled angrily, looked left and right, suddenly picked up a ruler from the altar table beside him, rolled up his sleeves, and called Li Xiuyuan.

"See if this old man doesn't teach you a lesson, this old man has been innocent all his life, so is it possible that he will bear such a stigma even after he dies?"

As he said that, he knocked on the head.

Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, he didn't block his breath today, there was nothing unusual within three feet of Mr. Zhu approaching him like a ghost.

Zhu Shengren seemed to have seen his surprise and said, "I asked the old man to tell you that the ghosts and gods you are doing are not close. It is because your breath is not compatible with the ghosts and gods. Your breath is upright and pure, and the ghosts and gods' breath is cold and mixed. The old man The conceptual explanation is that yin and yang are incompatible and mutually exclusive, so

And ghosts and gods can't get close, but after death, the old man is half holy anyway, and his breath is close to you. You can disperse ghosts and gods, but you can't disperse the old man. "

"Old Zhu, are you really going to hit me?" Li Xiuyuan reacted quickly and dodged flexibly.

Years of practicing martial arts are not for nothing.

However, he also knew that his question was too offensive, and it seemed to challenge the bottom line of this Zhu Shengren.

"The old man said one thing, hit him as he says, don't leave, boy." Zhu Shengren chased after him with a ruler.
