I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 689
So excited, even though it was another imperial examination, Song Mu felt very relieved at the moment.

Those scenes during the imperial examinations flashed through his mind. He worked so hard for an article, and the faint smile that appeared on his face involuntarily every time he wrote, immediately appeared in Song Mu's mind.

Song Mu felt more brisk for a while, and couldn't help but start writing. The theme of today's article is a word that appeared in his ancestor's article, Bing Wen Jing Wu.

This idiom comes from "Wang Liang et al. Fenghouzhao" by Shen Yue in the Southern Dynasty. It means that he can be a confidant minister with both civil and military skills. However, in the ancestor's article, there are various interpretations of this time.

The ancestor Song Kedi said that if a literati wants to master literature, scriptures and martial arts, both virtue and wisdom are indispensable.

The ancestor Song Shenglong said that there is no distinction between the literature, the scriptures and the martial arts, and the two are the best, and those who have a broad mind and a long-term vision cannot reach it.

However, in the articles written by the ancestor Song Wenrong, the adherence to literature, classics and martial arts is not the rule of a minister, but the rule of a literati. If you want to succeed, you must follow Confucianism and Taoism sincerely.

What the ancestors said is that they all follow the same path. If a person wants to be both civil and military, he must abide by his actions and heart, and both are indispensable.

It’s just that the levels of the articles of the ancestors are equal. After reading it, Song Mu felt quite emotional. It is the greatest hope for a literati from ancient times to the present. Such a person has been a hero for thousands of years.

Therefore, Song Mu is also going to talk about Bing Wen Jing Wu today, but Song Mu has a different idea, perhaps because of the changes of the times, Song Mu made a simpler explanation for it.

Bingwen Jingwu has a broad meaning and thousands of actions, but in the words of literati, they all start with writing to convey the way.

If you can be firm in your heart to convey the Tao, you can also compose essays to convey the Tao in your actions, and you firmly believe that the power of writing and poetry can prove the Tao.

Song Mu didn't know where the idea came from, but he felt that when he wrote these four words, he felt a sense of enlightenment in his heart.

The four characters "Wen Yi Zai Dao" come from Zhou Dunyi's "Tongshu·Wenci" in the Song Dynasty.

It said: "Writing is the reason why Taoism is contained."Wheel and shaft decorations are not mediocre, and they are just decorations, not to mention empty cars.

The meaning is simple and clear, writing articles is to explain the truth.

Only here, Song Mu extended the meaning for it. The establishment of Confucianism and Taoism is based on thousands of magnificent articles and poems.

Therefore, in today's world, Confucianism and Taoism are prosperous, if you want to uphold the literature, classics and martial arts, you must respect literature and be good at literature.

In this way, Song Mu's thoughts were clear for a while, and although the four characters "Wen Yi Zai Dao" were still copied by himself, this time it actually made Song Mu feel magnanimous and expressive.

In the past 40 years, I have been in this foreign land, reading books with my hands in my hands, writing at my desk, reading a lot of books to understand ancient and modern times, and forgetting to eat and sleep to write thousands of articles.

At this moment, countless fragments flashed in Song Mu's mind, and all the principles of the article written before flashed before his eyes, but this time, Song Mu just did it rashly, and had no idea to mix all these things into it .

As a result, Song Mu's eyes became even brighter, and he seemed to be more determined when he wrote the pen.

When I wrote this, there was a thunderstorm outside the window, but there was a gradual change in Song Mu's thatched cottage.

The words written by the nib of the pen began to glow with light, and after the light dispersed, countless literary spirits gushed out.

Everywhere in this world seems to be changing, the mist in the mountains and forests rises without wind, and at this moment they are all heading towards Song Mu's thatched hut.

The surrounding clouds and rain seemed to have changed because of this, there was no flash of thunder anymore, but the cultural energy gradually gathered and turned into layers of clouds, which began to fall low and float over the hills.

The full-bodied ones are clearly visible and can be grasped.

The whole sky is filled with milky white literary spirit, which surges in it, but in that thatched cottage, more literary spirit is revealed from the paper.

But Song Mu, who was sitting on all this, didn't know it. He just buried his head and continued to write at this moment. The literary energy around him was constantly gathering at this time, and finally turned into a monstrous literary vortex in the next moment.

The vortex turned, the hut was moved by the wind, the surroundings were buzzing, and the strong wind was blowing past, but Song Mu remained unmoved.

At the next moment, a ray of light suddenly flashed in the sky.

It was a faint blue ray of light, piercing through the dense cloud of literary energy at this moment, revealing a brilliant color like purple electricity.

But the blue light did not disappear, and the next moment there was a flash of red light.

The red light quickly overwhelmed the faint blue light, and at this moment it was rippling straight towards the surrounding world, and the light was turbulent, and the next moment it showed its appearance in this world.

It turned out to be the exhausted Zezhu.

At this moment, Jue Zezhu, who was in the core of Tianxing, could not stop the light surging all over his body, and the flames in it had re-formed into the human form, and he looked down this time.

Looking at the thatched hut whose roof had been blown off by the gust of literary energy, and Song Mu who was sitting in it, concentrating on writing on the paper scroll, the flames on the Zhe Zezhu danced a little bit.

It's just that the star light keeps radiating this day, and even a strange rhythm hits from the article written by Song Mu, which can make him involuntarily radiate light.

Jie Zezhu looked down in surprise, but as the blue and red lights flickered past, the atmosphere below changed again this time.

In the literary qi that had already gathered into a vortex, various visions began to show. They were countless scrolls of pen and ink, and when they were flipped, countless words condensed with literary qi were revealed.

These words flashed and rolled in it, and the vortex of literary energy became more turbulent, and at the next moment, the clouds and rain disappeared in this world, but a huge virtual image condensed by dense white steam appeared.

It was a drooping old man, dressed in a long robe, holding a scroll in his hand, this time he was standing among the greenery of the world, but he suddenly stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, and slowly unrolled the scroll.

The next moment, the sound of reading suddenly came, and there were countless proverbs, which were spreading in this world at the moment, and every time he read a sentence, Jie Zezhu felt that his power was taken away.

At the same time, the world outside the foreign land has also changed.

In the sky of Kyushu, virtual images of statues are condensed. At this moment, these virtual images are like in that foreign land. After stroking his beard, he unfolded the scroll in his hand and began to read slowly.

A sentence of ancient sayings spread between the heaven and the earth, the common people looked up and were amazed, but the scholars were all stunned when they heard it, but they were stunned at this moment.

"Why do these sentences seem to come from the Four Books and Five Classics?"

"And these sentences sound different, this is..."

Among the various schools of poetry, the sage has already walked out of the hall, and the sky is turning towards the white clouds in the sky.

"This is a vision of advancement. Who has entered the realm of Confucianism?!"

"The Sanskrit sounds are all over the sky, and every sentence is actually my Confucian proverb. Quickly investigate, who did it?!"

On this day, the phantom in the sky lasted for several hours, and thousands of Sanskrit sounds kept falling, and the literati from all over the Wen Dynasty were shocked when they heard it.

On this day, it was spread everywhere in the Wen Dynasty that another great Confucian in the Wen Dynasty might appear in the world.
