Conferred God List Against Heaven and Become Holy

Chapter 275 Emperor Xinmou, On Tao Laojun
Zhang Dixin thought about it, and then said: "Fellow Taoist Xuandu, the poor Taoist has long admired the name of the sage of the Bajing Palace, and has been watching the Tao for a long time. I have a trouble in my heart, and I hope that the Taoist friend will come to solve it."

If Zhang Dixin wanted to meet the Supreme Lord, he had to arouse the interest of Master Xuandu, so that he could get involved and attract the attention of the sages. Although this is a diplomatic skill, it is something that people have to learn.

Seeing that Master Xuandu didn't speak or shake his head, Zhang Dixin acquiesced in being this person, so he said: "Please ask me, what is 'Tao'?"

Master Xuandu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Tao can be the Tao, but it is not the eternal Tao. Names can be named, but not eternal names. The nameless is the beginning of all things; the name is the mother of all things. Therefore, there is no desire for eternity." Also, to observe its essence; to persevere in desire, to observe its entanglement. The two originate from the same thing, with different names and the same name. Mystery is also mystic, the gate of all the shackles."

What Master Xuandu said is exactly the standard answer in Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" of later generations. Zhang Dixin nodded when he heard it, but Master Xuandu asked: "Friends of Taoism want to be poor, how can you know the way?"

Zhang Dixin was overjoyed, and hurriedly said the words he had prepared in secret: "Dao Chong, and there is a lot of money to use it. Yuan! It's like the ancestor of all things. File it, solve it, and other things. Light, like its dust. Bright! Seems to exist.”

This is also the words in Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching. Using Lao Tzu's words, when I asked Lao Tzu's questions, the answers should be seamless, and the master of Xuandu nodded when he heard it. Zhang Dixin said again: "Dare to ask friends, Where will the world go?"

Master Xuandu was startled when he heard that, and opened the corners of his eyebrows. He looked at Emperor Zhang Xin for a long time, and then slowly said: "If you don't honor the virtuous, the people will not fight; if you don't value rare things, the people will not be stolen; Desire keeps the people from chaos. It is the rule of the sage, emptying their hearts, filling their stomachs, weakening their wills, strengthening their bones, and constantly making the people ignorant and without desires. To make the husband know what he dares and not to do, then Everything is cured."

Govern by doing nothing, if you really rule by doing nothing, if you obey the will of heaven, the Yin Shang may die early. Zhang Dixin shook his head and said: "The world is not benevolent, and everything is like a dog; the sage is not benevolent, and the people are like dogs. Between heaven and earth , Is it still like a stick? It is empty but not bent, and it moves but emerges."

Master Xuandu was taken aback by Zhang Dixin's question, frowned secretly, and finally said after a long time: "The sky is long, and the earth is long. The reason why the sky and the earth can last long is that they can't live on their own, so they can live forever. The saint After the body, the body is the first, and the body is outside the body.”

The world lasts forever, and only oneself lasts forever. Such obedience to fate is not what Zhang Dixin thought, so he raised his eyebrows and said: "Believe in words is not beautiful, and good words are not believed. Good people don't argue, and those who argue are not good. Those who know don't." Bo, who doesn’t know what to do, what about a sage?”

Grand Master Xuandu was asked a lot by Zhang Dixin. Hearing this, he was very busy and said: "A sage does not accumulate. He thinks that others will have more, and that he will give others more. The way of heaven is beneficial. Do no harm. The way of a sage is to fight for nothing.”

Hearing this, Zhang Dixin was overjoyed, so busy he knelt down and bowed down, saluting: "The way of a sage is to fight for nothing. I am a poor man, Guiguzi, and pay homage to the sage. May the sage in Bajing Palace live forever!"

Although Master Xuandu is a disciple of the Supreme Lord, but the question here is only coming back, but it is like the original text, according to the scriptures. This is not like the later generations, but there are documents handed down from generation to generation. How can one person remember the words of the saints word for word? To be able to talk so eloquently, without the presence of a saint, no one else!
Zhang Dixin was thinking about this, so he secretly used his selfish intentions to find the saint. As expected, what Master Xuandu said was exactly the words of the saint!

Seeing that Zhang Dixin found out his identity, Taishang Laojun was not ashamed or annoyed, but he smiled at the side: "Fellow Daoist said with a smile, how can you kneel down and call him a saint instead?"

Zhang Dixin didn't want to find the Zhunti saint, but instead found the Taishang Laojun. He raised his eyebrows and said, "If fellow Taoist is not a saint, how can you speak the words of a saint?"
"This..." Taishang Laojun smiled, and rolled up his white beard in his hands, "Fellow Daoist is very similar to me, why not go to the Bajing Palace, you and I will join this Dao, it is really a pity, gratifying, praiseworthy! "

Hearing Taishang Laojun's words, Zhang Dixin knew that he had admitted his identity: "Poverty Daoist is happy to be at ease, he is really like a wild crane in the clouds, not restricted by form, not condensed in the world."

Taishang Laojun smiled when he heard this: "If this is the case, fellow Taoist, why bother to ask about the way of governing the world? Why don't you follow me, rank with Xuandu in the same seniority, and enjoy the supreme way."

Zhang Dixin's heart trembled when he heard this, he didn't want Taishang Laojun to see through his identity like this, secretly said, I know my identity, whether in private... In the future, I'm afraid it will be troublesome in the future.

Seeing Zhang Dixin's troubled expression, Taishang Laojun smiled and said: "God knows this matter, you know it, I know it, and there will never be three people who know it. You can act with confidence."

Hearing this, Zhang Dixin breathed a sigh of relief, but the temptation to be ranked in the same rank as Xuandu is not insignificant. The Great Master Xuandu is the only disciple of Renjiao, just like Taoist Ran Deng, he is the leader level Such a powerful figure, no less than the three masters in the West and China.

If it was Zhang Dixin, he would have agreed directly without even thinking about it, but now Zhang Dixin shook his head when he heard it: "The position is so important, the poor don't dare to covet it, so I have to learn a little bit, and get a better understanding. That’s why I dare to go to the Bajing Palace to pay homage to fellow Taoists.”

Zhang Dixin couldn't kill him with a single sentence, so he had to say it tactfully, to save some opportunities for the future. After hearing this, the Taishang Laojun couldn't blame him, so he said: "When fellow Taoist came, Xuandu You must wait quietly at the palace gate."

Hearing this, Zhang Dixin was so busy that Jishou thanked him, and said: "What the sage said is indisputable, but is it true?"

Taishang Laojun hesitated for a moment, then nodded, Zhang Dixin hurriedly said: "If there is a war among the saints in the future, fellow Taoists should help the weak side?"

"This..." Taishang Laojun raised his eyebrows, secretly thought that if he made this statement, he was afraid that he would be restricted everywhere in the future, so he said, "Sages are not stained with mortals, how can there be a war?"

Zhang Dixin knew Taishang Laojun wanted to shirk, so he said, "Nothing is better, poor people are not talented, I just hope that fellow Taoists will make this promise!"

"This..." It's a lot of words, not to mention the words of a sage. Since the Taishang Laojun said "I will not fight for it", I can't break my word. After thinking for a while, I just took out a wooden token in my hand, "See this card, poor Tao I will obey your words and deeds three times."

Zhang Dixin was overjoyed when he heard it, he thought it was good to be able to do this, he was so busy that he got up to pick up the order, but he didn't want Taishang Laojun to smile slightly: "You don't want to talk poorly about your status, so let's go once .”

Taishi Laojun said, with a finger point, there was a black line on the wooden ring, Zhang Dixin was very anxious, thinking that this old man is really cunning, how can he be so stingy!

Although Zhang Dixin scolded on his face, he didn't dare to show it, so he had to respectfully accept Mu Ling: "Guiguzi, thank you, Master Saint!"
