Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 438
On the last day of the discussion of politics by talented scholars, almost all the famous people in Handan City came.Today, Mr. Zou Yan is going to talk about Yin-Yang and Five Elements, and they all want to come and listen.

In the Warring States Period, not to mention ordinary people, even princes and nobles had very limited channels to obtain knowledge and information.People all welcome Zou Yan, a famous scholar like Zou Yan, to give lectures.

Qin Zhiyong sat at the bottom, even though he already had a deep understanding of the theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, he still listened carefully.

Learn the new by reviewing the past.

The knowledge that Mr. Zou Yan taught this time is more layered and in-depth.It can be said to point directly to the essence.

After Zou Yan finished speaking, it was Qin Zhiyong who spoke.

Many people started talking about it.

"What is he?"

"It is said that Qin Zhiyong's martial arts are extraordinary, but I haven't heard how his knowledge is?"

"Hey, don't forget. Qin Zhiyong is a student of Xunzi. I think his knowledge is pretty good."

Qin Zhiyong glanced at the people present with a smile on his face, many of them were familiar faces.

Xiang Shaolong, Lian Jin, Zhao Ping, and Cao Qiudao were also among them.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Master Zou asked Qin to talk about something. I won't talk about Confucianism today. What I want to talk about is the method of mind."

"What is the mental method?"

"Heart method is a way to ensure the harmony of the soul. Quietness and inaction, Zhongzheng and comfort are all descriptions of a certain state of mind. People have to do things when they are alive. How can we do things well? To achieve the ultimate? There are ways .First of all, we must look for it from the heart.”

Everyone can understand what Qin Zhiyong said.There is no such thing as mysterious.He began to explain the spiritual practice from the perspective of mentality, how to effectively improve the psychological quality.

How to focus, to achieve the real ability to never forget?
How to control emotions, make the mind pure, and achieve clarity?
There are various schools and schools of spiritual practice, but they have never been summed up so thoroughly like Qin Zhiyong.The higher the cultivation level, the more they can appreciate how broad and profound Qin Zhiyong's knowledge is.
Especially Cao Qiudao, Zhao Ping, Lian Jin, and Qin Qing, whose auras are gradually beginning to change.

This shows that their mentality is changing.

Qin Zhiyong was surprised that they got into the mood so quickly.

amazing.

Xiang Shaolong is from the 21st century, he has more knowledge, but his thoughts are more complicated.It is not easy for him to enter the state.

After Qin Zhiyong finished speaking, he said: "What I said is the 'truth' of my own comprehension, without any prejudice, and it is not to promote any academic thought. I hope everyone can learn something."

Talented scholars discussing politics is Mr. Zou Yan's home field, and it is also the home field of Yin-Yang and Five Elements Theory.

It is inappropriate for Qin Zhiyong to promote Confucianism here.Because that would be counterproductive.

Zou Yan said: "Little friend Qin is good. You are no longer limited to the theories of a certain school or school. You have created your own way."

Qin Zhiyong was taken aback, his own "Tao"?

not at all.

Qin Zhiyong is still strictly following the Confucian standards for cultivating the mind, and has been unable to find a breakthrough point.

Both Xunzi and Zou Yan's spiritual realm has reached the realm of "safety". Even if Qin Zhiyong is indifferent, he still feels a little envious in his heart.

But this kind of thing is really enviable.

In the knowledge of Xunzi and Zou Yan, there are their own propositions and "Tao".If Qin Zhiyong wants to make a breakthrough, he must innovate and blaze his own path.

With Qin Zhiyong's background, it's time to innovate.

Otherwise, the knowledge of the Confucian school will always constrain Qin Zhiyong's thinking and restrict his pattern.

After understanding this point, Qin Zhiyong's spiritual "shackles" seemed to disappear all of a sudden.

Self-denial is self-discipline.

But self-discipline alone is not enough, freedom is also needed.Especially freedom of thought.

Self-discipline and freedom must be in balance.

"Get out of your own way."

Qin Zhiyong said: "I understand. Thank you, Master Zou, for your reminder."

Immediately, Qin Zhiyong's qi and blood became more vigorous, and his breath seemed to become younger.

It is born by heart.

What Qin Zhiyong seeks is the true meaning of life, which is immortality.

In the past, Qin Zhiyong looked young, but his temperament was too stable.It's not that prudence is bad, but that it's not harmonious.

But now his appearance and temperament are harmonious, and he has really become a young man in his prime.

Even with Zou Yan's mental state, he couldn't tell Qin Zhiyong's real age.

Zou Yan stroked his breath and nodded with a smile on his face.

…………

Before it is too bright, it is the darkest moment, the most sleepy time for people.It was at this time that Qin Zhiyong took Zhu Ji and Zhao Pan out of Handan City.

Qin Zhiyong wanted to leave the city, let alone a small Handan city, no matter how tall and majestic the city wall was, it couldn't stop him.

Holding Zhu Ji in one hand and Zhao Pan in the other, Qin Zhiyong used his body skills to cross the city wall and landed slowly outside the city.

Zhao Pan was shocked and said, "Teacher, you can really fly. It's amazing."

Qin Zhiyong said: "It's body skills, not real flying. If you study hard, you can do it in the future. Let's go ten miles ahead and wait for Mr. Zou Yan."

Qin Zhiyong didn't perform imperial flying, but only used lightness kung fu.But this is enough to subvert the three views of Zhao Pan and Zhu Ji.

…………

morning.

Zou Yan left Handan City with Qin Qing and other disciples.

When leaving the city, the carriage was strictly checked.

It's not aimed at Zou Yan and Qin Qing, but any horse-drawn cart that goes out of the city will be subject to strict investigation.

Zhao Mu has not given up on tracing Zhu Ji's whereabouts.

There were no Tibetans in Zou Yan's three carriages at all, and they were not afraid of being searched.

The city gate officer said to Zou Yan: "It's all right. You can go."

Zou Yan and Qin Qing got into the carriage and continued on the road.

Qin Qing said: "Teacher, I didn't expect the investigation to be so strict. If we bring Zhu Ji and Wang Zizheng with us, we really can't leave Handan City."

Zou Yan said with a smile: "Little friend Qin has thought about these things a long time ago. He has already brought Zhu Ji and Wang Zizheng to wait in front."

Walking to the side of the road ten miles away from Handan City, Zou Yan and Qin Qing saw Qin Zhiyong and the three of them.

Zhao Pan knew that he was about to say goodbye to his teacher.In the future, I don't know when I will be able to return to Handan City.

Zhao Pan said: "Teacher, you must come to Xianyang as soon as possible."

Qin Zhiyong patted Zhao Pan on the shoulder and said, "When you, Senior Sister Shanrou, can stand on your own, I will come to Qin State to find you. When you arrive in Xianyang, Qin State, Prime Minister Lu will give you enough support. Xiang Shaolong came back from Wei State , will rush to Qin.”

Qin Zhiyong sent Zhu Ji and Zhao Pan to the carriage: "Madam, take care all the way."

Zhu Ji said: "Zheng'er and I are waiting for Mr. Qin's arrival in Qin State."

Qin Qing said: "Brother Qin, we will meet later."

Qin Zhiyong clasped his fists and said, "There will be a time later."

…………

Zhao Mu and Lian Jin came to see Qin Zhiyong again.

However, Qin Zhiyong was not in the courtyard.

Zhao Mu immediately found someone who was monitoring Qin Zhiyong and asked when Qin Zhiyong left.The watchers all shook their heads, but they didn't see Qin Zhiyong leave the small courtyard.

Sudden.

Zhao Mu's expression changed, and he said, "Qin Zhiyong is not here... Lian Jin, Zou Yan, have you left Handan City?"

Lian Jin nodded and said, "Yes."

Zhao Mu sternly said: "Lian Jin, you take twenty people with you, leave the city immediately, and bring Zou Yan back to Ben Hou. If Ben Hou guessed correctly, Zhu Ji must have been taken away by Zou Yan."

Lian Jin was puzzled and said: "But Zou Yan's carriage was searched when it left the city, so it is impossible to hide someone."

Zhao Mu said coldly: "Don't forget that Zhu Ji disappeared in the Proton Mansion without a sound."

Lian Jin said: "This subordinate will go after Zou Yan."

Lian Jin brought twenty sword masters, rode on horses, and chased Zou Yan out of the city.
