Chapter 240 239. Mohist secrets
Ji Ruyu still looked out of tune, swaying left and right with the white horse led by Mu Yu, and occasionally raised her head to drink water.If he didn't know in advance that it was spring water, seeing how he was enjoying it, he might have thought that the water bag would be wine.

Ji Ruyu, who left Qi State and Little Sage Village, finally convinced her two senior brothers.After all, you can only rely on yourself to enter the Tao. The young eagle will always spread its wings and fly tomorrow.Le Zhengzi and Xun Kuang could not ruin Ji Ruyu's future just because of their worries.

Even though they promised Ji Ruyu to leave and travel around the world, Le Zhengzi and Xun Kuang still made an agreement with him for three chapters.And also gave him a lot of good things, and even revealed all the connections between the two of them.

Mu Yu, who was leading the horse in front of Ji Ruyu, frowned and said, "The young master is the fourth Mr. Xiaoshengxianzhuang after all. You are so free and easy now, and you are not in the right shape. If you are caught by Mr. Le and When Master Xun sees this, he won’t criticize you for being such a bastard.”

"Ouch—"

As soon as Mu Yu finished speaking, she suffered a brain breakdown.With the method of condensing Haoran Qi, even though Mu Yu is physically strong, she still feels waves of pain.

Even Ji Ruyu didn't expect that Mu Yu, who studied Confucianism with Senior Brother Xun Kuang, would now dare to confront herself, and even said with the emphasis of "I am doing it for your own good": "Lead the horse well, how can you be like this?" Talk a lot. Your young master doesn’t call this a dissolute act, but he calls it free and easy. What do you know!”

Seeing that the young master did not listen to her advice, Mu Yu did not persist, but asked out of curiosity: "We are leaving Qi State soon, young master, where are we going?"

"Have you ever seen the government city rising in the east and setting at sunset?"

"Or have you ever seen Taiyi Mountain where the Great Xian is buried?"

"Does Mu Yu know what the Four Heroes of the Warring States Period are like? Or does she know what the invincible God of War is?"

Although Mu Yu is not a scholar of Baijia, he can serve as Ji Ruyu's bodyguard.Regardless of talent or talent, they are all first-rate beings in the world. You can know your destination just by reading a few keywords from the young master.

Mu Yu said: "Mohist, Taoist, Qin State and peasant family?"

"Ugh--"

Hearing the young master's sigh of regret, Mu Yu asked with some doubts: "Master, is Mu Yu not right?"

Ji Ruyu raised her eyebrows and said: "You are right, but not entirely. The Mohist family you are talking about is actually just Yanmo, not the real Mohist. The Mohist family was so magnificent back then, even if it was later divided into three parts. , Zhao Mo and Qin Mo, the Mo family can still be regarded as one of the most powerful existences among hundreds of scholars."

Mu Yu scratched her head in confusion and said, "Master, can you tell Mu Yu the story of the Mo family?"

"After the death of the Mohist sage Mozi, the Mohists were divided into three groups because of their different development concepts. Yan Mo inherited Mozi's chivalrous spirit, but they knew it but didn't know why. They didn't understand Mozi very well, the great chivalrous person. , the spirit of serving the country and the people.”

"Ten years ago, because of Bai Qi, all Zhao Mo who served the people of Zhao State were killed by General Bai Qi. Because of the loss of elites and Mohist classics, Zhao Mo is now just a useless mob who has become a pure assassin organization. Get riches!"

"Qin Mo is the most traditional and the purest school of thought. He concentrates on studying Mo Zi's academic and institutional skills of non-public and universal love, but he is more like a true Mohist."

The more Mu Yu listened, the more doubtful she became, and she couldn't help but say, "Then the Mohist school now is not exactly the same as the Confucian school in the past!"

Snapped--

Ji Ruyu slammed his head hard, ignoring Mu Yu's resentful eyes when he turned around, and then said with deep eyes: "This is different. After the death of Patriarch Kongqiu, although Confucianism was in chaos, it misinterpreted the true meaning of Confucianism, which led to chaos in Confucianism." And the rituals and music collapsed. But the civil strife in Confucianism is only an academic issue, the key lies in the dominant position of the inheritance of Xiaoshengxianzhuang."

"You must know that although Confucianism attaches great importance to etiquette and filial piety, it respects the thoughts of Patriarch Confucius and the inheritance of Confucianism. Even the descendants of Patriarch Confucius are not qualified to occupy Xiaoshengxian Manor. It is different from the fighting of life and death in the Mohist civil strife. Even though Confucianism was full of internal strife, no human life was involved in the end."

"How can Mohism's power struggle be the same as Confucianism's academic struggle!"

Only then did Mu Yu understand why his young master was angry just now, and for a moment he felt that he was not unjust for his brain-shattering. Then he asked with some curiosity: "Young master, there were 72 sages in Confucianism at that time. How about the various scholars at that time?" Which of the Zibai families can compete, and how did Confucianism end the civil strife in the end?"

"hey-hey--"

Hearing Mu Yu's question, Ji Ruyu sneered, and finally shook her head under Mu Yu's doubtful eyes and explained: "Yes! Confucianism at that time was indeed very strong, including Confucius's Ten Philosophers and the 72 Sages. But Confucianism is not invincible, and Mu Yu is not. Forget about Taoism among the hundreds of schools of thought, even Confucius once wanted to ask Lao Tzu for sages."

"Ten years after the Confucian civil war, a Taoist sage emerged, who single-handedly defeated hundreds of schools of thought at that time. With his swordsmanship, Bai Ming Youyu convinced hundreds of schools of thought, and even the 72 Sages were willing to be defeated. In the end The teacher mastered the fragments of the Analects, and then he set out to reorganize the essence of Confucianism and establish the eternal foundation of Confucianism today."

"Because I owe Taoism's favor, so the teacher rebuilt the list of Confucian sages, and listed the Taoist Liezi and Zhuangzi sages as my Confucian ancestors who worship incense!"

"So since then, Confucianism and Taoism have always been on good terms, a silent alliance that helps each other."

While holding the white horse, Mu Yu thought doubtfully in her heart, and then her eyes lit up and she said: "There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty. Could it be that the founder of Taoism, the sage Zhuangzi who is so talented and beautiful, and is known as a half-step saint!"

"Haha——, your reaction is very fast!" He smiled and patted Mu Yu on the head. In fact, he said he was a guard for safety, but in fact Mu Yu was more like Ji Ruyu's younger brother.

If there is not enough friendship, with Ji Ruyu's arrogant temperament.How could he answer other people's questions so easily.

"Taoism and Confucianism are both academic schools, even if their thoughts and realms are different. But among the hundreds of schools of thought, apart from the Immortal School, Taoism's favorite contact is always the small sage village that it does not compete with, not the entire huge Confucian school! "Just after Ji Ruyu finished speaking, she heard a voice coming from far away.

This man is already in his forties. Not only has he grown a beard, but he is also wearing Taoist robes.Holding a simple long sword in his arms, his eyes were closed as if he were blind, but his figure flickered every time he stepped down, disappearing like a ghost and reappearing in an instant.

Seeing such miraculous movements, Mu Yu grabbed Ji Ruyu's clothes and said, "Master, who is this?"

Holding back the anger that hit her head, Ji Ruyu could only sigh secretly in her heart.The Taoist doctrine of the unity of heaven and man does indeed have some strange mysteries of immortals and demons.If it were ordinary people, there would be no "underpants" left who could really deceive people without knowing what was going on.

"Being with the Light and the Dust, Taoism's secret secret skill. It was created by the sages of Liezi back then, and what they pursue is to be as calm as water, and to be in the same dust as the light!"

Ji Ruyu removed Mu Yu's hand that held her clothes, ignored his extremely embarrassing behavior just now and said: "Senior brother Chisongzi, you are fine!"

Taoism split into Tianzong and Renzong 300 years ago. The current head of Tianzong, Bei Mingzi, is old, and Chisongzi is about to take over the leadership.Ji Ruyu, who had heard news about Taoism for a long time, speculated that this was probably Chi Songzi's last worldly travel before taking office.

Compared with the Taoists who are detached from the mortal world, the Tianzong asked himself about Huangting and understood the essence of the great road of heaven and earth, which is indeed a bit ethereal.Therefore, Tianzong has always said what he says directly, and what he is worst at is beating around the bush.

At that time, Chi Songzi first mastered swordsmanship. In order to understand a higher realm, he once traveled around the world with a sword.I once met Ji Ruyu, who was only five years old, in the palace of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and told him with a smile.

If he is willing, he can lead a master and accept a disciple, as long as Ji Ruyu is willing to join the Taoist Tianzong.Unexpectedly, after so many years, the two met again after a huge change.

Chisongzi casually inserted the sacred object regarded as the relic of the ancestor by Taoists on the belt behind his back. He raised his hand with the extremely pure Xinruo Zhishui Zhenqi. He helped Ji Ruyu, who was holding her hands in salute, and said: "We have not seen each other for many years. , you are fine, I will be fine!"

"Master Beiming knows that you are going to Taiyi Mountain. He is very happy and specially asked me to come and welcome you!"

Ji Ruyu stroked her forehead speechlessly, and complained in a decadent tone: "It must be Senior Brother Xun Kuang's idea. Senior Brother Le Zhengzi acts upright and serious. Even if he is worried, he will never act like this. This clearly treats me as a weakling." Are you a chicken?"

"Haha——" Hearing Ji Ruyu's somewhat "resentful" voice, Chi Songzi laughed happily: "Geniuses have to grow up to amaze the world. It's not unreasonable for them to be so worried about you. The world is staring at you now. There are a lot of eyes on you, you have the fortune of the Zhou Dynasty for 800 years, and you have the foundation to eventually become a sage."

"hey-hey!"

Ji Ruyu touched her head in embarrassment, and said with a sarcastic smile: "Senior Brother Chisongzi said this, Ruyu also felt that she was quite important. If you hadn't given orders for me back then, I might still have been arrested. The eldest brother and San Ge are plotting to kill her, after all, my mother-in-law is just a common concubine with a humble status."

Chisongzi smiled and said: "People are like stars in the sky. Even if they are covered by dark clouds and have no brightness, they will eventually shine brightly. What's yours is yours. If it's not yours, no one else can take it away no matter how hard it is. Walk."

"Junior Brother Ji Ruyu, look at the sword!"

Chi Songzi and Ji Ruyu are the same generation. Because of the close relationship between Confucianism and Taoism, it is natural for the two to call each other senior brothers.Just to avoid unnecessary trouble, I will only address you by your full name.

The blade of Xue Ji's sword is slender, and its shape resembles the iron fiber in the hands of a temple messenger.In fact, the two are completely different concepts. Just ask how a lifeless and dead thing like Tie Xian can compare with the Xue Ji Divine Sword, which is full of life and contains the true meaning of Taoism.

The moment the Xueji sword thrust out, it felt as if the energy between heaven and earth had suddenly stopped circulating.The mind method of "Xinruo Zhishui" can not only stop the heart, but also stop the qi movement between heaven and earth.

What Tianzong is best at is quietly comprehending the great ways of heaven and earth. As the most meditative method of calming the mind, it has become a compulsory lesson for Tianzong disciples.As a leader in practicing this mental method, Chisongzi has long been able to achieve the highest state of being moved but not moved.
