Xia Yingchen, Huan Yuanqiu, An Duming, Jia Quting, etc. knew nothing about Confucianism. Just now, they heard that Mr. Xi spoke clearly and thought that his writing was excellent. Now, under Liu Sang's criticism, he His face was flushed, he was powerless to argue, even if he argued forcefully, it was nothing but stubbornness, he couldn't even justify himself, and thought to himself that this person was an embroidered pillow.

After Liu Sang finished the criticism, he was not satisfied, so he translated the sentence "Thirty years old" and explained it. These few sentences have been discussed for more than 2000 years in his last life, and the meaning can be known by searching online .

When everyone heard it, it was indeed much more reliable than the "50-year-old success, 60-year-old success, [-]-year-old glimpse of the way of heaven, [-]-year-old sword in hand, I have the world" and so on.

Xiaozhu and Xiaohuang stood behind Xia Yingchen and Liu Sang respectively, Xiaozhu thought happily, so the master is so powerful?Xiaohuang also looked at Liu Sang with wide eyes, as if she only knew him until now.

Even Xia Yingchen was secretly surprised. Although he knew that he often reads literature and scriptures in Lingyuan Pavilion these days, he often got inside and never came out, especially since Momei arrived at the Hou's Mansion, but he did not expect his knowledge Has come to such a point?

Young Master Xi originally wanted to show off, but he didn't expect that not only failed, but made a fool of himself in public, especially with the presence of three beauties, Xia Yingchen, Hu Cuier, and Hu Yuetiantian, he felt even more ashamed. He called himself a celebrity, but Liu Sang is just a boy from the countryside, how can he afford to lose his face?

Can't help but get up, and said coldly: "It's all nonsense, my young master is really, what are you arguing with a cripple here." He just left in a rage.

Liu Sang spread her hands... As expected, she was full and full. Look, just like some people in the online forum in the last life, dead ducks are stubborn, and they just deny it when they lose.

Although Gong Zixi left in a huff, the others are also intelligent people. Although they don't know much about Confucianism, they have already seen who wins and who loses. I only feel that Gong Zixi has no grace, especially the last sentence. It shouldn't be said about his temperament, but although Liu Sang came from a low background, he is quite impressive.

Heng Yuanqiu winked at Jia Quting and asked him to appease Young Master Xi, after all Young Master Xi came from the royal family of Zhongyan and was a distinguished guest.Others continued to drink and chat, and Liu Sang, who was not very noticeable before, was toasted more often.

After drinking for three rounds, Heng Yuan begged: "Although Gong Zixi has shortcomings, Confucianism was one of the two most prominent schools in the pre-Qin period. Before the first emperor unified the six kingdoms, it reached its peak. Many Mohists abandoned ink. Learn Confucianism. Now they rebuild Confucian characters, or it may be possible to regain the glory of the past."

Lou Xuanguan shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, the scriptures are incomplete. Although they are united for the time being, over time, they will eventually lead to different views, factions and disputes. I think it is like this in my Taoist school. However, there are also followers like clouds. In the late pre-Qin period, there was a faint tendency to surpass Mohism, and Confucianism was called the two major schools of thought. After the collapse of the Great Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor burned books, destroyed Confucianism, destroyed the law and destroyed Taoism, and even a copy of the "Tao Te Ching" "It's hard to find all of them. Although we collected all kinds of fragments and reconstructed the Taoist sect, due to the messy scriptures and missing sentences in the fragmented chapters, everyone's interpretation was different, and the difference was huge. In the end, it split into seven sects. The prosperity is far away.”

Liu Sang's heart moved, he stopped his wine glass, and looked up in surprise: "Hasn't the "Tao Te Ching" been handed down?"

Lou Xuanguan sighed: "The "Tao De Jing" is the treasure of my Taoism. It is divided into 37 chapters of Taoism and 44 chapters of Dejing, with a total of [-] words. Could it be that my Taoist classics were developed based on this classic But now there are only a thousand words handed down, and the seven sects of my Taoism can only interpret around this thousand words, and many scriptures handed down in the pre-Qin period, there are many places that people cannot understand."

Hearing the words "Tao Te Ching", Liu Sang seemed to be touched in his mind.He said: "Brother Lou, I was cutting firewood in the mountains when I was young. I once met an old man with long beard. He was not sure how old he was. He sat by the stream and watched fish and shrimps playing. He didn't move for years. I wondered if I could be a god? So I often brushed off the fallen leaves and dust for him. One day, the old man suddenly moved and asked me if I want to learn to read from him? Since then, I have read and read with him, and later, He passed on a [-]-word scripture to me, but it’s nowhere to be found.”

Hu Cui'er blinked: "You said that the old man sat by the stream for more than a year, neither eating nor drinking, and not moving. Didn't he starve to death?"

Lou Xuanguan said: "My Taoist school has a method of suffocating and breathing bigu. Could it be that the old man is from my Taoist school? But if he can live without bigu for many years, he is probably already an immortal. I don't know the scriptures with five thousand words , Brother Liu, do you still remember?"

Liu Sang said: "Of course I remember." He asked someone to fetch a pen and ink, sat there, and wrote it with a brush.

The content of more than 5000 words naturally needs to be written in several pages.After Liu Sang finished writing a piece, Xiaozhu held it in front of Lou Xuanguan, and Lou Xuanguan took it, and saw the words "Tao can be said, very Tao. Name can be named, very famous. Nothing, name of the beginning of heaven and earth, yes, The mother of all things..." I couldn't help being moved immediately.

When Liu Sang wrote more and more, Lou Xuanguan looked at each one, his hands trembling, and his face was full of surprise.

Although the Taoist scriptures were seriously lost like other schools, but only from the incomplete 1000 characters and some scripture explanations, he could see that the ones in his hand were the complete "Tao Te Ching".

In fact, in Liu Sang's last life, although the "Tao Te Ching" was called "the treasure of Chinese culture" and "a peerless work that condenses the wisdom of China", after all, there were more than [-] words, and Liu Sang never read it carefully. However, not to mention reciting, except for the well-known sentence "Tao can be said, it is very Tao; name can be named, but it is very famous", I can't memorize any other sentence.

But as soon as Lou Xuan Guanfang mentioned the Tao Te Ching, for some reason, the whole article came to his mind without missing a word, and he immediately woke up. Those words and sentences in his dream in the evening were all It is from the Tao Te Ching.

——Being virtuous is not virtuous, because there is virtuousness;

——Superior virtue is inaction but inaction; lower virtue is inaction but inaction.

Liu Sang wrote the entire "Tao Te Ching" and handed it to Lou Xuanguan, who read it word by word, and his joy could not be increased, until he read the sentence "The way of heaven, what is more than what is damaged, is what is not enough to be made up for. The way of human beings is not the case, the loss is not enough to give more than enough." At that time, a certain incomprehensible secret in my heart suddenly became clear, and my understanding of the realm of martial arts directly entered the next level.
