Journey to the West: The opening angrily denounced Li Shimin for welcoming the Buddha's bones!

Chapter 78 Great Harvest, The Realm of a Gentleman
This time the rewards are generous.

The first is cultivation, Kong Fan's cultivation has reached the level of a golden immortal.

In Journey to the West,

There are two systems of practice, one is Taiyi and the other is Daluo.

The original text once said:

Taiyi is not the main entrance, and Sanqing is called Daluo. "

Taiyixian is actually a kind of heresy, while Da Luo is the orthodox way.

It was introduced in Journey to the West that Taiyi Immortal is the name for all those who are not inherited from the Sanqing sect and become immortals.

The three stars of Fu Lu Shou despised monkeys as "Taiyi Sanshu" at the beginning, but they were actually saying: "You monkey is from a heretical sect, not the orthodox of the Sanqing, and not into the true stream."

The Great Luo Immortal, also known as the Da Luo Immortal, actually learned from the Sanqing sect, which means the orthodox Taoism.

For example, Zhu Bajie, in fact, belongs to the orthodox disciples of the Sanqing sect, and is the true biography of the eight classics.

As for why Sun Wukong is so strong?

That's because what he practiced was actually the Dao of Immortal Taiyi, but Sun Wukong practiced this Dao to the extreme and obtained the Dao Fruit.

And it is precisely because of this that he has dragged Zhu Bajie, a well-known decent family, for dozens of streets.

Zhu Bajie's current strength is only a glimpse of Hunyuan, while Monkey King has proved the Tao fruit, and he is even better at condensing the demon realm.

Therefore,
When he was in the dungeon, Zhu Bajie had no ability to resist after Monkey King unfolded the Huaguo Mountain Demon Realm.

And now,
Kong Fan's cultivation has reached the level of a golden immortal, which shows that Kong Fan's strength at this moment has almost entered the second-tier team of Journey to the West.

Although he is behind the second-tier team, it doesn't matter, Kong Fan still has a second reward.

That is the realm of gentlemen!

In the early pre-Qin period, the term gentleman was mainly discussed from a political point of view, giving orders and governing the country.

"The Book of Songs · Gu Fengzhi · Dadong": "What a gentleman does is what a villain looks at.

"Kong Yingda's "Book of Songs and Justice" said: "This is a gentleman and a villain, and the reign is opposite to the common people."A gentleman guides his way, and a villain serves him. "

Later the gentleman extended again.

"The way of a gentleman is three, the benevolent will not worry, the wise will not be confused, and the brave will not be afraid."

This is the most specific meaning of the word gentleman in terms of virtue, and it is also the gentleman in Confucius' ideal.

But in this world, Junzijing has more abilities about strength.

First, a gentleman does not act rashly, he must have a way:
"Book of Rites: Ziyi" said: "A gentleman and a man of Taoism use words, but they are forbidden to act. Therefore, words are concerned with their end, and actions are used to avoid their disadvantages. The people are cautious in words and cautious in deeds."

This is the first ability of the realm of the gentleman,
Rein in yourself.

After entering the realm of a gentleman, Kong Fan can control himself.

In this world, the only ones who tap their own strength are demons and some martial arts immortals.

Therefore, in terms of his own strength, Kong Fan was stronger than most immortals.

Second, a gentleman does not speak in vain, and his words must be reasonable.

A gentleman always keeps his mouth shut and keeps his mouth shut. What a gentleman says is meaningful and just.Therefore, a gentleman does not use words in vain; what he speaks must be reasonable.

And this is the second ability of Junzijing.

follow the law

In fact, this ability is inherent in Confucian practice, but that is more than relying on the words of sages or ancient poems.

But Kong Fan, who has now been promoted to the level of a gentleman, can say that as long as he says something, it will come true.

Even if he said to a donkey, this is a thousand-mile horse, the next moment, the donkey will become a real thousand-mile horse.

But now Kong Fan's ability is only to temporarily turn the donkey into a good horse for thousands of miles, and it will eventually return to its original shape later.

However, with the improvement of cultivation base,
Words follow the law, and the level that can be reached in the end will be to completely change the nature of matter.

Virtual transformations will become reality.

Third, a gentleman does not act in vain, and his actions must be righteous:
If he is a gentleman, his words and deeds will not be casual, and he will think twice about everything: Will this behavior hurt others?Will this matter harm others?Only when he thinks clearly will he take action. Therefore, the behavior of a gentleman must be in line with the righteous way.

And this is the third ability of the Realm of a Gentleman.

Match words with deeds

At this level, Kong Fan began to get in touch with the Dao of Heaven and Earth.

It's just that the avenue of heaven and earth that Kong Fan came into contact with is the avenue of Confucianism.

In this realm of a gentleman, every word and deed of Kong Fan will be in line with Confucianism.

Just like before,
Stealing other people's ginseng fruit in Wuzhuang Temple, Kong Fan did not enter the realm of a gentleman before.

It can still be explained by different factions.

But when you enter the realm of a gentleman, stealing is no longer acceptable.

Of course,
Next time, just tell the owner that you are taking it, and it will be fine.

As for whether the master agrees or not.

Kong Fan can seriously discuss with him.

Fourth: Tian Xingjian, the gentleman strives for self-improvement; "

This sentence comes from the Book of Changes, a gentleman should behave like the sky, strive for self-improvement, be resolute and persistent, strive for strength, and never stop; he should be like the earth, thick and gentle, thickening virtues, and containing all things.

This is the fourth ability of the gentleman's journey.

Strong soul
In Journey to the West, there are many spiritual treasures that can target people's spirits.

The fourth ability of the Realm of a Gentleman is to make up for Kong Fan's shortcomings in this aspect.

And with the continuous feedback of the gentleman's realm, in fact, Kong Fan's sea of ​​consciousness has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

In Kong Fan's sea of ​​consciousness.

The Confucian Temple where Kong Fan's soul was worshipped has undergone strange changes.

Numerous famous sayings about gentlemen are engraved on the walls of the Confucian Temple, and these famous sayings are turned into the most solid foundation stone, protecting the spirit of Kong Fan.

Not only that,

Even the statue of Kong Fan in the center of the Confucian Temple has undergone considerable changes.

Kong Fan's original clothes and clothes have now become the clothes of a gentleman.

Know etiquette, correct name

As his strength increased, the robe on Kong Fan's body became a toga with large sleeves.

There are four pieces of cloth on the upper part of the clothes, representing the four seasons of a year, and twelve pieces of cloth on the bottom, which means that there are December in a year.

In the middle of the back of the clothes, there is a line running through the seam from the beginning to the end, which is called the "middle seam", which represents integrity; the lower skirt is flush with the ground, representing balance.

Today, Kong Fan's sculpture stands in Kong Fan's Confucian Temple like a real gentleman.

And it's not just the Confucian Temple that has changed.The statues enshrined in the Confucian temples established in various human countries have also undergone drastic changes.

At this moment, the Confucian luck is inflated crazily.

And these lucks were fed back to Kong Fan, and for a while, the whole world shook.

If it weren't for Journey to the West, Liang Jie would not be able to interfere.

I am afraid that the gods and Buddhas, who have noticed these changes, can't wait to come here to take a peek.
