The afternoon sun fell from the sky, the huge body rolled up the wind, and the sleeves of the cassock robes were rolled up in the air, which was like a vortex of wind, and in the sudden confrontation, there was a bang.
At this moment, the Buddha King in people's mouth withdrew his good intentions, such as King Kong's angry eyes, rushing forward, fierce killing intent and stern aura, it seems that it is enough to crush all enemies in front of him, especially those who practice martial arts all the year round. In his eyes, when he substituted himself into this breathtaking fist, it was enough to make people feel terrified. Not only fists and feet, but most of the people present are probably just touching Lin Zongwu's body, and they may be hit to pieces.
At this moment, the eight-armed dragon king opposite the martial arts field also showed a chilling appearance of a god of war. The calm "good" word was still echoing, and the two figures suddenly drew closer. In the center of the martial arts field, a heavy octagonal mixed-copper rod was raised in the sky.
Lin Zongwu's hands seemed to be grasping the entire land and smashed it.
When the bang sounded, the scalp was numb.
The terrifying power of the peak of martial arts, even most of the warriors present, had never seen it, and it was unimaginable even in the lifetime of martial arts. It was also at this moment that it appeared in front of them.
Weapons are no longer important in this level of confrontation. Lin Zongwu's body is leaping and leaping. The force between punching, kicking, and smashing seems to be extremely powerful. The mixed copper rods, who had killed countless people in the battle, did not show any signs of weakness. Every inch of his huge figure was originally a weapon. Facing the copper rod, he smashed and bullied him in the blink of an eye, and wanted to become close to Shi Jin. At the moment of contact, the two of them walked in circles, Shi Jin danced like thunder, and smashed his head in the swirl, and his offensive did not only rely on weapons. Once Lin Zongwu bullied him, he would use his elbow Against the fist, with the leg against the leg, facing Lin Zongwu's tremendous strength, he did not show weakness in the slightest.
The dust swirled, the stones on the ground cracked in the stampede, and splashed and flew out. Apart from the sound of fighting, the surroundings were suffocating for a while. If there were bystanders who had seen the battle of Luliangshan ten years ago, they might have found that Lin Zongwu's offensive at this time was like a big river, like a sea tide, surging and heavy. Incessantly.
The sleeves of his robe swelled with wind, and his body slammed into the air, one punch and one move to push the next punch and the next move, almost endless. In the martial arts above the rivers and lakes, there is the original martial arts of the three-folded waves of the Yangtze River, which imitate the natural martial arts. However, Lin Zongwu's martial arts have completely surpassed this concept. Ten years ago, Hongti understood the philosophy of Tai Chi and entered the martial arts. She used her strength to fight and unload her strength, dissolve herself into nature, and search for every flaw. Killing people in the battle formation, and when it comes to the competition, no matter how powerful Lin Zongwu is, he still can't really hit her with the power. And now, perhaps inspired by that battle, his power has gone in another direction that belongs to him.
Manipulate the power, control the power, accumulate and explode that huge power like a current. Like whirlpools and waves, and like a river with a dead bank, thousands of torrents are rushing down, facing the enemy in front of them, leaving no room for them to collide and press down. This is the greatest destruction after adapting to Tai Chi like water.
In the face of such power, although Shi Jin is often the one who retreats in the two rounds, no one thinks that he is at a disadvantage. The gun stick is originally one inch long and one inch strong. In the shift-like offensive, he steadily pulled the two of them apart at a fixed distance, the sticks and shadows fluttered, and he also attacked the enemy with the same attack that could crack the ground.
If Lin Zongwu's fists and feet are like the ocean, Shi Jin's attacks are like thousands of dragons. The carp was thousands of miles away, and turned into a dragon against the current. The giant dragon has an unyielding will. In his attack, the thousands of giant dragons rushed forward with their lives to smash the enemy, and they were like thousands of thunders, bombarding the vast ocean tide that overturned the mountains and seas, trying to The thousand-mile giant wave was smashed abruptly.
The martial arts of the two have entered the Dao, and they are both facing the road. Even though many of the thousands of people present were insufficiently cultivated, at this time, they could vaguely understand the arrogant will displayed in them.
Lin Zongwu said many years ago that he would challenge Zhou Tong, but until Zhou Tong killed himself, such a duel could not be realized. Later, in the battle of Lu Liangshan, there were not many audiences. In Lu Hongti's kendo, killing was only to save people. To be pragmatic, although Lin Zongwu fought hard from the front, he was always aggrieved in Lu Hongti's kendo. To this day, this kind of confrontation has appeared in front of thousands of people, which is exciting and magnificent. Lin Zongwu played smoothly, and suddenly opened his mouth and shouted. The sound was like the Vajra Sanskrit sound, thick and high-pitched, straight into the sky, and spread out in all directions of the martial arts field.
Everyone vaguely understood that this was a battle destined to be remembered in history. For a time, the brilliance of the sky seemed to be gathered here.
…
Ning Yi watched all this, tapped the railing with his fingers lightly, and spoke in a low voice, his tone seemed calm amid the heated fight in the distance. It's like being on the other side of the world.
“…How does one person live in the world, how does two people, one family, one village, or even tens of millions of people, how to live, what rules are determined, what laws are used, and what customs are followed, so that millions of people can live Taiping is longer. It is the most complex calculation. Since the beginning of mankind, calculations have been carried out continuously. Two thousand years ago, a hundred schools of thought contended, and Confucius' calculation was the most representative."
"Confucius pursued benevolence and propriety in his life. At that time, he did not receive much attention. In fact, from now on, what exactly did he pursue? I think he was very reasonable at first. How about repaying grievance with virtue? Repaying grievance with directness , repaying virtue with virtue. This is the basic saying of repaying good and evil. In the society at that time, people admired chivalry, repaid revenge, killed people to pay off debts, and justice was very simple. What later generations called repaying grievances with virtue was actually a village wish, but Xiangyuan is also a thief of virtue. However, just talking about his reasoning cannot explain his pursuit..."
"In the Analects of Confucius, there are stories of Zigong redeeming people and Zilu receiving cattle. There is a law in the state of Lu. If the people of the country see their compatriots become slaves outside and redeem them, they will be rewarded. Zigong redeems people, but no reward is given. Then he told Confucius that he was scolded by Confucius. Confucius said, this way, others will not go outside to redeem people. Zigong has actually harmed people. When Zilu saw someone drowning, the other party gave him an ox. , Zilu happily took it, and Confucius was very happy: the people of the country will definitely have the courage to save people in the future."
"In addition to this story, Confucius said, "Hide your relatives, your father committed a crime, and you have to hide it for him. Does this symbol conform to benevolence? It doesn't seem to conform, what should the victim do? Confucius said at that time. Filial piety, we think filial piety is the most important thing, but we might as well think back. At that time, the society was vast and sparsely populated, the country was loose, and people had to eat and live. What was the most important thing? In fact, it was the family. , let everything uphold justice, and the family will break up. To maintain the productivity at that time, it is the most pragmatic truth, and there are many stories and sayings in the "******** language" , around several cores, but they are not unified. But if we calm down and only need a unified core, we will find that what Confucius said is only to maintain the stability and development of the society at that time in essence. This, was the only core objective. At the time, none of his claims were unrealistic."
The sound of Ning Yi's beating on the railing was monotonous and gentle, and here, the words paused slightly.
"After the Spring and Autumn Period, the scope of the country expanded and gradually developed, and a country was no longer one city and one place. Although people took up the Analects to govern the world and directly reported their grievances, they gradually weakened. It is advocated that in the Tang Dynasty, the existence of the state was further strengthened, and the scope of concealment of relatives was also limited, and conspiracy and rebellion could not be concealed. We said, is it really reasonable to repay grievances with virtue? Wouldn’t it be blocked by everyone? However, in a real sense, the country is getting bigger and bigger. People from one place go to another place. You don’t know the person next to you. They say revenge. How can you verify it? If you complain directly, the social reaction may go too far and collapse in essence. Therefore, when the country has tens of millions of people, and officials and law enforcement cannot always be in place, weakening the temperament of the people has become an essentially long-term road.”
"Spring and Autumn and Warring States, Qin, Han, Jin and Tang Dynasties, as for today, two thousand years of development, the improvement of Confucianism from generation to generation, continuous revision, is it for the sake of propriety? Is it for the sake of benevolence? Virtue? Most benefits. However, when it comes to right and wrong, Chengye, do you think they are right or wrong?”
Fang Chengye frowned, but at this time he didn't know what to answer.
Ning Yi looked at the fighting on the martial arts field: "It's been two thousand years, hundreds of millions of people have lived and died, and any country has continued for only two hundred years. When it comes to right and wrong, inheritance, and the method of sages to discuss right and wrong is different from Xiangyuan. ."
He sighed slightly: "Everyone in the world is willing to believe in the judgment of right and wrong. When ordinary people face things and ask what is right and what is wrong, they believe that doing what is right will definitely be good. For example, how to farm, We plant the rice on the best days, and let the rest go to providence, simple and clear, right?"
Ning Yi smiled: "Two thousand years ago, Confucius and a group of people may have been ordinary people like us, discussing how to live, how to live, and how to live as well as possible. For two thousand years, people tinkered, and now the country can After more than 200 years, we can have the prosperity of the Wu Dynasty at the beginning. Has it reached the end? Our end is to let the country continue to continue for thousands of generations. We must find a way to make every generation happy. Based on this end, We are looking for a way for millions of people to get along, and we can only say that we have figured out a very narrow road, very narrow and very narrow, but it is not the answer. If we are right or wrong in terms of requirements, we are wrong.”
"Confucius didn't know what was right, he wasn't sure if he was right or not, but he thought over and over again, sought truth and was pragmatic, spoke out, and told others. Later generations tinkered, but who can say that he is absolutely right? No people, but they also carried it out after careful consideration. The sage is not benevolent and regards the common people as dogs. In this deliberation, they will not be lucky because of their kindness. He treats people's habits seriously and earnestly. Deduction... The opposite is like Shi Jin, his character is upright, he believes in brothers, he is loyal, he can trust his heart, and he can entrust his life to others. I admire and admire him, but Chifeng Mountain collapsed due to infighting."
"What's right, what's wrong, Chengye, when we ask this sentence, we are actually shirking our responsibility. It is difficult for people to face the world, it is very difficult to survive, and it is even more difficult to live a happy life. Something, you ask, is it right or wrong for me to do this, it depends on the outcome you want. But no one can answer you The world knows it will hit you in the head when you do it wrong, More often, people are right and wrong, you gain something and you lose something else.”
"People can only summarize the laws. Faced with a major event, we don't know whether our next step is right or wrong, but we know that it is wrong, it is very miserable, and we are afraid in our hearts. Since we are afraid, we repeatedly review the way we do things. , Repeatedly think about whether I have missed anything, whether I have added unrealistic expectations in the calculation process. This kind of fear will drive you to pay countless times more effort than others. In the end, you really try your best, To meet that result. This sense of fear makes you learn to face the world and learn to take real responsibility.”
"Imagine an ordinary person who runs a stall of business. He is very kind. It's fine to see everything around him is happy. He doesn't care if the three aunts and six grandmothers take money in it, nor does he care about his brother's selfishness under the table. One day the business collapsed, he Say, I'm just an ordinary person, is it wrong for me to be kind? Imagine that one day, this person will run a country... "
"Back to planting, someone planted rice today, waiting for the destiny to bring him a bumper harvest or famine. He knew that he couldn't control the weather, he tried his best, and he felt at ease. There were also people who planted rice, and he was very afraid of famine, so he dug canals. , build ponds, carefully analyze the weather every year, the law of disasters, and analyze what food disasters can survive, after thousands of years, maybe people will no longer have to fear natural disasters because of these fears.”
"We don't know what kind of behavior is right, but we know what kind of attitude is the most right. Confucius was right. He proposed the greatest goodness that could really work according to the conditions of life at that time. Sage It is right to be unkind, they are truth-seeking and pragmatic, and they will not propose kindness that cannot work. During the Anshi Rebellion in Tang Dynasty, there was a general Zhang Xun guarding Suiyang, and there was no food in the siege. He first killed his concubine to the soldiers to eat, and then let the soldiers eat The people in the city, defended to the end and died in battle, even he was right."
Ning Yi paused for a long time: "However, ordinary people can only see the right and wrong in front of them, this is because first of all it is impossible for the world to read, and if you want to teach them such complicated right and wrong, it is impossible to teach them, so it is better to make them violent. It is right to make them weak, but if we are faced with specific things, such as Zezhou people, when disaster is imminent, and scold Jurchen, Tian Hu, Hungry Ghost, Black Flag, and this troubled world, will it be of any use? ? You and I are sympathetic. Today, you and I are not going to the muddy waters. Is it possible for them to achieve happiness in essence?"
Ning Yi patted Fang Chengye on the shoulder: "In the next few years, the situation will become more and more difficult. If we do not participate, the Jurchen will truly go south, replace Daqi, and destroy Nanwu. The Mongols may go south. We will not participate. Without strengthening themselves, can they survive, not even in the future, is it possible to survive today? What is right? One day in the future, the world will be settled in a certain way, this is a narrow road, and the road must be full of blood For the good of the people of Zezhou, what is right, the scolding is definitely wrong, he picked up the knife, killed the Jurchen, killed the hungry ghost, killed the Daguang Sect and killed the black flag, and the world will be peaceful from now on. Wait. Can it be done?"
"War is a pair, and a lot of people will definitely die." Ning Yi said, "I killed the emperor many years ago because many people I felt identified with, awakened people, and great people died. Killing him is uncompromising. The beginning of this. Over the years, I have had more of these people around me, and every day, I am watching them die, can I have compassion? Chengye, you can't even let your emotions interfere with your judgment, you With every hesitation, wavering, and miscalculation, several more people will die."
"You can only look at it calmly and remind yourself repeatedly of the objective law of inhumanity in the world. He will not treat you with mercy because of your kindness. You should think over and over again, the future I want to achieve is the future where many, many people have died. , whether it is already the best. Whether after so many people have died, after an objective calculation without inclination, can it conform to the result of the inclination of animism... "
…
On the martial arts field, the heroic fighting continued, Lin Zongwu's sleeves were smashed by the whistling stick shadow, and blood oozes from his arms during the attack, dripping dripping. Shi Jin's shoulders, hands, and forehead were all injured, and he greeted him unmoved.
Ahead, the power of the "Buddha King" fists is still rising, which shocked Shi Jindu to become stronger and stronger!
"Shi Jin!" Lin Zongwu shouted, "Haha, I admit that you are the real master of martial arts, the number one master I have seen in the past ten years!"
The heroic voice of King Kong's angry Buddha reverberated over the martial arts field
…
"... Confucianism has been developed for two thousand years, and when it came to Qin Siyuan, he proposed a revision. It attracts people's desires and follows the principles of heaven. The principles of heaven here are actually laws, but people don't read books, so how can they be taught the principles of heaven? Their behavior, as long as they follow the class and abide by the rules more strictly layer by layer. This may be a last resort, but I'm not willing to go anymore... "
On the corridor, Ning Yi closed his eyes slightly.
…
Wasion in the heavy rain, the alarm bell sounded in the city, and the huge chaos was already spreading.
In the half-occupied palace, Tian Hu shouted with his sword, and said to the courtier outside who he had absolutely trusted outside: "Why is this, what conditions have been given to you?"
…
To the north of Tian Hu's site, the army of the righteous teacher Wang Juyun was pressing down on the territory.
…
Zezhou prison, two arresters slowly came over, still chatting about family affairs, fat arrester glanced at the prisoners in the cell, stopped on You Hongzhuo's body, after a while, he hummed softly, took out The key unlocked: "Humph, tomorrow is a good day, let the official say hello again today... Xiao Qin, what are you yelling over there! Watch them and don't cause trouble!"
"Okay." The young man named Xiao Qin replied. He had a bucket in his hand, but he put it down by the prison door over there. Then You Hongzhuo saw him turn around, keeping a casual pace, and headed here. came over.
He pulled out a triangular cone from his waist.
"Master is not in a good mood today..."
"Fat man."
"Huh? You..."
The young Chukuai snapped at his neck, inserted it with his hand, and then pulled it out. Blood spurted out. Fat Chukuai stood there, stunned for a moment.
In the dim light, the people in the nearby cell stared blankly at Fat Chakuai, who covered his neck, took two steps back, leaned against the pillar of the cell, and finally slid down. Incredible look.
"I'm sorry, I'm a good guy."
Xiao Qin said this, and then looked at the cell next to him.
"Huaxia Army is doing things, please cooperate, don't make noise for the time being..."
"…Thank you for your cooperation."
…
"... From a purely practical perspective, it may be possible to transform the ordinary people who can only accept simple right and wrong behaviors to basically accept the enlightenment of right and wrong logic..."
Ning Yi said this and opened his eyes.
“… The most basic requirement of this is actually a change in material conditions. When the study of physical examination develops substantially, everyone in the whole country has the opportunity to study, which is the first step. When the study of all people is realized, then What has come is the improvement of the elite cultural system. Since most of us cannot read in the past two thousand years, it is an unchangeable objective reality, so we have created a cultural system that only pursues high points and does not pursue popularization. , this is something that needs to be remodeled.”
He looked at Fang Chengye who was a little confused but excited, but his whole demeanor was slightly tired and confused.
"Imagine that one day, everyone in the world can read and write. They can express their voices on the affairs of this country, and can make their evaluations on what the country and officials do. Then they need to ensure that they are the first. Enough to understand the law of inhumaneness, they can understand what is long-term and what kindness can really achieve... This is the goal they must achieve, and the homework they must complete."
"We are facing a cliff and don't know if the next step is the right one, but we know that if we go wrong, we will fall, and if we say wrong, there will be consequences, so we try to be as objective as possible... Because of the fear of going wrong, Let's be serious, and in this seriousness we can find the really right attitude."
He looked ahead.
"Confucianism has taken two thousand years. If we can develop literacy and popularize reading, we may be able to complete enlightenment in hundreds of years... If you and I can lay the foundation for this life, it will be enough to comfort us."
The competition on the martial arts field is divided into winners and losers.
Ning Yi looked over there for a long time, sighed, reached into his arms, took out two copper plates, and threw them out from a distance.
"Reward."
At the moment he threw the copper plate, Lin Zongwu felt blessed and looked over here.
Rumbling explosions came from far away in the city.
"Ah... it's about time..."
Ning Yi turned around and left the crowd. At this moment, the grand chaos in Zezhou kicked off. (.)
