The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 2285 My heart is self-evident

"Whose voice is this?"

Fang Yun asked, but after finishing the question, he suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Of course it is the original text of "The Analects". Zilu asked Confucius how to treat ghosts and gods. Confucius asked back, he failed to treat even human beings properly and failed to practice the most basic benevolence, righteousness and morality. Why should we consider treating ghosts and gods who are further away from people? Zilu asked Confucius what happened after death, and Confucius said this: "If you don't know life, how can you know death?"

While we are still alive, we still don’t understand many truths that are closely related to ourselves and life. Why is there any need to explore the truth after death?

People take the path of life, not the path of death.

"Then, why do I think about death?" Fang Yun asked himself in his heart.

"Oh, it turns out I was worried about the bile breaking."

"Then why am I worried about the bile breaking?"

"Because the literary courage is gathering dust."

"Why does my literary courage become more dusty?"

"Because I lost myself, I couldn't tell what I had done wrong or what crime I had committed."

"So, when did literary courage begin to fall into dust?"

"When you're worried about being distracted."

"Why worry about being distracted?"

"Because it's dangerous here, I have to be alert to all possible problems."

"In the Ancient God Tower, the evil spirits and holy spirits are dangerous, the ferocious monsters are dangerous, and the mummies in the treasure pavilion are dangerous. What do you think, why is it more dangerous than them all? Do you think you are the most dangerous?"

Fang Yun thought of this and suddenly murmured to himself: "Yes, why should I suspect that there is something wrong with me?"

“Why should I care if a feeling is real or unreal?”

"Why should I doubt that I'm wrong without any solid evidence?"

Fang Yun's eyes gradually became clear.

Fang Yun walked down the blue clouds and stepped on the ground.

"This ground is hard."

Fang Yun looked forward.

"There is light and there is darkness."

Fang Yun looked at the walls, ground and roof again.

"Tangible, colored."

Fang Yun's eyes became firm.

"What I establish is true for all things!"

Fang Yun's voice is obviously ordinary, but when you listen carefully, it is majestic and deafening.

Using self as a reference, then everything in the world is true. This is an undoubted truth.

Since everything is true, there is no illusion or illusion.

I haven't even fully understood the truth, so why should I care about those illusions and illusions?

"What do I want to ask for? Seek the holy way and open up peace for all ages! Now that I know what I want, all kinds of distracting thoughts are just distracting thoughts. Distracted thoughts are neither things nor Tao. If we look deeply, they are nothing more than the superposition of distracting thoughts, layer by layer. Mere distracting thoughts are not true. Depression, if there is depression, if there are literary courage on the top and medical books on the bottom, the disease will definitely be cured. "

"Heaven and earth are real and I am good. Why do I have to deny myself and beg the ghosts and gods?"

No matter it's good or bad, real or illusory, dangerous or safe, nothing can shake your heart or make your heart muddy.

"If I don't force myself to cause trouble, my mind will be clear."

Fang Yun had a smile on his face, his literary courage was whispering, his eyes were crystal clear, and his whole body was shining brightly, illuminating the maze.

The literary courage is covered with dust and burned out in an instant.

Fang Yun could still feel a specious spiritual force affecting him, and he didn't know whether it was an external object or coming from the heart.

Fang Yun smiled calmly and didn't care.

Good is true, bad is also true.

Distracting thoughts are like an uneven land. Even if you cross it, it will still be there. There is no completely flat place in the world, because from a high altitude, even the earth is uneven.

Life is short, so look for the sweetness of life instead of denying your own life.

"Treasure, I'm coming!"

Fang Yun continued to move forward with a chic smile on his face.

Although the fog is thick, it cannot stop the moving body!

The more Fang Yun moves forward, the more he feels the existence of that power, and the lighter his heart becomes, because after figuring out "my heart is self-evident", Wen Dan has made obvious progress.

Those distracting thoughts are like the whetstone for tempering literary courage.

Not long after, a demon king suddenly appeared at the corner ahead.

Fang Yun took a closer look and found out that it was the Bear Figurine Emperor. Before entering the Holy Burial Valley, he was a relatively famous five-level demon king in the demon world. His strength was not overwhelming, but he liked to fight with all races and was quite prestigious.

The bear figurine emperor saw Fang Yun at the same time, grinned, showing a mouth full of fangs, and then was stunned, because it saw that Fang Yun, who was in the third realm, was not only not afraid or running away, but his eyes were bright and his face was full of smiles. The excitement rushed over.

At this moment, Fang Yun does not look like a cautious human race, but like a demon hunting for food.

"No, there's something fishy!"

The Bear Emperor felt something was wrong instinctively, and when he saw Fang Yun wearing a powerful turtle armor battle body, he immediately dropped his palms to the ground and ran away.

When Fang Yun saw this scene, he was also stunned for a moment. A man with a noble mind ran away when he saw him. Could it be that his literary name could be transformed into a prestigious name? Or is it already injured and fearing being robbed after receiving a valuable treasure?

"Can't let it go!"

Fang Yun originally had achieved enlightenment and wanted to try his skills, but now he was happy to see that he was hunting and accelerated to catch up.

So, in the vast maze, a figure less than one foot long chased a giant bear that was forty to fifty feet long and more than ten feet tall.

Fang Yun could only see the huge furry butt of the giant bear from behind.

The Bear Emperor looked at Fang Yun while running, and found that Fang Yun was speeding up to chase him. He felt angry and depressed, and his anger gradually grew.

"Fang Yun, do you think this emperor is afraid of you?"

"Why are you not afraid of running away?"

The Xiong Yong Emperor was choked and speechless. He became more and more angry, and blood slowly gathered in his eyes, which became redder and redder.

"Hand over the treasure, and I will spare your life!"

The Xiong Yong Emperor's body trembled, and the blood in his eyes dissipated more than half. He was extremely panicked: "How did he know that I got a treasure? But I don't even know what the treasure is for. Should I give it to him?"

The Xiong Yong Emperor felt humiliated. The pride of the Yao Man Emperor made it impossible for him to accept Fang Yun's conditions.

"How about I exchange the Holy Qi Ball with you?" Fang Yun keenly noticed the changes in the Xiong Yong Emperor's body. He didn't expect that he was a blind cat that met a dead mouse and guessed it right.

The Xiong Yong Emperor was so angry that his nose was crooked. The human race and the Yao Man were ready to fight to the death when they met in the Burial Valley of the Holy Land. Fang Yun actually started a business. This was the biggest humiliation for the Yao Man.

"Fang Yun, I'm going to look for treasures, I don't want to bother with you, don't be ungrateful! You are only in the third realm, I can kill you with one palm!"

"Then come on." Fang Yun said.

The rationality in the eyes of the Bear Warrior Emperor was finally overwhelmed by anger and humiliation. He turned around suddenly, and his body was still retreating under the influence of inertia. His huge claws scratched the ground and rubbed out conspicuous sparks.

"The emperor cannot be insulted!" The Bear Warrior Emperor screamed and pounced on Fang Yun.

Fang Yun was surprised. He didn't insult the Bear Warrior Emperor, why did it get angry?

Fang Yun had summoned the famous generals of the war poems on the way. After stopping, he immediately summoned tens of thousands of war poem soldiers. After the Bear Warrior Emperor approached, a stream appeared under his feet and covered the mask of the turtle armor battle body.

For the stream, the weight of dozens of tons is as light as a feather.

Then, Fang Yun summoned two ordinary fifth realm spirit skeletons.

"Fang Yun, you are really good. You have something to rely on. But do you think that a mere emperor's skeleton can stop me? Half-saint ancestor soul!"

The bear figurine emperor roared, and a huge shadow of a giant bear appeared behind him. Then the giant bear entered his body, making his momentum rise steadily, as powerful as a half-saint.

In fact, to use modern terms, Confucianism is a complex of many aspects including philosophy of life, political philosophy, moral philosophy and even religious philosophy. Since it is about writing about Confucianism, some basic concepts must be involved.

In fact, it is not difficult to write such things, but it is difficult to explain them clearly. In fact, many philosophical things cannot be explained clearly, especially metaphysical things, especially those involving religious philosophy or philosophy of life.

However, if I don't explain it, this book will be written in vain, so I will occasionally extract some Confucian things and write them out. Of course, there won't be too many of these things. First, if there are too many, readers will be annoyed, and second, it will be troublesome for me to write them myself.

These two chapters, or starting from "My Heart is Clear", are actually about the context of Confucianism from the Tang Dynasty to the Song and Ming Dynasties. They are all based on reality. If you think they are too fantasy, just treat them as the enlightenment of the unknown in the fairy tales.

In short, these principles are true.
