Chapter 168 Restarting the Holy Court of Confucianism and Taoism

The children said in a tender voice: "If you don't teach strictly, it's the fault of your teacher."

The child's answer is like a slap on these parents.

Children remember what the Master taught, but what about these fathers? Has they taught them after raising children?

Obviously there is no such thing. I am afraid of pain when I beat you, scold you and cry. I have been used to having sex since I was a child, and I don’t care about it.

But after Li Bai taught his children, did they not notice that the children had undergone earth-shaking changes?

They discovered that they were only influenced by feudal ideas, which led them not to know that this was a good thing. Instead, they believed that a man who did these things lost his identity.

Li Bai asked, "Master teaches you whether you are strict or not?"

"strict."

"The Master told you to respect your parents, respect your brothers, and respect your younger brothers. Why is this?"

"The Master said that this is the foundation of filial piety as a human being."

Li Bai nodded and said, "That's right, this is the filial piety that a Son of Man needs to achieve. You are not kind, unrighteous and unfilial, and you are out of your clothes and food. Do your parents owe you?"

"No, parents don't owe you, but you owe your parents."

"My parents gave you the warmest care when you were still in your infancy."

"When you are learning to speak, your parents are very caring for you and teach you the language."

"My parents followed you when you were toddlers, for fear that you would fall."

"When you can walk or run, parents rack their brains to think about how to give you better food and grow up quickly."

"Parents are great."

"But... some parents are ignorant."

Li Bai's last words made the parents feel a little ashamed. They... were indeed a little ignorant.

Li Bai said: "Do you know why you are ignorant?"

Many children shook their heads...

But the parents were ashamed of shame.

Li Bai said: "They think you are a man and a man, and you will not give you a low attitude and respect your parents."

"I think this will lose the face of the dragon and phoenix among you, but I don't know that this is a great mockery."

"What should children and grandchildren do not respect their elders?"

"Born as a treasure, what if an adult insect goes?"

"There is a saying that goes, if you don't make trouble, you may do nothing for the rest of your life."

"But if you have to make trouble, failure may also be mediocre, but if you succeed, you may be able to keep your name forever."

After Li Bai said something, Li Dayuan, who was standing at the corner of the end, felt very ashamed.

He taught his children that they were all about being a human being and doing things, but he never said what is the fundamental thing about being a human being.

He is not as good as Li Bai! Although Li Bai is young, Li Bai understands the meaning of sages more thoroughly than him and his ideas are more comprehensive than him.

Li Dayuan came forward and for Li Bai, he had already given up his so-called face.

I just haven't found a chance to tell Li Bai clearly that he is actually... not as good as Li Bai.

He hopes that Li Bai will teach the children in the village again and let the children learn from Li Bai.

Children remember what Li Bai taught in their hearts, but none of the poems and essays he taught could recite the whole poem.

From this we can see that teaching is a very important thing.

However, Li Bai’s teaching method was passed down through generations of traditions by his ancestors, and finally formed a textbook-like teaching method suitable for contemporary children.

Li Dayuan came to Li Bai, clasped his fists and said, "Li Bai, what you said today made me understand the fundamentals of being a human being."

"I used to be competitive and said something bad to you because of my age. Don't take it to heart..."

"I am old, this is the world of young people. You are both virtuous and talented, kind and humble. When you come to Canyon Village, you are rich in Canyon Village, not causing harm to Canyon Village."

"In the past, I had many disdainful words to offend you, it was mine, not..."

"I am even more unsightly than you in my children's teaching methods. Thanks to the praise of the villagers, today I know that there are strong people who are strong and powerful, and there are people who are outside the world."

"It's me that I feel ashamed of my trust in the villagers and delayed the children!"

"I am a sinner. Master Li, today I kneel down for you. Please... restart the Confucian and Taoist Holy Academy and give your child a future..."

Li Dalian said, and was about to kneel down for Li Bai.

Li Laoshi, who was standing not far behind Li Bai, could not let his father kneel down? He hurried forward and was about to block his father from kneeling down. He knelt down for Li Bai.

Li Bai immediately stepped forward, supported the two of them with both hands, and said, "Old Li doesn't need to be like this... Honest brother, what are you doing?"

Li Bai helped the two of them stand up and prevented them from kneeling.

Li Bai glared at Li Laoshi and said, "Honest brother, you are really, why are you joining in the fun?"

"I..." Li Laoshi scratched his head.

Li Bai patted his shoulder and said, "I treat you like your elder brother. You are kind-hearted. Although you leave your ancestral home, you have always been obsessed with your parents in your ancestral home."

"How can I let your father kneel down on me? Besides, shouldn't all bachelors in the world communicate academically with a normal mind, gain their strengths and make up for their own weaknesses?"

"Old Li doesn't need to feel guilty. Experience is a treasure of a person's life. Using these experiences to teach future generations is undoubtedly a traditional virtue."

"As for the reopening of the Confucian and Taoist Holy Academy..."

"Teacher, we were wrong. Before... we were obsessed with the wickedness and slandered the master."

"The child is now one of your students, Master, I hope Master will take in."

"Yes! Master, just take these children in! We are not educated and have no education, and we don't know how to teach our children."

“Master…”

Everyone looked at Li Bai with hope.

When Li Bai heard this, he thought of the great cause of the revival of Confucianism and Taoism...

Maybe I don’t want to accept these villagers’ children in my heart.

But when Li Bai thought that the children were all innocent, he felt a little reluctant.

Finally, Li Bai looked at everyone and said, "Are you sure... you want me to open the Confucian and Taoist Holy Academy to enlighten the children?"

"I'm sure, Master."

"Yes, we used to be ignorant of Mount Tai and were ignorant. Master, don't take it to heart."

"Why don't you come and call me Master..."

The villagers looked like what they said at the beginning when Li Bai enlightened their children.

It sounds a bit sarcastic, but Li Bai looked at the children with expectations and nodded, saying, "Okay! Then... restart the Confucian and Taoist Holy Academy to enlighten the children..."

"Thank you, thank you!"

“Hello Master…”

"I can learn from Master again, so happy."

"Teacher, Master...I have never known what it means to be human..."
