Chapter 396
A few days later, a convoy drove out of Furong Garden and headed straight for the south of the city.
Gan Ehe didn't want to mobilize the masses. Ruixian entered the Xuanyuan Spirit Map and could not return. For Jiangxian and Quexian, they could only briefly explain a few words to them, so that they could handle their own affairs well and did not have to come and see each other off.
As for Banbi Sect and the Presbyterian Church, since Mingqin raised a difficult problem last time and asked them to go back to discuss, he has not appeared for many times, and probably has not considered it clearly.
Mu Qingjue and Qin Suhui returned to the Mu family, but there was no such good man as Ruixian who was disguised and strolled. It was not easy to sneak into Mu Mansion to find out what was happening.
Mingqin calmed down these days, but felt that Gan Ehe's considerations were not completely unreasonable. People always had to grow up by themselves. Assuming that he did not come to the fairy world and was established, Lishan's mother would also let their siblings enter the world to practice. Bai Suzhen and Zhu Yingtai are good examples. Without saplings, they would always grow into towering trees.
Once you enter the secular world, you can only obey the order and rules of the world. From ancient times to the present, there are also a generation of famous people who are unrestrained and unruly, who are not bound by secular etiquette and unruly. However, these people have given up their pursuit of the world psychologically, or are too disappointed with the unbreakable secular power, and have no choice but to choose a kind of self-exile.
Since ancient times, there have been many people who knew that they could not do it. Confucius, who was rich and noble because of his unrighteousness, fame and fortune like clouds, Mencius who was successful without being extravagant, and who went alone with millions of people, and Qu Yuan who was independent while Su Shi, and who was arrogant but not in a state of turmoil. There are probably some people who always have hope for the present world, and they can be determined and loyal, without complaints or regrets no matter how they are displaced and suffer.
With the completeness of the utensils and the competition intensifies, people with keen perceptions perceive vulgarity and pain in the world, often miss the simple and simple life of the three generations ago, and even advocate it as a golden society. Therefore, there are discussions that the world is getting worse and the people's hearts are not as old as ever.
The most obvious one is the Laozi and Zhuangzi faction. The comments on the fact that the saints do not die, the thieves do not stop, and the saints abandon wisdom. The people benefit a hundred times. The observation that Laozi and Zhuang are the current situation is indeed unique and uneasy, but their opinions are too idealized or taken for granted.
Until ancient times, there were still many tribes in the world who were struggling in deep mountains and old forests, living a life that was unchanging for thousands of years. There was no saint or intelligence, but what was the truth? It was just that it was rotten with plants and trees, and even the conditions for living were extremely poor. How could it be that small country has few people, and clean and beautiful clothes?
However, the cunning and deception in the world is also an evolution of intelligence. A companion creature of artifact civilization is mostly caused by the ills of human hearts and the deception of material desires to an unsurpassed level, which will lead to disasters, wars, lowly lives, and disasters. After the chaos, the people will decrease, and people need to accumulate material resources again and restore construction, and people can also return to a relatively simple and honest relationship of mutual assistance.
The ancients often said that the cycle of chaos was not actually very mysterious, wonderful and incomprehensible, but the inevitable trend of the rise and fall of human desires.
Zhang Zi said, "Set up your mind for heaven and earth, and establish your destiny for the people." Heaven has constant actions, and will not survive for Yao, nor will it perish for Jie. What kind of heart is the heaven and earth? It is far beyond the human divine way to see. Immortals pay attention to the way of heaven and earth, so they must establish a heart for heaven and earth, "We must follow the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the way, and the Tao follows nature."
Human beings govern the three realms. They also want to establish a personal heart for the heaven and earth, and everything is based on humanity. Take the cycle of chaos as an example, it is not a law that is unwavering. Although from the past historical observation, the end of Zhou and Qin was revived in the Han Dynasty. The end of Jin and Sui Dynasty was revived in the Tang Dynasty, and the last of Song and Yuan Dynasties were revived in the Ming Dynasty.
But there must be countless people with lofty ideals who are determined to make opposite efforts towards the last days of decline and chaos, to achieve righteousness and be virtuous, and to treat death as if they are home. The so-called "Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement." It is a hopeful sustenance.
Even so, the prospects of Zhongxia are not so optimistic. The general view is that the hundreds of years of the Ming and Qing dynasties are not as good as the achievements made by the Tang, Song, Han and Jin dynasties.
Mencius attributed the practice of Confucianism and Taoism to six realms, namely, believers, good people, beauties, adults, saints, and gods.
"What is desirable is good, what is self-righteous is faith, what is fulfilled is beauty, what is fulfilled is glorious is great, what is great and transformed is holy, and what is sage but unknowable is called god."
Mencius’s understanding of sacred is exactly the opposite of Zhuangzi. Zhuangzi said, “The most powerful person has no self, the gods have no merits, and the sage has no name.”
Mencius's understanding is consistent with Confucius' attitude of not speaking of strangeness, power, chaos, and gods. Therefore, the sage is the highest state of Confucianism. Confucius was respected as the most sage and teacher, and no one could pass it. Yan Hui was restored to the sage, Zeng Zi was the sage of the clan, Zi Si was the sage of the sage, and Mencius was the sub-sage.
As for God, he has entered an unknown field. Confucius did not speak of strangeness, power, or chaos, and God could also be said to be a scientific attitude. The science of Taixi excluded these unverifiable research objects. What is strange is that although the descendants tried their best to respect Confucius, many of their actions were completely contrary to his opinions, and there were many strange aspirations and strangeness.
Although Zhuangzi was ridiculed by the way of heaven and not knowing the way of human beings, his discussion was vast and unrestrained, as if the river and the river were invincible. His attention was indeed very different from Confucianism. For example, the theory of "Heaven and Earth are born together, and all things are one with me" does not even admit that right and wrong has strict standards, which may not conform to the Confucian tradition of ritual constraints.
Therefore, his saint realm is more than gods and humans. For example, Lao Tzu of Taiqing and Buddha of the Western Heaven all respected saints as saints, not gods and humans.
After all, the sacred realm cannot be achieved by accumulating learning. The understanding mentioned in Buddhism and Taoism is somewhat similar to the emotional intelligence mentioned by Taixi. It seems to be a bit indescribable.
The difficulty of life lies not all in the difficulty of life, but in the difficulty of being born empty. Void life is the so-called mediocre and inaction, without any intention. It is a life that has been completed in a daze.
The first step in life is the manifestation of oneself, hunger, eating, thirsty, drinking, and sleeping day and night. People are used to it, but they cannot say that there is self in it. The self must arise from independent actions and independent spirit, which is neither a habitual act nor a restrictive act.
With self-awakening, there is further a requirement to realize oneself. That is, the meaning of life. Most people don’t want their lives to be meaningful, but more people don’t know what the meaning of life is. That’s why Lao Tzu picked up the word Tao, and Confucius even said, “I’ll die in the morning when I hear the Tao in the morning.”
Sometimes humans are bound by customs like cattle and horses tied to a stable. They are not without strength and footwork, but have been tamed long ago.
Mencius said, "Everyone can be Yao and Shun." The Buddha said, "Buddha is sentient being, and sentient beings are Buddhas." However, Yao and Shun are still Yao and Shun, and Buddha is still Buddhas. Although there is no great difference in the materials of the world, the wisdom roots vary from person to person, and learning ability can be accumulated. Wisdom enlightenment is a very subtle thing.
The fairy world generally believes in Ziyou. What Zhuangzi said is not enough is a state of great self-guiding. Lao Tzu said that inaction is not good, and Buddhism said that being careful not to plant causes is also a way to avoid bonds. However, the world is very different from entering the world. The secular world is a society of people, and self-guiding is like the distance between people. The greater the space for self-guiding, the less self-guiding there will be. Therefore, there are many conventional ritual systems or laws formulated by the government to limit the boundaries of people's activities.
Therefore, Ziyou does not expand his desires infinitely. Instead, he wants to leave room for others to avoid conflicting with each other and make each other feel pain.
…………
For a few days, Mingqin stayed at the Furong Garden gate and did not leave, and the two gates were not crossed, but there was no news from outside.
What he unexpectedly expected was that in order to rescue Wei Chunfeng, the Wei family mobilized elite soldiers from Youdu City to attack the Yujing branch of the Shenguang Cult, and wiped out its many years of operations in one fell swoop. It is said that even Zhuo Yi was caught.
Although the Qingyi Society did not participate in the Shenguang Cult operation, Ruixian sneaked into Mu Mansion and captured Jiang Cailian some time ago, and then attacked and took advantage of the chaos to rob Qin Suhui.
Meng Qin, who plotted to plot against Wei Chunfeng this time, was Ruixian's disciple. Although she and Yang Xuzhou escaped by chance, the Wei family mobilized the whole city and investigated it very tightly. If they were captured, the details of the Qingyi Society might be revealed.
Gan Ehe hurriedly left Beijing, and I believe there were also considerations in this regard.
The journey to Qiongzhou is long, and the roads are well connected, and the planes or sea boats are relatively stable. Gan Ehe has a special identity. It is inevitable that some people with poor intentions will secretly spy on them. Although she is preparing to take away some possessions, she plans to go there and handle the relevant consignment for the convenience of movement and not attracting attention.
The convoy sent Gan Ehe and others to Chengnan Airport. Gan Ehe, Mingqin, Wu Ying and several trusted disciples got off the car. The convoy went around the city until it was almost night before returning to Furong Village.
The air tickets were bought in advance. Everyone walked into the airport and there was not much time left before the plane was driving. Several people only brought some simple luggage. If there was a Xiandao storage bag, it would be even more convenient.
Several people sat in the waiting room and waited patiently. Because of the trip, everyone dressed in a simple and plain manner. Gan Ehe was wearing a brown hairpin, a felt hat with a date head, and a pair of brown glasses. She leaned on the chair with expressionless face, which smelled unpredictable.
Wu Ying and several female disciples were wearing warrior uniforms and zithered heads, and were full of heroic spirits.
The waiting room was coming and going, and the voice was noisy. Mingqin put on the back of the chair and glanced around, a little absent-minded.
After a while, a burst of electric bells came from the air, and everyone stood up and surrounded the airport.
Gan Ehe took two steps and suddenly covered her stomach and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable, Fu'er, come with me."
As he said that, he pulled Mingqin and retreated aside. At this time, there were crowds of people. Even if Wu Ying and others noticed it, they could not come over to inquire.
"Auntie, are you okay?"
Ming Qin didn't understand why, so he stroked Gangehe's shoulders and felt very kind.
Gan Ehe smiled and shook her head, pulled him out of the abortion, walked to the nearby bathroom, and reminded him: "You can wait for me here for a while."
Ming Qin nodded slightly, and seeing her flashing in, it was not convenient to follow.
The abortion seemed like a heavy rain, and it became sparse at a moment. Ming Qin waited boredly, but he didn't know what kind of illness Gan Ehe had. It might be a private matter of some women, so it was difficult to ask about it.
After the meal, a figure came out slowly from the bathroom. Mingqin was slightly happy. When he turned his head to see, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
At first glance, this woman is somewhat similar to Gan Ehe, but when she looks closely, she is completely different. She is wearing a dark blue dress, very simple, with an ordinary appearance, frowns, slightly gray on her temples, but her temperament is not very rough.
Ming Qin was stunned for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and continued to wait. The woman walked slowly past him, took a few steps, and suddenly turned around and glanced at him, with a faint smile on her eyes.
Ming Qin felt something, stared at her figure and thought about it. A trace of familiarity flashed across his heart. He suddenly woke up and quickly chased after him.
The two walked out of the airport one after another, and the woman in blue was getting faster and faster. The airport was remote. Although there was a flat official road outside, there were few people.
The woman in blue walked to a fork, stopped, waved to stop a taxi, and sat in the back seat with a short body.
"Master, wait a moment."
Mingqin rushed into the fairy carriage quickly and got to the woman in blue.
The car chuckled and said, "Where are you going?"
"Zhongnan Station." The woman in blue lowered her voice.
"So too." Mingqin looked at her and smiled.
"Okay. You guys are ready." The carman responded and activated the magic circle and left as if flying.
The woman in blue said lukewarmly: "Brother, do you recognize me? What are you doing after me?"
"You didn't dig the road, and the car was not yours. If you walk yours, I'll sit mine. Why is it that I follow you?"
Mingqin felt funny inward and thought to himself that if you pretend not to know me, I will cooperate with you.
The woman in blue suddenly said in a mess and asked, "Where are you going to when you arrive at the station? The world is so big, we won't happen to be on the same road again."
Ming Qin smiled and said, "That's not sure, what if we are destined to be together? What about you if I want to go to Longmen?"
The woman in blue glanced at him and said nothing.
The car secretly ignored it and saw their age from the rear mirror above his head, thinking: This world is so strange. This man is young and handsome, and his family looks good. It’s okay for the woman to be in her forty or fifty years. This kid can still chase after her. If she doesn’t have a unique taste, she must be true love.
After about a quarter of an hour, the driver took the two to the station. Mingqin hurriedly paid the money and chased the girl in blue.
The car couldn't help but shout and said loudly: "Come on, little brother, I'm optimistic about you."
Ming Qin looked back in confusion, hurried twice, grabbed the woman in blue by the arm, and complained: "Auntie, where are we going to go."
It turned out that he saw that the girl in blue and Gan Ehe had a similar back, and remembered that Ruixian had a magical technique of disguising herself. Gan Ehe was her master, and even if she didn't teach her personally, it wouldn't be surprising to understand some mysteries.
"Who is your aunt? You can eat randomly, and relatives cannot recognize each other. If you mess around, I will investigate and arrest you." The woman in blue brushed away his palm and said seriously.
Ming Qin was stunned for a moment, seeing that her expression did not look like she was fake, she suddenly became furious and said to herself, "Can I behaved smart and recognized the wrong person? Could it be that I really threw my aunt to the airport? This is a big problem." (To be continued.)
