Huang Chengyan was also a little surprised. He had no idea that Liu Xiu had already determined to make his daughter ugly, but he must have taken him as his daughter-in-law. He originally thought that Liu Xiu was just using marriage as a reason, not taking it seriously. (Baidu search: Sui Meng Novel Network, the fastest update to read novels) But now seeing Liu Xiu say this in front of Mrs. Lu, the taste is completely different.

Although Huang Chengyan didn't know what Liu Xiu liked his daughter, it was a very respectful thing to be taken by the General of the Cheqi. Besides, although he was a hermit, he could not survive by drinking the northwest wind. He also needed benefits. A gentleman loved money and used the way of taking it. The only difference between him and those people is that he was more strict in selecting people.

He naturally doesn't like Liu Biao's lord who is not good at it. He will not reject Liu Xiu's lord who is both internal and external. Although Huang Chengyan doesn't know this, he understands the truth. No one wants to learn all the skills but can only make toys for his daughter.

Seeing Mrs. Lu looking at him in surprise, he followed the situation and briefly said the reason. Mrs. Lu suddenly realized and said according to her own understanding: "Senior brother is very skilled and the general is keen to recognize people. You are really destined to be."

Huang Chengyan remembered what the ship boss said about both inside and outside, and asked: "General, I wonder what the internal and external cultivation you advocate means? Please give me some advice."

Liu Xiu smiled slightly and turned to Mrs. Lu and said, "Mrs. National Master, you have met for the first time. I am really happy. Could it be that the wife can't even give up a little drink? You, the host, are you too stingy? Or is it because I am an outsider, which affects your classmates' reunion. If this is the case, then I will take a step first?"

Mrs. Lu hesitated for a while. She had not faced Liu Xiu alone for a long time. Even if other people were present, she tried to avoid Liu Xiu. Now she had the first meeting with Huang Chengyan, and Liu Xiu said this. She was a little uncomfortable and had to apologize: "I was so happy that I was confused. Please forgive me. Senior brother, please allow me to prepare some water and drinks. Have a chat with the general."

Huang Chengyan didn't know the relationship between them and was very happy: "That would be better, that would be better."

Mrs. Lu arranged a dinner party and called Zhao Chang and others to accompany her. Zhao Chang, Wang Zhi and Luo Yao heard that Huang Chengyan was the successor of the master's wife Mo Zi's mechanical skills. They were all very surprised. After talking to Huang Chengyan during the meal, they realized what Mo Zi's mechanical skills were. They were very moved. The master's wife's Taoist skills had already made them feel incredible. Unexpectedly, she was still proficient in Mo Zi's mechanical skills. More importantly, when she heard Mrs. Lu's tone, it seemed that in addition to the people present, the master's wife might have other skills to pass on to other fellow students. Thinking of the master's wife's wife with many unique skills, it was amazing that the image in their hearts was even taller and more sacred.

Liu Xiu is an outsider. He listened a lot and said little. Even Huang Chengyan asked about both internal and external cultivation and did not need him to answer it personally. Mrs. Lu is a better witness than him, and of course it is more convincing than him. The so-called internal and external cultivation is a new point of view put forward by Liu Xiu on Taoism. Taoist priests who practice Taoism are originally both internal and external cultivation, and the inner refers to breathing and meditation, and the outer practice is elixir and other activities, while Taoist techniques such as talismans are both internal and external, and cannot be separated at all. Liu Xiu focused on expanding the outside side, and promoted all technologies from activities closely related to elixirs and other activities such as cultivation and immortality to all technologies. His reason is that since I said that Taoism follows nature, you should study nature and study the entire world, rather than just being limited to alchemy.

In fact, he promoted the connotation of Taoism in and out of Taoism with infinite significance and included all technical activities, which also laid the necessary theoretical foundation for Taoists to study various practical technologies. For Mrs. Lu and others, his expansion was a bit big. But for a time traveler like him, it would be unreasonable not to do this.

For him, the biggest change is in it.

As a person educated by basic scientific concepts, he has never been dissatisfied with things like meditation and meditation. However, he has experienced too many things in this life and has completely different views on this world. He has developed a strong interest and practical impulse to Eastern philosophy, which has been included in the mysticism in later generations. He was originally familiar with some Taoist theories in his study of calligraphy and painting, but they are limited to the scope of philosophy and have little experience within the scope of practice. Now, through his own practice, he not only has experienced the role of qi, but also has personally experienced the wonderfulness of the internal qi running in his body. In facts, how can he turn a blind eye to it and denounce it as false? Wouldn't that become idealism?

He vaguely felt that the science of later generations would certainly be wrong, but it was incomplete. If science based on Western empirical logic is called extroverted science, then the various practice methods called Eastern mysticism practice may be inward science, a way to understand the world through self-reflection. However, this method is more difficult, and it is inevitably distorted in inheritance, deviating from the truth, and eventually becomes various deceptions, and the true scientific truth is concealed.

This is just like the Buddhist enlightenment and gradual enlightenment. The sudden enlightenment emphasizes enlightenment and points directly to the human heart. The gradual enlightenment refers to the orderly approaching and requires years of hard practice. The sudden enlightenment refers to opportunities, more understanding, gradual enlightenment refers to patience, and more spirit of suffering. The sudden enlightenment was originally intended to attract those literati who could not practice hard to participate in promoting Buddhism, but later more and more people practice sudden enlightenment, and few people are willing to practice hard step by step, and do not ask whether they have the understanding. In fact, to put it bluntly, they are still afraid of suffering, unwilling to work hard, and want to take shortcuts. What is the result? As a result, practicing Zen became a fighter and talkative, and few people really put their heart into Buddhism.

Whether it is the Tai Chi diagram or the Dharma wheel of Buddhism, they have become a symbol and a philosophical symbol. How many Taoists or monks know that it might have been a model of the Milky Way? Maybe the Buddha knows it, maybe I know it, but few people later know it.

Liu Xiu was not from science and knew only about astronomy and physics, but he believed that since things really existed, they had the value of research. Walking on two legs is always stronger than walking on one leg. He was an Oriental, and of course he did not want the degeneration of the East to become mysticism. In the end, Westerners had to use their science to prove the greatness of ancient sages in the East.

His view was unanimously agreed by Mrs. Lu and others, and Huang Chengyan also agreed very much. The official knowledge of the imperial court is Confucianism. Although it is not the breathing skill in Taoism, the rejection and suppression of technology are also very obvious. He certainly agreed with Liu Xiu's raising of the 100-technical technology to the same level as the Confucianism for research.

Everyone was close to each other, so of course they had a great time. After the banquet, Huang Chengyan was taken to have tea by Zhao Chang and the others. Mrs. Lu was about to get up to say goodbye, but Liu Xiu called her.

"I will go east to Jingzhou soon, and then I will go to Yangzhou and Qingxu areas. Do you have any plans to go with me?"

Mrs. Lu was silent. Of course she knew that this was Liu Xiu's invitation. Liu Xiu hoped that she would go with him. It was said that following Liu Xiu's army, it was the best opportunity to promote the Tianshi Taoist Tao. Most of the Taoists were well-versed in medical skills and had unique features in soothing people's hearts. It could not only heal the wounded soldiers, but also comfort their hearts. Having a group of Taoist priests in the army was a good thing for Liu Xiu, and preaching to them was also a great opportunity. But she also knew that Liu Xiu invited her to walk with her was not just as simple as preaching.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Liu Xiu sighed softly: "You have been with me for many years, and you should know my nature. You are the wife of the national master and the leader of the Taoist Taoism of Heaven. I dare not ask too much, nor will I force anything, but if you avoid me like this, are you too attached to me?"

Mrs. Lu slowly turned around and looked at the stars outside. After a while, she said, "According to the Taoist Book, people are stars in the sky. If a person dies, there will be one more star in the sky. I don't know which one is my husband."

Liu Xiu was speechless, and he frowned: "There is Longhu Mountain in Yuzhang, where the Tianshi once refined elixirs. Longhu Mountain is located in the middle of the Yangtze River and is more suitable for Taoist ancestral home than Huming Mountain. If you still remember your husband, why did you forget his lifelong ambition? Besides, you said that your master may not have become an immortal yet. What I want to ask is why did your husband not rescue him when he died of illness? That was her son."

Mrs. Lu looked at him in confusion: "What exactly do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is that you are attached to the image." Liu Xiu slowly walked to Mrs. Lu: "And, you have evil thoughts in your heart."

Mrs. Lu's face turned red. Just as she was about to speak, Liu Xiu raised a finger and placed it on her lips and shook her head gently: "You know I'm not a lustful person. I won't take you as a wife and concubine just because you used room art to save me. To be honest, I have no interest in practicing Taoism, so you don't have to avoid me specifically. Actually..." He paused, "You are not avoiding me, you just refuse to face your heart." He pointed to Mrs. Lu's chest: "Where is your heart of Tao? Is there only your body left in your mind, but you forgot the heart of Taoism. When will you surpass your master and break through the dragon yin?"

Mrs. Lu was blushed by Liu Xiu's frivolous movements, and instinctively took a step back and glared at Liu Xiu angrily. Liu Xiu looked at her very seriously: "Remember, I don't lack women, but I don't lack a strong national teacher. To introduce Taoism into the official school system, I still have many difficulties to face. A strong national teacher can help me overcome many difficulties, so I hope you can let go of your inner demons as soon as possible, break through the dragon roar, and help me with your arms."

After saying that, he signaled with his jaw, took a step back, turned around and left.

Mrs. Lu looked at Liu Xiu's straight back disappearing from the distance, and was stunned for a long time before breathing a sigh of relief. She was facing Liu Xiu just now, even though her realm was already at the level of Tiger Roar, she felt a little nervous, even more nervous than facing an opponent in the realm of Dragon Roar.

Liu Xiu was gone, but Liu Xiu's words echoed in her mind. I don't lack women, but I need a strong national teacher. I hope you can break through Long Yin as soon as possible.

Is it true that my heart of Tao is not strong and I have a distorted mind? Mrs. Lu raised her head, looked at the stars in the sky, put her hands together, and prayed silently. Husband, if you look at the world, tell me what to do.
