"A few days ago, Linzi heard that Taoist Tianzong Xuan Qingzi and Qin State Daowu Zhenjun were here in person. At that time, Hou Sheng thought it was just a rumor. He never thought that it would be an honor for the academy to have Daowu Zhenjun come in person."
The prime minister of Qi State, Empress Sheng, looked very happy. When he heard that Zhou Qing had revealed his identity, he immediately stepped down from the first table and came forward to bow. If he was just an ordinary disciple of the Taoist Tianzong, there would be no need to do this.
But among the Xia of today, who dares to despise the weight of Qin Ting Daowu Zhenjun!
Among the seven kingdoms of Xia, Qin was the only strong one. Although Qi and Qin were far apart, Qin and Qi had a very good relationship for decades, and even King Zhaoxiang of Qin and King Qi both proclaimed themselves emperors.
Even when the Yan State attacked Qi, it was only from the five countries except the Qin State. Therefore, how could they not make good friends with the important ministers of the Qin State? What's more, Zhenjun Daowu was quite trusted by the King of Qin.
"The Prime Minister has too much reputation."
"Today in the Jixia Academy, there is only the Taoist Tianzong Xuanqing, and there is no Qin Dynasty Daowu Zhenjun. In the hall of debate, discussing Taoism with hundreds of famous scholars can be regarded as Xuanqing's destiny."
He bowed to Hou Sheng, and then looked at the people around him again. His spiritual awareness spread, and everything emerged in his mind. When he heard the identity of Qin Ting Daowu Zhenjun, some people in the room looked surprised, some looked unchanged, and some
The sharp energy appears.
Yuluo, after entering the table on the right side in front of the high platform.
After hearing this, Hou Sheng nodded and returned to the top position without saying anything.
"Xuan Qingzi please speak!"
After three breaths, among the group of Taoists below the stage, Song Que, Yin Zhong, and several Tianzong Taoists stood up, raised their hands and looked at the figure on the high platform, and said a long word that spread throughout the debate hall.
"Xuan Qingzi please speak!"
People from hundreds of schools can have a son only if they have outstanding true principles or if they have a far-reaching reputation. Most of the people present have heard the identity information of Xuanqing, the Taoist Tianzong on the high platform.
He is an extremely talented disciple within the Tianzong. He came down the mountain to join the Qin court a few years ago and became the Protector of the Qin Kingdom. Later, he became the Taoist True Lord of the Qin Court. He held a high position and attracted the attention of hundreds of people.
However, to the Baijia people, especially those with a lot of background, this person is definitely the Baijia's enemy. In the past few years since he came down the mountain, countless people from the Baijia have fallen into his hands.
As for those small families, their own survival is in question, and they have no energy to get involved in other things. Today, it is a new thing for them. A young man from Tianzong is arguing. I wonder who can take the stage?
In agreement, Tao Dao's eyes are even more focused. According to the rules of the academy, you should first teach your own way, and then argue about the way to prove your superiority. After that, if you can remain undefeated, you should win.
"Fellow fellow Taoists, Taoism has been in existence for hundreds of years, and its general propositions are known to the world. I reiterate them one by one. It seems unnecessary, so I invite you to ask questions about the points of disagreement, confusion, and refutation."
"Xuanqing's answer must be targeted and hit the mark!"
He knelt down and sat behind the table on the high platform, looking down at the people in the audience. His eyes moved and passed over people from hundreds of families. The aura of some people was very familiar to him.
Although it is a lecture, Taoism has been based in Jixia Academy for more than a hundred years, and its actions and opinions have long been circulated to all the Xia. It is no longer necessary to continue, just talk lightly, and wait for people from hundreds of schools to get up.
"I am so weak, I dare to ask Xuan Qingzi, what is Tao?"
Hundreds of people were moving around, whispering a little, and suddenly, a slender figure stood up from one side, announced his door, bowed his hands, walked up to the high platform, sat down at another table, and asked questions.
However, the famous family suddenly weakened and wanted to open up one person first. Gongsun Linglong, a descendant of Gongsun Longzi, was still in his original position. When he spoke, the other hundreds of family members looked over and then looked at Zhou Qing.
"There is a mixture of things, born in heaven and earth, but with no form, slim and dark, lonely and indifferent, and whose sound cannot be heard. I forced myself to give it a name and call it Tao."
"Therefore, the great road is formless, giving birth to the heaven and the earth. The great road is ruthless, moving the sun and the moon. The great road is nameless, and it nourishes all things. I don't know its name, so I call it Tao. All things in the world are within the great road!"
Zhou Qing's expression was calm, he cupped his hands and bowed weakly to the person below him, and responded slowly.
"Can the avenue have a body?"
Pause and ask again.
"What is the shape and quality of Hongmeng's undiagnosed vitality?"
Zhou Qing replied.
"Is the Great Dao really ruthless? Why does it give birth to and nourish all things? Is this not sentient?"
Pause and ask again.
"Tao - originally belongs to the innate, silent and odorless. Emotion - originally belongs to the acquired, with action and action. Use ruthlessness to transform great love, ruthlessness is the way of inaction, and the way of inaction is inaction and everything!"
Zhou Qing continued to answer without thinking.
The hundreds of disciples under the high platform listened quietly. For hundreds of years, they naturally understood the Taoist propositions, but it is one thing to understand clearly, and it is another thing to listen to the Taoist disciples' arguments.
"Tao, law is natural, heaven and earth are naturally the great road?"
Pause and ask again.
"Tao can be Tao, but it is not the eternal Tao. Name, it can be named, but it is not the eternal name. Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth, named, the mother of all things."
"Tao, not Tao, nor non-Tao. Before the end of the universe, there is no sky, no earth, no yin, no yang, no sun, no moon, no crystal, no light, no east, no west, no south, no north, no front, no back, no garden. There is no direction, tens of billions of changes, vastness, formlessness and imagelessness, nature is empty and mysterious.”
"Afterwards, the mysteries are revealed, the great road emerges, and heaven and earth transform!"
Zhou Qing replied boldly.
"Wonderful!"
"Mysteries are revealed, the great road is revealed, and heaven and earth are transformed!"
Hearing this, he bowed his hands and bowed again without asking any more questions. He said loudly, looked around, looked satisfied and returned to his seat under the high platform.
"Wonderful!"
"Mysteries are revealed, the great road is revealed, and heaven and earth are transformed!"
There were no doubts among the hundreds of families. They glanced at each other and saw something on their faces. They all spoke loudly and praised. According to the rules of the academy, this was a victory in the debate. Although the questions and answers were not profound, new ideas were revealed.
Natural victory.
"Big brother, that famous family has already become a minister of the Qin court. Now I ask, it is just to increase the reputation of Tianzong Xuan Qingzi. A famous family has fallen like this. I wonder how Gongsun Longzi feels when he is still alive!"
Yu Mingjia Dunwei's identity may be a secret to the people of the small family present, but for all the disciples present, they know it well and are the first to ask questions, which is just to add color.
In the Mohist group in the Debate Hall, a young man beside Six-fingered Black Man whispered, quite disdainful of the famous master's style of silencing the weak. After all, famous masters are considered everyone, and they never expected to fall into such behavior!
"Don't cause too much trouble."
The six-fingered black man covered in a black cloak waved one hand, said nothing, and returned to silence.
"I, Ji Yanran of the Yin Yang family, would like to ask Xuan Qingzi, Tao has no permanent shape, and water has no permanent power. Why do all things in the world continue to this day and flourish for three generations?"
The holy white dress was added to the body, covered by light gauze, and the graceful figure appeared. She came out from the surrounding high platform. After entering the table, she knelt down and sat down, combing her hair, thinking a little, moving her bare hands slightly, Explore and ask.
"Tao, always does nothing, and does nothing without doing anything!"
In one word, Zhou Qing replied.
When Ji Yanran, a lineage of wise men from the Yin-Yang family, appeared in Jixia Academy, Zhou Qing was a little surprised. However, remembering that Zou Yan, the Yin-Yang family, had talked about winning a war decades ago, and the Yin-Yang family had prospered, he didn't think much about it.
"It is rumored in the world that Taoist people are often immoral and there is no point in life or death?"
Ji Yanran spoke softly and crisply, and then asked again empty-handedly.
"What is immoral?"
"Higher virtues are not virtuous, so there is virtue; lower virtues are not less virtuous, so there is no virtue. All living beings in the world are not virtuous. Being virtuous is virtuous."
"No point in life and death?"
"He who does not lose his place will live long, and he who dies without dying will live long. If you do evil, you will know that the deceased will not regret his original life. If you do evil, you will know that death is not weak, but if you don't know how to return, it will be evil! The yin and yang of heaven and earth, the cycle of life and death,
Therefore, when the time is right and everything is smooth, sorrow and joy cannot enter!"
Zhou Qing replied.
Taoist morality surpasses Confucian morality. Since the Spring and Autumn Period, rituals and music have collapsed and morality has ceased to exist. That is why Confucian morality has emerged. However, Taoist morality is the morality of heaven and earth.
The morality at the upper level means immorality. At that level, regardless of morality, everyone has morality. The morality at the lower level means morality. Everyone has moral problems, and those who are immoral are virtuous.
Yin and Yang, life and death, and Tao are integrated into one body and are inseparable.
"In recent years, it has been said that in Xuan Qingzi's Five Tribulations of Heaven and Earth, the Yuanshi Heavenly King is the entity of Tao. Isn't it invisibly different from Tao?"
Ji Yanran showed her head and nodded gently, confirming the truth and seeing through life and death. It is no wonder that the other party can cultivate to such a state at such an age and freely follow his principles. Then he asked another question.
"Master, is this Taoist Tianzong Xuan Qingzi a good person?"
In the Debate Hall, where the Confucian group was located, Gongduzi sat quietly on his knees behind a table. Hearing the questions and answers between Ji Yanran and Zhou Qing, several people around him moved slightly and murmured unconsciously.
"Junior Brother Xun Kuang once praised Taoist disciples. They are naturally good. If you listen quietly, you will gain something."
Gong Duzi nodded. The higher the Taoist practice, the deeper the understanding of the world and all things. Needless to say, Xuan Qingzi's cultivation level has become well-known in the Xia Dynasty in recent years. After listening to it today, you can get the essence of his philosophy.
"The Tao is invisible, quiet and natural, the five calamities of heaven and earth, novels are nonsense."
"There are wonderful things in the heaven and the earth. Qiang said that the way is the way. It is popular among all the Xia. I also command it to be the first of the Yuan Dynasty and the king of all laws. It is mysterious and mysterious. There is a wonderful existence in the vacuum. There is a vacuum in the wonderful world. It is the light of a little bit of the true sun in the innate world."
"Although it is solid, it gathers and disperses as one wishes, and is illusory and rotating. It is quite natural and has a common interpretation!"
Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly, and responded to Ji Yanran.
The reality of reality, life and death, is the impermanence of the great road. When it comes to this matter, you can do it because you are good at it, so why should you be afraid? However, compared to the famous family Dun Weak, the Yin Yang family Ji Yanran has not yet heard any real trouble.
arrival.
"Wonderful!"
"Gathering and dispersing at will, illusory rotation, quite in line with nature!"
After the exploration, Ji Yanran stood up leisurely, bowed around her, and with a high-pitched voice, walked down the platform and returned to her seat.
"How wonderful, gathering and dispersing as you please, illusory rotation, quite in line with nature!"
Not long after, there was a burst of admiration and echoes from all around. Listening to the words of Taoist Xuan Qingzi, everyone present had a new understanding of Taoism's ideas. He is indeed a person who has become famous in recent years.
Under the high platform, Song Que, Yin Zhong, Xiao Ling and others also spoke loudly with words of praise. Both arguments were victorious, and the momentum was gradually building up. I don't know who will come on stage next to argue.
"I am sleeping on the road of the Mo family. I dare to ask Xuan Qingzi. The Tao is always inactive. It transcends ordinary life and death, and everything in the world is like a passing cloud. Why is it that you are the true king of Daowu in the Qin Dynasty, killing hundreds of disciples many times, and doing evil to all Xia?"
After a few breaths, suddenly, a middle-aged man in black and white linen clothes stood up and walked onto the high platform. Without bowing down to take a seat, he bowed around, turned to Zhou Qing, and asked softly.
