Chapter Eight hundred and forty-six 'Tai Shang Qing Jing Jing'
"Sir, is this the document issued by the king?"
In Tianshui City, Zhou Qing has been waiting quietly, but... after waiting for two months, the news from Beidi County remains the same. It has always been like this, but the news from Tianshui Chamber of Commerce keeps coming.
This gave Zhou Qing a clear understanding of the situation west of the river.
To the west of the river, the countries that bear the brunt are the Wusun Kingdom and the Yuezhi Kingdom. The Yueshi Kingdom is to the north, and the Wusun Kingdom is to the south. These two powerful countries control the route from the two counties of Longxi to the west.
The Chamber of Commerce operates through it, and a lot of money is turned in each time. Now Qianhong and the others have gained quite a lot in the country of Wusun. A large amount of money and things have been scattered, and now they are sure to persuade Wusun not to participate.
On the other hand, the country of the Yuezhi, which the Mohist giant Lu Zhenlang went to, was quite repulsive to the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce and had very close ties with the Xiongnu. As expected, the Yuezhi must have had different intentions. As Qin and Zhao began to fight, troops and horses were already mobilizing.
.
Soon, it will go south soon.
In the side hall, Zhou Qing was sitting on a soft table. Beside him was Xue Ji, who was dressed in a thin sapphire blue skirt and shirt. Her hair was as white as snow and her hair was flowing down. Over the past few months, she had become even more charming.
Cook tea with bare hands and prepare it quietly.
Yun Shu walked in from the door, also holding an urgent document in his hand, which came from Beidi County.
"Yes, there was a little incident in Xianyang, but it has nothing to do with me."
Zhou Qing nodded, finished his words, and the document in his hand turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace.
There is not much useful information in the document, but the king mentioned the current situation in Xianyang, the current situation of the war between Qin and Zhao, and the condition of the Empress Dowager Huayang, but other than that, there is nothing else.
In the document, Mrs. Chu wanted to return to Xianyang to diagnose and treat Empress Dowager Huayang, but reading between the lines, Zhou Qing had clearly understood what the king meant, smiled slightly, and did not interfere.
If she intervened herself, Queen Mother Huayang could indeed increase her longevity, but why did she do this?
Although Mrs. Chu has a high status, she still cannot command herself.
"This is an urgent document from Zhang Han. Sir, I'm afraid there is something going on with the Huns."
Yun Shuxiu nodded lightly. Staying in Tianshui City for several months was really boring. Fortunately, with the young master by his side, he didn't notice it. But it would be better if he could change to a different environment.
Holding a document in his hand, he took a step closer and presented it on the bill.
“Expedited paperwork!”
Zhou Qing also nodded. It should be about this time. It is early summer now, when the horses on the Xiongnu side and the Yueshi side are both strong. If we wait any longer, it will be autumn.
At that time, the vegetation was withered and yellow, which was not a good time for the Xiongnu.
With a wave of his hand, he picked up the document on the bill. When he opened it and took a closer look, Zhou Qing's eyes lit up.
"Yunshu, go and prepare. We will go to Beidi County the day after tomorrow!"
After reading the document in his hand, a faint purple mysterious light flashed in the depths of Zhou Qing's eyes, and after a few breaths, he issued an order.
"Yes, sir."
Yun Shu also had a sweet smile on his face and bowed.
"Sir, is there going to be a war?"
Xue Ji holds a jasper teacup in both hands, with each leaf inside floating and floating, which makes the teacup look even more impressive. Before she drinks it, a hint of fragrance spreads out.
Crisp and soft voice, beautiful eyes twinkling.
"Yes, a war is about to begin. After this battle, we can return to Xianyang. As for the next Xiongnu invasion, the strength of Mengtian Jiuyuan Camp is enough to deal with it."
"I can also cultivate myself steadily to realize the opportunity of joining the Tao!"
He took the jasper tea cup and took a sip, his lips and teeth were filled with fragrance. It was easy to win the battle between Qin and Zhao, but it was not so easy to completely defeat the Zhao State in one fell swoop.
Zhou Qing was also aware of Wang Jian's marching strategy, and was probably waiting for the opportunity to annihilate the main force of the Zhao army in one fell swoop. Then the three armies would move together to completely drive the Zhao state into a place of no return.
If the State of Zhao is destroyed, only the State of Wei will remain in the land of the Three Jins. In the past, the State of Wei was destroyed by Wang Ben. I don’t know if it will be the same this time.
All in all, I have nothing to do, and it is exactly what Zhou Qing wanted. In recent months, I have merged with heaven and earth and realized the truth. After all, I am still missing the last level and the last step.
"Sir, where was Shuicheng that day?"
Yun Shu was curious. Now that Tianshui City was built, the profits of the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce were also huge. If they all left, who would stay here to handle various things.
"It's just a few foreign objects, it's nothing."
Zhou Qing smiled hoarsely. The property was enough for him. As long as he was still a marquis, would Tianshui Shang be fine? Moreover, he was also curious about who would dare to intervene?
"Then when we go to Beidi County, should we go to Yiqu County City, or to Jingyuan and other border towns?"
Yun Shu was curious. In Beidi County, Yiqu County was close to Guanzhong, which was far away from the border. Jingyuan and other border towns were also very close. If a war broke out, it would be much more convenient.
"What do you think?"
While waving, the tea cup in his hand gently fell on the table. Looking at Xue Ji, who was getting more and more outstanding in appearance, he played with the soft white tea with one hand and sniffed it gently. It had a sweet fragrance.
"By the way, sir, there was news from a Taoist in Xianyang two days ago that the "Tribulation of Heaven and Man" is about to end. Is there any follow-up information?"
Hearing this, Yun Shu already had the answer in his heart. He chuckled and was about to leave, but suddenly he thought of something. There are a hundred chapters in "The Tribulation of Heaven and Man" written by the young master, and now they are almost gone.
I don’t know if the young master will have any follow-up words next.
"Of course there is!"
"It's just..., the babble has been spread a lot. In the summer, it is enough for everyone to listen to what I say, but... the babble does not enter the Dao. I came here to sort out what I have understood, and I got an article "Tai Shang Chang"
"The Sutra on Purity and Tranquility".
"This sutra can be understood by me. Although it is not a method of practice, it can be the essence of Taoism and can be passed down by hundreds of schools."
There are five tribulations in the world. More than ten years ago, before going down the mountain, I had "The Creation of Heaven and Earth", "The Tribulation of Longhan"... and other nonsense came out, which seemed useless, but in fact they sorted out the foundation of Taoism.
It lays the foundation for the inheritance of Taoists in future generations. It is not that easy for anything with a system and theory to die out.
Now that the "Tribulation of Heaven and Man" has ended, it is revealed that the Five Tribulations of Heaven and Earth have ceased to exist, and the nonsense can come to an end. The power of counting at the Mystic Gate has reached tens of millions. It has been growing very slowly recently, and it should have reached an extreme soon.
I have also explored a lot about the function of the power of counting, which is amazing.
But when it comes to breaking through to the Hedao level, it's a little bit worse.
With his words lingering in his mouth, Zhou Qing waved his hand and found a scroll of bamboo slips on the shelf on the wall of the side hall, which was not written on paper.
"Copy two volumes and send them to Xianyang and Tianzong headquarters!"
Pointing to the note, I had to pick up a scroll of bamboo slips, and I wrote all the words one by one.
"The Sutra of Taishang Changlun on Qingjing"
"Yes, sir."
Yun Shu muttered something in his mouth. Listening to its name, it sounded a bit like a classic work passed down by Taoists. It should be a work of principles. After taking the volume from the case, it gradually became very brand new.
Untying the string and opening it with both hands, speaking of it, I have rarely touched bamboo slips for several years.
"The Supreme Being said: 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 the Tao. The Taoist: There is purity and turbidity, there is movement and there is stillness. Heaven
The earth is pure and turbid, the sky is moving and the earth is still. The male is pure and the female is turbid, the male is moving and the female is still. The original flow is reduced to the end, and all things are born."
"Purity is the source of turbidity, movement is the basis of tranquility. If a person can always be pure, heaven and earth will return. Madam, the spirit likes to be pure, but the heart is disturbed. The human heart likes to be quiet, and wants to be involved. It can always drive away its desires...
….”
"Those who can understand can teach the holy way."
This scroll of bamboo slips belonged to a large group and stretched out slowly. There were hundreds of words on it. Yun Shu whispered in his mouth and frowned slightly, slightly confused.
Maybe what Young Master wrote is too profound.
"Sir, this method is quite consistent with the Taoist philosophy of tranquility. If spread, will it benefit hundreds of schools of thought?"
Xue Ji is now at the peak of her spiritual cultivation. She has a quiet nature. She has learned a lot by staying by Zhou Qing's side. When she heard Sister Yunshu's words, her eyes flashed with a different kind of mysterious light, and her whole body spread with a different kind of light.
breath.
"A drop of water exists between heaven and earth, how can it not dry up?"
Hearing this, Zhou Qing smiled, pointed a finger, and a drop of tea flew out of the cup, floating on the palm of his hand. He looked at the imperceptible drop of water and asked with a smile.
"Ice it!"
The red lips opened slightly, and as Xue Ji waved her hand, a chill passed through the adult's palm, and a force of ice sealed the drop of water.
"Is it the same as ice, or water?"
While breathing, looking at the ice crystal on his hand, Zhou Qing asked again.
"With the strength of an adult, it should be possible."
Xue Ji pursed her lips and smiled. As she waved her hand, the ice crystal on the adult's hand returned to its previous watery state.
"Hahaha, a drop of water is insignificant, but if it melts into a cup, into a river, into the sea, it can become as holy as the heaven. How can it be destroyed in this way?"
"Even if the state of water rotates, it will remain water after all."
Zhou Qing smiled brightly, vigorously, and the drop of water on his palm fell into the cup. For hundreds of years, Taoist classics have been preserved by hundreds of schools, including Confucianism, Mohism, and farmers.
Everything has a shadow.
The heaven and earth belong to Yin and Yang, and when there is still chaos, Taoism is no exception, but Taoism also has a different way of survival.
