Volume 2 Fengqi Anxi Mansion Chapter 145: Give Words Shoucheng
Old double standard!
Dean Bai originally wanted to recruit Lu Jiuzhang into Anxi Academy.
Now it seems that there is no such chance.
"Master Xu is here, Lu Jiuzhang kowtows!"
Lu Jiuzhang hurriedly knelt down and bowed to Master Xu as a disciple.
If a great Confucian is a teacher, his future is limitless.
"Ahem..."
Master Xu didn't react for a while. He thought Lu Jiuzhang would think about it for a while, but he didn't expect that he agreed without even thinking about it.
"Ahem...get up, there's no need to be polite."
Master Xu raised his hand.
An inexplicable force helped Lu Jiuzhang stand up.
"There are three thousand avenues, all of which have inheritance. Let me tell you about our lineage first." Master Xu said slowly, "In the last years of the previous dynasty, the people were in dire straits and felt that the world was difficult. At the foot of Heron Mountain, a scholar followed Taizu.
Conquering the east and west, a single message is worth thousands of troops."
"During Taizu's Western Expedition, the scholars reached the seventh level of Confucianism and Taoism. During Taizu's southern expedition, the scholars broke through to the fifth level of Confucianism and Taoism... By the time Taizu established great achievements, the scholars had reached the semi-sage level of Confucianism and Taoism."
"Taizu respected him as the Imperial Master and ordered all academies in the world to erect statues of the Imperial Master to suppress the luck of Confucianism and to guide future generations of Confucian students. Later generations respectfully call him the Heron lineage."
"One hundred and seventy years later, the Heron lineage of scholars was the leader and involved in the internal affairs of the Zhou Dynasty. Under the anger of the Holy Emperor, the Heron lineage was suppressed one after another and was unable to raise its head."
"The statues of the ancestors of the Heron lineage in each academy have been knocked down."
"Among the various branches of Confucianism and Taoism, the Heron lineage has become increasingly insignificant. By the time of the late emperor, there were very few people left in the Heron lineage. When I was young, I traveled around the world and accidentally entered the foot of Heron Mountain. I was impressed by the magnificent ideas of the first emperor.
, follow the heron lineage."
"Later, I practiced quietly at the foot of Heron Mountain for more than ten years. When I first entered the capital, I shocked the Jingzhao Mansion with a seven-character quatrain. Then I borrowed a parallel prose and became famous in the Zhou Dynasty."
"Before the Zhumen, there was an endless stream of people visiting. I still studied poetry and books hard, and a few years later, I became a great scholar. The late emperor felt Yu's talent and hired Yu as his imperial teacher to teach the new emperor knowledge."
"When the new emperor ascended the throne and respected me as the emperor's master, all of a sudden, the Heron lineage appeared in front of the world again."
Master Xu recalled the past, and decades passed by in a blink of an eye.
"Many scholars wanted to become my disciples, but their qualifications were too poor, so I rejected them one by one. Among them, there were many high-ranking officials and nobles, but I still showed no mercy."
"Over the years, I have had a total of eight disciples, all of whom are famous Confucian scholars in Jingzhao Mansion. The strongest one is close to being a semi-Confucian and has my style. The worst one has been mediocre for half his life and is still only at the ninth level of Confucianism and Taoism!"
"Lu Sheng, what kind of success can you achieve? There is a limit to how much my teacher can help you. It still depends on yourself!"
"The sage said, Master leads me in. Cultivation depends on oneself."
Master Xu looked at Lu Jiuzhang and said, "Today, I give you the words, "Restrain yourself in reason, and be sincere in your heart. This sincerity is not sincerity, but refers to sincerity, sincerity in heart, perfect deeds, and good deeds in heart! You are called Shou."
Be sincere!"
Honesty?
These are the words given by Master Xu.
Lu Jiuzhang, whose courtesy name is Shoucheng, can also be called Lu Shoucheng!
"Thank you sir!"
Lu Jiuzhang said respectfully.
"Without courtesy, you should be my student. You should be careful and independent. You should practice hard. The sea of books is vast and endless. My life has a limit, but my knowledge has no limit. It's almost impossible to follow the limitless. It's almost impossible to be a knower.
That’s it!”
Master Xu said, "Although I am a teacher, I can only help you in a limited way. Dean Bai, bring me pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"
Hearing this, Dean Bai immediately understood what he meant.
He has a lot of pens, inks, papers and inkstones here.
After a while, Dean Bai brought a table and spread a piece of plain paper ten feet wide and thirty feet long on it.
Dean Bai polished the ink himself, and Master Xu took up the pen and wrote a line of words on the plain paper - "It is difficult to read a lot, and it is difficult to think clearly. If you are not enough, you will not learn, and if you are studying, you will not be able to do it."
With a quick stroke of the pen, a piece of calligraphy was completed.
A faint white light, Confucian destiny shrouds the plain paper.
Each word seemed to come alive.
Master Xu did not stop. Dean Bai took the plain paper away and put it aside to dry. Master Xu continued to write, "One flute and one sword will bring down the business, and I will live up to my reputation for fifteen years."
When the pen stopped, there were flashes of swords and swords all around.
The sword energy was so fierce that Lu Jiuzhang felt the skin all over his body sting.
Even those who are in the seventh or even sixth level of martial arts may not be able to survive under the light and shadow of this sword.
Master Xu took out a seal from his arms and covered it on the plain paper.
The light and shadow of the sword seemed to be suppressed by the seal, and dispersed quietly, remaining on the plain paper.
"This calligraphy can subjugate demons and eliminate demons." Master Xu said slowly, "If you encounter danger in the future, with this calligraphy, those below the fifth level of martial arts will have no chance of survival."
"Between the third and fifth levels of martial arts, serious injuries are difficult to treat!"
"Although there is no seal on the first piece of characters, my life's understanding of Confucianism and Taoism is hidden between the lines. If you can understand them all, you can reach the realm of great Confucianism. If you can surpass it, you may become a semi-sage!"
Half-sage of Confucianism and Taoism, that is the realm of the ancestors of the Heron Mountain lineage.
From generation to generation, no one has set foot on Half-Saint.
In the entire Zhou Dynasty, there was no semi-saint on the surface.
This state has reached heaven and human beings.
…
When Lu Jiuzhang left Anxi Academy, he gained a lot.
Back at [Yingtian Restaurant], Bai Xiaosu and Da Hei Gou had returned and were eating together downstairs.
Lu Jiuzhang sat beside the two of them.
Feeling Lu Jiuzhang's aura, the big black dog couldn't help but ask, "Master Jiu, have you made another breakthrough?"
"Um!"
Lu Jiuzhang nodded slightly.
"Gan! No, how long has it been?"
The big black dog is shocked!
It is a mythical beast that carries the destiny of heaven and earth.
But its breakthrough speed is far inferior to Lu Jiuzhang.
Could it be that Lu Jiuzhang is the divine beast, inheriting the destiny of heaven and earth?
Damn it, dogs are better than humans, dogs are so angry!
The big black dog was not angry, but Bai Xiaosu was a little calm, "Is it a breakthrough in martial arts?"
She knew that Lu Jiuzhang had broken through the eighth level of martial arts before.
I didn’t expect how long it would take before I had another breakthrough.
"Confucianism and Taoism break through the eighth level!"
Lu Jiuzhang said slowly.
He studied Confucianism, Taoism and Martial Arts, all of which reached the eighth level.
At that time, many people were not optimistic about Lu Jiuzhang and felt that he was biting off more than he could chew.
Now it can be considered as a favorable counterattack to those who are not optimistic!
It is really extraordinary to be able to reach this level by practicing both Confucianism and Wushu.
…
After finishing their meal, several people planned to go upstairs to rest. When they just went upstairs, several men walked towards them.
These men, Lu Jiuzhang, looked familiar. It was during dinner in the morning, and the people sitting next to them were shouting that they wanted to rob tombs and touch gold. If they don't open for three years, they will eat for three years if they open!
Lu Jiuzhang did not dare to compliment their approach.
Of course, Lu Jiuzhang will not stop it, there is no need.
Being in [Yingtian Restaurant] is just to avoid trouble, so why add trouble in vain!
