Chapter two hundred and sixty-six on the argument against the truth
After reading Gan Bai's comments, the monk was dumbfounded for a moment, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. He thought for a while, turned back to find Liang Yi, considered his words, and said cautiously: "Fellow Taoist Liang, it seems that Taoshi
Seniors have different opinions on this Taoist book."
Liang Yi said in a deep voice: "How did this senior review this book?"
The monk hesitated and said, "It's hard to say. Fellow Taoist Liang will know after he goes and takes a look."
When Liang Yi heard what he said, he knew that Taoshi must not have a high opinion of this book. He found the talisman of "Taoshi" again, focused his mind on it, and a curtain of light unfolded in front of him.
He looked up and saw that the whole Taoist book was written there, with only one comment below and no extra words above. It seemed that he looked down on this Taoist book and didn't even bother to say a word.
After reading it, he didn't feel any annoyance. Instead, he carefully considered the comments and combined them with what he had just studied. He couldn't help but close his eyes and sit there and think deeply.
After a long time, he opened his eyes again, and then he found the colleague just now, and said in a deep voice: "This senior is right. Although this book is profound and mysterious, I am not qualified to read it. If I have to,
If you look at it all, it will only get deeper and deeper, and it will deviate from the right path."
Seeing his attitude, the monk was a little puzzled and said: "Fellow Daoist Liang, I see that this book does make some sense..."
Liang Yi said: "It also depends on what kind of truth it is. If a truth can be used by me, it is just truth to me. If it is too high and far away, it is not of much use to me. Anyway, it is not in my immediate way, so that
What is said in Taoist books is just for Taoist friends to read and don’t take it too seriously.”
He didn't say a word. If this book was simply about Taoism, that would be fine. But after being clarified in one sentence, it seems like it is deliberately misleading people into getting lost in it.
But this is just a subtle feeling, and he has no concrete evidence. Because of this, he now has a little more suspicion about Yan Ruijiang.
The monk thought for a moment and said, "What Fellow Daoist Liang said makes some sense."
Liang Yi knew that he just didn't want to quarrel with her, so he followed his own words, but he didn't actually give up.
But he can also understand, isn't he also trapped in it? Seeing that the great truth is right in front of him, how many people can give up? Even if someone points out the flaws in it, it will be wrong if he doesn't give it a try.
How can you be willing?
This problem can only be solved from the root cause. He thought for a while, withdrew from the Great Dao Chapter, explained to the disciples on duty, and left the Xuan Mansion.
However, even though he left, Xun Tian Daozhang never calmed down.
Gan Bai is now considered a celebrity, and his every move attracts the attention of many people. And since he put the entire Taoist book in the talisman, many people will naturally be able to see it.
This Taoist book indeed involves many mysterious principles, and its brilliance lies in the fact that it always gives you the illusion that if you study it deeply, you can find the real answer. Even a person with a profound foundation like Liang Yi
Once they get caught up in it, most people really don’t have the vision to make a correct judgment.
Therefore, many people disagree with Gan Bai's views after reading it.
They all thought that it clearly contained a lot of truths and was quite inspiring, so how could it be devalued and deemed worthless? These people directly questioned Gamble's judgment.
But there are also some people who agree with Gan Bai's judgment. They say that Senior Momo always has something to say and never talks nonsense. If he says so, it must be reasonable, and there are actually some clear-headed people who have read the comments.
When I looked back and read it again, I found that this book was full of useless truths.
People on both sides were dissatisfied and started arguing below, but gradually the majority of people believed that this book was useful, and some directly left their own rebuttals under the talisman, and as these people became more and more
The more there are, the louder the rebuttal voices become.
Gan Bai faced a flood of refutations, but he kept his face high and dismissed them. Not only did he write down his refutations of Taoism, but he also responded with a sentence of criticism to each one.
One of them seemed to be a kind-hearted person, pretending to be impartial, and asked him not to act casually. He immediately said: "Every word is pretentious, and there is more saliva than ink";
Others ignored the truths listed in front of him and instead questioned whether he was refuting for the sake of refuting. He directly said: "Pretending to be confused because you know something is either stupid or bad. I advise you to go back and take a look and see if you can close the door when you come out."
His comments were sarcastic and heart-wrenching, making people really angry.
Because what he said is indeed reasonable. Some people are not cultivated enough to refute, and even invited fellow true practitioners to come over and try to refute him. However, Gan Bai faced everyone by himself, but he was not at a disadvantage at all. This movement
It is also getting bigger and bigger.
Yan Ruijiang also noticed the excitement in the Xuntian Taoist Chapter at this time. He saw that they were arguing about the Taoist book. He was not surprised. When he gave the thing away, he expected that it would eventually be used.
Sent to Xuntian Daozhang for discussion.
However, he was not worried at all, because if the Taoist book had not told him in advance that there was a problem, even he himself felt that the book could guide him into Taoism, so he did not think that anyone except Xuanzun could understand it. At a certain level,
After Xuan Xiu learned about this book, he would not be able to help reading it unless Xuan Zun came forward to ban it.
But it's better to ban it. He can also spread it privately, which will attract more people.
In fact, the person who entrusted him with this Taoist book not only gave him the Taoist book, but also told him some things, including how to refute if he was questioned.
Seeing these comments left by Gan Bo, he laughed a few times and decided to add fuel to the fire. Following the instructions in the book, he wrote down the set of things and finally looked at them himself.
Nodding with satisfaction.
Not long after, a sentence was sent to him, so he took it with a smile, but when he took a look, his face froze, and he saw that it read:
"The truth is clearly in front of you, but you pretend not to see it!"
"He stirs things up to cause trouble, but he doesn't dare to speak loudly."
"How can it be that you don't have any evil intentions in your heart? You look like a traitor!"
After Yan Ruijiang saw it, he felt angry in his heart and his fingers trembled.
But while he was angry and annoyed, he also had a hint of fear. Although it seemed that Gan Bo just made a casual accusation, it made him feel guilty in his heart. He was also secretly annoyed. This was unfounded. Why?
Call him a traitor?
When the two sides were quarreling, someone sent this sentence to Taoist Wanming for advice.
Taoist Wanming was preaching at first, so he didn't pay attention to this matter. But now he saw more than one person asking him to evaluate this Taoist book. Then he paid attention and found Gan Bai's talisman. After reading it, he was convinced.
He commented: "These things do not touch the sky or the earth, and are completely useless for practice. Although Tao Shi's words are fierce, he is right.
When his evaluation came out, people who were waiting for him to say that this book was good were nothing more than a basin of cold water, and those who held a negative attitude were greatly encouraged.
Others may speak nonsense, but Taoist Wanming himself is Xuanzun. In addition, he has been explaining Taoism in the Taoist Chapter of Training Heaven, and he does not shy away from simple principles. Many Taoists regard him as
As a teacher, what he says is naturally more convincing.
And this controversy was settled.
Yan Ruijiang originally thought that this dispute would last for a long time and that the Taoism would spread as a result, but he did not expect that Xuan Zun would end up in person, and he was caught off guard for a moment.
I was also very dissatisfied, thinking secretly that you are Xuan Zun, you should be aloof, why don't you care about your identity at all?
He thought about it, but fortunately it was just a Taoist book that was refuted. He would keep taking out various Taoist books when he came down, but he didn't believe that he would bump into Xuan Zun every time.
It's just that he was poked by Gan Bo before and felt extremely weak, so he didn't dare to take it out in a hurry, but he didn't stop his little moves.
He wrote a secret letter full of code words.
The content of this letter is to ask people to try to spread the news in the Taoist Chapter of Xuntian, saying that the truth may not be as what Wanmingxuanzun said, but this book is based on true cultivation. Although Wanmingxuanzun advocates reading Taoist books, it can
Most of them have been compiled by Xuan Xiu. If Wan Ming Xuan Zun comes from a sect’s point of view, it is possible that he may have biases against certain books. Cultivators must make their own judgments. Only by reading them will they know whether they are useful or not.
After writing it, he sent the secretary's instructions out, then quit the Xuntian Daozhang and went to meditate alone.
Two days later, when he was reading a book, he suddenly felt something. He walked out from the high platform and saw Liang Yi standing on the steps outside. He was slightly startled, but with a smile on his face, he said: "Fellow Taoist Liang,
Why are you here? Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"
Liang Yi said in a deep voice: "I just finished reading the Taoist book, so I came here to return it this time."
Yan Ruijiang sighed and said, "Just read this book slowly. Why return it in such a hurry? Fellow Taoist Liang, please come inside."
Liang Yi nodded and followed him in.
When they arrived at the stage, the two of them sat down separately as guest and host.
Liang Yi took out the Taoist book, put it on the table, and said: "Fellow Taoist, in order to ask for Taoist teachings, I showed the Taoist book on the Xuntian Daozhang for people to see, but it attracted a lot of people to watch. What I want to do here is
I apologize to my fellow Taoist."
Yan Ruijiang smiled and said: "What am I talking about? It doesn't matter. The Taoist books are for people to read, and I don't understand the meaning. Taoist friends will show them to more Taoist friends, so that you can find them together."
The truth is, how can I blame fellow Taoist for this?"
Liang Yi nodded and said, "I just want to ask a Taoist friend, where does this Taoist book come from?"
Yan Ruijiang smiled and said: "I told my Taoist friend before that it was fate, but it's hard to say the details."
Liang Yi said in a deep voice: "My Taoist friend gave me the Taoist book, do you really want to discuss Taoism with me?"
Yan Ruijiang looked at him and said in surprise: "Why do fellow Taoists say this?"
Liang Yi took out a letter from his sleeve and placed it on the table. He pressed it with his fingers and slowly pushed it forward. He raised his eyes and stared at him and said, "Do you remember this letter?"
