Chapter 301 Confucius, the Confucian Sage, and the Hundred Schools of Thought
A few years later, the human world was in turmoil again. A vast breath rushed straight into the sky, competing with the sky, competing with the sun and the moon. The world was eclipsed, and a righteous spirit rose to the sky.
At the same time, a voice full of righteousness and unyielding faith in humanity came out. The voice was full of justice and righteousness, resounding throughout the world:
"The king cherishes virtue, the villain cherishes land; the king cherishes punishment, the villain cherishes favor. The gentleman is open and honest, the villain is always sad... If the king abandons benevolence, how can he become famous?"
"The wise man enjoys water, the benevolent man enjoys mountains."
"If a man is not trustworthy, he does not know what he can do."
"Say what you say, and do what you do."
"Learning without thinking is useless, thinking without learning is dangerous."
"Be quick and studious, and do not be ashamed to ask questions."
"Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you."
"..."
Boom!
In the human world, a huge momentum rushed into the sky. This momentum has nothing to do with cultivation, as if it emanates from the depths of a person's heart and soul. At the moment this momentum appeared, it completely covered the surrounding space, and a huge voice continued to sound in this momentum.
"The heaven and earth have righteousness, which is mixed and flowing. Below it is the river and the mountain, and above it is the sun and the stars. In people, it is called Haoran, which is full of the sky. The emperor's road should be light and flat, and the court should be harmonious and bright. When the time is difficult, the loyalty will be revealed, and each one will be recorded in red and blue."
As these chants sounded, the momentum between heaven and earth suddenly became stronger, and the face of this momentum was completely revealed. This is a breath that has long existed in the prehistoric world but no one has discovered and used it. This is Haoran righteousness, which exists between heaven and earth and is everywhere.
At the same time, this momentum also alarmed many great gods in the prehistoric world. The gods explored and found that the one who emitted this momentum was Confucius from the Lu State of the human race, and also the reincarnation of the good corpse of Kong Xuan of the Chan Sect.
In an instant, the gods calculated Confucius' life experience and life experience.
It turns out that Confucius was a nobleman, a descendant of the royal family of the Shang Dynasty, and a descendant of Wei Ziqi, the brother of King Zhou. When Confucius was born, he was ugly and strange, and was abandoned in the wilderness. The weather was hot, and a goshawk descended and flapped its wings to fan him to drive away the heat. A tigress took him into the tiger's den and fed him with tiger milk, which allowed him to survive.
Later, the tigress returned Confucius to Confucius' mother, who took good care of him.
Unfortunately, Confucius' mother was a concubine with a very low status, and Confucius was driven out by his father and wife when he was young.
Confucius was very poor when he was a teenager, so he could do a lot of rough work to support himself.
Confucius was very ordinary when he was young, but his dream was to hope that he could become an official one day and help the country. Unfortunately, the State of Lu never valued him.
Confucius did not give up. He founded a private school and taught students. He believed that people were not divided into noble and humble, and everyone had the opportunity to receive education. People's personality would be affected by the external environment. Only by receiving education can people be guided to the right path.
Confucius accepted 3,000 disciples in his lifetime, including 72 wise men such as Yan Hui, and the name of Confucius gradually spread.
Later, there was civil strife in Lu, and Confucius was suspected. Helplessly, he had to take his disciples to travel around the countries for 13 years. He suffered a lot along the way, and passed through Wei, Chen, Cao, Chu, Song, Zheng, Wu and other countries, and finally returned to Lu.
In his old age, Confucius returned to Lu to serve as an official. He was a rare high-ranking official, but he resigned because he was squeezed out by other officials.
After resigning, Confucius revised the "Book of Songs", "Book of History", "Book of Rites" and "Book of Music", and wrote a preface for Zhou Wenwang's "Book of Changes".
Finally, Confucius personally wrote the "Spring and Autumn Annals". Once this book was completed, his talent was eliminated, the sky was full of flowers, the stars were shining, the clouds were thousands of miles away, the thunder was roaring, and the world was shaken.
It was at this moment.
Under the attention of the gods of prehistoric times, Confucius had a serious expression, and his aura soared into the sky, connecting heaven and earth. The thunder in the sky kept roaring, giving people the feeling that it was going to destroy everything. The aura on Confucius was similar to it, and was also extremely upright, but different. In this bright and upright aura, there was a feeling of submission from the bottom of one's heart.
"Humph!"
Facing the destructive thunder in the sky, Confucius snorted coldly, raised his hand lightly, waved his sleeves back, and the whole person straightened up, chanting loudly: "It is the majestic aura, which lasts forever. When it penetrates the sun and the moon, life and death are not worth talking about! The earth depends on it to stand, the pillar of heaven depends on it to be respected, the three cardinal guides are life, and morality is the root!"
"The heaven and earth are vast, and the righteousness lasts forever. I don't ask to kill the immortals, but I want to kill the ghosts and gods!"
Kongqiu walked into the void step by step, facing the thunder. He held the "Spring and Autumn Book" in his left hand and the "Spring and Autumn Pen" in his right hand. Seeing the endless thunder in the sky, he was still not afraid and shouted loudly.
The thunder of heaven and earth became more violent. Confucius picked up the pen, and the wind and clouds surged. The sky and the earth changed color. The Spring and Autumn pen wrote nine "slash" characters in succession. Each word and sword turned into nine sharp and righteous sword lights, rushed into the thunder, and cut the boundless thunder into ten pieces.
Then, Confucius threw the "Spring and Autumn" book in his hand. The "Spring and Autumn Book" instantly became larger, covering the sky for 30,000 miles. The big book moved, and all the thunder was extinguished and smashed.
"I am Confucius of the human race. I am fortunate to understand the literary way of the ancestor of literature and walk out of the great Confucianism. Today I set up Confucianism. In the future, I will set my mind for heaven and earth, set my destiny for the people, inherit the unique knowledge of the past saints, and open peace for all generations!"
"Confucianism, set up!"
With Confucius' last shout, the sky and the earth were bright, and the stars swayed. Then, a golden light of merit fell from the sky and fell on Confucius. His Confucianism continued to grow, and finally he reached the second sage of Confucianism, and then stopped.
Confucius has the sun, moon, mountains and rivers in his heart, a mind full of the vastness of heaven and earth, and a literary and creative spirit. His every move is filled with the majesty of a sage.
"Confucius, the Confucian saint!"
"Confucius, the Confucian saint!"
"Confucius..."
The people were shocked and knelt down in front of Confucius, exclaiming that Confucius should be the Confucian saint.
Confucius founded Confucianism, and the most qualified person to be called "Zi" should be Confucius.
Later, Confucius founded the first academy, Qufu Academy, recruited students and taught Confucianism.
"Confucianism has created a great way of cultivation, and this great way is like martial arts, which is most suitable for human cultivation. The human race is indeed full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons."
"Confucius, Confucianism, another school is rising, which school will be next?"
"Kong Xuan of the Chanjiao is even more powerful. Shanshi has walked out a path, and he is probably not far from breaking through."
"..."
In the world, the gods talked a lot, all praising Confucius' words. At the same time, they were more interested in the people of other schools.
In Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi nodded secretly. He had seen Kong Xuan's performance, which was very good. Now he was the one with the highest cultivation among all the disciples of the Chan Sect, even Guangchengzi could not compare with him.
In the ancestral land of the human race, in the Wen Palace, Wenzu Cangjie also laughed a lot. Since Wenzu realized the Wen Dao, no one has been able to practice Wen Dao to such a level, let alone innovation. Now Confucius has walked out another path in his Wen Dao, which is what he wants to see.
The stronger the human race is, the happier he is.
"Confucius is a good person!"
A few years later, Mozi, who advocated "universal love and non-aggression", appeared and established the Mohist School. The Mohist School even created a hand of exquisite mechanical art. Whether it is for civilian use or war, the mechanical art is extremely suitable for the human race, saving people's energy and creating a precedent for science and technology.
At the same time, those who inherited the Shennong Dihuang made friends with farmers all over the world, taught them the experience of reclaiming wasteland and planting agriculture, and established a farming family.
Then, the Yin-Yang School, who believed that "the great way is Yin and Yang, the Wuji Taiyi", and who studied all the oppositions and mutual transformations between heaven and earth with the art of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, appeared. The doctors who "healed the world" appeared, and the famous scholars who focused on debating "name" and "reality" appeared, and were famous for their "sophistry".
Later, the Legalists, who "did not distinguish between relatives and strangers, and did not distinguish between noble and humble, and decided by law", and shocked the world with "art", "law" and "power", appeared. The Legalists' Master was even a peerless master, who used the Legalists' criminal law to determine the laws of the world. When fighting, it seemed like God's help. He could use the power of heaven and earth to turn the world into a cage, gather the power of thunder for judgment, and gather the power of killing gods for punishment. He held the laws of heaven and earth, and was unparalleled in the world!
At the same time as the Legalists, there appeared the mysterious and unpredictable Zongheng School. The reason why the Zongheng School was said to be mysterious was that Guiguzi only came out to establish the Zongheng School and shouted the domineering slogan "The people are in chaos, the world is in chaos. Among the hundreds of schools of thought, only I am a Zongheng", and then disappeared, so it made people feel mysterious.
Later, the eclectic school of thought that "combined Confucianism and Mohism, and combined legalism" appeared, and then there were "hundreds of schools" of thought of all sizes, but most of them were not as powerful as the previous ones.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the princes fought for hegemony, and the various schools of thought rebelled against the world!
A great era of "thousands of horses galloping and hundreds of flowers blooming" with hundreds of schools of thought contending is slowly opening its mysterious corner to the world.
