Chapter 354 Asking Yu Xu Zi (Please Subscribe! Please Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
Most of the Mohists in the land of Qilu belong to the lineage of the Xiangfu family. They mainly focus on debates and teach the Mohist thought of universal love.
I hope that peace can be achieved in a gentle way, and I am opposed to using violence to solve problems.
However, Lingguo's attitude of focusing on people's livelihood and learning is quite to their liking.
Not to mention anything else, they greatly agreed with Lingqing's idea of setting up an experimental project to prove his own ideas.
In addition to these two schools, there are other schools of thought that hold the same idea and want to use Lingming Academy as the foundation to promote their own theories.
Especially those elementary schools that have not made their mark in Jixia Academy put their hopes here.
Of course, after facing numerous Taoist classics, Taoists and Yin-Yang Schools also deeply realized which school Lingqing tends to favor.
Therefore, the two families will naturally not let go of this Lingguo and Linggong who have mature classics.
Not to mention these things, since Xu Xing became the prime minister of Ming Ji.
He began to focus on his own ideas, absorbing the Druid's natural way and some classics recorded by Lingqing to integrate new farm ideas.
With such a great power, Ling Qing will naturally not turn a deaf ear.
After he received the Druid's inheritance, he kept thinking about what is the way of nature.
But this proposition is too grand.
In a narrow sense, it is a forest, a mountain, a plain, and a swamp.
It is the balance between plants, the survival of the fittest among animals, the birth, old age, sickness and death of living things, etc.
In a broad sense, is there anything in the world that is not natural?
The desert with the least intersection with plants, the city known as the steel jungle, and the underground world with only spores and fungi.
Even the will of the entire planet, the sun and the moon in the sky, the stars in the distant universe, etc.
can be called natural.
But it doesn't mean that if you say it's your nature, you can do it.
You have to be able to do it, be able to understand and influence it, in order to obtain the corresponding natural gifts.
Therefore, he started with trees and forests, taking the balance of vegetation ecology as nature, and balancing plants to obtain natural gifts.
After all, when he talked about nature, the first thing he thought of was the vast jungle and the unbelievable plants.
For him, this is more in line with his own definition of nature, and it is more in line with his understanding, and he knows how to influence it.
Then after obtaining the authority of strange plants, it is more about cultivating and obtaining strange plants.
Take from nature and use yourself.
But this is just the basics.
It was also during his stay in Laoshan that he came into contact with the Dao, and it is natural to seek the Dao.
Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature.
Taoist, learn from nature.
This naturalness is the meaning of nature.
It is the characteristic of the entire universe, including the fundamental attributes of all things in the world.
The law that everything in the universe imitates or follows.
So can druids understand this "nature" as "druid's nature"?
Of course it is possible!
Druids can obtain power from nature, and this power naturally contains the laws of everything.
The nature of Taoism follows nature, and of course it can also be understood as the nature of druids.
At the same time, the innate qi he cultivated is the original qi that gives birth to all things.
It is the basic quality that constitutes all things in the world, and everything is in this qi.
In this way, this innate qi is the Tao and nature.
But in this way, there is a very embarrassing situation.
From the beginning, the forest is nature, and then all things are nature.
From the real forest vegetation to the ethereal rules of everything.
Only the transition between the forest and all things, the real and the virtual is missing.
Lack of a step-by-step understanding, and the real avenue of nature is too grand, resulting in a very fragmented and one-sided understanding of nature.
As a result, even though the way of nature was the first to be opened up to now, he has the poorest understanding of the way of nature of druids.
Or most clueless.
He sorted out the Emperor Miaoxiang with the way of wildness, and the Emperor Miaoling with the way of summoning.
Only the corresponding incarnation of the emperor was not sorted out by the way of nature.
After listening to Xu Xing's sermon, Ling Qing also figured it out.
He didn't intend to expand the druid's natural way too grandly.
Just use the forest as the foundation and the wood as the way.
Combine the Druid's concept of natural magic with the "Blue Emperor Jade Code" to integrate this method.
As for taking all things as nature, this is left to the all-inclusive innate one-qi way.
Now there is Xu Xing, a great sage who uses farming as the way to explain the thoughts of heaven and man.
If he asks for advice frequently, he will definitely benefit a lot.
Might not make up for the missing transition between forest and avenue.
Combining everything in the forest with the way of heaven, earth and man, sort out your own Druid philosophy of nature.
Therefore, when he sacrificed the Three-Light Divine Sword, he often discussed and asked Xu Xing for advice.
On this day, Xu Xingzheng was sorting out his knowledge while explaining the way of farming to Lingqing.
All the disciples, as well as the Guozi students of Mingji Hall, also listened carefully.
"Since Emperor Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs and identified hundreds of medicines, the ancestors used the grass and trees in the world to cure diseases and save people.
Knowing the five grains and the tools of healing, Fangzi will turn passive picking and relying on the sky to eat actively, and turn it into actively saving grain to satisfy the hunger. "
Xu Xing said while writing on the bamboo slips.
"This is human beings' actions to affect the laws of heaven and earth.
Or to be more precise, it affects the growth law of plants. "
Having said this, he looked up at Ling Qing who was sitting opposite him and asked.
"Do you think this has changed the laws of nature?"
"Poverty and learning, everything in the world is in this natural law.
The change that people think is just that nature has revealed a side that people have never discovered before. "
Ling Qing said without hesitation.
This is also his perception since he practiced.
Everything has its multifaceted nature, there is a way to kill people, and there is a way not to kill people.
Between killing and not killing, it is just like a mortal being who is obedient and rebellious, only upside down in the middle.
Merit is the way, but this karma may not be the way.
You don't know just because you haven't seen the Tao.
"That's right, the change that everyone thinks is actually still within the law between heaven and earth."
Xu Xing turned his attention to the bamboo slips in front of him.
"Any plant will be affected by sunshine, rain, drought, wind and snow, disease, pests, etc., this is the weather.
And most crops will be sown in spring, grow in summer, harvest in autumn, and kill everything in winter.
It is for spring birth, summer growth, autumn harvest, and winter storage. This is farming time.
The sages relied on this law to concentrate the crops that should have been scattered in the field, and cultivate the weak and few crops to grow stronger and more productive.
Therefore, to sow a hundred grains in a farm family, it is necessary to respond to the weather, the wealth of the land, and the use of manpower, because the group grows and grows, and the five grains multiply.
This is to follow the heavens and respond to things, and it is the way of heaven and man. "
Then he changed his voice and said.
"What the people want is food and clothing; the warm have clothing, and the full have food.
Planting mulberry and raising silkworms to make clothing can keep warm, and farming and planting grain can provide food to fill.
The people are the foundation of the country, and Sanggu is the foundation of the people.
If all the kings of the world can sow a hundred grains, encourage them to cultivate mulberry trees, and make them have enough food and clothing, they will have enough food and clothing.
How can the people turn their back on their country, abandon their king and flee?
Do you think so? "
