Chapter 672: Taoist Psychology
It is said that Chen Long went to Denglong Inn to visit Cheng Gongying, but he saw Cheng Gongzhenjun dressed in Taoist clothes. Speaking of Taoist inheritance, Cheng Gongying admitted that he learned his art from Mount Emei, the seventh cave of Taoism.
But what Cheng Gongying learned was not martial arts, but the so-called Taoist mental skills. Chen Long didn't know much about Taoist magic. He only knew that Taoism had alchemy techniques, but elixirs such as immortality were obviously a pseudoscience.
Speaking of the study of mind, Cheng Gongying couldn't help but start chatting, his eyes were shining like a golden-eyed eagle. The golden eyes, which symbolized foreign blood, meant that Cheng Gongying's stance was completely different from that of people in the Central Plains.
"I went deep into the seventh cave and saw countless Qiang, Di, Ba, Xiongnu, Yuezhi and other barbarians, as well as the Liao people from the southwest, climbing over majestic mountains and crossing ravines and rivers in search of a better life. , living under a rock, seeking food in a Taoist temple, in order to feed and clothe the family."
Chen Long immediately thought of Zhang Lu of Hanzhong in the official history. Isn't this the reason why the Five Dou Rice Sect flourished? Then I remembered that Zhang Jiao, the father of his beloved wife Zhang Ning, the great virtuous teacher, was also wearing a Taoist cloak and started the Yellow Turban Rebellion?
Therefore, Cheng Gongying's Taoist psychology is probably also a set of theoretical theories that guide the psychology of Hu people.
According to the origin of Taoist psychology, whether it is Buddhism, Confucianism or Taoism, "original mind" is an important object of Chinese philosophical research. Confucianism focuses on examining the moral attributes of "mind" from a moral perspective, and Buddhism focuses on examining the moral attributes of "mind" from an ontological perspective. Discussing the different origins and functions of "heart", Taoism mainly reveals the status and function of "heart" from the perspective of life theory. Taoist research on "heart" should begin with "Laozi", and its thoughts on the mind were initially formed in "Guanzi", "Zhuangzi" enriched and developed it, and "Huainanzi" refined and deepened it. From this It formed a unique Taoist philosophy of mind tradition in the sense of life theory. It has a complementary relationship with the Confucian-Buddhist moral theory or ontological thoughts of mind, and constitutes an important ideological content of Chinese philosophy.
Sure enough, Cheng Gongying, a master of mind science in the Three Kingdoms period, continued: "The Taoist vision is towards the heaven and earth and all things, and the destination is the great road of the universe. The heart gives rise to all things, all things give rise to the heart, and the heart and things are one. If everything is connected to one, there is no understanding. And the ghosts and gods serve. If you establish the origin, you will know how to communicate with the gods."
Cheng Gongying said happily, but suddenly he saw a look of doubt in Chen Long's eyes. He knew that what he said was too profound, so he changed the topic again: "Actually, Taoist psychology has no sense of sect. What we focus on is just the world between heaven and earth." The only way. Just like all the roads leading through Chang'an, what you see when you reach the root must be the same thing, because there is only one way of heaven and earth, but the appearances can be thousands of different."
Chen Long nodded vaguely in understanding, and Cheng Gongying finally turned to the topic: "Taoism is very particular about the mind, and it requires a thorough observation and insight into everything in the world, including oneself, who is no different from anything else. It is precisely because This outward tendency has opened a precious door to truly enter the world, so many Taoist figures who have made great changes such as Jiang Shang, Fan Li, Zhang Liang, etc. have appeared. Compared with Buddhism, Taoism has a unique relationship between entering the world and transcending the world. More room to move forward and retreat freely.”
Chen Long finally understood and suddenly asked: "Mr. Chenggong saw the hardships suffered by his fellow Hu people, so he strengthened his determination to join the world, right?"
Cheng Gongying was slightly startled, as if he didn't realize what Chen Long said. Chen Long simply said more directly: "Jiang Shang, Fan Li, and Zhang Liang are all Taoist figures who turned the world upside down. Mr. Cheng Gong said in his words Do they also want to be like them?"
Cheng Gongying's eyes flashed with golden light. He obviously didn't expect that Chen Long's words were so sharp. His words turned red and white. He suddenly stood up and said: "Brother, your words are serious. Han Zuo will decline, and the world will be in chaos." I feel deeply that in this era of decline and chaos, those with high positions are in danger, those with a lot of wealth will die, and wealth and splendor are not enough to be greedy, so I put on my clothes and learn Taoism. I have lived in seclusion in Mount Emei for many years, and have seen the suffering in the world, so I have made great aspirations. When I joined the WTO, I assumed the status of Zheng Qiang, Di and other Hu people. The head of Bo Diao and Marshal Han both had the same ideals as me, so they followed them diligently and established many elite Hu people."
After finishing speaking, he stared at Chen Long with golden eyes and said: "My little brother has extraordinary knowledge, which I have only seen in my life. If you are willing to use it for me, I will do my best to build a powerful force for your tribe and attack at the appropriate time." Central Plains.”
Facing Cheng Gongying's unabashed solicitation, Chen Long pretended to be excited and said: "What a great status for a Hu man! Why are the people from the Central Plains the masters, while the Hu brothers and sisters can only be slaves and maids? If Huaiyang can follow Mr. Cheng Gong , willing to be the vanguard of the attack on Chang'an!"
When Cheng Gongying saw Chen Long's attitude, he couldn't help but said with great joy: "Little brothers, please be patient. Since we have the same ideal, we will be like-minded people from now on. My thoughts, this matter will not be made public for the time being. You will be my secret force." , I will naturally provide money and food for your troops. With your ability, you can naturally build a powerful army. In order to avoid being noticed, you will only call me Chenggong Military Advisor from now on, and I will call you General Huai."
Chen Long instantly understood that what Cheng Gongying wanted to create was actually a secret force loyal only to himself. Marshal Han and the Haiqing faction were just tricks to deceive others. But Cheng Gongying created such a secret team, wasn't he afraid that Han Sui would be overly concerned if he found out?
Generally speaking, the purpose of building a secret power without telling one's master is to deal with one's master. Could it be that this True Lord Chenggong also had the ambition to take over Xiliang and even dominate the world? Let’s continue to observe.
Chen Long pretended to shed tears of gratitude and said: "What the True Lord said is exactly what I, Huaiyang, want to do. If you can follow the True Lord and do something great, it will be a tribute to the princes and generals, and you will have no regrets in this life! I will not hide it from the True Lord, There are no less than a thousand of my men who can ride horses and shoot arrows, and there are no less than a thousand good horses, and they have mastered the saber and strong formations. Although I dare not say that I am invincible, I can seize the formation and kill the enemy."
Cheng Gongying said happily: "I had known that General Huai was a talented person. If he had such a powerful people to help him, he would have done twice the result with half the effort. I thought Marshal Han could definitely be relied on, but it's a pity..."
Chen Long knew that the drama was coming and looked at Cheng Gongying intently. Cheng Gongying's face suddenly became distressed, and the golden light in his eyes shone: "It's a pity that he no longer trusts me because he has recruited a new person. My position as military advisor has been suspended. It is rumored that Marshal Han intends to transfer the command of the army to Hand it over to this person, and the military power of our Haiqing faction’s main force will also be handed over, which is something our leader will never allow!”
Chen Long's eyes had narrowed, and he asked with murderous intent: "Oh, is this happening? Who is this person?"
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
