Zhang Zhilin suddenly came to Ye Ze and went straight in to argue with Ye Ze. At this time, Ye Ze almost raised his hand again, wanting to slap Zhang Zhilin, but then he thought about it and put it down again. , I have actually become somewhat familiar with and accustomed to Zhang Zhilin’s temperament. And Ye Ze also wanted to see what Zhang Zhilin had realized after thinking about it for so long. So he nodded to Zhang Zhilin and motioned for Zhang Zhilin to sit on the heart-nurturing platform.
Zhang Zhilin made a gesture of raising the jade pendant.
This action legend originated from the era of Donghuang Taiyi. It was a unique gesture used by Donghuang Taiyi's generals to celebrate the victory of beheading generals and defeating the enemy. Because in wartime, the commander-in-chief should not drink alcohol, so he raised the flag. The jade pendant around the waist pretends to be drinking wine to express happiness. Later, it gradually evolved into a gesture of goodwill, celebration, exhortation, and demonstration. It can be regarded as the most popular gesture in Dahuang. Even King Jian of Wucheng made this move against the three armies when the Qin Empire swept away the desolation. At that time, the people of Qin all sang "Qin Feng" which said "How can I say that I have no clothes, I am wearing the same robe as my son", which immediately popularized this action among the human race. Even the generals of the Han Dynasty inherited this action. In the end, this action was completely passed down.
At this time, Ye Ze saw Zhang Zhilin's bright eyes and sharp eyebrows, and he couldn't help but think of the poem "The handsome man is handsome and talented, and his fame is soaring among the sages."
The two sat opposite each other, and Ye Ze asked leisurely, "Where can I watch the Tao?"
Zhang Zhilin didn't think at all and answered directly, "Stones from other mountains can attack jade. It can be seen that everything can complement each other. In other words, Tao is not seen in one thing, but is everywhere."
Ye Ze nodded. For Ye Ze, he had already adapted to Zhang Zhilin's talent, so he was not surprised by Zhang Zhilin's exquisite remarks. It seemed that in Ye Ze's opinion, such amazing remarks came from Zhang Zhilin's mouth. things that should be done.
Ye Ze then asked Zhang Zhilin, "Then do you know what Master Nanhua said?"
Nanhua Zhenren, Zhuangzhou of the ancient Chu state.
Zhang Zhilin shook his head happily.
Ye Ze then said, "There was once an old man, Dong Guozi, who asked Zhuangzi, and Zhuangzi replied, 'It is everywhere.' Dongguozi asked Zhuangzi to answer an accurate place. Zhuangzi first said it was among ants, and then said it was among the tiles of the house. Finally, he said that he was in the peeing room. Dong Guozi remained silent, thinking that Zhuangzi was playing tricks on him..."
Ye Ze raised his head and saw Zhang Zhilin with an expectant look on his face, and then continued, "Zhuangzi explained, Master's questions are of course not worthy of quality. The questions you get are from the supervisory market, and the situation gets worse every time. You But if there is nothing to escape from, the ultimate way is like this, and the same is true for Da Yan. Zhou, Pan, and Xian have different names but the same reality, but they refer to the same thing."
Zhang Zhilin thought carefully.
"Zhou, Pan, and Xian have different names but actually mean the same thing. Just like the Great Dao actually contains different things, the Tao ultimately points to one place. That's why Zhuangzi said that solidity is not as good as quality - the root of Tao There is no way to be precise about a certain substance. Therefore, Tao is in everything, but it also includes all things. This is the so-called 'If the Tao is so, so is the Tao'."
Zhang Zhilin then said, "Because of this, I sensed the great way from those one hundred and eight sword ways."
Ye Ze asked with interest, "What does the avenue look like in your eyes?"
Zhang Zhilin said bluntly, "The road to repair is long, and my destiny is to be renewed. The road will be dim, but it will be endless if you are not diligent."
Along the way of cultivation, it is often like being deaf. I cannot get anything from the outside world. It has become solidified. My mission is to innovate and bring forth the new. There will be moments of confusion on the road, but it is endless.
Ye Ze seemed to have found something from these few sentences, but also seemed not to find anything. So he said, "Where is the restoration? Since the avenue is dim, why can it be endless?"
Zhang Zhilin immediately stood up, pointed to the waterfall outside the pavilion and said, "Let's talk about the avenue first. The avenue is like a waterfall, endless and without end, with no beginning or end. Precisely because the avenue has no end, It can wash away the darkness like water. Therefore, the avenue is always dark. If there is no darkness, naturally there is no need to change."
"Therefore, the Tao is 'solid but not qualitative'. It is precisely because the Tao is endless transformation that it cannot be specific to one thing. This is also why the Tao is everywhere and includes everything. Because it is endless and indefinite."
Zhang Zhilin then pointed to the west and south direction and said coldly, "This is the avenue."
Ye Ze nodded. Zhang Zhilin at this moment was as precious as pure jade and pure gold in his eyes.
In fact, regarding the cultivation of realms, if the Ningding and Ningding realms previously focused on spiritual power, with the Five Elements and Bagua, then the Yin-Yang and Taiyi realms are more about the perception of the great road.
Although Zhang Zhilin's eloquent speech at this moment contained a sense of arrogance, but against the backdrop of Zhang Zhilin's talent, it can only be said that this is the youthful frivolity of a genius.
Zhang Zhilin then sat back down and continued, "The great road is the great road of the world, and it does not depend on one person or a group of people. The real great road is always changing and flowing, just like the pattern of the world is always dependent on the movement of the great road. "
Zhang Zhilin continued, "The so-called long journey of cultivation reflects the changes in the cultivation path over the past 50,000 years. If we call the various cultivation patterns of Dahuang "great dynasties", then we will call the Donghuang Tai At that time, the monster clan was regarded as the great age of legends, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were called the great age of the world, Xia, Shang and Zhou were called the great age of slaves, and the Qin Dynasty to Hangu Shang Dynasty were called the great age of emperors. Then now can be called the great era of the sect.”
"We can see that the times are always changing. Just like the supreme good is like water, it benefits all things without fighting. Every era is born towards goodness and perishes due to corruption." Zhang Zhilin said lightly.
Ye Ze immediately picked up the topic, "Just like you said in the great era of legend, there was the goodness of all the demons, but this kind of goodness was not the goodness of the human race that was gradually rising. And with the departure of Donghuang Taiyi, the goodness of all the demons The order was gone, and it fell into corruption, gradually competing with the great era of universal justice, and the human race's universal goodness no longer adapted to the human race, so the human race entered the great era of slaves..."
Zhang Zhilin directly grabbed the topic and said, "So! The era will eventually come to an end when it gradually solidifies. This time is the time of coma, this time is the time of the reform revolution!"
"When an era can only satisfy the desires of a very small number of people, that is the swamp of the era. Only an era that can satisfy the majority of people can be called a great era."
Ye Ze asked with a hint of torture, "There is nothing wrong with what you said, but what I want to know is, what have you learned in the way of swordsmanship?"
Zhang Zhilin stood up straight, leaned forward on his knees, and pressed his whole body towards Ye Ze, his face almost touching Ye Ze's. Ye Ze had to lean back slightly. I saw Zhang Zhilin saying to Ye Ze with a serious face, "I realized that I must learn the supreme swordsmanship."
Ye Ze looked at Zhang Zhilin, Zhang Zhilin looked at Ye Ze, Ye Ze looked at Zhang Zhilin, and Zhang Zhilin—was slapped by Ye Ze!
Zhang Zhilin sat back down without a care and looked at Ye Ze with an unmistakable look.
After Ye Ze calmed down, he suppressed the urge to slap Zhang Zhilin again and asked Zhang Zhilin in a deep voice, "Those one hundred and eighty swordsmanship, I think it is reasonable to think of that avenue, but how did you come up with the supreme swordsmanship?" It seems you just want to learn from me."
Zhang Zhilin nodded without reservation and said, "Yes, I want to learn, and I must learn."
Ye Ze didn't hold back at this moment, but directly picked up Zhang Zhilin and threw him directly into the pool.
After Zhang Zhilin fell into the water, he swam in the water with one arm for a moment, then jumped out of the water, took out the bamboo slip from under his other arm, and put it in his pocket.
Ye Ze said directly, "You think so well, it's impossible to follow this Three Lives Jane. In your state of soul, do you still want to have something real in my eyes?"
Zhang Zhilin then threw the bamboo slip directly to Ye Ze. It couldn't go away anyway, so he might as well throw it out to vent his anger. Ye Ze reached out and took it.
Zhang Zhilin jumped back to the heart-nurturing platform, and Ye Zeyouyou asked, "Are you calm?"
Zhang Zhilin nodded and then said, "I'm very calm. So..."
Ye Ze looked at Zhang Zhilin curiously.
Zhang Zhilin said directly, "I want to learn the supreme swordsmanship."
Ye Ze stood up directly and muttered as he walked towards Zhang Zhilin, "I built this mind-nurturing platform just to allow me to meditate and cultivate my mind in three hundred years of nothingness. I can't support this brat anymore once he comes. I have to do it today." You cannot teach him a lesson."
If a person can be proud of his talent, then that's okay, but Zhang Zhilin is already a bit arrogant.
Zhang Zhilin watched Ye Ze approaching without any panic. Even though Ye Ze was showing signs of anger at this time, Zhang Zhilin still looked confident.
Ye Ze walked up to Zhang Zhilin, and when his hand had already grasped Zhang Zhilin's shoulder, Zhang Zhilin said, "Back then, the supreme sect was indeed stronger than the emperor. Even today, even the Hangu Pass of the merchants has started to have one sect as the leader. However, Is the sect the greatest good?"
Ye Ze stopped and was quiet for a moment.
Zhang Zhilin then said, "Maybe it's only been three hundred years in your eyes, but the sect's shortcomings have already begun to appear."
"Sects form clans based on surnames, gather into parties, denounce others, choose the best among those with the same surname, exclude others and destroy talents. This is the current situation of great wilderness. Such a situation that does not allow talents to be revealed and the decline of aristocratic families - Could it be that what the Supreme Being said back then was 'a world for ten thousand people?'"
As soon as the words were spoken, Jing was speechless...
