Chapter 992 Obsessed
Yang Qian was sitting on the field of Green Willow Villa, with his bare feet and linen robe stained with soil, and his brows and eyes were full of smiles. Although Yang Qian had never been to Zhouyi Academy, his eyes were watching every move inside, looking at the crowd of distinguished guests and celebrities. The gathering in the welcoming hall reminded me of a libretto from the suite song "Mourning Jiangnan" in "The Peach Blossom Fan": "I once saw the orioles crow in the Jade Palace of Jinling, and the flowers on the Qinhuai Waterside Pavilion bloomed early, but who knew they would easily fade away! Seeing him rise from the red Building, I watched him entertain guests, and saw his building collapse! I once slept in this moss-green tile pile, and watched the rise and fall of fifty years. That Wuyi Lane is not named Wang, the ghosts of Mochou Lake cry at night, and the Phoenix Terrace Owls perch. The dream of a ruined mountain is the truest. It’s hard to lose the old environment. If you don’t believe this map change! Make up a set of "Mourning for Jiangnan" and sing it until you grow old."
Sure enough, after all the wise men and scholars took their seats, Huang Tianbo, the dean of Four Seasons Academy, suddenly challenged Hong Yi.
"I heard that Hong Yi you are going to compile the I Ching? I have made the two hexagrams of Qian and Kun to explain the world. I want to come here today to ask for advice. The Qian hexagram you made explains the way of God. The first is Qian, Yuan and Xiang. Li, Zhen! Isn’t that right?”
Huang Tianbo's loud tone spread throughout the hall and was heard clearly by all the great scholars in the hall.
Hong Yi had been prepared for a long time. All the eight major academies of Neo-Confucianism were here today. He would not miss this opportunity and took the opportunity to attack and test his own knowledge. He was quite calm about this.
"Yes, the Qian hexagram of the Book of Changes is Qian, Yuan, Xiang, Li, Zhen! I did it!"
"Does Dean Huang think it's wrong for me to use this word to explain Qian Dao?"
Huang Tianbo straightened his expression, stood up, and walked in front of Hong Yi under the gaze of everyone. His eyes were full of disapproval and he refuted sharply.
"Of course it's not right. I ask you Hong Yi, why is profit in the main road? A gentleman values righteousness, and a villain values benefit! You put the word "profit" in the main road, do you mean that the way of heaven is a villain? It's ridiculous! I think you are doing this The word "profit" must be changed to the word "righteousness". The way of Qian hexagram is "yuan", "xiang", "righteousness" and "zhen". This is the perfect explanation of the way of heaven! Is it Hong Yi that you value profit rather than righteousness? You want the world to become a villain like you. Can’t do it?!”
Huang Tianbo's retort was very sharp and his tone was extremely harsh. He pointedly pointed out that Hong Yi was a villain, and the two hexagrams of Qian and Kun in the "Book of Changes" written by him were the way of a villain. This accusation was as heavy as a mountain, pressing down on everyone's heart.
Many of the people present were great Confucians and heads of academies. They were familiar with the classics and had profound knowledge. They also understood the dispute between interests and righteousness in Confucianism.
The dispute between interests and righteousness is a topic that has been difficult to debate for thousands of years. It is the division between gentlemen and villains, and it is also a taboo for many debaters. Because if you argue poorly, your reputation will be ruined, you will become a villain, and you will never be able to stand up.
Now Huang Tianbo raises this sharp question, which is his trump card. It is equivalent to making a difference in life and death.
Yang Gan was sitting at the head of the field, listening to Huang Tianbo's questioning of Hong Yi. He couldn't help but shake his head. I'm afraid this question group couldn't stump Hong Yi. He really underestimated Hong Yi's eloquence. Today's Neo-Confucianism is afraid It's going to be a complete failure.
Sure enough, Hong Yi heard Huang Tianbo's question, laughed ridiculously, and retorted directly.
"The Qian hexagram in my Book of Changes describes the way of heaven, but it is a metaphor for the way of humanity. The way of heaven is the way of a gentleman, and only then can we have the hexagram 'Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives to constantly strive for self-improvement.'"
"Yuan refers to the growth of good deeds, enjoyment refers to the gathering of praise, benefit refers to the harmony of righteousness, and chastity refers to the ability to do things. The benefit in my book of changes is not the benefit of benefit, but the benefit of advantage. Gentleman Only when it is beneficial to all things can it be in harmony with righteousness. Yuan, Xiang, Li and Zhen are the four virtues of a gentleman and the way of heaven and man. You don't even understand the book, so you just blame it at will? This is the insight of a villain!"
"You are sophistry and a villain!"
Huang Tianbo's expression changed. Originally, he wanted to lure Hong Yi into the eternal problem of the debate between interests and righteousness, but he did not expect that Hong Yi Jian would dodge it so easily, and all his preparations would be in vain.
"You say I am a villain? Many people in the world are dying of cold and slow death, but you are full of food all day long and look on with blank eyes. Now I am going to make public what I have learned and educate the people so that they can know etiquette and justice, but you still come to stop me. What are you talking about about the dispute between profit and justice? If you stop me from doing this righteousness, you are a hypocrite and a real villain!"
"When I write articles, hundreds of saints and disciples sing in harmony with each other. Hundreds of disciples and saints all recognize my righteousness and dare to talk to me about the ways of a gentleman and a villain!"
Hong Yi first stated that the benefits in his Book of Changes were not the benefits of interests. He was already in an invincible position. No debate could hurt him in the slightest or attack his "Book of Changes". What's even more powerful is that Hong Yi used the Hundred Saints as a talisman. It was simply the truth, and his words were so sharp that Huang Tianbo could not refute.
Huang Tianbo's face changed. Sometimes it was sallow, then bright red, and then green again. It changed into several colors in the blink of an eye, and a ball of light and fire started burning in his thoughts.
"puff!"
The master of the Four Seasons Hospital, Huang Tianbo, spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell straight down. He became obsessed, his soul memory was completely burned by the fire in his heart, and he suddenly lost his breath!
Those who practice Taoism and study will have higher achievements and greater inner demons. Once the fire goes wrong, all Taoism skills will be lost, or the body will die and Taoism will disappear. Huang Tianbo was left speechless by Hong Yi's argument, his inner demons and inner fires burned together, and he died of anger!
This is a person whose Taoist heart has been broken and who has gone crazy and died, which is different from being beaten to death. Many of the great scholars present were also extremely advanced in cultivation, and they were all knowledgeable and knowledgeable people. Seeing such a scene, they could not help but change their expressions. , there was a lot of discussion, which made people sigh.
"The higher the knowledge, the heavier the inner demons, the greater the wisdom, and the greater the troubles. You have to guard against them."
The disciples of Four Seasons Academy listened to the discussion and looked at the strange looks in their eyes, and all of them looked ashen. Their president, Huang Tianbo, was so angry that he died during the debate on the spot. This was an eternal scandal. The most important thing for scholars is a reputation. Reputation is much more important than life. Now that the reputation of Four Seasons Academy has been lost, everyone wants to die. I have all my thoughts.
"It's a good idea to go crazy. In this situation, if you can't get out of the situation, you will have no choice but to die!"
Hong Yi's eyes were full of coldness. He didn't have a trace of pity for Huang Tianbo's disappointment, but more of a sense of pleasure. There was a trace of ridicule on his face. He didn't overestimate his abilities and dared to come and question his own knowledge. He was shocked. The big tree is ridiculous and overbearing.
Hong Yi completely lost the kindness and love of a gentleman, and his heart was full of calculations and fame and fortune. Like Emperor Qian Yang Pan, Hong Xuanji, Champion Hou Yang An and others, he became as arrogant and domineering. Those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will prosper. Death, this is not a saint, but more of a devil's nature, selfish, ruthless, and ruthless. Hong Yi is the real one who has gone crazy and entered the devil's path without knowing it.
