Chapter 2760: Second-Rank Scholar, What Is the Use of the Iron Rod?
Seeing this, Xu Zisheng was thoughtful, and he had an enlightenment. He stretched out his right hand and placed it in front of the white deer. The white deer opened its mouth, and the colorful Yunzhi fell into Xu Zisheng's palm and disappeared in an instant.
Xu Zisheng only felt a huge amount of luck falling on him. With a movement in his heart, countless articles and moral principles appeared in the void around him. The sound of reading loudly resounded throughout Yunlu Academy, making people listen and fell into an epiphany. The awe-inspiring righteousness rose and Rising, soaring straight into the sky, majestic and unstoppable.
"Heaven and earth carry the Tao. If the Tao exists, all things will come into being. If the Tao is lost, all things will perish."
"There is no good or evil body, and there are good and evil actions. Knowing good and evil is conscience, and doing good and eliminating evil is qingwu."
"The king is the boat, and the people are the water. The water can carry the boat, but it can also capsize it!"
"Studying is close to knowledge, practicing hard is close to benevolence, and knowing shame is close to courage. Knowledge promotes action, and action seeks knowledge!"
"The so-called knowledge lies in the investigation of things. If we want to know things, we must exhaust their principles. The soul of the human heart is full of knowledge, and everything in the world has its reasons. However, there is no limit to the reasons, so its knowledge is endless. also."
"The heart is the reason. Are there any things or reasons outside the heart in the world?"
"Whatever a person can do without learning is his good ability; what he knows without worrying is his conscience. As a child, everyone knows how to love his relatives; as an adult, everyone knows how to respect his elder brothers. Parents. Loyalty is benevolence; respecting elders is righteousness. Without others, it reaches the world."
"There is nothing outside my heart, nothing outside my heart, no reason outside my heart!"
"When you don't look at this flower, this flower and your heart are silent together. When you look at this flower, the color of this flower becomes clear for a moment, and you know that this flower is not outside your heart."
The voices of saints sounded out one after another, echoing in Yunlu Academy. Everyone seemed to be listening to the saint's teachings and immersed in them. Only Xu Zisheng's body was filled with awe-inspiring aura, his luck was rolling, his mind was integrated into the void, heaven and earth, and thousands of avenues emerged. In his heart, the insights in his heart turned into power and rules, filling the world between heaven and earth. The voices of saints and saints were one of the thousands of his insights, causing strange phenomena in heaven and earth. Only he knew that he had quietly broken through a world. Restrictions have entered a new realm of Confucianism and Taoism. At this time, you can be called a great Confucian, and you are not far away from being a sub-sage. As long as you record your thoughts and understandings in writing and form a systematic theory, you can achieve the fruit of sainthood. position, and then innovate the theoretical system, even if it surpasses Neo-Confucianism.
Yo yo deer roar, eat wild apples. I have guests, harp blowing Sheng. Playing the sheng, drums and reeds, carrying the basket is the general. People who are kind to me show me how to behave.
Yo yo deer roar, eating wild wormwood. I have a guest, Deyin Kong Zhao. If a gentleman treats the people with disdain, he will be effective. I have a banquet, and the guest style is Yan Yiao.
Yo yo, the deer roars, eating wild herbs. I have a guest who plays the harp, harp, drums and harp. The drums, harps, drums and harps are harmonious and exquisite. I intend to drink wine with the intention of enjoying the guests.
The white deer raised its head and roared, stepped on its four hooves, flew into the void, and traveled in the sea of destiny. With a joyful face, it seemed to be celebrating that a great Confucian appeared again in the world, and was about to step into the sub-sage. Confucianism and Taoism were about to Great prosperity again, the whole world celebrates, and all the people congratulate.
As luck disappeared, the white deer disappeared, and the majestic and solemn voice of the sages in the world also disappeared. Only then did everyone come back to their senses and looked at the aloof Xu Zisheng in white Confucian shirt with a look of shock on his face. With his awe-inspiring righteousness, grand majesty, and sacred majesty, people can't help but lower their heads, as if their hearts are filled with awe, as if they were seeing the Master and the Saint.
Dean Zhao Shou was at the highest level and had already entered the realm of the third level of destiny. Seeing Xu Zisheng in such a state, he was surprised. His eyes widened and sparkled, and he said with some uncertainty.
"A natural phenomenon, a third-grade destiny?"
Zhao Shou was also a little unsure. He always felt that something was wrong. In the realm of third-grade destiny, the innate vision did not seem to be so majestic. However, it had been two hundred years since the scholars had given birth to a real second-grade scholar. He also did not believe that Xu Zisheng was so young. , he could step into the realm of the second-grade Confucian, even if he only stepped into the third-grade, he was extremely shocked.
Xu Zisheng did not answer, but raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a somewhat humble and low-key smile, which made people full of reverie and amazed.
"How is this possible, to enter the realm of third-level destiny at such a young age!"
Zhang Shen's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was light shining in the depths of his eyes. There seemed to be thousands of troops galloping around, turning into a battlefield, and the sound of killing could be heard faintly, making people feel fearful.
"He is indeed no weaker than us before. He has already stepped into the realm of a fourth-grade gentleman. He is only one step away from establishing his destiny!"
At this time, Chen Tai's majesty was exposed, and his whole body was like a rainbow. He was like the chief minister of the court, directing the country, adjusting the yin and yang, and creating the universe. There was a faint aura of awe-inspiring overflowing from his whole body. He looked at Xu Zisheng incredulously.
"Now that his inscription has been broken, he has received feedback from our Yunlu Academy about his luck. He has once again taken a crucial step and entered the realm of third-grade destiny. He is not weaker than the dean. It is really enviable!"
Li Mubai's personality was not so playful and scolding before, and he had no formal appearance. It was only because he had half-stepped into the realm of establishing a destiny that his personality changed. The other two great scholars were noisy all day long. Now that I see a junior stepping into the realm of destiny before me, my emotions are indescribable. There were faint black and white lines appearing all over his body, nineteen vertical and horizontal lines, and black and white chess pieces fell one after another, turning into a large formation, with endless mystery hidden in it, mysterious and awe-inspiring.
A bamboo forest appeared around Zhao Shou. A Confucian scholar stood in it, looking up at the bamboo forest. He was full of wisdom, humility, etiquette and other beautiful qualities. He looked at Xu Zisheng and murmured to himself.
"The heart is reason, the unity of knowledge and action, the investigation of things leads to knowledge, conscience, and nothing outside the mind. This is a set of strict and mature academic theories that inherits the doctrines of sages and Neo-Confucianism, carries forward the thoughts and ideas of sages, and further improves Confucianism. This is the atmosphere of the Yasheng pattern. Confucianism and Taoism have finally ushered in new development, and Neo-Confucianism will become a thing of the past!”
Zhao Shou's evaluation was not a low one, and everyone was shocked. They looked at the young man who smiled and said nothing in surprise. Could it be that Confucianism is about to give birth to another sub-sage, the Confucian leader? Development brings prosperity.
"Dean Zhao is ridiculously complimenting me. This junior is not worthy of it. I just visited Yunlu Academy today and gained some insights."
Xu Zisheng does not want to be the first person. After all, he has not yet entered the realm of the sub-sage, and still wants to make a living in the court. Even if he intends to overthrow Neo-Confucianism, he will not say it now. He will only wait until he has achieved great strength. , Only then will the corrupt and outdated Neo-Confucianism be destroyed.
Build walls high, accumulate grain widely, and become king slowly. Xu Zisheng's development strategy is to enter the village secretly, do not want to shoot guns, and quietly make a fortune. Gou is the king.
All the noble people in the court were from the Imperial College. Xu Zisheng did not want to waste his energy and time fighting with those people all day long. It was only right to develop quietly and bury them all when he became stronger.
Zhao Shou seemed to be well aware of Xu Zisheng's plan. He laughed when he heard the words and did not continue. After all, no matter what Xu Zisheng did, he was destined to be different from the group of people in the Imperial College. He just needed to wait quietly. After all, Yunlu Academy's fortune is now rising and it is no longer suppressed.
The eldest princess frowned slightly, her face was beautiful, and she exuded a cool air. There was a bit of confusion in her starry eyes. She looked back and forth between Zhao Shou and Xu Zisheng. The thoughts in her heart were constantly turning, and she didn't know what she was thinking. This erudite and talented woman should not be underestimated.
"Let me go, this Lord Xu is indeed the son of destiny, the protagonist of the world. He can make breakthroughs by just inscribing a few words. He is born with a vision. He is simply the illegitimate son of God. He can't be compared to him. He really can't be compared!"
"Other time-travelers are blaming the sky, the earth, and the air in between. They are so arrogant. Why am I so pitiful? I just met a son of luck and the protagonist of the world. How can I compare with him? , I’m really not worth mentioning!”
Xu Qi'an looked at Xu Zisheng in surprise, and kept sighing in his heart. He didn't feel jealous at all. In his previous life, he was just a middle-aged man. How could he become the favored man of heaven and the dragon and phoenix among men as soon as he traveled through time? If he had such How could he have wasted so many years in his previous life and was lost among everyone?
Xu Qian's mentality is good, he is self-aware, and he doesn't have the arrogant idea that he was the boss or the second child back then. Now his goal is still very simple. He is to hold an official position in this evil feudal dynasty and marry a few flowers. The beauty of Jade has nothing to do, hanging on the railing and listening to music.
Xu Zisheng's eyes were warm and shining. He looked at Xu Qi'an, thought for a moment, and then said.
"As the saying goes, everyone who sees it has a share. This inscription gave me a good opportunity, so I don't want you to get nothing!"
When Xu Qi'an heard this, he secretly praised in his heart. This Master Xu is really fastidious in doing things and knows that the rain and dew are all wet. He wants to pamper himself. He is so happy. He has to stick out his butt and wait for the other party's favor.
"I see that you are now at the ninth level of martial arts, at the peak of refinement, with the body of a boy, and abundant yang energy. You can break through to the eighth level of martial arts. However, you have not opened the heavenly gate and are stuck at this difficulty. I will open the heavenly gate for you today. Help you enter the realm of Qi training!”
If you want to follow the path of martial arts, you will not be able to break through the realm of Qi training. When the Yang Qi is gone, it will be difficult to open the Heavenly Gate, so Xu Qi'an has not yet subdued the female demon.
Even before, when Xu Qi'an admired the family of the Minister of Household Affairs in the Jiaofang Division, he only had a taste of it and never really took it seriously. He still knew the importance and did not dare to break the boy's body easily and wanted to continue to move forward on the road of martial arts.
It is very difficult for a martial artist to open the Heavenly Gate. The safest and most convenient method recognized by the world is to combine medicinal baths and then ask a master in the God Refining Realm to open the Heavenly Gate for him. However, if the boy's body is broken during the essence refining stage and the yang energy is dispersed, he will not be able to go further in this life.
Xu Qi'an's second uncle went through many hardships in the Battle of Mountains and Seas, and only then did he accumulate military exploits. Only then did he get a master from the military to open the Heavenly Gate for him and step into the realm of Qi training. Then the next year, he gave birth to his cousin Xu New Year, an upright boy.
Now that the world is at peace, Xu Qi'an naturally can't follow the old path of his second uncle, and he doesn't even have the chance to accumulate military exploits. If Xu Qi'an can't make a breakthrough in Qi training, how will he start a family? How will he realize his wish to marry several beauties like flowers and jade, and how will he pass on the incense?
Xia violated the ban by using martial arts, so the imperial court strictly controlled the number of warriors. It was clearly stipulated that masters in the realm of refining the gods were not allowed to open the heaven gate for anyone in private. If they wanted to open the heaven gate for their heirs, they needed to report to the government.
However, today's Dafeng bureaucracy is extremely poor, corrupt officials are rampant, and the majesty of the court is weakening day by day. Even if they dare not openly defy the law, there are still many masters of the Refining God Realm looking for trading partners on the black market.
Xu Qi'an worked hard to make money because he had the idea of using money to replace merit. Otherwise, he would be stuck in the refinement realm. What use would he have for that iron rod?
Xu Qi'an originally thought of coming to Yunlu Academy and prostituted two great scholars for nothing, asking them to help him open the Heavenly Gate. Unexpectedly, he didn't expect that Taoists and Taoists would not work together, so it didn't work out.
Xu Qi'an had already made plans. He would sell a magic weapon for silver and go to the black market to trade with a master of spiritual cultivation. He would open the gate of heaven and enter the realm of qi training. After all, compared with money, female fairies were more favored by Xu Qi'an.
Unexpectedly, there was a sudden turn of events. Today, he actually met Xu Zisheng. By grinding for him, he got the opportunity to open the gate of heaven. He was really favored by a noble man. He was ready to welcome Xu Zisheng's favor. He closed his eyes and looked ready to be picked.
Seeing this, Xu Zisheng's mouth twitched slightly. What this guy was doing was really embarrassing. He was a straight man and didn't do gay. Why did he look so gay? It was easy to be misunderstood.
Zhang Shen and Li Mubai, two great scholars, were also romantic people. They looked wretched and looked at Xu Zisheng and Xu Qi'an with strange eyes. It was obvious that they had nothing good to say.
Xu Qiyan has been refining essence for 17 years and has always maintained his virginity. It is not easy. Martial arts are powerful, but it is also difficult to practice. In addition to the perseverance of strengthening the body every day, there is also the hurdle of beauty in front of them. The more prosperous one is, the easier it is to fall into beauty.
Xu Qiyan has entered the peak of refining essence for two years. Fortunately, the original owner is a martial arts fanatic with a stubborn personality and likes to get stuck in a dead end. It is people with this kind of personality who can polish their bodies day after day and lay a solid foundation for the way of martial arts. The refining essence realm is only the beginning of the martial arts system. You can imagine how difficult it is to reach a high-quality realm and prolong life.
Even so, the original owner of Xu Qiyan's body has to fight fiercely with his hands every day, not giving his left and right hands a chance to show off. If it were Xu Qiyan himself, he would not guarantee that he could persist for so many years, let alone stick to his original intention in front of beauty.
After all, although men usually use the upper head when thinking, sometimes the head without a brain below is the body.
Xu Zisheng didn't want to say more. He stared at Zhang Shen and Li Mubai's strange eyes, and stood in front of Xu Qi'an, speaking with his golden mouth and jade jade words.
"I say, the gate of heaven should be opened, and Xu Qi'an can step into the realm of Qi training!"
The aura of righteousness shook, and the rules between heaven and earth resonated slightly. A mysterious invisible force was born and fell on Xu Qi'an's head.
Suddenly, Xu Qi'an felt a warm current pouring into the Baihui point on the top of his head, sinking into the Dantian, and wandering around his limbs. The body seemed to remember the route of operation immediately. After completing a cycle, it stirred up the Qi by itself, got rid of the invisible force running with it, and flew away alone.
Xu Qi'an opened his eyes and looked at Xu Zisheng with a slightly dazed look. Seeing that he was extremely handsome, he felt ashamed. He looked like this, so handsome that it was inhumane. How could others live?
"Is this the opening of the Heavenly Gate? It seems quite simple!"
Xu Zisheng nodded slightly, with some admiration in his eyes. Generally speaking, opening the Heavenly Gate is a very difficult thing. For those with good martial arts talent, they only need a master of spiritual cultivation to circulate the Qi in their body for three cycles, and they can find the Qi sense by themselves, and from then on, they can feel the internal and external feelings. The worse the talent, the more times the Qi circulates, and the limit for normal people is nine cycles. In other words, if the eighth cycle is still unable to find the Qi sense by oneself, it means that this person is not suitable for the path of martial arts.
Xu Qi'an's martial arts talent in this body is extremely good. As soon as the Qi entered his body, he could generate Qi sense by himself, and the internal and external feelings merged, and he entered the Qi training, which is considered a martial arts genius.
"You circulate a few more cycles by yourself to stabilize the Qi and consolidate your realm!"
Xu Qi'an is a person who listens to advice. He dare not be careless. He circulated the Qi again for three cycles, and some inexplicable changes occurred in his whole person.
At this time, Xu Qian'an's eyes were bright and energetic, like cold stars, brilliant and magnificent, and the whole person was full of energy. His temperament became more heavy and restrained, deep and majestic, and his skin condition also improved. It was white and rosy, warm and delicate, like a beautiful jade, white and tender. He felt the new power in his body running around. Xu Qian'an stretched his limbs, raised his hands, and slapped the cracked Cheng family sub-sage stone tablet with a palm in the air.
"Bang!"
With a sound, the already cracked and broken stone tablet completely collapsed. This was the release of Qi, which was the magic of the early stage of Qi training. , If Xu Qian'an had held a sword just now, he could have stimulated the knife or sword energy. Of course, the power would not be very great, after all, he had just entered the Qi training realm. Like the peak of the Qi training realm like his second uncle Xu Zhiping, he could chop off the wall with a knife. He can also control objects in the air.
"This! Have I gotten into trouble!"
Xu Qi'an looked at the broken stone tablet. He could already imagine that the whole court was full of malice towards him. He felt a chill in his heart and shuddered. He asked with some uneasiness.
Xu Zisheng nodded when he heard this, stretched out his hand and patted Xu Qi'an on the shoulder gently, and said earnestly.
"You are finished. I wrote the inscription and broke the seal. That is academic exchange, a way of communication between scholars. Even if the Imperial College is dissatisfied, they will not trouble me in this regard!"
"But you are different. Civil and martial arts cannot coexist. You broke the sub-sage stone tablet. I am afraid that they will target you. But it should not be too much. At most, they will teach you a lesson!"
Xu Qi'an wanted to cry but had no tears. This was too bullying. The culprit of the collapse of this stone tablet was obviously Xu Zisheng, the son of luck and the protagonist of heaven and earth. Why in the end, it was this unlucky guy who bore the wrath and revenge of the Imperial College? Is it because I practiced martial arts and was a rough guy!
"Scholars are so petty and narrow-minded!"
Xu Qi'an was confused for a moment and said this, which attracted the angry eyes of everyone in the Wen Palace. After all, besides him, even the eldest princess was a scholar, so she naturally couldn't stand hearing this.
Xu Qi'an felt the anger around him, his body shrank slightly, and he quickly showed a flattering smile on his face. He slapped his mouth lightly and said with some annoyance.
"I spoke out of turn, please forgive me!"
Xu Xinnian, the upright boy, spoke again, and his words hit Xu Qi'an's heart directly, making him hold his breath in his heart and almost spit out blood.
"Warriors are really rough, they act crudely, behave barbarically, and have no brains!"
Zhang Shen, Li Mubai and others nodded repeatedly to express their agreement.
