Chapter 325 Confucianism Zheng Xuan

Zheng Xuan climbed the mountain step by step. Whenever he saw poems and articles left on the mountain from ancient times to the present, he would stop and appreciate them carefully.

Before he knew it, talent was gushing out around Zheng Xuan, and the literary world was cheering with joy.

Introduction: Zheng Xuan, courtesy name Kangcheng, was a native of Gaomi County, Beihai Prefecture, and a Confucian scholar and classicist in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Zheng Xuan annotated many classics and compiled the great literature of the Han Dynasty from ancient times to the present. He was a pioneer in the history of Chinese classics and the history of thought and culture. He devoted his life to sorting out ancient cultural heritage, which made classics enter the "small unified era". He also wrote books such as "Astronomy and the Seven Political Theories" and "Zhonghou", which are known as "Zhengxue".

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, Zheng Xuan was ranked among the twenty-two "first teachers" and was enshrined in the Confucius Temple.

This scene happened to be seen by Pei Jing, the hermit master who was preparing to go up the mountain, so he used his magical powers and quickly moved towards Zheng Xuan.

Pei Jing came to a stone wall on which was carved an article left by a predecessor. He saw a scholar in white clothes reading it seriously.

As if sensing something, the scholar in white turned his head, and their eyes met and they stared at each other from a distance.

Zheng Xuan intuitively felt that the man before him was surrounded by talent and had a carefree air of being immersed in the beauty of nature.

The moment their eyes met, Pei Jing stood still as if struck by lightning. In the eyes of the white-robed scholar, he saw a vast ocean of books, an era where Confucianism and Taoism flourished, and a cultural accumulation that had been passed down for thousands of years.

At this moment, he felt that he was not facing a person, but the bearer of Confucianism. Just one glance was enough to make him indulge in it and unable to extricate himself.

It was as if the person standing in front of him was not a person, but a collection of books from ancient and modern times. Pei Jing even felt a new path of Confucianism in them.

He had never experienced this feeling before, even with the dean. Looking at his cultivation, it was not as good as his own. It was obvious that this was not suppression due to cultivation, but a potential reaction of Wen Dao.

Pei Jing did not dare to be arrogant, and quickly bowed and said, "Junior Pei Jing greets you, senior. I wonder why you came to the academy?"

Zheng Xuan returned the greeting and said, "I am Zheng Xuan, also a Confucianist, living in seclusion in Haozhou. I heard a while ago that the world's number one academy was holding an exchange conference, so I traveled across mountains and rivers to come here to learn and exchange ideas."

Pei Jing smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, you are joking. In front of you, Pei Jing is like a fluorescent light compared to the bright moon. He is simply not worth mentioning."

Zheng Xuan said: "How can a Confucian practitioner belittle himself? You must know that there are different levels of knowledge and different specializations. Exchange and discussion are the two ways of argumentation, learning from each other's strengths and making up for each other's weaknesses. If you retreat like this, wouldn't that cut off your path to progress?"

"I see that you are following the path of a hermit in the mountains and rivers. You should know that hermits can be divided into "great hermits" and "small hermits". Great hermits hide in the city, while small hermits hide in the wild. Although your path belongs to the category of "small hermits", it is also a bright road. When you express your feelings in the mountains and rivers, aren't you also expressing your feelings in yourself?"

Pei Jing was struck by lightning when he heard this. It was the first time he heard such a statement. But even though it was the first time he heard it, he felt that what Zheng Xuan said was right because he felt his true Tao.

As Zheng Xuan's voice continued to echo in Pei Jing's mind, Pei Jing gradually entered a wonderful state.

In an instant, a storm arose out of nowhere, the entire Wenshan Mountain shook, and the talent between heaven and earth continued to flow into Pei Jing's body.

Zheng Xuan shook his head and thought to himself what a pity. This person has now realized the great Dao and should have entered the third realm in one fell swoop. It's a pity that he doesn't have a magical treasure that matches the great Dao. What a pity.

But this is also good. Anyway, my own understanding is enough. As long as I find the great spiritual treasure, I can open up the Purple Palace and enter the Three Realms at any time.

Pei Jing's breakthrough instantly attracted the attention of all the students and even shocked all the teachers and deans of the academy.

In the small pavilion, the man in black clothes who was playing with the inkstone said in amazement, "This is Pei Jing. What kind of opportunity did he get? I didn't expect that he would be the first one among us to break through. He is such a lucky guy."

Xie Baihua, who was wearing a white robe with embroidered flowers on it, said, "It's a pity that Pei Jing hasn't prepared the great spiritual treasure yet, otherwise he would have been able to break into the third realm in one fell swoop."

At the same time, Mr. Xie Qianxing, who was standing at the door with a serious face, was also looking down the mountain, wondering what he was thinking.

The dean and the prince were both alarmed. Tang Tianyu looked at him and said in shock: "This is Pei Jing. What did he do? How did his realm suddenly improve so much?"

Dean Chen Shiling looked down the mountain with bright eyes. It seemed as if there was a change of seasons inside. Tracing back to the source of time, it took him only a moment to understand the general situation. He said, "I didn't expect Pei Jing to have such an opportunity."

The second dean, Fan Wenxuan, who also had gray hair, asked, "Shi Ling, did you find anything?"

Chen Shiling smiled and said, "Haha, a great Confucian scholar has come down the mountain. I'm afraid his Confucian knowledge is not inferior to mine. You can communicate with him. I believe you will gain a lot."

The Third Dean Liu Ximing said: "Dean, could it be that the great scholar who lived in seclusion has come into the world? He must be an extraordinary person to be able to help Pei Jing break through the third realm so easily."

Dean Chen Shiling said: "I'm afraid you guessed wrong this time. The cultivation level of this person is only the second level of the body-building stage, and he should be in his forties. Although his cultivation level is a bit low, his understanding of Confucianism and culture exceeds that of everyone present."

"Wenxuan, go tell the teachers to pay attention to a man named Zheng Xuan and not to underestimate him. This may be their chance."

Tang Tianyu on the side reminded: "Dean, are we taking this too lightly? If the other party has bad intentions, it will be a devastating blow to our college."

"Moreover, this person's whereabouts are unknown, and his purpose has not yet been investigated."

The dean smiled at Tang Tianyu and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. The other party has a great and righteous spirit, so it is impossible for him to harm the academy. It is also time to put some pressure on the teachers in the academy. Until now, only one person has broken through the third realm."

"I hope Pei Jing will be a good start. If our academy really declines, it will be a situation of no return. Don't forget that there is also a Tianming Academy in Jiangzhou, which has always been ranked closely behind our academy. They have always wanted to surpass us."

Tang Tianyu was about to speak when he was interrupted by Dean Chen Shiling: "I know what you are thinking. Don't worry, the academy is mine. I will not watch it go wrong. I can assure you of this."

While the four were discussing in the thatched hut, Pei Jing at the foot of the mountain also made a breakthrough. He then bowed three times to Zheng Xuan and said, "Thank you for your advice, senior. Otherwise, it would take Pei Jing several more years to find his own path."

Zheng Xuan said: "That's because you have realized it yourself. If you don't study hard to realize it, it's useless to keep asking for advice."

When Pei Jing was about to speak, he saw the token on his waist shaking. Then Pei Jing could only say with regret: "I wanted to have a discussion with you, but now the exchange meeting is about to start, and I have tasks to attend to at the academy, so I am afraid I have to leave."

Zheng Xuan smiled and said, "It's easy. I will ask all of you for advice when I get up the mountain. There is no rush to communicate. You should go and do your own things first."
