Confucianism And Martial Arts

Chapter 007 Emperor Wu Rujun

Chapter 007 Emperor Wu RujunQin Feng, who had just sat down cross-legged, hurriedly stood up and opened the door.

The moment the door opened, the elegant fragrance drifted in gently, and a slender and beautiful woman wearing a light cyan tunic and a moon-white cloak walked in slowly.

She flicked her cloak lightly, and she was already sitting firmly on the chair opposite Qin Feng.

The woman in front of her has brows like the moon, eyes like stars, and her skin is as fair as flawless jade. Except for her slightly thin lips, her facial features are exquisite enough to pass the discerning aesthetics of later generations. It can be said that she is a very eye-catching classical beauty.

The key point is that she doesn't look much older than Qin Feng, not even twenty years old.

She is the master of Zhenwu Academy and the inspector of the Confucianism class at the academy—Jiang Yurou.

Qin Feng is her student and the oldest one.

It is equivalent to the dean and head teacher of later generations.

The Confucianism class is not an elegant place for later generations to cook tea around the furnace, but a place where Zhenwu Academy will go to those who have failed the selection of Emperor Wu for the first time.

The original meaning is that if these people can't learn martial arts, then they can write and draw, and they can be chores in the academy...

Therefore, the Confucianism class is also called the handyman class.

Jiang Yurou is often talking about the Great Way of the Sages above, while everyone below is dozing off and chatting...

As for skipping classes, it is more commonplace.

Of course, it also includes the previous Qin Feng.

"The high apprentice of Jixia Academy, coming here, it's really too condescending..." Qin Feng thought regretfully when he saw Jiang Yurou, combined with his previous memories.

Although in Zhenwu Academy, Jiang Yurou is not a martial artist, but a Confucianist.

It is responsible for teaching the students in the academy to read and write, cultivate their sentiments, and cultivate martial virtues. Of course, the latter two functions are just that. The Confucianism, which has been in decline for thousands of years, and even the road of cultivation has been cut off, has only this function. .

Even though Jiang Yurou was an apprentice from Jixia Academy, the highest Confucian academy, and her background was said to be unfathomable, she did not receive much real respect in Zhenwu Academy.

Although Jiang Yurou never gave up on him completely in the past four years, and often came to care about his cultivation situation, but in the past six months, she seemed to be completely disappointed with Qin Feng and stopped coming.

It's a little weird today.

Sure enough, Jiang Yurou spoke as soon as she sat down, "Qin Feng, I heard these days that you first had a bad relationship with Liu Zhenwu, and today you beat other classmates at the practice ground..."

"Sure enough..." Qin Feng thought to himself.

Having said this, Jiang Yurou continued in a tone of mourning for his misfortune and indifference to his anger: "Although you refuse to admit it, being kind to others is the essence of doing things. Even a martial artist, martial virtue is very important..."

"Although you may be expelled from the academy tomorrow, I can understand your depression and decadence..."

"But once the most basic morality of being a human being is lost, what is the difference between humans and beasts?"

"Mr. Jiang, what you said is bad!" What Jiang Yurou couldn't believe was that Qin Feng, who had always been silent in the face of her preaching, even impatient, actually refuted her.

"Confucius advocated that the benevolent love others, but there is still the anger of 'what is tolerable and what is not'. If someone does something right, he should be tolerated. If he does something wrong, can he be tolerated?"

"The Asian sage Mencius teaches kindness to others, but it's not for us to be good-natured people who swallow our voices."

Qin Feng continued: "Liu Zhenwu has repeatedly provoked and led people to beat the students, which almost killed the students. Zhou Kai is trying to take the students' positions in the practice field with a large number of people. Should the students swallow their voices?"

"The ancients said that the gentleman is like a god, and the villain is like a ghost. If you don't have a sense of justice, don't ask whether it is right or wrong, and just tolerate it, can you still be a gentleman?"

Although Jiang Yurou was an apprentice of Jixia Academy, Qin Feng was a Confucian sage in his previous life, and her understanding of Confucian classics and meanings surpassed her by many levels.

Jiang Yurou stared at her beautiful eyes, but she was stunned and didn't know how to answer. After a long time, she said in a long voice, "I can't see that your martial arts have not developed much, but Confucianism and Taoism are quite wise..."

Jiang Yurou looked at Qin Feng with an expression of love for talent: "I can come forward to the academy to ask for a clerical teaching position for you, so that you will not be expelled from the academy. You will devote yourself to cultivating Confucianism and Taoism in the future. , achievements are not under me..."

Originally, Jiang Yurou thought that she had spoken, and Qin Feng decided that she would be grateful, but what she did not expect was...

"No need, Teacher Jiang!"

Qin Feng's subtext was that he would definitely be selected by Emperor Wu, but Jiang Yurou did not have such confidence in Qin Feng, and instead sighed.

"If you don't want to stay in Zhenwu Academy, I can also recommend you to teach at Shengwu Academy with a better style of study..."

"If what you said, it was indeed Liu Zhenwu who insulted you. If he was in the Holy Martial Academy, he would have been expelled from the school and swept out of the house... Even the Shenwu Academy..."

"The school motto of Zhenwu Academy is indeed a little too hostile. Such internal friction has killed many geniuses who could have grown up... This is how the first academy in Middle-earth when Emperor Wu was there has become the last school today. One!"

Jiang Yurou sighed and said, "The students of Zhenwu Academy only learn martial arts, but they practice martial arts for no reason. They only care about the weak and the strong. Those who obey me prosper and those who oppose me perish... What they cultivate in this way will only be killing machines!"

"It's not like our Confucianism... If the road of Confucianism and Taoism has not been cut off, how can it be..."

When Jiang Yurou said this, she knew she had lost her words, and quickly covered her mouth. Just as she was about to explain, she found that Qin Feng's eyes were complicated.

He cupped his hands and asked, "Master, do today's Confucians still want to restore the glory of the Confucian saints?"

Jiang Yurou turned pale and hurriedly reached out her hand to stop him and said: "Be careful, Qin Feng, you must know that in this world, only the emperor of martial arts, divine and mighty, can be called an emperor, even a Confucian one. , and can only be called a Confucian monarch..."

"You, remember that calamity comes out of your mouth!" Speaking of this, Jiang Yurou's eyes shifted, revealing a hint of concern.

"Thank you, teacher, for reminding me." Qin Feng stood up and bowed. After a standard student gift, he sent Jiang Yurou away.

"Tomorrow I will go to the Martial Emperor's altar to see your selection, Qin Feng, you have to do your best!"

After Jiang Yurou finished speaking, she hurried back.

Obviously it was Qin Feng's remarks that made her feel something, and she had to rush back to write an article.

Seeing her leaving back, Qin Feng couldn't help sighing: "If she has the method of cultivation, she will realize today that it will not be difficult for her to become a jinshi."

In contrast to the six realms of human martial arts, earth martial arts, heaven martial arts, holy martial arts, divine martial arts, and true martial arts, there are six stages in the Confucian and Taoist cultivation system: Xiucai, Juren, Jinshi, Sub-Saint, Semi-Saint, and Supreme Holy.

Distinguished by the strength of thought power, each stage has different characteristics. If you become the most holy, the power of thought is strong enough to support your soul, and it is almost immortal.

Unlike martial arts, which requires accumulated training in addition to adventures, Confucianism and Taoism are more dependent on epiphany. Just like just now, if Jiang Yurou opens up the road of Confucianism and Taoism, and has an epiphany overnight, it is possible to be promoted to Jinshi, which is equivalent to Tianwu in martial arts. Stronghold.

This is something that warriors can't even imagine.

"It seems that the important task of revitalizing Confucianism and Taoism in the world is up to me!" Qin Feng sent Jiang Yurou away, closed the door, and practiced a set of "Confucianism and Taoism".

Just when he put away the last style, the silver pages of "Confucianism and Taoism" suddenly flew out from his sleeves. Immediately, a clear light appeared, and "Tiandi Jishu" appeared in front of Qin Feng again.

"Tiandi Jishu" quickly opened a page, and as soon as the blank page was stained with silver pages, another picture suddenly appeared!

Thinking of the scene last night when he became a Confucian scholar and triggered "The Book of Heavenly Emperor", Qin Feng couldn't help but say with joy.

"Isn't it a breakthrough to the fourth stage of apprenticeship?"

Sure enough, on that picture, in a simple thatched hut, a young man wearing a bunt was like a tiger and a bear, and he was playing a set of boxing techniques.

There is a small line of writing on the bottom: "On July 11, 1016 in the martial calendar, Qin Feng practiced Confucianism and Taoism Wu Qinxi, broke through the fourth stage of apprenticeship, reached the threshold of human martial arts, and opened the road of martial arts!"

"No wonder!" Qin Feng nodded secretly and said, "It seems that this 'Book of Heavenly Emperor' has something to do with me. As long as the strength breaks through, both Confucianism, Taoism and martial arts will respond!"

"If "Confucianism and Taoism" is the reward for me to become a Confucian scholar, what is the reward for me to step into martial arts?"
