"I want to read the Law of Dao, all the Law of Dao in the Hall of Dao!" Fang Zhengzhi voiced out his thoughts.
In the past month, he had diligently memorized the Law of Dao every day. However, he discovered a pattern. The more he read, the less he understood. As such, he felt that he had to find a new "battlefield".
Let his father go out to buy books every day? Not to mention the lack of money, just the journey alone was quite tiring. Furthermore, the books he bought were not even enough for him to read.
"Sure, but you have to be able to answer my questions!" Wang Anhua nodded and didn't say much.
Fang Zhengzhi slowly sat up once again. His gaze was calm, but his heart was filled with excitement. His hard work paid off. After waiting for a month, the fish had finally taken the bait!
It was often said that every scholar had a heart that cherished talent. Fang Zhengzhi thought that since he had nothing to lose, he might as well come to the Hall of Dao every day to try his luck. Firstly, he could let others know that he was eavesdropping outside the Hall of Dao. This would help him learn how to read in the future. Secondly, if he was lucky and attracted the attention of a teacher, the benefits would be immense...
One question, Fang Zhengzhi only needed the other party to ask him one question. He had absolute confidence that the other party would ask him a second question!
He had imagined meeting the teacher countless times. Fang Zhengzhi had also thought of pretending to be an obedient child, answering whatever the other party asked.
But no matter how he thought about it, he felt that the greatest benefit of doing so would be getting a chance to enter the Hall of Dao to study. He might not even get it.
Even if he got the chance, was he really going to learn the "Three Character Classic" with those who had just started?
Not only was it a waste of time, it would also lower his intelligence. All he wanted was the Law of Dao, the right to read the entire Law of Dao!
As such, Fang Zhengzhi used a more direct method.
Psychological method!
"Sir, please ask." Fang Zhengzhi's tone was clearly much better this time.
Wang Anhua smiled slightly, seemingly satisfied with Fang Zhengzhi's sudden change in attitude.
"Virtuous like water, what do you mean?" Wang Anhua asked casually.
When Fang Zhengzhi heard this, he frowned slightly. He felt that under normal circumstances, Wang Anhua would ask him some child-level questions. For example, recite the "Three Character Classic", or write a few words from the "Hundred Family Names".
But he did not expect Wang Anhua to use the "Tao Te Ching" from his previous life.
It was really strange.
Every day, when he slept outside the Hall of Dao, he could roughly hear the contents of the lectures. Up until now, the lectures had only reached the Thousand Character Classic.
You're asking me this? Fang Zhengzhi was confused.
Give up? Continue to pretend to be low-key? Fang Zhengzhi felt that this was the best course of action. However, he was unwilling to do so. After all, he had worked hard for more than a month to get this opportunity. If he gave it up, his cultivation progress would be severely delayed.
"Hehe … You can't answer?" Wang Anhua chuckled lightly and turned to leave.
"Wait!" Fang Zhengzhi stopped Wang Anhua.
"Have you thought of something?" Wang Anhua turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi.
Fang Zhengzhi was conflicted, but he really wanted the right to read books.
"Perfection is like water. Water benefits all living things, but it does not compete with others. It is similar to Dao. "Fang Zhengzhi gritted his teeth and said the answer.
Wang Anhua's question was about being virtuous like water. This phrase came from the eighth chapter of the "Tao Te Ching", "Dealing with the World". This chapter had a total of two paragraphs. Fang Zhengzhi remembered the first sentence, but he couldn't remember the second part clearly. Hence, he simply left it out.
When he heard Fang Zhengzhi's words, Wang Anhua's eyes narrowed. His eyes flashed with shock. He only wanted to ask about Perfection is like water, but he did not expect Fang Zhengzhi to point out the origin of Perfection is like water.
In that case, the solution to Shangshan Ruoshui would naturally not be a problem.
Indeed, after Fang Zhengzhi said the origin, he continued to speak.
"The essence of Perfection is like water. Water nourishes all living things, but it does not compete with others. It lives in places that people hate, so it is close to Dao. "
"Good! Good answer! I did not expect the Southern Mountain Village to have such a self-taught scholar? Haha … from today onwards, if you want to borrow books, you can call me from the back door of the Hall of Dao! "Wang Anhua's expression was complicated, but he did not ask further. He had already gotten the answer he wanted.
"Can I ask you a question?" Fang Zhengzhi called out to Wang Anhua again.
"Sure, ask away!" Wang Anhua stopped.
"How do I access Dao?"
"Access Dao?! Haha … have I accessed Dao before? "Wang Anhua was slightly taken aback. A six year old child asking him how to access Dao surprised him.
"Since you are lecturing in the Hall of Dao, you naturally have not accessed Dao." Fang Zhengzhi replied without hesitation.
"You are smart. Yes, I have not accessed Dao. To access Dao … is too difficult! But, since you asked me, I will say one thing. The Dao of All Creations is based on the human being! This is also what my teacher once taught me! "After Wang Anhua finished speaking, he directly entered the Hall of Dao.
"The Dao of All Creations is based on the human being?!" Fang Zhengzhi fell into deep thought when he heard Wang Anhua's words.
…
At night, a bird with a body as white as snow and claws as sharp as knives flew out of the Hall of Dao. It flew into the night sky and disappeared with a flap of its wings …
A day later, the flying beast landed in an incomparably huge mansion. At the entrance of the mansion, there was a plaque made of pure gold hanging high above. On it, there were three bright red words, "Divine Constabulary".
Then, a sealed letter was sent to a study by a soldier. Lolita Chi Guyan, who was wearing a sky blue robe, looked at the letter in front of her. Her starry eyes glimmered with a faint light, and her cherry lips curved into a proud smile.
"Fang Zhengzhi?! Haha … after ignoring him for a month, he finally took the bait! "
…
…
The Dao of All Creations is based on the human being?!
Fang Zhengzhi had been lying on his bed for the past few days. This was the only sentence in his mind. It was not difficult to understand the meaning of this sentence.
The difficult part was how to relate the meaning of this sentence to Accessing Dao.
Previously, General Li from the Divine Constabulary said that in order to master the Dao of All Creations, one must first understand all creations. Now, Wang Anhua from the Hall of Dao said that the Dao of All Creations is based on the human being?!
No matter how he looked at it, these two people seemed to contradict each other …
Did he believe General Li? Or Wang Anhua? Or were both of them right?
Fang Zhengzhi was unable to weigh the pros and cons. Over this period of time, through constant hard work, he had made great progress in his cultivation. The number of leaves he saw in his dreams had increased from one to five, and the number of water droplets had increased from one to five.
At the same time, his control over his body had become more and more precise.
The flow of his blood and the contraction of his meridians had long been under perfect control. He could even feel something unknown in his body.
If he had to give this thing a name, he felt that it would be more appropriate to call it muscle.
He could control muscle? This was something unimaginable to the Fang Zhengzhi in the past. But now, this feeling was very strong.
However, he still could not control it completely. He could only control a part of it. For example, the muscles at the tip of his fingers could become more flexible, and slightly harder. Or the skin on the surface of his arm, he could also control the changes …
He did not know what was the use of being able to control muscle, but, it felt pretty good.
Hang on …
Control? Controlling the self? The Dao of All Creations is based on the human being!
In an instant, Fang Zhengzhi felt that the question that had been bothering him for a long time seemed to have been answered. Could it be that … in order to control all creations, one must first be able to control oneself?
Understood! Understood!
All creations are born from the heart, and all creations are based on the human being!
Now that his heart had already sprouted, those water droplets should be the source of his control over his body. As long as he could control his own body perfectly.
Then …
When the conditions were right, success would follow!
Excitement, excitement, all the questions that had been bothering him seemed to have been solved at this moment. Fang Zhengzhi could not help but want to try again. He flipped over and stood up from his bed, opened the window and leapt into the courtyard.
When he looked at the fist-sized green rock in front of him again, Fang Zhengzhi still felt a little anxious.
After all, he had paid a painful price the previous time.
"If I want to succeed, there must be sacrifices!"
Fang Zhengzhi gritted his teeth and took a deep breath. He slowly adjusted his body and controlled his muscles to gather at the palm of his right hand …
Gradually, he had a feeling that the muscle density in his palm was becoming stronger …
A little stronger, just a little stronger!
"I'm here, I'm here … this is the feeling! Don't stop! "
Fang Zhengzhi suddenly shouted, and his right palm instantly chopped down towards the green rock.
"…"
After a short moment of silence, Fang Zhengzhi's little face once again became somewhat twisted.
"So painful!"
Fang Zhengzhi very "happily" jumped up from the ground, then, he hopped and hopped back into his own room through the window …
"Kacha!"
A faint sound rang out after Fang Zhengzhi left. On the green rock in the courtyard, a finger-long crack instantly appeared …
