Chapter 437: Preaching
One year later
In one year, Qingyang Town has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The original small town has now become the largest city in the Great Yan Dynasty. Qingyang City was built outside Linjia Mountain.
Linjia Mountain was not originally called Linjia Mountain. Since the Lin family of the former Qingyang Town moved here, the mountain was renamed Linjia Mountain.
Linjia Mountain witnessed the rise of the branch of the Lin family in the former Qingyang Town.
First, the Lin family moved here, and then Qingyang Town was changed to Qingyang City.
"Report, the imperial envoy of the Great Yan Dynasty wants to see you."
A loud voice broke the silence of Linjia Mountain.
In a courtyard on the top of the mountain, Lin Qingtan came to Lin Qingtan with tea.
"What does the royal family want to do?" Ye Feng asked.
"This time he doesn't want to make you a national teacher, but a god." Lin Qingtan replied.
"I am a god. Why do I need him to confer me a title?"
"But the royal family of the Great Yan Dynasty doesn't know."
"Qingtan, are you tired?" Ye Feng asked.
"Not bad."
Lin Qingtan was stunned for a moment, then realized something in his mind, suddenly startled, and said shyly: "Young Master Ye, you are here again."
"Yeah."
"Last night we just..."
"You also said, that was last night."
"Young Master Ye, you still have to give a sermon later." Lin Qingtan reminded Ye Feng.
A year ago, after Ye Feng came back. He asked the Lin family to announce to the world that he would give a sermon at Linjiashan on the first day of the Lunar New Year a year later.
Ye Feng resurrected the elegant old man in the Nirvana Tomb and transformed the Feng Shui of one side. Ye Feng's reputation spread throughout the Eastern Region of Tianxuan Continent. Not only did the warriors of the Great Yan Dynasty gather in Qingyang City, but even the outstanding children of the nine major sects in the Eastern Region, and even some elders, arrived in Qingyang City with half-belief and half-doubt.
Qingyang City is now full. The economy has achieved unprecedented development. Some people have made more money than they could ever make in their entire lives in just half a year.
As the first power in Qingyang Town, the Lin family also made a lot of money by relying on Ye Feng's lectures.
In this regard, Lin Dong, Lin Qingtan, Lin Langtian and others wished they could set up a living tablet for Ye Feng and burn incense to worship him every day.
"There is still half an hour before the lecture. We can still play for half an hour. Look, what do you think I have?" Ye Feng held a tool in his hand.
"Is it given by the Yin-Yang Taoist again?" Lin Qingtan blushed.
"Well, he is talented in this area. This is the latest product. Let's go in and try it out." Ye Feng held Lin Qingtan's hand and pulled her into the room.
At the foot of Linjia Mountain.
People from various forces filled the surrounding mountains. The number of people attracted here by the lecture exceeded 10 million. The top and foot of the mountain were full of people.
"It's time. Why hasn't it started yet?"
Buzz
A person just complained like this.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the sky.
Colorful clouds appeared thousands of miles above Linjia Mountain.
"Is this... an illusion?" A disciple from Jiutian Taiqing Palace questioned the strange phenomenon in the sky.
"It shouldn't be. How much ability does it take to perform such a big illusion?"
There were more and more colorful clouds in the sky. From the clouds, a ray of light bloomed.
The light shone on a thousand-meter-high stone statue at the foot of Linjia Mountain. The stone statue came alive.
Behind the stone statue, ten beautiful halos appeared. In addition, there were ten golden soul rings under the feet of the stone statue. It seemed to be a voice from the ancient times, spreading to every corner around like an ancient bell. The sound was shocking and made people respectful.
"The Tao can be spoken of, but it is not the real Tao; the name can be named, but it is not the real name. The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth, and the named is the mother of all things. Therefore, always be without desire, so as to observe its wonders; always have desire, so as to observe its boundaries. These two come from the same source but have different names, and are both called mysterious, and the more mysterious, the more mysterious, the door to all wonders."
"Everyone in the world knows that beauty is beauty, and this is already ugly; everyone knows that goodness is goodness, and this is already ungood. Therefore, existence and non-existence give birth to each other, difficulty and ease complement each other, length and shortness compare, high and low lean against each other, sounds harmonize with each other, and the front and back follow each other. Therefore, the sage does nothing and teaches without words. All things are created without refusing, they are born without possession, they act without relying, and they do not stay after their achievements. Because they do not stay, they do not leave."
"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and they treat all things as straw dogs; sages are not benevolent, and they treat the people as straw dogs. Between heaven and earth, their Like a bellows? It is empty but not bent, and it comes out more when it moves. It is better to keep the middle than to talk too much. "
"The sky is long and the earth is long. The reason why the sky and the earth can be long and long is that they do not produce themselves, so they can live long. Therefore, the sage puts himself behind others and his body is ahead of others, and puts himself outside others and his body survives. Isn't it because he is selfless? Therefore, he can achieve his own goals. "
"The highest good is like water. Water is good at benefiting all things without competing, and it stays in places that people hate, so it is close to the Tao. It lives in a good place, has a good heart, is kind to others, speaks truthfully, governs properly, is capable in doing things, and acts at the right time. Only because it does not compete, there is no blame. "
"The highest, the lower ones know that it exists. The next, they are close to it and praise it. The next, they are afraid of it. The next, they insult it. Where there is no trust, there is no trust. The words are precious. When the work is done, the people all say that it is natural. "
"There is a thing that was born before the heaven and the earth. It is silent and lonely, independent and unchanging, and it goes around without danger. It can be the mother of the world. I don't know its name, so I call it Tao. I force it to be called Da. Da means to go, to go means to go far, and to go far means to return. Therefore, Tao is great, heaven is great, earth is great, and king is also great. There are four great things in the world, and the king is one of them. Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, heaven follows Tao, and Tao follows nature."
"Always have no name, although it is simple and small, no one in the world can be a servant. If the princes and kings can keep it, all things will be their own guests. Heaven and earth combine to send down sweet dew, and the people will be balanced without being ordered. When the system is first established, the name is already there, and the man will know when to stop. Knowing when to stop can avoid danger. The Tao in the world is like a river to the sea."
"The Tao is vast, and it can be turned left and right. All things rely on it to live without saying goodbye, and it is not named after its achievements. It clothes and nourishes all things without saying goodbye. If you are the master, you will always have no desires, so you can be called small; if all things return to you but are not the master, you can be called great. Because you never think of yourself as great, you can achieve greatness. "
"The Tao gives birth to it, virtue nurtures it, things shape it, and momentum makes it."
"The opposite is the movement of the Tao; the weak is the use of the Tao. All things in the world are born from existence, and existence is born from non-existence."
"The Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things. All things carry the yin and embrace the yang, and the rushing qi makes them harmonious."
"The way of heaven is to reduce the surplus and make up for the deficiency. The way of man is not so, to reduce the deficiency and serve the surplus."
"Truthful words are not beautiful, beautiful words are not trustworthy; good people do not argue, and those who argue are not good; knowledgeable people are not broad, and broad people do not know. The sage does not accumulate, and the more he gives to others, the more he has; the more he gives to others, the more he has. The way of heaven is to benefit but not to harm. The way of the sage is to act but not to compete. "
