    no, 219 last lesson

    In the blink of an eye, it was already the season of March in Yangchun. Huang Junming stood on the podium of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and looked at the Taoists, old and young, who came to study. He was filled with emotion. Since Li Shimin ascended the throne and issued an edict ordering Taoist temple masters from all over the world to come to Tianxian Palace.  It has been more than half a year since I started studying.  Although Huang Junming had relatively little lecture time, he still had great affection for these first group of people.

    In the past six months, Huang Junming has taught them the newly revised doctrine, taught them how to preach and how to develop believers.  How to get rid of misunderstandings about Taoism in your mind.  They even teach them how to give back to society.  Today is the last lesson Huang Junming teaches them.  After today, they will return to their respective Taoist temples after the exam and use what they have learned in Tianxian Palace.  Create a new chapter in Taoism.

    "Fellow Taoists, today's class is the last class you will study in Tianxian Palace. What Pindao should teach has already been taught. Now the rest is up to you. Pindao has his reasons.  I believe that with your joint efforts, the Taoist Church will gradually move towards glory. And you are the messengers who will open this new chapter and spread the light of Taoism to every corner of the world." Huang Junming said in a heavy tone, standing in front of him  It seems like I don't know what to say anymore.  In the past six months, Huang Junming has said too much to them, but at that time, he was so talkative that he didn't feel that he was short of words, but now.  .  .  I really don’t know how to speak.

    "There is a saying in the secular world that there are four irons in life. The so-called irons are that they have passed out of the same window together. The two irons have carried guns together, the third irons have been whoring together, and the four irons have shared the stolen goods together.  We Xuanmen people, carrying guns, being a prostitute, and sharing the spoils are somewhat unrelated. However, these classmates are quite close. You have become familiar with each other from strangers, from one place to another, thousands of miles apart.  Get to know each other here. Discuss Tao with each other, enjoy life together, and feel the essence of Taoism. I believe that you will miss it when you are praised by the world as a true immortal in the future. I will be proud that you spend time together in Tianxian Palace.  Live your life." Huang Junming stood in front and said softly, and the Taoists below listened quietly when Huang Junming talked about the four irons of life.  Some Taoists twitched the corners of their mouths a few times knowingly, but when Huang Junming finished this paragraph, he unconsciously looked for the person he knew best and was the best friend among the people present.

    "Today, Pindao plans to give a lecture later. Our Tianxian Palace has printed a booklet with a small number of pages, slightly more than your total number of people, with a total of 385 pages. Although each page has  There is something printed on the front, but the back is blank. Come out to a few of you and pass this booklet out. Pindao is talking slowly."

    When 371 pamphlets were distributed to everyone, the dark blue cover used simple lines to outline a picture of Lao Tzu riding a green ox, and in the blank space next to it, it read "The Immortal"  "Record of Classmates from the First Period of Palace Taoist Training", a Taoist with curiosity.  Gently turning the page, I saw Huang Junming's message on the first page.

    “In addition to a portrait that is 70% similar to Huang Junming himself, in the blank space under the portrait, there is this line of text.  A century-old Taoist, his common name is Huang Junming and his courtesy name is Gu Shi.  In the original immortal world, Haotian Golden Tower, the Supreme Supreme Natural Wonderful One, Milo, the True Jade Emperor, is the scribe.  In the eighth year of Wude's reign in Tang Dynasty, he traveled to the lower world.  Build the Immortal Palace and make it the Immortal Chief.  The emperor appointed him as the leader of Taoism in the world.  In the ninth year of Wude, the new emperor ascended the throne.  Summon all the masters of palaces and temples in the world to practice in Tianxian Palace.  He has been a teacher for a hundred years, which lasted more than half a year.  .  .  .  address.  Dongshan Tianxian Palace in Chang'an, Tang Dynasty.

    Scroll down again, and on the second page there is a portrait of Yuan Tiangang, and this line of text.  "Tiangangzi. The common name is Yuan Tiangang, a native of Yizhou. In the Sui Dynasty, he was the Yanguan Order, and in the Tang Dynasty, he was the Huoshan Order. He is familiar with the scriptures and is proficient in fortune-telling, fortune-telling, and divination. In the eighth year of Wude, he was ordered by the emperor to go to Tianxian Palace to coordinate  A Taoist for hundreds of years, teaching Taoism to all. Compiling classics Address: Tianxian Palace, Dongshan, Tang Dynasty."

    As for the third page, the fourth page is about Sun Simiao and Li Chunfeng, the fifth to the fourteenth pages are about Huang Junming's disciples, and the fifteenth page onwards is about the Taoists who came to learn.  .  For example, Ye Fashan on page 15 writes this: "Ye Fashan, courtesy name Daoyuan, was born in Kuocang, Kuozhou (now Songyang, Lishui, Zhejiang). He has practiced Taoism for four generations and has the skills of nourishment and divination Martial virtues  In the ninth year, he was ordered to go to Tianxian Palace to study Taoist scriptures Address: Xuandu Temple, Chang'an City, Tang Dynasty."

    In this way, on page 385, in addition to Huang Junming and a group of Taoist priests from Tianxian Palace, the portraits, names, place of origin, deeds, and addresses of the palaces where they lived were all written down for the 371 people who came to study.  Clearly.  Some clever Taoist priests have already understood that the purpose of this booklet is to facilitate these people to communicate with each other after returning to their own temples.

    "I believe that you all can see that this pamphlet that Pindao distributed to you is nothing more than leaving you with a thought and an opportunity for you to interact with each other in the future. ThenThe blank page at the back was for Pindao to think about leaving some messages to each other. The classmates had been together for half a year and were about to go their separate ways.  I believe you all have a lot to say to each other, so this blank space is a place for you to write farewell messages to each other.  Of course, you can write in private, after all, Pindao has to teach you the last lesson today.  "

    Hearing this, the Taoist priests in the audience packed up this thin booklet and put it carefully in their lapels. It would be a lie to say that after half a year of getting along, they had no feelings for each other, and there are very few Taoist priests.  Like Confucian scholars, classmates study hard.  Therefore, I attach great importance to the meaning contained in this booklet.

    "Okay, the last lesson Pindao teaches today is patriotism!" Huang Junming saw that everyone had put away their books and said loudly: "Pindao believes that you have all mastered those things in Taoism, so Pindao won't do it today.  When we talk about Taoism, we talk about patriotism.”

    Huang Junming actually doesn’t want to talk about this topic, but it’s hard for Li Shimin to explain not talking about it.  However, it is easy to talk about patriotic topics. The specific things have been talked about in modern times. However, I believe that in the Tang Dynasty, which was more than 1,500 years away from modern times, these Taoists should be able to hear freshly: "Patriotism"  What does it mean? In layman's terms, it means loving one's own country. Pindao has said more than once that Taoist teachers originated from a unique religion in China. Everything is closely related to China, and the countries in China are  It is our common home, and we need to protect, revere, and love it. Tao has no country, but Taoists have nationalities. Because we are in the Tang Dynasty, we must contribute our own strength to the Tang Dynasty. As for how to contribute, we will not know for the time being.  Let’s not talk about it. When it comes to patriotism, patriotism does not mean just talking and shouting a few slogans. For example, if a foreign enemy invades the country’s interests, the Chinese people only know how to protest or shout to fight, but when the day comes to fight,  If they are allowed to participate in the battle, many people who shout slogans will disappear and find no trace. This is not patriotism! Patriotism must be put into practical actions."

    When Huang Junming talked about this, he couldn't help but think about certain events in this world. Whenever there are major national events, there will always be some people who shout slogans louder than anyone else, but in fact they don't care.  Even when he was actually asked to take action, he retreated. Although Huang Junming was a Taoist priest, who was a Taoist priest who was not patriotic and bloodless?  It can be said that Taoism is the religion that has always passed down Chinese culture. Amidst the cultural fault caused by the Yuan and Qing Dynasties, Taoism is the only religion that has preserved the lower part of Chinese culture.  For example, thoughts, living habits, and clothing.  .  .  etc.

    "But before taking practical actions, you must understand. What is the national interest? What is good for the country and what is good for the people. You must also understand the current situation of the country. For example, in the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was extorting money and resentment among the people.  Bones are lying on the road. Patriotism at this time means that when the country is in civil strife, foreigners from the region take advantage of it. Rather than blindly following Emperor Yang of Sui and helping the emperor to do evil. Another example is the Tang Dynasty we are in now. The Tang Dynasty was established only ten years ago.  All are prosperous. Patriotism at this time means thinking about how to make the country more prosperous and powerful. Of course, in the Tang Dynasty, there are always Xiaoxiao who are hindering it. Regarding this, patriotism means letting Xiaoxiao disappear. Last year, the Turks came to attack. What is patriotism?  ? Resisting foreign enemies and appeasing the victims is patriotism. One day, the Tang Dynasty and the Turks started fighting, so what is patriotism? Stabilizing the country's stability and spying on enemy intelligence. Being in the best interest of the country is patriotism."

    "Everyone in this world shoulders a sacred mission, and among these missions we need to shoulder together is patriotism. Patriotism requires not only understanding and analyzing the current situation of the country, but also understanding the challenges and pressures facing the country.  Establish a correct concept of patriotism. Clarify your personal ideals and aspire to serve the country. Practice patriotism and love the country in no particular order, regardless of age, age or belief. Remember. To serve the road, you must first understand your heart. To understand your heart, you must love your country first."

    ??Halo, it has become the main theme.  Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I can’t finish the nine thousand words today.  I'm so depressed. I took exams all day long and have no time at all.  Five hundred yuan for perfect attendance is not a small amount, so I can’t give up yet, it’s crazy.  Step up the time code.  If we can’t reach 9,000 words by 10:30, we may still have to make up the 9,000 words.  Southwest will revise it before tomorrow’s chapter update.  Hey, it’s troublesome to take care of both the exam and the novel during the exam period.  Although this final exam is not as important as the accounting certificate that I took a few days ago, you can't go home to your parents with a red lantern hanging high, right?  (To be continued)
