Chapter 399: You can’t win...

Chapter 399: You can’t win...

Trees still need the earth, and the earth also needs to be based on space.

Li Qi walked through the crowd and raised his voice and said: "Practice requires teachers, learning requires seniors, and everything must be based on predecessors."

"What we call clinging people is nothing more than complaining about others and hating themselves. There were Liu Donghe's parents and children present. Confucianism emphasizes filial piety and respects the relationship between father and son. To say that Liu Donghe's son has never borrowed the shadow of his father, it is probably Impossible, then he is also clinging? "

Li Qi finished in one breath and continued: "This is also called clinging, and that is also called clinging. You are the only noble people in the world who have never clung. Is this what you mean, senior?"

Li Qi stepped forward, refuted it, and relieved the Lingxiao Flower God.

The Lingxiao Flower God looked at her gratefully. After all, she was just a Flower God. In terms of words, she was probably not as good as the Confucian monk in front of her.

Confucianism is famous for being talkative. In the past, when witchcraft and humanity were publicly arguing for supremacy, almost all the people on the humanity side were Confucians and famous people, because these two families were the most eloquent among humanity. Debate, cite scriptures.

but……

At this point, Li Qi is not bad either.

He was from the Zhuren lineage, and Zhuren was an important source of ritual officials in the witchcraft and witchcraft... He was actually the ancestor of the famous family before the witchcraft and humans were separated.

There are many rules for blessing people when making sacrifices.

There are different etiquettes to be followed according to different names and positions. Therefore, etiquette officers will be particularly good at identifying names. This craft has become the source of famous people in later generations after the separation of human and witch families.

Mingjia itself is also a tradition that distinguishes 'name' and 'position', and is the direct inheritance of ritual officials.

Zonghe and Zhuren are also the faction with the most ceremonial officials, and Li Qi is actually quite eloquent.

"Oh? Who is this?" The fifth-grade Confucian scholar heard someone refuting his words. When he saw that it was a seventh-grade junior, he did not feel conflicted or disgusted, but showed a curious look.

"Senior, let's focus on the debate. My identity is not important. Or do you think that if there is a big shot standing behind me, you can't afford to offend me, so you have to ask clearly in advance?" Li Qi replied with a smile.

The Confucian scholar shook his head and said with a smile: "Ha, you kid, no matter who is on the stage, just focus on the debate. Don't always use the backstage to suppress others. Otherwise, as you said, the person who puts it up will deceive others." No', the oppressed people 'hate it'."

Lingxiao Flower God waved his sleeves slightly, and his expression became even more displeased.

The conversation between Li Qi and the Confucian scholar had already concluded that her behavior was disgusting.

But she didn't speak.

After all, Li Qi is helping her now.

Unlike Liu Shenzhi, although she doesn't have the tongue, she at least has the brains to know not to cause trouble.

"Okay, senior, as long as you don't want to talk about this, let's continue. Senior doesn't seem to agree with my opinion?" Li Qi took over and said.

He had to speak quickly and open the topic, so that everyone would turn their attention from the "failure of the Lingxiao Flower God" to the "debate between the two".

Changing the topic is useful many times.

The fifth-grade Confucian scholar seemed to notice this, but he did not say anything more. Instead, he said to Li Qi: "It is true. What you said is nothing more than sophistry like a white horse is not a horse. Naturally, I cannot agree with it." ”

"How can clinging to snobbery and taking advantage of the situation be compared together? The theory that a white horse is not a horse confuses the name and reality between colors and entities, and replaces universal phenomena with individuals, so it is a fallacy. And what you kid used The method is nothing more than this.”

"The despicable act of clinging to snobbery is obscured by the relationship between father and son, just like a white horse is not a horse. Boy, if you want to use this kind of rhetoric to defend the Lingxiao Flower God, I'm afraid you are wrong."

After listening to what he said, Li Qi nodded.

It is true that the other party is still capable and everything he said is correct, but he completely dismantled Li Qi's words in an instant.

but……

Just dismantling it is useless.

Li Qi immediately replied with a smile: "Answering questions with questions, and dismantling my words to refute my words, is that all you can do?"

"Okay, then I will ignore your petty tricks and talk to you from the principles." The fifth-grade Confucian scholar said casually.

He didn't think carefully. The junior in front of him was only a seventh-grade man, so it wasn't worth him to go to war. If he really debated seriously, no matter whether he won or lost later, he would have already lost from the beginning.

"You said that everyone borrows strength, but there is an essential difference between borrowing strength and clinging. If the person who borrows strength has a conscience, he will be grateful and grateful. Let's use the example of father and son. Father is kind, so Sons are filial because they are grateful for their father's influence, so they are polite and restrain the kindness in their hearts, so that the world can be peaceful. "

"A wise man has said: A husband's etiquette is carried out from the top to the bottom, and it is applied from the first to the latter. Therefore, if the father is not kind, the son will be unfilial; if the brother is not a friend, the younger brother will be disrespectful; if the husband is unjust, the wife will be disrespectful. Okay, the father is kind because of the courtesy, and the son is grateful because of the courtesy. In the end, the father is kind and the son is filial, and they are both happy. This is the strength and the shadow."

"But the sophistry in your mouth is not the case. There is no gratitude in Lingxiao Flower God's heart, only the intention to use it. If there is gratitude between father and son, the son will not leave his father, not because the other father is stronger and more powerful. When you are rich, you abandon your original father. This is true between husband and wife, brothers, master and disciple."

"But those who cling have no feelings or thoughts in their hearts. Confucius said: 'If their body is upright, they will act without being told; if their body is not upright, they will not obey even though they are told.' So, this is the difference between borrowing force and clinging."

"Lingxiao Flower God is such a villain, rude and indifferent, clinging to you if you have value, and abandoning if you are not. When you are clinging, you can say any sweet words, and when you are abandoning, you can do any cruel thing. He is so despicable, He should have been expelled from Shangyuan, but why are he still flaunting his power here and fluttering his sleeves? It has stained everyone's eyes and stained Baihua's reputation!"

Ling Xiaohua was trembling with pride.

Others around him also began to whisper, their eyes moving back and forth between the Lingxiao Flower Goddess and the fifth-grade Confucian scholar.

Falling in, the opponent has the upper hand this round.

This fifth-grade Confucian scholar was polite and courteous when he argued with Li Qi before, but when he talked about Lingxiao Flower God, he directly stretched out his finger and cursed.

Li Qi only felt a headache.

It was obvious that this fifth-grade Confucian scholar knew the key point and was not deceived by Li Qi at all. He probably just wanted to laugh at Li Qi's little trick.

Arguing with Li Qi? What's the use of arguing?

He came here to drive away Lingxiao Flower God, not to quarrel with Li Qi!

The key point is to directly scold Lingxiao Flower God and let others realize how despicable Lingxiao Flower God is.

Li Qi saw this, but he could only smile bitterly, there was nothing he could do about it.

The fifth grade is definitely very stubborn, and the synonym for stubbornness is ‘firm Taoist heart’.

The source of their values ​​is definitely not obtained from someone or something. This kind of value comes from his own heart and is realized by himself, not passed on by others.

Therefore... they are particularly stubborn, or in other words, patient and determined.

Conclusions drawn purely from one's own heart are the most solid and least susceptible to external influence.

After saying these words, the surrounding onlookers also turned their attention to the Lingxiao Flower God.

At the same time, some people gathered around Lingxiao Flower God.

These are the people she used to win over and write praises for her. When these people wrote the articles, they could no longer look back.

Lingxiao Flower God used Liu Donghe's authentic work as bait to lure them to join the team. If they switch to the opposite side now, they will become repeated villains.

This is the method of Lingxiao Flower God, he can easily tie up some people around him.

They had written articles praising Ling Xiaohua before, but unless they admitted that they were talking nonsense and lying before, it would be difficult to change their camp. So now they are in a dilemma, and they can only pretend to be invincible and retreat to the side. They can do nothing except build up their momentum.

Anyway, if they lose when the time comes, they can just hide away. There is no need to become infamous together with the Lingxiao Flower God.

In addition to these people, there are also some original fans of Lingxiao Flower God standing on the side of Lingxiao Flower God.

These people are the real die-hard supporters.

At this time, someone stood up and said: "That's nonsense. You said that Ling Xiao's eyes are devoid of etiquette and his heart is ungrateful, but is your Confucian etiquette the only one in the world that is correct?!"

Just as this person was about to say something, Li Qi took a sharp breath and quickly gestured to Lingxiao Flower God!

Seeing this, Lingxiao Flower God stretched out his hand to persuade the man to stop, poured wine for him, and whispered a few words in a low voice.

The man stopped unhappily, stopped talking, and prepared to watch Li Qi's performance.

Li Qi, on the other hand, was startled and broke into cold sweat!

Wrong day! This man is so courageous!

It doesn't matter if they discuss the matter of Lingxiao Flower God, or if the two sides argue about the quality of Lingxiao Flower God, they are all trivial matters.

However, if you put forward the statement that 'only Confucianism is right', then it is a fucking moral dispute.

If Taoist strife develops, people will die! Two people will definitely die here today.

Li Qi didn't want to be one of them, so he quickly interrupted the conversation.

Moreover, he also discovered some clues.

The loyal fans of Lingxiao Flower God... none of them seem to be Confucian. At first glance, most of them are alchemists and the like, people who make a living by craftsmanship, and a small number of monks.

Let’s look at the other supporters of the Lingxiao Flower Goddess, the White Horse Temple. The monk probably just wanted to avoid suspicion, so he didn’t come today. Only a small number came to support the scene.

It is precisely because of this that he would blurt out topics that would cause moral disputes without thinking.

For this reason, Li Qi must be the first to speak, even if he can't find anything to say, he must be the first to speak.

So, before the fifth-grade Confucian scholar could speak, Li Qi spoke first: "Senior, you don't have to worry about that, but it did blind your eyes a bit, causing you to misjudge the Lingxiao Flower God, so that's why we have what we have today." The contradiction!”

The face of the fifth-grade Confucian scholar had already darkened, but when he heard Li Qi's words, he looked at Li Qi and said, "Oh? Boy, what do you think?"

Li Qi cupped his hands and said: "Senior said before that because there is benevolence in the heart, one behaves politely, so there is kindness and filial piety, and the world is unified. May I ask senior, what is benevolence?"

"A gentleman will not be successful if he is not benevolent, and will not be born if he is not righteous. Benevolence and righteousness are the nature of a true man. This is the reason for benevolence." The Confucian scholar replied solemnly.

The understanding of benevolence and righteousness is the top priority of Confucianism, so when he answered this question, he looked very serious. This is a sign of respect and emphasis on his own path.

Then, Li Qi said: "Senior people said that those who are unkind will lose their original intention. If they keep dating for a long time, they will abuse it, and if they enjoy it for a long time, they will become obscene. But a benevolent person will be at peace with his benevolence and will not be uncomfortable. A wise person will be conducive to benevolence and not easy to maintain it. , although the cover is different in depth, it cannot be taken away by external objects. "

"So, the advantage of the Lingxiao Flower God is just greed and evil? He knows that he is good and he must want to get it?"

"Everyone knows that Lingxiaohua does not rely on its patrons to dominate and prosper. It has nothing to do with being ruthless in her heart."

"Senior said that she only dared to come back with the support of Liu Donghe. In my opinion, she is just cowardly and has no confidence to speak out. It is admirable to not be afraid of power, but if you can't do it, you will be despised? "

Li Qi quoted a famous saying, which means that acknowledging the restraint of benevolence on nature can make people feel grateful.

So here comes the question, Lingxiao Flower Goddess said it was snobbish clinging, is what she did really clinging caused by greed and desire?

I just want to help Lingxiao Flower God to get some relief.

At this point, Li Qi already felt a headache. He couldn't argue with the other party's theory. He could only rely on guesswork to excuse Ling Xiao Flower God's character... which meant that he was completely at a disadvantage.

"Why not?" The Confucian scholar raised his head and asked.

Obviously, in his opinion, Lingxiao Flower God is this kind of person.

Then, he continued: "Boy, you don't know who the Lingxiao Flower God is, but I will tell you that she had a bad reputation in Shangyuan in the past. She turned a blind eye to the little-known Flower Gods, but she was keen on pursuing the Big Flower God. Their banquets were despicable. In the past, when she was in the sixth rank, Sunflower, Heather, and Hibiscus were all humiliated by her, but the three fifth-rank flower gods, Xinyi, Wangyou, and Cherry, were often befriended by her. "

"And then, she climbed up the Buddhist wall of White Horse Temple. Did Xinyi, Wangyou, and Yingtao accept her invitation?"

"The Lingxiao Flower God is more evil than good. He has a strong nature, but what he hates is poverty and lowliness. He is really despicable!" The fifth-grade Confucian scholar loudly accused him.

At this time, Li Qi was speechless.

No idea.

He couldn't compare to this Confucian scholar. After all, he was in the fifth rank. Not to mention his cultivation, but just in terms of knowledge and experience, he was above him. It was pretty good to be able to pass these tricks...

He bowed his hands, shook his head helplessly, and stepped back.

Lingxiao Flower God may die, he tried his best.

but……

The Lingxiao Flower Goddess on the side couldn't help but trembled after hearing Li Qi say "I'm just weak and have no confidence."

She looked at Li Qi outside, cupped his hands, shook his head and exited the circle.

For hundreds of years, she never thought...

Just one sentence actually shook her Taoist heart.

The person next to him suddenly noticed something and asked doubtfully: "Flower God, why is your breath... so messed up? What's wrong with your cultivation?"
