Chapter 287: Discussing the Hundred Schools of Thought!

"The Way of the Sage is no different from the daily use of the people!"

Upon hearing this, Nian Duan's body couldn't help but tremble.

Duanmu Rong also tasted the meaning of this sentence and couldn't help but whisper it, looking at Su Xuan curiously.

The breadth of mind displayed by this Yin-Yang School Sect Master exceeded their expectations.

After a long silence, Nian Duan spoke, "Lord Master Master Xuantian has a vast mind, Nian Duan admires you!"

"In your hands, the Yin-Yang School might truly become famous in the world!"

The previous Yin-Yang School was brave and fierce, viewing all living things as ants. Although it broke away from the Daoist School, it was like the opposite of the Daoist School, not to mention extreme. But after Su Xuan succeeded as the Yin-Yang School Sect Master, all this began to change.

This change was visible.

In the battle to destroy Han, the Yin-Yang School went to provide disaster relief, helping those common people at the bottom whom they had looked down upon in the past. Now, Su Xuan even ordered the Metal Department Elder to compile a medical book, intending to popularize it to the world.

Earlier, the agricultural tools seen by the Six-Fingered Black Knight were also the work of the Yin-Yang School.

If they could be successfully improved, it would be enough to benefit countless farmers 980.

"With my own strength, perhaps I can change some things, but in the end, human strength has its limits, and one person's strength is thin!"

"I am still the same as before, please come to help me!"

"Whether the Yin-Yang School can be famous in the world is not important; what is important is that the people of the world can benefit from it!"

Nian Duan was silent. In fact, after hearing Su Xuan's sentence "The Way of the Sage is no different from the daily use of the people," she was already moved. But after hearing Su Xuan's sincere words again, she did not rush to answer, but after deep thought, she asked Su Xuan another question, "You are different from many people of the Hundred Schools of Thought I have seen. I really want to know, why did you choose such a path?"

"Is such a path not good?"

"Promoting medical arts, then everyone will be free from the suffering of illness; improving agricultural tools, then the people will be free from the suffering of hunger, and everyone will be able to eat their fill!"

Nian Duan was silent again. Such a path was, of course, good. Upon learning Su Xuan's purpose, intending to implement the learning of the Yin-Yang School into the daily use of the people (aied), she once thought of the predecessors of the Medical School and the founder of the Mohist School.

Such people, counting the world, were truly too few.

Su Xuan was also silent for a while. Organizing his words in his mind, he said, "In the past, in the Jixia Academy of the Qi State, the Hundred Schools of Thought contended, discussing the way of saving the world and governing the country. Regarding the way of saving the world and governing the country, each school had its own insights, but in fact, there were differences. Their way of saving the country and governing the country was mostly aimed at the upper-class monarchs, and they rarely cared about the common people at the bottom…"

"Mencius said: The people are the most important, the state comes second, and the monarch is the least important. Although Does Xun Zi also said: The monarch is the boat; the common people are the water. Water can carry the boat, and water can overturn the boat."

"They might truly worry about the common people, but besides them, the rest of the Confucian School does not necessarily care about the life and death of the common people at the bottom."

"Rather than talking big, it is better to do some practical things!" ===== CHAPTER 289 =====
