Tracing China: Through history, dialogue between ancient and modern

Chapter 25
Hangu Pass under the night, quiet, simple, deep, distant...

An ancient music sounded, heavy historical ancient music, every note was played by musical instruments of the Spring and Autumn Period.

Ancient music, with the picture more than 2000 years ago.

Immediately, people are deeply immersed in it and feel a strong resonance. The audience watching the program feels like they are in it, being impacted by historical time and space, and their body and mind follow the musical notes one by one, beating involuntarily.

The various schools of thought left.

In the dim night, accompanied by a green bull, Lao Tzu looked out of Hangu Pass, his pair of deep eyes seemed to be able to penetrate time and space, it was shocking.

The eyes of a sage are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Retrace the program of Huaxia.

It's the end.

Lin Feng said, "The younger generations want to ask a question that has plagued future generations for thousands of years."

The traces of Lao Tzu after leaving Hangu Pass in the west is an "eternal mystery"...

Standing under a bright moon, Lao Tzu was surrounded by white light, like an old fairy from heaven who descended into the world, he said quietly:

"Where will the old man go when he drives the green ox and leaves Hangu Pass in the west?"

Lin Feng nodded and said, "I hope the old man can give me a clear explanation."

In modern society.

You can often hear the tomb of Confucius, Sun Wu, Han Feizi, etc., but Lao Tzu is missing.

Where did this millennium sage go?
Where is it buried?

It has always been a mystery.

It's a pity that people in later generations don't know which direction to turn when they want to admire and pay respects.

today.

The secret is finally about to be revealed.

Countless viewers held their breaths and stared at the screen without blinking, for fear of missing any details.

Where did Lao Tzu go?

It should not be a fairy.

From the public's point of view, there is a high probability that they will go out of Hangu Pass to spread the essence of "Tao".

Lao Tzu still looked up at Hangu Pass, his expression became a little lonely, his eyes dimmed and he said:
"Do you know why this old man wants to stay away from the Central Plains alone, and why he wants to go out of Hangu Pass alone?"

Lin Feng fell silent.

He is just a modern man more than 2000 years later.

Even with system support.

There is no way to predict the prophet!

At that moment, he was standing behind Lao Tzu under the bright moon, and expressed his point of view.

……

Laozi used to be a small official in charge of history books of the Zhou royal family for many years.

The reason why he wanted to go west and leave the customs was because he thought that the current Zhou Dynasty's rule was "innocent" and disappointed Lao Tzu, so he wanted to leave.

Where will he go then?

Laozi is a person who admires the ancient sages very much. He once hoped to travel all over the world and visit the lands of sages.

As for leaving because of "no way", it is best to find "youdao".

Combined with his westward journey, Lao Tzu's general destination becomes clear.

Going out of Guanxi...to visit the land of sages...and then to find "Youdao"!
The combination of the three, this location should be the modern Tianshui land outside.

Where is the land of heaven and water?

It refers to the sacred mountain "Kunlun"!
According to legend, it is the birthplace of the ancient mythical figures Fuxi and Nuwa. Speaking of ancient sages, is there anyone more noble than Fuxi and Nuwa, who are known as the "ancestors of humanity"?

And if you want to find "youdao", where is there more "youdao" than the place where Fuxi and Nuwa were born and educated?
Lin Feng guessed that Lao Tzu was a Tibetan history guard in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. He learned a lot and developed a set of knowledge, which is the "Tao Te Ching" we see today.

Undoubtedly, people today recognize Lao Tzu's thoughts and think him great.

But at that time, because he researched it, he always wanted to make it public, right?

But if you don't have a bosom friend, you won't be recognized.

He also said that he was a psychopath, and only when he was old and confused would he say that kind of fallacy.

It is conceivable that when a person is already old, and then he is considered to have a psychological problem, he will talk inconsequentially.

Then, there is no need to keep the history of Tibet.

If he didn't think he was old and foolish, he probably would have to move his head.

It is because of this that Lao Tzu had to go west to Hangu Pass.

This sad reminder of Laozi’s experience, including Laozi’s full of thoughts, is hidden in No. 20 of the "Tao Te Ching". Fortunately, Laozi has a certain level of self-cultivation, so he just complained and laughed at himself.

Ordinary people can't see this, because the "Tao Te Ching" is all about Taoism and virtue. Everyone interprets it in terms of morality. Who would have thought that Lao Tzu would include some of his experiences in it?What's more, what Lao Tzu said is relatively cryptic, just like that one, which implies the length of the "Tao".

But how far is it from Ah?
What is the difference between good and evil?
What people are afraid of must not be afraid.It's desolate, it's still young.

Everyone is hey, like enjoying a prison, like climbing a spring platform.

I'm alone and it's not a sign, like a baby's child.

Xie Xi seems to have nowhere to go.

Everyone has more than enough, but I am alone.My fool's heart is too chaotic.

Ordinary people are clear, I am alone and faint, ordinary people check, I am alone.

Everyone has it, but I am stubborn and despicable, I am different from others, and I value my mother.

……

From this article, Lin Feng saw the loneliness of this old man, looking in all directions, it was like a desert, there was no like-minded person, no one who understood him.

On the way out of Hangu Pass in the west, people are bustling and bustling, bustling like a sacrifice, and as happy as going to a theater during a spring festival. This is what everyone thinks of life, reflecting Lao Tzu's loneliness.

The hustle and bustle of people has nothing to do with him.

Far from his "Tao".

He is still old and wandering, with an uncertain future, as lost as a newborn baby.

This is his mood on the way west out of Hangu Pass. From the text of Chapter 20, it can be seen that Lao Tzu was also forced to leave.

……

Lin Feng's words.

Well-founded and full of affection, every sound is from Lao Tzu's point of view to dissect the old man's state of mind at that time.

Is he right?
Standing there, Lao Tzu's heart was already moved, and there were some tears twinkling in his deep eyes.

His heartstrings seemed to be touched by Lin Feng.

Looking at the old man's back.

Everyone only felt all kinds of complicated emotions, including sadness, helplessness, sentimentality, and unwillingness...

Who would have thought.

A generation of sages through the ages had such an unsatisfactory life course.

Countless viewers feel the same way.

In modern times, whose life is sometimes perfect?

Behind the seemingly glamorous appearance, which one is not moving forward with a heavy load?Which one has not tasted all kinds of bitterness and bitterness?

a time.

This originally extremely mysterious millennium sage suddenly drew closer to everyone and shone into reality.

The picture is silent.

Amid the deeper music, Lao Tzu turned around. The wind blew by, and the robe on Lao Tzu's body fluttered. He smiled and said:

"Okay, well said, this trip of the old man is to go to the Kunlun sacred mountain far away. After a hundred years of sleep, he will also be on that sacred mountain."

Lin Feng said, "After the juniors go back, they must go to Shenshan for a walk, bring some sacrifices, and pay homage to my great sage of China through the ages."

Lao Tzu shook his head, and said in a vicissitudes of life, "No need, sleeping with the holy mountain, this life is enough."

In the webcast.

Countless barrages flew out.

They all sent off Lao Tzu with a tone of sincere admiration...
