Chapter 1324: 913 Q&A (Asking for monthly passes at the beginning of the month!)

Actually, Taoist Duanmu should be brought along.

When it comes to the Tao Te Ching, she definitely has absolute authority to speak on it.

Of course.

Jiang Chen dares to cite classics so freely in the classrooms of Kyoto University, in front of these gifted students, naturally influenced by Taoist Duanmu.

Ever since Lan Peizhi "entrusted" the person to him, in order to get along more smoothly, he has actually made many unknown efforts.

For example, in his spare time he would read relevant classics.

Jiang Chen, who studied economics, stood on the podium in the lecture hall and said calmly: "Here, I want to give an example. I don’t know if there are any medical students present, but clinically there is a rare disease called progeria. Its characteristic is that the growth and development of cells, tissues, and organs in the human body are excessively fast, with every cell like a hero, each having the urge to surge forward, each unwilling to be ordinary. The final result is that the patient looks old when he’s only ten, with organs failing, the whole person appearing senile, so much so that the child ends up passing away at a tender age."

"Tao Te Ching Chapter 23 says, ’Gale wind does not last all morning, a downpour does not last all day.’ It means that strong winds won’t blow all day, heavy rain won’t fall all day, what really lasts is the consistent drizzle during the rainy season. Chapter 30 says, ’Great strength decays’. It means when something expands to its maximum, it will move towards decay. Chapter 40 says, ’Reversal is the movement of the Dao’, meaning every event will cause an opposing force to counteract it. The more excessive your effort, the harder it will be to get up when you fall."

Even though she fully trusts him, when Cao Jinse looks at the young man who speaks eloquently on the three-foot podium like a steady rock, her eyes can’t help but sparkle with admiration.

"I believe everyone must have experienced a 100-meter sprint and a gentle walk. A sprint can only run 100 meters, while a walk can cover 10,000 steps in one go. Short and fast running will only quickly render you a reclined incapacitated person. However, those who walk leisurely may have already left you far behind while you rest. They didn’t even feel their efforts, but spent a period of beautiful growth in a very enjoyable process."

Having heard this, not only the students in the lecture hall but even Cao Xiugo became thoughtful.

"Tao Te Ching Chapter 41 also states, ’The greatest sound is hard to hear, the greatest image has no form.’ The better the music, the more distant and ethereal it is; the better the image, the more elusive and grand it is. When persistence is no longer intentional, but like the heartbeat, no longer needing constant reminding or repeated rehearsals, it silently becomes a part of our life, no longer a significant burden in life."

"In philosophy, everything exists in a state of duality simultaneously. When a person’s excess efforts bring them down, at that moment, it becomes excessive rest and relaxation. When someone desires excessive comfort, what follows is endless torment and suffering. Just like what Tao Te Ching advocates, everything should follow the natural order, work when the sun rises, rest when it sets, what we pursue should not be an instant of ecstasy, but the gradual flow of life’s river over time. Eventually, you may find: even though you never thought you worked hard, as long as you go far enough on this path, your life will become wider and easier."

When Jiang Chen paused, the lecture hall was silent, then after a moment, perhaps realizing it, the third wave of applause erupted.

Not to mention the depth and breadth of his thoughts, even his on-the-spot response ability and language organization skills command enough respect.

Moreover, the students of Kyoto University began to believe that Teacher Cao invited him to "substitute" not solely because of his business achievements.

But so young, how could he have such profound knowledge?

Even an obscure ancient book like the Tao Te Ching, he can recite with such familiarity.

As students of Kyoto University, at this age, and with this identity, they won’t envy how much money one has; they only admire broad and profound scholarship.

Of course.

As gifted students, they surely have pride.

Seeing Jiang Chen, who is of similar age, finally, a male student couldn’t help but pose a challenge.

"Teacher Jiang, I have a question."

Jiang Chen, who successfully earned respect from the outstanding students present, nodded with a smile, composed and unhurried: "Please ask."

The male student stood up with his head held high, his posture exuding a vibrant future energy.

"I very much agree with your explanation of effort, but one thing. Since effort is clearly not a virtue, why is it that from childhood to adulthood, the education we receive constantly advocates this notion repeatedly?"

Cao Jinse glanced at the boy who sat down immediately after asking his question, slightly furrowing her brow.

Compared to the previous question posed by the girl, this boy’s question, or the angle he asked from, was quite challenging.

Cao Xiugo sat composedly.

Being a teacher at Kyoto University isn’t an easy role to play.

"This male student’s question is very good. Like how the fabricated story of Kong Rong sharing pears is taught, but the real history of Cao Cao exterminating Kong Rong’s clan is never taught?"
