Chapter 136 The door of the academy has not yet been opened
Teachers generally do not have classes in the afternoon. Instead, students spend most of their time debating with each other, a bit like a college debate competition. The topics of the debate are all controversial, which can also stimulate students' thinking and enthusiasm for debate.
Yang Biao visited three classrooms where debates were taking place and listened to their heated debates. Most of the debates were about some important controversies in current society and culture. Tianshi Academy allowed everyone to form teams freely to choose the topic of the debate, aiming to cultivate students' critical thinking and communication skills through debates.
“Knowledge and action are one. Knowledge comes first, so knowing the truth of things is more important than actual action.”
"If you only know it in your heart but don't put it into action, the unity of knowledge and action will become empty talk." The man pointed at the other person and said.
Students, "Are these two going to fight?"
"Have a civilized debate and don't use violence!" Several people stepped forward and suppressed the two more impulsive debaters. This debate could easily lead to fighting among students, so someone needed to stop it in time.
"Yang Biao, tell me your opinion." Just as Yang Biao stood up and was about to go to the next teaching building, Huo Yijing stopped him, wanting to know what he thought about the unity of knowledge and action.
Yang Biao was a little confused. He just came here to join in the fun and see how young people in ancient times held debate competitions.
He believes that the unity of knowledge and action is a rule and a skill. Only when one has mastered the unity of knowledge and action can one sort out the troubles of the gap between the spiritual and the material.
The heart is reason, which means people need to find a spiritual reference; the conscience is which means people need to find a reference in the real world.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yang Biao had to smooth things over, "Everyone has achieved unity of knowledge and action, but the depth of their efforts is different."
"Are you trying not to offend anyone?" Huo Yijing was not satisfied with his answer and had to make him express his opinion today.
“The unity of knowledge and action is easy to say but difficult to achieve. When thinking about a problem, focus on opinions. When dealing with people, focus on feelings.” Yang Biao could only elaborate: knowledge is the beginning of action, and action is the completion of knowledge.
Looking at the young faces in front of him, Yang Biao couldn't help but think of a poem by Huang Tingjian:
The spring breeze of willow trees is leisurely tonight,
A pot of wine and ask the blue sky.
Why do flowers have a day to bloom again?
But one is never young again.
"Yang Biao, we still have self-study tonight, why are you packing your luggage?" You are anxious to go home and finish your classes. Wei Liangjing walked up to him and put his packed luggage back one by one.
"What does the teacher usually teach during the evening study time?" When Yang Biao was studying at the county school, he didn't have to study at night, so he packed his luggage and wanted to go home tonight.
"The teacher taught us how to write essays and marked them in class." Ye Jihan looked at him strangely. He didn't even know this.
"When I was in the county school, I didn't go to self-study at night." Yang Biao didn't feel embarrassed to see their confusing behavior. Confucius said, "To know what you know and to know what you don't know is true knowledge."
"Go to bed early. I'll take you to my house to play tomorrow." Yang Biao saw that Ye Jihan was still reading. Were all the teenagers in ancient times so engrossed in their studies?
"Okay," Wei Liangjing blew out all the lights in the dormitory despite Ye Jihan's objection, and everyone was forced to go on a date with Zhou Gong.
"Yang Biao, it's daybreak, get up quickly." Wei Liangjing, who woke up first, went to shake Yang Biao, saying that this fellow traveler must have a lot of delicious food at home.
"Oh, I'm really convinced!" Seeing that he was woken up before dawn, Yang Biao couldn't help but secretly curse Wei Liangjing, the fool. It was too early.
"If you get up early, you can eat more delicious food." It must be said that Wei Liangjing's muscular body is truly earned through his own strength.
"Wei Liangjing, if you wake me up so early next time, I will cut off your little brother." Huo Yijing was also woken up by him and threatened angrily. I can understand that you are greedy, but don't drag me in so early.
"Brother Liang Jing, you get up so early that the door of the academy hasn't even opened yet." Ye Jihan really wanted to cry but had no tears. He had originally thought that he could have a rare day off and sleep until he woke up naturally.
What sin had I committed to have to go through this so early in the morning? Was Wei Liangjing trying to tell me that the early bird catches the worm?
"My dear roommates, my mother always tells me that you should never regret being nice to others! Even if I am let down or even if I hit a wall, the fact that I am nice to others doesn't mean that they are good, but because I am really good!" You are lucky to have me, and even though he showed an expression of disgust towards himself, Wei Liangjing magnanimously said that he didn't care about these things.
"Oh, you woke us up so early. Do we still have to go buy some fireworks to set them off? Thank you, okay?" Huo Yijing was so angry that he was about to strangle him.
"Love is voluntary, there is no regret after it's over." The fearless Wei Liangjing didn't feel Huo Yijing's anger at all, and was still jumping madly on the road to death, speaking righteous words.
"What a great thing to do!" Huo Yijing couldn't bear it any longer, so he stretched out his hand and strangled him directly by the neck. He would not be able to calm down until he strangled him half to death.
"I want to sleep a little longer. I don't have the energy to get up too early..." Yang Biao fell directly on the bed and couldn't get up. "Wei Liangjing, you woke everyone up, but the door of the academy will not open for a while."
I must quickly find out his weakness, otherwise he will always do whatever he wants in the future and our lives will be in chaos.
"I also want to continue sleeping for a while. Wei Liangjing, if you disturb our sleep again, we will..." Huo Yijing made a gesture of wiping his neck. As the saying goes, beating someone is not as good as scaring him. Just scaring him will be enough.
"I see all living things as grass and trees, but you are the green mountain." He slept until dawn. Yang Biao saw Wei Liangjing sitting beside his bed, staring at him without blinking.
But he was shocked. Wei Liangjing didn't continue sleeping, but kept his eyes open until dawn?
"Hey, little fatty, don't put your face so close next time. It's easy to scare people to death!" This foodie is really good. He will do anything for a bite of food.
"How are you going to get to my house?" Yang Biao thought that he would not be able to go home for ten days, so he did not plan to leave any means of transportation at the academy. But now he was worried about how to get everyone to his home together.
"Hey, Yang Biao, you don't know, during every holiday, the entrance of the academy will be full of horse-drawn carriages. Some are here to pick up students, and some are for rent to everyone." Huo Yijing told him that he didn't have to worry about not having a tool to travel, and he could rest assured.
"Oh, that's good!" Yang Biao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw there was a horse-drawn carriage for rent. This ancient horseman was just like some drivers, looking for places where there were many young people and waiting to pick up passengers.
