Chapter 30: The Old-Fashioned Admonition

"Uncle Shi, there is a disaster ahead!"

It's still on Poyang Lake, it's still the same words, but the middle-aged man surnamed Yun last time is standing respectfully in the back row at the moment.

There were two men in front of him, the first one was a white-haired boy, eight feet tall, with a navy blue robe stretched open by iron-like muscles on his chest, and his hands crossed in front of his chest, intently surveying the ground in front of him.

After opening and speaking, it was a middle-aged man half a step behind him, who looked no more than forty years away, and there were not many wrinkles between the corners of his eyes, as if the years had just begun to leave traces on him, and with a handsome face, it could show the mature charm of a man.

Although standing behind the predecessors, there is no flattery.

"Uncle Shi, this is the original ...... of the disaster," the middle-aged man stopped talking.

The white-haired and child-faced man turned his head: "What is the mystery of this disaster if you want to ask?"

The middle-aged man nodded: "Why did the master and you tell us to stay away from here as much as possible?"

The man shook his head slightly: "I don't know!"

"Huh?" the middle-aged man was visibly stunned.

"Although I have lived for so many years, I don't have much interest in those old books with insects in the corner of the library pavilion!" the white-haired man smiled: "If you are really interested, you can ask your junior brother, he spends a lot of time on this!"

When the middle-aged man heard this, his expression darkened, and he sighed: "I should have persuaded my junior brother more at the beginning, otherwise he would not have spent all his time on these useless things, so that he was stuck in the late stage of breaking through the foundation for many years, and in the end, the master spent a lot of effort to forcibly promote it to the early stage of Jindan, which hurt the foundation, and there was no possibility of improvement." ”

The white-haired man looked at the middle-aged man with a heavy face, smiled playfully, and said meaningfully: "Let him pass the past! Now, since you are the head of the house, you should know some things!"

"Uncle Shi, please advise!" the middle-aged man saluted respectfully.

"Do you know why your master wants to raise your junior brother to the Jindan stage at the expense of his strength?"

The middle-aged man shook his head.

"Then do you know why once the Shou Yuan Dan is practiced in the door, let your junior brother use it first?"

The middle-aged man still shook his head.

For these, the previous middle-aged people have always attributed it to the master's preference for the younger brother.

"Your junior brother is not your master's illegitimate son, and even if it is, your master is not the only one in the door who has the final say. The white-haired and child-faced man seemed to see through the thoughts of the middle-aged man, as if enlightened.

"Then why?" the middle-aged man also wanted an answer.

The white-haired man smiled: "Because of the inheritance!"

The middle-aged man's brows furrowed, and his face was full of doubts: "Inheritance?"

"That's right! Only the nouveau riche don't need to pass it on, because they have nothing to pass on! In the eyes of those nouveau riche, power is a qiē!"

"Isn't that exactly what we cultivators do?" the middle-aged man obviously thought so in his heart.

"Of course not!" said the white-haired man flatly, "What is the purpose of cultivation?"

Without waiting for the middle-aged man to answer, he continued: "For the power! But where does the power come from?"

Seeing that the middle-aged man was deep in thought, the white-haired man nodded with satisfaction: "Who are we? We are some abandoned people left over from 10,000 years ago! The so-called cultivation today is just a method of understanding the world that we have handed down from our predecessors!"

"But now the world has changed greatly! The spiritual energy has dried up, and the path of cultivation is no longer working! So what should we do? Either sit and wait for death, or we can only find another way! Therefore, among us, the remnants, some domains with more knowledge inherited during the upheaval 10,000 years ago, have already begun to look for other paths. They also organized special manpower to try to find some techniques that can be used today from the classics that have been handed down, and some have been found more or less, but limited to cognition, they have all transformed this knowledge into things that are helpful for cultivation, such as formations, alchemy, refining tools, and the like. ”

"Although it is not necessarily wrong, it is absolutely one-sided! And we are not receiving it in a comprehensive system, but only according to our own needs, one-sided understanding and transformation, and some of the essence is afraid that it has already been lost!"

"I'm telling you this because you're already in charge! Since you're in charge, you have to shoulder this burden and find a way for us to get out! Instead of learning from those nouveau riche all day long, shouting for power is a qiē. They don't even understand what strength is, they pretend to be masters of the world, and they worship not strength, but fists! Hands and feet! But not brains!"

"Think about it, when we were children, crawling on all fours, the first thing we used must be our hands and feet, but when we grew up, we learned to use our brains, but now we don't even want to use our brains, look back, superstitious fists and feet, what an idiot!"

"People don't use brains, so what's the difference between that and livestock!"

Looking at the sturdy uncle talking about "don't be superstitious about fists and feet", and then recalling the experience of the uncle fighting when he didn't agree with each other, the middle-aged man's expression was a little strange.

"What's the matter? I don't think it's coordinated?" The white-haired and child-faced uncle is still very observant!

The middle-aged man nodded honestly.

"Haha!" Uncle Shi laughed out loud, and then said: "That's because Uncle Shi has already seen through the essence of strength! Dealing with idiots, and idiots who are weaker than me, are still verbose! One punch will solve it! You know, time is very precious! And to deal with idiots who are stronger than me, you have to use some brains! As for those who are stronger than me and some smart, then use more brains!"

"What if you are stronger than Uncle Shi and smarter than Uncle Shi?" the middle-aged man asked.

"You pig brains! Why are such people still running against him? Are you looking for death? In the face of such people, not even the slightest malice can be revealed, otherwise do you think that they will send an enemy who can be defeated as long as you work hard every time to train you? They are not your father! Why are they so good to you?" Uncle Shi said this, a little excited.

"Then this is also ...... It's too wretched!" This time the middle-aged man didn't speak, but a young man behind him couldn't help but say.

"Nests?" Uncle Shi sneered: "Dead people don't need such feelings!"

The young man bowed his head, and some of the young people around him who had the same idea also bowed their heads.

"Alas!" Uncle Shi shook his head and sighed: "When I was as old as you, when the master told me this, I was also very disgusted, but when my most beloved person died in front of us, I realized the weight of these words......"

"That's because Uncle Shi wasn't strong enough back then! If Uncle Shi had the strength he has now, how could Uncle Shi's lover die?" a young man couldn't help but confide the words in his heart, causing several people around him to nod secretly.

But the white-haired man just smiled: "Yes! Now I am indeed very strong! Then you say that the murderer who killed my beloved back then will suddenly stop at the moment he swings the knife, and then take her back, and wait until today, hundreds of years later, to bring her back to me again, and kill him again with a knife, so that I can save him in time and kill him with one slap? And he must always pay attention to the growth of my skills, and ensure that his growth rate is slower than mine, so that I can kill him with certainty when the time comes?"

The white-haired uncle told a joke, but none of the young people could laugh.

"The strength of the power is not a matter of words, he needs time to accumulate, when your strength is weak, you have to learn to forbear, to ensure that you have the possibility of growth!"

The white-haired and child-looking uncle used this sentence to summarize his previous remarks.

"You must be curious, why am I saying this!" Uncle Shi continued: "Because most of you have never come out! You must have thought that this mission is very simple, and there are only some wild people in this deserted land outside, you are just out for a trip to breathe!"

When the white-haired and childish uncle said this, a pair of sharp eyes stared closely at a smart girl in the back row of the line, until the girl moved her eyes back and forth.

"What I want to tell you is that the outside world is not as simple as you think! It can even be said that it is full of dangers! In addition to the ubiquitous toxins, those savages who are like ants in your eyes may also kill you! Every time the people who go out to practice in various domains, there will be a large number of people who will never come back! Otherwise, how could there be so many so-called martial arts masters among these savages!" Shi Shuzu was still admonishing.

"Uncle Shi, how is it possible? Could it be that these savages can still kill us? If we pass through a spell, these savages will be able to die in a large area!" the nimble girl was a little irritated by the chatter of the old-timers.

"Because they use their brains, and you don't use them if you have brains!" said Uncle Shi solemnly.

"Strength is a qiē, and the idea of those nouveau riche is not wrong! It's a pity that it's outdated! 10,000 years ago, the heavens and the earth never changed drastically, and the aura was sufficient, enough for us to cultivate, and those weapons and foreign objects, those who focused on cultivation could naturally go far. But now, the path of cultivation has long been proven impassable by that man!"

"Oh, by the way, Tianhe, that person is a monk now, what's the name of the law?" Shi Shuzu suddenly stopped and asked the middle-aged man surnamed Yun.

Yun Tianhe got the old ancestor to inquire, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Back to the ancestor of the master, the senior's law name is 'Huineng'." ”

Shi Shuzu nodded and said, "Since he is a monk, let's call him the Dharma name!"

"Uncle Shi, why are you so polite to this guy?" asked the agile girl from before.

"Because he's a hero!" said Uncle Shi solemnly.

"Hero, because of his willfulness, killing an entire domain of people, this is also called a hero?" the girl mocked.

"That's right!" Uncle Shi was still solemn: "No matter what you think, in the eyes of our old guys, he is a hero! He took the step we didn't dare to take! He eliminated a wrong path for us, and that's enough!"

"Okay, let's go!" Speaking of this, Shi Shuzu seemed to be reluctant to continue, waved his hand, and took the lead in stepping on the land of Yuzhang County......
