Chapter 305: The Fourth Question of the Dao

Below the altar was a relatively soothing circular stone staircase, and when Lu Xiao silently counted the nine hundred and ninety-nine steps in his heart, he finally came to the flat ground.

It is a passage about 500 meters long that can see the end, and it is also a relatively regular rectangle that has been carved into it.

However, to Lu Xiao's surprise, the entire passage, whether it was the ceiling, the ground, or the walls on both sides, was all paved with gold.

There are ever-bright lamps hanging every five meters on both sides of the wall, and the enchanting flames are jumping off the golden wall next to it, which looks so dazzling!

Splendor!

This was the first word that came to Lu Xiao's mind when he saw such a luxurious passage for the first time.

As Lu Xiao cautiously advanced, no mechanism was found in the entire passage, and the same Lu Xiao also found the footprints of two people on the way forward.

Walking to the end of the passage, there were four gates four meters high, each with four large characters carved with small seals.

"What is the royal road?"

"What is the Emperor's Road?"

"What is the royal road?"

"What is domineering?"

When Lu Xiao saw these four questions, the whole person seemed to feel a majestic aura rushing to his face, and he couldn't breathe.

The imperial road, the imperial road, the royal road and the hegemony, these four ways are the ruling ideas that run through most of the history of the entire Chinese country, and can be said to cover a history of more than 4,000 years from the slave society to the feudal society.

Even in the present world, no one has been able to thoroughly study and understand these kinds of governing thoughts, and various theories and writings in history have different opinions and interpretations of these four ruling ideas.

But Lu Xiao now had to face these four problems head-on, because after careful observation, Lu Xiao found that these four golden gates did not have the slightest mechanism, only the middle two gates had a fist-sized hole, but at this time, they had been filled with a special style of gold.

Obviously, the two of Xuanyuan were able to enter it using the mechanism tokens that had been prepared a long time ago, and all Lu Xiao could do if he wanted to enter it was to answer the questions seriously.

What is amazing is that there is a rectangular groove under each question, and there is actually some gold liquid in it, the melting point of gold is generally about 1,000 degrees Celsius, but the temperature of these gold liquids in front of Lu Xiao is maintained at room temperature, and it is not hot at all.

This made Lu Xiao once again express his admiration for the wisdom of the ancients of China.

Looking at the golden liquid that had been flowing in the grooves of the four gates, Lu Xiao's mind fell into a lot of thoughts.

Regarding the four questions on the gate, from a macro perspective, there are four different ideas of governing the world.

Some are fraternal, some are harsh, and some are selfish.

But Lu Xiao didn't think that the problem in front of him was so simple, and according to the number of words in the grid given by the other party, it was by no means clear that could be explained in a long speech.

Lu Xiao lightly dipped his fingers in some gold liquid, and kept thinking.

But the explanations about the imperial road and the imperial road that he has seen in books over the years give people the feeling that they all make sense, but they were rejected by Lu Xiao one by one, and suddenly, Lu Xiao had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and thought of a sentence that he had seen on the Internet in the form of a joke but was very reasonable.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiao did not hesitate to start writing under the four questions.

"What is the royal road: the opponent is not well-behaved, run over him!"

After writing the question under the imperial road, the golden liquid actually protruded into the writing groove of the golden gate as if it had been inlaid.

But none of the four gates moved, did not open or touch any mechanism.

Seeing the scene at this time, Lu Xiao thought for a moment and continued to answer the questions later.

"What is the emperor: the opponent is good, and he will also be crushed from his body!"

"What is the king: Tell him before you run it over!"

"What is a ......?"

Writing this, Lu Xiao suddenly stopped, and when Lu Xiao finished writing the first three questions, there was still no movement in the four gates.

But at this time, Lu Xiao remembered that the joke was only three sentences, and there was no answer to the fourth sentence at all, that is, there was no answer to match the domineering.

For a while, Lu Xiao fell into a short period of thought.

"Wow?"

Xiao Bai, who was sleeping in Lu Xiao's arms, happened to wake up.

The little nose wrinkled, as if he smelled something he liked very much, crawled out of Lu Xiao's arms and followed the smell to the fourth gate, and slapped it directly with one paw.

"Boom!"

The claws collided with the gate and made a loud noise, but the whole passage did not shake in the slightest, which shows how strong and stable it is.

Seeing Xiaobai's movements, Lu Xiao's eyes lit up, and he immediately wrote in the groove of the fourth door, "What is domineering: no matter who directly crushes it!" ”

These four sentences written by Lu Xiao seem a little naΓ―ve and funny at first glance, but when you think about it, there is indeed a truth in them.

The emperor, conform to the will of the people, but will never wait to be beaten, he has his own tolerance, but he also has his majesty.

The emperor manages the subjects of the world with his own will, practices benevolent government, collects the hearts of the people, and observes the will of the people.

The king, the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.

Domineering, I am the world.

Lu Xiao didn't know who raised these four questions at the end of the golden passage and what he wanted to do, but Lu Xiao could feel a kind of ambition to rule the world, and the benevolence of hoping that the people could live and work in peace and contentment.

"Kerala!"

Just four minutes after Lu Xiao finished answering the four questions, the sound of gears turning sounded from behind the gate, and all four gates were opened.

This was an affirmation of Lu Xiao's answer to the question, but it also caused a little trouble to Lu Xiao, because Lu Xiao could only choose one of the gates.

What made Lu Xiao wonder was that in the swarthy passages of the four gates, Lu Xiao didn't find the footprints of Xuanyuan and his son.

After thinking about it slightly, combined with the mentality of the person who asked the four questions that he had just felt, Lu Xiao slowly walked into the second door, that is, the one that asked the emperor.

Inside was a narrow passage, extremely dark, Lu Xiao could only use his hands and feet to explore and move forward little by little, but fortunately, Lu Xiao did not encounter any traps along the way.

When Lu Xiao silently walked to the fiftieth meter in his heart, suddenly the dark passage disappeared, but what appeared in front of Lu Xiao was a place similar to a private school.

"Phantom Array!"

This was the first word that came to Lu Xiao's mind, but what happened next made Lu Xiao reject this idea.

Because he found that in addition to himself, there were two children in the entire private school, two children that Lu Xiao and Zhang Tingting had seen in the mural.

The general feng shui metaphysical illusion array stimulates the nerves of the person who enters the array through some means of light and shadow, so that an illusion appears in his mind, and this illusion is generally something that the person has experienced or has thought about in his mind.

But the vivid scene in front of him and the conversation between the two children made Lu Xiao's heart feel a boundless shock.

Although Lu Xiao has seen the content on the mural, he only knows that the two children learned things from an old man here when they were young, but Lu Xiao didn't know what they were learning.

Moreover, Lu Xiao's current thinking is very clear, and it is impossible for him to be stimulated by the phantom array and make illusions appear in front of him.

Then there is only one explanation for the situation that appeared in front of Lu Xiao's eyes, just like someone using a recorder to record his bits and pieces, the person who created this illusion actually used a formation to record the memories in his mind without any mobile phone or video recorder.

Logically, it is the same as those short documentaries that have been made, but in terms of actual operation, who in this world can read a person's memory with a formation.

Lu Xiao can't, his teacher Mo Wentian can't, almost no one in the world can do this.

But the person who built this formation did it, and Lu Xiao had only seen this method in the records of the Heavenly Machine Book, and he didn't expect that this kind of formation really existed at all.

Who was that person, whether it was the black-robed man who was far away from home or the emperor who was waiting here.

He has such a superb feng shui formation attainment, why was he killed by that general, and whether that general was away or not?

Lu Xiao suddenly felt that his IQ was a little insufficient.

"South Arbor! Your idea is wrong! It is absolutely impossible to achieve the ideal state of everyone in this world, and they must be restrained by the law and those who enforce the law. ”

"Hello! Why is it impossible, didn't Emperor Fuxi and Emperor Shennong rule with the imperial road in ancient times? ”

"The so-called imperial road is just a kind of thought handed down from ancient times, which is used for foolish people, so I don't believe that there is really any imperial thought in this world."

The boy called Jun Haoyu pursed his lips and said disdainfully.

"You are talking nonsense, the idea of the imperial road must exist, but after the Yellow Emperor, it became the imperial road and was submerged in the long river of history."

Nan Qiaomu retorted hard.

Looking at the argument between the two children in front of him, and then looking at their appearances, Lu Xiao could already tell that the child named Nan Qiaomu was the emperor on the second layer of the Hidden Treasure Land in the future.

And the boy named Jun Haoqi is the mysterious black-robed man who left his hometown when he grew up, manipulated many armies behind the scenes, and set off a bloody storm in the world.

And the two of them can debate the way to govern the world at such a young age, think about the time when they were five or six years old without their grandfather watching, they were all eating barbecue with Wang Shuo, Zhao Feilan, and Li Muwan.

"Look! The imperial road has been replaced by the imperial road, which proves from the side that the ideal society you said does not exist! ”

Jun Hao said proudly.

After listening to Jun Hao's words, Nan Qiaomu couldn't refute it, and asked directly: "But according to what you said, since you are the will of the world and can bring a peaceful life to the whole world, there is no such thing?" ”

"Who says my word doesn't exist?"

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, Jun Hao's eyes flashed with hope, he looked up at the sky, and said something that made Lu Xiao shudder......
