Chapter Seventy-Four: Doctrine
Although Ma Wu spoke humbly, there was still some resentment between these words, and if he was really respectful, he didn't need to say anything that he didn't dare to disobey. The 'mother-in-law' obviously heard it, was silent for a moment, and sighed: "At the beginning, I was bent on going my own way, but now it seems that I was wrong." Ma Wu still kowtowed and said: "Ma Wu doesn't dare to say right or wrong, I just want to say that although the Heavenly Master Dao of Rì is not as prosperous and huge as the Witch and Ghost Dao at the beginning, it is better for the disciples to be the Heavenly Master Dao, if Ma Wu is allowed to choose, he would rather be a Heavenly Master Dao sacrificial wine than a Witch Ghost Dao ghost." The 'mother-in-law' was stunned, somewhat unexpected by what Ma Wu said, and said, "Really? Then what are you still going to do, don't you go back and continue to make your Heavenly Master Dao Sacrificial Wine. Whether I am dead or alive is not much of a concern, and it is not uncommon for people to come to visit. ”
Ma Wu said: "Heavenly Master Dao can be without the big sacrificial wine, but not without Zhang Tianshi, Ma Wu is here, I specially invite Niangniang to open the net and let Zhang Tianshi go." The 'mother-in-law' sneered: "No wonder you came here, it wasn't for me." Who is this Heavenly Master, you begged me to let him go, you really asked Yu Blind, didn't you ask the wrong person? Ma Wudao: "Zhang Tianshi is Zhang Daoling, why should Niangniang pretend not to know." I know that Zhang Tianshi is here, so I ask Niangniang to let him out and meet me. The 'mother-in-law' said: "I don't know any Zhang Tianshi, there is a walking corpse here, but it was left by an ungrateful and ungrateful person, could it be that you just want to see him?" Ma Wu said: "Ma Wu doesn't know who Niangniang is talking about. Zhang Tianshi treats people generously, Corporal Lixian, neither a walking corpse, nor can he be ungrateful, please Niang Niang Mingjian. The 'mother-in-law' said angrily: "Ma Wu, you refute my words, are you talking about mine, aren't you?" Ma Wu hurriedly said: "Don't dare, when Ma Wu was a ghost official, he obeyed the decree of Niangniang, and now as a great sacrificial wine of the Heavenly Master, he only spoke up for the justice of the Heavenly Master." The 'mother-in-law' sneered: "What a righteous man, I don't know what benefits this Heavenly Master has given you, let you speak for him like this." Ma Wu, since you are no longer a person of the Witch and Ghost Dao, you don't need to be polite to me, you don't need to kneel, you get up. Ma Wudao: "Yes." Then he bowed his head and stood up, and lifted up his head.
The 'mother-in-law' didn't see Ma Wu's face clearly until this time, and sighed: "You are so old. At this time, although Ma Wu was old and strong, his white hair could not cover up the vicissitudes of time, and the feeling of time flies is undoubtedly revealed in a person's body. Ma Wu also saw her, and was stunned for a long time and said: "Although Ma Wu is old, Niangniang has not changed much, and she is still the same as in the past." The 'mother-in-law' tone turned soft: "I am a dead person, what I was at the beginning, and what I am now, although I am not old or dead, I don't feel as good as you live." From birth to death, from youth to old age, life should change and flow in it until it is extinguished. I wanted to pursue immortality, but now I want to be like you, to be able to experience the flow of life for myself, but unfortunately I can't. Ma Wudao: "Niangniang can think like this, which shows that she has a lot of insights, in this case, why should she be nostalgic for the previous years and indulge in it, and can't extricate herself." Why don't you like these thousands of lives, from birth to destruction, from extinction to birth, the past and present lives are all thrown into this reincarnation, and this qiē is broken. The 'mother-in-law' said, "What do you mean by this?" Ma Wu said: "Ma Wu is persuading Niangniang to let go, and there is no need to indulge in the past." The 'mother-in-law' said, "What did you say? Who am I doing this for, have you forgotten, but now you told me that you don't have to indulge in the past, it's not that the past is an empty dream, so let's stop it. Ma Wudao: "Niangniang for hundreds of years is like a rì, its feelings remain the same, although it is worthy of praise, but I still have to say a disrespectful word, at this time, the transit of the country, things are not people, but you are nostalgic to rì, unwilling to face the reality, and how can it be done by Homo sapiens, you must know that the past and the future, the world is all the feast, but the mother is obsessed, is not a mediocre self-disturbance." The 'mother-in-law' said angrily: "You dare to say that I am a philistine!? "Angry, already very angry, Ma Wu was just her subordinate back then, cautious in words and deeds, and now she dares to speak out about herself, which is undoubtedly unacceptable.
Ma Wu said loudly: "Niangniang is naturally not a mediocre person, but in the word love, being trapped by love is not done by Homo sapiens." In fact, why should Niangniang build such a mausoleum to trap herself, as long as the heart knot is incomprehensible, it is simply a painting of the ground as a prison, and Niangniang can't get out, just because you have already been blinded by this past, but now you refuse to know, although so many years have passed, but Niangniang still lives in the past, and I Ma Wu has lived like a rì to the present, from this point of view, I am not ashamed to live so many years longer than Niangniang. With what I have heard and seen over the years, I will naturally understand that Ma Wu is old, and Niangniang is still young, so he will boldly make suggestions to Niangniang and persuade her. ”
The 'mother-in-law' sneered, "Am I younger than you......?" "But after a few more glances at Ma Wu's appearance, thinking back to his appearance for thousands of years, it is indeed Ma Wu more like an old and virtuous person." You just look old, so you dare to rely on the old and sell the old to teach me a lesson. ”
Ma Wudao: "Niangniang stays here, isn't what she is waiting for is Zhang Tianshi?" But I have to say a direct word of advice, let it go. Today's Zhang Daoling and Zhang Shun back then are not the same person at all, and if you force the result, you can only hurt others and yourself, and the gains outweigh the losses. The 'mother-in-law' said sharply: "Why isn't it the same person?" I personally entrusted people to be reborn with blood, and the soul and bloodline are all passed down by one person, and it will be bad. Ma Wu said: "The breath of mortal sons is also passed down by blood, but it is not to compare father to son and treat it as the same person." And the soul thing, I remember that Niangniang once said that the master of Cihang Jingzhai had already spoken first, and this soul was like a new life after purification, and he didn't remember the previous things at all, in this case, the person who was reincarnated with Zhang Shun's soul blood has nothing to do with Zhang Shun, the son inherits the father's lineage, and Zhang Daoling has always taken Zhang Shun as his father, which is not the same person. Niangniang, this Zhang Shun is dead. ”
The 'mother-in-law' said in a trembling voice: "Nonsense, he is not dead, and he is not living in the world in a good manner." Zhang Daoling is Zhang Shun, Zhang Shun is Zhang Daoling, it's just that he doesn't remember me, if the time comes, I can't think of this way to recall the past in my previous life, and at that time, ......" Ma Wu interjected: "At that time, I'm afraid that Niangniang will be even more disappointed." The 'mother-in-law' was stunned and said, "Why? Ma Wudao: "Over the years, I have learned one more truth than Niangniang, that is, pay is not necessarily rewarded." Niangniang blindly sacrificed herself, but didn't ask the other party how it was, she just thought that she would give it a peach and repay it, and the two would be happy with each other, but what if not? What the lady did would only make people feel a lot of burden, and there was no way to reciprocate, and it was not, and it was not, how could it be a sense of harmony and harmony. ”
This could not be clearer, that is, Zhang Shun doesn't like her, but it's hard to refuse, and she is just wishful thinking. The 'mother-in-law' looked at Ma Wu in a daze, unable to say a word.
