Chapter 976: Enlightenment (Ask for Subscription!) ）

Qingcheng back mountain. Shangqing Palace.

Different from the Shangqing Palace in the front mountain for visitors to watch, the Shangqing Palace in the back mountain is not very tall, but it is full of ancient charm. In comparison, the Shangqing Palace in Qianshan is a lofty style, but at a glance, you can know that it is a product of the modern industrial system, and it does not have the majesty and heritage of the immortal sect.

Deputy Director Huang and others did not arrive at the back mountain in the end, and they were exhausted and paralyzed halfway up the front mountain. Think about it, these people usually read documents and read newspapers in the office, and at most they will write a manuscript or report, and they may not be able to walk a few kilometers in a month, and let them walk from the front mountain to the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain at once, isn't this embarrassing for them?

Fortunately, Xu Yinglong is also more reasonable, and when he saw that everyone was out of breath, he simply let them tour the front mountain for a while, and then go down the mountain together when they come back from the back mountain.

Xu Yinglong's words can be regarded as solving a big problem for Deputy Director Huang and others, if they are really allowed to go up and turn it down, I am afraid that more than half of them will be abolished.

Drinking the unique camellia of Qingcheng Mountain, Xu Yinglong looked at the old road of Qingshan carefully, he hadn't seen this old way for a while, but he didn't expect that the cultivation of this old way had improved a lot, and he had reached the early stage of the infant realm.

"Congratulations to the Dao Chief, the merit of breaking the pill and transforming the baby is complete!" Xu Yinglong said with a smile.

"Hehe, this is still thanks to the blessing of the palace master Xu, otherwise, with the qualifications of the old way, I am afraid that I will not be able to reach the Yuanying realm in this life." Qingshan said with a smile.

"It's too humble to be here, too humble!" Xu Yinglong said.

"Lao Dao is also a person who is more than 100 years old, and although he has cultivated for so many years, he has not made any progress. But it's still clear how many pounds and taels I have. If it weren't for the fact that Palace Master Xu didn't care about his previous suspicions, Lao Dao would probably only be able to stop at the Jindan realm in this life. Qingshan Lao Dao shook his head and said.

Xu Yinglong smiled and did not continue to talk on this topic. Instead, he asked with a smile: "I haven't been to the alliance headquarters for a short time, how has the alliance developed during this time?" ”

Qingshan Lao Dao immediately replied: "What do you say?" Generally speaking, it is still very good, since the family led by the Qingtian Liu family has also joined the Righteous Path Alliance, now all the members of the alliance have reached more than 850, basically including all the cultivation sects and family families in Huaxia, including the evil way, the devil's way and the sect that is also good and evil. It can be said that the current Righteous Path Alliance is even stronger than the previous Huaxia Cultivator Alliance, and it can almost be said that it has unified the entire Huaxia cultivation world. ”

Xu Yinglong nodded and said: "It is really not easy to do this step in just over half a year, and I can see that you are also attentive!" ”

"This is what we should do, didn't Palace Master Xu say it before. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. I didn't understand this sentence very well before, but after this period of time in the alliance headquarters, I finally understood the true meaning of this sentence. It is precisely because I understand the inner meaning that not long ago I finally broke through my own shackles, broke the pill into a baby, and achieved the Yuan Infant Immortal Dao! "Qingshan old road.

"Oh, I said why did you break the pill so quickly, it turned out to be an epiphany!" Xu Yinglong said in surprise.

"Epiphany doesn't count, it's just that I've served as an inspector within the Alliance since the establishment of the Righteous Path Alliance. Responsible for leading the team to deal with the monks who rely on the power in their hands to do evil. The more you deal with it, the more tragic things you see, so the painting you say has a deep understanding. ”

Then Aoyama continued: "When a person has more and more power and ability, what does it mean to him and the world? I used to think I could be superior. Overlook the ups and downs of ordinary people, and even control their fate. But after seeing too many human tragedies, especially these tragedies, we monks are responsible. All of a sudden, my mood became heavy! ”

"After thinking about it for a while, my understanding of competence has changed dramatically. Greater power doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. On the contrary, your responsibilities will become greater. Because you have supernormal abilities, the greater the impact on the people around you and society. Every move we make has a direct impact on ordinary people. If you do something that is worth advocating, then many people will follow suit, and vice versa. ”

Xu Yinglong nodded and said, "That's right, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility." But unfortunately, many monks do not have such an awareness, and what they think of after mastering powerful cultivation is not these, but that they finally have the ability to challenge the rules and bottom lines of this society. Faced with flowers, smiling faces and spotlights on a high place, but forgetting their responsibilities, such a person will one day be knocked down from the altar. ”

Nangong Pengfei on the side suddenly interjected: "The conversation between you suddenly reminded me of a story, and I was deeply touched!" ”

"What a story, tell me about it!" Xu Yinglong asked with a smile.

"Ancient poetry is based on Greek mythology, and it is said that once upon a time there was a king named Dionysus I, who ruled over Syracuse, the richest city in Sicily. He lived in a beautiful palace with countless treasures of great beauty and price, and a large group of attendants waited on either side, ready for orders. The king had a friend named Damocles, and he used to say to the king, "How lucky you are, you have everything people want, you must be the happiest man in the world." ”

"One day, the king, tired of hearing such words, said to Damocles: Do you really think that I am happier than others? Then I'm willing to switch places with you. So Damocles put on his royal robes and put on a crown of gold, and sat down at the table in the banquet hall, which was filled with delicacies. Flowers, wine, rare perfumes, beautiful music, you name it, he feels like the happiest man in the world. When he raised his glass, he suddenly found a sharp sword hanging upside down from the ceiling with horsehair, the tip of which almost touched his head, Damocles's body froze, his smile disappeared, his face turned pale, his hands trembled, he didn't want to eat or drink, he just wanted to escape from the palace, the farther away the better. ”

"The king said, 'What is the matter, friend?' Are you afraid of the sword that could fall at any moment? I see it every day, and it hangs over my head all the time, and at some point someone or something will cut that thin thread. Perhaps some minister covets my power and wants to kill me; Perhaps some people spread rumors to turn the people against me; Perhaps the king of a neighboring country will send troops to take my throne; Maybe I had to step down because of a mistake in my decision-making. If you want to be a ruler, you have to take all kinds of risks, and the risks are always with the power. ”

After telling the story, Nangong Pengfei said in a deep voice: "How great a person's ability is, then how great his responsibility is. And the reality is cruel and fair, when those who are capable forget their responsibilities, the thin horsehair that hangs the sword of Damocles is broken, and it really becomes a sharp blade to kill and deprive them of power and ability, so that they can experience what it means to stand high and fall miserably. ”

Xu Yinglong nodded and said: "You can have such an awareness is indeed beyond my expectations, if people want to go further and stand higher, they must take a long-term view." The frog only has a palm-sized sky in its eyes, so it will always be a frog at the bottom of a well. The rat's eyes are only on its own burrow, so it is only a rat in the hole for the rest of its life. ”

"As a monk, if you only use your cultivation as a tool to gain power or profit, then not only will you be abolished, but even the sect you belong to will collapse because of this. Maybe the laws of reality can't control you, but the way of heaven will remember what you did. Once it's time to settle the ledger, it's too late to regret it. ”

"Yes, fortunately, Poor Dao woke up in time, otherwise this life may be over!" Qingshan Lao Dao said happily.

"It's good to wake up, to wake up is to be enlightened, and only when you are enlightened will you get rid of the shackles in your heart and break through!" Xu Yinglong said. (To be continued.) )
