The private room of the teahouse was quiet, only the teapot placed on the alcohol lamp was singing a lonely song.

Time seemed to have completely stopped, and finally, Ji Binglan broke the peace of the private room.

"Door Master, do you really intend to put pressure on the ashlar?"

Ouyang Houtian sat in his seat, leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, squinted his eyes as if answering and said to himself, "Isn't it okay?" ”

Ji Binglan thought for a while, sighed and said: "Fang Shi's ability is really hard to estimate, I am worried that once we enter a high-intensity confrontation state, our losses will be great, before the chronic disease of the sworn heart spell is solved, our people are no different from ants in front of Fang Shi, although this is very discouraging, but unfortunately, this is a fact." ”

Ouyang Houtian's eyes suddenly opened, and a cold light shot towards Ji Binglan, but Ji Binglan looked back at Ouyang Houtian very calmly, Ouyang Houtian sighed: "Elder Ji is right, this is a headache fact, but Fang Shi is not alone, he can't protect all people with a pair of wings, not to mention, he has a lot of things to do now, and we have a lot of means to exert pressure. Let him clearly feel our ability and determination. ”

Ji Binglan nodded: "The door master is right, Fang Shi does have a lot of flaws around him, but these do not hurt the fundamentals, on the contrary, if we embark on the road of confrontation, maybe there is no way out, Fang Shi is not a politician, he is a warlock, the door master." ”

"He's still the future lord of Qingcheng! He had to think about the whole Qingcheng! ”

"Not necessarily. At least not yet. Then he could become the gravedigger of the Earth's Evil Gate. The master of the door. ”

Ouyang Houtian twitched the corners of his mouth, snorted softly and didn't make a sound, Ji Binglan pursed his rosy lips and continued:

"Fang Shi's character is very strong, especially when it comes to treating relatives and friends, this is almost his rebellion, he always uses a resolute attitude to deal with those who covet his relatives and friends, and this point cannot be ignored."

Ouyang Houtian was silent for a while, then sighed softly, "Elder Ji." Are you trying to destroy your own prestige? ”

"Door master, you asked me to evaluate Fang Shi, I am just stating my opinion very objectively, please don't look at my construction with colored glasses."

"Well, you're right, what do you think the elders would say about your assessment?"

Ji Binglan spread his hands lightly and smiled: "How do I know, but I believe that all the elders are rational people. ”

Ouyang Houtian shook his head with a smile: "That's it, I understand what you mean, it's just that this square stone is really a little infuriating." ”

"Hee-hee"

"What are you laughing at?"

"Now, Master. Can I think you're jealous? ”

Ouyang Houtian was stunned for a moment, and then laughed angrily: "For your father's sake." Otherwise, you must be punished for being disrespectful to the master. ”

Ji Binglan smiled gracefully, took a sip of tea and said, "Door master, you should accept the construction of Fangshi." ”

"You mean to make a deal with the Security Service? You don't know how big Director Yan's mouth is. ”

"Well, I've heard Elder Han say something, and besides, the information in the door is also very rich about Director Yan, Director Yan is an aspiring person, and the greed you mentioned is actually a direct expression of the maximization of interests, but as long as you are a politician, then there is the possibility of compromise. Compared with Fang Shi, Director Yan is much easier to deal with. ”

Ouyang Houtian waved his hand: "I know, your work is here, it's rare to come once, go to Xiangjiang for a walk, there are really all kinds of birds there." ”

"I will, don't you care about the affairs of the Li family?"

"The Li family? Are you talking about the Li family's purchase of information from Shi and the others from us? Everyone knows this, but we can't put it on the table, so you have to be careful, if you have the chance, Fang Shi will definitely arrest us and send us to the Security Bureau. ”

"Hehe, wasn't that a good opportunity just now?"

"So-and-so is talking about you."

Ji Binglan pursed his lips and smiled: "I know, I can't hide from him, but his eyes are really powerful." ”

Ouyang Houtian nodded meaninglessly, closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair without making a sound, Ji Binglan stood up and retreated quietly

Fang Shi sat in Xia Yuyao's car, Xia Yuyao drove the car very slowly today, as if she wanted to spend more time with Fang Shi.

There was a faint fragrance in the car, Fang Shi liked to smell it very much, Xia Yuyao obviously noticed this, and her cheeks were a little red.

"Uncle, aren't you worried at all?"

"Worried about what? Hellish Gate? ”

Xia Yuyao nodded, and continued to rub the car forward, and the intersection in front seemed to be blocked again.

"Just now, Ouyang Houtian was making a stern threat."

Fang Shi pursed his lips: "He's just playing tricks, does he really dare to choose to fight against us?" If the Hellish Gate had the guts, it wouldn't always be hiding in the shadows and engaging in conspiracy. ”

"This time it's different, the attraction of that sealing technique is just too great for them."

Fang Shi laughed: "By the way, call my mother first, she will be in a hurry." ”

"I just texted."

"When was it sent? How did I not know? ”

Xia Yuyao rolled her eyes: "You're so annoying, I use a common phrase, press it twice and send it, don't interrupt, what were you laughing at just now?" ”

Fang Shi smiled and put away his phone, and said very easily, "Do you know why the Earth Demon Gate is so eager to get this sealing technique? ”

"Because their vows and mantras have great limitations, and they will even become a noose around their necks, do you think they are not in a hurry? In case you leak out this spell against the Earthshatter Gate, the Earthshatter Gate will not be in serious trouble. ”

"yes, so, do you think they dare to play tricks on me?"

Xia Yuyao thought about it. I have to admit that the logic of Fangshi is correct. However, she soon realized that Fang Shi's answer was not the question she had just asked. couldn't help but glance at Fang Shi with disgust.

"You weren't laughing at that."

Fang Shi laughed: "You know me very well." ”

Xia Yuyao wrinkled her nose, a little proud and a little shy in her heart, she didn't dare to look at Fang Shi.

Fang Shi glanced at Xia Yuyao, and then said, "I really didn't laugh at this just now, but I was laughed at Ouyang Houtian's thoughts. ”

"Why? Isn't it funny that they're trying to get the seal? ”

"Yes, you think, swear that there is such a big problem as zài. Could it be that the problem of improving it with sealing techniques does not exist? As long as there is such a protective measure in their Yuan Shen, there will definitely be loopholes that will be exploited, otherwise how can they use the spell guò to punish their subordinates, and how can they ensure that their subordinates do not dare to betray the sect lightly? ”

"Uh" Xia Yuyao was stunned: "This, isn't this a paradox?" ”

"That's right, all the practice of trying to control the subordinates by forceful means will inevitably have the paradox of zài, once this method of control is known to others, the entire power system is in danger of collapsing, which is also the reason why it will decline rapidly after every evil way and trickery. Therefore, the right way is the right way to control the subordinates with morality and rules. It is also the fundamental reason why the righteous path has always steadily suppressed the evil path. ”

Xia Yuyao thought about it solemnly, and after a while, she said with some hesitation: "Why do I think this has something to do with human nature." Daozang said that human nature has both good and evil sides, and it is necessary to cut off evil and promote good, while the evil way preaches that profit is eliminated from trouble, freedom, and Taoism is long and demons are eliminated, is it true that goodness is the foundation of human nature? ”

Fang Shi shook his head: "What Daozang said is not all the truth, Daozang is from "Yi", I think it is better to trace back to the source." Yi itself actually has no position, otherwise Ji Tailai is the best proof. Good and evil are just different manifestations of human nature, there is no need to kill anyone, to be good because human beings need companions, to evil, because they want to protect themselves. Tai Chi is divided into two instruments, and people are also divided into good and evil, and good and evil do not exist alone. The foundation of the two rituals is Tai Chi, the foundation of good and evil is human nature, and the Tao is just a balance between good and evil. ”

Xia Yuyao realized: "That is to say, people must find a balance between self-interest and altruism. ”

"Yes, if the individual does not have this balance, the individual will collapse, and if the society does not have this balance, the society will also collapse."

"Isn't there all altruism?"

"Hehe, theoretically, there is no zài in the case of complete self-interest, which will inevitably lead to ruin, right?"

"Hmm."

"So theoretically complete altruism seems possible, right?"

"Yes!"

"But you are only ideal, I ask you, what if there is an egoist in such a completely altruistic society? How do you deal with it? ”

Xia Yuyao was stunned, if it is not dealt with, then the emergence of this egoist has violated the foundation of an altruistic society, if it is dealt with, then the starting point of this treatment is obviously self-interest!

Obviously, this is also a paradox, and sure enough, balance is king.

Fang Shi smiled and pointed ahead: "Forward." ”

"Ahh

"You don't need to think about these things so much now, just think about it slowly, the theory formed by people's thinking about the world should become the most core foundation of the Yuan Shen at the stage of refining the gods and returning to the void, at that time, the cultivation path and the effect will inevitably be different, I am also very curious, if you follow the Taoist concept of the evil path or the righteous path, can you cross the level of refining the gods and returning the void."

"That seems like a long time ago, right?"

"That's not easy to say, don't forget, Yu Xin is only twenty-six, and she has already reached the point of refining Qi to return to her spirits, and there will always be a day when the elixir of life will be applied, I believe we will definitely see this result, speaking of which, I am really looking forward to it."

Fang Shi laughed as he spoke, squinting his eyes out of the car with a somewhat divergent look, as if he was imagining the future.

Xia Yuyao glanced at Fang Shi, who was a little distracted, and smiled secretly with the corners of her mouth curled, her eyes were full of longing to look ahead, but there were all car butts with red lights in front of her. (To be continued......)
