Chapter 139: Gambling
Why do they believe in the Lotus Cult? This is a good question, and the biggest of them is ignorance, and if one of these individuals is a martial artist, then they will not think so.
When the horizon changes, the way that person sees the world will also change. Therefore, if you want to change their cognition, it would be nice to have another exception for a holy son or a holy woman.
Let them know that this kind of thing is just a common thing, and that there are many people in the world who can do it, then they will not go to blind worship anymore.
And this person, Hu Xiu turned his head mysteriously, Chen Yien, it's up to you to do the miscellaneous things behind this.
"What if you forcibly keep my members?"
Chen Dinglan asked.
"You don't have to worry about this, on the third day, I can guarantee that we will not send people to interfere with their actions."
"Your promise doesn't count." Obviously, she didn't believe Hu Xiu.
"Oh oh oh ~ Then I won't guarantee it, he promises, Chen Yien promises." However, Hu Xiu was not angry, and pushed Chen Yien, only looking at her and nodding her head a few times.
"Look, he's all nodding." In order for Chen Yien to have a wife, Hu Xiu is really well-intentioned.
"Well, I'll believe you." Chen Dinglan's letter, you naturally refer to Chen Yien's letter.
"However, since you have raised the loophole, I have to say it, and you must not keep your sect members in the Lotus Sect all the time."
"Naturally, you can." Chen Dinglan has spent more than half a year to bewitch these fools, and she is confident.
"And what's the bet?"
"If I win, you dissolve the Lotus Sect, and you can dispose of it with us. If I lose, you can live, as for whether the Lotus Sect is disbanded or not, it also depends on your mood, how about it? ”
Chen Dinglan only rolled her eyes when she heard this, this is a good thing to say, it depends on you whether it is dissolved or not. But he is not the fool of Chen Shangbo, he can't hear the meaning of the words, even if she wins, she won't dare to get this lotus sect anymore.
If Hu Xiu said that Hu Guo no longer cares about the Lotus Sect, it would be better, but he didn't say that Hu Guo may send an army to exterminate the Lotus Sect at any time.
She's not that stupid, it's not easy to survive, what else do you want. However, she frowned, if she won and disbanded the Lotus Sect, what would her Chen Yien do?
"I want to put some conditions on that."
"You say." Hu Xiu replied.
"If I win, you have to give him to me, and keep us both safe." She didn't forget that Chen Shangbo was dead, his death was to be buckled on her head, if there was no one to protect her, she might be killed as soon as she left Lotus County.
"Yes, of course." This woman is so active, it seems that she wants to take people away, of course Hu Xiu happily agreed.
As for the fear that Chen Dinglan will run away with Chen Yien, don't worry about this, there is nothing in the bet that you can't be imprisoned afterwards.
"Then it's decided!" Hu Xiu looked at his grandmother, she had said before that this matter was now in his hands.
However, at this time, Grandmother Gao looked suspicious, looked at Hu Xiu, and then stared at Chen Dinglan, looked at it, and nodded, the little girl is indeed quite good.
Big eyes, smart and smart, good figure, big buttocks, you can give birth at a glance. is worthy of my good great-great-grandson, he has a good eye, and he has taken a fancy to a girl, it seems that there is another grandson or granddaughter.
She has already thought about it, she has to protect this girl, and it doesn't matter if she claims to be a saint before, as for the law, I'm sorry, what the royal said, it's the law.
"Grandmother, we can go."
"Yes, my good great-great-grandson." Grandmother said with a smile.
The group, swaggering, walked outside, and then Hu Xiu suddenly remembered something, and the specific time was not said.
Today is the 17th, not counting today, and in three days, it will be the 21st.
"Chen Xiaomei, see you after the 21st. I'll count a little longer, not counting the morning, March 21st, before noon, as long as you have more than 1,000 members in the Lotus Sect, you will win. ”
Hu Xiu smiled confidently, he already had a method, a very simple and complicated method.
"Let's go."
No one stopped them, and no one stopped them, and the group went directly out of the Lotus Sect.
"Holy Maiden~" All the disciples looked at their Holy Maiden, waiting for the Holy Maiden to give the next order.
As for the death of the Holy Son, they didn't care too much about it, because because his Holy Son had only appeared for three days, and there were many people in the sect who were disobedient to him.
"Disciples, remember to repent when you return home, three hours later, on the twenty-first day, before noon, every believer needs to meet at the president of the Lotus Sect.
Listen to the teachings of the lotus goddess, this news should be communicated to every believer, do you understand? ”
Chen Dinglan is full of confidence in this group of stupid people who listen to her everything, and after three days, she must have won!
"Listen to the instructions of the lotus goddess." This group of disciples dispersed in twos and threes, and she was the only one left on the spacious Dharma field.
She looked at the huge white lotus on the Dharma field, stepped forward, and stroked its petals, as if it had feelings, the petals shook a few times, showing in response.
"I wronged you for three more days, and after that, you won't be visible again, and you will be seen casually, I know you don't like this feeling."
I don't know if she is talking to herself, or if she is really talking to this huge white lotus. I only saw a faint white light emanating from her body, and then her body was suspended, floating towards the center of the white lotus.
It's like a goddess.
~~~
On the exception, Hu Xiu and the others walked out of the gate of the Lotus Sect and looked towards the door. It's really majestic, and it covers such a large area.
I don't know what the officials in charge of this thought in the first place, so they really sold him? I didn't think it would make such a big fuss.
No, the officials of Lotus County have cleared up, you don't want any cats and dogs, you can enter, and the officialdom is really a flower and bird market.
"Xianggong, do you really have a way to win?" Shi Ling'er stepped forward and said, she just looked at the group of disciples, all like madmen.
How can this win, if she loses, but she has to export Chen Yien, although she doesn't like too many women around Hu Xiu, but she is not a jealous woman.
Between the face of the woman and the husband, between the two, she chooses the face of the father. If he loses the bet, it will be a shame and a big loss.
"This, you don't have to worry at all, I have a plan, I can't lose." Hu Xiu looked at Chen Yien, the center of the plan is her, then it will be stable.
She said that as long as she was a living thing, she would create it, and this huge white lotus flower in the Lotus Sect was not a living thing.
"And what's the plan?" Shi Ling'er continued to ask.
"The Tao is the way, the very way; The name is not a name, it is not a name. This matter must not be spoken, not spoken, not spoken. Hu Xiu said in a tricky way, and he still had the feeling of an old god.
"Dao Ke Dao?" Shi Ling'er didn't understand, but the great grandmother looked at Hu Xiu with a strange gaze, how could his great-grandson say such a thing, she had a mysterious feeling when she heard it.
"Great-grandson, what kind of allusion did you say?" Grandmother Gao is very old, although she has read a lot of books, but she can't say that she has read all the books, such as the sentence that Hu Xiu just said, she has never heard of it.
"Oh~ it's from Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching." Hu Xiu responded.
"Lao Tzu? Yours? ”
"No, it's Lao Tzu, it's not mine." Hu Xiu hurriedly explained.
"Isn't that you?" Grandmother was a little confused.
"Lao Tzu is a person's name, it was he who wrote the Tao Te Ching, I don't have the ability to write this kind of masterpiece that can leave a name in history."
Hu Xiu's explanation was sweaty, and he really wanted to make it clear that others crossed over, but they just stole poems, one or two poems, and they were not in the way, and when they went down to the underworld and met real people, they were scolded a few words at most.
But this "Tao Te Ching", he didn't dare to mark this signature indiscriminately, but he was going to be spurned by thousands of people, and he couldn't bear the load.
I know my own details, but I am just a lucky traverser. Others crossed over, had nothing, and began to make a fortune, but he was not.
The son of the prince who directly became a big country, he has endless glory and wealth, and now he has to travel around the world, and when he returns, he can inherit the throne and become the emperor admired by tens of thousands of people.
"Who is Lao Tzu, why has my grandmother never heard of it, but just listening to his words, I feel unfathomable."
It is not unfathomable, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, the academic community's interpretation of the "Tao Te Ching" has not stopped, and now the "Tao Te Ching" we read has been changed by Confucianism.
But it's still an excellent book, after all, it's been a thousand years of history, and people can still be attracted by the content in it, and after reading it, they can still understand the deep meaning and be impressed, isn't this the last miracle?
Every thing, whether it is a person or a book, even if it is a stone, its existence has a special meaning. Otherwise, why does it exist, existence and meaning.
At least that's what Hu Xiu thinks.
Hu Xiu's existence is meaningful, and the existence of the great grandmother is meaningful, so the existence of this exceptional world is also meaningful.
Some people have been saying that the beginning of Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" is very Taoist (; The name is not a name, and it is not a name
This sentence is a trick, it is estimated that Lao Tzu himself does not know what the word "Dao" he is talking about, but it is also very normal, after all, if you want to understand a word, you must define him.
But no one can understand the definition of the word "Dao", that is to say, it is a meaningless word, so some people say that Lao Tzu is making a fool of himself.
Everything probably has a corresponding side, such as life and death, such as watermelons and apples that people eat, they correspond to fruits.
And the "Tao" has no counterpart, no one speaks it, and no one says it, it represents this mystery and mystery, so it has no meaning?
I don't think so, he also understands it as the beginning of all things, the beginning of all unknowns, and for the time being, he defines it as "mother", which represents the source of everything.
As mentioned in the previous chapters, language has a ceiling, but it is not elaborated. Here's an example, let's say you're eating, and you feel that the dish is very fragrant and delicious.
If you were asked to put it into words, how would you be able to express it? This crayfish is fragrant and spicy, and it is so delicious. If you have a literary style, you can add a few more modifiers.
But can you really convey this incense word to others? Obviously~ No.
When you eat crayfish and think it's spicy, it's the same for others to eat, but everyone's feeling after eating it is different, and you have no way to tell others your true "feeling" clearly, which is simply impossible.
So you can't feel the real word "Dao", but it seems to exist in all aspects around you, but if you want you to tell what it is, you can't tell it.
You see, just this short word "Dao", it can lead to such Taoist meanings and feelings, how hung Lao Tzu who wrote this "Tao Te Ching" is 1.
……
ps: Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" is very recommended, when you are confused in life, take a look, it will help. Speaking of "Tao Te Ching", I recommend a handsome comparison, Zhong Ni of station B, strongly recommend, he is talking about "Tao Te Ching" now.
Regarding the Tao Te Ching, I am a beginner, and even watch videos to learn, but I like these things in the Tao Te Ching, which are connected to life, and it can bring different feelings to everyone.
If a thousand people read the Tao Te Ching, they can read a thousand copies of the Tao Te Ching. Everyone who reads it, and what they end up with, can read different meanings.
On February 15, 571 B.C., a great man Lao Tzu was born in Qurenli, Li Township, Ku County, Chu State, in the east of the world, which is now Taiqing Palace Town, Luyi, Henan Province. He is a great philosopher, thinker, and founder of the Taoist school in ancient China, and is regarded as one of the world's 100 celebrities by contemporary times.
