Chapter 4, The Great Secret (I)
sent away Qian Ergongzi, and Xuan Yi also had to think about his next actions. If today's machine is chaotic, it seems that all parties seem to have opportunities, but Xuan Yi knows that the will of heaven actually has a clear belonging, that is, Dajin outside Yuguan. Now that he has returned to before he went down the mountain, at this time, the luck of Xuan Yi and even the entire sect has not been connected with Huang Zide, which means that Taiqingguan can actually choose another object of support. Purely from the perspective of interests, Daikin outside the customs is actually the best choice. Now recalling all the things in the previous life, Xuan Yi has to admit that Hongtai Khan, who now rules Zejin, is indeed far superior to others in terms of ability. Whether it is Emperor Chongxiang of the current Zhao, or Huang Zide, who is still active in the Shaanxi area now, but should go into Shangluo Mountain to hide in the near future, or Zhang Huanghu, who has just surrendered to the Zhao, but is always ready to rebel, is far from him in wisdom and ability. Recalling the experience before his rebirth, Xuan Yi even felt that the struggles of himself and several other parties were almost just making wedding clothes for him. In terms of strength, Dajin also has the strongest fighting force in his hands, and for many years, this army has almost been synonymous with invincibility, and later the Great Jin Army and their battles are also difficult to win.
However, as far as Xuan Yi knew, there were already figures from a certain sect involved in them. If you go back now, you are already lagging behind, and what you can get in the future will naturally be limited. But even so, it's good to get a little bit of luck in the process. However, thinking about the experience before being reborn, and now standing on the opposite side of the comrades-in-arms who once shared life and death, it is really difficult to accept emotionally. Moreover, helping the Tartars occupy the Central Plains, is that becoming a traitor?
"Besides, I now know how many things will go in the future, and if I use them well, I may not be able to turn things around. It's just that...... It's just Heavenly Court...... It's hard to ...... If you want to stand on the opposite side of the heavenly court...... But once you fail......" Xuan Yi thought so, and his face became cloudy.
"No matter how you choose your side, you must stand on the opposite side of Heavenly Court!" A voice suddenly sounded in Xuan Yi's head.
"Who? Who is it? Xuan Yi was so frightened that he almost cried out.
At this time, his right hand suddenly raised uncontrollably, until it reached the same height as his face, and then the voice sounded again: "Human beings are such a strange thing, obviously they have just broken free from hell with my strength, and in the blink of an eye, they come to ask me who I am?" I am Chi You's head hidden in the East Pole, I am Xingtian's head buried in Changyang, I am the fox in the wild temple, I am the one-eyed stone man in the Yellow River, I am the spirit that has been deliberately forgotten; It is the enemy who keeps the night of the gods awake; It is the will of all rebellions throughout the ages, I will crown Zhang Jiao as the general of the sky, and promise to let Huang Chao be the Yellow Sky of the Green Emperor! ”
"You ......" Xuan Yi couldn't speak.
"You think I should have died a long time ago, I should have been imprisoned in the deepest part of hell, surrounded by nine-fold nets, nine-fold swords, and pressed by the thirty-six heavens and eighteen layers of hell of the endless world, I shouldn't have appeared here at all, I should have been pressed so that nothing could be exposed, right? Heavenly Court, Heavenly Emperor, they all hope like this, but yes, they really can't do it, Heavenly Court, Heavenly Emperor, they are not really Heaven. ”
"Heavenly Court, Heavenly Emperor, they are not really Heaven?" Xuan Yi was taken aback again.
"Of course, I ask you, what do you think the sky is?" The voice asked in Xuan Yi's head again.
"I ...... I don't know very well...... I ......" Xuan Yi didn't know how to answer.
"Stupid! What kind of path have you cultivated? I don't even want to understand this, what kind of Tao are you cultivating! Fix your pig's head three! The voice said angrily. Xuan Yi felt that if there was a ring ruler on his desk, he was afraid that he would immediately grab the ring ruler and beat it according to his head.
"Don't worry, I won't hit you on the head if you have a ruler." The voice suddenly added, "It's easy to beat people stupid by hitting the head, you are already stupid enough, and hitting your head again, you will be too sympathetic." Your Tao Te Ching says: 'Heaven is the way of the Tao, and the law of the Tao is natural.' 'What is the day?' Yes! It's nature! What is Nature? Wind is nature, water is nature, you are nature, and I am nature! But nature is not wind, nature is not water, nature is not you and me, and nature is not heaven. Everything is just a part of nature. The creation of the Heavenly Court is natural, and it is also natural that the Heavenly Court has its rebels. 'Lonely yin does not grow, only yang does not grow', 'yang comes from yin, yin roots in yang'. Therefore, Heavenly Court, so the Heavenly Emperor can't destroy me, and Heavenly Court can't suppress me forever. ”
"But, but according to this reason, you can't destroy the Heavenly Emperor and Heavenly Court?" Xuan Yi thought.
"Yes, it is. But I can also suppress him, crush him to hell, and make him mine. This is called 'heavy yin must be yang, heavy yang must be yin', this is called 'the emperor takes turns, tomorrow to my house'! What's more, the current Emperor of Heaven is perverse, and he is already a pattern of remorse, hehe, it is time for him to come down and be sober. ”
"The Emperor of Heaven did not bless me in China, but he favored the Tartars, which is indeed incomprehensible." Xuan Yi thought.
"What's puzzling? Isn't that normal? The voice sneered, "Do you know what is the most fundamental difference between the Heavenly Dao and the Heavenly Emperor?" ”
"Please also ask the seniors for advice." Xuan Yi thought respectfully.
"Heaven has no self, but the Emperor of Heaven has me; Heaven is selfless, but the Emperor of Heaven is selfish. That's the biggest difference. Do you understand? The voice said.
Xuan Yi listened, thought for a while, and said: "Senior, but because the Emperor of Heaven is selfish, if he is private, he will be biased, and if he is biased, he will be covered. The "University" says: "People are dear and refuted, despised and evil, revered and reverent, repelled and refuted, and lazy and refuted." Therefore, those who know their evil and know their beauty and evil are rare in the world! He also said, "A man does not know the evil of his son, nor does he know the fruit of his seed." That's what the seniors meant? ”
"Not bad." The voice laughed, "It's just that there is one more thing you didn't say, that is, the Emperor of Heaven is not 'ignorant of the evil of his son, and does not know the greatness of his seedlings', but 'does not know his own evil, and does not know the fault of self-worship'." Heaven is selfless, so 'heaven and earth are unkind and all things are dogs', whether it is the emperor of heaven, the gods, me or you, they are all dogs, this is the equality of all beings. All living beings are born and die, rise and fall, this is the way of heaven. But the Emperor of Heaven wants to keep his position forever, always keep his best state, hehe, 'Forever Boundless Rest', who can not be tempted by this kind of thing? Even me, in the future, it may not be like this. Or even most of the time. Boy, the emperor of heaven, is the Qiangua in Yi Dao, the Qiangua is masculine, 'Tianxingjian, the gentleman is self-improving', enterprising is the way, and there is the virtue of Huayu all things. But what does the last hexagram say? ”
"I Ching" is one of the three mysteries in Taoism, and there is no one who is not familiar with this classic who is really a Taoist. Xuan Yi replied: "The last one is 'Shangjiu, Kanglong has regrets'." Xiang said: 'Kanglong has regrets, and he can't last long.' "Wenyan" explains: "Noble but no position, high but no people, sages in the lower position and no assistance, is to move and have regrets." ’”
Hearing this, the voice smiled bitterly and said, "Do you know why I said that the Emperor of Heaven is already a dragon?" ”
Xuan Yi said solemnly: "Please also ask the seniors for guidance." ”
"You've also read a lot of Taoist books, who do you think is more powerful than Shinto in ancient times and Shinto today?" The voice didn't answer, but asked.
Xuan Yi thought for a while and said: "In ancient times, all kinds of gods and spirits could turn over rivers and seas, carry mountains and catch the moon, and have the ability to turn the world upside down. Later, when the Jedi Tiantong became a soup, the gods were rarely like this, but the Taoists at that time still had the ability to turn over the river and the sea, so there was the catastrophe of the gods. After the gods, the power of the Taoist priest's Taoism is also declining day by day, and when the dragon is flourishing in this dynasty, the sincerity of the emperor is ordered to cut the dragon veins of the world, whether it is the gods or the Taoists, the power is declining more and more, so it should be that the gods in ancient times are more powerful. ”
"Hahahaha," the voice laughed, but in that laughter, Xuan Yi faintly heard the meaning of misery.
"Senior, is it wrong for the junior?" Xuan Yi hurriedly asked.
"Of course it's wrong, and it's a hundred and eight thousand miles wrong!" The voice said, "When you look at Yao Shun, the reincarnation of the six realms, the construction of heaven and earth, compared to now, how much worse is it? And the elaborate Shinto structure itself is a manifestation of divine power. If the Emperor of Heaven at the time of Yao Shun met the Emperor of Heaven at the time of Zu Long, I am afraid that the Emperor of Heaven at that time of Zulong can overwhelm him with one finger, and if he meets the Emperor of Heaven now, hehe, blowing his breath, can blow him into the eighteenth layer of hell to suppress him. The difference in strength is a million times greater. But what you said is right, the Emperor of Heaven in the time of Yao Shun could indeed move mountains and seas, but the current Emperor of Heaven really does not have such power. Do you know why? ”
"The juniors don't know, and I ask the seniors for guidance." Xuanyi said.
"This is the biggest secret in this world, I told you today, you can't pass it on, otherwise, as long as the Emperor of Heaven is willing, it will be easy to kill you." The voice said.
"The juniors know." Xuanyi said solemnly.
"Actually, the secret is very simple. For example, when you were five or six years old, you were five feet tall; There was a newborn baby who was less than a foot tall. You're five times his height. When the time comes to your weak crown, you are eight feet long; The boy was seven feet tall now. You're only as tall as he is. Is it because you've gotten shorter over the years? No, it's because you don't grow as fast as others. The situation of the Emperor of Heaven and even Shinto is similar here. It's not that Shinto has become weaker, but that humanity has become stronger. ”
