Volume 1: Once Upon a Time in the Capital Chapter 107: The National Teacher Discusses People

The ugly lady sat there, although the physical pain made her sweat, but her heart was still sweet.

Li Xiangru supported the ugly girl and walked slowly towards the small courtyard.

At the top of the clouds, Chen Qingfeng, who saw that the dragon was not the end, rarely put on the auspicious cloud rune robe that symbolized the identity of the national teacher, and silently watched the two people staggering below.

There was a cold and glamorous girl standing next to her, the girl was dressed in a white dress, three thousand green silk fluttering, and the white skirt moved with the wind, like a willow floating with the wind. There was a chill between the eyebrows.

"Master, I don't understand. The girl asked with a frown.

Chen Qingfeng looked at Li Xiangru and the two of them, who were covered by the green mountains and bushes, and when he heard the girl's question, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said seriously: "Bai Su, let go of your cold arrogance." Look at others with a normal heart. In this way, you will be able to discover the good in others, so that you can perceive your own reasons. Tianshan and his party, as the teacher can see, your heart has been slightly shaken. It's good, it's not good. Fortunately, you already know that there are more people in this world than you think. The bad thing is that you are afraid that you will doubt yourself and damage your Dao heart. ”

The girl is Bai Su who has returned from the Tianshan Mountains. Tianshan and his line, when they reached the mountainside, they returned with feathers. After descending the mountain, Bai Su was no longer as arrogant as before, and more than half a month passed in a daze. Chen Qingfeng sighed slightly when he saw that he had been in a slump, but he did not ask what happened in the mountains. was worried that the demon barrier in her heart would collapse, so she felt that she would bring him to the capital to see the various states of all beings, and Li Xiangru became an object of study for Bai Su.

This is not an answer, which made Bai Su's brows frown even tighter, and she didn't understand why the master asked her to accompany her to observe Li Xiangru. Suspiciously, he turned his head to look at Chen Qingfeng, his voice was still indifferent, and he repeated: "What I asked is, why?"

"Li Xiangru told me a story about the land of ants, and at first I thought he was a strong word, but then after thinking about it, I felt that it made sense. He said that he was very small, and that he was only an insignificant ant under the vast stars, but that an ant could still bite even if it was kneaded and trampled on when he was in a hurry. Small is power, but comparable to the sun and the moon is the heart. Chen Qingfeng still avoided Bai Sudi's question, raised his arm and pointed to the rising sun, and said: "Look at that round of red sun, it also has a downturn in the middle of the day, but even if the rolling clouds are as black as ink, they still can't always cover its brilliance and heat. ”

Bai Su lowered his head, he didn't fully understand the true meaning of the words. Does this round of red sun describe her or that Li Xiangru? At the age of eight, when he was discovered by the national teacher, he was amazed by his cultivation talent and accepted him as a disciple.

In the past ten years, she has never disappointed Chen Qingfeng in her cultivation, if she has to say that she is disappointed, only this trip to the Tianshan Mountains has been successful, although Chen Qingfeng has not blamed or dissatisfied her because of this. It's like an eagle that has been soaring in the sky overlooking everything in the world suddenly falls off and has no wings. This mood, or this gap, hit her hard. Even as Chen Qingfeng said, there are faint traces of instability in the heart.

Chen Qingfeng looked at Bai Su with his head down, and continued to analyze the cocoon: "Li Xiang is such a person, he came from Gongzhou to burn the city, do you know the case of Lu Changfeng's destruction of the door that night five years ago?"

Bai Su raised his head when he heard this, glanced at him suspiciously, and then nodded.

At that time, although she had been practicing all year round, Master rarely let her come into contact with the outside world, in order to cultivate her pure state of mind.

Cheng Liben, the old general of Jingguo, stood in the square outside the main hall and angrily scolded the military generals of Wenchen, and the military generals of Wenchen avoided it. The four major academies jointly wrote a letter angrily denouncing this traitorous minister for being in power, and even the common people were angry, and Emperor Jingzhi had no choice but to kill more than a dozen officials to vent the people's anger.

But she still heard a little about this uproarious murder case, and even Lu Changfeng was quite fascinated when she heard about his deeds.

This case can be said to have silently become a shame for the royal family, because Emperor Jingzhi bowed his head to Loulan and exchanged a truce contract at the cost of Lu Changfeng's life!

"Lu Changfeng is a person, who followed his father to fight against the princes, destroyed the two countries of Qi and Yue, and made great contributions to the unification of Kyushu in Jingguo, it can be said that the reason why Jingguo has today is that Lu Changfeng's father and son have made great contributions!"

When Bai Su heard this, the corners of her mouth glanced slightly, even if she admired Lu Changfeng again, it would not make Chen Qingfeng raise it so high.

Chen Qingfeng caught a glimpse of Bai Su's expression, knowing that she was slightly unconvinced, she didn't care, and smiled: "Maybe you think that there will be Li Changfeng and Liu Changfeng in this world, right?"

Bai Su is noncommittal.

Chen Qingfeng smiled again and said, "Then do you know that with Cheng Liben's identity as a great pillar country, he is still as humble as a student in front of Lu Changfeng's father?"

Bai Su frowned slightly, but she had never heard of the secret affairs of the court. With Cheng Liben's military talent and the ability to march and set up formations, but he will still be a disciple of others?

"Cheng Liben once served under the father of Lu Changfeng. Chen Qingfeng said lightly.

Bai Su still doesn't understand, even if Cheng Liben's ability is not as good as Lu Changfeng's father, it doesn't mean that he is not as good as Lu Changfeng, right? Moreover, for many years, the court has never heard any rumors about Cheng Liben's apprenticeship with Lu Changfeng's father. In a blink of an eye, she suddenly figured out that the reason why her father and emperor attacked Lu Shishuai was not because she was afraid of Lu Changfeng's 300,000 military armor and prestige in the army.

Seeing that he seemed to have realized, Chen Qingfeng nodded happily and continued: "The ability of the road is longwind, especially his father!"

Bai Su was shocked when he heard this, and asked, "So Lu Shishuai has been in a corner of peace all these years, just to prevent the emperor from being suspicious?"

Chen Qingfeng nodded and shook his head, Bai Su was even more puzzled.

"Taoguang has the intention of cultivating obscurity, and there is also Lu Changfeng...... Chen Qingfeng also showed a rare look of confusion at this time, and hesitated: "Quite foolish and loyal, or ...... For what?"

Chen Qingfeng made an inference that he didn't quite believe.

Bai Su had no interest in these old things of the sesame land of rotten grains, and said with a cold face a little impatiently: "Master, you are talking too far, we are talking about Li Xiangru." ”

Chen Qingfeng didn't care about Bai Su's attitude, and still said to himself: "Lu Changfeng entered the Tao with martial arts, broke the mirror twelve, and at the age of eighteen, he destroyed the Qi country with his father, and killed Qi Lexuan, the third-ranked master of the Qi country in the upright and prime, for more than three hundred rounds, but in the end he was defeated because Qi Lexuan's physical strength was not good. ”

Bai Su frowned, she didn't have any idea of Qi Lexuan's strength, but just listening to the age of Qi Guosan and Lu Changfeng at that time, she already felt very powerful. The country of Qi is still martial and capable of producing many people.

When her father was only a prince, I heard him sigh, my country's martial arts are weaker than literature, but literati read the books of the earth saints mostly for fame, for the glory of the ancestors, how can there be military generals who really grab the sword neatly. If it weren't for the faint and treacherous ministers of Qi, it would be difficult for them to defeat the Qi State.

Chen Qingfeng felt that the brewing and foreshadowing were almost over, so he coughed dryly, took out a wine jug from his waist, took a sip gently, and said: "Lu Changfeng favors Li Xiangru well, even better than his children and nephews. Even the military division An Zifeng, when he was dying, also sent 200 soldiers to cover him!"

Bai Su was surprised, still puzzled, she witnessed the whole process of Li Xiangru and the old ghost in the mountain, Li Xiangru had nothing else to show except for the fight and the last one like a majestic sword like moonlight, if she came, she didn't dare to say how many moves to take down the old ghost, but it would not be so embarrassing. And he had just awakened the gluttonous spirit in his body, which was too slow, right? You know, the phoenix power in her body had been activated when she was eleven years old, and now it had slowly merged with her divine sense, but Li Xiangru was almost controlled by gluttony.

She also naturally knew that the reason why the old ghost summoned the Dry Corpse Dao was also because of the heroic aura emitted by Master Chen Qingfeng, so that the old ghost had some scruples. When the old ghost couldn't even take Li Xiangru, how could he dare to fight, so he fled in a hurry.

Looking at Li Xiangru's dialogue with the ugly girl after the war, it can be seen that he has fallen into the love between men and women, and you must know that as a cultivator, if you want to reach the state of formlessness, you must no longer have the slightest thought of the world in your heart.

"Li Xiangru, it's not worth such a high evaluation!" Bai Su stretched his eyebrows and said conclusively.

Chen Qingfeng glanced at Bai Su, sighed lightly, pointed his finger at her, and said, "You, you, as a teacher, I want you to maintain a kind of pride, but not to make you proud all the time." Confucian sage Zeng Yun: There must be my teacher in a threesome line. If you don't let go of some arrogance, it will become a shackle and bind you. ”

"If you want to talk about talent, Li Xiangru is not necessarily as tall as you, and the so-called natural treasures are not as abundant as you. However, he came out of the sea of corpses and blood, and he was a small soldier who wandered through life and death on the border of the burning city of Gongzhou, and he knew better than anyone how to survive, and he also knew how to use external forces to achieve his goals when he was weak. After experiencing that kind of great change, his demons have grown, maintaining humility and charity on the surface, but only murder in his heart. The gluttonous nature of the bad root nourishes his inner demons even more, so why has he been living well and not being devoured by gluttony? Do you know?" Chen Qingfeng said earnestly, he didn't expect Bai Su to answer, and directly pointed out: "Only keep your heart!"

When Bai Su heard this, his heart was slight. Ponder these four words carefully.

Chen Qingfeng looked in the direction of Yanjing, but did not continue to explain the meaning of these four words. Cultivation relies on enlightenment, not on words. To say that among all his disciples, only Bai Su is the most important to him and gives him the most headaches. On the contrary, Li Xiangru, who was not favored by him at the beginning, gave him a lot of surprises.

"When Li Xiangru went to the ground under Mo Dawei's door, he was more beaten by Mo Dawei, but everything he saw became gluttonous food, which is why Li Xiangru was still unable to improve although he entered the realm of celestial phenomena. In order to suppress the power of melting gluttony, Mo Dawei finally did not hesitate to die to find the spirit of the poor and seal it into Li Xiangru's body to feed the gluttony, they were all nourishing the gluttony. Once the gluttony is formed, devouring Li Xiangru's body and then allowing it to grow will be a catastrophe for the human race, which is why the teacher asked Boren to pay more attention to Li Xiangru in the capital. If he can refine the gluttony, he will be the most likely to become one of the saints in a thousand years. Chen Qingfeng said slowly, and pointed to the two figures who were still staggering between the mountains and forests, and said: "After being lit by Master Zhou of Goose Lake Academy, Li Xiangru began to have love in his heart. This woman is a light in the darkness of his life. ”

Chen Qingfeng stood with his hands in his hands, staring at Li Xiangru and the two of them disappearing into the jungle again, then retracted his gaze and floated forward a few steps. Looking back at Bai Su, who was stubborn and unconvinced, he shook his head, and stopped talking, but after all, he just frowned and flew away. Let Bai Su stand as a contemplative reflection.

Bai Su still stood there quietly and looked at the two of them who were still supporting the ground before entering the courtyard, and a woman in red greeted her with sharp and hasty steps, talked to them, looked at them for a long time, and moved her eyes to the back of Chen Qingfeng leaving.

Chen Qingfeng rarely told her so many truths, and his evaluation of people was basically concise and to the point, but this Li Xiangru was the only one. In her impression, this was the second time, and she said it in such detail that she didn't even hide the slightest appreciation.

These words caused ripples in her calm heart.

After a long time, Bai Su looked around the empty field, sighed lightly, and his fierce eyes became dim at this moment, and muttered, "Am I really inferior to him?"
