Chapter 170: Wen Dou, On the Country

The eldest grandson Wuji, who is also a legendary figure in the Tang Dynasty, is the first of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion!

Not only that, the eldest grandson Wuji and Tang Taizong Li Shimin are friends of cloth, and his sister Changsun is the Holy Empress of Wende Shun and Li Shimin's wife. In terms of generation, the eldest grandson Wuji is the brother-in-law of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty!

A large part of the reason why the eldest grandson Wuji can rank first among the twenty-four meritorious heroes of the Lingyan Pavilion is because the eldest grandson Wuji is not only a civil minister, but also a military general, and is a generation of famous generals who are both civil and military, and his contribution is far higher than that of other courtiers in the current dynasty.

Even Qin Qiong, who was the most popular in the secular world, was only ranked at the end of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion.

With the appearance of the eldest grandson Wuji, the identity of the owner behind this mausoleum has gradually become clear, and it seems that the appearance of each person is related to another person - Li Shimin.

Liu Ding's previous words made Li Luohao wonder if he had the blood of the Li Tang royal family flowing in his body, and in order to find out the truth, Li Luohao tried to get some valuable clues from the mouth of the eldest grandson Wuji.

Li Luohao said respectfully: "Seniors, so many famous generals and great men of the Li and Tang dynasties are here, could it be that this is the inheritance of the mausoleum set up by Emperor Taizong?"

Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji smiled, did not answer positively, but said ambiguously:

"Li Tang's pulse is exhausted, and it doesn't matter whether this mausoleum is set up or not. ”

"In this prosperous era, it is time for a new generation of Tianjiao to carry the banner. Although you have a relationship with Li Tang, you also have to depend on chance. ”

For some reason, for matters related to the owner of the mausoleum and Li Luohao's life experience, whether it is Liu Ding or the eldest grandson Wuji, they are all unclear and vague. It seems that both of them are deliberately avoiding this topic, just waiting for Li Luohao to find the answer by himself.

In other words, before Li Luohao found the answer, even Liu Ding and the eldest grandson Wuji could not solve the mystery of Li Luohao's life experience.

The eldest grandson Wuji seemed to see what Li Luohao was thinking, and reassured:

"Everything needs you to find answers, you are very much like my family when I was young, I believe he will like you. ”

After speaking, the eldest grandson Wuji stroked his long sleeves, waved his big hand, and conjured up a few mahogany pear blossom benches and a square sandalwood tea table in the air, on which a pot of fragrant tea was placed, which made people intoxicated and lingered.

In such a harmonious and quiet elegant environment, the eldest grandson Wuji has an amiable smile on his face, which is very useful, and even in this environment, people can spontaneously have a sense of happiness.

The eldest grandson Wuji waved his hand lightly at Li Luohao, motioning for Li Luohao to sit opposite him and drink tea.

Through careful perception of all aspects, Li Luohao found that the breath of the eldest grandson Wuji was peaceful and natural, melodious and self-satisfied, and there was no danger at all.

So, Li Luohao sat down with the eldest grandson Wuji with confidence and boldness, and after making a junior salute, he talked with the eldest grandson Wuji:

Li Luohao said: "The army on the first floor of the Treasure Pavilion has reached the realm, I don't know why the predecessors are so Yaxing?"

The eldest grandson Wuji poured a cup of fragrant tea and handed it to Li Luohao, and said with a smile:

"Everyone knows that I'm extraordinary, but they don't know that I don't like to fight and kill. Compared with Yu Zhu and Yizhen, I am more inclined to 'Wendou'. ”

Li Luohao didn't know why, and said, "Wen Dou, how do you say this?"

The eldest grandson Wuji took a sip of tea and said slowly:

As the name suggests, Wendou is naturally about tasting tea and convincing people with reason. Those who convince others with strength are not convinced, and they are not supported; those who convince others with reason and virtue are convinced by the center. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Li Luohao to speak, the eldest grandson Wuji continued:

"This is a battle without gunpowder, and the fact that you can get here already shows that your strength is already amazing, and there is no need to continue to prove it here. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji waved his hand to Yuan Jie, Tianmengyao and the others behind Li Luohao, and said loudly:

"Go, look for what you want on the second floor of this treasure pavilion, it's not easy to get here, take what you want, it's what you deserve. ”

"And don't forget to open your mind and witness the battle between the two of us. ”

At this point, the eldest grandson Wuji was left with Li Luohao alone, while the others were separated.

Li Luohao smiled helplessly, he was a rising star, and it was only a year since he stepped into the cultivation world, and while pursuing combat power, he not only had to face all kinds of strong enemies in Tiannan and Haibei, but also faced the eldest grandson Wuji, a famous historical general with both civil and military skills, in the way of literary fighting.

This is a difficult or even difficult thing for anyone to do.

Although he knew this very well, Li Luohao did not retreat because of this, but in the face of a famous and wonderful man like the eldest grandson Wuji, he had a trace of the idea of wanting to surpass it, and this idea is still expanding.

Under the clear instructions of the eldest grandson Wuji, the remaining four had to take this opportunity to find the resources they needed in the vast second floor, although this was a good thing, but leaving Li Luohao alone against a strong man like the eldest grandson Wuji, everyone's hearts were not at ease.

However, after thinking about it, this eldest grandson Wuji is much stronger than Cheng Biting Jin, and it is conservatively estimated that at least he uses the cultivation of the peak of the inferior God Emperor, and he may even be a medium God Emperor! If the eldest grandson Wuji really has ill thoughts about Li Luohao and his party like Cheng Biting Jin, then there is no need to engage in such a high-sounding set.

Thinking of this, everyone's hanging hearts can be put down. In the current situation, the four of them can't help at all, and they can only do what the eldest grandson Wuji said.

After only Li Luohao and the eldest grandson Wuji were left, Li Luohao knew that this was a "vicious fight", and it would be very unfavorable to him if he had been passive, so Li Luohao must make every effort to find factors that are beneficial to him.

So, Li Luohao asked tentatively: "I don't know seniors, what kind of fighting method do you want?"

The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile: "The times change, the fate is changing, one dynasty after another is drowned in the long river of history, and generation after generation of emperors disappear in the struggle of the night. Why don't you and I be called brothers today, and talk about the country as a country?"

"On the national highway?"

Hearing this, Li Luohao couldn't help but wonder and frowned.

Regarding the topic of "On the Country", in fact, Li Luohao does not have a clear concept. If you simply talk about modern China in the secular world, Li Luohao may still be able to say a few words.

However, regarding the rise and fall of countless dynasties and states in the cultivation world, Li Luohao is indeed a little vague about the concept of this so-called "country".

The concept of "state" in the cultivation world is different from that in the secular world. Because in the cultivation world, the birth of a "country" blindly coincides with the rise of a dynasty. In plain terms, a dynasty in the cultivation world is not considered a country, because its internal structure and operation mode are not much different from those of a sect force, but the ultimate goal and development direction are different.

What a sect pursues is to continue the inheritance, while what a generation of dynasties pursues is to create the situation of the times.

It's like having two mortals, one person feels that living in peace, accumulating savings over time, slowly developing a career, passing on the family lineage, and watching his children fight for themselves, these are the most important things. The other believes that he must become a pillar of talent, a great man who can change the world, and this kind of life is meaningful.

The pursuit of the two is different, and there is no such thing as which is superior or inferior, which is stronger or weaker. But in the final analysis, although there is no comparison between the two, the operation of a dynasty and a force is extremely similar, and Li Luohao really doesn't know how to position a "country" like a dynasty.

Judging from this topic, Li Luohao fell into a disadvantage from the beginning.

However, Li Luohao did not mess up because of this, since he didn't know how to define the "country" in the cultivation world, let's learn and sell it now, and see how the eldest grandson Wuji understood the "country" in the cultivation world.

Li Luohao clenched his fists and said: "In this case, the younger generation wants to hear the high opinions of the seniors, but I don't know how the seniors understand the 'country'. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji drank all the fragrant tea in the teacup, suddenly his face froze, and he said solemnly:

"The so-called national road, so it is its origin, but it is only a means of war, and without war, there is no country. ”

"Heaven and earth are humble and determined, and they are humble and high to become upper and lower, and there are kings and ministers, and there are ministers and people. The people accumulate the people into the country, and the country becomes the world. ”

"No matter how a dynasty rises and falls, its original one is only to dominate the world, create the current situation, and consolidate the interests of the imperial family. It's just that in the middle of it, the things that dominate the world and seek advantages and avoid disadvantages for the weak can be done easily, so the "country" is called its name: it is called the common people in the world. ”

"The world is hot and cold, and the weak eat the strong. From the moment a dynasty appeared, it was destined to move towards the road of interests, and the so-called 'heart for heaven and earth, life for the people, for the sake of the saints, and peace for all generations', is just a beautiful country in the imagination of the world. ”

Speaking of this, the eldest grandson Wuji paused, there seemed to be some helplessness and bitterness in his eyes, but it was fleeting, as if he had lost hope in something, and he reluctantly chose to compromise.

The eldest grandson Wuji continued: "Although the essence of the 'country' is so vulgar and despicable, its final development result can still achieve the beautiful ideal of dominating the world and seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages for the weak. And that's why I chose to take this path. ”

"Li Luohao, I don't know if you are willing to contribute your own strength to this beautiful ideal shared by all people?"

After listening to the opinions of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Luohao couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

In a sense, although the views of the eldest grandson Wuji are too negative, what they say is indeed the truth.

A generation of dynasties, that is, the "country" of the cultivation world, was destined to move towards the path of interests from the moment it appeared. Only by constantly becoming stronger can the dynasty's ultimate long-cherished wish be achieved.

Despite the name of the country, the essence of the path taken is still vulgar.

Although, the final result is what everyone wants, but the process of this development can already be described as "unscrupulous".

It's like a person is pursuing a dream that everyone wants to achieve, but for the sake of the dream, this person uses all kinds of dirty means halfway through, and gives it the name of the so-called "chasing dreams", and this person finally succeeds and accomplishes what everyone dreams of.

Under such circumstances, how should the world evaluate him? Is he an unscrupulous villain or a great man chasing dreams?
