Chapter 143: Night Talk

At this time, there were still several hours before the hour, and the night was long, but it was boring.

If Zhang Yuelu is here, the two can still talk, but they can be replaced by Yao Pei, then there is nothing to say, not to mention that the two have just known each other, and it is not easy to talk deeply, just say that Yao Pei's indifference after cultivating the "Taishang Forgetfulness Sutra" will make it difficult for people to have an interest in communicating with him.

But today is an exception, because Yao Pei is awake, and he has been awake for a long time, and it seems that fighting against the various drawbacks of the "Taishang Forgetting Love Sutra" is very exhausting, so the usual half-dreaming and half-awake are all about reducing consumption, accumulating strength, and then bursting out in one breath when needed.

After Yao Pei put away the Ding furnace and the imitation jade plate, he suddenly asked, "Qi Daoyou, do you like to drink?" ”

Qi Xuansu asked rhetorically, "You women like to drink?" ”

"You guys." The corners of Yao Pei's mouth pulled a small arc, even if he smiled, "You mean that Qingxiao Daoyou also like to drink?" ”

Qi Xuansu said: "Although it can't be said that he is addicted to alcohol, he is a good drinker, and he drinks a lot." ”

Yao Pei said: "I don't like to drink, but since I practiced the 'Taishang Forgetfulness Sutra', I have been drinking a lot. It is said that wine is bold and intimidating, and it is said that after drinking and spitting out the truth, I found that wine can stimulate my emotions, although as I practice the 'Taishang Forgetfulness Sutra' deepens, this effect is getting smaller and smaller, but for now, it is still somewhat useful. So I often drink alcohol to keep 'sobriety' before doing something. ”

While speaking, Yao Pei took out a wine jar from Sumeru that Qi Xuansu was very familiar with.

Qi Xuansu blurted out: "'Drunk life and dream death'? ”

"Good insight." Yao Pei placed the wine jar on the coffee table between the two main seats in the main hall, "It is 'drunk life and dream death', after I became a celestial, only this wine still has some effect." ”

Yao Pei sat on the left side, and Qi Xuansu sat on the right, but they didn't sit facing each other, they both had their backs to the north and facing south.

Because the stamina of "drunk life and dream death" is too great, Yao Pei did not force Qi Xuansu to drink with her, but directly drank it slowly with the wine jar.

After drinking too much, Yao Pei's words gradually increased: "The Sixth Generation Great Palm Sect is a good person, but he is not a competent Great Palm Sect. On the contrary, the Five Generations of Great Masters is definitely not a good person in the traditional sense, but he is an extremely competent Great Leader. If you had to choose, what kind of master would you want? ”

Qi Xuansu said: "Now I am definitely not qualified to elect the Great Palm Sect, then I must hope that the Five Generations of Great Palm Sect will be in power, at least he can restrain the three disputes and keep the Dao Sect stable." Only when the Dao Gate is stabilized can we Taoist priests have a good life. But...... If I have the qualifications to be elected as the head of the school, then I can't say. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Yao Pei kept drinking, the more others drank, the more confused they became, and the more they drank, the redder their faces became, but the more she drank, the more sober she became, and the more she drank, the whiter her face became.

Qi Xuansu hesitated for a while, as if he was considering whether to talk about it, and finally said: "Qi Niang said that power is the poison that alienates human nature, and few people can resist its erosion. I don't know what kind of person I will be in the future, and I can't guarantee that my heart will not change, I sometimes wonder if I will become a different person when I am in power? Just like those in the two Jiangnan cases. If I have the qualifications to elect the Great Leader, it will be a big man at the level of a real person, and I am still happy to have someone above me to control me everywhere? Am I still willing to be conscientious and behaved? ”

Yao Pei looked at the night outside the door: "You're right. Many times, many people do not hate the superior, but hate that they are not the superior, and when they really get on the top, they are still doing the same old thing, and there are very few people who can keep their hearts. ”

Qi Xuansu said: "Come and don't be rude, since you asked me a question, can I also ask you a question?" ”

"Ask." Yao Pei continued to drink.

She and Zhang Yuelu both drink, but they are completely different. Zhang Yuelu likes to drink, not to use wine to kill his sorrows, six points are for tasting the taste of wine, three points are for enjoying the slightly drunk feeling after drinking, and one point is for indulgence, so he has his own pride. Yao Pei regarded drinking as a last resort, which was almost the same as drinking medicine, so she drank without emotion, no pride, and no sorrow, just kept repeating.

Qi Xuansu organized his words slightly and asked, "If you do the Great Palm Sect, for example, the Eighth Generation Great Palm Sect, are you the Fifth Generation Great Palm Sect?" Or do you want to be a sixth-generation master? ”

Yao Pei paused for a moment, obviously a little stopped by this question, but still said: "Actually, I don't want to do these two kinds of big palm teachings." The six generations of the Great Palm Sect are because of the Great Palm Sect, not only half of their lives have been wasted, but they even have to leave a bad name after thousands of years. Even if you don't care about your name, when you are in power, you are controlled everywhere, and you are not happy at all. So what's the trouble? ”

"As for the Five Generations of Great Masters, it is glamorous and glamorous, and it is true that the power is in hand. But he doesn't have the great prestige of Xuan Sheng, how can he centralize power? In addition to ability, but also because of two words, heart. It is said that nine out of the twelve hours a day in the five generations of the Great Palm Sect are dealing with various affairs, and they can even reach the level of the more important Taoist priest, who knows the situation of each palace, each house, and each hall well, and no one can deceive them in the slightest, so as to achieve a high degree of control over the Taoist sect and concentrate power in their own hands. But if you don't have the ability and don't want to be attentive, you can only put power into the hands of others. It's just that this kind of power, even for the immortals, is too tiring and too consuming of mental experience, so there has only been one five-generation Great Palm Sect for so many years. ”

"Then there is, whether it is the thunderous methods of the Five Generations of Great Palm Sect, the rectification of the atmosphere, or the implementation of the New Deal, I don't know how many people are offended, and the name behind him is not very good, at most it is slightly better than the Six Generations of Great Palm Sect, which can be described as a mixed reputation. After the ascension, it cannot be said that people go to politics, but many measures have also been deposed, and they are busy in vain, and the traces are shallow. ”

Qi Xuansu sighed: "Since it's so difficult, then why are you still fighting?" If it is not for justice, not for the sake of fame, is it for one's own selfish gain? ”

Yao Pei asked rhetorically: "Does this 'you' include Zhang Yuelu?" Is that also you? ”

Qi Xuansu didn't answer directly, but said: "Yao Daoyou looks up to me too much, I am a Daoist priest of Buyiye, how can the Daomen be important to me?" ”

Yao Pei said calmly: "If I can be a great master, I will follow the example of the Taishang Dao Ancestor, rule by inaction, no right or wrong, no merit and no fault, no good and no evil." ”

Qi Xuansu smiled: "Xuansheng once said: The person who is the most yang, if he has no desire, he is fearless, and if he is fearless, he is fearless. Those who are in the yin often do nothing and do nothing. I probably can't see the supreme realm of doing nothing, I can only see the power of doing everything. ”

Yao Pei's face was expressionless, just tilting his head and drinking.

A jar of "drunken life and dream death" was quickly drunk by her.

From beginning to end, Qi Xuansu not only did not drink a drop of wine, but also did not cross the line at all, abiding by the promise he made to Zhang Yuelu.

In fact, Sun Hewu's words gave Qi Xuansu a wake-up call, and he even felt that the words of the old man seemed to be for Yao Pei, but it seemed to warn him in advance not to have any thoughts that should not be born. After all, judging from the fact that Zhang Yuelu can bother the old man to open a convenient door for Qi Xuansu, the relationship between the two should be good, and the old man must be partial to Zhang Yuelu.

Qi Xuansu doesn't think that Zhang Yuelu and Yao Pei are like-minded people, judging from Yao Pei's use of the "Little Ecstasy Method" and the imitation of jade plates, like Qi Niang, he is by no means a good person. If Yao Pei wants to target Zhang Yuelu, then he can really do something to break through from Qi Xuansu.

Whether Yao Pei can take a fancy to him or not, whether he has such thoughts, is Yao Pei's business. Qi Xuansu has any thoughts about Yao Pei that he shouldn't have, and whether he can keep his distance is his business, he just needs to do his own thing.

Yao Pei casually put the empty wine jar aside and began to close his eyes to recuperate.

Qi Xuansu was just thinking about all kinds of messy things, including about Zhang Yuelu, about Qi Niang, and about his future.

He suddenly found that his pattern seemed to be really small, and thinking about it was the little thing in his small family, how the world was, and how the common people lived, which rarely made him worry.

How can such a person be a great teacher?

The two of them sat for half a night, and when it was dawn, it was time again.

Yao Pei opened her eyes, got up and put away the talismans and red threads that she had pasted to the four corners, and said, "It's almost time, let's go." ”

Qi Xuansu stood up.

The two left Zhenyuan separately and came to Genyuan, and then, as usual, went directly to the library building, even if someone saw it, they would not feel strange, after all, for most of the past half a month, the two of them have been like this, rain or shine.

Qi Xuansu didn't practice the knife today, but just sat in the stone room of the "magic knife", looked at the pocket watch, and waited until the beginning of the morning, and then came out of the cave in the library building to meet Yao Pei.

With last night's experience, the two of them are familiar with the road this time, but they chose another more deserted alley, and it is really as Yao Pei said, the imitation token is no different from the real thing, and the ban can be opened freely, but after using it once, the imitation jade plate has become much darker.

After entering the alley, Yao Pei took out another talisman and temporarily generated an illusion at the entrance of the alley, turning into a translucent crystalline wall, and even the Taoist sign of Tai Chi Bagua, which was exactly the same as the original prohibition. If you don't touch it yourself, you will never find out that this is an illusion, but at this time, no one will come here to test whether the ban is true or not.

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but sigh: "You have really been planning for a long time. ”

Yao Pei said lightly: "Only by planning and moving can you add a little certainty." ”

Then, the two entered the Tianshui Yixin Building again, because the time was pressing, so they didn't care about anything else, and went straight to the staircase to the second floor.
