"The 'impotence' you mentioned, I think it can indeed be solved with the help of the Liuku Immortal Thief...... But what about the bigger trouble after that? Tang Muzhi, how are you going to solve it? ”

Ruan Feng spoke very frankly about the major flaw of the Liuku Immortal Thief, that is, due to the high-level intake of energy, people will have the desire to eat people, and Ding Daoan thought of something else.

"Get rid of the Liuku Immortal Thief...... Will the other Eight Wonders also have such flaws? ”

Ruan Feng frowned and replied that he didn't know.

Ding Dao'an then asked, "Then before you created the Liuku Immortal Thief, didn't you take into account this so-called 'defect'?" ”

Ruan Feng did not speak again.

"Flawed, I don't think so." Tang Muzhi said in a deep voice: "From the changes in the strength of Ruan Feng's predecessors before and after cannibalism, we can know that maybe the Liuku Immortal Thief was originally going to eat people and can cultivate to Dacheng, right?" ”

Ruan Feng clenched his fists, feeling the abundant strength in his body at all times, "What Tang Xiaozi said is indeed right. The Liuku Immortal Thief itself is not flawed, it is the concept of the inheritor that restricts it - the problem of cultivation, I can only say that the flesh and blood of a foreigner is better than his years of penance. ”

"That's good, the problem of the Liuku Immortal Thief is the problem of people, and the problem of people is the problem of the heart. I have the same concept as Ruan Feng's predecessors, and I don't want Ye Kexin to become a cannibalistic alien. Tang Muzhi said: "The Liuku Immortal Thief will turn cannibalism into an innate instinctive desire, so Ruan Feng's predecessors chose to hide in the aura of the Snow Mountain, away from the crowd to restrain their desires - this is already a determination and realm that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, this method is indeed effective, at least four or four years to now, most of the time you have spent more than fifty years like this, if it weren't for this accident, do you think you would have the day when you couldn't bear to go out of the mountain alone?" ”

“…… Yes. Ruan Feng said dejectedly: "I have to face endless loneliness every day, if it weren't for me, the most expensive person, I would have been tired of being someone else." The exuberant energy derives countless colorful thoughts in the brain, and you also discovered when you and I empathized before, my meditation is very bad, right? ”

Tang Muzhi pondered for a moment and said truthfully: "It's the qualification—that is, the level of the alchemists who usually have more distracting thoughts. ”

Ruan Feng leaned back on the wooden chair and said self-deprecatingly: "Hehe, that's it." Speaking of what you two boys thought when they first saw me, I knew very well in my heart: Thirty-six thieves are so virtuous? Right? ”

"Whether you believe it or not, when we were righteous, we were all in the limelight of various sects when we brought one out, such as the Heavenly Master's Mansion, Shuzimen, Liangshan, and Tangmen...... There is also the whole nature, these people's behavior is bold, but it is not an exaggeration to say that they are dragons and phoenixes among people, right? The people I befriended, as far as Lian Qi was concerned, was it the kind of mediocre person who was impetuous? ”

"I have never joined any sect in my life, nor have I worshipped the master, whether it is the kung fu of Deqi or the sage thief, I realized it by myself when I was a child, can anyone around you do it?"

Ding Daoan subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he had seen it after practicing foreign skills and being self-taught, but it was the first time he had heard of it when he could still get a sense of Qi from reading a book.

"So, you mean, after being away from the crowd, as time goes by, your meditation practice gradually decreases, right?" Tang Muzhi asked.

"It's obvious – of course, it's a little bit related to what happened to me back then, and it hit me hard." Ruan Feng grinned.

"But where is that? How many days do I have to live, decades? Hundreds of years? Who can say for sure what will happen in this? The little time I spent trying my best to restrain my desires was only the beginning. I'm like that myself, so I don't want to put it to the test—you know, people are the hardest to test. ”

Ding Daoan couldn't help but say: "Then ...... after you?"

Ruan Feng said in a deep voice: "This has nothing to do with you." Virtue is not worthy, I have my own pitiful set of insistence, but now that the first line of defense has collapsed, it is normal to be defeated by reality one day and be willing to fall. It's just that I'm not tired of being alive yet, and I won't show up easily in China, and I won't reveal the information of your two little things, don't worry. ”

Ruan Feng said to Tang Muzhi again: "You are the purest person I have ever seen, if it is you to inherit the Liuku Immortal Thief, it may be more appropriate." But I can see that since the cannibalistic desire brought by the Liuku Immortal Thief can't affect you, then the moral question of whether to eat or not cannibalism is probably not something you will think too much about, as long as you think, you can naturally ignore both ends - if someone is a little lower than you, can restrain the desire to eat people and is bound by morality and will never take that step, such a person is the most ideal successor in my expectations. ”

Ruan Feng showed a look of regret on his face, who can confirm these things, the realm of Jinggong and the bottom line of morality, these are originally two extremely ambiguous things.

It is good to say that the Bodhisattva Buddha and the predecessors of Taoism have pointed out many characteristics of the corresponding realm; But the question of whether to eat or not to eat people is not to that point, who can say for sure.

Barron is the one who passed Ruan Feng's test in terms of morality, and he was happy to see his kind, and he couldn't bear to lose his stunt like this, so Ruan Feng passed on the Liuku Immortal Thief to him.

Tang Muzhi thought for a while, and finally stretched out his hand: "My means of empathy have always been shown to be very good, but according to my experience, it seems to be helpful to the practice of meditation for others, Ye Kexin is a member of my Tang Sect, and I have lived together for a long time......

"Oh?" Ding Dao'an looked at Tang Muzhi curiously, and then said solemnly: "Although it is not appropriate for me to say this as a friend, my generation of cultivators is very taboo and indulgent. You're not an adult, so don't get too much into it......"

"Stop, stop...... Where do you want to go? Tang Muzhi hurriedly interrupted the talk, and then said a little funny: "Lao Ding, you are also twenty-five or sixteen, won't you still be a child?" ”

Ding Daoan pursed his lips disdainfully and did not speak.

This attitude of not being up or down made Tang Muzhi a little uncertain.

Retracted the gossip thoughts, Tang Muzhi returned to the topic.

"That's why I said that the problem of the Liuku Immortal Thief is the problem of people, no, aren't the two problems slowly coming to the surface. One is whether or not he can resist the physical and psychological problems brought about by the cultivation of the Liuku Immortal Thief, and the other is the question of the person's own moral bottom line. Senior Ruan Feng, if you believe in the efficacy of my empathy, then only the moral issue remains. ”

Ruan Feng obviously hesitated, he bit his lip and fell into thought.

Tang Muzhi's empathy is indeed special.

In fact, the so-called empathy, generally speaking, is to be able to experience the emotional thinking of others, and then understand this person better; A more advanced skill, you can use micro-actions and words to connect yourself with the similar emotions of others, and slowly feedback different things to the other party.

These skills, not to mention the alchemists, are even the possibility that ordinary people can master them in depth after study and training.

Of course, the functions shown by alchemists are more complicated, for example, those who practice the orthodox Four Meditations and Eight Meditation Gongs, and when they reach the realm of the Four Meditations, they can easily master the five spiritual powers - among them, their mental skills can gain insight into people's hearts to a certain extent, which is much better than ordinary people using empathy.

But Tang Muzhi's empathy is similar to these in principle, but the effect of his use is much more powerful, the most basic of which is to make the two people in the same state of mind, Tang Muzhi's realm of nothingness and nothingness just hit the heart of the empathized person in a flood-like attitude, and even the person quickly became pure. Rao is Ruan Feng has lived for so many years, and it is the first time he has seen such an outrageous situation.

"It's not wrong for you to sum it up like this, it's the empathy aspect, I'm not sure, and it's impossible to use myself as an experiment to live with you; The moral bottom line depends on the individual, do you want to take Ye Kexin to the snowy mountain to starve her and let me test it again? ”

Tang Muzhi stood up solemnly, he stood up, and said, "If you really have the heart to pass on the Liuku Immortal Thief, then it is to give Kexin a chance to live, but how complicated the steps are?" As long as you don't bother, I'll arrange for her to go to the snowy mountains right away! ”

"Wait! Tang Muzhi, have you forgotten something? Can you make such a hasty decision on this matter? If she hadn't passed the test in that situation and experienced such a toss, would she still be able to live? Ding Daoan spoke out his concerns.

Ruan Feng also interjected at the right time, and he said maliciously: "That's right, Tang Muzhi, who are you Ye Kexin?" It's good to have the heart to help, but is it really justified? If you let this girl realize in the last period of her life that she is a person who can devour her own kind in order to live......"

Tang Muzhi stretched out his hand to interrupt the two of them, and he smiled: "I don't dare to guarantee the outcome of this kind of thing, but I believe that at least she will not regret any decision she makes...... Compared to this, Ruan Feng's senior, are you hesitating whether it is fair for a terminally ill patient with a different psychological state to participate in this kind of test, right? ”

"Hmph, don't you regret it......" Ruan Feng shook his head, "When it really comes to the line of life and death, the mood of ordinary terminally ill patients and ordinary people is similar, this is not a problem." ”

"It's up to you how you arrange it, if you can, I also hope that someone who is truly worthy of the Liuku Immortal Thief will inherit it - especially my fellow countryman."

Ruan Feng paused and said, "By the way, it's not necessary to go to the Snow Mountain, and I don't plan to go back." ”

Tang Muzhi and Ding Daoan glanced at each other, and they didn't know whether this was good or bad for a while.

Ding Daoan was excused by Tang Muzhi to stay with Ruan Feng, and then went back to Chuangpinggou at the foot of Siguniang Mountain alone.

After Tang Muzhi left, Ruan Feng stayed in the house alone, and he remembered the whole story of this incident.

Staying on the snowy mountain before, although it was muddy and half-dead, but the most fundamental line of defense of "cannibalism" was still struggling to support it, and now it's okay, as soon as Tang Muzhi and these people come, they can be regarded as putting this situation that will come sooner or later in front of him in advance.

Originally, the occurrence of this incident would be Ruan Feng's most desperate, but after feeling Tang Muzhi's "quietness", he couldn't get up or down in his heart, and thought about it a lot, but he knew that it would be useless to escape anymore.

Let's go on like this, whether to live or die, to continue to restrain or to be willing to fall...... Always have to face it.

He always talks about whether he is tired of living, but in fact, he is always the most tired person.

……

On the other side, Feng Baobao and Xu Xiang, who had gone down the mountain, were still in Luoqi City.

Previously shocked by the information brought by Ruan Feng and Tang Muzhi's series of things, Xu Xiang simply didn't have more energy to think about other things, and now Feng Baobao was bluffed by Tang Muzhi, firmly believing that as long as she waited for sixteen or seventeen years, her misty life experience would reveal itself.

Xu Xiang still doubted the authenticity of this matter, but now he was extremely grateful to Tang Muzhi, at least for the rest of this time, Feng Baobao was still his Ah Wu, and he was still Feng Baobao's dog. Feng Baobao won't embarrass him like this time again.

He could still live by Feng Baobao, and he finally recovered a little when he thought of the company of Ah Wu for most of the rest of his life, the fatigue at work, and the physical and mental trauma brought to him by this rash action.

Xu Xiang knows his physical condition, he is a half-way monk who refines Qi, although he obtained Qi Sense with the help of Feng Baobao when he was very young, but his physical fitness is still incomparable with those who refine Qi and cultivate wealth.

He was in his fifties when he joined Nadutong, and although the elderly are not easy to overwork, there are many men in history who have only reached the rising stage of their careers at this age. He thought that he, like those people, could have the energy to do his job well and take care of Feng Baobao perfectly.

The temporary worker plan was proposed by Xu Xiang, who was both a beneficiary and a victim. Feng Baobao does some simple work, he can rest assured, as soon as he encounters a dangerous task, he can only do it himself, a large area leader and temporary workers are all on him, he feels that the health in the past two years is obviously not as good as before.

However, the things that should be dealt with still have to be dealt with, and who are the targets of this group of people who suddenly appeared in Kanchenjunga at an inopportune time? A ragged woman of Indian origin survived, and she appeared with the people of the Dumpba, but not inhuman. Under the care of Xu Xiang and Feng Baobao, this woman came to Luoqi alive, Xu Xiang found a translator, and followed the clues provided by the woman, and finally checked the origin of Duiba and the group...... The only thing he cared about was that this person knew Chi Lie.

"Fuck, I see......"

Xu Xiang, who had found out everything, tried his best to crush the Pisces jade pendant, but he soon gave up on this thankless task.

In line with the principle of preferring to kill by mistake and not letting go, and a little bit of caution, he took out his savings and secretly entrusted this matter to Tang Men.

Although Xu Xiang didn't believe Tang Muzhi's words, no matter how powerful he Tang Muzhi was, could he predict the future? But thinking that Tang Muzhi had not shown malice to him and Feng Baobao, coupled with the strong strength shown by Tang Muzhi in this battle, he already knew that Tang Muzhi and even the entire Tang Sect could not be offended, at least explain this matter to others in a different way, which can be regarded as showing a little compromise and honesty.
