Chapter 111: Inquiry
Wang Lin looked at Xuanhua Niangniang and seemed to understand what Xuanhua Niangniang wanted to ask.
At this time, Xuanhua Niangniang asked: "The cause of everything comes from you, and all the results also come from you." Do you regret letting Fei Yu embark on the path of cultivation? β
Wang Lin shook his head: "I don't regret it!" β
"Do you regret killing those soldiers who tortured the children?"
"I don't regret it!"
"Do you regret saving the old village chief who blamed you in turn?"
"I don't regret it!"
Three inquiries, three no regrets.
Xuanhua Niangniang continued: "The cause is you, the result is you, why don't you regret it?" β
"The cause is mine, the result is me, but the process is not mine. At that moment, I saved their lives and avenged the mother for killing her son, which is a good cause. I gave them the exercises so that they could ascend to the heavenly realm, and this is the result of good results. β
However, this is a good cause that belongs only to me, a good effect that belongs to me. Every choice made by each individual is like being on a mountain full of clouds. One wrong step is a catastrophe. If the old village chief, after I had killed the soldier who had killed the child, had taken the whole village with him, perhaps they would have survived well. β
Therefore, between people, there are different causes and effects intermingled. Perhaps, in the eyes of the old village chief, what I did, he couldn't accept. But for me to watch a child die in front of me and I ignore it, it's not in line with my Dao heart. β
Therefore, everything has cause and effect, and everyone can only achieve good results when they are worthy of their own hearts. At the end of the day, it's not my fault at this point. β
Xuanhua Niangniang nodded: "You have a heart and mouth for your words and deeds, and you have no regrets or deeds, which is very good." β
Obviously, Wang Lin's answer was satisfactory to Xuanhua Niangniang.
For a strong man who was in charge of the behemoth that controlled almost the entire Heavenly Realm back then, kindness can only be a tool, a means, a means to make oneself worthy of one's heart, and at the same time to help others.
But if the other party does not get the desired ending because of this, he suspects that his means are not suitable, and his kindness is not used in the right place, it will only put him in a state of struggle. On the contrary, for those who are hungry for help, it will not do you the slightest good.
Therefore, kindness cannot be subjective, it can only be completely fair and just, follow one's own heart, and so on.
Xuanhua Niangniang understood what Wang Lin meant, and also understood that in the matter of good and evil cause and effect, Wang Lin did not make a mistake.
Immediately, the water mirror in front of him resurfaced a second person. The appearance of this second person was also something that Wang Lin didn't expect, because it was none other than Bai Xiaojun!
Wang Lin couldn't help but look at Xuanhua Niangniang in amazement, as if he didn't understand what problems could exist between himself and Bai Xiaojun.
This time, Shui Jing didn't take him into a so-called consciousness space, Xuanhua Niangniang just stood there, and immediately asked, "Bai Xiaojun, who are you?" β
Wang Lin replied without thinking: "Naturally, I am a friend." β
"Oh? However, Bai Xiaojun is a member of the Bai family, isn't he? β
Wang Lin didn't understand what Xuanhua Niangniang meant, and showed a hint of doubt.
Xuanhua Niangniang continued: "The Bai family where Bai Xiaojun is located is the only one among the seven major families in your Donglei County who started as a businessman. In fact, the Bai family has always been the richest and most resourceful family among the seven families because it is mainly engaged in business and has no competitiveness. But precisely, every family seems to have some estrangement and alienation from the Bai family, have you ever wondered why? β
Wang Lin was silent for a moment, and then said: "Business has business, in the final analysis, the Bai family was able to become a cultivation family back then, and there was a certain amount of accident in itself. The ancestor of the Bai family, if he becomes an official, if he becomes a wealthy man, there is actually no problem at all. However, they chose the most difficult method. β
"A cultivator's need for resources is greater than wealth, and the need for resources is greater than money. However, the Bai family is not such a starting point. In addition, although businessmen pay attention to integrity, they are still businessmen in their style of doing things, and they like to exchange benefits for benefits. This does not match the core meaning of alliances and contracts between many families. β
Therefore, the Bai family is fundamentally unable to be trusted by other families. Because they will be worried that as long as other families give the Bai family greater benefits, the Bai family will turn to cooperate with the other party. β
Xuanhua Niangniang nodded: "Then, in the Heavenly Realm, any organization and force formed by the Chamber of Commerce, have you ever seen the real peak?" β
Wang Lin shook his head: "Whether it is the Holy Dynasty generation I am in, or the previous generation, there is none. β
"That's right, because of the heart of a businessman, there are very strong limitations." Xuanhua Niangniang continued: "Bai Xiaojun, even if you are your childhood sweetheart, the two of you have also played since childhood. However, do you know that Bai Xiaojun was the first to approach you because of the Bai family's instructions. β
Wang Lin was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xuanhua Niangniang in confusion: "Why does Niangniang know?" β
As soon as these words came out, Wang Lin felt that he was a little stupid in asking. It was precisely because he had never reached that peak realm that he had no way to imagine how mysterious Xuanhua Niangniang's methods were.
In his cognition, he and Xuanhua Niangniang met for the first time, but the other party was able to know what happened when he was a child, which was a kind of snooping into cause and effect, this kind of method was unheard of.
But fortunately, Xuanhua Niangniang didn't care, still like a spring breeze and drizzle, showing a kind smile, and then raised her hand, and a picture appeared in the water mirror.
At this time, in the hall, Bai Wuyun, the head of the Bai family, was blessing his grandson, that is, Bai Xiaojun.
"Xiaojun, how do you feel when you see the descendants of the major families today?"
Wang Lin was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered this scene. At that time, he and the others should have been around seven or eight years old, and they were just about to start cultivating. At that time, the seven major families had brought out their younger generations, that is, the grandchildren of the head of the family, to get together.
He even remembered that at that time, only Bai Xiaojun came to the Bai family. And Bai Xiaojun didn't have anyone to talk to him, after all, the Bai family at that time had a relatively weak influence among the seven major families, and Bai Xiaojun seemed to be submissive, and many people were too lazy to take care of him.
At that time, I felt that Bai Xiaojun was standing there alone, a little pitiful, so he took the initiative to say hello, and throughout the party, he took Xiaojun with him all the time, and did not let him be cold.
I don't think about it, Xuanhua Niangniang is pushing back cause and effect, and she can do this job, which is really a bit unbelievable.
At this time, Bai Wuyun was still asking Bai Xiaojun.
Bai Xiaojun's immature voice spoke: "Today...... Today, only Wang Lin took me with him...... He, he's very kind. β
Bai Wuyun sighed, a hint of regret in his eyes.
Immediately, he said: "Xiaojun, although Wang Lin is only the son of the third room of the Wang family, his father is a genius in the second generation of the Wang family!" Therefore, you have to have a good relationship with Wang Lin. One day, if Wang Lin gains a firm foothold in the Wang family, you, as a friend who has followed him since childhood, will naturally be able to get benefits. But these words, can not be told to him, understand? β
Bai Xiaojun didn't seem to understand, but he still nodded.
Wang Lin recalled carefully, it seemed that from that time on, Bai Xiaojun was indeed very close to him. And those who are two ends in three days will come to Wang's house to find themselves.
Originally, Wang Lin thought that Bai Xiaojun really didn't have any playmates, but now it seems that it was because of his grandfather's instructions.
Wang Lin looked at Xuanhua Niangniang and immediately understood what the other party meant.
Xuanhua Niangniang smiled, and then said: "Wang Lin, from your childhood to adulthood, from the stars holding the moon to being spurned by everyone, in the whole process, there are only two people standing behind you. One is your fiancΓ©e Cui Yanhan, and the other is your good friend Bai Xiaojun. β
"But, now you also see that your so-called good friends are with you only because they can get more benefits out of you. He is still befriending you as a businessman. β
"He has invested in you, and investing in this kind of thing, there are naturally ups and downs. But a smart businessman is very good at judging the situation. β
"So when you were down, Bai Xiaojun didn't leave, but stayed with you, which made you feel very warm."
"You have refined the Ten Thousand Treasures Wealth Body for Bai Xiaojun, and you have helped him refine the Tubao Jade Toad, and helped him get the recognition of everyone in the Bai family. At the Linlang banquet, he helped Bai Xiaojun change everyone's opinion of him through mountain and river chess. Each of these pieces is actually just a return on his investment in you. β
Saying that, Xuanhua Niangniang looked at Wang Lin: "For him, the investment in you is already worth it." But what about friendship? Does he really think of you as his good brother from the bottom of his heart? β
