In ancient times, Confucianism said that "human nature is inherently good", and believed that the main reason why people are human beings, not animals and birds, is because of "human nature", and human nature is fundamentally benevolent, righteous, courteous, wise, and faithful.

Some people think that "human nature is inherently good," and naturally some people think that "human nature is inherently evil." Those benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith are good things, but why don't you say anything bad? Why are there no saints everywhere? The root cause is that there is great evil in the root of "human nature."

Since there is great evil in human nature, then some means are needed to suppress the "evil" in these human natures, and they cannot be interfered with by human nature. This means is the law.

The law is strict, and it is like the heavenly net that is restored and not leaked, but there are also some great evildoers who are lucky and regard it as a joke, such as the group of people in the courtyard.

"Hey, today's harvest is not very good, from the morning busy to the dark only caught a sheep, the sheep buyer still thinks I want a high price, I was angry but fell on the spot for him, this is not, empty-handed!"

A black-faced man was wearing a shabby cotton jacket, and the dirty cotton wool was half exposed from the crack in the patch, and he bit the chicken leg on his hand fiercely and said: "I have to climb over the wall and cross the yard to catch a sheep, and I have to look at those with good family backgrounds, otherwise this sheep is not fresh enough and cannot be sold at a good price." And if I accidentally make some movement, I won't be killed if someone finds out? And today, somehow, the city garrison and the government army are running around, and I have no choice but to follow and hide in Tibet. But I only asked him for five taels of silver after so much effort, and he even thought I wanted more!

"Hehe, it's not a problem that you want to get the price, the question is how did you drop the sheep to death? Why don't you stay and offer it to Tempura-sama? Could it be that you forgot that Tempura-sama will come over to inspect tonight?" the monkey man sneered as he craned his shoulders and snorted with a mouthful of yellow teeth.

A long-faced man dressed in a coarse cloth robe twisted his orchid fingers also came to join in the fun: "Do you know why you have paid so little money and often fail to complete your tasks, but you can still keep you in the Holy Sect? Isn't it because Tempura-sama loves to eat two-legged sheep, so you please her the most? Are you afraid that you have forgotten this?"

The black-faced man knew that the two of them were deliberately squeezing him with words, but he had to admit that what they said was true, and his face turned blue with fright: "Big brother, save me, and when Lord Tempura comes, I hope you will say a few kind words, and the little brother will have a good reward one day!"

The monkey man and the long-faced man talked and talked well, but they didn't answer at all, and the anxious black-faced man scratched his ears and cheeks.

At this time, a big man with a steel beard stood up and said to the black-faced man: "Don't bother with this monkey and the white snake, go, go to Grandpa Yan and I to play a girl, and then lend you a hundred taels of silver, and I will plead with Lord Tempura for you when I turn around." Although Tempura-sama says that she likes to eat two-legged sheep, but at this time, the Holy Sect is planning to grow and is short of manpower, if you can hand over these hundred taels of silver to your lord to prove that you are not useless, then she will definitely not blame you!"

The black-faced man was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed, "Thank you, Fifth Master Yan!" got up and left with Yan Lao Wu and his men, and didn't forget to glare at a few people in the courtyard before going out.

The monkey trickster hated: "Damn Yan Lao Wu!" I have long seen that the black-faced man is not pleasing to the eye, and he has no ability, so he only relies on flattery to compete for favor.

The long-faced man nicknamed "White Flower Snake" said: "This Yan Lao Wu is a good drug, and his subordinates are clever, and he often stuns a chick and then sells it after playing enough, and it is worth the harvest of you and me for half a month, and it is deeply loved by Lord Tempura, we can't compare!"

The monkey man said angrily: "I'm just fine, I can only play a fake monkey to cheat the reward, at most I can be lucky enough to let it steal two more money bags." Where can you compare to your brother, you are well hidden, you and the beggar boss are cut off, and you have a lot of dividends, right? I estimate that it is much more than that Yan Lao Wu. ”

"Hahaha... Brother said and laughed, who are you and me? With my brother here, how can I let you only drink soup and not eat meat? Besides, didn't you also accept two today? I knew at a glance that those two were stunning beauties, especially one of them, although he was wearing men's clothes, he seemed to be even better looking than a saint, if it weren't for my brother, I would have liked to buy it directly with my brother and try it!" The long-faced man's laughter was also feminine and soft, patting the monkey man's thigh and said.

The monkey man picked up a scarlet cloak from his side, sniffed it on his nose, and looked intoxicated, and he didn't care about the long-faced man's hand that moved at the base of his thigh, and said with a smile: "What my brother said is very true, if it weren't for the good ancient jade earrings to please the Holy Maiden, so that our brother's cultivation could be improved to another level, I almost couldn't bear this kind of beauty, I'm afraid that the price will not be high after satisfying my hunger." Don't say it, the more I talk about it, the more itchy and uncomfortable I feel, come on, let's keep drinking!" beckoned the long-faced man and his men to sit down again around the campfire.

At this time, there were only seven or eight people left in the courtyard, not counting monkey men and long-faced men, but their interest in drinking was much higher than just now, so the fire was heavy, the figures flickered, and the sound of pushing the cup and changing the lamp reappeared.

But they didn't notice that in the broken window behind them, three pairs of eyes were staring at them viciously through the dilapidated bast paper.

In the house, Hua Ning, Hongying, and the monkeys quietly gathered on the edge of the window, and if they knew the wonderful pupil technique in the Xuanmen, they would have to burn them one by one.

Although I don't understand what is harvesting and cutting, and what is a two-legged sheep, I can think of that Yan Lao Wu mutilated women, and the monkey man made a good person into a fake monkey, presumably a black-faced man and a long-faced man are not a good thing, they are both heinous.

Hua Ning grew up in Qinghua Palace since she was a child, and the only experience she had when she went out was the few days she spent in Qingyu City, as for the time when she saw the old blind man, it didn't count, after all, it was only a few steps away from the palace wall. She had never imagined that she would encounter such a terrifying thing, thinking of the content of their conversation, I don't know how many innocent people had been killed, and for a moment anger burned in her heart, and for the first time in her life, she had the idea of killing.

What she didn't know was that when she had just had the idea of killing, in the Qinghua Palace, far away from here, her pair of snow-white short swords that had been temporarily sealed by her sister with the power of the Qinghua Lotus Lantern to leak her breath suddenly jumped up, flying up and down in the magic circle, hitting the cyan brilliance of the lower magic circle from time to time, causing ripples.

"Miss, someone is coming!" Hongying's hand holding Hua Ning trembled.

Hua Ning looked at it, if someone really took advantage of the wine, staggering, and leaning over, who else was not the monkey man?

When the monkey saw him coming, he was so frightened that he hid behind the two of them, not daring to take another look.

"Bang", the door was kicked open, the monkey man walked in with the door frame, and saw Hua Ning and Hongying standing in the room, and most of the wine woke up: "Why did you wake up? Who untied it for you?"

The monkey man has a lot of means to train the monkey, and he has a lot of power on weekdays, and he shouted loudly, so scared that the monkey's legs were weak, and he really rolled out from behind the second girl.

"Okay, Lao Tzu is delicious and delicious for you, but you are good, but you eat inside and out?" The monkey was very popular, and he touched his hand to his waist, only to remember that the whip was left outside the house when he was drinking, and he casually pulled out the latch from behind the door and hit the monkey.

The monkey didn't dare to move at all, and was beaten by the monkey trickster and screamed, but the monkey's tongue seemed to be only half cut, and it could only utter the words "ah, ah".

"Stop!" Hua Ning really couldn't see that the monkey had been beaten, and couldn't help but scold.

The monkey man heard Hua Ning's angry reprimand, and really stopped, but at this time, he was angry, and when he saw Hua Ning's pretty face when he was half drunk and half awake, he couldn't help but have evil thoughts in his heart, and wanted to turn his anger to Hua Ning: "Hehe, I can stop him, but I can't help but do it to you, it's a big deal that Lao Tzu sells less silver!" After speaking, he grabbed Hua Ning with one hand.

"Miss!" Hongying saw that the monkey trickster wanted to do something wrong, and pushed Hua Ning away.

The monkey trickster saw that he had caught a void, and he was extremely angry, and kicked at the red tassel: "You get out of the way!"

"Ahh

"Ying'er!" Hua Ning's eyes turned red instantly, to say that the person who accompanies her the most is not her sister who dotes on her but is busy, nor is it her sweetheart Luo Buyi, but this personal maid who accompanies her day and night, is regarded by her as a sister!

The monkey man saw Hua Ning crying, but he couldn't help but think in his heart, sure enough, it was pear blossoms with rain, I felt sorry for her, and I wanted to get her even more at the moment.

When the other people in the courtyard heard this, they helped each other to the front of the house, and when they saw the situation in the house, the long-faced man laughed and said, "Brother, you show us your hands, and we can learn new tricks." After speaking, he pinched the buttocks of the man next to him, and the person who pinched it screamed in pain, but he threw a flattering look at the long-faced man.

Seeing them gathered in front of the house, the monkey trickster knew that they were not interested in this, so he also responded: "Then I will show my hands, you can see!" After speaking, he grabbed Hua Ning again.

Hua Ning saw that the monkey man's palm was like thick bark, but his nails were an inch long, so he hurriedly retreated backwards and narrowly avoided it.

In the end, the monkey man has a bit of cultivation, he is quite familiar with the number of moves, and he is not in a hurry, he grabs the east and hugs the west, and slowly forces Hua Ning into the corner.

"Beauty, I see where you can hide!haha..."

With her back against the wall, Hua Ning knew that there was no way to avoid it, this time she really regretted coming out to find the old blind man, thinking about her sister, thinking about Luo Buyi, Hua Ning burst into tears.

It would be good if I also had cultivation in my body, whether it was martial arts or Taoism, in short, I couldn't be as weak as this and let others bully me.

Hua Ning stared at the monkey trickster, if this person dared to move again, he would bite his tongue and kill himself!

If only there was a sword, at such a close distance, a sword would surely stab the monkey trickster to death.

Suddenly, two sword sounds seemed to sound in his ears.

I do have a sword, or a pair, a white short sword born with Luo Buyi's black sword. Thinking of Luo Buyi, Hua Ning had a poignant smile on her face.

Luo Buyi, you want to avenge me!

Hua Ning's mind changed in an instant, and at this time he already had the will to die.

Seeing that Hua Ning seemed to have given up resistance, the monkey man was overjoyed, but he was so blessed, and he was about to grab her arm, but he was suddenly so frightened that he fell backwards again and again, tripped over debris and fell to the ground.

"What, what?!" pointed at Hua Ning in horror.

The long-faced man who was about to make fun of the monkey man looked at his hand, but he was also stunned, and the hand kneading the buttocks of the person next to him stopped unconsciously.

I saw that in the corner of the wall, Hua Ning's previous grief and indignation face became expressionless, and the big eyes that were about to overflow with spiritual rhyme were snow-white at this time, and even the pupils disappeared, and a chill came to Senran's face.

In the Qinghua Palace, the sound of sword chanting in the highest Hua Ning dormitory became louder and louder, and when the attendants were about to investigate, two Bai Lian broke out of the window, dragging their long tail feathers like a pair of Luan birds, heading towards the northwest, sprinkling the brilliance like snowflakes falling down.

"Hey, it's snowing!" said a waiter.

Someone reached out to pick it up and said, "It's really snow!"

Then I felt that it was wrong, the moon was still there tomorrow, and the stars were bright?

The two clan elders who were alarmed, Hua Wangyun and Hua Zhiming, had just arrived, although they were also amazed at the beautiful scene in front of them, but what they wanted to know more was what made such a big movement in the second lady's bedroom, whether it was related to the departure of the young lady.

I asked around but didn't get the news I wanted, so I had no choice but to leave, and I muttered in my mouth that Miss should come back soon, Miss should come back soon......

Wang Quan led the five government soldiers to investigate a lot of abandoned houses and abandoned courtyards, and he was relieved that he had not found that anyone had been kidnapped unluckily, and only encountered a pair of wild mandarin ducks fighting around the bonfire, which also meant that he would not be implicated because of the crow's mouth.

No, the opinion of exploring remote places was made by yourself, if you don't find the person the government is looking for, but you miss the target because of your whim, then you still have to be implicated?

The earthworm official who finally figured it out had tears in his heart, and he had heard from his predecessors that officialdom was not good and that there were pitfalls everywhere. But no, I can't enter, I can't retreat, I will fall into the pit no matter what, my predecessors don't deceive me!

While lamenting that his career was not going well, Wang Quan led the way, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a white bird in the air, no, it was two! The two white birds hugged each other up and down, and fell towards the northwest, and the direction where he and the others were located was the northeast of the outer city, and the two places were far away from each other.

"My lord, this is..."Wang Quan thought that he had little knowledge, and hurriedly asked the government army for advice on such bizarre things.

The one-armed army frowned deeply, and without saying a word, he grabbed Wang Quan's collar and flew towards the place where the white bird fell, and Wang Quan screamed in shock.

Seeing this, the remaining four government soldiers also hurriedly raised their spears and followed.

On a small road in the northwest of the outer city, Zhang Xiaolu helped the old blind man to walk in a hurry.

"Hey, I really shouldn't have drunk that half pot of wine, I didn't think that I slept until now, greedy for a cup of mischief, greedy for a mischief!" The old blind man sighed repeatedly, will he be beaten up when he sees that kid in the future? After all, he almost forgot to save his sweetheart.

Zhang Xiaolu looked at the gourd rattling on his waist and blamed himself a little. This gourd was given by a wine seller, and he gave ten copper plates when he bought the wine. I wanted to let the old blind man who was drunk and drunk all day long to relieve his hunger, but I didn't expect the old blind man to have important things to do.

As if sensing Zhang Xiaolu's depressed mood, the old blind man patted Zhang Xiaolu's small hands holding his arm, and said: "It's all to blame on the old blind man, I haven't mentioned it to you, and I also blame myself for being greedy, it's okay, it's not too late!"

He motioned for Zhang Xiaolu to stop, pinched the fingers of his right hand again and again, and then pointed to the direction of his left hand and asked, "Is there a ruined courtyard here?"

Zhang Xiaolu looked in the direction of the old blind man's finger, and sure enough, there was a house on the wasteland on the left side of the path, and there was a faint fire in the yard, it should be someone.

"Hmm!" Zhang Xiaolu has always known that the old blind man is very accurate in everything, and this time is no exception.

Sensing the pride in Zhang Xiaolu's tone, the old blind man smiled, this kid is not your own right, what are you happy about?

"Let's go, take me to the corner on the left behind the main house in this courtyard. The old blind man instructed.

Although Zhang Xiaolu didn't know what the old blind man's serious affairs had to do with the corners of other people's walls, he still obediently led the old blind man over.

The old blind man leaned on the corner of the wall, slowly groping for the bricks on the wall, and said something in his mouth: "The longitudinal west longitude, the door is open in eight winds." This house sits on the north and faces south, which is the northeast corner. Reverse the eight gates, and the birth gate should be in... One... Two...... Seven, this is it!"

He beckoned Zhang Xiaolu over and said, "Good boy, you kick this brick hard, come, don't be afraid, the old blind man won't harm you!"

Zhang Xiaolu stepped forward and touched the cold, hard bricks, looked at the old blind man, and pulled his arm suspiciously, sure to kick, kick the bricks?

"Yes, just kick the bricks, don't be afraid, you have a great benefit!" The old blind man can always easily know Zhang Xiaolu's thoughts, which has to be said to be a strange thing.

"Shhhh It's a cold breath, it can't be ......" The old blind man looked up at the night sky.

Zhang Xiaolu didn't understand what the old blind man was doing when he looked at the night sky, he obviously couldn't see anything, and what kind of cold breath was there? Is the old blind man cold? It seems that tomorrow he will have to find a way to ask for another cotton coat for the old blind man.

Zhang Xiaolu followed the example of an old blind man and looked at the night sky. It was his little secret, and he liked to learn his movements behind the old blind man, and then secretly laugh, even if not at all.

However, today, Zhang Xiaolu saw a gorgeous scene that he would never forget in his short life.

Two ice-like phoenix birds flew cross-necked, crossed the vast starry sky, covered the silver-white moon disk, the brilliance was like dust and mist, and it fell violently, stirring up the ice and snow in the sky, the lotus blossom bloomed in the ice and snow, and on the lotus flower, a pair of white short swords frolicked and frolicked, and the sword qi was unparalleled.
