In the following days, the bright god who incarnated as an ordinary old man in Chang'an City went in and out of the inn as usual, ate and slept, looked for secluded visits, exploded the stove and drank tea, listened to music and napped, and walked around the forty-seventh lane every day, and then watched Sangsang.

He eats and sleeps to see Sangsang, bursts the stove and drinks tea to see Sangsang, listens to music and naps to see Sangsang, goes to see Sangsang every day, and after hearing the name of the black and thin maid in the old pen house, watching Sangsang has become the most important part of his life.

One day, the old man came to Linforty-seven Lane again with two mentions of the osmanthus cake of the Hibiscus Ji, watching the little maid being picked up by a luxurious royal carriage, he couldn't help but be a little curious and puzzled, but he didn't think much about it, just looked at the old pen with the door closed, and couldn't see Sangsang's busy little body, the old man felt that if there was something missing, if there was a regret, he stood for a long time, and suddenly remembered that he had forgotten the real purpose of coming to Chang'an City.

The old man's eyes no longer have the shadow of that dark night, he doesn't know where that person is hiding in Chang'an City, whether he is still in Chang'an City, these days he has even completely forgotten about this matter.

Standing on the gray wall of Lin47 Lane, he remembered this incident, shook his head, put the osmanthus cake in his hand in front of the old pen shop, tightened the thick cotton jacket that had become a little dirty, and passed through the dense streets and alleys of Dongcheng to a quiet mansion in Nancheng.

At the entrance of the alley stand two large maple trees, their leaves curling weakly in the winter wind, which is really a little cold compared to the proud trees and greenery peeking out of the houses on both sides of the alley.

In the middle of the alley, there were two mansion doors facing each other, and the old man ignored the mansion on his right hand and looked directly at the left hand side. The peeling seal had already been torn clean by the wind for many years, and only some scraps of paper and flying debris were mixed between the peeling and upturned skin of the wooden door, which looked extremely decaying.

The old man stood quietly in front of this dilapidated mansion, with his hands folded and leaning over, looking at the remaining stone lion, looking at the old mud that had accumulated behind the stone lion's base, and a touch of inexplicable affection appeared in his deep-set eyes.

The old man stood for a long time, until a winter wind came through the alley, and penetrated through the collar of his thick padded jacket, causing him to cough a few times, and his body was lowered.

There was also a sound that swept along with the winter wind.

"This year's winter in Chang'an City is much colder than before. ”

The old man still bent over and replied, "I haven't been to Chang'an City for many years, so I don't know what the winter in Chang'an City was like before. ......

Then he turned to look at the alleyway.

A person walked slowly from the mouth of the alley, his eyebrows were straight like a ruler, his eyes were bright like a spring cotton robe, a simple bun, a long sword behind his back, and a pair of straw sandals under his spleen.

It is Li Qingshan, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty.

"In the years to come, you can stay in Chang'an City, and maybe you will have a deeper understanding of the winter here. ”

Li Qingshan stopped and looked at the old man and said such a sentence, expressing the meaning of staying as a guest.

If it is a real guest, Datang will naturally have good tea and good wine to entertain, if it is a bad guest who is not clear and has a grudge over the years, the so-called guest naturally represents other Yini

The old man looked at him quietly, slowly straightened up his slender body, and with a simple waist movement, he suddenly became tall and mighty, and a solemn and powerful feeling of wisdom erupted.

In the face of the Tang Dynasty National Teacher, the old man is naturally no longer the ordinary old man who drinks tea, eats and watches Sangsang.

He is the Great Priest of Light.

The leader of the South Gate of Haotian Dao, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, almost all the imaginations of the people in the world about power can be given to Li Qingshan's body, and no one has ever seen him perform his magical realm over the years, because with his current transcendent status, there is really nothing that he needs to do personally.

But even the naughty boys playing in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City know that the national teacher is naturally very powerful, otherwise why could he become a national teacher? And for people in the cultivation world, Li Qingshan, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, as a great master of the realm of knowing fate, will not make a move, and once he makes a move, he will definitely be shocked.

However, the old man in front of the decaying general's mansion is not an ordinary person, as the most respected and noble bright priest of the Xiling Temple, he has been imprisoned for fourteen years, and still has countless loyal subordinates.

The Great Tang National Teacher is facing the Great Divine Officer of Light, and he doesn't know what the outcome will be.

"Xiling wrote a letter, saying that you are very strong, and Senior Brother also said that you are very strong, and even said that you may be stronger than the master. ”

Li Qingshan looked at the Great Priest of Light, suddenly smiled, and said: "I know that because I am concerned about mundane affairs, my Dao heart cannot remain quiet, so I have always had some regrets in the realm, so if you are really stronger than me, I don't think this is a difficult thing to accept, let alone a shame." ”

The Great Priest of Light said: "After many years of cultivation, if you can't even understand this point, you will inevitably be a little dull. ”

"So I can't see through you. ...... Li Qingshan smiled and said: "You are different people from the two gods of the Heavenly Decree, back then, senior brother and I never saw a trace of ambition for power in you, and even you didn't seem to have much interest in the spread of Haotian brilliance in the world, you studied the canon hard, you helped the suffering, you were merciful but not compassionate, you were indifferent but not indifferent, you were a person who was almost completely transparent or bright." ”

Li Qingshan's voice gradually became cold: "So I don't understand, why did you suddenly become such a person back then, you would do such a thing, become the first imprisoned Great Priest of Light in the Temple, I don't understand why you came to Chang'an City after you got out of trouble, what do you want to do?"

"Everything and law in the world are all destined by Haotian, and our position in the world has long been predestined. I am on the throne of light, and my mission is to see that darkness is nothing more......"

After a slight pause, the Great Priest of Light looked up at the messy sky behind the chaotic branches above the courtyard wall, and a compassionate smile appeared on his face and continued: "If everyone knew their position and mission, then everything in the world would be much simpler, when I saw the darkness, it was supposed to be purified by the judgment, but no one was willing to complete their mission, so I had to do more. ”

He retracted his gaze, looked at Li Qingshan and said, "Whether you look at it or not, the darkness is always there, but since I saw it, I really can't treat it as if I didn't see it." ”

Li Qingshan shook his head and said: "If everything in the world and the law are destined by Haotian, then why do we still have to practice and seek? The darkness has its own Haotian purification there, and it is good for you to complete your mission in your own position, so why do you have to do these things? If you can really know your position and mission, you should still be a great priest of light who sits on the throne of God and is worshiped by all the people, how can you become a lost dog that everyone wants to kill?"

The Great Priest of Light was silent.

Li Qingshan looked at his old face and thought of the loving old man who had painstakingly studied the canon in the remote residence of the temple many years ago, and his heart gave birth to a complex feeling of sympathy and disgust, and said with emotion: "The previous Great Priests of Bright are all people who have studied the teachings in the Dao Sect and are incomparably intelligent, but I don't know why, the Great Priest of Bright is the person who is the most prone to problems, the better the better, the more so, the one who entered the wasteland to preach more than a thousand years ago is the one who disappeared in the South China Sea six hundred years ago, and you are the same, why is this so?" I often wonder if you people with great wisdom and perseverance have great self-confidence, so you insist that what you see is the real and the only truth, so that you can go further and further away from the real world?"

Listening to these sincere words, the Great Priest of Light seemed to have some emotion after being silent for a long time, but after a while, his expression became calm and indifferent, and said: "Seeing is seeing, what you see in the eyes of light is where the objectivity of the world is, and falsehood is also true. ”

Hearing him say this, Li Qingshan couldn't help but be slightly angry, and reprimanded in a deep voice: "But except for you, no one will think so! Fourteen years ago, you pretended to pass on the edict of the head of the sect and let Li Peiyan and Xia Hou do this, Your Majesty was furious, and the head of the sect was equally angry, if you were not the enemy of the whole world, how could the world regard you as an enemy? How could Your Majesty and the head of the sect think that you deserve to die at the same time? How could you be locked up for so many years if you are so virtuous and respected!"

The Great Priest of Light said, "I have not falsely passed on the edict of the first seat. ”

Li Qingshan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "You mean that the master sect will use you as a scapegoat?"

The Great Priest of Light's tone became calmer and calmer, and said, "Who has the guts to make me a scapegoat?"

Li Qingshan was silent for a moment and then said, "But this matter was done by you after all. ”

"Not bad. ”

"You haven't considered the idea of Majesty and the Sect Master?"

"What does Emperor Tang and Shouzao's thoughts have to do with me?"

The voice of the Great Priest of Light was as calm as the surface of a frozen lake in winter, smooth and without waves, as if the disaster that shocked the Tang Empire and the Xiling Temple that he caused back then was nothing more than some ordinary planing.

Li Qingshan looked at him with a slight cold look in his eyes and asked, "After getting out of trouble, you came to Chang'an, could it be that you haven't let go of that matter yet?"

The Great Priest of Light was silent.

Li Qingshan turned his head to look at the dilapidated General's Mansion, and sighed: "Just because of your words back then, so many innocent people have died in Chang'an City, and this General's Mansion has fallen into decay thanks to you, so you are still dissatisfied with the ......."

The Great Priest of Light said expressionlessly, "Not satisfied. ......

Li Qingshan pointed to the General's Mansion and reprimanded sharply: "The people in the General's Mansion are all dead, what are you not satisfied with!"

The Great Priest of Light shook his head and said, "No, there is one more who is not dead. ”

Li Qingshan's pupils shrank, and he was shocked.

"Back then, both the Divine Temple and the princes and generals of your Tang Kingdom agreed to cooperate with my gaze, because no one wanted to see the son of Hades descend into the world. However, for some reason, everyone thought what I was seeing was fake. Your prince thinks that he has been bewitched by me, and your emperor is very angry, so that some people know that there is still a person alive in this general's palace, but they are no longer willing to investigate it, and they are even forbidden to talk about it. ”

"Why am I imprisoned for fourteen years? Because I know that the Son of Hades is still in this world, and he is getting stronger and stronger, and I will continue to look for him, and those people do not believe in the existence of the Son of Hades at all, nor do they believe in his existence, if I continue to investigate, there will be a big problem between Xiling and Tang. ......

"Then some people had to lock me up. ”

He said softly with compassion: "Momoyama, Tang Kingdom, the whole world is rotten. ”

"It's not that I'm going to be the enemy of the whole world, it's that the whole world is going to be the companion of the night, to the light. ”

"I am the Great Priest of Light. ”

"My name is Wei Guangming. ......

"Then the whole world is my enemy.
