Chapter 67: Brother, give me another chance

"This is the last level, you go in, Han Nian will be waiting for you at the exit."

Ji Zhaoyang pointed to the door.

"This level is called 'Dao', what is the test? Are there any requirements? Ye Feng asked rhetorically.

After all, this level is different from "luck" and "wisdom", and the core of the exam can be judged by one word, and the word "Tao" has no standard meaning, and has infinite meaning.

"There are no requirements for this level, everything is as you like, as long as you respect what you want in your heart, go ahead, good luck."

Ye Feng nodded, and respectfully bowed goodbye to Ji Zhaoyang: "Thank you, Lord Ji." ”

Ji Zhaoyang nodded, didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.

Looking at his back, Ye Feng took a deep breath and tried to relax.

"The cloud has no heart, it moves with its heart, and the wind has no intention, it walks at will."

Ye Feng muttered, put down all the distractions in his heart, turned around and walked into the door.

Compared to the rooms in the previous levels, the room in front of me is much larger and cleaner. There was an indescribable solemnity everywhere, and there was a faint smell of incense in the air.

Walking forward, he saw a huge humanoid sculpture, this person was wearing a red robe, a red tasseled hood, a cuirass, a heart guard, a waist skirt, a beast's head and a shawl on his shoulders, silver armor on his sleeves, a sword in both hands, looking ahead, and not angry and arrogant.

Judging by the outfit, it should be a general. The statue is placed in the center C position, like a Buddha statue in a temple.

On either side of the general, there is also a row of sculptures, but in comparison, both in color and size, they are inferior.

These statues are Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes and holding dust, scholars wearing Confucian robes and holding classics, and white robes wearing long coats holding machinery, and monks wearing robes and twisting Buddhist beads.

Although there are no names or introductions in front of each sculpture, it is clear from the appearance.

The general in the middle C position represents the most respected martial arts system in Yangning Kingdom, and the two sides are Daomen, Junqian, Shenjimen and Buddhism.

These are the cultivation systems of Yangning Kingdom, which can be said to be the contemporary "Hundred Schools of Thought".

Each of the five statues has a table in front of it, but there is no incense burner, no flowers, and no offerings.

But in front of the table, there is a futon in each case, which is supposed to be used for people to bow down.

Standing in the middle and looking around, although Ye Feng was calm, his heart was a little excited.

Worshipping the Buddha, worshipping the Tao, and worshiping the saints are all normal things in the modern society before the crossing, and Ye Feng often goes in and out of temples and Taoist temples.

But at this moment, the appearance of saints from various sects in a room made Ye Feng's heart feel extremely disobedient and resistant.

Do you want to worship? Who to worship?

There is no distinction between high and low sects, so who to worship first? Who's back?

Ye Feng's heart suddenly became a mess, and all kinds of voices poured into his head, making him fidget, almost crazy.

He just wanted to get out of this place now.

Looking around again, Ye Feng suddenly saw a clerk in the corner wearing a silver-black nine-star division uniform, holding a brush in one hand and a notebook in the other, looking at him expressionlessly.

Judging from the state he kept recording in the notebook, he should be an examiner. Behind him, there is a staircase.

And the moment Ye Feng saw the silver-black Nine Star Division's uniform, he suddenly understood.

What is this place? This is the Phantom Star Pavilion, the headquarters of the Nine Star Division, and although the saints representing various sects are enshrined in this room, the Nine Star Division represents the imperial power.

In this feudal society, if you want to worship, you can only worship the emperor.

After making up his mind, all kinds of thoughts in his heart also precipitated.

Ye Feng took a step, walked towards the stairs without squinting, and without looking back.

The examiner glanced at him, holding the pen and bowing his head to write something in the notebook.

The staircase is a bit narrow, only allowing two people to walk side by side at a time, and above the staircase, it is dark.

Such an environment couldn't help but remind Ye Feng of the straight ladder from Qiuyue Tower to the pavilion.

Could it be that there is a hole above this staircase?

Walking to the second floor, it was an identical room, except that the five statues had become one.

The statue is also placed in the C position, wearing a silver-black nine-star division uniform, with a short cloak hanging on the back, and a dragon bird knife symbolizing imperial power at the waist.

Sure enough, the first floor is dedicated to the saints of various genres, and the second floor is dedicated to the Nine Star Division.

Ye Feng stood still, and was about to bow his hand, when he suddenly found a nine-star clerk standing in the corner, and there was still a staircase behind him that didn't know where to go.

It is exactly the same configuration as the first floor.

It seems that above the stairs, there should be something.

If you think about it carefully, I am afraid that the only one who can be above the Nine Star Division is the imperial power.

Putting away the idea of bowing, he resolutely stepped up the stairs under the gaze of the officials.

The three layers, exactly the same configuration, are dedicated to a man wearing a dragon robe, with a sword at his waist, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and from head to toe there is an indescribable imperial momentum.

No need to ask, this must be a certain emperor of Yangning Kingdom, and it is very likely to be the founding king.

This time I should worship.

But when Ye Feng walked in front of the emperor sculpture, a strong antipathy suddenly surged in his heart.

Is the feudal emperor of a feudal empire worth worshipping himself?

At this moment, Ye Feng had an epiphany about the true meaning of "Dao".

Everyone has a different understanding of the Tao, but in the final analysis, it is the belief in everyone's heart.

Worship the gods and Buddhas, or respect the Tao, or worship the sages, or respect the monarch, everyone has their own rules.

Before coming in, the gold medal Ji Zhaoyang told himself that there were no requirements for this level, everything was as you like, and you had to respect your inner thoughts.

Ye Feng glanced up at the statue, then looked around, and sure enough, he saw a nine-star clerk in the corner, as well as a staircase behind him.

Above the emperor, what else will be?

Ye Feng took a step forward and walked directly towards the stairs. On this level, he stayed even shorter than the previous two.

Walking up the stairs again, it was still a similar room, except that there were no statues here.

Just when Ye Feng was puzzled, a familiar voice came from behind.

"How? Who did you worship along the way? ”

Looking back, it was Han Nian.

"Huh?!"

Ye Feng was stunned, because when he saw Han Nian, it meant that he had left the examination room of the "Dao".

The emperor is the last layer? I'm out?!

Depend on! I didn't worship anyone......

Besides, this is an empty feudal society, even if Ji Zhaoyang lets himself follow his heart, he can't be so realistic.

Even if you don't worship various schools and the Nine Star Division, why do you have to worship the emperor, and you have to pretend to be it......

After finishing the calf, he didn't worship the Buddha, didn't worship the Tao, didn't worship the saints, didn't worship the Nine Star Division, and didn't worship the emperor.

Isn't this a fatherless and kingless person?!

In this era, it is a great sin to have no father and no king......

This level is obviously unqualified, plus the first level of "luck", you can skip it directly if you are smart, and you should be able to get a high score in the second level of "wisdom......

Even if it is balanced like this, the final result is still a failure, and I am seriously biased!

It's over, I just entered the Nine Star Division, and I didn't leave a good impression, and in the future, I can only crawl at the bottom as Lin Xiyao said......

"Brother, give me another chance...... I thank you for your family ......."
