Chapter 157: The Road to Death 12

In fact, since Cao Xihe did not lend a helping hand to the people of the Li family, Xie Tong and Lu Ming have become extremely curious about the Imperial Palace.

Cao Xihe's actions have always been based on the will of the Imperial Palace, and the Imperial Palace will act as they ask their deans to act. To some extent, it can even be said that they do not have their own will, and their appearance represents the will of the Emperor Palace.

Perhaps, they have always understood that being in a high position, every word and deed will be magnified many times, and the result of magnifying many times may be something they can't afford, or they don't want to bear.

Acting according to the will of the temple has become the safest way to do it, whether it is a blessing or a curse, life or death, it has nothing to do with oneself.

As a result of these orientations, you can keep your mind clear and unhindered at all times.

All the ultimate directions can only be one's own practice!

Before Cao Xihe came, the palace had explained to him the two most critical things that needed to be paid attention to this time, and other than that, all the choices were up to him. And for a person who is standing at the peak of cultivation, the best choice is not to have a choice.

Those two things are, first, don't meddle in the opening of Tianmen Town Tianmen too much, and when necessary, don't be enemies of Lindao. The second is to the disciples of the Lindao people, go with their own hearts, and the two do not help each other.

For this first request, even if the palace didn't say it explicitly, he still knew what the reason was, but for the second one, he couldn't guess it a little.

But he still adhered to the idea that more things are better than less, and when the Li family wanted him to help, he chose to turn a blind eye.

Now Lu Ming asked him, why didn't he help the Li family? What he can give is also the most genuine reason in his own heart, "Why should I meddle in something that has nothing to do with me?" ”

This is very straightforward, just like others don't have food, and it's not that I don't have food, what the hell am I doing with that leisure?

The purpose of the Huangji Hall is to integrate the strengths of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and his upheld path at this time sounds somewhat similar to Taoist inaction.

But to Lu Ming's ears, this is actually a branch of Taoism that is somewhat disdained, and it is a noble one. The purpose of the speech of the noble self is, "The ancients did not benefit the world at the slightest loss; Serve the world and don't take it. ”

But the problem is that the first sentence is easy to do, but the second sentence, how many people can do it!

"It's really interesting, it turns out that the dean of the Renhe Academy believes in the noble doctrine of the Taoist school, but I want to ask, can you really do it, and not use the world for your own benefit?" Xie Tong asked rhetorically.

Cao Xihe didn't say much else, he only replied, "Those who are good at governing the outside may not be cured, and the body is suffering; Those who govern well are not necessarily chaotic, but sexual, communicative. If it is extraterritorial, its law can be temporarily applied to a country, but it is not in line with the people's hearts; Under my rule, it can be pushed to the world. ”

Neither of the two Sword Immortals spoke, they were speechless.

It can't be blamed for their ignorance, even if it is Xie Tong, it is only because he has been practicing for a long time that he has heard some about the different branches and cultivation methods of Taoism from others, but he has never learned their methods, or understood them.

Lu Ming is even more so, he has been in exile with Li Yu since he was a child, he has not received any systematic learning, after joining the big sword Qingshan, he is practicing sword day after day, although he is literate, but what he learns is to understand the sword spectrum, as for other ancient books, he has not read them.

Cao Xihe looked at the two of them at a loss, but he didn't feel ashamed, and he was a little helpless, he smiled, "Okay, I'll give you two sword immortals a lecture." Those who are good at managing external things may not be able to govern them, but their bodies and minds are suffering; Those who are good at governing the inner world may not be chaotic in external things, but their own temperament will be at ease. Use your methods to govern external things, which can be temporarily applied in a country, but may not be in line with the people's will; Govern the heart in my own way. But it can be promoted all over the world. In other words, it seems to me that everyone should be self-governing, and not seek from the outside, whether it is seeking things or what they seek, it is not as important as their own practice. If you are satisfied, why should you ask for it? Therefore, I don't help anyone because this is their choice, and since they choose to use this method to achieve their own self-seeking, that is their Fa, and my Fa can only allow me not to touch anything and not cause a single fuss. ”

Xie Tong didn't feel anything after hearing this, after all, he had been practicing for a long time, and there were still many great truths he had heard, which were just a drop in the ocean for him.

But Lu Ming is different, it is the first time he has heard the Taoist theory of noble self, or the more comprehensive Taoist theory of autonomy, so he thinks it is very interesting.

As far as his sword heart is concerned, he also understands it. But this matter can be said to be good or bad, the good thing is that it may make Lu Ming's sword heart more clear, and the bad thing is that it may make Lu Ming's sword heart crack.

Therefore, Xie Tong hurriedly said at this time, "Just listen to it, don't affect your sword heart." ”

With this sentence, Xie Tong used their sword immortal's method of drinking and stopping, in order to make Lu Mingmo fall into a puzzle.

Lu Ming said, "It's okay, I just thought it was very interesting, so I thought about it a little more." ”

Cao Xihe looked at Lu Ming like that, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he said to Lu Ming, "In the future, you can come to the people and courtyards of the Imperial Palace to sit and sit." ”

Lu Ming agreed.

Then, Cao Xihe asked again, "Since you Dajian Qingshan values that kid so much, aren't you worried that he will be taken away immediately after being caught by the Li family?" Aren't you afraid that your plans will come to naught? ”

Lu Ming's plan is indeed very simple, what they think is that instead of looking for it everywhere, it is better to wait for Li Yu to be caught by the Li family and brought back, whether it is an open robbery or a secret robbery, it is okay.

Lu Ming Dynasty Cao Xihe explained, "Since my predecessors pursued the law of self-government, I am not afraid to tell you. Li Yu will not be caught by them, and even if he is still waiting for them to catch him, if we go, maybe it will be an additional variable. Therefore, waiting for work with ease is the greatest we can help at the moment. ”

Cao Xihe asked, "You just believe in him like that?" You know, if you guess wrong, you may lose one of his lives! ”

Lu Ming said, "As a person from the Imperial Palace and the head of the Academy, you should know a little bit about what happened in Hongquan Village seven years ago. Then, you should also know about Li Yu that he was accepted as a disciple by the Lindao people in that place. Since he can be accepted as a disciple by the Lindao people, come to think of it, you should have a basic understanding of Li Yu's personality and what he has done! When Li Yu was not cultivating, he was able to attack them without fear of the gap between cultivators and mortals, and even really did it by him, then, after he came into contact with the world of cultivation, I don't think he would really sit still and wait to be killed. ”

After speaking, he thought of the expression of the little child at the beginning, thin and weak, but flashing with a heart palpitating light, that expression was like a rising giant, poking the sky out of a hole. He said in a very proud tone, "So, I don't think they will really catch him this time, on the contrary, they may suffer another time because of this." ”

After listening to Lu Ming's explanation, Cao Xihe thought for a moment, smiled in his heart, and said, "It's interesting, I suffered a big loss in the hands of the master, and I have to suffer another secret loss in the hands of the apprentice." Their trip to Tianmen Town is really worth it! ”

Li Yu, who was talked about by them, was not as calm and light as they described at this time, no matter how good his mood was, no matter how careful his plan was, he was a twelve-year-old boy, and he had to face the people of the Li family, the people of the five major families in Tianmen Town, and the six major sects trapped in the bureau by him.

Is he really not panicking? No, he was still panicked, so he could only force himself to calm down all the time, because only by being calm enough could he deal with all emergencies and save him and Shen Tang.

Shen Tang on the side felt that Li Yu was actually afraid, she couldn't help anything, so she could only gently hold his hand and said, "Don't worry, Xiaoyu'er, I will always accompany you." All our loved ones will also protect us in heaven. ”

Li Yu glanced at her, nodded heavily, and said with a smile, "Yes, it will be fine." ”

He secretly said to himself in his heart, "Master, please protect us." ”

After saying that, he felt a breeze blowing from nowhere, blowing through his palms and over his head, giving him a sense of reassurance.

The road to death begins now.

The people of the Li family came to the door of Shen Tang's house with everyone under their control, and someone had already told them all about the formation here.

With their current cultivation, there is no way to see any differences, so in the end, it can only fall on Li Xiyan.

When Li Xiyan stepped forward to use the Li family's soul exploration technique to investigate the formation, he also said in his heart, "If you have any other plans, don't keep your hands, otherwise, you may not be able to escape from them!" ”

After some investigation, he said to Li Zhonghong, "The elders of the six major sects are all trapped in it, and the other people who followed them in should all be dead, and at present, only they are still supported, but it is estimated that it will not last long." ”

Li Zhonghong asked, "Can this formation become a spirit?" ”

Yes, once the formation is successful, there will be a spirit, and everything will have a spirit.

Li Xiyan shook his head and said, "I haven't found out, this formation is very clever, I think that when it is formed, it will generate a formation spirit, but the formation spirit is not among them." ”

After he said this, his appearance of wanting to speak again aroused Li Zhonghong's suspicions, and he asked, "What else have you discovered?" ”

Li Xiyan thought for a moment before he said, "Although I don't know if there are spirits or not, I have found another spirit, the spirit of the Great Dao. ”
