Chapter 14: Heart Sect
The white-eyed fairy Weng is the saint of the resentful spirit swamp, and the Northern Heavenly Sword Saint is the first master in the southern corner, the two can be said to be the top two characters in the southern corner, and the meeting of these two can definitely be called the meeting of the century!
The white-eyed fairy Weng put his hand on the gan, and while reminiscing, he said slowly: "The old man was born poor, and his martial arts qualifications are low, he has already accepted his fate, and he plans to be a ninth-rate figure for the rest of his life, but he didn't expect that God gave the old man a chance to turn over, no...... It was the Northern Heaven Sword Saint who gave the old man a chance. β
"Opportunity, what opportunity?" Shi Shengqi said, and the white-eyed immortal said: "Zhong Qian was defeated under the Northern Heaven Sword Saint Sword, his serious injuries are difficult to recover, and his life is dying, only the Northern Heaven Sword Saint knows the method of treatment, and the Northern Heaven Sword Saint is ...... He told the old man about the method. β
Speaking of this, the white-eyed immortal couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and said: "In the entire southern corner of the land, the only master who can compete with the Northern Heaven Sword Saint died in an instant, but the Northern Heaven Sword Saint ...... But because he wanted to give the old man a chance, he was determined to save his strongest opponent. The white-eyed fairy couldn't help but raise his head, looked at the clouds, and said: "After many years, the old man still doesn't understand why he would do this for the sake of the old man, an unknown person. β
When Shi Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but think of Ning You, and said with a slight smile: "It's probably a hero who cherishes a hero!"
The white-eyed fairy smiled slightly and said, "Probably." After a pause, he said: "The Northern Heaven Sword Saint gave the old man this opportunity, the old man was very surprised at the time, and he also had some doubts in his heart, and came to the bounty city with a skeptical attitude. β
"The old man knows. If I can save Zhong Qian, the Zhong family will definitely give me a large sum of gold and silver as a reward, but the old man knows very well in his heart that the Northern Heaven Sword Saint is an otherworldly figure, and the opportunity he gives the old man will not be as simple as the rich side, and the old man decided to make good use of this opportunity and do something. β
"The Northern Heaven Sword Saint regarded the old man as a person of the same level, indicating that he thought the old man had this qualification. Case. How could the old man let him down? So the old man spent all the gold and silver given by the Northern Heavenly Sword Saint, bribed some of his subordinates, and spread rumors in the bounty city, saying that there were immortals in the bounty city. It can bring Zhong Qian back to life. Fling dirt enough and some will stick. The rumor Liliang is very powerful, and under the careful arrangement of the old man, the Zhong family found the old man by accident. β
"The old man is playing tricks. The Zhong family is very grateful to the old man, and he is rewarded with a lot of money, and the old man uses this reward to buy off the descendants of the Zhong family, and even many core disciples of the Zhong family are moved by the old man's gold and silver, so the old man knows a lot of secrets of the Zhong family, especially the privacy of the big people of the Zhong family, and then the old man lied that he knows the fairy law and can know the past and the future. β
The old man has been immersed in the art of people all his life, and he can know the good and evil of people's hearts by looking at people's eyebrows, so he pretended to make a fortune telling, insinuating the privacy of those big people, which naturally frightened them, perhaps out of awe, or out of flattery, or maybe the old man saved Zhong Li, who had been dead for three years, in short, the Zhong family believed in the old man's ability, so they carved out a territory and built a city for the old man to live. β
Speaking of this, the white-eyed immortal Weng smiled slightly, and said: "Originally, the old man spread a rumor in the bounty city, coupled with Zhong Li's incident, the old man's name as a living immortal soon spread throughout the bounty city, and the rumor was like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger, out of control, and even spread to the seven main domains. β
The spread of rumors far exceeded the old man's expectations, which surprised the old man, and after a day and a night of thinking, the old man finally realized something. Speaking of this, the white-eyed immortal Weng stroked his beard with his hand and said: "The bounty city lacks faith, no, it should be said that it is the lack of faith in the Resentful Spirit Swamp, this is the real opportunity given to the old man by the Northern Heaven Sword Saint!"
"Faith?" Shi Sheng was silent, thoughtful in his heart, the white-eyed fairy Weng smiled slightly, and said: "The belief of the Buddha country is the thought of Buddhism, the belief of your blue country is the Taoist Sanqing, the spirit country believes in the sun, the moon and the light, and so on, but these thoughts cannot gain a foothold in the Resentful Spirit Swamp, because the Resentful Spirit Swamp is a place full of bloody violence, eating people and not spitting out bones." β
"In the swamp of the resentful spirit, every stitch and thread have to fight desperately, just like a wilderness, if you really want to say anything about faith, probably only killing and violence, the more people kill, the more empty and panicked their hearts will be, there will be a sense of exhaustion, guilt, they need a faith to fill their hearts, they crave a divine guidance, to purify their souls, they crave the existence of the Pure Land more than anyone else, even if it is only an illusory, non-existent Pure Land, and what the old man gives them is the Pure Land of the Heart. β
Shi Sheng didn't seem to understand when he heard it, frowned and looked at the white-eyed immortal, and said, "Immortal, I don't really understand......
The white-eyed fairy waved his hand, interrupted Shi Sheng, and said, "Shi Sheng, the old man asked you, if you kill someone, will you feel guilty in your heart?"
Shi Sheng said: "It depends on who is killed, if it is a good person killed, I will feel guilty and blame myself, if it is a heinous bad person killed, I have a clear conscience." β
The white-eyed fairy bowed slightly, and said: "It's not bad if you think so, then, if you kill an ignorant person, you don't know whether he is good or bad, can you feel guilty in your heart?" β
Shi Sheng was slightly stunned, groaned slightly, and said, "I will not kill a stranger at will, unless he wants to kill me, or he wants to hurt my dearest and loved ones." β
"Well, your character is really the same as the old man thought. The white-eyed fairy Weng smiled slightly, and said: "The old man asks you again, if you and a stranger are trapped in the same place, the food is very limited, and only one of you can survive, either you die or he dies, will you fight with him?"
Shi Sheng nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes! Natural selection, heaven and earth! If it was me who died, I would have nothing to say." β
"This is a bold statement!" the white-eyed fairy man stroked his beard and smiled, "So, what if that food originally belonged to that stranger, would you snatch it from him in order to survive?"
Shi Sheng was slightly stunned, then shook his head, and said: "No, fighting for the food of the ownerless is to survive, snatching from others is murder, although the younger generation is not talented, but he will not do such a thing that violates morality." β
The white-eyed fairy Weng smiled slightly: "Okay, the old man makes another assumption, if there are three people trapped, you and a stranger, as well as your dearest and loved ones, such as Miss Yao, will you snatch food from that stranger to let Miss Yao survive?"
When Shi Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and he couldn't make a sound for a while, and the white-eyed fairy Weng smiled slightly: "How is it? Shi Sheng, can you still make a decision openly?
Shi Sheng looked at the white-eyed immortal in a daze, hesitated in his heart, and said for a while: "I will snatch it and let Ah Xiang live." β
The white-eyed fairy Weng smiled slightly and said, "If this is the case, will you feel guilty and blame in your heart, will you feel guilty?" Shi Sheng replied truthfully: "Yes." β
The white-eyed immortal turned his head to look at the sky, and sighed leisurely: "The people of the Wraith Swamp are making such a choice every day, do you understand?"
Shi Sheng couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and seemed to understand something in his heart, and the white-eyed fairy Weng said again: " Shi Sheng, the good and evil that you are obsessed with in your heart are really superficial and naΓ―ve, there is no difference between good and bad in existence, the morality you insist on is your faith, such a belief will only make them miserable and make them crazy for the people of the Resentful Spirit Swamp, so the old man has created a new faith, a new thought, which can enlighten the depression in their hearts, can eliminate their guilt and self-blame, eliminate their guilt, and make them believe that everything they do is right and in line with morality. Conform to the rules of survival. β
Saying that, the white-eyed fairy Weng sighed and said: "However, whether it is morality or the rules of survival, they are all formulated by the vast heavens. β
"Just psychological comfort?" Shi Sheng was skeptical in his heart, just by comforting him in his heart, he could make countless martial artists in the Resentful Spirit Swamp, and even emperor-level masters, frantically worship the white-eyed immortal?
As soon as the white-eyed immortal Weng saw Shi Sheng's expression, he knew what he was thinking, smiled slightly, and said: "You may not believe it, but this is indeed the truth, like the Taoist ancestor of Zen Buddhism, the old man created the Heart Sect, but only taught his own perception of heaven and the world to hundreds of millions of believers. β
"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, all things are dogs, mortals look up to the sky, it is difficult to hide the fear of body and mind, what is a fairy? What is a god? On behalf of the will of heaven, in charge of the fate of mortals, with an incomparable liliang, this is the immortal god in people's minds. β
"The legendary Buddha and Taishang Sanqing are all omnipotent, mortals burn incense and worship the Buddha, hoping to get the mercy of the immortals, believers believe in Buddhism, but also because they believe in the Buddha's way, it is the only truth, because in their opinion, the Buddhist scriptures and Taozang are all the Buddha's three clear and all-knowing and all-powerful immortal gods, how can it be wrong? Believers firmly believe that the truth of the Buddha's three purities is right, so that they can seek inner stability, therefore, the old man regards himself as a fairy god and appears in front of the believers with an all-knowing and omnipotent attitude, so that they will take the old man as their belief and believe in the truth passed on by the old man, and their hearts will have a pure land that can be inhabited.
