All dynasties will have the problem of prosperity and decline, the Central Plains will have it, and Goguryeo will also have it.

The king of the Goguryeo generation, Gao Yuan, although he is eloquent and strategic, is unfortunately mean and unkind, just look at him using his own brother's life as bait, it can be seen that this king is extremely cold-blooded, and he will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals!

The reason why Yang Guang raised millions of troops and conquered Goryeo was that on the one hand, it was for the unification of the Central Plains and not to be threatened by foreign people, and the other reason was that since the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, Goguryeo frequently attacked and harassed the border passes, plundering the Han people as slaves and servants, making Yang Guang unbearable.

Since Gao Yuan became king, he has been provoking the Great Sui Dynasty in the Central Plains, delusionally thinking that he could enter the Central Plains, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Goguryeo has no strength to invade the Central Plains at all.

Wang Zhong directly put Goguryeo's question out, and Fu Cailin's face suddenly darkened and was a little gloomy.

"The old man is a Korean, although he is conceited and has good martial arts, he still has a lot of helplessness!"

Wang Zhong said with a smile: "With Master Fu's heart, he could have stayed out of the matter, why do you still wade into this troubled water?"

Fu Cailin said: "The old man learned swords at the age of four, and he became a master at the age of thirty, and since then his sword skills have improved, but there are always shortcomings!"

"At the age of forty-five, the old man realized that there is a cliff in swordsmanship, and there is no cliff in swordsmanship, and since then he has comprehended the beauty of heaven and earth, the beauty of the world, and the success of swordsmanship!"

Wang Zhong didn't understand why Fu Cailin suddenly talked about his martial arts path.

"After the old man entered the way of the sword, he knew that the beauty of the world is nothing but life!" Fu Cailin explained to Wang Zhong: "The beauty of life lies in self-improvement!"

Wang Zhong finally understood that Fu Cailin's resistance to the million-strong army of the Great Sui was not for Gao Yuan, but for the sake of the thousands of people of Goryeo, and for the beauty of the best life in the world.

"Master Fu holds a sword for the people, and the younger generations are not as good as him!" Wang Zhong has great respect for people of noble character, although he is not that kind of person.

"The old man's sword way lies in the word "beauty", what about Xiaoyou?" Fu Cailin's rhetorical question made Wang Zhong silent.

"What is my way?" Wang Zhong whispered to himself.

He's confused!

The martial arts of the Datang world pay attention to spiritual cultivation, and when martial arts reach the highest level, what they pursue is their own spiritual sublimation.

Fu Cailin's martial arts lies in the pursuit of the ultimate of "beauty", there is "beauty" between heaven and earth, and everything has a beautiful side, so he is one of the three great masters.

Where is Wang Zhong's way?

At the beginning, he traveled through the world of Xiaoao, practiced martial arts in order to survive, and completed the tasks assigned by the "system".

Later, after entering the world of flying knives, Wang Zhong fell into confusion, with his martial arts and understanding of the plot, it is not difficult to achieve a career, but so what, it is just a continuation of the world of laughter.

It was precisely because of his confusion that Lin Xian'er provoked him three or four times, he didn't care, how could the elephant care about the ant's provocation.

If it was changed to a smile and pride, Lin Xian'er dared to provoke him, and the grave would probably grow grass.

It wasn't until later that Wang Zhong knew the truth of the "system", he was just a chess piece in the hands of the strong, and he didn't even have the qualifications to be a chess piece, so Wang Zhong wanted to gain strength and get rid of the fate of the chess piece.

In the Tianlong World, Wang Zhong cultivated the strongest martial arts, and even some unscrupulous means to achieve his goals, all to cover up his fragile sense of security.

In the end, he became the strongest person in the Tianlong world, and lived until he was one hundred and eighty years old, and the invincible loneliness made him almost crazy, so he chose to take the initiative to die and enter reincarnation.

Wang Zhong has always been a weak person in his heart, in the final analysis, he is an ordinary person, a member of all living beings, if there is no chance of crossing, he would have spent his ordinary life, married a wife and had children, and spent every day plainly.

Now that Wang Zhong's qigong has been completed, the next step is the cultivation of the soul, and the first step of spiritual cultivation is to recognize his own martial arts path.

Fu Cailin's martial arts path is the pursuit of "beauty", the evil king Shi Zhixuan's path is "the devil's world", and what is Wang Zhong's way?

Wang Zhong fell into deep thought, he had never thought about this question, but the first step of the way of the soul was to recognize his own true heart, otherwise everything would be empty talk.

Fu Cailin and Fu Junwu didn't bother Wang Zhong, they knew that it was very important to Wang Zhong now, and once he was harassed by the outside world, his martial arts road would be bumpy in the future.

Wang Zhong was silent for a long time, and after half a cup of tea, Wang Zhong raised his head and said to Fu Cailin: "I practice martial arts, I just want to get rid of the shackles of fate, I want to be free!"

As soon as the word "freedom" came out, Wang Zhong suddenly had a feeling of seeing the blue sky through the clouds, as if his soul had erased the dust, and even his internal force became more lively!

What Wang Zhong desires most in his heart is not money and power, not invincible in the world, but the most basic "freedom".

He seems to have gotten rid of the control of the "system", but he has not gotten rid of the fate of "reincarnation", and Wang Zhong is tired of being at the mercy of invisible forces again and again, he wants to transcend all fate and control his life!

After recognizing his true heart, Wang Zhong's spirit changed, as if the world had become more exciting!

"Master Fu, why do you want to help me?" Wang Zhong wondered.

"The old man is not helping you, but helping Goryeo!" Fu Cailin said bluntly: "The old man is sure that Yang Guang will personally conquer Goryeo in the near future!"

Wang Zhong said: "Even if my predecessors help me recognize my true heart, I will not show mercy to my subordinates on the battlefield!"

Fu Cailin said with a smile: "The old man thinks that no matter how many times Yang Guang personally conquers, Goryeo will not surrender to the Central Plains, but the Great Sui will lose its national strength because of the conquest of Goryeo, and the people's hearts will turn against it.

Wang Zhong was puzzled: "Master Fu is not afraid that the junior martial arts will surpass you?"

"Haha!" Fu Cailin smiled heartily and said: "If the old man is afraid of being surpassed by his juniors, he will never have today's martial arts!"

Wang Zhong frowned, still a little puzzled: "Senior, you must still have a purpose?"

Fu Cailin smiled and said nothing, as if he didn't want to tell Wang Zhong anymore.

"The apprentice is thanks to Xiaoyou's care during this time, the old man wants her to travel to the Central Plains for a while, I don't know if Xiaoyou can take care of the apprentice more because of the old man's kindness!"

When Fu Junwu heard this, she was anxious.

"Master, aren't you taking me back to Goryeo?"

Fu Cailin smiled at Fu Junwu and said, "There will always be a day when the fledgling will fly high, and it will be difficult for you to succeed in martial arts under the protection of your teacher!"

Fu Junwu's eyes were slightly red, and she said, "The apprentice doesn't want to leave the master!"

"Silly boy!" Fu Cailin touched Fu Junwu's head and said: "As a teacher, I didn't let you come back, you traveled to the Central Plains, and after you have achieved martial arts, you will return to your master!"

Wang Zhong also smiled at this time: "Master Fu wants Miss Fu to lurk in the Central Plains, waiting for an opportunity to investigate the truth of the Central Plains, so that she can go back and defend Goryeo!"

Hearing Wang Zhong's words, Fu Junwu's eyes lit up, and she immediately stopped insisting on returning to Goryeo.

Fu Cailin smiled at Wang Zhong, and then drifted away.

"Little thief, don't think that if my master asks you to take care of me, you can bully me!" Fu Junwu immediately put on a hostile attitude towards Wang Zhong after Fu Cailin left.

Wang Zhong shook his head, he didn't care about Fu Junwu, he sat cross-legged in the cabin and practiced internal strength!

After a night of silence, the Great Sui's fleet slowly advanced towards Luoyang.
