Palace of Eternal Life.

Hearing this name, Li Xuandu suddenly remembered the thin black boy named Shen Changsheng, and he didn't know how he was doing now.

However, Li Xuandu's thoughts did not stay here for long, and soon turned to other things.

In fact, now the plans of all parties are like a chess game, which has been put on the bright side, the key is whether it can be seen, and what will be the future direction, Li Xuandu, as a person in the game, has to think about it if he wants not to become an outcast.

Therefore, along the way, Li Xuan rarely spoke, but subconsciously rubbed the long knife at his waist, as if he would burst out and kill at any time.

Nan Kezi walked beside Li Xuandu, a little worried.

Although this old man is not young, he has not really experienced the tragic battle between good and evil, and most of the time he stays in the sect, and this time he was involved in this war with the Soap Pavilion Sect by chance, and it is inevitable that he will feel worried.

On the contrary, Li Xuandu and others, although they are not very old, but they have experienced a lot of various battles, they are all people who experienced the changes in the imperial capital back then.

After Nan Kezi pondered repeatedly, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Li, do you think that our attack on the Soap Pavilion Sect this time will cause a war between good and evil?"

Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "No." ”

Both of them are in a line, but they are not afraid of being heard by others.

Nan Kezi was a little surprised: "How can you see it?"

Li Xuandu smiled slightly and said, "The Taoist leader rarely participates in the disputes of fame and fortune in the rivers and lakes, so he is not very familiar with it. ”

Nan Kezi's old face flushed and admitted: "Let Mr. Li smile." ”

"There is a specialization in the art industry. Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "There's nothing to laugh at." Since the Taoist chief asked so, then I will talk to the Taoist chief. My aunt said it in vain, and the Taoist aunt listened to it in vain. ”

Nan Kezi nodded and said, "Listen up." ”

Li Xuan said unhurriedly: "In today's rivers and lakes, although there is a distinction between good and evil, but because of their respective interests, they are not monolithic, so there is a 'four-six dispute'. Today's situation in the rivers and lakes can be said to have reached a balance to a certain extent, although this balance contains many unreasonable places, but it is much better than the two sides completely tearing their faces, so that the good and evil sides can be at peace now. ”

"The Taoist Chief's fear is that our move will upset this balance, but in fact, we are only muddying the waters, not breaking the balance. Today, our righteous side seems to be attacking, but in fact it is defending, in other words, we are attacking instead of defending. Why do we have to attack instead of defending? Actually, it's also very simple, because if we don't take the initiative to take action, the people in the evil path will do something to us, and in the case of the old man's alchemy, if he really succeeds in luck, it will still be us in the righteous path who will suffer. ”

Nan Kezi just didn't go to the camp to do these things, not ignorant of the world, listened deeply, and then asked: "What do you mean to muddy the water?"

Li Xuandu replied: "The five sects of the Northwest established the Northwest Great Zhou, and their ambitions are obvious, and it is they who really want to break the balance, and this balance is not established by any person or people, it is recognized by the entire rivers and lakes. Now the five sects in the northwest will break the balance whether they are against our twelve sects of the righteous path, or against anyone else, if we just fight alone, and whether we can do it or not, this is not the best choice, the best choice is to pull others to fight with us, and the way we pull others together is not to persuade them, but to involve their interests and interests, so that they will naturally take action, this is to muddy the waters. ”

Nan Kezi continued to ask, "What does our attack on the Soap Pavilion Sect have to do with what Mr. Li said about muddying the water?"

Li Xuandu analyzed them one by one: "The so-called way of struggle is actually to let the interests and disadvantages of it surface. First of all, let's separate the five sects in the northwest, what really wants to break the balance will not be the Soap Pavilion Sect, but there is another mastermind behind the scenes, we are fighting with the Soap Pavilion Sect on the surface, and the black hands behind the scenes are mediating in the dark, the enemy is clear and I am dark, and it is not good for me. ”

"Secondly, the stakes are not only related to us, all the people in the rivers and lakes, such as the Qingyang Sect, are actually involved in the actions of the five sects in the northwest, but they are watching the changes on the sidelines, wanting to wait for us to lose both, and then jump out to reap the benefits of the fisherman, so even if we start a war with the ten sects of the evil path, there is no reason to condone them to play the trick of the Yellow Sparrow. ”

"Now we are attacking the Soap Pavilion Sect, although Beibi Mountain is the sphere of influence of the Soap Pavilion Sect, but after all, it is not the Soap Pavilion Sect, since we did not directly attack the mountain gate of the Soap Pavilion Sect, but came here to destroy the Taiyin corpse that is about to be born, then the Ten Evil Dao Sects will not be able to pick anything wrong, and it will not develop into a war between good and evil, just like the palace officials of the Lady Sect destroyed the Long Clan in Ping'an County under the banner of revenge, it is the same reason. ”

"This is only one of them, and the second is that we forced out the mastermind behind the scenes, presumably the Taoist also saw it, we have met two Ming officials of the Yin-Yang Sect on the way, since the Yin-Yang Sect has had to enter, then they can't continue to mediate behind the scenes as before, this is like a chessboard, it's easy to look at the overall situation outside, but once you are also trapped in the chessboard, it will be constrained everywhere. If they don't end up in person, then the Soap Pavilion Sect as a shield will greatly damage its vitality, and it will also be unfavorable to the Yin Yang Sect, so the Yin and Yang Sect is in a dilemma, which is why they sent people to intercept it, but it was not so resolute, and only sent two Ming officials, indicating that they themselves also had differences on this matter. Besides, if you guess about it, I'm afraid that the earth master hasn't made up his mind either. ”

"Also, the Daoist and I met the men and horses of the Qingyang Sect earlier, which shows that they also have thoughts on this matter, so we will take the opportunity to attack this place, and we will just drag them into the water again, and no matter which way they are biased, in this way, the water will become more and more muddy, and we, as the defending side, will have room to toss and turn. ”

"In addition, the same is true for the five sects of Liaodong, although they are also among the evil ways, but they have never been the same as the five sects in the northwest, and they act more gently, if I am allowed to divide them, the five sects in the northwest are close to the devil's way, and the five sects of Liaodong are just evil ways, the former is hopeless, but the latter still has room to win over, we can also take advantage of this matter to show the plot of the Soap Pavilion Sect to the world, the people in the evil way pay attention to a weak and strong eat, the five sects of Liaodong headed by the Replenishing Heaven Sect will never sit idly by, in order to protect themselves, they also have to have a move。 ”

"This is just a consideration of the overall situation, and then there are some other subtle considerations, such as Yan Feiqing has to consider his prestige in the rivers and lakes, and with the help of this matter, he can help consolidate his position as the head of the Zhengyi Sect. The Twelve Sects of the Righteous Path are not monolithic, Su Yuncheng wants to seek Cihang Sect to make a name for himself in this matter, after all, there is a Jing Zen Sect above Cihang Sect, which is the real ancestral court of Buddhism. And Master Wuzhen blindly kept his hands, not because he was greedy for life and afraid of death, but because he was in his position, he had to think about it for the sake of the Vajra Sect, after all, the Vajra Sect was not equivalent to the Zhengyi Sect of half a chess player, and his strength was weak, so he still had to learn to protect himself. ”

Nan Kezi was dumbfounded.

He originally thought that this crusade against the Soap Pavilion Sect was a temporary matter, but he didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns, all parties calculated, and all parties planned, it was really a big deal to hear.

At the same time, I also admired this young junior.

No wonder he was able to personally participate in such a major event as the Imperial Capital Change, it seems that it is not explained by a superior force, as a leader of a faction, it is inevitable that he will be superior in force, but it can't be nothing more than that.

In the same way, there are also Yan Feiqing, Su Yuncheng and others, who are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they are worthy of being the choice of the sect masters who have been cultivated by the two major sects.

Thinking of this, the old Taoist couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This Jianghu, after a lifetime of mixing, still hasn't been mixed, it's really not easy to mix.

He rashly participated in such a thing that affected his whole body this time, and if he could return to the sect safely in the future, he would inevitably be reprimanded by the sect master.

He, a person who has buried half of the loess, will still refine his own Dan with peace of mind in the future, and if there is such a thing, if he can not agree, he will not agree, and it is better to cause less trouble.
