Li Xuandu looked at it for another moment, and suddenly turned the horse's head: "Let's go, go over and take a look." ”

Shen Changsheng hurriedly wanted to turn the horse's head around, but his mount lost his temper at this time and stood still, Shen Changsheng had no choice but to turn over and dismount, pulling the reins and following behind Li Xuandu.

Shen Changsheng walked a few steps quickly, came to Li Xuandu's side, and asked, "Mr. Li, didn't you just say that the gentry are all bad people, why do you want to help them?"

Li Xuandu said: "Changsheng, you have to remember one sentence, your position determines what you say, what position you stand on, what kind of things you will do." If you were a gentry, you would behave like these gentry, and you would not find it inappropriate in the slightest. But if you stand in the position of the people, then these gentry are the most heinous people, so it depends on how you choose your own position, and only with your position can you have your own opinion and solve problems. ”

Shen Changsheng thought for a while and hesitated: "What does Mr. Li mean is that you stand on the position of the people?"

Li Xuandu smiled but did not answer, and instead said: "There are some things that cannot be generalized by partiality, and they should also not be generalized by comprehensiveness, and should be viewed independently." For example, you can't regard all the people in the righteous path as hypocrites just because there are scum in the right path, and you can't regard all the people in the righteous path as people in the evil way because there are heroes in the evil path. On the other hand, you can't think of all people in the right path as true gentlemen because of the name of the right path, and you can't think of all people in the right path as despicable villains because of the name of the evil path, which is not right. You have to learn to see separately and discern for yourself. As today, you can't deny all the gentry because of the evil of the entire gentry, nor can you affirm the entire gentry because of the goodness of the individual gentry, understand?"

Shen Changsheng was dizzy when he heard it, but he probably understood it, and nodded heavily.

Li Xuandu smiled slightly: "It's good to understand, so whether they are powerful people or ordinary people, it has nothing to do with our help, take a step back, even if this family is not a good person, why should the child be innocent?"

Shen Changsheng whispered, "None of us are children anymore. ”

Li Xuandu laughed.

When Li Xuandu approached the convoy, a guard immediately looked at the two vigilantly and blocked their way.

"It's safe, it's peaceful. Li Xuandu stopped his horse and stood: "We are disciples of the Taiping Sect, under Li Xuance." Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at Shen Changsheng beside him, and said without changing his face: "This is my junior brother Shen Changsheng." Seeing that you seem to be in some trouble, I came here to ask you to see if there is anything you need help with. ”

Several guards were suddenly a little surprised, after all, those who walk the rivers and lakes can not know the fierce and domineering Wudao Sect, or they can not know the unpredictable Yin Yang Sect, and they can even not know the Zhengyi Sect, which is known as the ancestral court of Taoism, but they can't only not know the Taiping Sect. In all fairness, the Taiping Inn and Taiping Money Village all over the place, as well as the Taiping Money that is commonly used in the rivers and lakes, it is difficult to know the Taiping Sect.

This is obviously not something that a few guards can call the shots, and someone immediately went to report, and after a while, a middle-aged man and an old man walked together.

The middle-aged man was full of books, and although his face could not hide his anxiety, he still maintained his composure. And the old man is eyes are shining brightly, his temples are bulging high, although because of old age, it is inevitable that his qi and blood will fail, and his strength will not be at its peak again, but his qi cultivation is becoming more and more profound because of his long cultivation, far better than when he was young.

The middle-aged man arched his hand towards Li Xuandu and said, "In Xia Xiaoqing, I have seen two masters of the Taiping Sect.

Li Xuandu had already turned over and dismounted, and returned the salute with his fists: "Dare to ask Mr. Xiao, but the Xiao family of Langya Mansion?"

Xiao Qing's face showed a little embarrassment, and said, "Down is the Xiao family of Beihai Fang." ”

Li Xuandu was suddenly surprised.

Langya Mansion Xiao family inheritance years, far more than Lanling Mansion Pei, so there are six side branches, namely the North Ancestral House, the South Ancestral House, the West Beijing Room, the Dijing Room, the Beihai House, Langya House, these six rooms Xiao family from the same ancestor, but after more than 1,000 years of inheritance, they are relatively distant from each other, and each has a native ancestor, saying that it is a vein is also a vein, and it is not a vein nor a vein.

Xiao Yun and Xiao Chi's father and son are Langya Fang, this Xiao Qing is Beihai Fang, and Xiao Shiyu is from the North Ancestral House, but because of an accident, the North Ancestral House has been completely defeated, so Xiao Shiyu will live in Langya Mansion Xiao when he was young, Xiao Yun's cousin, and half of Langya's clan, but it is inevitable that people will be bullied under the fence, and what grievances will make Xiao Shiyu and Langya Fang turn against each other, not Li Xuan can know.

When the Qingyang Sect rebelled in Qizhou, Beihai Mansion was the first to fall, so it was reasonable for Xiao Qing, who was the head of the Xiao family in Beihai Fang, to flee from other states.

Li Xuandu asked: "Dare to ask Mr. Xiao, what happened to your car?" I noticed something abnormal, but it disappeared in a flash, and I can't be sure, so I came to ask. ”

A trace of surprise flashed on the face of the old man beside Xiao Qing, and he couldn't help but believe a little more in this young man who claimed to be a disciple of the Taiping Sect. At this time, Xiao Qing was also a little helpless, and said with a wry smile: "I really don't hide it from the two of you, yes, it's the little girl who is missing." ”

Li Xuandu immediately remembered the little girl who had just lifted the curtains, and his mind sank: "If Mr. Xiao can trust me, can you take me over to take a look at the situation?"

Xiao Qing saw that the old man next to him had no objection, so he said: "Then there are two Lao, Xiao thanked me in advance, please come with me." ”

Li Xuandu and Shen Changsheng followed Xiao Qing to a carriage, it was the carriage that the little girl was riding in just now, and before she entered the carriage, she could ask about the strong smell of blood.

However, Li Xuan is a person who is accustomed to seeing bloody wind and rain, so he will naturally not be frightened, and when Shen Changsheng was in the Taiping Inn, he also did the work of burying corpses, plus the party in Shuzhou later, he didn't know how much he had seen in the tragic situation, and he was not afraid, but he was secretly worried about that cute little girl.

Li Xuandu stepped into the driver's position and lifted the curtain, only to see that there were only two corpses in the car, one old and one young, the old one should be the wet nurse of a large family, responsible for teaching the young lady various rules and etiquette, and the young one is a personal maid who takes care of the little girl's daily life. At this time, both of them had their throats slit, blood flowed all over the ground, and what was even more strange was that there was no frightened look on their faces, but a strange smile was revealed, and the maid's face even had a little redness, as if she had seen some wonderful scene, which made the two of them forget even life and death.

Li Xuandu's nose twitched slightly, and there was a faint fragrance mixed with the woman's body fragrance and fat powder aroma in the carriage.

Shen Changsheng said nervously: "Li Xian...... Senior brother, what do you see?"

Li Xuandu pondered for a moment: "If my expectations are correct, this should be the 'Soul Suppression Incense', which is one of the 'Eight Divine Powers' of my Taiping Sect." ”

The old man's heart was shocked, and he subconsciously pressed the blade on his waist and put on a posture that he could shoot at any time.

Li Xuandu waved his hand and said: "Don't be nervous, the people who use the means of the Taiping Sect may not be the people of the Taiping Sect, the so-called 'Eight Divine Powers', corresponding to Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, Dui, this is the innate gossip, and it is secretly combined with the eight doors in the Qimen Dunjia, which are: Hugh, Sheng, Injury, Du, Jing, Death, Shock, and Open." It is not only a cultivation method, but also eight kinds of utensils, such as the 'phoenix eye', which is not only commonly used by the Taiping Sect, but also equipped by the imperial army. ”

Hearing this, the old man's hostility greatly decreased, and he hugged his fists and said, "It's the little old man who is reckless." ”

Li Xuandu asked, "But are there other things?"

Xiao Qing sighed, took out a plain note from his sleeve, and said: "The little girl's single name is a 'bamboo' character, when I noticed that something was wrong and entered the carriage, I found that the bamboo was gone, only this." ”

Li Xuandu took the plain note and took a look, only to see that it was written: "Seeing Ling Yuan today, she is gifted, her roots and bones are on the shelf, she is really a first-class talent and beautiful jade, and she has a fate with me, so she accepted him as a disciple and went with me. ”

This sketch was not written with pen and ink, but was written with a finger dipped in blood, apparently on the spot, rather than on a pre-prepared basis, and the two people who died tragically may have died from this improvised intention.

Li Xuandu's eyes changed slightly: "Feeling the Great Dao, it's really a big breath." ”
