After Li Xuandu set foot in the Medicine King Palace, the other four Taoists left one after another.

Nan Kezi smiled bitterly: "Although I and these senior brothers have been alchemy on the mountain for many years, but after living at such an old age, at least we still understand the sophistication of human feelings, and Mr. Li seems to have something to say." ”

Li Xuandu leaned on a bamboo cane and said softly: "Nan Kezi Daoist don't have to worry too much, we have experienced life and death together, I can trust the Taoist, but to say something that the Taoist may not like to listen to, the other Daoists, I have not had much contact, so naturally I can't talk about the word 'letter', and this 'Wuqi Zhendan' is a major matter related to my realm, so I can't treat it carelessly." ”

Nan Kezi immediately remembered the words of the two senior brothers, saying that this "Wuqi True Pill" handed over to Li Xuan didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse, and he originally thought it was the unintentional words of the two senior brothers, but now it seems that it may not be the case, and he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and said: "Mr. Li means ......"

Li Xuandu said: "You can't have the heart to harm people, and you can't have the heart to prevent people." Since my sixth junior brother can come to Danxia Peak one step ahead of me, it means that the news of this matter has leaked out, and I believe that it will not be the Dao Chief, so it can only be that other people on this Danxia Peak have revealed the news. ”

Nan Kezi's expression suddenly became solemn.

Li Xuandu smiled slightly: "Don't be too careful, I don't mean to blame the Dao Chief, the Dao Leader will do his best for me to refine the pill, and the Dao Leader will refine the pill with the other four Dao Masters......"

Nan Kezi was taken aback: "Could it be that Mr. Li suspects that someone has done something in the process of alchemy?" Please rest assured Mr. Li, Lao Dao participated in the entire process of alchemy, and it is absolutely impossible for someone to do anything under Lao Dao's nose. ”

Li Xuandu waved his hand and said: "Dao Chang and peace of mind, I have never doubted the Dao Chief, and I don't think anyone has done anything in the process of alchemy, because I have no grievances with all the Dao Chiefs, and I really want to trouble me, it is nothing more than because of the word 'profit', but it involves a 'benefit' word, and I have to weigh the benefits and disadvantages, and if I break the alchemy, it is to make an enmity against me, and it is said that cutting off people's wealth is like killing my parents, for us people in the rivers and lakes, the cultivation of the realm of bad people is almost the same, so this is the hatred of life and death." Therefore, I expected that that person would definitely not dare to offend me on the surface, so it would be impossible for him to act rashly in the process of alchemy, because several other people were experts in alchemy, and it was clear who had made a mistake there. ”

Nan Kezi's face softened slightly, and said, "It's still Mr. Li who is thoughtful." ”

Li Xuandu continued: "If you want to damage my realm, there are two excellent opportunities, one is when I take the pill for retreat, and the other is after the pill is baked and before I take the pill. I am also considered to have walked the rivers and lakes for many years, well versed in two truths, people's hearts can not withstand temptation, let alone test, since there is no grudge, then whether to do it or not is also in a thought, so I don't want to know who is going to make a move on me, I came a step ahead, not only to prevent trouble, but also to hope that person before the precipice to make a big mistake. There are some things that are not perfect in the world. ”

Nan Kezi couldn't help but praise: "Mr. Li really has the style of a benevolent gentleman. ”

Li Xuandu laughed at himself: "The Taoist praises falsely. In fact, because of the bad name, the family teacher once said that it is safer to be respected and feared. If I am really a benevolent gentleman, some people will act unscrupulously, because they know that I am reasonable, forgiving, and rules, and everything is in the box of rules, and what I will do is expected. But Zifuke is different, if you don't agree with each other, you will draw your sword, and if you draw your sword, you will kill someone, and they all say that killing people will be powerful, which is the truth. Moreover, Zifuke can't act with common sense, and people in the world are always afraid of the unknown, and they are afraid of fear. ”

Nan Kezi nodded frequently when he heard this.

Lu Yanbing was thoughtful.

Li Xuandu tilted his head slightly and said to Lu Yanbing: "I told my junior sister before that I often act without being upright enough, and that's why. And the reason why my sister is jealous of me is also for these reasons. ”

Lu Yanbing did not refute and acquiesced to this statement.

Li Xuandu sighed: "The rivers and lakes are not only the fighting power of swords and swords, but also the fighting spirit of power and strategy. Throughout the ages, there is nothing new in the sun, and it has always been one thing to say and another to do. In short: 'Miscellaneous use of the way of the king. 'It is called the way of kings, but in fact it is domineering. Therefore, the first priority of the master of a sect is to take into account his own interests, the second priority is to take into account the interests of his own henchmen, and the interests of the sect and ordinary disciples are put last. The rivers and lakes are like this, and the temples are also like this, so there will be the Taoist clear stream who says the words of 'suffering and suffering the people'. Yasheng said: 'The people are precious, the community is secondary, and the king is light.' But in fact, the monarch is precious, the community is secondary, and the people are light. ”

Lu Yanbing heard the meaning of Li Xuandu's words, his face turned slightly pale, and said, "What does senior brother mean by this......?

Li Xuandu shook his head and did not say anything.

Lu Yanbing glanced at Nan Kezi, Nan Kezi understood, and took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.

After only the two brothers and sisters were left, Lu Yanbing said softly: "Senior brother, there are only you and me at this time, can you confess to me once? What are you doing all this for, whether it is the world or the common people? As you just said, what benefits can you get by saying one thing and doing another?"

Li Xuandu was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "When I say people who are inconsistent in words and deeds, I mean the emperor. In addition, there are people in this world who walk the talk. ”

Lu Yanbing was noncommittal.

Li Xuandu said leisurely: "People have a threefold realm, looking at the mountain is a mountain, looking at the mountain is not a mountain, looking at the mountain is still a mountain." ”

"When I was a child, I greatly admired the Qingtian loyal ministers in the drama script, and felt that they dared to speak up to the emperor and dare to die, this is a really good person, and at that time I felt that the world was black and white, and those who were against the loyal ministers were naturally traitors. ”

"When I was a teenager, I set foot in the rivers and lakes, thinking that I was an old man, and I saw the changeable hearts of the people in the rivers and lakes, and felt that everyone was wearing a mask. In short, good and evil are confused, right and wrong are not distinguished, and black and white are not distinguished. Therefore, I think that everything must be done to your death, and you must step on the bones of the enemy to achieve the so-called great cause, even if the other party is your former benefactor or your friend, as long as it stands in your way, you must get rid of it. This is the decisive killing, and this is the generation of heroes. At the same time, I began to think that those loyal ministers are nothing more than that, they do not measure their own strength, they talk empty talk and mislead the country, they only play lip service, and the so-called righteous words are just inviting direct names, and they are hypocrites. ”

Li Xuandu paused for a moment and sighed long: "Later, I experienced all kinds of joys and sorrows, experienced ups and downs, and I finally found that those people who were once considered to be immeasurable, they didn't know that the road ahead was bumpy and difficult, but they never stopped, and for that almost impossible goal, they really relied on their enthusiasm to die." During this period, some people may be able to become rich and prosperous and live a stable life just by stopping, but they do not. Some people know that the general trend is like this for a long time, but they still live to die and face it calmly. You think they're hypocrites, but they've been gentlemen all their lives. You may think that they are here to invite a name, but with what they do, they deserve to be famous. ”

Li Xuandu "looked" at Lu Yanbing, and said earnestly: "Sometimes, when you look back, the shrewd calculations you once thought you used to be smart were just clever but mistaken by cleverness. ”

"In the previous dynasty, the Great Jin Dynasty, the country was not right, how to win the country, how to lose the country. ”

Li Xuandu suddenly raised his voice: "Emperor Taizu of this dynasty started at the end of Qingping, and he was in the same robe with his son, where is it?"

Lu Yanbing was stunned and didn't know how to speak.

Li Xuandu pointed to his chest: "In the annals of history, in people's hearts." ”

Lu Yanbing subconsciously held his breath.

Li Xuandu muttered: "Ten years of drinking ice, it is difficult to cool the blood." ”
