Xiao Yi's figure froze, and his face showed a look of pain. Slowly turned around and looked at the farmer behind him.

But seeing the seven farmers with hideous faces, each holding a dagger in their hands, three of them had already stabbed in front of Xiao Yi's body, and he only needed to enter Xiao Yi's body by one more inch. The remaining four daggers followed closely behind, and they were about to stab them. It's just that for some reason, those three daggers can't be pierced.

The demon sneered, "When did you become smart?"

Those farmers who were originally honest, cowardly and helpless were also laughing fiercely at this time, with mockery on their faces.

In a trance, Xiao Yi felt that the appearance of these farmers was changing, first Ming Hao, Jing Ling, then Ming Ran, and the corpse barn......

Xiao Yi ignored the demons in his heart, felt a faint pain in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "People, do you really want to be like this?" This seems to be asking others, but it is actually asking yourself.

A lesson from the previous car, a teacher from the back. From the very beginning, Xiao Yi was already vigilant, urging his true qi to protect his body and guard against him. But precautions are precautions, and he still extremely unwilling to see this scene happen.

At this time, if anyone else saw his eyes, they should be extremely shocked. Because that kind of look is too complicated, so complicated that it is heart-wrenching.

"Is this human nature?" Xiao Yi kept asking himself, "Why can't people in the world treat each other with kindness, trust and love each other, and do their duty?

"Human nature is inherently evil. To be born between heaven and earth is to live. It is human nature to be hungry and hungry, to be cold and to be warm, to work and to rest, to be good and evil. In order to live, people will do everything they can, including harming others, even their parents and siblings. "The demons took the opportunity to instigate. "Whether it's Ming Hao, Jing Ling, or Ming Ran, they are all here to live, or to live better. So, everything they do. It's all understandable. You Xiao Yi is the same, in order to pass the test, you abandoned these farmers, it is also natural, no one will complain about you. ”

The words of the heart demon were like thin needles, piercing deeply into Xiao Yi's heart.

Xiao Yi felt a little bored in his chest, and immediately shouted: "Shut up, it's nonsense!"

The demon smiled. deliberately provoked Xiao Yi and said, "Actually, these farmers are all souls. In the long wait, they have lost their cognition, leaving only their true nature. If they can kill you during this level, they can use your body to get out of this place. Be human again, and your soul will remain here forever. Kill you. It's human nature, you have to admit it. So, if you want to get out of here, you have to abandon them. ”

By this time, the peasants had become unrecognizable and vicious. gave up the dagger, and threw himself on his whole body, wanting to enter Xiao Yi's body. Although under the protection of the strong Five Elements True Qi, it was extremely difficult for them to go one more inch, but those evil thoughts ignored the support. swarming in, eroding Xiao Yi's mind.

The so-called praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind. Just as the farmers pounced on Xiao Yi, the tigers behind them had already opened their bloody mouths and pounced on them. The farmers were so frightened that they could only rush forward, hoping to get into Xiao Yi's body before the tiger attacked.

The heart demon laughed wildly and said, "The white sand is in Nirvana, and it is black with it. If you want to survive in this chaotic world, you must learn to be selfish and self-serving. The more the demon laughed, the more arrogant he became, and his breath became stronger and stronger.

Xiao Yi felt that his heart was surrounded by countless black lines, constantly shrinking and eroding. The most terrifying thing is that the weaker his mind, the stronger the demon's breath. If this continues, his real mind will be occupied by demons. Then he will no longer be him, but a villain with only evil thoughts.

"Is this the real test of 'people asking'? This is not 'people asking,' it's 'asking the heart.'" What the heart desires is what people want. Xiao Yi suddenly understood the meaning of the "people ask" test.

It's a choice, a thought. In life, one thought is good and one thought is evil, it only depends on how I choose.

The heart demon could sense that Xiao Yi's heart was weakening slightly, and continued: "If you want to live, you must know how to use others and use other people's corpses to pave the way for you. If you give up early, you will not only pass the test, but you will also live a better life. Feeling that Xiao Yi's heart was gradually biased towards his side, the demon smiled more happily.

However, at this moment, Xiao Yi suddenly said in a deep voice: "You are wrong! Although the world is chaotic, there is also truth, goodness and beauty in chaos. 'There is benevolence and righteousness in the waste of the road, and there is great hypocrisy in wisdom'. There is right and there is wrong, and there is good and there is evil. There is no shortage of good and evil in the world, what is lacking is the righteous qi that can distinguish between good and evil!" With that, a golden halo shot out from his body, instantly forcing out all the black lines that surrounded his heart.

This golden halo has both the heroic righteousness of Confucianism and the inaction of Taoism. The peasants were so frightened by the light that they fled as if they had touched a soldering iron.

Seeing the tigers pounce, they opened their mouths to engulf the farmers. Xiao Yi waved his hand, and the cold light of the Heavenly Sword flashed. Suddenly, the roars of the tigers rose one after another, or they broke their legs, or they were blind, and they were injured one after another.

Xiao Yi said: "I don't want to kill you, it doesn't mean that I just let you do evil. His voice was upright and had an air of majesty.

Under his momentum, the farmers could no longer get within five steps of him. The Tiger King, who was above, had just recovered his strength and was about to turn back to attack, but he also won more momentum, and he didn't dare to move, so he was stunned on the spot.

"Good and evil are relative, and where there is good, there is evil. If you want to get rid of evil, you must go to good. Therefore, I do not choose good or evil, I choose the spirit of righteousness. I hope that in my life, I can resolve the good and evil in the world and create a harmonious world. Xiao Yi said solemnly, his face radiating a holy light.

With that, he turned and walked up the ninth step, feeling very relaxed in his heart.

Under this experience, he finally found his way, freed himself from Minghao and other incidents, and re-understood the world.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

On the square in front of the Heavenly Dao Temple, Xuanwu Zhenren looked at a fleeting auspicious light in the sky, and said with a smile: "After all, he is a descendant of Confucianism, and at a young age, he has the state of mind of the inner saint and the outer king. ”

The ice sparrow was looking at the emaciated back. I felt a little joy and a little worry in my heart, and a trace of confusion appeared on my face. But after listening to the words of Xuanwu Zhenren, he came back to his senses and said: "That is not only the realm of the Confucian inner sage and the outer king, in the eyes of this king, in his heart, it is still more important to do nothing." ”

Xuanwu Zhenren smiled and said: "Confucianism and Taoism are morally contradictory, and there are many discords, I can't imagine that these two realms can appear in the same person and at the same time." If it weren't for what Poor Dao saw with his own eyes, it would have been hard to believe. ”

Bingque said: "Don't say it's you, this king has lived for 10,000 years, and I don't dare to imagine that someone can cultivate both Confucianism and Taoism at the same time." When he spoke, his face was radiant, and he was quite complacent.

Seeing this, Xuanwu Zhenren smiled and said, "The Ice Lord is so interested. When Poor Dao saw the ice lord this time, how did he feel that the ice lord seemed to have escaped a lot, if outsiders didn't know, he was only the ice lord for twenty-eight years. ”

Bingque's face was cold, and he said, "Xuanwu Xiao'er, you have the courage to see how long, you dare to joke about this king?"

Xuanwu Zhenren hurriedly smiled and said: "Ice Lord don't be angry, the poor road is just telling the truth." Although the poor road is not as old as the ice master, he has a lot of experience in the world. Halfway through this, he stopped abruptly and said no more, just smiled at the ice sparrow.

How could Bingque not understand the meaning of his words, and said angrily: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful that this king has taken your soul." ”

Xuanwu Zhenren shook his head and smiled, and he really didn't dare to say anything more.

Bing Finch snorted softly, and then stopped. But thinking of the words of "twenty-eight years", I felt a snickering joy in my heart, but then I was terrified, and said secretly: "What's wrong with me?" She looked up at the road to the sky, only to see that Lin Yuehe had already reached the seventh layer of the "Earth Question", but Xiao Yi stopped at the ninth layer of the "Human Question", and couldn't help but say angrily: "Xuanwu, why is your test so unfair, so lenient to that ghost boy, but it makes Xiao Yi difficult?"

Xuanwu Zhenrendao: "The test of this path to heaven is exactly the same, but their personal choices are different, which leads to different difficulties. However, the more difficult it is in the front, the easier it is in the back, and the easier it is in the front, the more difficult it is in the back. ”

Bingque nodded thoughtfully, and asked again, "How long will it take for them all to pass the test?"

Xuanwu is humane: "Slow is three or five years, fast is half a year!"

"What?" the ice sparrow suddenly let out an exclamation. (To be continued.) )
