Chapter Forty-Eight: Argument, Climb or Descend?
"Born of God, born of man. People are born with desires, and this is the way of nature. To forcibly abstain from human desires is undoubtedly to put the cart before the horse. Taoist priests want people to be pure-hearted and have few desires, and the powerful want people to enjoy their lives, so to speak, they all want others to quit their desires, but what about themselves? Taoist priests want to chase immortality, this is the greatest greed! The powerful want to enjoy glory and wealth, this is the most **** desire! Speaking of which, they all want others to abstain from sex and satisfy their own selfish desires, how selfish, how ridiculous......
"The five gods are born and correspond to others! The five gods are blessed and everyone is equal! We don't have to be pure-hearted, we don't need to be cautious, we don't have to blindly tolerate it, what do we want? We are open to the heart, enjoy ourselves! The whole world, the sea and the sky are the kingdoms of the five gods, as long as you believe in the people of the five gods, the five gods will provide them with everything they need!"
"People should not be born to suffer, but should enjoy their due well-being! Believe in the five gods, release yourself, become a god, and take the gods with you!"
Demagogic words are blessed with spells and become more convincing.
The valley where tens of thousands of people were reunited, there were no breaths except for the rich and seductive voice of the preaching. If it weren't for the blinking, nodding and praying silently, the whole valley would be like a gathering of the dead.
After a while, people began to get excited. However, the audience was still silent, and the people were quietly high-spirited, orderly and excited, and the hideous expressions formed a strange contrast with the silent cheers. There is nothing more unreasonable than this.
Just when the silence reached the extreme, a majestic voice began to sing. With the high-spirited rhythm, the baptism crowd began to echo, and gradually, the whole valley began to reverberate with a bewitching song. However, even Li Hong has to admit that there is a power in this song, and it seems that the hearts of tens of thousands of people are connected with this song.
"If it's really a demon sect, the ability to incite people's hearts is not trivial!" Qu Yang's strange face showed her usual disdain, and she took a sip and scolded fiercely, to show that she was not bewitched by the singing.
However, the red silk and wrestling piano beside him were stupid, and seemed to be fascinated by the singing.
"Hey, you two! aren't you enchanted?" Qu Yang pushed the two of them. When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but say, "This song is very good!"
Hongsilk blushed angrily: "I was fascinated by this singing! Damn Liu Man, he doesn't know where he slipped away now?"
"Where did he slip away? He must have found a place to hide! In case of a fight, he would take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters!" Hirosawa said coldly not far away.
Whack Qin glared at him and said in a low voice: "This person is really shameless, just come along, and like to say some cool things!"
Red Silk snorted coldly: "Who made you so polite to him before?! So that he dares to inch in now! I don't know who allowed him to get so close to us!"
"Shhhh
Guangze was silent, turned around and disappeared in the dark, and he didn't know where he went.
At the southernmost end of the valley is a vast flat area. On the flat ground, there is a magnificent palace complex, distributed in the shape of a pentagram. At each apex of the pentagram there is a high platform, on which are majestic statues. It's just that the appearance of this statue is really weird, even if you are as well-informed as Li Hong, you can't tell why.
"Uncle Shi, what is this statue?" Guangling opened his mouth and closed his mouth to call Li Hong Uncle Shi, although Li Hong felt that he had suffered a little loss, he still acquiesced.
"To be honest, I don't know. This Body God Sect is full of weirdness, saying that it is the inheritance of the Demon Gate, but many of the forbidden settings in the Sect are Dao Sect techniques. It is said that it is the inheritance of the side branch of the Daomen, but it is good at demagoguery!
"Uncle Shi, although this Body God Sect is good at confusing people's minds, what the missionary said just now is not completely unreasonable!"
Li Hong smiled: "Dao and demons have the same origin, and the basic views of the two sects on the supreme principles of heaven and earth are actually very similar. They are like people climbing and descending on the same mountain, one going up from the bottom and the other going down from the top. When they don't reveal their whereabouts, but only describe the scenery they see along the way, the narrative and the description are probably very similar, how do you know who is climbing and who is descending?
Guang Ling said: "I have been taught! This is like my brother and I, although we have the same root and the same origin, but unfortunately the opportunities are different, who is the devil and who is the way, in fact, only look at the endgame!"
Li Hong smiled again: "The endgame is important, but the difference between Dao and Demon is not victory or defeat at all. People in the world are cloudy-eyed, often judging by victory and defeat, and need to know that there is heaven above victory and defeat, and the high and low are different, and they should not be confused!"
Guangling waved again: "I have been taught again! It's just that I'm thinking that the people who go up the mountain will eventually reach the top one day, and then the people who go up and down will change each other, and the front and back will be reversed, so how should we deal with them? The people who go up the mountain become the people who go down the mountain, so are the people who go down the mountain still the people who go up the mountain?"
Li Hong was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart: "This Guangling has a bit of wisdom. ”
Guangling paused and continued: "This is like the difference between yesterday and today. If one day my temperament changes dramatically and my appearance changes dramatically, am I still myself?"
"In the eyes of mortals, no matter how a person changes, it seems that he cannot get rid of his true nature. However, there are not a few cultivators who have lived for more than a thousand years, and the self before a thousand years ago and the self after a thousand years are very different in terms of personality and knowledge, so the gap between them is probably not smaller than that of two completely different people, right?"
Guangling chattered endlessly, but it caused Li Hong's heart. Li Hong has been reborn for a total of nine lifetimes, and his current self is indeed very different from the first life in terms of knowledge and personality. If it weren't for the immortality of the gods, then he should really be a combination of nine people. Where exactly does this line go?
Seeing that Li Hong didn't speak, Guangling became more and more proud, thinking that even if the other party was of high seniority, but limited by his age, his knowledge was shallow after all, and now he was shocked by his own mysterious words.
"Shhhh
The two hid outside the palace at the northernmost point of the pentagram. Because almost everyone in the valley went to the square to the east to listen to the lectures, they had to be idle for a while.
Guang Ling pinched a trick and immediately hid his figure with Li Hong.
The two men in black robes, who seemed to be making routine rounds, approached without finding anything abnormal, turned around and walked west.
After a while, Li Hong and Guangling appeared, and Li Hong stroked his palms and smiled: "Your words just now reminded me. If a person's appearance changes too much, it is indeed not easy to recognize! The same is true of the ancient gods!"
"What did Uncle Shi say?"
"Did your grandfather tell you about the history of the Daomen?"
"Roughly said, but hundreds of thousands of years ago, I can't remember those details. ”
"Let me ask you, when the Dao Gate was first established, how was the world?"
Guang Ling thought for a moment, and pointed to the statue in front of him with his hand: "Uncle Shi is saying that the monster in this statue is an ancient god?"
Li Hong smiled: "You are really smart." At the beginning of the Daomen, that is, at the beginning of the flood, there were many ancient gods born in the chaos of heaven and earth. Do you think this statue doesn't look like a [Chasing Clan]?"
Guangling frowned, tried to recall, and then shook his head: "I don't know, I don't remember what the [Chasing Rong Clan] looks like." ”
Li Hong held his hand a little: "You see that the statue is actually a woman, with a bulging chest on her chest, and she is half human and half leopard, which is actually the characteristic of the [Chasing Rong Clan]. It's just that the leopard shape of the lower half of the body has changed a lot, and the face has also changed from the legendary round face of the silver plate to a narrow and thin face, so at first glance, the two are not touched, but they are actually faintly related. ”
"I see, then the other four statues should also be ancient gods?"
Li Hong nodded: "It should be so!"
"Uncle Shi, what should we do next?"
"Since you're here, naturally you have to go to the central [Wuji Palace] to have a look...... How do you stealth?"
Guangling's face turned red: "So-so, if there is no master, then I may be able to hide it! Our Sumeru Mountain is a sword cultivator, and we are good at fighting, these clever things, if you don't hide it from your uncle, it is indeed worse." ”
Li Hong pondered for a moment: "Then you wait for me here, I'll come when I go!" Just as he was about to leave, he chuckled lightly in mid-air: "Dare to break into my Body God Sect Five Divine Palace! Where do you want to fall?"
