Chapter 167: Yaochi Banquet
Haotian couldn't help but be stunned, and then laughed and said: "Okay, this is naturally no problem, but Senior Brother Daowu is really still Senior Brother Daowu, I have been envious of your surname for a long time, but unfortunately, I really can't learn it." ”
Zhuang Xiong pursed his lips and said: "Do you think I'm free, so in comparison, I think you are restricted? Then my sin is great, stop, I said, let's not talk about this issue now, you have such a big family business, don't fool me with some defective products, and I came to you this time to find something to do, just said it together." ”
Haotian nodded, and hurriedly arranged for someone to prepare the banquet, and arranged for someone to call Yaochi, and then turned around and said: "I don't know what Senior Brother Daowu came to me this time? As long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse, although Senior Brother said that it is, if it is not very complicated, I can arrange it to prepare now." ”
Zhuang Xiong thought about it, but he didn't think it was a big deal to send a few people to Xuanyuan, so he said it casually.
After hearing this, Haotian smiled and said: "Of course this is no problem, even if the senior brother doesn't come to it, I am also about to find a reason to help, of course, senior brother, don't misunderstand what plans I have for the human race, the human race has a large group of people like you to take care of, I am not crazy, it's just that Yao Chi and I both feel that since the human race is about to be the protagonist of heaven and earth, I am afraid that there will be no shortage of human resources in this heavenly court in the future, it is always good to make friends in advance, and also leave a good reputation among the human race, so that my heavenly court can develop." ”
Zhuang Xiong nodded and said, "In this way, it is indeed a win-win situation, a very good idea." ”
Hao Tianqi said: "Senior brother, you didn't think of the back?"
Zhuang Xiong disdainfully: "Where else is there anything behind, it is just to develop and grow, to inflate your ambitions, but unfortunately it is only in vain after all, even if your power is great, what can you do with the saints? Give you face, you have the qualifications to play, if you don't give you face, who cares who you are? How similar are your current thoughts to Di Jun? The flood has been developing for so long, and after several catastrophes, do you think you can still find as many masters as Di Jun? Even if you find it, what can you do?"
Haotian couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard it, and only sighed for a long time and said: "Senior brother is right, it seems that Yaochi and I are really confused, but what Senior Brother said is really too polite, it is enough to choke people, if it weren't for me being sober, I really don't know how I would react." ”
Zhuang Xiong smiled: "It's not that you don't know my surname, and you have never been polite when you talk to Lao Tzu, that is, Daozu, after all, you are a teacher, and there is still respect that you should have, and others, who am I polite with? ”
Haotian couldn't help but wipe a handful of cold sweat secretly, and said with a dry smile: "What Senior Brother said is, I'll go and see if Yaochi is okay, and by the way, tell the person who arranged the banquet, don't let them fool around, Senior Brother, you wait a while, I'll come when I go." ”
Zhuang Xiong opened his eyes blankly, but saw that Haotian had left in a hurry, and he had been taken to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall unconsciously, so he couldn't help rolling his eyes, jumped off the back of the vegetable gang gently, and said casually: "Go find a place to rest yourself, just don't make trouble." And Zhuang Xiong looked at the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.
However, to be honest, Zhuang Xiong really didn't feel anything about this golden thing, especially looking at the chair that belonged to Haotian above, he couldn't help but shake his head, he really felt that the position was cold, and there were indeed many restrictions, and the most important thing was that it was destined to be a lot of trouble in this position, and he couldn't get out.
Zhuang Xiong is just a boring nap time, the wine banquet has been prepared, since it will not be arranged in this Lingxiao Treasure Palace, but Yao Chi knew that it was Dao Wu who came, and asked to arrange the wine banquet in Yao Chi, thinking about it, I still know that Zhuang Xiong prefers natural scenery, otherwise he will not visit the flood so many times, but Yao Chi is full of spiritual flowers and plants, and there are countless spiritual fruits, which makes Zhuang Xiong love it.
Haotian led Zhuang Xiong all the way into Yaochi, and heard that Yaochi complained first: "Senior Brother Daowu, you are so unkind, you have left so many traces in this Yaochi, if it weren't for the nicks of Changxi and others in the back, wouldn't others still think that you had secretly visited my Yaochi?"
Zhuang Xiong's mind flashed, but he remembered it, and couldn't help laughing: "This thing is really a misunderstanding, when the heavenly court was not born, I once climbed Buzhou Mountain, all the way to here, I saw that the scenery of Yaochi is good, so I left inscriptions in many places, and I never thought that someone would reply." ”
Haotian said with a smile: "Senior Brother Daowu didn't know if he would become a saint when he couldn't climb Zhou Mountain, but the first one to come to this heavenly court was not moved at all in the face of the temptation of the honorable position, which is really admirable." ”
Where would Zhuang Xiong say that he was not the first to find out, but he really wouldn't be moved, and he really couldn't stand that position, so he smiled: "It's not that I haven't thought about that position, it's just that everything in the world has a problem of fit, do you think my surname fits this position? If I sit in this position, what will things look like?"
Haotian couldn't help but cover his mouth and snicker when he thought of Zhuang Xiong's appearance of sitting on top of the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.
Zhuang Xiong shook his head helplessly, but looked down, although the banquet had been arranged, it was obvious that Haotian had arranged a lot of good things, although there were more than a dozen plates on the table, but there was still a steady stream of Gong E adding up, and there were all kinds of strange things on the table.
Although poor Zhuang Xiong has the name of a foodie, he only collected some spiritual roots and strange fruits in the early days, even if it is just a desire to eat meat, it has not yet been realized, at this time, he saw the things on the table, and he couldn't help but look stunned, and most of them didn't know, but where is the wine and where is the meat Zhuang Xiong still knows, and he can't care about being polite to Haotian at the moment, and he throws off his cheeks and eats first, like a ghost who has been starving for ten thousand years and is reincarnated, and Haotian Yaochi is dumbfounded.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhuang Xiong gradually slowed down and began to chat with the two, and the topic gradually unfolded, Na Haotian was not stupid, and after a while, the topic was brought back to the question that the two talked about on the road.
Haotian said: "Senior Brother Daowu, I also told Yaochi what you said just now, and we all realized the mistake in it, fortunately there was no big mistake, and I ask Senior Brother to solve our doubts." ”
Zhuang Xiong casually drank a little wine and said, "Although you have realized it, you obviously haven't realized it yet, at least you don't clearly understand what serious consequences it will cause if you continue." ”
Yao Chi smiled: "Although we haven't thought deeply about this, I think that in the end, I am afraid that we will follow the old path of God Jun, right?"
Zhuang Xiong shook his head and said: "At this time, it is different from Di Jun, you don't have enough strength, but you want to challenge the position of the saint, you must be left and right, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight in the cracks, and the one who competes with me in the east must be the two saints of the west, what you want to challenge is the three Qings, you need to cooperate with the two saints of the west, even if you don't think about it now, you will always think of this in the future." ”
Zhuang Xiong frowned slightly, gently put down the wine jug, and continued: "But have you thought about the consequences? If you win, will the two sages of the West connive at you? Moreover, if the West has established another Buddhism, it is already considered a betrayal of the Dao Sect, if you win, it will be a break from the inheritance of the Dao Ancestor, you are the boy of the Dao Ancestor, and it is because of the words of the Dao Ancestor that you have today's position, if you break the inheritance of the Dao Ancestor, have you ever thought about what the consequences will be? What will the world say about you?"
Haotian couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and Yaochi was also solemn, obviously he really didn't expect this.
Zhuang Xiong said with a smile: "When Emperor Jun was the emperor, the entire Heavenly Court was just a matter of one family, but you are different, you sit in this position, there are too many things involved, even if you fail, but what is the attitude of Sanqing towards you? You will only be more restricted, your strength is not good, whether you win or lose, you are destined to be miserable, if you take this step, no matter what the result of others is, your result will already be doomed." ”
Haotian and Yaochi hurriedly got up, bowed to Zhuang Xiong, and said solemnly, "Thank you senior brother for your advice." Otherwise, we almost made a big mistake, after all, we are also the disciples of Dao Ancestor, if something like that really happens, what face will we have to see Dao Ancestor in the future?"
Zhuang Xiong smiled: "It's not too late to notice now, I really don't know what your brains are used for, just by virtue of our friendship, just by virtue of my friendship with Sanqing and other great powers, others will always give you some face, as long as you don't provoke others, who will not get along with you? ”
Haotian Yaochi glanced at each other, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "After hearing what Senior Brother said, I know that we have indeed become mediocre people." ”
Yao Chi frowned and said: "But senior brother, for some reason, even if I know that I am wrong and know the seriousness of the matter, I always feel a little difficult to get over this hurdle in my heart, and I always feel that this is a restriction and a threat, can senior brother teach me?"
Zhuang Xiong said disdainfully: "If you want to solve the problem, you must first know the cause of the disease, you are purely asking for trouble, you feel that your background is not as good as others, your cultivation time is not as good as others, your cultivation is not as good as others, and your cultivation is not as good as others, and you used to be a child, and now you are sitting in such a high position all of a sudden, you always feel that others look down on you, only because of the face of the Taoist ancestor to listen to your words, you are not convinced, you want to rely on your own ability to do something, prove yourself." ”
Zhuang Xiong finally concluded: "To put it simply, you feel pressure, a little inferiority, and insecurity because you only see those excellent people, so you want to develop forces to protect yourself, and there is an unreal sense of suddenly reaching a high position, ambition is inflated, and the two extreme development of inferiority complex and ambition make you lose your mind." ”
Haotian Yaochi couldn't help but glance at each other in astonishment, nodded, and said, "What Senior Brother said is true." But I don't know if my brother has a solution? ”
