Chapter 34: The Great Trend, the Great Tribulation
In the room, Zhao Xuan looked at Lin Pingzhi who was placed on the bed by himself, and his sword eyebrows were tightly wrinkled together.
Ling Hu Chong and the others have already left, and Liu Zhengfeng should be able to see each other again at the Golden Basin Handwashing Conference, but he doesn't have to worry about them running away. The question he was most concerned about now was this Lin Pingzhi and what to do with the robe in his mind.
The thought of the robe made him angry. Yuan Shen Neizhao, came to the Xuanzhu space, reached out and grabbed the ball of light that he wanted to dodge, and said: "Boy, what do you say now, do I kill you, or do you kill yourself!"
The ball of light sneered, "That...... But don't be so violent. ”
"What do you say?"
"Ahem...... Actually, there is a reason why I let you take this robe, really, trust me, I don't lie to you!"
"Why? Tell me about it. Zhao Xuan didn't have to do anything with the ball of light, and his hand relaxed a little when he heard the words.
The light ball moved his body, tried to change a more comfortable position, and said, "Actually, after my research some time ago, I discovered a very important secret. The plot of this world is not unchangeable. Isn't there a saying in the novel that the small trend can be changed, and the big trend cannot be changed? In fact, the way of heaven is like this. As long as the overall situation remains unchanged, no matter how you toss, the 'providence' of this world can repair itself. As long as you don't kill the main key characters, Providence will never do anything to you." A very sincere tone.
Zhao Xuan wants to believe that it can have ghosts, just looking at the flashing light on its surface, he knows that it is pure nonsense, and he wants to evade responsibility. But I have to say that the statement of the light ball gave him a good idea: maybe this is really the case?
If it is really like the way of heaven in the novel of the flood wilderness, the plot of the world is also "small potential can be changed, big trend cannot be changed", and the qiē of that day Dragon Babu can be said to be accidental. And before he was able to rescue Lin Ping's family and kill Yu Renhao's little brothers, this qiē is also reasonable. As for Lin Zhennan and his wife being captured again, this may be the so-called "general trend".
So what exactly is the general trend? Ling Hu Chong and all the people and things that can influence Ling Hu Chong?
Zhao Xuan couldn't help but think of another word from the "general trend", that is, "catastrophe".
Taoists say that the destruction of heaven and earth is a catastrophe, and in the Romance of the Gods, the entire process of sealing the gods is a catastrophe.
Isn't it the same in today's world? Heaven strikes killing machines, moving stars and changing destinations, the earth sends killing machines, dragons and snakes rise to land, and people send killing machines, and heaven and earth repeat themselves. No matter what novel it is, if it depicts the world, the beginning of the whole novel is the beginning of the great calamity, and the end of the novel is the end of the great calamity. Some people become famous, which is equivalent to "becoming a god", and some people are obscure to everyone, that is, they will be turned into ashes under the catastrophe. And he came through himself, both in the calamity and outside the calamity, not controlled by God, but he could not go against God's will. It's like a chess piece that jumps off the chessboard, and although it is free, it does not have the ability to manipulate the chessboard. You can only watch the beings in the chessboard fight, but if you get involved in it, it's okay to mix things up casually, but if you try to change the situation, I'm afraid you can only be a handful of flying ashes under the catastrophe?
Zhao Xuan fell into deep thought.
The light ball over there couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that he was finally fooled by himself. With a slight struggle, he broke out of his hand, and quickly flew behind the jade statue to hide.
Zhao Xuan didn't have time to trouble the light ball at this time, if his inference was correct, then he could indeed act arbitrarily in the future, as long as he didn't touch the main line of the plot, he would basically not be in danger. But why do you feel a little unwilling? Is this really the case with the catastrophe and the general trend? No...... Definitely not!
Zhao Xuan's heart shook suddenly, and he said secretly: If the general trend only helps the protagonist succeed, then the general trend cannot become the general trend. "Generations of talented people have come out, each leading the way for hundreds of years", the general trend of the world has never served a certain person. And under the great calamity, all living beings suffer from it. The so-called protagonist is just the one who gets the most "potential" in the catastrophe. There will also be "power" in others. If you compare "potential" to luck, if you don't have luck in yourself, you won't have "potential". But what if you borrow the "momentum" yourself?
A strong brainstorming swept through Zhao Xuan's mind, and he vaguely felt that if he could borrow the "momentum", he might not be able to overpower the protagonist in luck. But after thinking about it, I feel that I have no luck, and I may not borrow "potential". If you act rashly, you are likely to be crushed into slag by the "momentum", but if you don't act, how can you prove that your assumptions are correct or not?
Suddenly! A thought flashed through his mind, but he immediately suppressed it again.
"Smiling Proud Jianghu is a novel that reflects political struggles, and the people in it are either for fame and profit, or they are constrained by the rules of 'famous and decent', or they are completely reckless and do all kinds of evil. There is only one Linghu Chong, a 'hermit' who pursues freedom and personality liberation, and he is the only one who has the most temper with himself. If you want to be realistic, it's still ......"
"Let's wait for the next world. The ball of light flew over and said for him.
Zhao Xuan raised his head: "Do you dare to come over?"
"Haven't you figured it out?"
"I figured it out, but the problem is that you haven't figured it out! Do you know how dangerous the evil sword spectrum is in my hands? If others can't find it, then I will be tantamount to destroying the 'general trend', and I will turn into ashes under the catastrophe?"
"That...... You can throw it away, didn't you say that Providence will fix it automatically? As long as you throw it away, it will go to the person who should go sooner or later, uh......" The more the ball of light said, the more bottomless it became.
Zhao Xuan glared at it fiercely, if it was really that easy, it would be easy to do. I'm afraid that his "variable" is not "recorded" in the "Heavenly Dao", and the "Heavenly Dao" didn't see it when he lost the sword spectrum, and accidentally the sword spectrum spread on the rivers and lakes, and was practiced by people who shouldn't be practicing, and then it affected the overall situation. In the end, don't you want to settle accounts with yourself?
Secretly decided to stuff the evil sword spectrum back to the Lin family's ancestral house when he had time, and Zhao Xuan turned his mind and left the Xuanzhu space.
"Uh-huh!" A soft snort came from the bed, and Lin Pingzhi woke up slowly. Zhao Xuan looked over, only to see Lin Pingzhi stunned for three or five seconds, suddenly turned over and got out of bed, and before he could stand firmly, he knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed to him: "Please take me as an apprentice!"
Zhao Xuan: "......"
I have to say that if you remove the evil deeds that Lin Ping committed later, he himself is actually a very respectable figure. It can almost be said that Jin Yong's willpower is the strongest one, and it is also the character with the most tragic fate.
If it weren't for the repeated exploitation and murder, he found out that he was an "item" that everyone in the rivers and lakes wanted to plunder, and he could only rely on a cruel and inhumane martial art. In the end, he may not grow into a brutal and ruthless extremist.
"Hurry up, you and I don't have a master-apprentice relationship. Zhao Xuan seemed to want to put the magic stick to the end, with a sanctimonious expression.
Lin Pingzhi was silent and continued to kowtow. In his heart, it seems that he has decided that his parents are dead, and Zhao Xuan has the ability to let him avenge his blood hatred.
Zhao Xuan sighed, and was about to tell him that his martial arts were actually weak, when at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door of the shopkeeper: "Guest officer, your lunch is here." ”
"Come in!" Zhao Xuan glanced outside.
The door opened, Xiao Er walked in with wine and food, put it on the table for Zhao Xuan, and then remembered something, and said: "By the way, master, just now there was a young man named Mi Weiyi outside, who claimed to be Liu Zhengfeng's disciple, and said that he wanted to send you an invitation." ”
"Oh?" Zhao Xuan's eyes lit up and said, "Where is he now?"
Xiao Er said: "If you go back to your master, he is still waiting outside, and he said that I should come in and pass it on." I wonder if you want to see him?"
See, of course I did! Zhao Xuanxin said that I pretended to be forced for a long time just to be able to participate in the Golden Basin Handwashing Conference, so the fool didn't see it! Quickly asked the shopkeeper to invite Mi Weiyi in.
Nami Weiyi is Liu Zhengfeng's second disciple, who is righteous and not afraid of power. was brought into the house by Xiao Er, held the post in both hands, handed it to Zhao Xuan, and said: "Zhao Gongzi, the family teacher invites you to participate in his golden basin handwashing conference, I hope you will come to Liu's mansion as soon as possible." Because no one knows Zhao Xuan's name, I have only heard him call himself "Zhao", and he calls himself a storyteller.
Zhao Xuan hurriedly invited Mi Weiyi to sit down, and said: "The name of Senior Liu has already been thunderous below, and I can't participate when I hear that he wants to wash his hands." Now that I have an invitation, it's a pity!"
"Zhao Gongzi is strict, the family teacher is still waiting for me to reply at home, Mi is inconvenient to stay for a long time, so I will leave!"
When he walked to the door, he seemed to be afraid that Zhao Xuan would forget, so he turned around and said, "There are two days left for the family teacher to wash his hands, I hope Zhao Gongzi can go as soon as possible." After a pause, he emphatically said: "If Zhao Gongzi can go today, it would be great." ”
Zhao Xuan secretly snickered in his heart, the content of the previous "storytelling" must have been heard by one of Liu Zhengfeng's disciples, and he sued Liu Zhengfeng, so Liu Zhengfeng was in such a hurry to invite him to go. Lang smiled at the moment: "How dare you let Senior Liu wait for a long time, let me clean up and disturb your mansion tonight." I only hope that Senior Liu will not blame him!"
Mi Weiyi's eyes lit up, and he said, "How dare you, how dare you!" The family teacher is waiting at home. With that, he took his leave and left.
Before leaving, he subconsciously glanced at Lin Pingzhi, who was still kneeling in the house, and wondered in his heart what kind of person this dirty-faced hunch was.
Lin Pingzhi didn't speak after Mi Weiyi came in, and waited for Mi Weiyi to leave, then kowtowed again and said: "Please Zhao Daxia take me as an apprentice and teach me to take revenge!"
Zhao Xuan was in a good mood and said, "You don't have to beg me in such a hurry, your parents may not be dead now......"
"Really?!" Zhao Xuan was interrupted by Lin Pingzhi before he could finish speaking.
I saw Lin Pingzhi get up, walk quickly to Zhao Xuan's side, reach out to grab his hand, and said incoherently: "You didn't lie to me? My parents are really still alive? Where are they? Daxia, you must know it, right?"
Zhao Xuan dodged Lin Pingzhi's "An Lushan's Claws", shook his head and said, "I don't know the specific location, but Yu Canghai has another purpose for catching your parents." Before the goal is achieved, think that your parents' lives will not be in danger. ”
"Yu Canghai still has another purpose, isn't it because I killed his son?" Lin Pingzhi said in surprise.
Zhao Xuan nodded and said, "Have you ever thought about what the Qingcheng faction is doing in Sichuan and Shu, and Yu Renyan traveled thousands of miles to Fuzhou? Besides, you killed Yu Renyan for only a few days, if Yu Canghai was far away in Qingcheng, how could he arrive so quickly? In fact, the reason why Yu Canghai attacked your family was just to get your family's "Sword Spectrum to Ward Off Evil Spirits"!"
"How...... How could this be!" Lin Pingzhi's expression was in a trance and muttered to himself.
