Chapter Fifty-Three: Reciprocating Each Other with Words and Words
"Jiutian!" stood silently for an hour, and Jing Baili, who had been watching the mountain from afar, finally spoke, and he called out to his eldest disciple Meng Jiutian, his voice was as loud as ever, but Meng Jiutian felt a different kind of cordiality.
"Disciple is here!" Meng Jiutian didn't know what the hidden cordiality in Jing Baili's tone meant, so he didn't think too much, so he immediately replied respectfully, and at the same time, his gaze also raised slightly from the changing clouds under his feet, projecting on the back of Jing Baili, and all the thoughts in his eyes disappeared, only a deep one, waiting for Jing Baili to say next.
After screaming, he didn't turn around, but raised his head slightly, put his gaze into the distance, and then asked, "How many cultivators have arrived at Suiyi Mountain now?"
Meng Jiutian smiled humbly and replied, "Master, this matter has always been handled by Senior Brother Ling, and I saw that he handled it so well, restrained so many cultivators so well, and got along with each other peacefully and orderly, so I simply lazy and didn't ask more." In the end, it is still the master who is wise, Senior Brother Ling usually does not show the dew, but at the critical moment, he has such courage and ability, which makes all the senior brothers very surprised! Recently, they have been praising Senior Brother Ling in private for his ability, and Master knows people in a subtle way!"
Meng Jiutian's words were kind and intimate, and it was completely what a loyal and filial disciple said in front of his master, showing his bearing and mind as a senior brother, so that people couldn't hear the true thoughts in his heart at all, but he had already hated Ji Jiuling to the extreme, and he resented Jingbaili to the extreme.
"Acquaintance?" didn't seem to be happy, but a little emotional, and said, "As a teacher, he is now a cultivator who knows the sky, but when it comes to knowing people, the will of heaven can be known, and people's hearts are unpredictable!"
Meng Jiutian was shocked in his heart, and there seemed to be something in his words, could it be that he noticed something, just when he was surprised. I saw a hundred miles of surprise again, stretched out his hand and pointed to the mountain. "But although the human heart is unpredictable, it is also very easy to know. You look at those cultivators, no matter what thoughts they have in their hearts, in front of this Heavenly Providence Flower that is about to appear. All of them have been revealed. You can't hide anything!"
Meng Jiutian breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Jing Baili might not have said this to himself, but seemed to mean something else, so he asked, "Why did Master suddenly feel this way? Could it be that he was still worried about the matter of the Heavenly Providence Flower." Since this matter is ...... Dai Futian has already announced to the entire cultivation world that he has decided to intervene, presumably by gathering the power of the eleven sects of the Dao Sect, it should be able to stabilize the situation, the cultivators will not have too many fights, and the Lei Sect will not be involved, Master, what are you worried about?"
Jing Baili sighed and said, "Nine Heavens, you misunderstood, although the Heavenly Providence Flower is infinitely useful, after all, it is just a cherished elixir, even if you can achieve a master who knows the heavens and even escapes the heavens, what impact will it have on the cultivation world? What the teacher is worried about is not the matter of the Heavenly Providence Flower in front of you, but it is precisely the substitute for the Heaven in your mouth!"
Meng Jiutian was slightly surprised, and said, "Dai Futian, the disciple doesn't understand, why should the master worry about Dai Futian?"
Shocking Baili was silent, and only after a long time did he say: "Among my disciples, Yi Lin'er has the highest comprehension, so her cultivation is the fastest to improve; As for Jiutian, although your comprehension is not as good as Lin'er's, and your physique is not as good as Jiuling, your future cultivation will definitely be inferior to the two of them. But you are better than being thoughtful, good at doing things, and to tell the truth you are the talent of the suzerain. ”
When Meng Jiutian heard this, he suddenly had doubts in his heart, because a long time ago, he announced in front of many people in the Lei Sect that he would pass on the position of the sect master of the Lei Sect to Ji Jiuling in the future, which was not only known and accepted by the Lei Sect, but also by almost the entire cultivation world. It was precisely because of this incident that Meng Jiutian had a grudge against Jing Baili, and finally secretly centrifuged. Now, what kind of purpose did Jing Baili suddenly say this in private at this time?
Of course, Meng Jiutian didn't dare to believe it, and said with a smile indifferently at the moment: "Master's evaluation of our senior brothers, it turns out that the disciple also agrees with it very much. At the beginning, I also felt that I was more suitable to be the sect master, so that Senior Brother Ling and Senior Sister Feng Lin could put aside their chores and concentrate on cultivation, so that the three of us could work together to carry forward the Lei Sect. Later, the master decided to pass on the position of the sect master to Senior Brother Ling, and the disciple felt a little strange at first, but he thought that since it was the master's decision, there must be a reason for it, so he also thought about how to do his best to assist Senior Brother Ling.
This time, the master handed over the task of stabilizing these cultivators to Senior Brother Ling, and the disciple still faintly felt that something was wrong in private? For fear that Senior Brother Ling would not be able to cope with these situations, if he thought about the long-term future, he felt that it seemed that Senior Brother Ling should go to meet Dai Futian. Settle the cultivators, and leave this kind of chores to me, as a senior brother, to help him take care of it. But judging from the talent of Senior Brother Ling in front of him, the disciple felt that even if he changed the disciple to do this, it would not be possible to do this as well as Senior Brother Ling. Only then did I understand that the master chose Senior Brother Ling as the sect master, because Senior Brother Ling not only cultivated to an infinite extent, even if it was to deal with the affairs of the sect, it was also the absolute choice of the sect master. When the disciple thinks of this verse these days, he can't help but feel very ashamed!"
What he said was true or false, not only did he not say that he had absolutely no intention of coveting the position of the sect master, but he also seemed to express what he thought and thought in his heart, and what he said was extremely sincere. The reason why he said this was naturally because he didn't know why Jing Baili said such things to himself for no reason, whether it was sincere or tentative. If it is sincere, it is hypocritical to say this at this time. If it is a temptation, it is even more likely that Jingbaili has already doubted himself, and he has to deal with it more carefully.
Sure enough, when Jing Baili heard this, a hint of relief appeared on his face, and he said: "Jiutian, you can think like this, it is worthy of the eldest disciple trained by my own hands, which really makes me feel very gratified." But then again, I'm not afraid to sue you, I actually wanted to make you the next sect master of the Lei Sect at the beginning. But for some reason, I changed my original intention as a teacher!"
Meng Jiutian sneered in his heart, but there was a look of great surprise on his face, and said, "Before, Master said that he was worried about Dai Futian, and Master decided to pass on the position of Sect Master to Senior Brother Ling not long after he took over the position of Dai Futian, could it be that there is some connection between the two?"
Jing Baili turned around at this time and glanced at Meng Jiutian, his appearance was rough, with a full beard, but his mind was extremely delicate, and he smiled faintly: "As a teacher, I said that you are cautious, and you will be able to sense the end of everything immediately." That's right, although it wasn't directly because of Senior Brother Yuan, but it did have a lot to do with him if he changed his mind and decided to pass on the position of sect master to Jiuling. Originally, I came to see you because you were able to handle the affairs of the sect in an orderly manner, but now the situation has changed, and the teacher wants to choose a person who can break through to the highest realm of supernatural cultivation, practice the highest and strongest, and be the most able to protect the Lei Sect. Only such a head can protect the Lei Sect to survive the next catastrophe of heaven and earth. ”
Meng Jiutian was so shocked that he took a step back and said, "The Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth? Could it be that the Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, which Di Xuantian had already encountered, was really imminent and about to happen? Regarding this, didn't Master strictly order us not to talk about it before, nor to spread rumors wantonly?"
Shocking Baili put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and said: "Di Xuantian cultivates the Taishang Xuanmiao Sutra, and has the art of pushing life, and is known as the first Taoist door to push life throughout the ages." Since he said that there is a great tribulation of heaven and earth, how can it be nonsense? I restrained you in the past just because I was afraid of causing turmoil in the cultivation world and affecting your state of mind in cultivation. Whether or not the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth will happen is different from your cultivation after all. ”
Meng Jiutian was puzzled and said: "Then what does this have to do with Dai Futian? The disciple remembers that a few years ago, the Earth Sect Han Master and Uncle Han vigorously supported Master Yuan to take the position of Forget the Love Heaven, and at that time, it was the Master and the Fire Sect's Uncle Ziyan who were the first to express their support, and the other uncles and uncles of the other sects either ignored it or ignored it, which contributed to Master Yuan becoming the Acting Futian!"
Jing Baili took a deep breath and said: "At the time, it seemed that this matter had to be done, but in today's view, it may not have happened. At that time, the changes in Xuandu Mountain, everyone in the Daomen were worried, they could not be left without an owner, and they really needed someone to come out and preside over the overall situation. In addition, Senior Brother Han has always been admired by all the sect masters, and what he said naturally carried a lot of weight. Senior Brother Yuan is also humble and knowledgeable, concentrating on cultivation, and secretly conforming to the way of self-shepherding, he can slowly reorganize the door, and recover from the changes in Xuandu Mountain and the rumors of the Eight Ancestors of Yin and Yang.
But what even you didn't expect was that Senior Brother Yuan became a normal state after he ascended to the throne of forgetting his love and became a substitute for Futian, and he became extremely enthusiastic and active in all kinds of affairs, entering the Three Mountains, visiting the Buddha, spreading rumors of catastrophe and change, and inciting cultivators; These actions, of course, are based on some considerations, but such actions are only afraid that they will lead to the reopening of the demon war, and the catastrophe of heaven and earth will come ahead of schedule. ”
Meng Jiutian's heart shook when he heard this, and he couldn't help but show a look of shock again and again, and said, "It turns out that Master just now sighed, I don't know people, are you talking about Substitute Tianyuan Master?"
Shocked Baibai showed a gloomy look in his heart, neither nodded in affirmation, nor said in denial, but said: "As soon as the catastrophe of heaven and earth comes, heaven and earth will be born together, all kinds of strange numbers and fates will be born, and when the time comes, all kinds of disputes will be caused by various reasons among the cultivators, and there will be no more harmony and happiness now, and only a sufficiently superb cultivation can save the sect from all kinds of disasters, and now the heavenly will flower will come to the world, I am afraid that it will be a bad omen!"
