Chapter 518: Cause and Effect Balance
Who? Who in the martial arts hall has reached the peak of virtual realm and has the strength of the peak of martial arts? Everyone is guessing and wants to know who this person is.
On the ninth day after Zhang Zhenbian and Monk Kuchan joined together, two figures soared into the sky from Kuchan Temple and disappeared at the end of the sky.
Gongsun Qi and Yang Ziyang benefited a lot from receiving Zhang Zhenbian's guidance and experiencing the mystery of entering Hedao up close. Shortly after Zhang Zhenbian left Kuchan Monk, Gongsun Qi also left Kuchan Temple and returned to Jiangwu Mountain. Yang Ziyang
It was the second thing arranged by Sun Qi when he went to the office.
Restricted by the three-year agreement, they could not take action within the confines of Kyushu. Zhang Zhenbian and Monk Kuchan had no use staying in Kuchan Temple. They wanted to pursue a more powerful realm. Only by leaving Kyushu could they fight with others.
There were rumors in the world that Zhang Zhenbian and the Kuchan monk were together. When the two left the Kuchan Temple without knowing where to go, a skinny monk stepped on the clouds and arrived at the Kuchan Temple. Soon, the sound of preaching was heard in the Kuchan Temple.
Not long after Zhang Zhenbian and Monk Kuchan left, this monk occupied the magpie's nest. It really made people curious as to who could be so bold.
Gongsun Qi received the news as soon as the monk preached in Kuchan Temple. He sent a master from the hall to investigate and found that it was a Hedao master. He probably knew who it was. Gongsun Qi came to Kuchan Temple in person to have a look.
Sure enough, he is the Smiling Buddha without a monk, but with his current appearance, the nickname Smiling Buddha no longer suits him.
Soon, the Jiangwu Hall announced that the powerful Master Wuseng of Hedao was preaching at Kuchan Temple, and anyone could go and listen to the lecture.
Yang Ziyang walked north through the snow to carry out the second task Gongsun Qi asked her to do. Within two days, she had arrived at the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum.
Beside the imperial mausoleum, three octogenarian men were doing meaningless things, sweeping snow, collecting firewood, and weaving baskets, day after day, as if these things would never be finished.
Yang Ziyang could not feel the power of the three old people, nor could she see the difference between them. In her eyes, these three old people were just ordinary people, but Yang Ziyang knew that they were not ordinary, definitely not ordinary people.
Yang Ziyang's awakened talent is definitely not something that can see through the power of Hedao, who has an unknown level of cultivation, nor can she discern the depth after practicing the Occultation of Stars and Sunset Technique for two months.
Standing in front of the small courtyard surrounded by fences, Yang Ziyang said: "Hello, seniors, I'm here to see Sister Xiaoting."
The old man sweeping the snow slowly raised his head and glanced at Yang Ziyang, then lowered his head and continued to sweep the snow. With the speed at which he was sweeping the snow, the snow he swept away was not as much as the falling snowflakes.
Gongsun Qiyou told her the situation. Yang Ziyang knew that Song Xiaoting was buried underground in this courtyard, but no matter how she sensed it, she could not feel Song Xiaoting's existence, and she could not tell where this courtyard was different.
Pushing open the fence, Yang Ziyang walked into the yard: "Senior, can I take sister Xiaoting away?"
The old man sweeping the snow slowly turned his head and said slowly: "She will die if you take her away."
Of course Yang Ziyang knew that Song Xiaoting could not leave here. Gongsun Qiyou told her that Song Xiaoting needed to rely on the power of three old men to stay alive. He pondered for a moment and said: "Senior, what do you think the meaning of life is? Is this kind of survival meaningful?"
"The meaning of life is continuation." The old man clearing the snow said slowly.
Since the birth of human beings, they have been working hard to extend their lives. Men have sex with women, and they have fought and killed each other, all in order to better extend their own ethnic group and extend the length of their lives. The extension of life is the imprint engraved at the bottom of the genes. Anyone
No one can escape this shackles.
In order to seek immortality, ascetics explore and peer into the mysteries between heaven and earth. Ordinary people cannot live forever, so they can only continue their will through their descendants. Whether they are ascetics or ordinary people, everything they do is to extend life and continue life.
will.
"Her existence is the need for balance." The old man who was weaving baskets continued.
Balance? Balance what?
Song Xiaoting became in her current situation because she was severely injured by the Ji family. It was the devil who ordered the demon envoys to be brought here to save her life. Three old men took action and used Qin Ling's earth energy to keep Song Xiaoting alive. Three parties were involved in this.
Song Xiaoting's only role in balancing the three parties is her identity, the identity of Demon Lord Chu Xiang's wife, not her person. In other words, Chu Xiang is the balance point between the Ji family, Demon Lord and the fifth family, but this
The point is how to balance the relationship between the three parties. Even Gongsun Qi can't figure it out, let alone Yang Ziyang.
Behind the Ji family is Kunlun, and behind the fifth family is Emperor Qin. The real three-party power is Kunlun. The struggle between Emperor Qin and the Demon King is the check and balance point of these three parties.
"What is balance?" Yang Ziyang asked, asking if he didn't understand.
"Cause and effect." The old man weaving baskets said, telling the answer without any secret, but Yang Ziyang still couldn't understand the answer.
If Gongsun Qi were at the scene, he would understand that the old man's words were not meant for Yang Ziyang, but for him.
Although Yang Ziyang didn't understand what cause and effect was, she vaguely knew that the old man's answer was not for her.
The first time Chu Xiang and Song Xiaoting came into contact with people from the Fifth Family was in Qishan. The origin of the matter started in Qishan, when Chu Xiang drew his sword to attack the phoenix bird on the sycamore tree.
After contacting Gongsun Qi's instructions to her, Yang Ziyang said: "The first time Brother Xiang and Sister Xiaoting intervened in the dispute between you and the Ji family was in Qishan. Is it a coincidence?"
The cause and effect of Chu Xiang and the Ji family originated from Qishan. If we talk about balance, then this is the starting point of balance. This is Yang Ziyang's understanding.
"There's a certain destiny somewhere," said the old man sweeping the snow.
This is an excuse, meaning that they do not deny that they were the ones planning it.
"Fengming Qishan, the shadow of the tower appearing on the sycamore tree is the same as the one at the entrance of Kunlun. Is it a coincidence?" Yang Ziyang continued to ask.
This question was specially asked by Gongsun Qi.
"Ji Cheng used the art of transformation to move the Kunlun Tower to Qishan. Xiaoyan didn't know what happened, so he attacked the Kunlun Tower and instead helped the Ji family to open the Kunlun exit." The old man weaving baskets said.
The answer was shocking, but Yang Ziyang didn't know the specific situation at that time. Gongsun Qi asked her to ask this question, so she just asked it, not knowing what the thrilling confrontation was.
The old man said that the people of the fifth family were completely defeated in the battle with the Ji family in Qishan. Not only did they lose a lot of manpower, they were also used to help the Ji family open the Kunlun exit, causing the people of Kunlun to cross the border. This is
The reason why Kunlun appeared in the world after the Battle of Qishan.
"Why didn't you stop him?" Yang Ziyang asked, she didn't understand.
"The number of days is like this." said the old man clearing the snow.
It's the number of days again. Yang Ziyang can't figure out what this number of days is. This question needs Gongsun Qi to think about.
"Qin Shihuang is really not dead?" Yang Ziyang asked.
"There is life, and the great road has its own signs. There is no death, so why count thousands of years." said the old man who was weaving baskets.
He couldn't understand the words again. Although he didn't understand, Yang Ziyang already had the answer in his heart.
"You have set up such a big situation. Brother Xiang is trapped in the Pirate Alley. Aren't you going to do any rescue?" Yang Ziyang said. This sentence is not what Gongsun Qi wants to ask, but what Yang Ziyang wants to ask himself. It is also Yang Ziyang who came here.
The question I most want to ask.
"It can't be saved," said the old man who was weaving baskets.
Although she had the expected answer, Yang Ziyang still couldn't help but feel sad. As long as she could save Chu Xiang, she would do it at any cost. She would not give up even if there was a chance of saving Chu Xiang.
"Senior, do you know the art of occulting the stars and setting the sun?" Yang Ziyang asked.
The old man sweeping the snow was holding a broom with an old smile on his face. He understood what Yang Ziyang meant and said: "People of our age have nothing to fear."
The Occultation of Stars and Sunset Technique is an assassination technique, passed down from Demon Ancestor Yin Lingzi. Yang Ziyang asked him if he knew it. It was a hint to let the old man know that she practiced Occultation of Stars and Sunset Technique. It was a threat. Obviously, the old man understood what Yang Ziyang was implying.
Meaning, you may also guess that the technique comes from the Demon Lord.
Indeed, at their age, there is nothing to be afraid of. Living is just a matter of noon, and death will come sooner or later.
It was a useless threat. Faced with people of this age, one should have some respect. Yang Ziyang said respectfully: "It was the junior who took offense."
"Her injuries can be cured by the Demon Lord." The old man sweeping the snow lowered his head and continued to sweep the snow.
The Demon Lord can save Song Xiaoting. If you go to the Demon Lord, you can save Song Xiaoting. Yang Ziyang's occultation of the stars and setting sun technique was sent by the Demon Lord. If Yang Ziyang goes and asks the Demon Lord, the matter will most likely be solved, but he will definitely have to pay a price.
This is the old man's plan, to use Yang Ziyang to contact the Demon Lord, thereby introducing the Demon Lord into the situation. Of course, Yang Ziyang cannot understand this level of conspiracy, and he does not even know that these things involve him.
