Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty Lectures
"Mr. Gong is really my confidant!"
Seeing Gong Manxue appearing in front of him from the street, Li Xiake was secretly shocked. When Gong Manxue came, he had no idea. It was not until he was talking that Li Xiake realized that he had arrived in front of him, and there was no sign of warning in advance!
He reluctantly suppressed his surprise and smiled at Gong Manxue, "Mr. Gong, you are right. I came to Baidi City this time and the first person I want to meet is you. I was inconvenient on the mountain just now. Now the family affairs of Master Lei have been handled properly. Li happened to have the opportunity to ask Lord Gong for help in person."
Gong Manxue lifted his beard and was very happy: "Brother Li walked with a tiger and was generous and heroic, and he had his own mountains and valleys in his heart. How dare I advise you? Let's discuss with each other if we have anything!"
He said this and looked at Lei Zhentian: "Master Lei Sect, let's stop with Ling Yuan's affairs. Although she is unfilial, she will not die. It's okay to punish her a little. But it's a bit wrong with your son-in-law. Her eyes are lewd and unrighteous, and her true energy is lonely and lonely. What she practices is not a decent martial arts and mental method at all. Instead, she is like a person from the Demon Sect. As a master of the generation, Master Lei Sect should be able to see that something is wrong, so there is no need to say too much, right?"
As the lord of the sect, Lei Zhentian also had extraordinary martial arts knowledge. When he abolished Bai Yuanlang's kung fu just now, he had already discovered something was wrong, but he was angry and never thought about it. Li Xiake was watching from the side, which made it difficult for him to calm down and explore this matter. Now he was awakened by Gong Manxue's words and was immediately surprised: "Demon Sect? Why is this kid involved with the Demon Sect again... Not bad! His internal strength is strange and cold, and it is indeed not the righteous heart method, and it is very similar to the internal strength of the Demon Sect Tianxie Dao!"
He suddenly reacted: "Mr. Gong, how did you know? Are you also a practitioner?"
Since Gong Manxue took over Baidi City more than 60 years ago, he has always formulated strategies and regulations to handle political affairs, so that his subordinates can do things according to the rules. There has never been and no need to show his personal martial arts cultivation in front of others. Even if there are occasional small riots or if bandits enter the country, there will naturally be gangs and sects of nearby large and small areas taking the initiative to take over at this time and assist Baidi City in capturing and eliminating the thugs. There is no need for Gong Manxue, the city lord, to take action personally.
Over the past sixty years, Gong Manxue has always been a Confucian scholar to the outside world. He has never gotten angry with others, nor has he ever attacked others. Over such a long time, everyone has formed a cognition in their minds:
That is, the old city lord Gong Manxue is just an ordinary Confucian disciple. He is a great master of his generation in terms of personal cultivation and literary and historical skills, but he is not a martial arts person.
But now Gong Manxue, who "does not understand cultivation", opened his mouth and told Bai Yuanlang's martial arts origin. This made him feel unstoppable. With his thoughts, he finally realized: "This old thing hides me so much! He is a true disciple of the Confucian school who came out of Chang'an Academy. How could he not understand cultivation? Why haven't I thought about this for so many years? What power is preventing me from thinking about this?"
The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became. He looked at Gong Manxue with extreme horror, "It's him! It must be him who was tampering with me!"
Gong Manxue still looked like a well-educated scholar. When he saw Lei Zhentian, he looked surprised and smiled: "Master Lei Sect, you'd better ask your son-in-law carefully and look carefully. Don't let him do anything bad, as the time comes, I'm afraid he won't end well."
Lei Zhentian said: "I'll go and ask him now! How many of you, say goodbye!"
He felt like there was a fire in his heart, and he bowed to Li Xiake and others, turned around and walked towards the mountain.
Li Xiake sighed and said, "The temper of the Lord Chong Lei Sect, Bai Yuanlang may not be able to get bored in his whole life!"
Gong Manxue smiled and said, "These disciples of the Demon Sect are afraid that the world will not be in chaos. Bai Yuanlang was locked up on the mountain by Lei Zhentian, which is a blessing for him and others."
Li Xiake smiled and said, "Aren't you curious about what they are planning?"
Gong Manxue sighed: "It's nothing more than planning the thousand-year foundation of Tianlei Mountain. I guess the disciples of the Demon Sect have taken a fancy to the prosperity of my Baidi City. They want to secretly control Tianlei Mountain and quietly develop their power. When the time is ripe, they will naturally replace me, the city lord."
He shook his head and smiled, "The former disciples of the Demon Sect pursued whatever they wanted and acted in accordance with their nature. After so many years of evolution, they have changed and have also become interested in the secular imperial power today. Alas, how easy is to govern the country? Can they manage it if they give up a good country to them? Chi Tiandao was wrong!"
Chi Tiandao is the leader of the Demon Sect now. He is a rare master in the world. He is just extremely mysterious. Few people have seen his true face in the world. He once suffered the disaster for the world two hundred years ago. Later, after Su Tianhe and Sun Quanzhou were born, they have not appeared in the world for many years. Some people speculate that he may have broken the void and left this world.
Li Xiake has been wandering around the world for so long, and naturally knows the names of the sect leaders of several major sects. When he heard Gong Manxue's understatement of comments on Chi Tiandao, an extremely strange feeling appeared in his heart. It seemed that the master of the Demon Sect of Chi Tiandao, the great master who broke the sky, was actually just like this in Gong Manxue's heart.
He was completely evaluating Chi Tiandao from a perspective of perspective, without any negative emotions such as fear, worry, etc. In front of him, the leader of the Demon Sect was not much higher than ordinary people.
Then he heard Gong Manxue say, "This evil path is destined to not last long, and it is not worth worrying. I am afraid that it is just as tired and difficult for the people today. If it is not pacified well, there will inevitably be chaos. At that time, local forces will take advantage of the situation and it will be difficult to extinguish the fire!"
Li Xiake smiled and said, "Its rise is brisk, and its fall is sudden. It will decline after prosperity. Which dynasty can break out of this cycle of reincarnation?"
Gong Manxue said: "But if I die in my generation, how can I be willing to do so?"
Li Xiake said: "I will only ask you one thing, is this human emperor worthy of his title of emperor now?"
Gong Manxue was silent for a moment and said, "I don't look like a monarch!"
Li Xiake laughed and said, "The way is not good, you can float on the sea! Since it is not worth protecting him, just leave, why bother so much?"
Gong Manxue shook his head and said, "What are the people in the world? What are the millions of people in Baidi City? I am willing to give up the position of the city lord, but I can't give up the people in the city!"
He said to Li Xiake: "You have achieved success in practicing Confucian Dharma, but no one explains the mystery of it, and there will be some discomfort. You are here just in time today. Come back home with me. I can tell you one by one the most upright spirits of Confucian Dharma."
A gust of wind blew, and Gong Manxue Xiao Ran's white hair drifted with the wind, and said softly: "I don't speak easily, I can't speak in vain. Listen to my sermon, you must agree to me with a condition!"
