Pei Shiju did not answer hastily, but frowned slightly, thinking about the meaning of his words.
While thinking, he was even more careful and quietly observing his surroundings.
Upon seeing this, Pei Shiju noticed that since then, there had been silence outside the house. Not to mention the guards, the voices of the attendants, not even the chirping of insects and birds could be heard.
Perhaps because of this experience, Pei Shiju did not make any noise or panic, but calmed down and looked at the old man in front of him and began to think deeply.
After a while, he said: "I don't think the old gentleman is like an ordinary person, so why do you care about such ordinary things? Whether the Zhou Kingdom gets the land or not should be a headache for the court."
"Because of this."
This old man dressed in gold is naturally the golden lotus incarnation of Chen Cuo.
He had previously asked Pei Shiju in the form of a green lotus and gained enlightenment. He also used the incarnation of a white lotus to enter and exit the chaos formation to consolidate his understanding.
Nowadays, the Fourth Humanitarian Consensus has established a complete framework. What is lacking is to expand the concept of this consensus as much as possible and make it more comprehensive, so that it can truly encompass concepts such as "Han, Wei, and Jin"!
At this time, the courts of the northern two countries and the Chen Kingdom in the south were in chaos, while the Zhou and Qi countries were even more armed and their lands changed hands.
Under the supervision of the Yin Division, if Chen Cuo, as a monk, rashly gets involved in ordinary weapons and weapons matters, it will not only harm his Yin virtue, but also more likely cause karma, fall into a bottleneck, and affect his cultivation. However, he can draw on the world's situation and draw lessons from it.
Perception is naturally unrestricted.
After thinking about this, Chen Cuo said: "Let the gentleman know that the old man is indeed an outsider, but the wonderful method he practices must learn from the things in the world and trace the stories of the past."
Pei Shiju was surprised when he heard this. After pondering for a moment, he looked outside the house again, then nodded and said, "In that case, I'll give you some advice."
He cleared his throat and said: "In Pei's opinion, it is difficult to say whether this battle is good or bad. It mainly depends on where you stand. Judging from the current situation, it is a mixed blessing for Zhou Guo and for Da Qi.
For me, it’s an opportunity, and it might be a good thing.”
"Oh? It's hard to say whether the state of Zhou is good or bad after gaining new territory. But it's a good thing for the state of Qi who lost the battle and lost its land?" Chen Cuo's smile did not change, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, "I would like to hear the details."
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Pei Shiju seemed to see the changing scenery of the mountains and rivers through the other person's eyes.
But since he is a stranger in the world, it makes sense that he is a bit strange.
After calming down, he continued: "The purpose of Zhou Guo's army was to consolidate his power and resolve domestic conflicts beyond the borders. Now that he has obtained the land, his wishes have been fulfilled, and the undercurrents in the country have been suppressed.
, the situation has been stabilized, and the power of Zhou's powerful officials will not change. Although they have gained new territory, the hidden danger of internal strife will still exist, and there will still be calculations in the future, so it is difficult to determine whether it is good or bad."
Chen Cuo asked again: "Where is Qi?"
"Daqi..." Pei Shiju hesitated for a moment, then said: "The emperor has just passed away, the young emperor is in power, there are traitors in power, and he orders the court to attack. If there are no external enemies, the court will fall into internal fighting, but now there are foreign enemies forcing
, even if the several factions in the DPRK are unwilling, they must temporarily join hands to advance and retreat together, otherwise, how can the general be attached to it if the skin is gone? Therefore, next, there should be a new DPRK atmosphere!"
Chen Cuo laughed, stretched out his hand to grab it, and gathered an invisible energy in his sleeve.
Pei Shiju saw this and said, "The old gentleman seems to have a different opinion."
Chen Cuo did not hide anything, he calmed down and said: "The reason why I came here is because my path is not comprehensive. I only focus on attacking with troops and miss the strategy. I want to get the overall situation from Pei Jun's mouth, but Pei Jun's words are of course
It makes sense, but it’s also one-sided.”
"This..." Pei Shiju hesitated.
"Pei Jun still has thoughts in his mind, but it's hard to explain because of his position." Chen Cuo shook his head, "But it doesn't matter. What Mr. Pei said was actually from the perspective of gains and losses in the court and the interests of factions.
, it also involves the strategic advancement and retreat of the two countries. At the same time, because of your own position, you deliberately ignore the lessons learned in past history. This is actually what the old man needs, and this is enough!"
As Chen Cuo said, he suddenly waved his hand, and a faint Buddha light spread, and the thoughts of all peoples attached to it, interpreting the changes in people's hearts and evolving historical scenes.
Buddha's light is like a tide, covering Pei Shiju!
Even though Pei Shiju looked normal on the surface, he was actually always vigilant. The moment the Buddha's light came towards him, he blocked it and scolded him. The aura of awe in his body suddenly erupted, preventing the Buddha's light from getting close!
However, Chen Cuo's thoughts of Buddha's Light and Humanity were not intended to threaten him. Instead, they evolved into illusory historical fragments in front of Pei Shiju's eyes——
Princes, generals and ministers, dragons and snakes in the grass!
It started at one time, gained crowds and followed the dragon, and established a country;
The dynasty is at its peak, the fire is cooking the oil, and the flowers are blooming;
Undercurrents gradually arise, internal strife emerges, and external enemies knock on the door!
"This is?" Pei Shiju was slightly shocked. He saw many details from each fragment, which corresponded to the historical documents he had read. "This is the dynasty since the pre-Qin kingdoms, the Qin and Han Dynasties, and the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
Miniature! The old gentleman is so knowledgeable!”
"It's not that much of a skill. I just know the general context. It's hard to tell the truth from the past. Keep an eye on it. The next thing is the key!" Chen Cuo smiled and waved his sleeves, "It's up to you to witness!"
The historical fragments come together like a river, but this river is transparent and illusory, and it seems that it may collapse at any time.
Sudden!
The river bifurcates and goes in two directions.
One thing is that in the face of numerous national calamities, the Ming Lord led the way and united as one to turn things around and revive the dynasty!
One thing is that there is chaos in the country, internal and external attacks, disunity, deterioration, and the collapse of the building!
"If we are apart, we will be weak; if we are opposite, we will perish. A great country will not perish from the outside, but perish from within."
The faint words sounded in Pei Shiju's heart, and he was frightened, and a thought came out.
Not only him, but also his friends who had discussed things with him, no matter where they were at this moment, their minds were trembling, and they had a ray of thought.
In Chen Cuo's body, the purple energy of the dynasty trembled, and in the Southern Dynasty, countless scholars and common people who knew the name of the immortal in the dream also expressed a thought at this moment.
Similarly, under the pressure of the war, there were also followers of He Lord who became more and more devout in their worship. At this moment, they felt a figure sitting cross-legged in their hearts, and unconsciously, a thought came out.
These thoughts, as thin as silk and as thin as mist, gathered from all directions and entered two tributaries. The tributaries solidified instantly and were then collected by Chen Cuo into his sleeves.
Then, he cupped his hands towards Pei Shiju and said with a smile: "With your help, I have formed a karmic relationship. If you need it in the future, I will be rewarded. I will say goodbye now. I hope you have a bright future." After saying this, he turned and left.
He took one step ten feet and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The lingering sound lingered in his ears, and for some reason, Pei Shiju felt as if he had lost a good friend, and felt a little empty in his heart.
.
.
"Kill!"
In the dense forest at the foot of the mountain, a Zhou soldier screamed, chasing Qi's defeated troops.
With the power of victory, Zhou's soldiers killed each one with red eyes and their momentum was like a rainbow. On the other hand, Qi's soldiers and horses were like bereaved dogs and collapsed at the first touch!
On the hill, Chen Cuo's human incarnation looked at it from a distance and sighed.
"Not long ago, it was the Qi soldiers who had the advantage and broke the Zhou army's formation. Now the tide has turned, but it is the other way around. It is true that things in the world are unpredictable. In fact, there are lessons learned from what is happening before us, but even if we know it, we can't
What can be done? Those who lead troops, those who issue orders, those who plan, and those who are in power are all driven by immediate gains and desires and cannot change their path. The so-called learning from history is just a statement. At most, it will be lamented by others afterwards, and then the cycle starts over again.
, how many people can truly absorb the lessons and remember the stories of the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties?"
On second thought, he stretched out his hand to grab the fighting soldiers and horses. The killing seemed to pause for a moment, and then their weapons and armor trembled at the same time, and streams of golden and iron breath flowed out and converged towards Chen Cuo.
At the same time, all the soldiers also had a thought coming out and directed it towards Chen Cuo!
"This week, the two countries of Qi will also become history and the past. I wonder how many people can regard them as their teachers in previous lives?"
In an instant, Bai Lian transformed into the sky and pinched a star that shone with cold light in his hand. He turned around and disappeared without a trace.
.
.
In Hejun Temple.
Chen Cuo's true form is sitting cross-legged in the temple.
The starry scene that originally filled the entire room was now restricted to an inch outside of him. At first glance, it seemed as if his entire body was separated from his surroundings, surrounded by a gap in the starry sky.
Amidst the twinkling stars, gurgling water flowed down from the gaps and soaked the ground.
On the roof, there is a flaming dragon wandering around, and there are thick grass everywhere in the cracks of the floor. It has grown for many years and is now as tall as a person.
Ding!
Amidst the soft sound, cold starlight suddenly came from all directions and merged into Chen Cuo's body one after another!
While Chen Cuo was hesitating, gold and iron rang, and sharp flying knives flew out from the cracks in the starry sky!
"The gold industry is complete."
With a sigh, Chen Cuo took a deep breath, and the fire dragon fell down and was inhaled by him;
As all the grass in the house withered, the green sound was also swallowed up by him;
Then, the miniature of the starry sky that shrouded his body was peeled off like clothes, turned into strands of starlight, and entered his mouth;
Finally, the cold light flying all over the room turned into cold light under his breath, and then was swallowed into his mouth.
For a time, the four colors of light on Chen Cuo's body flowed and alternated rapidly.
Buzz!
The whole temple shook violently!
Chen Cuo slowly opened his eyes. Red flames, green buds, blue water waves, and golden cold light were alternately changing in his eyes!
"The four elements are gathered together. It's a good time to see if we can use the mutual support and restraint of the five elements to condense the last element!"
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Chen took the sword secret with his wrong hand and placed it on his chest.
In the sky, the clouds trembled, and shadows of chains appeared, several of which extended downwards, all the way to Chen Cuo.
The remaining soul beats, and countless memories related to this land spurt out!
Memory of the earth, past history!
At this moment, it turned into brilliance and circulated endlessly between Chen Cuo's body and mind!
