Chapter 579: Simplify the complicated, on the inside and outside of the chessboard
"I have seen the rise and fall of the Lord."
When they saw Chen Cuo approaching, the old man, woman, and scribes all calmed down their expressions and bowed to him.
After leaving the Qiu Ruins, although they lost their physical bodies, the beacon also broke free from its restraints and fell into the river again, giving it a sense of the otherworldly.
When I met Chen Cuo face to face, I naturally got a glimpse of the truth.
Chen Cuo was not surprised. He came to the three of them and said frankly: "When the matter is urgent, you must obey the authority. In such critical moments, you really can't take care of many things. The three of you are the founders. If it is so silent,
It is really a pity that it will disappear, so I decided to invite a few people here on my own initiative. I actually have no other intention. If I say it is selfish, it is somewhat..."
After a pause, he smiled and said: "No matter what the reason is, you have been sitting in the ruins and prevented many disasters, so it shouldn't end like this."
"You're welcome, fellow Taoist." The scribe said calmly, "If we had the intention to reject the situation just now, no matter how sophisticated our fellow Taoist's methods are, we would never get into this situation. In the final analysis... no matter how we flaunt ourselves,
When faced with the possibility of losing one's life, one still feels fear, and we are no exception."
"That's the truth." The old man nodded, took a long breath, and cleared away the haze in his heart. "It is better to cultivate here than to lose both body and soul. It is much better than the previous situation." He looked at it.
He looked at Chen Cuo and said, "Besides, compared with fellow Taoists, our Taoist methods are actually of little use and there is nothing worthy of your plot."
"That's wrong." Chen Cuo shook his head, "Chen really has something that I would like to ask some people for advice."
The woman suddenly became energetic and said hurriedly: "What is it? Let me tell you."
The old man's eyes also lit up and he became energetic.
"Have you ever heard that there is a tomb in the ruins?"
Across from each other, the three of them looked at each other.
Present life.
Chen Cuo opened his eyes again.
"Those three people belong to different eras. Taken together, they have been suppressed in the Qiu Ruins for nearly a thousand years! According to them, they have been unable to leave the altar for thousands of years and can only wander outside the body. Not only in the Qiu Ruins, but also in the Qiu Ruins.
We even used the occasionally manifested cracks in the heavens to carefully explore the outside world, but we didn't encounter such dense cracks as now..."
There was a bit of solemnity in his eyes.
"Even so, they don't even know that there is a tomb in the Qiu Ruins. The tomb is hidden deep enough. It is impossible to know whether it has been there since the Qiu Ruins was formed or was put in later.
Verification, but..."
Thinking of this, Chen Cuo's eyes swept over Xiaozhu, Xiaogui and the Cai brothers.
"Why did you meet Brother Zhu and others? Is it a coincidence or fate? If it is fate, which one is it? Why is it destined to this person?"
After thinking about it, Chen Cuo's eyes fell on the strange beast that shrank but cautiously moved towards him.
"The grave is in the ruins, the egg is in the graveyard, and this beast was born from an egg. What is its origin? Why does it seem to be connected with my will? However, no matter what its origin is, it must be Hepan Gudao and Ancient God.
The whole clan is inseparable! It may even be involved in the reason why Pangu Dao and the Path of Merit and Virtue gradually disappeared..."
He recalled the words of the two outsiders.
"It's a pity that we won't be able to get to the bottom of it for a while."
At this thought, he withdrew his gaze, looked towards the northern sky, and whispered: "It's coming."
"What's coming? Something big?"
The little pig jumped up and landed on Cui Qian's shoulder. He also looked towards the north, but the first thing he saw was a figure riding in the clouds.
Dian Juezi's mind had been infected in the cave before. Although he was rescued by Chen Cuo, he was hurt in the end. Now that he activated his magical power, he was more or less unable to do what he wanted, and he had to bear the wind and sand all the way.
At this point, there is no longer the elegance of the immortal family, but a bit more embarrassment.
Especially after he saw his sitting cross-legged and silent, teasing the meditating Qi Tongzi, he was even more stunned, but he immediately came to his senses, cupped his hands towards Chen Cuo and said: "I have seen a real person, so please be careful, that Northland guy.
The Turks are leading a group of soldiers and horses over here. They must have noticed the movement here and want to come over to inquire. A quick look shows that there must be nearly a thousand people."
"Turkic soldiers and horses coming from the north!?" Cui Qian's expression changed slightly, and then he quickly explained to Chen Cuo: "Turkic soldiers and horses are everywhere in Dingyang, but those who can come from the north are all Turkic troops.
One man is worth ten cavalry!"
Cui Kuang couldn't help but said: "Although these barbarians are dressed like beasts and don't know the etiquette, they are full of martial virtues, just like wild beasts. They are very ferocious when they fight. Most of them don't even care about their own lives. We Han soldiers can't deal with them."
of!"
Chen Cuo frowned slightly.
Noticing this subtle change, Cui Qian suddenly came back to his senses, patted his head and said: "It's disciple Meng Lang. Here, there is uncle and master here, how can ordinary soldiers and horses be opponents?"
"Young men, don't underestimate these barbarians' troops."
Dian Juezi said: "The Turkic Ashina clan was just a small tribe of Hu at first, and was once a forger slave of Rouran. It was able to prosper and become the overlord of the grassland. During this period, in order to obtain the sudden appearance of the gods, they worshiped the Zoroastrian and the King.
, worshiped witches, and even surrendered to the Samananas decades ago, so there is no shortage of supernatural powers and tricks among the tribe. Since the Central Plains returned to chaos, the Sui Dynasty collapsed, and the Northland returned to chaos, the Turks took the opportunity to rise up, not only invading the Central Plains southward, but also
Many people from the Central Plains were kidnapped, and many monks went to punish them, but they continued to hate the grassland..."
When he said this, his eyes became a little colder: "Even my Kunlun disciples have disappeared on the grassland!"
"That's right, Uncle Master shouldn't take it lightly." Xiang Ran's voice suddenly came from one side, "The Turkic soldiers and horses stationed in the north came for the ruins here. There will be no shortage of magicians! They didn't get close before.
, just watching the Taoist sect fight within itself does not mean that they have any scruples, on the contrary, they actually want to see the right time and catch them all in one fell swoop!"
Speaking of this, Xiang Ran's eyes also showed a bit of coldness.
"In recent years, several people from Taihua Mountain have also fallen into the grassland!"
At the same time, in the dream.
"The Lord of Rise and Fall came to the Northland this time to explore the ruins. He must have other purposes. Perhaps he wants to use the chaos in the Northland to further understand the way of rise and fall! Maybe it is for some other purpose, but now I
Since we are protecting this person, we have to think more, what do you two think?"
The old man was sitting on the clouds with a calm expression.
The woman and the scribe faced each other and each had their own thoughts after hearing the words.
The old man saw that the two people did not express their stance, so he did not hide it and simply stated: "Since we have attached to this strange world, we have naturally come under his command. In the future, we must show our value and be the leader of the rise and fall.
Only when the Lord uses you can you sit back and relax. I know that you are all used to being carefree, but since you are disabled, you finally know what will happen if your life is destroyed. You should be more restrained when you are suspicious..."
After hearing the old man's words, the woman stopped smiling, while the scribe looked solemn.
"Old boy, you are very knowledgeable!"
Suddenly, a voice came from the side.
This caused the expressions of the three people to change drastically. When Xun Sheng looked around, they saw a black flag flying in the sky and transforming into an old man in black robes in front of them.
"My descendants, since you are here, it's time to learn the rules from me."
"The purpose of ordering Li Fushe to lead the troops south is to set rules for Li Yuan's son! Let the Han people in the Middle Kingdom know who is their master!"
In the vast grassland, on the big chair in the sweat tent, Khan Sibi, wearing a golden sword, was sitting, talking to a monk wearing a golden cassock opposite.
He wiped the thick beard on his face, anger bursting from his eyes!
"He occupied Chang'an, became emperor, and enjoyed the colorful world of Middle-earth! There was an endless supply of gold, silver, jewels, carriages, and beauties! But he only sent me those things. He treated me like a beggar! I want it.
The fertile land! Endless cattle and sheep! Women and slaves!”
The monk smiled slightly and said: "Great Khan, everything has its destiny. I, the Buddha, will be merciful and will definitely make your wish come true, and you will be able to save the world!"
As he spoke, he turned his head slightly, his golden pupils penetrated the void, and saw several black lines in the long river.
On the other side, Shibi Khan laughed loudly, stood up and said: "Since I have the words of the Living Buddha, I can naturally get what I want! I hope that my younger brother can get back what I deserve from Li Yuan's son!
Then let this Tang Gong know the rules and be as obedient as Dingyang Khan!"
After a few breaths, the monk bowed and left.
After walking out of the sweat tent, he passed through the noisy tribal camp and came to a forest on the outskirts. Then he stretched out his hand and reached into the void with his fingertips. He grabbed a black thread and flicked it gently.
"My Lord, it is not a good habit to manipulate cause and effect at will." The monk chuckled and said lightly, but there was a chill in his tone, "People like you who are so arrogant and deviant are sinful.
It is profound, but it is still designed at every turn. It is arrogant to think that everyone in the world is a chess piece and can be manipulated at will. Even I, a Buddhist, despise it and want to use it as a sword. It is really arrogant! The three poisons are strong, so we must quit.
!”
Ding!
Amidst the sound of leaning, the projection of a young man with an innocent smile appeared, looking at the monk in amazement.
"Master, it's really surprising. He is obviously a human being with no spiritual practice at all, but he can go deep into the river and seize one of my story clues."
Seeing that the monk had no intention of answering, the young man clasped his hands together and said, "This is me, Meng Lang, but this is not a sign of contempt for Buddhism. On the contrary, in my opinion, Buddhism is a respectable opponent and the best player on the chessboard."
What foreign chess players are doing today is not like that master of rise and fall, who has obviously entered the game but has no self-awareness and can only be reduced to a chess piece, subject to others' calculations."
After a pause, he lowered his voice: "However, the method I am following is not to manipulate cause and effect, but to follow cause and effect and delete useless details. After all, how can I control the layout of Buddhism?"
