The originally gloomy ghost prison became even more terrifying after Lu Changsheng's wreaking havoc. There were scenes of landslides and earth-shattering everywhere, as if it had experienced a war between gods and demons.
On the ninth mountain, Lu Changsheng regained his sanity. The sharp shout blasted into his sea of consciousness and dispersed the murderous intention of the killing sword. Under the suppression of the Taoist book, the sea of consciousness became clear and no longer bloody.
When the killing sword slowly returned to its sheath, the redness in Lu Changsheng's eyes became a little lighter. Sitting on the top of the mountain, he took a long breath and felt his head roaring. It took a while for his memory to recover.
Unlike the previous use of the killing sword, Lu Changsheng was actually rational in using the killing sword this time. He could clearly feel everything he did, but the killing intent on the killing sword urged him to destroy everything and kill everything.
The living creatures around me feel like they are on drugs. They know they will become addicted, but they cannot extricate themselves.
After binding the killing sword again, Lu Changsheng looked into the depths of the ghost prison, with a bit of doubt in his eyes. The sharp shout came from there, the sound was loud and shocking.
"Who is that?" Lu Changsheng said to himself as he walked over and held the magic knife involuntarily with his right hand. The sound just now made him feel threatened.
To be able to wake him up from his thoughts of killing with just a sharp shout, this person must be very powerful, at least he has never seen such a powerful existence so far.
When he reached the top of the eighth mountain, a strange voice suddenly came, saying: "Boy, I advise you not to mess with the guys on the seven mountains in front. You can't deal with those people."
"Who?" Lu Changsheng looked around, and finally locked his eyes on his feet. This was the eighth mountain. He was sure that a terrifying existence should be imprisoned inside.
"I am the person you are looking for." The voice came again, "You should be the successor of my master Kong Kongmen. I didn't expect you to be so powerful. However, the sword on your back is really an ominous thing. I advise you.
It's better to throw it away as soon as possible, otherwise sooner or later you will lose your mind because of this sword."
"Miaoshou Kongkongmen?" Lu Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses, "Are you the Thieving Immortal Sikong Zhaixingxing?"
"Boy, are you polite? You should call me senior, or master." Sikong Zhaixing was a little unhappy, "How can you call me by my first name?"
"How do you know that I am the descendant of Miaoshou Kongkongmen?" Lu Changsheng was a little curious. He knew that the cage was so powerful that he could not hear anything outside at all. The reason why he judged the person locked up on the eighth mountain was naturally
It's because of Mao Xiaojian, the senior this guy wants to save is obviously Sikong Zhaixing.
"Of course I know, because you have the aura of my Mighty Hands Kongkongmen's magical power in you. Not only have you practiced the great thief Intangible, but you have also practiced our top magical power, Thunder Cloud. If you are not the descendant of my Mighty Hands Kongkongmen, who are you?
"Sikong Zhaixing explained, "Besides, our sect has always had only one successor. You have received the inheritance mark left by me. No matter who you are, you will inherit the Miaoshou Kongkongmen."
"Oh." Lu Changsheng suddenly realized, and suddenly thought of Mao Xiaojian and what he said about the treasure of Miaoshou Kongkong Sect. I'm afraid this guy doesn't even know where the treasure is. With his character, he would come to save the previous sect leader Sikong Zhaixing.
, are all very strange things, and obviously his purpose is just to learn from Sikong Zhaixing where the treasure of Miaoshou Kongkongmen is hidden.
Coupled with Mao Xiaojian's rags, Lu Changsheng became even more sure of this guy's purpose. Otherwise, every generation of descendants of the master Kongkongmen would be so carefree, but his cultivation was low and he was tricked again and again. This
It's really not in line with the tough style of the master's empty-handed successor.
If he really got the treasure, it would be possible to reach the innate realm now. How could he still be so miserable in the acquired realm?
"It turns out that the senior is Sikong Zhaixing. I thought that the senior was imprisoned on the top of the mountain in front. With the unparalleled magical powers of each generation of sect leaders of my Miaoshou Kongkong Sect, even if he is imprisoned, he should be imprisoned in the top-level cage.
." Knowing that Sikong Zhaixing had mistaken him for Mao Xiaojian, Lu Changsheng didn't point it out.
Anyway, this guy can't get in, so it's better to help him claim this valuable treasure. Moreover, Mao Xiaojian plotted against him from the beginning and even tempted him with a treasure that he had no idea about. He can only blame himself for his misfortune. If
Regardless of plotting against him, maybe Lu Changsheng would really help him.
For some reason, Sikong Zhaixing suddenly fell silent when he heard his words. After a while, his angry voice came: "What do you think this place is? A ghost prison, established by the famous Legalist saint in ancient times.
The ghost prison, the last ten hills, once imprisoned the most ferocious powers in ancient times. It is an honor for me to be imprisoned on the eighth hill!"
"It's an honor?" Lu Changsheng was really speechless. He had never heard that being in jail was an honor. However, when he heard Sikong Zhaixing actually saying that this was a prison where ancient powerful beings were imprisoned, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but be surprised. The ancient powerful powers were second only to others.
It’s really unbelievable that there are saints out there and someone can actually imprison them.
"How powerful is Legalism?" Lu Changsheng wondered. It seems that Legalism appeared in the pre-Qin era and flourished in the Qin State. The most famous figures in Legalism are Shang Yang and Han Feizi.
Among the hundreds of schools of thought, Legalism is very special. It does not have a clear founder, let alone an established school. They teach from all over the world.
Legalism is more of an ideological trend, and legalists are mostly political activists. They believe that the wheel of history is constantly moving forward, and oppose conservatism and retrogression. There is a famous saying in Legalism: "Three generations were kings with different etiquette, and five generations were kings with different etiquette."
Hegemony is based on different laws."
This is obviously different from the three schools of Confucianism, Taoism and Mohism. These three schools essentially demand a historical regression, a return to an era that no one knows exists, let alone what kind of "Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors" it is.
At the same time, Legalism was also the most realistic. Legalism abandoned the mystery of Taoism, the pedantry of Confucianism, and the anachronism of Mohism.
It was Guan Zhong who first gave rise to Legalism, but it was Shang Yang who promoted Legalism. Because of his governance, the Qin State laid the foundation for sweeping the six countries and unifying China.
Han Feizi was the master of Legalism and unified the three schools of Legalism. These two figures were called Dharma Sages by future generations. In that era, they were figures who could be compared with Confucius and Laozi.
But in history, these two Legalist saints did not die well. Shang Yang was split in a chariot by the King of Qin, while Han Feizi was poisoned by Qin Shihuang. Of course, Li Si was framed in this.
"Of course Legalism is powerful. If it weren't for Legalism's rule of law, there would be no Great Qin Empire in later generations. Although Emperor Qin Yingzheng was talented and strategizing, without Legalism's reforms, it laid the foundation for him to sweep across the six countries and want to unify
One or six countries will definitely be even more difficult." Sikong Zhaixing was a little excited, obviously he highly respected Legalism.
"Oh, but why didn't the last two Legalist saints die a good death?" Lu Changsheng said with sarcasm, "And..."
"Boy, you know nothing." Sikong Zhaixing interrupted angrily, "Among all the schools in the pre-Qin period, Legalism is the only one whose thought requires sacrificing one's life to practice it and shedding blood to commemorate it.
The people who bleed and pay their lives here are not only civilians, but also countless nobles who advocate Legalist ideas. Even if they don't die well, they die well. They are not like other aristocratic families who only know how to protect themselves and talk about the world.
The dream of Datong has never been realized.”
"Okay." Lu Changsheng really didn't want to discuss such a historical issue with Sikong Zhaixing. If the argument continued, there would be absolutely no conclusion. However, the Legalist approach reminded Lu Changsheng of those revolutionary pioneers in modern times.
The rise of the Chinese nation also chose to sacrifice its own life.
"You said that this prison was built by the Legalists. How could such a prison be built when the only two saints of the Legalists are dead?" Lu Changsheng asked strangely, "You have to know that this prison still holds people
The ancient great powers and legalist saints are just ordinary people, how could it be possible..."
"This must be attributed to the kings of Qin before the Great Qin Empire. Since the Qin State reused Shang Yang, the entire Qin State has implemented the rule of law and formulated strict laws that apply to both civilians and nobles.
In the pre-Qin era, there were countless powerful beings, and their power was strong enough to ignore any dogma." As he spoke, Sikong Zhaixing was silent for a moment, and then continued, "Shang Yang first established the ghost prison in Qin and arrested those who
Ignoring the power of laws and regulations, when the First Emperor swept through the six kingdoms and established the Qin Dynasty, the expansion of the ghost prison was inevitable. At that time, Han Feizi once said in "Five Worms": Confucianism disrupted the law with literature, and chivalry violated the prohibition with military force. This started the Qin Empire's war on
In the war between Qi Refiners and Soul Refiners, when the Ghost Prison was at its most prosperous, there were 999 mountains, and the lowest beings imprisoned were all on the ninth level of Qi Refining. Using our current calculations, they are all Martial Kings!"
"So that's it!" Lu Changsheng finally understood why after entering the cage, not only was the true energy sucked away, but even the Yang soul was suppressed when it emerged from the shell. It turned out that this was the place where those evil men from ancient times were imprisoned.
Lu Changsheng had no prejudice against Qin Shihuang and Han Feizi's practice of setting up ghost prisons to imprison these powerful men. This was just like the current confrontation between the Qi Refining Sect and the country.
The Qi Refining Sect is so high up there that they always think they can look down on everything, treating the lives of ordinary people as ants, and killing them whenever they want.
From the perspective of Qin Shihuang and Han Feizi, they need social stability and national unity, but most of the scholars are idle, beguiling Confucian scholars to write and criticize, destroying national stability, and supporting knights to carry out terrorist attacks everywhere.
.Those who want to split the empire are just one shot even now, let alone the Qin Empire that had just been unified at that time.
In this matter, Lu Changsheng felt that Qin Shihuang and Han Feizi did the right thing. If they had not laid the foundation for great unification, perhaps China would be fragmented like the West and would not be a unified country at all.
"Now you understand why I said that I am honored to be locked up on the eighth mountain." Sikong Zhaixing said proudly.
"Although the prison you are in has imprisoned ancient powerful men, this junior believes that being in prison is really not an honor." Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
"Hmph." Sikong Zhaixing snorted coldly and said, "You know what the hell, I'm not in jail here, but practicing here."
