After accepting the map, Gu Zuo stood in front of Gou Ming and did not leave.
After a long time, he finally spoke:
"Senior brother, I think your moral theory is not entirely correct."
There is not much emotion in the voice, but it gives people a sense of perseverance.
This short sentence is the beginning of the discussion.
Gu Zuo denied the six-character mantra that Gou Ming once taught him in the Qiong Ling Sect: cut off lust and cut off cause and effect.
Desire comes first, cause and effect comes later.
Because only by cutting off passion can we ensure that we are not bound by cause and effect, and the former is a prerequisite for the latter.
Gou Ming was an orphan. He grew up in a poor family. His parents died of tuberculosis when he was very young. When he was young, he wandered outside and experienced many hardships that others had never experienced.
Fortunately, when he was fourteen years old, he was accepted as an apprentice by a drug store.
At the Mao hour, you go up to the mountain to collect herbs, at the Si hour, you boil the medicine and refine it, at the You hour, you prepare and deliver the medicine according to the formula, and you can only rest after working hard until the Hai hour.
However, Gou Ming is a smart man and will take advantage of the convenience of his status to collect some broken medicine every day to prepare the medicinal bath needed for body tempering, and then step into the body tempering realm and become a spiritual practitioner.
In terms of cultivation, Gou Ming showed amazing talent. He became a master of the ninth level of body tempering in just one year just by relying on broken medicine.
At least, in the secular world, it is an absolutely powerful fighting force.
It was also at that moment that the owner of the drug store discovered Gou Ming's talent for cultivation and betrothed his eighteen-year-old daughter to him, hoping that Gou Ming would inherit his family business when he grew old.
Gou Ming readily accepted this.
Although Bai Lai's wife is a brick bigger than him, she is not bad in appearance. Plus she has a lot of assets, so no one can refuse her.
But just when Gou Ming was about to reach the peak of his life, bandits from the mountains attacked the town at Mao Shi.
The drug store he had worked so hard to run was looted, and the owner died under the sword of the bandits.
After Gou Ming, who was full of blood, came back and learned of the situation, he went to the meeting alone in anger and went to the top of the mountain where the bandits were. Using his own cultivation of the ninth level of body tempering, he almost killed all the bandits.
Only, let the chicken thief's second boss sneak out.
Gou Ming didn't realize it at the time. After he returned to the medicine shop, he swore to protect the beauty for the rest of his life amidst her sobs.
In this way, a few months passed, and Gou Ming resumed operating the drug store.
Until...the second leader of the bandits came to seek revenge. While Gou Ming was not at home, he killed his fiancée and then fled the scene of the crime.
Even though the second boss was still chased by Gou Ming, who was chatting with teeth, he died miserably.
But it was just a bad breath. It was impossible for his dead fiancée to be revived. From this moment on, Gou Ming realized it.
Unlike ordinary people, what he realized was his unique understanding of cause and effect.
Gou Ming felt that the reason for this series of tragedies, apart from the bandits' dehumanization, was that when he avenged the boss who cultivated him, he forcibly connected the bandits with himself.
If he had not gone to seek revenge, his fiancée would not have been killed.
Of course, Gou Ming also understood another important factor that caused his fiancée's death: the second leader of the bandit escaped from the mountain when he was not paying attention.
But Gou Ming felt that nothing could be absolutely certain.
As long as there is only a 10% probability of failure, the consequences will be unimaginable once it occurs.
So the best way is to completely cut off the cause and effect.
Gou Ming believes that the biggest source of cause and effect is emotion.
The bandits killed the drug store owner, which was a result of the bandits forcing the cause and effect. Gou Ming avenged the boss because of his love and righteousness, so he was inflicted with the cause and effect.
The so-called emphasis on love and justice is one of the feelings.
If Gu Zuo, who seemed to be close to him, was killed one day, he would never take action to avenge Gu Zuo.
If the sect encountered a major disaster, he would also choose to run away as soon as possible.
Gou Ming defines himself as a special kind of ruthless person.
If others are good to him, he will be good to others.
Only when cause and effect appears on others, he will immediately choose to run away.
And when the cause and effect befalls him, he will not ask anyone for help, but chooses to cut off the cause and effect as quickly as possible with his own strength.
In other words, there are certain similarities between his "cowardice" and "cowardice".
This is something Gu Zuo cannot agree with.
For example, Bai Zhexin was forced to marry by the Xingkonglong family.
If it were Gou Ming, he would choose to stand by and watch, or in other words, he would not let the so-called junior sister have a certain status in his heart from the beginning.
This is exactly what Gu Zuo couldn't do.
Bai Zhexin was kind to him, so Gu Zuo naturally had a place for her in his heart.
When the cause and effect appeared on Bai Zhexin, he naturally could not stand by and watch, and forced the cause and effect to continue on himself.
…
Faced with what Gu Zuo said, Gou Ming smiled.
He looked up at the sky, seeming to be recalling something. After a while, he pulled back his thoughts and said:
"If you don't recognize my way, that's how it should be, isn't it?"
"My Tao itself has a lot of mistakes, or no one's Tao is perfect. It's just that different Tao will apply to different people."
"Your Gou is different from my Gou. You are simply cautious, act cautiously, and try your best to make yourself strong enough to easily wipe out the cause and effect on your body."
"But you know... you will live very tiredly because you are not qualified to make mistakes."
Speaking of this, Gou Ming's expression became serious.
He once made a mistake and lost his fiancée.
But now, he is not involved in cause and effect, and has never been in trouble again.
The Tao is not perfect, it just applies to different people.
This sentence made Gu Zuo agree with him very much.
In history, the powerful men who achieved the title of Dao Lord and ascended to the realm of Lingyuan were all unique in their understanding of the Dao.
The ‘Tao’ of Demon Desire Dao Lord is to kill the sky.
And will the "Tao" of Lord Youyan be the same as that of Lord Demonic Desire?
The answer is obvious.
"Just stick to your own ideas and do what you want."
Gou Ming added another sentence.
Gu Zuo nodded. He was also curious. Did Senior Brother Gou Ming, who didn't want to offend Karma, plan to participate in this Tiandao Conference?
He couldn't help but ask: "Senior Brother Gou, what are your plans for this Tiandao Conference?"
"Stuck on the passing line, I barely qualified to enter the Youyan Daojun ruins; in addition, you don't have to compete with others to participate in the ruins to get the treasure you want."
Gou Ming's meaningful answer.
It was at this moment that Mo Yan on the stage finally stopped his impassioned speech.
"Everyone, the rules of this arena competition are the same as those of previous Tiandao conferences. The arena divisions will now begin!"
Mo Yan waved his sleeves, and a large amount of flames surged out.
Inside the flame, there were pieces of yellowed special talisman paper wrapped in a ball.
"Draw lots, let's begin!"
With a thought from Mo Yan, the flames flew towards the spiritual practitioners present. It could distinguish the spiritual practitioners who wanted to participate in this Heavenly Dao Conference based on their age.
At the same time, several low voices sounded from the sky.
"I'm late!"
"Hahaha, fortunately the Tiandao Conference hasn't started yet, so I won't miss the exciting competition!"
…
The colorful spiritual power turned into a rainbow and illuminated the entire Red Flame Land.
One after another, the powerful Linghong descended.
