Faced with such a ruthless man as Zhang Zhibai, Kou Ji had nothing to say except admiration.

Not only did Kou Ji admire Zhang Zhibai, but so did Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng.

At least the two of them would never have the same thoughts as Zhang Zhibai after learning that their graves would be dug up after death.

Zhang Zhibai didn't pay attention to the expressions of Kou Ji and the other two people. He just stared at Kou Ji and said, "I'm not afraid of people digging up their graves, and I'm not afraid of my children and grandchildren being killed. What I'm afraid of is that once the longevity method is introduced into the palace, the officials will be obsessed with it and endanger the people.

Jiangshan Sheji of the Great Song Dynasty.

Your grandfather, Li Gong, us, and countless civil and military ministers spent decades to turn the Song Dynasty into the situation where all nations came to the dynasty today.

Our hard work should not be ruined by the longevity method."

Seeing this, Kou Ji said frankly: "At first, my thoughts were similar to yours, so after I got the longevity method, I burned it decisively. But later, after I thought about it carefully, I felt that this was inappropriate.

Now that the longevity method has come out, officials will definitely be concerned about it.

Even if he doesn't care about it now, he will care about it in the future.

Not only the officials, but other powerful civil and military ministers may also be thinking about this method.

Hiding this method will only make people miss it more.

If this method is kept hidden, it will cause disaster sooner or later.

So, I thought of doing the opposite.

Let the monks offer all the longevity methods in their hands.

Then spread the word widely.

There are countless smart people in the world.

The authenticity of those longevity methods, as well as the existing problems, will soon be discovered.

When the time comes, if we give you some guidance, someone will surely stand up and overthrow those longevity methods.

After the law of longevity is overthrown, the officials will inevitably wake up and will never believe in the law of longevity again.

Officials no longer believe in the law of longevity, and the law of longevity will no longer affect the country of the Song Dynasty.

After taking this as a warning, future successors will definitely not believe in the method of longevity.

If things go on like this, a hidden rule will be formed in the court, and the method of longevity will no longer appear in the court or in the palace."

The Buddhists used human nature to plot against Kou Ji, and Kou Ji also used human nature to make Zhao Zhen see clearly the methods of longevity that fooled the world.

People always gain wisdom after taking a setback.

If you don't experience pain, you won't remember the lessons at all.

Only by letting Zhao Zhen and the people suffer a loss will they understand that there is no way to live forever in the world.

Only in this way can we eliminate the harm caused by the method of longevity to the court, the emperor, and the people.

Seeking longevity is not the prerogative of emperors.

Not only did the emperor live a long life, but so did the people.

In the decades since the founding of the Song Dynasty, two great figures have been destroyed by the art of longevity.

One emperor and one phase.

The emperor is Zhen Zong Zhao Heng, and the prime minister is Wen Hui Gong Xue Juzheng.

Zhenzong Zhao Heng died because of long-term use of the 'elixir', which caused erysipelas to enter his bones and was difficult to cure.

Xue Juzheng, Duke of Wenhui, died of cinnabar poisoning.

This shows how harmful the technique of longevity can be.

Everyone has the desire to live forever, so there is no stopping you from seeking immortality.

Only if the world realizes that the longevity techniques boasted by monks are deceptive tricks, will the world give up on practicing the techniques of longevity.

After listening to Kou Ji's words, Zhang Zhibai frowned and said: "The disaster caused by the late emperor's pursuit of immortality is still vivid in my mind. I don't want to see the officials follow in the footsteps of the late emperor."

Kou Ji solemnly said: "It is precisely because the disaster caused by the late emperor's pursuit of immortality is so vivid that the officials will never look at the method of taking elixirs among the methods of immortality. At most, the officials will look at some methods of meditating, practicing Qi, and cultivating the body."

.

Officials are people who practice martial arts. After seeing the methods of meditating and practicing Qi, officials will know whether they are good or bad.

We only need to hand over the longevity method to the officials, and then tell the officials about the dangers of others practicing the longevity method.

Officials will definitely lose interest in the method of longevity, and may even become disgusted with it."

Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng were slightly moved after listening to Kou Ji's explanation.

Zhang Zhibai still frowned.

Lu Yijian looked at Zhang Zhibai and persuaded him: "Yong Hui, Kou Ji's method is a once and for all solution. I think you can give it a try."

Wang Zeng mused: "Since ancient times, the wiser the emperor, the harder it is to escape the fate of pursuing immortality. In order to prevent officials from indulging in seeking immortality in the future, there is no harm in giving it a try now.

I will keep an eye on this matter, and I will take a look at it before the monks offer the method of longevity to the officials.

I will never let anything that harms the official family or the country flow into the palace."

Seeing that both Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng agreed with Kou Ji's method, Zhang Zhibai could only sigh and said, "Let's give it a try. If this matter harms the official family and the country, I will definitely participate."

You three."

Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng looked at each other and smiled bitterly, but said nothing.

Zhang Zhibai has this temperament, he is thrifty and a little paranoid in his words and deeds.

Seeing that Lu Yijian and the others agreed to his proposal, Kou Ji smiled and said: "It's time for me to go and meet the fairy girl for a while. By the way, let her bring a message to other monks."

"But that Fairy He in Sanqing Temple?"

Lu Yijian suddenly became interested when she heard that Kou Ji was going to visit He Xiangu.

Kou Ji nodded slightly.

Lu Yijian said with emotion: "Xianzi He is the most beautiful woman in Bianjing, and countless people fall in love with her. I also asked her to join the palace, but she refused.

I don’t know who would be lucky enough to be with her."

The smile on Kou Ji's face froze, and he said unceremoniously: "I am so shameless."

Lu Yijian glanced at Kou Ji with disdain, "What do you know? The sage said, 'Food, sex,' and if you don't know the fun, don't judge others."

"Old gangster!"

Kou Ji cursed again.

Lu Yijian got angry and yelled: "That's enough for you!"

"snort!"

Kou Ji snorted, ignored him, and decisively left the place.

After returning to his house, Kou Ji changed into regular clothes and drove to Sanqing Temple outside the city.

When he arrived at the gate of Sanqing Temple, Kou Ji was startled when he saw the huge crowd.

Kou Ji knew that He Xiangu was well-known in Bianjing City and had many followers, but he didn't expect there to be so many.

The sight of the long queue made people feel a little numb.

"Master, shall we wait?"

After the coachman drove to the end of the team, he turned back and asked Kou Ji in the carriage.

Kou Ji calmly ordered: "Hang the flag from the house."

The coachman agreed and hung the flag of the Kou government outside the carriage.

Those who were queuing up at the gate of Sanqing Temple saw the Kou Mansion's carriage and gave way one after another.

The Kou Mansion's carriage rushed from the end of the team to the head of the team arrogantly, and then drove straight into the Sanqing Temple.

Sanqingguan is not a big place, covering an area of ​​less than five acres.

Compared with Daxiangguo Temple, Wuyue Temple and other temples, it is small and pitiful.

In the past, there was only one Taoist priest and three boys in the temple.

When conducting an inventory of temples all over the world, we found out that not only were they not as wealthy as other temples, but they were so poor that they couldn't even afford to eat.

The soldiers who inspected the Sanqing Temple not only failed to find any property from the Sanqing Temple, but before leaving, they even gave away some money as food money to the three of them, the master and the disciple.

The three masters and disciples have never harmed anyone, nor have they deceived the people.

Therefore, during the inspection of temples all over the world, he successfully escaped disaster.

Sanqingguan used to be very poor.

It was not until He Xiangu moved in that Sanqing Temple gradually became more popular.

After Kou Ji arrived at the gate of Sanqing Temple in a carriage, he was stopped by two boys at the gate.

The boys politely told Kou Ji that He Xiangu was waiting for guests and asked Kou Ji to wait for a while.
