That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 1231

Xu Beiyou said: "Xu has a little knowledge about the past of the Taoist sect. Ming Chen was also a person who followed Qiu Ye to assist Xiao Yu. Will it end like this?"

Xi Chen patted his knee lightly, and said with a smile: "Flying birds are exhausted, good bows are hidden, cunning rabbits are dead, and lackeys are cooked. Ming Chen claims to be a smart person, but his cleverness is all small cleverness. Current affairs, I don’t know the way to save one’s life wisely, but there is a way to kill one’s life.”

After a little silence, Xu Beiyou said, "It's not necessarily the case. From Xu's point of view, Ming Chen may be the kind of person who is good at seeking the country but not good at looking after himself."

Xi Chen said noncommittally: "These are all one-sided words of the old Taoist. After all, Ming Chen is known as a Taoist minister, so he has his own unique features. What the old Taoist said is just the opinion of a family and cannot be generalized. "

Xu Beiyou asked: "Dare to ask, old man, what do you think is the root cause of the Taoism going to such a point?"

Xichen pondered for a while and then said slowly: "In the past dynasties, there have been many incidents of foolish kings and immorals who put the blame on a woman. When it comes to whether the result of meddling in politics is good or bad, Lin Yinping, the empress dowager of this dynasty is an example, and looking at our sect, it is another example."

Xu Beiyou said: "The old man meant Mrs. Murong."

"It's Murong Xuan." Xi Chen's eyes gradually turned cold, "Murong Xuan was born in the Murong family. Her ancestors once gave birth to Murong Longcheng and Murong Fenghuang. Her father, Murong Yuan, was also a hero at that time. Such a family carefully cultivated her. A woman who deserves Zhong Lingyuxiu's four-character comment, but a woman is too smart, which is a good thing and a bad thing. Our Taoist sect married a wife of the head teacher, but the wife of the head teacher can only be the wife of the head teacher, and can never be the head teacher. Teach real people."

Xu Beiyou sighed softly: "When a person reaches a high place, his eyes open, and his heart naturally expands."

Xi Chen said: "Sect Master Xu's words are not bad, but in the final analysis, it is also because of Qiu Ye's delegation of power. After he suppressed a group of old people, his disciples are still not good enough, and all the brothers and sisters are not good enough because of Tian Chen's wantonness back then. Because of the company's relationship, it showed a tendency to be out of control, except for a dusty leaf, there was no one who could be of great use, so he could only temporarily hand over the power in his hands to Murong Xuan, which laid the groundwork for Murong Xuan's power in the future , will lead to all kinds of disasters later.”

Xu Beiyou neither agreed nor refuted, he just asked: "Senior, do you think that as long as Murong Xuan is removed, the Taoist sect will be safe?"

Xi Chen shook his head and said, "Maybe it was okay before, but the Daoist sect is no longer a problem for Murong Xuan at this stage. Even if Murong Xuan can really be eliminated, the Daoist sect still cannot advance or retreat."

Xu Beiyou said sharply: "If you can't plan ahead for the rainy day, it won't help you to hold an umbrella after the heavy rain falls and your clothes are already wet. But then again, if you don't hold an umbrella, just being drenched by the heavy rain will always hurt you." And the root of the inside."

Hearing this, Xi Chen's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and he even raised his tone of voice slightly, "This is the purpose of the old Taoist in inviting Sect Master Xu to come here today. The foundation of the Taoist sect cannot be destroyed by Qiu Ye and Murong Xuan. As Sect Master Xu said just now, Taoism is like a person who is drenched in heavy rain. Even if he is in good health, if things go on like this, if he doesn’t get sick today and tomorrow, he will definitely get sick the next day. Once he gets sick, the disease will come like a mountain The situation will collapse in an instant, and it will be out of control."

Xu Beiyou looked at Xichen, and said, "It seems inappropriate for seniors to mention such things to an outsider like me, especially since I'm still the mortal enemy of the Taoist sect, the master of the Sword Sect."

Xi Chen also looked at Xu Beiyou: "Sect Master Xu is talking about the difference between the inside and the outside. This truth is understood by the old Taoist, but now that the inside has been corrupted and decayed, it is no longer feasible to use medicine to treat it from the inside. It must be done at an extreme time." It is an extraordinary matter, this truth, Sect Master Xu should also understand."

"It's natural." Xu Beiyou smiled, "According to the old man, now is an extraordinary time, so Xu wants to ask for advice, what extraordinary things should he do?"

Xichen did not answer immediately, but looked at Xu Beiyou with sincerity in his eyes, and said softly: "Sect Master Xu, what the old Taoist is going to say next contains a huge relationship, and will even affect the general situation of the world, so the old Taoist begged Sect Master Xu, after you have listened, no matter whether you agree or not, don't reveal a word, otherwise the old Taoist and a group of junior disciples may be in danger of their lives."

"Please rest assured, senior." Xu Beiyou straightened his expression immediately after hearing the words, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what the old senior said, and regardless of whether Xu can agree, Xu promises in the name of the Sect Master of the Sword Sect that he will never give in to you." Leaving out half a word."

Xichen nodded heavily, then slowly got up and looked around.

Xu Beiyou still sat still.

Xi Chen took a deep breath, shook his big sleeve, and then circled it with one palm. There was a real fire spontaneously igniting in the air. At first, there were dots of stars, and then densely packed, comparable to the starry sky at night, as if there were stars in the daytime.

Xichen waved his sleeves again.

The bits and pieces began to change shape and position accordingly, like a chessboard.

The position of the two of them at this time is exactly in the Tianyuan position of the chessboard.

Xichen formed complicated and incomprehensible finger formulas with his hands. Under the blue sky in daylight, he actually outlined a vast starry sky that can only be seen under the night. With Master Xichen's control, the stars began to change positions one after another. It seemed that there were no rules to follow, but wherever they went, the light faded and even the sound died out.

This is a big formation!And it is similar to Jianzong's sword 34.

The whole small hill is a small world of its own.

Xu Beiyou looked around and praised: "The old man is very good."

"You've made a fool of yourself in front of Sect Master Xu." After Xi Chen sat down again, he waved his hands and said, "It's just that the matter is of great importance, and the old Taoist has to act cautiously."

Xu Beiyou said: "Understood."

Xichen breathed a long sigh of relief, and said: "For this sake, the old Taoist, I will stop talking about empty-headed things, and I will tell the old Taoist what I know, what I can do, what I hope for the help of Sect Master Xu, and what I hope for." About everything, tell Sect Master Xu all about it."

"Senior, please speak." Xu Beiyou put his hands on his knees, as if listening attentively.

Xi Chen took a deep breath, and after pondering for a while, slowly said: "The old Taoist will start from the beginning."
