That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 744 The Reason Between Spring and Autumn

But Xu Beiyou didn't immerse himself in sadness for too long, he walked into the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall with the sword box on his back, and then turned around to look at the place where he stood when he first came here.

In that direction, there used to be nine earth immortals who watched the battle, and two of them fought at the peak of the world.

Although the state of Wei is not big, it is a bottomless place. His trip to the state of Wei was an eye-opener. Let alone the king of Wei, the hero of the separatist side, those who seem to be attached to the king of Wei His family should never be underestimated, especially that Mrs. Murong Murong Xuan, whose plans are as big as Wei Wang Xiao Jin, at least bigger than Xu Beiyou who is dedicated to revive the Sword Sect many.

Now that the Taoist sect has intervened, the matter of the Ye family is probably just the tip of the iceberg. Just one Ye family has involved the number two figure of the Taoist sect, Chen Ye. Then looking at the whole matter, it is self-evident that the people behind the scenes, This is no longer something that Xu Beiyou can change by himself. Even if he has the realm of his master Gongsun Zhongmou, and he can hold Zhu Xian to repel the dust leaves, it will not help.

In the Baiyu Square outside the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall, Chen Gongyu, who had been deep in thought, suddenly came back to his senses, looked up, and saw a streak of light flying towards the edge of the sky.

Chen Gongyu reached out to catch it, it was a roll of bamboo slips.

He looked down at the scroll of bamboo slips, with an expression of sadness and joy on his face, and muttered to himself: "Is it Chunqiu? Since Chunqiu belongs to me, then the jade ruler has no chance with me. Li Qingyu and Ye Daoqi don't have the air Only Xie Suqing who is in the imperial capital will take over the jade ruler."

"Thank you Su Qing."

Chen Gongyu sighed for no reason, "Most people in the world have eyes but no eyes, and they all underestimate you, Xie Kangle, but I have never underestimated you. If you can take over the cabinet power of the Daqi court from Han Xuan, Then we may have a chance to play chess in the future.”

Chen Gongyu slowly unfolded the bamboo slips, and it really was the Spring and Autumn Scroll written by the most holy teacher himself.

Xu Beiyou walked out of the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall, happened to see this scene, and asked curiously, "Mr. Yu, is this?"

Chen Gongyu sighed softly, "It's a relic of a new person."

Xu Beiyou suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked softly, "Who is it?"

Chen Gongyu also said softly: "It's a senior of my Confucianism school, Mr. Sun Shiwu has gone."

Xu Beiyou was speechless.

This ending can be said to have been expected and reasonable.

When the two met by chance before, Sun Shiwu said that he would go to King Wei to explain his reasoning, but who is King Wei, who can assassinate His Majesty the current emperor and the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty in the Ming Mausoleum? He would listen to the truth of others, so how could he die at the hands of others so easily.

Chen Gongyu said in a deep voice: "Mr. Sun went to the 'Eastern Capital' city alone, and with his own strength, he broke through countless bows and crossbows defending the city. Even the masters of the Wei palace could not stop Mr. Sun from entering the city. Mr. Sun broke through the city gate. After entering the city, in front of the Weiwang Palace, they encountered the four chief deacons of the Demon Town Palace blocking the way, and the four of them retreated lightly, followed by Chen Ye, the master of the Taomen Town Demon Palace, who personally took action and teamed up with the four chief deacons to form a thunderous formation , but was still smashed by Mr. Sun, not an opponent. In the end, Mr. Sun came to Wei Wang's palace, broke open the heaven and earth picture scroll in Wei Wang's hand with the jade ruler in his hand, and stabbed Wei Wang's chest, but unfortunately failed to hurt the vitals Already exhausted to death."

Xu Beiyou's face was dull, and there was no abnormality just by looking at his expression. After a long silence, he said, "How did Mr. Gongyu know this?"

Chen Gongyu seemed to know that Xu Beiyou would ask this question, so he raised the bamboo slip in his hand, "It's all said here."

Xu Beiyou looked at the bamboo slips in Chen Gongyu's hands, and sighed softly: "If the old man didn't go to Wei Palace alone, what if there are a few more helpers?"

Chen Gongyu shook his head and said: "If that's the case, then it's not just Chen Ye and the four chief deacons of the Demon Suppressing Palace guarding in front of the Wei Palace, maybe the real Taoist teacher will also go down the mountain in person, and the result will still be the same , and maybe even the king of Wei will not be able to see him. Taking a step back, even if we really join forces, Mr. Sun is not going to reason with King Wei, but to assassinate him. So what about Mr. Sun like that? In line with the principle of the most holy teacher, how to cultivate an aura that is invincible to dust leaves? How to tell the truth with spring and autumn and jade ruler? So this kind of thing is the way it is, and it can only be like this."

Xu Beiyou said helplessly: "Whether this kind of thing succeeds or not, it is sure to die."

Chen Gongyu shook his head and said, "Where righteousness lies, there is no regret in death."

Xu Beiyou stopped talking.

Chen Gongyu sighed softly: "The current state of Wei is undercurrents. It seems that the Daoist sect and the king of Wei are of one mind, but in fact they are sharing the same bed with different dreams, and each has their own heart."

Xu Beiyou asked, "How do you say that?"

Chen Gongyu asked back: "It is said that King Wei's heart is known to everyone, so what is King Wei asking for?"

Xu Beiyou replied: "Naturally, it's this vast world, with beautiful rivers and mountains."

Chen Gongyu nodded and said: "That's right, the splendid rivers and mountains, the north and the south, the northwest and the northeast, and the central plains in the south are a complete world. The reason why the king of Wei and the Daoist sect are in one place is because of the existence of the Daqi court. , but the Daoist sect does not want King Wei to seize a complete world, so this becomes the point of difference between the two."

Xu Beiyou asked: "Why doesn't the Daoist sect want King Wei to seize a complete world?"

Chen Gongyu said indifferently: "It's nothing more than eating a ditch to gain wisdom. In the past ten years of fighting for the throne, the Daoist sect helped Xiao Yu win the world and establish Daqi. Later, the Daoist sect found that not only could they not control Daqi, but they were being held hostage by Daqi everywhere." , especially after Xiao Xuan ascended the throne and took power, he suppressed the Daoist sect so much that the Daoist sect had to turn to support Xiao Jin to counter Xiao Xuan. Puppets, maybe they will turn their heads to suppress the Daoist sect like Xiao Xuan did, so what is the difference between Xiao Jin and Xiao Xuan for the Daoist sect?"

Xu Beiyou was shocked beyond words. Chen Gongyu waved his hand and said, "Just as you imagined, the Daoist sect has a bold idea. The power of a country is not easy to control. If a big country is divided into several small countries, there will be no one left." To be able to compete with the Taoist sect, the Taoist sect only needs to use some vertical and horizontal means to sit on the vast world."

Xu Beiyou was silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "At first glance, it seems to be whimsical, but if you think about it, it is not impossible. If Taoism can really do it, wouldn't the world return to the Spring and Autumn Period?"

Chen Gongyu lightly stroked the Spring and Autumn bamboo slips in his hand, and said: "Respecting the king and unifying him is the principle of my Confucian school. The most holy teacher once said that the Spring and Autumn Period is an era when rituals and music collapse, so Mr. Sun's trip to Wei State He brought the Spring and Autumn Volume of the Six Classics of Confucianism, these truths were taught to the King of Wei, so why not tell them to the Taoists? It’s just that the King of Wei and the Taoists insist on going their own way and don’t want to listen.”

Xu Beiyou said softly: "But sometimes, no matter how great a reason is, it is no bigger than a fist. Whoever has a bigger fist will have a bigger reason."

Chen Gongyu smiled, and said: "This is the truth of martial arts, but martial arts conquer the world, so sometimes, the truth of martial arts becomes the truth of the world."
