Qiankun Storyteller

Chapter 111 Countermeasures
In front of the door of the Meng family bookstore, under the pile of dead bodies, a monk and a monk recite scriptures.

Suddenly, a strong bloody smell came from behind him, stronger than the dozens of corpses in front of him.

The sound of chanting sutras was interrupted.

The two sat on the ground and remained silent for a long time before standing up and looking behind.

Behind, there was only one person, the linen cloth and white clothes were scarlet, already soaked in blood inside and out, the hair on the face, the whole body was covered with blood, and there were dozens of sword marks and wounds entrenched, the one in the chest was the most terrifying.

"..."

"..."

Looking at Su Wen like this, the two of them didn't know what to say for a while.

After a long time, Zhang Zhou broke the silence: "Killed?"

Su Wen nodded, speaking calmly: "Kill it!"

"..."

Zhang Zhou was silent again for a long time before he said in a cold voice, "Then why don't you leave?"

Su Wen looked at the two of them: "Master Daoist, Master, Su Wen has a heartless request."

Taoist Zhang Zhou and Monk Yunzhen looked at each other, then turned their eyes back: "Speak!"

Su Wen said: "I will leave Yunzhou through the official road, please show the Song family the way, and give them a few words."

"Do you think that the Song family will let the people here go?"

Before Zhang Zhou and Yun Zhen could answer, they heard a cold voice from behind.

"Ok!"

Su Wen's eyes were fixed, and he followed the prestige, only to see an old monk, wearing a cassock and holding a Zen staff, with a majestic demeanor and a hint of compassion.

"Senior host!"

Seeing this person, Yun Zhen was also shocked: "Why did you come here?"

The person who came was Senior Brother Yunzhen, the abbot of Anping Faming Temple.

"If I don't come here, won't the people in this place be implicated?"

After all, the old monk didn't care about Yun Zhen, so he turned his eyes to Su and asked: "Benefactor, the poor monk also has a heartless request!"

Su Wen frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Master, please tell me!"

The old monk put one palm in front of him, and said in the Buddhist ceremony: "The poor monk asks the almsgiver to save the people in Anping!"

Su Wen frowned: "I have sent people to distribute money, so that the people here can move to other places."

The old monk shook his head, vetoed and said: "Even if the people in this place get money, how many people can leave Yunzhou, the donor's move may be useless."

Su Wen's expression didn't change: "Everything should be done!"

The old monk shook his head again: "Benefactor, the more you consider and value the more, the more the Song family will take revenge, do you know?"

Su Wen's expression remained unchanged: "I don't care about it, I don't value it, so the Song family won't take revenge?"

"..."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhou and Yun Zhen who were beside were completely silent.

The old monk also sighed: "Since the benefactor knows the consequences, why should he do it?"

Su Wen stared at him and asked, "Master, is there anything in Buddhism that makes people accept it?"

"..."

The old monk remained silent for a long time, and finally shook his head and said, "Nothing!"

"Among the Buddhist teachings, is there anything that can make people submit to evil spirits?"

"none!"

"Among the Buddhist teachings, is there anything that tells people to bow their heads to evil?"

"none!"

"In Buddhism, is there any saying that eliminating evil is sin?"

"none!"

After three questions and three answers, the old monk's expression remained unchanged: "But there is a theory of cause and effect in Buddhism. The donor should do what he does for himself and bear the cause and effect. How can he hurt the innocent?"

Su Wen looked at the old monk, but did not respond directly, but asked instead: "What does Master want me to do?"

The old monk shook his head and said: "After the Song family came, the poor monk will come forward to persuade them, if they don't get involved and let the people of this place go, that would be the best, but if they insist on massacring this place, the poor The monk hopes that the donor can bear the cause and effect by himself."

"This……"

"Brother!"

These words made Zhang Zhouyunzhen and the two beside him turn pale with shock, they looked at the old monk and didn't know what to do.

Su Wen also looked at the old monk and said, "The master wants me to confer the head on to Mrs. Song?"

"The poor monk knows that this is difficult for the strong."

The old monk's expression was indifferent, and his words were calm: "But the benefactor, the karma is planted by you, and you should bear it."

Hearing this, Su Wen smiled: "Did I plant it?"

The old monk nodded: "This matter started because of the benefactor, and the benefactor planted the cause and effect. If the benefactor hadn't come to this point, there would be no current dilemma."

Su Wen looked at him: "Then according to Master, what should I do before?"

The old monk nodded again: "The benefactor should leave immediately, and should not come to the present situation because of his own anger and selfishness!"

"..."

Su Wen looked at him, shook his head, didn't say anything more, turned around, picked up the torch, and threw it into the pile of firewood.

He killed Song Yu, and the Song family must take revenge.

The main object of revenge must be him.

But he won't stay here until the Song family's army comes to kill him.

His current strength is still unable to compete with the uncrowned king who dominates a state.

Therefore, leaving is inevitable, staying can only wait for death.

But once he, the chief culprit, leaves, the Song family will not be able to avenge their great vengeance, will they anger the people here?
I will!
In this way, wouldn't he implicate innocent people again?
So, was he wrong?
Shouldn't he have resisted?

Shouldn't he seek justice for the dozens of lives that were innocently killed in this Meng family bookstore?

Yes, he shouldn't, because it will implicate more innocent people and cause more innocent deaths and injuries!
For the justice of dozens of people, you disregard the lives of thousands of people, is that right?

wrong!

Certainly not!

Even Taoist priest Zhang Zhou and monk Yunzhen felt that he was wrong.

The old monk even spoke bluntly, saying that he wanted to vent his anger for a while, disregarding the overall situation, and disregarding the seriousness.

He shouldn't take revenge, he shouldn't bring tens of millions of people who are still alive to death for the dozens of people who have already died!
He was wrong!
He was dead wrong!

So what is right?

go!
Going away is the most correct choice. As long as he, the rightful lord, leaves, no matter how vicious and ruthless Song Yu is, he will not attack the people in Anping. At most, he will be implicated. Those who can attract his attention and those that can force him to show up will be taken.

For example... the clans, relatives, and friends of dozens of people in the Meng Family Bookstore.

Although these people will also become victims, it is acceptable to sacrifice a small number of people for the sake of the overall situation and for the majority of people.

What's more, Song Yu might not necessarily do this, maybe, once Su Wen left, he would also leave, no one would be implicated, no one would be sacrificed.

Isn't this the best option?
Why implicate tens of thousands of living people for dozens of dead people?
Just for your so-called justice?

Or is it for your own anger, your own feelings, to make you feel at ease, to make you feel that you are worthy of the dozens of lives implicated by you?

You are so selfish!
You are so vicious!
……

The old monk didn't say this, but the meaning was the same.

Compared with the overall situation, compared with the whole, the sacrifice of a small number of people is acceptable, and the justice of a small number of people can be discarded!

Take care of the overall situation!

Distinguish the seriousness!

You shouldn't resist, you shouldn't seek justice, you shouldn't even leave, you shouldn't cause so much trouble, you shouldn't attract Song Yu's attention, you are the culprit, you are the root of all evil!

You... damn it!
Yes, you should die, as long as you die, Song's anger will subside and everything will return to normal.

For the sake of the overall situation, you go to hell!
"This……"

Yun Zhen shrank his pupils and looked at the old monk: "Senior brother!"

The old monk shook his head, suppressed Yun Zhen's words, fixed his eyes on Su and asked, "What does the benefactor think?"

Su Wen turned around and looked at the old monk: "Master, can Su Wen be allowed to offend?"

The old monk's expression remained unchanged, and he said softly: "The benefactor has something to say, just speak it out."

"Then Su asked bluntly!"

Su Wen's eyes turned cold, and he looked at the old monk: "The words of the master seem to be compassionate from the Buddha, but they are actually evil from the devil!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, the old monk was not angry: "Why did the benefactor say such a thing?"

Su asked coldly:

"Facing the butcher's knife, it is foolish to kneel down and beg for mercy!"

"To be insensitive, to live in an ignoble existence, is ignorance!"

"It is a crime to turn good into evil, and to be a tiger's minion!"

"Converting black and white, disregarding good and evil, is evil!"

"So, is it Buddha or demon, black or white, good or evil, right or wrong?"

"!!!"

Zhang Zhou and Yun Zhen were shocked.

Looking at the old monk again, he was silent.

Su Wen ignored him, turned around and left.

"Mourners are everywhere and the city is full of blood."

"It's nothing more than saving the common people with one thought."

"This blood started from Su Wen!"
