Zhutian: Everything starts from becoming a disciple of Uncle Jiu!

Chapter 612 Zhao Zheng: I understand, they must have offended God!
“Your Highness, you… you just ate… swallowed up your own evil thoughts?!”

Realizing that what he saw was not an illusion but something real happening before his eyes, Taoist Qingwei widened his eyes and asked in a tone of disbelief and uncertainty. His expression could no longer maintain the sage-like look he had before.

It wasn't that the scene before his eyes was too exaggerated, but it was beyond the understanding of Qingwei Zhenren. You know, he had been thinking about how to purify evil thoughts for a full twenty-five years.

Twenty-five years ago, in order to deal with the alliance between the evil spirit world and the demon world that invaded the human world, the five brothers used the Pure Purity Method to eliminate the evil thoughts in their bodies, leaving behind the disaster.
The five brothers have been trying to find ways to purify and clear the evil thoughts, but unfortunately, they have had little success.

No, to be precise, it has no effect. For this reason, they can only allow evil thoughts to continuously devour the evil thoughts of all beings in the Three Realms and Six Paths in the Demon Locking Tower of Shushan to strengthen themselves.

But now, this prince actually solved his evil thoughts in front of him, which... made him feel incredible, and they had a second choice, another choice to send the evil thoughts to the divine realm for purification!

"Why, you can't?"

"..."

"Oh, you really can't!"

Zhao Zheng took a look at what Qingwei Zhenren was thinking at the moment, shook his head and said: "My method is not suitable for you!"

As he spoke, he paused, looked at the puzzled look in Qingwei Zhenren's eyes, thought for a moment and said, "What do you think evil thoughts are?"

"This...is naturally the negative emotions in people's hearts!"

Taoist Qingwei thought about it and said that he did not mention the three poisons and six desires mentioned in Taoism. After all, this was not comprehensive.

How can human evil thoughts be summarized by the three poisons and six desires? Even if they are summarized by the five poisons and six desires, seven emotions and eight sufferings of Buddhism, it is still not a complete summary.

"Negative, then what is positive?"

Zhao Zheng asked back, watching Qingwei Zhenren fall into deep thought. He thought for a moment and continued, "The definition of good and evil actually comes from humans... It also comes from the heavens and the earth, and from all living beings..."

Zhao Zheng stopped talking after this. Some things just need to be said briefly. Besides, he didn't like to talk about big principles.

Of course, he could still talk about the matter of evil thoughts. In fact, the birth of evil thoughts... could only be said to be in line with the operation of heaven and earth, because without evil thoughts there would be no righteous thoughts.

This is part of the operation of heaven and earth, this is the rule of the operation of heaven and earth, this is one of the underlying logics of building the world. However, there are also ways to prevent the birth of evil thoughts.

Just as it is bluntly written in Volume 98 of "Yunji Qijian": "If the mind is firm and the will is calm, there will be no evil thoughts." The so-called evil thoughts are nothing more than scattered thoughts. As long as you have reached that level and state of mind, then naturally no evil thoughts will arise.

Just like him, he can actually have no evil thoughts at all, he can even completely achieve the so-called supreme state of forgetfulness of emotions.

To reach the supreme state where the body is in harmony with the sky, the mind is in harmony with the Tao, and the Tao is always inaction, pure, and without emotions. However, he did not do so because he felt that it would take away a lot of fun.

Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng retracted his gaze and looked at the thoughtful Qingwei Zhenren. He said bluntly: "To put it bluntly, you are not strong enough!"

"..."

"Yes, what I mean is that when you are strong enough, you can purify not only your own evil thoughts, but all the evil thoughts in the Three Realms and Six Paths!"

Zhao Zheng continued, and after he finished speaking, he glanced at Xuejian who was asking Xu Changqing questions outside the living room, then retracted his gaze and looked at Qingwei Zhenren who looked like he had something to say and had a hopeful look in his eyes: "I can't help you, after all, I'm not a savior!"

"Your Majesty..."

"You should call me Grandmaster!"

Zhao Zheng smiled slightly, and as he put on a green Taoist robe, a golden wheel condensed from pure merit behind his head manifested a round light, and seventy-two colors of light emanated from his body, evolving an incredible world.

Although he said that the 'Three Pure Ones' in this world are not the Three Pure Ones, he also said that the Three Pure Ones do exist in this world, but they are just relatively low-key.

After all, if the Three Pure Ones did not exist, how could there be Taoism in this world? Similarly, if the Three Pure Ones did not exist, there would not be many Taoist sects such as Shushan in this world. Therefore, it was not wrong for him to say to Qingwei Zhenren that he was the ancestor.

thump—

"Qingwei pays homage to the ancestor!"

Qingwei Zhenren knelt down, kneeling very thoroughly, but this was not because he was afraid of Zhao Zheng’s strength, but because the aura emanating from Zhao Zheng… was even more Shushan than his! !

"???"×2
Not to mention Xuejian's expression outside the living room, which made her realize that Zhao Zheng was so much older than her. Xu Changqing's expression was a bit dull as he looked at his kneeling master, then at Zhao Zheng.

Therefore,
Senior is... my ancestor?!
The thought that the senior was my ancestor did not last long, as Tang Kun brought Master Jingming to apologize.

"Hey, what's the point of apologizing or not? I'm not a narrow-minded person. How can I blame you for visiting others first!" Zhao Zheng said with a smile. By the way, let me add that he was just a little angry.

"..."×2+3
Tang Kun finally understood why his Tang Family Fort was surrounded by soldiers. His mouth twitched and he quickly lowered his head. Zhenren Jingming also understood why his master brother came here.

Xu Changqing was stunned for a moment, and then he understood and his expression was a little complicated. It was not because the senior suddenly became the ancestor, but mainly because he felt that the ancestor's mind...

It seems a little bit not so wide!!
Xue Jian didn't think too much about it, and didn't even care about the dull expression on Jingming Zhenren's face because Qingwei Zhenren called Zhao Zheng Zushi.

She just looked at his grandfather Tang Kun's pale face with worry in her heart. Thinking about the fact that Qingwei Zhenren had to call Zhao Zheng the Grandmaster, she couldn't help but say.

"Please help me, Your Majesty..."

"It's getting late, come and eat!"

Zhao Zheng interrupted Xue Jian and said, "Please, he is very busy, he has no interest in saving Tang Kun. Besides, you have asked Master Jingming to help, it would be bad if he takes action too. If it gets out, people will think he is bullying the younger generation."

Soon, as everyone arrived at the restaurant, the maids from the palace brought the food and everyone started to eat. The meal was a great success for both the host and the guests. Zhao Zheng was very happy anyway.

As lunch was over, Zhao Zheng began to chase people away. After leaving the palace gate, Master Jingming couldn't help but ask, "Brother, is the prince really the founder of our Shushan Sect?"

It’s not a matter of belief or not. The main reason is that he didn’t want to acknowledge this ancestor after being humiliated by Zhao Zheng for a long time at the dinner table.

“…Guaranteed authenticity!”

Taoist Qingwei was silent for a while and nodded. Other things might be faked, but the aura of Zhao Zheng, which was more orthodox than that of the Taoist master of Mount Shu, could not be faked.

"I wonder who the Grandmaster learned from?"

The one who spoke was Xu Changqing. Upon hearing this, Master Jingming immediately said, "Yes, Senior Brother, which ancestor did this prince learn from?"

"……have no idea!"

Also, I don’t think this is important!
After looking up at the sky for a moment, True Man Qingwei retracted his gaze, regained his immortal demeanor, glanced at grandfather and grandson Xuejian, and said to True Man Jingming and Xu Changqing.

"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, it's time for me to go back to Shushan. Junior Brother, Changqing, you stay here and continue to deal with the poisoner. Also, remember not to disturb the master..."

Qingwei Zhenren finally explained that he was not afraid that Zhao Zheng had a bad temper. On the contrary, he thought Zhao Zheng should have a good temper, but... Zhao Zheng's personality...

Rumbling--

Tick ​​tock, tick tock, tick tock——

The thunder was gone in an instant, and heavy rain poured down. The speed was so fast that Master Qingwei was soaked like a drowned chicken before he could even react.

"Hey, this rain is so strange!"

In the distant sky, Zhao Zheng, who was not wet by the rain and was using the cloud-flying technique to lead his 800 soldiers to Anning Village to continue hunting, looked at Qingwei Zhenren and others who were soaked like drowned rats and thought strangely.

After thinking about it, Zhao Qingtian understood. It must be that Taoist Qingwei had done something bad to anger the just and selfless God. Otherwise, why would God send down such a strange rain?

"A group of people full of evil thoughts..."

Zhao Qingtian turned around with a sigh, and had a new understanding of the Pure Dharma that he had deduced to the Daluo version.

"If we can kill evil thoughts, does that mean we can kill righteous thoughts as well? Hmm? Why does it feel like we can kill the three corpses?"

Zhao Zheng was surprised in his heart. The beheading of the three corpses he was talking about was not the same three corpses he beheaded when he beheaded Xue Gu, but the so-called method of becoming a saint by beheading the three corpses.

"Hmm? It seems that the theories between the two are quite similar..." Zhao Zheng started to modify the deduction. ...

evening,

As the sun sets,

Anning Village, outside the village.

"It's strange. It's been two days. Where on earth has this snake gone? Why hasn't it appeared yet? Could it have gone home to feed its child?"

Zhao Zheng, who had stopped hunting long ago and sent the soldiers back, looked strangely at the tavern in front of him that was still empty and had a human-shaped hole in it. He looked at the mountains in the distance and found that the Saint Lady had long disappeared. Feeling bored, he looked towards Anning Village.

In the village,

Wan Yuzhi's home.

Gao Yong, who was able to get out of bed, frowned slightly as he looked at the various dishes on the table. It was not that the food was too simple, on the contrary, it was very rich.

So rich that it's a bit luxurious!!

"Come, drink this bowl of ginseng soup first before eating!"

Wan Yuzhi placed the steaming ginseng soup on the table in front of Gao Yong and said, Gao Yong nodded, but when he smelled the rich ginseng aroma wafting from the bowl, his brows slightly frowned and he opened his mouth, but said nothing.

"what happened?"

Wan Yuzhi, who was sitting next to Gao Yong, asked softly and concernedly. Gao Yong forced a smile, or rather, forced an unnatural smile on his face.

"nothing……"

As he spoke, he picked up the spoon and drank a sip of ginseng soup, but soon he couldn't help but speak and told his thoughts.

Or,

His opinion!

Gao Yong didn't say much, just asked whether Wan Yuzhi was a bit too extravagant in spending money, and that she shouldn't spend money like that.

This is not because Gao Yong is stingy, nor is it because he is distressed, but it is just a mentality that he has as he was born in an ordinary family.

Wan Yuzhi frowned for a moment. She looked at Gao Yong, who suddenly seemed not so cool. Her heart was in a mess for no reason. Then she quickly regained her gentle smile and said, "I know, but these are actually not worth spending... ahem..."

Wan Yuzhi realized she had said too much and coughed twice with her hands covering her mouth with an unnatural look on her face. She looked at Gao Yong's hand that was about to pat her on the back, and for some reason she subconsciously dodged it.

"Okay, drink the ginseng soup quickly..."

"Um……"

Gao Yong nodded without thinking too much, just thinking that Wan Yuzhi must be in a bad mood because of what he said, so she dodged it.

Soon, after they finished drinking the ginseng soup, the two of them had a simple meal. Wan Yuzhi took out the jade bottle containing the elixir, poured out a pill and handed it to Gao Yong.

"Give!"

"Oh, by the way, Yuzhi, I haven't asked you yet, where did you get this pill from?" Gao Yong asked curiously after taking the pill.

Although he didn't know how serious his illness was, he learned from Wan Yuzhi that ordinary doctors seemed unable to cure him.

"...a Taoist priest who passed by gave it to me. He saw you unconscious..." Wan Yuzhi made up an excuse with an even more unnatural expression on her face.

Gao Yong nodded and said, "I see. Do you still remember what the Taoist priest looks like and where he lives? When I get better, we will pay him a visit and thank him!"

"Well, let's talk about it when you get better..."

Wan Yuzhi's expression became even more unnatural. After she finished speaking, she said, "I'll go wash the dishes," and started to pack up and leave the room.

As if he hadn't noticed Wan Yuzhi's expression change at all, Gao Yong continued, "By the way, Yuzhi, did you pay the Taoist priest for the consultation?"

After saying this, he frowned slightly when he didn't get Wan Yuzhi's answer. However, after feeling that his body had gotten better, he smiled happily and said, "When I get back, I will definitely thank the Taoist priest for saving my life!"

Hearing these words, Wan Yuzhi, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, loosened her grip, and the bowl fell to the ground with a snap, breaking into several pieces.

Wan Yuzhi subconsciously reached out to pick up the broken bowl on the ground, but quickly withdrew her hand with a cry of pain.

Just as she was frowning at her cut finger, she saw her little hand being grabbed by a big hand.

"Hey, why are you so careless!"

"You... let go!"

When she saw who was coming, Wan Yuzhi's expression changed slightly. She quickly withdrew her hand, turned around, quickly closed the kitchen door, and frowned.

"you……"

As she spoke, she was stunned, and when she found that her finger didn't hurt, she looked at her finger, and when she did, she found that the wound on her finger was gone.

"How about it, I'm awesome!"

"...You...don't forget, we agreed that what happened last night was just a deal. After last night, there will be nothing between you and me anymore!" Wan Yuzhi said with a cold face.

"Oh……"

Zhao Zheng said "oh" and showed just the right amount of unhappiness on his face, which made Wan Yuzhi feel confused and she frowned and said quickly.

"Ma...please leave here quickly!"

"Oh!"

Zhao Zheng glanced at Wan Yuzhi, turned around, and his figure gradually became illusory. At the same time, he began to count silently in his heart.

"three two……"

"Wait a minute... Don't get me wrong, I just want to thank you... for what you did for me in this town!" Wan Yuzhi stopped Zhao Zheng and said with a red face and lowered head.

"No need to thank me. After all, you are my first woman... Forget it, I'm leaving. By the way, I'm going to go out to fight those Khitans tomorrow..." Zhao Zheng paused and looked into Wan Yuzhi's eyes. Wan Yuzhi lowered her head because she was being looked at.

"Shouldn't this matter be the responsibility of those generals?"

Thinking about the first few words "female", Wan Yuzhi lowered her head and spoke in a confused tone. After she finished speaking, she heard Zhao Zheng's answer: "There is no way. My nephew, the emperor, wants to kill me as his uncle. If I don't come back..."

Wan Yuzhi looked at the land deed and house deed handed to her by Zhao Zheng with confusion. She raised her head and looked at Zhao Zheng, and then listened to what Zhao Zheng said.

"Don't think too much, I picked it up!"

"..."

"Take it!"

"Ah."

"Oh, that's it, let's go, bye..."

Zhao Zheng turned around and waved, and began counting silently in his heart again. When Wan Yuzhi asked again, "Wait a minute", his eyebrows raised.

Without him,

He can eat fox tonight!!
