Tao and Heaven

Chapter 98 Gu's Flattery Skills: Goddess of Luo River

In the sea of ​​qi, the devil sword gradually brightened from darkness, the Buddha sword shone with vast golden light, and the jade sword was calm and moderate.

Gu Wen looked at the three completely opposite sword techniques. Buddha and devil were incompatible, but the jade sword remained independent of the two.

There is a repulsion between the two methods. It stands to reason that practicing the Buddha and Demon swordsmanship together will only lead to infatuation, and one's life will be in danger if one is not careful. Although the Jade Sword does not repel the two, it cannot accept them either, so it will become the same relationship as the Zhaolie Spear and the Heart Sword.

The power of non-interference and one plus one does not equal two may even lead to distraction.

One attack method is enough, different types can be said to be diverse, the same type is really tasteless and a pity to discard. But when the three are put together, the Jade Sword neutralizes the incompatibility between Buddha and Demon, and thus creates a connection with the two.

The three are in a three-way balance, just like three religions that lead to the same destination through different paths.

What would happen if I practiced the three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon?
Gu Wen couldn't help but have this thought in his mind. There was a huge gap between him and the descendants of the three religions, which could not be made up in a day or a night.

He was not arrogant enough to surpass the other party in a short period of time. Take the little nun Yu Jianfo as an example. She almost achieved the sixth level of Taoism and the sixth level of perfection. This means that there are indeed people in the world who can achieve the perfection of Taoism without relying on external factors and purely on talent.

The successor of the Demon Sect has reached the sixth level of perfection in the seventh level of Taoism.

Comparing the two, Gu Wen felt that the Jade Sword Buddha was stronger. This was because he had heard that the clone of the Demon Sect's successor was killed, and he also felt up close the Taoist foundation, Dharma image, and various methods that were almost integrated into one.

There is not a single unnecessary side skill on the Jade Sword Buddha's body, he is like a weakened version of Yu Hua.

"Even if my foundation is equal to theirs, I'm afraid I can't compete with them."

When he saw the descendants of the Buddhist and Demonic religions today, Gu Wen was like a frog in a well seeing the broad daylight.

Even so, they are only in the top three of the Human and Earth lists. There are nine monsters above the Heaven list. How can they be number one if they are so lazy?

Gu Wen opened his eyes and came to Yu Hua's room next door in the middle of the night and pushed the door open. Yu Hua was sitting by the window looking at Tianquan Mountain as usual. The moonlight shining on her made her look even colder.

She usually doesn’t bring a hat to the room, and her face under the moonlight always makes people breathe slower.

She looked back, her smile melted the snow into water, and she said in a clear and elegant voice: "You got the Demon Sword, and now you have the Buddha Sword, and the Jade Purity Sword Art has another name, the Dao Sword. The three swords of Buddha, Dao and Demon, combined together, form the founding method of Zhejian Mountain, which does not exist in Zhejian Mountain."

"The greatest sword of all time, the true sword art that has never been seen before and will never be seen again."

Gu Wen hadn't said anything yet, but Yu Hua seemed to know everything.

He asked, "Were these arranged by fellow Taoist?"

The Jade Purity Sword Art was given by Yu Hua, and the Jade Sword Buddha has a close relationship with Yu Hua. The only uncertainty is the heir of the Demon Sect. The first two are related to her, so it is reasonable if she arranged it.

"No." Yu Hua shook his head and said, "I taught you the Jade Purity Sword Technique because it is the best in the Three Pure Ones Sect, and the Jade Sword Buddha taught you the Buddha Sword just because she wanted to. The Demon Sect's heir just wanted to fool you."

She was not yet strong enough to directly interfere with cause and effect, allowing the strongest swordsmanship of the three religions to converge here. Gu Wen seemed to be able to get something, so he naturally pushed it.

Yu Hua, who was not his, might not be able to help him get it, but no one could take it away from him. She had already missed the chance to become an immortal once, and there would not be a second chance.

"If I didn't have fellow Taoists, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to see Master Yujian Buddha."

Gu Wen shook his head, and suddenly felt Yu Hua's gaze was slightly cold, so he interrupted, "You are both a master and a senior, you are really good at building relationships."

"Well, if you want to ask someone for something, you should call them respectfully."

"Respect like a guest? I heard that nuns have a lot of romantic affairs. It just so happens that men also like these bald-headed girls, just like seductresses like to seduce monks. Taboos always arouse people's imagination."

Yu Hua's voice was calm, just like her usual attitude towards others, but she usually spoke in a softer tone when talking to Gu Wen.

And there is a strong sense of aggressiveness in his words.

Gu Wen felt a little embarrassed. He could sense that something was wrong. It seemed that Yu Hua was being a little protective of his food.

Perhaps it is because it is very common for the three religions to snatch people from each other?

Gu Wen has seen and heard many things. There are three points about the conflict among the three religions. One is the different philosophies, one is the difference in strength, and one is that the old Taoist priests rob the monk children, the monks convert the demons, and the evil women seduce the Taoist priests.

The flow of talent between the three religions is extremely frequent, similar to the integration of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in the previous life. Gu Wen was more convinced after seeing the three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon that the more advanced the skills, the more they lead to the same goal.

Yu Hua's protective attitude towards his talent was normal; no one wanted their genius to be abducted.

"I am not as familiar with her as you are, so I cannot speak directly. Besides, I am determined to become an immortal, and I have no interest in carnal desires, let alone women. Besides, Jade Sword Buddha is not even half as good as you."

In just a breath, Gu Wen showed his extremely high emotional intelligence. He naturally understood the difference between closeness and distance, and he also understood the art of pulling down others.

I'm sorry, little nun!
After all, he had just taken advantage of someone, and now he was dragging him down, which made Gu Wen feel guilty. Yu Hua's brows relaxed, and he said, "The appearance of Jade Sword Buddha is so stunning among the monks that it's a bit too much to say that he is not as good as me."

"Everyone has their own preferences, and whether it looks good or not is subjective."

Gu Wen immediately went downhill, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, thinking about how to please his boss.

It is right to accept favors from others and make them happy. How can I make her happy?

Gu Wen suddenly remembered that the other party always liked to read poetry and songs. Although he would not compose a poem like a literati on weekdays, he always held the poetry book he used to practice calligraphy.

Once again, I would like to ask my ancestors to come to me. Anyway, I have copied it all, so it doesn’t matter if I copy a little more.

"I watch my fellow Taoist walking. He is as graceful as a startled swan and as gentle as a swimming dragon. He is as glorious as the autumn chrysanthemum and as flourishing as the spring pine. He is like a light cloud covering the moon and fluttering like snowflakes blown by the wind."

"The Goddess of Luo River", written by Cao Zhi during the Three Kingdoms period, is the pinnacle of both his lyric writing and his prose writing.

There are too many comments from famous writers. Gu Wen should not have been a literary giant before he traveled through time, so I will not comment much on the great achievements of his ancestor.

He knew that the description of the beauty of the goddess was enough to be sung for thousands of years. Coincidentally, this place was also called Luoshui, and Yu Hua, as a Taoist goddess, was in Luoshui, which was also in line with the original work.

When using it now, he naturally did not mention the place names such as "Mi Fei", "Kyoto Luoyang" and "Juancheng". He just took out a part of it to soothe Yu Hua who was furious.

"I stretch my white arms to the divine shore, and pick the black ganoderma from the rapids."

Having read this, Gu Wen did not continue, as any further reading would have become a confession.

This is obviously not the right positioning for their relationship, and it is not conducive to the current situation. Gu Wen would not talk about love when he needs to practice, and now he does not have enough time to practice.

Love is not a necessity, and there will be plenty of time for it in the future.

Yu Hua was silent for a long time, and Gu Wen gradually became a little nervous. After all, there was always a risk of being exposed if he cut off the beginning and the end.

The two of them were silent for a while. Gu Wen felt that the best strategy was to run away. He took a step back and said, "I am sorry for offending you. I will not disturb you today."

"come over."

Yu Hua finally spoke, and Gu Wen obediently came within three steps of her.

"Come closer."

Gu Wen took two more steps forward, and the two were only one step away.

Yu Hua looked up at him, her eyes ethereal and full of infinite spiritual charm, and she reached out to touch Gu Wen's cheek.

Her voice was softer than ever before, and she asked, "Have you ever told this to anyone else?"

"No."

Gu Wen shook his head following his inexplicable survival instinct, and felt a slight chill on his back.

"If you tell anyone else about this, I'll pull out your tongue."

Yu Hua's voice suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Gu Wen with suspicion. What arose in his heart was not joy, but an inexplicable worry.

Being too talented is not a good thing.

Since he could easily make her feel uncomfortable today, he would be able to deceive countless female cultivators in the future. Even if he didn't take the initiative to attract them, others would take the initiative to find him, just like the nun who had bad intentions this morning.

People with great talent will be looked upon with special eyes wherever they go. If Gu Wen was a genius without any school or sect, he would have been snatched into the Buddhist sect long ago.

She preached in a serious tone, "My Yuqing sect emphasizes purity of mind and few desires. You should know that lust is like a knife scraping bones. I don't know how many young talents have been dragged down by love. I don't want you to waste your talent because of this."

She doesn't like frivolous words?
It turns out that all skills are fake. Only sincerity can move people's hearts, and only successful practice can win the hearts of others.

The advantage of a monk lies in his practice.

Gu Wen felt that he was flattering someone and quickly said, "I will follow your instructions and keep my mind pure and abstain from lust, and I will not indulge in any love affairs or women."

"."

Yu Hua was speechless for a moment, then suddenly tried to persuade him, "There's no need to be so extreme. My Yuqing sect doesn't believe in forgetting one's emotions."
