Chapter 101: There is still one more round for Sanghai!
"Sand will eventually be carried into the sea by the waves, and the first wave will always be the first." Lord Chu Nan said, "Your Highness, you don't think there will be no more waves near Sanghai City, do you?"
"It looks like there will be a bigger wave." Ying Xiao said with a smile.
"That's natural. The calmer the sea surface is, the more likely it is that once a wave appears, it will overturn the world. No matter how big the ship is, it will just float on the water." Lord Chu Nan said.
"But senior, without wind, there will be no so-called waves. And I, the king, can control the wind between heaven and earth. Do you believe it, senior?" Ying Xiao grinned and repeated.
"The wind is invisible, no one can control it. The only things that can control the wind are invisible things, such as this wordless book." Chu Nan said impartially.
As he spoke, he took out the wordless heavenly book that he had put into his sleeve.
"I have always believed that after me, there will only be one person in the world who can be the master of this wordless heavenly book, and that person is Zifang."
"Oh..." Ying Xiao whispered.
With narrowed eyes, he sneered in his heart, "This old fellow still hasn't given up on Zifang. This is beyond my expectation."
"But he has already refused. A man like Zifang, once he refuses, will refuse forever."
"No one can refuse the wordless book." Lord Chu Nan said with a smile, raising his old eyes, full of confidence.
"Anyone will reject the Wordless Book of Heaven, because the world doesn't need it." Ying Xiao said, "Such a world will also make the senior put down the book in his hand."
"Your Highness, a book is the world. The so-called world and a thousand years of time are ultimately just recorded in a book, isn't it?" Chu Nan said fairly.
"But books are written by people. Even if it is a wordless book, it needs people to read it and read it carefully. After all, the leaders are still people." Ying Xiao said.
"Then let the final result speak for itself. In Sanghai City, your Highness and I each have one last chance to make a move in this game of chess." Lord Chu Nan's voice began to become heavy.
"Taoism?" Ying Xiao asked.
"All schools of thought originated from Taoism. Jiang Taigong, the master of all schools of thought, was originally just the ancestor of Taoism." Chu Nangong said, "Taoism is the master of Confucianism, and Confucianism is the child of Taoism."
"Confucius once asked Laozi three times for advice."
"Those three times of asking questions completely established the relationship between master and disciple, and father and son."
"What you said is correct. It seems that this time, I will not be able to make a move." Ying Xiao said, "After all, what can compare to the relationship between master and disciple, and the relationship between father and son..."
At this moment, although Ying Xiao looked normal on the surface, he was already feeling heavy in his heart.
Confucius asked Laozi three times. This matter may not have been so simple in the past. It is very likely that this matter affected the decision of Confucianism at that time.
"In a game of chess, in the final stage, I only have one more piece than Your Highness. Your Highness does not lose, after all, I have lived for a long time." Lord Chu Nan said with a smile.
"One son controls the world. Gains and losses depend on this son. Senior Nan Gong said that it is just one more son. This is too much of a joke." Ying Xiao said.
His tone gradually became heavier. "Since Senior can escape from the Zhenlong chess game, then I may not be unable to find a place to place the pieces. And this new place to place the pieces may be able to accommodate two pieces."
"At that time, I will have one more son than Senior Nangong."
"Your Highness has a good chess move. I will wait and see." Lord Chu Nan whispered.
“I won’t let Senior Nan Gong down. And I believe that from the very beginning, I have indeed not let Senior Nan Gong down.” Ying Xiao said with a smile.
"That's true..." Lord Chu Nan said in a low voice.
How dare he look down on Ying Xiao?
He kept thinking about what Ying Xiao had just said in his mind, and looking at Ying Xiao's extremely confident eyes, Chu Nangong felt that his confidence was constantly declining.
"Senior Nan Gong, I am taking my leave now. Today is the last round in Sanghai City. Both you and I will have a beginning and an end, so there will definitely be winners and losers." After bowing, Ying Xiao left.
Ying Xiao's main purpose for coming here was actually to protect Zhang Liang.
Since Zhang Liang had left safely, there was no need for him to stay too long.
"King Wu, this last round is the most important one in Sanghai City. This wordless heavenly book will eventually fall into Zifang's hands, and Zifang will become an arm to overthrow your Great Qin Empire." Looking at where Ying Xiao left, Duke Chu Nan murmured.
"Even if you know that Chu is the last of Qin, even if there are only three households left, what does it matter? Little do you know that the real situation in the world is that the mantis stalks the cicada, while the oriole is waiting behind."
"You set up a game of Zhenlong for me on the chessboard, so I will return the game to you in the entire Sanghai."
......
"Once upon a time, Confucius asked Laozi for advice three times. What was the point of this? This is probably the reason why Mr. Chu Nan was confident that the Taoist clan could defeat Confucianism." On the way back to Haiyue Cottage, Ying Xiao pondered.
"However, Taoism is not limited to the human sect."
"Taoism, and Tianzong."
"Lord Chu Nan, it seems that he doesn't know that Jia Tian Zong is under the command of Da Qin."
After returning to Haiyue Cottage, Ying Xiao immediately called Meng Yi and asked, "What's the situation at the Taoist Tianzong?"
"Master Xiaomeng has come out of seclusion and should arrive in Sanghai soon." Meng Yi said.
"This woman is very arrogant. I will go to greet her in person. Besides, if she is the only one to come forward for some things, the weight may not be enough." Ying Xiao said.
"Go tell Fusu that it's his turn to come forward. It's time for him to go to Xiaoshengxian Manor. In this way, during the few days when I'm away, there will still be major events happening in Sanghai City that will attract enough attention."
"Yes, Your Highness." Meng Yi nodded.
"Let Mr. Zongheng go together." Ying Xiao said again.
......
After giving the order, Ying Xiao left Haiyue Cottage quietly.
They first came to a scattered village outside Sanghai City, where Ying Xiao met the Master of Lishu again.
Inside the thatched cottage, the Lishu Master said respectfully, "Your Highness, have we started the action?"
"Senior, it will take some time. I came here just to trouble you. Fusu is going to Xiaoshengxianzhuang, but it is not suitable to bring too many Black Spear Cavalry there. But I am still worried about Zongheng and the other two." Ying Xiao said.
"After all, the Taoist sect's people are not weak this time."
"Your Highness, I understand. I will go there." The Master of Lishu nodded.
"Thank you for your help, Senior..."
......
Soon, the news of Fusu's official visit to Xiaoshengxianzhuang spread throughout Sanghai City.
On the hill, inside the wooden house, Duke Chu Nan was very confused, "Is it just Fusu who is visiting? Why didn't King Wu Ying Xiao come to visit? What is the purpose of Fusu's visit at this time?"
For a moment, Chu Nangong thought of many possibilities...
Suddenly, his old eyes turned, flashing with a strong brilliance, and he said to himself, "Fusu's visit must be just to attract my attention. King Wu Yingxiao must have real actions."
"What could it be?"
"What kind of chess piece can stop the final game of Sanghai City?"
"Taoist Tianzong..."
Lord Chu Nan was Lord Chu Nan after all, and he figured out the answer.
Chapter 102 Two paths together!
"The Taoist Tianzong, will they also join in?"
Lord Chu Nan said in a deep voice, "In this game, they may indeed be the real place where King Wu Yingxiao will make his move. They cannot join the game. Confucianism and Zifang must become the old white chess pieces in this game."
The yin and yang energies slowly rose from Lord Chu Nan's body and transformed into a three-legged golden crow.
One of the supreme yin-yang arts—the three-legged golden crow.
"Three of you, what decision will you make? I hope you won't disappoint me..." Looking at the direction where the three-legged golden crow flew, Lord Chu Nan murmured.
......
At this time, it was already night. No matter how bustling Sanghai City was during the day, it was now lonely. Only the occasional lights and scattered moonlight illuminated everything.
The three-legged golden crow landed on the eaves of an inconspicuous wooden house.
The wooden house has three floors, and there are three people on each of the three floors.
They were all old men with white hair and beards, all dressed in Taoist robes.
One of them was meditating in a high position, and it was obvious that he had a higher status among the three. The other two were meditating on both sides.
The moment the three-legged golden crow arrived, the three of them opened their eyes at the same time.
"Uncle Fei, Senior Nan Gong actually sent us a message. This is really rare." The other two looked at the one in the high position and spoke in surprise.
"It is indeed rare." The uncle nodded. "Obviously, things have changed, and they have changed drastically."
This uncle Shifei is called Qi Shifei, one of the four Qis of the Taoist sect, and has an extraordinary status in Taoism.
The other two are from two of the four sects of the Taoist clan: Taoist Xiran and Taoist Beiyou, also known as Xiranzi and Beiyouzi, both of whom are of the same generation as Xiaoyaozi.
One and two, this is the Taoist clan's trump card when they come to Sanghai this time.
As he spoke, Qi Shifei raised his eyes and looked towards the window. His Taoist inner strength was released invisibly, the window opened, and the three-legged golden crow entered, landed on his left shoulder, and slowly dissipated.
Soon after, Qi Shifei also received the news conveyed by Lord Chu Nan.
"It turns out that Fusu's visit to Xiaoshengxianzhuang was not to prevent us from entering Confucianism temporarily, but to conceal our whereabouts." Qi Shifei said, "King Wu Yingxiao is probably not in Sanghai City at the moment."
"But I went to find Tianzong."
"What, Tianzong is going to enter the secular world?" Hearing Qi Shifei's words, Taoist Xiran and Taoist Beiyou were both shocked, and their expressions became solemn.
"It seems so, otherwise King Wu Ying Xiao would not have left Sanghai at this time." Qi Shifei said with certainty.
"Hasn't the Tian Sect always claimed to be above the heaven and earth, and regarded everything as ordinary people and ordinary things, and disdained to care about them?" Taoist Beiyou said, "What happened this time? Are they also going to enter this mundane world?"
“Hmph! It is obvious that the Human Sect is the Taoist way. The so-called Heaven Sect is nonsense and the wishful thinking of fools.” Taoist Xiran sneered.
"Now is not the time to argue about these things. If Tianzong really intervenes in this matter, it will be very difficult for us this time." Qi Shifei's tone gradually became cold.
“The hearts of the people in the world cannot be separated from Confucianism.”
"To lose Confucianism is to lose the hearts and minds of more than half of the people in the world."
"That's Uncle Fei, what should we do?" Taoist Xiran and Taoist Beiyou both asked.
"If we have different ideals, we cannot work together." Qi Shifei said with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Taoist Xiran and Taoist Beiyou looked at each other and nodded slowly, "Yes, people with different ideologies cannot work together. This has been destined for a long time."
"A disciple sent a message that Xiao Meng has come out of retreat." Qi Shifei whispered, "and has also come down the mountain. If my guess is correct, she will meet with Wu Wang Ying Xiao."
"Xiao Meng is indeed the most talented prodigy in the history of Tianzong. Although her master is nominally only Bei Mingzi, in fact, the Four Laws and Four Truths of Taoist Tianzong are all her master." Taoist Xiran said.
“Senior Brother Xiran, Xiaoyaozi from our Human Sect is not bad either. He is a late bloomer and attained enlightenment overnight. He is a true genius.” Taoist Beiyou said.
“Whether it’s natural talent or late bloomer, it’s all a process. The result is the most important. If there is no process…” Qi Shifei whispered, but the murderous intent in his whisper was extremely strong.
"Xiao Meng pursues the Heavenly Dao of the Tian Sect and is also known as the darling of Heavenly Dao. Only when he disappears between heaven and earth can he be eternal."
"Uncle Master is right." Taoist Xiran and Taoist Beiyou looked at each other, and their old eyes under their pale brows showed meaningful smiles.
"The Master of Lishu, a name that is considered legendary." Qi Shifei suddenly said, "Even the Ninth Master of Li, one of the Masters of Arms, is somewhat afraid of him."
"Therefore, the Ninth Lord of Li left Songhai."
"Uncle-master, I think the Ninth Li Lord is not afraid of him, the Master of Lishu, but it is just because of the agreement between them. With your wisdom, why should you be afraid of him, the Master of Lishu?" Taoist Xiran said to the Master of Lishu with disdain.
"Xi Ran, don't be so arrogant." Hearing Taoist Xi Ran say this, Qi Shifei said very seriously.
"Yes, uncle-master..." Taoist Xiran bowed and nodded quickly.
"But since his master is here, I cannot but give him face. You will have to teach the younger generation Xiaomeng from Tianzong what Taoism is. If she remains stubborn, then we can only..." Qi Shifei said as his figure disappeared in the wooden house on the third floor.
......
After Ying Xiao left, Master Li Shu walked out of the scattered village and came to a forest on the other side of Xiaoshengxian Manor.
In the silent night, there were only fallen leaves floating in the wind, but suddenly, a butterfly that seemed both real and unreal appeared.
At that moment, the master of the art seemed to enter a dream.
But he smiled slightly, and moved the feather fan in his hand slightly, and the so-called dream disappeared.
"Since my old friend is here, we should use the mountains, rivers and leaves as tea in this forest. Master Lishu would like to offer a cup to my old friend." Master Lishu smiled, and thousands of leaves appeared. The moisture contained in the leaves condensed into water droplets at this moment, and then gathered into a stream of water.
The water flow formed a word "术" (art) and went towards the butterfly that was both real and illusory.
The butterfly turned into water and condensed into the word "Tao".
After the two words collided, the internal force came quickly and went away quickly, passing in an instant, and it seemed as if nothing had happened here, and the original calmness had been restored.
