"Master Zheng." Lin Ji did not reply directly, but stared at Zheng Lixin and said, "Are you willing to answer my three questions truthfully?"
"Heavenly official invites you." Zheng Lixin responded readily: "Zheng must be sincere in his words."
"Okay!" Lin Ji asked, "If there is a unified government, how can we deal with all the people?"
"Safety comes first!" Zheng Lixin replied quickly, "The safety of the people will ensure the prosperity of the country, and the prosperity of the country will lead to the blessing of heaven. The blessing of heaven will be prosperous, and a prosperous age can be expected!"
Lin Ji nodded slightly and asked: "What measures do you want to take to deal with the monks?!"
"The points are the best!" Zheng Lixin said without thinking, "The destiny of heaven is divided, the earth and materials are all shared, the benevolence and cultivation are united, and the great dynasty is forever secure!"
Lin Ji then asked: "How can we respond to the four paths of dragon, demon, ghost and Buddha?"
"Unity is the most important thing!" Zheng Lixin said confidently, "The world is unified, all races have no gaps, one law is the same, and the benevolent are invincible!"
"Good!" Lin Ji praised loudly, "What a benevolent person and invincible!"
"It seems that Mr. Zheng has fully understood the general situation and has already thought about the details. But... Mr. Zheng, has he thought about whether there are any shortcomings here?"
"Huh? I'd like to hear the details!" Zheng Lixin released his two fingers.
Lin Ji took advantage of the situation and put away the grass reed sword.
Outside the small courtyard, a burly iron pig man guarded the door.
Under the peach tree, a skinny Taoist wearing an apricot yellow robe pinched a copper bell.
In the grass reed, Lin Ji and Zheng Lixin sat across the table from each other.
"Master Zheng." Lin Ji pushed the wine glass and lit it on the table. "Even if the Qin family can really make a comeback according to what you said, they are still willing to hand over the country to you. But who can make the monks in the world sit on equal seats and avoid trouble? ?”
"With the remaining power of the Qin family, it may not be impossible to redefine the world. But when facing the Taiyi Sect, Sanshengdong, Taoist Formation Sect, Jindingshan and other ancient sects, what reliance can we rely on to command the world? And with what? What does it mean to be king?"
Zheng Lixin opened his mouth and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Ji with a wave of his hand and continued: "Even if you really have a way to unite the monks in the world, don't forget that Si Wuming is still alive! And he borrowed The opportunity to share the fate of the world may break through the realm of heaven and humanity at any time! Once he comes back to cause another disturbance, who can stop him?! Is it you or the Qin family? Or maybe all the monks in the world will take the lead and fight with him Clean?"
"Although the dragon and demon tribes are far away in the southeast sea, their hearts in serving me in the Nine Provinces have never stopped. How can you convince them that the two tribes will dance together with people and never have a fight with each other for eternity? It is to pay tribute every year and ask for humiliation. Peace? Or raise an army to conquer and fight to the death?"
"The Buddhist Kingdom in the West has always been eyeing it. Although the Buddha Pass is in danger, it is still in danger. Not to mention large-scale conquests to disrupt the Central Plains, how can you calm down just by traveling east to preach? If you carve out a piece of territory, will it happen again in Victoria? ?”
"The Ghost King, who has realized the law of reincarnation through his life and death, has already occupied the two states of Qing and Yan. How can he listen to your mercy and hand over his territory honestly?"
"Qiuru Jun, who is outside the extreme north, was lost for thousands of years due to the joint efforts of the Qin and Bai families. Now, she is connected to the mountains and her spirit body has been restored. How can she let it go?"
"There are all kinds of things here, and things are unpredictable!"
"Although the Qin family is strong, it is only at the end of the war. Even with Mr. Lan's help back then, it was only the first thousand years of Kyushu's prosperity!"
"Master Zheng, I have to say that the three strategies you just made are indeed far-sighted and righteous methods. It's a pity that you underestimated the world!"
"Look!" Lin Ji said, picking up a broad bean from the plate and saying, "If this bean is the capital of Tianjing, the head of the Nine Provinces Dragon Vein." "
With a snap, Lin Ji returned the beans to the plate.
"Then, this dish is Jingzhou. This is Yunzhou in the north, this is Xuzhou in the east, and this is Xiangzhou in the south..."
While talking, Lin Ji moved the cups and placed a map on the table that resembled the world of Kyushu.
"Whether it was the former Holy Emperor or the recently destroyed Great Qin, their territory was no more than the Central Plains of Kyushu. The so-called vastness of the world is just such a tiny table! The so-called endless sea of the dragon and demon clans is also It’s just like you and me sitting on one side. And is this the world?”
Lin Ji said, pointing outward: "If this is the world, then what is this grass reed? Then what is this Tianwai Village? What are the mountains outside the village, and even the nine states thousands of miles away?"
"The world is vast and boundless. It would be short-sighted if Lord Zheng only regards this mere land of nine states as the world, and regards the unification of this place as his great ambition!"
"To be honest." Lin Ji said with a smile, "I thought so before entering the secret realm. But now, this world is no longer in sight! Mr. Zheng, don't you just want to use Qin's power to rule the world and achieve Taoism? ?!"
"If you don't need the Qin family, I can allow you!"
"I promise you a great world!"
"What is this mere Kyushu? It's just a plate of broad beans!"
"What does a mere Daocheng mean? You and I are so close, who says that you and I can't go through the nine realms and ten realms?"
"Back then, Holy Emperor Xuanyuan came out of the whole territory and established the Tao for eternity. Thousands of years ago, Mr. Lan came out halfway to help Qin Ye unify! But now, do you think I am worthy of offering sacrifice to heaven?"
"Of course, if you insist on this and want to unite with Qin to conspire against me, then... Lin will definitely accompany you to the end!"
Lin Ji said, picking up a bamboo chopstick and tapping it lightly on the disk filled with broad beans.
when!
The sound turned into ripples and spread out in all directions.
The surrounding scene changed drastically as the ripples shook and shattered.
Lin Ji was still sitting there holding the bamboo chopsticks in his hands.
But behind Zheng Lixin there was still Lin Ji, with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.
Outside the small courtyard, the strong man Tie Zhu who was guarding the door remained motionless. A long sword suddenly came out and was pressed against his throat. As the ripples vibrated, the sword holder slowly revealed himself, and it turned out to be Lin Ji.
Under the tree in front of the window, a skinny old man in an apricot-yellow robe looked at the figure in green who had appeared in front of him in astonishment. He saw that the sword in the man's hand had already pierced through the robe and was on his heart. Then he saw him... The bell was snatched away from his hand, but he couldn't move at all! I can’t even speak!
Another Lin Ji strolled over and pulled off the charms attached to Zhan Chengfeng and Geng Mu's foreheads.
The two of them were in a trance, looking at Lin Ji with astonishment in their eyes but unable to move at all!
when!
The sound of bamboo chopsticks hitting the porcelain plate fell into my ears.
Uh-huh!
Lin Ji, who were separated in various places, suddenly fell back and merged into one in the blink of an eye. He was still sitting in front of the small table with a smile on his face.
The strong man and the skinny old man seemed to have just walked through the gate of hell. They were in shock, and they were still alive but still dead!
Zhan Chengfeng and Geng Mu were shocked, looked at each other in disbelief, and then stared closely at Lin Ji.
From the beginning to the end, Zheng Lixin sat quietly without moving, looking steadily at Lin Ji without saying a word.
"How?" Lin Ji asked.
It's like a pun, not only asking him how this move of leaving the soul and nine shadows is mysterious, but also asking him how about changing Qin to Lin and conspiring with the world?
