The sound is majestic and holy, the sky opens and the clouds disperse, and the vast world unfolds its colors. All the misery and sadness dissipated, and the disturbed creatures felt peaceful. The old Taoist Wuji was even shaken back a few steps by the sound. The Taoist priests raised their heads and saw a little Taoist carrying a bamboo basket floating calmly down in the sky. Then he picked up the baby on the ground and protected it in his arms. Everyone was talking in shock, "The sect's holy candidate, Qingtian Taoist! Why is he here?"
Seeing the visitor, Wuji Taoist was so angry that he rebuked, "Taoist Qingtian, you are too presumptuous. How dare you show off your magic in front of our elders. If you don't hand over your sins, you will be severely punished according to the rules of the sect." Taoist Qingtian looked at it. Seeing that the baby in his arms was fine, he calmly bowed to the Taoist priest and said, "Taoist Wuji forgives any offence. Everyone, please wait for a moment. I will have something to say later." After saying that, he calmly held the baby and walked to Taoist Aunt Qinye.
"As expected of the heir to the head of the Tiandao Sect. Seeing his momentum and calmness, even Ba Lei Chong doesn't look down on him. He really has the demeanor and stability of the future sect leader." The young Taoist priests admired him and were quite excited about the good show that was to come. expect.
Taoist Qingtian came to Taoist Qinye and drew several "Wood Spirit Restoration Seals" with one hand in the air to reorganize the Taoist aunt's injured tendons and broken bones, and healed most of her injuries. Then he returned the baby to her arms and comforted her: "Senior sister, don't worry. Since Qingtian Taoist priest is here, he will protect your twins." Kotonoye cried with joy, her face pressed against the baby, showing the gentlest and kindest face. There was no elixir or magic weapon in the six realms that could comfort and reassure her more than the twins in her arms.
Qingtian Taoist stood up, turned around and looked at the old Taoists again, and said loudly: "The devil is dead, and the young son is innocent. Taoist lords, please consider the virtue of Qingtian and spare their lives." Everyone was shocked and doubtful, Qingtian Taoist is the Taoist of Heaven. The only holy choice of the sect, and also the future master of the Tiandao sect known to everyone. He, a Taoist priest, wanted to save the demon son. Such behavior was no less than betraying the entire Taoist sect, which was really puzzling.
Seeing that the other party wanted to protect evil, the Wuji Taoist drew the Yangpo Divine Sword again, and the mountains and forests were blazing again. His strong threats were frightening, "Qingtian Taoist, don't be so presumptuous. You are so young, how can you know the dangers of demons. Born from human demons They must be evil that brings harm to the world. If they are allowed to live, they will kill countless lives in the future. I advise you to retreat quickly, otherwise my demon-slaying sword will show no mercy."
Qingtian Taoist said calmly: "The devil is not in identity and race, but in people's hearts. The antagonism and hatred passed down from generation to generation between the Taoist sect and the demon clan is the real disaster. Everything is born with its own cause and effect. The demon clan is a person born in the dark. , has existed for hundreds of thousands of years, even longer than the history of the human race. Only the balance of yin and yang can lead to this colorful world. There are no purely evil and unkind races in the world. The demons also have benevolence, and they are also the primates born of heaven and earth, so they naturally have The right to live.”
"Nonsense! What do you think of these evil heretics? Demons have been the enemies of mankind since ancient times. As long as they are demons, they deserve to be killed!" The old Taoist Wuji raised his sword and trembled with anger. "Is the prejudice in my heart a demon? Is the endless burning ignorant anger in Taoist heart a demon? Is it a demon to replace benevolence and righteousness with swords and use stubbornness to hurt others? Is this kind of behavior a demon? Forgive the little Taoist priest for being rude, but Only those who are timid will wield swords and show off their power. Only ignorant people will let their anger control their actions. There are so many Taoist seniors here, this Taoist nun who was crippled by you, and the two newborn babies. Where are they? There is room to resist your violence, so why rush to kill you? Why don't the two opposing parties talk quietly. If you think the other party is reasonable, you can gain something. If you think the other party is unreasonable, use virtue to convince them, which can also be considered a good education. In this way , wouldn’t it be better than fighting with swords and only increasing mutual resentment?”
"As expected of the sect's Holy Chosen One, that's well said. He completely damaged the old Taoist Eight Thunder Chong, which is very satisfying." All the Taoist priests secretly laughed. The five old Taoists also laughed angrily. They had long heard that Qingtian Taoist loved to be more serious, so he could explain the truth. It turned out to be true today.
Master Wuji was so angry that his lips trembled and his eyes were as wide as peeled eggs, but he could not refute. Although he has a violent temper, he is still the oldest member of the generation. If others want to reason with him, he really can't do anything. Besides, this kid is very powerful, so a real fight might not be a good thing. He was so angry that he stabbed his sword into the ground and shouted angrily: "Okay! I'll argue with you! I'll see what tricks you can come up with. If you don't make sense, not only will the devil die, but you will also be punished twice as much!"
Qingtian Taoist was silent and looked at the old Taoist Wu Shen, "Taoist Wu Shen, you are in charge of Tianlu Pavilion and you know the origin of the six realms best. May I ask, is the history of the demon clan more than one hundred thousand years old, and is it older than human history?"
"That's true. The Demon Clan are the descendants of the Celestial Clan, and the Human Clan are the descendants of the Spirit Clan and the Celestial Clan. It stands to reason that the Demon Clan was born in the Six Realms earlier than the Human Clan. Even if it is not earlier than the Human Clan, it is at least 70,000 years old. It's history." The golden-faced old Taoist with no body slightly nodded and said in an indifferent voice. "Who is qualified to say that a race that has existed for more than 70,000 years should not live in this world?" Taoist Qingtian. "Well, twelfth lunar month, you've got enough to eat. How can the demons have a longer history than humans! Even if they have existed for tens of thousands of years, the demons are murderous and greedy, and Taoist sects have made it their duty to eliminate demons from generation to generation. This has been since ancient times. The rules handed down by the Taoist ancestors can be fake." The old Taoist Wuji shouted in dissatisfaction.
Wu Shen Lao Dao: "That's true. Demons have been a symbol of cruelty and evil since the beginning of history. As long as they appear in the world, they will bring killing and invasion. Moreover, Long Hui is even more different. He is not just a demon. , he also swallowed the Heavenly Tribulation when he died, so his children must be demons that cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth. This is a sign of the birth of the great demon that brings disaster to the world. If these two demons grow up, they will be the biggest enemies of the Taoist sect and even the entire human race in the future. It must be killed as soon as possible to eliminate future troubles.”
"Things wax and wane for their own reasons. Trying to use brute force to change will only increase your karma. A tiger has fangs to eat meat, that is its nature; an elk eats grass, that is its nature; raging floods, It is the nature of floods to collapse dams and houses; it is the nature of nature for the tides to rise and fall, and for the sun and the moon to wax and wane. Can we kill all the tigers in the world just because they have fangs? Can we kill all the tigers in the world because the elk eat grass? Do you just admire its greatness? Floods are flooding, but who knows the reason why the water forms and coordinates the increase and decrease? Does the ebb and flow of the tide change due to human emotions? Does the waxing and waning of the sun and the moon require the human heart to praise and pity? Everything is the transformation of Tao and is the most natural state. There is no need for manpower to distinguish right from wrong. If there is really a disaster in the world and a great demon is about to be born, it means that the world has reached a time of great change. In this way, killing two babies can change it. Is that right? When we stick to old rules and use swords instead of benevolence to deal with demons, how can we ask them to repay kindness to us? Rules are created at a specific time and environment, and their application is naturally not eternal. Should we Adapt to the times and examine its rationality. Times are changing, things are changing, and it is a huge step back to do things according to the rules left by the predecessors. That demon man can come to the Taoist sect to save himself regardless of danger. His wife and children, he would rather die in battle than run away. When he feels love, he will repay his tenderness, and when he is hurt, he will fight back with anger. What is the difference between various sentiments and human beings? How can a person who practices morality and reason not feel it? How come the other party's emotions don't want to influence the other party's violence, but instead use force to force him to fight. If he is a demon, then you are even more cruel and stupid than a demon."
"Ah! That makes sense." The young Taoist priests nodded repeatedly. They only knew how terrifying the demons were, and they only knew the incompatible rules of the demons, but they had never thought that maybe the demons also had praiseworthy feelings. "Hey, I didn't say a word, but you poured out everything you said. With the thousands of years of Taoist rules and the experience passed down by countless predecessors and sages, aren't you as smart as a young boy like you? You haven't experienced the world, and you don't know the power of evil spirits. The creatures are terrifying. They look like humans, but their hearts are black, just like the scourge of wolves in the mountains. It is absolutely impossible to educate them. Killing them all is the best way." Old Taoist Wuji said angrily.
"Wolves are also a part of nature. If you kill them all, the herbivorous creatures in the mountains will no longer be a threat, and they will multiply uncontrollably, and diseases and famines will follow. This is the result of not following the Tao and false benevolence and righteousness. Bad consequences. 'When the great road is ruined, there is benevolence and righteousness; when wisdom comes out, there is great hypocrisy.' Human nature is dusty, so it is impossible to follow the laws of nature, and gives birth to many wisdoms and rules to bind oneself. But when rules appear, there will inevitably be an end. Ascetics You think the devil is scary, but when you look back, such a cruel and despicable act to hurt such a poor mother is no more noble than that of the devil. Human beings have inherent nature, and what guides us in doing things is not the rules, but the light of our nature. And kindness. Everyone here, do anyone really think that hurting weak mothers and orphans is the right behavior? Are you really willing to abandon your ability to distinguish between good and evil, abandon the call of your own natural wisdom, and do things with cold rules that do not know whether they are true or false. So , the rules that trap the world are the most terrifying demons in the world."
