Lu Er didn't seem surprised when he heard Lin Xixue's answer. He just nodded calmly and said, "I want to hear the reason for my refusal."
"No special reason, just because I don't like Confucianism." Lin Xixue said with a smile.
"What's the explanation?" Lu Er became curious.
"It's nothing, I just don't like the Confucian concept of ministers as father and son, and the husband as the wife's guide, and I don't even like the so-called etiquette of women's three obediences and four virtues constructed by Confucianism."
"Is it because of this?" Lu Er finally showed a slightly surprised look, "My little friend, have you ever thought that if you were in charge of the Confucian sect, you could change everything at any time, and you could educate all people according to your own ideas."
"I have no interest in educating the people." Lin Xixue shook her head and rejected Lu Er's proposal again, "Moreover, sir, have you ever thought about a question?"
"what is the problem?"
"My husband said that people in this world still need to comfort themselves with stories about ghosts and gods, but I don't think so."
"Even if you follow the example of the ancient Zhuanxu clan and use the ultimate power of heaven to gather all the incense in the world into the lineage of Shenxiao, what if the lineage of Shenxiao dies in the future?"
"For as long as the people worship ghosts and gods, monsters like Lei Zu will be in power."
"I just told my little friend that using the Shenxiao lineage to collect incense is currently the best way to prevent monsters like Lei Zu from growing stronger." Lu Er's eyes became sharp.
"I don't think that's the case." Lin Xixue denied.
She used her fingers to pick out a chess piece from the chess box, held it in front of her chest, and said, "The people in this world are not the chess pieces on this chess board. They don't need my education."
"The world is not a chessboard. We need people like you and me to play chess on it."
"This world belongs to the people of the world. I will make the people of the world understand that instead of believing in ghosts and gods, it is better to believe in yourself. I will make the people of this world gain their own hearts!"
"I will let the people of the world become their own gods!"
After saying that, she randomly placed the chess piece in a position that looked pleasing to her eyes.
In fact, she did not know how to play chess, and the move was indeed made at random. But when Lu Er saw the position of her move, he was so surprised that he took a breath of cold air.
He stared at the chessboard for a long time, his expression became more and more excited, and then he laughed loudly.
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! It's so wonderful that the world belongs to everyone in the world. Someone can finally solve this chess game!"
"But aren't you afraid that the road ahead will be a long night with no one traveling with you?" Lu Er gradually stopped smiling and asked seriously.
Lin Xixue took out the Splitting Light from the void, held it in front of her, and gently brushed the blade, her expression becoming more determined.
"If this is really the case, then I will hold this knife and cut through this eternal night!"
"Cai!" After hearing this, Lu Er bowed his head and applauded her, "I learned a lesson today."
"However," he changed the subject, "Since I have no intention of taking charge of the Confucian sect, I'm afraid I can't hand over this exquisite heart to you."
"As it should be."
Lin Xixue was not surprised at all, and even her speech was almost hostile to the Confucian sect.
After all, to make the people believe in themselves is to eliminate all ghosts and monsters, even those of the Shenxiao lineage.
It was naturally impossible for Lu Er to hand over the Linglong Heart to a potential enemy like himself.
She even felt that it was not impossible for Lu Er to take strong action now and directly suppress her. Even though she knew the consequences, she spoke them out anyway.
Because she is no longer confused, she wants to fulfill her previous promise and build such a place.
"Twenty years." Lu Er pondered for a moment, then suddenly mentioned such a number of years in a non-stop manner.
"What?" Lin Xixue was confused.
"With the severity of the current erosion, I will completely turn into a monster in twenty years. Therefore, no matter what, I will pass on my exquisite heart to the next person to succeed the Confucian sect in twenty years."
"But if within twenty years, little friend, I can see that what you said is not empty talk, what's the harm in leaving this exquisite heart to my little friend?"
"Sir, are you not afraid? If I really do what I say, will the Confucian sect and the Shenxiao lineage cease to exist?"
"Whether it is a Confucian sect or a member of the Shenxiao lineage, it is just to seek some stability for the people. If I can really do what you say, I will bring peace to the Southern Cang Realm for eternity."
He sighed, not sure if it was regret or reluctance.
"Then what if my Confucian sect and Shenxiao lineage no longer exist?"
"Sir, you are so righteous!" Lin Xixue praised.
She wasn't shooting a rainbow fart, she was really feeling it.
Although Lu Er was limited by generations and had many differences from her ideas, what she did was still worthy of her admiration.
"I haven't been so happy for a long time. I gained a lot from having a long chat with my little friend. How about I sing a song for you?"
"Thank you, sir." Lin Xixue held her hand.
Lu Er took the guqin from the side, played the strings and sang: "The phoenixes are like phoenixes, how can virtue decline?"
"You can't wait for the afterlife, and you can't pursue the past life. If there is a way in the world, how can a saint be born? If there is no way in the world, how can a saint be born."
"At this time, only punishment is exempted. Blessings are as light as a feather, and no one knows how to carry them; misfortunes are as heavy as the earth, and no one knows how to avoid them."
"It's almost done. I approach people with virtue. I'm almost done. I draw the ground and follow it. I'm confused by the sun, but it doesn't hurt my walk. It's a song but it's a song, it doesn't hurt my feet."
After listening to what Lu Er sang, Lin Xixue couldn't help but frown. She always felt that the lyrics were very yin and yang.
Seeing Lin Xixue's strange expression, Lu Er knew that she had misunderstood and explained, "Don't be surprised, little friend. This is the tune that an expert stopped me and sang to me when I was traveling around the world."
"I didn't fully understand its meaning back then, but I finally understood it after listening to my friend's words today."
Lin Xixue nodded. She thought that Lu Er was yin-yanging her, but she didn't expect that someone was yin-yanging Lu Er before.
However, it is really rare for Lu Er to remember Yin Yang's ditty so clearly.
"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I want to ask you, sir." Lin Xixue thought of another very important question.
"Previously on the mountain behind Sanyuan Temple, I accidentally disturbed the larvae of the Great Society. After a fight, I cut off one of its roots."
"You don't need to worry about this. With the subsequent support of the incense, this root will be reborn soon."
"Ahem." Lin Xixue cleared her throat, feeling slightly embarrassed.
She really didn't mind because of this, "Sir, I misunderstood. I just wanted to ask. I accidentally ate the roots of this big society."
"There should be no problem."
Lu Er was shocked by her again, stretching his neck forward, "Accidentally eaten the roots of the big society?"
"I was just too hungry at the time. I thought the hair was very fragrant and delicious, so I couldn't hold it back. Is there any problem with this?"
