The first year of Xuanzhang, the sixth day of June.
After the Southern Wilderness Tiger Clan captured the Peng Clan a month ago, they finally opened their fangs again. However, what is surprising is that their target turned out to be the Peacock Clan, the Colorful Fairyland located to the west of the Southern Wilderness.
It was still a beheading tactic, but this time, the Peacock Clan’s dormant Desolate Soul Realm ancestral demon was almost publicly executed by the Tiger Clan’s Desolate Soul Realm. The aftermath of the battle penetrated the void and even destroyed a quarter of the colorful fairyland. It was an abyss.
After half a month of ending the Peacock War, Feng Bugui finally issued a declaration to the entire Southern Wilderness - Surrender or perish!
But then, Yuyuan, Junji, Qingqiu, and Davari formed the "Fangcun Mountain Alliance" to deal with the power of the Tiger Clan.
The war has the potential to sweep through the Southern Wilderness.
Just as the Tiger Clan was confronting the Alliance, another minor incident occurred in the Southern Wilderness——
After the wolf was destroyed, a rebellion broke out in the Wolf Domain, which was jointly supervised by humans and monsters. A large number of wolf clans who had awakened their bloodline appeared out of nowhere, overthrowing the wolf clan forces fostered by humans and demon clans. Only those who awakened the Kuimulang bloodline The clan leader, Lang Mu, was wounded and escaped.
During this rebellion, the demons discovered that Wolf Prison, who had never been found and disappeared before, had actually become the ancestral demon.
Wolf Prison, who regained control of the wolf clan, immediately reached an agreement with Feng Bugui of the tiger clan, and was willing to serve Feng Bugui as the master.
The power of tiger and wolf is forming again!
…
"What is the court doing?" A middle-aged man complained as he took a sip of wine and looked at the panic-looking crowd outside the wine shop.
"What to do? Of course it's business." Chen Luo smiled bitterly and complained in his heart.
In total, it has been almost a month since Chen Luo entered the Southern Wasteland. The mission at Prince Jing's Mansion was completed smoothly, but there was still no news about Feng Nanzhi.
The clear information that can be obtained is that Feng Nanzhi entered the life and death barrier in order to advance to the Ancestral Demon and handed over the power of the Tiger Clan to Feng Bugui. More in-depth information is that the Great Sage who is close to Feng Nanzhi has either been assassinated. , or die in this tiger tribe’s conquest...
With the Tiger Clan taking action against the Colorful Fairyland and the Wolf Clan Incident, the entire Southern Wilderness has entered a new situation. Among them, the most dangerous ones are the humans who came to the Southern Wilderness before when the Southern Wilderness was peaceful.
Among them, there are those who come to Nanhuang to tell stories, and some who come to preach. Of course, the most common ones are those who come to Nanhuang to do business and make money.
But in this battle, everything was in chaos.
Safety seems to be the greatest luxury.
Although the imperial court dispatched special forces to evacuate and evacuate the human races in Southern Wilderness, Southern Wilderness is too big and there are always places that cannot be taken into consideration. Moreover, there are also many human races who have married and established families here and are unwilling to leave alone for the sake of their wives and children.
Therefore, people with lofty ideals who were still in the Southern Wilderness organized themselves to help these people escape from the Southern Wilderness.
Life is like this, it is obviously the most precious, but as long as the environment changes, it seems to be no different from the weeds on the roadside.
Chen Luo, after unsuccessfully trying to find out about Feng Nanzhi, joined one of the organizations to cover the evacuation of the human race. One is to continue to stay in the Southern Wilderness to look for opportunities, and the other is to contribute my meager strength.
The middle-aged man sitting in front of Chen Luo, drinking wine and complaining about the court, is named Zhang Lie, whose name is Xunlei, which means "thunder and wind must change" in "The Analects of Confucius".
Zhang Lie is also a third-grade scholar who has studied "Gongyang Studies". He has an upright personality and a hot temper. He is the only scholar in this guard team besides Chen Luo.
However, compared to the scholar, in Chen Luo's view, Zhang Lie was more like a martial artist.
I still don’t understand the evil heart of Confucianism.
What do you think the court is doing now?
After the "Fangcun Mountain Alliance" was formed, God knows how many benefits they gave up in their transactions and cooperation with Daxuan. You must know that although these tribes were close to the human race in the past, all they wanted was Chen Luo, and they had always insisted on the core interests of the race. This is why Chen Luo had almost no scenes with other clans in the later stages of Journey to the West, and they didn't react much.
This is called "tacit understanding of interests."
But now, under the pressure of the Tiger Clan, many key negotiations have finally been reopened.
This is just one of them. If it’s the second one...
To put it cruelly, there are too many races in the Southern Wilderness!
The Tiger Clan plowed the court to sweep the caves. Although they had only captured the Peng Clan and Peacock Clan so far, the small races they killed along the way also had many of the subordinates of these two tribes. This was more beneficial than harmful to the Human Clan.
It will not increase the strength of the Tiger Clan too much, but also make the power structure of the Southern Wilderness more refreshing.
It’s easy to take over in the future!
At least the human race will not be burdened with this crime.
According to Chen Luo's understanding, the people in the imperial court probably hope that the Tiger Clan and the Wolf Clan can give some help to weaken the "Fangcun Mountain Alliance", and then find an excuse to send troops to the Southern Wilderness.
There is no way, between races, interests are eternal.
Even if Chen Luokai goes online, he will still make this choice.
"If we escort them for another three hundred miles and enter Qingqiu territory, they will be safe." Chen Luo did not answer Zhang Lie's words, but changed the subject.
Zhang Lie nodded. Along the way, he admired the young scholar in front of him very much. In particular, the other party's Holy Path "Heart is Reason" is very popular with him.
Gongyang's theory that "the revenge of the ninth life can be repaid especially" is very consistent with the other party's "nothing outside the heart, no reason outside the heart".
In my heart, revenge is greater than heaven, so this is the law of heaven.
Nowadays, some people talk about "repaying evil with kindness" and advocate magnanimity, but the question is, is this what Confucius meant?
The complete statement of this sentence is——
Or say: "How about repaying evil with kindness?" Confucius said: "How to repay kindness? Repay evil with straightness, repay kindness with kindness."
What Confucius meant was: repay evil with kindness? You stupid x! If someone is bad to you, kill him! Only when he is good to you can you be good to him!
Just when Zhang Lie was about to tell Chen Luo to keep in touch after returning to Zhongjing, his expression suddenly changed. He glanced at Chen Luo, who also frowned. The two looked at each other and rushed out without any nonsense. Wine shop.
…
The void, toward the clouds and stars.
Feng Nanzhi held Xiao Aowu in his arms and kept teasing her with one hand. The smile on his face changed his usual indifference towards strangers.
Opposite her, Niu Dafa, who was shaken by a small moan, was talking about the recent changes in the southern wilderness.
"Wolf clan?" Feng Nanzhi heard the key point in this battle very keenly. She raised her head, thought for a moment, and sighed.
It is undeniable that Feng Bugui's strategic choice is almost perfect. With all the details revealed, the Tiger Clan does have the strength to fight against the Southern Wilderness as a clan.
However, the Tiger Clan's opponents have never been the so-called powerful tribes in the Southern Wilderness.
But the human race in the north that once drove the demon race out of China!
The human race is treating the wind as a sickle to cut the grass!
Of course, she believed that Feng Bugui also knew this.
But Feng Bugui took advantage of this and competed with the human race for development time.
It's not that the human race is blinded by interests and is willing to miss the opportunity.
After all, if the human race sends troops, even the demon clans such as Qingqiu and Yuyuan will also have concerns.
"Too urgent." Feng Nanzhi shook her head. In her opinion, the best time for Feng Bugui's tactics should be when the barbarians hold back the human race and let the human race deal with the northern and southern fronts at the same time. to maximum effect.
As for why you chose this time?
Feng Nanzhi lowered his head and glanced at Xiao Aowu.
"You are also heartless. Do you even want to help your father with the timing of his birth?"
Xiao Aowu didn't seem to understand Feng Nanzhi's words. He just blinked and giggled. The appearance of the lump of flesh made Feng Nanzhi helpless. He lowered his head and kissed her gently.
"Is there any news about your eldest brother?" Feng Nanzhi raised his head and asked Xiang Niu Dafa.
Niu Dafa shook his head: "Eldest brother is still in seclusion. Currently, Prince Jing's Mansion is in charge of Nanhuang."
"Sister-in-law asked me to tell Your Majesty to be patient for a few more days."
Feng Nanzhi smiled bitterly: "Patience?"
"I'm afraid that when I step out of this star, the Tiger Clan will be in ruins."
"I even played a part in this."
Niu Dafa looked at the somewhat dejected Feng Nanzhi, and felt a thump in his heart.
He immediately remembered Yun Siyao's instructions.
"A'zhi just gave birth to a baby. It's not okay to be too depressed. It will have an impact on the soul. If she says something hypocritical like the Tiger Clan is broken and she has contributed to it, you can tell her like this..."
So Niu Dafa spoke quickly and said according to what Yun Siyao taught him: "Your Majesty, there are too many thorns on a flower branch and it will hurt the little princess's hand."
"Pull out all those thorns now. Although it will cause some damage to the plants and trees, the most beautiful flowers will bloom on the little princess's hands in the future."
The wind stops in the south: (*ΦwΦ*)
Okay, that makes sense.
If the wind does not return, it is indeed a thorn in the root.
Feng Nanzhi lowered his head and glanced at the little meat dumpling in his arms, suddenly frowned, and then looked at Niu Dafa: "Who taught you what you just said?"
Niu Dafa: Ah!
Xiao Aowu glanced at Niu Dafa at this moment, waved his little hand, and in an instant, the bracelet gave off a ray of light, and Niu Dafa's figure disappeared from the place!
…
Southern wilderness.
Chen Luo stepped on a blue cloud and stood in the air, tightly holding the Wenbao pen given to him by Leng Hanbing in his hand. However, his arms were shaking uncontrollably at this time. He looked at the person in front of him who was beaten with blood all over his body. The Great Sage Wolf Demon felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Just now, two wolf demon great saints suddenly appeared in the sky above the evacuating crowd, and he and Zhang Lie naturally greeted them.
In the distance, the collision of Haoran's righteous energy and the blood demon's energy made a roar. This was Zhang Lie fighting another wolf demon.
"A new great scholar from the human race?" The wolf demon great sage standing opposite Chen Luo spat out a mouthful of blood, "It seems that you are not very accustomed to your power!"
Chen Luo frowned slightly.
This wolf demon is right. From this physical point of view, he has the fighting power of a new great scholar, and in combat, he is still more accustomed to martial arts methods.
If it weren't for Wen Bao Pen, he might not be a match for the great wolf demon opposite.
The Great Sage Wolf Demon sneered when he saw that Chen Luo was in a daze.
When Lang Mie was still alive, he was a second-grade great saint. However, as the source of his bloodline was destroyed, his cultivation level dropped to the seventh level.
But that boy from Wolf Prison was so good that he actually revived the source of his bloodline. Although his cultivation level has only returned to the third level, it is much stronger than the average third level.
As long as he devours the great human scholar in front of him and refines the power of the Great Dao in his body, he might be able to directly return to his previous second-level realm.
Thinking of this, the great wolf demon stuck out his tongue again and licked his lips.
A mere newly-minted scholar, although it was a bit difficult to rely on his literary pen, he could not escape the fate of becoming his prey in the end!
"Swift!"
The figure of the wolf demon great sage suddenly disappeared. The next moment, Chen Luo felt a fishy wind and stench coming. She quickly stepped back a few feet to avoid the wolf demon great sage's sneak attack. She tried hard to stabilize her arms and lifted her arms again. Wenbao pen.
Just be a Confucian sect. The Confucian sect is also good at fighting methods.
The next moment, Chen Luo's heart moved, and the "heart is the reason" family, country, and world fell. This characteristic of the family, country, and world can increase Chen Luo's inner meaning.
The increase of the intention in the heart is coupled with the increase of Wenbao's pen!
Chen Luo's awe-inspiring righteousness was poured into the Wenbao pen, and he quickly wrote in the void——
"The murderous spirit is especially strong when spring comes, but now the demonic atmosphere is gone and my bones are already cold!"
"Taking a laugh and speaking out has no chance of winning. I often recall riding on the saddle in my dreams!"
After writing, the righteousness left traces in the air. In the blink of an eye, the green light above the poems glowed brightly, and a shadow of a mighty general condensed out, riding towards the Wolf Demon Great Sage.
"Huh?" The wolf demon great sage looked solemnly. Chen Luo had also written a lot of war poems before, but this time, it seemed to be original!
The original first work has a stronger power of the avenue, and its combat power will be several percent higher!
Suddenly, the wolf demon's eyes turned blood red, and its body expanded, turning into a huge wave about ten feet long, and rushed towards the general's shadow!
At this time, Chen Luo, who had gotten some breathing space, did not stop the movement in his hand. He picked up the Wenbao pen again, and Haoran's righteousness continued to pour into it.
He closed his eyes, and a figure of a general fighting on the battlefield seemed to appear in his mind. He is always galloping, always fighting for life and death!
From the southeast to the northern region, his footprints are all over the place. He has never taken off his armor, just for peace in the world.
It was exactly what he said: The title of Marquis is not my intention, I hope the sea will be peaceful!
Chen Luo took a deep breath and started writing again!
"Running across the wrong road to repay the Lord's love, the river is full of flowers and the moon is smiling all my life."
"Three hundred and sixty days a year, most of them are marching."
After writing, the poem was brilliant, and then there was a sound of horse hoofbeats. The next moment, instead of condensation, the space vibrated, and a general's shadow rushed out of the void holding a long sword!
"Impossible!" The Wolf Demon Great Sage's Kong shrank. A newly promoted third-grade Confucian, it was considered good to be able to condense one Confucian warrior general. How could he condense two!
"Two original Confucian war poems?" The Great Sage Wolf Demon began to panic!
As this great Confucian warrior general joined the battle group, the great sage of the wolf clan gradually became unable to hold on any longer!
But before he could collapse, a thunderous explosion suddenly sounded on Zhang Lie's battlefield on the other side.
Chen Luo looked sideways and saw that Zhang Lie's arm had been blown off, and his opponent, the great wolf demon, had his head blown off!
"Brother Wang, the rest is up to you!" Zhang Lie smiled slightly in the direction of Chen Luo, then closed his eyes, and fell from the sky as if he had lost all strength!
"Blue-blooded elixir heart!" Chen Luo was startled. Zhang Lie used the green-blooded elixir heart to burn his lifespan and kill the great sage.
Because of the panic-stricken and unfamiliar human race below!
Gongyang learns to be ruthless, but Gongyang learns to be more polite.
Seeing Zhang Lie fall to the ground, someone immediately stepped forward to lift him up and take care of him. Chen Luo felt a little relieved.
He once again looked at the Wolf Demon Great Sage who was fighting with the two Confucian warrior generals, and a rage arose in his heart.
"Your companion is dead, it's time for you to accompany him!"
…
"Do great scholars from the human race have to fight each other hard?"
After fighting for half a stick of incense, the wolf demon great sage's heart became colder and colder. His whole body was covered with scars. The key was that he was surrounded and killed by the two great Confucian warrior generals and the human race great Confucian, and he could not even escape.
Regret it!
Shouldn't have come!
At this time, while resisting the attack of the great Confucian general, he shouted: "Great Confucian of the human race, I am a second-grade great saint, but I have fallen down in rank due to my bloodline!"
"I'm not the same as the loser who just died!"
"You let me go, and everyone will just pretend that nothing happened today!"
"If you keep pushing me like this, you will regret it!"
Chen Luo sneered and did not answer, but with a thought in his mind, he made the two great Confucian generals attack harder, while he continued to inject great righteousness into them.
Seeing that Chen Luo didn't respond at all, the wolf clan's great sage's heart finally hit rock bottom.
This time, I kicked the steel plate!
Feeling the increasingly fierce attack of the great Confucian warrior, the great sage of the wolf tribe finally gave up the illusion of escape.
You can say that the wolves are insidious and cunning, but it is undeniable that among the demon clan, the wolves are indeed ruthless characters.
The great sage of the wolf clan blocked the attack of the war general Daru, and then suddenly inserted his claws into his chest.
The next moment, he took out a beating wolf heart from his chest!
"Since you are going to die, you should be buried with me!" The great sage of the wolf clan raised his heart high, and at the same time, the weapons of the two great Confucian generals also pierced his body.
The great sage of the wolf clan looked at Chen Luo, showed a cruel smile, and pointed towards the heart in the air.
In an instant, the heart exploded and turned into bloody raindrops, hitting the human race below.
At this time, all the human beings who were touched by the blood-colored raindrops had their pores turn red, and the violent heartbeat of "Dongdongdong" could be heard from their chests.
…
"There is a bloodline in the wolf clan called the Heart-Eating Mountain Wolf. Because it lives on the mountainside, it is also called the Zhongshan Wolf."
A long time ago, when Chen Luo was going to take refuge in the Southern Wilderness, Yun Siyao explained to him the situation of each demon clan in detail, the focus of which was the wolf clan.
"When this Heart-Eating Mountain Wolf's cultivation exceeds the second level, he will naturally realize a life-threatening magical power!"
"Use your heart to turn into rain, use rain to harm your heart!"
"This magical power is called: Wolf Ambition!"
Chen Luo still remembers the expression on Yun Siyao's face when he talked about this magical power.
"This magical power is similar to the inner demon outside the world, but different."
"The inner demon outside the world will stir up the desires in the heart, and eventually fall into the devil's path!"
"And this wolfish ambition will make people lose their moral restraints and lose themselves step by step."
"But this change is slow and takes a lifetime."
"If someone is obsessed, it would be clean to kill him. But if he is bewitched by wolfish ambition, you can't tell whether he is out of control or not!"
"He may still look like a human, but he has actually turned into a wolf in human skin!"
"You can't kill them, you can't use them! It's cruel to the people who get hit; but if you ignore them, it's also cruel to others!"
"The most important thing is that this kind of wolfish ambition will also affect other people."
"This is the tricky part about this magical power!"
…
"Wolf ambition!" Chen Luo looked at the humans on the ground and frowned slightly.
I had never encountered it when I defrauded Nanhuang, but this time I encountered it.
Watching those human races gradually return to their normal appearance, Chen Luo was also troubled.
Damn it, that wolf demon great sage actually gave himself such a problem!
These people are like time bombs now. But as long as they don't explode, you can't do anything to them!
The demon clan's method of dealing with those of the same clan who have fallen prey to wolf ambitions is very simple: kill!
I would rather kill three thousand by mistake than miss one!
But can humans do it?
Obviously not!
Can wolfish ambition be saved?
Yes, but you need someone with a right mind to take action! Treat them one by one!
While Chen Luo was hesitating, he suddenly saw someone walking towards the unconscious Zhang Lie.
Chen Luo had seen that person. He was a fifth-grade master who took the initiative to join the guard.
But the next moment, Chen Luo saw the other party reaching out to untie the jade pendant around Zhang Lie's neck.
Being carried by a great scholar, it is certainly not an ordinary treasure!
When Chen Luo and Zhang Lie were drinking, they heard him say that this was a jade pendant he had raised during pregnancy. When he had a child in the future, he would give it to the child as a birth gift.
"F*ck!" Chen Luo suddenly waved his sleeves and shot out a burst of righteousness, knocking the fifth-grade master to the ground.
The master got up from the ground and glanced at Chen Luo bitterly.
Chen Luo felt a chill in his heart. The next moment, he opened his mouth, his tongue burst into spring thunder, and recited the classic.
"Mencius said: To think of others as good is to do good to others. Therefore, a gentleman never does more than do good to others."
"Mencius said: Be kind to others and be kind to others. Forgiveness to all is also benevolence. If you know this, you will recognize the large and the large. If you don't know this, you will recognize the small and the small."
"Thinking of the way of the ancient saints, the most important thing is to be kind to others. To teach others with words... never tire of it is to do good to others; to never tire of teaching others is to be kind to others..."
Chen Luo read out many saints' classics in one breath, focusing on the "good" meaning, trying to suppress the "wolf heart" of these people, but with little success!
That’s right, this should be something that can only be solved with a positive state of mind!
Right heart...
Chen Luo's eyes suddenly lit up!
perhaps……
Chen Luo once again released his family, country, and world, trapping all those who were soaked by the bloody rain. These people simultaneously looked at Chen Luo in the sky.
"Da Ru, what are you going to do?"
"Wang Daru, I'm fine, why don't you let me go?"
"Wang Daru, do you want to kill people and silence them?"
Questions came out of their mouths one after another. You would never imagine that not long ago, they respected Chen Luo and were grateful.
Chen Luo sat cross-legged in the air, ignoring the insults in his ears, and took a deep breath.
"At the beginning of human life, nature is good!"
"Mencius said: Knowing without worrying is a conscience!"
"Everyone has an innate kindness in their heart."
"This kind thought is like mother's love, like father's love, like the empathy and love between the same kind of people..."
"This is conscience, and it is also the most basic principle that heaven bestows on living beings!"
"But when we come into this world, we are dyed in various colors by the dye vat. This color covers up the innate conscience!"
Chen Luo took a deep breath.
The mind is the reason, any questions?
have!
There's a big problem!
If you only regard the principles in your heart as the only existing principles, what should you do if it is a wrong or evil principle?
Are you stubborn and unrepentant?
Do you think destroying the world is right, so you don’t care about anyone and do this destructive thing?
Therefore, while the mind is the reason, it also needs to “give conscience”!
We need to light up the original good thoughts and the original knowledge in our hearts.
From this perspective, we must "preserve heaven's principles and eliminate human desires"!
so……
The second grade of Confucianism, he knows a little bit.
We must see that our inner conscience must find our earliest original intention!
Chen Luo's body gradually became filled with the power of the Great Dao. After a long time, a blue aura of awe-inspiring righteousness condensed on his body. When the aura of awe-inspiring righteousness was condensed to a certain extent, it suddenly dispersed and turned into a stream of righteousness and clear brilliance, which fell on those People who were showered with blood.
The next moment, being washed away by the righteousness and light, those people felt their hearts heat up. When they looked down, they saw a drop of fishy blood seeping out of their skin, and then it turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated.
At this moment, Chen Luo also opened his eyes.
Everyone bowed respectfully to Chen Luo, and Chen Luo looked up at the sky.
Mind Science: To Conscience!
He is in the second grade!
Chen Luo took a deep breath. There was only one last step left before he could completely open up the path of mind learning!
Unity of knowledge and action!
But then, Chen Luo seemed to think of something.
Why would the Great Sage of the Wolf Clan appear in this place?
A guess formed in his mind. At this time, he did not care to experience the second-grade Confucian realm, but spoke to the crowd below with spring thunder in his tongue: "Quick! Let's go!"
"Throw away all the baggage and baggage!"
"Get out of here quickly!"
