Chapter 466 Confucian and Taoist Monks
As he spoke, he poured a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp: "Lies do have power, and are more powerful than any other words, but the price is too high."
He looked at Lu Yunchang and said with a bitter smile: "Brother Lu, do you believe it? A Confucian and Taoist monk at the peak of the spirit transformation realm died just because of a lie that did not cause any real harm."
Lu Yunchang's hands couldn't help but tremble slightly after hearing this, and then he also picked up a glass of wine and drank it quickly to suppress the shock in his heart.
"Because Confucian and Taoist monks use their own principles to confirm the way of heaven and earth, we can only be right and not wrong. Once we are wrong, the principle is wrong. If the principle is wrong, then there will be no truth in the world. This is simply not true. It’s not a question of right or wrong, it’s cause and effect.”
"So the cause and effect that other monks avoid is the most critical factor in the advancement of our Confucian and Taoist monks."
Lu Yunchang was horrified when he heard this.
Only then did he understand what a Confucian and Taoist monk was like, and the power he wielded was truly unparalleled.
Especially in the realm of Confucian saints, every word and deed can affect the entire world for thousands of years. What kind of terrifying power is this?
Only then did he realize that his previous misunderstanding of Confucianism and Taoism was simply too deep. All the principles in this world were clearly understood by countless Confucian and Taoist sages in the endless avenues. Finally, based on their own understanding, they summarized them in the most concise words and then taught them to the world.
That's why Zhang Chenyi asked him if he believed words and words were powerful. This is not just power at all, it is also a great way.
Lu Yunchang suddenly remembered what Ying Fei said to him. He said that Tiandao cares about the world more than anyone else and hopes that the world can be stronger than anyone else.
If Shintoism was born to deal with the invasion of other worlds, then wouldn’t it be said that Confucianism and Taoism were born to strengthen the world?
Thinking of this, Lu Yunchang actually developed an extremely strong admiration for the way of heaven. As expected, the existence of each lineage has its own unique mission.
Similarly, Lu Yunchang also had more respect for Confucianism and Taoism.
He raised his wine glass and said to Zhang Chenyi: "Zhang Daoyou, I'd like to toast you."
Zhang Chenyi didn't expect that his words would have such a big impact on Lu Yunchang. When he saw him raising his glass, he also picked up his glass: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lu."
Two people who were strangers toasted and drank together as if they were old friends for many years.
After drinking for three rounds, Lu Yunchang asked out of curiosity: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, why are you bringing a child with you when you are away from home?"
When Zhang Chenyi heard this, he turned his head and looked at the pink girl. She was about five or six years old, but her situation was embarrassing.
"It's a long story..."
Zhang Chenyi is eighteen years old this year and has been in Taoism for two years, but now he is stuck in the early stages of Taoism and cannot make any progress. Therefore, he followed his husband's advice and left the academy, planning to travel around the world, hone himself in the world of mortals, and seek opportunities for breakthrough.
In a place called Xiaogou Mountain, he encountered a group of bandits who were robbing homes. These guys were very vicious and wanted him to hand over all his belongings, otherwise they would kill him.
Zhang Chenyi was thinking, Confucianism and Taoism educate the common people, but why are there still these people who are born evil?
He was taken to the village by bandits, where he saw a dirty little girl. According to what the bandits said, they had robbed the girl's house and robbed her house. The girl's father was hacked to death by them, and her mother was also humiliated to death.
What Zhang Chenyi didn't expect was that these bandits actually planned to raise the little girl so that she could become their plaything.
At this moment, he finally couldn't bear it anymore. He took action, destroyed all these bandits and left them to fend for themselves, and then left there with the little girl.
The child was too young to remember where his home was, so he had no choice but to take it with him. There is nothing to settle for the moment, so we can only wait until he is brought back to the academy.
After Lu Yunchang listened to the whole story quietly, he looked at Qianqian. This little girl who only remembered her nickname was a little timid when he saw her. His little hands naturally and quietly pulled Zhang Chenyi's sleeves, as if this was the only way to give her enough. sense of security.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, Lu admires you."
But Zhang Chenyi's eyes were clear: "I just follow my own path."
Finally, Zhang Chenyi took the little girl away.
Lu Yunchang sat for a while before getting up and leaving. He walked around the bustling streets and found that there were indeed many more monks along the way than other places. In the end, he felt that it was not interesting, so he went back home and returned to the sword making shop.
Qi Yushan was not in the shop, and he didn't know where he went. Lu Yunchang went back to his room and closed his eyes to rest.
It wasn't until late afternoon that there was a sudden knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw the young apprentice. Lu Yunchang remembered that his name was Sanjin. According to Qi Yushan, it was because he weighed three kilograms when he was born, so his parents simply named him Sanjin.
Seeing the door open, Sanjin said: "Brother Lu, there is a scholar in the shop looking for you."
Scholar? When did you meet a scholar?
Confused, he followed Sanjin to the shop and saw the familiar figure at first sight, but he looked very embarrassed at this time, his clothes were in tatters and his body was covered in scars.
Seeing Lu Yunchang, he said urgently: "Fellow Daoist Lu, please save Qianqian."
Lu Yunchang was taken aback and hurriedly said: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, what happened?"
"It's too late to explain. Let me tell you while we're walking."
Lu Yunchang turned around and explained to Sanjin, then followed Zhang Chenyi and left the sword making shop.
It turned out that Zhang Chenyi was targeted by Chi Feng and his men when he left Banished Immortal Residence. He originally planned to find a remote and quiet place to arrange accommodation for tonight, but he didn't want to give these people an opportunity instead.
Chi Feng suddenly appeared and not only injured Zhang Chenyi, but also kidnapped Qianqian. He told Zhang Chenyi that if he wanted to save Qianqian, he should go to the blacksmith shop to find Lu Yunchang and ask him to find him at Qingfeng Mountain, thirty miles west of the city.
Lu Yunchang became a little angry after hearing the whole story. This group of people was simply a little lawless. Do you really think you have a good temper? So he directly drove Feijian and headed towards Qingfeng Mountain with Zhang Chenyi.
Qingfeng Mountain is a mountain with cliffs on all sides. From the mountainside, there are steep or gentle slopes. There is also a large flat area at the top of the mountain, like a natural battlefield.
When Lu Yunchang and Zhang Chenyi landed on the top of Qingfeng Mountain with their sword lights, they immediately saw the man in the bamboo hat and the rugged man standing far away. They were Chi Feng and Xing San. Xing San held the unconscious Qianqian in his hand.
Seeing Lu Yunchang, Chi Feng said, "We meet again."
Lu Yunchang said: "If you want to find me, there are many ways."
Chi Feng shrugged: "I only like the simplest and most effective way."
Zhang Chenyi said a little anxiously: "Can Qianqian be released now?"
