Chapter 522 Dark Road

Chapter 522 Dark Road

After bidding farewell to Jing's family, Li Qi continued on his way.

On the way, he chatted with Shen Shuibi.

"Tell me, after meeting you twice, what will be her future path?" Li Qi asked.

"Difficult." Shen Shuibi shook his head.

It's really difficult.

Respect Yan to be sincere in heart and diligent in action. This is the same as success and failure. If you are too sincere and too diligent, you are a wooden head. If you grasp the technique, you will practice the technique vigorously. If you grasp the Qi, you will practice the Qi vigorously. .

In the future, if she grasps the divine will of martial arts, she will surely excel.

This also made Li Qi couldn't help but reflect.

Can someone like Jing Yan really accuse her of anything?

Even in the Tang Kingdom and Wushen Mountain, Li Qi had never seen anyone who was more diligent than her. When she was at the ninth level, she could detect Li Qi's Qi. To a certain extent, she could be considered a genius.

but……

Shen Shuibi has already said personally that her future path will not be too long, and Li Qi's judgment is not much different.

"You can't do it if you're diligent, you can't do it if you're lazy, you can't do it if you're stupid, and you can't do it if you're an adulterer." Li Qi looked up at the sky.

It's so difficult.

He is very smart. Zhu Fengdan's evaluation of him is: "too smart."

Jing Yan is very diligent and upright, but she was evaluated as: "too diligent."

It's so difficult.

There are countless dangers on the road, and if you take a wrong step, you may never have another chance. But if you don't move forward, what's the difference between having no chance?

You must have the courage to move forward, the wisdom to judge whether you are stepping on a trap, the confidence to firmly believe that you are on the right path, and the persistence to go on for a long time without achieving any results.

Take Jing Yan for example, she actually doesn't know that she is on the wrong path at all, so how can she distinguish between "I am on the wrong path" and "I haven't worked hard enough"?

The answer is, you can't tell the difference at all.

No one knows whether it is right or not, no one knows whether their efforts are in the wrong direction or whether it is the darkness before dawn.

As the saying goes: He who travels a hundred miles only makes it half ninety, so who knows whether he has already traveled ninety, or whether he has simply gone the wrong way?

And Li Qi, how can he know whether his current caution is good or bad?

brave? Or reckless?

cautious? Or cowardice?

confidence? Or arrogant?

persist in? Or stupid?

Is what Zhu Fengdan said right? Is his own judgment correct?

Li Qi suddenly felt that after seeing Jing Yan's experience, he seemed to have a new understanding.

At this time, he recalled in a trance that when he first entered the spiritual practice in the past, when he got the "Blessing" book, he felt that a smooth road to the sky appeared in front of him, and he just walked up it.

At that time, he felt that there were no bottlenecks in his practice, and that everything seemed to be very relaxed. After all, he had already read through the details of how to get promoted and the signs of levels.

But now when I get down, I just feel that this road has countless forks and thorns, and there is only darkness in front of me.

The entire road is a land of endless darkness. Although there is no thrilling fighting and killing, it is much more terrifying than fighting along the way.

Your knowledge, your heritage, your diligence, your talent, and your teacher are like a lamp in the darkness, illuminating a limited area and allowing people to predict the path in the darkness.

The more knowledge and diligence you have, the brighter the light will be and you will see a little more of the future.

But these lights can never illuminate the entire dark earth.

I am afraid that no existence can understand what the road is like. All existences are sad and blind worms in the darkness called "the road".

So small, so insignificant, there are countless dangers lurking in the dark unknown of the world. Every time you explore the outside world, you are walking between life and death.

The worm himself has no idea whether the next step he steps into the darkness will be food or a predator? What about even more indescribable and indescribable horrors?

Zhenzhiyun, Li Qi named it Zhenzhi, but found that in the face of the real deep darkness, even Zhenzhi could not see anything.

Is this the truth about exploring the path? Desperate and deep.

And today's path is all clear, which has been explored by countless predecessors in the dark continent. A relatively safe path is already much better than starting from scratch.

However, for individuals, it is still full of crises.

Li Qi suddenly felt that even if it was as strong as the first grade, it should be no different from him, right?

The essence of what Wu Dao pursues is to coexist with the entire world, to see it completely clearly, and even to illuminate the dark continent of ‘Tao’, right?

The future that humanity pursues in which man replaces heaven should be to completely master this dark continent, and man becomes the master of this thing.

The freedom that Taoism pursues is absolute safety in this dark continent, no longer in danger due to anything.

What about Buddhism? Judging from their ideas and propaganda, it is "all living beings are awakened". This is the so-called Tathagata's great cause, "Tathagata awakens the world." Do they want everyone to be awakened and realize the nature of the Dark Continent?

Or do they want all sentient beings to understand more? After all, Li Qi knew that he still didn't know many truths. What he knew now was obtained through existing clues and knowledge.

So, now that you know this, what should you do next?

Just understanding but not doing it means not understanding.

What's next?

Li Qi rode an old horse and thought about it on the way to visit the Flower Goddess of Lingxiao, and finally got a result.

He felt that since in this dark continent, no one knew what was ahead, or whether they were going in the right direction, or even whether they were going in circles or going in the wrong direction.

Then, the role of the teacher is obvious. For example, Li Qi was able to use his knowledge to see Jing Yan's flaws, and Zhu Fengdan also pointed out Li Qi's self-centered cowardice and tried to stimulate him.

How do teachers and seniors see your path clearly?

It's simple. Their 'lights' are brighter, so they can definitely see further.

Li Qi decided.

In the next four to five hundred years, his energy will be focused here. He must see his future path clearly. If he finds his future path and knows how to act, then Zhu Fengdan will not force him .

If Zhu Fengdan didn't force him, Shen Shuibi would naturally not need to go to the most dangerous front line.

Then, the next step is to go back and take a dip in the library in Wushen Mountain, let the knowledge infiltrate yourself, and find possible paths.

If you can't find it, you should try your best to improve your strength and other influence to help Shen Shuibi get the best possible support on the front line.

Having made up his mind, he flew another hundred thousand miles and arrived at Lingxiao Kingdom.

When they arrived at Lingxiao Kingdom, there was no need to be so troublesome. Li Qi just cast a spell into the sky.

The technique unfolds, turning into vitality, slowly expanding, like clouds, continuously releasing vitality.

These vitalities will be slowly released, improving the weather in this state of Lingxiao a little or two, making the weather smooth, which will probably last for about a year.

This level of magic was not too expensive for Li Qi, but he still did it.

There are two main points. First, Lingxiao Flower God will definitely notice such a big movement. This is a friendly way to knock on the door of the other party, and it is also a gift of a sudden visit.

The second thing is that Li Qi saw the situation below, so he took action to alleviate the suffering of the people with a little effort.

The Lingxiao Kingdom was actually replaced once by the Lingxiao Flower God. In Chang'an, the Lingxiao Flower God used the Lingxiao Kingdom's national destiny to block a murder for himself.

At that time, Li Qi knew that the Lingxiao Kingdom would inevitably face many disasters in the future, with no rain, constant earthquakes, rampant plagues, and frequent disasters. After all, there must be a price to pay for the declining national destiny.

For a person of a country to fend off calamity for the leader of the country, this can be regarded as one of the classic evil ways of humanity. In true humanity, this method is absolutely not allowed to appear.

Absorbing the destiny of the country, devouring the power of the masses, and even forming a 'company' that purely uses the flesh and blood lives and lives of the people below as material for practice. From the perspective of orthodox humanism, it is all an operation like digging the roots, and it must be completely eradicated. Evil law.

Because doing so deviates from the essence of humanity.

For those with high positions in humanity, they themselves are also part of ‘human beings’.

This is the essence of human nature. Whether they are high-ranking people or ordinary people, they are a whole and cannot be separated from each other. When those in high-ranking positions help the low-ranking people, they are also helping themselves. When the low-ranking people contribute to the high-ranking people, they can also provide benefits for themselves.

Everyone is for me, and I am for everyone. This 'for' is not just 'for', but also includes the meaning of 'becoming'. There is no essential difference between 'everyone' and 'I'. We are all one body. , so the humane official position can borrow the power of everyone, so that all humane officials have dual personalities.

If you absorb the destiny of the country like the Flower Goddess of Lingxiao, you will completely separate the two. The king is the king, and the people are the people. I am not a citizen, the people must be for me. The meaning of the existence of the people is to be nourishment for the country.

In this case, how can we talk about humanity? That is more similar to the many sects of Shinto.

The difference is probably just that the extraction efficiency of humanity is higher and the root digging speed is faster.

Besides, even within Shinto, the Taoist lineage that completely relies on believers to provide power is also the lowest among the lowest. The real innate gods are self-existing. It is the believers who need them, not them who need the believers. Blood-sucking believers like this This kind of thing is also the behavior of insects in the eyes of high-ranking gods.

Humanity does not approve of this approach. Thinking about it, when Lingxiao Flower God used this trick, he had already decided to completely break away from humanity.

Li Qi doesn't really agree with this method. He won't use it himself, but everyone has their own method, and he doesn't think there will be any problem if others use it.

Wu Jin, that’s it. It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s acceptable. Anyway, your existence itself is a part of this world.

As the technique in his hand evolved, Li Qi's expression was slightly serious. After all, this matter was not that simple, and it was not done casually.

The vitality is becoming more and more intense, but the true knot of vitality lies in the general trend, just like the shape of the earth, which is both hidden and clumsy.

These living things will enter the circulation of the atmosphere and gradually flow into the entire Lingxiao Kingdom over a few years, which should reduce the number of diseases in the entire Lingxiao Kingdom by about 10%.

Lingxiao country is not small, with a population of more than one billion. It can reduce diseases by more than 10%, which is already an amazing magic. It is only thanks to Li Qi that he is a wizard that he can do this kind of thing.

If Shen Shuibi were to do this, it wouldn't be as convenient as Li Qi. She would probably have to manually bury formations in various earth veins, and then stir up the earth's energy to transmit vitality, which would take three or four months. Only then can there be results.

Of course, the effect will be better.

There are still differences in the methods of each orthodoxy.

It is said that in Buddhism, just a jade purification vase and a willow branch dipped in water can make a country disease-free. That is another set of methods.

As Li Qi's technique gradually unfolded, a few hours later, this cloud of vitality finally took shape, and then quickly joined the circulation of the atmosphere.

These few hours were enough for Lingxiao Flower God to react.

But after the cloud of vitality dissipated, a figure floated over.

A branch of fragrant flowers filled the road with fragrance. Suddenly I heard the sound of sighing. For a moment, the curtains were slightly exposed. I stood looking at them sideways, and the fragrance was full of resentment.

The person who comes is also a beauty, a noble lord, and a god. His shadow is graceful and drooping, and his steps are slow and slow.

With her arrival, suddenly, I felt that the smoke was hazy, my eyes were full of beauty, with light makeup and elegant look, leaning against the flowers, looking forward to the time, making me unable to move.

Shen Shuibi frowned and looked at the other party.

But I can't fault it.

I've heard of the Flower Goddess's reputation, and it's really...well-deserved. She's so beautiful that it's a bit unpleasant.

But Li Qi was accustomed to it, and took the initiative to greet him: "The king of the country personally greeted him from afar. Li Qi was ashamed. By the way, this is my wife. We just returned from Penglai and happened to be in the Lingxiao Kingdom, so we came to see our old friend. "

"The virtuous couple are here, but Ling Xiao didn't check for a moment and asked the guests to knock on the door with gifts first. It's really rude. Why don't you go to my palace and prepare a banquet and pour wine to welcome the distinguished guests?" Lord Ling Xiao also said with great etiquette.

The words were clearly separated, and Li Qi's name was not even mentioned in his mouth. He responded directly to the two of them as one, which was extremely appropriate and made Shen Shuibi's expression relax.

After all, the flower god came out of Shangyuan's situation, so she naturally has a sense of proportion in what she says and does.

As for the incident with Liu Donghe in the past, clinging to Li Qi and pulling him into the water to support him, that was purely a matter of temper.

If not, how would Lingxiao Flower have such a reputation?

"No, no, I'm just passing by by chance and came to check on the situation. How is the king doing lately? I see that your injury is no longer serious?" Li Qi waved his hand decisively and declined.

Forget it, drinking with Lord Lingxiao, who knows what could happen.

"It turns out that the young master still has my concubine in mind, and even brought his wife to visit him, specifically to cure diseases and eliminate disasters for the hundreds of millions of people in the Lingxiao Kingdom. What a great kindness." The Lord of Lingxiao Kingdom said.

Li Qi didn't want to talk about this anymore. Tutu would be angry if he talked about it anymore, so he waved his hand and said, "I'm not here for this, but to ask the king about Buddhism."
