Chapter 1,235 Black and White, Good and Evil
It was because of the guessed method of opening the door that he took the initiative to point out the matter between Lin Ruoming and the middle-aged fat demon cultivator.
Otherwise, according to the original situation, the plan of Lin Ruoming and the others to open the door here failed, and the next step would probably be to kill and silence them.
After all, who would be willing to share this kind of thing with others? Killing and silencing people is the best choice!
Considering that the two had deliberately concealed it before, they were obviously prepared to kill and silence them.
Once the fight started, the situation would be hard to say.
Especially on his side, there was an unfathomable woman in a blue skirt.
Maybe even Lin Ruoming and the others did not expect that there would be such a hidden existence among the people they found to try to open the door.
Maybe in the original plan of the two, regardless of whether the door could be opened or not, they would attack others.
Maybe in the eyes of the two, it was possible to kill the four of them if the two of them, who were in the late stage of the spiritual life realm, attacked by surprise.
Even after killing others, they would kill each other so that the survivors could monopolize the Xuansu Cave Mansion.
Unfortunately, because of the existence of the blue skirt woman, the two people's plan was unlikely to succeed.
After the fight, no matter which side wins, it is not a good situation for him.
Because he has guessed how to open the door.
Compared with letting Lin Ruoming and the others kill people as planned, it is better for him to take the initiative to expose their purpose. In this way, the identities of the two are exposed, and they will undoubtedly lose the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
In this case, will Lin Ruoming and the others still kill people?
I am afraid not!
The blue skirt woman on their side is in the late stage of the spiritual life realm, he is in the early stage of the spiritual life realm, and the human race, a man and a woman, are both in the middle stage of the spiritual life realm. From the surface, it is not a problem to fight against two late stage spiritual life realms.
Therefore, he is sure that after he exposes the purpose of Lin Ruoming and the others, the two will not dare to fight to the death. The best way to deal with it is to settle the matter first and leave Xuansu Cave Mansion first.
If things really develop in this way, then when he and everyone leave the cave, he can find an opportunity to arrange the teleportation array in Xuansu Cave Mansion or at the entrance of the cave, and then find an opportunity to teleport back to Xuansu Cave Mansion alone, open the door, and explore this place alone.
This is undoubtedly the best result for him.
Unfortunately, he was just one step behind!
The situation had already developed in the direction he expected. After he exposed the purpose of Lin Ruoming and the others, the two not only chose to keep quiet, but also wanted to bring other people to join them, preparing to explore this place again later.
Regardless of whether the two were sincere in bringing other people to join, their determination to take everyone away from this place was beyond doubt.
Unexpectedly, when his plan was about to succeed, the blue-skirted woman jumped out at this time, just like he exposed Lin Ruoming's plan, pointing out his intentions, making his plan fail!
Now that his intentions were exposed by the blue-skirted woman, it was probably impossible for him to explore this place alone!
These people guessed that he had a way to open the door, and no matter what means he used, these people would keep a close eye on him!
Unless, Lin Ruoming and others were all killed!
However, this was obviously not in line with his temperament, and there was also the unfathomable blue-skirted woman!
Seeing that Duan Qing did not respond for a while, Lin Ruoming snorted coldly.
"Hmph, now that things have come to this, Fellow Daoist Duan still intends to enjoy this place alone?"
Duan Qing collected his thoughts, calmed down, and pretended to be calm.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Lin, what virtue and ability do I have to enjoy this cave of the Xuansu Demon King alone."
"Since you think so highly of me, I will try to see if I can open this door."
As he said this, Duan Qing immediately walked to the front of the gate, closed his eyes, and his face gradually became calm, neither happy nor sad.
The way to open the door he guessed was actually inspired by Lin Ruoming and the blue-skirted woman.
Before entering the white road, the blue-skirted woman once said that everything in the world is either black or white. At that time, he didn't think there was anything wrong, but after walking through the white road, he realized something.
The philosophy pursued by the Xuansu Demon King is the unity of the world. He himself once entered the Sui Clan alone to mediate the dispute between the Sui Clan and the Immortal Spirit Alliance.
From this point, it can be seen that the philosophy pursued by the Xuansu Demon King is not just talk.
And it is obviously impossible to achieve true world harmony, to make this world a world of harmony without disputes, contradictions, and rifts between people.
There is good and evil, black and white, good people and bad people in the world, and this is something that cannot be changed.
The Xuansu Demon King is obviously very clear about this, so the world harmony he pursues may not be the world harmony in the true sense.
This can be seen from the two black and white roads he specially arranged in the bamboo sea.
On the white road he walked, the evil and dark side of human nature will be affected by negative emotions and gradually aroused. When the dark side is too much beyond a person's control, it will completely sink and lose life, just like Qi Chang.
Although he did not walk on the black road on the other side, it should be the opposite of the white road.
The white road arouses evil, and the black road may arouse the good in human nature. When good is insufficient, it will also sink.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, both roads are tests of one's character. If the Xuansu Demon King wants to eliminate the bad guys with evil intentions and dark hearts, the white road on the right can do it. Why would he go to the trouble of creating an extra black road?
He was a little confused about this matter at first, until he recalled what the blue-skirted woman said, that it was either black or white, and then he understood it.
The things in the world are indeed as the blue-skirted woman said, either black or white, there is black and white, there is good and evil, good and evil, black and white, although they are opposite, they exist at the same time.
Therefore, the Xuansu Demon King specially arranged two roads, one black and one white.
However, although the Xuansu Demon King tacitly acknowledged the existence of black and white, good and evil, he obviously had his own understanding of black and white, good and evil.
He noticed that when the blue-skirted woman with a pure white reflection tried to open the door, the movement was very loud, and even the light emitted by the yin and yang fish on the door was dazzling, but it did not move at all.
If the Xuansu Demon King liked people like the blue-skirted woman, who had a pure heart, the blue-skirted woman should be able to open the door, but the reality was that she did not.
As for him, who had only a few black spots on his reflection, when he tried to open the door, the yin and yang fish only moved slightly.
However, when Lin Ruoming and the middle-aged fat demon cultivator, two people with black and white spots on the reflection, obviously with ill intentions, tried to open the door, the Yin-Yang fish only emitted a faint light, but the rotation range was the largest among all people.
Noticing this, he boldly guessed that the key to opening the door was the rotation of the Yin-Yang fish. As for the light emitted, it was probably just a means to deceive people.
The key to affecting the rotation of the Yin-Yang fish is undoubtedly related to the reflection, or the mentality that determines the reflection.
Lin Ruoming and the others guessed that the key to opening the door was the reflection, which was actually correct, but there were strict requirements for the reflection.
Combined with the observed situation, it is not difficult to guess that perhaps only when the black and white of the reflection is completely balanced can the door be opened.
This may be the reason why Xuansu Demon King arranged two roads, one black and one white, for his perception of good and evil.
The purpose of Xuansu Demon King is not simply to exclude people with dark hearts, but to let people who enter feel the true good and evil on the two roads of black and white.
Only by truly understanding the true meaning of black and white, good and evil, and finding the balance between them, can we be free from the burden of good and evil. One thought is good, and one thought is evil.
If everyone in the world knows good and evil, black and white, then the so-called evil is not evil, and the so-called black is not black!
This... may be the world harmony that the Xuansu Demon King pursues.
