Xu Qi was like a serious illness. He didn't have much impression of what happened in just half an hour, especially from Yankangfang to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, he didn't know how he came.
It’s like a person with a high fever is completely confused. He has only sweated all over and woke up after sleeping.
He saw Yin Shiniang standing quietly near the stairs, and then saw Lan Yufeng beside him.
Looking at Lan Yufeng with a slightly red eyes but a happy face, he thought of when he met Lan Yufeng many years ago.
He thought of the workshop where all the terracotta figurines were also full of them, and his mother.
At this time, Gu Liubai looked at Master Xuanqing and asked seriously, "Did you know it long ago?"
Master Xuanqing raised his eyebrows undeniably, and as before, he did not directly respond to Gu Liubai's question, but responded, "Do you finally understand?"
Gu Liubai asked back, "I understand my mother, or do I understand the way to save them?"
Master Xuanqing sighed a little and responded, "You know, it's the same."
Master Xuanqing did not just let Gu Liubai hear these responses alone, but everyone in the tower could hear them.
Gu Liubai was silent for a while and said, "It is him who saved Brother Xu Qi, and his mother. Love is born from the spirit, and it is not free from the spirit but overrides the spirit."
Master Xuanqing responded, "Heaven and earth have sentiments, and all things have sentiments. This is the most mysterious and elusive way."
Zhou Lu'er patted her forehead at this time, feeling that she was indeed the donkey's head and couldn't understand at all.
"The world has feelings...all things have feelings..." Gu Liubai listened to Master Xuanqing's words, and his mind felt as if thunder fell, and it was clear. "No matter how strong a person's power is, no matter how strong the world is, it cannot be stronger than all things in the world, and the same is true dragon."
Master Xuanqing knew that Gu Liubai was already at the critical moment of breakthrough, and a strange glow flashed in his eyes, as if he saw a fruit seedling that Shen Qiqi had planted in his life finally grew fruit and finally matured in front of him.
There was also an unspeakable feeling in his eyes full of wisdom.
"Gu Shiwu, I know that your mother always says that I am close to the gods, but at most I do it but do it. But your mother is a true god. She firmly believes that she can turn things that are not done and cannot be solved, and turns things that are understandable. Many people in Chang'an, who can reach this point, save themselves, save people and help the world, are many of them based on her guidance."
Zhou Lu'er said secretly to Xu Qi, "Brother Xu Qi, I think your mother is like a god. At least she is like a god to you. Someone can easily slaughter the entire village. Such a powerful person, your mother can make him unable to kill you."
Xu Qi nodded slowly, and his eyes were blurred.
Gu Liubai rubbed his eyes, laughed, and then looked at Master Xuanqing and said, "My mother often tells stories to me and Zhou Lu'er, and I want to tell a story too."
Master Xuanqing smiled.
Gu Liubai slowly began to tell the story.
"The Great Sui Dynasty won the world and a true dragon. I feel that the fortune of the Ancestral Dragon has reached the Great Sui Dynasty, and then this dynasty will naturally be extremely prosperous. Everyone will live a good life. This emperor will be the holy emperor in the later generations. Although this dragon is powerful, the power of the world is enough to suppress it. It is full of treasures. If you take a little qi and blood, you can strengthen your body and prolong your life. The emperor's soldiers used the qi refining method of this true dragon to nourish their true energy. The emperor's life span is long, and his army will become stronger and more powerful, trembling overseas."
"But the stronger the emperor's army, the more arrogant the emperor will gradually become. If anything happens, the simplest army will suppress it. If there are any enemies outside who are dissatisfied, just send the army to destroy it directly."
"With such a simple and straightforward way, you can't imagine that the country will be governed so carefully. Anyway, no enemy can withstand the battle of the Great Sui army. Then the officials below don't have to worry about any worries. Just find ways to get more benefits and live a good life."
"The officials competed for extravagance, but the emperor did not think it was wrong. Instead, he thought it was a prosperous era. As an emperor, he was naturally more extravagant than his ministers. Therefore, although the army of the Great Sui Dynasty was strong and the practitioners were powerful, the administration was corrupt, and the lives of the people became more and more difficult, and he lost the people's hearts."
"The Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty and the National Church's Unknown Temple regard this true dragon as a private property. The true dragon is trapped in the secret prison. It is like being lingchi every day, with no end. Its resentment can be imagined."
"If you know the benefits of the real dragon, there are naturally many people who are greedy for the Sui Dynasty. This real dragon is under strict supervision. No one can access it except the Great Sui royal family and the monks of the Wuming Temple, because the Great Sui Emperor also knows that this is the foundation of the Great Sui Dynasty. With this real dragon, even if his strongest army is destroyed, he may soon create a powerful army that can spread the world."
"But the inability to get close to this real dragon does not mean that some unknown little things cannot get close to it."
"The insects and the roots of some plants in the cave may be able to contact the breath of the real dragon. Even if it is just a drop of blood, it may create extraordinary things."
"There are more mice in every city. Maybe some mice are approaching the cave where the real dragon is suppressed, maybe not, they just happened to swallow the insects that have received dragon energy, or the roots of plants, or perhaps they are controlled by some powerful practitioners. No matter what, some mice become evil things infected by the real dragon."
"There is a powerful Taoist who controlled these rats. This Taoist may be a Goryeo. Like a small country like Goryeo, there is no power to expand its territory and cannot obtain the rich land of the Great Sui Dynasty. The Dao Sect of Goryeo is just a branch of the Dao Sect of Great Sui. Not to mention eating meat with Wuming Temple, I can't even drink soup. This Taoist can steal some real dragon things like a mouse, and then I might think, I can't steal the country with you with real swords and guns, so can I secretly replace your emperor with us Goryeo? Even the Goryeo who I can control, I can't beat you, but can't I steal it?"
"Time flies, the Great Sui Dynasty was destroyed, and it became a stronger Tang Dynasty. Li naturally had strict supervision of his own bloodline, and this Taoist seemed to have finally figured out a powerful method. He wanted a prince in the Tang Dynasty to be the body of this prince, but the soul in his body was replaced by a Korean. He probably also discovered that a person's practice had an end. No matter how powerful the power of any monk was, it was limited to the talent of a creature like a human being. It was impossible for him to pass on such spiritual power to reach the level he imagined."
"But the spiritual power of this true dragon and the evil thoughts of the true dragon are different. The life span of the true dragon is many times stronger than that of a human being. The strength and vitality of its mental power are also many times stronger than that of a human being. So the way he came up with was to integrate the true dragon thought and the spirit of this man, and then build a bridge between the two people and let the true dragon thought be used as a guide."
"In this way, it's like an evil dragon on both sides ate a child's soul and merged with the child's soul. Then the two evil dragons interact and swallow each other."
"This is equivalent to the souls of the two children being mixed with the evil thoughts of the real dragon. You have me and I have you. This Taoist also thought of a way to keep his own spiritual imprint in it."
"If one day, this true dragon thought completely gains the upper hand, which is equivalent to completely swallowing the souls of these two children. Then after these two children are completely evil, his spiritual imprint may appear, and maybe it is like pinching the seven inches of this true dragon thought, and it can still command this true dragon thought."
Yin Shiniang and Lan Yufeng had roughly heard what the story was about, and their eyes were full of shock, but Zhou Lu'er was scratching her head and still couldn't understand it.
Gu Liubai continued, "In the palace of the Tang Dynasty, a seven or eight-year-old prince was attracted by a mouse. He thought the mouse was fun and chased him over and took a look. As a result, the real dragon thought inside the mouse invaded his body. In another place, a Korean child was also attacked like this."
"These two children use the true dragon thoughts as bridges, like soul exchanges, but in fact, you have me, I have you, you have my memories, I have your memories, and I can't tell who is who."
"Perhaps because of this Taoist's deliberate reconciliation, the prince in the palace had more things to do with Goryeo in his mind. Perhaps he would feel that he was Goryeo, but for some reason, he moved his soul into the prince's body."
"This Taoist man used all this to determine the final effect, and the other was that his mental power might be damaged, but when he was sure that he had successfully cast the artifact and the child in the palace was completely stable, he was thinking about killing another child, or a greater possibility, to capture the child and use it for refining weapons, or perhaps it would become something he could control the child in the palace."
"However, this step went wrong. No one expected that an ordinary mother would hide her son so that no one could find the people he sent. No one expected that this child would always remember his mother's words, always hide it, stay away from the place where he used to live, never look back, and always hide it."
When Zhou Lu'er heard this, she finally understood and exclaimed, "Brother Xu Qi, Gu Shiwu is talking about you! There is also a child who is a prince in the Tang Dynasty Palace. Could it be the current emperor?"
No one spoke.
Gu Liubai looked at Master Xuanqing's eyes. Master Xuanqing's expression was very calm and did not give any response.
For Gu Liubai, Master Xuanqing's calmness and silence are often the default.
Zhou Lu'er pulled Brother Xu's sleeve and smiled, "Brother Xu Qi, then you are amazing. At least half of you are the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"
Gu Liubai listened to his words and finally couldn't help but sigh, "Zhou Lu'er, you are worthy of being a Buddhist son. The thoughts in your head are really different from those of ordinary people."
