Hearing Taoist Lin's words, Tian Zhengong nodded, turned to the bed, and packed his luggage.

Seeing that he was standing still, Taoist priest Lin waved his hand and urged, "Take it up and set off immediately."

"Master, what do you mean when you say that time cannot wait for us?" He asked, "time cannot wait for us" comes from the Analects of Confucius, which means that time will not wait for us. Now that the news has leaked, everyone's situation is indeed very dangerous. Lin Daozhang's use of "time cannot wait for us" is also very appropriate.

, but he always felt that there was something in Lin Dao's long words.

Upon hearing this, Taoist priest Lin was stunned for a moment, then turned to look away and said with a smile, "It won't be long before people from all walks of life will swarm here. Before that, we must seize the time and be fully prepared."

"Oh." nodded.

Daochang Lin put down the water glass and patted his shoulder, "Go and pack it up quickly."

Not long after, everyone packed up, paid their rent and left the inn.

Taoist priest Lin had bought a horse before, and now the horse was tied outside the inn. Next, everyone would go to the market to buy another horse and a car.

On the way to the market, Director Lin instructed Li Zhongyong to buy a lot of dry food. These are ready-made meals and do not require cooking. Everyone will have to travel day and night and there will be no time to start a fire to cook.

In the late afternoon, everyone set off on the road in a carriage. It was a large awning with two horses and a shaft. Batulu drove the shaft, Li Zhongyong was the co-driver, and the remaining four people sat in the car.

The carriage left the city from the west gate. After leaving the city, Taoist priest Lin mentioned a place name. Batulu agreed and whipped his horse.

"Have you ever regretted traveling with us?" Lin Daozhang looked at him.

Shaked his head.

Taoist priest Lin smiled and shook his head, then said, "Martial arts practitioners often say that you should show mercy without mercy and show mercy without mercy. What do you think of this sentence?"

He didn't know how to answer, so he looked up at Chen Liqiu, hoping that Chen Liqiu could give him a hint.

"Don't look at him, I'm asking you." Lin Daozhang said.

I have no choice but to think on my own, "If you take action, show no mercy, if you show mercy, don't take action. It seems reasonable. If you can avoid taking action, it's better not to take action."

"You mean to endure it if you can, but to kill if you can't bear it anymore?" Lin Taoist priest asked.

Based on Daozhang Lin's tone, he guessed that he might have said something wrong, but he couldn't figure out where he was wrong, so he could only whisper, "It's better not to kill if you can."

Seeing the embarrassment, Taoist Master Lin did not push him anymore, but said sternly, "You must remember that one day you will achieve great martial arts. If you encounter any offense or provocation, you must not retreat and give in. There will be no calm for a moment, and there will be no bright future if you take a step back."

, Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is a common problem in the world. After encountering provocation and offense,

, must be punished immediately, and must not be tolerated or tolerated. You must know that tolerance and tolerance will only encourage evil and will never earn friendship and respect."

Taoist priest Lin started coughing again when he said this. He took the opportunity to look at Chen Liqiu. Chen Liqiu frowned slightly and waved his hand secretly, indicating that he didn't understand why Taoist priest Lin suddenly said this.

After he stopped coughing, Taoist priest Lin continued, "Behind tolerance and tolerance are not tolerance and generosity, but cowardice and avoidance. Take action when it's time to take action. There is no need to respect one's identity. Timely and necessary punishment is a good thing for both of you.

You will not accumulate anger or even explode in rage, nor will the other party take advantage of you and eventually seek your own death."

"Oh." I seem to understand but not understand.

Chen Liqiu on the side took over the conversation, "Master, do you mean to punch the evil person when he hits us, instead of waiting for the evil person to kick his nose and face and want to kill us with a knife?"

"Exactly," Taoist Lin nodded sternly, "Evil people also have parents, wives and children. It is far better to give them small punishments and big warnings at the beginning of their evil deeds to make them restrain themselves, than to condone, show weakness and induce them, and ultimately take their lives."

Hearing Taoist Lin's words, he nodded slowly. He had never thought about what Taoist Lin said before, but after thinking about it carefully, what Taoist Lin said was the most benevolent thing. Taking a step back is really unlikely to lead to a brighter future. He can't bear it for a while.

It is very likely that everything will be calm, which will only lead to others getting worse and taking advantage of their situation.

To take a step back, even if you really save yourself, you can't stop evil. The evil people may not come to provoke you, but they will provoke others. This is a cowardly escape to protect yourself and be alone.

"Do you remember what I said?" Lin Taoist asked in a deep voice.

"Remember." nodded.

"Repeat it again." Taoist priest Lin said.

After arranging his thoughts, he said, "It is wrong to show mercy without mercy and show mercy without mercy. If someone provokes and offends, he should be punished immediately. You cannot tolerate it for no reason. It will only make the other party take advantage of it, get worse, and eventually cause trouble."

We have to take action in anger. If we had taken action earlier, he might have just received a beating, but if we had just tolerated it and accumulated a lot of anger in our hearts before taking action, they might have lost their lives. If it really got to that point, it would have been us.

Their previous forbearance got them killed."

"You can teach me," Taoist Lin nodded slowly, then raised his voice, "You all also remember that as long as you can do your best, you must not swallow your anger. You must know that anger will breed hostility, and hostility will affect your mind. Be kind to others.

Those who do good to others will do good in return, and those who do evil to others will do evil in return. Only in this way can we achieve a bright and peaceful state of mind.

"

After Lin Daozhang spoke, the three people in the car nodded, and the two drivers also agreed.

Taoist priest Lin seemed a little tired. After saying these words, he closed his eyes. The carriage was bumpy while driving, so he was not allowed to sit cross-legged and meditate. He just closed his eyes and rested his mind.

Seeing Director Lin closing his eyes, the three people in the car also relaxed.

But not long after, Taoist Lin opened his eyes again, "By the way, what I said before is not to make you feel petty. You must retaliate. You must know that hateful people also have pitiful points. Before taking action, you must distinguish right from wrong and treat them differently."

After Lin Dao finished speaking, everyone nodded again. .??.

Daochang Lin looked again, "Do you hate your neighbors?"

I don’t know why Taoist Master Lin suddenly asked about this. He thought for a while and then said, "Hate."

"That ox was still plowing the land for them during the day, but at night they actually wanted to kill it. Do you hate them for being ungrateful because of this?" Taoist priest Lin asked.

"Yes." nodded.

"You are right to hate them, they are indeed ruthless and unjust," said Daochang Lin, "but if you think about it again, that scalper is only close to you. To you, the scalper is your relative, but to them

That’s just an ox that can be slaughtered to satisfy hunger.”

Taoist priest Lin told the truth and could only nod.

"You are all still young and have little understanding of human nature," Taoist priest Lin said. "You will experience many things in the future. You must remember that you should not be angry or desperate because of others' unkindness, betrayal, betrayal, or revenge. You must blame others.

I can only blame myself for being short-sighted and dealing with people who are not human."

Taoist priest Lin paused for a moment before continuing, "What we do for the world is not because the world deserves us to do it, but because we want to do it. We should never expect the world to repay the favor and repay the favor.

"

"Master, we have all remembered your words." Li Zhongyong said outside the car.

"Have you remembered it?" Lin Daozhang asked.

He didn't answer immediately. Daozhang Lin's words were a bit abrupt. He remembered them, but he wasn't sure if he really understood them.

Seeing the hesitation, Chen Liqiu on the side said, "Master means that you can't show your heart to others casually. Even if you are good to others, don't expect others to appreciate it. If you don't have hope, you won't be disappointed. I'm right.

,Master?”

Taoist priest Lin nodded happily.

"I remember Master." He said.

Taoist Lin nodded slowly.

In early spring, the days are still very short. In the evening, Batuulu

The carriage stopped, and everyone got out of the car to take some air and relieve themselves.

Batulu supported Chen Liqiu, and Li Zhongyong supported him, and walked into the woods on the north side of the road.

"Have you noticed that Master is a little unusual today?" Li Zhongyong said in a low voice.

"It's a little abnormal," Chen Liqiu said, "Master said a lot today."

"Master is telling us some great truths, why don't you say a few more words?" Batulu said.

"Tell us some great truths?" Chen Liqiu curled his lips and asked, "You have been with Master for so many years, has Master ever taught you any great truths?"

"Huh," Batulu raised his hand and scratched his head, "It seems not."

"Master's words today are mainly directed at Lao Wu," Li Zhongyong said. "Master seems to be very worried that Lao Wu will go astray in the future."

Li Zhongyong's words made him dumbfounded, "Second senior brother, don't be ridiculous. I am a cripple and I don't know martial arts. How can I go astray?"

"You can't say for sure. You should treat each other with admiration after three days of separation. You have a good memory and high talent, and your achievements will be better than ours in the future." Li Zhongyong said.

"What? I just want to memorize it faster." He said.

"Anyway, Master is not feeling well today." Chen Liqiu pulled up his pants. "Have you noticed that Master has been coughing?"

Batulu said, "Maybe I ran too fast and bumped my head. I'll hurry up and slow down."

"Okay, okay, go drink the horse quickly." Chen Liqiu urged with a wave of his hand.

Batulu tied up his waist rope and left first, leaving only Li Zhongyong, Chen Liqiu and others in the woods.

Chen Liqiu picked a piece of dead grass and held it in his mouth. He tilted his head and looked at Li Zhongyong, "What do you think?"

"I suspect that the fine needles shot out of Zhong Agen's body are poisonous." Li Zhongyong said in a low voice.

"You have poison-testing equipment on you. Don't you know whether the fine needle is poisonous or not?" Chen Liqiu said.

"It can't be tested." Li Zhongyong shook his head.

Hearing Li Zhongyong's words, Chen Liqiu frowned, "Didn't you find the antidote from the corpse before?"

"I found a few porcelain bottles, but they may not contain the right antidote," Li Zhongyong said.

Chen Liqiu stirred the withered grass with his tongue, pondered for a moment and said, "Master has been away for a few days before, and he left on horseback. Do you still remember that when we passed by Jizhou that day, Master once said that there was a man named

Doctor Xue, the enemy of the King of Hell?"

"Do you suspect that Master went to Jizhou?" Li Zhongyong asked.
