Hanging pot to help the world, I just want to live forever

Chapter 421 Rare in the world
The sculpture is simple and simple, very tall, but it is made of the most ordinary black iron stone.

Over the years, under the influence of rain and wind, the surface of some black iron stones has shown fine lines, like spider webs quietly leaving mottled traces of time.

He was wearing a short brown cloth, so he was not an emperor. He was facing the gate of the country, with his arms open, but his bare hands were bare and there was no trace of decoration. Only his bulging muscles and determined eyes were quite eye-catching.

And under the iron stone statue, there is a base.

There are two lines of big characters in the letter.

[Promote the benefits of the world and eliminate the harms of the world]

The tone is really good.

Ying Yao invited him to recall the news transmitted from Liu Qingming's spiritual mind in the sky, and quickly extracted the person who could correspond to it.

The giant of the Mohist family, Mo Qiu.

The founder of Mohism.

The first sage of the Xia Dynasty.

However, this sage no longer existed in the world when the Xia Dynasty was established.

I think this sculpture is a memory left by future generations.

The two lines of large characters on the base represent his lifelong thoughts.

But it’s just a sculpture.

The founding of the Xia Dynasty was only a little over a hundred years ago, which was not considered very long in the ordinary world, let alone comparable to the Immortal Way.

There are tens of thousands of sculptures like this in the world of immortality, and they have been used up for thousands of years. How can this sculpture in front of you trigger the secret method of heaven?
Could it be that Mo Qiu in front of me is the avatar of the God-Transforming Heavenly Lord who traveled here?
But if that's the case, it's not appropriate.

Ying Yao invited him to have doubts, so he crossed the sky and came to the statue.

Around the statue, there were students holding books and reciting, tired pedestrians taking advantage of the shade covered by the giant statue to escape the heat, and children running around the sculpture, cheering, and so on. .

At the foot of the sculpture, there is a circle of white flowers, which must be ordinary wild flowers, some of which are still very fresh.

Ying Yao invited to watch quietly for a long time. From time to time, people walked into the city, holding a handful of wild flowers, and walked straight to the foot of the sculpture. After offering the wild flowers, they left without saying a word. .

There are quite a few people like this.

Even among the people who gathered under the statue to enjoy the cool air, no one ever talked about the statue. They only talked about trivial things and simple life.

Ying Yao's invitation became a little more interesting, and she quietly used the secret method of heaven, and everything became gorgeous for a while.

There were divine patterns intertwining in her eyes, and she could clearly see that the statue was wrapped with countless threads. Those threads were entangled and intertwined with each other. The traces were very faint, but extremely clear.

mind power.

Huge, deep, and extensive thought power!
According to common sense, with so much mental power gathered, the statue in front of you should be more or less a vision.

No.

Those silk threads fell steadily on the statue, extremely quiet and rarely bounced, but they did not lose their vitality.

I am afraid that even the Buddhist Bodhisattvas and Arhats who come here would be stunned by such a wonderful sight.

"Universal love, non-attack, non-fate, heavenly will, bright ghost. Self-suffering to the extreme, death will not turn back."

Ying Yaoying quickly went through the core concepts of Mohism and even their style of conduct.

I was surprised to find that there was no enjoyment part in it.

The four words "self-suffering and extreme" are the best descriptions, and there is no more appropriate words than this.

How could such a person be believed in by others and still be remembered by others to this day?
Even if you are a Buddhist, you still have the next life and the Western Heaven to look forward to, and you have the great path and fruition status as your proof.

But the Mo family didn't.

Nothing at all.

Some are just the Ten Principles of Mohism and the sentence "to bring benefits to the world and eliminate harm to the world".

Simple, crisp, and unrealistic.

People can't help but want to say that they are whimsical and foolish.

But it is precisely because of this that the Mohist family has retained the purest part.

Even though the Mohist school today is far from its heyday, it is also far from the status it had when it was neither Confucianism nor Mohism.

The words Mohist and Mohist were deeply imprinted on the Xia Dynasty and the hearts of the people of the Xia Dynasty.

It was enough for them to deeply recognize that this is what the Mohists are like, and what the Mohists are like.

Because the leader of Mohism, the first Mohist giant and even thousands of Mohists after that, lived like this.

The selfish desires of the human heart are suppressed to the limit, with justice as its crown and narrow sense as its foundation.

Generations of people have come along the way, witnessing together, creating together, and believing together.

Therefore, the thoughts gathered here are so calm and pure, with almost no human selfish desires.

"Rare in the world."

Ying Yaoyin exclaimed.

In the world of immortality, there are countless statues that are more ancient, mysterious, and noble than the one in front of you.

There is no shortage of people to kneel down and worship those sculptures, and there are even many people with extraordinary cultivation among them.

But none of those sculptures can condense such pure and clean power.

Because people's hearts are not aligned, because everyone has their own selfish desires, the power of thoughts cancels out and collides with each other, and has been naturally exhausted long ago. The aftermath is not worth mentioning.

In other words, through the art of refuge and the method of preaching, Buddhism has achieved the Buddha Kingdom on earth, and it can still retain the power of sentient beings.

But the price is not heavy, otherwise where would the relics come from?

What is difficult for Buddhists to do was actually accomplished by a mortal.

Did heaven bring her here just to witness a human creation?
No, not right.

The view in front of you is indeed valuable, but it is not enough to look at all the worlds.

What's more, even if you hear the Mohist philosophy for the first time, you will understand that it is completely out of date and cannot be truly spread, let alone one of the nine immortal sects like Buddhism.

It only talks about dedication and not about gains. Let alone doing this every day, many people can't stand it in a month or two.

Even if there are some people who have ideals, it is okay to work hard for three to five years, and even gritting their teeth for ten years or a hundred years is not impossible, but in the end it goes against people's selfish desires.

Just by looking at the current situation of the Mohist family in the Xia Dynasty, we can understand that even in the birthplace of the Mohist family, everyone respects and loves him, but how many people are willing to sacrifice their lives to become a Mohist?

Everyone hopes that others will be selfless, impartial, and enthusiastic in helping them selflessly. However, if we use the Mohist philosophy to ask ourselves, we feel that it is too harsh, tiring, and daunting.

The Mo family is small but beautiful, but if they really try to save the world, they might have big problems.

This is not consistent with the concept of the Heavenly Talisman that transcends the world.

Ying Yao invited me to think hard.

Although the secret of heaven is right in front of us, everything still needs to be understood by oneself, to understand its true meaning, and to absorb the aftertaste of the great road.

By taking advantage of the changes in the human world and the creation of heaven and earth, we can understand our own path, clearly prove our original heart, conform to heaven and earth, and be one with the Tao.

"Hope? Persistence? Self-preservation? Or admiration?"

Ying Yao invited him to be puzzled.

It was as if a veil was covering my eyes, everything was clearly close to my eyes, but I still couldn't see it clearly.

It's like a long and lonely road, full of bumps and thorns. Walking through it alone, but watching the goal seem to be getting further and further away, I can't help but feel irritated in my heart.

The more irritated they are, the further apart they are.The flash of aura disappeared completely, and Ying Yaoyin still stayed in the same place, full of distress.

"Master Yingxian, I wonder what you saw?"

While she was thinking, the group of people from Gu's courtyard had already followed.

Emperor Qizhi, who was wearing a dragon robe and had white hair, walked towards him. Pedestrians on the street looked sideways. Some people from afar began to bow their heads, but few knelt down.

For non-military events, when offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, or when the emperor was traveling, the people of the Xia Dynasty did not need to kneel down.

As the Xia Emperor for nearly seventy years, Emperor Qizhi also successfully imprinted his prestige on the Xia Dynasty. His reign lasted longer than the Holy King Wang Mang and his father, Emperor Taiping.

Although his hair is now full of white and his complexion has darkened, his spirit is still quite uplifting.

Because he saw a brand new era, his heart has not withered along with age, and he is unwilling to grow old. In the last days of his life, he seemed to be a young man again, as he was when he just succeeded to the throne. Full of ambition.

On a mundane level, Xia Chao has reached the top of the world, and it would not be wrong to say that he is the strongest.

Except for irreversible natural and man-made disasters, no bones were left in the wild in the Xia Dynasty. Even the poorest people could beg for a bowl of porridge when they were extremely hungry, and the officials would find it for them. a livelihood.

Slightly wealthier families could eat one or two meat meals every month, and ordinary people never lacked food or clothing.

Although delicacies are rare, at least food and clothing are no longer a problem, and there will no longer be the situation of "not knowing the taste of meat in March".

What followed was a huge increase in the population of the Xia Dynasty in recent years, which even became a headache for Emperor Qizhi.

It's good to have more people, but Xia Chao seems a little not big enough, and the resources are really not easy to divide.

Especially now that the grand occasion of cultivating immortals has just begun, most of the cultivators in the Xia Dynasty who are capable of cultivating themselves are destined to find it difficult to stay in the Xia Dynasty.

There is no other reason than that the Xia Dynasty cannot afford to support so many practitioners, and even now it cannot even afford to support foundation building.

There are still countless difficulties hanging over the front of the Xia Dynasty that still need to be solved, but this is definitely not because Emperor Qizhi did not work hard enough.

His reputation has long been stable. Although he has not won the reputation of the Holy King, after Emperor Taiping, he has made the Xia Dynasty's prosperity climb to a higher level and reached the ultimate level of mortal world.

Legalism also became truly powerful in his hands, imprinting its imprint on all aspects of the Xia Dynasty, allowing the Xia Dynasty to have laws to follow, and allowing the Xia Dynasty's legal system to shine.

Under natural disasters, the surrounding countries were experiencing frequent civil strife and falling apart. Only the Xia Dynasty remained stable. This was by no means an easy task.

It's just that this kind of thing should not be taken seriously as one's own great achievement. After all, when he took over Xia Chao, Xia Chao was already invincible here.

The people can still be proud to say that the Xia Dynasty is still the kingdom of heaven, and all nations come to dynasty.

This Emperor Xia is quite qualified.

After three generations of Mingjuns in the Xia Dynasty, the outlook of the people had already taken on a completely new look. Even Emperor Qizhi himself was about to become famous.

It is natural for the people to respect and love him.

"What do you think the Mo family means to the Xia Dynasty?"

Ying Yaoyao did not answer Emperor Qizhi's question, but asked instead.

"The man who laid the foundation."

Emperor Qizhi said without hesitation.

The founding emperor was indeed his grandfather, the Holy King Wang Mang.

But when the Xia Dynasty was founded, it was Mo Qiu's name and the great righteousness of the Mo family.

At that time, many people believed that Emperor Xia was Mo Qiu, and Mo Qiu was Emperor Xia.

Therefore, there was a riot during Wang Mang's founding ceremony.

Without the Mohists, the founding of the Xia Dynasty would never have had the aspiration of the people, and it would not have been possible to quickly calm the uneasiness and fear in the hearts of the people.

It was by borrowing the glory of the Mohist family that the Xia Dynasty was able to re-establish itself on the ruins left by Dayue.

Although times have changed, the Mohist school seems to have gradually withdrawn from the stage of the Xia Dynasty, but this is only a change with time, and is the law and result of natural development. This must not negate the achievements of the Mohist school and its significance to the Xia Dynasty.

"Oh"

Ying Yao nodded gently, although he sensed the secret of heaven, he was not enlightened.

But it’s a good thing to find out.

She still has a long time, enough to stay here and slowly figure out what the secret of this place is.

"I'll stay here for a while."

Nothing happened, Ying Yaoying said naturally.

"no problem."

Emperor Qizhi nodded immediately.

No matter what, these are the distinguished guests of the Xia Dynasty.

Whether it is the Tianji Sect or the Tianyan Sect, being able to make good friends with any of the nine Immortal Sects is an out-and-out good thing for the Xia Dynasty.

At the level of immortality, today's Xia Dynasty has no foundation at all. It still needs to be accumulated, and it is the most difficult at the beginning.

As long as they take the first step and move towards the right path, Xia Dynasty will finally have a chance to remain immortal in the immortal world.

When he returned to the Xia Dynasty palace, Emperor Qizhi announced that Zheng Fei had an audience.

"His Majesty."

Zheng Fei bowed and saluted.

"Don't be polite. It's a good thing that you are valued by the Holy Maiden of Heaven."

Without any mincing words, Emperor Qi Zhi went straight to the point and said: "To be honest, Xia Dynasty does not have the ability to train you now, and you are not the only one. In fact, as long as the strength reaches the level of foundation building, Xia Dynasty can no longer be a help.

Water flows to lower place, man goes to higher position.The path of immortality is different from ordinary people. You are lucky to be able to join the nine immortal sects and the Tianji sect, which is famous for exploring opportunities. "

"Your Majesty, I am interested in the Xia Dynasty"

Zheng Fei wanted to say something.

"No, you have to go, don't delay yourself."

Emperor Qizhi stretched out his old palm, patted Zheng Fei's shoulder gently, and said: "If you have Xia Chao in your heart and will succeed in your practice in the future, you might as well take care of Xia Chao, and it will be considered a blessing to Xia Chao."

It's never a pleasant feeling to push one's own genius out with one's own hands.

But it has to be done.

It would be a waste of talent to bury the rough jade deep inside. Once such an opportunity is missed, it will also be a blow to future achievements.

"Whether it is you or others, you can freely choose to join any immortal sect. I just hope that if you have ever felt that the Xia Dynasty is worthy of its people, and that when the Xia Dynasty is in trouble, you can lend a helping hand to the best of your ability. The cultivation of Xia Dynasty.”

When he said this, the majesty on Emperor Qizhi's face slowly dissipated, and he became kind, with expectations for his descendants on his old face.

"Times have changed. It is no longer the time to cultivate one's morality, harmonize one's family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. You want to go to a higher place. The Xia Dynasty cannot support it now."

Emperor Qizhi held Zheng Fei's hand and said, "Now the Xia Dynasty does not lack Mohist giants, Confucian masters, and Legalist leaders. What they need is people who can protect them from the wind and rain."

"It's still a long time to come, why don't you know that Xia Chao can't do anything in the world of immortality?"

Emperor Qizhi said with a smile, but as he was talking, he suddenly coughed deeply and couldn't help but cover his face with his sleeves.

After the coughing slowly subsided, a rather thick pool of blood appeared in his hand.

The days ahead are still long.

But he didn't have that time.
