Under one person, the mountains and seas are painted as demons.

Chapter 219 Painted Demon·Taotie!

After the discussion, You Fang and his party sat together with a group of Taoists. After this competition, both sides gained something and benefited.

In this case, it is natural to strike while the iron is hot and sit down to exchange experiences. This will not only increase your experience, but also improve your own abilities.

For You Fang, this is the best time to experience the "Saint Thief". Although Taoist Master Bai has warned you before, as long as you don't practice blindly and just take a look at the wonders of this technique, then naturally There is no problem.

Moreover, after this discussion, Taoist Master Bai has also seen that the abilities and skills of this You Fang are no less than those of the "Saint Thief", especially the "Three Levels of Reverse Life", which is also quite "immortal". " means.

In this way, even Taoist Master Bai became interested. While lending the "Sage Thief" classics to the traveler for research, he also asked for the Trinity Sect's "Nine Prefaces of the Heart" to get a closer look...

As mentioned before, the two techniques have similarities and differences to some extent. When the two are confirmed, they will definitely be helpful to both parties.

In this way, You Fang finally achieved the purpose of his trip. After getting the "Saint Thief" classics, he immediately started studying them.

In order to thoroughly study the principles of this technique, he spent almost all the next few days in communication and discussion. It was not until a week later that he finally ended his trip to Jade Toad Palace.

A week later in the morning, You Fang slowly opened his eyes from his room, a light flashed in his eyes, and waves of realization suddenly emerged in his heart.

Everyone lives according to the Tao, and the world is in order. There are no great thieves, and no need for saints.

Support with the purpose of focusing on showing filial piety has become a common practice. In the end, some people cannot satisfy the so-called filial piety and give up support. So there are filial sons and unfilial sons. How to perform the duty of support and support everyone, no one is better than a few so-called filial sons.

"Xuanlu" says:

"Those who steal the hook will be punished, and those who steal the country will be princes. How can benevolence and righteousness exist in the gates of the princes? Is it not the sage who steals benevolence and righteousness and knows what is wrong?"

In terms of filial piety, crows are born to feed back. There is no need to show filial piety, but to fulfill their duties of feeding back.

Therefore, what the "sage thief" steals is this world, what he steals is the nature of heaven, earth, what he steals is the avenue of the universe, what he steals is ascension and transcendence, it can be said to be a treasonous act!

Zhuangzi once thought:

The so-called filial piety, brotherhood, benevolence, righteousness, loyalty, trustworthiness, chastity, honesty, etc. are all things that have been destroyed by human nature and are flaunted by humans.

This is the so-called theory that "the robbers will continue until the saints die".

However, this is exactly in line with the philosophy of practitioners all over the world. The essence of cultivation lies in the word "reverse" and the essence of "breaking". Human life is sometimes limited, and cultivation is endless. The destiny of destiny must be broken through. This is the true nature of a cultivator!

This is the essence of "Saint Thief"!

"call……"

"If you don't respect the virtuous, the people will not fight. If you don't value hard-to-find goods, the people will not steal."

After adjusting his condition, he immediately took out the "Mountain and Sea Scroll" and "Demon Painting Brush". A pure white painting appeared, and he began to write.

I saw that as the ink lines were outlined, a ferocious beast began to appear on the paper, with a strange shape and a sinister look on its face.

Laozi once said in the Tao Te Ching:

Suddenly, everything about the "Saint Thief" emerged before his eyes, and he began to understand it carefully and make a final conclusion.

So what the "saints" steal is naturally everything in the nature of the world and all the substances that can help them transcend. Since ordinary people have no access to it, they naturally cannot detect it.

With this thought, You Fang took a long breath. At this point, his understanding was enough, and it was time to proceed to the next step.

Therefore, from a certain perspective, the existence of "saints" is the source of "big thieves", and the things "stolen" by "saints" are far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The princes have stolen benevolence, righteousness and sage knowledge, and it is unimaginable to gain more than one country. So what should the sages have stolen?

Looking back at the "saints" throughout the ages, they are all extraordinary and extraordinary people. Their ambitions have long been separated from ordinary material and worldly disputes. What they pursue is transcendence of heaven and earth, and the Tao follows the natural way.

This is the same principle. It means that "worship" brings about "disaster", and "valuable goods" only bring about "theft". If the world is unified, there will be natural harmony.

Therefore, "saint" and "thief" are like "black" and "white". They are mutually opposite and interdependent. Only with one can there be the other, and without this there is no existence of the other.

In other words, the "saint" is born from the "thief", and the "thief" exists from the "saint". The two are opposite but unified and inseparable.

Another example is that everyone lines up, which is better than a group of people who are noisy and have a few good-quality people who are humble.

A moment later, this strange beast was completely formed, with a sheep body and a human face, eyes under the armpits, tiger teeth and human claws, and it looked extremely fierce.

"Ha ha……"

Stopping the brush in his hand and looking at the ferocious beast in the painting, You Fang grinned and a smile appeared on his face.

Long before he started writing, he had already thought about what the "saint thief" would paint. When he saw it, it was as expected.

Taotie is a ferocious and gluttonous beast in ancient myths and legends. It is one of the four ferocious beasts and a symbol of "greed".

"Shenyi Jing·Southwestern Wilderness Jing" contains:

"There is a man in the southwest who has a hairy body and wears a pig on his head. He is as greedy as a wolf. He likes to accumulate wealth for himself and does not eat other people's crops. The strong take the old and the weak. They are afraid of the strong and attack singles. They are called gluttons."

I have to say that the word "greed" really sums up the essence of practitioners in the world. If you are not greedy, you will not be able to embark on spiritual practice.

If there is no greed, the practitioner will not be able to make progress; if there is no greed, it will be impossible to lose blood for the sake of magic and secret treasures, just to get a chance of breakthrough.

Soon, You Fang put away the "demon painting brush", and then he put his thoughts into the painting and felt it carefully. After a while, his face showed joy...

The power of this "Taotie Picture" is very simple. It can devour all the swallowable things around it and condense them into essence for its own use. In other words, whether it is "matter" or "energy", as long as he wants, Everything can be used!

"It's really a very useful ability!" After feeling it, You Fang's face became more smiley. There is no doubt that this ability can be used as a temporary supplement and can also assist in daily practice.

"With this 'Taotie Picture' here, my cultivation speed can be improved a lot!" While thinking, he looked at it carefully for a moment before putting away the picture.

At this point, the trip to Jade Toad Palace was completely over, and the group left after having breakfast.

After Hainan, their next stop was to head west, so they bought another ticket and waited...

……

……

at the same time. On the other side, the Zhuge family waited for more than a week and finally received the unexpected unexpected guest.

At this time, outside Zhuge Village, a large number of people were blocking the entrance of the village, blocking the originally spacious road at the entrance of the village.

There are destined to be no tourists coming to Zhuge Village today, because all the roads leading to the village were destroyed overnight, and the construction team is working hard to repair it. Before it is repaired, it is impossible for cars to come in.

And all of this was naturally the work of the Lu family. After a week of preparation, Mr. Lu was finally ready and started to take action.

"Here, Mr. Lu is coming. Why don't you give any notice so that I can greet you personally." After hearing about the battle at the door, the head of the Zhuge family immediately rushed to the entrance of the village. When he saw the leader, Mr. Lu, he immediately smiled. meaning.

"Come on, come on, all the talents of the Lu family, please come inside. Since you are here at my Zhuge family, I naturally have to treat you well." With that, he was about to welcome them into the village.

"Huh, no need, I think it's good here!" When Mr. Lu saw this, he didn't appreciate it at all. He just snorted angrily and had no intention of moving.

The old man is not a fool, so he naturally knows that the large formation in Zhuge Village is no joke. Although the other party may not dare to use this large formation to deal with him, for the sake of caution, he still has to hold the initiative in his hands.

"This……"

When Zhuge Gong heard this, he immediately understood what Mr. Lu meant, and couldn't help but roll his eyes, showing embarrassment.

moment……

"Since Mr. Lu refuses to come in, it must be something important. I don't know why you came here. Is there anything the Zhuge family can do to help?" He asked again with a smile on his face.

"Asking questions knowingly!"

Mr. Lu naturally doesn't have a good face towards this bunch of foxes from the Zhuge family. Since they dare to plot against the Lu family, they must bear the Lu family's wrath.

"Don't tell me that you don't know what your precious son did some time ago. If you still act stupid here, don't blame me, the Lu family, for being rude!"

As he said that, Mr. Lu clapped his hands and heard a "rumbling" sound, and several excavators drove up from behind, all of them heavyweights.

Looking at this situation, if the Zhuge family dares not to admit it, Mr. Lu will dare to command his construction team to dig out the courtyard walls of Zhuge Village. No matter how powerful the formation in his village is, they will never be able to control this external force. !

"Hey, hey, Mr. Lu, what are you doing? If you have something to say, please tell me!" Seeing this battle, Zhuge Gong's face suddenly turned pale.

"Of course I know about the problem you are talking about. It was Ah Qing who did something wrong this time. I have already taught him a lesson, and he is still in solitary confinement!"

"Imprisonment? Huh!" Upon hearing this, Mr. Lu snorted disdainfully, "I don't think he's in solitary confinement, but I want to protect him!"

"Zhuge Gong, although your family and I are not far apart, we have always been in harmony with each other. Even if you need anything on weekdays, the Lu family is always there to help you. Is this how you treat us?"

"No, Mr. Lu is serious. Quanzi's move is not on behalf of the Zhuge family, but his personal behavior. We must remember the good things the Lu family did to us in the past, and we will never repay kindness with enmity!" Zhuge Gong! Hearing this, he quickly waved his hand and stood up.

"To be honest, Quanzi has been practicing the secret method of my Zhuge family recently. Due to some mistakes, he went a little crazy and his ideas became biased. That's why he did such a stupid thing without the knowledge of the clan!"

After saying that, Zhuge Gong sincerely bowed to Mr. Lu to express his apology, and at the same time said: "No matter what, this matter is indeed Quanzi's fault. Mr. Lu wants to do whatever he wants to make him feel comfortable. I, the Zhuge family, will cooperate." .”

"It's just that Quanzi went crazy before and was seriously injured in the mountains. He really can't withstand the extra stimulation. If Mr. Lu has any request, just ask for it. Any punishment will be taken by me, the father!"

"Hmph! Such a deep love between father and son, you wouldn't think that I wouldn't do anything, would you?" Upon hearing this, Mr. Lu immediately saw Zhuge Gong's plan and couldn't help but roared angrily.

"Zhuge Gong, let me tell you, my Lu family is not someone you can bully if you want. If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation for this matter..."

"Yes, what Mr. Lu said is true. We will naturally give you the explanations that should be given. Please don't be anxious, Mr. Lu." Before Mr. Lu could finish speaking, Zhuge Gong nodded in response.

"Okay, Mr. Lu, I just got a precious magic weapon here, so I will give it to the Lu family as an apology. At the same time, I will ask everyone from the Zhuge family to come and apologize to the Lu family. I wonder if this will calm the old man down?"

It has to be said that Zhuge Gong was really well prepared. Not only had he prepared some things to apologize to, but his attitude was always groveling and groveling, leaving no room for Mr. Lu to find fault.

In addition, You Fang had already punished Zhuge Qing before, and Mr. Lu would be unjustifiable if he continued to be unforgiving. He obviously saw this clearly and was so cooperative.

"Oh, you are really an old fox..."

Mr. Lu naturally wanted to get this, but since he brought people here this time, it was impossible to let Zhuge Qing go so easily.

So...

"I can accept the apology, and I can also accept the apology from your entire clan, but the most important thing is that you must do it. I want that boy Zhuge Qing to come to me in person and apologize to me seriously and sincerely. Just one gift will do!”

"This……"

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Gong immediately showed a troubled expression. He would make the same statement as before, in order to prevent his son from coming forward to ensure his safety.

"What? Not willing? Then our Lu family won't accept the rest!" When Mr. Lu saw this, he immediately said. This is his bottom line and the only sincerity that the Zhuge family can express.

"Here, please give Mr. Lu a thumbs up..."

"Dad."

However, just when Zhuge Gong wanted to persuade him again, he heard a familiar voice coming from behind him. He immediately turned around and found his son standing at the gate of the village.

"Mr. Lu and junior Zhuge Qing are here to apologize to the Lu family!"

Zhuge Qing said, ignoring the obstruction of his clan members, he quickly walked up to Mr. Lu and bowed.

"Everyone is responsible for what he does. No matter what punishment Mr. Lu has, I am willing to bear it alone. Please don't embarrass my people."

After saying that, he knelt down directly!
