Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 326

Every thousand-year-old ghost that Li Xiuyuan has encountered is not a simple thing. From the very beginning of the Black Mountain Lord to the current ghost king, it can be said that all of these guys who have practiced for thousands of years are extremely difficult to deal with.

If he hadn't learned the Chejin Renshan Road, there would be nothing to do with them just by relying on his status as a sage in the world.

The best thing to deal with is the dryad grandma.

But that's also because the tree demon's foundation was broken by Li Xiuyuan after a thousand years of practice, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to kill.

The ghost kings in front of me are the same. They are no longer just evil monsters, but gods and Buddhas. They have extraordinary intelligence, powerful force, and understand the principle of time. As long as you know people's hearts and know the layout and calculations.

Even if you are powerful, they can still think of ways to restrain you.

There is a saying that is true, Li Xiuyuan is human, and human beings have weaknesses.

He wants to re-establish the rules of the boundary of Yangzhou, control the ghosts and gods here, so that the ghosts and ghosts here will no longer make trouble, and this is bound to arouse the hostility of some ghosts and gods.

Li Xiuyuan could foresee how difficult the road he was going to be, but since he chose to take this road, he would not regret it.

At this moment, he calmly looked at the ghost king, because he knew that if he couldn't defeat this ghost king morally, even if he took the immortal sword to kill him, he would only appear to be stern.

There are countless ghosts and gods in the world, it is impossible for him to kill all the disobedient people.

So the word reason is very important.

Because reason can convince ghosts and gods, if you can't stand a word of reason, then Li Xiuyuan believes that his road will not be long.

Even if there was a rebellion in ancient times, there must be a legitimate reason, such as the side of the Qing emperor, and the removal of treacherous officials.

"Although your words are somewhat reasonable, in my opinion, they are just fallacies."

Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved, and he said: "No one interfered with the operation of your Hall of Ten Kings, and I didn't kill the long-bearded ghost king because of the dispute in the mansion. , there is no way to control the Yin soldiers and ghost generals, and he has the supreme status in the world."

"Human ghosts are greedy for power. This is not something to be ashamed of, it's human nature."

"So, is the sage in the world willing to give up?" The Ghost Eater King grinned, looking very comfortable, as if he saw that Li Xiuyuan was softening and compromising.

However, Li Xiuyuan's eyes were fixed: "No, I can't stop."

"Why?" The Ghost Eater and Ghost King narrowed his smile.

Li Xiuyuan said: "People in the world will be punished by the law for murdering and breaking the law. If you ghosts and gods do evil, who will take care of it? Just like you are doing now, grabbing an old ghost who has no vengeance and wants to eat him Do you know what is the purpose of putting such a crime in the world? I told you that it will be beheaded."

"The operation of your Hall of Ten Kings is based on the distinction between good and evil and strict order. Only in this way can the actions of your Hall of Ten Kings be convinced by ghosts and gods, and only then can the people recognize it, but I can't see this. All I see in my eyes is domineering, strong, and violent, relying on my own powerful force to maintain my high status, not paying attention to the lives of ghosts, like a tyrant and evil king, and the rule of a tyrant will be overthrown, For example, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rose up and shouted that the princes and generals are better than each other, like the Yellow Turban army shouted that the sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand."

"Just ask, why does your kind of governance exist?"

After finishing speaking, he immediately looked at the Ghost Eater Ghost King sternly, and the weakened aura that had taken a few steps back before suddenly became stronger than before.

The ghost eater ghost king originally caught an old ghost as a topic, leaving Li Xiuyuan speechless, and verbally defeated this sage in the world, leaving him speechless, but now, the ghost eater ghost king has become It gave him a symbol of violence and ferocity, which made him speechless for a while to refute.

Li Xiuyuan didn't give him a chance to talk nonsense, and continued: "Ghost King, do you know why I took three steps back just now? Do you think I'm afraid of your ghost king's prestige, or your thousands of years of Taoism? Neither, but It's because I don't want this old ghost to die in your hands. This is my kindness. I retreat and compromise for the sake of being kind, not because I am afraid of you. However, my kindness has not been responded to, but you Just grabbing this old ghost and using him to blackmail me shows that you only have evil in your heart, no good, no reason, only power."

"The ancients said: Greedy husbands die for money, martyrs die for fame. Those who praise die for power, and ordinary people live for life. If you ghost kings insist on using force, threats, and violence to maintain your power, then since you have come today , then don’t even think about leaving here.”

As the voice fell, killing intent appeared in Li Xiuyuan's eyes, and purple light shot up all over his body, and in the purple light there were faint shadows of dragons and phoenixes.

The world is shaking.

His spirit is already out of his body.

Once out of the body, the knife must be used, once the knife is used, there must be ghosts and gods tonight.

"Do you dare to sacrifice the Immortal Sword? Aren't you afraid that the guests you invited will die?"

Ghost King's face became serious, he tightly grabbed the old ghost in his hand, and waved his hand again, the dark wind howled, forming a vortex, bound all the weak ghosts and gods nearby, and locked them in the dark wind. They can't escape.

In the dark wind, ghosts and gods frightened and begged for mercy, trembling.

Li Xiuyuan said: "The evil wants to kill people, how can I blame the good people for not saving them? My kindness and regress have not been able to get you, Ghost King, to compromise. If this is the case, why should I retreat? Today I kill you for the sake of long-term peace and stability in the future. , Today, if you don’t kill you, but save several ghosts, what you get in return is lasting chaos. All the ghosts and gods who came here, listen to me, if you are killed or injured today, it is not because of me, Li Xiuyuan, but because of this statue. Hand of the Ghost King, if you want to blame me, I have nothing to say, I am willing to bear your hatred."

With a single thought, he shouted to the sky outside the hall.

When the ghosts and gods entrenched near the mansion heard these words, they all made whistling sounds, like thunder and howling wind.

Another ghost responded loudly: "You really deserve to be a saint in the world. Your principles are upright and upright. Any sensible person in the world can believe in your words. How can we repay virtue with resentment? Don't blame the ghost king who did evil, but blame the saint who punishes evil. ?”

"That's right, it's the ghost king who bullies us and doesn't take our lives seriously. The compromise of the saint in the world didn't get the ghost king's response. He is so evil, how can he understand the truth of the saint."

"Using good to good, and evil to evil, this is the supreme truth of the ancient sages. Any generation of wise kings will be convinced by it. If you use good to evil, it will only nourish the emergence of evil and inhibit the development of good. Your reasoning makes the little god admire, and the little god is willing to follow the saints in the world, stop evil and promote good, restore order here, and peace in the world, and die a hundred times without regret."

"The principles of the world need blood and life to implement. The little ghost was a scholar in his lifetime, and he died for righteousness. After death, he became a ghost. Not to mention this body, he is willing to die for the world again."

For a moment, the ghosts and gods outside were all excited, they were either howling, crying, or screaming to the sky.

They were all convinced by Li Xiuyuan's principles, and were willing to follow him, carry forward this principle, and die without regret.

There are only two kinds of ghosts and gods who can respond to Li Xiuyuan's invitation. One is that they have good intentions and want to do something for this chaotic world, so they come to meet the sage in the world and see his way.

The second is to have evil thoughts, like these ghost kings, who are afraid that the saints in the world will affect their rights and status, come to suppress the saints in the world, and mess up this banquet.

Obviously, these ghost kings came with evil intentions.

Seeing the anger of the group of ghosts, the nine ghost kings were overwhelmed, and the reasoning among them was even more upright, not allowing any unreasonable rebuttals. Their expressions changed drastically for a moment, and they felt Li Xiuyuan's purple light leaping out, killing him. The idea of ​​waiting for the ghost king is as firm as iron, and it is rare to panic in my heart.

Although I don't know how powerful Li Xiuyuan's method of killing immortals is, I have heard of it.

He slashed the Wujiang Dragon King and Hua Gu's nine-foot-long golden body with a single blow. These are ghosts and gods who have occupied one side for thousands of years, and they are stronger than his own ghost king.

Even if I have nine ghost kings here, it is hard to predict who will win and who will lose.

"It seems that you are going to tear your face and kill us, the sage of the world?" The Ghost King's face became grim.

Li Xiuyuan said: "No, I will not kill you nine ghost kings, but only you, because I have confirmed your evil, and you are worthy of my killing. The other ghost kings have not yet determined their good and evil, how can I not distinguish between green and red? If you want to kill them, but if you ghost kings join forces to fight against me, I will not show mercy, because those who help evil are also evil."

As soon as these words came out, the Ghost Eater Ghost King was completely panicked.

This is just a heartbreaking statement.

The nine ghost kings were originally united to deal with the saints in the world, wouldn't this disintegrate the alliance of the nine ghost kings?

Sure enough, the nine ghost kings were not of the same mind. Immediately, the eyes of several ghost kings flickered. Although their faces were calm, they were already thinking.

As mentioned before, should he join forces with the ghost king and other ghost kings to deal with the saints in the world, or should he compromise with the saints in the world?

However, Li Xiuyuan didn't give the ghost kings too much time to think at this time.

Because the more you think about it, the less you can tell the good and evil of these ghost kings.

What good and evil?
The first reaction of a person in a hurry can best reflect a person's good and evil.

When the drowning person calls for help, the kind person will immediately run to rescue and call out to passers-by, but the wicked person suddenly thinks of avoiding it, pretending not to see it, and asking himself to be safe and sound.

For the lost property, the kind person immediately thinks of returning it to the benefactor, while the wicked person can't wait to take it for himself immediately.

But if you think about it for too long, it will be difficult to distinguish between good and evil. Maybe a kind person who is drowning calls for help and thinks that he doesn't know water and can't save people on the way, so he hesitates instead.

For lost property, good people will have the idea of ​​taking it for themselves when they see that it may be impossible to find the owner.

So this cannot reflect a person's most direct nature.

Therefore, Li Xiuyuan is also giving these ghost kings a test to see how many ghost kings are helping the evil, and how many ghost kings are willing to abandon evil and do good.

As his body froze, his head suddenly drooped, and a shocking purple light shot up into the sky, covering the sky with purple air like a canopy, covering the sky.

The ghosts and gods retreated under the purple air, the dark night sky became clear, and the howling wind subsided instantly.

Amidst the purple air, Li Xiuyuan's spirit stepped on the dragon and phoenix and appeared in the face of all the ghosts and gods. His spirit was expressionless and he was holding a simple sword. There was an aura that made ghosts and gods palpitate.

It is rumored that the sages in the world have learned the method of beheading immortals, and this knife is the embodiment of other ways, and the condensation of other methods.

This knife cuts immortals and gods up and ghosts down.

However, at this moment, a ghost king suddenly gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, and shouted suddenly: "The sage in the world has been tricked, and the soul will return to the body quickly."

"Long-tongued ghost king, you still can't control your tongue, but it's too late to remind you. Today, you will punish this sage in the world, end his life in advance, let him return to the god position, dare to leave his body, let him die today! .” The Ghost Eater Ghost King let out a grin, and waved his hand.

"Om~!"

Suddenly, there was a buzzing and trembling sound from within the dark clouds in the sky near the street. This sound was the sound of a bow and crossbow salvo.

In an instant, the sky became dark. This was not the manifestation of Taoism, but the arrows flying to cover the starry sky.
