Taiping Inn

Li Xuandu is ordinary and wants to be meticulous, which is completely opposite to the style of ordinary scholars who cherish their words when writing articles, so it is inevitable that they are too long-winded to write. They write quickly until late at night.

About midnight, the door was pushed open quietly, and a footstep quietly came behind Li Xuandu, and then reached out to cover Li Xuandu's eyes.

Li Xuan had to stop the pen in his hand and whisper, "Don't make trouble."

I heard a deep voice behind me asking, "Guess who I am?"

Li Xuan was stunned. He put down the brush in his hand and reached out to hold the hands covering his eyes. However, he felt that the hands were cold, smooth and delicate, and he became more and more confused. He pushed his hands apart and turned his head to look.

I saw a man with a beard standing behind him, with a fierce face, comparable to Hu Liangyou's. However, looking at his figure, he was thin and slender, not like a big man, and his hands were clearly a woman's hand.

Li Xuandu's heart moved and reached out to grab the man's face, and he actually took off his mask.

Without the mask, the visitor showed his true face. Who is not Qin Su?

Li Xuandu looked through the "Baihua Spiritual Face" in his hand and said, "You bought this mask, wouldn't it just to scare me, right?"

Qin Su smiled slightly: "Then were you scared?"

Li Xuan returned the "Baihua Spiritual Face" to Qin Su: "I was really scared. If a man like Long Yang really came, I would have to break his third leg."

Qin Su's face turned red and she spat lightly: "It's not serious again."

Li Xuandu laughed at it, turned around, and continued to write quickly. Qin Su stood behind him, leaned over slightly, put his chin on his shoulder, and asked, "What are you writing? Could it be your "Legend of Taiping Inn"?"

Li Xuandu said: "It is written for the old man's experience and experience, I hope it will be useful."

Qin Su frowned, stood up, and whispered: "Then I advise you, it's best not to do such thankless things."

Li Xuandu stopped the brush in his hand, turned around and looked at her, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Qin Su said: "As you told me, even the big and small things in the Qingwei Sect cannot escape the eyes of the old sword god. So where do you think the root of all this is? Is it your third senior brother? Or mine Senior Sister Gu?”

When Li Xuandu heard this, he was stunned.

Qin Su continued, "My father once said to me, which comes from the three thousand words of the Supreme Taoist ancestor, called: "The Tao is always inaction but does everything." The Confucian sage said: "At seventy, you can do whatever you want without going beyond the rules. "Why Both the Great Heavenly Master and the Old Sword God gave up the position of the sect leader early? Although there is the intention of cultivating the next sect leader, there must be deeper reasons, such as letting the next sect leader shelter them from the wind and rain."

Li Xuandu repeated softly: "Hide the wind and rain."

Qin Su said, "Yes, shelter from the wind and rain. Uncle San said that the emperor takes the minister as his shield and hides behind the scenes. If the king and the minister cooperate with each other lightly and darkly, the king will be invincible. If you don't regard your third brother as the sect leader , but as the chief assistant of the cabinet, is the situation within the Qingwei Sect more clear now? The old sword god is the emperor, with a balance in the center, Li Yuanying is the chief assistant, sheltering the emperor from the wind and rain, and you and Mr. Zhang are Qingliu, check and balance the chief assistant, so that the emperor can balance the two sides and maintain the situation in the court. You three sides are just like the three-part world and the tripod in ancient times, and they are indispensable. The old sword god may not know what you write now, but you know and What can it be? If Li Yuanying is defeated, you, the fourth gentleman, will be the dominant family. Unless the old sword god is willing to support Mr. Six to check and balance your fourth gentleman, the old sword god will never let Li Yuanying fall. Then you What else does this mean?”

When Li Xuan heard this, he fell into deep thought.

I have to say that Qin Su's words have the effect of deafening and shocking, which made Li Xuan re-examine the Qingwei Sect that he was familiar with. After pondering for a long time, he murmured: "If this is true, it is useless. Everything is rooted in , all lies in...all lies in the old sect leader, how can it be useful? "

Seeing that he was a little lost, Qin Su couldn't help but feel pity in his heart and comforted him softly: "These are my guesses, so don't take them too seriously."

"You're right." Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "Now the sect is squandering and has become so inappropriate. If it doesn't regulate it, it's also expected to go from prosperity to decline. Seeing him building a tall building and watching him entertain guests, Seeing his building collapsed. I couldn't know that this was wrong, but did nothing."

Qin Su knew that it would be useless to persuade him any more, so he could only gently stroke his back to show comfort.

After a while, Li Xuan calmed down a little, turned to Qin Su and said, "I didn't see it normally. You are still a female Marquis Wu, and you have a great understanding. Uncle Qin will not allow you to inherit the sect leader of Butian Sect. The position is really burying talents.”

Seeing that he calmed down, Qin Su's mood improved a lot and whispered: "You may not be unaware of this principle yourself. It's just that because it involves the teacher, you don't want to think deeply in this direction. Instead, I'm outside the bureau. , see more clearly."

Hearing this, Li Xuan sighed, "Those who know me are Qin Baishu."

The two of them didn't say anything next, and looked at the bright moon outside the window together. The moonlight was silver and bright, quietly falling on the sea, and shining on the two of them through the window.

Qin Su whispered: "Where is no moon, why doesn't the moon shine on others? There is no one like me."

...

On the same moonlit night, the old sword god Li Daoxu left his true realm temple and walked in the Eight Scenery Villa. Also accompanying him was Li Rushi, the head of Tiankui Hall.

The two walked slowly along a path between bamboo forests, and the bamboo shadows swayed under the moonlight.

Li Rushi was slightly behind half a position, and did not deliberately keep his feet from touching the ground. Instead, he let his shoes step on the pavement of bluestone slabs, making a crisp sound, which was a different feeling in the quiet night.

When passing through an access control, footsteps alarmed the disciples of Tiankui Temple who were guarding here, and someone immediately shouted loudly: "Who is it?"

Li Daoxu had no intention of speaking, and Li Rushi spoke out, "It's me."

The man heard Li Rushi's voice and hurriedly said respectfully: "It turns out that it is the master of the hall. His subordinates are unscrupulous and have collided with the master. I hope the master will forgive him."

Master Li Ru said, "Get back."

The guards here are hidden in the dark again.

Li Daoxu smiled and said, "It's so great and majestic."

Master Li Ru said: "It's not about being awesome, but about the rules set by the old sect leader."

This sentence obviously touched Li Daoxu's heart, which made him smile again.

While speaking, the two of them had already left the bamboo forest and came to the shore of a small lake. Li Daoxu stopped and suddenly said, "I have a thought to no longer be the old sect leader, and from then on, I will only practice mysteries and seek immortality. What do you think?”

"I can't answer this." Li Rushi said carefully.

Li Daoxu said in a gentle voice: "I won't blame you, and there are no people here, just say it bluntly."

Li Rushi then said carefully: "If the old sect leader completely ignores the affairs of the sect, then the third gentleman alone may not be able to hold the position of the sect leader."

"Yes." Li Daoxu sighed lightly: "How can Li Yuanying alone suppress Zhang Haishi, let alone Li Xuandu and Li Taiyi."

Then Li Daoxu said again: "You are not Zhang Haishi's opponent either."

Li Rushi was not convinced, but he said this from Li Daoxu's mouth. He had to swallow it even if he was not convinced.

Li Daoxu continued, "Don't conflict with Zhang Haishi head-on in the future, I'm doing it for your own good."

Mr. Li Ru did not understand the cause and effect for a while, but he still respectfully agreed.

Li Dao looked at the lake and said, "The Purple Mansion is coming back soon."

Li Rushi was stunned again and had to say, "Just just got the news, Mr. Fourth has arrived at Guanhai Tower."

Li Daoxu did not say anything, which made Li Rushi confused.

Only Li Daoxu and Zhang Haishi knew about the hexagram. Li Daoxu was "the best", so Li Xuan was "the best", and one day he would have "the best", and one day hexagram would have been "the best". As for what variables will arise from the hexagrams and lines, we have to wait and see.

Li Daoxu always believed that he was unable to take the last step because he had never given birth to a "ganxia" hexagram that could intersect with him, so that looking at the entire world, thousands of horses were silenced, and the Qian hexagram did not grow. .

Even the "magic sword" Song Zheng of that year was vulnerable. Looking around with a sword, there are all dry bones and rotten soldiers. How can Master Li Ru understand this state of mind that "drawing the sword and looking around and looking at the heart is confused" arise because of "the yang alone cannot be born, and the yin alone cannot grow"?
