MTL - The Book of Troubled Times-Chapter 191 assessment

  Chapter 191 Assessment

  Yes, Sixiang should indeed have this original intention, and everyone in the world has this understanding.

  However, people in the world offer sacrifices to imagined immortal Buddhas and deities bestowed by kings, but almost no one has seen anyone offering sacrifices to the four elephants.

  It's too unreal.

It is said that Taiji gives birth to the two forms, and the two forms give birth to the four phenomena, which represents the evolution of the world, from the beginning to the cognition of the contradiction between yin and yang, and then to the cornerstone of the world view of the four directions and four seasons... But no one will worship Tai Chi, nor will they worship the two forms. Worship the four elephants.

  Sixiang is a little bit better. At any rate, there are four manifestations of divine beasts that people worship, and some people will still regard them as gods. Tai Chi and Liangyi have completely become a concept, and they are nothing.

  Even the Four Elephant Sect itself did not treat the worship of the Four Elephants as such an initial concept of the world.

  In their eyes, they are also four powerful gods, representing the incarnation of the stars at night and the master of the sky.

  That's why Wan Dongliu said that if the Four Elephants Sect has a leader, it would be Yedi... but he didn't say that it was Taiji and Liangyi.

   To put it bluntly, it is similar to the Blood God Sect, but it is still just a dominator belief derived from power worship, not a religious cognition of "Almighty God" and "creation of human beings". It's just that the teachings of established sects will naturally be combined with the view of creation. The people below may believe that the leaders of Suzaku may not take it seriously in their hearts. Otherwise, how dare they call themselves Suzaku?

   It is nothing more than comparing herself to the incarnation of the stars, the endorsement of the gods, and kneeling down to her for the people below...

Of course, it doesn’t mean that faith is false, it is true and fanatical. Suzaku Xuanwu and even Xia Chichi are very pious that there must be a **** representing the night sky in the last era, looking forward to and calling for his return, leading people to break through. Open this well and walk out of the boundless sky.

Believe it or not, it's really easy to see that no matter how untrue Xia Chichi's relationship with her "ex-lover" is, her belief in the Four Symbols is fine, Suzaku just turned a blind eye, He wasn't too harsh on her love affairs, just look forward to it for a long time.

This is the desire of the powerful people limited by power in this era to "climb to the sky". From the different inheritances they received, they developed into different sects, or the blood god, or Maitreya, or the four elephants, and then the selfish desires of their respective leaders degrees lead to different paths.

Although the teachings of the Four Elephants are neither extreme nor vicious, they do not take the current world seriously, nor do they take ordinary people seriously, nor do they have the advantages of being kind and easy to govern like Buddhism and Taoism. , on the contrary, all of them are extremely energetic saboteurs, and it is not uncommon to become a demon cult.

   But the man in front of him is very funny, with a heartbroken look of "Sixiang's style is very high, why did you turn a good thing into a demon cult?"

  I am not as sad as you.

   Suzaku thought it was very interesting, and deliberately asked again: "Do you believe in God?"

  Zhao Changhe said: "That depends on what the definition of God is."

"Um?"

"If it is said that it is an extremely powerful life with great supernatural powers beyond my imagination, I believe it. The Book of Chaos is there, and the ruins of the last era also prove it. Why don't you believe it? But if I am their mud It was born, made out of ribs, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, fortune, marriage, and marriage are in charge of it, and the fate of life and death has been determined long ago, so just listen to it."

When Zhao Changhe said this, he also roughly understood the meaning of "Winged Fire Snake" asking these questions, and said, "Want to test me? It's hard for me to have any sect beliefs, and I have different ideas. But you finally have this idea, which really makes me think." I'm so relieved, I never planned to fight against the Four Elephant Sect, okay? It stands to reason that we are very destined, and you, Venerable Suzaku, looked at people through your nostrils, otherwise it would be over if you brought me into the Four Elephant Sect together? They are still yelling at me, when did I offend the Four Elephant Sect..."

  Actually, he didn't dare to join the Four Elephant Sect at that time. The reason Chi Chi gave him Xia Longyuan's jade pendant was because he was afraid that it would be inconvenient to join the Sect if he carried it with him. The two were in conflict. Since he accepted Xia Longyuan's inheritance, he naturally did not dare to enter the Four Elephant Sect.

  Of course Suzaku can only admit that at the moment when he said that, she really didn't pay attention to this older young man who betrayed the master at that time, otherwise she should have brought it back to the Four Elephant Sect in the first place. How could she have left it in the Blood God Sect?

   Suzaku coughed slightly dryly twice: "Your Majesty sees thousands of miles clearly, and she has her own considerations. What do you, a young man with a fifth level of profound entrances, know?"

  Zhao Changhe lazily said: "It's not necessarily true that you can see thousands of miles, but it's true that you may be beautiful."

   Suzaku: "?"

Zhao Changhe said: "So now she asked you to evaluate me? What kind of position do you plan to give me? How can there be such a thing? I didn't see the advantage. I didn't see the advantage, and I still have this high-ranking look, treating myself like a sweet potato." Yes, do you dare to ask me to join the church? By the way, she is afraid that I will get together with Chichi, so she still dares to let me join the church. Could it be that she herself... Forget it, don’t worry about it, I am a vulgar person with a leaky mouth .”

Suzaku held back for a long time, before saying: "I don't know what your lord is thinking, I just came to ask you a few questions, and I'll leave after I finish. If you hang your neck, you don't have to answer, what does it have to do with me, rush Why am I losing my temper?"

  Zhao Changhe: "Then what else do you want to ask? You just ask, why do you have to hang up your neck and refuse to answer such a small question, how big is it?"

  Suzaku stared into his eyes seriously, and asked word by word: "What is the purpose of your martial arts?"

   "If I get closer, I won't be able to be bullied by others, and I can do what I want, and those who don't see me have the right to take care of me."

   "Where is it far away?"

   "The truth of the era, the power of gods and Buddhas, break the limits of this world, and go where I should go."

   Suzaku's eyes suddenly sparkled.

  At this moment, there were explosions of energy clashes and shouts from the direction of the main hall of the Taiyi Sect.

  Gui Chen's old voice echoed leisurely: "I know who is so persistent, they say I'm prepared but insist on breaking in... It turns out it's a barbarian."

   Suzaku soon had an idea.

No matter how many people have the same idea as her, they must admit that this method is indeed too crude, and it is not known how much effect it can have on provoking the court and the royal family. If things are easy to do, then just do it. If you are prepared, there is no need to force it, and you are not forced to go nowhere.

  Only Hu people have crazier ideas than them to make troubles, so they have to insist... Of course, Hu people may not have received the hint of Gui Chen's release at all.

  Yanmen generals don’t know how many Wang family members are. Once the Wang family changes, there will be no suspense in the battle of Yanmen now. The Hu people want the Wang family to change the most.

  But Zhao Changhe, who had been sitting there quietly chatting with her, suddenly stood up, raised his knife and went out.

   Suzaku subconsciously asked: "What are you doing? The barbarians must come from the top of the local list, so you send them?"

Zhao Changhe looked back at her strangely: "Guichen is also on the list, and there are arrangements for the home court. The opponent may not win well. Adding one more person's strength will give you more bargaining chips. Why don't you just stand and watch? You are a winged fire snake , you should practice well, not to mention that you want to sit back and watch the barbarians wreak havoc, making me look down on your Four Elephant Sect."

   "..." Suzaku has an ellipsis in his stomach.

  I originally planned to kill Guichen, but after a long time, I came to protect him?

  ——

  PS: Yes tonight.
