Madam, please respect my profession.

Chapter 351: No Need to Talk about Martial Ethics with Wei Jinyao

The blue sky is boundless, the golden crow breaks through the thick clouds, and the sword shadow is as fast as a meteor.

"Whoohoo-"

The cold wind blew, Lu Zhan's black clothes fluttered, and the surrounding was filled with light green spiritual energy, and a faint golden crow aura was drawn in.

This is the "Tai Xi Yu Ling" method taught by the two monsters Bee and Butterfly. It is said that the two tribes were originally in the Butterfly Valley. In order to live in peace, they chose to marry and tried to give birth to a new species.

However, this plan did not succeed. Instead, the ancestors of the two tribes realized the "Tai Xi Yu Ling" from their dual cultivation. This spell combines the characteristics of the two tribes and contains profound principles, which is specially used to cultivate spiritual plants.

The two tribes inherited this secret method and carried it forward, becoming well-known gardeners.

Unfortunately, everything has its pros and cons. Although this method is miraculous, it consumes a lot of vital energy and must not be used excessively. Otherwise, Butterfly Valley would have already cultivated a large number of high-quality spiritual plants and become rich.

The little demons have been exploited by the Medicine Immortal for a long time. They have been using this secret method day and night for five years, which has caused their lifespans to be greatly shortened.

"No wonder he lives in Butterfly Valley. If he were to come out, he would probably get killed."

Daqing was completely destroyed 296 years ago.

The imperial city of the Great Zhou was extremely large and had beautiful scenery. Unfortunately, after Emperor Yuanzhen ascended the throne, he devoted himself to state affairs and rarely even went to the harem, let alone view the scenery of the imperial city.

Usually, the concubines were the only ones to kill time among the beautiful mountains and rivers, but these past two days, a guest came.

Lu Zhan said to himself, if the cultivators knew that there was a way to improve spiritual plants, they would probably try every means to capture the bee and butterfly tribes.

After the Great Zhou Dynasty was completely unified, it carried out drastic reforms, and many mountains, rivers and landforms changed. What about the old people of the previous dynasty? They had long disappeared in the rolling torrent.

Since Buddhism can make people's hearts empty and see through the worldly world, if my aunt were to discuss Buddhism with Master Kongkong, wouldn't it be able to cleanse her soul, make her less violent and more stable?

The common man is not guilty, but the jade is guilty.

Lu Zhan had just mastered the technique when he heard this and quickly opened his eyes:

"You'd better not use it. This method consumes a lot of energy. I'm afraid that before the oasis grows, I will become a dried corpse."

Fifty years later, the first thing he did after coming out of seclusion was to accept the invitation of the royal family to come and drink tea and discuss Taoism.

Lu Zhan fell into deep thought. Although the Great Zhou Dynasty had been established for thousands of years, for a long period of time before, it had been in a three-way confrontation with the Daqing Dynasty.

Wherever the grass-green true qi goes, the grass and trees become greener.

Lu Zhan was not worried about this. He had learned it without planning to use it often. Spending a lot of energy to cultivate spiritual plants was not worth it. The ancestors of Butterfly Valley created this method just to let the tribe members use it step by step, which would be beneficial to their practice.

At that time, the Imperial Garden of the Imperial City of Bianjing.

The essence of this technique is to transform all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in flowers and plants into what the plants need, and then use the energy of the Golden Crow to neutralize it and turn it into nutrients to nourish the flowers and plants.

Chu Wantang thought of the old senior and sighed: "Alas... one must have some pursuits in life, otherwise one can only be a thug."

This way Emperor Yuanzhen would have fewer worries.

Master Kong Kong came at the right time.

When it comes to this matter, Lu Zhan is also somewhat cautious. He shook his head and said, "I have already told Aunt Mingyu about this matter. Aunt Mingyu thinks that the old woman may be an old friend from the previous dynasty. She will handle this matter. Let's not interfere anymore to avoid causing trouble."

Emperor Yuanzhen highly recognized Master Kongkong's Buddhist teachings and found them to be profound, so he issued an order to invite his aunt into the palace.

He gets into action when he disagrees with something and has a unique way of thinking.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhan said, "Let's go find Senior Guihuo Hanshan first. His magic weapon is still with us, and we haven't paid him enough..."

After all, due to the fight between her aunt and the dean of Luyun Academy, the memorials impeaching her piled up, causing Emperor Yuanzhen a great headache.

-

It can also be used in case you come across rare spiritual plants in the future.

"Om-"

What's the point of planting trees?

Are you alright?

Lu Zhan did not dare to think about it too much. It was pointless for him to think about such things. If he really wanted to know, he could just ask his superiors after returning to Bian Jing.

Chu Wantang knew what kind of martial arts Lu Zhan practiced. Looking at the green grass, she said thoughtfully:

For Lu Zhan, having more skills always means having more options.

Lu Zhan glanced at the calm and composed Xiao Chu. He used to think that Xiao Chu and the Grand Master were two completely different people, but through getting along with them, he gradually discovered that, although they seemed different, they were actually of the same lineage.

When Lu Zhan practiced this method, he felt a slight tremor all over his body. He seemed to have merged with the surroundings. All the spiritual energy contained in the flowers and plants rushed towards his body, forming a grass-green true qi shield.

Master Kongkong has been in charge of the Chan School for nearly a thousand years. During his tenure, he worked diligently and promoted Buddhism. Later, in order to pursue more profound Buddhist teachings, Master Kongkong secluded himself for fifty years.

This old woman has been constantly causing trouble for the Great Zhou. Her obsession is so deep that I'm afraid she must be of great importance.

Emperor Yuanzhen talked with Master Kongkong all night and was deeply inspired. He felt his heart was empty and all his past worries were gone. Even his sleep improved several times.

"..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the Grand Master met Master Kongkong, the word "old bald donkey" ignited the atmosphere and Emperor Yuanzhen was extremely embarrassed.

"It can absorb the spiritual energy contained in plants without harming the plants themselves. This technique is a way to keep plants healthy... I heard that there are many deserts in the northwest of the Great Zhou. If you use this method there, won't the desert become an oasis?"

Chu Wantang said "Oh" and thought that this idea was a bit too much, so she simply changed the subject:

"You said earlier that the Medicine Fairy poisoned the herbs under the orders of the old woman from Southern Xinjiang. What are you going to do now?"

My aunt has always been respected in front of the younger generation, but once she meets people of the same generation, she becomes really irritable.

The abbot of the Zen school, Master Kong Kong.

Fortunately, Master Kongkong did not get angry. He was even very tolerant towards the Grand Master and took the initiative to propose to discuss Taoism with him.

In fact, the real reason is...

Master Kong Kong's study of Buddhism had long since reached perfection, but precisely because of this, he could not find any higher pursuits.

After fifty years of seclusion, he fell into confusion and suddenly could not find the meaning of himself. That's why he accepted the invitation from the royal family, hoping to find himself at the pinnacle of power.

Seeing that Wei Jinyao was still so crazy, unreasonable and uncultured after hundreds of years, Master Kongkong suddenly found the direction of his life.

If Wei Jinyao could be persuaded to "abandon evil and follow good", it would definitely be a great merit for the world of immortal cultivation.

For him, it is also a way to save all living beings.

Therefore, Master Kongkong took the initiative to propose to sit down and talk with the Grand Master. It seemed that they were discussing Buddhism with each other, but in fact, Master Kongkong wanted to unilaterally export Buddhism and educate the Grand Master.

Right now, the two of them have been discussing Taoism in the Bi Bo Pavilion for two days.

The Bi Bo Pavilion is located in the Bi Bo Lake of the Imperial Garden. There are vast waves of water for miles around. The Bi Bo Pavilion is located in the middle of the lake. No one is allowed to approach without permission. It is an absolutely quiet environment.

In arranging the two to discuss philosophy here, Emperor Yuanzhen actually had his own selfish motives.

Emperor Yuanzhen knew his aunt. She might be a little arrogant in front of young people, but in front of people of the same age, she was truly a lawless devil.

Therefore, Emperor Yuanzhen arranged the two of them in the middle of the lake, so that there would be some buffer space in case the aunt became annoyed by the nagging and could not help but hit someone.

"Huhuhu..."

Today, there is heavy snow in Bianjing and the north wind is howling.

Master Kong Kong had kind eyes and a refined temperament. He slowly opened his eyes and spoke in a calm voice:

"After two days of discussion, how do you feel, Princess?"

The Grand Master opened his eyes, and those bright phoenix eyes were less aggressive and more peaceful.

She smiled faintly and said, "Old Kong, I haven't seen you for so many years. Your mindset has indeed improved a lot. I feel very good. I feel relaxed and at ease. I feel at peace and content. Everywhere I look is a beautiful sight."

"..."

Master Kongkong raised his hand with a strange look on his face. He said softly, "I don't expect you to call me Master, but can you please stop calling me Laokong?"

Although the name is just a code name, it does sound uncomfortable. Master Kongkong feels that it is necessary to mention it.

"Oh..." The Grand Master sat upright, his expression solemn: "Xiao Kong, I have benefited a lot from your guidance."

Master Kong Kong simply stopped caring about the name and said:

"The princess is in a high position, in charge of the power of life and death. She has been up and down in the vortex of power for many years, and it is inevitable that she has lost her original intention. You must know that the world is like a sea of ​​suffering, and power is the temptation in the sea of ​​suffering. You and I must learn to see through it. As the saying goes, let go of one thought and you will be free in every way."

The chief minister fell into deep thought and shook his head: "This is both right and wrong. I have some doubts that need to be clarified."

Master Kong Kong smiled confidently. He had a wealth of knowledge about Buddhist rituals. "What's wrong?"

The chief thought with a frown: "You said that we should learn to let go of everything, but that is idealism. Many things cannot be let go."

Master Kong Kong smiled and said, "Many things, what are they?"

The chief minister poured a cup of tea and said slowly, "Take the matter between me and Chen Taizhi, the dean of Luyun Academy. I visited him but he spoke harshly to me. Why?"

Master Kong Kong smiled mysteriously: "Everything is about cause and effect. If there is no cause, there will be no effect."

The chief minister asked, "You mean, blame me?"

Master Kongkong comforted him, "The princess is quick-witted and speaks quickly, so there is nothing wrong with that. But all the bitter fruits in the world have causes, and if the cause is related to the princess, there will be bitter fruits. Your Highness, why don't you try to repay evil with kindness?"

The Grand Master drank his tea slowly and shook his head: "Everything is easy to say, but it may not be so if it really happens. If this happened to the Master, I'm afraid he wouldn't be so calm."

Master Kongkong felt that the Grand Master was questioning his Buddhist teachings, so he smiled faintly and said, "I have a clear conscience, so I am naturally at peace."

The chief steward put down the teacup and stared at the vast blue waves, with a look of confusion in her eyes.

Master Kongkong felt more and more happy in his heart. He understood very well why the Grand Master was confused. When he taught people in the past, those who were taught would have this expression, and then gradually understand his deep meaning.

Seeing the Grand Master's expression, Master Kongkong suddenly found the meaning of his existence. He held the Buddhist beads in one hand and poured himself a cup of tea.

"boom--"

But at this moment, the space suddenly twisted, and a strong wave of true energy roared in, stirring up several layers of waves in the surrounding green waves.

Master Kongkong held the teacup in his hand, and saw that the Grand Master, who was dazed just now, suddenly stood up. The purple figure was as fast as lightning and thunder, and clenched his fists and hit him.

"boom--"

The Grand Master came with great force and speed. Master Kongkong was caught off guard and had no time to defend himself, so he was knocked hundreds of meters away.

The Buddhist master practiced physical defense, and this punch did not hurt his foundation. Master Kongkong stabilized his body in mid-air, with a faint golden light all over his body. He looked at the Great Master and became furious:

"Wei Jinyao, what are you doing?"

The chief master moved, like a violent hurricane descending from the sky, and she kicked him without saying a word.

Master Kong Kong frowned, and the golden light around him became brighter. He dodged the kick, turned around and slapped out with his palm.

The Grand Master used his strength to fight against the Buddha's palm, knocking Master Kong Kong flying, and angrily asked, "Old Deng, why are you fighting back? You just said that you repay evil with virtue and are not affected by karma. Now you are not afraid of karma?"

Master Kong Kong felt that the Grand Master was unreasonable. He did say to repay evil with kindness, but that did not mean to stand and get beaten.

Seeing that the Grand Master was confident, Master Kong Kong snorted coldly: "I don't need to talk about martial ethics or Buddhism with you!"
