Chapter 279 (1/2)
[ask for a monthly ticket.]
When the old man Shushan said the last, his tone was quite severe.
That momentum made Ye Zhiqiu and monk Hua feel suffocated and unable to breathe. I can't help but want to retreat and leave the hall. No face to stand here.
”Yes, I'm going to pick up the books.”
Yi Tianxing didn't change, his face was still calm, and he opened his mouth and said without concealment.
I came here to collect books. Books are treasures. This can't be concealed from others, and there's no need to hide it. Facing the old man Shushan's clear and deep eyes like the sea. It's definitely not easy to lie in front of him.
In the face of such an old Confucian, it is best to choose a straightforward approach.
When old man Shushan heard this, a touch of praise flashed in his eyes and disappeared immediately. He said calmly, ”well, you didn't lie. As a reward, I can let you choose three ancient books in the XuanZhen hall, and you can take them away at will. As for both of them, you can't take any of them away.” speaking later, his eyes fell on Ye Zhiqiu and monk Hua severely.
A person should have the courage to act boldly.
If you don't even have the courage to admit, you don't deserve more.
It's not just courage. It is also a test to face your heart. If you don't even have the courage to face your heart, how can you climb the higher peak of heaven and earth. Become a real strong man.
When ye Zhiqiu and monk Hua heard this, their faces changed. Their minds kept rolling like mountain torrents and tsunamis, and all kinds of thoughts were colliding.
”Three ancient books?”
When Yi Tianxing heard this, he shook his head slightly and said, ”I am greedy. I want all the ancient books in this XuanZhen hall. I don't know if there is any way to let me take away all the ancient books. It is a kind of desecration to the sages to leave these books here. We should take them out to create more human beings and contribute to the development of the human race.”
In his voice, he made no secret of his idea of getting all the classics in the XuanZhen hall.
He is very greedy. For these ancient books, his greed will never hide.
These books are so important to the future of xuanhuang town that he has the idea that he must take all the ancient books away. Once successful, the whole Sutra Pavilion can really become one of the top Sutra pavilions in the Terran community in the whole eternal continent.
This temptation is too great.
”Do you know how many ancient books there are here?”
When the old man of Shushan heard this, he frowned slightly, looked at Yi Tianxing and said with a sneer, ”here are 305 works of the sages, 20 of the Analects of Confucius, 89 of Mencius, Liezi, Nanhua classic, 33 of Warring States policies and 43 of the fragments of Luban.”
”There are 134745 Taoist Scriptures. There are 658 game theories, 658 Dan scriptures. There are also 1032 ancient books of practice methods practiced by alchemists, and the book Huainan Zi written by the king of Huainan. The king of Huainan refined Dan scriptures and compiled a Dan Scripture called Huainan Dan Scripture , this Dan Sutra is one of the most precious ancient Sutras in XuanZhen hall. You're going to take it all away, young man. You know, being too greedy is not a good thing. ”
Old man Shushan looked at Yi Tianxing calmly.
The number of various classics contained in this XuanZhen hall is amazing. What he just said is only a part of it. Almost all the classics collected by the king of Huainan at that time.
Some of them have changed in the process of the integration of the eternal continent, and have become the most suitable works for the rules of the eternal continent. You can practice. Even the skills that could not be practiced before can be practiced now. Metamorphosis occurs.
The past remnant classics have become valuable now.
Here, choosing one is a great opportunity. Yi Tianxing greedily wants to take them all away. It's too greedy.
He is so greedy that he should be struck by heaven and lightning.
I'm not happy with Yi Tianxing in my heart.
”Only when people have greed can they have desire. Only when they have desire can the whole civilization develop and progress.”
Yi Tianxing said carelessly: ”Fish have a desire to leave the sea and fly into the sky. Therefore, fish turn into rocs, fly in the sky and become Kunpeng. People have a desire and want to fly in the sky. Therefore, Luban creates mechanism birds that can fly in the sky. People have a desire and hope to fight with fierce animals and monsters. Therefore, watching the natural evolution of heaven and earth, they create cultivation skills and become monks, and life is gained To evolution and transformation. Human beings have a desire for money to promote business development. People want to eat better. They want to cultivate all kinds of vegetables and rice. ”
”You mean, there is nothing wrong with greed and desire. If everyone's greed becomes rampant, the whole world and all orders will collapse and human civilization will be destroyed.”
Shushan old man retorted impolitely.
He could not imagine what the picture of everyone showing greed and being dominated by desire would be. It was absolutely terrible, the order of the whole world would collapse, and it would become hell on earth.
”I'm not saying that greed and desire need to be completely released. People are human because they have imposed a yoke on themselves at the beginning.”
Yi Tianxing shook his head and said: ”This shackle is called morality. Morality is a shackle that binds people's own desires. Before doing anything, they will consider whether they violate the moral standards in their hearts. Immoral people are demons. Moral people can stop even if they are occasionally dominated by desires. There are many kinds of desires, and they need to see their own position and purpose. Good desires come from themselves However, it needs to be retained. Only bad desires need to be bound by moral shackles. ”
