When Zhang Jingxiu heard Master Hu's words, he didn't get angry but laughed, "Good last thing, good 'we', you and those people behind you are determined to fight against Poor Dao to the end." ”

The Tiger Zen Master said, "It's not that we want to go against the Great Heavenly Master, it's that the Great Heavenly Master has to come and provoke us. ”

Zhang Jingxiu accentuated his tone, "The unification of our Dao sect is just to provoke you?"

The Tiger Zen Master said: "There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country." There can only be one voice in the world who has the final say, it is Confucianism now, and who it will be in the future, I don't know. We don't care whether Daomen has this mind, we only care about whether Daomen has this strength. We can't put our own safety at the mercy of others. ”

Zhang Jingxiu nodded, "That's right, because of this, Confucianism has spared no effort to split, suppress, and divide the Daomen in the past many years, so that the Daomen is trapped in internal strife, the battle between good and evil is not enough, but also the dispute between four and six, five or five, so that the Daomen is essentially divided into four parts, but you are still not at ease, and continue to add fuel to the fire, and subdivide the four parts into six parts." In the past many years, the safety of the Daomen was tied to the thoughts of others, and the Confucian Sect was unwilling to do so, so was the Daomen willing?"

Hu Zen Master said: "Confucianism is unwilling, and Taoism is unwilling, this is what the Great Heavenly Master said, 'do it right'." ”

This is a fundamental conflict of interests, not even between individuals, but between two huge groups, whether Zhang Jingxiu, Li Xuandu, or the seven hermits of Confucianism, they only represent these two groups respectively, they can decide how to fight, but they can't decide whether to fight or not, this is the general trend, and it is also what Zhang Jingxiu said, "we can't help it".

When it comes to this, there is actually nothing more to say, this is a matter of life and death.

Zhang Jingxiu was still holding the placket of the Tiger Zen Master's clothes, the thunder and lightning on his five fingers were swirling, and the constantly circulating thunder light illuminated the faces of the two, Zhang Jingxiu stared at the old monk in front of him, and his tone gradually became low, "Tiger Zen Master, speaking of which, we are also old friends who have known each other for many years, I don't want to be your enemy, but the situation dictates it, and I can't help it." ”

The Tiger Zen Master said indifferently: "If you want to deal with me, please ask the Great Heavenly Master to speak up." ”

Zhang Jingxiu said slowly: "I'm not Xu Wugui, Xu Wugui has killed many people over the years, but Poor Dao hasn't killed anyone for many years, even if it's an old man, Poor Dao will only suppress it in the demon suppression well." ”

The Tiger Zen Master said with a smile: "Even if you want to kill someone, in many cases, you don't have to do it yourself, someone will do it for you." ”

Zhang Jingxiu did not deny it, "Since the earth master doesn't mind blood on his hands, then the poor dao doesn't mind either." Today, I will send you off on your last journey. ”

Although the Tiger Zen Master had some predictions and guesses, he was still stunned when he heard this. Because he didn't expect that Zhang Jingxiu was so decisive, because at the end of the past many years, Zhang Jingxiu showed people with a gentle and benevolent hand, and there was always room for doing things, in the impression of the Tiger Zen Master, among the four earth immortals, the Great Heavenly Master Zhang Jingxiu was the best to speak, even if Confucianism did too much, the Great Heavenly Master would definitely give in first. But this time, Zhang Jingxiu was not only unwilling to give in, but wanted to do things absolutely without concessions.

The expression on the face of the Tiger Zen Master gradually froze.

Zhang Jingxiu said softly: "You say that Poor Dao is a benevolent person, but

Sometimes, Poor Dao is not so benevolent, otherwise he would not be able to fight with Xu Wugui and Li Daoxu for so many years, you must know that these two are murderous without blinking, where are the benevolent people their opponents. ”

When the words fell, Zhang Jingxiu let go of his palm, and the Tiger Zen Master fell down lightly, but Zhang Jingxiu's thunder and lightning were still left on the body of the Tiger Zen Master, and these thorny thunderbolts drilled into the Tiger Zen Master's body one after another, and along the meridians of the Tiger Zen Master, they quickly spread to the whole body of the Tiger Zen Master.

The Tiger Zen Master's face began to twitch, the green tendons flared up, and what was even more terrifying was that electric light flashed in the green tendons. Immediately after that, blue-purple thunder and lightning began to gush out of the Tiger Zen Master's seven orifices, and then more and more thunderbolts tore through his skin, gushing out of his body, and the thunder completely engulfed the Tiger Zen Master's figure.

The Great Heavenly Master stood in the air, took back the "Nine Yang Separation Fire Cover", "Heavenly Master Male and Female Sword" and "Heavenly Master Seal", looked at the dazzling thunder that fell to the ground, and did not see much joy and anger on his face, and then raised his eyes to look around, and sighed lightly, "It's a pity that this is a good scene." ”

Tiger Zen Master and this square cave heaven together, the cave is not destroyed, this body is not dead, the great heavenly master wants to kill the tiger Zen master, to destroy this cave sky, that is, to destroy half of the Great Bao'en Temple.

If you compare the two to fruits, the cave of the ghost country is the size of the head of the king of Yue, that is, the coconut in the mouth of the people, even if it is broken, it is not Zhang Jingxiu who can destroy it, so he can only join forces with Li Daoxu to divide and suppress the Tibetan old man of Hedao, and the cave of Dabao'en Temple is only the size of a mulberry, which is very different, and Zhang Jingxiu is still sure to destroy it. But destroying the cave built on the basis of the Great Bao'en Temple will inevitably hurt the Great Bao'en Temple, which Zhang Jingxiu does not want to see, but there is no way to do it. As for the glass pagoda and Guanyin statue that have been destroyed, Zhang Jingxiu doesn't care too much, the former was built during the Taizong period, and the latter has been built in recent years, which can be regarded as a new construction, and there is no vicissitudes of time.

Zhang Jingxiu whispered to himself: "In the eighth year of Tianbao, Dabao'en Temple was attacked by thunder and fire, and more than 140 rooms such as the glazed pagoda, the statue of Guanyin, the Tianwang Palace, the main hall, the Guanyin Palace, and the painting outline were turned into ashes, and the entire Housi was reduced to ruins with the Perfume River as the boundary. ”

The voice fell, and the wind rose.

The wind walked through the mountains and forests, carrying the fallen leaves, shaking the few remaining leaves on the trees, and the leaves made a rattling sound, one, two, ten million, countless sounds connected together, connected into one, as if the whole mountain was whispering.

The wind swept through the city, and it blew the clothes, the grass and trees, the tiles on the roofs, and the poles that supported the windows. The city, which had been relatively quiet, suddenly became lively, and the women who were busy collecting their clothes to dry, the children who were shouting, the vendors who hurried to collect their stalls to hide from the rain, and the pedestrians who were hurrying to their homes, hurrying and walking in a chaotic manner, and the streets were in chaos.

Countless voices joined together, connected together, as if the whole city was whispering.

The wind and clouds gathered, and the dark clouds at the end of the sky were like an army pressing the border, constantly approaching this side, and the sky gradually dimmed, as if it had been splashed with a basin of thick ink, and in a blink of an eye, it was dark clouds covering the sky.

Zhang Jingxiu waved his sleeves, and there was a dull thunder in the dark clouds, and there was a sense of dampness in the wind.

Seeing that a heavy rain enveloping the entire Jinling Mansion was about to fall.

Zhang Jingxiu stretched out his hand to retrieve his own dust from the ruins below

There was only a bare grip left, and he smiled bitterly, and his fingertips lit the grip on fire, and then he threw it down.

As soon as the grip hit the ground, it turned into a sky-high flame, spreading rapidly in all directions, and at the same time, a thunderclap lit up the sky, which was dark because of the dark clouds.

Then there were countless thunderbolts that fell on the temple, destroying trees and houses, and igniting fires, making the fire spread more rapidly.

At the same time, heavy rain followed. This rain is not like the rain of spring, but like the rain of summer, majestic and intense, and only a white expanse is left between the heaven and the earth. But this rain could not extinguish the flames in the Great Bao'en Temple, and the thunder and lightning were still falling, only concentrated in the back temple of the Great Bao'en Temple, almost uninterrupted.

The people who gathered in the Da Bao En Temple saw this scene, countless thunder and lightning fell wildly, and the glazed pagoda and the statue of Guanyin had disappeared.

Tianwei is like this, Tianwei is unpredictable, and the people are panicked, but they dare not go to find out.

As for the monks in the temple, they vaguely knew what was happening, but at this time they were in a panic, some hid in the room and did not dare to come out, and some had already escaped from the temple in the heavy rain.

Several Righteous Path Sect Masters already knew what was going on, and they also knew whose hand it was in now, and they were all silent.

They knew in their hearts that the Great Heavenly Master's move was not to establish authority, and only by killing people could they establish authority and life, only then could they express their determination, and only then could they warn those with ill intentions that if anyone dared to disobey the Great Heavenly Master at this time, that was the way to die.

Bai Xiushang got up and came to the door, looked at the black clouds outside, and said softly, "It's the Great Heavenly Master who made a move." ”

Xiao Shiyu came to Bai Xiusheng's side, his face solemn, "The Great Heavenly Master hasn't moved such a thunderous anger for many years. ”

Bai Xiushang sighed, "The Great Heavenly Master and the Purple Mansion made that decision, and there is no room for redemption, so don't leave it to chance, and think that we will bow our heads and admit that it is not, and if we go back, the Confucianism and Taoism families will be able to return to the original situation." There is no such possibility, Confucianism is aware of the threat of Taoism, they do not care whether the Confucianism intentionally endangers Confucianism, they must curb the unification and rise of Taoism, Confucianism is used to hegemony, they want to take the initiative in their own hands, and everything is their own decision. So now there are only two roads, one is war, and the other is peace. ”

Xiao Shiyu frowned and asked, "You just said that there is no room for recovery, why did you say the word 'and' again?"

"Absolutely. Bai Xiushang's face was indifferent, "It's not okay to bow your head and admit your mistakes, you can also kneel and beg for mercy, it's best to abolish your self-cultivation, cut off your hands and feet, and show more sincerity, so that Confucianism will forgive you, let you go, and maybe let you be a godson." ”

Xiao Shiyu immediately understood, "What about the other way?"

"Some people are afraid, saying that the struggle between Confucianism and Taoism is to the death, but the key now is not that we have to fight, but that Confucianism is aggressive, forcing us to fight. So there is only one way for us to go to the end and move forward bravely. Bai Xiushang first looked up at the sky, and then retracted his gaze to look at Xiao Shiyu beside him, "Why are the Confucian sects afraid? Because they think that the Taoist sect is really likely to replace them, then why don't we really replace them? ”
