Chapter 384: The Bitter Old Man Seeks a Sword
Hearing Huan Yin's question, Yue Fengyun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The identity of the adult is very important, so naturally it is impossible to be revealed to Ku Lao. However, with Ku Lao's insight and ability to obtain information, coupled with his extraordinary vision, even if he doesn't know the exact identity of the adult, he should be able to guess that the identity and status of the adult must be extremely extraordinary, and he can also guess that the adult has a pivotal role in my Eastern Eight Heavens. ”
Huan Yin raised his eyebrows, showing a somewhat interested look, and said, "Oh, there really is such a strange person in this world, and he has not met me, but he can already know me?"
"This is not surprising if it is for the bitter old. Jiang opened his mouth, and a little admiration could be heard in his voice, and it seemed that even he was a little impressed by this old man.
After thinking about it, Huan Yin said: "Since this bitter old man is a representative of the people, and he chose to come to see me at this time, I think I have something to say." In this case, it is better for me to invite him in and join us in the feast, for rejecting him is like turning the people away, which is not good. ”
"Moreover, the bitter old man is so extraordinary, I also want to take this opportunity to see it, if I can listen to a few teachings, it will be beneficial to me, and perhaps, it will also be beneficial to the whole Oriental Eight Days. ”
Huan Yin spoke, so naturally no one would say the word "no". So soon after, a seat was added to the hall, and outsiders would arrive soon, and Huan Yin and they were all a little restrained.
Then, the servant in charge of the message appeared at the door of the Golden Temple, and behind him, an old man in a blue plain robe, with a pine cane, and gray hair followed closely.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the bitter old man has arrived. The messenger stopped at the door with the old man, stood respectfully, and then said loudly to the inside.
Huan Yin hurriedly stood up, walked to the door in a few big steps, and took a closer look at the old man standing there at a glance. I saw that the old man's face was withered, as if he had gone through incredible years. But the color of his withered face was extremely ruddy, as if he was a newborn baby. In this way, this old man feels a little strange, and he can't tell how long he is.
The old man's eyes were bright and bright. Huan Yin only glanced at him, as if he had seen a sea of stars, and he only felt unfathomable, even he was far behind.
However, the old man's cultivation is on the low side, and he is like an ant compared to Huan Yin. Huan Yin probed the old man with his divine sense, and he only felt that he had seen the old man inside and out in an instant, and it seemed that the old man was not qualified to talk about the word "profound" in front of him.
Thinking of Yue Fengyun's words when he talked about the bitter old man before, Huan Yin couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart, thinking that it was the first time he had seen such a person. Soon, when the old man saw Huan Yin walking to him, he immediately put his crutches on the ground, and he was about to bow down and make a big bow to Huan Yin.
Huan Yin hurriedly held the old man up, and when the old man looked up at Huan Yin, he said: "The ascetic heard that Lord Xi had been in the east of me for eight days, and he took the liberty to come to visit, and I hope that Lord will forgive me for the crime of disturbing." ”
When the old man spoke, his voice was sonorous and powerful, not at all like the voice of his twilight years. Moreover, his tone is sincere and courteous, which makes people naturally feel a sense of closeness.
Huan Yin helped the old man pick up the crutches and put them back in the old man's hand, and then said: "You are the bitter old man, right? I stayed in the East for eight days, but I didn't hear the name of the bitter old man, and I didn't have the honor to visit him, so I am really ashamed." Today, the bitter old man is here, and he is willing to accompany him and listen to the teachings. ”
Seeing that Huan was so polite, his eyes suddenly appeared bright, and after looking at the situation in the Golden Palace, he said: "The adults are halfway through the table, it is when the atmosphere is strong, and I am really grateful for being distracted by my old bones." In this way, the old decay will be cheeky and disturbed. ”
Huan Yin said: "The seat is ready, sit down quickly, and we can have a good talk." ”
So, Huan Yin took Ku Lao's hand and brought Ku Lao to the seat, and the banquet continued again.
With the addition of the bitter elders, Huan Yin naturally didn't let them go so much. However, Ku Lao, an outsider, entered the table halfway, and he quickly became one with everyone. His speech and demeanor are appropriate, his words are sincere and just right, and he is even more eloquent, which makes it difficult for people not to be close.
During the banquet, the one who talked to the bitter old man the most was naturally Huan Yin. He heard that everyone respected this bitter old man very much, and he really had the heart to seek advice, so he half chatted and half asked for advice.
Ku Lao is really extraordinary, no matter what questions Huan Yin has, he can slowly solve his doubts for Huan Yin, even some profound avenues that Huan Yin can't see through, Ku Lao has an answer here. Although Huan is not enough in the realm, he often can't have an epiphany, but between the three words, if he opens a door to cognition for Huan Yin, it is like enlightenment, and Huan Yin naturally benefits a lot.
The more words, the more Huan Yin felt that Ku Lao was unfathomable, Ku Lao was like an ancient classic, what Huan Yin didn't know, what he didn't understand, in him, more or less he could find some insights and answers.
However, the more he communicated, the more Huan Yin discovered that the bitter old man was not simple, and it was not most obvious in his profound knowledge. The most admirable thing about Ku Lao is himself.
The self-cultivation of the bitter old has reached an incredible level. The natural bearing he showed between his gestures was far more than just affinity. He himself is a model for how to behave in the world, and people can't help but want to imitate and learn.
Unconsciously, after the bitter old man joined the banquet, more than half an hour had passed. Huan Yin felt that time passed faster than before, it seemed that he was really attracted by the bitter old man, and the concept of time had faded a lot.
But at this time, everyone also knew that the banquet was basically coming to an end. Even if the bitter old charm is great, Huan Yin also feels this way.
So Huan Yin also knew that it was up to him to say the end. After inviting everyone to raise a glass together, he smiled at Ku Lao and said that he would continue to ask for advice tomorrow, and he was ready to disperse.
But at this moment, the bitter old man suddenly stood up, went straight to the bottom of Huan Yin, and after bowing deeply to Huan Yin, he said: "My lord, the right person talked too much with the adult, and the old man actually forgot the business of coming here today, can you let the old man say a word again?"
Huan Yin said before that there must be something wrong with the bitter old man. It's just that he was deeply attracted to the bitter old man before, so he forgot about this verse. And Ku Lao naturally has always been sober, but he just saw that Huan had been asking himself for advice and couldn't bear to interrupt, so he didn't have a chance to bring up the matter. Now that the banquet is about to disperse, he has to say that he only stood up, let alone that he forgot, which shows his mind.
Huan Yin reacted at this time, and wanted people like Ku Lao to come here, and he was afraid that what he said was not small, so he said: "Ku Lao, please speak." ”
Ku Lao said: "Please also ask your lord to forge a sword for me in the eight heavens of the East, and Yongzhen Eight Cities!"
Huan Yin was stunned, and the rest of the people present were also stunned. Huan Yin quickly asked, "Ku Lao, what do you mean by this?"
Ku Lao knelt down directly in front of Huan Yin, and said very sincerely: "I heard that the Heavenly Realm was born in the wilderness, and at the beginning, fierce birds and beasts were rampant, and there were many ancestors who drank blood and killed a lot. At that time, the Heavenly Realm was very different from what it is today, and it was worthy of being the head of the Three Realms. ”
"It wasn't until about 1.8 million years ago that the previous emperor came out of nowhere and ruled the world with the teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and then ruled the world, that we have the peaceful heavenly realm that we see today. All the people of the six realms are thirsty to be favored by reincarnation and devote themselves to the heavens. ”
"The previous emperor once said: 'It is easy to level the world, but it is difficult to govern the world, and it is especially difficult to rule for a long time. And if you want to rule for a long time, you must first suppress evil!' In this way, there was the matter of 'Emperor Forging Sword', which we were all familiar with later. ”
"The emperor forged the sword with his own hands in order to suppress the evil and protect the heavenly realm forever. And with that divine sword, my heavenly realm will be stable for a long time. It's a pity that the divine sword was destroyed by the heavenly thunder later, and the emperor could no longer create the same divine sword, so there was a great change in the heavenly realm hundreds of years ago. ”
It can be seen that the words of the previous emperor were right, only by suppressing evil with a divine sword can we have peace for a long time. Now I have been in the East for eight days, and I have finally been reassured by adults. In this way, why don't you follow the example of your ancestors and forge a sword for me in the Eight Heavens of the East, so as to protect all the people?"
