The girl was angry and funny, so she hit him lightly and said: "Although Confucianism and Taoism are in decline, but just based on the four sentences you just said, we can deduce that there were powerful people in Confucianism and Taoism at the time.):

I read a novel and heard my master say that the cultivation of Confucianism and Taoism is different from that of other branches. If one can realize the Tao once and gather the awe-inspiring aura, there is still hope of attaining the Tao, which has a great relationship with one's character of mind."

"What kind of xinxing?" The man raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyebrows were dark and thick.

"I don't know either." The girl shook her head, "If I knew, I might be able to inherit the mantle of Confucianism and Taoism. I only heard the master say that the reason why Confucianism and Taoism is in decline now is because there are no longer many people who are worthy of it.

Very few people with a saintly mind can even have a mind like the four sentences you just recited. Those people now are just picky people who say they can’t do anything. Ah, I’m sorry, I can’t

Not talking about your father."

The man smiled, waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, he can't hear it now anyway, and my father isn't the trash you call me, right?"

The girl covered her mouth and smiled, her wonderful eyes made the man stunned for a moment, "To be honest, although your father is very pedantic, he is still a kind-hearted person. If he can be more flexible, maybe you just now

Reading those four sentences seems to suit him a bit."

The man laughed when he heard this: "It's a pity that my father hated Taoism the most in his life, and he will never practice Taoism like you. And I have heard of a strange thing. Once he was drunk, and he said to me

, what he is most proud of in his life is not being appreciated by Mr. Yang, but marrying a woman who would not even give up his eternal life for him."

The man was full of pride when he said this, because the two people he mentioned were his parents, but the girl could hear something fishy in it, "Immortality? Did someone come to transform your mother and want to introduce her to her to practice Taoism?"

The girl is indeed a little strange, because she secretly met the mother of the man in front of her once from a distance. She is a very gentle woman, but other than that, there seems to be nothing special about her, and she has no qualifications for monasticism.

Not as good as a male father.

"I don't know either. I asked about it later, but they refused to say anything more. They just said that I heard wrongly." The man took the girl's hands and said, "Zhixian, I'm here to say goodbye to you."

The girl couldn't help being shocked, looked up at the man and said, "Farewell, you, where are you going?"

"My father has won the position of magistrate of Lingzhou, and he will go to take up his position in the near future. Naturally, our family must accompany him," the man said softly.

"Lingzhou?" The girl was slightly startled, and her eyes couldn't help but look to the northwest. Lingzhou was in the west of the Dachu territory, close to the Western Regions.

Ailang's father was originally a scholar, but he was occasionally appreciated by nobles and was given the lowest position of bookkeeper. He was upright and somewhat pedantic.

After so many years of hard work, from the chief clerk to the county magistrate, and then to the county magistrate.

Now, coupled with the recommendation of the old man who promoted him in the first place, he finally became the governor of a state, but the place he wanted to go was indeed a bit remote.

But the man knew that his father was extremely happy, thinking that he could finally show what he had learned and do something for the people.

Although Yunjing is good, a mere county magistrate is nothing, and it is subject to too many restrictions.

"Swiss franc, then we..."

"Zhixian, don't worry. I will go to Beijing to take part in the imperial examination in at most two or three years after I leave. As long as I get a good name in the exam, I can return to Yunjing. Then we can be together."

"Swiss Lang, why don't you take part in the imperial examination and go back with me, and I'll ask my mentor to take you under his disciples and practice together. When you succeed in practice, you can be with me for a long time, and your life span will be far beyond that."

Extraordinary." The girl slowly leaned her head on the man's shoulder.

In terms of the strength of the two of them, even dozens or hundreds of men would not be able to match her, but that was the nature of women.

The man looked troubled. He had been influenced by his father since he was a child. Although he could not hate the monks like his father, his ideals in life were exactly the same as the four sentences he had just read.

But the girl in front of him happened to be the woman he loved, and she was also a female monk, the type that his father hated most in his life.

The man hesitated and almost wanted to say to her, "Why don't you come with me?", but then he thought about the consequences if his father found out.

The man's plan was to tell his mother first after he passed the examination and then his mother would persuade his father to accept the girl in front of him.

But right now, he doesn't have the ability to stand on his own.

As for the cultivation that the woman said, the man was also slightly tempted. He heard that monks could practice to the extreme and become immortal and fly with swords.

However, he has been influenced by his father since he was a child. From a young age, his father regarded the monks as evil people. Although they have powers that ordinary people do not have, they only pursue selfish interests and ignore justice.

Thinking that he had read poetry and books for twenty years, and suddenly had to abandon his ideals since he was a child, and become a person that his father hated deeply, the man asked himself that he still did not have the courage.

What's more, even from the previous conversations of the lover in front of me, we can know something. Cultivation does not mean that it will be smooth sailing or that it is destined to live forever.

First of all, cultivation requires a lot of resources, just like ordinary people cannot avoid oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.

The world of monks is also full of struggles, because resources are always limited, but the greed of people is infinite.

Finally, even if there are sufficient resources and you have the upper hand in the battle, it does not mean that you will definitely achieve enlightenment. People who die in the middle are like loaches crossing the river.

After attaining the Tao, monks will also have their fate.

The man was somewhat pleased with this, as it proved that monks with magical powers could not do whatever they wanted.

The man said apologetically: "Zhixian, I have been studying since I was a child, and I have to take the imperial examination before I am willing to accept it. If I really fail the examination, can I follow you to practice Taoism?"

The girl's eyes darkened when she first heard his rejection. Then she cheered up a little when she heard his words of reparation. She laughed softly and said, "Aren't you afraid of your father's wrath if you really follow me to practice Taoism?"

The man smiled and said, "He only has a son like me after all."

The two hugged each other for a while and whispered to each other. Then the man gently let go of the girl, untied the white horse's reins, and got on the horse's back.

He took one last deep look at the girl, then whipped away, leaving a cloud of dust behind him.

The girl gently clenched her fists, bit her lower teeth lightly, and suddenly made a decision.

"Hey, why hasn't Rui'er come back yet?"

It was getting late outside, but Kong You couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw that his beloved son hadn't come back yet.

Fortunately, my husband is in a good mood these days, because he will leave Beijing for a new post soon. Otherwise, with his old-fashioned temperament, if he hears that Wang Rui has not returned from his trip, he will inevitably lose his temper again.

That year I met Yang Renwu again in Beijing, just when Yang Renwu was in decline. Although Kong You's family was nothing at all, they were always easy to remember when people were down and out.

After Yang Renwu was re-employed, he took Wang Qinian with him.

Wang Qinian had the opportunity to enter an official career. Later, he won the imperial examination and became the chief registrar of a county under the jurisdiction of Yunjing.

Wang Rui was born, and Wang Qinian was even more lucky. He was obviously a pedantic man, so it was a lucky thing that he didn't get into trouble in this official career. However, he was still able to rise up until he became the magistrate of a county. This time, he became the magistrate of a county.

Become the magistrate of Lingzhou and take charge of the government.

As the situation changed, the life of Kong You's family naturally improved.

Although Wang Qinian was an old-fashioned man, he only had one wife in his life, Kong You, and he did not take concubines. They only had one son, Wang Rui.

With life passing like this, seeing her husband happy and her son gradually growing up and turning into a handsome young man, Kong You felt satisfied. The only thing he still cared about in his heart was his missing brother.

Since Kong Zhang last came to see her more than ten years ago, there has been no news and no one knows what happened to him.

Kong You could only keep this worry in her heart, and it was inconvenient to mention it even in front of Wang Qinian, because she knew that her husband hated the Taoist monks the most in his life, calling them moths and locusts, and scolded them for controlling the world and oppressing them.

Be kind, be polite when insulting, and accept the world as your own.

Therefore, he was also very dissatisfied with his brother-in-law, Wang Qinian. If the two of them had not taken Kong You into account during their several meetings, they would have been in conflict with each other.

Therefore, Wang Qinian never mentioned that he had such a wife at home or outside. Otherwise, if people knew about it, they would not know how they would be treated.

Kong You turned his gaze away from the window and suddenly felt that there was something different in the room, as if there was something more than before.

She trembled and slowly turned her head, and sure enough she saw a man in green standing quietly in a corner of the room, looking at her with a smile.

Almost unable to believe his eyes, Kong You bit his tongue quietly. The person he had been worried about appeared in front of him so mysteriously.

"God shows mercy, you, you still remember sister." Kong You couldn't help but his eyes heated up.

Kong Zhang walked over slowly and smiled slightly: "Didn't I come to see you?"

There were tears in Kong You's eyes, but a smile broke out.

The two had not seen each other for more than ten years. Kong Zhang remained the same as before due to his success in cultivating Taoism, but Kong You had unknowingly changed from the soft and beautiful woman to a middle-aged beautiful woman.

When the siblings met again, Kong You was nagging, wishing to know where Kong Zhang had been in the past ten years.

Of course, Kong Zhang would not tell Kong You all about his true experience. He only said that he had obtained the sect's mission, had been away for many years, and then practiced in the South China Sea. He recently returned to the sect and came to visit.

"But it's been more than ten years since you left." Kong You said resentfully.

Kong Zhang nodded slightly and comforted Kong You.

Although the two were born from the same mother, now they are in different situations and on completely different trajectories.

Although he has not cut off the secular ties like the evil evil sect, but he has cultivated to the point where Kong Zhang is now, unless his bloodline has a direct impact on the power of inheritance, he may not necessarily take it seriously.

Regardless of bloodline or sect inheritance, it is actually just a bond between monks.

Even in a cultivating family, blood is not the only thing that depends on consciousness.

Not all monks after attaining Taoism will bring in kinship bonds, especially those from sects. After a hundred years, the longer the time between them, the weaker the relationship formed by blood will be.

Especially for people like Kong Zhang, although Kong You is the person he really cares about, this is no longer due to blood connection and being born from the same mother.

The demonic quality has evolved to this point. When it comes to bloodline, Kong Zhang already doesn't know whether he should be considered a human or a demon.
