Chapter 202: Having raised a demon in my heart, I am no longer a human being(1/3)
Chapter 202: I have a big demon in my heart, and I am no longer a human being
Lu Jing had naturally heard of Pingping Township. As early as the last time he was imprisoned in Jingyin Mansion, the identity of the tutu before him had already been revealed.
He had also heard rumors that abandoned disciples of the Great Leiyin Temple used Zen sticks to carve out a boundary on the original Fufeng land and built a country within a country.
Over the years, Ping Ping Township has been moving around, and I don’t know what it is planning. Many heroes from all over the world have entered Ping Ping Township and have since become kings and generals among them.
When Anhuai Kingdom fell, Pingping Township also went to recruit Zhong Yubai, but at that time Anhuai knew that he would kill his father with his hands. He was disheartened and knew that entering Pingping Township would inevitably lead to many disputes, so he came.
Tai Xuan Jing.
When Zhong Yubai came to Dafu, there was the King of Pingpingxiang in the clouds personally bidding him farewell.
What Lu Jing didn't expect was that he was no longer a prisoner of his subordinates, but a law enforcer. Although he had no official status, his soul in the palace was surrounded by the thunder of law.
The Tutu from Pingping Township came to see him, needless to say, for the purpose of recruiting him, just like those in prison.
Lu Jing remained calm and asked, "Don't you know your name?"
The Toutuo grinned and said, "I am a monk and have given up my name a long time ago. Mr. Lu Jing just calls me Qingshan Toutuo."
"Qingshan Tutuo?" Lu Guang nodded and asked: "Since Tutuos are monks, they all say that the five aggregates are empty. This Pingping Township is neither a temple nor a place for meditation. Tutuos even run around because of this. This
This makes Lu Jing a little strange."
Qingshan Toutuo heard Lu Jing's inquiry, looked into Lu Jing's eyes and said: "Sir, monks see that the five aggregates are empty. They think that although form, feeling, thought, action and consciousness exist, they are changing and will eventually disappear.
However, this does not mean that monks have no desires."
A strange look flashed in Lu Jing's eyes, and he nodded: "That's true. If you have no desire, why would you worship Buddha?"
A smile appeared on Qingshan Tutu's skinny face, and he said: "There is a saying in the Avatamsaka Sutra that the Buddha said that all living beings are equal, and that all living beings on the earth have the wisdom and virtue of the Tathagata, which is no different from the Buddha, but they cannot achieve it because of delusional thinking.
It’s just that what Zen practitioners seek is not in the reality of this life, but in the blessings in the next life, or in the eternal bliss.”
Lu Jing listened quietly, and Qingshan Toutuo continued: "In this mortal world, the top people in the world are extravagant and have great power. Food rots in the warehouses, and the gold and silver is unknown.
However, ordinary people in the world are subject to all kinds of oppression. The world is vast, and the people in the government and the public in various countries cannot see, or are unwilling to see, the darkness under every inch of the country. They ignore that there are corrupt officials in the world who oppress the people.
There are still demons causing trouble, coupled with successive years of disasters, many countries and the people in many places are no longer able to survive.
The reason why monks like me want to travel around the world and be born in Pingping Township is to accumulate merit for myself and to get back what they deserve for the people of the world.
With this merit, we will not have to become lonely ghosts after death, but will be able to be reborn in bliss, or perhaps become a monk sitting on the Buddha's throne."
Qingshan Toutuo said this, he tore off another large piece of chicken, took a few bites, and said: "Mr. Lu Jing, the reason why I came to you is because you punished the prince of Qi, because you killed
That Xu Baiyan.
Since you have a heart for the people in your heart, your ideals should be the same as mine!"
Lu Jing lowered his hands with a questioning look in his eyes: "I wonder what the philosophy of Ping Ping Township is?"
Qingshan Toutuo's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Our concept of equality is that people have no private property, they have fields to cultivate together, they have clothes to wear together, and they have money to work together, everyone in the world can practice!
Sir, this is the program of Pingping Township established by General Butian. The people of the world have suffered for too long. Even now, the vast majority of them cannot live past the age of forty-five. The world is unfair, so the only way is to rely on Pingping Township.
Two heavenly kings, twelve generals, plus General Bu Tian, who has the ambition to save the world, ignited a fire of equality."
"The fire of equality?" Lu Jing frowned after listening to Qingshan Toutuo's words.
It is a good sign that a group of dragons has no leader and everyone is like a dragon.
But how easy is it to really ignite the fire of equality in the world?
Everyone has selfish desires. If there are no selfish desires, people will not be human. If they have selfish desires, how can the world be equal?
From another perspective, although it is difficult to ignite the fire of equality, it is actually possible, but how to maintain it after that?
In this process, I am afraid that lives will be devastated. Who will suffer then?
Lu Jing pondered in his heart. If he was just a young man, if he was a member of this era, he might not think too much.
But... he still has memories from the past, and there are similar times in those memories, and many experiences lie here.
Qingshan Toutuo watched Lu Jing's expression. When he saw Lu Jing was deep in thought, he poured another glass of wine for Lu Jing.
"I know that Mr. Sir is passionate, otherwise I would not be able to understand Mr. Fourth's human sword spirit. Mr. Four could not understand the world. At that time, he was still holding a sword in the library. He had killed dignitaries in the Protectorate, and he had also gone to court with his sword and questioned Yu.
People... even attracted the water of Parrot Island to bear the disaster on the middle of the river that should have come long ago.
But he died after all, and now Mr. Lu Jing has become the successor of Mr. Fourth. In fact, we in Pingping Township also want to know how Mr. Lu views the world in his heart, and how he views my philosophy of General Mending the Sky?"
Qingshan Toutuo looked directly at Lu Jing, hoping to get the answer from Lu Jing's mouth.
Lu Jing took a sip of wine and said, "How can there be pure equality in this world? If you look too far ahead, you will inevitably go off the road halfway.
Instead of doing this, we might as well set a closer goal first.”
After Lu Jing finished speaking, he lowered his head and looked at the Wind-Calling Sword and Rain-Calling Sword on his waist.
The power of heaven and earth is hidden in the two treasures of calling wind and rain.
Today's cultivation is definitely not weak, but he is unable to change the world, but... Lu Jing is still young!
He always remembered the desolate place where he had stepped onto Su Houcang's chariot from Dazhu Kingdom.
He saw the bones in it and the desolation in it.
It was once the homeland of countless people, but now it is deserted, and disasters are still spreading.
"Let's cultivate ourselves first. If we have enough strength, we can try to level the world. Now I have all the power to control the world. I only need to control the power of heaven and earth to truly control the wind and rain. When the time comes, I can do things within my power."
Lu Jing thought in his mind.
Qingshan Toutuo obviously disagreed with Lu Jing's words. He had great trust in the tall general who seemed to have the world in his eyes.
With the general here, Pingping Township...will not go astray.
But he did not refute Lu Jing, but instead asked with a smile: "Sir, after what he said to me today, Toutuo also understood the goal that he had in mind and was within his ability to achieve.
But I heard that your husband is only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he has a kind and compassionate heart. For someone who grew up in Taixuan Jing, this makes me quite curious."
Lu Jing did not hide anything, and said calmly: "Since I have come to this world once, I have seen some different situations. It just happens that it is within my ability and I can do it, so there is no harm in doing it."
Toutuo didn't know what Lu Jing saw, but he didn't ask any more questions.
"Actually, sir, we have some connection with Pingping Township. I came to see you today just to convey to you the concept of Pingping Township. Sir, you might as well take a look at what is buried under the prosperity of Taixuanjing.
When one day you completely see through it, or one day you have enough strength to escape the countless pairs of eyes looking at you, step out of Taixuanjing, and see the chaotic world, maybe my husband and I can become colleagues."
Lu Jing's eyes clearly flashed with a hint of heartbeat, not because he was in Pingping Township, but because he was about to leave Taixuanjing and see what's going on in the world.
Although Lu Jing has always been in a prosperous place these days, Lu Jing has also seen the corner hidden under the prosperity.
——Qing Yue came to Beijing to escape famine, and her mother was dying and had no money for medical treatment, so Qing Yue entered the Lu Mansion.
In the past, those children in the charity hall, the best outcome of these children was that they were selected by the Huai Gang and fled from then on. The worst outcome was that their minds were poisoned and they became puppet slaves without their own thoughts. The worst outcome was that they were mutilated beggars.
, the scapegoat who died.
Because of the two horses, Wei Jingzhe would have been killed if not for Lu Jing.
There were also Xu Wugui’s parents who died on the way to escape, and the woman who froze to death and starved to death behind a tree in the alley!
There are also those girls who most likely died in Hengshan Mansion.
…
Taixuanjing itself is full of ordinary people. Lu Jing has stepped up the ladder of status to become stronger, but this does not mean that his sword-supporting energy comes from fantasy.
However, the world is vast, and Lu Jing still doesn't want to spend his whole life in Taixuan Capital.
"When I break through the realm of Zhaoxing, I can go all the way north to see the three states of Chong'an. I can also see the mortal world to hone my mind and practice. I can also visit the princess and Qixiang."
"Besides... there are many heroes there. It would be even better if we could meet the world's martial arts leader."
Lu Jing was greatly moved, but he immediately reacted and asked, "Toutuo, I wonder what my connection is with Pingping Township?"
Qingshan Toutuo had already stood up and saluted Lu Jing with his palms together. He showed a smile on his face and did not answer Lu Jing's words. Instead, he said: "If a monk's money is used to drink alcohol and eat meat, he will inevitably be guilty.
.
Mr. Lu Jing, Toutuo has made a favor with you, this meal of wine and meat..."
Lu Jing was stunned for a moment, but Qingshan Toutuo had already walked out of the door.
"The world is in chaos, and monks are also quite weird. For example, the Buddhist disciple of Landa Temple who does not take the precept to kill, and the tutu in front of me who can drink alcohol and eat meat, but cannot pay for it himself."
Lu Jing didn't care, he just smiled at the Toutuo's back and said, "As a monk, how can there be any reason to turn to wine and meat?
I'll treat you to this feast of wine and meat, just as a favor to you."
Qingshan Toutuo was walking very fast, but when he heard Lu Jing's words, he stopped in his tracks. He stood there as if hesitating. After a few breaths, he left.
——
The waning moon of spring was exceptionally bright, and the moonlight filled the courtyard of the East Palace.
The microwave in the pool reflects the bright moonlight.
Under the moonlight, next to the pool, there was a table. A light was lit in front of the table, and a woman was reading with her head down.
There is no shortage of luminous pearls in the East Palace, but this woman only lights ordinary lights.
