Chapter 2199 Master-Disciple Transaction, Yang Gong’s Treasure House
Hou Xibai has a lot of vests, but the only ones that can be used forever are the amorous young master Hou Xibai and Zen Master Fahai of Dashi Temple. The other vest identities are thrown away after being used a few times.
Hou Xibai had a tired look on his face and smiling eyes, as if he was not aware of Shi Zhixuan's anger at all. His appearance was solemn and exuding warmth. His appearance was definitely that of an eminent monk, handsome and compassionate, he said softly.
"Why is Master Shi so angry? This disciple misses you and just came to see you. How about rejecting people thousands of miles away like this?"
It would be better if Hou Xibai didn't act so coquettishly. When he said this, Shi Zhixuan was immediately furious and sneered, with a sarcastic look on his face. His beautiful eyes were slightly narrowed, without the sentimental charm of his peach blossom eyes. They were all cold, and his face was full of coldness.
He was as gloomy as water and said in a mocking voice.
"Will you miss me?"
"It's better to think I'm dead!"
Shi Zhixuan did not think that Hou Xibai would be a filial disciple, nor could there be harmony and mutual care between master and disciple. He knew last time that if Hou Xibai did not kill his master, he would be worthy of his teachings.
Hou Xibai had an exaggerated sad expression on his face, as if he was aggrieved by Shi Zhixuan's misunderstanding. There was even a trace of moisture in his big eyes. He looked at Shi Zhixuan very affectionately. His eyes were more lingering than those of a couple. Shi Zhixuan suddenly shuddered, and his whole body
Goosebumps were rising, and with a disgusted look on his face, his body tilted back involuntarily, trying to distance himself from Hou Xibai.
"What exactly are you going to do?"
"If you have something to say, don't be so conceited!"
Hou Xibai put away the sadness and affection on his face and chuckled. Facing the insane Shi Zhixuan, he could only fight fire with fire. He was even more neurotic than him, so that he could talk about things calmly.
"I want to join forces with Master to support the Song clan in taking over the world!"
Shi Zhixuan's expression moved slightly, his eyes rolled twice, and he looked thoughtful. He did not speak, quietly waiting for Hou Xibai's next words.
"Buddhism and Taoism selected Li Shimin of the Li Clan to build momentum for him and want to support him to become the common leader of the world!"
Shi Zhixuan sneered. He disagreed with the practices of Buddhism and Taoism. How could it be so easy to succeed in the struggle for hegemony in the world? Buddhism and Taoism did not choose whoever was the master of the world. If so, wouldn't the emperor become the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism?
's puppet.
Even if the Li clan succeeded in taking over the world, Li Jiancheng would be the eldest son, and it would not be Li Shimin's turn to succeed Li Yuan.
Li Jiancheng was also a man of great talent, calm temperament, resourceful, broad-minded, courageous and promising. He was definitely not as bad as what was passed down in later generations.
If Li Jiancheng was really stupid and incompetent, how could he have forced Li Shimin into a desperate situation, burned everything, and launched the Xuanwumen Revolution? From this we can see how much pressure Li Jiancheng put on Li Shimin and how outstanding his talent was!
"Ning Daoqi appointed Li Shimin more than 20 years ago, saying that he has the talent to help the world and bring peace to the people, and that he is extremely valuable. It seems that he made up his mind at that time and chose the Li clan."
Hou Xibai didn't know about this, and he was thoughtful when he heard the words. It seemed that Yang Jian's suppression of Buddhism and Taoism had triggered a counterattack by Buddhism and Taoism. He had already made up his mind that he was unwilling to support the Sui Dynasty and wanted to start a new one.
"So I want to cooperate with Master Shi and flip the table together to prevent the wishful thinking of Buddhism and Taoism from coming true!"
Hou Xibai looked at Shi Zhixuan who was sneering and said straight to the point.
Shi Zhixuan looked at his disciple with interest, curious about his thoughts, and asked with some confusion.
"So you chose to support the Song clan?"
"What's in it for you?"
"Or to put it another way, why do you do this?"
Hou Xibai showed a bit of compassion and was extremely firm. He recalled the scene when he first met Shi Zhixuan and sighed with emotion.
"Master Shi, do you still remember the scene when we first met?"
Shi Zhixuan was stunned when he heard the words, and the scene when he first met Hou Xibai in the mass grave more than ten years ago appeared in his mind. He was obviously just a child, but he was unexpectedly premature and mature, giving people the illusion of an adult, with a strong will.
Calm and calm, it was precisely because of these that Shi Zhixuan was impressed at that time and accepted him as his disciple.
"Of course I remember!"
There was some emotion on Shi Zhixuan's face. No matter what the relationship between their master and disciple was now, Shi Zhixuan did not regret taking Hou Xibai under his sect. Except for the fact that the relationship between master and disciple was not harmonious, Hou Xibai was definitely a perfect disciple, intelligent, wise and savvy.
The talent is the best choice, and the strength and cultivation are even better than others. It is definitely the best choice to inherit the Taoism.
Moreover, Shi Zhixuan doesn't care much about the relationship between master and disciple. The Demon Sect engages in intrigues, masters and disciples turn against each other, and there are many who fight each other. Apart from being a little rebellious, Hou Xibai has nothing disadvantageous about Shi Zhixuan. He is already the best among the Demon Sect.
He is different and can be regarded as a good and filial disciple.
"Does Master Shi still remember the meaning of my name?"
"May the world be bright and everything be white!"
"This is my ambition and my pursuit!"
Hou Xibai spoke righteously, his expression was solemn, his face no longer careless, he was extremely serious, his eyes were staring at Shi Zhixuan tightly, showing sincerity. This was the most sincere thought deep in his heart, and when he spoke it, it showed
The power of trust is particularly contagious.
Shi Zhixuan sighed. It was because Hou Xibai said this that he found him interesting. Unexpectedly, more than ten years later, Hou Xibai still did not forget his original intention and was firm in his original aspirations. This was actually very similar to Shi Zhixuan.
In fact, Shi Zhixuan also had great ambitions. He wanted to show his ambition, so he transformed into Pei Ju, hung out in the court, displayed his talents, and used the art of vertical and horizontal to the extreme. He helped Yang Guang split the Turks and let
It turned into two major Turks, the East and the West, fighting each other endlessly, which made the grassland unable to invade the Central Plains southward.
However, Shi Zhixuan really didn't expect that Yang Guang's grandson was ineffective and eager for quick success. He wanted to accomplish the work of three generations in one generation, causing chaos in the world, losing the world, and making all his hard work go to waste.
"Your world is bright and clear, and everything is white. Is this the world of the Han people?"
Shi Zhixuan already understood what Hou Xibai meant. Hou Xibai was disappointed because the Li clan, with the help of Turkic power, was not tough enough on the barbarians, and chose the Song clan, which had the coldest attitude towards the barbarians. What does this mean? Hou Xibai is also a nationalist.
He adheres to the orthodox bloodline of the Han people, coincides with Song Que, and is a natural ally.
"It is true that the Han people rule the world!"
Hou Xibai did not deny this. He could allow the Hu people to integrate into the Central Plains, but he would never allow the Hu people in the grassland to once again sit on the heads of the Han people and dominate the Han people, humiliating the people of the Central Plains at will.
"What does the world of the Han people have to do with me?"
"Why should I cooperate with you to support the Song clan?"
Shi Zhixuan asked bluntly, the Demon Sect does not pay attention to those righteous principles, it only talks about interests, and only interests are the basis for cooperation.
Hou Xibai looked at Shi Zhixuan who was disapproving, and smiled slightly. His clear eyes showed wisdom and determination, and his eyes were bright. He was very confident that he could convince Shi Zhixuan.
"The world of the Han people can accommodate hundreds of schools of thought. They no longer only respect Confucianism and treat everyone equally. I don't know this. What does Master Shi think?"
Hou Xibai was calm and relaxed, his body was extremely relaxed, and he was extremely confident.
Since Dong Zhongshu of the Western Han Dynasty proposed to abolish all schools of thought and only respect Confucianism, the schools of thought have withered away and have no room for survival. They have integrated into the magic sect one after another. Although Shi Zhixuan is ruthless, cold and vicious, he is also deeply affected by the magic sect.
ideological influence
, wholeheartedly wants to restore the hundreds of schools of thought and let the Demon Sect live in the sunshine openly. From this point of view, Shi Zhixuan is also an idealist, with his own sense of mission and pursuit, and his responsibility is far better than that of Zhu Yuyan and other Demon Sect masters.
.
Shi Zhixuan's pupils were constricted and as thin as needle points. He never thought that Hou Xibai could actually know his ambition, and he felt like a confidant in his heart. This did not mean that Shi Zhixuan had a great impression of Hou Xibai, but it was just an instinctive reaction to be understood and recognized by others.
Shi Zhixuan exhaled a breath of turbid air, calmed down the agitation in his heart, his eyes sparkled, and he said seriously.
"This is just your family's opinion. Song Que may not agree with it!"
When Hou Xibai heard this, he knew that Shi Zhixuan was interested. This was an ideal that Shi Zhixuan had been pursuing all his life. Now that he was over fifty, there were still many years left to complete this ambition, so he was unwilling to let this opportunity go.
"Song Que is not a Confucian disciple, he is a master of military art!"
"The Confucians are the ones who suppress military strategists the most, and they will definitely not oppose this!"
Since ancient times, military generals have been the focus of Confucian suppression. They advocated all day long for a peaceful world where horses should be released to Nanshan and swords and guns should be stored in storage. They also encouraged kings to cross rivers and tear down bridges, unload mills and kill donkeys, causing the heirs of military strategists to suffer miserably.
Song Que was both a martial artist and a general, and he definitely didn't have much favorable impressions of Confucian scholars. If a hundred schools of thought came out that could check and balance Confucianism, he would definitely go along with the trend and accept it happily.
Shi Zhixuan's expression moved slightly. It was indeed true. Song Que was indeed a military commander and a warrior. He was what Confucian scholars call a brave warrior. There is indeed room for cooperation among vulgar people.
"Even so, how can you be sure that the Song clan can defeat the Li clan and become the master of the world!"
Shi Zhixuan is not someone who easily bets. He needs to weigh the pros and cons, compare options, and see the possibility of the Song clan succeeding.
"The Song Dynasty is regarded as the orthodoxy of the Han people and is known to the whole world. This is a great thing!"
"Song Que is a perfect person. He is one of the best in the world in terms of literary skills, military skills, and courage!"
"Song Que and Master Shi are both peerless masters in the world today. Even the great master Ning Daoqi can't beat you!"
"With me, even if Buddhism and Taoism join forces, we are not afraid!"
"The three of us join forces, even if the three great masters gather together, we are still capable of fighting. Who in the world can stop us?"
At the end of the speech, Hou Xibai looked unruly, looking down at the world, looking down on all living beings, revealing his truest self, extremely confident, domineering and arrogant. This is his true face. He, Shi Zhixuan, and Song Que are all the same people, although on the outside
The images they present are different, but deep down they are both extremely conceited people.
Shi Zhixuan's conceit is to challenge the majesty of Buddhism and Taoism alone without any fear. Even when he is surrounded and hunted by the great master Ning Daoqi and the four great Buddhist monks, he is still alive and kicking, stirring up wind and rain and giving headaches to Buddhism and Taoism.
No matter what, I had no choice but to compromise.
Song Que's pride was his insistence on Han orthodoxy and his disdain for the Buddhist barbarians. Even if the Han orthodoxy was weak and struggling, he would still carry the banner of Han orthodoxy, never compromise, and stand alone against this era of barbarians.
, vowed to establish the Han Dynasty.
Hou Xibai's conceit is the combination of their ideals and ambitions. They want to completely smash this era when beards are immortal and the Han people are not prosperous, but also to establish an open and prosperous era where a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend.
