"Uncle, what you said is a bit taboo." Xiang Chen was a little surprised by what the old man said.
The old man in gray said with a smile: "Isn't this the truth you like to hear?"
The old man in gray clothes stood up and walked slowly to the yard. Xiang Chen looked at his back, hesitated for a moment and followed behind to the yard.
The old man saw a chessboard on the stone table and asked, "Do you know how to play chess?"
Xiang Chen nodded, and the two of them came to sit down in front of the chessboard.
"You are the senior, you go first."
"The little thing still knows how to respect the old and love the young." The old man was not polite, picked up a black chess piece and dropped it on the Tianyuan position, which was the center of the chessboard.
Xiang Chen followed and landed next to him. The old man said lightly: "What do you think is the meaning of the existence of an organization like Taikoo Holy Courtyard?"
"Are you talking about today, or the meaning of its own existence?" Xiang Chen asked back.
"Let's talk about today." The old man fell down again.
Xiang Chen looked at the opponent's chess moves, thought for a moment, dropped the white piece and said, "Serve the temple and train talents in all aspects for the Witch God Dynasty."
The old man said calmly: "I don't mind if you just say that you are training lackeys for them."
Xiang Chen chuckled and didn't answer the question.
"Then what do you think is the purpose of the existence of Taigu Holy Courtyard?"
Xiang Chen said without even thinking: "Establish a mind for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for life, inherit the unique knowledge of the past saints, create peace for all the worlds beyond, enlighten the ignorant people, and establish virtue for the wilderness."
The old man sneered: "It's not a small tone, but the original purpose of the Taigu Holy Courtyard was indeed the same. However, times have changed and the Holy Court remains the same, so there is no way to stand in this era."
Xiang Chen said indifferently: "But if he abandons what he originally insisted on just to stand in a certain era, in fact, even if it exists, it is only in name only and has lost its soul."
The old man said lightly: "Sometimes living is more difficult than dying. Living has to face countless choices. Some of the choices will inevitably conflict with one's own ideals. If you want to live and live with integrity and stick to your heart, it is better than death.
More difficult things."
Xiang Chen frowned and said: "But there are many choices in death. Some people die as heavy as a mountain, and some people die as light as a feather. If you really want to stick to what you have in your heart, you don't necessarily have to be the same on the outside. Even if the common people despise it, so what? You know
I know what I do, and those who don’t know me will not be confused.”
The old man in gray laughed loudly, dropped one, and immediately killed and devoured Xiang Chen's five sons and said: "As expected of a man with a clear mind and a clear heart, who has realized his true self. That's right."
"The uncle asked me a question, and I also asked the uncle a question, what is the purpose of the existence of Taigu Holy Courtyard?" Xiang Chen suddenly asked the other party.
The old man in gray clothes looked at Xiang Chen's whereabouts with a thoughtful look on his face, but he said: "Continue to move forward!"
Xiang Chen didn't ask any more questions after hearing this.
The two of them were silent and were playing chess seriously. Gradually, the entire chessboard was almost filled by the two of them.
When Xiang Chen saw that his flag box was empty, but the old man still had a chess piece, he sighed: "My seniors are very skilled in chess, and this junior should be ashamed of himself."
The old man dropped the black man, clapped his hands and said, "Your pattern is complete, but the details are insufficient. However, at your age, there are only a handful of people who can reach this level."
The old man in gray clothes stood up and said: "There is no distinction between religion and distinction in the Taigu Holy Court. It is fair and unfair. Everything in the world has always had two sides. Where there are blacks, there are whites. Where there is birth, there is death. Where there is yin, there is yang. The way of reincarnation.
The same is true.
The little guy is good at chess, but you have to understand that if you lose one piece, you lose everything. No matter how good you played before, I will come to you to learn chess skills when I get bored."
After the old man in gray clothes finished speaking, he disappeared.
Xiang Chen watched the other party leave, but there was a stream of cold sweat on his vest. The old man was talking about more than just chess skills.
However, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. There was no danger to his life anymore, and his eyes showed deep thoughts and doubts.
Xiang Chen's eyes fell on the chess game just now, and he fell into deep thought.
He looked at the chess game. In his eyes, the chess game gradually turned into Yin and Yang Tai Chi, entangled with each other, and seemed to become a cycle of life and death, interconnected.
And the black chess pieces that the old man dropped seemed to be not chess pieces, but evolved into divine patterns. Every move was darkly in harmony with heaven and earth, corresponding to the nature of heaven.
When he looked at the chess he was playing, he was shocked to find that the white pieces seemed to have turned into divine patterns, blending with the black chess patterns. Each placement point actually corresponded to the world corresponding to the black pieces.
Xiang Chen couldn't help but feel extremely shocked. His moves were being controlled by the old man. Wherever he wanted to land and where he landed passively, his sunspots were all leading him.
And this game of chess also evolved into yin and yang and reincarnation in his mind.
Xiang Chen couldn't help but practice his own Purgatory Reincarnation Technique, and instantly caught a lot of things in his heart. The wonderful feeling could only be felt, but hard to describe, and the power of the Law of Reincarnation was also surging towards him in the world.
His consciousness merged with heaven and earth, and merged with Taoism. In his mind, he saw a huge world of reincarnation, and he also saw all living beings.
His consciousness even drifted to the city of origin. He saw a mother beast giving birth to a cub in pain. He also saw an old beast being eaten alive bit by bit by a natural enemy. Between life and death, he saw
There is a rule of heaven and earth implicating these.
He also felt the power of heaven and earth.
The old man who had returned to his residence couldn't help but nodded when he saw this scene, and said: "This understanding is indeed world-class, and it can be understood at a glance, but this little guy is indeed too courageous. He dares to come here to seek enlightenment.
That he thinks his support is enough?"
The old man in gray clothes didn't pay attention to Xiang Chen, but lay down on the rocking chair and fell asleep.
Within Xiang Chen's body, the hell of reincarnation is undergoing tremendous changes.
To talk about changes, the spatial scope of the reincarnation hell is slowly expanding, and the power of reincarnation contained in it is also rapidly becoming stronger.
From the origin of Xiang Chen's reincarnation, something above the original law was born.
Taoism!
The original laws of reincarnation are sublimating, evolving from the small reincarnation of the self to the great reincarnation of heaven and earth.
And when he realized this, he had no sense of the passage of time. Decades passed in the blink of an eye. He almost turned into a clay sculpture while standing in the yard, and birds built nests in his hair.
Hundreds of years passed in the blink of an eye, and Xiang Chen's thoughts were projected into reincarnation. Sometimes he was reincarnated into the body of a tigress and became a little tiger, and sometimes he became a hyena.
