After Meng Xiuyuan finished speaking, there was silence in the restaurant hall for a long time.
Li Shimin and Li Jing both looked at Meng Xiuyuan with burning eyes, as if they were getting to know Mr. Meng again.
They never thought that anyone in the world would say such words.
After all, no one would choose to go against the two giants of martial arts, Buddhism and Demonism, at the same time.
"Mr. Meng, Li Jing really admires your words for the country and the people.
It's just that I am short-sighted and rude to ask a question.
I wonder, Master, if you are really sure?
You know, it is a matter of life and death and the continuation of the orthodoxy. If these two parties learn that Mr. Meng has such an idea of digging up their base, they will definitely do their best to deal with him..."
Li Jing was silent for a long time, and then he couldn't help but ask.
Although he had seen Meng Xiuyuan's abilities with his own eyes and knew that this man was a rare master in this world, he also had a better understanding of the two terrifying forces behind Cihang Jingzhai and the Demon Sect.
Meng Xiuyuan knew that with the characters of Li Shimin and Li Jingzhi, they must still be thinking carefully in their hearts at this time, and would carefully observe and analyze their every word and deed to make a final decision.
Therefore, he did not deliberately be modest, but said frankly and frankly:
"Compared with the conspiracy, conspiracy, and manipulation, I am far inferior to the Demon Sect and Cihang Jingzhai.
But if it’s a battle between rivers and lakes, with fists, feet, and swords speaking, I think I won’t lose.”
Meng Xiuyuan's two words were not loud, but they reached the ears of Li Jing and Li Shimin, but they were like thunder, causing their expressions to change involuntarily.
They all knew that Meng Xiuyuan was by no means an arrogant and boastful person.
Li Shimin looked at Meng Xiuyuan, his eyes filled with brilliance, and he stopped talking several times. After a long while, he suddenly stood up with the wine glass in his hand, and saluted Meng Xiuyuan solemnly:
"Brother Meng, please allow me to toast you."
Meng Xiuyuan smiled slightly at the sight, bowed to Li Shimin in return, and then drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
…
Meng Xiuyuan, Li Jing, and Li Shimin drank in Dong's restaurant until late at night. The three of them had a good time and said goodbye to each other.
Under Li Shimin's arrangement, Meng Xiuyuan checked into a nearby inn in Luoyang City and had a peaceful night.
Early the next morning, Meng Xiuyuan was in a hurry to go out, but before he could get out of the door, he involuntarily stopped.
"Mr. Meng, Fei Xuan has taken the liberty of visiting. I wonder if I can come in and have a chat with you."
Shi Feixuan's soft voice came from outside the door, peaceful and calm, as if she had completely forgotten the previous conflict between the two.
"Since Miss Master has already found this place, there is no need to ask again.
I don’t have the habit of chatting with people through the door. Girl, please come in.”
Meng Xiuyuan answered softly.
Immediately, a soft "squeaking" sound was heard, the door of the inn was pushed open, and Shifei Xuan walked in slowly.
Just like the last time we met at Jing Nian Zen, Master Feixuan was still wearing a light blue scholar's long shirt and dressed in men's clothing. The only difference was that there was an elegant ancient sword on her back.
"It seems that Miss Master is here to have a discussion with me..."
Meng Xiuyuan glanced at the long sword behind Shi Fei Xuan. Instead of being angry, his face was even more joyful. He had long wanted to see how the "Cihang Sword Code", one of the four great wonders, would cultivate students.
What kind of peerless swordsman.
Unexpectedly, when Master Fei Xuan heard this, she immediately shook her head and said softly to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Please don't misunderstand Mr. Meng. After Concubine Xuan left the house, she never made a move with anyone, let alone swords against a righteous man like Mr. Meng.
It's just that Luoyang City is now full of traces of people from the Demon Sect, and Feixuan has to be on guard..."
After saying this, Shi Feixuan looked deeply at Meng Xiuyuan, her voice was slightly lamenting, which was slightly different from her usual business-like demeanor:
"Young Master Meng doesn't need to be so guarded against Feixuan. I came here just to have a chat with you.
If you listen both, you will be enlightened; if you believe only, you will be dark.
I always feel that there are some things that were not explained clearly that caused the young master to misunderstand us.
Concubine Xuan did not want to be an enemy of a person like the young master, both in public and private matters. Instead, she wanted to be friends with the young master.
Is it too unfair if the young master doesn't even want to give me a chance to explain?"
Meng Xiuyuan chuckled lightly when he heard this and answered:
"I didn't expect that today, before I have seen the swordsmanship in the "Cihang Sword Code", I first learned the master's words and words...
Okay, anyway, I heard that these two are Cihang Jingzhai’s special skills, so I’ll take them up.
Over a cup of tea, a girl can tell her whatever she wants to say and any questions she wants to ask.
I will definitely listen carefully and tell you everything I know. This can be regarded as a thank you to your sect for finding the information about the "Secret of Immortality" for me..."
While talking, Meng Xiuyuan went to the table and sat down, picked up the teapot and poured half a cup for himself and Shi Fei Xuan.
Seeing Meng Xiuyuan's attitude, Master Fei Xuan couldn't help but shook her head lightly, sat down and took a sip of the bitter tea in the cup, and then said softly:
"Mr. Meng, I understand that you felt unhappy when you saw a luxurious scene in Jing Nian Zen Sect that day.
As far as I am concerned, I also don’t think that monks should have too many worldly enjoyments, which would indirectly harm the people.
Feixuan is not a disciple of the Jing Nian Zen Sect, and she cannot explain anything to them.
I just want to say that at this time of crisis, unifying the world and restoring stability is the top priority. Only in this way can thousands of people escape from this troubled world as soon as possible.
I think the young master must have thought so in his heart.
Therefore, in order to achieve this goal, we may be able to put aside some disputes over positions and work more together.
Maybe it will be more appropriate to make these detailed decisions after the world is at peace..."
Meng Xiuyuan shook his head and said to the concubine:
“It is easy to teach after chaos, just as it is easy for hungry people to eat.
Some things can be more effective just by doing them when things are uncertain.
Your faction and I have different positions, so I’m afraid there will be no chance of cooperation..."
The master's concubine Xuan was so thoughtful that she couldn't hear the hidden meaning in Meng Xiuyuan's words. She immediately frowned slightly and whispered to Meng Xiuyuan:
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Mr. Meng, Feixuan really doesn't understand.
What on earth have we done to make the young master regard us as a chronic disease that must be cured before the new dynasty comes?
The disciples of Cihang Jingzhai rarely engage in the world, and they are not greedy for power and wealth in the world. Unless it happens to be a troubled time, or the devil is causing trouble, the gate of Cihang Jingzhai is always closed.
Even Feixuan herself, if she had not been ordered by her master to go down the mountain and end the troubled times, she should have just pursued the way of heaven and devoted herself to studying the "Cihang Sword Code" on the Emperor's Peak..."
Having said this, Master Fei Xuan took a deep breath, looked at Meng Xiuyuan with charming eyes, and said with a hint of coquettishness and resentment:
"If you don't believe me, I would like to swear to you with my Taoist heart:
My concubine Xuan has no intention of gaining a position of power in the world, and she will never seek the slightest benefit for herself after assisting the Ming Lord to unify the world.
If I violate this oath, my mind will be confused, my Taoist heart will be broken, and my martial arts will be completely useless..."
Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard Shi Feixuan's words. Then he looked at Shi Feixuan and his eyes softened a bit.
However, he was not persuaded by Shi Fei Xuan at all, but just smiled softly and said again:
"Miss Master, have you ever thought about why Cihang Jingzhai, who has neither soldiers nor horses, nor food and grass, can always influence the general trend of the world?
The reason why you can go down the mountain alone, hold He's Bi, and do the thing of "choosing the Ming Lord and ending the troubled times", doesn't it depend on Cihang Jingzhai's reputation, power, and status in the world?
And where do these reputations and powers come from and why do they come?"
Master Fei Xuan was stunned when she heard this and was speechless for the first time in this conversation.
Meng Xiu saw the situation and drank the tea in the cup. At the same time, he stood up and said to the concubine:
"Master, let's stop talking today.
But before you leave, I have something else that I want to explain to you.
The unification of the world does not necessarily have to rely on you Cihang Jingzhai to complete it as soon as possible.
And for the Heshi Bi, which symbolizes the imperial power in the world, you may not necessarily have to choose the owner..."
When Meng Xiuyuan said this, his expression became more serious, and an inexplicable aura surged out of him, which made Master Fei Xuan tremble slightly in shock:
"Three days later, I will go to Jing Nian Monastery again to pick up the He clan's jade.
Please also ask Miss Master to know in advance and ask for more helpers to take care of everything."
