Chapter 118 Saints and Spirits

Ning Caichen's first words came with the oral order of Emperor Shang. It seemed that the Shang emperor had foreseeed all of this today. After hearing Ning Caichen's words, Lin Xi stopped, but did not make a reply. Ning Caichen did not continue to read the content of the oral order, as if he was waiting for Lin Xi to make a decision!

"Now that the lives of the people are in danger, you and my brothers will be together again tomorrow!" Lin Xi didn't think much, so he left a sentence. Then he took Niu Qing and Bai Zhi to cover his hands and jumped away.

Lin Xi suddenly left, Ning Caichen was extremely calm, as if all this was within his expectations. When he was the only one left on the entire river bank, he turned around and looked at the quiet flowing river.

Under the moonlight, Ning Caichen shook his head slightly, and a helpless smile appeared on his face.

"You can find things that I pursue for my life. But for that demon fox, you don't even want to listen! Brother Lin, Brother Lin, I really don't know if you should be jealous of you? Or regret it for you?"

Ning Caichen murmured to himself, his tone of helplessness and regret, but it was not as he said, without any jealousy in his tone.

Just a moment after Ning Caichen finished speaking, a purple light flashed across the space behind him. Then the hundred people's ceremonial guards and Li Yannian appeared on the river bank.

"Shangshu Ning, we have not obtained the "Eternal Poisonous Classic". This is because of the entrusted by Lord and Your Majesty!" Li Yannian walked behind Lin Xi and said with some concern.

"Haha, Shangshu Li doesn't have to worry, just a book of "Eternal Poison Sutra". What kind of person are you? How could you care about a book of Poison Sutra? Getting this sutra is just to save millions of innocent people. But now that the scriptures are taken away by Shizhong Lin, the result is the same, and our mission has been completed. This trip has been made and no faults, and Shangshu Li can rest assured!"

Unexpectedly, Ning Caichen said something unreasonable with a smile. However, from these words, it can be seen that the adults and Shanghuang mentioned by Ning Caichen do have a mind that ordinary people cannot reach.

"Ah... it's so!" Li Yannian was shocked when he heard this. With his knowledge, he naturally knew the significance of the "Eternal Poisonous Sutra", which was a classic that made the ancient "Poison Saint". Ordinary people use any means to fight for this thing, but the great master and Your Majesty can regard it as nothing. Such vision and mind are already at the realm of a saint!

The standard of ancient saints is not just the strength of their power, but more importantly the perfection of mind and thought. Only such people are worthy of being called "saint". This is also why although Zhang Bojing's power has reached the saint, he only has the title of "Eternal Poison King", and no one really calls him "poison Saint".

This is the reason why big people must have a big mind!

"Okay, let's report back to the court! Let's leave the matter here to Shizhong Lin." Ning Caichen turned around and headed towards the sedan chair, and still called Lin Xi the Shizhong in his words.

On the other hand, Lin Xi took Bai Zhi and others to appear in the "Weicheng". Lin Xi flew directly over the "Weicheng" and released the "Kunwu Stone" and the "Eternal Poison Classic". Then, "Ge Zhu Stick" pointed at the "Eternal Poison Classic". I saw countless poisonous gases rising in the "Weicheng" and all poured into the "Eternal Poison Classic". However, in an instant, the poison of the people in the city was relieved.

Then Lin Xi followed the method and went to three cities, Ancheng, Jincheng and Fucheng. He extracted all the poisonous gases from these three cities, and the plague that poisoned the world was finally lifted at the last moment.

"Master Lin, thank you this time. I will take Fushou back to the Medicine King Valley first. My sisters and I will come to the door to thank you in person!" Bai Zhi held Fushou and said to Lin Xi. Fushou had not woken up yet, and she seemed to be in her life.

"Miss Bai is sure to cure the hand-over girl?" Lin Xi asked with some concern when he looked at the seriousness of the hand-over.

"The owner of Lao Lin has troubled her. She lost her energy after being punished. If the treatment is not good, it will be useless to be the descendant of the doctor's saint." Bai Zhi replied confidently.

"Okay, Lin will definitely sweep the bed to wait for the two girls to come." Lin Xi bowed and replied, "He attached great importance to these two successors to the doctor family. Now it is an unexpected gain to make these two owe him a favor.

Then Bai Zhi left with Fu Shu. The few of them tacitly did not mention that Bai Zhi had originally concealed Lin Xi. In fact, this was not a big deal. Lin Xi calculated from Bai Zhi's description and Niu Qing's reminder that the two of them should have been curious about the "Eternal Poisonous Sutra" and were controlled by the Poisonous Sutra. However, because the Poisonous Sutra was sealed for too long, and the "Eternal Poisonous Sutra" had just been controlled but did not completely dominate, so it seemed that Bai Zhi was chasing the "Eternal Poison King" all the way, but in fact, there was also the consciousness of "Eternal Poisonous Sutra" in "Eternal Poisonous Sutra" and followed Bai Zhi all the way. This is why you pretended to attack Bai Zhi, and the "Eternal Poisonous Sutra" instinctively rescued.

"Haha, Brother Lin, it's time for us to go on the road!" After Bai Zhi left, Niu Qing reminded Lin Xi with a smile. He seemed to be not concerned about what happened in the past few days.

On the official road leading to the northwest outside Fucheng, an ordinary carriage was moving forward slowly. The curtain on one side of the carriage carriage was pulled up, revealing Niu Qing's smile on his face and looking out the window. Lin Xi in the carriage was sitting quietly, without any intention of appreciating the scenery outside the carriage.

The shadow of Ning Caichen has always appeared in Lin Xi's mind. If there are still some people worthy of his concern in the human world, only Zhang Moben and Ning Caichen. Now Ning Caichen is approaching his goal step by step. Originally, Lin Xi should have been happy for him, but since the last time Ning Caichen appeared in the Da Shang army, Lin Xi had a bad premonition. If Ning Caichen fulfilled his wish one day, the battle between the two tribes of the human race would force him to confront Ning Caichen head-on. Did he be able to take action at that time? Did Ning Caichen take action?

"Brother Lin seems to know the court official named Ning?" Just as Lin Xi was thinking about what might happen to him and Ning Caichen in the future, Niu Qing suddenly put down the curtain and spoke.

"Well, I met him since childhood. Later, I became a disciple of the same teacher." Lin Xi replied vaguely.

"Oh! It's a bit like Miss Bai Zhi and Miss Biaoshou!" I wonder what Niu Qing was thinking, but he actually thought of this place.

"I was so strange. Why didn't rush directly with me to go to Longyou, but instead insisted on taking a carriage to go?" Lin Xi did not want to mention his affairs with Ning Caichen, so he pulled the topic away.

"What? Brother Lin is in a hurry to go to Longyou?"

"That's not."

"Isn't that right? Since there is no rush, why should I rush to arrive? The so-called reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles. Going along the way is also a practice and a training!" Niu Qing's answer this time made a lot of sense, which made Lin Xi not know how to answer for a while. Moreover, the sentence "Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles" was also Zhang Moben's instructions back then.

"Sir, you are worthy of being a sir. What you said is similar to what my teacher said back then." Lin Xi smiled slightly and said with a slight joking voice.

"This shows that your teacher is also a person with rich experience." Niu Qing smiled proudly.

In the past month, Lin Xi and Niu Qing headed towards Longyou like two ordinary people. Apart from carriages, they would occasionally hike. During this month, Lin Xi did not use any magical powers, and Niu Qing was still so hiding, making people unable to see that he was any different.

Along the way, Lin Xi and Niu Qing became more and more like a couple of years old, but occasionally Niu Qing said something, but Lin Xi felt enlightened. Niu Qing's insights and some strange theories also made Lin Xi very rewarding.

Among them, Lin Xi’s biggest gain was that he accidentally learned the reason for “the saint has no form” from Niu Qing!

This happened when Lin Xi and Niu Qing passed by Huizhou. Huizhou was just a prefecture set up by the Great Shang Dynasty. However, this is the hometown of the ancient "Sage of Lidao". To this day, there are many temples in various parts of Huizhou that worship this saint. However, all the portraits and sculptures of the saint are also faceless!

"Mr. I know everything. Can you tell me why this saint has no face during the journey?" Lin Xi asked Niu Qing naturally in front of an ordinary temple in Huizhou.

"Brother Lin is now asking the right person. Niu likes to search for the footsteps of sages throughout his life. As for what you said, "Sages are in no form" I do know something!" This time Niu Qing also looked very cooperative.

"Does Brother Lin know what kind of person can be called a saint?" Niu Qing did not explain himself, but instead asked Lin Xi first.

"I once heard from the teacher that saints are all their own virtues and the laws of the universe, and their wisdom is flexible and there is no fixed way. They have thoroughly understood the origin and end of all things in the universe. They have merged with all living beings in the world and all things in the world, and they naturally live together, expanding the way of heaven into their own temperament. The inner light is like the sun and the moon, and like a god, and they cultivate sentient beings in the dark. Ordinary people will never understand how noble and great his virtues are. Even if they understand a little, they will not be able to truly understand where the margins of his spirit are. Only those who have reached this state are saints."

Lin Xi recalled Zhang Moben's words back then, but his words retelled Zhang Moben's words word by word.

"Haha, actually your teacher has already told you the reason. Didn't Brother Lin find out?" Niu Qing suddenly laughed and continued, "Like a god, boundless. Since that's the case, how can these ordinary things carry the appearance of a saint?"

"So it's so simple..." Lin Xi murmured to himself. However, he did not expect that the problem that had troubled him for several years was so simple. The saints had no form just because there was no thing that could fully carry them in this world!

Just as Lin Xi suddenly became clear, his expression suddenly changed, as if he had discovered something. He asked Niu Qing thoughtfully: "Like a god? Then that is to say, the saint is just close to the existence of the gods. Is there really a god in this world?"

"Is there really a god in this world?"

It was this seemingly casual question that Lin Xi asked, and Niu Qing, who had always been mysterious, showed a hint of doubt on his face. This was the first time Lin Xi saw such an expression on his face.

"God? Maybe... maybe there is..." Niu Qing was extremely abnormal at this moment. Lin Xi's question seemed to evoke some memories hidden deep in his heart, making Niu Qing seem to have become a different person. At this moment, Niu Qing gave Lin Xi the feeling that she had been aged for thousands of years in an instant, and it showed a vicissitudes that were inconsistent with her appearance. And this vicissitudes were like an old man in the evening, recalling the glory of the past, and then getting old lonely!

"What is a god?"

Seeing Niu Qing's strange behavior, Lin Xi suddenly raised his voice and asked Niu Qing if he couldn't defend himself. After Lin Xi's sudden question, Niu Qing raised his head and almost subconsciously answered:
Chapter completed!
