Shimen is poisonous

Unlike the wonderful and ups and downs fairy tales that Ye Baihan had read, most of the history of this continent, the deeds of the demons were not too rampant.

Stories are stories.In the story, good and evil confront each other, and there is great pride in the fierce battle, and the evil way seems not so annoying.But in fact, if in the normal world, the magic way would be called the magic way, there would naturally be unacceptable crimes.

For example, Lin Mocheng secretly replaced the living with shady puppets and let them mix with their original relatives and friends to conceal the truth. However, once they are discovered, even innocent women and children will be silenced and create shady puppets. This behavior is the right way completely unacceptable.

No matter what most monks think in their hearts, anyway, on the bright side, cultivators generally advocate the righteous way, and their acceptance of some cruel and vicious methods is very low.The living space of people in the magic way is also very small, and it is impossible to truly form a scale, and even because of the characteristics of the magic way, they will fight each other.

However, this is not to say that there were no eras in history where demons were rampant.In fact, every few hundred years, there would inevitably be turmoil in the practice world, and in troubled times, demons naturally breed, and this kind of thing happened basically as regularly as the change of dynasties.

According to Taoism, this should also be regarded as a kind of nature.

But why is it part of the nature to do evil in the evil way?Why, after years of eradicating evil deeds, still secretly breed evil and let it spread further?

Ye Baihan can understand that evil deeds will never die, but what he can't understand is why people who have grown up in a world of admiration and morality should pursue the way of evil.

In the process of fighting against Lin Mocheng, he seemed to gradually understand.

Good comes from evil, and evil grows from good.

This is also like the rise and fall of dynasties, oppression, war chaos, cruelty, just like the magic way.People hate wars and yearn for prosperity and peace, so when dynasties rise, people who have experienced wars often show various good qualities, such as hard work, bravery, friendship, and compassion.But when life gradually becomes richer, what is nurtured is often no longer good deeds.

Extravagance, selfishness, extreme pursuit of wealth, and even plundering by means against conscience.

"Laughing at the poor and not laughing at the prostitutes" is often a symptom of the evil that breeds in the prosperous age.When the entire era begins to recognize such values, it will be the prelude to the collapse of the era.

As a person who used to live in modern times, Ye Bohan also thought that the ethics in such a feudal background were rotten and smelly.However, when he really went through this process, he realized that even though the ancient ethics and the morality of the present world are different in form, there is no difference in the core part.

Its essence is to prolong the cycle of the collapse of the era and delay the arrival of the battle.

Although there will always be people who use it as a knife and try to use it to kill others; there will always be people who use it as a shield and wrap themselves in it, thinking that they can isolate themselves from the times and deceive themselves and others.

But that is the user's problem, not the original intention of etiquette.

Evil thoughts can use everything in the world as a weapon, not limited to one thing.

Now it is clear that the time for the collapse has come.

Ye Bohan had discovered it before, although before Lin Mocheng, people in the Demonic Way had not dared to show their heads in a big way for many years, it didn't mean that the Demonic Way didn't exist, it was just that they were not so blatant.

In fact, even if the power of the evil way is weak and the power of the righteous way is strong, it doesn't mean that the number of people in the way of magic will decrease.Righteous way does not represent good thoughts, and evil way does not represent evil thoughts.And when the power of the Righteous Way is strong enough, good and evil will naturally form in the Righteous Way.

At this time, the right way and the evil way no longer represent good and evil, but only strength and weakness.

Wicked people who hide their true colors can gain a place in the righteous way. On the contrary, even if the weak have no real evil deeds, they will be persecuted by the power and forced to become the so-called "demon way".

this is not right.

But... is there really such a thing as complete correctness in this world?

Evil is born from the bottom of a person's heart, and some people simply don't want the so-called righteous thoughts and don't believe in it.Evil exists naturally, even if the wicked are influenced by kindness for a moment, in the long run, they will still choose a path that is more beneficial to them.

Just as pity is naturally present, so are jealousy, disgust, and superiority.

In the previous demon slaying conference, some of the righteous families who rebelled were for their own benefit, and some were for survival.Even in the Righteous Way, there are never many things like strong families oppressing and bullying weak families, and big sects bullying small sects.Of course, even if Jin Shuyu reported these news, it would be difficult for Ye Baihan to interfere.

Because in the final analysis, this is a problem left over from thousands of years.

The righteous forces gathered before are very complicated. One is the objects directly persecuted by the demonic way, such as the monks in Yunzhou, or the relatives and friends of some victimized monks in Yunzhou; the second is the cultivators near the main active areas of the demonic way. They, such as the states near Yunzhou, the two palaces in northern Xinjiang, and other related figures.

The third type is the monks who have no stake, but came here to participate in the conference because they heard about what the Demonic Dao had done.

Among them, there are many forces that are at odds with each other. Ye Baihan also discovered some conflicts before, but all of them instructed Jin Shuyu to ease them as much as possible, but don't interfere too deeply. Just don't let the other party make troubles on the way to affect major events.So far, Ye Bohan still doesn't feel that his handling of this aspect is wrong - this is a matter of ability, and he doesn't think that Jin Shuyu has the ability to mediate all conflicts between different forces.

Once the involvement is too deep, it will easily lead to backlash, making people hostile to Ye Baihan's side, and it is not conducive to their next actions.

However, Ye Baihan thought, if this chaos is inevitable in the end, what can he do?From what happened in Dongzhou City, it can already be understood that even the righteous monks on the surface may not be entrusted allies.He didn't even know how many of his current comrades could still fight against the enemy side by side, and how many were ready to move.

But these problems are too complicated, and it is not suitable to know Han Weiying at this time, so he just said: "The situation is complicated, Weiying, you might as well rush over to meet me...By the way, bring that fellow demon fairy along with you come over."

23 blinked, and asked persistently again: "I don't care about your human affairs, I just want to know, how do you know my brother's name? Are you my brother? Or have you met my brother?"

Ye Bohan said: "... I have some news about Lian here, but the source is very confusing, and it is difficult to judge whether it is true or not. I will inform you one by one when fellow daoists come over."

Then he paused and said, "Your Zejun is here too."

"Ze...Jun?" 23 froze for a moment before realizing it, and shouted, "Bie Yunsheng!? How could he be with you!?"

"Ze Jun has some friendship with my father, so he was entrusted by my father to protect me. If you recognize me, you can catch up with him after you come here."

23 I thought to myself, who wants to tell him—wait a minute, father?

He couldn't help blurting out, and asked: "Who is your father!? Is it Emperor Ming!?"

Ye Baihan was taken aback.

His identity is not a secret, but generally speaking, it is not well known to everyone, and he did not expect that 23 would call it out.

He said: "I didn't expect the demons in Penglai to know about my father. Yes, I was born in the royal family of Ming Dynasty, and I am my father's eldest son."

23's heart fluttered, but he immediately shouted: "Wait for me to come over! Where are you!?"

Ye Baihan said, "I'm in Xisha Prefecture now."

23 is impatient, bit his nails, wondering which direction Xisha Prefecture is in.But he was really unfamiliar with the geographical names of human beings, so he didn't think about it for a long time, so he suddenly turned around and asked Han Weiying: "Where is Xisha Prefecture!?"

Han Weiying replied: "You don't know where Xisha Prefecture is? Xisha Prefecture is just a little south of Little Penglai. Most of the entire state is in the desert, so it is called Xisha Prefecture."

23 didn't know where Xisha Prefecture was, but he knew very well about Little Penglai.Little Penglai is also called West Penglai, and it is inextricably related to the original Penglai Fairy Mountain.It is precisely the blessed land excavated by Qingxuan Shenjun, who is regarded as the master of Penglai by human beings for thousands of years.

However, the status of Qingxuan Shenjun is actually quite embarrassing in East Penglai.Because East Penglai is a natural fairyland, even higher than the general Dongtian Paradise.There is Zeshan in Penglai, and Xuanshui in Zeshan, which is the center of the entire Penglai spiritual vein. The strong spiritual pressure makes ordinary monsters dare not approach at all, and spiritual plants also take dozens of times longer than ordinary flowers and trees to germinate and hatch.

But any spiritual plant that can take root and sprout by the Xuanshui is often born with spirituality, and it is easier to give birth to spiritual wisdom.

I don't know when, a natural alien species, Xuanshui White Lotus, was born in Xuanshui. Before it could take shape, it possessed powerful spiritual power.This white lotus grew alone in the Xuanshui. It didn't know the troubles of the world until it met a scholar who traveled thousands of miles up the mountain to ask for medicine.

This scholar is the later Qingxuan Shenjun.

Xuanshui Bailian fell in love with a scholar, turned into a young and beautiful woman and enlightened Qingxuan Shenjun to practice, and only then did Penglai come into existence.And this fairy incarnated as a young woman is Princess Yuhe of Penglai.

What happened later is widely circulated in the world of cultivating immortals and even in the mortal world.

Because Princess Yuhe is a fairy and has infinite time, she is not keen on practicing, so her progress is slow.On the contrary, Lord Qingxuan practiced hard and gradually surpassed his lover in terms of cultivation.But Princess Yuhe was obsessed with the turmoil of the world and didn't care about these, which caused the gap between the two to widen.

Later, Penglai became famous far and wide, and the fairyland became more and more prosperous.Princess Yuhe regards herself as the lord of the fairyland, but finds that the prestige of Qingxuan Shenjun is far greater than herself, so she is jealous, and finally joins the disciples of the Shenjun to lead the monster clan to rebel, trying to seize the Zhigao position, and finally lost to exile.

This is the legend about the past in Penglai.
