Yin and Yang Taoist Code

He swept away the debris with a flick of his sleeve, called over a coffee table, placed it on the table and filled it with tea, and respectfully handed it to Mu Fangli.

"Brother, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that. It's a good thing that the child is back, and I'm happy for you, but there are some things we can't do this way! You know the Mu family's clan rules better than anyone else. You can privately recognize the child, but if you hold a big banquet to include him in the Mu family tree, even if I agree, what will the other clan elders think? What will the ancestors think? What will the younger generations of the Mu family think? You have also been the head of the family. You don't know how many people below want to include the relatives in the family tree. If you set this precedent, how will you explain to those people? Will you talk to them about the clan rules again? Can you still convince them?"

"Convince them? What a joke! If they have the ability, they can also become the head of the family. The eldest, and also married to the Yuwen family and had children, and also had the courage to compete with the emperor for recognition. If they can do it, I will obey them. I have no objection to how many they want to recognize! If you can't do it, shut up. You dare to clamor for companionship when you have no ability. Don't you want to live a good life? ! "

"Brother, you are unreasonable. We are talking about the clan rules..."

"Okay, let's talk about the clan rules! I must recognize my relatives. If you violate the clan rules, you can't convince the public without punishing me. That's fine, just use the clan rules to abolish me and drive me out of the Mu family. Are you satisfied?"

"Brother, what are you doing? Is it fun to say something angry?"

Mu Fangxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. When Mu Fangli's stubborn temper came up, no one could do anything. When he was not the head of the family before, he felt that his eldest brother was very domineering when he watched from the side. Now that he has become the head of the family, he can only smile bitterly in his heart.

He forced the teacup into Mu Fangli's hand and said, "Brother, if you don't consider the clan rules, you should consider the feelings of the Yuwen family, right? The child is not only ours, but also the Yuwen family's. His father is Yuwen Tailuo. If you include him in our Mu family, how can Yuwen Tailuo deal with himself? Isn't this going to make him a laughing stock?"

"Hmph! I wish I could kill him with my own hands now. A laughing stock? That's a good deal for him!"

He grabbed the teacup and slapped it on the table, and the teacup and the newly replaced tea table were broken into pieces again. Mu Fangxi twitched his mouth and was too lazy to change it. He poured a cup of tea and controlled it to float in front of Mu Fangli's eyes.

Ignoring his good intentions, Mu Fangli's anger was suppressed and he stared at him deeply, his sharp eyes seemed to pierce Mu Fangxi.

"Second brother, there are only two of us here, so you don't have to play dumb. You know why I'm in such a hurry to recognize him! I've just told you everything here. This is the first and last time I'm asking you, do you have a role in this? Look into my eyes and answer me. If you still recognize me as your big brother, don't lie to me!"

"Big brother, what are you talking about!"

Mu Fangxi was angry and threw the cup in his hand heavily to the ground.

"Brother, you and I are brothers from the same mother, I will never harm you! You love Ling girl, and I treat her like your own daughter, do you think I will harm her? If I knew this would be the result, I would never have nodded at the beginning, even if you all agreed, I would not agree! What a bullshit Yin-Yang pupil, how can it be more important than Ling girl! For a Taoist eye that has less than 30% chance of being born, what do you think I would do? She is not only your daughter and my niece, she is also the saint of our Mu family, the lifeblood of our Mu family's Dao! Since the ancestor Lianxing, it has been five thousand years since such a good seedling was finally born. Only an idiot would take her life to exchange for Dayan's national destiny. Do you think I am a fool?"

Mu Fangxi became more and more angry as he spoke, and suddenly stood up, bit his tongue and condensed a mouthful of blood in front of him, and formed a mysterious hand seal with one hand and pressed it on it.

"God, all the Daos have witnessed this. I, Mu Fangxi, swear with my soul, life essence, Dao heart and Dao fruit that I know nothing about this matter. I have never had the slightest thought of harming you or Ling'er from beginning to end. If I lie, my soul will be shattered and my Dao heart will be annihilated. Reincarnation is not tolerated by the Heavenly Dao. Truth!"

When the last word came out, the souls of the two people shook together, as if something mysterious passed by them. Mu Fangxi's soul tightened slightly as if it was attached to something, but when he looked closely, there was nothing, just like an illusion.

Both knew that it was not an illusion, but a soul oath that was more unpredictable than the Dao oath. At their level, especially those who practiced the law of derivation, the Dao oath was not without a way to break it. But the soul oath was different. Let alone them, no one had ever heard of anyone who could break the bondage of the soul oath since ancient times.

Mu Fangxi said this, and Mu Fangli finally felt relieved.

He stood up and patted Mu Fangxi on the shoulder, and he sighed deeply.

"Second brother, it's not that I don't trust you, but after learning about these things, I don't know who to trust."

"Don't worry, brother, I understand."

Mu Fangxi smiled slightly, and then a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"The words of Taoist Master Tian may not be true. He was not here when the incident happened. I don't believe that he is really so knowledgeable about things. However, if what he said is true, then the Yuwen family is sorry for our Mu family. Back then, the ancestor of Qiming died Yu Wen Wuji went against the will of heaven and changed his fate by doing his best. As a result, he suffered the backlash from heaven and died young. However, the ancestor Qiming did it voluntarily and had no regrets even if he died. We, the younger generations, cannot judge anything, we can only Talking about the kindness of our ancestors, the Yuwen family has always remembered this kindness, so the successive emperors of Yan have been very good to us, and at some times we were even like a family. But when it comes to Yuwen Tailuo, if he ignores this. This kindness really turned the tables on us. It was really him who killed Ling'er and almost killed Ling'er's child. It's impossible to say that. I, Mu Fangxi, will also follow the example of Patriarch Qiming and let the human world have this A different look in a day!"

Mu Fangli's heart warmed up and he pressed Mu Fangxi's shoulder hard: "If you want to follow suit, I, the biological father, should come first, and you, the uncle, have to wait in the back row!"

Mu Fangxi looked back with a smile, and both brothers saw coldness and determination in each other's eyes.

After a pause, Mu Fangli said in a deep voice: "Second brother, Yuwen Tailuo is not in a hurry in advance. How can he sweep the whole world if he doesn't sweep the whole house? Our Mu family's house is also a little unclean."

Mu Fangxi nodded coldly: "Don't worry, brother, I will check carefully."

"Move gently, don't raise dust."

"It's natural. As long as there is dust, just pour a basin of water on it and wipe it away. It won't choke other people."

"Well, as long as you control your situation, I can rest assured that you will do the work."

The two brothers looked at each other and smiled. Mu Fangxi's face softened and she asked in a low voice: "Brother, why don't we take it easy on the marriage acknowledgment?"

"no!"

Mu Fangli shook his head firmly.

"I was lucky this time, and I got the person back before Yuwen Tailuo. If there is no suitable reason to keep the person, and Yuwen Tailuo comes with an imperial edict, what reason do you have to not let him enter the palace? The only way is to become Mu Only a member of the family is qualified to resist the decree, otherwise we can only watch him being taken away. Even if he wants to resist, he will be arrested for resisting the decree and disrespecting Emperor Yan. This is absolutely not allowed. of!"

After saying that, Mu Fangli sighed deeply.

"In the past, I wouldn't have worried. After all, he is his own child. Even if he doesn't like it, he will be treated coldly at most, and it will not harm his life. But it is different now. As long as half of what he said in the first year of junior high school is true, he will enter the palace. Even if I die, there is a 90% chance that there will be no way out! I can't bet on whether Yuwen Xiao'er will kill him. I don't dare to bet and I can't afford to bet. He is Ling'er's child, and I must give it to him first. He gave Yuwen Tailuo a guarantee that he would not dare to act rashly, and then he would investigate the truth for him and seek justice for him and Ling'er!"

"Even if it violates the clan rules?" Mu Fangxi frowned.

Mu Fangli shook his head and chuckled: "Clan rules? Haha, no clan rules are as important as my grandson! Besides, I even violated the ancestral precepts for Yin Yang Tong back then, clan rules? So what if I break them!"

"But the clan elders..." Mu Fangxi was still worried.

Mu Fangli sneered when he heard this and waved his hand carelessly.

"A bunch of old guys without farsightedness, if they have any opinions, just let them come to me directly!"

"But what if they invite a few ancestors out again..."

"Please come out, please come out, will I be afraid of them?"

Mu Fangli sneered.

"You should respect them because they are older and higher up. Do you really think you are the one and only ancestor? You are kidding! This is the Mu family, not a den of thieves built by reckless men like Taixu Palace. There is no such thing as three ancestors and five ancestors. ! The Mu family's cultivation is still the highest among me. If you have the ability, you can see the real results. Don't use your seniority to pressure others! If it weren't for their encouragement back then, Ling'er wouldn't know how much he has cultivated now, and all the flaws in "Thousands of Planes" Maybe it will be completed! A bunch of dying old guys have already broken off one of the Mu family's legs. If they can, they will also cripple me. Let's see who else can support them in the Mu family who has lost their spine. , let them show off their prestige everywhere!”

Mu Fangxi was silent.

Mu Fangli was right, he was the backbone of the Mu family. If he were gone, it would take many years for the Mu family to recover. Although Mu Fangxi thinks he is not bad, but in terms of "Qianji Wanyan" alone, there is still a gap between him and his eldest brother, especially other clan elders.

"By the way, you can check those five old guys and see where they came from and where they learned our Mu family's "Thousands of Planes". There is no such thing as our Mu family's However, those five old guys must have some tricks up their sleeves, and it’s definitely not as simple as leaking their skills. I have a feeling that Ling’er’s death has something to do with them!”

"Okay, I'll try my best."

Mu Fangxi nodded, then his face turned bitter.

"Brother, are you really not going to take over as the head of the family?"

Mu Fangli nodded matter-of-factly and said, "You did a good job and are better than me. Why should I replace you?"

"But you used to be the head of the family. We agreed at the beginning that I would temporarily take over for you, and you would come back when you figure it out and feel better. You see, you are out of seclusion now, and you have to recognize me in an unprecedented way. Big fat grandson, wouldn't you be more confident if you took over as the head of the family? Don't worry about the clan elders. They all know how capable you are, and they don't dare to say no even if they don't want to. You see... .?"

"What are you looking at? Don't look at it!"

Mu Fangli rolled his eyes.

"You are more considerate than me in dealing with people. Those old guys have a much better relationship with you than with me. In this regard, you are better than me! Besides, I am thinking about Ling'er now. Every time Thinking about it, I want to kill those old guys and then kill me. You want me to face them as the head of the family? Are you not afraid of me killing people? "

Mu Fangxi shrank his neck, his elder brother was really capable of doing this.

Sighing, he missed the carefree days of the past. When he became the head of the family, he had to maintain his dignity. He couldn't be as domineering as Mu Fangli, but at least he had to not be angry and assert himself in awe of others, so he could only wave goodbye to the happy days.

Now think about it, how long has it been since you went to Yingchunfang in Xijiekou? How long has it been since you visited Wangyouxuan on Tianshui Street?

It must be five or six hundred years ago, right?

The soulmates and beauties from back then must have turned into ashes, right?

Mu Fangxi felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.

As a result, there was a crisp "clang" sound, and something even more uncomfortable happened.

Mu Fangli went crazy and broke a jade plate that he liked very much, and then split the bookshelf into a mess of butterflies with a palm from the air.

Mu Fangxi hadn't seen this scene for hundreds of years. Mu Fangxi was stunned for a moment before she realized what she was doing. Instead of stepping forward to stop him, she said with a grimace: "Brother, is it still necessary?"

"Why is it not necessary!"

Mu Fangli's eyes widened, and there was a hint of shrewdness that was incompatible with his temperament, and he smashed another delicate wooden table into pieces.

"Since I was a child, I asked you to cooperate with me in creating the illusion that we are at odds with each other. What's going on now? It's paid off, right? You see how much those old guys support you. As soon as I showed my intention to resign, they immediately locked you up. Pushed up, I have been like an old scalper all these years, much more obedient than when I was in office. I am afraid that you will be outdone by me! Now that you want to investigate secretly, naturally you can't let anyone see us. The real relationship between the two of you, so that they won’t be on guard against you! So you have to act when the drama needs to be done, and smash things when they need to be smashed!”

As he spoke, the crisp sound started again, and a beautiful glass cup turned into fragments on the ground.

Mu Fangxi had a look of pain on her face: "Brother, I have kept that glass lamp for three hundred years. It is a fine antique."

"Stop talking nonsense! You have lived for thousands of years, and something that is three hundred years old is considered an antique to you? If you smash it, it is smashed, and you can just mend it later!"

"But the person who did it is long dead..."

"So I said you are stupid. When will you get rid of this problem? How can a monk collect antiques? How good is it to collect magic weapons honestly? There are no bad ones for 8,000 years, and they are still strong! Look at you These things in the house don't look like a monk's residence. Look at your chessboard. It's obviously a fine piece of white jade, but it's just left here after being carved. What a waste of natural resources!"

As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and the warm fat white jade chessboard without a trace of color turned into white flour.

"Look, it's broken, isn't it? It's a pity that a good spiritual material is wasted, what a waste!"

As he muttered, Mu Fangli kept smashing and tearing apart.

Mu Fangxi couldn't bear to watch anymore. She covered her eyes and turned away in pain, closing her five senses so that she couldn't hear the sounds that broke his heart.

At this moment, he missed his old life extremely.

It was so beautiful at that time...
