After so long, factions gradually formed among the monks. At first, the practitioners looked down on Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing, but slowly they discovered that without them, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would have disbanded immediately, and they would not be able to use this opportunity to practice or achieve any purpose. achieved. Meng De'en was an ordinary person, but since the Taiping Army uprising, he suddenly showed great strength, proficiency in magic and spiritual practice. Yi Yan once suspected that his body had been taken away from him. Zhengzhen Meng De'en had died long ago, and the current Meng De'en was occupied by another soul. Meng Deen came alone. He was wearing a black cloak, black on the outside and red on the inside. Inside the cloak was a fish scale-like armor. It was not an ordinary armor in the world, but a refined treasure armor. Yi Yan sensed the meaning of Dharma from it. If the world is like a big quagmire, then the armor on his body makes his body smaller in the material world. Yi Yan couldn't help but wonder if he would also need to practice some magic weapons. Meng De'en looked at this person who once made the whole world tremble with a single comment, and then fell silent quickly, and said to himself: "Do you finally want to stop being silent? But this is no longer your game." It's worth it." "I heard that some of my soldiers were lost in your army." Meng De'en said. Meng Deen belongs to Hong Xiuquan, and Yi Yan also vaguely belongs to Hong Xiuquan. They should be from the same faction, but the monks only have their own solitude, and they will not accept others. "Yes." Yi Yan replied with a smile. Since Meng Deen asked him directly when he arrived, he had nothing to be polite about. "Then thank you for taking in and taking care of me. Since they are still alive, I will take them back. Although their lives are not worth anything, it will not work if others know that my evil soldiers are left here with you. I don't care about cutting my head off with a sharp blade, but I can't care about being slapped in the face with a knife." Meng De'en said. For him, this was very polite, and he blocked Yi Yan's excuses in advance, telling him that he could be killed, but he could not be shamed. And if Yi Yan refuses to let the evil soldiers who took him in, and he doesn't take the evil soldiers back, then he will be betrayed. This was very straightforward. It was impossible for Yi Yan not to understand. Meng Deen also believed that Yi Yan would understand his uncompromising meaning as soon as he heard it. Since the past few decades, due to changes in the environment of the world of cultivation, practitioners have integrated into this vastly changing world, and their way of speaking and behavior have also been affected by this world. Although they yearn for immortality and enlightenment in their hearts, now they want to live more and keep their magic, or in other words, keep their identity as practitioners. The way they act and speak is no different from those in the world. In other words, they have joined the world and become part of this world. Yi Yan smiled and said, "Maybe I will disappoint the general. I can't hand them over to you" Meng Deen's face had darkened, and his eyes were red with murderous intent, while Yi Yan's eyes were full of murderous intent. It's half-closed, saying it's closed, but it's open, it's saying it's open, but it's not looking at anyone at all. There's emptiness and nothingness in the eyes. He continued: "Because they are already my evil soldiers, I can't give up their lives like this." Obviously, Yi Yan returned them to Meng Deen, and their only fate is death. The evil soldiers not far away listened attentively to the conversation between Yi Yan and Meng De'en. When they heard Meng De'en's words, their faces turned pale in an instant, especially those who were originally Meng De'en. Dong Qingshan, one of Deen's evil soldiers, was also watching not far away, with a solemn expression on his face as well. After hearing Yi Yan's answer, although they breathed a sigh of relief, the tension in their hearts did not diminish at all. Unknowingly, they were worried about Yi Yan's life. This was a bit like a In the family, the children are just as worried about their father's safety. If something happens to Yi Yan, they will find it difficult to gain a foothold in the Taiping Army. "So, you are deliberately trying to make things difficult for me." Meng De'en said coldly. His words were full of the feeling of being in the world. Yi Yan said: "It's not that I have trouble with the general, but if I hand them over to you, general, how can I gain a foothold in the Taiping Army?" "You have been practicing for two or three years, and you are still in the forest." I have learned from Shao Mu, don¡¯t you know that some things cannot be taken? You are asking for it if you put yourself in such a situation. For the sake of your young age, I advise you, don¡¯t force yourself to be the first in everything. , Cause and effect in the world, don't take it lightly, you just have to hand them over before it's too late." Meng De'en looked at Yi Yan closely. If his whole body was like a sky covered with dark clouds, there might be lightning, thunder, and violent storms at any time. easy?It is a green mountain, standing quietly. "Thank you, General, for your care. In fact, I have been thinking about a question in the past two years." He paused for a moment, and then said: "I have always been thinking about what cause and effect is, and what the world of mortals is. Two years ago, I I went to the academy to study every day, helped my mother do some work after school, and taught my younger brother and younger sister how to read. According to what practitioners say, there is no connection between cause and effect, but my father died in an unknown way. , maybe you will say that it is all because of my father, that is why our family is so ruined, and we can't go back to our home." Regardless of his gloomy face, Yi Yan continued to say: "Since then. Only after I embarked on a spiritual journey did I realize that cause and effect and the world of mortals are all lies. Monks all over the world say they are cultivators, but they all practice Dharma and transcendence. , What freedom is, it is just a dream that is far away in the sky. It is unreal, and we are all deceiving ourselves. " "You mean that I am deceiving you. I only need to coax you, a young boy, who has only been practicing for two or three years. I just pity you for being young and it is not easy for you to practice, but in your eyes, I am afraid of you. I will let you know my methods. "No one initially paid attention to Meng Denen's visit to Yi Yan, but when the atmosphere between them became serious, many people stopped and looked over. Just listen to Yi Yan say: "I'm not saying that the general is coaxing me, but that since I am already practicing, since I appear in this world, I have already been entangled in cause and effect. Everything I do and say is my intention. The general does not need to say anything. ." Meng De'en was furious, roared, and his eyes turned red. The people watching from a distance suddenly started whispering when they heard Yi Yan's words. Although Yi Yan's words seemed obscure, in their eyes, they were so direct. Yi Yan's meaning was clearly that the general did not need to Tell me these things and do whatever you want. To put it more directly, just do it if you want to. A ball of bloody energy surged out of Meng Deen's body, and his body continued to expand. In just a moment, this small area of ????the world felt like a sea of ????blood. At this moment, a man suddenly ran up quickly, holding a yellow token, and said loudly: "The King of Heaven has an order. There are no private fights in the Taiping Army. Anyone who violates it will be expelled from the Kingdom of Heaven." The person who gave the order was Yi Yan. He recognized it, it was Li Picheng who Yi Yan had cast a spell on. He had two moles under his eyes, which looked like four eyes at first glance. There had been military orders in the Taiping Army for a long time, and among the military orders was: No matter what kind of personal enmity there was, However, there must be no private fighting in the Taiping Army. Anyone who violates this will be immediately expelled from the Kingdom of Heaven. Although most cultivators do not take Hong Xiuquan and the others seriously, especially Hong Xiuquan, they have to admit that Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing have a position in this kingdom of heaven that is difficult to replace by any cultivator. In the end, Meng De'en did not take action again. Instead, after staring at Yi Yan for a while, he left angrily. When he left, he still threatened: "Young people act too recklessly, and the future will only get worse." The narrower it is, I hope you stay in this camp and don't go out." His threat came to his face, but Yi Yan didn't say anything, just looked at Meng Deen's back. At the same time, his insightful eye had already looked at all the monks nearby, and among them there were many monks who had been accepted by Yi Yan. If everything was as Meng Deen said, Yi Yan had accepted their The evil soldiers have fallen into their trap, so now they are all going to cause trouble for Yi Yan, but now Meng Deen is in front of them, and they are stopped by Hong Xiuquan's order, which makes them unable to take action against Yi Yan for the moment. . Suddenly, Yi Yan felt that something was fishy. "Mr. Qisu, the King of Heaven invites you to come." Chen Picheng did not leave, he said respectfully to Yiyan.
