Compared with the last time Ning Que saw Ye Su in Linkang, Ye Su looked thinner and paler. But he looked calmer, without any trace of arrogance.
There were hundreds of people listening to his sermon, filling up the entire alley. However, no one made a sound, and the place was unimaginably quiet.
His voice kept ringing in the quiet alley in front of the dilapidated house, mixed with a few painful coughs. The content of his preaching was mainly the West-Hill Scripture, which was quite different from that of ordinary priests.
Ning Que's eyes fell on the people who were listening to the preaching. Although the clothes of these believers were simple, and many of them had patches on their clothes, they were all very clean. The dozens of people in the southeast were obviously much wealthier in their clothes, but they were also sitting quietly on the white futons like their companions.
Through observation, he found that Ye Su's preaching was much smoother than expected, which made him even more worried. Because Sangsang said that these people should be burned to death. He knew that she would do it.
Soon after Ye Su started preaching in Linkang, Ning Que came here. He knew that this was Ye Su's self-redemption, and he wanted to lead the world to realize self-redemption.
Haotian Taoism required believers to turn their desires into offerings based on their faith in Haotian, and to place their hopes on the Divine Kingdom. Ye Su's redemption was to seek help from themselves.
For Haotian Taoism, this change seemed small, but in fact, it was a shocking revolution, because this revolution started from the bottom. It replaced the yearning for the Divine Kingdom with the love of the world, and asked the believers to save themselves. If all this could be successful, then what position would Haotian Taoism be in?
"Haotian is watching you."
Ye Su stood in front of the dilapidated house and looked at the believers. He said calmly, "No matter what you do, no matter what you think, you are under Haotian's watch. So you have to reflect on your behavior all the time, from morning to dusk, from waking up to sleeping. You can go against Haotian's doctrine, but have you done good? Have you restrained evil?"
Ning Que couldn't help but look at Sangsang beside him.
Sangsang was looking at Ye Su.
Haotian was looking at him.
She didn't say anything, but just listened to his preaching without any expression.
"Actually … what he said is not completely unreasonable."
Ning Que said, "Eliminating the intermediate link of the West-Hill Divine Palace, and the believers will directly dedicate their love to you. From the perspective of logistics, it can improve efficiency and save costs."
Sangsang said, "The Divine Kingdom belongs to the Divine Kingdom, and the secular world belongs to the secular world. So, is the Haotian they believe in me or each of them?"
Ning Que could not answer this question. Ye Su's preaching was to fundamentally overthrow the doctrine of Haotian Taoism and to separate the specific meaning of the faith into self-awareness.
From this point of view, the faith of these believers was not the faith that Haotian needed, because it was very likely that Haotian could no longer absorb their power of faith.
While the two of them were talking, today's teachings had already ended. Hundreds of believers left in an orderly manner, leaving a group of children to tidy up the venue and prepare for the afternoon craft class.
Ye Su covered his mouth with his hand and coughed twice. When he was about to take down the blackboard hanging in front of the window, he suddenly saw Ning Que and Sangsang outside the crowd. His body stiffened involuntarily.
…
…
The door of the shabby house was pushed open. Ning Que and Sangsang walked in and were surprised to see Chen Pipi lying on the bed and Tang Xiaotang cooking by the stove in the corner.
Chen Pipi opened his eyes and looked at Ning Que with a smile. However, his smile froze on his face before he could wave his hand. The spatula in Tang Xiaotang's hand also froze in the air. They had never seen Sangsang at this time. But since they saw Ning Que, they naturally knew who the woman beside him was.
Ye Su had already lifted the front of his robe and obediently knelt in front of Sangsang.
Sangsang indifferently looked at everything in the house with her hands behind her back.
She did not speak, so Ye Su did not get up and humbly knelt.
Sangsang's eyes fell on him without a trace of warmth.
"Twenty years ago, in the Wilderness, you called Tang an evil demon and Qi Nian an outsider. If you saw you now, what would you call me?"
Many years ago, she was born in a doctor's mansion in Chang 'an. Ye Su said a few words when Ning Que climbed over the wall with a blood-stained chopper and a black line appeared on the Wilderness.
Ning Que's expression was a bit complicated.
Ye Su was silent for a long time and said calmly and firmly, "Today, I am not as stupid as I was yesterday. Yesterday, I will not be as evil as I am today."
Sangsang said, "How is blasphemy not evil?"
Ye Su said, "Humans are ants, and they want to live a better life."
Sangsang said, "For countless years, I have never punished or punished anyone."
Ye Su said, "What do you mean by Everlasting Night?"
Sangsang said, "It's just pruning."
Ye Su said, "Every branch and every leaf is a life."
Sangsang said, "The Buddha is lying."
Ye Su said, "The Buddha does not speak. Life is also a life."
There was a dead silence in the dilapidated house. Sangsang and Ye Su's voices kept ringing, and the atmosphere became heavier and more depressing. Tang Xiaotang was holding a spatula in front of the stove, and there was a faint burning smell behind her.
As a former World Wayfarer of Haotian Taoism, he dared to point out Haotian's wrongdoings and insisted on his own opinion. Ye Su, who had become a cripple, was stronger than most people in the world.
Sangsang asked, "If people want me to save them, why bother to save themselves?"
Ye Su said, "Haotian loves people. How can he not allow people to save themselves?"
Sangsang glanced at Ning Que and said, "Why should I love people?"
She had asked Ning Que this question before, but Ning Que could not answer. Ye Su, who was much more knowledgeable than Ning Que, could not answer either. But he could make a rhetorical question.
"If so, why should people love Haotian?"
Sangsang's willowy eyes suddenly became bright and extremely cold.
With a sizzling sound, the vegetables in the iron pot behind Tang Xiaotang were finally burnt.
Ning Que clapped his hands and said, "I'm suddenly so hungry. I want to eat!"
Chen Pipi sat up from the bed and shouted angrily at Tang Xiaotang, "How can you burn a vegetable? Are you going to let me eat? Do you want to starve your husband? "
Tang Xiaotang knew what they wanted to do, but she still felt wronged. She waved the spatula and shouted angrily, "I have never cooked in the tribe or in the back of the mountain. Why should I cook?"
Ning Que walked to Sangsang and asked, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? "
Chen Pipi rolled up from the bed and helped Ye Su to sit on the edge of the bed. Then, he looked at Sangsang and said, "Seriously, I haven't eaten your cooking for several years. Do you want to show me your cooking today?"
Seeing that no one paid attention to her, Tang Xiaotang kept turning the burnt vegetables in the iron pot with the spatula and looked very wronged.
In an instant, the room turned from dead silence to extremely noisy. In an instant, the room was filled with the smoke of the human world. In an instant, a table of dishes was ready.
Sangsang was not used to this change and looked a little confused. Before she could figure it out, she was led to the table by Ning Que and sat down. Tang Xiaotang put a bowl of white rice in her hand.
Ning Que and Chen Pipi looked at each other and saw the lingering fear in each other's eyes. They wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads. Only these two brothers could react so quickly and dare to fool Haotian like this.
Sitting at the table, Ning Que said to Ye Su, "Let me formally introduce you to my wife, Sangsang."
Ye Su also did not come to his senses. He nodded subconsciously and said to Sangsang, "Just some home-cooked dishes. Feel free to eat. Just treat it as your own home."
After saying this, he felt that it was a little strange.
Sangsang did not say anything and quietly looked at the white rice in her hand and the green vegetables on it.
The people sitting at the table were worried that she would suddenly wake up. Chen Pipi desperately winked and tried to get Tang Xiaotang to say something. Tang Xiaotang widened her eyes and thought that she was not good at talking. Shouldn't Chen Pipi and Ning Que be the ones to do this? Chen Pipi kept coughing and thought, Aren't you her best friend?
Tang Xiaotang looked at the men sitting at the table like clay statues and suddenly felt that something was missing. She asked, "Where is the Big Black Horse? I heard that he also left Peach Mountain. I thought he would follow you. "
Any topic, as long as someone started it, Ning Que had the ability to drag it away. He pretended to be surprised and asked, "How do you know what happened in the Divine Halls of West-Hill?"
Chen Pipi interrupted at the right time, "We left West-Hill with the disciples of the Sword Garret and now live in Linkang City. Liu Yiqing will naturally inform us about what happened in the cultivation world."
Tang Xiaotang very timely pulled the topic back again, "Where is the Big Black Horse?"
"He is too big. I am afraid that he will bump into people in the alley, so I let him stay in the mountain outside the city." Ning Que said, "Speaking of which, how have you been these days?"
Chen Pipi said helplessly, "I have been listening to Senior Brother's lectures every day. My ears are calloused."
Tang Xiaotang stared at him fiercely. Ning Que wanted to strangle him. He thought, "Everyone says that you are the most talented guy in Haotian Taoism and the Academy. How come you suddenly become a pig brain? We have finally diverted the topic, but you bring it back to Ye Su's preaching. What are you doing? "
Chen Pipi also realized that he had said something wrong. He was anxious and secretly glanced at Sangsang.
Sangsang knew that he was secretly looking at her. She said expressionlessly, "Let's eat."
Everyone answered obediently and then began to eat, not daring to speak again.
Not talking while eating meant concentration, and concentration naturally led to fast eating. Before long, all the food on the table was cleared. Chen Pipi very irresponsibly hid in the kitchen to wash the dishes, leaving the heavy responsibility to others.
Sangsang stood up and looked at Tang Xiaotang, saying, "You."
Tang Xiaotang stood up nervously and said, "What's the matter?"
Sangsang put her hands behind her back and walked out of the room. She said, "Follow me."
Tang Xiaotang glanced at everyone and did not know what to do.
Ning Que comforted her, "Don't worry. I have never seen her eat people."
"How can you comfort people like that?"
Chen Pipi rushed over with a wet rag in his hand and looked at him with grief and indignation. Then he looked at Sangsang's back and said in a trembling voice, "Come back early if you have nothing else to do. There will be wine and meat tonight."
