Honghuang: I am Kuiniu, and I instructed Nuwa to create humans at the beginning.

Chapter 21 Niu Kui in Laozi's Eyes

As Niu Kui's mind moved, an incarnation condensed on the back of his body, and then went directly in the direction of Laozi.

At this time, Laozi was walking towards the human tribe with a thoughtful look. Suddenly, he saw a man riding a cow slowly opposite him. Laozi sat on the cow's back and watched closely, wanting to see who the other person was.

As Laozi's gaze fell on Niu Kui, he saw a golden light of merit. Although it could not be compared with his three brothers, it was rare in this primitive world.

This inevitably made Laozi secretly say in his heart: "This person actually has the merits of the Heavenly Dao to protect his body. He must be a person with great opportunities. Why have I never seen this person before?"

Even now, Laozi has seen the aura of a quasi-saint in Niu Kui. Logically speaking, such a person must be a guest in Zixiao Palace. However, whether in Zixiao Palace or anywhere else, Laozi has never seen this person.

This made Laozi even more curious, and he subconsciously urged the green ox under his crotch to go directly in the direction of Niu Kui.

At this time, Niu Kui was also paying attention to Laozi. Seeing that Laozi finally took the bait, Niu Kui couldn't help but feel happy.

"Here you are, you are finally here. You brought this upon yourself, and when the time comes I will share your Heavenly Dao merits, you can't blame me."

Thinking this in his heart, Niu Kui turned his head on the back of the ox and looked in the direction of Laozi. For a moment, the two of them looked at each other, and Niu Kui even showed a smile on his face.

Niu Kui bowed to Laozi and said, "I see that you are no ordinary person. I wonder what your name is and where you are practicing in the famous mountains and rivers?"

I didn't get ahead of myself, so I returned the greeting to Niu Kui and said, "I am Taiqing, cultivating in Kunlun Mountain. What's your name?"

Niu Kui didn't expect that Laozi would be so approachable. This seemed different from the ancient Laozi he knew. After all, in Niu Kui's cognition, Laozi was a person who no one should approach.

But at this moment, Niu Kui didn't have time to worry about whether everything Laozi showed was fake or he was just so approachable.

He could only bow once more and say, "So it is Senior Taiqing who has come to visit. I, the junior Niu Kui, am sorry for being disrespectful. Senior Taiqing, please forgive me."

Hearing that the person in front of him was Niu Kui, who had instructed Nuwa to create humans, Laozi couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He even felt that his chance had come, and it was confirmed by Niu Kui.

So he immediately said to Niu Kui: "So it's Brother Niu Kui, the Saint Master of the Human Race. I didn't expect that I would have such an opportunity to meet Brother Niu Kui here."

"To be honest, I went down the mountain to travel for the sake of the human race. I feel that my chance lies with the human race."

When Niu Kui heard what Laozi said, he couldn't help but smile, and nodded to Laozi and said, "Everything is destined by fate. The way of heaven has already determined it. That's why I am here waiting for Senior Taiqing."

Hearing that Niu Kui was waiting for him here, Laozi couldn't help but be moved again, "Could it be that this person can see into the future, or know the destiny? No, this is something that only saints can do, how can he do it?" "Could it be that he is the incarnation of the way of heaven, and his purpose is to guide the saints of the prehistoric world to return to their positions? Yes, it is definitely the case, otherwise how could he know that I would come to the human race. After all, when I left Kunlun Mountain, I didn't even tell my two brothers."

Niu Kui never dreamed that Laozi would regard himself as the incarnation of the Way of Heaven. At this moment, he was still thinking about how to enlighten Laozi, so that he could avoid detours and pass down the Golden Elixir Way as soon as possible and establish the Human Religion.

So seeing that Laozi was silent, Niu Kui spoke again: "Since Senior Taiqing is here, please follow me and sit for a while in the cave of the human race. Let me show my hospitality as a host."

Originally, I just wanted to come to the human race to take a look, and now I regard Niu Kui as the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, so naturally I will not refuse Niu Kui's proposal. I nodded and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Niu Kui is so enthusiastic, I will not refuse."

Seeing that Laozi agreed to him, Niu Kui immediately made a gesture of invitation to Laozi, then led the way and took Laozi to the human tribe.

Along the way, Niu Kui did not forget to tell Laozi about the situation of the human race. Especially when he said that although the human race has an innate Taoist body, its body is very weak. Niu Kui's face showed a hint of helplessness and sigh.

At this time, Laozi asked Niu Kui, "I see that Fellow Daoist Niu Kui is no ordinary person, and his cultivation has reached the realm of Hunyuan Jinxian. Since Fellow Daoist Niu Kui cares so much about the human race, why don't you teach the human race the method of cultivation?"

Niu Kui sighed, shook his head and said, "When Goddess Nuwa created humans, she gained the merits of Heaven and became a saint. I have helped Goddess Nuwa a little unintentionally, and I have gained some of the merits of Heaven."

"In order to repay this karma, I promised Goddess Nuwa that I would protect the human race for ten thousand years. At that time, I predicted the future for the human race. I knew that the human race would meet the person who was destined to preach, and that person was not me."

"If I go against the Way of Heaven and preach to the human race without permission, not only will I not be able to help the human race become stronger, but I will also have a huge cause and effect relationship with the people destined by Heaven. This cause and effect alone is enough to make me disappear into ashes."

While Niu Kui was speaking, he did not forget to look at Laozi several times. It was as if he was saying to Laozi, the person I'm talking about is you, you should quickly pass down the Golden Elixir Dao and then establish a human sect. I can also get some merit from the Heavenly Dao.

And Laozi was not an ordinary person, so how could he not understand the hidden meaning in Niu Kui's words. However, Laozi was not in a hurry to make up his mind, but was very concerned about Niu Kui knowing all this.

He then asked Niu Kui directly, "Could it be that Fellow Daoist Niu Kui is also proficient in the art of deduction? I wonder how Fellow Daoist Niu Kui's deduction skills compare to those of Fuxi, the brother of Nuwa?"

In the prehistoric times, everyone knew that the person who was best at deduction was definitely Fuxi. But even Fuxi couldn't deduce the future for a race, so why did Niu Kui dare to say such a thing?

Therefore, Laozi now believes that Niu Kui is the incarnation of the Way of Heaven. Everything he does now is just like guiding Nuwa back then, guiding himself to find the opportunity to prove his way and become a saint.

So at this moment, Laozi is also step by step, trying to get Niu Kui to say something, hoping that Niu Kui can tell him where his opportunity lies as soon as possible, so that he can become the second saint in the prehistoric world besides Hongjun Daozu.
