People in Jiejiao practice Taoism and become gods

Chapter 7 [One Says One Means One's Heart, Two Faces and Two Hearts]

Xuanqing originally wanted to go to Shangqing Palace to look for Master Tongtian, but unexpectedly, he came back empty-handed. When he asked the Water and Fire Boy, he found out that the other party had just gone to Taiqing Palace.

Obviously, Taiqing Laozi did not want to see the two brothers quarreling, and wanted to be a peacemaker to ease the conflict between Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu.

"Disciple Xuanqing, begging to see Master Uncle!"

Xuanqing came to the Taiqing Palace with ease. After being led into the palace by Xuandu, he first glanced at Taiqing Laozi, then looked at Tongtian Jiaozhu and Yuanshi Tianzun, and bowed respectfully: "Greetings to the teacher, greetings to the two uncles! May the teacher and the two uncles live forever!"

"No gift!"

Taiqing Laozi nodded slightly: "Yes, Taiyi Jinxian! It just so happens that you are the most reasonable among Tongtian disciples, so you come to judge this matter!"

Xuan Qing was stunned for a moment, then he realized that Master Tai Qing had entrusted the task of reconciling the conflict to him. After thinking carefully for a moment, he said, "Teacher, Second Uncle, it is not worth it to hurt the brotherhood that has lasted for billions of years for such a small matter. Please listen to my words!"

Hearing this, Master Tongtian snorted coldly: "This has nothing to do with you. My disciples made mistakes, so I should punish them. How can I let others do it?"

Yuanshi Tianzun glared at Tongtian Jiaozhu and said, "Tongtian, don't be ungrateful! I am doing this for your own good, but don't you see that your disciples, apart from Duobao and his men, are all monsters and demons?"

"All right!"

Taiqing Laozi frowned slightly, seeming a little annoyed: "I didn't call you two here to listen to you quarreling!"

As an elder brother, how could he not know the tempers of Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu. Yuanshi was arrogant, while Tongtian Jiaozhu was the kind of person who would respond to soft words and not hard ones.

No one is willing to bow!

This has led to the current situation.

Xuan Qing quickly tried to smooth things over, "Teacher, Second Uncle, this is just a dispute between our disciples. There is no need to escalate it to such a level."

He looked at Master Tong Tian and said, "Teacher, teaching everyone is indeed a great act of kindness, but people's hearts are complicated. Some disciples do need some rules to restrain them. Second Uncle Master also has good intentions. My Jie Sect does not have an innate treasure that can suppress the fate. If it is not used by some people with bad intentions, it will ruin the reputation of Jie Sect, which will damage the reputation of Teacher!"

As he spoke, he looked at Yuanshi Tianzun again and said carefully: "Second Uncle, I know you are confused because you are concerned. What you just said to the teacher was just a momentary angry remark!"

Tong Tian Jiaozhu's expression eased a lot after hearing this, but he still said arrogantly: "What do you know?"

As for Yuanshi Tianzun, he showed no emotion, he just stood there quietly.

However, Xuanqing could clearly feel that the vague pressure in Taiqing Palace had dissipated a lot, and a smile appeared on Taiqing's face.

Seeing this, he continued, "Teacher, and Second Uncle, I often get along with Junior Brother Gongming, as well as Junior Sisters Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao, and I know what it means to say one thing and mean another. Junior Brother Gongming is outspoken, and Junior Sister Bixiao is outspoken. Occasionally, there will be some conflicts, but it does not damage the relationship between the siblings. Teacher and Second Uncle are saints, it is impossible that they are less tolerant than a few juniors!"

Upon hearing this, Master Tongtian muttered, "Who is saying one thing and thinking another?"

Of course it's you!
Xuanqing was complaining in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. He just smiled at Taiqing Laozi.

Seeing this, Taiqing Laozi immediately understood and said, "Yes! You two, after so many years of practice, are you not as magnanimous as a few juniors?"

Seeing that someone had given him a way out, Tongtian Jiaozhu stopped being aggressive. Yuanshi Tianzun immediately said, "I am just worried that Tongtian will be dragged down by his disciples, right?"

Tong Tian Jiaozhu saw Yuan Shi Tian Zun bowing his head and said, "This matter is indeed the fault of my disciples. I will discipline them!"

"This is right!"

Taiqing Laozi smiled and said: "We have been friends for billions of years, can I still let the young generation make a fool of myself?"

To be honest, Yuanshi and Tongtian had often quarreled before, and he had been a peacemaker many times, but now it seems that Xuanqing is also a good candidate. He also knows that there are differences in the concepts of the Tao between the two, and someone is needed to mediate, so he asked Xuanqing to judge the matter.

Now it seems that he was not wrong about the person!

Although Xuanqing was not suitable for his way of inaction, he was very good at observing people's words and expressions. With just a few words, he found a way out for Yuanshi and Tongtian.

Thinking of this, he immediately said to Master Tongtian earnestly: "Tongtian, it is good to teach everyone, but you can't accept everyone!"

Then, he looked at Yuanshi Tianzun and said, "Yuanshi, don't be so aggressive. If a disciple of Tongtian makes a mistake, it should be punished by him as the teacher!"

"Yes!"

Both of them nodded.

Just as Xuanqing said, as saints, how could they not understand this truth? The reason they quarreled was just to save their own face.

Yuanshi Tianzun did have good intentions, but he used the wrong method, which ultimately backfired.

Tongtian also knew where his problem lay. The reason he refused to admit his mistake was that he felt that what Yuanshi Tianzun said was a little too disrespectful to him.

These two people are both hypocritical, inconsistent and extremely contradictory.

After joking around for a while, Taiqing Laozi finally said seriously, "Tongtian, have you thought about how to test and teach your disciples, and how to prevent people with bad intentions from sneaking into Jiejiao?"

"This……"

Patriarch Tongtian didn't know how to answer. For a moment, he really hadn't figured it out. The doctrine of teaching without distinction was destined to make the Jiejiao accept many disciples.

Seeing this, Xuan Qing immediately said, "I do have a plan to help you, Master. However, I need Second Uncle to lend me a magic weapon!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun showed a hint of curiosity: "Just tell me!"

Xuan Qing bowed and said, "I heard from Junior Brother Yu Ding that Second Uncle has a treasure called the Jade Void Glazed Lamp. There is a divine fire in the lamp called the 'Karma-Cleansing Golden Fire', which can detect all spirits and reflect the cause and effect karma! I want to use the power of this treasure to test the disciples in the sect every hundred years. Those with heavy karma will be expelled directly from Jiejiao. As for those who have made mistakes and have a repentant heart, they will be suppressed under the Qilin Cliff for ten thousand years as a punishment!"

Then, he added: "Of course, it would be even better if the two uncles could give the teacher some advice, set some rules, and constrain the words and deeds of the disciples!"

Xuanqing can give some opinions on the matters of religious rules, but he cannot make them. Firstly, he is not strong enough and does not have enough prestige. Secondly, Jiejiao was founded by Tongtian. If he makes religious rules, it would be like meddling in other people's business and he would be unnecessarily involved in unbearable consequences.

For example, if a certain religious rule is inappropriate and causes karmic consequences, that cause and effect will be counted on him, and his small body will not be able to bear it.

If it was decided by Master Tongtian, then as the master and the saint of heaven, he has the final right of interpretation, and some cause and effect are also within his tolerance.

"good!"

Taiqing Laozi nodded.

Yuanshi Tianzun also affirmed Xuanqing's idea: "This is a good idea. The Yuxu Liuli Lamp is useless to me, so I will give it to Tongtian Judao's disciples!"
