The oil of the pine trees was burning in the brazier and small flames burst out from time to time.

After Liu Xiyi complained, he didn't say anything again, and waited quietly like a student who answered the questions and waited for the teacher to comment.

The old man did not comment immediately, stared at the book, but he did not turn the pages for a long time.

After a long time, the old man turned his attention from the pages to Liu Xiyi.

The old man's eyes were gentle, kind, profound and distant, which made Liu Xiyi feel a little nervous.

"You also think Lu Chenlong is not suitable"? The old man's tone was plain, and the tone was aggravated on the word "ye".

Liu Xiyi looked down at the brazier slightly, avoiding the old man's gaze.

"The old man's eyes are like a torch, but what I am worried about is not just Lu Chenlong himself, but the reactions of others."

The old man asked, "Then do you think there is anyone other than Lu Chenlong?"

Liu Xiyi frowned slightly and remained silent.

The old man did not urge him and waited patiently for his answer.

After a while, Liu Xiyi raised his head, hesitated for a moment, and said tentatively: "How about Xia Bin?"

The old man smiled and said, "Look, you don't even have the confidence to yourself."

The old man asked: "What do you think I am relying on to control the entire organization?"

Liu Xiyi blurted out without thinking: "The old man is the founder of the organization, and has given countless oppressed people faith and ideals. The old man is a martial arts master who has never been before and has never come. He has taught almost every master in the organization. The old man has no distinction. Many of us have made mistakes. It is you who taught us and gave us a second life."

Liu Xiyi wanted to continue, but the old man raised his hand to interrupt.

"From ancient times, there was no martial artist who could really grasp the overall situation. Xiang Yu's strength and energy were still the only one who ended up committing suicide in the Wujiang River. Even a turbulent family like Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang could not put it down during the battle. In the end, he was not a scholar, but he was even a scholar."

The old man waved the book on his hand, "The only one who controls the world is always the scholars, because many of the principles in this world can only be understood by scholars."

The old man paused, "Of course, nerds who read books hard are not strictly scholars. They are more like robots. They can only read books with a brain-loaded body like repeaters."

The old man continued: "Many people think that Lu Chenlong is a martial artist, but under his rough appearance, he has a sharp and profound soul. Otherwise, how could he instigate Chen Su?"

The old man paused for a moment, "Although he is not a professional scholar, he has a father who is well-educated, and he learned no less than in school. The first thing he did when he went to Tianjing was to study in Tianjing, and it can be seen that his understanding of reading is much deeper than most people."

Liu Xiyi looked at the old man in surprise. He had thought more than once on this issue, but he said that his thinking was limited to loyalty, faith, and ability, and he had never thought about it in this direction. And deep down he did not agree with the old man's statement. In his opinion, the people who read books were to learn knowledge and skills, but knowledge and skills were not necessarily only from books.

When you go to school, you can also learn practical experience.

The old man seemed to see Liu Xiyi's doubts and said: "Many things can be learned in practice, or basically they can be learned in practice. However, practice without theoretical support will inevitably know the reason but not the reason."

"Only theory but no practice will take it for granted, only practice but no theoretical thinking, and without knowing why, it will only be self-confidence and cannot break through."

The old man sighed lightly, "I have a deep influence on you, so you think that as long as you do what I said, you will not be wrong. If any of you take over my position, you will only learn to be the second me intentionally or unintentionally."

Liu Xiyi shook his head inexplicably, "You are the spiritual belief of the organization. Isn't it the most important thing to uphold your will?"

The old man smiled slightly, "Nothing in this world is unchanging. If there is, it is change. Only change is unchanging. If you cannot know the truth, you will blindly follow it and become dogmatism. Doctrine will sooner or later be abandoned by the times."

The old man looked at Liu Xiyi kindly and said, "What I am doing now is right, not because what I said is the truth, but because it happens to be at the right time. If you change the background of the times, is it still right?"

Liu Xiyi lowered his head and said nothing, vaguely he felt that the old man's words were right, but he still felt that the old man's ideas would always be right.

The old man said lightly: "Any truth has its scope of application, and it is only right at the right time and place. Just like Newton's classical mechanics is right on the earth, but if it is put into the universe, it is outrageously wrong."

Liu Xiyi looked up at the old man, "I understand what the old man means. What you mean is that Lu Chenlong knows it. Compared with other people in the organization, only he will not be bound by your will. If one day the times change, only he can break through the original barriers and seek change."

The old man nodded with satisfaction, "You are right. If the so-called survival of the fittest one day, if the times change one day in the future, only he is more likely to continue the organization."

Liu Xiyi shook his head slightly, "But it is this variable that will bring unpredictable dangers to the organization."

The old man smiled slightly, "You are already in a state of half-step transformation of qi. The world has yin and yang, the sun and the moon have reincarnation. Rewards and risks have always coexist. There is no good thing in the world that has the best of both worlds, and no absolute solution."

Liu Xiyi was silent for a long time and said slowly: "I can understand these words from the old man, but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.

The old man smiled disapprovingly and tapped the book on his hand with his fingers, "When you look at the history of mankind, you write about one thing, do you know what it is?"

Liu Xiyi looked at the old man and said, "Please give me advice."

"Kill"!

Speaking of these two words, the old man's kind eyes involuntarily revealed a faint murderous aura.

"Killing for power".

The old man said slowly: "From the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, to the Qin unification of the world, to the Han Dynasty replacing Qin, to the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

An invisible majesty was revealed in the old man, "The cold history tells us a cruel fact

,The peace of the world and the progress of mankind are all created by killing, and all heroes are great because of killing."

Liu Xiyi opened his mouth slightly in surprise, "What do you mean,,,,"?

The old man picked up the book again, "Didn't you just say that Lu Chenlong's situation is small? You were wrong. He was not a small situation, but he lacked a killing heart. The reason why their Lu family failed repeatedly was because they lacked a killing heart."

The old man looked a little dazed and murmured: "Ability, origin, position, Lu Chenlong lacks nothing, but this heart of killing. He has not yet understood the true meaning of a general's success, nor has he been able to understand the true meaning of killing. The two words "kill" are not synonyms for cruelty and evil, but are essential weapons to create the future and protect their ideals."

A thought flashed through Liu Xiyi's mind, was it the old man who deliberately used Chen Su's death to inspire Lu Chenlong's killing intention?

The old man turned his head and looked at Liu Xiyi and said lightly: "Have Xia Bing found you?"

Liu Xiyi nodded, "He not only found me, but also went to find Ma Juan, Xu Jiang and others."

The old man looked dull, without any surprise, and seemed to have expected it.

"Since ancient times, there has been no blood in the handover of power. Instead, the handover of power without blood lacks stability after the struggle. This is not all a bad thing. If you don't break or establish, I am optimistic about Lu Chenlong, but if he wants to get on the throne smoothly, he must break before establishing it."

Before Liu Xiyi came, he thought the old man would be furious, but he didn't expect that he would react so dullly. He understood what the old man meant by breaking and then establishing, which was to use his blood to stimulate the killing spirit that Lu Chenlong lacked.

Instead of feeling heartbroken by this, he felt that the old man's pattern was so big that it was far beyond ancient and modern times. For the ideals and beliefs of the organization, sacrifice was inevitable and necessary. Even if it was his own people, Lu Chenlong was indeed a small pattern.

"I don't know what they will do."

The old man said lightly: "They dare not touch Lu Chenlong under my nose. As for Lu Shanmin, with his current martial arts realm and experience in the martial arts world, it is difficult to do anything."

Liu Xiyi nodded, "When it comes to Lu Shanmin, after killing the spy before, he killed two more waves of people we sent to Changchun."

"Is that true?" The old man smiled slightly, "It seems that his son knows better what killing is than he does."

Liu Xiyi said slowly, "I want to cover up the truth. I am worried that this kid is doing something big in secret. We didn't get any news about his trip to Changchun, and we didn't even know what people he met and did in Changchun."

The old man frowned slightly. He did not blame his subordinates for their poor work. He reached the realm of Lu Shanmin and Hai Dongqing, and was also a veteran of experienced Taoists in the world. With intentional defense, it was indeed difficult to grasp their every move.

"Our principle in doing things is to not miss any one-tenth of risk. Now we are at the critical moment of closing the Internet. Since you are worried, just take some precautions."

Liu Xiyi nodded, "Just count the time, it's time for him and Hai Dongqing to go back to Tianjing. Now the East China Sea is completely under our control. My initial idea is to lure the tiger away from the mountain and let the East China Sea find a way to temporarily lead him back."
