Chapter 1777: Small Family, Big Country, How to Choose (16)

Chapter 1777 A small family but a big country, how to choose (1/6)

Ning Chen's heart was suspended in the air.

However, there seems to be an invisible wall around him that cannot be penetrated no matter how hard he hits it. Even the sound cannot penetrate this wall, so he can only watch what is going on below.

Down there, in the village.

However, Ning Chenxin could see that there was another "Ning Chenxin" who was almost the same as him, still standing there and continuing to do what he wanted to do next.

What is going on?

What did Xuying mean just now?

If you have any questions, just ask.

"Senior, what does this mean?"

The phantom figure gradually solidified, and an old man gradually appeared in the world.

The old man appeared during the previous test of human nature.

The old man put his hands in his wide sleeves and chuckled: "I just want you to see what the outcome of your choice will be. After reading the ending, I don't know if your Taoist heart will be shaken." That’s all.”

Ning Chenxin frowned and said, "Is this an illusion?"

The old man smiled, "Is the illusion that important? If you want to get the answer that this is just an illusion, even if many people will die in the end, you will feel less guilty. If you use this reason to escape, then you What is the use of this path of cultivation? This is true for both Buddhism and Confucianism. To cultivate a person, you must first cultivate your heart.”

Hearing this, the fog in Ning Chenxin's eyes seemed to be dispelled and she looked clearer. She couldn't help but bow to the old man and said, "Thank you, senior. It's the junior who has taken care of me."

"Don't rush to thank me yet." The old man glanced at Ning Chenxin and said with a slight smile, "I haven't said this is an illusion yet."

Ning Chenxin's expression froze.

The old man smiled and said: "Others may be illusions, but yours is reality. This is somewhere east of the Chaos Realm."

Seeing Ning Chenxin's frozen expression, the old man sneered in his heart.

hehe.

You can count on me to control you. Who asked you little bastards to torture me crazily during the test... Well, although the person in front of you didn't do those things, it doesn't stop them from being brothers in the same sect!

As for the others... there is nothing we can do to punish them for the time being!

Ning Chenxin looked down and said seriously: "What if it really develops into a bad place?"

The old man spread his hands and said in a light tone, without the slightest concern: "You can develop as you want. Whether the ending is happy for everyone or tens of millions of living beings die as their soldiers said, it is your own choice."

Speaking of which.

The old man's figure suddenly appeared in front of Ning Chenxin. Looking at Ning Chenxin's somewhat ugly face, he revealed a smile that looked peaceful but could see through everything, and whispered: "Don't think that you can control it." Everything, at least you can't do it now.

All choices in the world are accompanied by two sides. Choosing one side means giving up the other side. Otherwise, why is it called a choice? "

Ning Chenxin frowned, and his eyes fell on the village. Under the persuasion of another "Ning Chenxin", the ten soldiers took the whole village away and returned to the city wall.

It was obviously developing according to what he thought, but why was the uneasiness in his heart growing?

The old man understood what Ning Chen was thinking and said calmly: "Keep reading and see what the outcome of your choice will be. You don't know, and I don't know either."

"This is real, and when the time comes, it will also be real for innocent people to live and die." Ning Chenxin said with a serious face.

The old man glanced at Ning Chenxin and said, "Do you want to say that you can save them? Or do you want me to save them?

Not to mention whether I still have the energy, people die all the time in the world. In addition to normal birth, old age, illness and death, more deaths in this monastic world are for power, for profit, for cultivation, and there are also sects. Died in the war between dynasties.

This kind of thing happens all the time, do you have to take care of it all? "

Ning Chen was speechless.

He doesn't have this ability.

Master also said that no one can do this, not even him.

Neither of them spoke anymore.

They all focused their gazes below, and the flow of time did not speed up, but the scenes below kept switching like a quick glance at the scenery.

The enemy's iron hooves stepped across the grassland like blue waves, crushing the inconspicuous village into pieces.

The enemy's strength is obviously stronger than the garrison on the city wall.

"Ning Chenxin" below also took action.

But the other party was more prepared. It seemed that they had foreseen this possibility, or that they valued this city very seriously, so they sent a more powerful force to attack the city!

I don’t know how many days have passed.

Under Ning Chenxin's pale face, the city wall collapsed.

The enemy's groups of cavalry rushed into the city with scythes. Wherever they passed, the walls fell to the ground, and the living lives were cut down like grass.

This also includes the villagers in the village.

Soon after.

Just as those soldiers said, with the collapse of this city, the surrounding cities were not spared, and were all occupied by the enemy.

Ning Chen watched this scene with his heart in the sky, his expression heavy and his eyes a little erratic.

The surrounding aura... is also shaky, as if it will collapse if touched casually!

The old man looked at this scene, put his hands in his sleeves, and said calmly: "It seems that your choice is wrong."

Ning Chenxin raised his head and looked at the old man, his face was pale, and he laughed bitterly and said: "But... are we going to let those villagers be used as human bombs?"

The old man raised his eyebrows and said: "If it were me, I would naturally choose to save those villagers. After all, if it were me, those villagers have done me some favors and have some causal connection with me. As for the dynasty? What do their lives have to do with me?"

"Of course, I will save someone I know."

At this point, the old man looked at Ning Chenxin and smiled: "So your choice is not wrong, it just depends on whether you can pass the test in your heart."

Ning Chenxin fell into deep thought.

The choice is not wrong?

Is it really not wrong?

The choice just now, to put it simply, is not willing to give up either side, and want to save both sides.

To put it more broadly, isn't this also a choice between a small family and a big country?

Seeing Ning Chenxin lost in thought, the old man did not disturb him. He just sat cross-legged quietly beside him, looking up into the air, and murmured, "I didn't expect that person's will would choose him, but... his idea seems a little dangerous."

Ning Chenxin did not hear this.

Now Ning Chenxin's thoughts seem to be stuck in a dead end, and he can't jump out of it no matter what.

Save the small family and give up the big country?

Save the big country and give up the small family?

How to choose?

After making the choice, how to get through the hurdle in your heart?
