2121. Can trust be continued?

Tathagata did not ask Orochimaru for any details about Liu Hao, and he did not even have the intention of entering the river of time to see anything.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but he knows that there are some things that he cannot do. This is a necessary respect for a monk who is stronger than himself.

 But from the moment Liu Hao glanced at him today, Tathagata could guess that Liu Hao valued Orochimaru, and it was indeed worth Liu Hao's regard.

Tathagata didn’t know that the reason why he gave Orochimaru this characterization was actually an exploration that was completely different from metaphysics and science.

  Orochimaru is a monk, but he is a scientist at heart.

 Any scientist and any exploration are essentially to unravel the unknown.

 At this point, it is similar to that of metaphysicians.

 The difference lies in the verification after solving the unknown.

The scientist's verification is data, and it is the accumulation of countless data that makes him nod.

On the other hand, the metaphysician is different. He only needs to understand the law and then master it. The amount of data in it is of no significance to him.

 This aspect is also the one where Tathagata and Orochimaru quarrel the most, and it seems that no one can convince the other.

 It cannot be said that any one of them is wrong. On the contrary, both of them are correct, but they just look at the problem from different angles.

For example, when a heavy rain occurs, scientists will give various explanations, such as the collision of cold waves and warm currents, forming frontal rain.

As for metaphysicians, they will pursue the dragon king who sends out the cold wave.

 They will all use this observation to pursue how to make rainfall.

However, if there is a better method of rainfall, most metaphysicians will not continue to delve deeper and will turn around to study more advanced methods. However, scientists always want to thoroughly analyze frontal rainfall and dig into countless data.

In the eyes of metaphysicians, these are a waste of time. Wouldn’t it be better if you know how to use them? Isn’t it enough to understand how the rules work? If you can use this rule to do it at any time, wouldn't it be OK?

A person with a cultivation level like Tathagata is still a metaphysician after all, but compared with ordinary metaphysicians, he understands the benefits of these data better. Isn't this also the underlying law of the world's operation?

 There is nothing wrong with being more precise.

 This is the true value of Orochimaru in the eyes of Tathagata.

He understood that if scientists like Orochimaru were given unlimited time, they would be able to thoroughly study the nature of everything.

 But infinite time, is it possible?

Even with the Tathagata's current cultivation level, he cannot guarantee that he will have unlimited time. That is something that only saints dare to clarify.

This seems paradoxical. For a saint who has attained enlightenment and has had infinite time, isn’t the so-called science clear and transparent to him at a glance?

 In the eyes of the Tathagata, this path may be feasible, but it is nothing more than that. It is really not a great road.

 No, it’s because scientists are always willing to use external objects. For example, after clarifying the rules, they use tools to achieve their goals. Isn’t that already a sideways approach?

 However, his words could not convince Orochimaru.

 This is the biggest difference between Tathagata and Orochimaru.

There is a saying that goes like this: It is enough to have a confidant in life. The real meaning of this sentence is not that you need someone who understands you, but that you need a like-minded person.

Having such a person will give you a communicable and tacit understanding partner on the road you are walking on, and you will support each other and grow together along the way.

This is true, but having such a companion is often not as good as having an ‘opponent’ who has completely different choices from you.

  Orochimaru, before Tathagata has fully understood his own path, he can still be called an ‘opponent’.

 Now in the eyes of Tathagata, it still has some value.

Similarly, this value will disappear soon, and of course, by then, Tathagata will not burn bridges.

 But at that time, Orochimaru's real test will come. From being able to influence Tathagata, to being completely unable to influence Tathagata, to conversely, he is likely to be affected by Tathagata.

It is very difficult to say whether Orochimaru at that time could withstand Tathagata's "transformation".

“Will there really be an Orochimaru Bodhisattva?”

 Liu Hao murmured something in his mouth, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his face looked even weirder.

 He had complicated thoughts. He seemed to really want to see such a situation, and he felt very uncomfortable for Orochimaru.

Is it really possible for this proud guy to get from one horn to another?

Liu Hao knew that if Orochimaru was really 'transformed' by the Tathagata, it meant that Orochimaru might really become a quasi-sage in one step.

 This is entirely a good thing, but in this case, it will be equally difficult for Orochimaru to come out after entering.

Liu Hao saw the possibility, but did not stop it. The reason was that he was sure in his heart that if Orochimaru was really saved by Tathagata in the future, he would be sure to pull him out.

He knew that Orochimaru would be extremely irritable at that time, being led by others, and still ignorant. He thought that he was walking on the right path, and thought that this was really his choice. How could Orochimaru tolerate being so proud? , will definitely hate Tathagata to the sky, right?

 He ​​must also admit that he really wanted to see the appearance of Orochimaru Bodhisattva. Whether he had a bad taste or wanted to watch this big show, these were the reasons why he did not stop him immediately.

He knew better that if he didn't stop it immediately, it meant that he wouldn't stop it.

 “This seems to be good too!”

 Liu Hao comforted himself. Only he knew best whether he was convincing himself or something else.

 But one thing must also be admitted, that is, if Orochimaru is allowed to go on his own, not to mention becoming a quasi-sage, but also a Daluo Jinxian, Liu Hao is a little worried about it.

 Orochimaru, who is not the top talent in the world of Naruto, is really not the top among all the worlds in terms of talent and luck.

 He ​​was able to reach where he is today, not to mention the big reason, half of the reason is because Orochimaru followed the right person in the early stage, that is, it has a lot to do with Liu Hao. In sharp contrast to him is Jiraiya.

Since returning to the world of Naruto, this guy is still sitting at the base near the world of Naruto. He has gained the peace of keeping his family, but he has also fallen behind the times.

Jiraiya, it seems, has just returned to his hometown, back to the farmland where he works hard.

But similarly, in that rural land, everything around us is backward. It may be okay at first, but it will soon be abandoned by the ever-changing times. To put it bluntly, it is really difficult to keep up with the times.

As the hub of all heavens and worlds, Liu Hao’s cultivation system on earth has been improving, and the place where it can be most perfected must be the place where the most masters of cultivation gather;

These people will not return to their hometown. Doesn’t everyone need to be at the forefront and go through dangers and vicissitudes?

 You are leisurely in the countryside, as if everything has nothing to do with you, but the information you get is bound to be several steps behind others.

 In other words, the latest news you got may have been spread by others for several years before it spread to your hometown.

 Fashion trends have nothing to do with you, or what you think is the trend is actually the trend in big cities a few years ago.

Even by the time it reaches your ears, it is already specious, completely out of shape, and completely different.

 You have worked hard to research and spent countless hours on it, and the results are likely to make people laugh.

This is the most depressing thing, and it is also difficult to avoid.

This is why the monks in those small places, even if they know that there are many dangers ahead, even if they know that after changing the map, everything will need to start again, or even start from scratch, but most of them still grit their teeth and face the difficulties. superior?

 Don’t they know that they can become emperors by staying in their hometown?

 Don’t they know that after they choose this path, they may never return?

They knew it very well, but they still made the choice. Didn’t the sentence "If you hear the truth in the morning and die in the evening" already explained everything?

Jiraiya, to put it mildly, means that he cannot let go of his hometown, but to put it worse, it means that he has lost the motivation to move forward.

 He has transformed from a heroic Jiraiya into a housekeeping dog.

In the future, given enough time for Jiraiya, this guy is likely to reach the position of Taiyi Golden Immortal. Those with better luck can also touch the edge of Daluo, but that's all.

 In terms of talent and luck, this guy is even inferior to Orochimaru.

 From another perspective, he has given up his future and used his future to pave the way for the backers of the Naruto world.

With the return of this guy, the number of people in the Naruto world who went all the way to Dragon Country's Australian base has indeed increased, and the rate has increased.

In other words, Jiraiya's presence in major bases near the world of Naruto has ensured the safety of the ninjas who come from the world of Naruto to experience in these bases.

 Give them more time to grow, and the results will naturally be infinitely better than before.

But what Jiraiya didn't know was that most of these ninjas who were able to arrive at the Dragon Country's Australian base to continue their training because of his blessing would not have much future in the future.

No one can guarantee whether there is profit or loss here, but in Liu Hao's view, it is not a cost-effective thing.

 Because most of the future heights of these ninjas who have been blessed by Jiraiya will not even be able to reach the immortal level. The total number of ten thousand cannot reach the height that Jiraiya himself may reach.

He is a famous teacher in the world of Naruto, but after entering the heavens, what does this educational ability mean?

It is still unknown whether his fixed thinking mode can still keep up with the era of all heavens and worlds.

 At least, Liu Hao could not see any future for those ninjas who were able to reach the Australian base of the Dragon Kingdom because of Jiraiya's blessing.

  It seems that it is nothing more than adding a little population to the Dragon Kingdom's Australian base, and in the future it will just be some more qualified cannon fodder.

 But isn’t all this a matter of one’s own choice?

This guy who likes wandering around in the world of Naruto is the most home-loving. This is also his character. He and Orochimaru are really not partners on the same path at all.

At first, why did Liu Hao choose Orochimaru at a glance? Perhaps at that time, he had already vaguely sensed it.

Now it seems that the trust Liu Hao put in Orochimaru is worth it, but I don’t know if the trust given to Orochimaru can still be continued?

But it must also be stated that relying on Tathagata's 'degree transformation' is indeed the best way. Catalyzing Orochimaru's progress is also a strategy of using Tathagata's luck.

Liu Hao retracted his gaze from Tathagata and Orochimaru, and shook his head leisurely, because he knew that this might be the only way for Orochimaru to continue climbing.

Even if Orochimaru is accepted, no one can deny that everything Orochimaru has done in the past belongs to the devil.

Even though he has restrained himself countless times after following Liu Hao, the essence of the demonic path has not changed at all.

 Orochimaru is very egotistical, extremely egotistical. In order to achieve his goal, people simply disdain the so-called means, saying that there are no taboos.

 Why did he leave the research institute specially established for him at the Australian base of Longguo?

 Isn’t it because he can’t do anything without taboos here?

 He chose to return to the territory of his third brother, so it was inevitable that he would meet Tathagata?

The demonic path and the Buddhist path are two sides of the same coin. The so-called "put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately" is a summary of the transition from the demonic path to Buddhism. Becoming a Buddha immediately shows that after entering the Buddhist path from the demonic path, the progress is also a leap-forward.

 The converse is also true. The Wutian Buddha in the prehistoric world today is the biggest case.

If Orochimaru is truly saved by the Tathagata, in Buddhist terms, he will be able to wash away the dust, return to his true nature, and achieve the status of Bodhisattva.

In the future, if Orochimaru can become a demon again from Bodhisattva and release the true nature of Orochimaru, using the two-dimensional cultural explanation, the blackening will be ten times stronger.

 It is impossible to say that Orochimaru at that time really had the cultivation level of a quasi-sage.

 Faced with such a possible outcome, what’s the point of being more dangerous?

Which path requires no risk? If you want to get better, you have to pay more. Hasn't it always been this way since ancient times?

 What's wrong with giving Orochimaru a little trust?

 In the future, when he has attained enlightenment and sees that Orochimaru is still addicted to him, the worst thing he can do is take action.

 Besides, Liu Hao is not Orochimaru. Who knows whether he will be converted in the future because of his own will? Is it possible that people like the status of Orochimaru Bodhisattva?

 When outsiders help others choose, even if it is the most correct, it is just what you think. From the moment you forcefully help others choose, you have actually embarked on the wrong path.

 Liu Hao is unwilling to do this, and there is no need to do so.

  Orochimaru is his subordinate, but that’s all. He is not his children or siblings.

Just like Eagle Eye, after that guy went to the Perfect World, it seemed as if there was no news anymore, as if there was no such person anymore. Didn't Liu Hao choose to wait? (End of chapter)
