Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 675 674. This world will be better

"...Your Majesty, you know that if you want to enter enlightenment, you need to pass three tests."

Amidst this warmth rising from the bottom of my heart, the voice of the Fourth Under Heaven, who had been a servant all her life, was far away, as if it came from the sky, and seemed to rise from the bottom of Xiao's heart.

And he didn't know that Xiao Shi didn't know how to practice, so he continued to explain:

"After ordinary ordinary practitioners enter the realm of ease, they are the first pass to realize the Tao. And this pass is called the "Dao Tao."

Looking up at the golden sky, his eyes were almost filled with the golden light above the starry sky:

"Knowing where one's own way is, whether it is to follow the footsteps of the predecessors or to complete the way of heaven. In short, it is necessary to use the enlightened way to enter the room. And the so-called half-step enlightenment is this step. What does heaven and earth mean? Find out the truth that exists in this world, and find the fundamental source of your life. This step seems simple, but in fact... mortals live in this world, running around for hunger, cold and food every day, Live for three meals for your wife, children, old and young. Do you know how to live?... Heh."

A somewhat sarcastic laugh sounded from the night sky:
"It's easier said than done."

"..."

Xiao Shi didn't say a word, but listened quietly.

"And even if you understand it, is it really so easy to let go of the worries around you? Those who have been with you since childhood, or made friends halfway, or never forget them, are just a bunch of threads and messes. Even if So what if you know how to live and understand the rules that you have to implement for the needs of this world? Buddhism in the world has pursued the purity of the six roots for a lifetime, but how many people can really do it?
...So, when faced with a real choice, some people simply can't see clearly, or don't want to read it.And those who can see clearly are people with a firm mind, who can discern, think, understand, and understand regardless of great emotion, great love, great hatred, and great evil.Only such people are qualified to go to the next step. "

The tone of the old-faced Supervisor Zhang Xiang became suddenly lonely.

"And this second test is now. This test is called: "Questioning the Heart". The mind is firm and the conscience is clear. When seeing many incredible things, the spiritual platform is clear. Seeing all kinds of great horrors, the mind is stubborn. It is called asking the heart , asking, is actually more like myself.

Although this servant has never asked other people what is the key to enlightenment and asking the heart, but His Majesty has collected ancient and modern classics, and there are occasional records by experts. Looking at it... the servant finds out that this questioning of the heart is actually only asking about one's own heart.Unbelievable, inconceivable, unlovable, unhateful.All kinds of impossible, but nothing is impossible.

Some people ask their hearts and see their regrets in life.Someone asked the heart, knowing that he had missed the opportunity.Ordinary cultivators can't realize the Tao just by cultivating.If you want to understand the Tao, you need to see, listen, live, and act.A life of cultivation is a life of walking.

On weekdays, I occasionally step on a bug to death with my feet, or stand idly by when I see one party doing something unfair, or see a beautiful woman suddenly look back, or see my parents revived and caring... The way I see is all about asking the heart.Chicheng in my heart, worthy of heaven and earth, will enter the final stage..."

Speaking of this, Huang Xizi's tone showed a trace of mysterious and mysterious Taoist rhyme, which slowly dissipated.

Protecting him by Yang Guang's side, at this moment, the qi of the world around him seemed to be endowed with some special meaning.

I don't die.

Kingship is undefeated.

That was the simplest thought.

But it is also the purest thought that cannot be mixed with any dirty thoughts.

"I am here, and the kingship is here."

"Heaven gave me the mandate!"

"On behalf of the emperor, give power to the world."

"Those who obey the Son of Heaven prosper, those who defy the Son of Heaven...perish!"

Just like the palm of the hand and the back of the hand have yin and yang.

His way is nothing more than a simple way.

This life was given by His Majesty.

Then this life will be His Majesty's shield, sword, horse, and prestige.

Turn your hands for the cloud and cover your hands for the rain.

The Son of Heaven is enlightened and pardons the world.

When the emperor was angry, blood flowed for thousands of miles!
Abandon the ego, the self, and live only according to His Majesty's orders.

This is his way, and it is also the foundation of life.

And in this layer of Dao Yun, who is recognized by the world and holds the handle of the imperial power, his voice slowly sounded:

"The final hurdle is to "establish the way". Ask the heaven and the earth for permission, ask yourself what you can bear, ask the common people if they are willing, and ask the rhyme to open the gate of heaven. Once the gate of heaven is opened, you will stand up for your life. violated.

The Dao is three thousand, unbendable, unbreakable, undamaged, and uncompromising.After clearing the way and asking the heart, establish the way among others, yourself, and all living beings.

So far, enlightenment has been achieved.Day and night change, nothing can be lost.The way of heaven is like drawing a bow!Those who are high suppress it, those who are low raise it, those who have excess damage it, and those who are deficient give it, the way of heaven damages what is excess and makes up for what is deficient..."

To be honest, what Huang Xizi said was beyond Xiao's comprehension.

Although she understands each word separately, it is even more strange to put it together, especially the last paragraph from the "Tao Te Ching"... But thinking about it, it seems that the overview of Tao is correct.

She couldn't understand.

but……

She still captures the main contradiction:
"So, this person hasn't reached the third level yet?"

"Returning to your mother, that's right. After asking your heart, follow the rules of the Tao, and stand in harmony with the Tao, you will truly enter the realm of enlightenment."

"……how long will it take?"

"This……"

Huang Xizi thought for a while, then shook his head:
"It may be for a moment, or for a moment. Or... death, who knows."

Xiao Shi didn't know.

He didn't know either.

Even everyone who has noticed this vision does not know.

But no one left.

The realm of enlightenment, although it is not something that happens once in a hundred years.But for some cultivators, being able to observe is a great opportunity in itself.

Whether it is borrowing or imitating, for others, it is a process of understanding oneself.

But for people like Huang Xizi, it was even easier.

They also want to see...

The opponent's way...

what exactly is it.

……

"For the first emperor! The future generations will be counted, the second generation and the third generation will be passed on to all generations, and it will be passed on endlessly!"

"Ordered by heaven, you will live forever!"

"To unite the six kingdoms, to unite the world!"

"The book is the same text! The car is the same track!"

"Casting the Son of Heaven Sword!"

"Mu Wanmin!"

"Build the Great Wall to town the dragon veins of Kyushu, defend our Great Qin, and protect our country!"

"Where is the fairy?"

"Not to live forever!"

"But the widow is dishonest in body and mind!?"

"Go... go... go..."

"Hehehehahahahahahahaha..."

"Ugh."

"Xu Fu..."

"Go on."

distracting thoughts.

A lot of distracting thoughts.

Endless disturbing thoughts collided and alternated in Li Zhen's mind.

Every time there is a collision, he will hear a sound.

Voices full of emotions.

There is pride and anger.

There are regrets, but also relief.

Even in the end, Li Zhen couldn't tell whether those voices were his own or someone else's.

He always felt that this voice... No, the words were somewhat familiar.

But I can't remember who it is.

He seems to have experienced a lot, and it seems that he has experienced a lot.

But there seems to be no difference between him and himself...

There are more and more voices, more and more noisy, but slowly, gradually... These voices, these are like memories, but they are not memories, but like obsessions and regrets that are left behind and cannot be erased even if they are frustrated , turned into the simplest desire...or desire.

"Can you wish to live forever?"

May wish to live forever.

May I live forever!

May I live forever...

The simplest long-cherished wish hit Li Zhen's mind in the most stubborn way.

Suddenly, he seemed to see a person...

The man's back looks somewhat like himself, but not like himself.

I am him, but not his person.

Standing on the edge of a cliff.

Looking at the vast and endless sea in the east, he was talking to himself, and seemed to be asking himself a question:
"Can you wish to live forever?"

Li Zhen didn't know how to answer.

He didn't even know how to speak.

Just relying on the most instinctive behavior, resisting the answer over and over again.

No matter how many times you ask, you just don't answer.

Because... that's not what he wanted.

And the moment this idea was born, he was immediately wrapped up in a new problem.

what would you like?
what would you like!
What do you want...

what would you like?Wish to live forever?

What are you asking for?May seek longevity?

Why are you stubborn?

Why are you sorry?

Why resist?

Why don't you answer?

Countless kinds of doubts arose from his mind, and in that state of not being aware of himself, he seemed to have found a gap and began to invade his mind.

But Li Zhen did not refuse when faced with these numerous questions.

Ask, just ask.

I don't know what I want either.

Want money?

No.

Want rights?

No.

Want a beauty?

Emmm...

who?

Where?

where?

He Mei?

what eye?

what nose?

what mouth?

Aware of his hesitation, the beauty in his mind was like a flash, different faces, different appearances, looks, different people began to spin endlessly in his mind.

But these people...

None of them.

But what does she look like...

I can't remember it myself.

Then, there is another round of questions.

Why can't I remember?

Why can't I remember?

Thinking about it?
When, where, and where did you see it, what clothes, pants, shoes, and socks...

It's like an unsolvable maze, as long as it can't get an answer, it will keep urging, questioning, and even questioning.

Gradually, there are more and more problems.

It's also getting more complicated.

It seems to have included all the problems in the world, and they are all gathered in Li Zhen's heart at this moment, waiting for the answer.

They are like storms, like sea tides.

Not to mention sweeping everything, but the only correct answer is like a key.

If it cannot be opened, then these problems will hover in this pure spiritual land forever.

But rather...

Li Zhen didn't intend to give any intention.

It's just running wild in my head.

He didn't know what he was thinking. It might be an extension of a certain problem, or it might be that a certain problem just overlapped with another problem. The collision of the two problems seemed to create a new problem.

Then along with this new problem, a whole host of other problems arose.

Even, he once felt that these problems were like cockroaches.

Although there was only one cockroach in the house, in places where it can't be seen, maybe these cockroaches can be counted as nests.

And most people must think about how to deal with it, solve it, and peel it off...

Unfortunately, Li Zhen didn't.

He is like a cold-eyed bystander.

let it live.

let it live!
Dao begets one, one, two, two, three, three, and all things.

Just live.

As a result, more and more problems, more and more complex.

Stormy tornado.

The tide is raging!

It seems that because of his inaction, these problems have been squeezed together, and the internal pressure is increasing, and it seems to continue to be a way to vent.

Unfortunately, Li Zhen refused to give it.

Don't answer a question, don't talk about a question.

The mind is full of random thoughts, and every thought will stir up the situation in all directions.

Layer after layer, there are more and more dense problems.

Finally squeezed into a ball.

He was asking me why the sky is blue.

But he also asked me why the Taoist robes are blue.

How did blue come about?
orange and yellow?
How did that orange come about?
How is yellow produced?
why am i yellow

why are you orange

Don't squeeze!
I came first!

Why did you come first?
Why can't you answer mine first?

……

At this moment, in Li Zhen's mind, it is not clear whether these questions are alive or dead, and it is not clear whether these guesses are his own imagination or the will of some things themselves.

He doesn't think about it at all, he just keeps thinking wildly, he can't figure out a problem, and when he finds that he is getting deeper and deeper, he will think about another problem.And then another question spawns more questions.

Gradually……

The doubts in these storms seemed to exhaust the power of heaven and earth.

However, more and more incomprehensions have turned into endless "inexhaustible", as if the never-ending pi is still extending forward.

then……

Gradually……

The tide is no longer surging.

It turned into an incomparably bloated behemoth. Obviously every drop of water in it is an all-encompassing infinity, but... these infinities are gathered together, squeezed together, and become an ultimate world full of everything in the world. Secret, but there is a sluggish and clumsy existence.

New problems continue to emerge.

But the problems inside have never been resolved.

but……

The world is only so big.

It already made an overwhelmed squishing sound.

The ever-increasing incomprehensions are squeezing the already shrinking living space.

want to stop.

can not stop.

Because there are still problems in the future.

want to go out.

can not go out.

Because...he is the one who really holds the key.

Obviously just answer one question.

Obviously, as long as you answer a question, and follow the question, you will be able to see the source of the whole world!
You will be recognized by us, and we will give you a mission that belongs to you.

why?
Why not?
filled.

extrusion.

flooded.

bulging.

Problems, I felt an indescribable feeling of bloat and suffocation.

If any latecomer can come in at this moment and let them vent, then I am afraid they can get a gratifying relief.

But...but no one came in.

then……

These "problems" finally heard the simplest question:

"It's hard, isn't it?...Why do you want to wrong yourself so much?...Let's break it, how? Let's...be free together."

Ridiculous question.

Ridiculous words.

But rather...

When the question is asked...

All the "problems" found...

seem……

It makes sense.

so crowded...

I broke it...

All the problems, not just...

Not a problem anymore?
then……

The vast sky.

I don't know when it has densely covered the entire sky, illuminating the entire Jiangnan, Qinling, Huaihe, Yangtze River, Yellow River... and even the golden brilliance of all areas...

Suddenly the light shines!
It illuminated the Great Sui Dynasty.

Light up the far north.

Even across mountains and seas, across mountains and mountains...

These rays of light, in the night of this day...

covered everything.

In the east of Zhongzhou, the old man who had just been worried about not being able to write the "Tianhuang Ji" that he was about to write paused.

Further to the east, in front of the tall pyramids, the civilization at its peak is still offering sacrifices to the ancient god of the sun.

Farther east, the Visigoths had only just retaken occupied territories.The fallen corpses of that huge and magnificent empire have not yet been carve up.A sect with a cross in hand is just beginning to conquer Central Europe...

Countless ambitious careerists are also good.

It doesn't matter if you can't sleep at night or you just woke up with your own thoughts.

The old, the powerful, the decayed, the decayed...

Those who pursue power, love punishment, persist in killing, repent of their sins, and wait for redemption...

Whether it is exploring, ignorant, staring, overlooking, acting, waiting...

living,
dead,
Everyone.

They all saw the light that penetrated the entire sky.

And in the light, it seems to be talking to himself, but it seems to be asking and answering to them:

"The world will be good?"

"Yes, it will be better."
