Song Xing: I am cultivating immortals in Qingcheng Mountain

Chapter 23 Observing the Desert and Enlightening the Tao

"Brother Zhao, what are you looking at?"

In a carriage on the ancient road, Lei Wujie asked curiously.

Since the few of them left the ruined temple before, Zhao Huafan spoke very little, and he didn't stay with Xiao Se and the others in the carriage, but drove with him outside.

"The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is much more beautiful than this desert!!"

Zhao Huafan did not turn around, but leaned against the carriage, his eyes fell on the desert in the distance, on the ancient road, on the decayed mushroom stones, broken statues, and piles of bones after being eroded by the wind .

Lei Wujie nodded.

"Yeah!! It's a desert at a glance. At the beginning, it felt a little different, but after a long time, it felt a little desolate!!"

Zhao Huafan hummed, most people saw this kind of scene almost like this, so there is nothing to say.

"Then have you ever thought about what kind of scene it was before this endless desert became what it is now?"

Lei Wujie scratched his head and shook his head, why think about those things?

"You should have seen the reclining Buddha before, right?"

Zhao Huafan did not continue this sentence, but said the next sentence.

On the side of the ancient road, there is a huge reclining Buddha lying on its side. It is tall and majestic, like a mountain. Looking at the people passing by the ancient road, it seems to be in the audience.

Lei Wujie thought for a while and said, "It's so big, it feels like we become very small when we pass by it!!"

Hearing this, Zhao Huafan laughed.

"Small!!"

"Compared to this world, no one is insignificant. In the long river of time, no one is insignificant!! Thinking about it this way, in fact, in the rivers and lakes, in the temples, who wins and who loses does not seem to be so important!"

Hearing this, Lei Wujie scratched his head.

"Can't understand!!"

Zhao Huafan didn't get bored, and continued, "In today's world, Brother Lei, do you know who has the highest martial arts? The strongest??"

Although Lei Wujie didn't understand what Zhao Huafan meant, he replied honestly: "Master said he was a Jiuxian, but I haven't seen it!"

Although Zhao Huafan knew that the strongest person in this Jianghu was not Jiuxian—— Baili Dongjun, he did not reveal the truth, and then he continued to ask: "Then do you know who was the strongest in this Jianghu a hundred years ago?"

Lei Wujie frowned, this question was a bit tricky, not to mention him, maybe even Xiao Se didn't know it!

"Horse dealer, a hundred years ago, who was the strongest in the Jianghu?"

Adhering to the good habit of asking when he doesn't understand, Lei Wujie came up with a tactical back, poked his head into the carriage, and asked aloud.

Xiao Se sighed, he probably guessed what Zhao Huafan meant, so he replied aloud.

"This question makes no sense!!"

Lei Wujie chuckled, "You don't know, do you!!"

Xiao Se gave him an annoyed look, let alone 100 years, three to fifty years later, maybe the newcomers in the arena may forget what happened before.

"I really don't know, but I guess the one with the surname Zhao doesn't know either. If you don't believe me, ask!!"

Lei Wujie exerted force on his waist, and his whole body bounced up, looking at Zhao Huafan who was beside him.

"Brother Zhao??"

"Indeed, I don't know either!!"

Zhao Huafan didn't deny it, because he really didn't know either.

Then he continued: "So this is what I mean. Compared with this vast river of time, we are all small, insignificant. I read a man's Fu, and he said, what is floating like, heaven and earth A sand gull, I don’t know if it feels like this now!!”

"What does Piao Piao look like, the world is a sand gull~~"

When Xiao Se heard this, he was a little surprised. The charm revealed by Zhao Huafan's words was very consistent with his own experience at this time, as if it was tailor-made, he couldn't help repeating it again.

Tang Lian was a little surprised. Now he probably knew why Xiao Se said that. Undoubtedly, the young man outside the carriage was really interesting.

This kind of insight that can penetrate the world of mortals is not something that ordinary people can penetrate, or even if they do, they may not be able to achieve it. Life is short, and it is natural to pursue fame and fortune. With no interest at all, wouldn't life be too boring and monotonous?

"Then according to Brother Zhao, wouldn't it be meaningless for me to be famous all over the world now?"

Lei Wujie is pure in nature, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed when he heard this.

Hearing this, Xiao Se couldn't help feeling a little strange in his heart. Compared with the Jianghu, the height of the temple and the distance of the Jianghu seem to be not that big. No one in the world a hundred years ago knows No. 1 now. It seems that not many people will have an impression of Zuo Chaotang!
Tang Lian almost felt sorry for her, because what the other party said was the truth, not some fake empty words, but it was exactly the same, which made him feel depressed in his heart.

Seeing that Lei Wujie was downcast, Zhao Huafan couldn't help laughing.

"What are you talking about!! I don't mean that! I'm talking about seeing the true meaning of things from the appearance, and only by not being fascinated by external objects can we go further!!"

When Lei Wujie heard Zhao Huafan's words, he couldn't help raising his head again, and looked at the other party. What the other party said was too realistic. Facing the sharp knife of time, who can do it!

Zhao Huafan put his eyes on the thousand-year-old path again, and said softly: "There is a saying in Buddhism, all appearances are false!"

Lei Wujie was still scratching his head, his master was Lei Hong, he was a savage, his brain was full of muscles, this kind of words were almost like heavenly scriptures to him!
"Buddhist??"

When Xiao Se heard this, his eyes narrowed. Zhao Huafan also told him a fable before, which was also from the Buddhist school.

"The surname is Zhao, what do you think?"

Zhao Huafan said softly: "I forgot about things, but I can get a glimpse of the truth!"

"."

Hearing these specious words, he said something in a bleak voice.

"You goddamn stick!!"

The good atmosphere was ruined by Xiao Se's words.

The corner of Tang Lian's mouth twitched, and she remained silent. To be honest, he suddenly had the feeling of seeing a magic stick.

When Zhao Huafan heard the other party's words, he didn't pay any attention to them. There are three thousand ways in the world, all of which can be seen to be true martial arts, to prove Bodhi. The way is there. Seeing it, knowing it, and then learning it is enough.

As for the others, does it matter?It doesn't seem to matter that much.

The carriage returned to calm again. Lei Wujie had an exquisite heart and was not affected by Xiao Se. Instead, he began to think about Zhao Huafan's words, because he felt that those words were not only pleasant to hear, but also seemed to contain the profound meaning of martial arts.

Zhao Huafan stretched out his hand to look closely at the lines on his palm, and murmured, "I forget both things, and all dharmas return to the truth. I want you not to forget!"

At this moment, in his purple mansion, the breath surged out like an open reservoir, exactly the same as when he realized the meaning of the first sword "injustice".

After two months, after traveling through the world of mortals, Zhao Huafan realized his second sword in this vicissitudes of life.

The name of the sword - don't forget.
