Avenue Secret

Chapter 25 On the Tao
Liu Li's eyes drifted away, as if recalling thousands of past events, and the complex emotions in his eyes were covered by sunglasses. After hearing Song Sanyue's question, he looked out the floor-to-ceiling windows of the coffee shop and did not answer immediately.

Mainly, he hasn't compiled it yet.

Liu Li sighed long and long, and asked instead: "Miss Song, what do you think is Tao?"

Song Sanyue said: "I am very interested in the concept of 'Tao' in your country, but I don't know much about it. In some Western mystical schools, it is mentioned that in order to get close to God, one must follow the path revealed by God. There are seven levels of teaching on the road. Only by stepping on all the teaching levels can you walk down a path that is closer to God. I think that no matter the East or the West, the laws of physics are the same, and other laws should be the same. That kind of path is the Tao. .”

Liu Li heard her say a lot, and suddenly had a feeling that when she said this, she was observing herself, as if she wanted to see something from herself?
Liu Li hoarsely said: "Then have you stepped on the long step to God?"

Song Sanyue said earnestly: "The greatest of the angels was expelled from heaven because he exalted himself and wanted to be like God; the first man was expelled from the Garden of Eden because he wanted to be like God. I'm talking about the way to approach God. , not to usurp the authority of God."

"Naturally, I have not set foot on the steps of mysticism. As you can see, I am just a fan."

Do you want to tell that to the evil under your skirt?Liu Li complained in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be depressed and said, "Then do you think that I have embarked on the road?"

"I don't know." Song Sanyue said with a smile: "If you set foot on it, I would like to worship you as my teacher. Although I believe in God, I actually don't believe that mortals have any way to obtain supernatural power."

Liu Li whispered: "Then do you understand, the kind of people who know that the steps are in front of your eyes, but no matter how you look at them, the steps are like the moon in the mirror, flowers in the water, like various layers of thick fog, how about it?" Can’t see clearly?”

Liu Li lowered his head, tried his best to endure the pain, lowered his voice, and said hoarsely:
"When you see others walking on a bright and smooth road, he is extremely dazzling, but the more dazzling, the more it contrasts with your ordinaryness. No matter how hard you work, all you get is the gap after failure. You don't even have to work hard. You know, do you understand the feeling?"

"I said that I am a Taoist priest practicing Taoism at home, but I was just lying to myself. I know that I have no talent and no future at all. I am just a small member of the mortal world, not a genius with outstanding talents."

"I go to Dongxu Temple regularly, just to meet my master. I still have a thought in my heart. When I went to visit this time, my master also said a few words to me and encouraged me."

Liu Li secretly rejoiced, fortunately, he often played some script-killing games with his friends on the Internet, and his ability to make up ghost stories has not declined at all.

The key point of this long passage is that Liu Li warned Song Sanyue that there is a master behind her, and told her that those evil spirits under her were killed by her own master. The master may have noticed you, and if you don't run away, you will die That's it, just get out of here, and don't forget to settle the translation fee.

Song Sanyue asked: "Have you talked with Master about our Taoist scripture?"

"Of course we talked." Liu Li said, "I told him that I was translating a strange scripture, but I didn't explain the details of the scripture to him. After all, according to the contract, I can't disclose it."

"But I asked for some key terms, which I think are helpful for translating Taoism."

Song Sanyue's eyes lit up, and she listened expectantly.

Liu Li smiled and said: "This time, I will send you the revised translation based on his suggestion. What I ask for advice is mainly the content of the Xuandian chapter. When I first started translating, it was also the translated Xuandian chapter."

"I think the most important part of a Taoist scripture is how to interpret it, understand the rhyme and meaning of the Taoist scriptures, how great the Taoist scriptures written by the ancients are, every sentence, even every word, has a unique interpretation method, You look at my new translation and listen to me slowly."

"Elephants have no shape, great sounds have no sound, and the Dao is naturally not something that can be recorded in books. Our Taoist cultivation methods are very different from Western mysticism, just like the ancient Chinese painters pursued freehand brushwork and spiritual resemblance more than realism and spirituality. The shape is similar, so the key to the Xuandian is not to delve into the meaning of the words and sentences, which will be inferior, but to go beyond them, to understand the inner spirit and will, and to think about the thoughts of the predecessors who left the words. of……"

Liu Li was talking nonsense, and what he said was so precise that even he himself was a little worried that what he said was the real essence of the Xuan Dian chapter of "Yi Yi Jing", right?
Song Sanyue was naturally taken aback when she heard it.

Afterwards, Liu Li made up a mess of his own, and showed Song Sanyue the translation full of private goods based on his years of experience in reading novels and brain supplements. Every change made sense.

If there are no problems in practicing like this, then Liu Li feels that he can start a sect.

When the speech was almost finished, the sky was already dark, and Song Sanyue still had some unfinished business, so she asked to stay: "Mr. Liu, why don't you continue to preach at my residence?"

"No." Liu Li is a very upright gentleman, he said: "Afterwards, when you have successfully cultivated the Xuan Dian chapter and gained your own understanding of the Taoist scriptures, discuss it with me. Now that you encounter problems, don't think it's my translation. It’s about thinking a lot and trusting your heart.”

"After all, the process of seeking the Tao itself is also seeking the Tao."

Song Sanyue said with admiration: "Mr. Liu, you are really talented."

Liu Li was about to bid farewell to leave when he suddenly had a change of heart.

Under Xuan Guangyan's observation, the red line on Song Sanyue's necklace is changing direction slightly!

Liu Li kept his body posture unchanged, followed the red line out of the corner of his eye, and looked over.

The red line passes through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the coffee shop and connects to a person!

He has short light blonde hair, blue eyes, a high and narrow nose bridge, and is wearing a well-pressed black suit. He is observing Liu Li carefully with his eyes. The red thread is connected to his little finger!
Liu Li's pupils suddenly shrank.

Liu Li didn't make any big moves to show it.

He suddenly realized that compared with other people, Song Sanyue radiated the least amount of emotional aura in front of him. She hardly showed any emotional aura. Before, Liu Li thought it was because of her extremely high psychological quality. She is good at hiding her own emotions. Seeing this scene now, she recalled that when she was chatting with her before, she often froze and didn't respond. At that time, Liu Li thought that he had succeeded in bluffing, but the combination of the two...

Song Sanyue, a puppet being manipulated?
With such a guess in his mind, Liu Li broke out in a cold sweat.

No wonder the other party was not afraid to meet with him in private, so it was a puppet?
But is this a living person being manipulated, or a man-made puppet?
Liu Li felt terrified. Song Sanyue, no, the client's methods were too terrifying. The beautiful woman he had been wary of before him was just a pawn thrown by the opponent and could be discarded at will?
"That's right." Song Sanyue suddenly remembered something, and she took out a large box of pastries with a smile from the expensive luxury bag she carried with her.

There are looming red silk threads wrapped around these pastries, Song Sanyue smiled and said, "Would you like to taste it?"
