Chapter 17

"Everyone in the world is afraid of monsters, but monsters eat people but not their hearts. On the contrary, although people in the world don't eat people, they do eat their hearts. Monsters, demons, and humans. What's the difference between the actions of animals?" Chang Mingzi looked at it. The houses in Changping Village sighed sadly. "Senior asked me what I thought of this disaster. All I could say was that it was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster."

"Fellow Taoist is right," Jiang Wen said with a smile. "But the world is ignorant and the three stains are difficult to remove. What happened in Changping Village is just a drop in the ocean. How should such a situation be solved?"

"..." Chang Mingzi was silent for a long time, not knowing what to say.He sighed and shook his head towards Jiang Wen. "Forgive me for being stupid, I really can't think of any other way, I can only follow God's will."

Jiang Wen was not surprised when he heard Chang Mingzi's answer. After all, he had long known that this question was difficult to answer.Even in this modern age of material affluence, no one can come up with an answer to this question.

However, Jiang Wen knew that if he wanted to pretend to be an expert, he would not speak too frankly. He smiled pretending to be a master, then touched his fake beard and said: "Doing according to the will of God is the way to enter the Tao. Only when you make up for the deficiencies in the sky can you call yourself a Taoist." . How can you follow the trend when cultivating the Tao? Cultivating the Tao is like walking on water. Even if you encounter mountain walls, you should persevere and use fossils as the road."

"The same is true for the way of man. If it is crooked, it will be complete; if it is wrong, it will be straight; if it is hollow, it will be full; if it is hollow, it will be new; if it is little, it will be gained; if it is too much, it will be confused. This is how the sage embraces one, which is the way of the world. If you don't see it yourself, you will understand it; if you don't see it yourself, you will understand it. This is why you are outstanding. If you don't cut yourself off, you will have merit. If you don't be proud of yourself, you will be long. You only don't fight, so no one in the world can fight with you. The ancient saying that the song is perfect is complete, how can it be false! Sincerity and completeness will return."

"Good." Chang Mingzi said with a happy face. "Thank you for your guidance, senior."

"It's good that you understand." Jiang Wen nodded with satisfaction, feeling that he had done a good job as a master.At this point, I can't help but sigh that the Tao Te Ching is really profound, and my admiration for the ancient sages also arises spontaneously.

"It's just that senior, the word "cultivation" is simple, but I am still often confused in my heart. I would like to ask my senior, what is Tao?" Chang Mingzi asked humbly.His eyes were piercing, and he looked at Jiang Wenshi, begging for an answer.When he reached his state, practicing meditation and practicing magic power was of no avail.How to achieve enlightenment and see through evil obstacles and see one's true nature is the most important thing.

"Tao?" Jiang Wen heard this and thought for a moment before speaking slowly. "The great road is formless, giving birth to the heaven and the earth; the great road is ruthless, moving the sun and the moon; the great road is nameless, nourishing all things; I don't know its name, so I call it Tao. The Taoist: There is purity and turbidity, movement and stillness; the sky is clear and the earth is turbid. The sky is moving and the earth is still. The male is pure and the female is turbid. The male is moving and the female is quiet. The original flow comes to an end and all things come into being. The pure is the source of turbidity, and the moving is the foundation of stillness. If people can always be pure and quiet, all heaven and earth will return."

"Therefore, Tao can be Tao, but not Tao; name can be named, but not name. The nameless beginning of heaven and earth, the name of the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always no desire to observe its wonder; there is always desire to observe its pleasure. These two come from the same place Although it has different names, it is also called the mysterious, and the mysterious is mysterious again, which is the door to all mysteries."

After Jiang Wen finished speaking, he looked quietly at Chang Mingzi, who was meditating on the spot.He had just combined the Tao Te Ching and explained the word Tao to the other party.Although there are no ascetics in his world, these masterpieces of thought have a long history.

After thousands of years of thinking, Taoist monasticism has long been in line with Taoism.Even the daily behavior, words and deeds of Chinese people are all influenced by Taoist thought.

Although there are Taoist priests in this world, there are very few Taoist classics.Jiang Wen had met some Taoist priests, and all they knew were miscellaneous techniques of drawing talismans and refining elixirs.Although they are all fake Taoist priests, we can still get a glimpse of them.

In addition, from the words of this cultivator, Jiang Wen was even more sure that the classics in his world did not exist in this world.There is quite a difference between practicing martial arts without cultivating one's mind, and practicing martial arts without practicing martial arts.

There was no words between the two of them, but Chang Mingzi closed his eyes tightly and looked happy.Suddenly there was a sound of wind on the ground, and all I could hear was the swaying of leaves and the rustling of the Taoist's robe.

After a long time, Chang Mingzi opened his eyes, and the sound of the wind stopped.With a joyful smile, he bowed deeply towards Jiang Wen.

"Junior Chang Mingzi, thank you for your guidance, senior!" Chang Mingzi was extremely grateful.If it hadn't been for the guidance of the master in front of him, it would have taken him a long time to fully understand these principles.

Or maybe he may not be able to understand the truth in this life. "The seniors are willing to give guidance to the juniors. I am really grateful to the juniors. Why should I repay you? There is no way I can repay you. As long as it is something that the seniors want, I will do my best."

Chang Mingzi was so sincere that Jiang Wen was a little embarrassed.Although he didn't understand what this Taoist understood, he still expressed satisfaction: "It's good that you can explain it clearly. But speaking of this, I do have something to ask you."

"Senior, please speak clearly. I will tell you everything I know." Chang Mingzi bowed.

"I would like to ask how much do you know about the Taoist cultivators in this world?" Jiang Wen looked at Chang Mingzi and asked the question he wanted to ask.

"The juniors know more about the affairs of the Immortal Sect, but I don't know what the seniors want to hear." Chang Mingzi did not question why Jiang Wen didn't know about the affairs of the monastic world. Daqian is not the only one in the world, there are many hidden sects in the world.The senior should be a great sage who is far away from the world, so he knows very little about the things of the world.

"Let's start with the Immortal Sect you know." Jiang Wen was not polite.

When Chang Mingzi heard what he said, he told Jiang Wen about the various immortal sects.

Daqian was established in anticipation of destiny, and its territory was hundreds of millions of miles away.Ordinary people would spend their entire lives trying not to be comprehensive. Even an expert from the immortal sect would take a very long time to travel around.There are countless immortal sects in Daqian, among which the leaders of the righteous path are the Three Saints.It is also the Daqian Daotong Taishen Palace, Tianshan Immortal Zixiao Palace, and Henghai Immortal Mountain Wuliang Pavilion.

After the Three Saints, there are four major sects, one is the Zhengshin Tao that believes in gods, the other is Langhuan Academy that cares about the common people, the third is the Wanshi Sect that teaches without distinction, and the fourth is the Alchemy Division that practices alchemy.

As for other immortal sects, it is difficult to know everything, and Chang Mingzi did not go into details.

In addition, there are also people outside Daqian, and experts from the immortal sect often go to practice.It's just that there are many dangers in the world, except for Da Qian who is protected by destiny, it is considered safe.In the rest of the world, the great powers that light up the Dao Palace are in danger of falling.

As for whether there are really gods in the world, Chang Mingzi can only answer: "If there are gods, it is difficult for us to know. I have never seen gods, but I have seen many demons."

"The destiny of Daqian is on the verge of collapse. Three disasters and six calamities are probably not far away, and the mortal world is not that safe." Chang Mingzi said this with bitterness on his face. "The Three Saints and Four Sects, in order to avoid such disasters, all the immortal sects began to move into the Sumeru Realm a hundred years ago. Without cultivators in the world, demons will become more and more rampant. It is difficult to survive in the human world, and it is difficult to reverse the will of God."

"If a calamity fog like this was placed a hundred years ago, great sages would have taken action to eradicate it. How could it be allowed to become such a scene that blocks the sky and the sun, causing trouble in the world. But now no one knows about it, and there are only poor roads. I didn't realize it until I passed this place. If there is no action by the seniors, this calamity mist will engulf all living beings within a hundred miles, and when the time comes, it will form a killing calamity that even the great sages will not be able to eliminate. I am afraid that the world will be devastated."

"The juniors must represent the people of Daqian and express their gratitude to the seniors for saving their lives."

Jiang Wen was a little embarrassed when he said this. He waved his hands with a nonchalant look on his face: "It's just a little effort."

"As expected of a senior, this kind of Taoism is beyond the reach of younger generations!" Chang Mingzi sighed.
