The copy of the universe from the journey to the west

Chapter 21: Push aside the clouds and rain to see the sun and the moon, live up to the life of no regrets! (Please collect the monthly ticket and read the recommendation!)

Lu Chen's heart moved slightly. After taking a look at Zhen Kun, he immediately said, "Zhen Kun, your heart is crooked, so you are in this situation today. Don't think that everyone is the same as you. A gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way. I will only take my share... Well, the extra money will be counted as interest."

Zhenkun never thought about why the interest was more than the principal.

He just stared at Lu Chen blankly, his eyes lost in thought, muttering to himself: "Is there really no one in this world who loves money? Impossible. Without money, how can one stand up straight? People are poor because they have no money. Being poor means having nothing to say. How can one not love money? Dharma, friends, wealth, and land, all the essentials for cultivation all have the concept of wealth..."

Lu Chen shook his head, realizing that Zhen Kun had gone insane.

As a practitioner, why do you need gold, silver and money to straighten your back?
Dharma, friends, wealth and land are the four elements of spiritual practice. These are the terms used by people in certain schools of thought. They only point out that "wealth" is necessary for spiritual practice.

Rather than a necessity.

It is enough to have enough. If you pursue too much, you will fall into the devil's barrier and lose your spiritual heart.

If a person seeks money instead of the great way, he will not achieve true fruition even if he is practicing.

Lu Chen was too lazy to pay attention to him, turned around and prepared to leave.

"Junior Brother Ruchen!"

Zhen Kun suddenly called out to Lu Chen.

"What's the matter?"

Lu Chen paused, but did not turn around, just tilted his head slightly.

Zhenkun stood up with a complicated expression.

He didn't care about the dirt on his body, stared straight at Lu Chen, and asked: "If you didn't have a body of cultivation, if you were just a beggar and a servant for the past 18 years, laughed at and bullied by others, and one day you were favored by the immortal and were fortunately admitted, but after being excited for a while, you found that you didn't make any progress in three years of hard training... You saw that one after another latecomers surpassed you, and you saw that there was no hope for the road to immortality..."

"Do you still have such thoughts?"

Lu Chen chuckled lightly, without even looking at Zhen Kun, he straightened his head, looked forward, and said firmly: "There is no 'if', there is only me now. I am just me, not anyone else."

"There are tens of thousands of living beings in this world! How can you ever see that there are only two of them?"

"Some people live a mediocre life, not knowing the passing of time; some people are born rich and noble, sitting high in temples! Some people's lives are worthless and are trampled on by others; some people work hard to ascend to heaven and get rid of the oppression above their heads! I am not others, how can I know their suffering and happiness? They are all their own choices!"

At this point, Lu Chen suddenly chuckled, and continued in a gentle but firm tone: "I, only my original intention will not change, and I will keep my heart and ask for the truth, and take steps forward. Finally, one day, I will be able to part the clouds and rain to see the sun and the moon, and be a person who has lived up to his life and has no regrets."

Then he walked towards the mountain without saying anything more.

With every step and every line, I was thinking about my life in my mind.

Although the first half of your life was not mediocre, it cannot be said to be successful either. Have you ever regretted it when it was late at night and everyone was asleep?

Have!
There are many more!
The young man was unaware of his distracted mind and just acted like a cool and stupid person.

But now that I have made up my mind, I just hope to have no regrets for the rest of my life.

Practicing Taoism is difficult, harder than ascending to heaven!
But there is a road in front of me after all. If I don’t climb up, how can I know why I can’t reach the blue sky?
His heart was filled with emotions, and he thought of Zhen Kun's life, as well as his fellow brothers in the mountains who each had their own concerns and pursuits. Lu Chen was moved and hummed poetry softly.

"Everyone knows that being a god is good, but fame and fortune are unforgettable!"

"Where is the ancient and modern image? The grave is covered with grass."

"Everyone knows that being a god is good, but gold and silver are unforgettable!"

"All day long I regretted that we didn't spend much time together, and when the time came I closed my eyes."

"Everyone knows that being a god is good, but my wife is the only one who can't forget it!"

"When you are alive, you talk about your kindness every day, but when you die, you are gone with others."

"Everyone knows that being a god is good, but only our children and grandchildren will never forget it!"

"There have been many foolish parents throughout history, but who has ever seen filial children and grandchildren?"

……

Zhenkun was stunned for a long time. The sound of poetry lingered in his ears and then quietly disappeared.

When the echoes from the surrounding mountains and forests disappeared, he silently shook off the dirt on his body, gathered the silver and money again, wiped off the dirt and weeds to make them shine again, and then packed them neatly into the bag and tied it on his back.

He lowered his head, turned around and walked down the mountain.

He had walked this road thousands of times, and he could walk it with his eyes closed.

You can clearly feel where the rocks and potholes on the road are.

But now when I walk it again, I have a different mood.

It felt like it was difficult to take a single step, as if a mountain of rocks was pressing down on my head, weighing heavily on my heart.

I couldn't help feeling a few emotions in my heart, some resentment, some grievance, and a slight sense of loss.

I stopped and looked back, but I could no longer see the cave entrance amid the clouds and mist.

Zhen Kun was vaguely touched, and he was afraid that in the future he would not be able to find where the mountain gate was.

"Push aside the clouds and rain to see the sun and moon, and be the one who lives up to his life and has no regrets..."

He murmured and was stunned.

For a moment, a warm current rushed to my eyes.

He wiped off the crystal water drops with his sleeve, turned around, twisted his fat body, and walked down the mountain step by step.

I will never be the person who has no regrets...

……

After Lu Chen finished singing the "Hao Le Ge", some thoughts quietly arose in his mind.

If we talk about how bad a person Zhen Kun is, it’s not necessarily the case.

First, he did not lack Lu Chen's daily food supply. Second, the summoned ghosts and gods did not take the initiative to hurt him too much. They probably meant to scare him, or maybe they were afraid that the ancestor would feel something at the foot of the mountain gate.

At best, he is the type who has the will but not the courage.

This is also the reason why Lu Chen let him go so easily.

Of course, what about pitying him?
That is even more impossible.

Not to mention that Lu Chen did not see the scene of Zhen Kun finally going down the mountain, even if he saw it, his heart of Tao would not be shaken in the slightest.

No matter how this guy behaves, there is still a trace of truth-seeking and conscience in his heart.

But his act of abandoning his fellow junior brother and facing danger has been nailed to the pillar of shame by Lu Chen.

Those who kill people for no reason will cry and wail in regret before being executed.

But can this forgive them?
Lu Chen’s answer was just one word—No!

Delayed regret is not regret, but fear.

……

As he was walking, Lu Chen suddenly stopped and turned to look behind him.

His eyes were somewhat suspicious, as if something was following him.

"Is there really something unclean following me?"

Lu Chen frowned.

After seeing the state of the Sun God, it would be a lie for Lu Chen to say that he was not afraid. After all, he had been scared since he was a child in modern society.

I didn't step back at that time, but I subconsciously moved my body to the side.

I have personally experienced that this world is not a place where ghosts and monsters are invisible. At this moment, I suddenly felt uneasy.

"Could it be that Zhen Kun has returned?"

Lu Chen guessed in his heart.

　I will post one chapter first, and the other chapter will be posted during the day. My 100-year-old daughter-in-law went to the hospital for a check-up today. She showed signs of uterine detachment. She has to get up from time to time at night to look after the child. She can't bear it any longer. Finally, I ask for your votes for next month's follow-up reading and recommendation!

　　Go to bed first, An.
