wandering fairy

The listeners around seemed to understand but half understood, but they still showed hope, hoping to get a glimpse of the mystery.

Dongzi continued to eloquently: "Since it is the inexhaustible power of the source of life, and it is also the general term for the functions of various organs to work together, in fact, whether it is a warrior performing martial arts or a mage performing spells, it is involved. Use. It’s just that when you cast spells in the past, it was just a weak auxiliary force, and you didn’t specifically strengthen it. But now the function developed by my method is to gradually reveal its potential, that is to say, each of your inner Organs, whether it's muscles, bones, flesh and blood, internal organs, or even the three souls and seven souls, all show powerful functions and adaptability, and your...your spirits will continue to grow stronger."

But Wen Erhan's ogre wizard's big face is full of doubts: "But according to my observation, you don't seem to have cultivated the spirit, so why do you also have the skills of a thunder master? Could it be that these abilities also come from changes? "

Dongzi laughed and said: "It is a very abstract but real power or function. It cannot change any magic or supernatural power by itself, it needs an intermediary. It is like human energy, it exists But strength itself cannot cause the wood to break inexplicably. To express various functions and effects, it needs muscles. Of course, muscles alone are not enough, and an ax that breaks the wood is also needed. For you, the muscles here are the spirit, the ax It is the various abilities of the spirit. The ax can break wood, but in the final analysis it comes from your strength. Although the spirit can change various spells, in the final analysis it comes from your body, which is the harmonious combination of various organs It moves and connects with the great power of the universe. For me, this muscle is my internal organs. I use the internal organs to directly activate the power of heaven and earth to form an ax like thunder and lightning to attack the enemy." He suddenly pointed at the still Falco, who fell on the ground, said: "For their psychic powers, this muscle is their brain! Their brains can obtain psionic energy from astral species, and transform the psionic energy into various spells. Axe, to achieve the purpose."

He paused, let everyone digest it, and then continued: "So although the methods are different, the basic principles are actually the same. It's just that the psykers only pay attention to the level of muscles, that is, their brains. Neglecting the most fundamental level of strength is like a person who only exercises his arms. He thinks he can win in battle, but he doesn’t know that strength can be expressed in various forms. Some people don’t have many arm muscles, but they are good at using them. The effect of the overall force is even more powerful."

Everyone is thinking.Suddenly, another voice begging for an audience came from outside the village: "I am Shi Helens, the letter from Duke Vermeer, and I have a letter from Duke Vermeer to Pastor Elilu!"

When I opened the door of the village, I saw that it was an ordinary beast-skull ogre, but was shorter than a human, and wore the skin of a green goblin.Standing at the door in simple farmer's clothes, with no one around!In this turbulent time, he dared to come alone, this guy is also very interesting.

He walked to the side of the crowd, and the first thing he saw was Falco, who was being held on the ground and dejected.His own brother also looked at him with complicated expressions, but he was speechless.

The second thing I saw was Grimm, the low-ranking mage who "dragged him out" one day. His expression was slightly severe for a moment, and then he immediately forcibly turned back to normal.He respectfully said to Dongzi: "Duke Vermeer is very happy after getting your reply. I hope to make friends with such a wise man as you. This is the invitation from the Duke. Please read it." The letter was handed over with both hands.

Dongzi pulled it out to have a look.This lightly scented, beautifully patterned purple-red letter was actually written by Duke Vermeer himself. He said that he had heard for a long time that "Priest Elilu" had many miraculous abilities and extraordinary insights.I very much hope to meet him in person. If Pastor Aililu has time, he will send someone to escort him to his own castle, so that we can talk at night by candlelight in peace of mind.The tone was very polite, without the domineering temper of the legendary red dragon blood.

Dongzi chuckled, and instead asked Helens: "You duke is really well-informed, you know so quickly that my "Six Beasts" can slowly turn the body of a dragon into a body of a half-dragon? Haha , It's a pity that I'm busy with ordinary things now, and I really don't have time to go to him."

Helens was already shocked! "Can the body of the dragon veins gradually become the body of a half-dragon?!" Judging by his appearance and the expressions of the people next to him, it doesn't seem like he is lying.This is a big deal for the local nobles and the royal family!But when I sent the letter, the Duke hadn't gotten the news yet, so did this senior priest let me know about it on purpose? !Did he really intend to fall for the Duke?But why didn't he accept the duke's invitation?

While thinking quickly, he deliberately glanced at his elder brother Falco next to him, and saw that the other party also looked uneasy, but he forced himself to be calm with a straight face, without any surprise.I immediately understood that the royal family had already received the news in advance!It seems that this pastor is asking for a price on both sides!

Whoever bids the most falls to that side.Hehe, and these cyclops shamans are his big backers, so he just waits for the money from both sides.

So he smiled knowingly and said: "Since the pastor has no time recently, then we Duke Vermeer will never force it. The Duke heard that you are very interested in studying herbal medicine, and you are short of some precious medicinal herbs and mineral medicinal materials and utensils for refining medicine." , if necessary, you can write to him directly. With the ability of the Duke, you can send all the things you need in a few days."

Dongzi squinted his eyes and said with a hehehe smile: "Then it's time to work." He really ordered Lelin to bring a pen and paper, and started to write!

While he was writing, a burly figure taller than a person leaped in from outside the village. When everyone looked closely, it turned out to be a bristly pig with thick arms above the knees, jumping two or three stories high, directly jumping over the village. The walls were closed, and they rushed in and shouted: "Pastor Aililu! I got a message, someone wants to talk badly to you?"

He understood as soon as he saw Falco who was still on the ground, so he sneered at Falco with a stiff expression a few times.Then he turned around and said respectfully to Dongzi: "My teacher Jay Leno couldn't come back in time because he was going to rescue a very important mine, so he ordered me to rush back to protect you. But it seems that those despicable guys can no longer threaten you. .”

Dongzi smiled and said, "With the assistance of Elder Snod, I'm naturally fine. But since you're here, you can stay." Yan Bi began to write his list of medicinal materials and utensils, which was endless After writing a few more pages, Wen Erhan next to him came over curiously and asked, "So many medicines? What are they used for? Is it for strengthening?"

Dongzi said while writing: "It can be said that if the refining method and process are correct, then the effect can indeed become obvious. But strictly speaking, it is wrong! Because no matter how delicate the herb is, it can only Provide some auxiliary external force, although this external force is sometimes necessary. But relying on external force alone is absolutely impossible to trigger infinite magical effects. If you want to make your own magical effects infinite. The most fundamental way is to return to yourself Go to the source of life."

As soon as this remark came out, it made Snod think of the "Five Thunders Yaksha Sutra" they practiced, and immediately asked: "You said the origin of life, is it the original life mentioned in the Wulei Yacha Sutra?" Something in the medicine fork?"

Dongzi laughed out loud, waved his hands and said: "What I call the origin of life is an important part that must be involved in practicing the natal medicine fork. But it is not its exclusive skill, but everyone has a place, and all things exist and change. The source. Although I used the word source, it is actually just a vague description in a dream, and there is no source that can be grasped. The so-called source is the Tao. It is the root of all things without limit. All things come from Tao, from huge elephants and beasts to tiny ants and mosquitoes, from giant trees that are not old for ten thousand years to weak grasses that are dead for half a year, from extremely clever arcanists to ignorant earthworms, All come from the Tao. Their formation and growth are all based on the Tao."

He also said very solemnly: "I said what is the source and what is the foundation. You must not think that there is really a source and foundation for you to chase and control. I am just making a metaphor. Don't Thinking that there is really something for you to grasp, if you have this thought, you will definitely not be able to contact the Tao.”

Elder Snod immediately came up to him, and asked closely, "Why can't I have such an idea? If I don't pursue it, don't grasp it, how can I get that way?"

Dongzi immediately waved his hand and said: "Stop! Stop! Stop! Don't think about it! The Tao has never left you. What do you say you can gain or not? If you have this idea, you are seeking the Tao outside your body. After all, it is nothing but fishing in the water !"

This time, he completely confused everyone around him.Even Snod said hesitantly: "If you don't chase, chase, or seek, then how can you get in touch with Tao?"

But Dongzi laughed out loud.He shouted: "That's right! Just don't chase, don't chase, don't seek! In this way, Daoran will appear. Didn't I say it? Dao transformed everything, but why are everything different?" He pointed to the distance The snow-capped mountain said: "Look, all the streams come from the snow-capped mountains, but the final flow directions are different. Those that flow to the southwest are evaporated in the middle. The streams that flow to the southeast converge into small streams, slowly Dissipated on the vast wilderness. Those that flowed due north were mixed into huge underground rivers and turned into an underground lake. The same drop of water has different endings. But if these water drops are put back into the snow mountain What about the top? It used to flow to the southwest, but now it can go to the true north. What used to flow to the southeast can now also go to the true north. The fate has changed.”

Dongzi said sternly: "The top of the snow-capped mountain where water droplets are bred is Tao, and all our pursuits, desires, preferences, etc., are all kinds of terrains! These terrains lead us to rush towards different endings, and we are self-righteous. It decides everything. In fact, if you think about it carefully, isn’t our life determined by these pursuits, desires, preferences, etc.? Is it enslaved? So not chasing, not chasing, not seeking is to return to that place. The ethereal but real snow-capped mountain top allows us to determine our own characteristics and destiny once again. But this is easy to say, but very, very difficult to do.”

In the circle of people around, except for what Snod was thinking and Nassus was dazed, the "little ogre" Helens, who was of green goblin blood, was murmuring vigorously.It seemed to be endorsing; Rafina was a little inexplicably dazed; Lelin was wiping her mid-handled saber disapprovingly; while Mackenzie and the bristly pig were looking at each other.The rest of the people are also you looking at me, and I looking at you, the more they listen, the more confused they become.

However, those shaman elders instinctively knew that the key point was reached.Don't petition one after another: "We are also willing to learn the art of the natal medicine fork! We are also willing to learn the Tao. I also ask the great druid of Arilu to teach a lesson.

Dongzi walked under the big walnut tree with a wry smile, shook his head repeatedly and said, "Learn the Tao? Hahaha I haven't learned it myself, so how can I teach you? As for learning the natal medicine fork, this skill is not what you practiced before. Wulei Yacha, the Wulei Yacha method originally originated from a school of our secret druids, the Shangqing School, which focuses on regulating the body and mind with thoughts, talismans, and herbs, so as to integrate the external subtle Qi with the five internal organs. Many spirit-like things are stored in the body, and they are ordered to go out to act when needed. Later, after evolution and optimization, it gradually becomes the current Wulei Yacha God Transformation Method, which is based on itself and uses the spirit as the internal and external interaction. The intermediary of the function is to use the inner force to promote the spirit, and then use the spirit to promote the external force. But in general, this method focuses on the connection between the inside and the outside, and the internal requirements are not very high. As long as the method is proper and persistent, it can be achieved. Just like you create a sharp sword, and then practice various sword skills. It is not an unattainable skill. But the law of natal Yaksha is different. It takes the practitioner himself as the core of all changes, and external force is only an auxiliary means. It’s like turning your flesh and blood body into a body of steel, and it needs to move flexibly. It’s a hundred times more difficult than making and practicing a sword. So it has very high requirements for practitioners, roughly speaking, there are at least five Difficulties. Very human can practice."

All the shaman elders insisted: "No matter how difficult it is, we have to try. How difficult is it? Let us be prepared!"

Dongzi stood under the big walnut tree, and said to the people around him: "The five great hardships are hard and sad. Even with great wisdom and great perseverance, it takes a few more chances to pass through. The hardships and dangers are like a straw boat entering the sea. I don't know when I will be there." It will be overthrown. Since you are determined to listen, I will also briefly say: the first difficulty is the difficulty of contemplating the heart; the second difficulty is the difficulty of eliminating mental attachment; the third difficulty is the difficulty of suppressing habits; The fifth difficulty is to avoid risks.”

He said solemnly: "The first difficulty is to observe the heart. You need to know that all desires, emotions, habits, ways of thinking, etc. are like the trend of mountains. If you follow these trends, you will inevitably get a certain ending. And this The ending may exceed your expectations, or it may violate your expectations, but whether it is good or bad, it is not controlled by you, and you have achieved it! You just walk down these inner terrains. In the end, you think You are in charge, in fact, you are in charge of all desires, emotions, habits, ways of thinking, etc. in your heart! Ordinary people don’t know this truth, when anger comes, they think it’s me who is angry, when joy comes, they think it’s me It is me who is joyful, and when sorrow comes, it thinks that I am sad. Just like the water drops falling down various terrains, it thinks that I am flowing downward. But is it flowing downward, or is it something else? Things make it go down? Have you ever thought about that?"

Naturally, this stuff was never thought of.As a result, even Great Elder Snord looked a little hazy and gloomy.The others simply stood there with stern faces and staring eyes like rows of wood carvings, waiting for Dongzi to continue talking.Only that Helens was still a little bit responsive, and continued to mutter and endorse.

Dongzi shook his head helplessly, and continued: "In short, if you want to return to the original way of the mountain, you must observe your heart quietly, not only to observe, but also to see through! See through all kinds of things in your heart just like seeing through all kinds of illusions. Power, the ultimate understanding: Desires are not self, emotions are not self, thoughts are not self, thoughts are not self. Just like the drop of water, knowing that when walking on a slope, it is the slope that makes me go, not I that is walking When jumping in the mountain stream, I know that it is the mountain stream that makes me jump, not me. When I gather in a small pool, I know that it is the small pool that makes me stop gathering, not I stop gathering. So it is for a long time , I finally realized that all heights, sizes, left and right, numbers, etc. are not my destination, and none of them can make me feel at ease. If I want to be truly at ease, I need to return to the misty peak. But this process is very, very difficult Ah, it’s rare to blow away all the dark clouds in one breath.”

After everyone looked at each other, Snod finally bit the bullet and asked: "Is this so difficult? There is no convenient way?" But Dongzi immediately said: "This is so difficult, as for the convenient way? No. Because this involves the second difficulty, which is the difficulty of getting rid of the mind."
