Rebirth of the Great Desolation: I am Red Cloud

Chapter 76 The Mistress of Fenghuo Island

Saints from the Great Desolate Continent gathered on Fenghuo Island to ask Hongyun about his understanding of the way of heaven in the midst of divine punishment. While everyone was waiting for Hongyun to explain how to break through the bottleneck, and their faces were filled with anticipation and happiness, they heard a mournful sound from outside the hall. Bitter voice: "Brother Hongyun, I finally found you."

When the voice came, Hong Yun's perspective followed the sound, and everyone waited expectantly for Hong Yun's explanation, but at this moment they saw Hong Yun stopped, and couldn't help feeling discouraged, and turned their heads involuntarily. Go and find out who disturbed Hongyun.

Houtu was covered in wind and dust, standing outside the gate of the Ruyi Palace with a face full of misery, a pair of smart eyes gleaming with tears, staring straight at Hongyun, everyone saw that it was Houtu who interrupted Hongyun, and they all knew that Hongyun and Houtu The karma of the soil is very deep, and Hongyun was punished by the sky because of the Houtu, so they all stopped and waited for the two of them quietly.

Gongming and many other disciples appeared behind Houtu. Gongming came forward and said to Hongyun cautiously, "Teacher, Master Houtu said he couldn't wait for me to pass the introduction, so he came directly to the mountain... ."

Hongyun didn't wait for Gongming to finish, he waved his hand and told Gongming and other disciples to retreat, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said softly to Houtu: "Junior Sister Houtu is here, don't stand outside the hall, come in quickly .”

Hongyun walked up to Houtu, gently pulled her in, and brought her to Nuwa's side, and was supported by Nuwa, and sat down.Hongyun smiled modestly at Houtu, returned to his seat, sat upright on it, and continued to speak: "Hongyun has been punished by heaven for going against the sky, and he has a further understanding of the way of heaven when he is punished by heaven. , It’s just that the way of heaven is mysterious, the cause and effect in it can only be understood, but it is difficult to express it in words, so all the brothers and sisters asked Hongyun to say something, but it made Hongyun difficult. However, in the process of practicing Hongyun, By chance, I have some experience in the cultivation of saints, but it can be said to all the brothers and sisters, hoping to help you break through the bottleneck.

"The place of Tao lies in the heart. Changes in mood will directly affect the perception of the way of heaven. We saints can follow the way of heaven and formulate the laws of heaven and earth. It is often said that the way of heaven is fair, and the way of heaven is ruthless. But what is fair and what is ruthless? The place of love, the place of love, both exist in the square inch, but it is the original heart, which is the realm of the heart, which can be integrated into the law of the Dao, and within the law, there is a human heart, and what the human heart points to is the place of heaven. "Speaking of this, Hong Yun saw that everyone was lost in thought, and knew that what he said had made everyone understand. After a short pause, he continued: "That's why Hong Yun thinks that the way of heaven is fair, but the way of heaven is not ruthless. Saints are under the way of heaven. , inaction and ruthlessness are just sticking to the Dao heart, but they can't do whatever they want, because the saint is selfish and can't be fair. It can be seen that the saint has not transcended the way of heaven, but still needs to follow the sky. Under the circumstances, there is still a glimmer of life left, which is actually the incompleteness of heaven and earth, and a glimmer of mystery is for the mercy of heaven."

In the middle of Hongyun's explanation, I saw a "bang", which woke everyone up in their comprehension. When they looked up, there was a piece of Qingyun about the size of an acre above Lao Tzu's head. There are thousands of golden flowers, and there are also necklaces and pendant beads, which are endless. On the golden flower, there is a bowl-sized bead, which is a chaotic bead. covered.But Lao Tzu's cultivation base has already reached the top of the bottleneck. Now that he feels Hongyun's experience in cultivating Taoism, he has an epiphany in an instant.

"The way of heaven is fair, the way of heaven is fair, but it is like this. No wonder the teacher said that my way of inaction is not as good as Hongyun's brother, but I have lost my way." After sighing, I grew up, bowed deeply to Hongyun and said: "Thank you, Junior Brother Hongyun, for your point. Inaction is not ruthless, but it is like this. Only today can I understand."

Hong Yun hurriedly moved aside, not daring to accept Lao Tzu's courtesy, and said: "Senior brother, let's not be like this, Hong Yun is broken, but the way of senior brother is natural, and there are many things that Hong Yun can't match. This time, the feeling is only in the morning and evening, Hong Yun can't be Such a great gift."

Lao Tzu chuckled and was not polite, went straight back to his seat, and said to Yuan Shi and the others with a smile: "A while ago, the teacher once said in the underworld that our way is not as good as that of Hongyun Junior Brother. After some points, we still don't understand, until today. , With the help of Junior Brother Hongyun's practice experience, I can point directly to my heart and see through the way of heaven, but it is the way of heaven that is fair, and the way of heaven is sentient. Don't you understand?"

Yuan Shi, Tong Tian and Jie Yin were taken aback when they heard what Lao Tzu said, they felt something in their hearts, they all got up, bowed deeply to Hong Yun and said: "Thank you, Junior Brother Hong Yun, for your suggestion, but we have to go ahead and go back to retreat to enlightenment." The three of them did not greet others after they finished speaking, they went out of the main hall, rode auspicious clouds, and drifted away.Nuwa and Zhunti are relatively shallow, and they don't have much understanding of this time, so they don't understand why.Zhunti saw that he was escorted away, and he couldn't stay alone, so he also saluted Hongyun and hurried away.

With the departure of Yuanshi and others, only Hongyun, Laozi, Nuwa, and Houtu were left in the hall. Knowing that her cultivation was too shallow and the opportunity had not yet come, Nuwa put aside the matter of understanding the way of heaven, and pulled it to the side. Touching the back soil, whispering.

Seeing this, Hongyun ignored them, and drank tea with Lao Tzu while talking about their cultivation experience. After some exchanges, both of them felt that they had benefited a lot. He saluted and said: "Junior Brother Hongyun, I have benefited a lot from coming to Fenghuo Island this time. It's getting late, but I'll leave first. You and I will have a long time together." Said: "Brother Hongyun, I also want to say goodbye with Brother Laozi, but this time I am bothering Senior Brother, but Senior Brother's Fenghuo Island is really boundless. If I have time some other day, I will come to stay for a long time, Senior Brother Hongyun Don’t think that Nu Wa is troublesome.” Hong Yun heard it, and said to himself: “Offend anyone, but you can’t offend women. I didn’t say anything, and put the big hat on me first.” Said hurriedly: “ What Junior Sister Nuwa said was that the Fenghuo Island couldn't invite guests like Senior Sister Nuwa, so how could they dislike Junior Sister. From now on, Junior Sister Nuwa can stay in Fenghuo Island as they please. "

"Hehehe, Nuwa is not polite." Nuwa smiled coquettishly, but glanced at the back soil.

Seeing off Lao Tzu and Nu Wa, Hong Yun and Hou Tu sat in Ruyi Palace, both silent, looking at each other in a rather funny manner, Hou Tu let out a long sigh, but before he could speak, tears flowed out first .Hongyun looked at Houtu and wept without saying a word. He was at a loss for a while, and asked softly, "Why is Junior Sister Houtu crying? Could it be that Hongyun made Junior Sister angry?"

"It's not that senior brother made me angry, it's just that Houtu thought that senior brother went against the sky for Houtu, was punished by heaven, and suffered so much suffering. I was happy for a while, and I couldn't control it unconsciously." Although Hou Tu was crying, he smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his charming appearance aroused pity.

"What my senior brother has done for Houtu, Houtu will remember it in my heart. For a hundred years, when I think of my senior brother suffering for me, Houtu's heart is broken. I was punished by God, but I couldn't find my brother no matter what happened." Houtu said while weeping, as if he wanted to express all the pain of longing for a hundred years.

"Fortunately, I heard that senior brother escaped the punishment of heaven, and seeing senior brother again today, Houtu's wish has been fulfilled. It's just that senior brother will not do foolish things in the future. Houtu is not worthy of senior brother's favor, and Houtu doesn't ask for anything else. , I only wish for the longevity and well-being of senior brother." Houtu's tears poured out like a tide, where there is still the majesty of the emperor, and where there is the demeanor of the ancestor witch.

Hongyun listened quietly to Houtu's confession, feeling sour in his heart. Although Houtu ignored the matter of finding himself, Hongyun knew how big the three realms of the prehistoric and desolate were, and how big the void outside the territory was. At that time, it was very difficult to find someone in the infinite sky, so I also knew how much Houtu had suffered in finding himself in the past hundred years.

"Junior Sister, the matter of God's punishment is over, let the past be the past, don't you think I am doing well now, but Junior Sister is becoming more and more simple, Hong Yun knows that Junior Sister must have suffered a lot in the past hundred years Suffering, I think the pain of being punished by heaven is shared by my junior sister; moreover, my junior sister has a soul, can escape from the nether world, and the world is at ease from now on. It is also due to chance, but it is gratifying. Since there is no need to go back to the underworld, the younger sister should find a place to practice and continue to understand the way of heaven."

When Houtu heard that Hongyun teased him, saying that he had shared the suffering of the punishment from heaven, he felt happy, and laughed through his tears for a moment: "Houtu has nothing else to ask, as long as the brother is safe, as for the matter of going out of the nether world to find the dojo , I have made up my mind, from now on I will stay in this Fenghuo Island, always watch over my senior brother, and prevent my senior brother from doing foolish things again." Houtu blushed on his face after he finished speaking, and he straightened his face. head.

What Houtu said made Hongyun stunned on the spot, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Houtu practiced on Fenghuo Island is not bad, and it can also add a strong strength to Fenghuo Island. Leaving Houtu to take care of many affairs can also make him worry-free, and Houtu's words have the meaning of committing himself to himself. Although monks rarely get married, if they refuse Houtu at this time, it will inevitably make him Feeling chilled, he said to Houtu: "Sister, if you don't think my Fenghuo Island is too small, but you can practice on the island with peace of mind, in the future, many disciples and sisters under my sect can be sent at will."

Hongyun informs the whole island of Houtu's practice on Fenghuo Island, and his disciples need to perform teacher's ceremony when they see Houtu.Firstly, Houtu transformed into reincarnation, and all the living beings in the prehistoric world felt his great virtue; It is not an exaggeration to say that he is No. 1 under the saints after chasing the saints; three times, in order to repay Hongyun's great kindness, Houtu has searched all over the flood for a hundred years, hoping to help Hongyun escape the punishment of heaven as soon as possible. The disciples on the island were full of admiration, so Houtu was recognized by all the disciples on the island, and treated Houtu like a red cloud, full of respect from the heart.

Hongyun circulated his mana, and built a palace on the mountain opposite Ruyi Palace. The palace was called Dihuang Palace, and he gave it to Houtu as a practice place. After Houtu took over Fenghuo Island, he took over many affairs on the island. From the teaching of disciples to the welcome and sending off of various great gods, from the development planning of the island to the distribution of many spiritual fruits and grasses, all affairs, large and small, are handled in a decent manner, which makes Hongyun even more More time to comprehend the way of heaven.

Houtu has become the hostess of Fenghuo Island.
