Chapter 52: What is the best of Taoism

Chapter 52 What is the best of Taoism

The old man's voice fell, but Qi Wuhuo raised his head and asked in doubt: "Never?"

The old man laughed dumbly, and then teased:

"Wuhuo's talent and understanding are really good, and his instinct is also very strong, and he can always feel something is wrong."

"It seems that going to practice Buddhism can also make a difference."

"Just gotta cut my hair."

Seeing Qi Wuhuo's bewildered face, the old man also laughed. He didn't continue joking, his voice paused, and then he said gently: "Never means that, to him, it means that he has never met this old man and will not remember him." I don’t remember seeing you today because of the fate of preaching in the past year, and it was just an adventure when I started to practice.”

"Don't worry about these things, since the predestined relationship is formed, it is a fact."

"Just ah."

"He is no longer my disciple from beginning to end."

"Depending on origin and extinction, it should be like this."

The old man’s tone was calm, as if he was talking about something very common, and he smiled and asked the young man who was slowly eating candied haws, saying:

"Speaking of which, Wuhuo thinks he is wrong?"

Qi Wuhuo looked back at this passage hall, and didn't know how to answer for a while. After a long time, he said:

"The disciple feels that there is nothing wrong."

"It can't be said that he was wrong if he didn't follow the teacher."

The old man seemed quite satisfied, and nodded with a smile: "You are right."

"Actually, he did nothing wrong. He passed down the Dharma and the orthodoxy, and allowed the path he pursued to blossom throughout the world. During this process, he did not use evil methods, but instead, step by step, he calmly completed his youthful vision. , neither fast nor slow, has witnessed many things, and has seen three hundred years of Spring and Autumn."

"In the Dharma lineage he opened up, there may also be people who embark on the path of practice."

"As for not letting go of fame and fortune, not letting go of love for money."

The old man's voice paused, and he smiled freely: "But who said fame and fortune are wrong?"

Looking at the bustling city in front of him, he led the young man through step by step, brushing shoulders with everyone, and said gently: "Loving fame and fortune, and gaining everyone's respect by teaching the Dharma, what's wrong with this? It’s not a problem, and there’s nothing wrong with it, but there’s nothing wrong with it, but it’s also deviated from the way.”

"It's okay to seek fame and wealth."

"When giving up fame and fortune, you shouldn't hesitate."

"The number one Taoist sect is [Li Fanchen]."

Qi Wuhuo thought for a while, and asked, "From the mundane world? That's why the teacher said to take him to roam around?"

This time it was beyond Qi Wuhuo's expectation. The old man shook his head and joked:

"No, if he had come out at that time, the old man would not have taken him away."

"It's so tiring to travel around with others."

"We will still let him stay here and be his master."

Qi Wuhuo was stunned: "Huh?"

The old man seemed to be amused by the young man's appearance, and laughed loudly for a long time, then bent slightly, touched Qi Wuhuo's heart lightly with his fingers, and said with a gentle smile: "This is the first sentence of the first lesson, Wuhu I remember."

"Those who leave the mortal world are not separated from the body, but also from the heart."

"Although this metaphor is not very appropriate, it can be used to make Wuhuo understand."

"The body is like the root of a lotus root, and the heart is like a lotus flower. The root is in the mud and the flower is in the void."

"A person who has attained the Tao is in the world of mortals but his heart is in the holy place."

The eyes of the old man were gentle and calm: "If he really came out, what difference does it make if he leaves here or not?"

"He didn't 'walk' out."

"Pity…"

Qi Wuhuo faintly trembled.

If it is said that the senior brother did not come out before, it was only a regret in his heart.

The words of the old man gave him a greater impact.

The old man smiled and waited for him to think. He waited until he finished eating the candied haws before leading him forward. He was still unhurried, but just like the sea area with ripples like stars before, the many scenes in the world of mortals, the sound of selling, The shouts coming and going, the steaming heat, and the lively scenery of the world of mortals also went away in an instant, and within a few steps, they had already come to a piece of green hills.

And in the access hall, a young man once had an adventure. He saw Chinese characters on a stone tablet in an ancient temple, and the real person who understood the magic method of practice was suddenly stunned. For some reason, he felt a sense of loss in his heart, and he seemed to hear an old voice , with a long sigh—

Pity.

This sound is a pity, this life is a pity.

It seems to be a hallucination, but it doesn't stop.

This real person, who has lived for more than 300 years, feels a sense of sadness in his heart, which is beyond words.

Staggered two steps, and actually shed tears in front of many disciples.

But I don't know why.

I don't know who it is.

……………

The old man led Qi Wuhuo forward.

Seeing the wind and warmth, there are colorful ostriches flying above the sky.

The stream comes from a distance and surrounds the side of the mountain. There are also bamboo forests, flower seas, and many landscapes surrounding a small courtyard.

In front of the courtyard, there is a young girl who still looks pure and beautiful, smiling and looking at the distant scenery, while the seat in front of her is an old man with gray hair all over his head, the two seem to be in a relationship Talking about something, with a rather intimate look on his face, Qi Wuhuo asked curiously, "Is this senior brother?"

The old man said: "No, it should be Senior Sister."

Qi Wuhuo looked slightly startled.

The old man stroked his beard and said: "Speaking of it, she is very similar to Wuyou. When she was young, she was sold by her parents to others as a daughter-in-law. She escaped by herself, but because of trusting others, she fell into the prostitution. I cut my face with scissors and disfigured my face before I escaped. I was persistent and walked for seventeen days to escape the dangerous situation.

"At that time, I adopted her as a disciple, raised her for thirteen years, traveled all over the world, and bestowed the Taoist name [Yumiao]."

"Later she acted chivalrously, traveling around the world, seeking immortals and visiting friends, and met a man..."

"The two fell in love at first sight, and they got along well afterwards, but that person's cultivation base was not enough. Later, your senior sister was still young, but he couldn't lock his energy, energy leaked out, and his appearance was getting old day by day. .”

Qi Wuhuo looked at Daoist Yumiao in the distance.

Still like a girl in her 20s.

And that man, although he said that he was practicing Taoism, he was not very old, but his temples were already gray, his face was wrinkled, and his energy was constantly flowing out. Aging faster than normal.

The old man said calmly: "And that was already eight hundred years ago."

The boy was stunned, and looked at the teacher in disbelief.

The old man said calmly: "The man was about to die eight hundred years ago. She expelled herself from my family because she didn't want to hurt the old man."

"Then Tiangong stole the elixir and provoked the marshal of the Nantianmen guardian. Relying on his own abilities, he fought against the sky and was beaten seriously by General Yuangang of Jinglanglei Mansion. He was rescued by your elder brother. Letting go of the arrogance that has been carried out all her life, she knelt outside the Zi Mansion for seven days and seven nights, begging me, hoping to help her to help that man practice as a teacher, Wuhu, what do you think of being a teacher?"

He looked at the young man, then said calmly:

"Refused as a teacher."

"She didn't hold any resentment, she just kowtowed nine times, and since then she left the Taoist gate and lived in seclusion here..."

"Then, she looked for Yin Division, various secret methods."

"Using the magic weapon as a pledge, in exchange for the man reincarnated several times as a human, and the descendants will find him in the sea of people, and no matter what the man's status, he will also be devoted to one person from generation to generation."

"It's just because I promised you a promise back then."

"May life after life be good forever."

Qi Wuhuo looked at that scene. He knew those stories. He said that he only envied mandarin ducks but not immortals, and **** could shake the world, but he had always thought that this was the plot of the story. What he saw today inevitably touched his heart. But the next moment, when he realized his identity, he already understood what he was about to do.

The young Taoist said quietly:

"The disciple asked her if she would like to come back to practice."

"If not, will you bring her Dao name back?"

The old man's expression was as gentle as before. He looked at the child who had been raised by himself for thirteen years, and saw that she seemed to be very happy now, far away from the mundane world, like a fairy outside the world, who is extremely emotional and extremely Taoist. It seems that he has already understood in practice, but in the end he just said those two words:

"Go."

Gentle and peaceful, tolerant, but there is no room for turning around.

There is a mixture of things, born congenitally. Lonely and lonely, independent and unchanging, and weekly travels are not perilous. Can be the mother of the world.

I don't know whose son; I don't know its name.

The character is called "Tao".

Non-seekers also.

Remove its name.

Qi Wuhuo closed his eyes, feeling the joy in his heart after apprenticeship gradually calmed down.

The people he saw hit his heart like a hammer, shaking his heart.

Qi Wuhuo exhaled slowly, cupped his hands, saluted, and said:

"Disciple, Xuanwei takes orders..."

【See】them.

Also [see] yourself.

The young man said to himself.

It is they who persecute me, and I am the one who saves them.
