You Know Nothing About Pain

"First of all, you close your eyes, soothe your mind, relax your whole body, and then imagine that there is a tall and upright precious tree in front of you.

Three branches protrude from the left and right ends of the treasure tree, plus one on the top, for a total of seven branches. "

Naruto slowly guided Sasuke: "The tops of the seven branches of the precious tree bear seven kinds of fruits, namely gold, purple gold, silver, agate, coral, white jade, and pearl, which are shining brightly."

"These seven branches symbolize your seven emotions, joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, and desire. Each fruit on the top of the branch represents a collection of emotions in your heart."

While talking, Naruto quietly stretched his right hand behind him, spreading his palms.

Mr. Ji stood behind Naruto, and created a writing brush out of thin air, and painted on Naruto's palm.

Mr. Ji's painting is naturally the seven-fold treasure tree in Naruto's mouth, and it is also the focus of Sasuke's idea of ​​whether he can successfully get started.

This conception method was born out of a Buddhist practice method, and even the seven-fold treasure tree is borrowed from the Buddhist conception of the seven-fold tree line.

It's just that after Mr. Ji's improvement, it is more in line with Confucianism.

The reason why Sasuke was asked to practice the conception of the seven treasure trees is because this conception relies on the power of emotions.

Since Sasuke couldn't completely eliminate distracting thoughts and empty his mind, it would be better to simply give him an imaginary goal, which would be more suitable for him.

The seven-fold treasure tree symbolizes the seven emotions of people. It can collect and adjust the emotions in people's hearts, so that emotions will no longer run rampant in people's hearts unscrupulously.

After the chaotic emotions are sorted out, the spirit and body can be brought into harmony and unity. The flesh provides nourishment for the spirit, and the spirit in turn nourishes the flesh.

As a result, the spirit and the body coordinate with each other and complement each other, and the water and fire complement each other to achieve a perfect balance.

Buddhist meditation methods generally say that the seven emotions and six desires are scourges, and the purpose of visualization is also to eliminate emotions and achieve no desires and desires.

However, Mr. Ji's conception of the Seven Treasure Trees is by no means a way of restraining and suppressing emotions, but instead wants to greatly develop human emotions.

Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, but the vast majority of people have never really faced up to their inner emotions, nor have they really controlled their emotions. Instead, most of them are led by their own impulsive emotions.

The so-called rage and ecstasy are more of a manifestation of loss of emotional control.

And the actions taken under such out-of-control emotions are just temporarily dazed and blinded, and they are not the expression of true inner emotions at all.

This is also why many people suddenly encounter accidents and make many outrageous actions when they are excited. At the time, they only feel happy in their hearts, but they often regret it afterwards.

What's more, under the praise of others, all kinds of rhetoric are released under the heat of the head, and finally run away timidly when things come to an end. This is a situation of failing to face up to and control one's true inner feelings.

Therefore, Mr. Ji's idea of ​​the Sevenfold Treasure Tree View is for people to truly face up to their inner feelings.

As a Confucian scholar, Mr. Ji never believed that strong emotions should be suppressed.

On the contrary, Mr. Ji believes that it is the rich and strong emotions of human beings that lead to the birth of justice and morality, the great glory of human nature, and the birth of so many epic stories.

Emotions do not need to be suppressed, but they need to be channeled and expressed in the right way.

When a person can face up to his emotions and release them in a correct and reasonable way, then he will bloom with incomparable brilliance and brilliance of humanity.

After Naruto waited for Mr. Ji to finish drawing, he gently placed his right hand on Sasuke's forehead.

Originally, Sasuke visualized according to Naruto's description, and could only vaguely come up with a rough shape. It was not easy to visualize the seven branches, let alone the seven fruits on the branches.

Just when Sasuke felt a splitting headache and his consciousness gradually blurred, Naruto's palm was printed on his forehead.

In an instant, Sasuke felt as if there was light in a dark room, his dull mind suddenly became brighter, the blurred seven-fold treasure tree instantly became clear, and the fruits on the seven branches also emerged one by one, and then condensed into a bone the size of a grain of rice.

Sasuke even had a feeling that the treasure tree that was originally a fantasy in his mind suddenly appeared a sense of reality, as if it really existed inside his body.

Sasuke watched as the roots at the bottom of the Sevenfold Treasure Tree continued to spread, like countless tentacles firmly rooted in his mind, and then spread down to his heart little by little.

Visualizing thoughts is actually a kind of practice that is relatively difficult to get started. The most difficult point is to visualize exactly what you want, and then maintain it for a long time. After a long period of time, it can really take root in your mind.

This kind of thing can only be worked hard by water. The most common method is to visualize a picture with a trace of sincerity day and night, so that the content of the picture will be deeply imprinted in your mind.

Sasuke naturally doesn't have a picture of the Sevenfold Treasure Tree, but he has Naruto, and Naruto has Mr. Ji.

Mr. Ji reproduced the true meaning of the seven treasure trees in his heart with a painting, and then let Naruto imprint it in Sasuke's mind, which saved Sasuke a lot of time out of thin air, and directly entered the entry level.

As the visualization progressed, Sasuke only felt that his mind had never been so transparent at this moment, as if he had let go of a heavy burden, and his whole body felt a sense of comfort from top to bottom.

Mr. Ji observed Sasuke's state, and understood that this was an illusion that Sasuke had just finished visualizing, and the rich emotions in his heart would reoccupy the high ground after a while.

The idea of ​​cultivating the Seven-Level Treasure Tree View is not so simple, there are roughly three realms.

The first thing is to look at mountains as mountains and water as water. You can clearly understand your inner emotions. The specific manifestation is that the bones on the branches and buds are growing day by day.

The second is to see that mountains are not mountains, and water is not water. In addition to being able to understand the emotions in your heart, you can also not be affected by their confusion, and you can even temporarily analyze your heart from the perspective of a bystander. heart field.

The third level is to look at whether mountains are mountains, water or water. This level is not so much bells and whistles.

As the saying goes, yesterday is over, and the future can be expected. Only today will I know who I am.

The nutrition that nourishes the seven treasure trees in the heart is the emotion in the human heart. The richer and more active the person is, the more suitable for this kind of conception.

Sasuke is still at the level of just getting started in the first stage, and the extent to which he can cultivate in the future depends on his own efforts and luck.

Sasuke was immersed in the world of thoughts of the Sevenfold Treasure Tree, and time passed bit by bit. After an unknown amount of time, Sasuke slowly opened his eyes, only to feel that he was more energetic than ever.

Sasuke stretched out comfortably, as if he had slept soundly. Since the night of the genocide, he hasn't had a good night's sleep, and every night he wakes up in a nightmare.

This is actually one of the effects of the idea of ​​the Sevenfold Treasure Tree, which can somewhat calm the delusion caused by the intense emotions of many people.

Sasuke glanced out of the window subconsciously, it was already dawn, and it seemed that he had practiced for a whole night.

Sasuke got up and felt his body, the amount of chakra in his body had increased significantly compared to before.

If the increase obtained by refining chakra for one night on weekdays is one, then the increase last night reached an astonishing three.

In fact, Sasuke didn't realize at all that meditation on the improvement of chakra was just a small additional effect, and the really powerful part of meditation was not realized at all with his current vision.

The idea of ​​practicing meditation to improve chakra is actually similar to Naruto's meditation. They both leave the work of refining chakra to the body's instinct to handle, so as to maximize efficiency.

As for why Mr. Ji didn't teach Naruto to contemplate thoughts, the main reason is that although contemplating thoughts is convenient and powerful in practice, it will limit Naruto's development invisibly.

For Sasuke, such a thing is needed to help him pave the way, so as not to go astray in the future.It's like raising Sasuke's lower limit up.

But the upper limit is also given, that is, the limit of the concept of thinking. Even if Sasuke breaks through by himself in the future, he will not be able to jump out of the basic route laid at the beginning.

In Mr. Ji's view, the concept of conception is a kind of restriction for Naruto itself, which completely wastes Naruto's own aptitude.

For Naruto, mere ideas are not his limit at all. Mr. Ji's expectations for Naruto must at least surpass himself.

As the saying goes, the blue comes from the blue and is worse than the blue. The disciple does not have to be inferior to the teacher, and the teacher does not have to be better than the disciple.

It is Mr. Ji's expectation for Naruto to go beyond himself and walk out of the Dao of Tongtian that belongs to Naruto himself.

Although the process may take a long time and may encounter various hardships, Mr. Ji is confident.

After all, for a gentleman like Mr. Ji, the most indispensable thing is patience.

Naruto also woke up from his trance.

"Are you awake?" Naruto smiled and said, "How do you feel? I didn't dare to disturb you when I saw you visualize yesterday, so I just started practicing."

"Not bad." Sasuke raised his chin reservedly: "The efficiency of chakra extraction has increased a lot."

Naruto opened his mouth to say something.Suddenly both of their stomachs growled, after all, it was time for breakfast.

So the two came to the kitchen in the front hall together. There were still a lot of ingredients left in the refrigerator in the kitchen, so Naruto made breakfast conveniently.

"Try the fried eggs and bacon I made." Naruto put the prepared breakfast and milk in front of Sasuke: "I don't know what you like, so I come according to my own taste."

"It's okay, I like it very much." Sasuke nodded and picked up the chopsticks to prepare to eat.

The moment he picked up the chopsticks, Sasuke suddenly froze, staring at the egg in front of him without speaking for a long time.

Sasuke suddenly discovered that he could sit and eat in his own restaurant without knowing it.

After experiencing the night of genocide, Sasuke couldn't live a normal life at home, whether it was eating or resting.

No matter where he goes, he will always recall the bits and pieces of his life with his parents, and of course he will be unable to restrain the memory of that man. All this makes Sasuke so painful that he wants to escape from this place all the time.

But where can he escape to? In the end, he will return to this place, this once warm place, but now painful place.

However, at this moment, he can actually eat in the restaurant with a peaceful mood as before, without repeating the previous memories and tragedies in his mind.

"What's wrong?" Naruto looked at Sasuke who was holding up his chopsticks and said, "What's the problem? You don't like bacon? Or does the taste not suit your taste?"

"Okay." Since Sasuke didn't want to say anything, Naruto didn't want to ask, he picked up a piece of bacon first and said, "Eat the bacon while it's hot, or it won't taste good when it cools down."

"I want you to teach me, I've eaten more bacon than you." Sasuke cursed with a smile, he also picked up his chopsticks and began to concentrate on the breakfast in front of him.

The cool morning breeze followed the soft sunlight, shining on the two little people in the restaurant.

The two of them sat opposite each other and gorged themselves, picking up the cup at hand from time to time to take a sip of milk to relieve their tiredness. Anyone who saw such a young man would give a thumbs up and praise him for his good appetite.

What happened yesterday is like dying yesterday; what is doing today is like being born today.After the two of them finished their meal, Naruto took the time to make two simple lunches with the ingredients in the refrigerator.

Originally, Sasuke wanted not to go to school today, and to strengthen his meditation practice at home.

But I couldn't resist Naruto's pull, saying that since my health is already good, I can't skip class anymore, and I can't be his accomplice.

"I said, isn't it just skipping a day of class?" Sasuke said with a headache: "What's the big deal, besides what is taught in school now, I have already learned—"

Sasuke regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, and instantly realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"Huh?" Naruto said with eyes not eyes and nose not nose when he heard it, "What did you just say?"

"Nothing, nothing."

Sasuke laughed twice, he was really scared of Naruto now, he was afraid that Naruto would immediately take out a weird test question for him to solve as soon as he spoke.

"I'm really afraid of you." Sasuke sighed helplessly, and said resignedly, "Okay, okay, can't I go to school?"

So the two went to school with their schoolbags on their backs.

On the way, Naruto reminded Sasuke that last night was because Sasuke was practicing meditation for the first time, and he was worried about something going wrong, so he stayed with him all night and did not go home, so he helped him make breakfast and lunch.

After today, Sasuke had to find a way to solve his own breakfast, not only breakfast, but also lunch and dinner.

Sasuke nodded and didn't say anything, and didn't take this matter to heart.

Isn't it just cooking a meal, how big is it, and it can be difficult for him Uchiha Sasuke?

"I said, can you do it, don't just nod your head."

Seeing Sasuke's indifferent expression, Naruto said worriedly: "Have you ever cooked before? Do you know how to use a stove? Do you know how to light a fire?"

"Don't worry." Sasuke waved his hand casually: "Isn't it just cooking, I can handle it."

"really?"

Naruto looked skeptical: "To be honest, it doesn't matter if you haven't cooked a meal once. I understand. If it's not possible recently, I'll make an extra bento at home and bring it to you. When you learn it, then——"
