Chapter 988: Yin and Yang Balance
Long Yun had lived in the Kunxu Realm for a long time before.
As the ancestor of the dragon and tiger in Kunxu, Longyun Shenlong sees the head but does not see the tail. When he came to the earth, he was regarded as an ancestor by the Heavenly Master Mansion of Longhu Mountain, and he barely walked around in Hongchen.
Extraterritorial Xiuzhen unexpectedly came to Earth, Long Yun was ostracized, went to Huxin Island to ask Huxin Island, and went to the Northwest Land.
At this time, when he suddenly came to the red dust of the earth, it was still a bustling city, even Zhang Daoran felt a little uncomfortable, not to mention Long Yun. The disconnection of the times, Long Yun is naturally very uncomfortable.
As night falls, the hustle and bustle continues.
The sound of music could be heard everywhere, and Long Yun's heart began to become impetuous: "Master, I always feel that I am not suitable for here. ”
Long Yun was so carefree before, he came when he wanted, he left when he wanted, and he never had to report to anyone. But at this time, he had already apprenticed to the master, and he followed the master to Hongchen, because he did not have the freedom he had before.
He was very uncomfortable here, in the past, when this kind of red dust breath and Dao heart were floating, he would inevitably leave to avoid it. Long Yun didn't expect that in the city at night, the smell of red dust was even more impressive.
At night, under the cover of night, people throw away the mask of hypocrisy and begin to show their true nature.
Long Yun simply closed the Six Senses, his Dao heart shook, and he could barely hold himself.
"Hongchen refining your heart, do you know why the teacher asked you to come with the teacher?"
Zhang Daoran's voice sounded in Long Yun's mind.
Long Yun shook his head, in the realm of Kunxu, the younger generation, they were all ecstatic to be able to get his guidance. But in the face of Zhang Daoran, Long Yun knew that the huge gap in the realm, his previous understanding of the Dao, was worthless here.
He is not as good as those senior brothers on the island in the middle of the lake, and he has a thorough understanding of the Tao.
"Master wants his disciples to understand Hongchen?"
Long Yun thought for a moment and replied.
"The realization of the red dust, the red dust of each world is different, because the effect on enlightenment is different. You are in Kunxu Realm, and the living customs are the same as hundreds of years ago. Naturally, when you come to the earth, you know that the red dust here is no longer something you can understand. ”
Long Yun nodded, it was true.
The people of this era, the open-mindedness and the equality of men and women will not be seen in the secret realm of Kunxu. Even among the sects, the status of female disciples, among the top echelons of the sect, and the status of female monks, cannot be compared with male monks and male disciples.
Even, some sects don't have female disciples at all.
But in this world, the status of women is even higher than that of some men. It is not uncommon to see women pointing and giving orders to men, while men are submissive.
Especially on the road, in the store, and countless other places, women are more active than men.
In Long Yun's concept, men are like the sky, and women are just vassals. If it is placed in the secret realm of Kunxu, the women here, above ninety out of nine, will be executed...
"The idea in your head is going to change completely here..."
Zhang Daoran's voice continued to appear in his mind: "The different times naturally have their own limitations. The secret realm of Kunxu, the system you have, and the system of this world are naturally the development of the times. What you just thought in your mind is the biggest obstacle to your enlightenment. Let me ask you, can there be high and low levels of yin and yang?"
"Can yin and yang be high and low?"
Long Yun was slightly stunned, as if he had realized.
The five elements of the world are based on yin and yang.
Nature, the laws of heaven and earth, the principles of nature, the distinction of elements, there is no difference between high and low.
"Yin and yang are equal, and since they are juxtaposed, there is no distinction between high and low. ”
Long Yun replied honestly, if Yin and Yang are divided into high and low, wouldn't the world be out of balance?
"Since we know that there is no distinction between yin and yang, why should we distinguish between high and low status between men and women?"
Zhang Daoran put down the Taoist scripture and continued: "Men are yang, women are yin, human beings are the masters of the world, and naturally represent yin and yang. Yin and yang are not high or low, and the status of men and women should be equal. ”
Long Yun had a contemplative look on his face, but he was silent. This is in great conflict with his original concept.
However, Zhang Daoran's statement, he has already agreed.
Indeed, since yin and yang are equal, men and women are naturally equal.
"You only see the world as it is, but you don't see through the fundamentals. It's like in this world, in the ground under your feet. If you close the six senses and isolate yourself from the world, how can you integrate into the world and understand the essence of the world? Just like what you see is that on the surface women have sold everything for the sake of life... What you see is that in order to release the stress, the madness of men... But do you know what the nature of the world is?"
Zhang Daoran sighed, Long Yun was too biased, so that there was a mistake in his understanding of the nature of the world. Even though he thinks that he has seen through Hongchen. But leaving the land of Kunxu, he still can't adapt, can't see through, can't fit in. So, how do you continue to survive?
The essence of monasticism is to adapt to everything, no matter where you are, to be able to survive in peace.
Long Yun's face was red, and he was a little ashamed.
Indeed, as Zhang Daoran said, he has always wanted to isolate himself from the world and maintain a beautiful fantasy of the world in his heart. But fantasy, after all, is only fantasy, not reality.
"Also, just as the teacher asked you at the beginning, do you know what the teacher asked you to follow you and come to the red dust?"
Long Yun's face was sluggish, and he was a little distracted.
For what?
Everything he had just done was denied.
"You were already in the realm of the Yang God before, naturally, you have seen through the red dust and comprehended the realm of the Yin God of heaven, earth, man..."
Zhang Daoran stood up, stood in front of the store, and looked at the bustling city night scene: "Do you know why your realm is extremely difficult to improve?"
Long Yun still shook his head, if he knew, he wouldn't have been trapped for nearly a hundred years.
The Yang God Realm has never been able to break through, if it weren't for that time, after listening to Zhang Daoran's preaching, he still hasn't had the current cultivation realm.
"Because you haven't walked out of the way of red dust at all, you haven't understood what red dust is, you haven't cut off red dust, naturally, your Yang God realm is just something you forcibly ascended. Perhaps it was a natural breakthrough, but it also left endless hidden dangers. Cultivation, every progress, every realm of transformation, every realm of ascension, is bound to lay a solid foundation... Your foundation is not strong, and you cannot go on. If you force your way there, your foundations will be destroyed, and you will die from now on..."
Zhang Daoran's voice was like muffled thunder, making Long Yun tremble. He was a little confused, his previous cultivation was all wrong? All of them were wrong?
He opened his mouth wide, felt that it was difficult to breathe, and finally lowered his head: "Please save me, Master!"
