Chapter 42: Yin and Yang Fish
The venue was crowded with people, and believers from all over the world gathered together, and in the morning, from the cultural origin of ancient times to the current social situation, it was very hearty.
Chinese culture, based on the Book of Changes, the Tao Te Ching, and the Three Xuans of the Nanhua Sutra, has derived various schools of thought. The Taoist "flow" character door, which is all-encompassing, is Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, Yin and Yang family, Moism, medicine, or reading scriptures, or reciting Buddha, and descending to the truth.
There is also the word "quiet", which includes resting food and guarding the grain, quiet and inaction, participating in meditation, fasting, or sleeping, or making meritorious service, and meritocating.
Each door has its own essence, although the source is one, but the expression is different.
Book of Changes, written by the Four Sages, Fuxi painted hexagrams, King Wen performed Yi, Zhou Gong made speeches, and Confucius added wings. Among them, the gossip of Qiandui is overlapped with each other, and the sixty-four hexagrams contain the mysteries of heaven and earth. Broad and subtle, simple and complex.
Seeing that the speech was about to end, suddenly Dinghaizhu began to heat up. Later, it gradually changed from fever to trembling, Recalling the previous experience of the Hustle and Void Sword encountering demons and demons, I know that among the people sitting here, there must be demons!
In order to avoid unnecessary panic and accidents, the language is quickly organized.
As soon as the conclusion was finished, a middle-aged woman with a mediocre appearance had finished seeing people. Then he came up and said: "Dao Chief, what you are talking about is a Taoist side, not a righteous way, I came from afar today, thinking that the Taoist must have a high theory, but I don't want to be so common!" The attitude is very light.
I could see that although this person was a human figure, he was not popular, his eyes were empty, there was no look, and his face was black and watery. Dinghaizhu's body has also become hotter than before.
After a lesson, he knew the results and said, "You have practiced for thousands of years, and you have the ability to change, and you are here today to hear the method of cultivating the truth, but you have neglected a few important things!"
When the woman saw that I had told her, her face suddenly changed, and her expression became panicked.
I continued: "When you talk about the Tao with ordinary people, you can only explain it in simple terms, and you can talk about philosophy, reasoning, and morality. And my Taoism is the essence of righteousness, and it has its own strict rules since ancient times, how can it be said in the public?"
"It's not easy to remember that your thousand-year-old cultivation is not easy, so let's hurry back to the river."
It turns out that this woman is a yang fish in the Qingjiang River, the yang fish is also called "yin and yang fish", growing in the crack of the canyon, the ditch does not see the sun all year round, it is the water of extreme cold and extreme yin, even if it is the dog time, it is also cold and biting. The magic of nature can never escape the law of yin and yang.
Lao Tzu said: "Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law of the Tao, and the Tao is the law of nature." This nature is the eternal and unchanging law that governs the universe. The pole of things must be opposed, the anode produces yin, and the cathode produces yang, which is also an excellent example of the harmony of yin and yang in all things.
The woman said, "If you know where I come from, you must know that we fish hate humans!" Thinking of my nature, all things have their own way of survival, the well water does not interfere with the river water, and does not invade each other. But you humans have relied on the superiority of the primate to hunt and kill our fish, even in our extreme yin land. As soon as many caviar children grow up, they become the stuff of human beings."
"I'm here today, not for anything else, just to ask the chief, I'm a fish race, but I'm born with human food?" The woman, with a pair of blank eyes, asked me.
"This is not something I can answer, nature is everything, the law of the jungle has a very clear food chain. People eat fish, fish eat shrimp, shrimp eat microorganisms, and microorganisms eventually come to humans and eat people, and so on, as you said, shrimp is born as your fish ingredient?" I asked.
"This ......" the woman did not expect, and did not know how to answer.
At this time, Dinghaizhu was already hot to the eye, and I shouted, "Don't you go quickly, wait for me to break your body!"
When the woman heard this, she suddenly knelt down to the ground and said, "Chief, save me!"
Elaborating on the reason, it turns out that she has been practicing in the Qingjiang River for nearly 900 years, and in the first 500 years, she was born by gathering yin qi in the stream of the canyon, but she has never been able to obtain its mystery. Until one day, I heard a few Taoists who came to travel say when strolling by the river, that cultivation needs to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, so that the yin and yang are combined, and then run the qi of Zhou Tian to continue to practice, in order to achieve a small success, so I followed the stream all the way upstream and swam to the Qingjiang River.
After 400 years, when the fifteenth moon is full, he will look at the moon and worship, and during the day, he will absorb the aura of the sun, and over time, he can transform into a human form.
As the saying goes: human beings are rare. For cultivating animals, it already takes hundreds or thousands of years of hard work to get into human form, and if they want to transcend the Three Realms and not be bound by the Five Elements, they have to go through several eons.
In the past one or two years, the Qingjiang River has been caused by various natural conditions, the water flow has plummeted, and most of the 800 miles of Qingjiang River has become a very small stream, so there are fewer and fewer fish in the water, and there are countless predators, and the fish tribes in the river are facing extinction for a while.
In desperation, she led the fish upstream, finding a sparsely populated spot with deep currents in order to save her life. I don't want to have a very powerful person in the river recently, every day it seems to know where the fish gather, the net is not empty, and the timing of each net is extremely accurate, so that the fish are panicked all day.
It was because she heard that the Taoist of Longhu Mountain had come to preach recently, so she had the heart to seek the Tao. Transformed into a human form and mixed in to listen to the sermon.
However, what he talked about was Yili and Taoism, and there was no real way to practice, so I was quite disappointed, so I came over to make trouble when I was leaving, and let out a long-standing resentment against human beings.
I didn't want to be exposed as soon as I opened my mouth, I was extremely frightened at first, for fear of my life, and then saw that I had no intention of harming them, so I begged if I could rescue them, otherwise the whole tribe would be captured and extinct if it continued like this.
The indiscriminate fishing of human beings has gone so far as to leave no virtue for a good life, until the animals are extinct one by one, and they still do not know how to stop it.
Nature is not unique to human beings, but the common home of all life. If one day there is only one human creature on earth, I believe that the extinction of human beings is not far away.
The Taoist catastrophe is 129,600 years, and every catastrophe will be destroyed once, and the earth has experienced countless civilizations to extinction, and then derived and extinct for billions of years. The so-called extremes of things must be reversed, the moon is full, the water is full, and when the human race develops to the extreme, it is the time when the human race is going to perish.
