Chapter 55 The good is like water, and it rises when it falls

On the top of the snow-capped mountains, the wind gusts.

The young Dongluo sat opposite an old Taoist priest.

Dongluo took out two pots of Du Kang wine from the mustard seeds, slapped the mud seal with one palm, and handed a pot to the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest was also not angry, and took a big sip after taking it, "It's still a taste of wine in the world." ”

Dongluo smacked his mouth vigorously, "Actually, I want to taste the Immortal Family's treasured wine, jade liquid elixir, what kind of taste it is." ”

The old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "The Immortal Family's Treasure Brew is just like that. Far less than the world's spirits burn their throats. ”

Dongluo blinked, and said with some suspicion: "Old Dao, are you worried that you drank my worldly wine, and you were afraid that I would ask you for a pot of immortal wine to taste, so you deliberately told me this!"

The old Taoist priest seemed to be in a hurry to drink, choked on the wine, and coughed a little or twice, "What do you think of the old Taoist as a person, so to speak, he is also a Taoist figure with a head and a face." As for the immortal wine or something, if it weren't for the poor road and didn't like to drink, I would have to give you ten pots and eight pots today. ”

Dongluo smiled disdainfully, "Come on, I won't ask you for any immortal wine." Last time you told me about your fate, you disappeared in the middle of it, and now you have to tell me about it, what is fate?"

The old Taoist priest seemed to look a little strange, but he quickly returned to normal.

The old Taoist priest put the empty wine jug in his hand at his feet, sorted out his words, and said: "Life is a strange thing, it is like cause and effect, and what is particular is a dark one. What is not clear, and what is not good. ”

The old Taoist priest shook his head.

Dongluo was silent at first, then nodded.

The old Taoist priest grabbed the wine jug that Dongluo had placed at his feet, and drank the little wine left in the jug in one gulp, "Don't talk about fate, I want to talk to you today." It's not easy for me to appear on this dragon path, this dragon gate secret realm is very peculiar, and it can temporarily block the sight of the heavenly path, so there are some things I can only say now. ”

Dongluo put away his smiling expression, sat upright, and waited for the battle.

Chaowen said, death can be carried out.

Listening to the sound of the avenue, not being overwhelmed by a reincarnation.

The middle-aged Taoist priest pulled up his hair that was scattered by the mountain wind, straightened the lotus crown that was a little crooked on his head, straightened the lotus robe, and sat down in a precarious position: "If the Tao is like a river and a river, it will be as holy as the sun and the moon, and there will be spring and autumn in the whole sky." ”

"The seed of the Great Dao adheres to the ruthlessness of the Dao heart, grows and germinates in your body, and has experienced spring glory, autumn withering, and spring rebirth. Zhou Tianzi doesn't want you to die, at least for the time being, so he takes you to the gossip furnace to walk around, and smokes luck, incense, mountain spirits, water spirits, thunder sources and other treasures of heaven and earth to repair your body for you, and sew your body that looks strong, but is actually vulnerable. ”

Dongluo frowned, but still listened attentively.

The old Taoist priest twisted his fingers, and a seed appeared in his midst, took root in his palm, sprouted, and then withered.

As soon as the old Taoist priest opened his mouth and spat out, the seed dispersed with the wind, "Before you, there have been many, many extreme ice bodies in this Divine Continent, but without exception, they all died. Even if they are all people with great karma, in the end, none of them will live. The moment their Great Dao seeds began to germinate, the essence and spirit of their whole bodies were instantly emptied, and then their bodies were wiped out. It's not just the ultimate ice, it's the ultimate fire, and the ultimate time...... None of them survived. But you're not like them, you survived. ”

Dongluo lowered his head and thought for a while, and asked, "When the Great Dao seed germinates in my body, is it when I freeze Wei City." ”

The old Taoist priest nodded, in the eyes of the sage, everything is a line, as long as the thread is picked up from a certain place, the whole line will be clear in their eyes.

But when it comes to the big and small things that winter falls in Weicheng, he has already seen it clearly.

Although Zhou Tianzi can't count the past of Dongluo, he can't count his future. But it is possible to see the past as a bystander, and to see the future.

It's like you can't count which side of a coin is on top, but you can throw that coin out, watch it fall to the ground, and then make sure it's on which side.

Turn two possibilities into one.

Turn all uncertainties into a definitive outcome.

The old Taoist priest asked, "Have you ever seen a banyan tree?"

Dongluo nodded, "Yes." ”

The old Taoist priest continued: "If the Great Dao Seed is compared to a banyan tree seed, then you can be compared to a parasitic tree with a banyan tree seed. While you were freezing Weicheng, the banyan tree seed in your body sprouted. Begin to frantically absorb your host's energy. ”

Dongluo frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Do you mean that the Dao Seed hosts of all kinds of extreme bodies before me were all born by the Dao Seed when the Dao Seed germinated, because their own energy was not enough...... Drain your energy to death?"

The old Taoist priest nodded, twisted his fingers, and another seed appeared in his hand, another round of rooting and germination, but this time the old Taoist priest did not let it wither, but continued to inject spiritual energy into that seedling.

The seedlings grew bigger and bigger, growing into a towering tree that gradually covered the entire mountain.

The old Taoist priest held the towering tree in his hand, "You survived when the Great Dao Seed was raised, so you naturally attracted the attention of the heavens and the world, many people are waiting to see how you die, in order to observe your own way, but Chen Baxian doesn't want you to die, so, the cause and effect you carry are not enough for the growth of the Great Dao Seed, he Chen Baxian will go to find the same God Killer Armor full of cause and effect to take your place." Let the avenue seeds in your body continue to grow. ”

Dongluo raised his head and stared at the old Taoist priest with red eyes, "So, if I live, he will die?"

Although the old Taoist priest didn't want to admit it, he still nodded bitterly.

Because that's just the way it is.

Dongluo clenched his fists and slammed his fist into the sharp stone beside him, blood flowing.

Dongluo gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Who is it?"

The old Taoist priest didn't speak, but just stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky.

The results speak for themselves.

Dongluo knows that this day is not the other day.

The old Taoist priest continued: "I said this before, just to let you understand that everything in the world has a cause and an effect, and if there is an effect, there is a cause. Okay, then, I'll move on. ”

Dongluo looked up at the sky fiercely, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "You say! ”

No wonder Zhou Tianzi said that there are several different causes and effects in me, some of which he is familiar with and some that he is not familiar with, and in the end, whether I choose to swing a knife to cut it off or choose to uproot it depends on myself.

Unexpectedly, I realized that I had already walked on the path of cultivation on the Dragon Path, and I was just about to see myself as a cultivator, so you let me see the cruelty and ruthlessness between this cultivator first.

Even if everyone is cruel, Dongluo sneered, then it goes without saying, of course, it is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and uproot it!

Some of the words stopped at the point, and after too much, the old Taoist priest continued: "Even if Chen Ba first found you some god-killing armor to serve as nourishment for the Great Dao seeds, it is still not enough, and your body is also deteriorating, so Chen Baxian called you to Luoyang before he died, just to let you come to Zhou Tianzi." Chen Ba first wanted you to live, and Zhou Tianzi, who was good friends with him, naturally didn't want you to die. ”

The old Taoist priest looked a little embarrassed, "However, since the last time I told your fortune in Luoyang City, I can't see what you did in Luoyang City clearly." ”

Dongluo's heart is still immersed in the true cause of Chen Baxian's death.

If the Luoyang Hundred Clans just exiled Chen Baxian, in fact, they really killed, no, there were other people who forced Chen Baxian to death.

Dongluo looked up at the void again, as long as I am alive, even one day, I will find you along this ethereal line of cause and effect.

Dongluo said in a deep voice: "After you told my fortune, I started from the economic aspect, and took the opportunity to exile several high-ranking officials who participated in the exile of my father back then, and also hollowed out the heritage of several families in Luoyang City. Then, thanks to Chen Batian's blessing, I saw the so-called Great Dao Seed, as well as the villain who was conceived by the karmic fire of the Red Lotus on the Divine Killing Armor. ”

The old Taoist priest listened carefully, since the last time he detained the young man in front of him in a small world of his own in Luoyang City, committed Zhou Tianzi's taboo, and was slapped out of Luoyang City by Zhou Tianzi with a palm, he can no longer watch Luoyang City by means of gods.

When he heard that Dongluo had turned around the hundreds of officials and dozens of families in Luoyang with his wits alone, he couldn't help but applaud.

Dongluo carefully sorted out the bits and pieces in Luoyang City recently, "Later, when I went to hang the iron chain hanging inside the qanats, which is part of the god-killing armor, I met Zhou Tianzi, and he took me around Luoyang City. ”

The old Taoist priest waved his hand and said: "Luoyang City is actually the gossip furnace, and each district is a hexagram. Now that you've said that, it all makes sense. ”

Dongluo was a little puzzled, and there were some things he had discussed with Xue Nianci countless times, but there was no reasonable and unified result.

It's not that they're not smart enough, it's that their horizons aren't wide enough and they don't stand high enough, so it's inevitable that there will be some misunderstandings or deviations about what they see.

The old Taoist priest stood up and paced back and forth on the top of the mountain, as if thinking about something.

After a while, the old Taoist priest finally figured it out, patted his head and said excitedly: "I know Zhou Tianzi's purpose." ”

The doubts in Dongluo's eyes were even worse. It's not that I haven't guessed the thoughts of these big people, but it's either very different, or I have seen too little.

It's like someone holding up a finger and asking you what is this?

You won't hesitate to say it's one.

But he ignores that it's also a finger.

The old Taoist priest sat back in front of Dongluo again, "The Great Dao Seed has once again perfected the Divine Killing Armor to fight with each other, check and balance each other, and no one dares to make a rash move." Then your body can take a good break for a while. Obviously, Zhou Tianzi not only saw it, but also seized this opportunity. ”

The old Taoist priest punched his thigh with some excitement, "Do you feel that your current body is gradually getting better?"

Dongluo closed his eyes and felt it, "I'm sure it's getting better." ”

The old Taoist priest seemed to have firm up the guess in his heart, "If your previous body was a house with leaks on all sides, then after Zhou Tianzi took you through the gossip furnace, your house is not only no longer leaking, but also stronger and stronger than before." ”

The old Taoist priest laughed, "Zhou Tianzi is Zhou Tianzi! I only dare to borrow the moment when the Dragon Dao blinded the Heavenly Dao to come here to meet you for a short time, but I didn't expect that he, Zhou Tianzi, would come violently and directly draw his salary from the bottom of the kettle." Zhou Tianzi, what a fierce man! I obeyed the old way, and I was convinced. ”

Dongluo asked suspiciously, "What fierce?"

The old Taoist priest's smile was a little strange, "You don't need to know, and you don't have to know." For the next trip to the Longmen Secret Realm, you just have to compete for the opportunity, and fight for everything. Whether it's useful or not, let's fight first. ”

Dongluo looked at the old Taoist priest with his eyes shining and his smile a little strange, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

As for the opportunity in the Dragon Gate Secret Realm, he will definitely fight for it.

If it's not his, he's going to fight for it.

It's his, and no one wants to take it.

The old Taoist priest took out a pot of wine with some distress, "This is the Wanguo Brew from Dongsheng Shenzhou, which is brewed with tens of thousands of immortal fruits and fairy grasses, you can save some drink! ”

Dongluo jumped up angrily, "Old man, are you cursed me to death! Knowing that I am going to enter the secret realm of Longmen, knowing that I want to taste the Xianjia liquor, you are not at ease, you want me to eat and drink well, so that I can go on the road with peace of mind! There is Xianjia liquor, I have drunk it well, but there is no appetizer, how can I eat well? How can I go on the road with peace of mind." ”

The old Taoist priest and the old god were looking at the clouds under the mountainside, and they didn't speak.

Load, you keep loading. If you want to eat and drink, just tell me! Even if you do, I won't give it.

But what do you mean by such a roundabout thing!

The old Taoist priest closed his eyes and listened to the gust of mountain wind.

The mountain wind cleanses my ears, and the red dust trains my heart.

The more Dongluo spoke, the quieter his voice became, and he took the Wanguo Brew with a little weakness and took a sip of it carefully.

The strength of the wine is not large, and the alcohol is also called wetness.

If you don't have a snack, you can't have it!

This green mountain and white waves are the best appetizers in the world.

The old Taoist priest quietly took out a pot of wine and took a sip, as if he felt that something was missing.

There are fewer drinking friends, and there is less appetizers.

The old Taoist priest was extremely reluctant, and took out some precious fruits and dried meat and placed them in front of the two.

There are snacks for drinks, and there seems to be no shortage of drinking friends.

There is one that can be drunk more than yourself.

The old Taoist priest was in a good mood, and after a few sips of wine, he talked more, "I won't talk about Zhou Tianzi's plan on you, Bi Jing has no secrets in this world." You just have to know that he's doing it for your good. ”

Dongluo said disdainfully: "I don't think you dare to say it!

The old Taoist priest looked a little embarrassed, his face was flushed, and his old face was hot and painful.

Dongluo's face is a little weird, can't this old boy really suffer a big loss under Zhou Tianzi's hands!

Poked him in the sore spot?

Dongluo immediately laughed and said: "Old Daoist, is your wine stronger than mine! Look at your old face, it is as red as a monkey's ass, or do you always drink on your face!"

The old Taoist priest's smile was a little strange, and he hurriedly said haha: "It's a little face, it's a little face." But, you've got a lot more stamina than mine, so you have to be prepared!"

Dongluo's face was a little stiff, and he looked down at the wine jug that was about to bottom.

What will be the stamina of the Xianjia liquor? He really didn't know.

Last time I was in the Snow Clan, I gave him wine, but it was a normal market drink!

In winter, the heart is horizontal, what are you afraid of, people are dead.

Drink the fuck. This is a fairy wine!

Winter took a sip and drank the rest of the wine in the pot.

If the wine is strong, the wine will be strong! Let him go.

The old Taoist priest gave Dongluo a thumbs up and said, "What a hero!"

Dongluo burped.

The old Taoist priest picked up a piece of jerky and put it in his mouth, "Zhou Tianzi spent a lot of money to build your body into a natural human body. Now wait for the Great Dao seed in your body to mature under the impetus of the Red Lotus Leaf Fire. As for the end, it was you, the host, who swallowed the Great Dao Seed, or the Great Dao Seed that swallowed you. Don't let down Zhou Tianzi's high hopes for you!"

Dongluo nodded, indicating that his kindness to Zhou Tianzi was silently remembered in his heart.

As long as you don't look for death by yourself, your lifespan will be much longer than that of ordinary people, so the incense between cultivators is also different from ordinary people.

Ordinary people want to be famous and profitable, but they only want to get immediate results. And the incense between cultivators and cultivators pays attention to a long stream.

The old Taoist priest continued: "Your body will be a battlefield of ice and fire, and you have to live well in the Dragon Gate Secret Realm. When the battle between the Extreme Ice and the Red Lotus Karmic Fire is over, the reason why you are allowed to enter the Dragon Gate Secret Realm is because the induction of the Heavenly Dao in the Dragon Gate Secret Realm is very weak, which can weaken the power of the Extreme Ice to a certain extent. ”

No wonder Zhou Tianzi said that his life path was in the secret realm of Longmen, so it was.

Dongluo squinted his eyes and looked at the sea of clouds on the mountainside for a while, only the sky was above, and there were no mountains and Qi.

Under such a magnificent landscape, it is easier for a person to feel heroic.

Dongluo got up and spat lightly at the tumbling sea of clouds, "I will try to survive in the secret territory of Longmen." ”

The old Taoist priest looked at the thin young man in front of him and said, "I believe you can live." ”

Dongluo looked back at the old Taoist, "Didn't you come here to tell me about the Tao Te Ching?"

The old Taoist priest nodded, "I really wanted to tell you about the Tao Te Ching before I came, but after I saw you, I thought about it seriously, so I still don't say it! ”

Dongluo's forehead was straight with black lines, and he couldn't help but want to scold his mother, but he still stiffened.

The old Taoist priest seemed to feel that something was wrong, "I'll tell you a word! The good is like water, and the water benefits all things without fighting." Read the Tao Te Ching carefully and figure out what is indisputable? And the essence of ice is water, and the essence of the Tao Te Ching is also water. ”

Goodness is like water, and water benefits all things without fighting.

Indisputable?

What is contention? What is indisputable?

Dongluo said with some doubts: "But the cultivation induction chapter, let us all be like dragons, competing for it! Tao Te Ching but let us not fight......?

Dongluo's eyes were full of doubts, one was the method that cultivators were practicing, and the other was the Taoist masterpiece.

How should this be? to fight or not to fight?

The old Taoist priest's heart was full of appreciation, "When you understand how all living beings are dragons, you will know whether to fight or not." Jump down! The secret realm of the Dragon Gate is in the sea of clouds. ”

Dongluo looked at the sea of clouds again, and was stunned for a long time, and he didn't know what he was thinking?

The old Taoist priest didn't say anything to urge, and he was also looking at the young man's back in a daze, and he didn't know what he was thinking?

Winter falls, winter falls.

Easy to fall? Easy to fall?

The old Taoist priest looked up at the sky, Master, you changed my Dao name to Yi Luo, and said that I rose when I fell. But after years of ups and downs, who will end up with that word?

Could it be him?

Let's hope it's him in the end!

The straw sandals are broken and put down like this, and the shoulders are worn through and ascend step by step.

The old Taoist priest Yi Luo stood up and looked at the sky, which seemed to be getting lower and lower.

The old Taoist priest Yi Luo smiled at the sky mockingly, and his figure exploded and collapsed in an instant.

Dongluo put his thumb and index finger in front of his eyes, pinched it lightly, as if holding a thread, and then suddenly lifted it up.

The sea of clouds instantly surged and rolled, and the turmoil continued.

It seems that someone is in the middle of nowhere, setting off a wind.

Dongluo glanced back at the empty body behind him, his arms open.

Leaning back, he jumped up.

Fell into a sea of rolling clouds.
