Other words. In the end, there is no right or wrong way to comprehend the mental method.

Liu Xiaohua took the heart method and went to the senior brother.

Zhang Fengnian was picking up medicinal herbs, and several disciples were helping on the side. Seeing Liu Xiaohua coming, Zhang Fengnian kept his hands on and asked, "Do you recognize this?" ”

Liu Xiaohua walked over and picked up one, looked at it carefully, and said, "This is Zhu Yucao." It resembles a leek, and the flowers that bloom are cyan. When a person eats it, he will not feel hungry. It is used to make Bigu Dan. ”

Zhang Fengnian was in a good mood and asked: "I'm going out of the mountain tomorrow, you don't pack your things well, what's the matter with coming here?" ”

"I just think it's weird." Liu Xiaohua took out the mental method and asked puzzledly: "Senior brother, who is the handwriting on this, is there any record?" ”

"What are you asking for?"

"I just want to know how they're doing when they're not alive in the end. How to cultivate. "I don't know anything about cultivation, and I can't tell which people are right and who is wrong. I thought that I could find out from their current encounters. ”

Zhang Fengnian praised her a little and taught her: "There is never a right or wrong way to practice the mental method. ”

Liu Xiaohua hurriedly asked: "How to practice this Heart Sutra, isn't there a fixed number?" ”

Zhang Fengnian put down the medicinal materials in his hand and said, "The Heart Sutra is not comparable to swordsmanship and martial arts, there are moves and routines. It's just right to learn to be able to follow the analogy at a glance. When I first entered the seminary, I had doubts. But then I was relieved. No matter how you understand it, as long as you hope that you will become stronger and stronger, and practice diligently in the way of understanding, you will definitely succeed in learning. ”

Liu Xiaohua couldn't help but sigh at the miracle of heaven. Completely out of her cognition.

But while sighing, there are still some faint doubts. Curious, he asked, "How did the heavens do it?" ”

"What and how?" Zhang Fengnian asked rhetorically.

"How can we make these practices completely different, or even opposite, succeed in the end?"

Zhang Fengnian had never met a disciple who asked himself such a question.

Perhaps at the beginning, he also had such doubts, but it was just a fleeting thought, and he soon accepted the definition of omnipotence from God, and what was originally incomprehensible became common sense accepted by everyone, and no one thought about these unanswered questions anymore.

Now Liu Xiaohua is like a newborn baby, full of curiosity about the whole world, these things that are just common sense in the eyes of others are incomparably novel and mysterious in her eyes. She brought it up so much that he couldn't answer, "The mysteries of the Heavenly Dao are probably not something that we mortals can comprehend." ”

Liu Xiaohua felt that this sentence was no different from what she had heard before: 'You will understand when you grow up'. The child asks the parent, 'Why is the sun round?' You will get such a perfunctory answer. But the sun is round for a reason. Although the two worlds are different, they both have their own laws, and everything in the world exists, grows, and dies according to the laws. What kind of law is it that makes everyone right?

Liu Xiaohua thought that there must be a commonality behind the understanding of these people and the method of practicing the Heart Sutra.

At this point, everyone follows the law of the law, so although everyone looks different on the surface, the result is right.

But what is the commonality between killing and saving people? Advocating a wide spiritual vein to spread all over the body is not at all similar to those who advocate that the spiritual energy is united on the spiritual platform.

It's like two people, one says the sun is round, and the other says the sun is square. Both turned out to be right.

Liu Xiaohua knew that she couldn't get an answer here in Zhang Fengnian, so she quit and went to the main hall.

She thought, Master must have the answer.

But when she walked into the courtyard and thought of Master's body, she stopped again. Master must still be resting. He was in such poor health that he couldn't work anymore.

When the disciple guarding the door saw Liu Xiaohua coming, he smiled and lowered his voice and said, "Master Fang Cai woke up and asked about Uncle Fang." But after a while, I fell asleep. Why don't you come back tomorrow? ”

"Is Master feeling better?" Liu Xiaohua hurriedly asked.

The disciple sighed and did not speak. Seeing that Liu Xiaohua was also worried, he immediately said: "Uncle Xiao will practice hard in the future, and if you have the ability, maybe one day you will be able to cure the illness of the master." "Like a child.

Liu Xiaohua was very serious: "What is Master's illness?" ”

The disciple probably thought she was amused and said, "Shizun is a disease of losing heart. In fact, most of the Venerable Masters who have cultivated to high levels have this problem. After a long life expectancy and a long lifespan, it is inevitable that this will happen. It's just that Shizun hurt his foundation because of Uncle Liu's affairs, so he was extra strict. There is a rumor in the world that "if you enter the cultivation gate, you will embark on the road of no return, and if you can't become an immortal, you will only die and die" is not groundless. Is Uncle Xiao afraid of it? ”

"Is it either dead or alive?" Liu Xiaohua remembered that Ah Xin also said this a long time ago.

At that time, she didn't understand anything.

She looked up and smiled at the disciple, "I'm not afraid. I have seen the suffering of the world, all of them are like ants, just having the breath to live for a long time. The only chance to change one's fate is probably to be reincarnated as a new person, cast a good fetus, and hope to have a good life. But I don't want to put my fate entirely on the will of God, who knows how it will be arranged? Rely on oneself to be stable. Just think that the life span of those reincarnations will be over. If you don't become an immortal, you won't lose. ”

It's like playing a game. Some people started too badly and thought about it as soon as possible and had another set. I don't know what the random attributes will be like in the next game.

But some people are willing to turn the situation around slowly. During the long years of monasticism, I lived the life I wanted to live on my own.

The disciple was stunned for a moment. I didn't know how to answer for a while.

Inside, Liu Yourong's voice came out, "Is Xiaoliu here?" ”

"Yes." Liu Xiaohua was overjoyed and strode indoors. The disciple looked at her back, and couldn't help but think, this is not a disciple selected by the master, and he doesn't look outstanding, but his mood is different.

Liu Yourong sat up from the collapse, looking good, not much different from a healthy person, but he didn't seem to be in a good mood and was depressed.

It seems that the death of the Holy Emperor and the fact that Liu Ajiao may not have been taken away by Lin Shangzhi gave him a big blow, coupled with Liu Xiaohua's previous words, which poked straight to the softest place in his heart. Then there is a state of mind that there is no love.

"I went to ask Senior Brother about my practice, and when I came back and passed by here, I wanted to see how you are, Master, and are you still uncomfortable?" Liu Xiaohua asked with concern.

Liu Yourong showed a faint smile: "It's just an old problem." What do you ask him? Can you solve the puzzle? ”

Liu Xiaohua changed her mind, not wanting him to work hard, and said, "It's nothing." I just want to learn more about pills. He also mentioned that the senior brother was going to take his new disciples out to practice. After she finished speaking, seeing that Liu Yourong's face was dejected, and she was not energetic, she said seriously: "Master, don't worry, when I become more powerful in the future, I will definitely cure Master's illness." Master doesn't have to be so uncomfortable. Master, okay, wait for me to grow up, right? ”

Liu Yourong reached out and touched her head, and said with a little wistfulness: "Xiaoliu is the most well-behaved. After speaking, I was in poor spirits, and after saying that, I was stunned for a while before I came back to my senses and said: "When it comes to cultivating the Tao, even I don't dare to claim to know anything, let alone talk about your senior brother?" There are times when you can't answer. There are many classics in my study, which I have collected over the years. If you don't understand anything, you can look through it. It may not be possible to make a profit. I think I understand that Liu Xiaohua sympathizes with him. But he avoided Liu Xiaohua's question. I just stared at one place and didn't know what I was thinking.

Liu Xiaohua was a little flustered in her heart, she always felt that it was not good for him to be like this, so she smiled reluctantly and made a curious look: "Master, do you know that I am from the Nansi Branch?" Actually, I'm going to call you the fourth uncle. ”

"Really?" Liu Yourong's expression was a little more vivid: "How are the people of the four branches in the south?" ”

"The seventh uncle asked the people of the four southern branches to guard the mountain. His own branch opened a stone vein at the peak of the chicken's neck. My dad was also working there, and he was later eaten by a glutton. At that time, a lot of people died, but they didn't get any help from the clan. Because I couldn't survive in the village, I went out to the mountains with the people of the village to earn a living. And he told him what had happened along the way.

"Yes." Liu Yourong paused, but he didn't care too much.

Liu Xiaohua hurriedly said, "Master, it's better to help them." "It's good to let him run around for something, and to have a concern.

To rectify the people of the Liu family is not a difficult thing for Liu Yourong. It would also be a good thing to be able to establish a new system that is fair to everyone. saved the people from suffering what she had suffered.

"Every man has a destiny. The cycle of life and death continues. Save a time, but you can't save a lifetime. I can save a generation, but I can't save a generation. Liu Yourong closed his eyes, looking a little tired. Reaching out and patting her head gently: "It's so childish." ”

He has been in the cultivation sect for many years, and he must have looked down on the worldly family affection. Liu Xiaohua looked at the young face in front of her, Liu Yourong showed boredom and exhaustion all over her body, and she was not angry at all. It seems that although he is still alive, there is no one in this world who is worthy of his more glances and more questions. Even if he was going to die now, he wouldn't struggle any longer.

Liu Xiaohua looked at him and felt powerless, not knowing how to redeem it and make him cheer up again. Like someone, and then lose her, it is such a terrible thing, more ferocious than the poison that pierces the intestines in the world, after all, poison has an antidote, but there is no antidote to this.

She was silent for a long time before she said very far-fetchedly, "Master." In the past, when I saw stray cats and dogs on the side of the road, I would do my best to take care of them. However, the people around me laughed at me and said, if you are kind enough to feed this meal or two, what effect can it play, and in the end, it is not starvation and freezing to death. At first, I thought they were right. But then I thought, maybe they would have starved to death without that meal, but thanks to my feeding, they lived a little longer and found someone willing to adopt them? I did just a small thing, but I changed their fate. Let them survive, and it will be easier for them to live. ”

Liu Yourong crooked on the pillow and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. didn't speak, just slapped his hand on the back of Liu Xiaohua's hand.

Liu Xiaohua thought for a while, and then said, "Master, you must take good care of your illness." What should the brothers do without their master? What if I don't have a Master? This little Penglai also exists in name only. ”

But Liu Yourong did not respond.

Liu Xiaohua knew that there was no way to persuade him with this kind of thing. He has lived for so many years, watching life and death in the world, and things rise and die, maybe in his heart, Xiao Penglai is simply dispensable. Even this little apprentice who once liked him was dispensable.

Liu Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, and immediately pressed this idea. After all, after people are sad and have suffered too many setbacks, they really can't be interested in anyone or anything. Not that he was so ruthless.

But Liu Xiaohua couldn't think of anything else that could cheer up the master. She lifted her feet, used her little hands to help him straighten his messy hair, and said, "Master." When I come back, I'll bring you good food and fun. Good no good? Although Master is more knowledgeable than me, the world is so big that there are many wonders, and there may be things that even Master has not seen. ”

Liu Yourong opened his eyes to look at her, probably because he was a little unbearable, and said lightly: "Okay." And he said, "Thou hast always been a good man." ”

Liu Xiaohua breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the yard, and stood outside the door for a while.

Liu Yourong has cultivated for thousands of years, but he still couldn't get out of it, and he was trapped to death by a love word. Love is born and people live, love dies and people die. What kind of person is that Liu Ajiao? How can she be virtuous, why does she have such luck to let a character like Liu Yourong live and die for her. What did she do that deserved to be done for her? It's just a selfish person.

For a moment, Liu Xiaohua simply hated this woman. She also wished that she would be able to understand everything in an instant, and her cultivation would be unfathomable, and she would cure her master's illness with a wave of her hand, and then make him forget these past things. Among the vast spells in the world, there must be one that has this effect, right?

Hurry up and become stronger, Liu Xiaohua felt that she had no time to waste, and went directly to the study. After all, she was leaving tomorrow, and she wanted to take this opportunity to see if there were any books in the study that could solve her doubts.

Liu Yourong's study was large and tidy, and there was no one to guard it outside, so as soon as the door was pushed, it opened in response. It was frighteningly large, full of books on three sides, classified by pills, runes, miscellaneous notes, and codex. There are also some casually pushed on the desk.

To find the answer from these books, I am afraid it is not a matter of a moment.

Liu Xiaohua made herself calm down. Walked over to the table and flipped through a few books on the desk. It is about spiritual veins and meditation, and it is very simple. Presumably Liu Yourong found it out for her at the beginning, but there were too many things that happened later, so he didn't care about giving it to her. Among those books, there is also one that is of rough grade. It's about the difference between the ranks of monks.

Liu Xiaohua was immediately attracted. Sit down and look at it seriously.

The book says that monks are divided into three grades, upper, middle and lower, but among these three grades, there is a world of difference between the best and the worst. There are only about twelve top monks who can be called supreme. There is also Liu Yourong in it, but the name behind it is not Xiao Penglai, but the Evergreen Sect.

Liu Xiaohua thought that Xiao Penglai was a branch belonging to the Evergreen Sect.

Continue to stay and see, in addition to Liu Yourong, there is another person in the Evergreen Sect. Of the other ten people, six were from the country. And the name is at the top. The remaining four places belong to each of the four denominations.

Guozong accounts for a large proportion of this ranking, and its strength can be seen.

Liu Xiaohua sighed, at any time, the powerful always get better resources, and it is no wonder that there are many talents.

Then she picked up the meditation book and compared it with the Heart Sutra in her hand. The notes on the Heart Sutra and this book both say that the Lingtai is hidden in the dantian. The first step in the practice is to sense the altar.

This is almost the only thing that is universally recognized in all the notes of the Heart Sutra. There are also people who especially point out this sentence, and there are several circles drawn on it, with different shades of ink, which seem to be different people.

Liu Xiaohua calmed down, arranged the posture mentioned in the book to sit down, and tried to sense the spiritual platform.

But she didn't think that she didn't see the white expanse as described in the book, or any other strange scene.

She sat there, she really sat there, and she didn't feel anything special. The dantian is also empty, and there is no warm force as others say.

She tried, and again.

The more you try, the cooler it gets.

She was worried, is it possible that Senior Brother's judgment was wrong, there was no problem with that stone at all, and the person with the problem was her, and she had no qualifications to practice at all?

But what about the white light that came out of her hand?

Liu Xiaohua forced herself not to panic. But her heart was still pounding. Cultivation can be said to be her only way out, and she found that there was no spiritual platform in her dantian, how could she not be in a hurry.

She closed her eyes and sat for a while before she opened them again, and this time she did not rush to meditate, but picked up the Heart Sutra again, carefully studying the notes of those ancestors, trying to find an ancestor who was in the same situation as herself.

But although she turned the Heart Sutra from beginning to end, and did not even let go of the small words in the heart, no one mentioned this situation.

But in retrospect, she does seem to have heard that even if you are born as a human being, you are born with a spiritual platform. It's just that the Lingtai is different from bad, just like Sanzhi, she couldn't make the stone light up, but there is also a Lingtai, but it's too weak for the stone to come out. Finally, at the gate of the clan school, didn't she also make the beads on the door shine?

Since it is impossible for people not to have a spiritual platform, how could she Liu Xiaohua not have it?

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaohua calmed down a little.

She believed that she must have taken the wrong step to find the spiritual platform. She decided to try again, and this time, she was more careful with each step, following what the book says.

She crossed her feet and placed her hands on her knees. Breathe down the dantian and slow down your breathing rhythmically......
