Chapter 9 My Way is also the Way of Plants and Trees
It was just noon, and Tuoba Yi, who returned to the tent, took out the "Grass Dance" printed with the wooden attribute of the "Grass Dance" from his arms, and placed it on the wooden table with a strong frown. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
A row of purple tadpoles flickered and floated in the sea of knowledge, although there were only a few words, but it was written: "If you want to practice the grass dance, you must first understand the way of heaven and earth, and then you can practice the grass dance." ”
"No wonder no one in the clan chose this brute decision, no wonder this brute was placed in the last room, who can tell me what the way of grass and trees is."
Withdrawing from his divine sense, Tuoba Yi sighed, and now he is beginning to regret it, when Elder Shaoqing wanted to let him choose other barbarian duels, why did he be as tough as a white donkey.
Tuoba Yi frowned and kept shaking his head.
"The Way of Grass and Trees? Is it just grass and trees? , If that's the case, then I can ask the third master, he should know better than me in this regard" A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he actually thought of the third master refining pills in the tribe from the word grass and trees, anyway, he didn't contribute to the new brute decision, and he couldn't ask Elder Shaoqing to let him choose again, so everything could only rely on himself.
With that, Tuoba hurriedly stuffed the wooden sign into his arms and ran to the tent where the third master was.
The third master's tent could smell a faint fragrance of herbs from afar, and Tuoba Yi could find it even if he had his eyes closed.
Walking into the tent, the walls of the tent were covered with all kinds of dried herbs, and there was a slowly smoking bronze medicine pod in the middle as before, and the house was full of the smell of choking people.
"Third Master" Tuoba Yi shouted at the low little old man in front of the medicine tripod.
"Hmmm..!" The third master was sitting in front of the medicine tripod and taking a nap, and when he heard someone calling for himself, he responded vaguely.
"Third master, this is the sweat and blood grass I picked two days ago, I put it here for you."
"Hmmm..!"
Tuoba Yi put the sweat and blood grass in his hand on the table full of air-dried herbs, and twisted: "Third master, what is the way of plants and trees?" ”
"Hmm... Well? What did you say? The third master suddenly came to his senses, opened his cloudy eyes and asked.
"I said what is the way of grass and trees," Tuoba Yi said again, and bit each one very clearly.
"Xiao Yi, why are you suddenly asking this" The third master asked curiously with a smile.
"It's because I chose the herb dance in the Barbarian Pavilion," Tuoba Yi said embarrassedly.
"You? Haha" The third master laughed when he heard it, and slapped his face a few times, "Are you full?" Why did you choose that brute book? ”
Tuoba Yi's face suddenly darkened, and he told the third master about how he met Wu Hao, how he was humiliated by Wu Yu, and how he boasted to Elder Shaoqing.
The third master's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "Xiao Yi, do you really want to learn this grass dance?" ”
"Hmm," Tuoba Yi said seriously.
The third master stared at Tuoba Yi for five or six seconds, and when he saw Tuoba Yi's resolute face, he said: "Xiao Yi, you sit down first, I will only say these words once, and if you can't remember them, you have to memorize them!" ”
Tuoba sat down and was silent, even he didn't know why he believed what the third master said, but he only tried his best to remember every word that the third master said, and his expression was very serious and solemn.
The third master looked at Tuoba Yi and smiled kindly: "Plants and trees are born with heaven and earth, if you understand plants and trees, you will understand heaven and earth, heaven and earth are accompanied, plants and trees are mutual, plants and trees have lives, diseases and pain are self-aware, and only by knowing plants and trees can you be sensible, and the most used of plants and trees is alchemy, and alchemy is also refining heaven and earth, and the pill is against fate, but it is also against the sky, you come and see....
Although Tuoba Yi pointed at it, he saw that there was an extra sweat and blood grass in the third master's hand, and the third master still maintained a kind smile: "Xiao Yi, this is the easiest herb you usually pick, do you know how many changes are hidden in this sweat and blood grass?" Which herbs will be combined with what new elixirs? ”
"I don't know."
"The old man told you that there are thirteen changes in this sweat and blood grass, and when combined with the purple orchid root, you can refine the Qi Condensing Pill that you often eat, and do you know how many medicinal properties each of the sweat blood grass and the purple orchid root can be used to refine the Qi Condensing Pill?"
"I don't know."
"Then the old man will tell you again, the medicinal properties of the sweat and blood grass must be seven-tenths, and the medicinal properties of the purple orchid root must be two-tenths to refine this Qi Condensing Pill, let me ask you, how much heat do you need to master to refine this Qi Condensing Pill?"
"I don't know."
"The old man told you that you must master the four points of fire..... and those four points of fire are the way. The Way of Grass and Trees! So, what is the way of plants and trees? ”
Speaking of this, Tuoba Yi no longer said "I don't know", the third master asked four kinds of questions, Tuoba Yi said three words of ignorance, when the third master answered these three questions for him, he chose to be silent, and when the third master said the answer to the fourth question, he still chose to be silent, if the first three questions and answers, he was doubting, then the fourth question and answer, he was thinking, until the third master asked the fifth question, he became an understanding.
Let the body experience, let the mind understand!
The third master didn't urge him, just looked at him quietly on the side, looking at him was like looking at himself back then, and tirelessly comprehending the meaning of every sentence that this master told him, the same demeanor, the same temperament, and even the eyes were exactly the same.
It wasn't until Tuoba Yi's eyes lit up that the third master slowly spoke: "Xiao Yi, do you understand?" ”
Tuoba Yi smiled faintly and said, "I'm even more confused. ”
Who knew that the third master was not angry when he heard this, but laughed and said: "It's good to be confused, it's good to be confused." ”
-- It is indeed better to be confused than to be confused, to know is to have true understanding, to pretend to understand and half-understand, but to be confused is only confused and more confused.
But Tuoba Yi belongs to more confused people, and more confused people are not confused, he is smarter than anyone else, and more confused and wise and foolish are just a line apart.
Tuoba Yi also smiled and closed his eyes again, but as soon as he closed his eyes, the face of the third master who was smiling on the side showed a touch of imperceptible worry, even so, the third master did not mention too much, this is Tuoba Yi's realization, he just stopped at the point, even if he said more, it was useless.
Closed eyes, in his mind he is like facing a bronze mirror, click through this layer of window paper only need to recognize the "stranger" in the bronze mirror is himself, if he recognizes himself, then he can recognize all the world, on the contrary, if he can't recognize clearly, then he will eventually indulge in front of the mirror for the rest of his life, unable to extricate himself.
Time is like passing at the fingertips, always making people unconsciously sigh that life is short, when facing the "stranger" in the mirror, Tuoba Yi looked dazed, he looked at the "stranger" in the bronze mirror a little familiar, but also a little afraid.
Familiarity comes from the bottom of his heart, Tuoba Yi is in a dark space, he has to be cautious and nervous, but this trace of cautious nervousness has become an opportunity to prevent him from recognizing himself, he didn't know what he was doing in the first place, how could he know what he was about to face, and that fear came from his ignorance.
"Who are you?"
"Who are you?"
Tuoba Yi looked embarrassed, looking at the "stranger" in the bronze mirror suspiciously, messy hair, delicate facial features, muscular arms, and a pair of energetic and capable clothes, but his skin was slightly dull, he really felt that he had seen him somewhere...
"Why are you repeating my words?"
"Why are you repeating my words?"
He listened to the "stranger" in the bronze mirror repeating what he said, and he didn't feel a little angry, his body trembling a little as he stood up straight with his fists clenched, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"I ask again, who are you?"
"I ask again, who are you?"
If you don't say the right thing, you are angry, and Tuoba Yi is already angry at the moment.
"Die!"
"Die!"
Tuoba Yi was not far from the bronze mirror, but he also jumped forward to form a momentum, and his right hand clenched into a fist had been swung out, but the "stranger" in the bronze mirror actually made similar movements, the same jump, the same fist.
"Bang!"
The collision of fists and fists, the battle of strength and power, the resulting impact sound resounded in this space, Tuoba Yi stared at the "stranger" in the bronze mirror, a strange information rushed into his brain, and the familiarity from the bronze mirror suddenly increased.
But it was at this moment that Tuoba Yi's eyes widened and he lost his voice: "How could I be in the bronze mirror!" ”
The wide-eyed Tuoba Yi looked at the "self" in the bronze mirror for a long time, and it was not until he re-scaled his eyes to their original size that he could have figured out many things, some things that he would never have understood.
Looking at himself in the bronze mirror, he muttered: "It turns out that this is the way of grass and trees!" ”
Tuoba Yi opened a pair of black and white eyes, a trace of wisdom flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the third master who had always maintained a kind smile, and the corners of his mouth curled up to know how to laugh only when he and the third master knew how to laugh...
"You know, what is the way of grass and trees!" The third master still asked the same sentence.
Tuoba Yi's eyes were deep, he looked down at his hands and was silent, the only memory of the way of plants and trees that he had left in his mind, and he smiled when he remembered the moment his fist was waved on the bronze mirror.
"Plants and trees exist in the sky, and return to the sky after death, no different from the barbarians, the barbarians cultivate, the cultivation is the brute spirit of heaven and earth, and the brute spirit returns to the sky after death, and then the grass and trees get the way, both the barbarians get the way, the barbarians must be the barbarians of the world, and the grass and trees are nothing more than the same, so I am the grass and trees, so I have the way of the grass and trees, and my way is also the way of the grass and trees!"
Accompanied by the curling smoke rising from the medicine pod, Tuoba Yi spoke in a low voice, as if he was preaching a scripture, every time he said a word, the dried herbs around him would vibrate, and the gentle breeze entered through the door curtain as if he was singing, chanting many mysteries about heaven and earth.
But he couldn't feel this, he was only immersed in his realization, and these subtle changes couldn't escape the sharp eyes of the third master.
When he finished speaking, the dried herbs no longer vibrate, and a few wisps of wind swept by, Tuoba Yi dusted off the dust on his body, but this time he had a little more charm of the third master.
"Third master, am I right?" Tuoba Yi asked the third master with a radiant look.
This time it was the third master's turn to be silent, but the third master's eyes revealed a sense of relief, and looking at Tuoba Yi was like seeing the scene when he first sought the Tao.
I secretly praised in my heart: "It's really stronger than the generation, if I said this to the master back then, maybe the master would be easier to accept myself, but it's a pity!" ”
The third master settled down, cleared the distracting thoughts in his mind and said: "The long road is long, I will go up and down and seek, I will not judge whether what you say is good or not, your own understanding needs to be judged by you in the future." ”
The twilight of a child's life is a long road, no one will make too many comments on their sonorous words back then, at most they laugh it off, different years, different years will produce different thoughts.
"I'm sure I will!" Tuoba Yi said confidently and proudly.
"Come and see."
With a wave of the third master's sleeves, a dried herb was pinched directly into his hand, and the dried herbs in the hands of the third master were like a change of engine, gradually turning green and moist from the dehydrated and yellow state, and returning to the appearance when they were just picked, and there was even a drop of morning condensed dew hanging on it.
"Wow!" Tuoba Yi was shocked by the third master's tricks.
The third master just smiled, he had seen too much of Tuoba Yi's expression in most of his life, and this was also his capital to stand proudly in front of others. Back.
"Xiao Yi, this is why the way of plants and trees is the purest way between heaven and earth."
"Third master, teach me quickly!" Tuoba Yi shouted impatiently.
"Hehe, to learn this kind of Tao, I have studied it for ten years, and I realized the Tao after the age of fifty" The third master laughed, joke, this kind of Tao must be learned by any person, and he will not be revealed in front of Tuoba Yi.
"Forget it..."Tuoba Yi said stupidly, letting him spend most of his life cultivating a Dao Decision, unless his brain was in water.
But what he doesn't know is that some people can't realize one in their lifetime, let alone cultivate the Dao, the Tao is the product of heaven and earth, and it is difficult to realize the Dao, and it is difficult to go to the sky.
"Yes, young people should not be too ambitious" The third master said with a smile in his heart, but he taught earnestly.
"Yes," Tuoba Yi replied angrily.
Despite the indignation in his heart, Tuoba Yi was still grateful to the third master, and it was he who led Tuoba Yi to set foot in a field for the first time that he had not necessarily had the opportunity to set foot in before or in the future - the way of alchemy.
The current Tuoba Yi may not realize that the realization from the third master and himself has directly or indirectly helped the way of alchemy, but who knows what will happen when time goes by?
"Third master, then I'll retire first."
"Good life and cultivation, the old man believes that your road will go far."
Tuoba Yi said goodbye to the third master and walked to his tent, he now has high confidence in this herbal dance, and he will cultivate it.
