Chapter 132: The Way of Transcendence
ps: Today's second update, if you have a monthly pass, please support it, please.
Hai Gongzi shouted loudly, but his voice was weak and his confidence was insufficient.
Qi Xiang shook his head, didn't argue with him, and simply changed the topic: "Where are we now, have we returned to China?" By the way, why didn't you see Zhu Shen? ”
Tian Shi frowned, his expression was complicated, but he still said truthfully: "We have returned to the coastal port, Zhu Shen is unwilling to stay on the ship, and he has already gone home yesterday." ”
"Oh, then it's time for me to go." Qi Xiang nodded, and he was also unwilling to stay on the boat for a long time.
"Wait......" Hai Gongzi didn't give up, and had to defend: "Why do you say that there is no road ahead of us." The predecessors have opened up so many roads, let's just pick one that suits us and go down, isn't it? ”
"Really?" Qi Xiang smiled and asked, "If it really works, you don't have to worry about it like this." ”
Hai Gongzi's momentum was stagnant, and he muttered in a low voice unconvinced: "How do you know that we are distressed?" ”
"Simple, you can see it from your collection of books." Qi Xiang said bluntly: "Each of you has a large collection of books. But these collections, even if they are sorted and sorted, cannot hide a fact. ”
"What facts?" Hai Gongzi frowned and asked.
"Chaos, disorganized...... Qi Xiang said frankly: "Your book collection lacks a systematic main line, to put it bluntly, there is no consistent context. The main line is not clear, and the auxiliary line is not clear, so I think that you are also confused and don't know where your path is? ”
When Tian Shi and the others heard this, their faces changed again. These words hit their fate, and they couldn't refute it at all.
“…… Hmph, who wouldn't pour cold water on it? ”
Hai Gongzi was silent. pouted and said: "What main line, auxiliary line, it doesn't make sense, as long as you can cultivate successfully." Smooth entry, that's it. ”
"The point is. You can't find the way to enter the Tao. Qi Xiang hit the nail on the head and said: "You are a bit like headless flies now, you don't know which path is the right one, you can only run indiscriminately, hoping that the blind cat will meet a dead mouse." ”
"You ......"
Hai Gongzi was dumbfounded and speechless.
Tian Shi's eyes flickered, and he asked rhetorically, "Then in your opinion, what should we do?" Don't trespass. If you don't try, how do you know if the road ahead is right or wrong? ”
"That's right." Hai Gongzi and the others thought so, and then looked at Qi Xiang intently, expecting him to say why.
"That's your own business."
Unexpectedly, Qi Xiang was not fooled, and said goodbye directly: "Thank you for taking care of me these days, I should go, everyone will meet again." ”
After that, Qi Xiang didn't give Hai Gongzi and the others a chance to stay, and simply left neatly.
Disembarked and went ashore. The feeling of being down-to-earth is really good.
Qi Xiang looked around the busy port with a relaxed and happy mood. Hurry away. He didn't stop in the port city, he went directly to the railway station, bought a ticket for the fastest bullet train, and took the car back to Huzhou.
The train was very fast, and after two or three hours, Qi Xiang arrived at his destination safely and smoothly.
"It's better to go home comfortably."
Returning to the familiar environment, Qi Xiang's whole person relaxed, lying softly on the soft sofa. Next to it, the harrier fluttered its wings. chirped, and the voice was a little round and jade. Crisp and catchy signs.
"Little one, you're happy."
Qi Xiang casually threw a meatball to tease the harrier. There was a bit of envy in his eyes. After all, the harrier is different from people, as long as it has enough opportunities, it is easy to transform, and there is a smooth road ahead.
The eagle eagle on the cliff of the vast mountain is a good example, perhaps it has been demonized and transformed into a higher level of life.
But people are different, they have seven emotions and six desires, and they are affected by various worldly factors, and their Tao is uncertain.
Thousands of feet of red dust are the easiest to wear down people's hearts and wills, so human beings, as the spirits of all things, are more difficult to cultivate than birds and beasts with simple thoughts.
The root of the path of cultivation is nothing more than the word detachment.
But how to detach has been the most difficult problem for many saints and sages for thousands of years. That's why there are three thousand avenues, eight hundred side doors, and one hundred and eight thousand spells.
However, because there are too many ways to choose from detachment, it is easy to make people dizzy and confused.
Don't look at the time when you are on the boat, Qi Xiang talks eloquently and looks confident. In fact, he is not very clear about the direction of the "Dao" road, but has a vague idea.
However, it can also be determined that in today's environment, it is estimated that the methods handed down by the ancients can only be used as a reference, and it is impossible to copy them successfully.
In the final analysis, it is still due to the change in the general environment between heaven and earth, if the method of cultivation does not change, I am afraid that even if you cultivate to death, you will not gain any results.
Qi Xiang pondered for a moment, and suddenly took out the turtle egg, and then ran to the secret cabinet in the room, took out a few more things, and arranged them together in turn.
Turtle eggs, spirit bone pens, Qingling tea leaves, bead plates, as well as carved bones and feathers.
Qi Xiang's gaze slowly swept over these things, and his thoughts fell into hesitation. In the few days he was on the ship, he frantically flipped through the secret information collected by Tian Shi and the others, and he also had some experience.
Even if you don't feel like you're seeing the sun, at least the fog-shrouded road is somewhat visible. For example, what should be the main thing and which should be supplemented by these things arranged on the table now, which needs to be his choice.
This is related to how he should go in the future, and naturally he can't be arbitrary.
For a while, Qi Xiang was in a dilemma and was undecided.
"Ding Dong!"
While Qi Xiang was hesitating, a crisp doorbell suddenly sounded outside the manor.
"Who?"
Qi Xiang was stunned, and then waved his hand gently, and the little harrier immediately flapped its wings and flew out, shuttled out of the window dexterously, and gently circled in the air, landing on a nearby big tree.
"Tuk, tuk, tuk."
In an instant, the little harrier was like a woodpecker, pecking at the trunk with its sharp beak.
When Qi Xiang saw it, he knew it in his heart. There were three people outside, and I don't know what the way was coming. He thoughtfully, put away the treasures first. before going out to greet guests.
"Huh?"
At first glance, Qi Xiang was stunned. Because of the visiting guests. Something came as a surprise to him.
"Haha, Qi Xiaoyou, it's really you."
At this moment, outside the iron gate of the manor, an old man with gray hair laughed heartily: "They also said that I recognized the wrong person, and it turned out." I was right. ”
Qi Xiang was stunned, his steps were not slow, and he hurriedly rushed over, surprised and respectful: "Old Sun, why are you here?" ”
The old man outside the manor was the master of calligraphy and painting appraisal that he had a relationship with when he was fasting.
The old man's surname is Sun, not from Huzhou, but a relatively famous old man in Suzhou. has a lot of influence in the industry, so the huge boss asks him to be a referee.
For such a master, Qi Xiang naturally respects it very much. Quickly went to open the door and bowed down to apologize: "I don't know if you're old, and you're not welcome, please don't be surprised." ”
"We were just on the hill nearby and we overheard you entering the manor. I thought it should be you, and I mentioned it to them. But the two of them didn't believe in the people I knew here, and laughed at me for being dizzy. ”
Sun Lao smiled and said: "I just dragged them over to take a look, facts speak louder than words, they are wrong." ”
"Brother Sun. Knowing that you make a wide range of friends, we admit it. It's done. An old man next to him smiled helplessly: "The main thing is that we were still thinking about things just now, and we didn't pay attention to ......."
"Hmph." Old Sun smiled strangely: "Say whatever you want." I'm right anyway. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, just you......" The two old men next to them were even more helpless, looking at each other and smiling.
The three old men laughed and talked about Mowgli, but Qi Xiang wisely did not cut in, but smiled and invited: "Old Sun, you are a guest from afar, and meeting is fate, how about you go in and sit for a while and have a cup of tea?" ”
Sun Lao hesitated, turned his head to look at the two friends next to him, and asked for advice with his eyes. The other two old men were noncommittal, their expressions were very casual, and they let him make up his own mind.
"Then ......" Sun Lao thought about it, then nodded and smiled: "I'm just tired of walking, it's okay to go in and sit." ”
When Qi Xiang heard this, he hurriedly led the way and led Sun Lao and the others to the living room of the manor. Along the way, Sun Lao looked left and right, bowing his head from time to time, obviously the layout of the manor was quite in line with his taste.
Entering the living room and beckoning the three of them to sit down, Qi Xiang asked curiously while making tea with his hands and feet: "Old Sun, are you here to visit friends?" ”
“…… At last. Sun Lao paused before explaining: "The two of them were entrusted by someone to come over to do something, but they didn't know much about the road. I was quite familiar with the environment, so I volunteered to be a guide for them. ”
"I see." Qi Xiang suddenly realized, and asked for advice in time: "Old Sun, I'm clumsy, I don't know who these two old men are?" ”
"They?" Sun Lao smiled and introduced: "The peers who play miscellaneous items are entrusted by others to come from all over the world. Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the place, I pounced. ”
"Punch in the air?" Qi Xiang was a little surprised: "What's the matter?" ”
"I've been released from the pigeons." Sun Lao said truthfully: "We made an appointment to meet, but no one was at home." ”
"That's ......" Qi Xiang nodded and condemned: "It really shouldn't be." ”
Sun Lao agreed, turned his head and said: "In my opinion, you two, don't wait, just go back to Suzhou with me for two days, and then go back when you have fun." ”
The two old men, who were brothers, when Sun Lao minded, he didn't mention his name and said his surname.
The surname of the two is Wu, the eldest brother is naturally Uncle Wu, and the younger brother is Second Master Wu.
Uncle Wu has a relatively calm personality and a bit of a feeling of not smiling. As for Second Master Wu, his temperament is just the opposite, he is very able to chat, he always smiles, and he is a rectum.
So at this time, after listening to Sun Lao's persuasion, Second Master Wu shook his head directly and said: "Brother Sun, if it is something else, if we receive this cold reception, our brothers will definitely not say a word, throw up their sleeves and leave." ”
"But this time, the situation is a little different, and we ...... I don't want to leave. ”
Qi Xiang noticed that Second Master Wu's wording was also very interesting, saying that he didn't want to go, not that he couldn't go...... (To be continued)
