388. If you don't have the heart, listen clearly
Cheng Tianle asked, "Which gateway are we going through?" β
Shi Tianyi replied: "It leads to the Fazhu Peak, where the disciples of the Zhengyi Sect live and practice on weekdays. β
Cheng Tianle: "Why don't you go through the door of the same sect?" We're not serious disciples either. β
Shi Tianyi: "When I said hello yesterday, people arranged it like this, saying that there are seniors who want to see you, and it is more convenient to go to the Fazhu Peak first." β
As he spoke, he drove some distance along the road by the lake, and came to a town, Shi Tianyi found a shade on the side of the road and parked the car, and several people got out of the car and walked to the lake in the wild. There are fields of farmland next to the lake, and there are many bamboo poles inserted in the shallow water not far from the lakeshore, which is the surface of the lake contracted by local farmers. Looking further afield, there are several fishing boats in the rippling blue waters.
They walked through a rolling hill and through a lush bamboo forest, which was very secluded, and the bamboo grew all the way to the water's edge, and many bamboo leaves were also floating on the water nearby. There was a bamboo raft parked among the drifting bamboo leaves, and on the bamboo raft stood a Taoist in Tsing Yi with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes. The disciples of Zhengyi have been polite and have been waiting here for a long time! β
Cheng Tianle hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Fellow Daoist of the world, I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting!" β
He replied: "I don't know how many years of cultivation in the mountains, I will not feel long if I enjoy the reflection of green bamboo and listen to the sound of waves on the shore on the shore of this Qingyi Lake." β¦β¦ A few Taoist friends, please board the raft. β
Several people boarded the bamboo raft, which had no oars. As soon as the world turned, it drifted away from the shore and headed for the lake. When they met for the first time, they exchanged pleasantries on the bamboo raft for a long time. The world is really a name that has been admired for a long time. But Cheng Tianle has never heard of the name of the world. At this time, it is very important to have a referral guide by your side, and if you want to introduce yourself. Mentioning certain things inevitably leads to the suspicion of self-aggrandizement.
Cheng Tianle had seen Zeren's disciple Lu Qian. According to Shi Tianyi, this master of the world is a disciple of Ze Ming Zhenren, and Ze Ming's master is Heguang Zhenren, one of the three major sword immortals of the Zhengyi Sect. Heguang's predecessor is the Taishang elder who guards the mountain gate in Zhengyimen, and he has been cultivating in the mountains for many years and rarely walks the world, so he has not traveled so much with Feng and Hexi's predecessors, as if his reputation is not obvious, but his cultivation is extremely high and he has the ability to transform into gods.
This Daoist of the World, like Xuqian, has also shown his face in the Kunlun cultivation world. Twenty-six years ago, at the Zhengyi Sanshan meeting where monks of various factions gathered, the former head of Zhengyi in the center of the high platform guarded behind the seat of the real person. There are two little Taoist children, one holding a gold whisk dust, and the other holding a jade bottle. At that time, it was the people who held the gold and dust, and the one who held the jade bottle was the world, which was a great blessing!
Cheng Tianle, a disciple of the Zhengyi Sect, has only seen two of them so far, but he didn't expect it to be the two of them. In fact, this can't be regarded as a coincidence, the last time he sent Lu Qian to Suzhou, this time he sent Lu Shi out of the mountain to greet him, all of which were specially arranged by the elders in the door, and these two were selected. The first person to see Cheng Tianle was Heguang's predecessor, who specially ordered him to come to lead the way.
Listen to Shi Tianyi mention the events of the year again. "I was only five years old that year, and I was still ignorant, and my elders asked me to come to the stage to hold the jade bottle, and I just stood honestly. β¦β¦ Shi Daoyou, don't forget to compare me with Senior Brother Luqian. There is no need for this. β
The Thirty-six Cave Heavenly Pill Dao has been cultivated to the twenty-ninth Cave Heaven 'Bone Changing Cave Heaven', and has been reborn, and he is the first person in the new generation of disciples of the Zhengyi Sect. He has been practicing in the mountains since he was a child. He was personally instructed by Master Tai to keep the integrity of the real person, and he was sixteen years old when he entered the Dan Dao. Cultivation is the speed of improvement, and the qualifications, understanding, and temperament are outstanding. The cultivation is much higher than that of his peers.
Both Lu Qian and Shi are in their early thirties this year, and they are also the oldest of the Zhengyi generation, and many of the disciples of the Zheng generation are not yet twenty years old. Lu Qian has been reborn and cultivated, and there is only one person among the younger disciples, and no one of the other generations of the Zhengyi Sect has yet passed the vacuum.
And the twenty-second cave heaven "Imperial Cave Heaven" in the thirty-six cave Heavenly Dan Dao, which is still in the world, is only one step away from breaking the delusion, which is not very fast but not very slow in the same sect, it is a very normal situation. It can only be said that Lu Qian is too good, not only is his seedlings good, but also the elders are good, and the various opportunities he encounters are also coincidental.
In fact, like Zhengyimen, the first major school in Kunlun with a thousand-year-old heritage, the inheritance of the junior and disciple does not pay attention to how fast the cultivation can be at the beginning of the entry, and the thirty-six cave Tiandan Dao pays attention to the foundation, and the realm goes with the flow. Since ancient times, most of the Jindan Dacheng people have been around 30 years old, which is also the time when a person's experience and knowledge are accumulated, and the body and mind are basically fully mature.
The Thirty-six Cave Heavenly Pill Dao does not force the speed of refinement, but for most monks in the world, if a person is still unable to achieve great success after middle age, especially after fifty years, the hope of reaching the realm of great success in this life is very slim. Because this shows one thing, I am afraid that the cultivation achievements that a person can achieve can only be like this, and they cannot be forced.
The body and mind have long matured, and the spirit and spirit have also passed the peak of their heyday, and it is basically difficult to break through the bottleneck in cultivation. In fact, there is no age limit for the method of dispelling delusion, even if you cultivate to the age of 100, you may still step into the door of delusion, but in this case, the hope of breaking delusion is very slim. On the one hand, it is difficult to change much in the physical and mental state, and on the other hand, the years that may be spent in the delusion are longer, and the life expectancy may not be enough.
However, there are exceptions, such as those who are flawed in the original recipe they are cultivating, those who are always unlucky if they lack good fortune, those who lack the guidance of the true transmission, those who have a biased mind and some of the key points that have never been understood. Once you get real guidance or enlightenment, or your life has suffered a heavy turn, or you have experienced some incredible mystery, it is also possible to break through your delusions after middle age, such as Xing Duze, the old head of the Qingcheng Sword School.
Of course, these are all human cultivators, and as for demon cultivators, they can't be compared with the same longevity, but some situations are similar. For example, many demon cultivators encounter Cheng Tianle and enter the Ten Thousand Transformations Sect to be guided by it, which is the turning point of the great fortune.
And Xuqian is another situation, although the main sect does not force the disciples to improve quickly, but such cultivation is beyond the ordinary. It can also be called the genius of this generation of disciples, and the same family can't be jealous if they want to. That's why he has the word "humble" in his Dharma name. Master just reminded him not to be arrogant to his peers, but to be humble and natural.
Now Lu Qian was sent to the Zhiwei Building in Weishui as a manager. It was not an ordinary restaurant, and the people who ran the hall were all outstanding disciples of various sects in Kunlun. Being a symbolic leader there, learning not only business management, but also preparing for the future leadership of the world's sects, is to be cultivated as the next generation of leaders.
Shi Tianyi knew the situation of these two Taoist leaders, and when they met, he couldn't help but mention the events of the Zhengyi Sanshan meeting that year. In fact, subconsciously, he was lamenting that he had broken through the realm of rebirth, but he had not yet broken through the delusion, just like he saw Cheng Tianle the day before yesterday. remembered that it was similar to Cheng Zong's cultivation back then, and Cheng Tianle has now broken through the vacuum realm and founded the Ten Thousand Variation Sect.
And the resume told Shi Tianyi that he didn't have to always mention this stubble, which was also a euphemistic reminder not to make this kind of comparison in his heart. The cultivation of humility is the cultivation of humility, and he should be praised but not envied and compared.
Hearing this, Cheng Tianle quietly sent Shi Tianyi a divine thought: "Shi Daoyou, do you often do the things of the Zhengyi Sanshan Society before you are in the world?" β
Shi Tianyi nodded quietly. Cheng Tianle then recited with a divine thought: "You praised them in front of people for their extraordinary experience, but have you ever sighed in your heart that your cultivation has improved so quickly, but you have not been able to achieve great success in the world? β
Shi Tian was slightly stunned, and then nodded silently. Cheng Tianle still said with a god: "Even people don't think so." Why do you always think of these things in your heart for him? Although the words are not spoken, people have long known your thoughts, but it is not easy to persuade you. You have in your heart the intention of performing on your own behalf, and then you compare it with your humility. It's not necessary. β
These are all the emotions in Shi Tianyi's heart, and he has never said it, he just mentions that he and Lu Qian were on the same stage at the Zhengyi Sanshan Meeting. There is no mention of today's practice. But he never forgot to mention this stubble, and it was this comparison that he had in mind. I didn't realize it. Today on the bamboo raft, the world is finally broken in person. Then Cheng Tianle said it more thoroughly.
In fact, Shi Tianyi is a few years younger than Cheng Tianle, only twenty-eight this year. Why doesn't Shi Tianyi want to think about the fact that he has such an experience in the world and is older than him, and now he has not broken his delusions?
Shi Tian seemed to have an understanding, and fell into deep thought silently. He didn't speak again, a green coat fluttered in the wind, and the bamboo rows under his feet parted and drifted towards the depths of the blue lake. The sun shines on the water, there are fishing songs faintly in the distance, and there is a peaceful and leisurely space between heaven and earth.
Cheng Tianle looked at the flowing water separated by the bamboo raft with his back hand, and the ripples spread far away, and superimposed, collided, and gradually dissipated with the waves on the lake, full of the charm of heaven and earth. The so-called heaven and earth spiritual breath is not only a majestic and dangerous coercion, but also a gentle and silent ripple, Cheng Tianle seems to see the gods, and several people on the bamboo raft seem to be in a trance.
Cheng Tianle was looking down at the water, but he was suddenly stunned when he looked at it, because there were no waves on the water. The bamboo raft walks in the lake, although there is no oars and no poles, but it is driven by the mana of the royal shape, and it will always bring up fine waves and wave marks, but in such an inexplicable moment, the lake surface becomes smooth as a mirror, and the bamboo raft glides silently without leaving any traces.
Cheng Tianle was stunned, thinking that he had seen it wrong, his eyelids blinked and saw the waves again, and when he looked up again, a towering mountain appeared in front of him. It is certain that when you look at it from afar, there is absolutely no such mountain in the lake. At this moment, he had to sigh, it turned out that this portal of Zhengyi Sanshan was in the lake, and he had passed through it unconsciously just now, but he didn't know how the Cave Heaven Enchantment was opened, and it seemed that he should have a special induction magic weapon on his body.
The majestic green mountains are thousands of meters high, and they come to block the sight of the left and right and the rear, and they can't see the whole picture of this blessed land. Cheng Tianle's reaction was still like this, and Jiang Zhang, who was behind, couldn't help but let out an exclamation. Standing in front, he smiled and said: "Mr. Cheng, Jiang Daoyou, in front of you is the Fazhu Peak, one of the three mountains of Zhengyi." β
The bamboo raft brushes off the light waves and lands on the shore, and the scenery is almost the same as the shore of the lake when you came, if you don't notice it, I'm afraid you will think that you are back in the same place. There is a path more than two people wide in the forest, and it is full of withered yellow bamboo leaves, which rustle on it. There is a stone road out of the bamboo forest, there is a stone archway in front, the lintel is written with the words "Law Pillar Peak", and there is also a drop Xu Demon King Shengzhi next to it.
Look at the stone pillars on both sides of the carved couplet: "If the clouds and water have no heart, it will be rain and dew out of the world; The spring stone moves and listens clearly, and enters the mountains and rivers of Kunlun", which is also the same person's handwriting.
There were four Taoist children in Tsing Yi standing in front of the stone square and said to everyone: "Is it the general manager of Gusu Wanbian Zongcheng?" Master Heguang is waiting on the heart wall. β
Cheng Tianle hurriedly returned the salute: "I'm really embarrassed, I have to work for you, how can I let my seniors wait for me!" β
He smiled and said, "They are either waiting for Cheng Zong, or they are on duty here." And no matter whether Cheng always comes or not, the ancestor of Heguang will also hold a pen and book on the wall of the inscription today. β
Walking up the mountain along the winding stone path through the stone workshop, Cheng Tianle couldn't help but ask: "Just now I saw the inscription on the stone workshop, how is it a demon king?" β
He replied: "When the ancestor chiseled and built Zhengyi Sanshan, he had the help of all kinds of immortals, and the stone workshop has been there since a thousand years ago. I also asked the same question to the master, but the master was not clear, so I went to ask the master. β
Cheng Tianle: "Then how did your ancestor answer?" β
Resume the world: "Mr. Cheng, your name is Tianle, and others can also take the name Demon King." β
Cheng Tianle was stunned: "Isn't this the original words of Heguang's predecessors?" β
"Of course not, how did my ancestor know that you would come?" He just told Master SΓΉ that if anyone asked again, he would answer like that. β
Continuing to walk up, Cheng Tianle suddenly asked Shi Tianyi with a divine thought: "Shi Daoyou, do you know when the master of the world, Ze Ming Zhenren, became a great success?" β
Shi Tianyi couldn't answer this kind of question in front of the world, so he had to quietly gesture with his fingers, and the answer was forty-five years old. Cheng Tianle didn't ask anything more, but Shi Tianyi was very puzzled, and he didn't know why Mr. Cheng suddenly asked this? After a while, he seemed to understand again, and his expression became relieved. In fact, the meaning expressed by Cheng Tianle is very complicated, involving several issues, which is enough for Shi Tianyi to ponder for a while.
Fazhu Peak is a high mountain from a distance, but you can't see its whole picture clearly when you are in the mountain. The path winds its way up to give the impression that the mountain is layered, and at each turn a fork in the road leads to a pavilion in the middle of a mountain forest, but it is not very realistic.
