Chapter 232: The Purpose of Returning to Basics

Mai'er was excited for a while, and wanted to go out several times to share the good news with Brother Zhuang, but he couldn't help it. There are three outsiders outside! It's not a two-person world. After calming down, she still went to bed and continued to practice the Taoist breathing method.

There was one more Zhang Shan at the scene, and it was inconvenient for Zhuangzi to talk with the money shopkeeper and Zhao Dacheng. After all! Everyone is not so familiar with each other, and there are some things that cannot be said clearly. After the three of them finished eating the rest of the wine and food, they chatted for a while and then dispersed. Although the conversation was not enjoyable, it was very speculative. Before you knew it, it was getting dark.

"There's a chance we'll talk alone!"

When they broke up, the money shopkeeper was not taboo at all to have Zhao Dacheng present and greeted Zhuangzi.

"Good!" Zhuangzi replied, "I think I can talk to you!" Just what the doctor ordered! I accepted it! Be sure to go to your Qiyuan wine shop another day! ”

"Hahaha!" The money shopkeeper smiled: "When the time comes, you will rest when you get drunk!" ”

"Get drunk!"

Zhao Dacheng saw that the money shopkeeper stole the limelight, and said unconvinced: "Zhuangzi! You have a temper, which suits my Zhao Dacheng's taste! Sometime! Let's have a good chat! Let's talk about it separately too. Don't look at me giggling, but I'm not just giggling! I never talk nonsense to strangers and unfamiliar people! I know you, I treat you as my own! I believe in you! ”

Zhuangzi nodded and smiled at Zhao Dacheng.

Zhuangzi sent the two out, but Zhang Shan did not follow, but cleaned up the tea set on the square table. Previously, when Zhuangzi was chatting with the money shopkeeper and Zhao Dacheng, he had already gone to the kitchen to wash the tableware, and put it back in the special food box of the Qiyuan wine store in the same way, and put it aside and waited for the young man from the money shopkeeper to come and pick it up. Bai Du billion hey, Yan, brother free of charge without bullet window to watch the next chapter

After cleaning up the tea set, he came out of the kitchen, stood in the hall, and looked at the newly bought bed, and the set of bedding and pillows placed on the bed, Zhang Shan suddenly felt that his head was big for a while.

The house that the town government placed for Zhuangzi has only one courtyard and two main rooms at the back. At the back of the main house, there is the kitchen. The kitchen is not as big as the two main rooms in front of it, but it is narrow. Put the sundries on one side of the stove and the other side.

One of the two main rooms is used as a hall and one as a master bedroom. Right now! The master bedroom has been occupied by the seller, and the only place where the bed can be placed is in the hall.

Zhang Shan thought of it, and immediately started to clean up the hall, pushed the new bed to the wall, and then spread the futon on the bed, and put the pillows away.

After Zhuangzi sent the two away, he turned around and came back, seeing that Zhang Shan had already made the bed. looked at it and nodded towards Zhang Shan, expressing satisfaction.

"Hmmm! Very good! ”

Zhuangzi came to the bedside, sat on the edge of the bed, took off his shoes, sat cross-legged on the bed, and beckoned, "Come up!" Learn from me! Sit cross-legged! I'll teach you the Tao of breathing. ”

Zhang Shan looked at Zhuangzi and couldn't believe it. But he obediently took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed.

"As a Taoist, you must first practice the Taoist mind. And then! Practice Taoist martial arts! Teach you Taoist breathing today, and from tomorrow, teach you Taoist martial arts. I'm telling you! Don't kneel down to others at every turn in the future, we Taoists don't believe in this! Taoism believes in the human heart, not in the superficial form! No matter how similar and good it is on the surface, what is the use of being fake in the heart? We Taoists look at people by looking at the heart, not at the appearance......"

After some teaching, Zhuangzi began to teach Zhang Shan Taoist breathing methods.

"The Taoist breathing method is about nature! It's forgetting! Yes none! Forget that you are breathing backwards and breathe deeply. To none! What is none? Nothing is nothing! What not! Nothing at all! No thoughts! Undisturbed by the outside world, to the state of a baby.

Is the baby disturbed by the world? They only know how to cry when they are hungry, and crying is an instinctive reaction of babies, the natural instinctive reaction of human nature. It is impossible for us adults to cultivate and cultivate the Tao back to our infant days, and we can only temporarily reach the state of infancy, which temporarily allows us to forget all the troubles of the world and calm our hearts.

The criterion for our cultivation is to attain the state of nothingness and nature of an infant. Don't understand it as always keeping the state of a baby, be a child, a baby. Because! We are adults, we still have to eat and live, we can't be like children, with parents and elders to take care of! So! We can't always be like babies.

We have to take care of ourselves, and the purpose of cultivating is to calm our hearts and calm down for a while. Don't always make yourself nervous, cultivation is to relax your mind, not to escape from the world and escape from reality......"

After a long period of cultivation, Mai'er's stomach was hungry.

Cultivators digest it quickly, faster than people who do physical work, and faster than normal people. When you are cultivating, all parts of your body are in motion. It not only refers to the movement of muscles, qi and blood, and meridians, but also includes every cell in the human body, where normal physiological movement cannot be achieved. Wherever you want to stay, the full-scale movement begins. So! Cultivators digest it quickly.

She got out of bed and came to the door, and when she saw that the hall was quiet, she opened the door and walked out.

By this time, it was already dark, and the house was very dark. She glanced at the hall. Seeing Brother Zhuang and Zhang Shan sitting cross-legged on the bed to cultivate, she smiled secretly, walked lightly to the square table, picked up the fire fold, and lit the oil lamp.

"Click!"

The fire cracker made a slight noise.

Zhang Shan opened his eyes, first glanced at Zhuangzi in fear, and then! Pretending not to be afraid, he looked at the place where the sound came from. Seeing that the seller had lit the lamp, he looked flustered again.

"What do you want to do?" Zhuangzi shouted softly.

Zhang Shan looked at Zhuangzi with his eyes, and he looked even more afraid.

"You are cultivating now, don't be disturbed by the outside world when you are cultivating. Keep practicing! Forget everything, don't think about this, think about that! Meditation! Be still! ”

"It's getting dark, I'm going to cook for Master!"

"I'm not your master!"

"Me? But me! I recognize you as Master in my heart! ”

"Keep cultivating!" Zhuangzi shouted softly. Then he said, "What do you think in your heart, how do others know?" You said that you just think I am a master in your heart? Keep practicing! Dinner is made by Mai'er, and she wants to eat when she's hungry! ”

Under Zhuangzi's reprimand, Zhang Shan had to sit there cross-legged again, adjusted his posture, and continued to cultivate.

"Today is a critical time! You must persevere, you will have to rely on yourself in the future, if you don't concentrate, thinking about this is the easiest way to go crazy. Zhuangzi also explained the importance of concentration, and did not stop until Zhang Shan settled down.

The seller took the oil lamp and went to the kitchen with a snicker.
