In the middle of the night, everything is silent.

Xiao Ai sat up from the bed and stared quietly at the window.

"Are you awake?"

The fire fold is lightly lit and a short candle is lit.

A dim light illuminated the inner room.

Xiao Ai's shadow was reflected on the wall, and the shadows were full of shadows, like a slender and slender dragon shadow.

"Well, you're not around, you can't sleep."

Her long hair hung loosely down to her waist, and the girl in the candlelight had just woken up, still a little lazy, like a cat, with a different kind of charm.

Don't look at the appearance of a girl, in fact, they have been an old husband and wife who have been with each other for decades, and they don't have that kind of vigorous love between each other, but they have a tacit understanding cultivated between tens of thousands of days and nights.

Even if you don't speak, just a word, a movement, you can know each other's minds.

Habitually find her a pillow and raise it for her to lean on.

Back in bed, the two quietly enjoyed a silent film.

didn't make any moves, just a thought, in the candle flame on the table, a string of sparks emerged, and then a light mirror rose to illuminate the overlooking scenery inside and outside the Lin family.

"Is this really good for them? It's good that you've been here for so long. ”

Xiao Ai lay comfortably in Lin Zhengyang's arms, looking at the light mirror on the table.

"There is a saying that the king treats me as a countryman, and I repay the king as a countryman."

"I was in the Lin family, and I didn't receive much preferential treatment, everything came as usual, so at this time, I had to repay as an ordinary child of the Lin family."

"But...... Strictly speaking, this thing started because of you. ”

Xiao Wai smiled lightly and asked rhetorically:

"Shouldn't it be one person doing things and one person doing things? I thought you'd quietly settle this alone! ”

"This incident is indeed caused by me...... Speaking of reality, the Lin family can be regarded as being implicated by me, so I will definitely report back to the entire Lin family afterwards, and there are many ways to repay the big families in a county. It's just that you can't do it right now, as for the reason...... My smart little mourning must know it. ”

"Hmph...... If you try to solve your problems now, instead of getting gratitude, you may be questioned, right? ”

"Humans are such a hopeless species, suspicious and fickle by nature, and ungrateful."

"If you don't see the enemy in front of you, if you don't feel the pain yourself, if you don't taste the despair of being in danger, they will never thank you from the bottom of their hearts, that's what you want to say, right? The more casualties there are, the more sincere the survivors' gratitude is, but it is thankless to save everyone. ”

"That's smart...... In fact, I sometimes get tired of such intrigues, always rolling among mortals, and I really hate this group...... Disgusted with the world, giving birth to the heart of the world, probably like me. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ai seemed to be a little touched, and said softly:

"I feel the same way occasionally, but since I started to practice practice, it has become more and more difficult to tolerate lies, fraud, and inattentiveness."

"Whenever I see people who have different hearts, I always get angry and disgusted from the bottom of my heart, and the closer I get closer, the more unbearable it becomes."

"Why is that?"

Lin Zhengyang listened quietly and explained to her:

"The path of cultivation is first to keep quiet, to settle in silence, and then to get started."

"No matter which Taoism is in the world, you must always be quiet when you get started, and this silence is not meditation, but the tranquility of the heart."

"After being quiet, continue to introspect and become aware of every move in the past, all kinds of thoughts and thoughts, including all kinds of dark thoughts and all kinds of evil thoughts."

"Then you can practice the work of refining yourself, get rid of these unhealthy thoughts, make your heart pure, and then gain sincerity."

"It is precisely because your Taoism has gradually deepened that your own heart has been sincere to yourself and to others, until every word and deed is the same, and everything you think is sincere········ When you do this, you will always be aware of insincerity in your own house, and you will easily detect the lies and deception of the world. ”

"I've done a good job of practicing my kung fu so far, so I just need to keep it, introspect every day, and don't retreat."

"Over time, all kinds of virtues are naturally cultivated; This virtue will give birth to light; This light, like a candle flame, can shine on itself, but in fact, it is the same as the so-called radiant heart in this world, the difference is that you are not born from an epiphany, but accumulated over time. ”

Lin Zhengyang sighed faintly and said:

"In the non-Xianxia world of the earth, there is no so-called spiritual machine, and there is no spiritual energy created by heaven and earth, and the cold and strict physical laws rule everything."

"Even so, in the history of mankind, there have been many successful cultivators, not to mention, how did the famous saint who realized under the Bodhi tree get rid of the shackles of the laws of this world?"

"After this sage became enlightened, he said that all living beings have their own nature and are self-sufficient, but they are only blinded by all kinds of obstacles in the world, so they cannot be liberated."

"It is to seek the Fa inwardly, to be sincere to oneself and to one's heart, regardless of the various realms he divides, but the number of paths is almost the same."

"The reason why you and I feel disgusted with the world is also because we are less selfish than ordinary people, and there are not many distracting thoughts, there is no hypocrisy and fraud, and we are not greedy for all kinds of desires in the world.

"The earth immortals dwell in the blessed land, disgusted with the world, and ascend to the heavens, which is what we are talking about."

"This is a good thing, as far as Buddhism is concerned, it is to give birth to a liberated mind; As far as Taoism is concerned, this is a man of morality······ One day, we will become more and more different from mortals, not only in terms of lifespan, but also on the spiritual level, and even in the form of life, and then we will leave the world and completely dislike dealing with mortals. ”

"But it doesn't matter, this process is gradual, not abrupt, I will accompany you and help you adjust slowly······· The difference between immortals and mortals is not just a little change in mentality. ”

Xiao Ai listened quietly and asked:

"Immortal love, what's going on?"

Lin Zhengyang snorted slightly, shook his head and said:

"That's just an unsatisfactory literati in ancient times, who wrote it out to cheat people for money, and the real love of immortals is almost impossible."

"Xiao Wai, you have been practicing until now, it has been one or two decades, your appearance has not aged, your spirit is becoming more and more clear, and between the emptiness of your mind, you can faintly perceive the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of others, if you are allowed to go back to the past, can you bear Kudo Shinichi, who is full of lies?"

After Kudo Shinichi became smaller, he disguised himself as a child, and almost all the time he disguised himself, pretended to be a child and sold cute, mixed into the girls' bathroom, and so on.

Tilting his head and thinking about it, he laughed suddenly:

"I can't stand it anymore, I feel sick even when I hear the slightest insincerity, let alone lies."

"I feel a serious sense of guilt for even lying to myself, how can I tolerate that kind of big liar?"

"Sure enough······· I'm too different from who I was ten years ago, and I'm too different. ”

This should be regarded as a kind of spiritual evolution, from the bad to the good, the truth, goodness and beauty are not just words······· I kind of get what you mean. ”

Xiao Ai blinked, stretched out her white arms, grabbed his neck, and rubbed it twice:

"I'm not an immortal yet, and I'm gradually feeling impatient, let alone an immortal?"

"I'm afraid that mortals can't hide anything from their thoughts, how can that kind of filthy soul impress the immortals? It's not even easy not to be disgusted. ”

"Sure enough, the love of immortals is an obscene essay written by some street beaters who use the manuscript fee to mix."

"It is impossible for the Seven Fairies to fall in love with Dong Yong, and it is impossible for the Weaver Girl to marry the Cowherd because of her stolen clothes."

Lin Zhengyang is colorful:

"The love of immortals in the world, if it is true, most of them are some rural fox girls, and few are from famous families."

"During the period, there are occasionally one or two real people and real things, and they are not fairies, but some obscene goddesses, in order to seek luck, or for titles, or for incense, secretly promoted, so that people can hear."

"There are similar deeds on the earth, and the legend says that Wushan Yunyu is a goddess who fell into a dream, or to ask the Son of Heaven to canonize it on a piece of paper········ Even so, it can't really be a servant of Israel, it's mostly just a dream, and it's more likely that it's just a spring dream of the emperor's own family. ”

"If there is really a fairy marrying a mortal, it is not impossible."

"If you have an extraordinary background in your previous life, or you are an immortal, or you go down to earth because you have some kind of planning mission, at this time, there may be an entourage of immortals who take this opportunity to get involved, such as similar deeds in "Dream of Red Mansions"."

Xiao Wai has long studied Chinese, and is no stranger to the four famous works, so he immediately understood:

"Jia Baoyu is a Shenying attendant, who has gone through calamities in the mortal world, so there is an entourage of female immortals who are incarnated to marry, but they have experienced calamities in the mortal world?"

"Actually, Jia Baoyu's level is still a little lower, although the Shenying waiter is a god with a position, but it is not necessary to say how noble he can be, those female immortals who follow the mortal world, put it in "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman", they are some scattered immortals who have risen from the primordial baby, and in Journey to the West, they are nameless little flower fairies in a small courtyard in the heavenly court······ Between the immortals and the immortals, the gap is also huge, I am not talking about the cultivation realm, but the status of the officer, but any immortal who can have an errand in the heavenly court or a similar institution that manages the upper realm can be regarded as an immortal, and the gap during this period is as big as the gap between the head of state of the five hooligans and the ordinary chieftain of a small tribe of the Indians. ”

Lin Zhengyang actually looked down on Jia Baoyu, and directly showed it:

"Jia Baoyu is not a fairy in love, and he doesn't have that qualification, just playing a side game, most of it is some plans of the police illusion, and these fairies who have no skills also appear as mortals."

"The true love of immortals should be to marry a real fairy in the body of a mortal········ This is mostly the leading edge. ”

"In the previous life, they were husband and wife, that is, Taoist couples, and in this life, if they continue the previous edge, most of them will be introduced to the Tao again, even if they are called husband and wife in the world."

"If there is no leading edge, it is almost impossible to marry a real fairy······ The female fairy mentioned here, converted into this world, is at least an earth immortal who has cultivated three flowers and five qi and lives in the world, if it is the earth, it should be the Yuanjun who has entered the cave heaven and blessed land. ”

In the candlelight, teams of black-clothed men in night clothes had infiltrated the Lin family's land, and then they were finally noticed and a conflict broke out.

looked at it but there was no sound, it was a little boring, Xiao Wai asked casually:

"The earth and the world look very similar to the culture, is there any origin?"

"The two worlds are similar but different, whether it is the concept of cultivation or the division of the realm of cultivation, they are similar on the surface, and if you look closely, you will find that the difference is not small, because the overall environment of the world is different."

"The earth is indeed tightly regulated, and it is extremely difficult to reach the sanctification of the physical body by relying on personal cultivation alone, and the lack of spiritual power and the overall environment declines, and after the spiritual opportunity recedes, the blessed land in various places shrinks and closes, and the cave heaven is like a big scoop drifting with the tide, chasing the spiritual machine and gradually moving away from the present world, and in the end, only the spiritual world is well preserved, but it is also greatly declined········ Therefore, when the Neidan sect arose in later generations, a large number of local Buddhist spiritual cultivation methods were borrowed to refine the Neidan, which survived after death, and in fact, it was rare to even extend life for one hundred and twenty years, and most of them stopped at ghosts and immortals. ”

"The rules of this realm are also strict, but there are a large number of free spiritual powers, even if you don't cultivate Taoism, you can attract spiritual energy with pure mental energy······· You can do it with a little practice for a few days, and that's the way before the dharma, and you can't do it on earth because there is no such abundance of spiritual opportunities. ”

"If you want to talk about the origin, there may be a little bit, probably because of what my predecessor did."

Lin Zhengyang held his cheeks and recalled:

"I vaguely remember······· It seems······ Before the gods and all things and the way of heaven were run, there was also a period of time when the mortal emperors were in the same time, the books were the same as the texts, the cars were on the same track, the rituals were set and the music was edified, and it was about a little trace left by this time. ”

As he spoke, there were already dead and injured people in the mirror.

Not only that, but the sound of a gong was also heard not far away:

"Bang bang! Bang bang bang! ”

There was a rapid sound of gongs, accompanied by a roar hoarse and deformed from fear:

"The thieves are coming! The thieves are in! ”

"Get up quickly, the old man and children are hiding, and the man takes up arms!"

The entire Lin family land was boiling.
