The middle of winter has arrived, and the snow in the mountains has fallen for more than ten days in a row, and the snow on the ground has been more than a foot.

Looking out the window at the white and vast snowy scenery of the distant mountains, Li Tiantu was a little abrupt, there was no Jiazi in the mountains, and he had lived in Longquan Temple for more than a month unconsciously.

For more than a month, in addition to enjoying the scenery and cultivating every day, Li Tiantu has been in the temple with the Great Compassion monk to participate in Zen worship Buddha, drink tea and play chess, and live a peaceful and comfortable life.

"Little brother, you're going to lose!" The words of the Great Compassion Monk brought Li Tiantu back to reality from his memories.

Seeing that the white son blocked the water of the sunspot in the chessboard, Li Tiantu suddenly felt powerless, rolled his eyes and said: "Master, the kid is really distracted, this game doesn't count!" After saying that, he stirred his hands on the chessboard for a while, and he wanted to start anew.

The Great Compassion Monk saw that Li Tiantu was cheating, and he didn't care, but just smiled and said: "You and I are only in chess skills, but the little brother thinks about it today, even if he comes again, it will still be the same defeat." ”

Li Tiantu no longer insisted when he heard this, and casually asked after throwing away the chess game: "Master, don't you have to be entangled in mundane things?" ”

The Great Compassion Monk did not directly answer Li Tiantu's words, but turned his gaze to the window, the window was closed, and the translucent window grille separated the meditation room from the outside world, like two worlds.

The Great Compassion Monk was silent for a long time before muttering: "The monk has been a monk since he was a child, and he can be said to have no distracting thoughts, and he is dedicated to the Buddha, and he originally thought that the fate of the earth had been broken. But later, I realized that with each layer of the Dharma, the dust thoughts increased by one point. It was not until the ancient years that I realized that "I was born only for the Buddha, and I became a Buddha when I was destined to enter the world", and in the end everything returned to the original point, the only difference is that the mind has experienced thousands of eons, but there is a trace of indescribable things. ”

After some words, the Great Compassion Monk's eyes were blank, like the Buddha who entered the world preaching, and naturally talked about it: "The birth of Buddhism is only the only way to practice, and entering the world is the original way of Buddha." It's a pity that the monk's practice is not enough, although he must travel the world once a season, but he still has not really entered the world. ”

In just one sentence, it has exhausted the path of the cultivation of the Great Compassion Monk's life.

Li Tiantu didn't know what to say after hearing this, Buddhism's practice is born into the world, and where should he go in the future?

Recalling the fleeting fresh clothes and angry horses of the Jingshi and the internal strength of the nine deaths that fell off the cliff, Li Tiantu experienced gains and losses, life and death in a short period of time. Whether to fall forever or return to the basics, Li Tiantu has made a decision in his heart.

Born and entered the world, gained and lost, lived and died, the words of the Great Compassion Monk seemed to be talking about himself, but they pointed out a life path for the disoriented Li Tiantu.

After figuring it out, Li Tiantu got off the couch, tidied up his clothes, and folded his hands to salute the Great Compassion monk.

After the ceremony, he was surprised in his heart, every time he had a deep conversation with this enlightened monk, although the time was not long, but the monk's words were exquisite, and even he didn't remember how much he did with such a bow, and the monk was not modest, but he could bear it. Of course, the scholarly Li Tiantu occasionally came up with a few words of life philosophy, which also attracted the praise of the great compassion monk, and he put his hands together and called Amitabha Buddha.

For Li Tiantu's humility and courtesy, the Great Compassion Monk thought deeply and praised: "The little brother has a very high understanding, and the monk is happy to solve your doubts." ”

After that, the Great Compassion Monk suddenly looked at him with a strange light, and said to himself with his dry fingers: "The old Taoist priest of Xuanji has been pursuing the ethereal supreme heavenly realm all these years, and I haven't seen it for thirty years, I don't know what the realm of that old Dao is now?" The old Taoist priest is so high that the monks in this life and this life have forgotten it, but the little brother must have hope to catch up with the old Taoist of the mystery. ”

"Master, how can the kid be qualified to be compared with the predecessors of the first person in the martial arts in the past. In this life, I just want to be a person who can save the suffering of the world from fire and water, and a chivalrous man who can calm down and smile in the mountains and forests. The words of the Great Compassion Monk's extreme appreciation suddenly made Li Tiantu feel full of pride in his heart, and swept away the sluggish atmosphere of a few days ago.

Whether the Supreme Heavenly Dao Road can come to an end, Li Tiantu doesn't know in his heart, but he can get the affirmation of his qualifications from his predecessors, which is what people in distress want the most.

The wrinkled cheeks of the Great Compassion Monk suddenly became rosy, so that Li Tiantu on the opposite side only felt the Buddha's light faintly moving in an instant.

The Great Compassion Monk smiled and nodded, got up and walked slowly towards the door, sighing as he walked: "Okay, okay, you are very much in line with the monk's wishes, although you are not my Buddhist disciple, what if I will give you another creation?" ”

Seeing this, Li Tiantu's heart moved slightly, and he followed the Great Compassion Monk out of the door.

He didn't know what the Great Compassion Monk meant by the creation in his mouth, but he thought that it must have something to do with his state of mind cultivation.

This heaven and earth are really wonderful, and there are two top Buddhist people, Xuanjizi and Great Compassion Monk. If you only talk about internal force cultivation, Xuanjizi should not let the crown of the rivers and lakes; But if it comes to state of mind cultivation, although Li Tiantu has never seen Xuan Jizi himself, he has already decided in his heart that Great Compassion will overwhelm Xuan Jizi and be proud of the world. One is the first in meditation and the other is the first in martial arts, if these two people can be fused together, how far is it from the legendary Supreme Heavenly Dao, or it is simply that.

Out of the meditation room turned right, the Great Compassion Monk walked towards the Daxiong Treasure Hall with Li Tiantu.

After the Great Compassion Monk entered the main hall dedicated to the Buddha of the Great Day, he did not stop, and went around the left side behind the central Buddha.

After arriving at the Buddha statue, Li Tiantu found that there was a cave here.

A cave that was only more than one person high was hidden behind the Buddha statue, and Li Tiantu could still hear the sound of gurgling water in front of the cave.

Although the entrance to this cave is very small, the further you go in, the more space there is, and the sides of the cave are not completely sealed, and there are wisps of white light and a little snowflake floating in the dense staggered gaps.

Embellishment with rays of light and fluttering snowflakes, the entire cave looks like a tunnel of time and space, illusory and mysterious.

Here, Li Tiantu actually felt that he had lost the concept of time, until the Great Compassion Monk suddenly stopped.

Li Tiantu was in an empty and void space deep in the belly of the mountain, and he intuitively felt that the cave was at the end.

At the end of the cave is a dark spring flanked by two huge statues that seem to have been formed naturally.

There was water in the mountain, Li Tiantu was surprised, what surprised him was that the water was black, and there were two natural stone statues on both sides of the bubbling black spring. What's even more palpitating is that in front of the huge stone statue, it is like an ant facing the gods, and the heart of the heavenly path has already become a small Tiantu at this time, and he can't help but feel numb on his scalp at this time.

The Great Compassion Monk was not surprised at all by Li Tiantu's gaffe, and his reaction when he saw the statue in front of him for the first time was not even as good as Li Tiantu, and he almost fell into it. This point did not disappoint him.

He didn't bother Li Tiantu either, but stood quietly beside Li Tiantu. At this time, if someone observes the Great Compassion Monk from the side, they will be surprised to find that the Great Compassion seems to be integrated with the surrounding environment, which is the realm of the unity of heaven and man.

After I don't know how long it took, it wasn't until I felt that Li Tiantu came back to my senses that the Great Compassion Monk deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Little brother, do you know the origin of my Longquan Zen Temple?" ”

Li Tiantu shook his head blankly, as if he hadn't fully reacted from the scene just now.

The Great Compassion monk stretched out his right index finger and pointed to the gurgling black spring water, and said in a deep voice: "This is the Longquan Spring buried deep in the ground, the legend originated in the center of the earth, after the fire of the center of the earth is roasted and quenched, and by the cold washing of the nine shades, the born Longquan spring water contains yin in the yang, and the yin is pregnant with yang, representing the principle of the coexistence of all things in the world." It is a pity that after Longquan approached the surface, it was divided into two and separated by yin and yang. Under the whole world, there are only two springs on the surface of the earth, one yin and one yang. Yangquan is no different from ordinary hot springs, but it has the power to resurrect the dead, and it can be called a holy place for healing; Yin Spring is the opposite of Yang Spring, once a person strays into it, he will be invaded by the Yin and Cold Qi from the Nine Secluded Lands, and the Yin Qi will invade the body and die in an instant. Of course, Yin Spring Water is not useless, if a small amount of Yin Spring Water can cure all the heat poisons in the world. And this spring water is the yin spring water. ”

Dabei couldn't help but shake his head as he spoke, glanced at Li Tiantu and sighed: "There seems to be a mysterious power hiding something in the underworld, and the dragon spring containing the truth of heaven and earth has become like this when it reaches the ground. ”

If you don't touch, you don't know the mysteries of heaven and earth, and you think it's true.

At this point, I have to say that creation makes people. In addition to the miraculous effect of healing, the yang spring of Longquan can also nourish the damage of the meridians, which is suitable for the current Li Tiantu where the meridians are destroyed, and the underground hot spring of Xuanji Villa is the yang spring of the same vein as the yin spring of this Longquan Zen Temple. However, although Li Tiantu listened to the instructions of the snow fairy and soaked in the Yang Spring for three days in a row, the effect was always effective because the soaking time was not enough. Li Tiantu can repair the inner dantian, and awakening the true qi of the heavenly path and the qi of the scorching sun in it is also the work of the yang spring. And the Great Compassion Monk didn't know that Li Tiantu's meridians were destroyed, so he only brushed Yangquan in passing, so that Li Tiantu didn't know that Yangquan had the ability to continue his broken meridians.

Before the Yin Spring, Li Tiantu frowned, took a step closer, and asked puzzledly: "But this water obviously has white smoke floating up, and when you get close to the spring, you can still feel a little heat." ”

"The cold water of the extreme cold does not leak out, and has the effect of absorbing the cold air around it, which is the coldest air, so it will make you feel this way." The Great Compassion Monk looked at the statue again, "This spring water may not be of much use to you, but these two groups of statues are naturally formed, and they contain the general trend of the world. This cave is a secret place of my Buddhism, and I will give you three days to attain enlightenment. ”

For some reason, the Great Compassion Monk felt that Li Tiantu's interest in Yin Spring was much higher than that of the natural stone statue, but at this time, he had no time to think about it, and repeatedly advised: "Remember! Do not touch the shade spring water. Two days later, the weather cleared, and I was going out on a tour. When the time comes, you don't have to see me, just leave by yourself. ”

Although the words of the Great Compassion Monk were plain and did not seem to contain any emotion, Li Tiantu could hear a wisp of reluctance from them. Looking at this Buddhist and Taoist predecessor who had a relationship with his peers but was as kind as a mountain, Li Tiantu nodded heavily, "Master, the friendship of gentlemen is as light as water." Li Tiantu is looking forward to the day when he will meet the master again. ”

The Great Compassion Monk clasped his palms together and smiled: "I will see you again if I have a fate." ”

Seeing the Great Compassion Monk leave, Li Tiantu retracted his gaze to the Yin Spring.

On the surface, Yin Spring is no different from ordinary mountain springs. The reason why Li Tiantu was so interested in this pool of spring water was only because of the Yang Qi in his dantian that had not yet been dissolved. Now it seems that although the Qi of the Extreme Yang is not fighting endlessly with the True Qi of the Heavenly Dao as before, and wreaking havoc on the tendons and veins of the Heavenly Dao, it is a world of its own in the dantian, and it is obviously not controlled by the ontology.

"Can this Yin Spring neutralize the Yang Qi in your body?" Li Tiantu muttered to himself, completely forgetting the advice of the Great Compassion Monk, and unconsciously raised his right hand and put it in the air in front of his chest, and at this moment he had the urge to submerge his palm into the Yin Spring Water Pool.

After thinking carefully for a moment, Li Tiantu slowly stretched out his right hand into the Yin Spring Water. A trace of cold chill that penetrated into the bones continued to spread from his right hand throughout his body, and in an instant, Li Tiantu seemed to feel that the blood in his whole body had stopped flowing, and everything around him seemed to have no connection with him. If the Great Compassion Monk was still nearby at this time, he would definitely be able to see what it means to be "absolutely frozen, standing still in time, and eternal in an instant".

The scorching sun qi comes from the meteorite outside the sky, and it is also transformed by the things in the center of the earth in the outer heavenly realm, which can be called the most yang thing in the world, and it is no worse than the fire in the center of the earth. Stimulated by the Nine Shades of Yin Spring, it woke up, which had been in a state of silence.

The instantly awakened Yang Qi and the Nine Shadows Qi that invaded Li Tiantu's body started a new round of battle in the dantian under it. At this time, on the contrary, the Heavenly Dao True Qi that was slowly circulating shrank into a ball in the corner of the dantian, maintaining a neutral state.

Li Tiantu originally thought that he was going to experience another heart-rending pain and torture, but this time it seemed to be different from the last time, because of the existence of the third Heavenly Dao True Qi.

Although the battle between the two diametrically opposed True Qi was fierce, under the warmth of the Heavenly Dao True Qi, Li Tiantu only felt that the qi and blood were rolling, and other than that, there was not even a little pain.

But soon, the problem arose. As the battle intensified, the Nine Shades Qi in the body became weaker and weaker, and in the end, it was unable to continue. Li Tiantu looked at the entire right arm that had not entered the Yin Spring, and the steel teeth bit his entire body and jumped into the Yin Spring.

The Great Compassion Monk who was meditating in the Daxiong Treasure Hall suddenly jumped in his heart at this time, the kid was so interested in the Yin Spring before, he wouldn't touch the water of the Yin Spring after he left. I haven't left the Daxiong Treasure Hall at the moment, and I think I'm worried about it, but at this time, there is no obvious movement behind the hall, and I think that kid is not reckless. Thinking of this, the Great Compassion Monk's Zen heart settled down. That yin spring contains the nine shades of qi from the ground, and even he doesn't dare to touch it until he has to, and he only needs to pour a few drops into a thousand-year-old warm jade bottle to get water. If the Great Compassion Monk knew that Li Tiantu had jumped into the Yin Spring at this time, I don't know what he would think?
