Chapter 0561: The Journey of Heart Refining
In the first life, Su Qi was a scholar.
Ten years of cold windows, hard study every day, poor parents died in the family, only he and his sister two years younger are left, he lives by copying and writing for others, although he can fill his stomach, but still can't let him have a brand new Confucian robe and hair crown, let alone study and participate in various banquets like other scholars.
My sister is very sensible, since the age of ten began to help people wash and make money, this is a hard job, summer is better, whenever winter comes, her hands will become red and swollen and chapped, sometimes he will be very distressed, but the poor family has its own poor family's sorrow, this kind of thing is not among their most troublesome problems.
His fame is what matters most.
But once the success is ten thousand bones, under one champion, there are also thousands of scholars buried, who are desperate and can't leave a name on the gold list.
He was the same.
After failure, you can only continue to study hard, reading is a one-way street, some people say that it is useless to be a scholar, although this is not absolute, but it seems to have some truth in him, there is no field at home, only two small grass houses, the money earned by copying books can only be fed, and my sister can not save a dowry for herself every day.
The turning point in life was the rebellion.
The long-standing resentment ignited the anger of the people, and on a midsummer afternoon, the rebels from the south ransacked the whole city, burning and looting, and the burning fire was clearly visible from more than ten miles away, and they who lived in the south of the city became the first unlucky people to be swept into it.
The dilapidated home was burned, his sister was taken away by the rebels, he fled for his life in a hurry, fell into the South River, and was carried down the river by the river, fortunately he lived by the river for a long time, and he knew how to water when he was very young, so he picked up a life.
When he went ashore, he only knew that he was going north in a daze, but he didn't want to meet a state soldier who happened to meet a state soldier, who was in charge of the state pastor, who saw that he was pitiful, gave him a small judge position in the army, and hurriedly led the army south.
But unexpectedly, this became a turning point in his life.
In the battle of counterinsurgency, he was familiar with the terrain, put forward the proposal to break the embankment and break the rebel camp, after winning the battle, he was quickly promoted, became one of the staff under the state pastor's tent, in the following six months, he went all the way south with the army, and gave advice to help the state minister quell the rebellion in the entire south.
Rewards poured in.
Zhou Mu entered the dynasty as the prime minister, and as a counterinsurgency hero, he also followed into Beijing and became a hot celebrity in the new phase series.
Five years later, when the war broke out in the north, he was recommended by the prime minister to lead the army north to conquer the aliens, defeated 100,000 enemy troops, beheaded the enemy chieftain, and stained the desert with blood.
Ten years later, he ascended to the platform and personally received the seal of the world's great generals from the emperor.
Fifteen years later, the old minister complained of illness, he entered the court as the prime minister, ruled the world, and there were both civil ministers and military generals behind him, one person above, ten thousand people below.
Twenty years later, the emperor died, and he single-handedly assisted the new emperor to ascend the throne, and half a year later, he relinquished power in his hands, and won the favor of the new emperor.
When he died, he was worthy of the temple, and all three sons were rewarded with official positions.
But he still remembers the small grass house on the bank of the Nancheng River decades ago.
Because he never found his sister.
And Su Qi, who spent his first life, was also at a loss.
Li She's life is extremely clear in his mind, he can even clearly recall the expression of his sister sewing clothes with candles beside him when he was reading in the middle of the night, he can also remember the cold and choking water of the Nanhe River, and he can even remember the joy when his son was born.
It's like it's really my own life.
But this is actually just a fantasy of Emperor Yun.
Life is like a dream, like fog and electricity.
This is probably the saying of Buddhism, but Taoists have similar confusion, isn't Zhuang Zhou Mengdie the best example?
Maybe his life is just a dream, there has never been Zhongzhou and Nanling in the Eastern Wilderness, there has never been Qishan Lu Celadon and Zhao Riyue, and there is no secret place and cloud palace, he just lay on the table and took a nap.
But before Su Qi could really understand anything.
He was thrown into a new life by Emperor Yun.
In the second life, he was a butcher, half of his life was ordinary, and in middle age, he was insulted by his wife and daughter, and he killed people with a knife in a fit of rage.
In the third life, he was a ranger, licking blood at the tip of a knife, selling his life in troubled times, and when he was old, he was beheaded by the enemy in a small temple.
In the third life, he was a rich man, fighting cocks and walking birds during the day, staying at the Qinglou Inn at night, and dashing for half his life, but in middle age, his father was involved in the court party dispute, the whole family was copied, the family was in the middle of the road, and finally starved to death in the bridge hole on the side of the road.
After ten completely different lives in a row, Emperor Yun seemed to have made up his mind to let him experience all kinds of things in the world.
And in the eleventh life, he became a veteran.
It was also after this that Emperor Yun's illusion finally began to change.
In the twelfth, he began to step into the world of monks.
He became a little monk of alchemy, practicing under the hands of an elder of the sect, because he was clever and smart, so he was very liked by the elders, and his progress in cultivation was also good, and he happened to fall in love with the daughter of the sect master at first sight, and the two soon got engaged and became a well-known Taoist couple among the practitioners.
But suddenly war broke out.
Alien monks from nowhere swept across the world, they fought and retreated, gathered a large number of cultivators, and planned to fight against each other, but they were still defeated by each other, and both husband and wife fell.
Su Qi, who woke up from this life, gradually became serious in his expression, and he gradually discovered the common denominator in these lives.
Turning.
The life of every life is not ordinary.,At a certain point in time,The protagonist will usher in a change that affects the whole life.。
Either happy or sad.
The experience of every life is left in Su Qi's mind, he doesn't remember Su Qi's identity when he turns into a scholar or a veteran, and he doesn't know anything about the trial at all, just like a real, living person, experiencing a complete life, and when he wakes up as Su Qi, those experiences are still clear, and the pain, despair, surprise, anger, and shock when he experiences changes are all left in his mind.
It's a catastrophe of the heart.
Talent is an important thing for a monk, but there are also other things that determine how far a monk can go.
Mood is one of them.
The sword immortal's sword heart is pure, and its heart is as sharp as a sword.
And if Su Qi wants to continue to move forward on the path of cultivation, refining his mind is an inevitable hurdle for him to go through.
Now, Emperor Yun had advanced this matter for him.
This is a rare opportunity.
After realizing the ins and outs of the matter, Su Qi did not hesitate to devote himself to a new life.
