Chapter 4: Sermons
Tianxuan Peak!
The trees are verdant, the cranes are paused in the treetops, and in front of a large hall at the end of the mountain road, the bursts of cigarette smoke go up to the world.
The way away from Luo was very slow, he thought a lot along the way, at the moment of stepping on the peak, he looked at the endless cloud mountains and mountains in front of him, looking at the great rivers and mountains, and his thoughts were clear, many doubts, and many hesitations suddenly opened up at this moment. "I want to cultivate this way, I want to cultivate better than anyone else, no one can understand what the Tao is, then let me solve it. β
"Ask the Ask Palace!"
Looking at the three big characters on the main hall in front of him, he did not pause, strode up the long stone steps, neatly pushed open the bulky door of the main hall, and said: "Grandpa, I'm here." β
'I know you're back, so I've been waiting!'" said the voice of Qingfuzi in the hall.
Looking at the sound of the fall, at the end of the hall, Qingfengzi sat cross-legged, and a roll of bamboo slips was floating in front of him.
"Come!" Qingfengzi beckoned.
Liluo walked close to Qingfengzi and bowed down deeply, this time Qingfengzi did not stop again, but laughed loudly and said: "Good! good! It seems that I have another apprentice today." β
The old man's words made Liluo look happy, and he had the meaning of accepting him as an apprentice, and the meaning of formally accepting him as an apprentice was different, and Liluo secretly said in his heart: "I am here in this world, I am here in this fairy, I am here in this way, are you ready?"
Looking at Liluo's clenched hands, Qingfengzi said softly: "Don't be afraid, child, no matter what time it is, I am in front of you, and everything has me." β
I have everything in my heart, and at this moment, I really accepted this old man, this master, and this Tianxuanzong, the last sect!
"Master!"
Liluo knelt on his knees, dark and respectful, facing Qingfengzi, and buckled his head heavily!
"Bang bang bang!" a total of three times, and a dull voice echoed in the main hall.
"Sit down?" Qingfengzi looked at Liluo's actions, happy from the bottom of his heart, and pointed to a futon next to him and said to Liluo.
Sit down!
"Now the teacher will preach for you! Are you ready?"
Liluo nodded.
Qingfengzi straightened his beard and said slowly: "A long, long time ago, probably at the beginning of the era, at that time, there were only fools on the earth who drank blood, birth, old age, sickness and death were their worst enemies, and it was common for white-haired people to send black-haired people, that was their sorrow. But they are still alive and strong, multiplying from generation to generation. β
"Until one day a person called "Dao", he stood on the top of the mountains and rivers, watched the rotation of the sun and the moon, the change of day and night, the surging wind, the ebb and flow of the tide, so enlightened, knew the transformation of yin and yang, the five elements are connected, and understood the law, this law can fly to the sky and the earth, thousands of miles in an instant, and the high and deep places can stand between the stars and rivers, and pick the heaven and the earth and the sun and the moon
"The god of this law can also prolong life, the face will last forever, and the reincarnation will increase a lot of longevity out of thin air, until it is separated from life and death. This law is the way, take the meaning of the way of heaven and earth, that person preaches the world, and those who obtain this law get its truth, so the cultivation of the Tao is also called the one who cultivates the truth. Where did this come from, can you write it down?"
"Written down!
Qing Fengzi continued: "All living beings are mortal, and it is right to conform to the principles of heaven! Those who can cultivate go against the principles of heaven, steal the energy of heaven and earth, and avoid birth, old age, sickness and death, is to be rebellious, the evil of humanity is slaughtered by everyone, and the gods of heaven and earth are punished by heaven and earth, and those who cultivate the truth are against heaven and earth, and they go against the rules of heaven and earth, and they act against the heavens, and heaven and earth will be repelled, and with the growth of strength, the rejection of heaven and earth will become more and more powerful. At this time, the catastrophe is coming!"
"Three calamities and nine tribulations, the slightest carelessness is a catastrophe, in order to survive, cultivators can only enhance their strength, but the higher the strength, the higher the calamity, this is an infinite cycle with no solution. You must always be prepared to face danger! Luo'er, you are ready to step into this infinite loop, ready to enter this heaven and earth, fight against heaven and earth, and fight against the way of heaven so that you can live well? Even if there is darkness ahead, you have to rely on the light in your heart to go on?
The old man is both an inquirer and a professor! He wants to plant a seed in his heart! Let time irrigate it, and one day in the future it will blossom and bear fruit. He believed that this seed would allow him to go far, far on the way!
"Then why can people still cultivate the Tao, and heaven and earth don't allow it directly?"
Qingfengzi smiled: "I don't know either! Just listen to it, there are no answers to these questions for the teacher, you can find them yourself in the future!"
"Cultivator! Feel the pneumatic, set up the road foundation, build the Yuan platform, listen to the sky, build a heavy building, turn ten directions, and reach the only one. Every step of the way has gone through tribulations, spanning life and death, and cultivators fighting with the heavens and fighting with themselves. This is an eternal principle that has never changed, you have to take every step well, steadfast, so that you can go further!"
Qing Fengzi paused, and then said: "There are very few who meet the conditions of cultivators, none of the hundred thousand are normal, yang veins, cultivators cannot achieve the body of non-yang veins. I don't have to worry about you, I checked your physique by the way to save you at that time, your meridians are wide and the veins are tough, and the yang veins are in line with the foundation of cultivation, otherwise you will not only have to put in dozens of times more effort than others, but the result may not be what it is.
"The second is the will, the path of cultivation is long and lonely, there are many calamities, all kinds of demons, there is no indomitable, unwavering will, sooner or later you will lose yourself. "But I can't decide on this point, everything depends on yourself, whether you can not be fascinated by the flashy world, will not be misled by the evil of human nature, qualifications and will, you have the basic foundation of a cultivator! With the qualifications to go on the road, as for how far you can go, it depends on how you go. β
Emperor Luo nodded as if he didn't understand!
"Okay! I told you too much at one time, and you can't accept it, go back to Qinglan Peak, your senior sister will arrange a place for you to live!" Qing Fengzi put away the bamboo slip in front of him and got up to leave.
"My senior sister?" Liluo's tone was surprised.
Qing Fengzi smiled for a moment: "That's the crazy girl you saw just now, don't look at her like that, she is very talented and is definitely more than enough to be your senior sister." You can rest assured that your other senior sisters and brothers are all very good! But they basically don't have any experience inside and outside the sect, there are only two people in the sect, one is your seventh senior sister Nalan Yan, and the other is your fourth senior brother Nie Kui, your senior sister you have seen, your fourth senior brother is obsessed with alchemy, and he rarely stays in his Yunchuan Ridge all year round, but you will be able to see it tomorrow. β
"Tomorrow is the day you open your pulse, the first step of cultivation, they want to come to witness, maybe your fourth senior brother can give you a surprise! That kid has a lot of good things in his hands, I'm a little red-eyed! Okay, go and rest, it's important to get ready for tomorrow!" Qingfengzi patted Liluo's shoulder, and the figure gradually drifted away.
"What do you mean by the first step?" Liluo was very puzzled, and after a while, he shook his head and smiled: "Mediocre people disturb themselves, everything is waiting for tomorrow, isn't it all clear?"
Leaving the Daoist Palace, Liluo walked all the way to Qinglan Peak!
The night was approaching, and before he returned to the hut, Nalan Yan was waiting for him, and when he saw him, he said directly: "How is it? Is it fun? Is that old man looking unfathomable again? Is there a lot of words? I guess that the first time I asked, he told me for a whole day, and I was going to be annoyed!"
Looking at Nalan Yan's eccentric appearance, I couldn't help but wonder, is this still the sentimental and vicissitudes of Nalan Yan just now?
"What do you want?" Nalan Yan leaned in front of Liluo with a sly expression.
Liluo looked at the big eyes that were only rolling around, put away the suspicion in his eyes, waved his hand and said, "I didn't think about anything, I just think what the master said is very reasonable, I tasted it carefully and was a little distracted!"
"He can only deceive you, I'm not fooled, he looks like a clichΓ© when he says something, a word is awkward, you have a really good personality! Leave me early!" Nalan Yan's mouth curled, and her words were full of disgust, and she sketched this picture in her mind, a scene when the master preached to her, how verbose it must have been, to leave such a shadow on Nalan Yan!
"I'm glad I left the fall!"
After a few casual words with Nalan Yan, he returned to the hut, lying on the wooden bed, his thoughts wandering! Today he accepted too many things at once, and his brain was a little confused, he had to take care of it!
"Searching for immortals is fruitless, I can be regarded as finding it, right? I didn't expect that I would really be able to come into contact with a different world one day, this world is still so big, so mysterious!"
Outside the house, Nalan Yan sat on a lawn, watched the sun set, and said to herself: "Tomorrow will be the opening of the pulse, I don't know if he can do that level, if he is better than me, then my senior sister will not be good." β
Nalan Yan holds her cheeks with her hands and puffs out her cheeks, which is very cute! Only at this time can she have a hint of a daughter!
......
At sunset, Tianxuanzong was already deserted on weekdays, but at this moment, it added a sense of silence and etherealness!
......
It's night!
It's time to sleep......
