(The new book needs the most care, ask for all kinds of support!)

At night, the night is as cool as water, and the north wind is howling outside the window, and at first glance it sounds like a monster is crying and howling......

Chen Jianchen tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep - if the appearance of Qingyun Dao Chang represented one end of this world, then the appearance of the mandrill monster today represented the other end.

There are monks and demons, and the more mysterious the world becomes, the more urgent need for further understanding.

This feeling is exciting and fascinating, and it also makes Chen Jianchen have to wake up his spirits, face it well, and think more deeply about the way out.

It is necessary to improve the ability of one's body, and it is not enough to have a strong body...... But where does the ability come from, learning the Tao, or something else?

Several thoughts crossed me—

Unconsciously, Chen Jianchen fell asleep in contemplation.

The arrival of Qingyun Dao Chang was far expected, and at noon the next day, he appeared in Jingyang Village, Chen Jianchen was overjoyed when he saw him, and immediately followed him out, until he walked to Maziling.

Daoist Qingyun deliberately wanted to avoid everyone's eyes, and so did Chen Jianchen. As a scholar, getting too close to a Taoist monk will eventually attract criticism.

Qingyun Daochang's face was quite unsightly, especially when he took back the bell magic weapon, it was even more like someone had been slashed, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was very distressed: "The demon dares to destroy my magic weapon, damn it!"

It can be seen that this bell is not an idle thing for him.

Chen Jianchen pouted, this is not nonsense, could it be that the mandrill of the people will be restrained and wait to be killed? Having said that, he has to blame him for being too confident and underestimating the strength of the demon, which almost put Chen Jianchen in danger. However, these words can only be slandered, and they must not be spoken.

"Yesterday I learned that the magic weapon was damaged, so I came overnight to ......"

Hearing this, Chen Jianchen was sure in his heart, the bell magic device must have some kind of mental connection with Qingyun, and it can be connected, which should be the mystery of Taoism.

He took out the torn human skin again.

When Daoist Qingyun saw it, he took it and looked at it, and said, "Sure enough, it's a painted skin." ”

Chen Jianchen's heart jumped, and he pretended not to understand and asked, "What is painted skin?"

Qingyun stroked his beard and asked, "Do you believe that there are demons and monsters in the world?"

"Faith!"

Isn't this nonsense again? It's all alive in front of my eyes, and I don't believe it's a fool.

Qingyun smiled: "Childe, are you interested in listening to the poor Dao in detail?"

"Of course, I can't ask for it, I want to hear it. ”

Chen Jianchen was overjoyed, he just needed these extraordinary insights, Qingyun's words were right in the heart.

"Everything in the world has a spirit, and the only difference is whether it is enlightened or not......"

As soon as Qingyun spoke, he shook off his burden first: "...... Animals can be described as 'demons' after they are opened, plants and trees can be described as 'spirits' after they are opened, people die and their souls are not dispersed, and the yin is not recorded, which is called 'ghosts'; such as mud and rocks are opened, they are 'strange'......"

Chen Jianchen pricked up his ears and listened, and the more he listened, the more frightened he became: Dare to love This world is full of demons, and the demons are dancing wildly.

"Of course, it is not easy for ordinary goblins and ghosts to open their minds, and it often takes a long time; first, because they have no Dao method to teach, they can often only comprehend and comprehend the understanding alone; first, they themselves are inferior and stubborn, and it is difficult to understand the laws of heaven and earth. However, the country is about to die, there will be demons, and the more troubled the times, the more ghosts and monsters ......"

Speaking of this, Qingyun glanced at Chen Jianchen intentionally or unintentionally.

Chen Jianchen was stunned for a moment, at present, the country's rule is stable, and the four seas are peaceful, how can there be such a thing as a troubled era? Could it be that the Taoist chief means something, not referring to the present, but to the future?

He didn't ask this question abruptly, maybe Qingyun was just talking about it in passing.

"There are demons in the world, because there are monks, and there are ways to overcome them. Today, the orthodoxy of the Daomen is divided into three parts, one is the Shu Mountain outside the world, the other is the Kunlun Mountain outside the world, and the other is the place where the poor Tao was born, the overseas Laoshan - Shu Mountain sword cultivation, Kunlun is good at Qimen spells, and the Laoshan master is a talisman...... Of course, outside of the Three Mountains, there are other monastic sects, but they are not famous. ”

Chen Jianchen suddenly opened his mouth when he heard this, only to feel that his horizons were suddenly expanded, flying into the sea and enjoying the world, and hurriedly said with a smile: "It turns out that the Taoist chief was born in Laoshan Xianmen, and the kid is so admirable. ”

Qingyun smiled and waved his hand: "Poor Dao is just a registered disciple of the first outer court of Laoshan, so he entered the threshold...... We are waiting for the cultivation of the Tao, just for the sake of living forever, but how long this road is, there is an enlightenment - Yin God - Jin Dan - Yuan Ying - Fa Xiang - the realm of the six great tribulations of human immortals, and now the poor road is only the cultivation of the Yin God. ”

He told the story eloquently, and he had the intention to tell Chen Jianchen about the Daofa, but he deliberately wanted to plant a seed in Chen Jianchen's heart. In fact, goblins and ghosts are also cultivators, but they are doubly difficult, and it is difficult to have a period of great success. In Qingyun's mind, they belong to the "alien" existence and cannot be recognized.

Chen Jianchen really listened to it with relish and benefited a lot.

"The inheritance of Taoism does not pass on the six ears, does not go through pen and ink, and only ignites it with ideas. Therefore, the so-called formula, the so-called secret book, are all skins, not the essence......"

In other words, if there is no master to get started, even if there is a mantra and a secret book, it is only a blind man touching an elephant, and he cannot enter the door.

Cultivating the Tao is not easy. In this way, there will never be many true cultivators in this world.

Seeing that it was almost done, Qingyun stopped at the right time, pointed to the painting skin in his hand and said: "This thing also belongs to the category of magic weapons, it is made of human skin, and the demon can be clothed in human form, so as to turn sentient beings upside down." Hehe, how stupid people are in the world, they are obviously demons, and they think they are beautiful, which is sad and pathetic! And demons can use this to draw their skin, so that they can confuse men into intermingling with them, absorb essence and yang, and grow and cultivate. ”

Chen Jianchen nodded yes, groaned slightly, and just wanted to open his mouth and confess a little careful, but Qingyun over there seemed to have expected it and said first: "The son has a wise root, is clear and righteous, has a liver and gallbladder, and is also a dragon among people......;

was blocked by him all of a sudden, and Chen Jianchen was a little stunned.

Qingyun saw it in his eyes, and he didn't break it -- talking so much to Chen Jianchen was already a kind of point; first, with Qingyun's cultivation, he couldn't do anything at all; second, as soon as the cultivator entered the Dao Gate, he would get rid of the red dust. It almost doesn't matter what the world rises and falls, and what the people suffer. This has to be managed, that has to be managed, then it is not a cultivator, but an official. As for the subjugation of demons and demons, it has to be said otherwise, after all, it is out of the realm of the mortal world, and belongs to the struggle between cultivators and "aliens", just under the guise of saving the people.

In Qingyun's opinion, Chen Jianchen's personality clearly did not meet the requirements of the second path - at least not for now, and after a pause, he added: "Son, there is an uncle in the poor Dao who lives in Jiangzhou, and the Taoist name is 'Guanghan'. His way is unfathomable, and he is a true master of the world. However, he has always behaved mysteriously, and the dragon cannot see the tail, and even I have never seen his true face...... Well, if Childe really has the heart to ask, you can pay attention to one or two. If there is an opportunity to create, you may be able to worship under Uncle Guanghan. ”

Does this count as a bright future?

Chen Jianchen secretly remembered.

"Childe, that mandrill monster was injured and fled, if you ignore it, it will definitely be a disaster to the world again in the future, so the poor Dao wants to cut it off in person, are you interested in taking a look?"

Chen Jianchen replied with a smile: "I am willing to follow the left and right." ”
