Chapter 131: Reading Ten Thousand Books (Part II)
After a soft sound, there was no more sound.
Lu Beichen looked around, found that there was no movement, unconsciously touched his ears, and then continued to walk to the library and closed the small door.
"The water is flexible and soft. The ebb and flow of the water, the waterfall that cascades to 3,000 feet, and even the slowly flowing stream all contain an unknown immense power. However, the nature of water is cold, and it is easy to choose a place to raise spirits to build water lotus, but in the subsequent absorption of power, it is necessary to endure the cold in order to succeed. ”
"The fire is gentle and upward. The magma emitted by the volcano, the sea of fire formed by forging the sword, and the place where the sun shines directly all contain corresponding powers. The power of fire is like the scorching sun, hot and fierce. Therefore, it is necessary to withstand the heat in order to succeed. ”
The sound of reading sounded again, and a trace of melancholy came to my heart for no apparent reason.
This book is probably an introduction to all things in nature, focusing on the analysis of their significance to the cultivation of the human race.
All things in the world perceive existence through mutual perception, and become aware of happiness through mutual communication.
The fire in summer and the ice in winter, no matter how majestic and magnificent, are only a form of strength, and every plant and tree, no matter how insignificant, will still vigorously convey its will to the world.
In short, all beings should abide by a rule that cannot be easily broken.
However, Lu Beichen doesn't seem to have found the rule that should be followed, because he has been on a new road one day without a companion.
Ordinary people determine the attributes of the lotus seed according to the attributes of the five elements, and then choose the appropriate environment to build the foundation, so as to embark on an orthodox avenue.
On that road, they will have a lot of companions. Those fellow travelers will gradually evolve into competitors and allies, and they will become important or unimportant scenery on everyone's growth path.
And the path he chooses may be the only one from beginning to end.
People are afraid of being different.
People can't help but be afraid of loneliness.
In fact, I am indeed different from others all the time.
He was born with a different body structure from ordinary people, and the stone on his neck was also different from ordinary stones, until he was finally able to practice now, and he unconsciously embarked on a completely different path.
Thoughts are overflowing, and countless puzzles come to my heart.
The lion saw that he was in a daze, slowly stood up, and kicked him without heaviness or lightness.
Lu Beichen was startled, and the consciousness that was indulging in the spiritual world and unwilling to extricate himself suddenly withdrew, and his facial features were a little deformed in shock.
The lion picked up a piece of paper out of nowhere, gently held the pen, and wrote a line on it.
Before he could fully recover from Fang Cai's shock, Lu Beichen fell into another surprise again, unable to hide the curiosity in his heart, and said softly, "You...... Can you write?"
He didn't know why the unlocked lion didn't say a word anymore, and he didn't know how the red lion came back to life, but he felt that such an immortal red lion was a little less fierce but a little more cute.
The immortal red-haired male lion would actually accompany a teenager to read in this library pavilion, which is already an incredible thing. However, what I didn't expect was that in the following time, the red lion would play the role of a life mentor, educating a teenager who was confused and unable to extricate himself by writing human words.
"Do you know why the title of King of Beasts fell to the Tiger Clan?"
On the white paper, a line of eye-catching text suddenly appeared.
Lu Beichen looked at the line of words, pondered for a moment, and nodded.
It was a story so far away, so far away that most of it had probably been forgotten. But just like Lu Beichen said before, what happened happened after all, and it will not completely dissipate because of the renewal of the world.
In the world of human books, there is naturally no shortage of records about the stories of beasts.
The lion clan belongs to the demon clan and is the upper life in the demon clan world, known for its strong bloodline and extremely high talent. They are born with a strong physique, and they don't need to practice and grow as hard as the human race, and they already have the ability to defend and kill enemies.
There will never be only one clan in the upper life, after all, there is competition to form a stable life world, in terms of innate strength and cultivation potential, the lion clan and the tiger clan are not comparable.
Three hundred years ago, the debate about who was the king of beasts, the tiger and the lion, never stopped, until two lions appeared, and the title of the king of beasts finally fell to the tiger clan, and the lion clan was relegated to the second place.
Today, three hundred years later, the lion and tiger are still equally powerful. It's just a thing like a name, and it won't fall off easily when it's always installed, after all, it's hard to change this kind of thing.
There has long been a consensus in the world that the "King of Beasts" is synonymous with the Tiger Clan.
"Do you know that the story of the two lions recorded in the Daozang actually ended not in romance, but in cruelty?"
In the white paper, a line of words appeared again.
Lu Beichen's expression was slightly grim, and he unconsciously remembered some of the fragments of the picture he saw that day.
In that day's battle, whether it was the lion's roar or the shadowless step, Lu Beichen was understanding the red lion. The pictures I saw in the spiritual realm that day were romantic, warm and sweet, and some were not so beautiful.
It was precisely because I saw those pictures, saw those tears, and saw that weakness that the Sun and Moon Sword was able to find a position that would break with one blow.
But because of this, he also felt guilty for a lot of days.
The real ending of the two lions who cultivated together into divine beasts in the story is not wandering the world, but life and death.
After experiencing the beauty of cultivation in the world, in the end we can only be separated by heaven and earth, what do you want to tell me?
The clear eyes suddenly lost color, Lu Beichen turned his head slightly, looked at the lion, and did not speak.
Mind comprehension is the key to communicating with the orcs, even if there are no words.
The lion seemed to read something from those eclipse eyes, and once again wrote a line on the blank paper.
"I'm the only one, and I don't regret it. ”
A glimmer of light finally appeared in his gloomy eyes, Lu Beichen frowned slightly, and read softly, "I am the only one, I have no regrets." ”
In an instant, he understood a lot.
The Leo Clan's direction of cultivating adults should be their eternal practice law, because this is the requirement of fate. Three hundred years ago, however, the lion in front of him felt like a curse.
Unwilling to follow the instructions of the Wheel of Life, it was determined to break through this curse, but instead cultivated in an extremely strange way of cultivation, until one day it was discovered by the patriarch and expelled from the clan.
Finding a different way and finding another big way on your own should be a major event to be included in the "Shocking History", but it was shelved for many years before this story was included in "The Legend of a Hundred Beasts".
Obviously, at the time, such behavior was completely deviant and unknowing. But today, 300 years later, the number of immortal red lions has gradually increased, and this story has not been forgotten after all, and it has been recorded to inspire future generations.
Although the story included in the Daozang is mixed with many elements of fiction, it has proved the value of the story and the recognition of the two pioneering red lions.
In a long enough period of time, some things that were once denied will begin to be affirmed at a certain turning point. Some rules that were once believed in by the world will also face a situation of complete rejection.
The rules of the Heavenly Dao and the eyes of the world should never be a stumbling block to the path of cultivation.
Red Lion's message couldn't be simpler – the world is so big, it's so long, and being yourself is the key, because that's what it did.
The words deviant and reckless behavior have always been in its ears, but after living for more than 300 years, looking back, it deeply admires its courage.
It also punished itself for many years, and it was not until the day Lu Beichen appeared that it finally ended its wishful thinking obsession.
......
......
Lu Beichen smiled slightly, let out a long sigh, and put down the book in his hand.
(It means that every time I write about lions, I inexplicably have a very warm feeling, maybe I was too curious about whether the lion was really so fierce when I was a child, so I unconsciously made up a warm red lion in my brain...... Of course, where will the red lion we have here be so warm...... )
