Chapter 366: Useless Use

It is very difficult for monks to start over, although there is a saint's master, but they themselves have clearly realized that a new era and a new trend have arrived, and the time and place are not on their side, and there is no guarantee that they can become immortals, and even the saint is not very sure.

Therefore, he was afraid of leaving his grandson and ignored the persuasion of the Lingbao Daoists, and resolutely threw himself into the arms of the Western Sect.

Although Lingbao Dao people still insist, they are not full of confidence. Especially when I saw Yun Yao, a monk blessed by luck, he could simply do anything to obtain cultivation and merit. The new era obviously has a new protagonist, and there is not much chance of being eliminated in the battle of the gods and eliminating the old antiques with the five qi in the chest.

In the West, they still have the opportunity to be a Buddha in the world, and there is no hope of staying in the Central Plains to become immortals, so they can only watch themselves being eliminated, which is really unacceptable for the monks who were once immortals.

Even Yun Yao, who is an outsider, can feel their deep helplessness, and it is precisely because of this that he admires the Lingbao Dao people who can continue to persevere.

Confucius didn't seem to find that he lacked a few disciples, after all, he had too many disciples, and although he was afraid of leaving his grandson, although they followed for a long time, they never entered the core of the seventy-two disciples, so let's go.

"Sister, hungry." The silly aunt immediately begged for food when she saw Yun Yao, and her little belly really never pretended to be dissatisfied.

Yun Yao took out a baked cake and gave it to her, and the silly aunt immediately quieted down.

"Are you really going to give her the Seven Tricks Lin Longxin?" Qingxu Daoist saw Yun Yao take the magic weapon from the hands of the Western Sect monk, but he didn't understand why Yun Yao gave the magic weapon to the foolish girl: "Although the foolish girl is pitiful, I don't think she has a fairy fate, and she is already lucky to be taken in by you, why do you want to help her soar?" ”

Of course, it's because Yun Yao is not uncommon with the Seven Tricks Exquisite Heart, she has annual rings, as long as she can analyze the energy of the Seven Tricks Exquisite Heart, she can copy it in minutes. Therefore, what is important to Yun Yao is not the magic weapon itself, but the trace of heavenly dao represented by the magic weapon.

"My master has long taught me that seeking the Tao is not to seek all things, the Tao is born in one life, two and two are born in three or three to give birth to all things, the Tao has evolved thousands of magic weapons, and the immortals are also obsessed with using magic weapons to suppress their luck, but the magic weapons are not the way of heaven, if you are obsessed with the magic weapons, you will eventually not be able to see the way of heaven clearly." Yun Yao didn't tell the other party that he had the plug-in of annual rings, but just said that he was asking for the way of heaven, not the treasure itself.

"But if you don't comprehend the Dharma Weapon, how can you understand the Tao in the Dharma Weapon? If you give the magic weapon to others, won't you be able to enlighten yourself? Qingxu Daoist couldn't help but ask, the magic weapon can only be helpful in his own hands, he has never heard that the magic weapon in the hands of others can still help him cultivate, otherwise why would the immortals not kill people and seize the treasure?

Yun Yao couldn't explain that he had the secret of being able to grasp other people's magic weapons through practice, theory, and practice, so he could only say: "If the magic weapon can really protect the monk from death, then the Sanxiao Niangniang who put down the Nine Curves of the Yellow River Array will not be killed by Lao Tzu and the sage of teaching." The so-called magic weapon can protect oneself is just an illusion of the monk, if the will of heaven really wants to kill, then any magic weapon is useless. So I think the monks are wrong, and instead of relying on magic weapons, it is better to follow the will of heaven. Yun Yao said a big truth with a small mouth, of course, this is all her own nonsense, without any basis and no evidence.

But the Qingxu Daoist did not refute, but nodded in agreement, as one of the victims of the War of the Gods, he deeply understood. "In the battle of the gods, the immortals would not have waded into the muddy waters if they hadn't relied on their magic weapons, but in the end, the magic weapons didn't protect us. The disciples of the sect were killed and injured heavily, and the cultivation of the disciples of the sect was completely lost. If we don't have a magic weapon, we will definitely have concerns, but we don't dare to go out of the mountain, so we can save ourselves. "From this point of view, it is because the immortals are too confident in their magic weapons, which leads to their own death. If they can also look down on the magic weapon with Yun Yao and go with the flow, they won't be on the list.

"That's true." Qingxu Dao Chang couldn't help but nod in agreement with Yun Yao's words, because it did make sense, he continued: "In the past, the immortals died for the magic weapon, and the magic weapon was originally to assist in cultivation, but in the end it became the cause of death, which is sad and lamentable, if they all sacrificed everything to seek the way of heaven like you, they would not die." ”

Yun Yao's view is a bit like Zhuangzi's 'useless use', and Zhuangzi is to promote 'uselessness'. Although the magic weapon is good, it is not as good as the magic weapon.

If you only see the good of the magic weapon, and you don't see the good without the magic weapon, you will fall into death.

The Qingxu Dao people only knew that 'having a magic weapon' had many benefits before, but they didn't think that 'not having a magic weapon' was just as beneficial.

Usefulness is a way, and uselessness is also a path.

Zhuangzi is the 'useless use', useless in the eyes of everyone, in the eyes of Zhuangzi can find a special role. For example, if the branches of an ugly tree are bent and do not become wood, no one will think of cutting it down to get wood, so the tree will live for hundreds of years and become fine.

In the eyes of others, a tree that does not become a tree is useless, but for the tree itself, life is useful.

Another time someone asked Zhuangzi, what is the use of your words?

Zhuangzi replied, 'It's useless,' but he asked rhetorically, "What good is the foothold under your feet if it is not supported by the vast land around you." "This means that everything has a 'useless' side, and the reason why it is useful is because of the comprehensive environment.

Zhuangzi's remarks may be useless in the eyes of others, but the 'useless use' will not disappear, and the uselessness is also a usefulness, and it will not change because of anyone's subjectivity.

Qingxu Daoist comprehended this truth through Yun Yao's flickering, and suddenly felt that his state of mind was unprecedentedly calm, as if he would never make waves for anything again, and the world in his eyes was suddenly full of meaning, because uselessness is also a kind of usefulness, and the rise of his mood was even higher than that of the previous Golden Immortal.

"The master said that there must be my teacher in the threesome, and he will not deceive me." Qingxu Taoist saluted Yun Yao and expressed his gratitude.

Yun Yao was very helpless, why did he also understand? Obviously, the truth is said from his own mouth, but it is always someone else who understands it first, which is also too annoying.

Yun Yao wanted to cry without tears, except for envy, she didn't know how to express her depressed mood now. So she could only ask Yan Hui cheekily: "I don't know if you can talk to me and let me know what you have realized?" ”

"Absolutely."

Yun Yao's flickering just now is also practice, the Qingxu Daoist extracted the theory from practice, and now through the practice of the Tao again, if Yun Yao can also extract the theory in it, she can also improve her cultivation.

"I just comprehended the useless use of 'no magic weapon'......" Qingxu Daoist talked eloquently, talking about his feelings: "Within the Three Realms, everything is useless, everything useful is useless, the way of heaven is invisible, changes are tangible, useful and useless are unpredictable. "Yan Hui's body Dao fruit has been completed, and he can feather and soar at any time.

Everything that is done is useless, everything that is useful is useless?

Relative usefulness and absolute uselessness. Usefulness is relative, uselessness is absolute. Nothing works for everyone, and there will always be people who find it useless.

Yun Yao also seems to have an understanding, as for whether she has an understanding or not, only she knows.
