Heaven is immortal, holding three precepts, turning into three purifications, and crossing three souls.

This is a precept that a monk must observe.

The precepts on the wall were extremely eye-catching, so that everyone who came to pray on the mountainside felt a sense of stability in their hearts.

"Today, the emperor's breath comes from the west, Pingqing, how about going down the mountain to invite nobles?"

The old Taoist priest sat cross-legged under the old locust tree in the courtyard, looking at the young man beside him and smiling lightly.

"The Emperor? Master, how many years is it now? ”

Pingqing looked helplessly at the white-haired old man, this old guy has always been a god, I don't know what to say, and today I talked about the emperor, he really didn't want to hit him, and it wasn't a feudal era, where did the emperor come from?

"Alas, Qing'er, these three precepts, abstaining from the heart, abstaining from desire, abstaining from delusion, and lust all start from the heart, your heart is not right, it is difficult to cultivate the true way, you go to chop wood today, and start all over again."

The old man shook his head, his disciple has no relationship with the way of heaven, he has cultivated too much, and he has cultivated in vain, and this time he has committed a false precept in his heart, which is really no way to cultivate.

"Huh? Master, I'm not going! ”

Pingqing's face was innocent, and he told him to chop wood? He was obviously already a spiritual cultivator, so why couldn't he go down the mountain to deal with demons and monsters with those senior brothers?

"It's okay, it's difficult for ordinary people to become talents, if you only cultivate the spirit and don't cultivate the mind, then you should go down the mountain, it will be difficult for the master to teach you anything."

The old man flicked his sleeves, stood up alone, and walked towards the gate.

"It's... Master, can I really go down? ”

Pingqing was very excited, he had wanted to go down the mountain for a long time, and he always listened to the senior brothers say what beauties, what Hongchen, he had long been fed up here.

"Go, you can't become a cultivator in this life, just a few decades, you can spend it in the mortal dust."

The old man waved his hand without looking back, and said that he understood life and death under the locust tree, but it was a pity that he had never taught a person who could comprehend in the past few decades.

"Cher, what kind of mountain is that?"

Liu Dongchen pointed to the mountain not far away, they left Nanming City three days ago, after Liu Dongchen and Ning Xue explained again and again, she still resolutely decided to follow her, Liu Dongchen had no choice but to wait for her to hide, he didn't want to expose the fact that he still had companions around him, and now depending on the situation, there is no movement on the side of Shanmeng Pavilion, which is a good opportunity to start.

"Nanli Mountain, this mountain is connected to Daxi Mountain but does not belong to Daxi Mountain, the map says that there is a Tianqing Temple on it, which is the cave of Tianqing Zhenjun."

Ning Xue carefully checked the map to make sure that what she said was correct and looked very serious.

"Oh, no wonder there are so many people."

Liu Dongchen retracted his gaze, this person has all lined up down the mountain, it should be quite effective here.

"Hehe, brother, why don't we go up and say goodbye?"

Ning Xue rubbed her hands with a smile, she really wanted to go up and take a look, how is this Immortal Cave Mansion, since she became a ghost, she is afraid of dying of these things.

"Silly girl! I met a Yin soldier before, who didn't even dare to enter the small city god temple, and you still dare to go to this kind of grand view to die? ”

Liu Dongchen pinched her little nose, she was really not afraid of death, she couldn't talk nonsense.

"Hmph, isn't it just a few stinky Taoist priests, I'm still .... Brother...."

Ning Xue was in a hurry, and suddenly had a bad premonition, and hurriedly hid behind Liu Dongchen.

"The little sister was offended a lot just now, and I hope that the Taoist is not strange."

Seeing the visitor, Liu Dongchen also felt a little bad, this old man exuded a strong aura, and this was the feeling after the other party tried his best to hide it, and the soul of the Gu Heavenly Emperor in his mind was also warning himself, the one who came was very dangerous!

"Those who don't know are not guilty, can you take a step to speak?"

The old man walked up to him and wanted to invite Liu Dongchen to follow him to a place.

"Distinguished guests? Haha, don't be kidding, where are the distinguished guests. ”

Liu Dongchen is very polite, he knows how powerful the other party is, he doesn't want to offend, this time the road is dangerous, and nothing can go wrong.

"Hey, it's a guest passing by, don't be nervous, I'm a cultivator, and I won't go back on my word."

The old man smiled lightly and led the way in front, Liu Dongchen had no choice but to follow, Ning Xue kept pulling the corners of his clothes tightly, for fear that the old man would suddenly make a move.

"Come, you two have tea."

The three of them came to the small pavilion at the foot of the mountain, and the old man skillfully brought them two cups of hot tea and sat down opposite them.

"Does the Taoist know that she is a ghost?"

Liu Dongchen picked up the teacup and gently smelled the faint fragrance, this question was very important to him.

"Yes."

The old man was concise and to the point, he already knew, so he didn't take them up.

"Oh, then I'm relieved, if the Taoist chief has anything to say, you can say it directly."

It seems that the other party is indeed not hostile, this time Liu Dongchen is relieved, if you can move your mouth, try not to do it.

"Wow, brother, I can actually drink the taste!"

Ning Xue originally wanted to try it, this tea smelled strange, but she didn't expect that after taking a sip, she could actually drink the taste, you must know that she is a ghost and has long been deprived of her sense of taste.

"Really?"

Liu Dongchen was dumbfounded, and hurriedly took a sip, he also knew the situation of Ning Xue, but he didn't expect such a magical thing.

"Haha, this tea is a Taoist tea for entertaining distinguished guests, regardless of whether it is high or low."

The old man picked up the teacup and took a sip as well, squinting his eyes, enjoying it very much.

"Can Xiaoyou's dangerous road be stopped for the time being?"

The old man put down the teacup, his expression was still indifferent, he had calculated this hexagram a few days ago, and he came here mainly for this today.

"Can you count me?"

Liu Dongchen felt more and more that this old man was incredible, did he even know what he was going to do?

"Haha, the emperor is also the chosen one, since it is the chosen one, the old man was born to count the heavens, how can he not know?"

The old man laughed and shook his head.

"Are you the Heavenly Array holder?"

Liu Dongchen stood up suddenly, he didn't expect to be afraid of anything, except for the Heavenly Array, he really couldn't think of anyone else who would know this.

"No, the Heavenly Array can only be counted as the front, the former is mostly unknown, since I know your past, then I naturally count the latter, the latter is the past, what can I do if I know the past or not?"

The old man looked at Liu Dongchen, raised the teacup in his hand, and took a sip alone, his face full of joy.

"Yes."

Liu Dongchen pursed his lips and sat back again, he couldn't change it whether he knew it or not, it was completely meaningless.

"The troubled times are coming, and this Shenzhou's competition cannot lack accumulation."

The old man looked at the tea leaves in the cup and sighed inexplicably.

"What do you mean?"

Liu Dongchen really didn't understand, what did this old man say? Gone?

"Haha, okay, can you answer me a question?"

"What?"

"What do you think the Tao is?"

The old man stared at Liu Dongchen, what Liu Dongchen needed was here, and what he needed was not in Liu Dongchen's hands, because the answer was too ethereal.

"What is the Tao?"

"Yes, what is the Tao?"

"The Tao is natural..."

Liu Dongchen was speechless, he could only endorse the book, these are the memories of the ancient emperor, how can he know what Tao is now.

"No, no, I want an intuitive answer, your thoughts!"

The old man shook his head, he didn't want other people's answers, he wanted Liu Dongchen's answers, some things were not his after all, knowing that those were useless.

"My own thoughts?"

Liu Dongchen frowned, this question really stumped him.

"Yes, you just tell me what the Tao is, the tea tube is enough, the hour will be handed over to you, and I will wait here."

The old man smiled and picked up the teapot and filled Liu Dongchen with a cup, he couldn't get this answer himself, and no one gave him this answer, even if Liu Dongchen gave up, he wouldn't say anything.

"Haha, I think that's probably the answer you want!"

"Sword!"

Liu Dongchen let out a low sigh, a golden streamer crossed the air, and in an instant, a golden sword was held in his hand.

"Oh? Let's hear it. ”

The old man's eyes were staring at Xuanyuan Sword, he didn't know what Liu Dongchen was going to say.

"What kind of sword is this?"

Liu Dongchen put the sword across his chest and let the old man observe.

"Holy Sword!"

The old man replied very simply.

"Then what is the way of this sword?"

"Holy Word!"

"What is the Word?"

"This..."

The old man couldn't answer for a while.

"I tell you, slaying demons and destroying demons is the holy way! Eating with the people is holy! The sun, moon and stars are the holy way! Peace in the four seas is the holy way! This world is the Holy Way! ”

Liu Dongchen's tone was sonorous and powerful, in his heart, this is the Tao, everything is the Tao.

"Hahaha, I see, I see!"

The old man laughed, he understood, he finally understood, what is the Tao in this world!

"I'm ashamed, the old man is already over half a hundred years old, and he has been hiding in this view all his life to realize the Tao, and today he finally understands the true meaning, alas, I'm really ashamed!"

The old man clasped his fists at Liu Dongchen and saluted, it seems that this is really providence.
