Chapter 220: The Buddha's Way, the Price
The Red Lotus Cave Mansion, which was built deep underground, was shrouded in darkness.
Under the guidance of a foundation-building monk, Zhang Lie and the four of them walked on the bridge-like underground mountain wall, and a bottomless abyss gradually emerged below.
"This Xiaoshan real person, I'm afraid it was not that he repented and re-entered the Tao, but found that he couldn't go through the devil's path by himself, so after taking half a foot out, he took the initiative to retreat."
It doesn't matter if you are loyal, loyalty is only because the price of betrayal is not enough.
This statement is believed by many people and accepted as the truth, but it is not.
Few people in the world are willing to pay a high price to a betrayer, most betrayers will only get a lie, most of the people who lure others to betray can't actually pay any valuable price, they can often only pay deception.
The same is true for entering the devil from the way, a hundred years of cultivation is not as good as a thought into the devil, but the devil's way is also to be amazingly talented, compared to the right way, the devil's way is not to be incompetent:
There is often a lot of protection at the bottom of the righteous path, and the bottom of the demon path is ......
When Zhang Lie's mind changed, under the guidance of the person in front of him, the four monks of the Zhang family walked into a cave.
You don't need to enter, you can already smell the unusually strong aroma of wine when you get close, and you can hear happy laughter in your ears, and you can know why when you enter the cave, in the cave there is a pool of mellow magma flowing, boiling a pool of mellow spirits, making the room full of incense and intoxicating.
The floor was covered with a thick blanket of young and beautiful girls, and a group of young and beautiful girls were feasting, boxing, gambling, and having fun, as if they were so happy that they didn't know where to go.
Even if someone entered the cave, they didn't notice it.
Spirits, beauties, food, feasts, these things that seem to have nothing to do with the monks, all come together here.
When the wine, meat, and snacks in the banquet are missing, there will be maids who will quickly come out of the darkness and add and replace them, but Zhang Lie glanced at it and noticed that although these maids standing in the dark can be called the best in the world, their eyes are motionless, as if the tray in front of them is the whole world.
"Puppetry? Mindset? Puppetry? Soul snatcher? ”
"It has nothing to do with me, gather your mind."
As soon as these doubtful thoughts came out of his heart, they were forcibly extinguished by Zhang Lie.
If it is just a big realm higher, in the face of a Purple Mansion monk, if you sacrifice your life, you can leave an unforgettable injury to the other party.
Facing the monks who were two realms higher, Zhang Lie was sure that he had exhausted his means, and he was afraid that he would not even be able to break the opponent's talisman power, dignity? Justice? In the face of absolute power disparities, these are meaningless.
"Zhang Xiangshen of the Zhang family in Chiyang Valley, Huanglong County, was summoned by the Shangzong and led the people to come to meet the ancestor."
Zhang Xiangshen held his hands together, held the Taoist salute, and bowed deeply to the white-haired and thin old man on the stone seat in front of him.
Zhang Lie, Zhang Chuanshu and Zhang Chuanhong, who were behind him, naturally hurriedly followed.
At this time, Xiao Shan Zhenren was flipping through the volume of the "Tiger Evil Star Secret Classic", although this set of magic skills could only be cultivated to the step of condensing the golden pill, and then the monk wanted to improve further, either transfer to other exercises, or try to derive the next step of his own exercises, but due to its ferocious and murderous characteristics, the combat power of the monks who cultivated the golden pill of the demon path was much more than that of ordinary knot pill grandmasters.
Therefore, even in the eyes of Xiao Shanzhen, this is also quite an interesting exercise.
"If someone has hatred, cultivates this "Tiger Evil Star Secret Codex" to break through the Ning Dan, and then successfully takes revenge, at this time, and then gives him a Taoist practice of pure heart and tranquility, can he turn from the devil to the way?"
It seems to be unconscious, Xiao Shan Zhenren said as he stroked the book in his hand.
“……”
Zhang Xiangshen was a little unsure of whether the ancestor on the other side said this to himself for a while, and he was busy with family affairs, and his comprehension of this book of magic skills was also insufficient, so he couldn't answer for a while.
Seeing that Xiao Shanzhen's expression of interest was gradually weakening, Zhang Lie, who was bowing down, was extremely keenly aware that the girls behind him, although they tried their best to hide and continue to have fun, still faintly revealed great fear.
With a horizontal heart in his heart, Zhang Lie gritted his teeth and took a step and said:
"It's very difficult, it's almost impossible. The "Tiger Evil Star Secret Codex" achieves enlightenment with hatred, and the exercise itself lacks further potential after condensing the golden pill, this kind of monk uses this foundation to transfer to the Dao Sect Dharma, and it is common sense that he will not be able to improve a few more steps in his life, if he really realizes a few points of the essence of the Dao, it may lead to the destruction of the two Spiritual Pills. ”
Zhang Lie had once comprehended this secret book to assist himself in cultivating killing intent, so he could answer this question.
"Could it be that this person can only go one way to the dark on the demon path? What if he wanted to turn back? Xiao Shan Zhenren on the stone seat asked again.
"Then it's best to practice Buddhism."
"Practicing Buddhism? Can you dispel anger? According to you, isn't the Tao inferior to the Buddha? The Dao Gate is vast, not as boundless as the Dharma? ”
Xiao Shanzhen's words seem to have some anger faintly.
Zhang Xiangshen, Zhang Chuanshu and Zhang Chuanhong were all sweating on their foreheads for a while, and the Xuanhuang World has always been prosperous and prosperous, and Buddhism has been less circulated.
And Xiaoshan Zhenren, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like a person who is inclined to Buddhism.
"Because Buddhism seeks Buddha and Taoism seeks Taoism, the Buddhism Jindan Gong can dissolve the anger of the Tiger Evil Star Secret Codex, but the Daomen Gong Law can't."
"Where is the Way?"
"The way is at your feet. Everyone's Tao is different, the first step in seeking the Tao is to recognize yourself, you have condensed the golden pill, if you have remorse, abandon the devil to the Tao, such a person can be said to have even given up himself, how can he cultivate the Tao? ”
"Buddhism has his crossing, and Taoism has only self-crossing."
Zhang Lie's words were not nonsense, but his own perception of cultivating Yijiazi: Life is in the world, and mistakes are wrong. Life is not acting, there is no rehearsal, there will be many choices along the way, there will be many mistakes, Taoism let you face these mistakes, bear these mistakes, Buddhism can pin on him.
“…… The road is under the feet, only self-crossing? ”
"Hehehehe, you are a little interesting, but I won't accept useless people, I won't arrange you in a safe and comfortable place, you have to make your own achievements, I will say that you are a member of the Zhang family, and I am a real person in Xiaoshan."
"Xie Zhenren."
"Alright, you all go down, and someone will arrange your next tasks."
After thanking them again, the four members of the Zhang family left with some excited expressions. It's just that when he was leaving, Xiao Shan Zhenren had another sentence from afar:
"The exercises you practice are quite interesting, but is it really worth paying such a price?"
When he heard this, Zhang Lie's whole person almost froze, but fortunately, he reacted quickly and noticed that the patriarch Zhang Xiangshen in front of him was stiff and strange.
However, this time is also very short, and soon, Zhang Xiangshen lowered his head and left in silence.
And behind the four of them, Xiao Shan Zhenren, who was looking for joy and drink day and night in the underground cave, did not say anything again.
"The price? What price does the patriarch have to pay for cultivating the Phaseless Technique? In Buddhism, there is peace and tranquility, and there is usually no power to fight back. ”
