The vast ocean, with a slight breeze and a hint of coolness.

As far as the eye can see, the thick darkness engulfs the world in the distance, and the dark clouds gradually dissipate, revealing the light of the full moon.

The clear moonlight is sprinkled on the surface of the sea, sparkling, and the vast moon rises from the sea and sky, reflecting all things.

Li He looked at the scene of the bright moon on the sea, and couldn't help but be a little dazed.

"What's the name of that sea?"

Hua Lei glanced at it, knew where the island owner was inquiring, and replied: "It is a place of deep sea, vast and immense, even if you are a master of the Tao, you can't get a full glimpse of it."

It is rumored that from ancient times to the present, there are many aspirants who go to sea to seek the way, but they are gone. ”

Hua Lei sighed: "Although some Taoist priests who are brave and brave go to the deep sea, they are still in the known sea area, and if they go farther, it is a forbidden place for life, and it is difficult for Taoist priests to survive." ”

Although these rumors were all hearsay, he also understood what Li He meant, not to mention them ordinary low-grade Taoist priests, even if they were really Dao Kingdom Heavenly Masters, were there people who explored the deep sea? Not necessarily, I'm afraid

The owner of the paper island is mostly looking at things and thinking about things, and he is a little shocked by the bright moon rising in front of him.

Indeed, the monastic path is to constantly detach and increase the number of lifespans.

Is there anything more ancient than the sun and the moon, mountains and seas? Every time I see these vast landscapes, I feel that time passes, the years are ruthless, and I feel small and weak.

Auspiciousness and bad omen are the laws of the Great Dao, which are extremely strong, but they are also relative. Even if a seven-grade bad omen is a disaster in the world, how far can it be extended? Maybe you can't even cross two seas, let alone the endless deep sea.

For the vast world, all things in the world, all living beings, are just a short journey.

A person's life is a hurried passerby, time is like a river, and the deceased is like a river.

Li He saw the moonlight scattered all over his body, and said: "Only by seeing the vastness of heaven and earth can we know that manpower is small, even if we are always diligent, but we are also easy to get tired and fearful.

The road of seeking the Tao is in the wide, in the refinement, and the act and reflection, so that it can be long-lasting. ”

After hearing this, Hua Lei endured it and finally said: "Only a peerless genius like you, an adult, can think so far-reaching."

Ordinary people, like me, have barely obtained auspiciousness, struggling to survive, have exhausted all their strength, and have no hope to talk about it.

To be alive is the biggest difficulty.

No matter how much time passes, no matter how much everything goes against the tide, a hundred years in a hurry, birth, old age, sickness and death, there are not too many traces, and there is not much attention, maybe only relatives and friends remember to exist.

After a hundred years, if even the name disappears and the relatives leave, there will be no trace of it completely. ”

Li He nodded and asked, "I just heard that you are the owner of Remnant Fish Island, have you ever been married, and you still have relatives alive?" ”

Hua Lei looked at Mingyue with a face, and vaguely showed a wry smile: "As early as when I was a child, my parents passed away, and now thirty years have passed, struggling and working hard, and finally obtaining the achievement of the Nine Rank Daoists, but facing a bad omen recovery."

For people like me, the so-called marriage is a bit unrealistic. is already living in a pool of blood, and if it actively exposes its weaknesses, it can only be torn to pieces.

In the past, I had some physiological needs, so I went to those happy islands, indulged in a night, and enjoyed the joy of fish and water.

Getting up the next day without any responsibility is probably the best outcome for everyone.

As for now, he is as cold as a corpse, how can he still have that leisure and elegance. ”

After speaking, Hua Lei smiled evilly: "But you, the island owner, walking with the picturesque girl Kang Li, are envious of others." ”

Li He waved his hand: "Do you think that if you are successful in cultivation, you can avoid most troubles?"

Yes and no.

As you said, there is no one who dies well to those who walk on this path. You don't think the paper body is some kind of delicate skin, do you? Since it can suppress your water corpse arm, then you should also think about its origin. ”

Hua Lei touched his arm thoughtfully, the rough and pale arm, numb but not warm, like some kind of weird deep performance, he couldn't help but tremble.

Li He continued: "Who can guarantee that he is an eternal powerhouse? Take cultivation as an example, in your eyes, the seven grades may be unattainable.

But what about those Dao Kingdom Heavenly Masters, Shenrui Tribulation Venerables, and terrifying existences that affect heaven and earth?

So what does it mean to be successful in cultivation? There are many more challenges after success, and there are no bounds.

As long as there is desire, it is impossible to really let go. ”

Hua Lei scratched his head, his face was embarrassed: "I didn't think about it so much, I was running around since I was a child, when I was hungry, I just wanted to have hot noodle soup to drink, when I was wearing rags, I hoped that one day I would be covered with a big quilt, and when I was bullied, I thought about practicing Taoism, and if I could be like those Taoist masters, no one would dare to bully me."

But now it seems that there is food and clothing, and no one dares to provoke on weekdays, but there are more distractions and unwillingness.

I wanted to live, I was only in my thirties, and I didn't want to die.

Now that I think about it, I really came step by step, and I had to step into the abyss, and many things were not something I could decide. ”

After hearing this, Li He quite agreed: "Life is not up to oneself, and all living beings are suffering."

When I talk to you about this, I don't mean to accuse anything from a high position, but I think that a person's life.

No matter how big or small the achievement, the Tao is high or low, it is to move forward with the tide, the moment time passes, you will go forward a point, remember as much as you can remember, you don't have to suffer from gains and losses, why bother mediocrity.

Cultivation is the same, the so-called cultivation to a certain level, you can solve the problem, but it is not right at all.

Omens are revived, calamities are frequent, and I have suffered more than you.

However, you must first believe in yourself and practice in order to reach a deeper realm. It is not to reach the corresponding state before we are convinced that it is feasible.

This is the essence of suppressing broken thoughts and strengthening the Dao heart! ”

Hua Lei looked at Li He, only to see that he was covered in moonlight, embedded in the vast bright moon, and his white clothes fluttered like a fairy, like a god.

At this moment, Hua Lei had an intuition, the quiet man in front of him was fearless and fearless, even those terrible omen and disasters were like clouds in front of him. Such characters are the true cultivators.

Hua Lei bowed and said respectfully: "Lord Xie's guidance, listening to your words, my heart suddenly brightened, but I still have to think about it quietly." ”

Li He smiled: "Under the moon, you and I don't distinguish between high and low, don't talk about right or wrong, this is in line with the bright moon on the sea." ”

Hua Lei was stunned, silent for a long time, and his body suddenly relaxed.

Although he was frolicking and exaggerated before, he was wary of facing the owner of Paper Island after all. But today's remarks, I suddenly felt that the cultivator in front of me was not like a great monk with a terrifying omen, but was no different from an ordinary person, a wise man with a more transparent mind.

He continued to paddle forward: "Your Excellency, you are really different from other monk lords. ”

Li He asked, "Oh, how is it different?" ”

Hua Lei thought for a while and replied: "Affinity, well, it's more like a human."

I have also seen some Taoist priests of the seventh or eighth grade, each with the power of life and death in their hands, but they are almost the same as weird, and even more cruel methods.

If that's all it takes, after all, if you have too much contact with the bad omen, you'll be affected by it. But they don't want to ask for it, and they don't have the incisive insights of adults, which is really almost meaningful.

If you want me to say, my lord, your level is at least the level of the Third Rank Great Heavenly Master. ”

Li Heluo smiled: "Your kung fu is not bad, no wonder you can start from scratch and become a nine-grade Taoist."

Everyone has their own way of survival, those who are good at studying painstakingly seek, those who are good at communicating have long sleeves and good dancing, and those who are good at practicing sit and talk about the Tao. There is no such thing as high or low, and if you despise others because of your own strengths, that is the greatest stupidity.

There is a way to cultivate, the number of three thousand, and one of them is gone.

Our way, through the catastrophe to be blessed, to preserve the spirit of the truth, the dignity of the world. ”

Hua Lei didn't answer this time, just turned around silently and bowed to him.

He could feel that Li He's words were not edification and persuasion, but more like a respected sage, casually making a few remarks. As for how much you can understand, it depends purely on the individual.

Li He was also not interested in forcing others to listen to his reasoning, and even took the initiative to propose the Three Thousand Great Roads and escape to one of them. This is to encourage Hua Lei to move forward according to his own path.

The paddle was faster, and its pale arms gradually molted and grew fresh red flesh in the moonlight.

Hua Lei's whole temperament has also become more tranquil.

The boredom and depression that had been pressing on my heart before seemed to disappear.

Who said that the owner of the remnant fish island is worse than those guys, and when the opportunity comes, the wind and clouds will turn into dragons!

Pierce this layer of window paper, and it will be the so-called shape! Whatever is visible is sought, not too difficult.

The bright moon rose from the sky, and Li He sat behind him and smiled.

Enlightenment and enlightenment, one foot in the door, easy to say but difficult. How many people are stuck here, and they can't make an inch in their lives.

If you are lucky to meet here, you can count him as a kid.

……

The moon is full tonight, and the harbor is quiet.

Only the boatmen who had no money were left, still sitting on their big boats, looking at the bright moon in the distance, and drinking alone.

"Damn Ma Tou'er, treacherous and deceitful, win all Lao Tzu's money, go to Baihua Cave to have a good time, it is estimated that the drama of the dragon and the phoenix will be staged.

There are also the two brothers of the Hu family, who said that they embezzled some treasure money with them, and they were so deducted that they were unwilling to borrow a cent, and they were so good to them in the past, they were really white-eyed wolves. ”

Yan Ju, the boatman, sat on the railing, counting the unconscionable feelings of the workers.

Drunk and hazy, I suddenly noticed some movement at the water's edge, and in the blink of an eye, only the water rippled and there was no change.

Yan Ju rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had drunk too much, and just wanted to return to the cabin to sleep, when he was suddenly put on a hand.

"Boatman, my family and I are new here, can you take us around?"

Yan Ju instantly sobered up, moved a few steps back, and looked at the two people in front of him, a man in white with a good temperament, standing behind. It was a middle-aged man who slapped him, and the common island clothes in the sea were nothing special.

He frowned, "You guys were smuggled in?" Without the Shattered Star Creed, you can't buy and sell here, or you'll lose your head if you're discovered. ”

Hua Lei smiled: "Don't worry, this boy and I are just here to visit the trade market, and we don't want to buy goods on a large scale."

As for smuggling, when did there be such a saying in the Fengcang Sea Realm, everyone has trade and trade, and interaction is free, which has always been the case. ”

After speaking, he took out a handful of treasure money and stuffed it into Yan Ju's hand.

Yan Ju turned the weight upside down, it was an authentic Oriental Koujin, and such a large amount was enough for him to work on the ship for a year.

His face struggled, looked around, gritted his teeth and replied, "Since the big officials look up to the old man so much, I won't twist it."

Need to ask, where to go, just say. ”

Hua Lei patted the other party on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, boatman, we are not the kind of smugglers you think."

This time I came to Shattered Star Island, my son-in-law was interested, and he had to come and see it secretly.

By the way, there are some special treasures that I want to exchange.

All you have to do is show us the way and tell us where to go. ”

Yan Ju paused and said: "That's good, that's good, today's full moon night, the whole island celebrates and rests, everyone is concentrated in the place of shops and flower streets, I will take a few officials to take a look." ”

After saying that, he led the two of them through the black cabin and into a winding path.

After a short walk, the front convenience is brightly lit, with colorful lights and laughter. Even in the middle of the night, people come and go, and the stream is endless, which is more lively than the downtown area.

In particular, many young men and women, a few good words, accompanied by each other, and even some dark alleys, there were unbearable moans, which was really prosperous.

Hua Lei whispered secretly: "On the sea area, the islanders are as prosperous as fire, and life and death are not up to themselves. Men and women will take it home if they see it right, there is not so much red tape, but it is also happy. ”

Yan Ju smiled evilly: "It's a pity that above the broken star, women are more powerful, although this son is not bad looking, his temperament is a little weak." On the contrary, Your Excellency, if you go to the street willows at this moment, you may be able to have a spring supper for a while, and you don't need to spend money. ”

Li He smiled: "So, if you need to, you have to sacrifice the hue of the birch." ”

Hua Lei's face was embarrassed: "Childe is far better than me in terms of appearance and temperament, if it is the Oiran in the building, he will definitely be attracted to you, how can he fall in love with me."

This boatman was born at the bottom, has eyes but no beads, and knows something. ”

After speaking, he also glared at the other party viciously. Yan Ju has already been sprayed with blood in his heart, if it is about strength, he is not qualified to carry shoes for the island owner. Even if you don't talk about strength, it is obvious that the lord is humble and humble, and this person is too eyeless, no wonder he guards the cabin alone on the night of the full moon.

Hua Lei hurriedly diverted the topic: "Captain, I don't know which ones on Shattered Star Island can carry out auspicious transactions." ”

Hearing this, Yan Jumeng became cautious, although he knew that the two masters in front of him were not shallow, but when he came up, he asked Xiangrui, it must be a Taoist priest. You must know that the realm of Taoism is already respected by strength, and no one can offend Taoist priests, and there is even more ancient wisdom of survival.

He pondered for a while: "Money dwelling is a place where treasure money is exchanged, if there is enough treasure money, you can buy what you want, even if auspicious Rui has inventory."

Yanxiang Pavilion is not only the largest place on the island, but also a matchmaking business.

The Shattered Star Palace, the official shop run by the owner of the island, concentrates the most cherished resources of the entire island, and even the source of bad omens has been preserved. ”

After hearing this, Hua Lei said: "Take us to the money house first to see the quality." ”

The three trading places are definitely not all the trading places on Shattered Star Island, but those who can buy and sell auspicious Rui must have a good backer behind them.

The Shattered Star Hall is the main camp of the island owner, and it must be the most luxuriant, and it can be used as a finale. Yanxiang Pavilion is actually a brothel in Qinglou, after all, there is a great demand for people who make a living at sea, and it may be more of a place to spend a lot of money, which is not considered for the time being.

Yan Ju led the three of them through the streets and walked towards the most lush place.

There are thousands of broken islands all over the Broken Star Island, the waters are longitudinal and horizontal, and there are pontoon bridges everywhere.
