Looking back at Chen Jiugong, during this period of time, Chen Jiugong has made progress in practicing here in Xu He, but it has only been a year, and cultivation is a matter of a hundred years and a thousand years, and Xu He is not in a hurry.

"Master, what is the Tao?" Chen Jiugong followed behind Xu He and suddenly asked.

"Dao..."Xu He looked up at the sky: "From the first day of cultivation, you should be enlightened." Why did you suddenly ask? ”

Chen Jiugong was a little embarrassed and said, "The disciple is ashamed, although he has been enlightening since the beginning of his cultivation. But to this day, the disciples have not yet understood the essence of the Tao. ”

"It is very difficult to understand the essence of the Tao."

徐河 says:

"Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things. If you really want to understand this way, it is not a day's work. ”

"The teacher just happened to know how to tell you this way, so listen well."

Chen Jiugong lifted his heart, his expression was focused, waiting for Xu He to solve his doubts.

"The Tao is the way, the very way; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth, famous, the mother of all things.

Therefore, there is often no desire, to see its wonder, and there is often desire, to observe its subtlety. These two are the same and have different names, the same name is the mystery, the mystery is mysterious, and the door of all wonders. ”

The first half of this sentence is really a description of the Tao. In the second half of the sentence, Fang explains the mystery of the Tao. ”

After Xu He finished speaking, he looked at Chen Jiugong.

"Dao Ke Dao, very Dao ......"

Chen Jiugong muttered these words that Xu He said to him:

"Therefore, there is often no desire, to see its wonder, and there is often desire, to observe its ......"

Chen Jiugong's forehead was oozing with sweat, his eyes were closed, his brows were furrowed, and he was trying his best to deduce these two sentences in his divine sense.

'In enlightenment? Xu He wondered in his heart: 'Is this what enlightenment should look like?' When I preached to them before, it was obviously not like this. ’

It seems that the last time I preached to Chen Jiugong Yao Shaosi, just Xu He said it, and the two began to break through, and there was no such link at all.

Seeing that Chen Jiugong would not be able to wake up from enlightenment for a while, Xu He simply sat cross-legged and closed his eyes and waited quietly.

The sun went down, and it went down again.

Chen Jiugong stood in place, his brows sometimes furrowed, sometimes stretched, sweat soaked through his clothes, and then dried by the wind. Even Yao Shaosi sometimes came over and looked at Chen Jiugong curiously, and he didn't dare to disturb the master who was closing his eyes, so he could only look at it, and did not act rashly.

Three days passed. Chen Jiugong lost a lot of weight, but he suddenly opened his eyes, and there was more enlightenment in his eyes, and the previous confusion completely disappeared.

"Disciple, thank you Master for solving your doubts!" Chen Jiugong said excitedly.

Xu He opened his eyes and asked the doubts in his heart: "What do you think is the difference between preaching to you for the teacher this time and the Xuanmen Dafa mantra taught to you last time?" ”

Chen Jiugong thought carefully, and then said:

"The last Xuanmen Dafa mantra was like an initiation, and there was no need for the disciple to comprehend, all the Dao rhymes naturally appeared in the disciple's heart, and it was ...... It seems to have also increased the disciple's understanding of what the master said a lot. ”

"This time, it was the master who solved the doubts, and the disciples realized. It's like...... Same as in previous years. It's just that what the master said this time is really profound. If it weren't for the foundation of the last sermon, the disciples would probably find it difficult to understand. ”

"Hmm...," Xu He nodded.

It seems that the thing of enlightenment depends on chance and luck, and when the opportunity comes, it can have good results without enlightenment. If you don't have the chance, then you have to rely on understanding.

However, Xu He still wanted to confirm whether it was because Chen Jiugong's understanding was too poor.

"Child." Xu He called.

"Sir." The gold and silver boy immediately came to Xu He.

"Call your Uncle Lu Jian and come to this mountain to see the poor road." Xu He said.

"Cats." At the foot of the mountain, Lu Quanpan sat in the peach garden, holding a knife technique, opened his eyes from his cultivation, and said a little depressedly: "I don't think Master will teach me anything." ”

"Isn't this knife technique bad?" The lynx spirit asked, "If it's not good, you can borrow it from me, and I promise not to tell anyone else!" ”

Lu Jian shook his head: "I'm not talking about this, I'm saying that I can't learn anything here." ”

"Isn't this sword technique new to you?" The lynx glanced at Lu Jian and complained in his heart: "It's really hypocritical! ’

However, the lynx spirit did not dare to say this.

"You still don't understand me." Lu Jian said.

Seeing the yellow cat face of the lynx spirit, he suddenly squeezed out a treacherous smile: "It's better to be the boss of Lu Press, you secretly let me out, and I will go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire to find a teacher for you?" ”

Looking at the treacherous smile of the lynx spirit, Lu Jian said: "With your mind, you are eight hundred times worse than my two senior brothers, can you find a famous teacher?" ”

"You look down on people!" Lynx Jing said: "Am I not much better than that Yao Shaosi?" ”

"Uncle Lu Press." The gold and silver boy came to Lu Press: "Shizun told you to meet him." ”

"Master called me!?" Lu Jian was shocked: "The nephew is not joking? ”

The gold and silver boy shook his head: "Shizun personally asked me to call you over, to go up the mountain." ”

"Good, good!" Lu Jian hurriedly stood up and tidied up his clothes: "I'll go up now." ”

Mountains. Lu Jian looked at the Taoist temple that he hadn't set foot on for almost two years, and he was infinitely emotional, but he was also very nervous.

He didn't know what the master called him.

At this time, Xu He was already waiting for him in the main hall, and when he came to the main hall, Lu Jian said, "The disciple asks to see the master." ”

"Come in."

Lu Jian slowly pushed open the door and saw Xu He kneeling at the table and drinking tea.

"The disciple has seen the master!" Lu Jian said excitedly in his heart.

"Sit." With a kind face, Xu He motioned for Lu Jian to sit in front of the table.

It's just that I don't know why, Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi on the side looked dazed.

Is it so powerful to convince people with virtue?

waved his hand and motioned for Chen Jiugong and the others to leave temporarily.

Lu Jian knelt down in front of Xu He and respectfully bowed his hand: "Thank you, Master." ”

"During this period of time, the teacher only asked you to take care of the peach orchard, watering and sweeping the floor all day long, but he didn't teach you anything." Xu He asked, "Do you have any blame in your heart for being a teacher?" ”

"Disciple... Can't. ”

Lu Jian felt a pang in his heart and said:

"The teacher teaches the disciples, which is the favor of the master and the disciples. At the end of the day, a master never owes anything to his disciples, and it is a favor to teach, and it is not wrong not to teach...... What's more, the disciple transforms, and the master is kind to the disciple. How dare a disciple complain? ”

However, he saw Xu He shaking his head: "Master, preach and teach to solve doubts." Since I accepted you, I should teach you as a teacher, otherwise it will delay your cultivation. Isn't it in vain to be a teacher? ”

"It's just that you and I have a certain fate." Xu He said: "One day, when you have the ability to calculate the number of days, you should know." As a teacher, in the number of days, it should be your life. ”

"What?!" Lu Jian looked shocked.
