Seventy-five

After 15 minutes, the Taoist chief spread his hands and said with a depressed face: "Sure enough, it's lost, and the lone book is gone." ”

"Don't you know, just write it."

"No, boy. You don't understand that everything has its own laws, and if something disappears, it means that it is not in harmony with the way of heaven, and the sky does not tolerate it. I know, I remember, and it just shows that at that time, the Heavenly Dao could tolerate it, but I took it out at an inopportune time, how much burden is this? I can't afford it. You can only wait for fate, get the right time, place, people, and be born again. Alas, is it really so hard to preach now? The last sentence was the Taoist chief himself, but I still heard it.

"It's okay, Master Dao. Our thousands of years of Chinese heritage have come down, and there are other books to supplement one less, and you also said that modern people will also learn the essence of ancient culture, and we are not stupid or stupid. If it really develops to that day, maybe I'll make it up by myself. ”

"Makes sense, boy, you're right. The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more than is lost, maybe there will be a more perfect meridian system that day. I'm blinded here, haha. ”

"Then the next step in cultivation?"

"Get on the train and tell you, I'll be there soon." , the Taoist seemed to be happy again, and pulled me out of the car.

At the gate of the ticket gate in the train station, Chen Gang and the others were waiting for us. Everyone talked and laughed and took their ID cards to go through the formalities, only the evil corpse was troublesome. He is a passport or a foreign passport, so he can't go through the automatic ticket system, and he has to find a conductor to take him in, it seems that it is prescient that the good corpse will not come. As for Simon, who can stop him in the night.

There are really not many people on the high-speed rail, it is estimated that it is because of the reason that the train departs at night and arrives at night, who doesn't want to sleep well if there is no urgency?

As soon as I sat down, I began to trouble the Taoist again: "That cultivation thing you just talked about?" Naturally, I was impatient, and I was anxious about my own affairs.

"Tell me first, are there any special places or bottlenecks in your cultivation process?" , the Taoist chief asked me rhetorically first.

"There's a place, didn't we refine magic weapons last time, and then we thought about this so-called mind, what is the time? Who's talking when I'm thinking about things in my head? Is it me? I thought about it, the bottleneck is not there for the time being, but there are still many puzzles.

"Huh? Boy, how did you come up with that? ”

"I suddenly thought of it when I was manipulating Liyang Zhu with my mind."

"Your cultivation path is a little different from others. It is difficult for others to behead three corpses, you will behead them as soon as you come up, and most people will only consider the problem of mind and voice when they have cultivated to a relatively high level, you start to pay attention now, I really don't know if you are a genius or a fool. The Taoist squinted at me and smiled.

"I can understand genius, why do you say I'm stupid?" Is this praising me or scolding me?

"Many things, the more you know, the easier it is to be misled, and when you don't know how to distinguish between truth and falsehood, the fake becomes true."

"Didn't you say I should think more and think more?"

"Alas, too. Everyone has their own fate, and what I'm telling you is my opinion and what I've verified. You don't have to listen to all the beliefs, you can treat yourself as an ancient qi practitioner, as if you had never moved forward before, and follow your own path, so that the future will be more ambitious. The Taoist suddenly talked about the ancients, which surprised me, after all, it was all unrecorded.

"Did the ancient qi refiners all explore it themselves? So what do these lineages mean now, including the sect you founded? I asked, puzzled.

"In ancient times, cultivators were not called cultivators, but became qi refiners. Some of them comprehend the Great Dao in this heaven and earth, and some of them extract the spiritual energy from nature for their own use, at that time there is no good or evil, there is no right or wrong, as long as they can develop their own potential and can comprehend the Great Dao, it is right. Later, slowly, some people accused others of being wrong or right, maybe because of competition for resources, maybe because of poor comprehension of the Heavenly Dao, and there were disputes. Later, with the fighting, the death and injury of some people, their cultivation methods were lost. But no matter who it is, as long as it is an ancient qi refiner, there must be something unique about it, do you know why? The Taoist turned his head to look at me.

"Because... Are they all enlightened on their own? I guessed it.

"That's right, boy, I didn't misread you. Indeed, people at that time did not have any teachers, so they did not confine their understanding of the Great Dao to a certain sect or a certain scripture. And at that time, most of them were directly perceived from nature, and if you have a high level of understanding, you will understand more. There is no such thing as a linguistic problem. ”

"So you mean, let me be like the ancients, and feel from nature for myself?"

"Yes and no. What has been summed up, you can see it, you can experience it, but you can't believe it all and believe it. You have to see more, feel more, understand more, think more, some paths are only suitable for yourself, don't be led astray by people who are higher than you, his way may not be suitable for you, understand? ”

"I see, can you tell me what's going on in my mind? I'd like to hear what those who came before me think. ”

"The mind is a very complex thing, let's call it a thing. I didn't take the path of beheading the three corpses to become enlightened, I followed the pure yang body cultivation, accumulating merits, and eliminating karmic retribution, so my soul has always been complete. I think that the mind is our soul, that is, the heavenly soul, the earth soul, and the human soul, and it is very likely that the human soul is talking to itself. The so-called manipulation of the mind is also the manipulation of the soul. ”

"What about the Heavenly Soul and the Earth Soul?" , I remembered that Taiyi Tianzun said that my soul was not complete, so it was best to ask more.

"The heavenly soul is good, the earth soul is evil, the heavenly soul will return to heaven to report goodness after death, and the soul of the earth soul will return to the earth to report evil after death, which is the burden of people's life, that is, karma. Mortal heavenly souls and earth souls cannot cultivate on their own, that is to say, how many good and bad things they have done, they will write them down, and they will report them later. But the human soul is different, and the human soul should actually be enshrined in the ancestral hall after death, which is why we have family cemeteries and ancestral halls after the death of the Central Plains. And as far as I know, not only the people of the Central Plains, but also many ancient civilizations have family tombs. It's just that we Central Plains people understand it more thoroughly and divide the soul more clearly, but the unity of other cultures is called the soul. Jue Xingdao is really erudite, and it seems that it is indeed beneficial to live for a thousand more years.
