Grasping the key to sanctification does not guarantee sanctification. Zhang Cundao understands this very well, just like getting a girl's fog chat communication number, it may not be able to develop into a girlfriend.

There was nothing else in the house but that. It's a very simple cottage. But at this time, the lotus flower outside suddenly shouted: "Destined person, have you finished reading it?" ”

Zhang Cundao was about to speak, but Lianhua didn't wait for him to answer, but continued: "The master said that if you want to leave here, you need to understand the way to get out of here, otherwise you will be trapped here for the rest of your life!" ”

Zhang Cundao was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly found that this small island had changed. A force had sealed the island so that he couldn't feel the outside world at all.

Zhang Cundao was slightly stunned, he tried to give full play to the ubiquitous characteristics of the Trapped Immortal Sword. It's a pity that this place seems to be isolated from heaven and earth, and his Trapped Immortal Sword can appear here, but he can't feel the Trapped Immortal Sword from the outside world.

After all, it is a super power to comprehend the way of a saint, and it is natural to have such means.

Zhang Cundao lowered his head and thought about it, and then asked, "What did the predecessors leave for me to understand?" You can't let me go out of the realm of saints before I leave. ”

Lotus smiled and said, "I don't know, you can comprehend it yourself......

Zhang Cundao scratched his head, he looked at Feng Wu beside him, and comforted her: "Don't worry, I'll find a way to get out." ”

Feng Wu smiled at him and said, "I'm not in a hurry, Brother Zhang." ”

Zhang Cundao walked around this small island and thought carefully. He looked at the sky above him, at the sea beside him, and at the ground beneath his feet. In fact, since reading the Tai Chi Sutra, he has always had a lot of thoughts in his head.

These thoughts are like messy thoughts, constantly born and constantly annihilated. This is the realization of too much, which makes him at a loss.

He needed to calm down.

After walking around, he returned to the hut, then sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to close his eyes and meditate.

This should be the 'casual test' left by Lianxi's predecessors, as long as you can get something, you can leave here. Otherwise, the predecessors left his thoughts and wisdom, but gave it to a person who did not know how to use it, wouldn't it be in vain to blind his painstaking efforts.

Zhang Cundao slowly calmed down and began to catch the thoughts that kept rising in his mind.

The first three paragraphs of the "Tai Chi Sutra" are all circulated in the outside world, or in other words, they are circulated in the outside world with some kind of understanding. The last passage did not circulate, which is presumably deliberate on the part of the saints. Just like when some masters in the real world teach their skills, they may pass on ninety percent of their skills to their apprentices, but the last one, which is the most critical one, will not be passed on early. Usually until he is about to die, he will choose an apprentice to teach him.

This inheritance method ensures the absolute authority and absolute strength of the master. No matter how well your apprentice learns, he will not be able to reach the master's level because of the master's hand. Therefore, if the apprentices want to learn the final craft, they need to obey the master honestly. If you don't want to do this, then rely on your own comprehension and comprehend the final craft, and then you will be able to become a teacher.

The saints probably did the same, they didn't pass on this last passage in order to get the saint in place. If others can comprehend the way of the saints themselves, then they welcome such amazing talents.

If no one can comprehend the way of the saint on their own, then they can only wait for their arrangement to compete for the position of the saint.

Today's competition for the position of a saint is estimated to be like this.

In the last paragraph, 'Therefore the saint is in harmony with heaven and earth, the sun and the moon are in harmony, the four seasons are in order, and the ghosts and gods are in harmony with their good fortune and evil. There is also the way to establish the heavens, which is called yin and yang. The way of standing on the ground is said to be soft and rigid. The way of establishing a person is benevolence and righteousness. Add the last sentence 'The original is the opposite, so we know the theory of life and death.' ’

The meaning of these words is that the sage rules the heavens and the earth, based on the five elements of yin and yang, whether rigid or soft, benevolent or righteous, all of which are two sides of yin and yang, and the five elements change. Combined with the Taiji diagram left by Mr. Lianxi, it can be seen from the analysis of the five elements of yin and yang. There should be nine of these saints.

There are seven positions in the yin and yang and the five elements. Finally, the 'Theory of Life and Death' are the last two positions, representing 'life' and 'death'.

This realization is also in line with the sayings of 'heaven and earth', 'sun and moon', 'four hours' and 'ghosts'. 'Heaven and Earth' represent two saints, 'Sun and Moon' represent two saints, and 'Four Hours' represent spring, summer, autumn and winter, which are the four saints. And the last 'ghost' is a saint. Demons and gods are actually two sides of the same coin. In ancient times, there was no distinction between ghosts and gods, people had no way to practice, and gods and ghosts were both nothing, and it was normal to be confused by them.

Moreover, the division of 'heaven and earth', 'sun and moon', 'four hours' and 'ghosts and gods' also represents the seat of this saint. Among the saints, 'heaven and earth' is the highest, followed by 'sun and moon', then 'four hours', and finally 'ghosts and gods'.

Today's seven saints, the two first to become sanctified, humans and demons, are all named after 'heaven'. One is through the sky, and the other is Qitian. There are also two saints named after 'earth'. One thoroughly, one regretfully. And the Spiritual Virgin is estimated to be 'born' or to represent the spring in the 'four seasons'......

Each seat of the saint has meaning and is in accordance with the interpretation of the scriptures.

If this is the case, then it is very likely that the new saint represents the seat of 'ghosts' or 'deaths'. Thinking about it this way, the hope of the Yama Demon Lord is great......

Zhang Cundao thought about it for a while, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. Because there are still two holy seats left, what if this time it is not the seat that represents 'ghost' or 'death', but something else?

Zhang Cundao shook his head, he couldn't say anything about the saint, all this was his assumption. But nine holy seats, this should be a certainty. It will never exceed that number.

He has no hope for this battle for the holy throne, and his strength and realm can't keep up. But according to his understanding, he still has a chance to compete for the last holy seat.

The saints will release a holy seat after a long, long time, and the current seven saints are not sanctified together, but one at regular intervals. The last to be sanctified was the Sage Saint, who was the founder of a human dynasty for 10,000 years.

If the saint is elected this time, then the position of the last saint should be released after 10,000 years. When the nine saints are ready, then the position of the saint will be closed forever, and it will be impossible for all living beings in the world to look at the holy position, and the end of their cultivation can only be the quasi-saint realm.

Thinking of this, a sentence suddenly appeared in Zhang Cundao's mind, 'The saint is immortal, and the avenue is not endless.' In order to maintain his status as a 'saint', the saint set nine ranks, cutting off the opportunity for all beings in the world to ascend to the top of the 'saint'. They are like thieves, stealing the authority of the Great Dao, maintaining their own interests and suppressing the interests of all non-'saints'.

Is this kind of 'saint' the 'saint' that Mr. Lianxi expects?

Judging from all indications, Mr. Lianxi, who has comprehended the "Tai Chi Sutra", is the most qualified to ascend to the holy throne, which is the way he sorted out. But the real situation is that among the seven saints, none of them is named Mr. Lianxi. If there is, even if Zhang Cundao is lonely and unheard, he should understand which one it is.

Looking at it now, after Mr. Lianxi comprehended the way of the sage, he did not go to preach, but did not know where to go. Then those who received this scripture preached the saints in turn, and formed the present pattern.

If this is really the case, then this Mr. Lianxi is really as written in his "Ai Lian Said", he is a noble gentleman, not arrogant, not impatient, not branching.

The thoughts in my head went over again, but they were all ideas about the way of the saints, and they were not useful understandings. But after this general idea of 'gossip' ended, my mind began to calm down and focus, and I began to think about something else.

Zhang Cundao's eyes looked at the lotus flower outside, and suddenly, he seemed to think of something.

The calyx of this lotus flower is black, but the petals are like fire. In the five elements of yin and yang, black represents water and red represents fire. Fire and water are like yin and yang, these are two opposing forces, and they are also mutually reinforcing in the five elements.

So why does this flower grow like this?

There are thousands of flowers in the world, and it is not surprising that they look strange. But when Zhang Cundao saw this lotus, he thought of the five elements of yin and yang in the scriptures.

'Tai Chi moves and generates yang, moving poles and stillness, static and generating yin, and cathode removing. One movement and one stillness, each other is its root. This is an exposition of the principle of the Yin and Yang cycle of Tai Chi. And on this lotus, the water pole gives fire, and the fire pole gives birth to water, and water and fire are mutually beneficial, and they are also their roots of each other.

Zhang Cundao looked at the lotus carefully, he thought about it, and suddenly had a bold idea.

This lotus flower is not born like this. The power of fire and water is added to the acquired world. Water and fire maintain the power of life in the cycle of movement, which makes this lotus flower look like this.

In "Love Lotus Said", the lotus flower comes out of the mud but is not stained, and the water is clear and rippling but not demonic. It is a holy plant. So why did Mr. Lianxi, who admires the holiness of the lotus, plant a lotus plant that works together with fire and water? This is clearly not to his liking.

If something is clearly problematic, then that thing is a problem. To solve this problem, it may be the exam question that Mr. Lian Xi gave Zhang Cundao.

Zhang Cundao thought about it carefully, and when she first saw this lotus, she was constantly exuding a chaotic aura outward. Later, he also discovered that the chaotic aura of this lotus flower was actually the thoughts she emanated. Her thoughts are very many and miscellaneous, and they have reached a very high point. Other beings passively accept these thoughts, and they will naturally be dry-burned, and then they will fall into chaos.

So what was it that caused so many of Lotus's thoughts? This is obviously not the idea that a 'quiet and holy' lotus flower can have. And if the processors (brains) of other creatures will be dry-burned, then won't this lotus flower? It doesn't look like this lotus is smart, and this information processing function shouldn't be that strong.

Zhang Cundao thought for a while, and began to have an idea in his mind. So he went to Lotus's side and said to Lotus, "Can I ask you for half a petal?" ”

Before this lotus flower could respond, Zhang Cundao made the first move and directly cut off a small petal of her with the Trapping Immortal Sword.

Lotus called out 'ah', and there was some dissatisfaction in her tone. But Zhang Cundao didn't care about this, but stared at her wounds tightly.

In just a split second, her severed petals grew and became intact. From the perspective of ordinary people, this also means that the vitality of the lotus flower is extremely strong and the self-healing ability is excellent.

But under Zhang Cundao's divine observation, he found some clues.

This is not extremely self-healing. Rather, the time of the lotus flower was accelerated. The petals that should have grown in a month or two were accelerated by time, and she grew in just an instant. Time acceleration is like a fast-playing video, which can be seen if you look closely.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Cundao sat next to Lotus, and a sentence suddenly came to his mind.

'The four seasons are in order', which means 'the rotation of the four seasons changes regularly', which reflects the ability of the sages to grasp the heavens and the earth and formulate the rotation of the four seasons.

But when I think about it, these 'four hours' don't refer to time. The rotation of the four seasons is a change in time. If you think more about the order of the four times, it is not 'making rules for the flow of time'.

If time can be ruled, then it shouldn't be a problem to make time flow faster.

Zhang Cundao can't control the speed of time flow, but it doesn't mean that Mr. Lianxi can't do it. If Mr. Lian Xi sets this lotus flower ...... No, it wasn't Mr. Lianxi who set the speed of time for this lotus......

A thought suddenly flashed through Zhang Cundao's mind.

In an audit course at the university, a professor in the Department of Physics once said that there is no such thing as "time" in the world. The 'time' we perceive is only because we see the state of affairs changing. When we see the flowers blooming, we know it's spring, when we see the wheat ripe, we know it's summer, and when we see the fallen leaves, we know it's autumn.

The changes in spring, summer, autumn and winter are realized by observing all this. We look at ourselves, from a babbling child to a sturdy and tall young man, from a head full of green silk to a head full of white hair, and then we come to the realization that 'the deceased is like a husband, reluctant to give up day and night.' ’

Time, inherently, is a meaningless thing, and only the observation of change gives it meaning. If everything doesn't move and change, then time will be meaningless and impossible to observe.

In other words, if everything is changing faster, can we 'observe' that time is accelerating?

'Tai Chi moves and generates yang...... Movement and stillness, life and life. Mr. Lian Xi didn't exert any magical powers about time on the lotus, he just accelerated the movement of water and fire on the lotus......

The movement of water and fire is accelerated, so that the 'time' on the lotus body also becomes faster. The 'speed of time' that Lotus feels is different from the real 'speed of time' in the outside world. Her time is faster, that's why she has so many and so complex thoughts. Because these thoughts are what she has 'accumulated for a long time'.

There is only one chapter today.
