Leaving Abbot Xie Xin's room, Zheng Shu happened to meet Xiao Zizai who was staying under a tree with his hands around on the way back to his room.

"Brother Xiao, why are you here alone?"

"I don't feel comfortable in that kind of place, and I like the process of life passing, not the life that has died." Xiao Zizi lifted his glasses expressionlessly.

"That's ......"

Zheng Shu didn't know what to say after saying this, and there was silence between the two for a while.

After a long time, Zheng Shu spoke again.

"Let's talk?"

"Okay."

The two came to Zheng Shu's room, sat cross-legged on the futon, and glanced at each other.

"Do you eat fruit?" Zheng Shu took a fruit out of thin air from the fruit tree in the corner of his room and handed it to Xiao Zizai.

Xiao Zizi nodded silently, but did not take the fruit in Zheng Shu's hand, but stared at Zheng Shu's hand.

"Where did you learn the dragon claw hand and the flower finger, and the heat is very deep?"

"Of course, I learned it when I saw Brother Xiao and you used it." Zheng Shu raised his hand to take another fruit, touched it with his hand a little and gnawed it.

"Did you learn it just by looking at it......" Even if he was as strong as Xiao Zizi, he was silenced by Zheng Shu's words.

He didn't think Zheng Shu was lying to himself, judging from the information investigated by the company, all the other party's itineraries were almost transparent, and he didn't have time to go to Shaolin Temple to steal school at all.

The only opportunity to come into contact with these two stunts was probably when I met myself in Biyou Village.

If someone else said that he could learn the Shaolin Seventy-two stunts at a glance, Xiao Zizi would definitely be willing to help that person cut off his mouth, but the Zheng Shu he was facing now was a geek who independently developed the resurrection ritual.

Xiao Zizai even felt that only if Zheng Shu had such talent could it be possible to develop such a technology.

"You're much stronger than me in terms of cultivation talent."

"Is there one? I don't think I'm as strong as you think, but when I was practicing recently, I felt distraught and distracted, and when I was cultivating, my anger was getting bigger and bigger, and I couldn't suppress it. ”

This is also why Zheng Shu was only hindered on the road before, but suddenly burst out so angry.

Because unconsciously, he has accumulated considerable anger in his practice.

"Oh?"

After Xiao Zizi looked Zheng Shu up and down, a smile that was difficult to describe suddenly appeared on his face.

"I see, I probably know what your reason is, I have also gone through this stage, or until now, I am still going through this stage."

"Please advise!" Zheng Shu straightened his chest and made a gesture of deferential listening.

"Actually, there is nothing special to advise, if you are willing to listen to my nagging, it is fine."

Under Xiao Zizi's slow narration, Zheng Shu also probably understood his problem.

In the past, practitioners compared the heart and lungs to monkeys, Si Xinzhi, and Yang.

The liver and kidneys are compared to pigs, with seven emotions and six desires, which belong to yin.

The five elements of the spleen and stomach belong to the earth, and in order to reconcile the body of yin and yang, it is called "sand monk".

When a normal cultivator reaches this stage, he has also reached the realm where he needs to pay attention to his own primordial spirit.

As a cultivator, it is natural to avoid "believing in the horse" as much as possible, because the heart ape is the best at controlling the "primordial spirit", or "the horse"

Therefore, in this realm, practitioners generally choose to polish the heart ape, which is the so-called "heart ape and horse".

Under normal circumstances, cultivators in this realm only need to strengthen their minds, strengthen their physique, and continue to cultivate unhurriedly, whether they are mainly cultivating by the will or by cultivating the body, they can eventually overcome this bottleneck.

"But we're not the same." Xiao Zizi looked at his palm, as if he was reminiscing about the feelings of the person he had just killed.

"People like us didn't have a heart ape problem from the beginning. After all, there are only two outcomes for patients like us, one is to be completely indulgent, and the other is to suppress instinct as much as possible, as you and I do. But either of these two choices, people like us will be very 'firm' in their minds. ”

Xiao Zizi paused, and Zheng Shu couldn't help laughing:

"That's right, after all, for people like us, what is needed is nothing more than to find ways to satisfy their desires, or to find ways to restrain their desires, and there is no extra energy to think about more things."

Speaking of which, Zheng Shu has already understood what his current problem is.

The so-called "heart ape", to put it bluntly, is actually because cultivation is too difficult and depressing, so cultivators who have reached this realm will be seduced by other desires and temptations and lose their will to continue to forge ahead.

At this level, the strength of the cultivator is already strong enough to obtain a high enough status among the crowd, so they will be able to come into contact with more temptations.

For example, when you go out, you are respected as a master or a real person, and you can get wealth that ordinary people can't get in their lifetime, and those who are high up to ordinary people will lower their posture and salute respectfully when they see them.

In addition to these superficial temptations, there are countless other hidden temptations, which are really difficult to resist for cultivators who have been training themselves hard since childhood.

At this time, they need to polish their hearts and strengthen their will to practice.

If you pass this hurdle, you can make your cultivation go further, but if you can't get through, you can only become a "master" in the ordinary population and enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth.

That's right, even if you can't get through this hurdle, with the strength of a cultivator, you can completely spend a life of glory and wealth.

This is the biggest trap and obstacle in honing the heart ape, and cultivation is the path of rapid progress, and if you don't advance, you will retreat, and some people in some countries will even call this path "the path of pain".

Abandon the low-hanging fruit and wealth and go on with the masochistic life, and those who can do this can be called freaks even among the aliens.

"In this respect, neuropathy like ours still has an advantage, after all, we have a strong enough goal from the very beginning." A dangerous smile appeared on Xiao Zizi's face.

"Hah! That's right! Zheng Shu smiled dumbly.

Just like the all-sex "white owl" Liang Ting who appeared in the original book, this guy is an absolute villain, murdering and arson, raping and plundering, and doing all kinds of evil, but at the same time, he is also a great master with two sects of organs and talismans.

And the main reason why such a wicked person can study his strength assiduously is because he has a clear "goal" from the beginning.

In the beginning, his goal was to find the "desire" he wanted, and this firm will even prompted him to keep practicing together, and eventually became a great master.

And after finding what he wants, this wicked person who has taken countless lives can even abandon his own life for this.

"So from the very beginning, what we need to pay attention to is not the monkey, but the 'pig' who has been obscure, which has caused us great trouble!"

The so-called pig refers to the water of the main liver and kidney, and this thing usually specializes in seven emotions and six desires.

"Even if it is an ordinary cultivator, it will not choose to be in charge of leading the horse, whether the horse is handed over to the heart ape to hold the reins or to the sand monk to hold the reins, but once the pig representing the seven emotions and six desires is led to the horse reins, then it means that the madness is lost."

"Wait! I have a question. Hearing this, Zheng Shu suddenly interrupted Xiao Zizai, "I have observed through the inner vision method of this sect, and it seems that there is no demon in my heart?" ”

"Is it the inner vision of the whole line? It's really good, it's a good way to resist the inner demons like the warlock's interior, and it can turn the originally invisible and intangible inner demons into a concrete image, allowing you to fight in the mental space. ”

Xiao Zizi helped his glasses, and the light flashing on the glasses seemed to be laughing at Zheng Shu's innocence.

"But that's ordinary people, and for us patients, this kind of thing is useless at all! The so-called inner demons are originally a part of themselves, and even if they are manifested through these two methods, they are essentially quarrels between the left hand and the right hand.

And for people like us...... Let's put it this way, if we really re-manifest another self through these two methods, then we are the one who has the demons in our hearts! ”

"I probably understand, it seems that I can only use stupid methods." Zheng Shu looked at the beam on the top and sighed helplessly.

"Stupid methods also have the benefits of stupid methods, although the contemplation, concentration, and meditation methods handed down by our ancestors are troublesome and painful to cultivate, and it is difficult to improve, and there is no great effect on diligence, but it is indeed useful enough in controlling the seven emotions and six desires."

Xiao Zizi raised his finger and pointed at himself, and his face, which had been expressionless, showed a rare look of pride.

"Back then, my master thought that I wouldn't be able to last long, but relying on the observation method that Lao Dou found for me and the moderate venting, I have survived until now."

Looking at the thoughtful Zheng Shu, Xiao Zizi stood up from the futon, tidied up his clothes, and prepared to leave here.

"For people like us, entangled with demons for a lifetime is an inevitable future, if you find it too difficult, then it's better to give up as soon as possible."

"Give up? Forget it, I don't like such cowardly statements. And Brother Xiao, didn't you say it? Our ancestors have already prepared a solution for us! Zheng Shu came back to his senses and looked at the back of Xiao Zizi, who was about to leave.

"Oh? That's great, because it's good for me to have a patient who can talk to me about my condition once in a while. ”

Xiao Zizi smiled, opened the door and left here, while Zheng Shu also stood up and walked towards the Daozang Hall after thinking for a while.

Now that he already knows his own problems and has a relatively clear solution, Zheng Shu naturally will not hesitate too much.

Even if this method is quite complicated and difficult to use, Zheng Shu does not lack time anyway, so he doesn't mind spending more time solving his own problems.

……

……

Zheng Shu didn't do much after finding a contemplation method in the Baiyun Temple, and in the next few days, he, like the other disciples of the Baiyun Temple, quietly held various rituals for the funeral of Elder Fang Dongtian.

A week later, Fang Dongtian's funeral was successfully concluded, and the guests who came to participate in the condolences also left one after another.

Zheng Shu said hello to his master and master, and then followed an employee of the Dark Castle to leave here and return to the Dark Castle.

"Daochang Zheng, you're finally back, and Dong Zhao has been waiting for you."

As soon as he got out of the car, Director Wang greeted him and brought such news to Zheng Shu.

"Huh? Is there anything Chairman Zhao looking for me? ”

"This ...... He didn't tell us about it, but Lao Liao seems to be there with him, maybe just to thank you. ”

Steward Wang scratched his head, and he didn't look very clear.

"Liao Zhong? Released so soon? I thought that Zhao Dong was going to teach him a hard lesson. ”

"Haha, Chen Duo's matter, in fact, if you don't look at the fact that Lao Liao was killed, it is generally more risky, but it is not serious enough to lock Lao Liao in. Of course, this punishment is also quite serious, and this guy is estimated to be the person in charge of the company for a while now, so he can only fight in the dark fort. ”

Although Steward Wang's expression was quite gloating, Zheng Shu felt sincere happiness from his mental fluctuations, and as a colleague who had worked with Liao Zhong for many years, he was also extremely surprised by Liao Zhong's resurrection.

Even secretly, he sighed more than once, fortunately, he perfectly completed the task assigned to him by his superiors to completely assist Zheng Shu.

If Zheng Shu's deduction of the resurrection circle was affected by personal inference, then he would really regret his death.

"Okay, Dong Zhao is in the office now, then I'll go over first."

Zheng Shu waved his hand, ignoring Steward Wang, who was making a fool of himself, and walked towards the office very skillfully.

Zheng Shu has an intuition that this time Zhao Fangxu is looking for himself, I am afraid that he will be able to reveal why he trusts and supports him so much.

When you come to the office, the first thing that catches your eye is the plaque above that reads "No foul language during working hours".

When Zheng Shu arrived, Zhao Fangxu was sitting in the main seat of the office, scolding Liao Zhong below so much that he couldn't raise his head.

In fact, Zheng Shu heard this scolding when he was far away, and it was not until he symbolically knocked on the door that the sound in the office stopped.

"Ahem, please come in."

"Zhao Dong, do you have something to do with me?"

Looking at Zheng Shu who pushed the door in, even the high-ranking Zhao Fangxu immediately stood up from his seat and welcomed Zheng Shu in with a smile on his face.

"Come on, come on, Chief Zheng Xiaodao, sit, sit first. Why are you stunned? Why don't you hurry up and make tea! Turning his head and yelling at Liao Zhong who was standing next to him, Zhao Fangxu turned his head again, and resurfaced with that smiling face.

"Dong Zhao, you don't have to be so polite, I have a good relationship with Zhang Chulan, and he also told me that you are a trustworthy elder. So don't worry, since I said that I am willing to teach you, then I will definitely not change the hexagram. ”

Zheng Shu watched a person of Zhao Fangxu's age "licking" himself after being busy, and he was also a little uncomfortable, so he got straight to the point very simply.

He had already talked to Zhao Fangxu before, and after his resurrection circle was confirmed to be effective, he could hand over the circle to the company, and even guide the learners sent by the company one-on-one.

The premise, of course, is that the company pays him enough "knowledge" as a reward.

This is the third purpose of Zheng Shu's plan this time: to gain enough knowledge through this magic circle.

Anyway, for Zheng Shu, the value of this magic circle is actually just that, although it represents his own knowledge summary, but it only represents a summary of knowledge.

If he wants to continue to enhance himself, then he needs to gain more knowledge.

As a company that is inextricably linked to the country, Zheng Shu believes that this harvest will make him satisfied.

"Zheng Xiaodao is really polite, don't worry, of course I believe you. The first batch of materials has already been shipped here, and although it will take a little time, you will definitely be satisfied. ”

Zhao Fangxu, who sat back in the main seat of the office, glanced at Liao Zhong who was leaving, hesitated for a moment, and asked:

"The little Taoist said that he has a good relationship with Zhang Chulan, so I don't know if you are willing to expose your resurrection circle this time, is it for ......"

Although Zhao Fangxu didn't say it explicitly, Zheng Shu had already understood, he nodded and admitted Zhao Fangxu's thoughts.

"Part of the reason for exposing this resurrection circle is to remove the pressure on Zhang Chulan's body a little, after all, this guy is too weak."

This is the fourth purpose of Zheng Shu's plan this time: to help Zhang Chulan, or Feng Baobao, share the pressure.

Of course, this purpose is not too clear, and it can only be regarded as a convenient one.

"Feng Baobao has a friend like you, it can be regarded as lucky, and Lao Xu should be able to look at it."

Zhao Fangxu sighed with emotion, leaning back on the chair, looking a lot more relaxed.

"It's over, by the way, Dong Zhao, do you have something to do with me this time?"

"Oh yes, that's right." Zhao Fangxu sat up straight, his expression was quite serious, "We may have helped you find your family." ”

"Oh...... Yes? What the hell?! ”
