Chapter 51: Do What He Does

"Ascend to the Divine Ladder...... Speaking of which, the poor Dao really came into contact with it some time ago, and the bull-nosed Taoist priests of the Lingbao Sect said some obscure words, and they like to pretend to be gods and ghosts the most. ”

Lin Shou put away the chessboard, and the sunspot won the four eyes.

He played very casually, but he didn't expect to win in this way, which made Lin Shou a little doubtful that his chess skills were already very strong.

It's just that Zhong Yunyi suffered, he tried his best to lose to Lin Shou, and even wiped the sweat on his forehead after playing chess, you must know that he was not so embarrassed when he started with the wolf king.

"Spirit Treasure Sect? Is Daoist Lin actually connected with the three sects of Daomen? Zhong Yunyi was a little surprised, but he also felt that it was reasonable, after all, it was understandable that a character like Lin Shou had contact with the three sects on the Daomen.

Lin Shou nodded, and said modestly: "I went out to do some trivial things, and met a Taoist priest of the [Dongxuan] realm of the Lingbao Sect. ”

Zhong Yunyi smiled and said, "Daoist Lin is really modest, what trivial matter would meet the Three Realms True Cultivation of the Spirit Treasure Sect?" ”

Lin Shou waved his hand, and said in his heart, he just went to destroy other people's doors.

Unwilling to say more on this topic, Lin Shou asked again: "Let's talk about the matter of ascending to the god rank, that Lingbao Taoist priest can't say it clearly, could it be that there is a record in the Confucian Holy Codex?" ”

Zhong Yunyi nodded, took out a roll of bamboo slips and put it on the table.

The bamboo slip is like white jade, and I don't consciously put my mind into it just by looking at it slightly.

Lin Shou raised his eyebrows and teased, "Can this thing be shown to monks outside the third realm of Confucianism and Taoism?" ”

"Hehehe, the Confucian Sage didn't say that it can't be watched by others, it's just that it's not suitable for monks under the third realm to see." Zhong Yunyi stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Since Zhong Yunyi said this, Lin Shou naturally didn't twist anything, picked up the bamboo slip and looked at it.

Zhong Yunyi also explained on the side: "Ascending the Divine Rank is just a description, in fact, this is a general term for the way to become above the Four Realms. ”

Lin Shou read the contents of the bamboo slips, which recorded the understanding of the first Confucian sage on the "ascending god long step".

The first generation of Confucian sages was so amazing that they were able to blaze a trail of cultivation on their own.

But even the Confucian sages were in the third realm at the beginning, and they were stuck for a thousand years.

Until he met an old man riding a green ox upside down, the old man's words pointed out the Confucian sage, and also let him go straight from the third realm to the fourth realm.

The specific conversation between the two is not recorded in the Codex, but the Confucian Sage also records the key to entering the fourth realm - "ascending to the divine rank"!

Before the change of heaven and earth, there were really all kinds of immortals and gods in this world, but after the change of heaven and earth, their reputation was hidden, no one knew their god name, and only the records of scales and claws still circulated in the world.

Ascension to the gods is the way to become them, that is, the ritual and path to become "myths".

Nothing in the world is immortal, except mythology!

Regarding the ascending to the god rank, there is such a sentence recorded in the Codex of the Confucian Sage.

"He who wants to become a god reproduces the legend of the god and does what the other does until the other is as you do, and the Tao cannot distinguish between the two, then it is a myth!"

Slowly put away the bamboo slip in his hand, Lin Shou returned it to Zhong Yunyi, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what to think.

"Is it a little hard to understand?" Zhong Yunyi asked Lin Shou with a wry smile, "I was also very shocked when I saw the above content, but I didn't expect that the Fourth Realm was just the starting point of the myth, and it was only the first step in this ladder. ”

Lin Shou exhaled slowly, and said with a flat smile on his face: "That's interesting, isn't it?" But why do you suspect that Qi Shengtian has stepped on the Ascending God Ladder? ”

Zhong Yunyi's face was serious, and he explained: "According to the information about Qi Shengtian sent by my students, I found that what he did seemed to be deliberately imitating something, and some of the behaviors he did should not be like this according to reason, there was obviously an easier or easier way, but he still chose to do it, just ...... It's as if the legend of the 'gods' is repeating itself. ”

"Do what He does until He is what you do...... Really? The corners of Lin Shou's mouth curled up unconsciously, I am afraid that what Zhong Yunyi suspected was the truth.

With the memory of his previous life, he can now be sure that before the changes in this world, those immortals and gods correspond to those immortals in ancient Chinese legends and myths.

Lin Shou once wondered that there were Daomen, Chenghuang, and Dragon Kings in this world, but there was no Heavenly Court, and there were no Three Qings, Four Emperors, Five Elders, Six Divisions, Seven Elements and Eight Poles; There are Buddhism, but there is no such as Lai, Guanyin, Maitreya; Even foreigners have warlocks and magicians, but there is no Norse mythology, no Olympus mythology......

But he knew very well that the first left path supernatural power he had obtained, and his name was [Taishan Mansion Jun Faxiang].

Who is Taishan Fujun?

In the legend of the previous life, Taishan Mansion Jun was a super god who controlled the underworld and the Emperor of Heaven.

This world does not have His name, but there are miraculous powers that bear His name.

And now the young man named Qi Shengtian wears a purple and gold seven-star crown, steps on the lotus silk steps, wears chain gold armor, and uses a golden hoop stick, making trouble in the Dragon Palace and rebelling.

Coupled with the record of the Confucian Codex, "do what the Others do", Lin Shou can be completely sure that this Qi Shengtian wants to step on the Monkey King's ascending steps!

But there are still doubts, and if it's just imitation, there are many problems.

"Then according to this, as long as someone climbs the steps of the gods, then the movement must be not small, after all, how can those legends and events of unknown myths be simple, at least they will be known to many people, so can't others imitate them and 'do what others do'?" Lin Shou looked at Zhong Yunyi and said.

"I've found some explanation for this from other books." Zhong Yunyi replied.

Lin Shou nodded slightly, and then said, "I want to hear about it." ”

"One is that only monks above the third realm are eligible to step on the Ascending Divine Ladder, and the other is that the Ascending Divine Ladder also requires certain conditions to start climbing, I guess it should be some key item of the myth or something like a seed."

"There is also a possibility that the 'Ascending God Long Steps' is unique and can only accommodate one person to climb."

"Or maybe it's both."

Zhong Yunyi slowly said his guess, and he flipped through a large number of ancient books and materials to come to this conclusion.

Lin Shou bowed slightly, and his conjecture was roughly the same.

Ascending the Divine Rank is not something that everyone is qualified to climb, and it may be necessary to obtain an item similar to a voucher and cultivate above the third realm to have a chance.

In this way, it is necessary to explore the legends and deeds of those unknown myths and deeds, and to find the evidence of climbing the god steps...... I don't know how many people have been able to truly ascend to the throne of God throughout the ages. Zhong Yunyi said with a sigh.

"Perhaps, but it's hard for us to know...... Otherwise, how could there be so many traces of evil god activities in Su Province? Lin Shou silently looked up at the sky, only he knew how many so-called god climbers were hidden in the astral boundary above his head.

And are those fallen gods really fallen? Or is it the mistake of 'doing what the Others do' that leads to alienation and depravity? ”

With a smile on his face, Lin Shou remembered the history books he watched in the Taoist temple, which contained countless stories similar to the myths of his previous life, but in the end they all went wrong.

"How many people know the slightest bit of myth and legend? Those who make the mistake are probably the majority. Zhong Yunyi sighed.

With a bright smile on his face, Lin Shou gently tapped his head with his index finger and said, "Yes, how many people can there be?" ”

He became curious and yearning for the "myth" of legends.

After all, only myths are immortal!
