The next day, early in the morning.

When Li Xie appeared in front of Tao Yao with a pair of big black circles, Tao Yao frowned slightly, "Today is the day of Xiao Langjun's enlightenment, and you still need to pay attention to your appearance." ”

Li Xie agreed absentmindedly and said to Tao Yao, "Where can I see the anthology and poetry collection that Brother Tao Yao said yesterday, and who is the editor?" ”

Tao Yao waved her hand to attract a stream of clear spring into the basin, and said, "These are all details, Xiao Langjun, please clean your face first, so as not to miss the time of enlightenment." ”

Li Xie wanted to say something, but Tao Yao interrupted Li Jie, held the towel in his hand, and continued, "The matter of enlightenment is too important for Xiao Langjun, and it is not too late to talk about other things after Xiao Langjun is enlightened." ”

Li Xie wiped his face twice, Tao Yao stopped talking, but took Li Xie through the peach blossom forest and came to the island in the middle of the lake.

"I'll send Xiao Langjun here, please Xiao Langjun go by himself." Tao Yao saluted Li Jie, Li Xie returned the salute, Tao Yao blew the whistle again, and the tree root bridge surfaced.

Just when Li Xie stepped on the tree root bridge, the peach blossoms in the sky began to fly on both sides of the tree root bridge, Li Xie looked back at Tao Yao in front of the peach blossom forest in surprise, and Tao Yao had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The master is enlightened for Xiao Langjun, it is for the big event of my master's house, although there is no silk bamboo piano and drum music, Tao Yao greets and sends off with peach blossoms, and chats with comfort." Tao Yao's voice echoed throughout the island area in the middle of the lake, "Congratulations for Xiaolangjun, congratulations for the master." ”

Li Xie walked along the root bridge to the door of the small courtyard on the island in the middle of the lake, and countless peach blossoms followed Li Xie to form a huge wreath, and the door of the small courtyard opened, and the wreath gradually became smaller into a corolla and fell on Li Jie's hand.

Li Xie stepped into the small courtyard with a wreath, only to feel that the scenery in front of him was not the last time, but a quaint courtyard, with an offering table in the middle of the courtyard, the table was empty, and the master and Mr. Liu stood on one side with a smile.

I saw the Master turn around, bow to the offering table, and say, "The supreme man has no self, the god has no merit, and the saint has no name." Look up to the high, vertical and standing, revered forever. The way of the sage, the golden sound and jade vibrate, the moon is bright through the ages. Today, there is no instrument, and the end of learning is advanced, and the saint is enlightened. The ancestor of humanity, the ancestor of humanity, inherits the torch. ”

At this time, a group of figures appeared vaguely on the offering table, as if there was nothing, and a voice without the slightest emotion echoed in everyone's ears, but it seemed to rise directly from the bottom of everyone's hearts, "Yes." ”

The master turned to Li Xie and said, "Please, offer the crown." ”

Li Xie stood at a loss, not knowing what the master meant, and suddenly blessed his heart, bowed to the figure, then straightened up, took a few steps forward and placed the flower crown on the offering table.

The master waited for Li Xie to stand still, stretched out a finger and pointed at Li Jie's eyebrows, Li Xie found himself in a trance and found that he had entered an empty space, there was a huge statue in the space, and a voice sounded, "Where did it come from?" ”

Li Xie was stunned, and his voice sounded again, "Where are you going?" ”

The voice sounded again, "What does it mean for a person to live and do nothing?" ”

What does this mean, when Li Xie was thinking about it, his mouth instantly pursed, "I came from the Tang Dynasty in the East and went to the West Heaven to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures." ”

For a while, the whole space was full of golden light, the statue turned into a Buddha statue, and the voice sounded again, "There is a Buddha preaching, and there are winds and flags from time to time, a monk says, the wind moves, a monk says the flags move, why move?" ”

Li Xie thought to himself, logically speaking, it is heartbeat, for himself, this world is unreasonable, and replied, "They are all moving, and being motionless is the eighth king." ”

The Buddha statue changed again, turning into three Taoist statues, and the voice sounded again, "The former dreamed of Hu Die, and the lifelike Hu Die is also, self-proclaimed and suitable!" I don't know myself. Oh Ran Jue, then he is also so. I don't know that the dream is Hu Die, and the dream of Hu Die is my own? ”

Li Jie's brain is down, this is an allusion to Zhuang Zhou's dream butterfly, rubbing, isn't this a portrayal of the traverser, am I crossing or my predecessor crossing, am I the dream of my predecessor, or is it my dream now, play? Why is it all philosophical speculation?

At this time, the master of the small courtyard and Mr. Liu were looking at Li Xie for a while, the Confucian aura for a while, the Buddha light of Buddhism, and the Taoist pure qi for a while. The expression on Li Jie's face was sometimes painful, sometimes soothing, but he hadn't been awake for a long time.

"What was this kid asked? And what was answered? Mr. Liu's eyes widened, "The saint is above, is this a third-line initiate?" ”

The master frowned, "Enlightened questions are all demonic obstacles in the heart. This son seems to be a human and not a human, like a demon and not a demon, this enlightened question, I can't say well, after all, this shemale enlightenment is the first time in the world. ”

"You're not sure why you insist on enlightening him, wouldn't it be better for him to practice martial arts? After all, he has a martial arts father who is almost five realms. Mr. Liu said, "I really didn't think that shemale enlightenment would be like this. ”

Before the words fell, a demonic aura suddenly appeared on Li Jie's body, and the phantom of nine heads, eight arms and eight wings flashed behind Li Jie.

Mr. Liu sighed and said to the master, "Demon, it won't be a complete demon." ”

The master waved his hand, "It's okay, people are rolled up in his body, and a little demonic energy can't become the climate." ”

At this time, the statue in front of Li Xie turned into a human head and a bird body, like a rooster, a phoenix with five colors, and the voice sounded, "What is a human being, what is a demon, the weak eat the strong, and natural selection." ”

Li Xie thought of the wolf nature, survival of the fittest, and elite mentioned by the so-called successful people in his previous life, and immediately choked back with a sentence, "People are born of people, demons are born, what kind of weak and strong eat, it's just robber logic." ”

The statue dispersed as the words fell, Li Jie's eyes were empty, and then a stone platform appeared in front of him, and a picture scroll was enshrined on the stone platform, Li Xie felt that it was so familiar?

The picture scroll unfolded, and a dazzling light erupted from the picture scroll, Li Xie felt dazzling, and blocked his eyes with his hand, and when the light dissipated, Li Jiefang took his hand, but saw the master and Mr. Liu looking at him with a concerned face.

"Humanity is magnificent, and the fire is eternal." The master said, "Renjuan finally chose you. ”

"Master, have I succeeded in enlightenment?" Li Xie was still a little dizzy, "But I still don't feel like I've changed?" ”

The master smiled, "Enlightenment, just got the qualification to obtain extraordinary power, as for the extraordinary power, you still need to work hard in the future, Taoists call this called Shou Zheng, Buddhism called Breaking Mortal Dust, from now on you are qualified to step into the journey of finding the truth, don't forget today." From today on, you will be my unthinkable student, enter my door wall, and pass on my ancestry. ”

Li Xie was puzzled for a while, today, why can't he forget today, is he in a daze that he has entered the master's door?

I thought that the enlightenment was over, and I was omnipotent in heaven and earth, and co-authoring was an admission letter, and I had to work hard if I wanted to become stronger, and the question just now was quite a college entrance examination?

Master and Mr. Liu, the riddler, can you explain everything clearly.

The master turned around and picked up the garland on the offering table, and said to Li Xie with a smile, "Tao Yao's congratulatory gift to you is also very heartfelt. This flower crown can calm the mind and protect the mind, which is suitable for you. Before being dedicated to the will of the saint, he was baptized by the power of the saint, and since then it has been of infinite use. ”

After speaking, he put the flower crown on Li Jie's head, and the flower crown flashed away on Li Jie's head, and Li Xie faintly felt that his slightly tired spirit was lifted at this time because he had not slept all night.

Li Xie touched the top of his head, but there was no trace of the flower crown, and looked at the master suspiciously.

The master ignored Li Jie's inquiring eyes and stretched out his hand to Mr. Liu, "Your congratulatory gift." ”

Mr. Liu smiled, reached out and took out a wooden sword, and handed it to the master.

The master took the sword and said to Li Jie, "The sword is a gentleman's weapon, a righteous soldier, and an unyielding blade." It is the first protector of the way for my readers. This sword is made of thousands of years of lightning strike willow wood, and there is a trace of thunder true meaning, once it is used, the demon retreats, and the brilliance is like the sky, and the galaxy is covered with brilliance. ”

Li Xie took it with both hands, and his fingers slid through the spine of the sword, and there was a slight tingling feeling.

The master turned over his hand and took out a jade pendant, hung it on Li Jie's waist, and continued, "A gentleman is like jade, hidden but not exposed, a gentleman has no reason, and jade does not go to his body." This jade pendant is the thing marked by my door, the inside is a world of its own, can be stored, can protect the body, can be transmitted, the person who holds this jade pendant is a disciple of my sect, unyielding immortal Buddha, not afraid of demons. ”

After finishing speaking, the master pointed to Li Jie's eyebrows, Li Xie only felt that his eyebrows were slightly cold and then painful, and a drop of blood dripped on the jade pendant, and then quickly seeped in.

I heard the master smile and said, "I have loaded some books for you in this jade pendant, and the way of a scholar is to start from reading." “

Li Xie felt that there seemed to be something more around him, and he wanted to grab it, but he unconsciously stretched out his hand and took out a book from the void. Then he stuffed the book and the wooden sword back again, looked at the empty palm, and immediately understood that this was the legendary storage weapon, in the previous life, this thing belonged to the high-end luxury in the description, there were rings, necklaces, earrings, belts, and even baggage, but in fact, each book was a rotten street thing. There are protagonists, supporting roles, decent bosses, villains, and the most speechless thing is that maybe a little minion will also have it, everything depends on what the author thinks.

Just when Li Xie was distracted, the jade pendant lit up slightly, and a rough voice came out of the jade pendant, "Little cub, you were taken under the master's door, I am very happy." But Lao Tzu is very depressed, you are a disciple of the master, aren't you the same generation as me, no, how can this senior brother and father be counted... ”

It turned out to be the voice of Li Shenhou, who had not been seen for a long time, but this word was really speechless.

I heard a gentle voice from the other end of the jade pendant, "Monkey, don't talk nonsense, the master is on the side, don't be presumptuous." Li Jie, when you get started today, you can't help but say that if you meet in the future, the uncle will give you a meeting gift. ”

This is, the jade pendant also comes with a mobile phone function? That's what does arraignment mean? But Li Shenhou's words are really unspeakable, such an unreliable father, did he choose the wrong one?

I heard Li Shenhou continue, "Senior brother's son, Lao Tzu went beforehand, and there were people who didn't open their eyes to come to the door to beg for beating, I really thought that I, Li Shenhou, was a bully." ”

"Master, I will retire with the monkey first, and I will sort out the matter of Kyoto as soon as possible." Qi Xu's voice said.

"Good." The Master said.

Mr. Liu waved his hand to put away the offering table, and with another wave of his hand, a futon appeared under Li Jie's feet, and a desk appeared in front of him, and he said to Li Jie, "Sit." ”

Li Xie sat down according to his words, and saw the master and said, "My sect is most unaccustomed to the rules and regulations of Confucianism. So I simplified it, what three prostrations and nine prostrations, what kind of holy words, what kind of officiating officer, etc., are not all wanted, only the core essence of enlightenment, the will of the saints, and the enlightenment question. ”

"Without further ado, today, I will explain this world to you, which is the first lesson of enlightenment." Seeing that the master suddenly stood solemnly, Li Xie couldn't help but sit up straight.

"This heaven and earth are divided into two worlds, the place where our human race stands is Shenzhou, and the land of the demon race is called mountains and seas."

"In the Shenzhou realm, there are nine countries of the Immortal Dynasty under the existing Immortal Court, two countries under the Buddha Kingdom, two countries of the Great and Small Vehicles, and one independent dynasty of our human race. The subhuman race, whose country does not know how many mortals. ”

"The Shenzhou Realm, its territory is so wide, I don't know how many tens of thousands of miles it is, and the creatures in our realm have been exploring for tens of millions of years, but it is only one or two percent."

"The realm of mountains and seas, the land of the demon clan, the rule of chaos, there is a demon court, there is a demon dynasty, there is a demon country, there is a demon alliance, I don't know how many of them, the prosperity of the demon clan depends on the demon god's thought, a thought, a thought, a thought."

"In ancient times, the mountains and seas of Shenzhou were connected, our human race was ignorant, in order to survive, in order to seek shelter, worship the demon god, called the witch god, the demon god likes flesh and blood and souls, and my human race has been reduced to slaves, livestock, and rations. There is no daylight, and the clan is almost wiped out. ”

"Fortunately, the saints have descended, and the ancestors of our human race have a blue road, and they can see the dawn through thorns and thorns."

"The saint was born with his own wisdom, and he is suspected of being the reincarnation of the ancient people's power, leading our human race to discover the ancient human civilization, summoning the gods of the ancient people's race, uniting other alien races who can hardly bear the brutal rule of the demon gods, rising up to resist, and gradually getting rid of the rule of the demon gods."

"After the saints established the Tao, collected 3,000 disciples, and preached the world, there were people who were transcendent from our human race, and each disciple either became immortals, or turned into Buddhas, or studied the classics, seeking a new transcendent path."

Li Xie listened quietly, this is the master instilling a world view in himself, and it is also the first step for him to understand the world, Li Xie sighed a little emotionally, it's not easy, he has traveled for so long before he knows that this world is actually two? If you go to the demon clan by yourself, is it considered to be crossing?

Master continued, "The saint became enlightened and divided the two worlds of Shenzhou, mountains and seas, and since then the demons have been separated, and our human race has its own piece of heaven and earth. ”

"The sage senses that there is a shortage of heaven and earth, collects the source of all living beings in Shenzhou, establishes the way of heaven, determines ethics, and divides yin and yang. Since then, all living beings have lived and worked in peace and contentment under the Heavenly Dao. ”

"The demon clan was driven from the mountains and seas, and the power of the demon clan was born, communicating the will of the mountains and seas, heaven and earth, and incarnating as Taiyi to confront the way of heaven."

"The demon clan is unwilling to lose the land of Shenzhou, and now the power of the whole clan has invaded Shenzhou, at that time, the saint was exhausted because of the establishment of the Heavenly Dao, and he was unable to destroy the demon clan, and set up a mountain between the two worlds, called Kunlun, also known as the mountain of the two worlds."

"Our human race relies on the defense line of the Two Realms Mountains to resist the invasion of the demon race."

"Later, because Taiyi entered the Two Realms Mountain, the Heavenly Dao also entered, and since then, the Two Realms Mountain has been entangled by the power of Heavenly Dao and Taiyi, and it has become a system of its own."

"The sage established the twelve Zhengguo in Shenzhou, which was for the Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, Jin, Sui, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, taken from the Taigu people's Zhengshuo, and the twelve hearts of the witch gods of the human race were the totems of the twelve Zhengchao."

When Li Xie heard the Twelve Zhengguo, he almost didn't stand up, isn't this the Twelve Great Unification Dynasty of Chinese Civilization? The Archaic Race? Is this that I did not travel to other worlds, tens of thousands of years after the destruction of civilization? No, the matter of gods and ghosts doesn't make sense in his previous life, but it doesn't make sense to go through this matter by himself.

I want to get to the bottom of it, but I don't know where to start.

Li Xie thought about it and was about to say something, but saw Mr. Liu stop him with a look, and Mr. Liu's voice sounded in his heart, "Master teach, don't interject." ”

I listened to the master continue, "The Twelve Zhengguo lasted for 10,000 years, until the Immortal Buddhas passed down their own Taoist system in the Two Realms Mountain, and the descendants of the Immortal Buddha's Taoist system overthrew the Wushen Dynasty and established the Immortal Court Buddha Kingdom. ”

"The Taoism of our human race is all passed down from the three thousand sons of the sage, and the three thousand sages are gradually divided into several categories: those who seek immortals, those who worship Buddha and enlighten themselves, those who study the classics, and those who seek new paths."

"At first, the immortals, the backers of people, the saints based on the ancient cultivation classics combined with the worship of witches and gods to develop the way of the wizard, created the immortal cultivation system, the cultivation of immortals to a certain realm, the name will be engraved on the heavenly way of heaven, since then immortal and immortal, but it has become the follower of the heavenly way, protecting the operation of the heavenly way. The end point of the cultivation of the Immortal Dao is to become the Heavenly Dao. Every three hundred and thirty-three years, the immortal can be reincarnated once, it seems to be a gift from heaven, after the tribulation, the immortal will always be enlightened, and the cultivation will be diligent. ”
