Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Dark River Journey Tao Te Ching
It is said that Xiao Budian stood in the torrent of the underground dark river, and felt the huge impact and surging power of the water around his body, but he could stand in the water effortlessly.
Through the warm sunlight penetrating through the cracks in the ground, he saw that the water of the dark river was so clean, crystal clear, as if there was nothing, located in the depths of the river, he could clearly see the smooth rock wall dozens of meters away on both sides, compared with the sinkhole, there was less transpiration clouds and fog, it looked extremely clear, it was really surprising.
The swimming fish, colorless and transparent, like a kite hanging in the clear air, are quietly fixed there, motionless against the current, and only when it suddenly twists, you will realize that this qiē is actually in the rapids.
Xiao Budian couldn't help but open his mouth, the water obediently poured into his mouth, sweet and clear, Xiao Budian stirred naughtily with his tongue, enjoying the luscious coolness of the spring water, a puff up, and sprayed it out, accompanied by a string of bubbles rising out, suddenly attracting groups of large and small fish of all colors, Xiao Budian's front was suddenly full of countless large and small round bulging eyes, looking at him intently, some of the bold, then hugged up, kissed Xiao Budian's face, arms, all the exposed body, the eater his keratinized skin, Xiao Budian itched all over his body, very comfortableIt's wonderful.
Xiao Budian giggled and laughed, and as soon as he jumped up, he drifted with the water to the depths of the dark river. As the entrance of the cave became far away, the dark river became dark, and soon he could not see his five fingers, and the little point stopped, and the golden dragon at the top of the head escaped, jumped onto the water, and emitted a sun-like light, illuminating the water surface of the dark river as if it were day.
When he saw that the water was very empty and high, he jumped out of the water, and the magnificent scenery in front of him feasted his eyes.
Above the dark river, stalactites are like inverted streamers, dense forests, crystal like jade, dripping water is not stopped, under the glow of the golden dragon, the scales of the whole cave are shining, just like the Milky Way star. Because the river here has become hundreds of meters wide and the terrain is flat, the river surface has also changed from thousands of horses galloping, becoming undisturbed and calm as a mirror. The scale light on the top of the cave is reflected on the mirror-like water surface, and it is impossible to distinguish between the upper and the lower, and the whole person seems to be surrounded by Xinghan.
The beautiful scenery along the way is breathtaking, and the little ones forget the annoyances of a qiē, and their hearts are full of surprises one after another. After about 400 miles of travel, he suddenly noticed a bright light in front of him, and when he arrived, it was a round hole like a patio, and when he looked up, he could see the blue sky. Xiao Budian jumped out of the water, hanging in the air, looking around, beautiful.
A natural large funnel appeared in front of you, looking up from the bottom of this funnel, the bottom is small and the mouth is large, like the eye of the sky, round the sky, as if in the next world. There is a natural stone bridge flying arch nearly 200 meters high on both sides, the stone forest on the bridge is rugged, and the surrounding cliffs and cliffs are covered with verdant forests, ancient vines and saffrons, against the background of the blue sky and clear water, wonderful and picturesque.
Xiao Budian thought to himself, don't say that it is inaccessible, I am afraid that since ancient times, except for the gods and birds, there is no one to reach it.
The small point landed on the flying arch of the stone bridge on the right and took a closer look. But under the stone forest, among the greenery, there are constantly bright red and pink things running around, vaguely there seems to be laughter, frolicking, that little bit of red and white is particularly eye-catching in a piece of green rock and green trees.
Xiao Budian suddenly became childlike, hid his figure, and looked closely, only to see a group of chubby little dolls, about half of his height, all wearing red belly, white cheeks, pink, bright eyes and big eyes, red lips and white teeth, arms like tender white lotus roots, like a New Year's painting elf.
Xiao Budian thought to himself, isn't it the ginseng king that my grandfather often said? Eating food is very beneficial to people's skill cultivation. It's so big, so many, it's a treasure.
Suddenly, the two largest of the leaders stopped, shouted, "It's smelly!" and then glanced around vigilantly. When Xiao Budian saw it, he knew that his smell had been discovered, so he appeared and stood in front of the group of babies, saying, "Hello children!" The babies were taken aback, "Hula!" and scattered and hid.
After staying for a while, seeing that Xiao Budian did not move in place and had no malicious intent, he probed his brain, tentatively showed his head, and asked, "Who are you?"
Xiao Budian smiled and replied softly: "I'm outside the cave, and I'm here to play." Who are you?"
A doll rushed to say: "We are ginseng essence, and we have been growing here for 10,000 years!"
"Can I play with you?"
"You're not a bad person, are you?"
"I'm not, I'm a good person!"
"You're not lying?"
"Lying is a puppy!"
"Okay, let's play together," said the tall one, and the little dolls hula hugged out, surrounding the little dots in the center, some climbed on their shoulders, some hung on their arms and swinged, without suspicion, and were very affectionate.
If you don't look at the small ones, there are 10 in total and 2 large ones. Those ginseng babies exuded a strong ginseng smell, permeating the air, and after smelling it, Xiao Budian couldn't help but take a few deep breaths greedily, and suddenly felt refreshed and refreshed.
After a while, Xiao Budian became familiar with the group of babies and played games such as hide and seek, eagle hunting, etc. The golden dragon is still hidden, guarding in secret.
Xiao Budian asked, "What's the name of this place?" The group of children all shook their heads blankly, and the range of activities of the children had never exceeded beyond the stone bridge. Xiao Budian said: "I think it's called Tianyan!" The girls all nodded, in fact, it didn't matter to them what they were called. Xiao Budian was still worried about walking around, so he said goodbye to the baby, the group of babies are already reluctant, and the innocent friendship does not take too long.
Xiao Budian flew to the left stone bridge that was dozens of meters high, the stone bridge is also clustered with indescribable thousands of years of Ganoderma lucidum and other rare treasures, at one end of the bridge, there is a small cave, the cave entrance is covered by vines, wild flowers are splendid, then use the jade staff to pick open the rattan curtain, into the hole, somehow, the heart suddenly feels solemn, and there is a sense of déjà vu.
Wow, there is a cave in the original cave, there is a wide hall inside, there is a sarcophagus at the end of the hall, there is a natural stone pillar in front of the coffin, the face is smooth, and there is a twist and turn on it that I don't know what kind of astronomy. The shadows of the stone walls on both sides seem to depict something, and when I got closer, I saw that there was a person holding an object, like his own jade staff, a series of movements, as if explaining.
Xiao Bu was full of curiosity, and was about to lean forward to take a closer look, when he suddenly felt a cold wind, and from a hole in the lower right corner of the hall, a large mouth of blood was freed up, and pounced on him, he hurriedly retreated, it was too late, and his body was tightly coiled, and he couldn't move. But it was a green dragon that held him tightly.
Xiao Budian usually does, relying on the jade staff, and now his hands and feet are trapped, so he will use his internal strength, but he actually feels that the meridians are locked, and he can't lift his breath, and his heart is shocked. At this moment, the green dragon suddenly let go of him, like a projectile, and threw him out of the hole!
This qiē is only instantaneous. Xiao Budian felt that the green dragon had no intention of hurting him, but just drove him away. The coercion projected on the green dragon made him feel pressure that he had never felt before. At this moment, a voice sounded in Xiao Budian's ear:
"Dao Shengyi,
Life two,
Two begets three,
Three begets of all things,
All things are negative yin and embrace yang,
Impulsive thought and. ”
Xiao Budian knew that the Ice Blue Fairy had taught him to recite the Tao Te Ching, which was a passage from the Tao Te Ching. The voice was pure and peaceful, and the tone was abrupt, which made Xiao Budian's heart feel calm. The sound came from inside the cave, and it seemed to carry a force that rushed straight to the dantian.
After a moment's pause, the voice sounded again, and said:
"Dao,
Born one by one,
Birth 22,
Sheng Sansan,
Giving birth to all things and all things,
Attached to the yin and embraced the yang,
Impulsive thought and. ”
Xiao Budian was confused, it turned out that the text of this paragraph was the same as just now, but the sentence reading method was completely different, Xiao Budian read silently, kept in mind, when he was reciting, there seemed to be a force, rushing to the dantian, which seemed to be different from just now.
The voice seemed to leave room for a little bit to think about memories, and after a pause, it sounded again:
"The beginning of the nameless world,
The mother of all things.
Therefore, there is often no desire to look at its wonders,
There is often a desire to observe it.
The two have the same name,
It is also said to be mysterious and mysterious.
The Gate of Wonder. ”
Xiao Budian vaguely felt that the voice seemed to be guiding him and enlightening him, every sentence made him extremely comfortable, and every sentence made him feel more powerful. The voice paused for a moment and then said:
"None,
The beginning of the world;
Yes
The mother of all things.
Therefore there is no such thing,
I want to see the wonderful;
Often
I want to see it.
The two are the same, different names, the same name.
Mysterious and mysterious, the door of all wonders. ”
Xiao Budian was shocked, it turned out that this Tao Te Ching, there are actually two different ways to read, and the meaning is also different, this is what the Ice Blue Fairy has never taught! It turns out that when Lao Tzu wrote the Tao Te Ching, there was no punctuation, and later generations read it according to their own understanding, and the meaning was very different.
Xiao Budian felt that the person who made the mysterious voice was by no means casually transmitted to himself, and there must have some kind of heavy meaning, so he recited it silently over and over again, for fear of missing it. Slowly, he found that his mind was as calm as water, and in the sea of dantian qi, the cyclone was surprisingly gentle, and there was no slightest turbulence. Don't?
The voice never came again, and fell silent. Xiao Budian thought to himself, in this person's voice, the internal force is extremely strong, I don't know what kind of master he is, it won't be Lao Tzu, right? . Why did he not let himself stay in the cave, but he preached to himself? As he recited the Tao Te Ching, his voice would echo in his ears, and his dantian would undergo wonderful changes.
Little Dot's mind was filled with why, and he knew that he couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he bowed deeply to the entrance of the cave, turned down, and dived into the water of the dark river to continue his journey to the dark river.
Little Budian doesn't know that a huge trap is waiting for him.
If you want to know how the little ones live, please listen to the next breakdown.
