"Oh?"

Hearing this, Zuo Ruotong was a little curious.

Why Practice?

This is not a simple matter, but a matter of one's future.

To be honest, this should not be a child's consideration, after all, there are only a few reasons for children to embark on the path of cultivation, one is to be strong, the second is to go with the flow, and the third is to be coerced by adults.

It's like reading a book.

If you ask your child why they are studying, they will basically say that their parents let them read.

Because the child's mind is not sound enough.

I don't know what I want.

will only do things according to his own temperament, and do good and bad things, regardless of good and evil.

As for Li Muxuan, Zuo Ruotong still remembers that when he was rowing him in the lower courtyard before, this kid once said that the reason why he changed his name to Mu Xuan and came to Trinity Gate to apprentice was because he was the strongest in his cognition.

But for now.

The child seems to have a deeper understanding of himself and his spiritual practice.

It's not just about 'getting stronger'.

Come to think of it.

Zuo Ruotong couldn't help but wonder what was the reason for supporting Li Muxuan's hard work.

Immediately, he took the initiative to ask.

"Why?"

Hearing this, Li Muxuan didn't hide it, and said his thoughts generously.

"Master, you said... What the hell am I? Is everything in this world real? Is it possible that it was just a big dream on my part? ”

The voice fell.

Zuo Ruotong's eyes suddenly became complicated.

There are only four words that come to mind.

Zhuang Zhou Mengdie.

It is not uncommon for people to question whether the world really exists for a long time.

But what made Zuo Ruotong feel incredible was that how could Li Muxuan, a child, doubt the world and his own existence, this question should not be what he thinks, nor is it something he can figure out.

After all, even if it is oneself, I dare not be absolutely sure whether this world really exists.

Of course, there is no need to think about it.

Because it's so empty.

Instead of thinking about this, it is better to think about more pragmatic issues and do everything well in the moment.

Thinking of this, Zuo Ruotong was just about to open his mouth to persuade.

Just listen to Li Muxuan's voice.

"I figured it out later."

"Whether it's a dream or a reality, the only thing I can be sure of is that I am me at this moment."

"And the reason why I practice is not for anything else, is that I want to see my true face clearly, see the true face of the world clearly, and only seek one truth in a state where I am not affected by anything and are absolutely independent of my nature and life."

Li Muxuan's tone was extremely serious.

He has nothing to shy away from what he wants, so he says it generously.

And at this time, after listening to this.

Rao is self-conscious Zuo Ruotong, who is used to seeing wind and waves, can't help but stare at his disciples dumbfounded.

He didn't expect that when others didn't know why they were living, why they were practicing, or when they were lost on the path of seeking, his disciples would already have a clear pursuit.

No wonder this kid was able to teach Wang Yaozu a lesson at that time.

To tell you the truth, on the road of seeking the way.

As far as the whole group of indulgent and reckless people are concerned, I am afraid that they are not even qualified to carry shoes for him.

And the worry he had just now is obviously superfluous, this child is far more transparent in dealing with reality and dreams than he thinks, and he will not lose himself because of doubt, but because of doubt, he has a truth-seeking mind.

Is this considered what the sage said, that there is birth from nothingness, there is nothing born from being, and there is nothing born from nothing.

Although the relationship between truth and falsehood is contradictory and opposite, just like yin and yang, the two on opposite sides can be transformed into each other, and this transformation process is the Tao.

Thinking about it.

Li Muxuan's voice came again.

"Master, you just asked me how I felt when I learned about my talent."

"Actually, that's what the disciples think, I don't practice for the sake of others, and when I'm weaker than others, I don't compare myself with others, because the Tao comes out, not out."

"It's the same thing."

"Am I going to compare myself to others when I'm better than others?"

"Haven't I forsaken my way, then?"

"The so-called strong and weak, genius and mediocre."

"To put it bluntly, it's just the outside world's perception and perception of me, and I won't change because of them."

Li Muxuan opened his mouth, what he asked for was a truth, not an illusory self in the mirror, so when facing the outside world, he would only treat it as a reference.

However, when these words fell on Zuo Ruotong's ears, it was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, which made his heart shake violently.

In his view, cultivation is nothing more than two things.

First, be clear-minded.

Know what you want.

Second, keep your feet on the ground.

For what you want, you don't stay in the fantasy stage, but put it into action and put it into practice.

However, the truth is easy to say, but it is difficult to do, and the difficulty here refers not only to the actual difficulties, but also to the delusions and distractions that arise in the heart.

Just like most readers.

When he was down, he shouted, 'Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations'.

But what about when they are really famous, powerful, and official?

How many will live up to their original words?

Can't say one doesn't have.

But there are very few.

And this is also the reason why it is difficult to practice.

To borrow a phrase from a saint.

The rich and the rich cannot be moved, the poor and the lowly cannot be moved, and there are always very few who can do it from the beginning to the end.

Why, because the road of seeking the Tao often needs to be flexible, people are alive, the Tao is alive, and smart people will inevitably take shortcuts and be flexible, but the way will also disappear as they walk.

It's right to be smart, it's right to take shortcuts, it's right to be flexible, it's wrong to forget your original intention.

And Li Muxuan, this child.

At this age, in the face of the great transformation from an ordinary person to a genius, and to be able to do not change his mind and reason, this kind of mind, as long as he does not encounter major changes on the road of cultivation in the future, can be said to be indomitable.

After all, to have understanding, to have qualifications, and to have a good heart, it is even more outrageous.

It's simply a Heavenly Chosen Dao disciple.

Come to think of it.

Zuo Ruotong did not hesitate.

"Mu Xuan."

"Are you willing to follow me to cultivate the Reverse Birth Triple Fold?"

Zuo Ruotong spoke, at this moment, he was only satisfied with the disciple in front of him.

He used to think that preaching might take more effort in preaching, teaching, and solving doubts, but now that he is a master in preaching, he is also dispensable.

It's even better to teach and solve doubts.

"Master Xie, the disciple is willing."

At this time, Li Muxuan heard that his master was going to pass on his reverse birth triple, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

He has been interested in this practice for a long time.

After all, his concept is not much different from the Neidan method he learned in his previous life, both of them want to push back from the three reverses to one, and return to the innate state of one Qi that is mysterious and mysterious.

I don't know if it's all ways of refining and refining gas, refining gas and transforming gods, and refining gods and returning to emptiness.

But anyway.

It's not a loss to be able to see the demeanor of this exercise.

As for cultivating to the highest third level.

Do your best.

"Okay, you'll come here to me in three days."

Zuo Ruotong bowed slightly, and then turned his gaze to Lu Jin, "How much did you understand what your senior brother said just now?" ”

Lu Jin suddenly looked ashamed, shook his head and said, "The disciple listened to it, but he didn't dare to explain it. ”

This is his truth, for the eight-year-old him, he heard every word Li Muxuan said just now, but when it was connected, he couldn't understand it.

"Hmm."

Zuo Ruotong nodded, but he didn't say anything.

just advised: "Today's words are rotten in the stomach, no matter who asks you, don't say it." ”

"In addition, if there is a mistake, you will be punished, wait until you go and tell your senior brother Shuiyun, the two of you will go to Qichong to receive the punishment together, and this time the matter will be settled."

"Disciple understands."

Lu Jin nodded in agreement with Master's disposition.

"Let's go down then."

"The disciple retired."

As he spoke, Lu Jin turned around and left, and in the process, he didn't forget to salute Li Muxuan.

And not long after he left.

"Mu Xuan, what do you think of your junior brother?"

Zuo Ruotong asked.

"It's very honest, and the people are not bad."

Li Muxuan said without thinking, this is his true opinion of Lu Jin.

"Got it."

"You can continue to practice."

Hearing this, a smile rose at the corner of Zuo Ruotong's mouth, and he was going to find a practice partner for Li Muxuan.
