Chapter 59: Teaching at the Door
Ma Fan stood in front of the thatched hut on the side of the waterhole, looked around, and Zuihou turned his eyes from the crumbling thatched hut, his face full of incredulity: "Teacher...... You live here...... can't I be too wronged by your old man?"
Tong Yuan smiled and said: "There is nothing wronged or wronged, brocade clothes and jade food will only wear down people's will, which is not conducive to cultivation, and there is nothing unpleasant about being quiet here." But this place is so simple just because I like thrift and quiet, you don't have to practice like this to be successful, if you don't like this environment, you don't have to learn from me to live such a life in the future. None of the rumored saints who are high above are extravagant, but it does not affect their pursuit of the Great Dao. As long as you can do it without being trapped by external objects, you will have nothing to live a luxurious life in the future. β
Ma Fan looked at Tong Yuan, who was harmless to people and animals in front of him, and always had a smile on his face, and said, "Teacher, you have such a high state of mind, you can't cultivate into an immortal, I really can't figure it out." β
Tong Yuan said: "Is your mood high? I don't think so." If I have to talk about the state of mind, now I am in this mountain, leisurely, and I have also broken the heart to climb to a higher realm, for many years of cultivation has not made an inch, do you say I am tall, but I think it was a few decades ago when I was happy in the rivers and lakes, and when I climbed towards the higher peaks of martial arts in the army, my state of mind was higher, and my cultivation in those years has advanced by leaps and bounds, which also proves that that state of mind is more suitable for cultivation at that time.
Today, many small sects like to hone the state of mind of new disciples, make a large number of phantom arrays or something, plus the brainwashing on weekdays, the disciples in the door lose their nature at a young age, and they are dumbfounded, and they can sit on the futon all day long and meditate without disgust and irritability, in the words of those sects, this is the state of mind has improved, the disciple's temperament is calm, and it is suitable for cultivation, but it is often difficult for these sects to produce a master, although these sects attribute the reason to the failure of their own sect's cultivation method, but I think it is very differentγ Why don't those big sects, whether they are practicing Buddhism or cultivating the Tao, have so many rules, and they don't even prohibit the disciples in the sect from killing people, nor do they prohibit the disciples in the sect from engaging in any conspiracy. In fact, in the final analysis, it is those small sects that understand the wrong direction. No matter what you cultivate in the world, even if it is refining the body like us, there will be bottlenecks, and when you encounter a bottleneck, sometimes an occasional moment of inspiration is very important, and if you grasp it, you can often cross a ditch and cultivate for great progress, if you don't have this momentary inspiration, if you want to cross this ditch, it will take countless times of water grinding kung fu to cross it, these sects are unknown, so the early spirituality has been worn out early, so that these disciples are stuck in the previous level early, so what is the use of having their so-called high realm?
Besides, there is no such thing as having to be in a state of mind to become an immortal. Everyone has their own character, people are different from each other, and everyone's experience is different, different people, different places, different times of the state of mind are different, maybe thousands of years later, you kill like hemp, maybe you are a submissive person after thousands of years, can you say that your realm is high? That is not necessarily, but your strength is improved after all. If it is said that it is necessary to repay grievances with virtue in order to achieve success in cultivation, then why do those big devils who kill people like hemp and those big demons who eat countless people have such cultivation? Although I have not been able to cultivate the Dao, I have comprehended a truth in the past few years, that I can pursue the Great Dao in any state of mind, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior, and there is no need to force myself to achieve what kind of state of mind, and I do not have to deliberately imitate the character of those masters. No matter what you encounter or make any decisions, as long as you can always achieve the mastery of your thoughts, your thoughts will be accessible, your conscience will be clear, and you will not leave any shadow in your heart, you can pursue the avenue. If you care too much about your state of mind or something, you will make your thoughts impure, so if you want to be my disciple, you first put aside these messy things that you have learned from the outside that affect your thoughts. β
Ma Fan smiled after hearing Tong Yuan's words, and then asked, "Teacher, what kind of magical power did you use on the way you took me here just now?"
Tong Yuan said with a smile: "Do you know what a supernatural power is? Divine power is to cultivate a technique to an extremely high level, understand its essence, and be able to discard all kinds of things such as spells and gestures, as long as the thought arrives, you can instantly exert this technique, this is called supernatural power." To put it bluntly, it is the god who has understood this technique, and the essence of this technique, which is to obtain this magical power. Just now I took you to the road is also a miraculous power, but it's just a small magical power, originally just some trails used to hurry, but also just a very simple footwork, these years I walked and walked a lot, unconsciously out of a bit of charm, figured out the principle of this footwork, can be at will on the actual combat of this footwork, and can take you to walk only. If you want to learn it, I can teach you these footsteps, but you are a cultivator, and you will definitely learn the art of flying and all kinds of escape techniques in the future, not to mention those advanced escape techniques, even some of the worst land flying techniques can also travel thousands of miles a day and eight hundred at night, so I will definitely not be much use in the future after learning this step, just practice it after learning it, and use it to hurry up now, there is no need to spend too much time and mind on it, and there is no need to cultivate to my realm. β
The reason why Ma Fan asked for the word supernatural power was just that he was used to it, after all, in his previous life, the word shijie was used badly, but he didn't expect that because of the word supernatural power, Tong Yuan could say such a truth. Ma Fan thought to himself: "Alas, although I haven't learned those powerful skills, but these few words since I came here have benefited me a lot, there are really two things like having a teacher and not having a teacher, and I am not wrong as a teacher." β
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, although you are only my registered disciple, but since you want to follow me to learn art, you should follow me to meet Master Zu!"
Ma Fan asked: "Teacher, I heard you say today that your teacher is the Jade Zhenzi of the Eight Earth Immortals, who are the Eight Earth Immortals except for the old man and the old man, and what kind of strength do they have?"
Tong Yuan said: "Hmph, you kid are still afraid that the ancestor will insult you, okay, let me tell you the truth, the eight earth immortals in the world are Zuo Ci, Yu Ji, Yu Zhenzi, Ge Xuan, Li Tong, Nanhuo De Xingjun, Zixu Shangren, Li Yi, these eight people are all cultivating the earth immortal lineage, and all of them are characters who have achieved the earth immortal, which is very good." β
