Chapter 30: Taoism
After teasing Rabbit No. 1, Phantom jumped happily on the way to Rabbit No. 2's nest.
Number Two is about to be ravaged by the Grass Demon...... The rabbit who taught was naturally the little fire phoenix that seemed to be very easy to bully in front of Phantom. Although a small flame can burn the grass bald, the well-behaved Changjue obviously never thought of resisting.
Tsk, these are two or three things that must be said between the obedient five good young men and the treacherous and cunning bad water and grass demons.
There is a large open space in the courtyard where Ge Sheng and Nagaku live to dry herbs. In spring and March, heaven and earth are born, and all things are prosperous. The honeysuckle picked before sunrise is evenly spread on the gauze basket for the first time to dry; the jade bamboo that has been planted for three years is the harvest season, and the jade bamboo with intact rhizomes is picked out and exposed to the sun separately according to its size; Ge Sheng is bundling the gentian grass that has dried to seventy percent into small handfuls and preparing to dry it for the second time; Chang Jue is kneading the fresh Yuanzhi on the side, some of the finer ones have been beaten with wooden sticks, and the wooden hearts are pulled out and neatly arranged, and the thicker ones can only be kneaded with bare hands to extract the wooden hearts after they are soft, and finally dry them.
Many herbs need to be picked at the right time of year and then processed repeatedly. The process is cumbersome and complicated, so it requires a certain amount of pharmacological knowledge, and it also needs to be patient and careful, Ge Sheng has always been reluctant to hand over the work of fiddling with medicinal herbs to others, and would rather work hard himself, but looking at the current situation, Chang Jue has obviously won Ge Sheng's trust.
Ge Sheng is a very friendly character to everyone, but he is very stubborn about the things he cares about, Lin Qiyi said that Ge Sheng is the most difficult existence in the whole valley, soft and hard do not eat, it is simply the appearance of soft persimmon Iron Walnut heart, especially when dealing with these herbal medicine books, even the "real stone" Lin Qiyi is not as hard as the second stunned Ge Sheng.
I'm afraid Chang Jue is the only person in this valley who can enter Ge Sheng's world besides the master.
Phantom Wu stood quietly holding the book on the side, smelling the unique smell of all kinds of herbs and earthy jerky smell in this courtyard, which was actually the most familiar to her, and reminded her of the past when she was rooted in the dirt and could not move, but she was extremely relieved.
On those days when there were no worries and no worries, I would bask in the sun and sleep every day, and at most, when I was thirsty and couldn't wait for the rain, I would expect Master to water myself and my companions. At that time, the master was not her own master, and there was not even a companion with spiritual sense, but everyone was the same kind with leaves and petals, and as a very responsible grass demon, she felt that her expectations also contained the expectations of thousands of people of the same kind.
But she could not speak yet, so the only thing she could do was to stretch out her leaves and swing her branches to express her appeal when the fairy came. At this time, the immortal will show a smile on her face, and then she will smile and conjure up a rain cloud, and she can stretch her neck to drink water and drink to her heart's content, and even the leaves can be washed brightly, and then her mood will be better for a long, long time.
The immortal doesn't come every day, but every day or two he comes here to sit and talk to himself and tell a story, or just how he's feeling today. Phantom Wu was annoyed with him at first, but after a long time, she didn't feel so annoyed, and even had some expectations. If the immortal hadn't appeared for too long, she would break the leaves and count the days he hadn't appeared, and then she would start to worry or be lost or angry, and this was the first time since she had spiritual sense that something would bother him as well. Like the immortal who occasionally showed a bit of a lost expression, she could slowly realize what it was to be unhappy.
She had already discovered that the fairy would be in a daze when he was unhappy, and when he was happy, he would stretch out his slender fingers to caress her leaves while laughing, making her tickle and want to tremble. A few times he would sleep here, and Phantom found that she could see his dreams while he slept, most of them about a woman, some of them were warm, some of them were cold. But whether it was cold or warm, Phantom Wu was very happy, because she found that those dreams could make her eat very full, more and more delicious than inhaling rain, dew, sunshine or the aura in the valley, and every time she ate the dream, she could grow up a little more, and these changes made her happy, because before she knew it, she also began to yearn to become a person with hands and feet like an immortal. She wanted to touch him, too, to know if his body felt cold or warm, soft as herself, or hard as a stone.
It was also in the dream that she knew that the woman in the dream was called Luo Zhao, and when he was angry, he would call her full name Luo Zhao, and when he was not angry, he would call her A Luo. And Luo Zhao called him Hui Ming, and his name was Hui Ming. Even if Hui Ming doesn't sleep, Phantom Wu will let him fall asleep, at first she found that as long as she thinks about asking him to sleep, he can sleep, and then she often thinks about letting him sleep, no way, she needs those dreams so much, she wants to grow up.
Later, she found that warm dreams made Hui Ming happier than those cold dreams, and she was able to recall the dreams he had in the past after he fell asleep, and then send them to his mind, and he could have happy dreams. Slowly, she became more aware of what made people happy and what made people unhappy in those dreams, she tasted sweet and warm in happy dreams, and she tasted salty and cold in unhappy dreams. That was the first time she intuitively experienced what it was like to see human emotions differently than she did.
But there are many things that she still can't understand, such as why sometimes Hui Ming is obviously smiling, but she tastes bitter, and sometimes Hui Ming is in tears, but she can eat sour and sweet dreams. It turns out that there are so many flavors of people's dreams, and people's feelings are so complicated.
Until one day, Hui Ming woke up and looked at her in a daze, with no superfluous expression on his face, but Huanwu just felt his unhappiness. She thought that her small movements were probably discovered by Hui Ming, and she was a little frightened and shrank her head into the leaves. But she had some strange emotions, she obviously wanted to make Hui Ming happy, wasn't that right? She felt a little angry and a little lost, she didn't understand what that feeling was called.
When she shrunk her head and didn't understand, Hui Ming smiled, stretched out her finger and tapped her petals, and his nice voice came: "I have long known that you will eat my dreams, you are eating dreams to grow, in this no-man's land you have no dreams to eat and it is difficult to grow, let you eat some dreams, I just sleep a few more times." But I didn't expect you to be able to weave dreams. ”
Phantom Wu showed one eye to look at him, and seeing that he was not annoyed, he slowly unfolded the leaves.
"I really underestimated you, and sure enough, ...... Hui Ming whispered something, Phantom Wu didn't hear clearly, but she understood that Hui Ming was saying that she was powerful, and couldn't help but stretch out the leaf and shake it, showing her pride.
Many of her first feelings were taught to her by Master, what Master made her understand, and what Master made her feel.
"Ahh
Phantom Wu came back to his senses and saw that it was her who was shouting, and even Ge Sheng looked at her.
When she thinks of Master, she is always distracted, after all...... She hadn't seen him in a long time, and she didn't know what Master was doing. She sighed silently, "Are you guys busy?"
Chang Jue wiped his hands and said, "I'm not busy, I'll be fine soon, why are you here?"
"Oh, I got some books for you. Phantom Wu looked in a trance, and stuffed the book into Changjue's arms.
Chang Jue took it in a hurry, but he was more concerned about the state of the phantom, how it seemed to be suddenly hit by frost.
"Wenshi Zhenjing", "Tongxuan Zhenjing", "Qingjing Jingjing", "Jade Emperor Jing", "Ziqing Zhixuanji"...... It's all Taoist texts. Ge Sheng came up and flipped through the books one by one.
"Daofa?" Chang Jue glanced at the books, then looked at Phantom Wu.
"Mortal cultivation of immortals begins with the study of Taoism, although you are no longer a mortal, but the foundation of cultivating spells is always these Taoism. Phantom Wu explained.
Ge Sheng also nodded on the side: "We also started practicing from the Daomen Xuanfa," he said while taking out the book, "These are the avenues that explain the laws of all things and pay attention to the laws of nature. Speaking of this, Ge Sheng showed a rare expression of sadness, but it made Phantom Wu laugh.
"The Book of Transformation is with you, right?" Phantom Wu looked at Ge Sheng.
"Well, here I am. There are also "Lao Tzu Zhongjing" and "Sanguan Jing" are all here with me. Ge Sheng touched his chin and thought for a moment, most of the classics such as Zhu Youshu, Zhai Jiao, Fu Gong, and Zhu Mantra were in his place.
"When he's done with the basics, you can show him those again. ”
"Okay, if you don't understand, you can ask me. Ge Sheng nodded in agreement, looking at Chang Jue very enthusiastically.
The protagonist of the discussion between the two looked confused, and then resigned himself to receiving a bunch of Taoist classics.
"What about the 'Participation in the Deed' and 'The Decree of the Ten Thousand Gods of Life and Double Cultivation'?" Ge Sheng asked suddenly.
"Well....... that's it, wait until Ah Jue finishes reading the other classics and then show him them. Phantom Wu thought about this question seriously for a moment, and then looked at Ge Sheng with a deep face: "You still have this type of book......
Ge Sheng was very calm: "It's all Taoist works, so I naturally want to study them." ”
"What are the results?" said Phantom Brown.
"It's so profound that it can't be understood by us. Ge Sheng's round face had a serious expression, revealing a bit of confusion and a little dissatisfaction with the shallowness of his cultivation.
Phantom Wu covered his mouth and smiled, and then patted Ge Sheng on the shoulder: "Don't be too yourself, you still need to lay a good foundation for cultivation, don't be in a hurry." It was quite a bit of a Hui Ming's old appearance, and then he turned to Chang Jue and continued to deepen: "It's not that you won't be allowed to read those advanced works, it's that you are still young, and you need to lay a good foundation, and when you read other classics, you will deeply understand what the three treasures of essence, qi and god are, and reach the realm of Void Extreme Tranquility, and then practice the art of collecting wars can be beneficial and harmless." ”
Ge Sheng heard the great truth of Phantom Wu and felt that it was very useful, so he immediately decided to practice diligently, and expressed infinite admiration for the advanced inner cultivation of Phantom Wu.
Although Chang Jue is younger than Ge Sheng, he is more sophisticated than Ge Sheng, a simple demon who grows in the valley, and his face is already red just by hearing what "the art of collecting war", and he has to pretend that he doesn't understand anything and listen to the teachings of Phantom Wu seriously, with a sad face.
Phantom Wu's heart has been amused by the different expressions of the two, and he has long forgotten the melancholy of the previous due to Huiming to the back of the clouds.
After finishing the class calmly, and having enough fun, he left the book and left.
Chang Jue watched her jump and jump away, and then rubbed her hot cheeks, her heart was much more settled, which could make her happy, and her shame seemed worth it, and it was not so difficult to accept.
He took a long breath, and as soon as he sat down, he saw Ge Sheng come over with a round face: "Why is your face so red?"
Chang Jue: "...... Let's dry it. ”
Ge Sheng took his arm and left: "Your breath is unstable, you must be uncertain, your face is red and hot, your breath is turbid, it seems that the book of illusion is still delivered correctly, come, come and study, I will teach you to meditate into the ......"
Changjue: "......"
