Chapter 249: How to repay virtue
The giant panda with its head up could see that the pair of claws were not grasping at itself.
The male lion had already noticed it, but it had been greatly consumed in the hand-to-hand combat with the giant panda, and was scratched and bloodied, and its face was spent, and it tried to dodge but was unable to do so, and was lifted up by the eagle with both claws, carried it into the air, and then let go and fell down.
If this happened a few times, the lion howled a few times, his breath was sluggish, and he fainted directly.
The giant panda arched his hand upward: "The younger generation is polite, I don't know which senior is coming, thank you for the rescue." ”
The eagle fell, stepped on the lion, shook its huge wings, retracted it, looked at the giant panda, and said: "Little friends don't have to be polite, the enemy of the enemy is a friend." The old man, the chief of the Akon tribe, Akenser is also. ”
Hua Lanting's illusioned giant panda was stunned for a moment, and Chi asked: "Am I not mistaken, my predecessor is this, and he was taken away?"
Arkense, who had transformed into an eagle in Hua Lan Ting's mind, replied, "Little friend is smart. That's what it means. The old man just gave in for the time being, this guy was self-righteous, but he didn't succeed. “
"Hmph, in terms of Taoism, he, an elder who does not enter the Holy Mountain, is still a little younger, and it would be almost the same if the Three Holy Venerables came in person. ”
Hua Lanting hesitated: "The senior's move must have a deep meaning, and the junior dares to ask, since you have this ability, why bother to let the Aken tribe be used as a spear by the Three Holy Mountains, so that the clansmen will be damaged, and you will be the enemy of my Immortal Continent?"
Arkenser smiled calmly: "Good question." Listen to what you say, and you have an understanding of the holy places and the affairs of the tribes. Come on, let's talk about it, and let me solve your doubts. ”
After a pause, Akenser's voice deepened: "My Akenser tribe should have such a catastrophe, the old man's words are a little bigger, and it is helpless to pretend to be taken away." ”
"It is an indisputable reality that the sacred mountain is large and the tribe is declining. As the patriarch of the clan and the head of the clan, I am the only one who can hide his ability and have a little strength to resist for some reasons, and the rest of the clan are ordinary. ”
"The gap is too big, and if the Holy Land tribe wants to turn over, they can only endure and wait. Fighting to turn over is the mission and dream that most of the generations have been pursuing, but it is not something that can be done in a short time. ”
"When they want to take control of the tribe by taking away me, although I can kill them with my strength at that time, then I will be exposed, and I will bring disaster to myself and my tribe in an instant. ”
"In addition, the old man has calculated that this change is an opportunity for my clan to change its fate, and I will keep this remnant body to observe what the Three Holy Mountains want to do, so as to find a good opportunity to pave a way for the younger children of the tribe. ”
"As for the loss of the clan you mentioned, sacrifice is inevitable in order to achieve the goal, as long as it is worthwhile. For this reason, it is not a pity for the old man to die, they also have to pay, this is the fate of this generation of tribal warriors like Abu Dhabi, and they must accept it without complaint. ”
Hua Lanting was silent, and said for a while: "I can understand your old man's suffering, that is, these apes and tribal warriors, including our Xianzhou monks, are all living beings, but they have to kill each other due to the selfish desires of some people, how innocent. ”
Arkenser said indifferently: "Child, you are still young, and you are in the stage of hard work. When you have experienced more, you will know that the so-called life and death, survival, poverty, wealth and poverty, virtuous and unscrupulous, reputation, hunger, thirst, cold and heat, and so on are all short-lived appearances and illusions formed by the operation of destiny and the change of things. ”
"Just like my eagle body, his lion body, your panda body, since childhood, just like the world children play games when peek-a-boo, eagles catch chickens, just temporary illusions and roles, not only after a while to change back to the body, and when you have played many times, clear rules and gameplay of the game, you will know that you are sometimes an eagle, sometimes a chicken, the eagle will appear, the chicken mother will protect you, catch and run away will not bring you real panic, you will have nothing to fear, but immerse yourself in it, to feel and experience. ”
"Whether it is an eagle, a lion, or a panda, whether it is strong enough to dominate others, or whether it is enslaved and oppressed, it is all the result of karma and harmony. ”
"For example, if you like someone, you will be touched by certain people and certain things, and it is difficult to say that it is because of this person and this thing, but because you will be attracted to such a person and will be moved by such a thing. Sooner or later, these will happen. Everything is one. ”
So, on the matter of the eagle catching the chicken, you have a fixed opinion. ”
"A little bit bigger. Ordinary people are no more than 36,000 days old, and although they are somewhat afraid of death, most people do not resent it, because it is inevitable, and since it is inevitable, even the discussion itself does not have much meaning. ”
Hua Lanting pondered for a moment and said, "The so-called people don't stop the water because of the flowing water. Having said that, I still fear death when it comes to it. I am determined to cultivate the path and seek immortality, to pursue the immortality of consciousness and soul, and to enter a higher form of life, but there will still be times when I am afraid and cower. ”
Arkenser smiled slightly: "In the eyes of my clan, whether you ask or not, you probably can't escape the cycle of life, the difference is how much you can actively control and be aware of." ”
"In the rolling red dust, let's go further, if you can soberly experience many reincarnations, you should understand that the so-called life and death are just a sleep, and when you wake up, you will devote yourself to another game. In this way, you will not be too concerned about the fall of any people, but at most, you will have heartfelt compassion for the suffering caused by the coercion of foreign desires. ”
"There is a saying: Viewing the heavens and the earth, all things, and living directly with the six remains. When you know that the heavens and the earth work, and that you can keep all things in your breast, you will find that your body is a temporary dwelling that you can live in today and move out tomorrow. You will know that things will come like this, and they will also go like this, there is nothing to do, it is better to accept it with peace of mind, and just sincerely devote yourself to it every time you play a vote seriously. ”
Hua Lanting thought about it again, but still couldn't be completely relieved: "Perhaps, what you said may also be the true meaning of my Dao Sect cultivation." However, at my age, I still can't fully accept the change, I have to struggle and work hard, I have to choose and fight, and there will inevitably be anxiety and pain. ”
Arkenser laughed loudly: "Haha, it's true. It's okay, kid, it's really okay. ”
"The old man has not lived for a lifetime. The reason why the old man has such feelings and has some hidden abilities is not that I can really see through them, but that most of the leaders of my clan have a kind of inheritance, similar to the reincarnation of Buddhism - the souls and insights of the most radicals of the past dynasties can be continued and superimposed on me. ”
"Even the older you get, the more you accumulate it, the more you accumulate. But after going through several reincarnations, I know that history is always similar, things always repeat, and I know that things always change between boom and bust, and that's normal. ”
"I have a lot of experience, so I can maintain a normal and pleasant state to see the alternation of all things to a certain extent. I don't want to get it so much, and I'm not so afraid of losing, if I have it, if I don't have it, if it's gone, let's take the wish and come again. ”
And you don't have that accumulation, it's normal to have compassion and suffering. All the places that make you feel tangled and painful are your consciousness, but also your wisdom and compassion. That is the yin of yin and yang, the place covered by shadows, the projection of ontological consciousness, which can be called ignorance. ”
Hua Lanting muttered to himself: "The Buddhist Heart Sutra has clouds: there is no ignorance, there is no end to ignorance, even no old death, no old age and death, no suffering to gather and destroy the Tao, no wisdom and no obstacles, so that there is no gain. ”
He suddenly felt something and asked, "Shadows, ignorance? In a sense, it can be seen as the adverse reaction of our emotions such as anxiety, anger, and resentment to accidental and uncontrollable emotions.
Arkenser's eagle face showed an appreciative look: "The boy has a wise root. The study of the sacred mountain, in general, is that they are good at using the negative energy of the ignorant person. ”
"I don't know much about Buddhism, but I also know that you Taoists pay attention to spirit. Jing represents matter, Qi represents energy, and God represents consciousness. Controlling Qi with Divine Qi and Controlling Essence with Qi – your consciousness influences your energy and drives your energy to act on the surrounding matter. ”
"Knowing this, although your cultivation is not too high, the influence of ordinary meditation on you is very limited. ”
Hua Lanting said again: "If you are relieved, there is no fear and resentment, but you still have no relief and stay out of the matter?"
Akenser said: "On the one hand, the old man has accepted several generations of reincarnation, and in the end he has not achieved his own penance, and the realm cannot reach the point of detachment. On the other hand, the Holy Land was originally the home of various primitive tribes, and the Holy Mountain was a foreign invader, and as a member of it, how could I allow my homeland and people to be bullied and trampled on. ”
"In the old saying, it's often the second half of the sentence that matters. If you don't know, you'll be taken to the ditch. We know that we are old and forgetful, but we don't know that the latter sentence is: only forget lovesickness. I'm old, hehe, I've forgotten everything, and I still miss you very much. How nice, how beautiful......"
"And repaying grievances with virtue depends on the situation and time, what did Kong Xiansheng say?
Hua Lanting suddenly thought of something: "Major, you seem to have been taken away, where is that consciousness?"
Arkenser laughed and scolded: "You kid will get to the bottom of it, since I have appeared, I am not afraid that you will know, you might as well guess?"
Hua Lanting thought slightly: "Tribal staff?"
"Yes, yes. Akenser replied: "The tribal holy weapon is not only a symbol of power, but also a treasure, guarded by the gods and souls of the patriarchs of the past dynasties, and only the three holy lords of the holy mountain can see through and surrender." ”
Hua Lanting said: "I have one last question, if it's inconvenient, you don't have to answer." ”
Arkenser said: "The old man knows what you have to ask, and there is nothing inconvenient, I will tell you what I know." You don't have to worry, the old man doesn't ask you to promise anything in return. What you are willing to do in the future, you will naturally do it, if you are afraid of difficulties. People have fixed opinions, and things have fixed numbers. ”
Hua Lanting didn't say anything, when it came to this, they knew each other's hearts, he was favored by others, and he would know how to repay his kindness.
Arkenser continued, "You have to ask, but why did the Three Holy Mountains allow my clan to come to the Immortal Continent through the barrier of the Two Realms of the Devil's Continental Bridge on Long Island?"
Hua Lan Ting's head.
Arkenser: "Like a trick, it's very mysterious and incomprehensible to keep it in the dark, and once you say it, that's it. ”
