Volume 1 Learning the Tao Chapter 14 The Right Hand Is Alive, and the Left Hand Is Dead

At nightfall, Zhuang Yu rushed to the tea shop to follow Shi Xiaoke home, and occasionally made some delicious supper under the thatched stove outside the house, and gave the little girl a tooth sacrifice, although the food was simple, but it was very warm.

The days go by like this, except for the 100 houses on the left side of Changyou County, which is full of white paper carved windows and white couplets during the day, and at night it is brightly lit and full of people, but it is relatively quiet, without the hustle and bustle of the day.

Zhuang Yu feels that it is the day of the night, and the bustling streets on the right that belong to the daytime are all turned off and closed, and occasionally a few inns and wineries are open, so that it is convenient to return to the family later and have a place to live.

In the middle of the night, as soon as I entered the south gate, the houses on the left hand side were brightly lit, and I walked around by the thin moonlight, but I never crossed the middle line of the street. In recent days, there have been more yellow paper incense candles in the city, and street vendors are also carrying their burdens to sell, and there are many people buying them.

Zhuang Yu was very curious, but in the past few days, he has been busy, and gradually has the opportunity to come into contact with the quiet and abnormal house at night. From a distance, there was nothing unusual about the figure inside, but it didn't say anything, it was very cold, and its steps were stiff, as if it lacked the aura of a living person.

Recently, at night, many people took yellow paper incense candles and burned them in the opposite house at night, burning incense and praying to commemorate the deceased.

When sending objects through here, the young man always stared at the figure opposite, big and small, old and young, but it was too deserted, Zhuang Yu couldn't understand why there was a cold feeling when he was too close, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a living dead.

Zhuang Yu sat on the cold ground and kept looking at the other side, always feeling that something was wrong, and he had guessed that eight or nine would not be far from ten. The young man didn't know that when he was looking at the other side intently, a plain white shadow next to him also kept looking at him.

The boy was just about to move his buttocks, hold the snacks he bought in his arms, and go back to his cabin, when he found a middle-aged man with snow-white hair standing next to him, standing quietly and silently, looking at him with a stiff face.

This frightened Zhuang Yu, and the food in his arms fell to the ground.

"....../@#+*......" Zhuang Yu was speechless for a while, looking at the strange middle-aged man muttering to himself, his heart pounding.

"What's the matter? Dare to be so small? Do you have to do something wrong? Don't worry, I'm a human and not a ghost, or do you think I'm like a ghost?" The middle-aged man grinned, there was no doubt that the young man's performance just now must have regarded himself as some kind of ghost.

"Uh...... , I'm really sorry, I didn't think there was anyone around me just now, and suddenly like this, it's a bit too much, and I hope Haihan ......" Zhuang Yu stammered and replied, really frightened.

The white-haired middle-aged man gave up.

"Uncle is a bit of a face, it's also a citizen of this city, I don't think the uncle is dressed like ......," Zhuang Yu said tightly.

"Well, I don't usually move around, it's a private school gentleman in this Changyou City, and I don't know many people, so it's not strange...... said.

"Private school, dare to ask if it is near the bamboo building in the north of the city, I heard Mr. Li talk about it...... , what is Mr. ......'s surname?"

"Li ......" The middle-aged man didn't say much.

"Mr. Li is polite......" Zhuang Yu shouted, and hurriedly bowed.

The white-haired middle-aged man was curious about the teenager in front of him.

"As a teacher, educating hundreds of people, the merit is too great, and I am fortunate to meet Mr. Li for three lives. ”

Mr. Li, a white-haired private school, always feels that the young man is patting on the back of the year, and he feels that the yang is against the yin.

Sure enough.

"That gentleman, the private school still accepts children, I have a younger sister, she is still young, and she has reached the age of literacy......" Zhuang Yu said in a low voice.

I see.

"The children of Changyou County are fine, just two hours in the morning, not long, but almost no children are willing to study, very few...... Why are you, reading books is actually not much use. The middle-aged man said a little self-deprecatingly.

"How can it be, Mr. has no class, imparting knowledge, it's amazing, the tuition fee is ......"

"Don't charge money, just prepare your own morning meal, what about you, I see that you are also very young, can you talk like this, don't you come to study?"

"I, forget it, my sister can read, I have to work to earn money, support me and my sister, she can read more......" The boy replied.

"You can find Li Lao another day, and he will explain these ...... to you"

"Don't talk about that, you're sitting here to know why?" said Mr. Li, a private schoolman.

Zhuang Yu looked at it in amazement, he asked many people who were not clear and taboo.

"Presumably you should know about the mountain lord Li Jingsheng, do you think it's worth it?" The middle-aged man asked.

"Worth it," Zhuang Yu replied without thinking.

"Although I am not an immortal cultivator on the mountain, the merits made by the Lord of Li Mountain are immeasurable, although the divine soul is broken, I have to merge with Changyou Mountain, so I survived, and the entire Changyou County can be so prosperous. Maybe the people on the mountain think that Li Jingsheng is not worth it, and he has cut off the avenue and imprisoned here, and he can't do without half a step, but even if he is a monk on the mountain, he is also the power of my human race, and he is not worth it for the benefit of my human race. Mountaineering and cultivation should also cultivate the mind, both for creation, out of the sea of suffering in the world, to become a mountain person, but also to understand the suffering of our people, should not forget the roots. What's more, the merit is immeasurable, the mountain is not worth it, and the mountain is forgotten, but the sky is the proof, the avenue is inscribed, and the reincarnation of things will always be corresponding. ”

Don't ask about the future, but ask for peace of mind. The white-haired middle-aged man was silent for a long time, and after listening to the young man's words, he thought about it for a long time.

"Mr. Li, don't take it seriously, this is just some of my nonsense, everyone has their own right to think, no wonder others ......," Zhuang Yu added.

"Yes, you are still young but you have your own ideas, very good, you are a person in everything, you are a good person, and the same is true for cultivating your mind, and you can't fall behind at all. ”

"Well, you don't want to know why the house across from you is so lifeless, I'll tell you. The white-haired middle-aged man said one by one.

More than 100 years ago, the young Li Jingsheng sword slashed the Yuan infant demon Changyou, almost exhausted the aura of the body, burned the blood of the heart to kill the demon at the last moment, never devoured the soul of the demon dying counterattack, at that time there were a lot of onlookers on the mountain and under the mountain, the big demon struggled before he died, and the original surrounding landscape enchantment was broken, and after devouring about more than 1,000 people, he poured all his demon power and fought to the death with the genius Li Jingsheng. Li Jingsheng slashed the head of the big demon with his sword, shattered his golden pill, and won by luck, but was broken by the big demon Changyou.

The devoured souls of thousands of people turned into lonely souls and wild ghosts, unable to return to the body, Li Jingsheng's last sword not only shattered the Great Demon Jindan, but also destroyed the origin of a number of souls, which was incomplete, and it was difficult to enter the Pure Land of Reincarnation. Li Jingsheng even made a frightening decision, his broken soul merged with the entire Changyou Mountain, so that the remnant soul that was originally rushing indiscriminately had a trace of divinity, quieted down, and slowly returned to the body, but the soul was incomplete, after all, it was incomplete, and he barely had some spirituality, and became a living dead.

It has been the same for a hundred years, the soul has nowhere to go, it cannot be reincarnated, and if it becomes a remnant soul, it will be eaten by other demons and ghosts, so it is better to stay in the city and return to a peace.

When the young Li Jingsheng and Changyou mountains and rivers blended together, they said a sentence that made the hearts of the mountains and mountains like broken strings.

"The monk's cultivation of the heart, peace of mind is my hometown, and I, Li Jingsheng, deserve to be the "first person" under the mountain. ”

"I recommend Xuanyuan with my blood, and dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky. ”

"The road is like a sunny day, I walk my way, I come from the world, the Tao proves the common people, I Li Jingsheng, no complaints, no regrets, worthy of being a ......"

On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the heavy rain was majestic, the lightning and thunder roared, and the wind did not stop, which seemed to be sad for it......

Day crying.

Since then, Li Jingsheng has not made any movement, as if he has disappeared, but everyone knows that he stayed in Changyou County.

The fifth day of the fifth month of May is also remembered by everyone in Changyou County.

The white-haired middle-aged man told the story so eloquently, and it was inevitable that his expression was solemn.

The young man surnamed Zhuang listened very carefully, and he admired the young swordsmanship genius Li Jingsheng even more.

"Sir, what Master Li Shan has done is awe-inspiring, if the monks of my generation are so determined, now the world should be changed, and the human race should not be so weak, and it should not be in the nest. ”

"Good one, I came from the world, cultivated the Tao and proved the common people, and I have no regrets as a great hero. Zhuang Yu said.

"Don't you blame him for capturing the remnants of the soul and making the people in the city the living dead, so it is better to bury them in the ground as soon as possible?" asked the white-haired middle-aged man.

"How can Senior Li have such great merit? Life is hope, even if it is a living dead, rather than not being reincarnated, turning into a lonely ghost and a wild ghost and mutilating other living beings, I believe that they are somewhat divine, not far away from harming others, and unwilling to leave. Senior Li, the mountain master, must also be looking for a solution from time to time, and one day will come........." Zhuang Yu replied.

After hearing such a big thing, the young man thought about it for a long time, and the white-haired middle-aged man next to him didn't speak, and was a little quiet for a while, and the white moonlight shone on the white-haired middle-aged man's face, as if there was a faint sense of relief.

After sitting silently for a long time, Zhuang Yu got up and took out the remaining yellow paper incense candles in the bamboo basket on his back, lit the incense candle yellow paper, and for a while the flames danced, reflecting on the young man's face, extremely serious.

For these innocent beings, there is nothing wrong with them, only this world is wrong, and what is wrong is that those who have no power to defend themselves will be wiped out of their lives.

Zhuang Yu remembered fiercely in his heart, if there is such a day, I will also climb the mountain to practice in order to prove the common people.

The young man's words all fell into the ears of the white-haired middle-aged man next to him, Li Jingsheng, and he was very pleased.

"You burned all this, and you have to pay for it......"

"It's okay, they're all worth it, they're all unsung heroes, run a few more times and do more work, don't be afraid, after all, human life is greater than heaven......" The young man replied seriously.

Human life is greater than heaven? Li Jingsheng was very moved.

There is a good saying "human life is greater than the sky", simple teenagers are treated equally, and all living beings are equal. The white-haired middle-aged people love it more and more. I also pay attention to the fact that the teenager is always used to using his left hand when doing things, and he is not awkward at all.

It seems to be a left-handed person, which is very rare......
