Lin Ze simply and quickly walked around the library pavilion, and after making sure that Xiao Jin had all scanned it, he proposed to go back and settle down first, as soon as Lin Ze opened his mouth, the disciple immediately agreed, he was about to be driven crazy by Hu Hai, and he just wanted to send people out quickly.

Under the leadership of that disciple, the group stayed in a larger Taoist courtyard, which was much smaller than the Ganquan Palace and the Confucian Mansion.

Those guards are camped outside in tents, that is, because of Hu Hai's special status, they can live in the courtyard.

According to a Taoist boy who brought them here, although the Dao Palace is slowly expanding every year, there are too many people who come to the Dao Palace, and a considerable number of people can only dig a cave nearby to live in order to seek Taoism.

Fortunately, after the unification of Daqin, the trade routes were very active, and many caravans were able to come safely every year, bringing all kinds of rich daily necessities, and most of the people who came here to seek Taoism were children of wealthy families, and they brought a lot of materials with them.

In this way, the Dao Palace can develop steadily, otherwise it would have been extinct long ago, no matter how penance, it is necessary to eat and sleep, Kunlun is relatively scarce in materials, and there is no inflow of foreign materials, it will definitely not work.

The official admission of disciples in the Dao Palace is a ten-year period, and then thirty years is a generation, most of them are qualified children brought back from the outside world by some older generations, whether it is a child brought by the predecessors or a person who is sent to seek the Tao, they will first observe the mind as a Taoist child or a miscellaneous servant.

This is also the largest source of labor in the Dao Palace, and the Dao Palace does not really do not eat fireworks, whether you can become a disciple depends on whether the predecessors can see it, so every year's disciples are more out of the children brought by the seniors.

Lin Ze took a hard breath, the oxygen on the big plateau, slowly running the breathing method, refining his internal organs, recently he felt that the internal organs were a little slow to refine, probably because the earth treasure he brought before had been used up,

The second is that the later the internal organs are becoming more and more difficult to temper, I looked at my physical fitness, it has been eight months, and the overall strength has reached 20,000 catties, and there is no longer that feeling of rapid progress, every day is a little bit of tempering, and every day I improve more than ten or twenty catties of strength, according to this progress, it may take two years to reach the third grade, Lin Ze feels a little slow.

Xiao Jin couldn't stand it anymore: "The host, please face yourself, excessive blind confidence will only be the source of hindrance to progress." ”

Lin Ze was speechless, it seemed that it was true that as a salted fish, he should be satisfied if he could be faster than others, after all, Hu Hai had only reached the second grade.

When Hu Hai broke through the second grade before, he was full of confidence, and he didn't give up after sparring with him, and he was beaten up by fat before he completely believed that Lin Ze had broken through the limit, and secretly made up his mind again, and thought about how to beat him back in the future.

As soon as Lin Ze finished practicing, he had just cleaned up the sanitation problem, and a little Taoist boy ran over to him and said, "This son, the palace master and the elders invite you to come over and discuss the matter." ”

Lin Ze's whole person was blindfolded, so he asked me to talk about the Tao and said to the little Dao Tong: "Is this boy looking for the wrong person, how can the palace master and elders of the Dao Palace invite me to go over and discuss the Dao?"

Xiao Daotong scratched his head, and then suddenly said: "You are Lin Zegongzi, the palace master explained your name, it should be right." ”

Lin Ze sneered in his heart, "Heh, it looks like a lie?" The preparation is quite complete, and even my name has been inquired, isn't it Hu Hai who is a ghost? Look at how I play tricks on you." ”

So he said solemnly and solemnly: "Are you sure that the palace master and the elders want to discuss with me?"

I saw Xiao Daotong nodding desperately, he clearly remembered that the palace master ordered him so.

When Lin Ze saw it, he hummed, it was really a lie, and he couldn't even speak, so he pretended to be disdainful and said: "Your palace master and elders are so big, they actually spread the word to me at will, go back and let them come to invite you in person." ”

Xiao Daotong was stunned, what's the matter with you, the palace master and the elders ask you to talk about it, give you more face, it should be a blessing that you have cultivated for many lifetimes, and you actually put up a shelf and let the palace master come to invite, hum, it is so excessive, I must tell the palace master.

Before leaving, he said: "Young Master Lin Ze, the invitation of the palace master and the elder is not an ordinary opportunity, I advise you to cherish it." ”

Lin Ze is finally a liar, those micro-businesses and pyramid schemes in his previous life, which one didn't say so, you will regret it if you missed this fortune. So he smiled mysteriously: "You also tell them that if they don't come to listen to me, they will regret it for the rest of their lives." ”

Xiao Daotong snorted and ran back.

On the other side, after the little Taoist boy went back, he told Lin Ze's bad attitude again, and complained viciously: "Palace master, that Lin Ze is too ignorant of promotion, and he actually made a lot of nonsense, saying that the palace master will regret it for life if he doesn't listen to his preaching." ”

But he concealed what he said first.

Xiao Daotong's imaginary palace master was angry and then taught Lin Ze a lesson, but the palace master's expression was a little solemn: "Did he really say that?"

Xiao Daotong thought that the palace master didn't believe it, and nodded fiercely: "That's what he said, and he had a terrible expression." ”

The Dao Palace Palace Master turned to the surrounding elders and said, "Could it be that he is the reincarnation of my Dao Sect senior?"

One of the elders said, "The palace master is in the realm of the grandmaster, where do you need guidance? I think that the reincarnated person may be talking nonsense at all. ”

Another elder retorted, "Maybe this senior was more than the Grandmaster Realm before he was reincarnated, and it was also possible for the Divine Soul Realm or to be infinitely close to the Heavenly and Human Realm. ”

The other elders also joined the discussion, on the one hand, they felt that Lin Ze was just pretending to be sophisticated and talking nonsense, and on the other hand, they felt that Lin Ze was a real master outside the world, and he had the style of a master.

In the end, it was Elder Xuan Ming who said: "What is there to fight for, so the freshman is there, don't you know if you go and see it, do you think that a little face is more important than seeking the Tao." Lead the way, boy, and let us meet him. ”

The palace master also nodded: "For seekers like us, there are not so many scruples. ”

Xiao Daotong was a little stunned, originally thought that he would be furious when he said this, and even punished that person, but he didn't expect that the palace master would really go to visit with the elders.

While hurriedly leading the way, he was faintly uneasy in his heart, whether Lin Ze would sue him in front of the elders.

Soon the palace master and his party arrived at the door of the small courtyard where Lin Ze and they lived, and Xiao Daotong hurriedly knocked on the door and shouted: "Lin Ze Daoyou, the palace master and the elders have come to visit you." ”

Lin Ze, who was resting in the courtyard, was furious in his heart: This liar is endless, and he dares to let Xiao Daotong bring someone to the door and bully people who don't know the Dao Palace, right, I, Lin Ze, will play with you and see what tricks you play.

So he shouted, "Stop, what is the way?"

This sentence immediately confused the Dao Palace Palace Master and his party who were about to enter the door, this master was very curious, did he talk about the Tao before they met? It was also the most troublesome way to ask.

As for what is the Tao, there is no conclusion from ancient times to the present, and in the end it is the Taoist saint who made a summary, and left it in the mantra 5,000 words, as a hand-me-down classic, and this passage is that when every seeker asks what the Tao is, the ancestors will let them read this scripture in order to understand something.

As the palace master of the Dao Palace, of course, he was familiar with this classic, and after a little thought, he said in a deep voice: "Dao is Tao, very Tao." ”

Lin Ze just shook his head: "This is the Dao of the Dao Saint, and I am asking about your Dao." ”

"We are still seeking, but we have not attained the Tao, so we cannot speak."

"What are you asking for?"

The palace master of the Dao Palace fell into silence for a while, but Lin Ze became proud, talk about pretending to be forced, brother dump you a few streets, there was a great god in the previous life, and the most effective way to deal with sales is not to debate with him what he understands.

Whether it is a product or a concept, people who do this business, in addition to being a new newcomer, must have formed a very rigorous set of statements, you have to forcibly argue with him, sooner or later fall into his words trap, and finally be led by the nose.

What is really useful is that you don't accept the recruitment, no matter what people tell you, you just say your own set, and you will be an army, and others will have nothing to do with you.

For example, if someone asks you do you know blockchain, you ask him in turn, do you know Amway?

Lin Ze doesn't care what the swindlers outside are trying to do, aren't you in the name of arguing about the Tao? Then I'll talk to you about your Tao, don't worry, no matter what you say, you are all wrong.

I saw that after a long time, the palace master of the Dao Palace looked around at the elders around him, and said with a little self-deprecation: "I don't know, please ask Mr. for advice." ”

When Lin Ze heard this, he gasped, his attitude was so low, and he was sincere, this liar's plot is not small, I am sure that he is coming for Hu Hai, definitely not for me, I have to find a way to fool them away, and then remind Hu Hai more, don't be fooled.

So Lin Ze coughed, "The cycle of heavenly principles, going with the flow, is for the way of heaven, seven emotions and six desires, everything must be fought for humanity, the road is simple, what you want is the way of heaven or humanity, or what you want is the unity of heaven and man." ”

Although the voice is not loud, it has a special taste when it falls into the ears of everyone in the Taoist Palace who has been seeking the Tao for many years, just like many people are still studying high school math formulas and laws, and you suddenly throw out a Lagrange formula, although people don't know what you say, they think you are so awesome.

The palace master and elders of the Dao Palace felt this way, so they no longer cared about the door in front of them, and directly pushed the door in: "May I ask sir, what is the way of heaven and what is humanity?"

Lin Ze was about to get angry, I haven't called you in yet, is it polite, take a closer look,, the leader is really the Dao Palace Master he has seen, isn't the smiling old man next to him the elder who entertained Hu Hai before, what the boy said for a long time is actually true, and now it's a big deal.

I only heard the master of the Dao Palace bow bow: "Since Mr. is the reincarnation of Daxian, he must have unique opinions, so I take the liberty to ask Mr. to solve my doubts, and the Dao Palace will be grateful afterwards." ”

Lin Ze set off a huge wave in his heart, and blurted out: "You actually know... Suddenly realized something, quickly covered his mouth, and pretended to be calm: "You guys sit down first." ”

When Xuan Ming heard this, he looked at the other elders proudly, seeing that I was not wrong, he said that he was the reincarnation of Daxian, and one by one he still didn't believe me.

The palace master smiled kindly and said: "Although Mr. has solved the mystery in the womb and opened Su Hui, he has forgotten that the three sects have all had the reincarnation of their predecessors, and the Dao Palace, as one of the most important Dao systems of the Dao Sect, naturally has its own identification methods. ”

Lin Ze breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that I was not the only one who crossed over, they thought I was the predecessor of the Taoist Sect, so they came over and asked, to put it bluntly, it is to take advantage of the reincarnation of the ancestors to grow up, and take out more dry goods, then I have to discuss with them today (suddenly) Dao (leisure) a thing or two.

Lin Ze racked his brains, forming a set of statements that had just corresponded, first pretending to be profound, looking around the people in the Dao Palace,

said: "In the previous life, I had a lot of connections with the Taoist Sect, since you are all great virtues of the Taoist Sect, I will say a few more words, but each has its own opportunities, whether you can gain it or not, it is a personal creation." ”

Well, let's say okay first, I think you are also honest people, I will sell this crutch to you, who can buy it, I don't guarantee it, don't look back and say that my crutch is not good, my crutch is a serious crutch, I don't know if you are serious or not.

The palace master of the Dao Palace immediately responded: "Poor Dao is upright, and I swear by the thirty-fourth generation of the Dao Palace, no matter what Mr. preaches, I promise not to implicate Mr." ”

The other elders also nodded yes, you can't have a bad understanding yourself, blame the ancestors for not saying well, the ancestors preached to you is your blessing, those ungrateful things that don't know the good and bad are not done by the people of my generation who seek the Tao.

Seeing that everyone had no opinions, Lin Ze slowly spoke: "The way of heaven is the way of affection and ruthlessness, the way of heaven is affectionate, Ze is surrounded by all things, the way of heaven is ruthless, all things are used as dogs, those who cultivate the way of heaven need to have a transcendent heart, study the laws of nature, do not participate, do not destroy, and finally cultivate the Taishang forgetfulness and transcendence from the world, this is also the Tao of the Taoist saints back then, if it were not for Yin Xi's bitter pleading, there may not be 5,000 words of "Tao Te Ching" handed down.

Humanity is more complicated, humanity can also be called the way of the human heart, hidden in people's obsessions, some people take the relief of the common people as the way, the consummation of merit and the like is the Tao, some people take killing as the way, and after killing tens of millions of people to get the Tao, each has a difference, why does it seem that humanity is simpler, but in fact, it is not the case, humanity is easier to fall into the devil's way. ”

Lin Ze took a sip of water and continued: "And what can ultimately make us transcendent is the unity of heaven and man, both of which are indispensable, and there is a transcendent choice to experience a red dust, and in the rolling red dust, we need to choose to go to a pure place to cultivate, to experience the human heart with the way of heaven, and to chase the way of heaven with humanity." ”

Seeing everyone's frowns, Lin Ze couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, and was about to say, when you go back and slowly comprehend, it was Elder Xuanming who stood up, his face was dark and uncertain, and he muttered, "Heavenly Dao, humane, is this the case?"

Scared Lin Ze, I'll go, I won't go crazy, looking at the faces of other people, I panicked, I told you to fool, let's play big now.

Xuan Ming suddenly cried and laughed, which made Lin Ze even more worried, everyone in the Dao Palace wanted to stop him, but he waved his hand to stop him, and finally laughed: "I think I realized, I hate not to see Mr. sooner." ”

After speaking, he sat cross-legged, and a momentum rose to the sky, and at the same time responded to the celestial phenomenon, and the sunny sky suddenly became black clouds, and thunder rolled.

Emperor Qin, who was reading a book on the other side, frowned: "Someone in the Dao Palace has broken through the Grandmaster, forget it, let him go." ”

The Dao Palace Shouzheng Palace Master hurriedly let the people around him disperse and protect Elder Xuan Ming from being disturbed, only to see that the momentum on Xuan Ming's body was getting bigger and bigger, and he directly forced the others out of the courtyard, Lin Ze was even more dumbfounded, not knowing what was going on.

In the end, everyone seemed to hear the sound of the chicken breaking its shell, reaching the sky, accompanied by a long roar from Xuan Ming: "Today, Fang knows that the dynasty will die at night." Then he smashed the dark clouds above him with a punch.

In the end, Xuan Ming fell in front of Lin Ze and bowed to the end: "Mr. Xie's kindness to preach, Xuan Ming is difficult to repay, and I am willing to be Mr. Protector." The surrounding people gathered around and congratulated Xuan Ming on breaking through to the Grandmaster.

Lin Ze was stunned, did he turn out that he was so powerful? A few words can make others break through the grandmaster, but fortunately, Lin Ze still has points in his heart, knowing that people are only one foot away from the door, and he doesn't dare to take credit, and he doesn't dare to easily put a grandmaster who doesn't know the details by his side.

Pretended to say indifferently: "This is your chance, it has little to do with me, but there is no need to protect the Dao, it would be good if there was some genius treasure for me." ”

Everyone suddenly felt as if something called Jiecao was broken, and it was said that it was a good person who was a master of the Tao and a reincarnated sage, but you actually mentioned such a vulgar thing, it was really unbearable to look at, unbearable to hear.

However, the eyes of the Dao Palace Palace Master lit up, he was worthy of being a great sage of the Dao Sect, and he did not take credit at all, and even refused the contribution of a grandmaster casually, even at the expense of self-defilement, he was really a master.

If Lin Ze knew his thoughts, he would probably have laughed out loud.
