Knowing that he would not be able to go back for a while, Lu Lan's heart was inevitably a little lost, he was reluctant to give up his parents, after all, they were old.

But when I think about it, why not wait for myself to become stronger, take my parents over and let them live a long life together.

After figuring it out, Lu Lan suddenly knelt on the ground on both knees, and said to Qin Lao with a firm face: "Please also ask Qin Lao to teach me to practice." ”

He is just an ordinary person, without a sect, alone, relying on his own words, he doesn't know when he will become a monk, and now, the only one who can help him is Qin Lao.

"You get up first," Qin Lao looked at Lu Lan who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "Do you really want to cultivate?"

Lu Lan stood up and nodded, his face was firm, he had imagined that one day he would be able to soar through the clouds and fog and enjoy the world, since he had come to the world of cultivating immortals, he would definitely have to practice and become a monk.

"Okay, I'll teach you" Qin Lao paused, and then said: "Master leads the door, cultivation depends on individuals, I can teach you to cultivate, so that you can become a real monk, but the road in the future has to rely on you to walk, I can't shelter you forever." ”

The reason why he agreed to Lu Lan was actually his own selfishness, Lu Lan was born supreme, possessed the Heavenly God Dao Body, and his future prospects were unlimited, and there was cause and effect between himself and him, perhaps he taught him to practice and led him into the world of monks.

"Master!" Lu Lan shouted respectfully, seeing that Qin Lao agreed, his heart was extremely excited, the image that Qin Lao brought to him was unfathomable, with such a master to guide him, he would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

It's just that Lu Lan thinks too simply, although the path of cultivation is full of opportunities, but it is often accompanied by danger to life, and in the cultivation world, countless people fall every year because of the snatching of resources.

"Don't be too happy, it's very difficult for you to really become a monk," Qin Lao said as he looked at Lu Lan with an excited face.

"Why," Lu Lan was a little puzzled.

"I just checked your body and found that your bone age is twenty-three years old, and you have missed the golden age of cultivation. ”

Qin Lao explained: "Another is that you are the legendary Heavenly God Dao Body, according to the records of ancient books, this kind of physique only appeared in the Immortal Gu period, it is an invincible physique, but it has never appeared in later generations, because this world is no longer suitable for this kind of physique cultivation, this physique is difficult to feel the existence of the Dao, so if you want to really step into the world of monks, it is several times more difficult than ordinary people." ”

Listening to Qin Lao's words, Lu Lan was a little disappointed, but he was immediately full of confidence, after all, he could cultivate, since it was several times more difficult than others, then he would take longer to practice than others.

"Please also ask Elder Qin to teach me to practice" Lu Lan began to consult Elder Qin, he didn't know anything about the so-called cultivation at all.

"Cultivation is a process of transforming from an ordinary person to a transcendent abnormality, and cultivation must pay equal attention to one's own body and spirit, so the path of cultivation that monks have been exploring for a long time is along the direction of "being both wonderful in form and spirit, and in harmony with the Tao". Qin Lao paused, and then said: "Therefore, the shedding of mortal wombs is the first step into cultivation, and we call this realm the realm of metamorphosis mortal. ”

"Shed the mortal womb, transform the mortal realm" Lu Lan thought for a moment after hearing this, and then asked, "What about the other realms?"

"Do you listen to the silence in this forest" Elder Qin didn't answer his question, but instead asked a question that had nothing to do with cultivation.

"The tiger roars and the ape cries, intermittently" Lu Lan was a little puzzled why Qin Lao asked this, but when he saw Qin Lao looking at him, he opened his mouth to reply.

"Wrong, it's silent" Qin Lao looked up at the sky again and said, "What do you think of the air around you?"

Lu Lan looked up at the sky and said, "Fresh and refreshing, refreshing and refreshing." ”

"No, it's filthy" Qin Lao looked at Lu Lan and said, "Even our bodies are the same. ”

"You...... What do you mean by this," Lu Lan asked with some puzzlement.

Qin Lao was very indifferent, like a master outside the world, and continued to ask, "What do you think is a person?"

"What can a person be, it is naturally a human being!"

"No, no, no, let me ask you again, do you know what the Tao is" Qin Lao asked calmly.

"Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things. ”

"You're just one-sided" Qin Lao denied: "All things are one, everything in the world is the Tao, the tree is the Tao, the air is the Tao, and the people are the Tao." ”

"Man is the Word...... You're not joking, are you?" Lu Lan was shocked.

"In the future, you will understand that this flower, a grass, and a tree are all Tao. ”

"You...... Can you put it bluntly, I feel like I'm listening to a book from heaven, and although I understand the literal meaning, I don't understand the deeper meaning at all. ”

Where Qin Lao sat down, he smiled faintly: "Today we don't talk about this, what I want to say is that there are all things in heaven and earth, and all things are Tao, and our human body is the same, we can't see anything, but it contains endless 'Tao', just like there are so many things in heaven and earth, the seemingly small body, but it contains countless 'Tao', constantly discovering these Tao, discovering the 'new self' This is the so-called cultivation." ”

Looking at Lu Lan's expression that seemed to understand whether he understood or not, Qin Lao asked with a smile, "Do you know what the Tao is now?" ”

"It seems...... Seems to understand a little. ”

"Okay, let's understand it slowly in the future, now I'm going to tell you what it is, and the cultivation of the world starts here. ”

"Do you think the snake molting belongs to the new life or the original self" Qin Lao looked at Lu Lan and asked calmly.

"Of course, it's still the same self. ”

"No" Qin Lao shook his head, and then continued to ask: "A dead tree grows buds again, is it a new life, or is it the original self." ”

"Of course it's a freshman," Lu Lan was a little surprised.

"That's right, every transformation of everything in the world is a new life, butterflies turn into butterflies, sunrise and sunset, and the old skin on the body is a new life. ”

"Old Qin, what you said is too mysterious, what do you want to tell me?"

Elder Qin didn't blame Lu Lan for interrupting him, and continued to ask, "How old do you think I am." ”

"It looks like it should be almost a hundred years old" Lu Lan was a little unsure, because cultivators live a long life.

"I'm over 5,000 years old. ”

"What" Lu Lan was a little surprised, because he had never thought that people could live so long, although he was a cultivator, but in his cognition, only immortals could live for so long.

"Hehe, don't be so surprised, in the Immortal Ancient Period, there was endless immortality and ignorance between heaven and earth, and monks were immortal, but now, monks can live up to 10,000 years" Qin Lao explained, and then asked: "Do you think I am the new me or the old me every day." ”

Lu Lan scratched his head and looked at Qin Lao, he really couldn't answer.

"In fact, the beginning of a new day is a new life, shedding the old self and becoming the new self, which is what I want to say that the new life is the transformation of the ordinary. ”
