Chapter 16 Worship the saints as teachers

Wang Changsheng was always calm and steady, and it was not until Tianzhizi finished speaking that he spoke: "Such secret matters are very important, no wonder you want to find a person with a short life." ”

Tianzhizi said: "No matter how good the fortune-tellers in the Howling Demon Bear Clan are, it will be difficult for them to calculate you in the inferior interface, but if you have the opportunity to ascend to the upper realm, things will be very different." ”

Wang Changsheng was a little strange when he heard this, so he spoke: "Since this is the case, it is enough to choose only one person with poor qualifications who is unable to ascend, why do you have to choose a short-lived person with a strong evil spirit?"

Tianzhizi said: "You don't know this, poor qualifications are not completely without hope of enlightenment. The success or failure of cultivation is certainly related to innate qualifications and acquired diligence, but it also has a lot to do with one's blessings and chances. No one can say for sure what happened by chance, but even if a person with a little bit of evil spirit has a day when he lifts the sun and soars, it will be difficult to succeed because the thunder tribulation is too powerful. ”

After Tianzhizi finished speaking, Wang Changsheng asked: "The disciple originally thought that the evil qi was just a portable evil qi attracted by killing too much, but it seems that it is not just the case when I heard the words of the Immortal Venerable, can I ask the Immortal Venerable to solve the doubts?"

Tianzhizi replied: "Just as we can't easily enter this realm, this world will also prevent the creatures in the realm from leaving, and the manifestation is lightning strikes, which are also heavenly tribulations. If you do something that destroys the development of this world, such as killing too much, you will also attract thunderstorms. The evil qi is the symbol marked on the body of the creatures in the realm of this heaven and earth, for example, the more you kill, the heavier the evil qi, and the greater the probability and intensity of the future to attract the evil thunder tribulation. ”

Wang Changsheng said: "Could it be that this world is actually wise, so that such a means to maintain the balance of the interface has been produced?"

Tianzhizi shook his head and said, "Definitely." There are thousands of interfaces under the sky, and those interfaces that do not produce this rule will eventually die out due to serious loss of vitality or too much damage to the balance. ”

Wang Changsheng nodded when he heard this, and didn't say anything again, sitting quietly and not knowing what to think about. After a while, Tianzhizi said: "I have told the truth about all the causes and effects of this matter, are you still willing to bear this matter?"

Wang Changsheng replied: "There is a big matter here, and I also ask the Immortal Venerable to find another talent." "The temptation of cultivation is very great, but I didn't expect Wang Changsheng to refuse.

If Wang Changsheng agreed, it was Wang Changsheng's own choice, Tianzhizi would not intervene and would not ask too much, Wang Changsheng might really waste his life here. Wang Changsheng rejected this matter, which was not only unexpected by Tianzhizi but also what Tianzhizi wanted to hear, but whether he could look up to Wang Changsheng naturally had to ask the reason to know. So Tianzhizi asked, "Are you worried about your lack of ability?"

Wang Changsheng replied: "Since I have been chosen to come here, it first shows that I have the ability to accomplish things here, so why worry?"

Tianzhizi said again: "That's unwilling?"

Wang Changsheng replied: "Don't hide it from Immortal Venerable, I am willing to contribute to our great loyalty to the country because I love my country. Life is precious and fleeting, and the safety of the Terrans in the Upper Realm does not seem to me enough for me to pay for this. In addition, I went to the Immortal Venerable to seek the method of immortality, but the reason why I was chosen is that I am a person with a short life, and it is impossible for the water moon mirror flower to be able to achieve immortality in this way. Since I can't ask for it, I don't want it, but I naturally don't want to. ”

Tianzhizi said again: "I have another matter, would you like to hear it?"

Wang Changsheng replied: "Listen to me. ”

Tianzhizi said: "I am an ascetic, and I didn't want to accept disciples. However, because I am the eldest disciple of Tianzun and the only disciple, there are still some names in the upper realm, so there are many people who want to worship me as a teacher. For a long time, there are always some people or things that cannot be easily refused, and it is inevitable that mundane things will be annoying, so I set a rule, that is, only one disciple will be accepted under the door, so that I have my first disciple Peng Dehai. This Peng Dehai is not good at words, but he is very talented and clever and studious, and he is a good disciple. Although I have been practicing for a long time, I am only good at retreating, and the other methods are only a little familiar. As Peng Dehai's cultivation gradually improved, he asked me for advice several times, but I couldn't teach anything else except the Fa. Inevitably, I misled people's children, so I had to introduce him to the master's door. In this way, I have accepted eleven disciples one after another, and later my master has added eleven more disciples. I have always accepted disciples who are all highly gifted, but unfortunately none of them have understood the subtleties and profundity of the retreat, so I wondered if it would be better to find a successor with less qualified qualifications. Then Wang Changsheng, are you willing to worship under my door?"

Hearing this, Wang Changsheng knelt on the ground, made a bowing ceremony to the master, and said, "Disciple Wang Changsheng pays a visit to the master. Grateful for the grace of the teacher's teaching, the disciple Wang Changsheng swore here: but there is still a breath and will never change to others. ”

Tianzhizi was a little moved when he heard this, and said, "From this time on, you will be my Tianzhizi's disciple." ”

However, it was said that after Tianzhizi accepted Wang Changsheng, he thought about it and said to Wang Changsheng: "Since you have entered my door, you should be given the Taoist name." TodayΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

When Wang Changsheng heard this, he hurriedly said, "The disciple has something to do. ”

After Tianzhizi nodded, Wang Changsheng said: "Master, when I was young, I was captured by the barbarians of the enemy country and became a slave who raised horses. Later, a great Taoist real person rescued me, not only taught me martial arts, but also gave me his Taoist name 'Changsheng' as his name, and the kindness of the real person is like recreation. Now that the real person has gone immortal, the king of kindness Changsheng does not dare to forget it, and please give me the word 'immortal' as the name of the Tao. ”

Tianzhizi sighed and said: "Although it does not conform to the order of the generations of this sect, I will give you the word 'longevity' when I read that your gratitude is commendable." ”

Wang Changsheng bowed again: "Thank you for the Taoist name." ”

Tianzhizi continued: "Those who practice in my generation should cultivate the Tao, build virtue, and do more good deeds, and cultivate one's self-cultivation and not create more sins. Now that he has the number of the road, he will pass down the door rules together today. ”

Wang Changsheng replied: "Please pass down the rules of the sect from the master, and the disciples must remember them." ”

Tianzhizi said: "The door rules have been handed down. ”

Wang Changsheng pondered the preface of Tianzhizi, but he realized something, and replied: "The disciple will definitely regard 'building virtue and cultivating nature' as a golden rule. ”

Tianzhizi nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "According to the rules of this sect, you are just getting started, I should give you a magic weapon of this sect." It's just that the master is just a phantom in this realm, and there is nothing else, so I will give you the jade box that your master used to hold the materials for the formation when he set up the array in this realm. When you have learned the method of sacrifice, you can take it for your own use. As Tianzhizi was talking, a snow-white jade box about three inches square floated out of nowhere, and when Tianzhizi finished speaking, the jade box fell right in front of Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng did not pick up the jade box, but first picked up a black gourd on his waist, and said: "The disciple should present the gift, and now this is a gift from Master Yuanjue, and I will give it to the master." ”

Tianzhizi nodded, and stretched out his hand to reach out the black gourd to the palm of his hand. I saw Tianzhizi muttering to the gourd and didn't know what to say, and after speaking, he threw the gourd back to Wang Changsheng, and said: "The things in the gourd are rare to cherish, and they will help you a lot, but the chance depends on your own after all." Put this item away with the jade box, and wait for you to ascend to the upper realm in the future and then pay homage to the master. That's it for today, and tomorrow I'll come back to preach your own law. ”

Wang Changsheng was moved to accept the two items, and then got up and prepared to leave according to Tianzhizi's wishes. As soon as he took a step, the things in front of him immediately changed greatly, and he returned to Master Yuanjue in one step.

As soon as Wang Changsheng left, Peng Dehai appeared in front of Tianzhizi's thatched hut and hurriedly wanted to go inside. But at this time, Han Guyu and He Xin Yuner appeared at the same time, grabbed Peng Dehai and took him away.

In a secluded place, the three of them appeared at the same time, and Peng Dehai said: "Why did the junior brother and junior sister pull me?"

Han Guyu saluted: "Senior brother forgive your sins! dare to ask why senior brother is in a hurry to go to senior brother?"

Peng Dehai said with a slightly anxious look: "We originally wanted to hide the news that Wang Changsheng is here, but Senior Brother has clearly known it now. You see that this Wang Changsheng came out of the senior brother's thatched hut but never left this mountain, thinking that the senior brother has already taken over this matter and accepted Wang Changsheng as a disciple. ”

After saying this, Peng Dehai cast another spell to leave in a hurry, but was stopped by Han Guyu and said, "That's it, so what?"

Peng Dehai hurriedly said: "Is the senior brother confused? This matter is so risky, how can I let the senior brother take such a risk? Anyway, I don't want to! Now I have to let the senior brother retract the decision." ”

Han Guyu smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Brother Peng is confused! Senior Brother is a saint I teach, and his words are like golden rules." Now that Senior Brother is going, do you want Senior Brother to go back on his word and not believe in his words?"

Hearing this, Peng Dehai's face changed greatly, he gasped and gave Han Guyu a deep salute, "Thank you for reminding you." What the senior brother said is very true, now that senior brother, I will go to find that Wang Changsheng, and I will definitely let him give up worshiping under the senior brother's door. ”

Unexpectedly, Han Guyu stopped again: "Senior Brother Peng is going to go, not to mention that Senior Brother will definitely be angry, just to say that this kind of evil thing that is similar to cutting off people's cultivation is a big violation of the teachings of this sect." ”

Peng Dehai was unmoved and said: "I can't care so much, Peng Dehai is willing to be punished by death." ”

At this time, Xin Yun'er, who had not spoken, said, "Senior Brother Peng refuses to let Senior Brother be the one who disobeys, but does he want that Wang Changsheng to do the disobedient thing?"

Peng Dehai was stunned on the spot when he heard this, and he never dared to go further.

Han Guyu took the opportunity to persuade again: "That Wang Changsheng's qualifications are poor, and in my opinion, he may not be able to sense the vitality of heaven and earth and enter the door of cultivation. If that king is immortal and cannot practice, then he can change to someone else. Senior Brother Peng doesn't have to be anxious, just watch things develop. ”

Peng Dehai smiled rarely, and said angrily: "If you two don't talk about this kind of thing earlier, I will be anxious and worried in vain." ”

Early in the morning, Wang Changsheng visited Tianzhizi again, and Tianzhizi explained the way of cultivation in detail from the beginning. In the end, Tianzhizi concluded: "Therefore, sensing and absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth for one's own use is the first step and the first difficulty in cultivation. Whether or not you can get through this difficult time varies from person to person, and the time is also long, but generally speaking, those with good talents will be faster, and those with poor natural qualifications will be slower. If you don't have good qualifications, your induction will be slower, so don't be anxious at that time, even if you don't end up cultivating and entering the path, you have to look at it. There is a transparent cylinder in the valley, which is the gap left by the Fengyuan Great Array, and the inside is full of the Yuan Root absorbing and gathering the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, although you can't absorb it, it helps to sense, so practice here. ”

After all, I don't know if Wang Changsheng can practice and enter the Tao, and I will see the next decomposition after the future.
