Riding the crane in the nine skies, the red dust does not know the immortal distance
Inside the Taihe Palace.
"Poor Dao intends to take Yi'an out for a trip, I don't know what the emperor wants?" Wang Yue said to Chongyu with a smile.
"Sumire is still young, why don't Master Wang wait a few more years?" Chongyu hesitated, his own child lost his mother when he was young, and now he has only been reunited with him for two years, and he has become the prince, so he shouldn't go out.
"The matter here is related to me, and I don't hide it from the emperor, but I really have something to ask Yi'an, and I will send it back at that time. Wang Yue said in a deep voice, he thought that he would not touch the world, but karma is still inescapable, and the more he wants to dodge, the more he will come to the door.
Only then did he react, a good cycle of three tribulations, this is the statement of Heavenly Dao to himself through Zhang Qijing's spirit, if he stays in this realm again, the calamity is coming, there is no solution, no matter how he deduces, what he sees is always blurred, and it is difficult to see the truth through the veil.
But Wang Yue is not an ordinary person in the end, he has his own plans in his heart, he is prepared for the arrival of this catastrophe, as early as two years ago, the unsealing made Tiandao aware of his existence, which made him have to speed up his pace.
"Master, where are we going?" Fang Jin asked with some excitement, he had long wanted to go out, but he was always confined to the palace for various reasons.
"How about going to find the double envoy and letting you take revenge with your own hands?" Wang Yue said, maybe this matter can make his apprentice really calm down.
"But Master, aren't the whereabouts of those envoys unknown, and even you can't figure out where they are?" Fang Jin wondered.
"They are located in Qingzhou, and they knew about it a month ago. Wang Yue said that the double envoy was originally left by him, but in the past two years, he has not been covered by something, and he can't deduce it anyway, until a month ago.
With a gesture of hand, two white cranes fell from the clouds and crawled in front of Wang Yue.
"Master, shall we ride a crane?" Fang Jin curiously circled around the white crane three times, this white crane was also gentle, let him caress it, gently spread its wings, it was five or six meters in size, and Fang Jin was so frightened that Fang Jin hurriedly retreated.
Wang Yue flew and landed on the back of the crane, glanced at him and said, "Why, if you want to walk, you can be satisfied as a teacher." ”
"No, no, no, Yi'er listens to the master, it's just that Yinzhou and Qingzhou are far away, and it takes more than half a month to travel day and night, can this crane really fly for so long?" Fang Jin jumped and rode on the crane's back.
"Traveling to the eight wildernesses and the four seas, returning to the Central Plains of Kyushu at dusk. Wang Yue said softly, and the two white cranes spread their wings and waved, riding the wind and soaring into the nine skies.
Fang Jin lay tightly on the crane's back, for fear of being blown down by the wind, looking at the ground farther and farther away, the huge palace became no more than the size of a palm, and the entire imperial city was in full view.
"Sit upright! What kind of posture is this!" Wang Yue said sharply.
Fang Jin had to let go of the hand holding the crane's neck tremblingly when he heard this, only to find that there was no strong wind in his imagination at all, it was flat and stable, only the gentle breeze was blowing, and the white clouds and mist were close in front of him, and he could reach out and touch it, and he was relaxed and happy for a while, he never thought that he would one day be in the clouds, and see the mountains and rivers at a glance.
"If you are successful in cultivation, you can't go anywhere in the wilderness, fairyland ghost realms, each with its own style, this is just a mortal realm. Wang Yue said indifferently, where is this kind of scene worthy of amazement in his eyes.
"Then Master, why are you still in this realm?"
"Although there is great freedom in cultivation, there is also great terror, the three flowers of the immortal path fall, and the five phases of the saints decline, alas, don't talk about this, you will know in the future. Wang Yue seemed to remember something, and he had always been calm and calm, but his face was also solemn.
Fang Jin saw that Wang Yue didn't want to say more, and didn't ask anymore, at this time, the white crane under the seat waved its wings and soared again, breaking through the white clouds at once, the sea of clouds under him was churning, the morning sun was dazzling in the distance, and there was nothing between thousands of miles.
"Yi An, do you know why today's teacher killed those people with his own hands?"
"They are not honest officials, they are corrupt and pervert the law, and they should be killed. Fang Jin replied calmly.
"Throughout the ages, there are few traitorous ministers in any dynasty, but they are the ministers of a dynasty, although they are greedy, although they are traitorous, they do not hinder the society, as long as they are not excessive, the emperor also turns a blind eye. Wang Yue smiled.
"Then why did the master make a move?" Fang Jin was puzzled.
"Because they have insulted Taoism, all schools of thought are based on self-cultivation and benefit, in the final analysis, they can't get rid of humanity, they are born as teachers and Taoists, not to mention how he taught, just these people are under the banner of Taoism, but they have such a style, what is the difference between insulting me in person?" Wang Yue smiled.
"Then why did the master resign from the post of national teacher again?"
"Yueguo devalues Confucianism, but after the teacher came, Taoism arose in the middle of the court, the two religions competed, and the Taoists advocated inaction, but in the hands of these people, it became the reins of dancing power. ”
"Shizun didn't want to get involved, so he resigned from the national teacher and asked his father to depose the hypocrisy. Fang Jin suddenly realized.
"Yi'an, for the sake of the teacher, and ask you, are you really willing to be the pole of humanity, a lifetime of honor, to embark on the path of the misty immortals, to seek the truth? If you are unwilling, the teacher will not force you, answer truthfully, don't go against your heart. Wang Yue asked solemnly.
"Yi An doesn't know the art of power, doesn't know people's hearts, and has no attachment to the throne, just wants to be free for a lifetime, and doesn't think so much about the rest. Fang Jin thought for a while and replied, even if he was made the crown prince, he still had a dreamlike feeling, which was not real at all, but he had been locked up in the palace, which made him feel quite uncomfortable.
"Okay, well, from today on, you are my true disciple of Beichen Jun, you like the clouds, love freedom, as a teacher, I will give you the Taoist name Yun Yizi, and you can be called a king when you are successful in your practice. Wang Yue said with a smile, Fang Jin has a pure heart, outstanding talent, just a little polishing is a piece of beautiful jade, how unhappy, how not to be happy.
"Beichen-kun, Master's Dao number, why don't you mention it?"
"How can mortals be qualified to know the number of the teacher, if you hesitate for half a minute today, you and I are the master and apprentice. ”
Thousands of miles away in half a day, the crane fell on Lianyun Mountain, but Wang Yue couldn't help frowning, and the qi that had been clear just now disappeared the moment he set foot in Lianyun Mountain.
Fang Jin saw that Wang Yue's face was displeased, and asked aloud, "What's wrong, Master?"
"It's a step too late, they're not here anymore. Wang Yue closed his eyes and thought, who could take the double envoy away without knowing it, and create the illusion that the double envoy was still here?
"Well, in that case, let's let it go for now. Although Wang Yue said so, he was inexplicably anxious in his heart, he was about to race against time, but something went wrong, and he forcibly calmed his mind, he knew that this was the impact of the approaching catastrophe, destroying the mood of the person who should be robbed, if he couldn't be calm, he would inevitably be full of demons.
"Yi'er, your martial arts are only half a step away from the realm of heaven and man, but do you know why your teacher doesn't let you ascend to immortality with martial arts?" Wang Yue asked from a different point of view.
"I don't know. ”
"Ordinary martial arts, no matter how profound the internal strength is, no matter how strong the external strength is, it is always limited by the mortal body, even if it achieves heaven and man, what can it do if it ascends to the immortal, this is the biggest ceiling, if there is no other method, this life stops here. Wang Yue said, he always looked down on the martial arts of mortals in his heart.
"The real Taoist, turning over the mountains and seas, calling for wind and rain, and sprinkling beans into soldiers, does it rely on these martial arts internal forces? You were born in this world, and you are envious of those martial artists when you see the ability of those martial artists, and you are not to blame for being a teacher, but since you are my disciple, you must understand that this martial arts is just a side door, so don't be distracted by it. ”
"The disciple understood. ”
"A pill can make ordinary people have a deep inner element, strong flesh, but so what, you can kill it, you can live for a hundred years, in the end, you still can't jump out of the water, vainly trying to turn into a dragon, isn't it ridiculous, although we and other cultivators also have calamities, but the Dao body does not need to suffer from the marrow of the mortal, when you become a Dancheng, take revenge, and take you out of this world as a teacher. ”
Cultivators only need to become a Dan to ascend to the immortal, far faster and simpler than the martial artist, but the qualification requirements are very high, and although the martial artist has a low threshold, but there is no such talent as Yu Zihan, the immortal is simply delusional, Fang Jin is a good candidate for cultivation, under the teaching of Wang Yue, Cheng Dan is not Erer, when the time comes, you only need to take back the yin and yang spirit in the body of the double envoy, you can really leave this world.
Wang Yue saw that Fang Jin wanted to speak and stopped, and his heart became irritable again, "If you have any questions, just say it, don't swallow it." ”
"Can the disciple leave this world with his friends?" Fang Jin still thought about Xiao Shu in his heart, even though two years had passed, he had never forgotten this childhood friend.
"Does he have a heavenly realm, or is he already a Dan?"
"The disciple doesn't know. Fang Jin shook his head, there was no news for two years, he didn't even know whether Xiao Shu was dead or alive now, but he still had thoughts in his heart.
“...... If you want him to die, you can try. Wang Yue was a little speechless, the first time he heard that someone had to bring someone with him to cross the catastrophe and ascend to the immortal, not to mention whether that person could withstand the heavenly tribulation, the pressure when crossing the border alone was enough to make any martial artist who had not reached the realm of heaven and man or a cultivator under Cheng Dan be shattered and his soul annihilated.
"Master, can we come back after we leave this realm?" Fang Jin asked, holding on to the last bit of hope.
"No, the mundane realm is not only this realm, it is like a sky full of stars, innumerable, immeasurable, as a teacher, when he first came here, he just chose at will, once he left, how can you find it?" Wang Yue knew that Fang Jin couldn't let go of his friends in his heart, but the Taoist was never lonely, even if he was reluctant, after a hundred years, his relatives and friends were left with only graves, so what could he do.
"Then I'll wait until he is in the realm of heaven and man!" Fang Jin changed his tone and said firmly, ignoring Wang Yue's helpless expression.
"If he can't arrive, what will you do?" Wang Yue looked at Fang Jin with a smile.
"That disciple will keep waiting, if he doesn't reach the heavens, the disciple won't become a Dan!"
"The highest lifespan of a mortal is no more than 100 years, but you accompany him and miss the best time to practice, are you willing to do it?"
"Master has always said not to go against the heart, the disciple only has this one friend, even if it is worth accompanying him for a hundred years, if it really can't become a Dan because of this, it is probably the disciple who has no relationship with the Tao, and it is difficult to enter the immortal path, this is the disciple's original intention. Fang Jin said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"That's it, the path of cultivation is also the focus of the state, since you have this intention, as a teacher, I will not persuade you, and you can do it yourself. Wang Yue sighed and said, the cultivator is going against the sky, if you can't follow your heart, how can you break through the demon barrier, but you are worthy of your heart, but where will you put the teacher, the disaster for the teacher itself is approaching, how can you wait for a hundred years?
If he doesn't become a Dan, no matter how high Fang Jin's qualifications are, he is just a mortal fetus, but he just can't let go of Xiao Shu, his mother is no longer alive, and his only relative is the emperor who is high above, and he has only seen him for two years, maybe Chongyu has family affection for him, but Fang Jin has always been very uncomfortable with his sudden father.
What really worries him, in addition to revenge, is only Xiao Shu left, and there are constant things, how can he meditate and practice, how can he leave with peace of mind.
The two of them had their own hearts and minds, and they took the crane home.
