Chapter Ninety-Seven: Hopewell (Part II)

After a not-so-serious discussion, this matter did not completely disappear from Lu Mu's heart, and he always unconsciously thought that there might be a good way.

Although Lu Mu still remembered it in his heart, he didn't care as much about it as before, and as time passed, this kind of indifference became more and more obvious.

Later, Lu Mu rarely thought of it, at most, when he was defeated by mutual competition with Yu Yan, he would feel that there seemed to be such a thing without opinion, he just laughed at it, and couldn't help but think that maybe his ideas were too naïve.

Thought is a wonderful thing, it will not appear easily, nor will it disappear for no reason, once it has appeared, it will leave a little shadow, hidden somewhere in the bottom of the heart.

You won't see it easily, or even think about it forever, but it's there, and as long as it is touched a little bit, it will appear in front of you in its original form, in its original form.

It's like a seed buried in the ground, you may not be aware of it, but as long as there is even a little water to nourish it, it will take root and sprout quickly, so that you can no longer ignore its existence. A lot of times the mind is like that, stronger than that.

There is also a strange thing, it happens all the time, and it will bring you unexpected results, but you can rarely explain it, just like the Tao, it is clearly there, you can perceive it, but you can't see it.

When you desperately want to get something or understand something, you often can't get it, but you don't want to give up easily, so your hope will reach the strongest level.

No matter if you are a god or a demon, a fairy or a monster, no matter how difficult you encounter, you are so physically and mentally exhausted and discouraged.

As long as you are in the Three Realms and Six Realms, there is a medicine that can cure all your wounds, both physical and mental, and that medicine is time.

Time is such a powerful thing, it can always do earth-shattering things with the most inconsequential action, and so is your so-called hope.

As time passes, you may still have the hope in your heart that is not fulfilled, but it is not very strong, at least not all the time, and the interval between them will get longer and longer.

Finally, in an uneventful time, this thing or thing suddenly comes to you, and you often don't remember it a moment ago.

Although such things are rare, they happen a lot often, especially in front of children, no one can tell why, just like no one can say Qingdao.

It is undeniable that when people who have experienced such a thing, most of them will attribute it to their own hopes, and most people will think that God heard his heart and helped him realize his wishes, and God will also think that his own thoughts are working.

Lu Mu experienced such a thing, he thought that his thoughts would stop, whether it was himself or Yu Yan, they thought that this was something impossible, and the result of some gaps Lu Mu was unwilling to accept it, then the result was no end, originally Lu Mu thought like this.

However, one day, when Yun Zhongfei's cultivation finally reached another stage, the elders couldn't avoid looking at the final result, and this matter finally fell to Lu Mu and Lu Yan.

As for the reason, it is very simple, Yun Zhongfei is the last of their age to reach this stage, and among the disciples who are slightly lower than him, there are only Yan Yan and Lu Mu, so naturally they want to try.

The cultivation methods of the Rui people are not only different from the immortals, but also the sayings are different, simply put, they are not as detailed as the immortals, such as the heavenly immortals, the earth immortals, the ghost immortals, or the real people, the Da Luo Jin Immortals.

There are only two stages of cultivation of the Rui people, whether it is to join a famous teacher or work their own, from the beginning to the end with a little spiritual power in the body, there is only one watershed in the middle, which is commonly known as "leaving salary".

And Yu Yan privately likes to call it "deconsolidation", which means much more straightforward, removing the meaning of imprisonment, as for why he says this, there is a certain reason.

Cultivation is never a simple thing, whether you have a master or not, whether your master is strict or not, before you reach the salary, all cultivation is suffering, and most of these sufferings are unspeakable, whether physical or mental.

The so-called practice is not tightly understood the Tao, and the most important thing before leaving the salary is the improvement of strength, which is manifested in the offensive and defensive moves, and most of the time is spent on this at the beginning.

Yu Yuanwu once said that this is the most important thing for cultivators, especially the Rui people, only with a good body can they have the opportunity to better improve their cultivation, gather more spiritual power, and better protect themselves and help others at critical moments, which is the root of everything.

Yu Yuanchu said this, and let them do it, and for thousands of years, they didn't know how many times they did it just with a simple kick.

At first, Lu Mu and Lu Yan didn't understand what the master's words meant, all they knew was endless boredom and pain, the only thing they were fortunate about was that they could clearly feel that their spiritual power was increasing little by little, and many actions that they couldn't do before could be gradually completed, and finally displayed perfectly.

Like all the apprentices in the world, they are satisfied with their results, but they hate the process, and they live in this contradiction all day long.

Originally, it was understandable to endure hardships, and most of the pain of Mu Mu and Yan came from the "great love" that Master and everyone gave to them, and the other brothers and sisters were also very concerned, but their attitude towards them was natural.

And they are extra concerned about them, always spying on them all the time, and they have done almost twice as much practice as other senior brothers, and the reason is very simple, it is because they are the people chosen by Nuwa Niangniang.

Normally, this would be the best blessing for them, and like all the chosen ones in the legends, each with abilities and talents.

It's a pity that such a thing didn't happen to them, their qualifications really didn't have anything outstanding, of course, they weren't very bad, although they were only slightly higher in the middle of all cultivators, but they were still very powerful compared to ordinary people, but how to compare them was not what they said.

It was only after a long time that they learned that this was the main reason why the master would treat them well, and at first Lu Yan instinctively felt that the master was not just like this to them, and all the senior brothers were the same before they reached their salaries.

This is the biggest factor that they can regain their balance, so that they have lived willingly for thousands of years, but unfortunately the truth is always cruel, when Yu Yan knew that his senior brothers had been treated like that, his heart suddenly stopped beating, if he hadn't had enough concentration, he would definitely faint.

After understanding everything, Yu Yan was naturally unconvinced, he aggressively questioned Yu Yuanwu, asking why this was the case, Lu Mu also had some thoughts in his heart, so he was pulled together.

Yu Yuanwu seemed to have mastered everything, and said unhurriedly: "Because you are the ones chosen by Nuwa Niangniang." This faint sentence instantly extinguished all of Yan Yan's momentum, and there was not even a trace of it.

Before Yu Mu could react, he was pulled out again, and at that moment all Lu Mu could see was a figure that was no different from usual, if it was counted from the beginning, this matter had been brewing for at least tens of thousands of years.

According to the general situation, how to make some movement, the truth is indeed so abrupt that it ended, as if it had never happened, and then Lu Mu asked Yu Yan what he felt at that time, and Yu Yan said that it was that feeling, and there was no follow-up.

I didn't know what that feeling was, but they didn't have anything to lose, and all the pain ended when they reached the end of their salary.

At least no one persecuted them anymore, in fact, there was no need to persecute them at all, everything became natural, and all the previous suffering was not in vain, so that the time for them to enter the salary was reduced a lot.

The so-called salary is not a specific state, it is not like a god to reach a certain level that can be immortal, and the Rui people do not deliberately pursue these things.

Leaving the salary is more like Buddhist enlightenment to them, there is no specific manifestation, but when it arrives, it is coming, you know that you have arrived, and others know that it has arrived.

From then on, you don't have to have any teacher to teach you, you don't have to search for it, and at that moment you have the nature to know everything, and it's up to you how much you can know, and how far you can go.

Everything that is done before leaving the salary is for it, and for those who have not reached this level it is an end, and for those who have reached it is only a beginning.

The most practical manifestation is that if Lu Mu reaches the salary, he and Yu Yuanwu are in the same state, it doesn't matter if they are masters and apprentices, they know everything, they know differently, and what they can give each other is nothing.

As for why Lu Mu is still called Yu Yuan without Master, it's just because they are human beings, that's it, in general, everything hasn't changed, everything has changed again, just like Yin and Yang itself, the closest time to the two is when they look farthest.

The essence of the salary is also from the relationship between master and apprentice, and its original meaning is that it will no longer be passed on from generation to generation, and that's it.

Generally speaking, whether a cultivator has reached the state of leaving the salary or not, whether it is others or oneself, can clearly see that feeling as if it is its own, I don't know what the reason is, but you can judge it accurately.

It is precisely because of this that there is no need for any proof of whether or not to leave the salary, but Yu Yuanchu is different, when each of his apprentices reaches the salary, he has asked other people to try it.

As for the reason, it is also very simple, although there is no specific performance of the salary, but within a short period of time after the salary, it will change in essence, whether it is physical condition or cultivation, it will get qualitative changes, which is also the reason why Yu Yuanchu has to test.

A person's cultivation is not only in the improvement of strength, Yu Yanyuan also said such things to Yu Mu and Yu Yan, and told them that this is also the main reason why Nuwa Niangniang chose them, not in force but in virtue, not upward virtue, but downward virtue, Lu Mu They never understood what this sentence meant, and Yu Yuan did not say it all the time.

For all the people who practice the Rui clan, their practice is not only to improve their understanding of the ultimate meaning of the Tao, but more importantly, it is also a responsibility.

From the moment they followed Nuwa Niangniang to this place, they knew in their hearts that their existence was never independent, and although it had not yet been revealed, one day they would have to shoulder their responsibilities.

For Lu Mu and Lu Yan, this responsibility is even more important, everything they have done from the beginning to the present, maybe it is for this, this is something they can't avoid, and it is also their willingness, but they haven't really understood it yet.
