Chapter Forty-Seven: The Road, Step by Step
Anyway, paper can't contain the fire, since the mission is a foregone conclusion, then sooner or later he will have to tear his face with the Buddha, Shen Fei simply came to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary, so that everyone in the world knows that the Taoist sect is going to preach in the world, and get the most believers in a short period of time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Before Shen Fei appeared, the Shushan Daoist Sect held the Shuzhong Mountain Range, the Penglai Daoist Sect held the East China Sea Island Group, the Demon Cult occupied the Kunlun Crypt, and the Buddhist Sect entrenched in the human world. The battle of beliefs had never arisen, and with Shen Fei's completion of his studies, all that would change completely.
The Fulai Inn has been overcrowded recently, and after the wife of the city lord of Ruyang City has chartered the entire inn, many wealthy businessmen have come by car in the starry night, and they naturally did not come for this small inn, but for the guests who lived in the inn - the man named Shen Fei.
If there's one thing that can catch the eyes of the owner, it's health. People live in the world, accept the turbid breath of the world, and with the aging of the body, the body gradually loses its use, which is something that no amount of money can change, Shen Fei's appearance provides them with an opportunity to change the status quo, and they dare not visit during the day because they are afraid of the power of Buddhism in the world.
It's a pity that even so, Shen Fei has never received any of them, and every day he ordered Lan'er to serve them tea and water outside the house, so that he could serve them, and in the middle of the night, he forcibly sent them off. Speaking of which, in order to let Shen Fei open the door, the visitors really competed their brains, and tried unreliable methods such as currying favor with Lan'er and asking Shen Fei about his hobbies, but none of them worked.
Shen Fei didn't open the door to make them understand that cultivating immortals by themselves is not a simple matter, and believing in Taoism is not a simple thing, and they need to have perseverance.
The so-called perseverance is a persistent heart, men need perseverance to chase women, men need perseverance to pursue the improvement of their careers, and men need perseverance to ask immortals. It is difficult for a man without perseverance to succeed, after Shen Fei went up the mountain, it took a whole year and a half before he officially worshipped the real person in charge of the sect as a teacher, and in this more than a year, if he didn't have a perseverance that did not admit defeat, he would have been unable to support it and went down the mountain.
Only by suffering hardship can we truly understand the preciousness of the future. Shen Fei just wanted them to understand this, although it was a bit excessive, but it had to be done.
Of course, there is another purpose of doing this, that is, to gather more and more people outside the foyer, so that the Fulai Inn can live in a Shuzhong immortal, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, spread more and more, and finally spread all over the world.
Therefore, there is a reason for not accepting them, and Shen Fei will not say this reason, even if it is to Nalan Ruoxue.
Ruoxue has been very depressed these days, after leaving Cuilanxuan angrily that night, Ruoxue has been depressed, what makes her depressed is why she didn't find Shen Fei's brother that night, why did Shen Fei's brother enter such a place to hide dirt and dirt, after Shen Fei's brother entered, wouldn't he also do the same thing as the people around him.
This series of questions has been lingering in Nalan Ruoxue's heart for a long, long time, and she wanted to ask several times, but she finally pressed it, and her curiosity was not because she was sensible, but because she was really afraid that the result of asking would be the one she didn't want to hear.
The same room is dark, in a dark room full of ambiguity and fragrance, Nalan Ruoxue feels that even a person with super concentration like Brother Shen Fei is very likely to be unable to withstand the temptation. So she really didn't dare to ask, although she didn't dare to ask, but she really wanted to ask, so she didn't even think about tea, couldn't eat, and her face was a little thin.
Her original face was a round goose egg face, which looked fleshy, and after being entangled in her heart, she immediately lost weight, and vaguely became a melon seed face, which faded three points of cuteness, and became two more points of beauty, and she looked even more beautiful. Even if he was wearing men's clothes, it was difficult to stop the natural elegance, and the guests who came to visit Shen Fei suddenly felt that they were fairies descending when they saw Nalan Ruoxue who came and went from time to time.
Ruoxue hated them very much, these people's clothes were similar to those seen in Cuilanxuan, thinking about the filthy scene that day, Ruoxue was sure that they must all be bad people.
Speaking of which, how to distinguish between good people and bad people is really a question, is it a bad person who does whatever he wants? To a certain extent, they just have more resources, so that they have more people and things to rely on, and they have greater right to choose, and they are not necessarily bad people; on the other hand, are the poor people good people, and it is not the same, the so-called poor people must have something to hate, most of the poor people have the ability to take one step forward, or even two steps, into the slightly richer class, but because of their own inferior nature, they have lost the opportunity to step on that step. Therefore, good and bad cannot be completely judged by the poor and rich, good people will probably stick to good for a lifetime, bad people will probably stick to bad for a lifetime, good people will have many opportunities to become bad, but bad people have few opportunities to become good.
However, in the eyes of Ruoxue now, these people who appeared in Cuilan Xuan were all hateful and outrageous. Ruoxue is very simple, and the more simple a person is, the easier it is to start from the subjective consciousness and define human nature as simple good and bad, which is obviously inaccurate, because everyone has their multifaceted nature.
Ruoxue frequently gets angry at the visitors, blasting them away, kicking the things they send, and even yelling, for which everyone has no choice but to consider themselves unlucky.
This lasted for ten days, and on the eleventh day, Shen Fei finally let Lan'er open the door and receive a guest who had come to visit. In the first sentence of the meeting, Shen Fei ordered him to take away all the things he brought, and in the second sentence, Shen Fei told him that he asked the immortal to ask for advice to know what the "Tao" was first, and then put on a posture of meditation on weekdays, let him do it together according to his own appearance, and told him to empty his mind and understand his heart, so after a long time, he asked him how he felt, and the man showed an expression of worship and kowtowed to Shen Fei repeatedly, Shen Fei nodded and said to him: Go. The man went away satisfied.
On the evening of the second day, Shen Fei opened the door for the second and third people, taught them the same postures, and instructed the same words.
On the evening of the third day, the first three people who had been taught gathered in a room and took the same pose to meditate and relax.
Shen Fei only taught them the posture of meditation and meditation, not the method of regulating internal breath, nothing more, which made them feel different from ordinary people, convinced of Shen Fei's words, and emptied their minds with the guidance of his words, feeling the changes in their bodies, although this was just a feeling.
Shen Fei just wanted to separate the most basic immortal application bit by bit, so that they could experience the immediate benefits they could get by believing in themselves, and only in this way could their faith be firm.
On the fourth day, Shen Fei invited five people into the house, including the wife of the city lord of Ruyang City, the wife of the city lord was indeed brought back to life from Shen Fei's hands, and the changes on her body bit by bit were like miracles, so her belief in Taoism was the most firm, and she would wait outside the door every day, even if she was always rejected by Shen Fei, she did not complain.
Shen Fei finally invited her into the door and taught her the method of meditation, and the city lord's wife was grateful, wept several times, and slowly told the people around her about the changes that had occurred in her. This subtly affected the mood of the people around them, making them worship and believe in Shen Fei and Taoism more.
Taoism emphasizes the unity of heaven and man and the pursuit of immortality, while Buddhism emphasizes self-cultivation, reincarnation, and future lives. Comparatively speaking, Daoism has obvious advantages in terms of giving benefits to people, but over the years, the immortals on Shu Mountain have been arrogant and disdain to contact with the human world, so Daozong only appears in legends.
Shen Fei went down the mountain to preach to break this situation, he accurately grasped the key points of the matter, sorted out a clear vein, and slowly spread out the road of his preaching, like a beautiful scroll, if he was allowed to develop, he would be able to achieve something in the near future.
In such a situation, Buddhism finally took action.
Almost overnight, all the visitors gathered outside the Fulai Inn disappeared, because a message came from the Supreme Lingyin Temple of the Buddha Sect, "Those who believe in foreign religions will not be protected by the Buddha." Almost overnight, the few believers that Shen Fei had worked so hard to accumulate disappeared without a trace, which naturally included, the day before, the wife of the city lord of Ruyang City, who swore that she would always believe in my way, Shen Fei could almost imagine that the lady of the city lord must have been bound at home by the city lord with strong means, and he had already expected that the resistance of the Buddha sect would come sooner or later, and he had thought of the next plan.
The two purposes of coming to Ruyang City have been fully achieved, and even exceeded, Shen Fei not only found the eyes of the first clan, but also discerned the power structure of the human world, and most importantly, spread his fame in the hearts of the human elites, which is enough. Shen Fei's goal has been achieved, and the next step is to leave Ruyang and go to the second stop of this trip to the kingdom of the people -- Jinling!
Therefore, on the night when all the visitors outside the door disappeared, Shen Fei took advantage of the night to come to the top floor of Cuilanxuan for the last time, entered through the window, and saw the owner of Cuilanxuan, who had been waiting there for a long time.
The curtain swayed in the wind, and the windows on the fourth floor of Cuilanxuan were rarely opened, as if they knew that a distinguished guest was about to come to the door today.
After Shen Fei entered, the window closed immediately, and the candlelight lit up, but the faint light could illuminate the hearts of him and Lord Xuan.
"Are you leaving?" Lord Xuan sat on the wide back chair like he had met for the first time, his elbows propped up the armrests on both sides of the chair, his chin crossed and his eyes looked at Shen Fei brightly. His pupils are the kind of double pupils that are close to those of cats, if you look closely, you can distinguish the layers hidden in them, after Shen Fei's arrival, Lord Xuan's performance can only be described as "calm, wise, and calm", Shen Fei knows that this is a man who is deeply hidden, and he also knows that Lord Xuan's status in Penglai Immortal Island is only afraid of being unusual, and the purpose of his stationing here is even more intriguing.
Born from the Penglai Immortal Island Star Family, the Lord of Cuilan Xuanxuan, he was the second person who left the deepest impression on Shen Fei after he entered Ruyang City. The first is the Pure Spirit Monk, and the second is the Xuan Lord. These two people have a trait, that is, calm, low-key, deeply hidden, and do not spit out.
Such a person, even if he doesn't say a word, even if he just looks at you calmly, can make you feel stressed.
"Can you tell me your real name!" Shen Fei looked at Lord Xuan equally calmly and smiled, "Before leaving!"
"You want to know?" Lord Xuan's eyes glowed.
"If you don't mind. Shen Fei smiled faintly.
"It's a pity I don't mind. ”
"Well, when I didn't say that. ”
"Where are you going?"
"Where am I going, can't the dignified Lord of Cuilan Xuan guess!"
"Do you entrust me to take care of the people with you?"
"Since you have entrusted Lord Xuan to take care of it, naturally you won't take it away with you. ”
"But she misses you so much. ”
"It's just a false feeling, and I entrusted Master Xuan to take care of Fang Ting because Fang Ting has qualities that others don't have, and if she just wants to be a prostitute, it's a bit condescending. ”
"Since she has extraordinary qualities, why don't you take it with you?"
"I don't like hypocritical people, even if I know that her hypocrisy is just a means of survival. ”
"But what if I insist on shoving her to you!"
"What do you mean?"
"I'm a businessman, how about we make a deal?"
"Something to do with Fang Ting?"
"It's related to Fang Ting. ”
"Tell me about it. ”
"My condition is that you take Fang Ting with you, and my advantage is that all the fiery red eyes that Cuilanxuan got from now on will be handed over to you?"
"Businessmen don't trade at a loss, but the conditions you put forward are obviously in my favor, how do you want me to trust you. ”
"All you have to do is say no or agree, and I don't care if you trust or not. ”
Looking at Lord Xuan's eyes, Shen Fei groaned, and thought for a long time: "You want to plant a spy next to me and keep an eye on me all the time?"
"Do you want to know my name?"
"It's not that you didn't want to say it. ”
"I changed my mind. ”
"Let's hear it. ”
"My name is Fang Shixu. ”
"Fang Shixu?" Shen Fei bit the word lightly, and his eyes suddenly widened, "You are also surnamed Fang?"
"Fang Ting is my daughter. Lord Xuan responded calmly.
