Chapter Twenty-Eight: Self-Discipline Awakening
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Self-Discipline Awakening
Sometimes it's really simple to change yourself, it's nothing more than making a decision and then executing it thoroughly. But it is also very difficult, because the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change. So more people are talking better than singing, and the result is even more ugly than before.
The essence of greed is the excessive pursuit of material things that do not belong to oneself, and laziness is a reason to make oneself find too many excuses. If you want to change the nature of greed, you can only increase the principle of being a man and stick to the bottom line of being a man. The most important thing is to make yourself understand that if you get something that doesn't belong to you, you will also lose something that belongs to you.
How greedy do you want to be? Then ask what you want to lose, how much you want to get something that doesn't belong to you, how easy it is to lose another thing that belongs to you. So, before you are greedy, think again.
And the lazy heart makes itself understand one thing, the real laziness is to finish the future struggle in advance. You can be lazy, but you have to be lazy to get out of the way. For example, Zhuge Liang was very lazy and didn't want to make arrows, so he had a grass boat to borrow arrows. Then he was too lazy to use manual transportation of grain and grass, so there was a Trojan horse cattle.
Especially the grass boat borrowing arrows, this matter is equivalent to Zhuge Liang looking for Cao Cao and saying:
"Cao thief, give me 100,000 feather arrows quickly, otherwise Zhou Yu will kill me."
As a result, Cao Cao really gave it, but this method of giving was to borrow arrows with his head, not with his mouth alone. Otherwise, Zhuge Liang really said that, Cao Cao would definitely only applaud Zhou Yu's idea!
So it's not that you can't be lazy, but you have to understand that you have to use another better way to solve your own problems. You can't just say that you can't make that excuse when you have a problem. That will only make me always find excuses not to let myself break through, to complete tasks, and solve difficulties. Earthlings always say: Winners always find a way, and losers always find excuses. Now I also think that smart lazy people always find a way, and only stupid lazy people always make excuses.
Once you understand this, you need to prove whether you can do it with practical actions. In the words I've heard before: let the actions match your words. This is my next code of conduct, I am responsible for what I have said, the same sentence, before you say it, you are its master, after you say it, you are its servant.
Xiaoqian: "You have changed, you have become a lot more thorough."
I just breathed a sigh of relief, but I heard what Xiaoqian said to me, which made me smile faintly and said, "You have also changed and become a lot kinder."
Xiao Qian: "Come on, you have already reached the halfway point of the Asking Heart Level, as long as you continue to walk, you will definitely be able to successfully break through to the Awakening Stage."
Ghosts blush, too? The world is a strange thing, and she blushes just by a teasing word from me, and it seems that she must be a kind ghost. In that case, why was she locked up here, and what mistake did she make? I was a little curious, after all, she just said that there were other demons, demons, and monsters, and these three were detained here because of their mistakes. And why is she imprisoned here?
Me: "What's the other half? Is it just to keep my exercises running?"
Xiaoqian: "No, it will take you at least a year to break through." Your human cultivation must go through the three stages of enlightenment, conscience, and awakening, and then you can reach the peak of cultivation. This is a gift from God, and it is the root of your human invincibility."
Me: "Are you human beings different from ours?"
Xiao Qian: "You continue to comprehend! Other things will be discussed after you break through."
Me: "Okay, but why are you helping me so much, can you tell me why?"
Xiaoqian: "The reason is very simple, but I can't tell you, you should break through quickly! Believe me, at least I'm really for your good."
Me: "Okay, in that case, hopefully I'll wake up and know what I want."
After saying that, I closed my eyes and wanted to find a new way for myself to ask. But if the shortcomings of my heart have changed, what is the remaining half? What is it? Why is no one able to explain to me how to complete the other half?
"Benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith." Just when I couldn't find my way, suddenly a voice came to my head. I've only seen this sound once before, but I'm very familiar with it. Isn't this the voice that appeared when he was miserably tested by the 'Hundred Fox Ghost Catcher'? The last time it was this voice: the soul moved lightly, the body was put together, the spirit was separated, and the body was relaxed.
And this time it was a direct reminder to me: benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith. Isn't this the Five Constants of Confucianism on Earth? Does this have anything to do with the mind? But the only relationship between them is the relationship between the five organs and the five constants and the five elements.
The heart is fire, the liver is wood, the spleen is earth, the lungs are gold, and the kidney is water. Among the five viscera, only the word 'heart' does not have the word moon, and it is also the heart that is the most changeable. People should also have the five constants at the very basics, and if we use a changeable heart to evolve the five constants, that is:
Benevolence: For compassion. If there is no compassion, how can we love others?
Righteousness: For the heart of shame. If there is no shame, how can we value love and righteousness?
Ceremony: For the sake of respect. If there is no respect, how can you be knowledgeable?
Wisdom: The heart of right and wrong. If you don't have a sense of right and wrong, how can you be resourceful?
Faith: for the heart of honesty. If you don't have an honest heart, how can you keep your word?
The Five Constants are built on the basis of love, and love is built in a grateful heart. Only a grateful heart can make oneself truly have a clear conscience, and only a grateful heart can reflect the meaning of one's own life value. Gratitude is the way to realize the value of our own life, and it is also our eternal and progressive driving force.
Thinking of this, I was suddenly shocked in my heart, my godmother still didn't know what was going on? She gave me buns at the beginning, and it seemed to be worth a lot of money! She also gave me the nutritional pill and health liquid in the early stage, so that I was fortunate enough to come to Sage Mountain. Moreover, if it weren't for the godmother who used medicine to save me at that time, who knows if I can see others alive, so at this moment, I instantly understood that it is the concern and the fetters that prove that you have a heart.
If you don't even have someone to worry about, then how lonely are you? If you don't even have someone to care about you, then how lonely are you? Fetters and concerns, with these, you are a person with a heart! No, I want to ask Mei Jiansheng, how is my godmother? Even if I erase her memory, I must give her a better life.
Xiaoqian: "You finally realize that you have a beating heart! But you still need to completely smooth out the wounds in your heart, otherwise you still can't break through."
Me: "My heart is broken"?
As soon as I woke up, Xiao Qian spoke again. However, Xiaoqian's words made me a little strange, my heart was not hurt! How can I say that there is an injury? I haven't even experienced my first love? How can I be hurt? Now I am just worried about my godmother's condition, otherwise I would be very good!
Xiaoqian: "Your heart is broken, and you left it a long time ago, but you can't remember it!"
Me: "Can't remember"?
Xiaoqian: "Yes! This injury has been there for a long time, maybe when you were a child, you are still in the stage of enlightenment!"
Me: "Oh! that's probably my parents!"
Xiaoqian: "Maybe! You are too kind, so your depression, your sorrow, your sadness, etc., a lot of negative emotions are in this wound, maybe you have to vent happily!"
Me: "I don't understand, how do I vent"?
Xiaoqian: "Let's cry! Maybe it's okay to cry a lot, I'll go down first."
Me: "Crying, but I don't remember if I still have tears, I grew up eating hundreds of meals, wearing other people's clothes, and living in a shabby house that leaks rain. I didn't cry at the time, why do I cry now"?
looked at Xiao Qian who went down the stairs in a daze, I forgot to cry. I've only screamed in times of trial, I've only roared in times of anger, but I've never cried when I'm sad. Forget about the emotion, forget the feeling.
Ahem, to be honest, I'm reluctant to write this paragraph, because I want to be embarrassed too. A character who has set off a bloody storm in another world actually wants to describe the process of crying slowly, which is really embarrassing for me! But if I don't write this paragraph, there are really many things that can't give you the truth and answers later! So in desperation, I can only omit a certain period of crying and sobbing here!
When my tears flowed down, I couldn't stop all kinds of negative emotions in my heart in an instant, and as a result, the voice was not controlled. Later, I heard Mei Jiansheng tell me, as soon as the sound of my crying came out, it alarmed all the saints, and this cry almost made them think that some terrifying people from the night crying ghost clan had attacked the saint mountain.
It was so embarrassing, so I didn't think much of it when I cried and fainted at first. After all, my cry was so loud that I was stunned by my own cry! But I forgot that my fate changed every time I fell asleep. For example, a certain lethargy made me meet my godmother. A certain coma made me take away by Mei Jiansheng. Several times I fell asleep, and I passed the test of Forbidden Purgatory. One time I fell asleep and gave me eight sets of exercises with names to pit people.
Therefore, everyone should also know that there is definitely a big event happening in this lethargy, and it is the kind of major event that changed the trajectory of my fate in the later period. But I really didn't know that this would happen at the time, after all, my imagination was really limited at that time!
Before I fell asleep, all I remembered was a cool energy rushing from my heavenly spirit cover to my heart. Then a mouthful of blood spat out, I remember that this was the mouthful of blood that I wanted to vomit but didn't vomit when I entered the assessment of the Dragon Group Training Martial Arts Academy. So I thought it was just a breakthrough and finally threw it up, so I relaxed, let go, and let myself lie in bed and fell asleep.
When I woke up, I felt refreshed, deaf and clear. When I got out of bed, I really felt so relaxed. Because, I was finally able to take off the ugly and bulky stone coat, teary eyes! Without hesitation, I immediately took it off, I was going to drop the stone coat, but I thought that this was a good equipment for the pit apprentices! At least it also made the apprentices behind me teary-eyed, so I put it into the storage bag. Call... I could finally make a good excuse for my tears, I cried with joy, and I happily took off my stone coat.
In addition to this self-deceptive thought, I also have a feeling now that I can easily beat me down a hundred or a hundred of me who have not broken through before! Of course, I can't be too high-profile at this time, because I know that the weakest one in this 'Asking Heart Building' may also be able to easily defeat a hundred of me now.
So when I got out of bed, I was going to start sorting out the blood I had vomited before I fell asleep, but I didn't find the slightest trace of it. What's going on? Did Xiao Qian help me clean it? It should be! Otherwise, the other three might not be so kind. After looking around, he found that there was no other figure on the second floor, so he walked to the first floor.
The first floor has been restored to its original empty appearance, but the tables and chairs in the so-called inner hall are still there, and of course, the dishes on the table are fake and have disappeared. Demons, demons, monsters, the three of them were still sitting there motionless, as if they were statues. But where did Xiao Qian go?
Me: "Mrs. Yao, what about Xiaoqian"?
Mrs. Yao: "Didn't she go up with you? and didn't come down, how do I know?"
Me: "No, she came down before I cried!"
Mo Zhutou: "Please don't tarnish the word 'cry', okay? Are you crying? You are thundering, oh! In the words of you humans, you are the ghost crying monster."
Kidnapper: "It's the ghost crying wolf, not the ghost crying monster." Anyway, your cry makes me regret it, why do I have to have an extra pair of ears than you"?
As for that exaggeration, I almost reasoned with them, but I still have to thank Xiaoqian, so I still have to ask them questions, I can't offend them now. And what is the point of them? Is this the time to discuss my crying? No! It's Xiaoqian's whereabouts!
Me: "Xiaoqian really didn't come down"?
Mrs. Yao: "No, she must still be upstairs, but with your strength, if she wants to hide, you really can't find her."
Me: "In that case, then I would like to thank you for your help to me, and I would like you to help me tell Xiaoqian." Thank her for her on-demand broadcast for me, so that I can successfully break through, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you for today's feelings, farewell"!
After saying that, I was about to turn around and leave, but I didn't pay attention, the three of them were looking at me with strange expressions! It wasn't until I walked to the door that I realized, "Hey, how could this door not be opened?" What's the matter? Do you still need a key? But Mei Jiansheng and the others didn't give me any keys?
Wait! Could it be that I need the energy of the Awakening Rank to open it? So I used the energy of the Awakening Rank strength to prepare to forcibly open this door, only to find out, at least I guessed wrong! The door still didn't move at all, strange? How can I open the door?
Kidnapper: "It's really pitiful! The young head is crying, and he actually wants to use the energy of the early stage of the awakening stage to open this door!"
Mrs. Yao: "Don't talk too much if you know that people are pitiful, anyway, we can just watch him perform quietly."
Mo Zhutou: "I heard that human beings just like fantasy, maybe after he cried his head, he fantasized about himself as a master at the level of 'Enlightenment Realm'!"
Me: "What? May I ask Mo Zhutou, does this door need a key to open it"?
After listening to their conversation, I probably guessed one thing, that is to say, this door is definitely not something that can be opened by just the awakening level, but there is another way to open this door.
Mrs. Yao: "Didn't the person who brought you in tell you?"
Me: "... No, they just let me stay here for two days and then locked me in. And then you found out, I really don't understand what the hell is going on."
The 'demon' didn't answer my question, but Mrs. Yao asked a question. As a result, my answer made the three of them look at each other, why does it seem a little weird!
Kidnapper: "If you want to open this door, either you have the strength to comprehend the realm, or you can only open the door by letting the four of us open it together." Otherwise, you can only shout for help and let the people outside come to save you!"
