"Senior, why is it hot and cold?" Xia Chen was very puzzled, making him lie down in this way was much more uncomfortable than lying on his back, not to mention, his little brother was uncomfortable. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The old man explained: "All things need to be harmonious, and yin and yang can be harmonious. The front is yang, the back is yin, the soul is yang, the spirit is yin, the heat is yang, and the cold is yin, this is just following the way of nature. All things are interdependent and mutually reinforcing. Mutual growth is not fighting, and mutual restraint is fighting. ”

Xia Chen endured the torture, although he didn't quite understand the old man's words, he still said modestly: "The younger generation has been taught. ”

The old man's remarks made him curious, so he asked: "Senior, there is something unknown about the younger generation. ”

"Oh?" said the old man, smiling slightly, "what do you not understand?" ”

Pursing his lips, Xia Chen asked, "What 'Dao'?"

Raising his eyebrows, the old man replied: "What the old man said just now is also 'Tao'. Then he asked Xia Chen, "Have you read the Tao Te Ching?"

In the book "Tao Te Ching", Xia Chen lived in the mountains all year round, and how could the people in the countryside come into contact with it? ”

"Hehe, the old man likes a humble person like you. The old man smiled and said, "The Tao Te Ching is the work of the Taoist ancestor Lao Tzu, and the beginning is the cloud: 'The Tao can be the Tao, the very Tao, the name can be famous, the very famous.' The beginning of the nameless heaven and earth, the mother of all things. 'The Word, which can be said and named, but is not an ordinary thing with a name and an image, is not an eternal way. The Great Dao was born before heaven and earth, and it was the beginning of opening up heaven and earth, and before the Great Dao produced all things, it was the mother of all things. ”

Xia Chen listened with relish.

The old man said: ""The Great Biography of Zhou Yi and the Dictionaries" cloud: 'One yin and one yang is the Tao', this is the basic law. ”

"Oh, then, is there a good or bad way?" Xia Chen asked like a curious baby.

"The good and bad of the Tao is just the definition given by people, for the old man, if he does not violate the law and does not go against the way of heaven, he is the Tao. The old man said, "Today, artificially divide the righteous path and the demon path, the former is headed by the Heavenly Sword Sect, and the latter is headed by the Moon Devouring Sect. If you really want to say good or bad, you should each play fifty big boards, because there are villains in the righteous way, and there are gentlemen in the dark smoke miasma of the devil's way. ”

"What the old-timers said is very true. Xia Chen said.

......

The two chatted like this, and Xia Chen became more and more interested in the "Dao". The old man was like his enlightenment teacher, leading him into a place he had never experienced before, and he even made him forget for a moment the pain of his body being tempered.

Time passed quickly, an hour passed in the blink of an eye, the physical tempering was over, and the old man removed the enchantment outside Xia Chen's body.

Xia Chen hurriedly touched his buttocks, and found that his body was slimy, and it also emitted a foul smell, which really made him unbearable.

Although we don't come from a good background, we are also people who love cleanliness.

As if to see Xia Chen's thoughts, the old man pointed to a passage in the cave and reminded: "There is a small stream passing through the back cave, you can follow the passage to the stream in the back cave to wash." ”

"Good Rat!" Xia Chen jumped off the stone bed with a carp, hurriedly picked up the clothes beside the bed, and ran in without having time to look at the old man.

"Wow!

The water is cool and refreshing, Xia Chen said with great enjoyment.

With his muscles and bones, he found that he was indeed much stronger than before.

"I don't know what happened to the fairy, I'll ask the old-timer later, he may know!" Xia Chen was still thinking about the girl in white. Although he had seen many women, he had never seen such a delicate woman as her.

Thinking of asking the old man about the fairy's situation, Xia Chen took a bath quickly, and continued to rub it and it was over.

When he got dressed and walked back to the front cave, he raised his eyes to look at the old man who was meditating not far away, but when he saw the old man's face, his expression froze.

I was shocked to find that this old man was actually the person he had the opportunity to take half a year ago!

"Old-timer, it's you!"

Opening his eyes, the old man's spirit flickered, and he said, "Xia Chen, we meet again." ”

It turned out that Xia Chen and the old man actually had a one-sided relationship.

At that time, Xia Chen was not called "Xia Chen", but "Xia Cheng". A year ago, his grandfather, who was dependent on him for some reason, had a strange disease, because his family was poor, and he could only rely on the prescription prescribed by Lang Zhong to find medicine in person. But half a year has passed, and the prescription has been changed again and again, but I still don't see my grandfather getting better.

One day, Xia Chen came to this mountain to look for medicine tired, so he rested under a big tree, Xu was too comfortable, Xia Chen actually took a nap, and after a while, he fell asleep against the big tree, in the dream Xia Chen snuggled in his grandfather's arms, listening to his grandfather tell some myths and legends.

"Boom!"

I don't know how long it took, because of the sound of the leaves above his head, Xia Chen woke up from his dream and looked up.

This is not to be seen, it is not tight, as soon as I looked, Xia Chen jumped up, and looked at the branches and leaves of the canopy one foot high above with his eyes like a torch.

There was a white-haired old man sleeping with a wine gourd pinned to his waist!

I saw the white-haired old man smash his mouth, move his body, and then sleep soundly by himself.

Xia Chen was a little shocked when he saw a white-haired old man for a while, but he didn't dare to hinder the old man from sleeping, so he simply picked up the medicine basket and continued to look for medicine.

Just after walking a few steps, Xia Chen felt that the etiquette was inappropriate, so he turned around and stood a few steps away and bowed deeply to the white-haired old man on the tree.

At this time, the situation has changed, but the old man in the tree is unstable and unstable, and the subway comes down.

"Ouch!" the old man sat down on the ground and rubbed his head.

Xia Chen raised his body slightly, still in a bowful posture, and looked at the old man who had a sore buttocks in front of him, but he was rubbing his head.

A gust of wind blew, and Xia Chen came back to his senses, and hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man up, and said, "Old man, are you okay?"

The old man let go of the hand rubbing his head and looked at the cloth-clothed young man who was holding him: "Who are you?"

Xia Chen bowed down and said, "Go back to the old-timers, the younger Xia Cheng." ”

"Which summer, which morning?"

"The 'summer' of summer, the 'success' of success. ”

The old man listened to his name, rolled his eyes, nodded thoughtfully, and asked, "Look at the young man, are you here to collect medicine in the old forest in the deep mountains?"

"Hmm. Hearing the word "medicine", a trace of melancholy flashed on Xia Chen's face.

The old man's eyes were sharp, and Xia Chen's face changed slightly, but he could see it clearly.

"Can you tell the old man who is sick and how to tell the old man?"

Xia Chen pondered for a moment, helped the old man sit in the place where he was sleeping just now, and told the other party about his grandfather's illness, his illness and the fact that the treatment had been ineffective for half a year.

After hearing this, the old man stroked his white beard, and after thinking for a while, he said, "The old man has a prescription, I don't know if you dare to try it?"
