Chapter 40: Purity of Heart

Ever since he realized that he was not much better than a martial artist of the same age, Bai Ya's mood was a little low, and at the same time a little shocked.

He didn't know when he had a faint sense of pride and superiority in his heart, and he felt different. Maybe it started with the killing of the black tiger in Shiyangji, or maybe it started with the bold assassination in Di Dao City.

Thinking of these two things, if Bai Ya doesn't have a little bit of pride and pride in his heart, it is hypocrisy.

However, he thought that he was quite modest and low-key! It was not until he did not have an advantage in the competition with a few of his peers that a deep sense of frustration appeared in his heart, and he realized that his tail had unconsciously lifted to the sky.

"What have I gained? Except for the boning knife method, I have practiced martial arts for less than three months, and I lost to Lu Yuan, and I can't beat Tang Hunt and Jiang Wu, the children of the family who have cultivated since childhood, shouldn't it be normal?"

After practicing the pile gong, Bai Ya reflected quietly alone in the room, "Wang Peng, Tong Lao, Yuan Ming, and Hui Yan, they all respect me very much, but I still don't know who I am? I'm just an ordinary otaku with a slightly correct outlook, a little tempered, a little willful, and a little clever." ”

"I am determined to travel this world with free will, but how far can I go if I don't even know myself. Bai Ya's eyes were a little dazed, "At the beginning of the crossing, the memory left by the fool surnamed Bai made me quickly throw away my weakness, but then no one will remind me that the road has to be ......walked on my own."

Thinking of this, Bai Ya only felt that his heart was clear.

He opened the mustard seed bag, took out the nameless mind book from it, and rubbed his fingers on it. He suddenly understood the true effect of this mental method, and most of the successful people in this world have a bit of a fetish.

Some people like to play with their collections, some people like to listen to music to relax, some people like to write and draw quietly, and some people like to raise flowers, grasses, insects and fish in their free time......

In fact, they all vent their pressure in various ways, and then push themselves with a clear mind and firmly move towards the road to success!

As the Yuanming Zen Master said, this nameless book in Bai Ya's hand is not a martial arts secret book, but a spiritual classic used by Buddhists to purify their hearts and minds and cultivate great perseverance and wisdom.

The spirit that Buddhism refers to is what Taoism calls the Taoist Dao Heart! The greatest effect of this classic is to eliminate distracting thoughts and anger and strengthen the Dao heart! In fact, the letter of the Yuanming Zen Master has already made it clear, but Bai Ya has not been able to understand it.

However, there are pros and cons to cultivating this mental method.

Baiya is not a Buddhist, a Buddhist is a monk who has been participating in meditation all his life. This method is only an auxiliary and does not form dependence. But he is not a monk, and there are too many temptations in the world of flowers, and if he cultivates this mental method, sooner or later he will form a dependence and resistance to this mental method.

If one day he can't even calm his mind with this method, then something will definitely happen to him.

Bai Ya took a deep breath, suppressed his desire to cultivate this classic, and resolutely put it into a mustard seed bag.

If you don't change your original intention, you have to always!

Bai Ya has decided that not only will he not practice this mental method now, but he will also not practice it in the future! He will use this classic as his whetstone, and will not practice as practice, as long as he can always keep his original intention, his spiritual will will will be unbreakable.

......

More than ten days later, Lu Yuan, Jiang Wu, and Tang Hunt suddenly came to the White Cliff Room one day.

"Brother Xian, we're going to get off the boat, I don't know what you're going to do?" Lu Yuan looked at him and smiled.

"Get off the boat?" Bai Ya was stunned, "Aren't you going to the Chengdu Martial Arts Hall to take the exam?

"Hehe, Brother Bai seems to have forgotten the present time except for eating, drinking, and Lazar all day long, even practicing pile skills in the room?" Jiang Wule patted Bai Ya's shoulder.

"Brother Bai, it's the end of the year in one month!" Seeing that Bai Ya was still at a loss, Tang Hunt reminded with a chuckle.

"New Year's Pass?"

"The New Year is approaching, and those martial arts halls in Chengdu only recruit apprentices in the first week of December, if this time passes, they will be closed and will not accept people!" Tang Hunt shook his head and explained, "And from here on, it will take at least two months to reach Chengdu by boat." ”

"I just started to take the boat, first, I made an appointment to meet in Jiameng City, and secondly, I stopped by to see the scenery of Shu Road, but I didn't just take the boat to Chengdu all the time!" Jiang Wu added with a smile.

"Brother Xian, do you want to teleport away with me and the others?" Lu Yuan vaguely invited.

After getting along for more than ten days, they have a good feeling for Baiya, and since they have been learning for a few times, they have completely accepted him.

The children of the family also have the pride of the children of the family!

Baiya was hit after the discussion, but Lu Yuan and the others were not like this, and both sides had a reorientation towards themselves.

Lu Yuan and the others felt that they had been practicing martial arts since they were young and had been carefully cultivated by their families, but when they came out to learn from others, they actually found that they were similar to a boy who lost his father at a young age and was a few years younger than him.

In fact, although Lu Yuan and others have been practicing martial arts since they were very young, they have not yet achieved their muscles and bones during the childish period, and they just stand on horses and play gymnastics-like martial arts routines. Seriously, it was twelve or thirteen years old that he began to come into contact with real martial arts.

And although Bai Ya himself has only practiced martial arts for a few months, the fool surnamed Bai was forced to practice sword skills for a few years when he was a child, and his physical foundation is not bad.

When they arrived at Yunlong Temple, Zen Master Yuanwu touched the phantom of the relics with the thunder sound of Zen language, which stimulated the potential, and the physical fitness of the two sides narrowed the gap. In addition, the Vajra Tiger Fist is the basic martial arts of the upper grade, and the result of this competition is a matter of course.

"Brother Bai, what's the difficulty?" Tang Hunt's eyes flickered, and he could see that Bai Ya was a little hesitant.

Bai Ya is indeed a bit conflicted, and he really wants to go to Chengdu with these young people. Whether he can pass the martial arts exam is still secondary, at least with these children of the family, he can get a lot of inside information, and he can find out the rivers and lakes of Shu as soon as possible.

If the immortal martial arts sects in Shu were not suitable for him, he would transfer to the Chu realm as soon as possible. If it suits him, then even if he can't pass the martial arts hall admissions, he can settle down, lay a solid foundation, and try to join the martial arts hall in the next year.

However, there is a problem with this, he must also use the teleportation talisman array, which is not in line with his low-key fake identity.

"Less than a few brothers, the younger brother doesn't have so many teleportation beads in his hands......"

Bai Ya thought about it, and finally decided to go according to the original plan. Lu Yuan and the others passed the martial arts exam and should still stay in Chengdu. Even if he misses this martial arts hall recruitment, he will have opportunities in the future, and he is not in a hurry for these two months on the road.

"Hehe, I thought it was the virtuous brother who didn't want to go with us anymore!" Lu Yuan and the others looked at each other and smiled, Jiang Wu waved his hand indifferently, and hurriedly said, "It's just a matter of teleporting crystal beads, but it's easy to do!

"The teleportation crystal bead is nothing but something outside the body, it is nothing to a martial artist like us, if Brother Bai pushes back, he just looks down on me and waits. Lu Yuan saw that Bai Ya was already moved, and immediately deliberately turned on a straight face.

Bai Ya was indeed moved, but he had his own principles. These people have only been with him for half a month, and although they are quite harmonious, he is not willing to owe this kind of favor.

He had heard from Wang Peng's mouth before that the teleportation crystal beads were different from ordinary gold and silver, even in the eyes of martial artists, they were more precious and could not be spent at will.

Bai Ya thought for a while, took out a vial from the mustard seed bag, and handed it to Lu Yuan, who was the leader.

"The hospitality of several brothers, the younger brother understands, but the younger brother can't ask for the teleportation beads of several brothers in vain. Bai Ya paused, pointed to the vial and said, "This thing is the little King Kong Pill of the King Kong Temple's healing elixir, which was originally kept by my father, and now it is given to several brothers to protect themselves." ”

"Brother Bai, what do you mean by this?" Lu Yuan looked displeased and frowned, "In this way, wouldn't we become merchants?"

"Brother Lu, Brother Bai doesn't mean that!" Tang Hunt said with a smile, "That's it, since Brother Bai doesn't want to accept our gifts for nothing, then we will take one pill per person, and take it as a souvenir!"

Lu Yuan and Jiang Wu struggled for a while, and finally accepted this arrangement.

Bai Ya was also very happy, these days, because of the treatment of facial diseases with the healing muscle and bone cream, there are about a dozen or so small King Kong pills left in the bottle, and they take five of them, but it is okay.

Compared with the transmission of crystal beads, the little King Kong Pill is actually more valuable, but Bai Ya followed Lu Yuan and others, and the benefits were numerous, of course, he couldn't care about it, he picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon.

......

Shu Kingdom, Chengdu.

Chengdu is one of the earliest cities in Shenzhou, and the Jinsha site can be traced back to the Shang Dynasty, which has been more than 6,700 years ago, and is the capital of the ancient Shu Kingdom.

Chengdu is borrowed from the historical experience of the Western Zhou Dynasty to build the capital, and the king of Zhou moved to Qi "one year and lived in Chengju, two years into Yi, three years into Chengdu" and got the name of Shudu. Shu language "Chengdu" is read as Shu capital. "Cheng" is "finished" and "ended", which means the "last capital" of Shu.

Chengdu is located in a plain, with fertile land and a mild climate, not only abundant precipitation, but also a dense river network. There are dozens of main tributaries such as Minjiang River and Tuojiang River in the plain, the river channels are vertical and horizontal, the ditches are staggered, and they are mainly distributed between the mountains and valleys, and the water quality is clear and excellent.

After the annexation of Bashu by the Qin State, the Dujiangyan Water Conservancy Project was built, which made irrigation convenient, and the Chengdu Plain has since become the "land of abundance" of "water and drought from people, not knowing hunger", and has always been the rice warehouse of Middle-earth Shenzhou.

In the later period of the Great Fission of Heaven and Earth, Shu became independent from Qin, and the royal family was the Meng family.

Meng's family originated from the surname Ji, from the son of the twenty-eighth king of the Spring and Autumn Patriotic Kingdom, the word Meng. It belongs to the ancestor's name as the surname, called Gong Meng, and later simplified to Meng.

In the early days of the founding of the Meng family, most of the courtiers were the Taoist Huang Lao faction, advocating the combination of Taoism and law, highlighting criminal virtue, and the upper class consolidated the power with grace and power, and the lower class paid attention to the rule of inaction and the people's livelihood.

In the Wenxing era, the Shu Dynasty introduced Confucianism, soldiers, Mohists and other ideas, but the domestic people respected Taoism and still took Taoism as the state religion. Qingcheng Mountain is a holy place of Taoism, and Emei is the coexistence of Buddhism and Taoism.

On this day, in the moat on the outskirts of Chengdu, four men and two women walked out.

After five days of teleportation, Bai Ya and the others finally came to Chengdu, the city of abundance!
