When the Qiao sisters saw the appearance of the man in black, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and said in a daze: "Daddy, why are you." ”

Ming and Yan were surprised, just after hearing the copper-faced man call out the identity of the man in black, they also mistakenly thought that it was the Venerable Bird who came back from the dead, looking at the scene in front of them, the man in black turned out to be the father of the Qiao sisters, I don't know what he has to do with the Venerable Venerable Fowl.

Qiao Lao stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The Wandering Soul Palace is not reluctant to ask for the Nine Dragon Cups, if you don't want to find a way to attract their attention, it will inevitably affect our hometown." The bronze-faced man mistakenly thought that I was the Venerable Bird, so I just planned to let them ask the Venerable Master of the Fowl to go. ”

"It's strange how that man calls his father a celestial bird. ”

Da Qiao didn't know what was going on, and he was secretly glad that his misidentification had saved him a lot of trouble.

Seeing that the plum blossom fairy was preoccupied, Qiao Lao was silent, and said with a smile: "I hid it very well, but you can't recognize it." Most of that person was suspicious of the dark ghost, thinking that if he dared to come out to confront the Wandering Soul Palace, it must be the Venerable Heavenly Bird. ”

"Unexpectedly, after many years, the Wandering Soul Palace finally came to the door. I'm afraid that if they can't find the Venerable Master, they will still make a comeback. ”

The plum blossom fairy was persecuted by Mang Xintian and migrated to Lingnan, suffering from hardship and hardship. Because of fate, he got acquainted with the Venerable Bird of Heaven, although the flowers and birds were still and moving, and their temperaments were very different, the plum blossom fairy still admired his supernatural cultivation very much.

Later, I heard that the Venerable Bird infiltrated the Wandering Soul Palace to steal the Nine Dragon Bowls, and was chased and killed by the soul envoys of the Quartet, and life and death were uncertain. The Venerable Master of the Heavenly Bird had revealed to her that the Nine Dragons Lamp concealed the qi of heaven and earth, and could live the flesh and bones of the dead, and the Plum Blossom Fairy knew a little about the reputation of the Wandering Soul Palace, and she was lonely and lonely, and she did not want to provoke such a deeply poisonous sect.

Lao Dan has long said, 'The wind does not end.' The rainstorm does not last all day'. No matter how cruel and vicious Mang Xintian is, his destiny will be exhausted after all. The order of the seasons, the state of the world, plum blossoms are cold and proud, and it is common for this kind of scene to be commonplace, thinking that there is no need to deliberately cultivate with the help of the Nine Dragons.

Qiao Lao groaned: "The people from the Wandering Soul Palace suddenly came to the door. This must be someone playing right and wrong, framing blame, Aunt Mei, you are in charge of plum blossoms, and it is not a way to live in seclusion for a long time. The Flower Dynasty Festival is approaching, and there will be discussions about the election of the Flower King. It's time for you to get out of the mountains, too. ”

When Jiangshanmen started a business, he once enshrined the plum blossom as the king of flowers, and showed her unyielding character to the people. and when Mang Xintian took charge of Qiyao Mansion, a hundred flowers bloomed. The ode is like a tide, and the unique plum blossom refers to the disadvantages of the times, and it is upright. Mang Xintian is hypocritical and treacherous, on the surface he writes lyrics and chants, but he doesn't mean anything, but secretly he orders the eagle claw ghost to wreak havoc, causing a terrifying plum blossom catastrophe.

As the saying goes, 'to each his own eye'. In terms of appearance and color alone, Chunlan and autumn chrysanthemum. Each is good at winning. Whether it is peonies, plum blossoms, orchids, chrysanthemums, lotuses, etc., it is impossible to overwhelm the crowd and win everyone's appreciation. The reason why these flowers are particularly valuable is that they are endowed with character and are universally recognized. Flowers are contaminated with popularity, and it is not the same. Therefore, the cultivation adults in the flowers and trees always use these flowers as the most.

Now the immortal road is prosperous, and all beings are equal. Kao was chosen for his ability to build the character and temperament of the people. Orchid. Although there is a king's incense, it is not in line with the times. Chrysanthemum, the hidden in the flowers, lotus, bamboo, the gentleman in the flowers. It is not universal, has no quarrel with the world, and is not in line with the current situation of the heavens.

Peony used to have the name of the king of flowers, plum blossom Yun is a rising star, the two are equal, it is difficult to distinguish Xuan, there is indeed a competitive strength. Some people advocate the double flower king, saying that two flowers can be respected together, which is also an ambiguous discussion. Don't say that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, even if there is both respect and respect, there is often a master-slave division. Peony, Jun also. Plum blossoms, people also. Mencius said that the people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light.

The name of the peony reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty, although there was Wu Zetian's depreciating prestige, after the Song Dynasty, there were more and more people chanting plum blossoms. This is also a reflection of the elimination of the clan gate valve after the improvement of the imperial examination system, and the society is becoming more and more common.

"Yes, the master is the leader of our arbor clan, and our whole family will support you. ”

When Xiao Qiao heard that the plum blossom fairy was going out of the mountain to compete for the king of flowers, she immediately smiled, she had long longed for the outside world of flowers and flowers, and wanted to see a lively one.

Plants and trees are divided into shrubs and trees, peony is a shrub, plum is a tree, this Kao dispute is also related to the glory of the two major plant families.

"You girl. The Plum Blossom Fairy stroked Xiao Qiao's head and smiled, and sighed: "Old Qiao, you know that I have a secluded personality and have no interest in this kind of competition. ”

"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, when this world of great contention, where is there a paradise. Aunt Mei, you bear the high hopes of the people in the world, and the feelings of the literati and scholars, how can you give in like those vulgar fans who scratch their heads and pretend to be swaying?"

The arbor family has many talents made of pillars, and all the house utensils are all used in this, because there are natural beautiful materials, but they are easy to be chiseled by axes, and it is difficult to protect the old age, so the character of the arbor is mostly loyal and loyal.

Shrubs are mostly ornamental, delicate in nature, and often painstakingly cultivated only for a season. The endowments of the two are different, and it is inevitable that there will be many differences. In fact, there are many trees that can be watched, such as peaches, plums, apricots, and cherries are all colorful, and plum blossoms are among the best. Moreover, because she has no intention of competing for spring, Ling Kai is lonely, and she is only after the withering of the people, so she has the name of the three friends of the cold year.

The arbor family has a lot of opinions about the peony, peony, chrysanthemum, camellia and other people to monopolize the name of the flower, if the plum blossom can overwhelm the group and win the position of the king of flowers, this is tantamount to a heavy blow to the shrub family.

At least it shows that you don't have to be violet, you can win appreciation by flattering and seeking goodness, and you can gain the admiration of people who have a heart by sticking to your nature.

"What Elder Qiao said is very true. In recent years, there has been a lot of noise in the country, and the little fairy has a lot of shame. If he is absent from the Flower Dynasty Festival again, I am afraid that the heavenly court will also be condemned. Xiaoxian insulted the position of the flower fairy, and should have fulfilled his duties, opened at any time, and decorated the world. Otherwise, the Three Realms will become a land of bitter cold and depression, and there will be no difference between it and the hell of the Netherworld?"

Plants and trees are the living force of the world, and even in the season of three winters, there are varieties of plum, pine, and bamboo, which are proud of snow and frost, to maintain the vitality of the Three Realms from withering. Ordinary people are either superstitious or unbelieving in things that cannot be seen or touched, and there is a lack of a rational word between superstition and confusion. Although human beings cannot get a glimpse of the mysteries of the universe, their level of understanding has been constantly improving for thousands of years, and even some progress has been made in the objects that are difficult to perceive in the six senses.

Although human beings have limited cognitive ability, they can also observe things that cannot be perceived in normal states with the help of some instruments. For example, magnetism, electricity, gas, etc.

............

Qi is a thing. It is divided into yin and yang, and it is spread in the three worlds. Humans breathe air all the time, but they are rarely aware of it. You can only touch it when you blow into the wind, and you can only observe it with your eyes in winter. There are plants, trees, insects, and fish in the world, which Xizhe calls plants and animals, which are distinguished by the observation of the eye. Xizhe's cognition is confined to the six senses. Emphasizing analysis and empirical evidence, after thousands of years of hard work, it has finally achieved great success, and is known as science.

Science is the study of subjects, which classifies all things in the world, exhausting the core of the essence and the extreme subtlety, but when it is put in the universe, it is only a sea of speculation, and it is just a matter of seeing its boundlessness.

As for the study of mid-summer. By the pre-Qin period, it had been largely completed. It is really strange that in the next two or three thousand years, it can be said that nothing has been invented, but it has become more and more trivial.

The world thinks that the more the gods are made, the more complete they become. However, this is not the case with culture and scholarship, and when it comes to the unified world, it is becoming more and more restricted, and it is only degraded.

In particular, the ancient Yin and Yang Five Elements and Immortal Fangshu have a great influence, but they are always in the middle of confusion. There are different opinions, and there is no consensus. The arch of belief is like a god. Those who do not believe are denounced as vain, thinking that they have no value, but can only fool the people, and bring great misfortune.

In fact, whether to believe or not depends on whether it can be proved by hearing and seeing. Isn't it just as amazing that Tessie science can be used to dredge up proofs and achieve great results, so it can be trusted by people. As for worldly religions. For example, the three religions of Buddha, Tao and Taixi Heavenly Apocalypse cannot be heard or seen, and can only be attributed to their beliefs.

Belief cannot be empirically verified, and the truth is not fully mature, after all, it is still superstition.

However, whether the five elements of yin and yang are superstitious. We must know that there is also a standard for empirical evidence, the so-called blind cannot compare with the view of the article, and the deaf cannot compare with the sound of bells and drums. As far as ordinary humans are concerned, the empirical evidence should not at least go beyond the scope of the six senses that can be perceived. The six senses, the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind, transcend the six senses, and even if there is a supreme path, mortals have no ability to perceive.

Therefore, there is a situation in which the so-called non-empirical ability is beyond the perceptual ability of mortals, for example, the Buddhists talk about the seventh consciousness, the eighth consciousness, the eighth consciousness, and the ninth consciousness, the Amara, all of which cannot be verified to mortals.

Like the Five Elements of Yin and Yang and some apocalyptic religions, which originated at least thousands of years ago, they were often only one or two sages who stood out, and then the shadow ones became more and more popular.

People in the world will inevitably suspect their intentions for some things that cannot be perceived, and denounce them as deception. There are indeed many charlatans and incompetent quacks who have lost virtue in later generations. When it comes to deception, one is a scheme, that is, fame, fortune and wealth. There are also very few who have no plans, either mischief or neurosis.

However, if a doctrine or theory can be enveloped for a lifetime or even spread through the ages, then the founder is afraid that it is difficult to fall into three categories. Successors often do not lack integrity, intelligence, and youth, and if they are not convinced by their hearts, they will naturally not be able to convince themselves.

Moreover, the practice is usually very arduous, and there is hardly any reward except for the obsession with the path and the pleasure of the spirit.

Excluding the absurdity of people with ulterior motives, there is at least one possibility that the reason why the ancestors were able to create occult science such as the five elements of yin and yang may have a much stronger perceptual ability than people living in an ethical society.

Xunzi said, 'A gentleman is not different, and he is good at things'. The use of artifacts is an extraordinary ability of human beings to compensate for their own weaknesses. People have no claws and teeth, strong muscles and bones, and can defeat fierce birds and beasts, in addition to the wisdom of the language and writing to be continued and inherited, the increasingly sophisticated utensils are also an important factor.

However, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and the human perception of nature may also be quite degraded. Build a house and shelter from the storm. The eyes are confused, the ears are full of sounds, and the nose is mixed with five flavors, and this kind of degradation is almost inevitable.

It is remarkable that after the prevalence of printing, people's eyesight was much worse than before, and ten steps away, they could not distinguish horses and cattle, and such young students increased day by day.

Some animals that are close to human beings, although they also live in an ethical society, because of their simple life and the fact that they have more skills for human beings to use, the six senses are much stronger than those of human beings. Like cats and dogs, their sense of smell and speed are far stronger than those of humans.

It is said that animals will react in various ways during an earthquake, which simply means that they have a much more sensitive perception of nature than humans.

In other words, if humans have been living a life of nesting and burrowing, and drinking blood, they may be able to reach hundreds of steps away with their eyesight, smell, and hearing. This is also the reason why the cultivation of the immortal path should escape from the world and not eat the fireworks of the world.

Of course, it is possible that most human beings still like a social life with complete utensils, and do not care about the passivation of the six senses.

Lao Dan said: "Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law of the Tao, and the Tao is natural." "Like astrology, numerology, Yili, and the five elements of yin and yang, they are all the results of Taoism and nature.

Although it may not be completely in line with scientific standards, if future generations want to dredge up and prove it, I am afraid that they will also need some practical practice, which is almost impossible for ordinary people whose divine consciousness is dulled. However, as the way of the immortals becomes more and more enlightened, there may be ways to gain evidence that are more acceptable to the world.

The movement of plants and trees and insects and fish is different, but they are in the same cycle every day. Taoists say that the five insects inhale yang energy and exhale yin energy, while plants and trees are just the opposite. Therefore, in some remote and cold areas, humans will feel difficult to breathe, and the difficulty of vegetation survival is also an important factor.

The so-called three friends of pine, bamboo, and plum can be awe-inspiring and independent in the bitter cold of the three winters, which is really commendable and great. No wonder the literati bachelor has blue eyes.

Plants and trees are the vitality of the Three Realms, and they are everywhere. Even the netherworld and hell have other side flowers, which are actually indispensable in carrying the harmony of the yin and yang cycle.

"It seems that the Nine Dragons are really not on the Plum Blossom Fairy?"

Ming Qin knew that Yan Qingwu was unwilling to give up, but he still suspected that the so-called Heavenly Fowl Master would secretly contact the Plum Blossom Fairy. Now that the truth has been revealed, it turns out that the Heavenly Fowl Master has never appeared at all, and the Plum Blossom Fairy will also return to Middle-earth to participate in the Flower King election during the Flower Dynasty Festival. This trip seems to have been in vain.

Yan Qingwu coughed lightly, pulled Ming Qin's sleeve and turned out from behind the plum tree. The plum blossom fairy had already stood here in disguise, and knew the movements of the two well, but she was open-minded and allowed them to eavesdrop on the sidelines, and did not drink through the collection of the two.

"Dancing lightly in Xiayan, this is my junior brother Mingqin. It is a privilege to have a chance to meet the plum blossom fairy who is famous in the first generation. ”

Yan Qingwu waved his hand, his eyes swept over the four of them, and he smiled, and did not hide his real name. (To be continued.) )
