Chapter Ninety-Three: Exchange
(Dragon Boat Festival, one more chapter, multiple pastimes after eating)
Whoop Qin came to his senses, with an oops, and shouted in his mouth: "Dagong is selfless, Dagong is selfless!" When he turned his head to look, Duanmu Youlan and Li Hong beside him were following behind a Taoist priest with a fairy wind and bones, walking slowly, and then realized that he had just experienced several illusions, and when he recalled them, he couldn't help but blush his cheeks instantly. But seeing Li Hong throwing a relieved and quiet smile at himself, he was relieved.
"This is the fifth layer of the pagoda, the realm of no desire and no desire. Walking out of this layer of pagoda, it is the Valley of Ten Thousand Immortals!" Wan Bao Xian led the way in front, and introduced as he walked: "People's hearts are treacherous, and they always think that **** is higher than appetite, and the desire for power is stronger than ****, but all this is just worldly desire." There are those people who are bent on getting rid of these mundane desires, being clear in their minds, pursuing the mysteries of heaven and earth, and cultivating their own virtues, so as to transcend them. But whether it is seeking knowledge or virtue, there are traces to follow after all, and it is better to have no desire and no desire. ”
When Wan Bao Xian said this, he pushed his hands forward, and a dazzling light shone out: "It's here, 'out' of the pagoda is my worldly world in the Valley of Ten Thousand Immortals!" After speaking, when he walked out of the tower first, what caught his eye was a beautiful world with beautiful mountains and rivers. Wan Bao Xian sighed thoughtfully, "It's a pity, even if you have no desires, you still have to return to this world full of desires if you take one more step in the end." This is the way of heaven. ”
Although Li Hong felt that the other party's mysterious and mysterious truth was inevitably preachy, he was still quite touched. Cultivation relies on the dual cultivation of life, the Taoist door is heavy and light, and the exploration of Zen machine and mind is superficial, so Li Hong still feels very interesting at the moment.
Wrestling the piano was even more fascinated, carefully recalling the truth implied in the last sentence "After no desire and no desire, it is still a mundane world". Suddenly, he exclaimed: "Isn't it a six-story pagoda? I just walked through the fifth floor, but what about the sixth floor? Why did you walk out of the pagoda?"
Li Hong said with a smile: "This Ten Thousand Immortal Valley is the sixth layer of the pagoda! Ten thousand seniors said that after walking through the state of no desire and no desire, in the end it is still the world of desire and demand, we have not walked out of the pagoda at all, and it is this sixth layer that we have entered!"
Wan Baoxian glanced at Li Hong with great appreciation and nodded.
Duanmu Youlan took a deep breath: "Senior Wan, the taste of your Ten Thousand Immortal Valley is getting better and better." It should be renamed Wanhua Valley!"
Wan Baoxian smiled heartily: "If your master says so, I will change it!"
There are thousands of scenery in the valley, and there is no need to elaborate on the magic, the three of them followed Wanbao Immortal to his cave blessed land, and there were already children offering tea and fragrant fruits, all kinds of fairy vegetables. Li Hong and Whooqin hadn't eaten for two or three days, and they hadn't Bigu, so they weren't reserved anymore and feasted on it.
Duanmu Youlan explained in the future, but Wanbao Immortal was a little difficult: "With my friendship with your master, it stands to reason that it is not difficult to borrow your magic weapon, but you know the rules of my Ten Thousand Immortal Valley, the magic weapon is never borrowed empty, and I can't break the rules." Moreover, the protector gods under the Body God Sect are also of the same sect as me, and they have some origins, if I lend you the magic weapon to descend to them, it will be unreasonable!"
Li Hong didn't understand what 'empty borrowing' was, so he asked what it meant.
Wan Bao Xian waved his hand: "Let the little Taoist friends smile, this is the rule set by Wan Bao Xian in the past dynasties, our things cannot be lent out plainly, there must be a mortgage, and there must be a reward." To put it bluntly, it is to exchange, the same as doing business, 'equivalent' exchange, so that in business, no matter the relationship, I lend you the magic weapon, whatever you do, I can't care, and others can't gossip. ”
After listening to the explanation, Li Hong suddenly realized, turned his head to look at Duanmu Youlan, and then handed out a 'so so' expression. Duanmu Youlan smiled slightly, and also sent back a 'this is a last resort' expression. Li Hong shook his head and said secretly: "Duanmu is really a ghost spirit, and he has a magic weapon in his body, but he still can't hide it from her." “
She didn't know what to do, and continued to ask, "I don't know what kind of things can be exchanged?" She was still worried about Nishang's safety, so she hoped that this trip would be fruitful.
Wan Baoxian looked at Li Hong: "Xiao Daoyou is smart, you don't need me to say it!"
Li Hong hesitated for a moment, but still made up his mind. In a flash, he took out his [Sky Swallowing Toad]. He believed that Duanmu Youlan, since she brought herself here to borrow the treasure, she would definitely not have any worries, not to mention that the [Heaven Swallowing Toad] had already dripped blood to recognize the master, and others could not refine it.
Wanbao Immortal took the turquoise [Heaven Swallowing Toad] from Li Hong's hand, looked at it incessantly, and praised it: "Good magic weapon, good magic weapon! ”
Li Hong could see from Wan Bao Xian's expression that he knew the source of the [Heaven Swallowing Toad], and couldn't help but be slightly surprised, and after thinking for a moment, he still couldn't help but ask, "Seniors know this treasure?"
Wan Baoxian was straightforward, and nodded immediately: "I recognize it, but it's the first time I've seen it in my life." It's really better to hear than to see, and sure enough, the name is well deserved, and the sages of the Fuxu clan do have something outstanding. After speaking, Wan Bao Xian expected that Li Hong must still have questions, so he explained with a smile: "My title of Wan Bao Xian is passed down from generation to generation, and my memories and experiences have been passed on to future generations from generation to generation, so even what I saw and heard in ancient times is here!" Wan Bao Xian's right index finger lightly touched his temple, indicating that everything he knew came from inheritance.
Hearing this, Whack Qin couldn't help but exclaim: "The memories of ancient times can be passed down forever?
Wan Bao Xian smiled heartily, obviously quite touched by the words of the piano wrestling, holding the [Heaven Swallowing Toad] in his hand, he wanted to speak and stopped, and couldn't help but laugh again, and then spoke: "Who said that it is not? Even though the sea of knowledge is vast, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and what I have seen and heard for millions of years, how can I remember it alone? Each generation of Wan Bao Xian will be coarse and refined, pick and choose, and choose the memories that they find useful to keep, so it is inevitable that there will be some biases and mistakes. Just now, this little friend said that so many things will fill his brain, this is true, and the image is extreme! I think that when I first inherited the title of Wanbao Immortal, I was greedy and chewed too much, and swallowed too many memories of my predecessors in one go, and as a result, I squeezed some of my memories out of Zhihai in my life, and I haven't found them back yet!"
Duanmu Youlan chuckled lightly and quipped: "The ones I haven't remembered so far are all things that you owe money to others and owe people's family favors, right?
"There are some!" Wan Baoxian couldn't help but smile and nodded: "I remember too many things, my brain is not good, if it weren't for the continuous expansion of the sea of knowledge year by year, my brain is really going to burst, I have to save some memories elsewhere, and take it when I need it, like owe money to others, I really don't worry, you can put it first." ”
Whoo Qin was amused by Wan Bao Xian's words: "So, Wan Bao Xian in Wan Xian Gu has been passed down for many generations, and I thought there was only one from ancient times to the present!"
"If there is only one, wouldn't it be immortal? If you can live forever here, then what kind of heavenly realm will everyone squeeze their heads and soar to the heavens!" Wan Bao Xian said happily: "But I carry all the memories of my predecessors, and I am also a veritable Wan Bao Xian." ”
"Carrying all the memories of another person, isn't that person?" Li Hong muttered involuntarily: "When the memory can't distinguish the source, the boundary between oneself and others is blurred." ”
