"It's still good, I collected 50,000 catties. Although Shen He's estimate in his heart was one hundred thousand catties, he also knew that the possibility of wanting to collect one million catties of purple bamboo crystal was very small, and it was already luck to be able to get these fifty thousand catties.

Mirage was a little embarrassed, because the bamboo insects and bamboo elephants that Shen He helped her catch were enough for her to improve to two realms, which would take at least thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, for her to cultivate by herself.

"My lord, some purple bamboo crystals have not yet taken shape, and if there are two or three thousand years, we can still collect tens of thousands of catties. Mirage said.

Shen He said: "Two thousand years is a bit long, wait until we have time to collect it again." It's been a few days now, so I'm going to look around elsewhere and see if there's anything else to gain. ”

For Shen He's proposal, the drunkard and the others were very happy, but Mirage said: "My lord, don't go to other places, nothing better." ”

Shen He asked, "Are you familiar with those places?"

Mirage said: "Very familiar, there is a carp spirit entrenched in the east, is a master who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard; there is a wild boar spirit in the southeast who claims to be the king, but there are some Taoism, but there is no treasure, let's go over, it is a pure waste of time." ”

Sun Guangliang quipped: "Little girl, you don't say this because you have been bullied by them before, so you don't dare to go over to see them, right?"

He pouted and said, "Who said that, I'm not afraid of them!"

"Haha, you said it yourself!" Sun Guangliang laughed, casually put his hand on Mirage's shoulder, and said, "Who bullied you?" Tell my brother and I'll help you clean them up. ”

Mirage slapped Sun Guangliang's hand away with a look of disgust, and said, "I don't want you to help me!

Shen He asked, "Mirage, did they really bully you?"

Mirage was a little embarrassed and said, "It's not bullying, it's just that damn carp spirit wants me to marry it." And the wild boar spirit was also beating my idea, but I ignored them and instigated them to fight a few times, but no one could help anyone. ”

"Haha!" Sun Guangliang laughed and said, "It turned out to be your suitor, no wonder you don't want me to interfere." Well, since it's your little lover, I'm not going to bully them. ”

Miraged, he cried out, "They have nothing to do with me! they are not me...... It's mine...... They have nothing to do with me anyway, and I don't want to bother with them. If you don't like them, kill them!"

Shen He said: "Since they are two insignificant little minions, let them fend for themselves." Let's go back, and when the nine-leaf purple orchid is ripe, we will leave. ”

Sun Guangliang said: "Master has spoken, so let's do it." ”

The drunkard also said: "This trip has been fruitful, and you have to rest well when you go back." As for other places, don't go. ”

Mirage did not agree or disagree with this, nodded, and returned with Shen He and the others.

Back in the swamp cave mansion, Shen Qing was already waiting outside the cave mansion, and when he saw Shen He and the others returning, he stepped forward and said, "Master." ”

"How?" asked Shen He.

Shen Qing said: "It's nothing. ”

"It's fine. It's hard work, go back to the Pu Realm to practice. Shen He said.

Shen Qing immediately entered the Pupu realm, and she didn't have the heart to deal with the drunkard, Sun Guangliang and others.

"That's so cool!" Mirage jumped in front of Shen He and asked, "My lord, who is that cool sister, how can you call your master?"

Shen He said: "She is Shen Qing, my servant. You have to have a good relationship with her, because her strength is very strong, and if you want to eat and drink well, you have to rely on her in the future. ”

As soon as he heard what Shen He said, he immediately asked, "My lord, where is the Pu Realm you are talking about? I'm going to find her!"

Shen He chuckled, raised his hand and mirage into the Pu Realm, and then transmitted the message to her, asking her to find Shen Qing by herself.

Sun Guangliang stepped forward and asked, "Master, do you want me to kill the carp essence and wild boar essence that I talked about?"

Shen He waved his hand and said, "Mirage didn't make the relationship between them clear, if we rashly killed them, it would be difficult for Mirage to explain." Let them be. ”

"It's fine. Sun Guang nodded brightly and no longer paid attention to the matter.

"Master, can I also go to the Pupu Realm to practice?" Song Tianbao plucked up his courage and said to Shen He.

Shen He smiled: "Of course you can." Before the words fell, Song Tianbao was included in the Pu Realm, and at the same time, he said: "There are many unknown places in the Pu Realm, and there are many dangers, if you just want to practice, stay in one place." If you want to experience, be careful. ”

"Knowing Master, I will be careful. Song Tianbao returned.

"What about you?" Shen He glanced at Sun Guangliang and asked, "Are you cultivating next to me, or are you following them into the Pupu Realm to cultivate?"

Sun Guangliang said: "Of course, I am here to accompany you." It's their business that their interest in cultivation is high, and I'm not so interested in cultivation, so I'm still here to accompany you. ”

Shen He was a little incomprehensible to Sun Guangliang, although he knew from the beginning that Sun Guangliang had embarked on an unusual path of cultivation, but he couldn't see clearly where Sun Guangliang's path ended.

In the past, he couldn't see Sun Guangliang clearly, because Sun Guangliang and his fate were too involved, and because of his own relationship, he couldn't see Sun Guangliang's future clearly. But now it's different, the interweaving between Sun Guangliang and him is getting shallower, and more and more belong to Sun Guangliang's own fate, that's it, Shen He can't see it clearly.

It's not that Shen He is conceited, but that the avenue is hard to find. If Sun Guangliang also embarked on an endless avenue, Shen He would be very happy. But if not, then Sun Guangliang will be very dangerous.

So, Shen He decided to talk to Sun Guangliang and figure out Sun Guangliang's cognition of "Dao". If Sun Guangliang knew what "Dao" was, it would prove that his previous worries were superfluous; if Sun Guangliang didn't know what "Dao" was, Shen He would give him a good science popularization. As for whether Sun Guangliang can understand what he is saying, it is not his concern.

The avenue is hard to find, the ancients had the sincerity of "hearing the Tao, dying at night", if Sun Guangliang doesn't even have this understanding, he can only say that he is "rotten wood is difficult to carve".

"Bright, let's talk. Shen He said.

Sun Guangliang said: "Okay, what are you talking about?"

Shen He said: "If we fight, who do you think will win or lose?"

Sun Guangliang said: "You are my master, of course I can't beat you." ”

"But," Shen He stared at Sun Guangliang's eyes and said, "You didn't say you would lose." ”

Sun Guangliang smiled and said, "Master, you don't think you're not my opponent, do you?"

Shen He shook his head and said, "I don't think I'm not your opponent, I just think you have the certainty of winning me." But I don't know where your certainty comes from, do you understand when I say that?"

"You want to figure it out?" asked Sun Guangliang.

"So we're going to have a fight. Shen He said.

Sun Guangliang smiled and said, "Forget it, if you fight, I will definitely not be your opponent; if you don't fight, you may not be able to win against me." Now that the odds are so high, why should I humiliate myself?"

Shen He changed his words and asked, "You are in the palm of my hand, if you want to come out, what can you do?"

Sun Guangliang thought for a moment and said, "I'm not in the palm of your hand, why do you want to find a way to come out?"

Shen He was overjoyed, and then asked, "Then where are you?"

"I'm right here. Sun Guangliang replied.

Shen He sighed secretly in his heart, and still asked, "Are you really here?"

Sun Guangliang said: "I'm not here, where else can I be?"

"Who are you?" asked Shen He.

Sun Guangliang looked puzzled and asked, "Master, I am me, not me." It doesn't make any sense for you to ask me that. ”

Shen He said: "You need to know that you are not you in order to know that you are you." If you don't know who you are, how can you know who you are? Where do you come from, where are you going? It's fate, it's not fate. You're hitting, and you're not hitting. ”

Sun Guangliang asked, "Master, are you talking to me about Zen?"

"You say yes, that's it. Shen He paused, and said, "If you say no, then it's not." ”

Sun Guangliang had a flash of inspiration in his mind, but he just couldn't grasp what Shen He said.

Zen is Zen, not Zen, I am me, not me, Tao is Tao, not Tao, life is life, not life......

It is not Zen, it is not me, it is not Tao, it is not life, it is Zen, it is me, it is Tao, it is life.

"Yes...... What?" Sun Guangliang slowly opened his eyes, looked at Shen He and asked, "Master, what is Zen? What am I?"

Shen He said: "What you say, it's what it is." ”

Sun Guangliang asked, "What is the 'Dao'?"

"What you say, that's what you say. Shen He still answered the same way.

Sun Guangliang pondered for a long time, and finally said to Shen He: "Master, I still don't know what 'Dao' is. ”

"You can teach!" Shen He said with a smile: "Do whatever you want, it is the Tao." ”

Sun Guangliang said: "But I can't do what I want. ”

Shen He said: "So you have to do whatever you want." ”

Sun Guangliang shook his head and said, "Master, I need time. ”

Shen He smiled and said nothing, he knew what Sun Guangliang was talking about "time", this could not be fast-forwarded, he needed to walk step by step before he could crack it.

Sun Guangliang also stopped talking, and sat quietly in front of Shen He, like an old monk in meditation.

Shen He sat on the spot, on the one hand, he felt the memories in his blood, and on the other hand, he practiced, although he was single-minded and dual-purpose, he did not interfere in the slightest.

In the blink of an eye, February has passed. Xiao Hei sent a message to Shen He, Qi Ya had arrived in the South China Sea with Qin Wuyang, and asked him if the "Nine Leaf Purple Orchid" was ripe.

Shen He said, "It will take a few days." If Wuyang is willing to come, let Qi Lao bring her over, if she is not willing to come, then wait for two more days. ”

Xiao Hei asked Qin Wuyang what he meant, sent a message to Shen He, and said, "Qin Wuyang is willing to come over now, then we will see you in the cave." ”

Shen He said: "I'll pick you up, there are too many poisoning insects in the desert, and you still have Wuyang with you, I don't worry." ”

Xiao Hei said: "This is too big a difference, isn't it? When I went out, I crossed the desert by myself, and no one cared about my life or death. Now that Qin Wuyang wants to come in, you will come to pick it up in person. Do you attach too much importance to Qin Wuyang, or do you pay too little attention to me?"

Shen He hurriedly comforted Xiao Hei and said, "I don't have any doubts about you being single and powerful that day, but now Qin Wuyang is an ordinary person, it is too dangerous for you and Qi Lao to escort her through the desert." Whether she's in danger or you're in danger, I regret it. ”

Xiao Hei still has a hard time understanding human feelings, but he still understands the meaning of Shen He's sycophancy, so he forgave Shen He's heavy color and light friend, and said: "Come here, I won't meet you this time." ”

Shen He had no choice but to say, "Thank you for a lot." Wait for me at the entrance, and I'll be there. ”
