Chapter 34: Truth
The past is unbearable. Li Hong only indulged for a moment, and then remembered a little bit of reins in the horse, then packed up his mood and threw the old things back to the depths of the sea of knowledge again, and he would not be able to surface for a while.
Duanmu Youlan has something to say, except for Li Hong, no one else knows.
Yu Longzi didn't know how to answer, so he had to continue to tell the anecdotes of the six sects of the Daomen in the last ten years.
Duanmu Youlan has long cultivated into the third realm, she is a high-ranking Dao scholar, she is cold and dusty, and she is indifferent to many things, so she is far less aware of these Daoist affairs than the few junior disciples in front of her.
"In the past ten years, the Daomen have changed greatly, and there are divisions within the five sects, mainly the dispute between entering the WTO and leaving the world...... Most of us who have only cultivated into the second realm are still willing to walk in the human world, which is more beneficial to the improvement of cultivation and state of mind...... [Holy Fire Sect] has been active in the Central Plains in recent years, inciting mortals to fight against the Dao Sect, many of our fellow disciples and brothers are holding back their strength, wanting to compete with the [Holy Fire Sect], but the Dao Priests of various sects and sects are entangled in the Crossing Tribulation and Ascension, and they have no time or heart to ask about these things......
After Yulongzi finished speaking, Pan Chang also added: "[Tianque Mountain] is almost the same situation, but there are slightly more Taoist priests in the door who want to enter the world, and the relationship with [Yuqing Gate] is closer...... In fact, according to the ancient teachings, the so-called state of mind has nothing to do with whether or not you can ascend, so the top seniors are indifferent to this......
Li Hong nodded when he heard this, he had cultivated in the ninth life, and he was close to the completion of the tribulation several times, so he was extremely familiar with this. Daomen practice, unrestrained, I have never heard of anyone who is restricted because of his state of mind, unless it is a demon in his heart that is born suddenly and falls into the devil's path. However, the demon thing had been exterminated as early as the time of the thirty-two ancestors, and it could no longer pose any substantial harm.
"Then in terms of state of mind, how many of you think it's good to join the WTO?" Li Hong asked Pan Chang again, wanting to confirm his thoughts.
Pan Chang nodded without hesitation, and then glanced at a few of his fellow disciples: "I agree with the meaning of the Daoist friends of the Royal Dragon Son, the cultivation of the state of mind is actually better than entering the WTO, not to mention the complete external skills, the seven emotions and six desires in the world are the best way to improve oneself!"
The star picker beside Yulongzi also said: "The word Tao encompasses all kinds of things in the world. What can despair and desire do to help the state of mind? Human affection, benevolence, righteousness, and reason are all part of the Great Dao, and without these, the Dao Gate will become a tower in the sky, and the water and moon in the mirror will ......" After speaking, he lowered his voice again, and looked at Duanmu Youlan with some vigilance, and then said: "It's not a few Dao scholars hearsay, I don't know where I heard it, saying that desire and emotion are the biggest obstacles when ascending, and the power of the Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulation will be doubled because of this!"
Duanmu Youlan knew that because he was a great scholar, he had some scruples about picking stars, and he didn't show the slightest anger when he heard this. Not only did he not get angry, but he showed a slight smile, and then glanced at Li Hong.
Li Hong immediately transmitted: "This is absolutely unreasonable! The Forty-Nine Heavenly Tribulation has nothing to do with the monk's state of mind, it is completely because he has too much heaven and earth aura, so he has been counterattacked by heaven and earth!"
Li Hong and Duanmu Youlan, both of whom were Dao scholars, listened quietly without interrupting, so several disciples opened the conversation and expressed their opinions one after another.
Whacking Qin and He Mu are both cultivating [Dao Mu], so they don't know much about it, so they can't interject. Although Guangling was not as demented as he was ten years ago, he still looked at Duanmu Youlan from time to time, thinking something else in his heart, and he didn't care about the conversation in front of him. What's more, he is a cultivator of swordsmanship, so he actually doesn't know much about the secrets within the five sects of Daomen.
Xu Shengjie is a clever monster, he listens quietly, not daring to speak casually, but he still can't help but let out a few chuckles from time to time to show that he has different opinions. He thought that he had been forgotten, but he didn't expect Li Hong to suddenly ask: "You seem to have some opinions about entering and being born?"
The rest of the people heard Li Hong ask the little monster, and they all quieted down and looked at Xu Shengjie.
Monsters are insignificant in the eyes of the Daomen, especially the little monster with only one Yuan Dan, but since Li Hong opened his mouth to ask, everyone also paid attention out of politeness.
Xu Shengjie was taken aback, and then thought that there was only one chance left for the talisman in his body, so he stiffened his head at the moment, and didn't care whether he heard his words or not, and didn't dare to hide it, so he immediately said everything he thought in his heart.
"A few Dao masters, Dao grandmothers, don't be surprised if you don't listen to the little ones...... Xu Shengjie knew that he had to tell the truth, and he would inevitably offend the Daomen disciples in front of him, so he couldn't help but sue Rao first, and then cut to the chase.
"If you want me to say, what is born and entered the world is nothing, and what Taoist priests pursue is immortality, as long as they can live forever, what does it matter if they enter the world and be born? What is the difference? This is completely a matter of method, and there is no either/or paradox......
It's like eating zongzi, you can eat whatever you like, whether it's sweet or salty, and you can't eat it with salty and sweet, right?......?
And the idea of being born is particularly ridiculous, what is the desire to abandon desires and cultivate a state of mind? Why does it have to be like this?...... If you want to give up your desires, you can't be attached to immortality in the first place, but if you don't seek immortality and don't need to ascend to the Purple Mansion, then what kind of Tao do you cultivate?...... Therefore, we [Holy Fire Cult] do not teach people to pursue immortality, but only teach people to live in the present moment...... What kind of love, desire, as long as it does not harm the world, what is the difference between it and the desire for immortality?"
After Xu Shengjie finished speaking, he let out a sigh of relief, looked east, looked west, and saw that everyone was silent and not angry, so he was a little relieved.
"These words are from your bishop?" asked Li Hong nonchalantly.
Xu Shengjie thought for a moment and nodded: "Most of the truth is what the sect leader said, and I have carefully pondered some of the ......" After speaking, he stroked his chest, and there was no feeling of electric shock, so he was completely relieved, it seems that his answer is indeed true.
In fact, Xu Shengjie himself couldn't be sure, because these words [Holy Fire Sect] were preached everywhere. After a long time, Xu Shengjie himself couldn't remember which truths were originally in his mind, and which truths were instilled by the sect leader later.
If it weren't for Li Hong's question, Xu Shengjie would not have suddenly discovered that his current thinking was already very different from ten years ago. Perhaps, everything comes from the Master, and the eloquent Master has the magic to easily convey his thoughts to the Sect Leader, and the Sect Disciple is inadvertently influenced and subtly absorbs the Master's point of view. The next time I also gushed these truths, I didn't feel that these truths belonged to me in the first place.
Own? Not your own?
After being silent for a moment, Whoo Qin took the lead in breaking the silence and silence, and couldn't help but praise: "You little monster, your cultivation is not high, but what you say really makes some sense......
