Chapter 27: State of Mind

At the beginning of the moon, the blue sky is dotted with twinkling stars, occasionally a comet crosses, the soft moonlight sprinkles on the forest, the shadows of the trees are scattered, the birds chirp on the branches, the breeze blows, and the grass rustles.

A bonfire swayed in the wind, a piece of barbecue meat was set on the bonfire, the grease dripped in the fire, making a sizzling sound, and two people sat next to the bonfire, and the flickering flames reflected on the faces of the two, revealing a touch of red.

Tang Min held the freshly roasted Jiao meat in his hand and feasted on it, and the fat kept overflowing from his cheeks, "It's delicious, it's delicious." He said vaguely.

The scalper looked at Tang Min with a smile, "Slow down, there's more." I cut off a piece myself and ate it.

The cattle also cut a piece of roasted Jiao meat and chewed it slowly.

Looking at Tang Min's appearance of eating Jiao meat, the scalper suddenly felt very envious, the carefree era has left him, and there may never be such a good time again.

"Why don't you eat it? If you don't eat it, I'll have it all. Tang Min didn't wait for the scalper to answer, so he quickly took the remaining Jiao meat in his hand and chewed it.

"Tang Min"

"Hmm"

"It's already at the Shushan realm, and we're going to break up tomorrow, I want to talk to you about something. The scalper looked at Tang Min and said.

"Tang Min, we have arrived at the boundary of Shushan Mountain, and we will break up after tonight. The scalper put his hands behind his head, lay on the grass, looked at the starry sky, and couldn't help but think of the starry night when he was separated from the Yiren, and a faint sadness came to his heart, and he couldn't help but sigh softly.

"What's wrong with you?" Tang Min obediently touched the scalper's arm, rested his head on the scalper's shoulder, and also lay on the grass, staring at the scalper's face full of sorrow.

Since she met the scalper again in the Tianshan Mountains, Tang Min's heart didn't know when she had a strong dependence on the scalper, she didn't know whether this feeling was good or bad, but she enjoyed it very much.

"Do you really want to break up? It's so hard that you can't use Niu Lianshi or other identities to go to Shushan with me?"

"Shushan is not suitable for me, everyone has their own way, after these things, I found that my own cultivation is far from enough, I want to walk around, travel, one is to enrich myself, the other is to find the direction of their future development. The scalper said slowly.

"Wow, wow, take me along, I like to travel everywhere the most!" Tang Min turned over and put his arm on the chest of the scalper, looking at the scalper with a look of joy, and the two cute little white rabbits were beating naughtily, looming.

"Cough, cough, I said, Miss, can you stabilize the point, this will easily cause the urge to commit a crime!" Scalper Niu hurriedly grabbed Tang Min's arm and wanted to push her away.

"Oops!" I don't know if it was unintentional or coincidental, Tang Min's arm was weak, and he fell into the arms of the scalper.

Tang Min buried his head deep in the arms of the scalper, his heart was like a thousand small drums beating, there was a kind of expectation, a kind of fear, and more sweetness.

The scalper's hands stopped in mid-air, he didn't know what to do, he was not a pedantic person, but under this familiar starry night, there was no idea, and the scenes of Tang Min's acquaintance to the present flashed in his mind one by one like a movie, and a touch of tenderness rose in his heart, and he gently stroked Tang Min's hair with his hand.

Tang Min waited for a long time, but nothing happened to him, as if relieved, and with a hint of resentment, he raised his peach-blossom-like cheeks and whispered like a mosquito: "Can you hug me?"

The scalper was relieved in his heart, sat up, hugged Tang Min in his arms, straightened Tang Min for a while, and said softly: "From now on, as long as you are in any danger, as long as I know, no matter what the mountains and rivers, I will rush to your side." ”

"Why aren't you always by my side?" Tang Min leaned his head on the shoulder of the scalper cow and said faintly as he looked at the starry sky.

The scalper also looked at the sky, his face full of confusion, "Because in the midst of the stars, a beautiful girl is waiting for me." ”

A heart-rending pain hit his heart, and the scalper was overwhelmed every time he thought about it, and he suddenly hated this starry night.

Tang Min suddenly found that the scalper's face was distorted, and he looked very painful, and he panicked, not knowing what to do, so he cried loudly.

This frightened the scalper, woke up from the pain, hurriedly hugged Tang Min in his arms, lightly haired, whispered to comfort him for a long time, Tang Min stopped crying with sobs, and buried his head in the arms of the scalper cow in embarrassment.

"Can you tell me your story? Maybe talking will release your feelings, and you'll be a little more relaxed. Tang Min looked at the scalper sincerely.

The moon slowly rose into the sky, the shadows of the trees swayed, and the bonfire swaying in the wind crackled.

After speaking, the scalper cow stood up, looking up at the stars in the sky and couldn't help but feel stunned, Tang Min also obediently held the scalper's arm with both hands, leaned his head on the scalper's shoulder, closed his eyes, and enjoyed this temporary tranquility.

The two of them stood like this, neither of them moving, and the bonfire kept flashing the shadow of the two.

It took a long time for the scalper to recover from his sad mood, and his heart was peaceful, as if he had really let go.

"It's good to be able to look at the stars with you, but it's a pity that your heart is not in this starry night!" Tang Min said faintly.

"There will be a handsome guy who will really accompany you to watch the stars!" Scalper Niu patted Tang Min's head lovingly.

When you want to accompany me to see the stars, come to the back mountain of Shu Mountain to find me in our separate places, and I will wait for you there every starry night. After saying that, he hid his face and ran away.

The scalper Niu watched Tang Min leave his back, and didn't chase after him, even if he caught up, he didn't know how to comfort himself, and he couldn't give her any promises.

The scalper cow came out of his mind and dodged and chased in the direction where Tang Min left. Today's Shushan is also not at peace, the proboscis incident caused a conflict between Shushan and the demon clan, and Tang Min was secretly sent back to Shushan, which was also to calm the guilt in his heart.

The next day, the ox left Shushan, slowly and aimlessly all the way to the east, like ordinary people, see the mountains and see the mountains, see the water and play in the water, watch the joys and sorrows in the rolling red dust, understand the various states of mind, think about the road they want to take in the future, and find their own way.

"What is the Tao, where does the Tao come from, why do you want to cultivate the Tao?" the scalper kept asking himself, as if he was looking to the sky.

"From a person who falls to the ground to birth, old age, sickness and death, where does life come from, and where does death go?"

"Is there reincarnation in this heaven and earth, and what does reincarnation represent?"

......

Countless questions echoed in the mind of the scalper, with these questions, the scalper passed through the cities, the mountains and rivers, as if a passerby, jumping out of the world, watching coldly, the heart was calm, no joy or sorrow, some are just the essence of things in the eyes, the experience of various Taoism.

During this period, the scalper Niu saw the title of the gold list, the joy of the flowers and candles in the cave room, and also saw the brothers who drew knives against each other for the family wealth, and the father and son killed each other; I saw the elope for love, and I also saw the blood splashed five steps because of love and hatred; I also saw the gentleman being frank and laughing at life, and also saw the conspiracy and tricks of the laughing people, and the tricks and tricks of the camp .......

The cattle and cattle have seen the rise and fall on the top of the mountain, watched the moon and the full moon in Daze, walked in the drizzle, groaned in the breeze, trekked in the torrent, and shouted in the wind.

In this way, the scalper came all the way east, and he didn't feel that his soul was becoming more and more quiet, and a dusty temperament was gradually forming, which was not a change in cultivation, but a state of mind, a realm, and spiritual silence!

Unconsciously, the scalper cow actually reached the spiritual silence period in his state of mind, which means that as long as there are the most sufficient spirit stones, the scalper cow can directly cultivate the spiritual silence period without any bottleneck!

The period of spiritual silence is a kind of spiritual transformation, the mind is empty, not happy with things, not sad with oneself, detached from the world, the heart is like stagnant water, the soul is like a silent lake, and there will be no ripples.

The scalper did not stop cultivating, improving his cultivation, immersed in this state of mind, and continued to walk eastward, this time, the scalper came to a high mountain, the mountain was majestic, and the cliffs were numerous.

Suddenly, there was a ticking horn, and the ox followed the sound, only to see a funeral procession at the foot of the mountain, along the steep mountain road, spiraling upwards towards the top of the mountain.

The funeral procession is about twenty or thirty people, all wrapped in sackcloth, the people in front of them are holding spirit flags, and handfuls of paper money are scattered into the air, in the middle is a large coffin carried by eight people, and a few people in the back are holding thick ropes in their hands, and then there are musicians who are holding trumpets and suona blowing, the music is cheerful, and there is no sound of sadness.

The ox cow was curious for a while, so he followed behind, wanting to see what was going on, the funeral procession went all the way forward, to a cliff, the ox cow wondered in his heart, he only heard about burial, cremation, water burial, this coffin to the mountain, not just what burial method.

To the top of the cliff, everyone put down the coffin, a few people with ropes in the rear, trapped the rope on the coffin, several people lifted the coffin with eight hands and feet, threw it from the top of the cliff to the bottom of the cliff, and then slowly slid the coffin down, and then, someone slid down the cliff along the rope, for a long time, those people climbed up along the rope again, put away the rope, burned the spirit flag and paper money, and went down the mountain one after another.

After the funeral people had gone away, they came to the cliff, leaned over and looked down, and were immediately ......very excited.
