Chapter 17: Stumbling
For some reason, after hearing the sound outside the door, the taste of the wine in my mouth changed dramatically. After eating a few cups indiscriminately, Lin Zhongyu did not feel sleepy at all.
Sitting at the head of the bed, I started to do my homework every day again, looking at my nose, my nose and my heart, and my heart. It has been ten years since Lin Zhongyu first came into contact with the Dao Law, and he has never stopped sitting and forgetting the way of heaven for a day.
Although he did not make the slightest progress day after day, year after year, he never regretted it and never doubted himself. Over time, he actually found a wonderful use of the way of sitting and forgetting the heavens, whenever he was troubled, or irritable and confused, he cultivated the way of sitting and forgetting the heavens, and he could surprisingly calm down.
Taoism is about being quiet and inactive, and going with the flow. Sitting on the way of forgetting heaven is the supreme secret of Taoism, and it is of course more than enough for cultivating the mind and adopting nature. This is also an important reason why Lin Zhongyu's personality has not gone to extremes after being despised by everyone for a long time and being snubbed.
More perhaps, Lin Zhongyu's heart will always be just such a child who doesn't grow up, doing what he thinks is right, liking the people he likes, and only changing the world.
But today, his heart couldn't calm down no matter what, even if he had reached the threshold of the third or fourth level of the Heavenly Dao, which was relatively easy to settle. His state of mind could not be settled.
In the end, he finally gave up, but at that time, the words "Heaven and earth care about the hand, and all things are born in the heart" involuntarily appeared in his mind. These ten big characters are like a hammer hitting his heart. Everything in heaven and earth is in the palm of your hand. Can human beings really reach that state? So, he once again had that entire Heavenly Dao General Outline in his mind. The strange thing is that unconsciously, I forgot about things outside my body and quietly settled down.
There was a faint imperceptible red halo on his neck, and the center of the halo was the crescent moon that could not be smaller than a three-foot jade.
The general outline of the way of heaven is broad and profound. Even if you forget the way of heaven, I am afraid it is difficult to compare with it, but such a profound and mysterious method, Lin Zhongyu has repeatedly searched in his memory, but he has not seen such a record in any classics. This made Lin Zhongyu a little apprehensive in his heart, but after a few practices, he dispelled his worries. I heard that the two exercises of good and evil are incompatible with each other, and this general outline of the Heavenly Dao, although it seems to be somewhat contrary to the Heavenly Dao, there are also many places that directly point to the Great Dao.
Every time Lin Zhongyu finished cultivating the Heavenly Dao General Outline, he always felt a slight chill all over his body. This is something that cultivation does not have in the Heavenly Dao!
I don't know how long it took, Lin Zhongyu opened his eyes. The mantra of the Heavenly Dao General Compendium was still echoing in his ears, and the strange feeling of coolness on his body slowly disappeared. When he looked down, he inadvertently noticed that the necklace hanging around his neck seemed to be a little brighter, but he didn't take it to heart.
It was late at night, and the sparse sound of rain outside the window came in a messy and disorderly manner.
When I walked into the window, I saw a clump of bamboo outside, planted outside the window. Take a deep breath of fresh and cool breath, and you can't help but feel shocked. A small pavilion in the center of the courtyard, standing quietly in the dark, surrounded by some unknown flowers, only a few spots of white can be seen, and the other flowers are unrecognizable at night. Several paths, each leading to the corridor around the compound. It seems to be for the convenience of the guests.
Gently push open the door and walk into the courtyard, the wind is not very strong, and the rain is dripping.
Walk quietly on the gravel path and look at the unknown flowers and plants. After a while, they walked into the small pavilion.
The kiosk is not big. A stone table carved with a chessboard, four stone drums.
Lin Zhongyu picked up a stone drum and sat down.
There are a lot of people living in the surrounding guest rooms, and from time to time there are dreams of people who are sleeping. It makes people feel more and more quiet and lazy this night.
And just like that, he sat there motionless.
I don't know when it began, the courtyard changed, and the flowers and plants all over the ground seemed to turn purple in the dark, and then a familiar fragrance came.
"Purple Mandala!" Lin Zhongyu said in a low voice.
At this moment, suddenly at the edge of Lin Zhongyu's eyes, a white skirt appeared silently. Lin Zhongyu was so excited that he couldn't help himself, turned around, his eyes were full of joy, and said, "Teacher"
Before the rest of the sentence was finished, for some reason the corners of the white skirt became a pink palace dress. Even the courtyard has changed back to its original appearance.
There was a bang, a sparse sound of rain, and in the gazebo, no one spoke to the pair of young men and women who were quietly staring.
Xiao Benben has never met a man's eyes that are so hot to him, that kind of look is not desire, not flattery. It's a fervent anticipation and joy. Especially when I heard the word "teacher", I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.
"Uh, Miss Xiao. Lin Zhongyu said a little stiffly.
Xiao Benben smiled, like a spring breeze blowing, and no one could see what she was thinking.
"Senior Brother Lin, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here!"
When Lin Zhongyu heard her "Senior Brother Lin", she felt very twisted. is obviously a girl who is one or two years younger than herself, but she calls herself a junior brother. I can't help but feel angry and funny.
"Huh!" Lin Zhongyu bowed his head and replied.
"Hey, Senior Brother Lin didn't sleep so late, is there something on his mind?" Xiao Benben said as he looked at Lin Zhongyu's back with a smile. At this moment, Xiao Benben was like a little girl, staring at herself with beautiful eyes.
Lin Zhongyu even suspected that his eyes were wrong, in his mind, such an expression would definitely not appear on Xiao Benben, who could take people's hearts as soon as he appeared. But that's exactly what happened.
Lin Zhongyu opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say? The two of them have met twice at most, how can this matter begin?
"No, nothing?"
"Oh, Senior Brother Lin, are you still embarrassed with me?"
“”
“”
In the face of Xiao Benben's crazy verbal offensive, Lin Zhongyu either nodded or gave a short answer, and before he knew it, the two of them really talked. As for the content, it is all over the world, and everything is tolerated.
Hearing Lin Zhongyu say that he had read books with his unforgettable senior sister for ten years, Xiao Benben's delicate face was full of envy, and he said crisply: "You have read so many books, but I don't know a few words!
Lin Zhongyu is the only thing that should be. Later, Lin Zhongyu realized, "In the future, how can we have a future?"
They didn't know that while they were talking, there was a figure standing in the corner of the courtyard, behind a dark rockery. The figure clenched the sword in his hand tightly, but his heart was cold.
I don't know what Xiao Benben said, and Lin Zhongyu's simple laughter came. The figure finally quietly retreated, but its steps were a little staggering.
