The poem says: Delusion is always hidden in the maze, how to seek the source of the truth to extinguish it? Enlightenment becomes a positive result in an instant, and obsession with ten thousand calamities will sink forever. If you can cultivate the truth with one thought, you will get rid of the mud and dirt for thousands of years.

Outside the Dao Division, the atmosphere was deadlocked, and there was a lot of intention to do it, but Shi Zixuan, who was in retreat, didn't notice it at all.

But there is no need to be outside at all.

As mentioned earlier, there is another mystery in this wind whip. was introduced into the Xuan Realm, and Shi Zixuan also came to a most eccentric situation.

If there are no dreams, what kind of dreams are the most terrifying?

Some people say it is the Ten Realms of Hell, and some people say it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire.

In fact, this is not the most sinister. For cultivators, the most dangerous thing is the Xuan Realm, which is the same as the real shijie.

At this moment, how many Xuan realms have been experienced, Shi Zixuan is already very tired at this time, and his spirit is weak, but fortunately, he has not been lost.

"Have you experienced another Xuan Realm?" Shi Zixuan opened his eyes again and found himself lying on the bed, although mentally tired, he still said to himself happily: "Who am I this time?"

It is actually very difficult to experience different realms and different people. For example, you are a man, but in the metaphysical realm, you have become a woman, not only have to experience all the physiological reactions of women, but also have to raise husbands and children. Awkward, of course, but you don't have a choice.

In the Xuan Realm, you are not you, but you are the same as you. All joys, sorrows, and sorrows, all things that you see, hear, and feel, should be shared with you.

At the beginning, with Shi Zixuan's temperament, he was extremely uncomfortable, and it was difficult to turn a blind eye. It is also because of this that Shi Zixuan knows that the great achiever who has achieved the realm of true immortals and great bodhisattvas can jump out of reincarnation and watch the world like me. It's how hard it is.

Shi Zixuan touched his body and said with a secret smile: "Fortunately, I didn't become a woman in this world." ”

Just as he was about to get up, suddenly someone outside pushed the door in, Shi Zixuan was sitting up, and he heard a familiar voice say: "Brother Guanzhu, get up, it's time for us to go out." ”

Shi Zixuan was slightly stunned, this voice is so familiar, and when he looked at it, he was wearing new clothes. The little girl with pink makeup, who else is not Bai Duoduo?

Shi Zixuan was surprised and suspicious: "Duoduo?"

Bai Duoduo said: "I'm here, Brother Guanzhu, why do you look weird today?"

Shi Zixuan was speechless, and he himself was puzzled: "Am I not in the Xuan Realm that the master has been refining in the Wind Festival Whip? Why am I actually Yujian Blossom here? Could it be that I have already come out of the Xuan Realm?"

"Brother Guanzhu?" Seeing that Shi Zixuan was in a daze, Bai Duoduo was also a little confused.

Shi Zixuan asked, "Duoduo, where are we now?"

Bai Duoduo said: "It's in the Dao Division." ”

Shi Zixuan was even more surprised: "Am I not in retreat?"

Bai Duoduo said with a confused face: "Brother Guanzhu, you were out of the customs yesterday." Today is the day of the Land and Water Festival, have you forgotten?"

Shi Zixuan was puzzled, and said secretly: "Why don't I have any memory? Could it be that I have experienced the Xuan Realm for too long and consumed too much." Genshin retreat?"

Bai Duoduo said again at this time: "Brother Guanzhu, hurry up and wash up." Don't keep the deacon grandpa waiting. ”

Shi Zixuan nodded and immediately got up.

Participating in the water and land puja naturally requires a change of outfit. Fortunately, Sima Daozi was ready for him. It is a crane riding cloud robe. A plain color, simple and elegant.

After showering and changing, I went out. But seeing Sima Daozi just happened to greet him, he smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, congratulations on getting out of the customs." ”

Shi Zixuan returned the ceremony and smiled bitterly: "I came out of retreat, but it seems that I haven't woken up from a big dream, and now I am still a little confused, which makes Daoist friends smile." ”

Sima Daozi comforted: "It's nothing, most of the people who come out of retreat have a similar situation, and they are not alone in the Taoist. ”

Shi Zixuan smiled and said, "Don't talk about this, I don't know where today's water and land festival will be held?"

Sima Daozi said with a smile: "Such a grand event is naturally in the imperial city. The Holy Son of Heaven is gracious, and this puja was not held in the Dalong Temple as is customary, but is located in the Chaobai Temple in the inner city. ”

"What kind of place is Asahyakuin?"

Sima Daozi said: "It was built by the order of the Son of Heaven, it is a tower courtyard, and there is a high tower in it, with a total of 33 floors, called the Star Picking Tower. ”

Shi Zixuan sighed: "Thirty-three floors, it's really high enough." ”

Sima Daozi said: "Daoyou seems to be a little unaccustomed?"

Shi Zixuan said: "It doesn't count. It's just that I feel that there are people in this world who build towers, and they always think that taking numbers is auspicious. In fact, the extreme is only nine, and the super is the same, which is useless. ”

Sima Daozi also nodded and said, "That's the truth." When I came to the middle school, in the Taoist temple, I always saw those pilgrims who came to worship the incense. A good generosity, a few pieces of silver money will be sent to the merit box. I always persuade them to come, and put the money in the merit box, one dollar, five dollars, and nine dollars. Take the number of nine for good luck, and more than one penny is no different. However, they always don't believe it, as if they can accumulate more merit by putting more money. ”

Sima Daozi is talking about common things in the world. Some people, on the one hand, are not accustomed to the Buddhist temple and Taoist temple to set up merit boxes, but when they enter the temple and enter the temple, they pay more generously than anyone else. Even 100,000 yuan for hair incense, there are many people to do it.

What kind of psychology is this? It is the concept of buying and selling profits in my heart, it seems that I have paid more money, and this immortal Buddha and Bodhisattva can give me some face and protect me more.

But in reality, it's useless, 100,000 yuan is not more than 9 yuan, so if you want to throw money into the merit box, 1 yuan, 3 yuan, 9 yuan is fine, don't exceed 9 yuan, it's meaningless, it's a waste of money, and it's easier for monks to break the money vow.

And the same is true of the star-picking platform in the white courtyard, the ninth floor is already the most, and the thirty-third floor is the most, but it is not necessary, it is just a waste of money and labor.

Of course, Shi Zixuan and Sima Daozi only sighed a few times, but they were powerless to change anything.

Walking all the way to the door, the two monsters have been waiting there for a long time.

"Sir. The two monsters stepped forward to salute.

Shi Zixuan suddenly asked, "Where did Di Ting go?"

Zhang Qing immediately said: "His Holiness left early this morning, and I don't know where I went. ”

Di Ting is gone?

Shi Zixuan is a little strange, Di Ting, who likes to be lively so much, is actually gone now?

"Did His Holiness say where he went?" Shi Zixuan asked.

Several people shook their heads.

Shi Zixuan nodded and said, "Maybe he has other important things, then we won't wait for him." ”

Zhang Qing said: "Master, the carriage is ready. Let's go. ”

Shi Zixuan nodded, and everyone got into the car together.

Nothing to say all the way. After entering the imperial city, the guards were extremely strict today. Even if Sima Daozi was accompanied, the investigation along the way was extremely strict, although there was no body search, but Shi Zixuan knew that there were many cultivators in the secret, and he would definitely not let people with ulterior motives get involved.

After the inventory is completed, there will be a special person to guide the way.

But he didn't immediately go to the White Temple. Instead, he went to other courtyards to rest first.

Shi Zixuan was puzzled: "Why don't you go directly?"

The escort who led the way explained, "The puja will not be held until dark, but there are too many people coming, and it will take a lot of time to verify your identity, so you can only be wronged to wait here first. ”

"I see. Shi Zixuan nodded very understandingly.

In the past 50 years, the two major events of Buddhism and Taoism will be held again, and whether it is two monks from all over the world, or a side door of the outer way, they will come, and the number of people will naturally not be small.

The guard smiled and said, "Then please ask the Taoist to rest here in peace, and the time is approaching." I'll show the way for the Taoist again. ”

"Okay, you can do it yourself. Shi Zixuan nodded.

A little waiting time is nothing to Shi Zixuan. But after a moment's pause, it passed in the blink of an eye.

When the hour came, the guard came and called the door.

When I entered the Chaobai Courtyard, it was really crowded. But I saw that the yarn was brightly lit. Baoding Xiangyun is shining, the monk Fahua is bright, and the festival is a grand event.

"Xuanzi Daoyou. See you for a long time. ”

As soon as Shizi Xuan stepped into the courtyard, before he entered, he heard someone call his name. He looked for a sound, and it was Zhang Xiao, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Zhang Daoyou, you're here too. Seeing Zhang Xiao, Shi Zixuan was also very happy, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Zhang Xiao smiled: "Such a grand event, how can I not come to join in the fun?"

The two talked and laughed, and one of the people next to Zhang Xiao suddenly asked, "Senior Brother Zhang, who is this?"

Zhang Xiao patted his forehead and said, "Look at me, I forgot to introduce, Senior Brother Liu, this is the Xuanzi Daoist who helped my sect find the lost property." ”

The old Taoist's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "It turned out to be my benefactor, a fellow Daoist, a poor Daoist Nine Spirits, commonly known as Liu Long, I have seen it." ”

Shi Zixuan also hurriedly returned the salute and said, "It's just a gesture." No thanks. ”

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "Daoyou don't have to be humble, I don't know if you come by yourself or ......"

Shi Zixuan smiled and said: "I haven't set up my own door yet, and I still have the division commander in front of me? ”

Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "In that case, why don't you come with me?"

Shizi Xuan was just about to speak, when he suddenly heard someone behind him shouting: "Senior Brother Xuanzi." ”

Shi Zixuan was a little puzzled, there was still someone who knew him?

Looking back, it was actually the Shenxiu monk and the little monk Yuanxiang who went to Tianlong Temple and had no news. The nature of shouting oneself is that Yuanzhen.

"Buddha friends, little brother Yuanzhen, you are here. ”

Shi Zixuan smiled, smiled apologetically with Zhang Xiao and the man, and greeted him.

Monk Shenxiu smiled and said, "I originally wanted to go to the Daoist Division to find Daoyou to go together, but when we went, Daoist friends had already taken a step ahead. Fortunately, Yujian is here, otherwise it would be difficult to find a fellow Daoist friend when he entered the Star Picking Tower. ”

Shi Zixuan smiled and said: "It's all Sima Daoyou, I'm afraid that I will delay the hour, so I will leave a little early......" Shi Zixuan didn't finish speaking, and suddenly saw that Monk Shenxiu's face suddenly became unnatural.

"Buddha friend?" Shi Zixuan asked with a frown.

Monk Shenxiu's face suddenly showed a little excited, he took a deep breath, lowered his voice, and said slowly: "Fellow Daoist, I just suddenly had a sense. The lost property in my temple is in this star-picking tower!" (To be continued......)
