Chapter 63: A Blameless Trip

The old leopard of the Great Elder Chixian is very interesting, and he threw back the taunt that Lu Zheng said to him just now. This means that you don't just talk about it, but talk about how to distinguish a stranger of unknown origin and different types from friend or foe. And Chi Xian also vaguely said that there is no so-called absolute answer to this kind of thing, it depends on whether Lu Zheng can say that he is satisfied, so as to decide whether Lu Zheng will stay or not.

Of course, Lu Zheng could completely ignore the Great Elder Chixian, and he didn't have to answer this kind of question, and walked away. If Tang Xiaojiu is replaced, I am afraid that it will be like this, in fact, in comparison, Tang Xiaojiu is clever and sleek, but in fact, his self-esteem is strong, so that as long as he has the slightest opportunity not to compromise, he will show himself. Although Lu Zheng is forbearant and evasive, he is warm-hearted, always taking into account the feelings of others and not bearing the sadness of others. In the current situation, he naturally cared about Chi Ling and didn't want to embarrass him too much.

What Lu Zheng was thinking about now was what Tang Xiaojiu would do if he faced this situation, at this time he felt strange things in his heart, he didn't know why he had always thought of Tang Xiaojiu since he left Da Lei Yin Mountain. And even his own state of mind seems to have changed, when talking to the master, he always unconsciously thinks of himself as Tang Xiaojiu, which makes him feel very strange.

Lose your mind in an instant, come back to your senses in an instant, let's deal with the problem of the Great Elder Chixian in front of you first. This question made Lu Zheng think a little, because recently he was following the orders of the master in white and learning to sense all things. After Elder Chixian's question, Lu Zheng vaguely felt that the two had something in common. All things in heaven and earth. Just like the vast sea of people, sensing all things, isn't it just to know all living beings? All things have their own nature, and people also have good and evil, and so are monsters. In the induction, Lu Zheng deeply perceived that all things in heaven and earth, every grass, tree, flower and stone, all have completely different physical properties, or miscellaneous, or messy, or ostentatious, or restrained. Fang is for people. It is that all living beings are uneven, and each has its own appearance.

Is there good and evil in all things in heaven and earth? This Lu Zheng did not understand it, nor did he think about it. Because the Great Elder Chixian asked whether the stranger was an enemy or a friend. Human or demon. There is always good and evil. But whether they are friends or foes is often not determined by good or evil. Heaven and earth contend with each other, and neither does it cease to be separated from good and evil.

So how can we tell whether the stranger in front of you is friend or foe? Lu Zheng's first thought was Mr. Le's words. All things are my friends. When Lu Zheng sensed the nature of all things in heaven and earth, he did feel Mr. Le's words. As more and more things are sensed, the feelings accumulated in his heart are getting richer and richer, the sense of the five internal organs and the heart of the seven emotions are becoming clearer and clearer, and he has a deeper insight into this, and all things can be connected and friends. What you see, you can give your heart feelings.

But at the same time, there is also mutual restraint and endless fighting between all things, which reminds Lu Zheng of Ye Xiaoqiu's words, as well as the words of the heavenly demon Chiyou heard from the master of the ethereal spirit, heaven and earth have the number of life and death to seek immortality, especially seeing that all things cannibalism, Lu Zheng once doubted whether he should kill and eat meat. If we are friends with all things, why do we kill them and eat their flesh?

In the midst of his thoughts, Lu Zheng suddenly felt that Elder Chixian's words seemed to be more than just as simple as he asked on the surface, as if he was studying his own understanding of the path of cultivation. This is not a question that can be answered so simply! Lu Zheng's cultivation has reached the realm of knowing the heart and attaining the perfection of the heart, and the so-called knowledge of the heart is different from ordinary people, and the mind is full of thoughts, and one thought is a line, and the body and mind do not contradict each other, and the form and spirit are in harmony with each other. Therefore, words and deeds are treated like each other, words are not separated from deeds and deeds are not separated from words, and they will not talk casually, let alone open their mouths.

Of course, this is not to say that Lu Zheng can't joke or lie, but basically, he won't deliberately go against his own thoughts, or exaggerate himself with false words, or cover up his actions with clever words, etc., nor will he let his behavior leave his thoughts, have so-called foolish behavior, or ignorant behavior, and the so-called sloppiness and carelessness of the world. If he has such words and deeds, it is his realm retreat. You must know that the realm before the realm of knowledge will recede.

Therefore, in the face of the question of the Great Elder Chixian, Lu Zheng should never play tricks in the first place, because what Chixian asked was actually how to deal with all things in Lu Zheng's cultivation. This is a very strict question, almost like a master in a cultivation sect to inspect the state of mind of a disciple. As far as the Great Elder Chixian asked, everything between heaven and earth is like this, and in general, the word friend or foe is just a friend, which either brings harm or help. In human terms, it is like the world's response to good times and bad times. Whether it is a human or a demon, they are all gradually growing up in such a situation of friends and enemies, and this is exactly what the Great Elder Chixian asked.

When people in the world deal with good times, they are often happy and harmonious in the face of friends and well-intentions, but sometimes they can't help but provoke arrogance and indulgence. And if you are in adversity, in the face of hostile and malicious people, you will often be hurt by them and have a grudge, and those who are strict will even resent the world for causing this to happen to themselves, or it is inconvenient to blame others and point out all kinds of misdeeds. As a result, they will be nurtured day by day, and eventually develop a character and have their own habits of dealing with others. And Lu Zheng once followed his teacher Li Yi to learn etiquette in the Sun and Moon Mansion, and he had learned various etiquette in dealing with things and standing up for others, and Li Yi naturally had all kinds of teachings about this......

Lu Zheng thought so much at once, and he didn't answer Elder Chixian's question for a long time, but the strange thing was that Elder Chixian didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, waiting quietly with a smile on his face on crutches, as if he had full patience. Seeing this situation, Chi Ling didn't understand the Great Elder's intentions for a while, and he couldn't interject, but he was secretly anxious in his heart.

After a while, Lu Zheng came out of his thoughts, his eyes were extremely clear, he glanced at Chi Ling, and then at Grand Elder Chi Xian, revealing a sly smile. Then Xiang Chixian bent down deeply, bowed, and then said, "The Great Elder asked this, and Lu Zhiyi was grateful. ”

Chi Ling blinked, not knowing what Lu Zheng thanked the Great Elder. looked at Chi Xian again and said, "You don't have to thank me, it's just a coincidence." Still, you have to answer my question. ”

Lu Zhengdao: "Of course, what the seniors asked, the juniors didn't dare not answer." The answer of the younger generation is also very simple, if you meet a stranger, the younger generation does not know whether the other party is friend or foe. ”

When Chi Ling heard this, his heart was broken, wouldn't Lu Zhiyi's words mean that he didn't answer? Now the Great Elder would definitely not let him enter the enchantment to recuperate. How do you know that Chixian laughed and tasted funny: "Oh, you can tell me in detail?"

Lu Zheng responded first, and then said: "The so-called ignorance of the younger generations is actually unpredictable, each other is just the first acquaintance, we should treat each other sincerely, and we should not predict them as friends and enemies. ”

Grand Elder Chixian narrowed his eyes and said, "Fortunately, we are friends, but unfortunately we are enemies?"

Lu Zheng became more and more respectful, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

The Great Elder of Chixian asked, "How about a friend, how about an enemy?"

Lu Zhengdao: "A friend is a friend, and an enemy is an enemy." ”

The Great Elder Chi Xian muttered, "After going around for a long time, you still haven't told me whether that stranger is friend or foe. What do you say about treating each other sincerely, I still have the same question just now, if someone pretends to be a friend and then becomes an enemy, then what?"

Lu Zheng smiled, glanced at Chi Ling, and suddenly smiled: "I wonder if the Great Elder has ever traveled to the human world?"

Chi Ling didn't know why he suddenly asked this, and interjected: "The Great Elder did travel to the world in his early years, and he also told us a lot of things in the world, saying that he had learned a lot in the world, and once persuaded us to go for a walk in the world!"

Lu Zheng smiled even more and said, "That's great, the younger generation is also from the world." Presumably, the Great Elder must have known that the rules in the world are that if you want to send others to do things, you have to pay wages. ”

Chi Ling was confused and didn't know what he was talking about, but the Great Elder Chi Xian lowered his face and said in a stern tone: "When I was walking in the human world, I once saw people in the human world, in order to make a living to become merchants, they exchanged things with others, and profited from them, and there was no lack of greed. Young man, you were born in the world, can't you imagine that you are also involved in this kind of vice?"

Lu Zheng hurriedly made a panicked look, but the smile on his face did not decrease by half, and said: "It's just a joke with the seniors, the juniors don't have any excessive demands, the seniors are serious." ”

Chi Xian also suddenly smiled slyly and said, "I'm just scaring you, although I'm old, I'm not a stubborn old leopard, haha." After speaking, he burst out laughing, and Lu Zheng also laughed. Chi Ling looked inexplicably on the side, just now it was still a posture where you came and went and I refused to relax at all, how could it suddenly seem that he had become a stranger, and they were familiar with each other.

After Lu Zheng laughed, he replied: "The question of the Great Elder just now, the junior answer is, do not take the blameless act. The younger generation once heard a senior with great powers and high moral integrity say that all things are his friends, and he once thought that such a realm is not something that the younger generation can dream of. Later, I realized that this is not an extremely high realm, but the original intention of treating all things, and I wish to be friends with all things, not enemies.

But as the predecessors said, if someone pretends to be my friend, he will come close at first, and then rebel. If I were a friend, would I not be harmed by it? I am afraid that the creatures between heaven and earth who are hurt by other creatures will have such confusion. Many of them thus seek to discern between good and evil and friend and foe, and then seek to blame themselves for their own actions, so that they can be protected from being deceived and saved themselves.

However, in the opinion of the younger generation, in this way, they will lose their true heart, not act in truth, practice in confusion, and ultimately be free from self-deception. In this way, I am afraid that I will search all the heavens and the earth, and I will not find the so-called trustworthy friends, and I will not find the so-called blameless deeds after exhaustive thinking. It's better to forget the difference between friend and foe, and feel it purely sincerely. Under the sincere feeling, you can often not be greedy for profit, not deceived by it, this is the right way to feel with things.

Even if he does show his hideous face in the end, I know that this person has always been an enemy and not a friend. Even if you suffer from it, you will not lose it after all. Otherwise, if you are suspicious everywhere, suspicious of everything, and even lose yourself, what are you talking about friends and enemies......?
