Chapter 22 The Fruit of Success
What is Heavenly Creation? It sounds like this term is very esoteric and incomprehensible, and it is very incomprehensible. But Huang Weiyang said that he was stealing the heavens on this tree for his use, so he couldn't help but stand up, walked a little farther, and took a good look at this strange tree. At this glance, I can see some clues.
I saw that there were a lot of bumps on the smooth trunk of the tree, and it seemed that there were branches growing from there, but for some reason someone cut them down. In this way, the tree has become the appearance of the big umbrella it is now, and it is actually pruned by man, not its original appearance. Huang Weiyang asked, could it be that he was the one who cut off the branches, Lu Zheng suddenly felt a little ridiculous, making this tree like this, is it a chance to steal the sky?
But looking left and right, there was nothing else special, Lu Zheng asked cautiously: "When you say the Heaven Stealing Machine, you don't mean pruning the branches of this tree, right?"
Huang Weiyang put his hands behind his back, stepped forward and patted the trunk of the tree, the tree was so thick that it was estimated that ten Huang Weiyang could not hold it, but as his palm slapped, there was a rustling sound of leaves shaking on it. Huang Weiyang nodded with great satisfaction and said, "That's right, how about it, isn't it very beautifully trimmed!"
Lu Zheng was almost dizzy, and said with a smile: "No, this is what you said about stealing the sky, you are obviously stealing branches, stealing all the branches of other people, and using them to grill fish and eat them?"
Huang Weiyang rolled his eyes and said, "Am I so greedy?" Besides, wouldn't it be a pity to use the branches of this Yuan tree to grill fish, and those branches were sent by me for other purposes. How, listen to what you say. I don't believe that this is the method of stealing the heavens. ”
Lu Zheng still smiled, and said: "I don't believe it, you are clearly pruning the tree, if this is the method of stealing the sky, I would have known it a long time ago." When I was still alive, there was an orchard near the temple where I lived, and I used to go there to steal fruit to eat. Later, I was caught by the old man who was in charge of the garden, but he didn't blame me for stealing food, he neither beat me nor scolded me, and asked me to go to him generously if I wanted to eat fruit in the future. Just don't take it without telling you anymore.
This old man will prune fruit trees. At that time, I ate a lot of fruit from him, and when I saw that he was pruning, I wanted to help him with the work, but I ended up cutting indiscriminately. He was beaten by him. Then teach me the doorway of pruning. It is necessary to face the sun to separate the branches of the tree into yin and yang, old and strong, and withered and glorious. It is necessary not only to prune off the shade branches, old branches, and dead branches, but also to protect the yang branches and the glory branches to avoid uneven sparseness and collision with each other. It is also necessary to tidy up the strong branches, so that there is no excessive fruit hanging on one branch, lest the fruit be small and astringent.
Later, I arrived at the Sun Moon Lu, there are a lot of words in the flower garden of the Sun Moon Lu, basically Mr. Le is taking care of it, he does it more carefully, because the flowers are different, the time of watering and loosening the soil is different, and the fertilizer used is also different...... Mr. Le said that he planted flowers just to look good. I've learned all this, and I haven't heard him say that this is a thief, according to what you say, Mr. Le counts, the old man in charge of the garden in the world, he will also steal the heavenly machine, he is not a cultivator. Huh!"
When Lu Zheng said this, he felt very reasonable, but he said: "Lu Zheng, why should I lie to you, this is indeed the method of stealing the heavens and creating the world, almost everyone can do it, and why do you have to be a cultivator to do it? Do you think what I said is funny? Do you think that between heaven and earth, only cultivators are cultivating? Do you think that there is really any difference between cultivators and people in the world?"
Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you mean by this?"
Huang Weiyang smiled and said, "Let me ask you, what have you eaten in the mountains these days?"
Lu Zheng didn't know what he meant, and said, "I eat wild fruits and all kinds of birds and beasts, what's wrong?"
Huang Weiyang asked, "Did you conjure those wild fruits, and did you raise those birds and beasts?"
Lu Zheng: "What do you mean......"
Huang Weiyang said with a smile: "Whether it is these wild fruits, birds and beasts, which one is not born by the creation of the heavenly machine, how have you ever exerted half of your strength, born and raised, yin and yang conception, but after the most lucrative but you are all stuffed into the stomach, aren't you stealing the work of the heavenly machine?"
Lu Zheng was a little speechless for a while, what Huang Weiyang said was extremely reasonable, in fact, it was not just these days, even if he was in the world, although he ate food from others, but which one is not a thing between heaven and earth, even if he is manpower to grow melons, fruits and vegetables, raise chickens and ducks, raise pigs and dogs, but if there is no such thing between heaven and earth, how can people create things out of thin air?
According to what Huang Weiyang said, life between heaven and earth, whether it is food, clothing, or everything, is almost stealing the heavenly machine creation, because in the final analysis, man himself is born of heaven and earth and makes his own decisions, which is the theft of the greatest heavenly machine creation. Looking back at this strange tree, Lu Zheng was suddenly amazed in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "When you say this, it seems that this is indeed the case." ”
Before I pruned this tree, the branches of this tree were staggered, and it only bears fruit once every twelve years, and it is called Huanyuanzi, and there are less than 100 of them each time, and the good and the bad are uneven, some are full and abnormal, and some are so empty and small. Some of them are precocious and turn into mud and dissipate between heaven and earth, and some are late and unsuccessful, and the most reckless consequences are not fruitful.
And since I managed to prune this tree, now you see that the trees on this tree bear fruit every year, and there are thousands of them each time, and they are full, and almost none of them are empty. Lu Zheng, do you know what kind of tree this tree is? This tree is called the Huanyuan Tree, which is the spiritual root that existed before the birth of heaven and earth.
I don't have the ability to conjure a tree out of thin air, nor do I have the ability to make a tree grow and blossom and bear fruit, this is all the work of heaven and earth, but I can make the fruit of this tree from small and shriveled to full and full. Isn't this what I'm using to steal the heavens?"
Lu Zheng listened attentively, only felt what he was thinking in his head, what he was thinking in his heart, and with Huang Weiyang's words, extremely strong changes occurred little by little, and he vaguely had a deeper understanding of what cultivation was.
Just hearing Huang Weiyang continued: "You are also a Daomen cultivator now, but do you know what the Dao is called, and what the Dao Gate is called the Dao?"
Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment, how to answer this, among the six realms, there is the Zhilu Dao realm, presumably it is in that realm that he can answer such a question. He didn't have the habit of talking without knowing anything, so he shook his head at the moment.
Huang Weiyang smiled, shook his head, and then waved his hand again, and said sonorously: "Don't you think you can't answer?" Hehe, it's nice to say, you're thinking too mysterious, it's hard to say, you just think too much, so you can't answer this simplest question." Let me tell you, what is the Tao?
The Tao is a thief! Stealing food, stealing drink, stealing vitality, stealing vitality, and even stealing all things, stealing heavenly machines, and stealing everything, that is the Tao! To put it bluntly, our Daomen is a gang of thieves, you say that you are a thief in the world, right, hehe, when you enter the cultivation world, you are still a thief, but you have taken away the small character and replaced it with the big character, and you have become a big thief, a thief who steals heaven and earth!"
Lu Zheng was taken aback by his words, and faintly felt in his heart that what he said was very reasonable, but it was a little awkward to hear this, and he thought about it: "Then in this case, what is the difference between the human world and the cultivation world, between the secular mortal and the cultivator?"
Huang Weiyang sneered: "What, don't you think that with supernatural spells, you are not human?"
Lu Zheng said honestly: "With supernatural powers, it is naturally different from secular mortals, for example, cultivators can fly, mortals can't fly, and they can't be at ease when they are bound by heaven and earth. The more he talked, the more these things he didn't usually think about, he practiced supernatural powers, and he was just bent on avenging Tang Xiaojiu, at this time, he didn't realize that there were so many benefits to cultivation.
Huang Weiyang sighed, with a sense of teasing: "Flying around, what's the big deal, look at that bird, if you don't cultivate or practice, you can swim in the air with the wind, in this way, don't you want to envy that bird? Besides, whether it's the mountains and the sea, or chasing the wind and electricity, the mountains and seas are so good there, if you move them over or move them over, are you full of food? As for chasing the wind and electricity, but what is it for?" Let me ask you, no matter how high your mana is, strong enough to destroy the heavens and the earth, what else can you do besides shattering the heavens and the earth, and what do you want to do?"
Lu Zheng was asked by him, and said in his heart, yes, if this is the case, what is the purpose of the hard cultivation and the calamities he has gone through? He himself is practicing for revenge, so if it is not for revenge, what is he practicing for? He suddenly thought of the cultivation mentioned in the Dragon Guard, the so-called sixfold realm of knowing the body, knowing the mind, knowing the way, knowing the fate, knowing the heavens, and getting rid of the heavens, is the liberation of layers.
For example, knowing the state of the body, not only can know the changes in the body, can adjust the physical body, and the spirit is sufficient, so it is not easy to be affected by the six qi such as wind, cold, summer and heat in the outside world, and avoid the troubles of various diseases. The meaning of this is not for any purpose, but only to free the physical body from the entanglement of illness and return to normal, and it is better to live than to die by being tortured by illness, and by doing this, the meaning of the practice is revealed, but it is real. This situation is somewhat similar to this rejuvenating tree, and the fruit it produces is small and deflated, just like a person who is sick, and it must not be exactly the same, it is the same reason.
And what Huang Weiyang did was not to change this rejuvenating tree, let alone destroy it, but to make it grow better according to the principles of heaven. And after practicing by oneself and entering the realm of knowing the body, the muscles and bones are strong, the body is safe and healthy, and the spirit is complete, which is much better than before, isn't it just stealing the fruits of the creation of heavenly machines?
