I still nodded, but now she became angry, "Hey, what do you mean? You are ignoring me."
He smiled helplessly, "I'm not ignoring you, I just don't want to talk."
"Humph, I don't want to talk. I see that you are simply ignoring my existence. Humph, this girl is so beautiful, but she is ignored just once. You are finished."
I was too lazy to pay attention and buried myself in reading the e-book. After a while, the woman spoke again, "Hey, can you agree to my request?"
"What request?"
"That's it...that's it. I am coming to Mount Emei all at once, or traveling alone. Can you take me with you?" The girl's face was a little red, and her voice was hesitant.
I was speechless, "Aren't you afraid that I am a bad person?"
"You don't look like me at first sight," the girl replied, raising her little face.
"Oh? Are you so sure?"
"Of course, my intuition is very accurate."
"Haha, then your intuition is very accurate. Can you tell me what kind of person I am?"
"Well...I think you are a person with a story."
"that is all?"
"Well, that's all".
I shook my head and smiled, "I hope your intuition will be accurate."
The atmosphere became silent again. After a while, she asked again: "Hey, my name is Wang Ling, what's your name?"
"Liu Zhihua".
"Oh, that's a good name. Oh, by the way, are you coming to Mount Emei too?"
&039;"Hmm".
"Humph, it's just a piece of wood, a piece of rotten wood."
After a few hours, we finally arrived at Mount Emei. As soon as I went down, she caught up with me and said, "Hey, wait for me. Didn't you agree that you want to take me with you?"
I remained silent, neither refusing nor agreeing. When I arrived in Emei Mountain, I naturally found a place to stay first, so I randomly found a hotel at home and checked in. Wang Ling also followed me in, asking for the same room as mine. Next to me, I felt like I was stuck with dog skin plaster.
Morning came and it was already noon. I planned to finish my meal and rest before starting to climb Mount Emei.
However, the food here is indeed a bit expensive. The most common bowl of jelly in Sichuan costs ten yuan, but it only costs three yuan at home.
No matter how expensive it is, you have to eat it. Wang Ling actually sat down, which made me want to get angry. After finishing the jelly in a few mouthfuls, I took my digital camera and started climbing.
Mount Emei is one of the most famous mountains in Sichuan. It has a long history and is said to be one of the birthplaces of Taoism, but it was later occupied by Buddhism.
The entire mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, with undulating hills and a vaguely soaring dragon. It towers into the clouds, making it hard to see clearly.
There is an old saying that goes, "There are immortals in Shu, and they are Emei."
I recited this sentence softly. If there is a fairy, then Emei is a fairyland.
I climbed Mount Emei and looked into the distance. The white clouds were rolling in. It was as if I was actually there. I felt the atmosphere that was far away from the world. At this moment, both my body and mind seemed to be flying.
Taking a sharp breath, I roared towards the cliff several times, causing a crowd of people to startle. The tourists around me looked at me as if I was crazy.
"Haha, are you stupid?" Wang Ling jumped out behind me.
"Yeah, I was stupid."
"Hey, I don't have a fever in my brain." Wang Ling raised her hand and touched my forehead, "Why are you talking nonsense?"
"If you don't go play, why are you following me?"
"Follow you and see what you are doing. Anyway, I'm just walking around."
"As you wish."
Inadvertently, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a flash of colorful light in the mountains ahead, and then I saw a rainbow emerging from the clouds.
Immediately, the tourists around him screamed, saying that they had seen a miracle, and they immediately started taking pictures.
I was surprised. I just saw a flash of colorful light, "Is Mount Emei really famous?"
"Dang", the melodious bell came from the mountain, which shocked my heart.
There is the Wannian Temple in Mount Emei, and the early Taoist ruins have long been lost in history.
Something suddenly occurred to my mind, and I walked quickly towards Rainbow. Wang Ling shouted and chased after me.
The rainbow looks right in front of you from a distance, but it seems to be an ethereal existence, appearing in the clouds and mist. Some people say that it is the path walked by the gods.
The mountains are high and the roads are winding and the people are gradually becoming sparse and the road ahead is getting harder and harder to walk. But this is not a problem for me. After all, I grew up in a rural area and climbing mountains is commonplace. However, Wang Ling, a girl from the city, is now very happy. It’s too much to take.
Wang Ling shouted from behind, "Originally I wanted to go alone, but I was afraid of leaving her alone in this remote place. It would be difficult to handle if something happened."
I pulled her and walked towards the depths of Mount Emei. The ancient trees were vigorous and coiled up, and we entered the primitive zone deep in Mount Emei. It was like a paradise, unpolluted by the fireworks of the world.
"Ah! This place is so beautiful. It would be great if I could live here," Wang Ling cheered.
A group of mountain monkeys bared their teeth at us. Wang Ling made a face, and then the group of monkeys attacked us, and fruits were thrown all over the sky.
I looked up at the sky. The rainbow has not dissipated. I have to hurry up. Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take until it dissipates.
The virgin forest is full of ancient trees, blocking the sky, and only a little bit of sunlight shines. The surroundings are very quiet, and occasionally you can hear the singing of birds and the sounds of animals.
The rainbow was in a canyon. When we got here, the rainbow had disappeared. Not only was it a bit regretful, but we looked around and was surprised to find that there was smoke from cooking in the valley, and we could faintly hear the crowing of chickens. "Is there still someone living here?"
While we were thinking, a woodcutter came down from the mountain, carrying a bundle of dry firewood, and saw us, "Which one are you looking for?"
"Fellow fellow, we are tourists and got lost while walking here. Is there a village here?"
Fifty-Nine Taboo Things
"Well, let's go and sit in the village. Our village is very remote. Few people come here, and we rarely go out. Last time, a few people from outside came and took a look at our village. I left, saying there was something weird in our village, but in the end I didn’t see any consequences, so I left.”
The woodcutter was very easy to communicate with. We followed him and he started talking nonstop. After a while, we arrived at the entrance of the village. This was a very ordinary village, just like the previous village we had. There were about ten people. The families and houses are grouped together, all of which are earthen houses, but there are still a few wooden buildings among them.
The whole village was in a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Several big red roosters ran out chasing each other. There were several children playing in the mud at the entrance of the village.
I smiled softly. This was the same as when I was a child, a happy and carefree childhood.
The woodcutter took us to his home. I took a quick look at the interior decoration and was convinced that this village must be Han. The woodcutter was very enthusiastic and asked his wife to quickly cook and entertain us.
After a while, the whole village knew that someone from outside was coming, and they all came to see what was strange. There were about forty or fifty men and women. As for the clothes, they were similar to those in other rural areas.
The honest smile on his face can't help but make people feel warm.
Several children gathered around, "Big brother, big sister, I heard that the outside world is very lively, and there are many delicious and beautiful things."
"Haha", I shook my head, "The world outside looks wonderful, but it is not as comfortable as here. Outside, people have lost themselves, without basic trust, and the morality of people's hearts has been lost."
"Well, then we'd better not go out and live happily here."
"Brother, I think you look like a human being," a child suddenly said.
"Like a person?" I was a little confused.
"Well, it's really similar. If you don't believe me, come with me to see it."
At this time, the villagers were pointing and talking, "It really seems like...".
"It's almost carved out of the same mold."
I followed the child to a wooden building at the end of the village and heard the child say that this was the ancestral hall of their village.
Entering the ancestral hall, the child pointed to the statue directly above and said, "Here, that's him."
I took a closer look, and there was a loud bang in my head. I was completely stunned. It took me a long time to come back to my senses. The statue in front of me was exactly the same as me.
"Is this... the General of Shu Yuan back then?"
"It's true, it's exactly the same, it's amazing," Wang Ling also exclaimed.
I walked over. I don’t know how many years this statue has existed. It was carved as if it were flying in the air. General Shu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes staring ahead, showing his solemn aura.
I saw a stone tablet carved at the foot of the statue, but the words on it were too ancient and I couldn't understand them at all.
"Brother, I heard from grandpa and others that this man is a general, very brave, and he is very powerful in fighting."
I smiled softly and touched the child's head, "Let's go back!"
When I arrived in the village, I saw an old man with white hair walking over. He looked me up and down for a long time and said, "It looks like it. It really does look like it. It seems that all this is God's will. When General Shu Yuan died unjustly, he left a mark on me." The next thing I said, I said I would definitely come back to take revenge in the future, but I didn’t expect that I would actually come back.”
After saying that, the old man pulled me into the house and told me carefully that the woodcutter who brought us in had food and wine prepared at his house.
The old man told me a lot about the history of ancient Shu and the history of ancient Shu.
It can be roughly inferred from this that the Kingdom of Shu was an extremely powerful country at that time, and the Shu people tribe was also a highly civilized tribe of its own. It could have continued to be strong, but for unknown reasons, in a short period of time The entire Shu people were almost wiped out.
I had a rough guess about these, and I also learned from the old man’s mouth that this village is the descendant of the Shu people. To be precise, it is the descendant of General Shu Yuan’s subordinates. It has been preserved in the changes of history, but The customs and habits of the original Shu people have basically been forgotten. Now they have been completely Chineseized, and the understanding of their ancestors is only passed down orally from generation to generation.
I nodded and asked, "Old man, do you know the legend about the Shu Immortal in Mount Emei?"
Hearing my question, the old man was silent for a long time before replying: "No one can explain this clearly. Mount Emei was a Taoist holy land in ancient times and is full of mystery. However, I do know that there are many people living in Mount Emei. Experts outside the world, they are all good at calculations and predictions, you might as well give them a try, maybe they can give you some pointers."
I nodded and was about to leave after eating, but the people in the village wanted me to stay for two days, saying that it was getting dark and the road was dangerous.
It was hard for me to refuse, but Wang Ling was extremely excited and said that it would be romantic to spend the night in such a place for the first time.
It is also rare for me to put down the things on my mind, relax my body and have a good rest. In such a paradise, the air is so fresh.
I took a walk to the entrance of the village and happened to see the children in the village playing Dudu under a banyan tree (that is, pulling one back and pulling the two against each other).
Next to them, two villagers were sitting. They seemed to be playing chess, so focused that they were not affected by the noise of the children next to them.
I also became interested, so I walked over and saw that they were playing chess. However, I watched for a while and didn't understand. They were just walking around randomly. It seemed that they were not playing chess at all, but a game of chess. game.
After a while, I finally couldn't help it anymore and asked: "Brothers, what are you doing now? Why are you still doing it after being eaten?"
The two of them looked up at me and said, "Young man, you are too young to understand being hot. What we are dealing with is a fate."
"The game of heaven?" I was a little surprised, "Are you trying to deduce the game of chess between heaven and earth?"
One of them nodded, "Haha, it doesn't count. We don't have the ability to deduce the chess game of heaven and earth. That is a taboo matter related to destiny. If we don't do it, we will suffer a big disaster."
"That you?"
"We? Haha, we are just trying to figure out some unknown things and try our best to pry out." At this point, the man pointed to the sky and said, "Stop talking, otherwise you will be in trouble."
The two began to immerse themselves in playing chess again, only occasionally talking to themselves.
"Tao travels in two ways. Yin and Yang give birth to Tai Chi, and Tai Chi transforms all things. Where there is life, there is death. Life and death, Yin and Yang are in conflict with each other. You horse should not take this step, otherwise you will fall into the door of death."
"No, since yin and yang are in conflict with each other, then I will reverse the yin and yang and turn life into death and death into life. In this way, I can steal a secret from heaven."
"This... is a good move."
"There are forty-two hexagrams in the Book of Changes. The hexagrams are unpredictable. Now that I have only accounted for fourteen hexagrams, it is no longer good."
'".
"Well, that's it for today. Come back another day."
Sixty I Ching Bagua
The two of them stood up, and I woke up with a start. I seemed to have seen a mysterious scene just now. I seemed to understand something in my heart, and I seemed to be disappointed about something. In short, I couldn't explain it clearly.
I quickly caught up with them, "Seniors, can you give me some advice?"
"Haha, we are just wilderness mountain men. How can we be called seniors? We only have a superficial understanding of the art of yin and yang. If you want to learn it, I might as well give you a saying, 'The Tao is in your heart. As long as you wholeheartedly follow the Tao, You can understand the Tao naturally."
After saying that, the two people left. I was thoughtful and said to myself for a while: "What exactly is Tao?"
"Hey, what are you doing standing here in a daze?" Wang Ling came over at some point, followed by a group of children, who all gathered around her and called her sister.
"Nothing, you can play with the children, I'll go for a walk."
After saying that, he walked alone outside the village. The colorful light he saw earlier was here. He looked around to see if he could find anything.
After climbing over a mountain, it was already sunset, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell on the mountain, giving it a different kind of beauty.
A mountain peak in the distance looks gorgeous under the afterglow of the setting sun. There is a stone standing on it, as if a person is standing there, surrounded by clouds and mist, which makes people daydream.
I looked around and finally came to a waterfall, which fell three thousand feet into the water. There was a huffing sound and I saw a man fishing under the waterfall with a bamboo pole.
I walked over and saw that his fishing rod had no buoy, just a line in the water. Looking at this man again, he had his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
I felt strange, but I didn't rush to disturb him. I stood aside and observed. I didn't see him move for a while, so I wondered if he was dead.
Just when he was thinking about whether to test it out, the man suddenly stood up and lifted the fishing rod, and saw a palm-sized crucian carp caught.
I secretly marveled in my heart, this wild mountain village is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!
The man put the fish into the cage, and then he caught it empty-handed without using any bait.
After putting down the fishing rod, the man started to close his eyes again. I couldn't help it anymore, so I asked, "Uncle, what kind of fish are you catching?"
He opened his eyes and glanced at me, "Young man, judging from your appearance, you must be from outside, right?"
"Yeah," I nodded.
"There are very few young people like you nowadays"!
"How to say?"
"Your patience is good, but it's a pity that your heart can't calm down."
"When you came here just now, I felt that your steps were steady, but your breath was too heavy. Then I saw that you looked worried. Young man, I advise you to relax a little. The world is vast, what can't you see?"
I nodded silently, and then he caught another fish, "Haha, I'm lucky today, it seems I can have a feast tonight."
"Uncle, you can catch it without bait, and there is no buoy. How do you know the fish is hooked?"
The uncle put the fishing rod down again and smiled mysteriously at me, "This is called luck."
"luck?"
"Yes, luck. If you are lucky, everything will go smoothly. Some people are very poor, but if they are lucky that day, they may become rich from poor."
I nodded thoughtfully, "Then what do you mean by luck?"
"Luck is something that has always been illusory. Believe in it, it exists. If you don't believe in it, it does not exist. The Book of Changes says that a person has a destiny. The so-called fortune-telling by touching the bones, how many lives a person has, and the size of the life bones are all related to luck. . Just like some people are destined to live a lifetime of wealth, and some people are destined to live in poverty no matter how many opportunities they are given, and those who are destined to be deceived by God can only live in loneliness for the rest of their lives."
"Well," I seem to understand something. This luck should also be an explanation of fate, and it has something to do with the Yin and Yang Bagua.
"According to what you said, you have good luck today, but these fish have bad luck. Do these fish also have lives?"
"Of course, all living things have spirits. Just as the Buddha said, all living beings are equal. In this world, whether it is a plant, a tree or a grain of sand, it has its own life. Just like in this water tank, There are five hundred and thirty-six fish, and their fates are different." As he was talking, he caught another fish, and I saw that this fish had its tail hooked.
"Well, you see, this fish is so unlucky that it bumped into it by itself."
"Then you can't change your life?"
"Change your life? Whose life should you change, or someone else's life?"
"Everyone's life changes."
"Young man, you are talking too much. Remember not to talk nonsense in the future. You can eat but your life cannot be changed casually. Even if you change, you have to pay a price. Just like the Yin Yang Master wants to change history, the consequences he has to bear are unimaginable. Yes, not only he himself but also his family members cannot escape. I think your ancestors should leave this to you as a warning, right?"
"Uncle?" I looked at him in surprise.
"Haha, don't worry, I don't know you, and I don't know where you come from, but I think you are born with a Taoist bone and a dragon bone to protect you. You should be a descendant of a certain family of yin and yang Feng Shui masters. There is something wrong with the young man. We have no choice but to comply with destiny, otherwise God will punish us." After saying this, the man began to pack his things, "Little brother, go back quickly, it's getting late."
“What a weirdo,” I said to myself.
Back in the village, it was almost evening, and the villagers were all cooking dinner. The smoke from the cooking pots filled the air with the aroma of vegetables.
The old man took me to drink again. The dinner was extremely rich. All the food was only available in the mountains. It was pure natural and simply delicious.
The old man is very talkative and has chatted with me a lot, from ancient times to the present.
"Come here, try our home-raised chicken. It's much more delicious than the ones outside." The old man gave me a big piece and said, "The Emperors of Qin and Han Dynasty laid the foundation for the Chinese nation and pioneered the country's earliest history. Territory. Alas, if General Shu Yuan had not been killed by a traitor, history would not be like this. You must know that Shu was the most powerful country at that time. Wherever General Shu Yuan directed his troops, he was invincible! "
The old man started to get drunk, but I was very sober. I got off the table and walked out of the door. It was a kind of enjoyment to walk under the stars at night in the mountains.
Wang Ling also followed, "Hehe, I see how mysterious you are. Do you have any hidden secrets?"
"You're not sleeping yet, why are you running out?"
"It's still early to go to bed. I also want to take a walk and get to know you."
Wang Ling also drank some wine today, with a faint blush on her cheeks, giving her a pitiful look, and her long hair fluttering in the night wind.
At that moment, I had an illusion and shook my head, "It seems I was drunk. How could I look like her?"
"Why are you shaking your head?"
"It's nothing. Go back to bed quickly. It's cold in the mountains at night, so be careful of catching a cold."
"No, I just want to chat with you and get to know you."
"What do I need to know?"
"I feel like you are a person with a story. I want to know what kind of story this story is."
"Haha, a story is a story, some things will only be buried deep in the heart."
I walked forward and stood under the night sky, "Singing a farewell song that I have read for generations while drinking wine. Suddenly I look back and it's almost dusk. Where is the beauty? Looking at the river bank alone."
"Wow, you can also write poems, but you can't tell that you are a talented person. What's wrong, such a talented person, has someone abandoned you?"
I didn't answer, I just closed my eyes and felt the tranquility quietly.
After a long time, I said, "Have you ever seriously loved someone else?"
"Well... I don't know, but I think the love in today's society is too false. As the saying goes, I would rather believe that a sow can climb a tree than believe in true love."
"Haha, really? But I believe there is true love."
"Have it?"
"some".
"Hehe, what you mean is that you have met true love, so you should be very happy, right?"
"Well, I encountered it before, but I didn't cherish it properly. Now it's gone. Do you think I should go find it and bring it back?"
"Hee hee, of course I have to find it back. True love is something you only meet once in a lifetime."
"But, I don't know how to get her back. She is already far away from me."
"Very far, how far?"
"I don't know. Anyway, it's so far away that I can't find it, but it seems to be right next to me."
"No way, is there anything in this world that is too far away to be found? Even in the United States and Africa, you can find it very quickly by taking a plane, right?"
"That place can't be reached by plane."
"You can't go there by plane, is it a very primitive place? Then you can take the train and then walk there?"
"No way".
"What's going to happen?"
"I don't know, maybe one day I will just become a ghost and go find her."
"Are you scaring me?" Wang Ling quickly took a few steps back, "I think you are mentally ill. Is your girlfriend dead? You still want to find her? There are no ghosts in this world. What are you doing?" You have to live with yourself. If she dies, she dies. You have to continue to live. She is your true love, but it does not mean that there are no other good girls in the world except him." I saw Wang Ling's eyes flashed with tears.
"Maybe", I turned around and walked back.
The stars were shining, and insects were chirping happily in the grass. I asked Wang Ling to go back first, and walked up the mountain alone, because I saw vague figures walking around on the mountain peak, and there were several of them. They seemed to be discussing something in the moonlight. .
After climbing the mountain and reaching the top of the mountain, I saw three people sitting on a big rock, gesturing to each other. I walked over and heard one of them say: "Tao transforms all things. Tao is heaven and is destiny." .
"I don't agree. In my opinion, Tao is yin and yang, Tao is law, and it is an invisible force."
"Well, since we each have our own opinions, why not let us deduce the Tao situation and pry into the secrets of heaven to prove what kind of existence Tao is."
"This... I'm afraid it's a little difficult."
"It doesn't matter, we will try our best."
Sixty-one seeking the way
"This... I'm afraid it's a little difficult."
"It doesn't matter, we will try our best."
Then the three of them looked at the starry sky and began to make calculations, pointing at the starry sky, "Zi Sang, Beidou, Ying Huo."
"The Book of Changes says that chaos is the beginning of heaven and earth, and then it turns into yin and yang. There are forty-two hexagrams in it. For divination of celestial phenomena, let's start from the forty-two hexagrams."
I walked over and stood silently observing. The three of them didn't seem to notice my arrival, and they were completely in a state of obsession.
What was carved on the stone at first was some symbols that I couldn't understand. By the end it was all blurry. I don't know how long it took. It seemed like an instant, a day, or a month before the three of them stopped. Movement, my eyes began to become clear again.
They carved strange symbols on the stone, which looked like words and starry sky patterns.
"There is still no result. It seems that this method cannot be calculated by the three of us."
"Well, I guess it's just Yin-Yang Master. Do you think there will be Yin-Yang Master in this world now?"
"This is difficult. It is said that the Yin Yang Master is too defiant and has been blocked by the Tao. We all have to be careful, maybe one day we will be punished by God."
"Well, I guess so. Okay, that's it for today, let's all go home."
The three of them went down the mountain separately, as if they didn't see me at all. I was a little dazed. It took me a while to wake up, and I sat on the stone and began to study the symbols they left behind.
Inside, I seemed to see the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and even natural changes. The more I looked, the more shocked I became. It was simply unbelievable. Unfortunately, I was too shallow and could only see roughly.
After a while, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, you can't force these things, just take your time."
When I came down the mountain, I didn't expect that Wang Ling was still waiting for me, "Why did you go up the mountain?"
"Just take a walk." After saying that, I turned around and entered the house. The people in the village arranged two rooms for us, and the place would not be closed at night.
"Hello",
"what?"
"Do you hate me so much? You don't even want to talk to me."
"Go to bed, it's late, I have to go back tomorrow."
The night passed quickly, and it was rare for me to get such a good sleep. I got up the next morning and said goodbye to the people in the village. I was going to go back and visit Mount Emei for another two days before heading back home. I guess Xiang Fei and the others had already started. Set off to find Zhuge's tomb.
I followed the original route back. There were many tourists in Mount Emei today and the weather was sunny. I returned to the hotel and took a shower and changed clothes, and then started climbing again. This time I wanted to visit the Wannian Temple. It is said that this temple is very spiritual.
After climbing the mountain peak, I went straight to Wannian Temple. In order to save time, I took a shortcut. There were very few tourists coming to this path, and those who came occasionally were adventurous.
However, it has been under development recently, and it is said that a mountain villa will be built. I passed by here and happened to see the construction team surveying the terrain. I was not interested in this and was about to walk away.
I said to a young man next to me: "This place is the intersection of Yin and Yang. There is a hidden dragon sleeping here. If you build a villa here, there will probably be disaster."
As soon as I heard that I was interested, I walked over and asked, "Brother Taoist, can you give me some advice?"
The man glanced at me and said, "I'm just talking casually, there's nothing worth pointing out."
"Haha, it's okay, it's just a casual chat."
The man nodded, "In that case, let's talk to Brother Dao. I think Brother Dao, you should be going to Wannian Temple. It's a great way. Let's talk while walking."
Walking onto the path, I asked, "Liu Zhihua, can you tell me?"
"Just call me Li Tianshu."
"Brother Li admits that when I saw you just now, I could tell the terrain there. I would like to ask, how are the dragon veins in this Feng Shui determined?"
"According to the Book of Changes, the dragon is the spirit of the earth, the energy of the earth. The direction of the dragon's veins is related to the prosperity of all things in a place. Therefore, all dynasties have sought the dragon's veins as their ancestral roots. However, as the world is ever-changing, the dragon's veins will also change. The day it dries up, the dynasty will also decline."
"So the ancients have been exploring the art of Feng Shui, hoping to use the art of Feng Shui to seize the fortune of heaven and earth. From Yuan Tiangang in the Sui and Tang Dynasties to Liu Bowen in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, they are all strange people in Feng Shui. They can be called masters of a generation and can hunt for dragons. Positioning, that kind of Taoism is beyond our reach!”
I nodded in agreement and asked, "Feng shui is related to yin and yang. Does that mean that feng shui is the evolution of yin and yang?"
"That's natural. In fact, not only Feng Shui, but also everything related to Tao, evolved from yin and yang, including the Book of Changes. The Tao De Jing written by Lao Tzu at that time is actually related to yin and yang, but what has been handed down is The Yin and Yang chapters within the ordinary chapters have long been lost in history."
As he spoke, Li Tianshu squatted down, picked up two stones on the ground, and continued: "Take these two stones as an example. They represent Yin and Yang respectively. There is a theory of innate Bagua in the Book of Changes. This Bagua must be able to If you divine it, then you will truly understand Yin and Yang."
"There are hexagrams, Yin hexagrams and Yang hexagrams. If there is one yin and one yang, then it is a yin and yang hexagram. The hexagrams are all-encompassing and contain the secrets of destiny. That is why the forty-two secrets are derived."
After saying that, he made a hexagram, which was the Yang hexagram, "Today the red bird looks toward the phoenix, Xuanwu opens the way, and something happy is coming to Mount Emei."
"What do you say about happy events?"
"Haha, you will know when the time comes. You and I are quite destined. One last thing to say to you: Don't force everything to act according to destiny. People and ghosts have different paths, and yin and yang do not interact with each other."
I nodded, of course I knew what he was talking about, and immediately asked: "Is there no remedy?"
"It's difficult. To untie the bell, you still need someone to tie it!"
"Okay, I won't say much more. If I have the chance to see you another day, I'm going home."
"May I ask where Brother Li lives? I will visit him if I have the chance."
He waved his hand and said, "Mountain Man in the Wilderness, how can I have a home? See you later. Goodbye!" Li Tianshu clasped his fists at me and said goodbye and turned around to leave.
Looking at Li Tianshu disappearing at the end of the mountain forest, I secretly exclaimed, "What a strange person."
We continued walking towards Wannian Temple. Just now Li Tianshu said that something happy would be coming to Emei today, but he didn’t know what it would be.
Wannian Temple is already in sight, hidden among the pines and green cypresses. The incense here is very strong, and tourists come in an endless stream to burn incense. It is said that the monks are very rich now, and it seems to be true.
As soon as I walked up, I heard someone shouting, "Look, everyone, a Buddha's light has appeared."
Suddenly the crowd exploded and became excited, shouting that the Bodhisattva had appeared. Many believers began to worship.
I turned around and looked, and sure enough, in the mountain peak opposite the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, in a ball of colorful light, there was a vague shadow of a Buddha circling and meditating. I had to sigh at such a miracle. Nature is really mysterious.
Although I don’t know much about Buddha, I know that Buddha emphasizes compassion and equality for all living beings, which is exactly the opposite of Tao. The difference is that Buddha knows how to adapt to the changes of each era.
The monks from Wannian Temple also ran out. Seeing this scene, they were all very excited. For a while, the voice of Amitabha was heard one after another, and soon even the abbot of the temple came out.
"Amitabha, if I can see the true Buddha appear in my lifetime, my merits are considered to be complete." An old monk who seemed to be an elder was so excited that he burst into tears. Looking at his shiny face, people had to pay attention to him. There was some doubt in what he said.
The Buddha's light only appeared for a while and then dissipated. The Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple returned to its previous calm, with tourists coming and going, taking photos.
I walked in, looked at the Buddha statue inside, and sighed in my heart. The Buddha said that everything depends on fate, and he wants people to put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately, and see through the extraordinary world.
In fact, even the Buddha himself is not transcendent and has not seen through the world. How can he let the world see through the world?
Unknowingly, I walked into the Wannian Temple and walked to the most lively central Buddhist hall, where the Tathagata Buddha is enshrined. The entire Buddhist hall is magnificent. From this point, it can be seen that the Buddha has not seen through the secular world at all. , I couldn't help but snorted to the Buddha, "It's just a tool used by the ruler to comfort the people."
There is an endless stream of tourists around offering incense to Tathagata Buddha and praying that their wishes will come true.
I was the only one standing there, watching with cold eyes, looking a little out of place.
"Brother, why don't you worship Buddha?" A little boy stood in front of me and asked, holding a few incense candles in his hand.
Smiling slightly, "Big brother doesn't believe in Buddhism, nor does he worship Buddha."
"Why? I heard from my grandfather that Buddha can bless people's health and make their wishes come true."
"Haha, that's a lie. There is no Buddha in the world."
"Really?"
"real".
"Hey, what are you talking about to my grandson? Crazy." An old man came out from the side, glared at me, and then pulled his grandson away.
I smiled helplessly and was about to leave, but I didn't know that a voice sounded from behind, "Amitabha, this donor, can you talk to me?"
I turned around and saw an old monk wearing cassocks standing there, looking at me with a "compassionate" face, as if he was about to see through the mortal world.
"I'm not interested in Buddha", he said and prepared to leave.
"Amitabha, donor, you have misunderstood. I don't want you to believe in Buddhism, I just want to discuss the Tao with you."
"On the Road?"
"Yes, talking about Tao, Buddha is actually a kind of Tao, but few people can understand it thoroughly."
Hearing what he said, my eyes lit up and I nodded in agreement.
"Haha, the donor is here, please."
Following the old monk, we came to a small forest behind the Wannian Temple. There was a stone bench and a stone table. The old monk and I sat down, and a young monk poured tea next to us.
Take a sip and discover the authentic Emei jasmine tea, which is fragrant and fragrant.
The old monk smiled and asked, "The donor should be from the Taoist sect, right?"
I nodded.
"Haha, I know that people from the Taoist sect have looked down on Buddha since ancient times, thinking that Buddha is just a trick to deceive the people. There have been disputes and even fights throughout the ages, but I don't think so."
"Then what do you think, Master?"
"Lao Na believes that all things coexist in the world, a hundred schools of thought flourish, and a hundred schools of thought flourish during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. Although our Buddha is an external culture, after years of historical integration, it has now completely become a unique culture of China. , completely separated from the West. Therefore, I believe that Buddha is also a manifestation of Tao, but it is different from what Tao pursues. Our Buddha emphasizes compassion and obedience to God's will, while Tao emphasizes 'seeking the Tao'." .
Sixty-two Buddha and Tao
"So, the master, I think, in fact, Buddhism can coexist."
I nodded and smiled, "What you said really makes sense, but still cannot eliminate the dispute between Buddhism. The so -called Tao is not the same. The master should understand this truth?"
"Lao Xun naturally understands, but Lao Xun still hopes that the owner can listen to the words of the old man. I wonder if the owner can be willing?"
"you say".
"If the old man is not bad, the owner should be the real Taoist. In the future, there will be hope to become a mage Yin and Yang. Yin and yang, that that hurts yourself, but also hurts all beings. "
"Well, I will have this one. Do you still have something to say?"
"There are so many old people who want to say, I hope the owner can understand."
I stood up, "Then I will leave, but if I have a chance, I will come."
Back to the hotel, I planned to go back. Wang Ling blocked at my door. "Hey, can you tell me the phone call?"
"Don't you like me?"
"I ... I just like you what's wrong with you? Don't allow it."
"Then you like the wrong person." I said lightly. "You haven't really understood me, and don't know what I am doing. Just be a hurry in my life, forget me."
After speaking, when I mentioned my luggage, I went downstairs, or Wang Ling behind was scolding the bastard and tears, but it didn't matter.
When I returned home in the afternoon, I heard that a major event happened. The archeological team from the city rushed into the corpse hole. As a result, the loss was heavy. Several of them died in it, and two were scared.
Now that the corpse cave has been blocked, it becomes a restricted area. I found the old blind that night and told him what I encountered in Mount Emei and wanted to ask his views.
"Well, experts are hidden in the world, but they have their own hidden methods, some like wild mountain villages, and some like noisy red dust."
"For example, you?"
