Chapter one hundred and fifty-three, solving doubts
Returning to Juhuading of the Immortal Sword Sect, Jianyi arranged for Qingshi to live alone in a small building. On the third day, Qingshi went to visit Jian Ruochen again.
Qingshi wanted to see the 'Sword Peak Immortal Traces', which was originally Qingshi's biggest wish to visit the Immortal Sword Sect. According to his master Ou Changzhi, this was the guidance left by the real Sword Immortal, and the creation of Xuan Sword Technique benefited a lot from it. .
Of course Qingshi wanted to see the 'Jianfeng Immortal Relic'. Jian Ruochen originally said that after Qingshi saw other scenic spots, he would arrange for him to accept the test. If he passed the test, he could visit the Immortal Relic. However, Qingshi had been back for several days and there was no movement from Jian Ruochen, so Qingshi came to see the leader of Ruochen again.
Still in that spacious and bright quiet room, after Qingshi explained to Jian Ruochen that he wanted to pay homage to the celestial beings, Jian Ruochen chuckled and said, "Don't worry, dear nephew, you must pay homage to the celestial beings on the night of the 15th full moon of every month." , today is only the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, you have to wait a few more days! Besides, I don’t know if you are ready yet."
"Oh, that's it!" Qingshi said awkwardly, "I was impatient and made my uncle laugh."
"The relics of the Sword Immortal are naturally fascinating. My nephew is a little more anxious but he doesn't make me laugh." Jian Ruochen thought for a while and then said: "My nephew's martial arts training is not low anymore. Your master was so talented back then. He is the number one person of our generation, and now he can be called the number one in the world. However, you haven't seen your master for several years, right?"
"Yes!" Qingshi said, "My nephew has not listened to Master's teachings for more than six years."
"Oh! Six years is not a short period of time." Jian Ruochen said, "You are not a disciple of the Immortal Sword Sect. Although I have the intention, I cannot teach you swordsmanship and martial arts. What questions have you had in your practice in the past few years? , or I can answer one or two questions for you, which not only satisfies the feelings of old friends, but also does not violate the sect's rules. Well! Let me answer three questions for you, do you think so?"
"Thank you, Uncle Master!" Qingshi said happily and immediately raised his first question.
"Please ask Uncle Teacher," Qingshi said, "That day, Uncle Master once talked about luck, and the roots of kindness and wisdom. I don't know, so I would like to ask Uncle Master for some advice."
"Well," Jian Ruochen twirled his beard and said, "The so-called luck is actually not that mysterious. Everyone in the world has good luck and bad luck. If a person is very, very lucky, it is not that he is lucky, but There is luck, and luck combined with it means you are extremely lucky, haha, it’s not mysterious, right?”
"Oh, so luck and fortune are actually the same thing," Qingshi said, "It's just that the size and magnitude are different. Is that correct?"
"right!"
"Then what is luck, or what is luck?"
"Luck is the opportunities and benefits given to people by heaven and earth."
"Why does heaven and earth give people opportunities and benefits?"
"Heaven and earth are spiritual, or in other words, heaven and earth are alive. Just like the countless lives in heaven and earth, it also has its own likes and dislikes, although this may only be unconscious. Heaven and earth will respond according to their own likes and dislikes. , giving opportunities and benefits to people he likes, this is luck. Of course, it will also bring bad luck to people he doesn't like. "
"Oh, that's it!" Qingshi pondered for a while and then asked, "How does that world bring luck to people?"
"This is a bit mysterious," Jian Ruochen said, "Heaven and earth have their own methods, and we may not all understand them. From my superficial understanding, I think one of the methods of heaven and earth is to use ubiquitous methods. Reiki can bring luck to people, but it is definitely not the only way, or even the main way.”
"Aura?"
"Yes, Reiki is definitely one of the methods. You know, some people who can use Reiki are monks. Some people can't, they are ordinary people. Monks are naturally much more lucky than ordinary people. And monks Among them, some people are particularly sensitive and friendly to spiritual energy, and they practice very quickly. We say that their talents are very good, but on the contrary, they have poor talents and practice slowly."
"So, does it mean that people with higher cultivation talents will have better luck?"
"If you think about it carefully, wouldn't it? At least that's the case in most cases."
Qingshi thought for a long time and said: "Yes, although it is not entirely like this, most of them are. A person's good talent is actually a sign of good luck!"
"That's right," Jian Ruochen smiled, "That's it!"
"Uncle Master," Qingshi continued to ask, "is there anything that can increase luck if someone eats it?" He thought of the cherry-looking fruit that Ge Wu gave him.
"Of course you have it!" Jian Ruochen said with a smile, "You must have taken some heavenly materials and earthly treasures that are helpful for cultivation. If you eat those things, your cultivation talents will become better. Isn't this an increase in luck? Yet?"
"Yes!" Qingshi said, "Apart from cultivation talent? What about other aspects?"
"The same thing!" Jian Ruochen said, "As far as I know, there is a kind of spiritual fruit. After eating it, people will become extremely sensitive to the spiritual energy of all things. If a person eats this spiritual fruit, he will be better than other people." It is easier for people to detect the precious light and aura emitted by hidden treasures, so they can obtain these treasures more easily. Doesn't this increase luck?"
"Yeah! That makes sense!"
"Also, after taking some elixirs, people's appearance will become more beautiful, their body will produce a strange fragrance, or their hair will be brighter and their skin will be better, or their temperament will be easy-going and aggressive will dissipate. In the final analysis, it will increase their affinity, thus The more popular he is with others, the more popular he will be. If more people are willing to help him, his luck will naturally become better. Do you think this is true?"
"Yes! It makes sense!" Qingshi nodded and said.
Jian Ruochen smiled and said: "Of course, these are just my humble opinions. There are more secrets about luck itself that we don't know yet, but the general principle should be this."
"Yes," Qingshi said with a smile, "What uncle said is very reasonable. I can basically understand everything about luck. Thank you, uncle Xie, for explaining my confusion. However, there is one thing I don't quite understand. I have luck plus How can Uncle Master see the body? And he can also see the level of luck."
"Haha, this is a little more complicated," Jian Ruochen said with a smile, "I said, some people are particularly sensitive to spiritual energy. If you learn some techniques to observe the movement of spiritual energy, you can detect it to a certain extent. to the relationship between the affinity of Reiki to a person and so on. I am a person who is particularly sensitive to Reiki, and I have learned techniques that can detect the relationship between Reiki and people, so I can see the size and pattern of a person's luck. .”
"Ah!" Qingshi said in surprise, "That's it, uncle is really good at it!"
"I'm not very good at this skill," Jian Ruochen said with a smile, "but there are very few people who know it. It is said that Shen Beichen is the master of observing qi and fortune, but his method is different from mine. Obviously He’s much smarter.”
"Oh, it turns out that Patriarch Beichen is also proficient in this art." Qingshi said, "Uncle Master is too modest."
Jian Ruochen picked up the tea cup and made a gesture of invitation, and Qingshi also picked up the cup and tasted it. The tea was indeed very good, and the water used to make the tea was also made from melted snow from the top of the mountain.
Jian Ruochen put down his tea cup and said, "My good nephew also asked about the roots of kindness and wisdom, but it is easier to distinguish. Whether a person is good or evil can be judged by just listening to his words, observing his actions, and checking his heart. The same is generally true for judging whether a person is smart or not. They are all similar methods. This is the way of appraising people. It is neither mysterious nor uncommon. There are many people who know it, but the level is different. However, the threshold of this way of appraising people is low and the roof is high. High, it is easy to get started but difficult to become good at it. There are many superficial, vulgar and self-righteous fortune tellers in the world. They make mistakes for themselves and others without telling others. There are even more swindlers and liars who make a living by making false promises. It is really sad and hateful. My good nephew does not learn this way. Very good, if you don’t learn it, then you don’t believe it, and there is no need to ask again.”
Qingshi bowed and clasped his fists in salute: "Yes! Thank you so much, uncle, for your teaching!"
At this point, Jian Ruochen has answered Qingshi's first question.
Qingshi took out a jar of his refined tea and said, "Uncle, my nephew made some homemade green tea in his spare time. If you don't mind, I will make a pot for you to taste."
"My good nephew can also make tea?" Jian Ruochen said in surprise, "It must be good, I want to taste it."
Qingshi brewed a pot and poured a cup for Jian Ruochen. Jian Ruochen tasted it and said happily: "It is indeed a good tea. My nephew is a good craftsman! I wonder what the name of this tea is?"
Qingshi hadn't named the tea yet, but when Jian Ruochen asked about it, he had an idea and said, "This is called Bamboo Leaf Green."
"Green bamboo leaves?" Jian Ruochen saw that the tea was green and clear, and the tea leaves were hanging in the water like bamboo leaves. He nodded and said, "Yeah! What a good tea, what a good name."
Seeing that Jian Ruochen liked it, Qingshi gave this jar to him. Green tea is not easy to preserve, but it stays fresh for a long time when stored in high-grade storage containers. Jian Ruochen originally loved tea, so he was very happy.
