Everyone knows that when we see you after a long journey, we will see each other again. After the banquet, everyone returns home. It is hard to say how many people can remember the unscrupulous words they talked about when the wine was drunk and their ears were hot. They wanted to go up to the blue sky to embrace the moon, and thought about their endless lifespan. But After two days of rest, most of them forgot all about it and started running around again, pursuing the money that Zuili looked down on and discarded like tatters.
In the end, everyone has his own scriptures and it is difficult to read them. In the end, everyone has his own money and it is difficult to make money.
Things are different in the world, but they are generally the same.
After all, Nangong Mountain is located in the north of Tianxia. Compared with the other two countries on the west road, the sky warms up faster. When the winter snow is falling and the weather is deserted, perhaps the thick snow and ice can block your footsteps, allowing you to sit by the fire with peace of mind, squint your eyes and take a nap. Before you know it, winter is coming, and when the sky becomes warmer At this time of year, whether it is the beasts in the mountains or the young and old in the city, it is very difficult to stop them from walking out of the courtyard one after another to take a look at the scene of early spring. It is a beautiful thing no matter what.
"Other people don't know, but you don't know the twists and turns here?" The old woodcutter packed up his luggage today. In fact, he only had a package the size of ten fists. He sharpened his hatchet and old ax and sat down on the original wicker chair. , smiled at Wu Shuang in Tsing Yi who looked slightly dissatisfied at the side, "Tsing Yi is better looking, with white clothes and purple aura, he doesn't look like a swordsman, but like a frost that has been scalded with boiling water to knock down Luosu. It's so unimpressive. , or blue and purple are the best contrast. It seems that in this retreat, in addition to breaking into the five realms, even the vision is much better than before. In the future, I will be less worried when I propose marriage and marry a wife."
Wu Shuang wiped away the drink from the corner of her mouth, her spirits were waning and she was unhappy, "If the day comes, I won't invite Old Niubi."
Wu Shuang tried hard to persuade him for a few days, and even dug out dozens of jars of wine that he had secretly accumulated in the mountains. He gritted his teeth and reluctantly gave it to the old woodcutter, but he could only keep it for a few more days, and still planned to Go down the mountain and look for the so-called opportunity. Wu Shuang sneered at this, saying that if the old woodcutter reached such a state, there would probably be no chance to help a master in the fifth realm to transcend the five realms smoothly and stand on an equal footing with the mountains. This has never happened in ancient times, and it may not happen in the future. If it is possible, then why go down the mountain? It is better to enlighten the Tao in the mountains and at least end up in peace and quiet.
On weekdays, Wu Shuang absolutely did not want to force this lazy man with a heavy drinking capacity to stay here. In addition to having a lot of drinks every day, he also had to have a dirty ear. He heard the old man's sarcasm all day long, and because of his previous Over the past few years, there have been so many credit debts that I have to face them with a smile. But Wu Shuang is Wu Shuang after all, and he knows that his kindness must be repaid. At least the woodcutter guarded the empty mountain gate for him for a long time, and also helped Nangong Mountain to block the waves and raise troops to punish him. No matter what, if he really wants to let the old man go home I went, but I always felt quite uncomfortable.
It is difficult to practice the Tao, and it is even more difficult to break through the five realms and see the vastness of the world again.
It is often said that when cultivating one's mind, in addition to improving one's realm, one's state of mind is the most important thing. Therefore, those who can cultivate to extremely high states often have a stronger state of mind and clearer thoughts. They have never let worldly things influence their minds, and often they are If you really have nothing to do with the world, you can clearly see many things in the world. Only a few people, even if they enter the fifth realm or the realm above the fifth realm, they often don't have a moment of leisure, and they are still shouting and killing everywhere. Start a war.
On the contrary, the old woodcutter was stunned, and said with a smile to himself, "Invitation or not, what does it have to do with me? I guess you have also forgotten, what is this cultivation path that almost everyone in the five realms has walked today? What’s going on, no wonder you look down upon him, after all, he is a big shot who has found a new way to carve out a new path, and when he sees mediocre people like me, he will probably sneer at me.”
Qingyi Wu Shuang was confused when she heard this, and then she calmed down and thought about it for a while, rarely sighing.
"You are a wise boy and know how to speak according to my state of mind. If it were the time to talk to me just now, you would advise me to change my mind and be able to connect with that old cow-nosed mind as soon as possible. Only by transcending this situation can I touch my bad luck. Although I don't see it now If I can use the five-level magical power at will, I may not be able to defeat you, but I will definitely not have any close friendship in the future." The old woodcutter rarely looked serious, looked at Wu Shuang beside him, and laughed at himself, "Actually, even if You shouldn’t have close friendships. In the end, I will still be the one who suffers.
In the final analysis, I owe half of Feilaifeng's debt. If there is a falling out and I suffer a loss, it would be my lack of consideration in doing things. "
And in this cultivation, it is a path that almost everyone must take. Although there have been many people who have reached the fifth realm through this method since ancient times, there are even more people who are blocked before the five realms because of this. If there is even the slightest difference, , it is difficult to see the five realms in a lifetime without mentioning them, and most likely they will collapse and fall into the realm, and it will be difficult to see that towering high pass again.
"That being the case, the old Niubi is really quite different from the senior. Even though they keep all the old stories in mind, in the end it is clear that they are two people with very different temperaments. However, the junior always feels that the temperaments of the two are always vaguely different. There are some similarities between them, so much so that they feel particularly comfortable when they get along." Wu Shuang frowned, then shrugged and smiled, tilting her head to look at the old woodcutter, "The survival of people in the world is a matter of good fortune. But this path of cultivation is about transforming one's own body into the word "creation". Not to mention life and death, flesh and blood, at least it is about transforming into a person with the same experience and different thoughts, so that he can see the breadth of the heaven and earth, and taste the mystery of the universe. In my opinion, it is no less than having a third eye opened in the forehead, and seeing everything in the world with a different perspective and state of mind than usual, it is really a wonderful thing."
"It's better to avoid it. We won't do anything where we will suffer losses, and we won't be embarrassed to do anything where we take advantage." The woodcutter laughed happily and glanced sideways at Wu Shuang, who had a slightly stiff-faced face. The latter said this by mistake. , it was rare to feel depressed, but the old man felt a little relieved at the moment. He waved his hand and teased, "I don't want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but I want to die in the same year, the same month and the same day. It's not appropriate to live dozens or hundreds of years in vain."
When he was coming down the mountain, the old man patted his forehead and handed Wu Shuang a letter. It was baked with fine bamboo. The words in the letter were all freehand and there was no nomination. Instead, there was a yin and yang seal printed on it. Look. It's very particular.
Wu Shuang grinned after hearing this.
"Just by fussing over things like this, I feel so convinced that I wish I could become your brother."
I was alone when I came and I was alone when I left, but I never asked for any favors from Wu Shuang.
There is no better friendship between gentlemen than this.
The old man bluntly said that this slip was a gift from Li Baoyu. Unfortunately, he was very old now. If he forgot it for a moment, it might take him a long time to remember it. Therefore, before leaving now, he put this book in the package. The slips of writing dated back a year or two were dug out and presented to Wu Shuang.
There was no need for Wu Shuang to see him off, and Wen Yu had not yet left the customs. The woodcutter picked up the hatchet and broken ax alone, and carried the parcel down the mountain alone.
There is no one in the mountain, but Wen Yu is still in retreat, and has not sorted out all the trivial things in his mind. For a time, except for the smell of wet earth in the spring breeze and the fragrance of clouds and flowers in the mountains, the top of Nangong Mountain is very pure. There was no one else around. Wu Shuang knelt down and simply sat on the ground. Only then did he realize that there was already a slight moss on the stone steps. He slowly climbed up to the top of the stone steps. The new and light green color was quite eye-catching.
According to what is said in the slips, Li Baoyu, the former Taoist leader, probably only has a few years left to live. All his thoughts and thoughts can only be passed on to that ignorant young man along with all his enlightenments throughout his life and the mantle of the Taoist sect. Disciple, although the latter is still unaware of world affairs, he is still much better than before. He expected that within two years, he would be able to walk down the mountain.
Wu Shuang once asked the old man where he planned to go for a stroll. The latter thought for a while and said that he liked Bei Yanze very much. However, nowadays, he is not lucky enough to have many magical powers and has to rely on all his strength to hurt the enemy. It is really difficult to make a decision. Maybe in the future I want to go to Beiyanze, but definitely not now. If I have to ask where I want to go, I would probably go to a place with magnificent mountains and rivers and have a look. No matter what, I am lucky enough to come here and learn from the old man. Niubi imprisoned himself in the mountains all day long, playing with Taoist scriptures and annotations, teaching vocations and training, and he was really wasting his good years.
Wu Shuang in green clothes stood on the mountain road and saw the old man walking five or six feet away in one step. He seemed to be like a forest rabbit returning to the bush or a crossing bird returning south. He knew that he had been guarding the mountain for a year or two, which really depressed this old man with an out-of-touch temperament. It was so bad that his temples were all white. Now when he went down the mountain, his steps were as light as a child's. He immediately shook his head and smiled bitterly. He waited until his body was no longer visible before unfolding the slip.
After all, not everyone in the world has such miraculous objects as the Seven Wonders of Buddhism. Ordinary practitioners weighing two spiritual treasures in their hands will definitely not provoke a critical situation such as the collaboration of figures from the four realms.
The letter also said that Wu Shuang had long guessed that he might not follow the old path of cultivators all over the world. A person like him who seemed lazy, careless and making jokes would hardly care about anything on the surface, but in fact he was very troubled. He is extremely arrogant, and although he has never shown off to others, he is so high-spirited that he is definitely not willing to follow the crowd, let alone want to reincarnate a swordsman who looks the same as himself for no reason.
When she saw this, Wu Shuang raised her eyebrows, feeling a little surprised.
The old Taoist has always had a steady temperament. For example, the old story of Wu Shuang fighting Wu Jue alone in the past ten years is still mentioned frequently by the old Taoist. He is very annoyed by Wu Shuang's behavior. Now, even in his twilight years, his thoughts are no longer bright. If you are careful, you may not be able to relax and let yourself go down the mountain and wander around the world. Unless you have already touched the threshold of the four realms, you can go anywhere in the world. There is no need to bypass the five extremes or a very small number of the four realms. Too much worry.
However, this kind of spiritual path is very suitable for those who practice. Asking questions, in fact, it is most likely to make mistakes if you work behind closed doors, and you may go astray. There is such a bronze mirror that can help you see yourself and the world. It's quite a blessing.
Living in the mountains, I have never eaten roast chicken or drank strong liquor for many years.
For no reason, Wu Shuang suddenly remembered the old woodcutter's extremely ungraceful eagerness when eating meat and drinking. He wished that his mouth would be full of oil and his beard would be full of wine. He scratched his head and laughed silently.
