Shang Lu met Tao'er and Tong Zhihuan very few times, and knew little about them. He only knew that Tong Zhihuan was his disciple.
The two of them came back from time to time.
Occasionally I would come back for a couple of days, but I would leave soon after.
The old Taoist priest said: "I heard from Dr. Tong that there is not much to worry about here. Staying for a long time will only increase sadness. It is good to come back once in a while."
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment after hearing this. He nodded slightly and sighed.
"Counting the years, he is now an old man." Chen Changsheng said.
The old Taoist priest nodded and said: "The last time I saw him, his hair was white and his speech was a little hoarse. He is old."
"There will eventually come a time." Chen Changsheng said.
The old Taoist priest also agreed with this sentence and said: "Everyone has a life span. Birth, aging, illness and death are normal. This is natural and the principle of life."
When Master Mu heard this, he agreed and said, "What the Taoist Master said is very true. You should relax your mind."
He has an optimistic attitude, which coincides with him.
Chen Changsheng looked at the old Taoist priest and asked, "Listening to you, why do you always seem like you don't want to live?"
Mu Jushi was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes immediately fell on the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest smiled helplessly, lowered his head and said, "I can't hide it from you sir."
He also knew that he should have died long ago.
Chen Changsheng looked at him and said, "Are you still dissatisfied with the blessing God has given you?"
"dislike."
The old Taoist priest spoke bluntly and said: "There is no use in living for so many more years. Staying on this mountain is nothing more than trying to be pure in your old age, but what is the purest? Of course, death is the purest."
He sighed softly, but seemed a little helpless.
This was the first time Mu Jushi heard such words. He was slightly startled and asked, "Taoist master, why is this? You are living well, why are you talking about death?"
Chen Changsheng smiled, looked at him and said: "You don't understand him. He has been used to everything in his life. Now that he is old, he feels that nothing is interesting anymore. The more boring he is, the less he wants to live. When he gets old, he doesn't want to live anymore. Such."
Mu Jushi didn't understand at all. He shook his head and said: "It's not me who said that if you practice cultivation, you don't have to be so transparent. Taoist priest, you may be thinking too much. This is not a good thing. .”
"It's a good thing for him." Chen Changsheng smiled.
The old Taoist priest did not refute. He stroked his beard, smiled, and nodded: "Sir, you are right. If I hadn't been thinking about something in my heart, I would have gone long ago."
"What are you thinking about?" Mu Jushi asked curiously.
The old Taoist priest thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I can't explain it. I always feel that there is something lacking. What is the specific reason, but I can't explain it."
He looked at Chen Changsheng and asked, "Mr. Chen probably understands this feeling."
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "Chen is not a person who wants to die, so how can I understand."
The old Taoist priest smiled, nodded and said, "That's right."
A person will always have things he wants to do throughout his life in this world.
Today's old Taoist priests were once Phytophaga.
He fell into the mud, got up from the mud, and sat on the throne in a daze, becoming the emperor of Xixiao.
For him, he has experienced everything that a mortal can experience without exception. This is a good thing, but it is also sad.
Now, he is in this mountain, concentrating on Taoism.
It's not because he has his heart set on the Tao, but because he doesn't know what else he can do.
It seems that I am no longer interested in anything in the world.
Vaguely, it seemed that he could do many things, but after he actually set out, he felt bored again. This was very confusing, but it was a true portrayal of him.
It's like a child who wants to eat the candies on the street, but when he grows up, he finds the candies tasteless and even tastes bad, so he won't eat them again.
That's why it's sad.
Mu Jushi thought about it, and he suddenly realized that he couldn't understand what the two people were talking about.
It was probably because he didn't know much about the Taoist priest's past.
Well, it should be so.
Mu Jushi asked: "The Taoist priest seems to have never mentioned anything in the past to me."
The old Taoist priest was stunned after hearing this, but then he smiled and said: "The old Taoist has no past."
"hold head high?"
Mu Jushi said: "The Taoist priest doesn't want to mention it."
The old Taoist priest smiled and said: "It happened a long time ago, what's the point of mentioning it? Looking back on his youth, Mu Jushi also doesn't want to mention it."
"I was..."
In the middle of his words, Mu Jushi turned into a sigh and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't mention it, it doesn't matter if you don't mention it."
Chen Changsheng glanced at the old Taoist priest, and then at the 'Wood Master'.
He couldn't help but find it interesting.
Are things in this world such coincidences?
Chen Changsheng, however, did not believe that such a coincidence could happen.
It seemed that God's will allowed these two people to meet each other.
Chen Changsheng didn't say anything, and then started talking about other things.
As for Mu Jushi, he didn't stay long. Finally, he donated some money for incense and went down the mountain.
He was dressed very simply, with a pair of straw sandals on his feet, no different from the ordinary people in this community.
This is very hard to believe.
Chen Changsheng looked at the leaving figure of the Mu Jushi and couldn't help but said: "He is very different from what Chen expected..."
The old Taoist priest looked at him and asked, "Sir, do you recognize Master Mu?"
"You didn't recognize it?"
The old Taoist priest shook his head, and then stared at Mu Jushi's back for a long time.
He still couldn't recall anything.
I just feel weird.
If Mr. Chen said this, then this person must be related to him.
Who is the one?
Phytolacca can't figure it out.
No, now he can no longer be called Phytolacca, but Taoist Fuyun, an old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest asked: "Is he an old friend?"
Chen Changsheng glanced at him and was about to speak, but he changed his words and said with a smile: "Yes... I won't tell you."
Having said that, it is not a fun thing.
When the old Taoist saw Mr. Chen with a smile on his face, he couldn't help but smile.
But then he was a little stunned and said: "Sir, your heart seems to be much more open than before."
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "People and things are always helpless, but some old pain will always be healed, some are good and some are bad, some are bad and some are good."
The old Taoist priest nodded and said with a smile: "Congratulations, sir."
Chen Changsheng stood up and said, "No more chatting. I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with dinner when I get back. If there is a next time, Chen will chat with you again."
"I'll see you off Mr. Chen."
Chen Changsheng waved his hand, but didn't ask him to give it away.
He swaggered down the mountain.
Chen Changsheng's foot strength was pretty good, and he met Layman Namu at the foot of the mountain.
When Mu Jushi saw Chen Changsheng catching up with him, he couldn't help laughing and said, "I think Mr. Lai has been climbing mountains a lot."
Chen Changsheng thought for a while and said, "I used to walk a lot in the early years, but now I don't like to move much. Unlike you, you are someone who walked down the mountain."
"hold head high?"
Mu Jushi was slightly startled.
Then he saw Chen Changsheng patting his shoulder, smiling at him and walking forward.
Mu Jushi came back to his senses and looked at this man's figure, but he frowned slightly.
