"Sorry to trouble you, Ha Ayun, haha." Yu Xiaolong said politely.
"Oh, why are we talking about this? It's true. After you take these medicines, you can meditate and recover." Xie Tianyun took out a dozen packages of medicines.
After saying that, he went out, leaving Yu Xiaolong alone.
Looking at a lot of things, Yu Xiaolong frowned, helplessly took them one by one, then meditated and began to regulate.
After two months of conditioning in the Qiankun Pool, Yu Xiaolong's veins were best nourished. Every defect in the veins has been completely repaired. The core of the veins, as the lifeblood of the practitioner, is also greatly maintained.
It's like a person who hasn't bathed for a year. After suddenly being thoroughly washed, the feeling of relief all over the body can't be described in words.
"Jingmai Jue" says that if the pulse is deficient, the path will be insufficient, and if the path is insufficient, life will be in danger. The essence of pulse is precious.
Yu Xiaolong tried to activate his true energy. As soon as he touched it, the true energy was like a faucet suddenly opened, and a steady stream of true energy quickly penetrated all the veins.
Yu Xiaolong did not dare to use it too much, and immediately suppressed the expansion of the true energy, causing it to flow slowly and gradually.
This feeling is like taking a sip of an ice-cold drink in the dog days of summer. From top to bottom, the path to where you go is clear and clear.
After experiencing many battles, Yu Xiaolong knew deeply that the burst of veins was at that moment. If he mastered it well, he could achieve twice the result with half the effort.
What exactly is spiritual practice and what is Taoism? Tao, what exactly is it?
Yu Xiaolong quietly felt the pleasure brought by the Qi, and he deeply understood the meaning of Taoism.
"Tao Yi" clearly states that Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao. Famous, very famous. Tao is originally nameless, but people try to name it Tao. When it is nameless, people can name it endless things.
The Tao requires enlightenment, and only by thoroughly understanding its connotation can it be considered the first step into the Tao. "Maoshan Daoyi" says: "There is always a desire to observe its orifices, but there is always no desire to observe its wonders."
When observing the Tao, there is desire. Since there is desire, it is to observe the Tao with one's own understanding and knowledge. However, human knowledge is limited, and one can only observe the Tao based on one's own knowledge and insights, not the Tao itself.
But if a person often has no desire to observe the Tao, there will be no paranoia, no resistance, only tolerance and acceptance. The Tao will merge into the observer's body and mind, or the observer's body and mind will merge into the Tao, that is, become one and the same as the Tao. Being united with the Tao means enlightenment.
Enlightenment is not a vague ideological understanding, it is real and visible, and seeing one's nature is the first witness to enlightenment.
Chapter 4 of the "Tao Te Ching" says: When the Tao rushes into use, it may not be full. Yuanxi is like the origin of all things. Resolve its confusion, harmonize with its light, and be the same as its dust. It may be as clear as it is. I don’t know whose son is the first of Emperor Xiang.
Chapter 25 also says: There are things mixed into the innate world. Being lonely, independent and unchanging, traveling without peril, she can be the mother of the world. I don't know its name, so I call it Dao. Strong is called big. The big day is called passing, the passing day is said to be far away, and the far away day is called reverse. Therefore, the Tao is great, the sky is great, the earth is great, and humans are also great. There are great things in the domain, but people live in one of them. Man follows the earth, earth follows heaven, heaven follows Tao, and Tao follows nature.
Yu Xiaolong is now at the seventh level of the Beginner's Path and has entered the final step into the world of cultivation. Sun Renyi once said that only by entering enlightenment can one be considered a true practitioner. That is the first step.
Yu Xiaolong's current situation is the most critical period. He needs to understand the meaning of enlightenment before he can step into the ranks of enlightenment.
"Zhuangzi" said that man and all things come from the same Tao, but man and all things are different. Only those who have attained the Tao can understand the Tao.
The "Tao Te Ching" says that when humans and heaven and earth become one, they have true destiny. When humans and all things become one, there is compassion. When people and everything become one, there will be no worries.
To realize the Tao is to understand the mind. There is the Tao in the heart, and there is the heart in the Tao.
Yu Xiaolong put aside all distracting thoughts and let everything gradually become quiet. He was the only one in the world.
He closed his eyes slightly, breathed steadily, and slowly released his Qi.
Suddenly, Yu Xiaolong appeared in a vast white snowfield.
Yu Xiaolong looked around blankly. There was no second object in the endless white snow. It was as flat as a mirror and there was not a single footprint.
He stood there not daring to move, unwilling to move, unable to bear to take a step and leave footprints.
"How do you feel about the scenery?" came a voice from behind.
Yu Xiaolong trembled with fright, but he did not look back. He looked into the distance and said quietly: "There is only snow."
"I love the clear snow in the east mountains the most, and the silvery mountains in the soft red light."
The voice sighed: "Appreciating snow is a very good thing. It's white inside and there is snow in the snow."
"What is this place?" Yu Xiaolong asked.
"Haha... I wonder why you came here?" A figure turned to his side and stood side by side with him.
Yu Xiaolong looked at him. He was an old man. Except for his face and hands, everything else was white, just like the snow all over the world, white and flawless.
"I don't know why I came here. I was practicing...I ended up here before I knew it." Yu Xiaolong answered honestly.
"You have no desire in your heart, why are you here? There is no scenery in your eyes, only white snow." The old man said slowly while looking ahead.
"Uh... isn't this snow?" Yu Xiaolong looked ahead in surprise.
"Do you only see snow?" The old man kept looking straight ahead.
When he asked, Yu Xiaolong didn't dare to speak.
He looked at the endless snow around him, and saw nothing else.
"Look, what a beautiful scenery! It's white with red, and red with green. There's no other place in the world that's so beautiful! I'll stay here for the rest of my life!" the old man said excitedly.
"What will your life be like here?" Yu Xiaolong looked at him doubtfully.
"I will always be happy! One year of life will be a year of happiness, a hundred years of life will be a hundred years of happiness, and the same is true for a thousand years. Isn't it a good thing to live a happy life?" the old man said with a smile.
"Old man, why are you here?" Yu Xiaolong looked at him.
"I think I am right here. This place is in my heart. I can come at any time, but I have never left." The old man put his hands behind his back with a chivalrous look.
"Is it so nice here?" Yu Xiaolong looked around.
"Isn't it good here?" the old man asked.
"There is nothing here, only snow." Yu Xiaolong scratched his head.
"You can't see it, but there is everything here. How broad your heart is, how big this place is. How can there be nothing in such a big place?" said the old man.
"Uh...I can't see the edge." Yu Xiaolong looked seriously into the distance.
"No, you can see it." The old man shook his head.
"I can indeed see... it's as endless as there is no end." Yu Xiaolong nodded affirmatively.
"Haha... is it true? Can you take a step and try?" the old man said with a smile.
Yu Xiaolong looked at him and took a step forward. Before his feet even touched the ground, he was blocked by an invisible barrier.
He was startled, stretched out his hand to test, and saw an invisible wall right in front of him.
"Ah?" Yu Xiaolong didn't expect it to be like this: "And... a glass?"
"Haha, young man, that is your state of mind." The old man said with a smile.
"My state of mind blocks me? I can only take... one step?" Yu Xiaolong blinked.
